Computer error messages
In Japan, they have replaced the impersonal and unhelpful Microsoft error messages with Haiku poetry messages. They are used to communicate a timeless message, often achieving a wistful, yearning and powerful insight through extreme brevity. Here are 16 actual error messages from Japan.
The Web site you seek
Cannot be located, but
Countless more exist.Chaos reigns within.
Reflect, repent, and reboot.
Order shall return.Program aborting:
Close all that you have worked on.
You ask far too much.Windows NT crashed.
I am the Blue Screen of Death.
No one hears your screams.Yesterday it worked.
Today it is not working.
Windows is like that.Your file was so big.
It might be very useful.
But now it is gone.Stay the patient course.
Of little worth is your ire.
The network is down.A crash reduces
Your expensive computer
To a simple stone.Three things are certain:
Death, taxes and lost data.
Guess which has occurred.You step in the stream,
But the water has moved on.
This page is not here.Out of memory.
We wish to hold the whole sky,
But we never will.Having been erased,
The document you're seeking
Must now be retyped.Serious error.
All shortcuts have disappeared.
Screen. Mind. Both are blank.Isn't that better than "your computer has performed an illegal operation" ?

Un vispaabaa dazhu haiku no kaadreiz apkaartklejojushaa teksta truukst:
The Tao that is seen Is not the true Tao-until You bring fresh toner.
First snow, then silence. This thousand-dollar screen dies So beautifully.
Rather than a beep Or a rude error message, These words: "File not found."
With searching comes loss and the presence of absence: "My Novel" not found.

Hoo, un pamekleejoties pa netu atradu veel dazhus (iespeejams, ka pashdarbnieku pievienotus):
Login incorrect. Only perfect spellers may enter this system.
Everything is gone; Your life's work has been destroyed. Squeeze trigger (yes/no)?
Seeing my great fault Through darkening blue windows I begin again.
The code was willing, It considered your request, But the chips were weak.
Printer not ready. Could be a fatal error. Have a pen handy?
Errors have occurred. We won't tell you where or why. Lazy programmers.
Server's poor response Not quick enough for browser. Timed out, plum blossom.
This site has been moved. We'd tell you where, but then we'd have to delete you.

vienīgā problēma - ja tev patiesi gadīsies, ka mēnešiem rakstītais worda dokuments būs pazudis, tad šāda haiku liksies kā datora ņirgāšanās, kas, atkārtojoties vairākas reizes, vairāk nekā ^bezpersoniskie^ ziņojumi liks izlidināt kompi pa logu
