| daftykins | i'm about to invade the UK again on Monday, but all foodstuffs are safe for the most part i think :) | 19:07 |
|---|---|---|
| zxmpi | except chocolate oranges, attempt no pucrchases there :-) | 19:18 |
| daftykins | haha been a long time now, i've gone off those a lot | 19:30 |
| zxmpi | who are you and what did you do to the real daftykins?! | 19:33 |
| daftykins | hah | 19:33 |
| * zxmpi wanders off for daily walk | 19:33 | |
| daftykins | ah this is the one that has touched burnout due to an unhinged client | 19:33 |
| zxmpi | sorry to hear that, they can drive you bonkers | 21:42 |
| daftykins | mmm this is the elderly wealthy one, lately he's slipped mentally so much it can be an email at 10:00, call at 10:03, SMS thereafter | 21:43 |
| daftykins | oh i should add that the subject was trivial, not an emergency xD | 21:49 |
| zxmpi | some sort of auto response to his email. wait 30 minues after you receive this email before calling. any sooner and i won't have an answer yet... | 21:51 |
| * penguin42 replaces daftykins with a small LLM | 21:59 | |
| daftykins | :D | 22:00 |
| penguin42 | "You are an LLM that should pretend to be a highly skilled but lazy IT engineer. Ask questions of the caller to ascertain what the problem is and try and suggest simple fixes. Only when desperate ask your owner to help. To delay the caller ask for Jaffa Cakes." | 22:01 |
| daftykins | \o/ | 22:02 |
| daftykins | uh oh you might have woken davef with that reference | 22:02 |
| zxmpi | for speedy service offer to loan him season 2 of firefly | 22:18 |
| daftykins | still never enjoyed what i saw of that *dons flame-proof suit* | 22:20 |
| penguin42 | dam, what was the spoof public information film that predicted people buying 50 rolls of toilet paper etc in a disaster | 23:37 |
| daftykins | pass! | 23:38 |
| daftykins | pre-pandemic genius? :D | 23:38 |
| penguin42 | it was one of the well known comics who did it a few years before the pandemic | 23:39 |
| penguin42 | oh, was it a David Mitchell thing... | 23:43 |
| penguin42 | it's a mitcchell and webb thing, but hmm | 23:47 |
| daftykins | hrmm | 23:50 |
| penguin42 | damn, I can't find the actual one - but I think it starts off with an episode of The Quiz or perhaps does into that | 23:54 |
| penguin42 | but it tells you all the things you'll need and how you'll hear a warning sound etc | 23:54 |
| daftykins | ah yeah | 23:56 |
