THIS forum times out or...
The forum pages often do not load well or successfully; either the main or especially open a specific posting. Gives "not working right now" or "timed out". Sometimes, if go back to main, refresh & try again, wil open fine, not always. Usually, I don't wait for the fail, justquit waiting for it to load, close & try again. Sometimes I just wait a few minutes & try again. Maybe most of the time this doesn't occur. But sure a nuisance when it does❗ Btw, ALL other sites & pages are fine, it's exclusively this forum doing it Cheers, Drew

File Naming Conventions and Best Practices
Working through long overdue digital housekeeping, I am questioning my file naming habits. Is there any official Microsoft documention on file naming best practices? Are there unconsidered implications for interoperability with other operating systems, file systems, indexing and database services, and user experiences? A few example questions I have are: (i) should spaces be avoided?, (ii) what are best practices for including document effective dates?, (iii) should file names be as short as possible?
Do you find yourself talking directly to your computer? 🤨
I have a tendency to talk to my computer. May sound a bit daft! 🤨 If I am under pressure for whatever reason, or I am searching for a reference and cannot find it, I talk AT my computer - most likely with exasperation that anything else; not that this helps me to find the resource any quicker though. If I have the radio on in the background and the news is being broadcasted, I most definitely voice my opinion on the subject matter to my computer (which thankfully remains silent - unless Narrator is switched on). 😲 Then that becomes a whole different ball game if I am working on a Word document. 🤣 Has being on lockdown changed your behaviour towards your computer? If we have a more extended lockdown and have to work from home for a prolonged period of time, will this influence/change our working behaviours? Your PoV please 😀 Keep well.

Do you leave your computer on overnight?
Hello One of my colleagues mentioned to me that she leaves her desktop computer on throughout the night. I realise that after 30 minutes or so (or whatever time you choose) the device goes to 'sleep'. I have never left my computer on all night - probably a habit of mine. So, I am left wondering whether contributors do leave their devices switched on throughout the night? 🤔. Views anyone?
