[02:09] <cmaloney> Evening
[02:13] <_stink_> hello
[02:16] <cmaloney> _stink_: Whassup?
[02:17] <_stink_> super fun spot testing a release into a big sailsfurs instance for work
[02:17] <_stink_> since you know, an instance that is so big one cannot run the real tests you wrote
[02:17] <_stink_> is a great idea!
[02:17] <_stink_> i'm sure you are doing somethin gbetter
[02:19] <cmaloney> Not particularly. That sounds like fun. ;)
[02:20] <cmaloney> Actually, I'm gawking at how much Sinclair ZX-80 machines go for online: http://ur1.ca/mja3d
[02:20] <_stink_> daang
[02:21] <jrwren> wow.
[02:21] <_stink_> i have a sinclair 1000
[02:21] <cmaloney> Same here
[02:21] <jrwren> i'm pretty sure I first used one because my pops got it for $20 at a garage sale
[02:21] <_stink_> this one is rarer i think?
[02:21] <jrwren> in '89 or so
[02:21] <cmaloney> The ZX80 preveeded it
[02:21] <_stink_> right
[02:21] <cmaloney> And the Timex Sinclair 1000 is pretty common over here.
[02:22] <cmaloney> I'm getting a ZX81 kit in the mail from a Craigslist ad I found in San Francisco
[02:22] <cmaloney> Managed to get lucky to find someone who wasn't opposed to shipping
[02:22] <cmaloney> sadly the guy who owned it passed away and the Window enlisted a close friend to sell it online
[02:25] <cmaloney> http://ur1.ca/mjacv
[02:25] <cmaloney> Apparnetly someone sold the entire Jupiter Ace brand
[02:26] <cmaloney> Or rather they tried
[02:27] <_stink_> yeah i don't see a winner on there
[02:27] <cmaloney> http://www.sinclairzxworld.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1355
[02:27] <cmaloney> Thread I'm looking at
[02:30] <cmaloney> I actually had a ZX80 in my hands but couldn't convince the person to part with it.
[02:30] <cmaloney> I don't think it was his unfortunately.
[02:33] <_stink_> and you judged that he runs faster than you?
[02:34] <cmaloney> he's a friend so I wasn't about to try it
[02:34] <_stink_> hah
[02:35] <_stink_> having friends.
[02:35] <cmaloney> Bad business decisions, having friends and all
[02:45] <_stink_> one day you'll learn
[02:45] <cmaloney> Yeah, no doubt.
[11:04] <rick_h_> morning
[11:04] <rick_h_> cmaloney: heads up, don't think I'm going to make CHC
[12:10] <cmaloney> rick_h_: considering I thought this week was early edition I thought you were already on the rlad. ;)
[12:11]  * cmaloney os all sorts of goofed
[12:11] <rick_h_> heh
[12:11] <cmaloney> everything OK?
[12:11] <rick_h_> yea, just late work meeting
[12:11] <rick_h_> we'll see if it's all ok after that heh
[12:11] <cmaloney> ah, here's hoping it doesn't spiral
[15:04] <cmaloney> <3 my users. "Here's the error I'm getting" (attached is "Print screen.docx")
[15:08] <_stink_> yes i love those
[15:09] <_stink_> what's really fun is if someone makes one of those in word on windows, and then you open the doc in libreoffice, often you can see the entire screen in the screenshot
[15:09] <_stink_> because the data is there but word enforces a boundary
[15:09] <_stink_> that libreoffice does not
[15:09] <cmaloney> Haven't seen those yet.
[15:10] <_stink_> so they think they are sending just a window screenshot... but all their other depraved stuff is visible
[15:11] <cmaloney> The one that I love is when they send over their email inbox numbers. I just want to send them "Inbox Zero"
[15:12] <cmaloney> Nothing makes me cry more than knowing people wade through shit in order to get stuff done.
[20:19] <jrwren> too cool! http://wrengineering.com
[20:19] <cmaloney> Relations?
[20:20] <jrwren> yes
[20:20] <cmaloney> Ah, very cool
[20:30] <cscheib> jrwren: god I hate sites that are designed like that, where the layout changes as you scroll
[20:30] <jrwren> cscheib: so many folks have such a strong opinion about this. I don't get it.
[20:35] <cscheib> feels clunky and slow, even on fast systems, IMO.  And it just feels wrong
[21:04] <jrwren> cscheib: i've never had the clunkly slow experience with this.
[21:04] <jrwren> cscheib: you using ie6 or something?
[21:06] <cscheib> chrome, safari
