| SuperMatt | morning | 08:20 |
| SuperMatt | I hope the weekend was good and long for everybody as it was me | 08:20 |
| brobostigon | morning | 08:28 |
| brobostigon | variable, good and bad. | 08:29 |
| SuperMatt | bit quiet in here today | 15:45 |
| * diddledan sounds the sirens | 15:49 | |
| SuperMatt | what are they normally designed to alert to? | 15:49 |
| diddledan | I think it's a warning about tsunamis? | 15:49 |
| SuperMatt | are you not worried about causing panic? | 15:51 |
| brobostigon | so it isnt a politician sprouting crap siren? | 15:52 |
| diddledan | I weighed up the pros and cons, and decided what the heck | 15:53 |
| brobostigon | :) | 15:53 |
| diddledan | I mean, you only live once, and if you haven't caused mass casualties from stampedes at least once then it's a bit of a wasted life... | 15:54 |
| diddledan | of course, for best effect you want to get all the people near water to rush inland to escape the faux tsunami while at the same time raising alarm about a nuclear bomb en route targetting the inland area they're rushing towards | 15:56 |
| penguin42 | wth did the format of rail tickets change? | 18:53 |
| zmoylan-pi | because all the software people had written to handle them was complete? :-) | 18:55 |
| penguin42 | they've been the same format for decades! | 18:56 |
| diddledan | they've changed? | 18:56 |
| zmoylan-pi | yeah, they had to go in that case... | 18:56 |
| diddledan | harder to forge? | 18:57 |
| diddledan | or.. easier to forge? | 18:57 |
| zmoylan-pi | it's the train equivalent of moving the location of the bread in the supermarket... :-) | 18:57 |
| diddledan | ooh, that's evil! | 18:57 |

| penguin42 | doesn't seem easier/harder to anything | 18:58 |
| zmoylan-pi | all those people with their own templates knocking out tickets... | 19:00 |
| diddledan | refundable for a fee? | 19:00 |
| diddledan | it's not much or a return if you can only use it on one journey...? | 19:01 |
| penguin42 | diddledan: That's one of the two tickets | 19:01 |
| diddledan | why print one ticket when you can print two at twice the cost... :-p | 19:02 |
| penguin42 | right; I have had single tickets that do both ways, but it's unusual | 19:03 |
