[11:45] morning [11:58] morning [11:59] yes [12:00] Good morning [12:00] (Going out on a limb here. :) ) [12:00] it's not yesterday so we'll go with 'good' for now [12:10] rick_h_: Why are you such a grumpy pants? [12:10] because work sucks :P [12:10] and yesterday sucked, I'm still recovering [12:11] and I find grumpy is generally a good place to start out. Day can get better then heh [12:11] see, I just remembered it's a CHC day. Already looking up! [12:46] Just activated my phone on ting last night. In case anyone was interested. Signal at home is pretty good. [13:03] UnFixed: Awesome! glad to hear it! [13:03] I'm trying to justify getting an airrave. ;) [13:04] But $279 to fix Sprint's lack of coverage is a bit steep [13:10] I lvoe trying to figure out MySQL's broken-ass syntax [13:11] You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near [13:11] (something that should work) [13:13] heh [13:13] considering getting the home phone connect 2, since i got rid of my landline. [13:14] and it would just share minutes with my cellphone. [13:14] Yeah, if it works for you, I'd go for it [13:17] OK, MySQL needs to find a fire and promptly die in it [13:17] Want to know what my problem was? [13:18] one of the columns is named "desc" [13:18] guess what MySQL will treat as a command, no matter where it's located? [13:18] http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=50883 [13:57] brousch: BTW: Picked up Sins of a Solar Empire Trinity from Stardock on DVD [13:57] Plays nicely under Crossover 12 [13:58] Played a bit of the tutorial before bed. Damn, this is a deep game [13:59] snap-l: http://clusterbleep.net/blog/2012/07/17/running-stardocks-sins-of-a-solar-empire-rebellion-on-linux/ [14:01] Yeah, I had a license for Crossover, and decided when I was making an order on Amazon to pull the trigger on the older version just to see if it worked. [14:06] I keep asking my sister when they are going to make games for Linux now that Steam is on it [14:07] apparently they make more money from their Windows8 apps than from games [14:07] yeah, I can imagine [14:07] They're not exactly AAA twitch-fests [14:08] You're not going to hand Solar Empires to someone with a half-hour to kill [14:09] lmao https://twitter.com/TheLazyDog_/status/319427516345503744/photo/1 [14:09] hahahahahaha [14:09] I mean the card is funny, but the comment about it is equally funny. [14:09] see, day is looking up :) [14:13] and I remembered headphones to the coffee shop "I am the greatest man that ever lived...I was born to give and give..." [14:15] heh. :) [14:47] Cleaning out some old stuff when I came across this https://dl.dropbox.com/u/101667/ricks_new_profile_pic.jpg [14:51] ruh roh [15:14] Is there some run on Star Wars VHS tapes that I'm not aware of? [15:14] I literally sold two of them in the past 30 days. [15:16] wait, someone is buying VHS tapes? [15:18] heh yea, not been able to play a VHS tape in something approaching 10yrs [15:21] snap-l: Lucas is trying to buy them all up to destroy so there will be only the revised versions of Star Wars [15:22] brousch: That's the most salient response I can come up with [16:13] greg-g: what's your WMF email contact info? (PM me) [16:54] <3 BSOD jokes on the daily show from last night. [16:59] http://decafbad.net/2013/04/01/open-metalcast-puts-full-support-behind-new-riaa-certified-creative-commons-license/#comments [18:07] jcastro: greg@wikimedia.org [18:07] hello from the juror's room, btw [18:11] greg-g: Going through selection? [18:50] http://imgur.com/a/UWU9X [20:02] snap-l: didn't get called (didn't even get to selection part) :( [20:11] greg-g: Sorry to hear that. [20:11] I even get 5 paid days off for jury duty each year! [20:12] greg-g: that's pretty enlightened [20:12] yeah, the WMF is [20:13] When I went for Jury Duty one year, I was contracting, so it was like getting a pay cut for the day [20:13] and had the fun of declaring it on my taxes too [20:13] It's like unemployment without the fucking around all day. [20:13] or the self loathing. :) [20:20] heh [20:21] yeah, the funny part was when they said that you can get $2.50 flat mileage plus $15.00/per day, unless you're a govt employee, you only get the $2.50 [20:21] well, there were a lot of funny parts, that was one of them
