Unit193jrgifford: FSF seems crazy most of the time anyway (RE: Blogpost)00:02
Unit193Maybe I should have tried a greeting first though00:02
jrgiffordUnit193: Oh yeah, you got that right. ;)00:02
jrgifford(sorry, that comment out of the blue made me stop and think for a second. ;))00:03
Unit193I really see how it would. But man alive do they seem a bit.... Off the wall to speak nicely00:03
jrgiffordAgreed.00:04
Unit193I wasn't fully sure how you might react since you're on their ML, but I figured with your comment it would be fine00:04
jrgiffordI joined their mailing back in '08.00:05
jrgiffordFor about 30 minutes, I was this huge "GO FSF! GNU ALL DA WAY DUDE" fanatic.00:05

BiosElementHowdy03:36
Derath-Srvrzzzzzzzzzzzzzz05:11
Unit193Hey, what's going on?05:11
Derath-SrvrNot much... at work and alone lol05:12
Unit193Wow... Doesn't sound fun (partly because of time) What are you babysitting?05:13
Derath-Srvrlol a crapload of servers... and doing some software upgrades, but this is my normal shift for the time being ;)05:13
Unit193Oh. I could like the time of night, just the no people to make fun of might be a tad hard (really so if they turned off the lights)05:14
Derath-Srvrlol05:15
Derath-SrvrPretty much sums it up...05:15
Derath-Srvrbut it does make it easier to get stuff done as well05:15
Unit193Until some creeper from IRC talks to you :P05:16
Derath-Srvrlol05:16
Derath-SrvrSomething like that05:16
Derath-Srvrsigh, also feel bad for ditching everyone at OLF... I REALLY wasn't feeling good at the afterparty05:18
BiosElementHeh05:18
BiosElementI didn't even go to OLF. >.>05:18
BiosElementWas after a 70 hour week of work, Islept the entire day05:18
Derath-Srvrlol05:18
Unit193I was out of state05:18
Derath-SrvrWas wondering where you were at Bios...05:19
Derath-SrvrI did finally get to meet Canth though05:19
BiosElementI 'really' wanted to go, but ugh, I was dying heh05:19
BiosElementReminds me, anyone have any thoughts on this? Getting a new video card, mostly just for minecraft. >.> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E1681410294105:20
Unit193I also really wanted to go as it would have been first OLF05:21
Derath-SrvrWill have to look at the vid card later Bios... working on a client's Live environment atm05:21
BiosElementHeh that's fine Derath-Srvr05:22
Derath-Srvrbtw, two things... 1: I HATE Win's UAC! and 2: I got to preview Win8... OMG!05:23
BiosElementReminds me, if anyone is looking for a sysadmin job, I know of a couple and we're pretty desperate. >.>05:25
Derath-Srvrlol Almost the same (just not desperate lol)05:27
Derath-SrvrWe have a good number of openings...05:27
BiosElement3 admin + 1k servers = fun tech support05:27
Derath-Srvrlol05:28
BiosElementIronically we're still known for our awesome support. >.>05:28
Derath-SrvrWe're getting there... hard to maintain all the installs/upgrades that Sales is giving us...05:32
Derath-SrvrAnd then to maintain current customer base05:32
BiosElementHeh, we're about at critical when it comes to sales vs support05:32
Derath-Srvrbtw... Win8 is going to look like that new Win Mobile phone platform...05:33
BiosElementlolololol05:33
BiosElementMicrosoft thinks the're Android apparently05:33
Derath-Srvrtradition desktop won't be used much... at least that's how it appears on the recent dev version...05:33
BiosElementKDE4 anyone? >.>05:33
Derath-SrvrGearing up for tablet/slate type systems... screw the desktop/laptop users... you're supposed to be on a touchscreen now05:34
BiosElementHeh, Windows Vista round 205:35
BiosElementSilly me thinking they'd learned their lesson05:35
* Derath-Srvr shrugs05:36
Derath-SrvrThey did improve the TaskManager... lol more useful info on each tab...05:36
Derath-Srvrno need to go to other tabs to see the overall performance when looking at Tasks05:36
Derath-SrvrAnd no need to hit another button/check box and admin annoyance to see all processes05:37
BiosElementHmmm05:39
Derath-SrvrBut the main UI is the same as that new phone OS they are pushing... to me, it look like an ADD's worst nightmare for not getting ANYTHING done because of all the movement/updates/etc...05:39
BiosElementHandy Hint05:39
BiosElementDon't rant at the person helping you and expect to get a refund05:39
Derath-Srvrlol05:39
Derath-SrvrYep... I've been on the CS side of that... that's why I never act out against the CS reps I deal with05:40
BiosElementOh, and don't rant about no support when you change the passwords to lock us out.05:40
BiosElementDo that and you'll be lucky to be able to login once we fix it. >.>05:40
BiosElementAnd he's using a dev build of bukkit....05:42
BiosElementAs in, incomplete. And wonders why it crashes05:42
* BiosElement sighs05:42
Derath-Srvrlol05:43
BiosElementThankfully we're not too stupid refund wise. If you break it, we're not refunding you. >.>05:44
Derath-SrvrThere is one thing about this shift I am excited for... I can finally play DDO on the weekend again... 6+ hours a night that I can DDO without too much worry...05:47
Derath-SrvrBetter than only a chance of ~2 hours a weekend total05:47
BiosElementAhaha Yayy05:48
Derath-Srvrbrb, need a snack...05:48
Derath-Srvrback05:50
Cheri703I seem to get a lot of people whose hard drives are failing...05:56
* Cheri703 is getting fairly decent at ddrescue :/05:57
Derath-Srvrlol05:57
Cheri703once I start having a bit of extra money, I might just stock up on a few to have on hand...05:58
Derath-SrvrNot a bad idea...06:08
