The Requested Operation Requires Elevation

This response in Windows terminal:

The requested operation requires elevation.

🤨 What in bleating sheep does that mean?

Elevation? 🤔

Of what?

Spirit? Cholesterol?

Was I trying to open a gateway to the underworld via syntax? Hm.

Indeed, it means the execution needs administrator privilege. But the phrasing is utterly woolgathering. 🐏

Security Concerns

They might claim, We made it that way so it would confuse the hacker.

No, Karen. It made my eyebrows went up. Karen, hacker means the person hacks things, even your woolgathering sentence. With a butter knife, because an axe will be excessive. Hacker won't scope the "hacking". I hack, thus I scope myself to Rust. That's barmy. Rust has many things in it, which one? Is it the oxidation?

👀

Karen? Or was it Barry? 🤔

Oh well. 🤷

My phrasing would be:

The command needs administrator role. I dare you to activate it through script. Do you accept? Oh, you do?

Or a rare breed of civilised Unix:

Access denied: please run as administrator.

Civilised, because of the "please" and the explanation. No such entity is recognised in Unix. It's like a drill sergeant says woogie boogie bababa and smiles at us. That should mean a procession toward 1,000 push-ups ceremony. Quite right, with the marching band.

Or proper Unix:

Access denied.

Why?

Guess, mortal.

Or powdered wig:

Execution of the entered instruction necessitates administrator-level authority.

It's not hard, is it? We should understand it. Well, necessitate, I know, that necessitates at least three pints. Let's all use necessitate in regular conversation. It necessitates the "necessitate" when the pint count is almost four. Oh by golly, n-e-c-e-s-s-i-t-a-t-e.

Or even jiving:

No admin, no run.

Yes, mon. Hit the reggae! 🎷🪘

Or being indifferent:

Na.

What?

.

But since the caffeinated goblins rule the universe. 🤣

Brilliant. We, as gremlins, honour that.

Let's try that in a pub setting.

I 🐒	:	Mate, a pint.
Win-Bar	:	`The requested operation requires elevation.`
I 🐒	:	Alright. I will elevate my volume. MATE! A PINT! 📢
Win-Bar	:	`The requested operation requires elevation.`
I 🐒	:	🤔 Oh, 'ello, luv. A jar of beer, please? And a pint of salt would be wonderful.
Win-Bar	:	`Oh, 'ello, luv. A jar of beer, please? And a pint of salt would be wonderful.: The term 'Oh, 'ello, luv. A jar of beer, please? And a pint of salt would be wonderful.' is not recognized as a name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or executable program.` `Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.`
I 🐒	:	Uh. That's rather a loaded statement.

The Boy Who Wanted More... PDF

I was looking around for folktales from around the world. And, a-ha! That Dutch folktale, "The Boy Who Wanted More Cheese" — Klaas. So then I searched that on mobile, and this autocomplete appeared... 🤣 Most unexpected... Hm, now then, what have we here?

Chess: Offence Against Modern Defence: Hm Variation

I played white (offence) in 3 minutes Super Blitz on Lichess as Anonymous. Opening theory? Ignored. Material balance? Hm. In this game, as a drunk bard, my strategy was an alternating: Let's try this - Oh, well - Don't mind if I do! 🤦 It was hilarious at the end (22nd banter). 💥 I didn't realise I constructed a proper prison. Hm, alright, I did plot that. You can use your left and right arrows on your keyboard or use the mouse scroll to see the moves back and forth on the chessboard. But first, click the board.

VS Code Thinks atob() Is Deprecated - How to Fix

Actually, both atob() and btoa() . This Is Specifically in VS Code Or VSCode . Because if I said "... on VS Code", that would sound like I was physically standing on top of VS Code, like a skateboard. 🛹 😂 🤔 At the moment, it is a bug 🪲, until it is not 🔧, in their IntelliSense for JavaScript. I noticed it since few years behind. Indeed it is harmless . But since last week, when I opened my certain Node.js project (monolithic — frontend and backend in one project), I kept on noticing the struck through function, therefore, here's how to fix it. For your information, the JavaScript (ECMAScript) here is actual browser (client — frontend) language, not server-side or backend (Node.js). But also in this post, we'll see implementation in Node.js. 🤔🙂 This is deprecation notice for atob() : This is deprecation notice for btoa() : Fix: Attach Window Object For atob() window.atob() For btoa() window.btoa() Fixed. 👍 History The methods at...

Google Apps Script Shares a Global Namespace: Use Unique Function Names

Hi. 🙂 I experienced this in my Google Apps Script project. I thought each .gs file was isolated, nope . It's like embedding multiple .js files in an HTML . All script files are loaded into the same global context, as if they're one continuous script. For example, we have many .js files (without using type="module" ) in the HTML . Each script has this similarly named function, init : First script. For instance, it is defined in <script src="./js/firstScript.js"></script> : function init() { console.log("Log from first script."); } Then in the other script. Defined in <script src="./js/secondScript.js"></script> : function init() { console.log("Log from second script."); } Then calling that init function somewhere from another script file. Let's say from <script src="./js/main.js"></script> : init(); Depe...

Health: Stomach Ulcer and Food Poisoning Quick Treatment

First of all, I'm not a medical doctor. I have an engineering degree in low power electrical field and I am a web developer. 😶 But I do have lots of experiences handling these: stomach ulcer and food poisoning ; for myself and for other people around me. And of course, I have friends, colleagues, and family which are medical professionals. Mostly medical doctors. Let me share some of quick treatments for stomach ulcer and food poisoning . Stomach Ulcer: The Habit Sometimes, or most of the time, as we get older, we do not take meal with constant periodical cycle like while we were children or teens. But as I've noticed nowadays, teens also have that habit . Our human body can adapt, if you notice, to that kind of punishment . At first, it was probably really hurt, and as the time went by, we no longer feel the pain. It has multiple meanings: Our nerves ( nociceptors ) finally ignore the pain signal because we consciously and constantly pre...

Three Wishes

If a jinni (or genie) grants you three wishes, what would you wish? 🧞 I might guess something like generic infinite riches, maybe even world peace... Or perhaps exploiting the technicality (loophole). Like please grant me another x wishes , or better, another battalion of you , "you" being the jinni. How am I supposed to clone myself? , said the jinni. Unless the jinni stated the terms and conditions, we can surely find a cheeky way to get to the backdoor. And as for me, I might... ... ignore the jinni politely. 😂 As in, I thank thee for the generous offer, kind sir. Might I offer thee for a sugared roundel, nigh consumed, its orb defiled? 🤔 A half-eaten donut? First of all... It came from a metallic lamp. It is unwise to ask anything from vapour emanated from an antique. We could be passed out and delirious from the poisonous gas, and dreaming up whatever it shows us. The grants would act as "Continue to Faint, Thank You" ushe...
