Regex failures in the wild!

Not really a LabVIEW problem, but in the breakpoint, everything goes! 😄 (There are a few regex experts her after all...).

 

I was browsing the video-on-demand section on Verizon FIOS and it seems that some genius programmer had the bright idea to globally replace the word "stereo" with "Dolby 5.1". 😄

 

Product placement gone wrong?

 

An interesting side effect is that the word "stereotypes" got changed to "Dolby 5.1types". Hilarious!

CLBUTTIC!-  I wonder how you would say that in Chineese?

Those of us in the various commonwealth realms get quite a lot of word filtering issues.

One over here in Aus is a forum which censors out a certain three letter word in the middle of the word "documet", by replacing it with asterisks.

That should have read "document".

I guessed that, seeing as the forum would have spelled it "docu***t".  Can't have children seeing that three-letter word can we?

NIgel has flown the coop. (on a site hosted by a company named after a rare earth metal)

No No No, I don't have any employment history with our favorite corporation!
