[04:06]<+camerongray> Wow, someone has just been warned in CH for saying "Sexy" about a PC case...
[04:07]<+pottsi> lol
[04:08]<+camerongray> Like, is it even a swear word?
[04:08]<+camerongray> It's not like you drop something on your foot and yell "Oh sexy!"
[04:08]<+camerongray> Anyway, hey pottsi :P
[04:12]<+pottsi> ohai
[05:03]<+pottsi> finally set a working mail server up camerongray :D
[05:05]<+camerongray> Ahh, nice!

[06:30]<+camerongray> Hey BC_Programming
[06:30]<@BC_Programming> Oh.... it's you
[06:30]<@BC_Programming> heh
[06:31]<+camerongray> lol
[06:31]<+camerongray> Currently facedesking at "you-can-probably-guess-who"
[06:32]<+camerongray> <patio> camerongray: He still has Repair options without a DVD...See Here: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/668-system-recovery-options.html
[06:33]<+camerongray> You know the bit that says "NOTE: This is if your computer did not come with a Windows 7 installation DVD, and has pre-installed recovery options (recovery partition) instead."
[06:33]<+camerongray> Does he actually read links he posts!
[06:33]<@BC_Programming> Yeah Patio is becoming something of a Doofus
[06:34]<@BC_Programming> Well assuming it's not just that I'm only now noticing that he's been a Doofus this whole time
[06:34]<+camerongray> hehehe
[06:34]<+camerongray> Well, been a doofus for a while
[06:34]<+camerongray> But getting worse
[06:34]<@BC_Programming> Also I like the word Doofus
[06:34]<+camerongray> yeah
[06:34]<+camerongray> You missed DB's epic goof last night!
[06:34]<+camerongray> [23:13:15] <guest_12> yes well it is a dell inspiron
[06:34]<+camerongray> [23:13:40] --> |Balrog| (Balrog@mib-22BA02F6.cable.mindspring.com) has joined #computerhope
[06:34]<+camerongray> [23:13:43] <guest_12> ive heard that they arent exactly the best laptops
[06:34]<+camerongray> [23:13:50] <db100547> guest_12: nothing wrong with those , we use hundreds of themj .
[06:35]<+camerongray> Big business, using Dell Inspirons, I think not!
[06:35]<+camerongray> Oh, and now:
[06:35]<+camerongray> <patio> camerongray: I have 2 Win 7 installs at my office that have those advanced recovery options at boot...no DVD...no recovery partition.
[06:35]<+camerongray> <patio> i know because i built them.
[06:36]<+camerongray> The problem is a missing boot manager so how he expects to get into that I have no idea
[06:37]<@BC_Programming> No when db says "hundreds" it's probably only 2 or 3 that him and the other forklift drivers use to play games
[06:38]<@BC_Programming> the company bought them for them because they were using the forklifts to play forklift polo
[06:38]<+camerongray> lol!
[06:38]<+camerongray> I mean, where I work I could list all the PCs we have - That few
[06:38]<+camerongray> And even then, we use Vostro laptops
[06:38]<+camerongray> Now patio is telling me to reboot my PC to show the startup options are there
[06:39]<@BC_Programming> F8 has startup options, what is he referring to
[06:39]<+camerongray> You know, my PC with a working boot manager
[06:39]<+camerongray> Yeah
[06:39]<@BC_Programming> oh repair options
[06:39]<@BC_Programming> yeah you don't get those without the DVD afaik
[06:40]<+camerongray> yeah
[06:40]<+camerongray> Or a factory recovery partition
[07:03]<@BC_Programming> yay I have 10 Llama badges on deviantArt
[07:03]<@BC_Programming> therefore my Llama has become a Super Llama
[07:03]<@BC_Programming> I have no idea wtf that means
[07:10]<+camerongray> hehhehe
[07:11]<@BC_Programming> http://st.deviantart.net/badges/llama_super.gif
[07:11]<@BC_Programming> He has a cape
[07:11]<@BC_Programming> though it kinda looks like a scarf
[07:12]<+camerongray> heheh
[07:12]<@BC_Programming> See before today, I didn't have a Super Llama, I just had a Normal Llama
[07:12]<+camerongray> Tourists get weirder by the day, just saw someone taking a photo of a woman I assume was his wife leaning on a sign outside KFC!
[07:12]<@BC_Programming> what?
[07:13]<@BC_Programming> lol
[07:13]<@BC_Programming> "dear, take a picture of me next to this location agnostic food chain"
[07:13]<+camerongray> lol
[07:13]<@BC_Programming> Then they get back to the US and you can't even really tell they went anywhere
[07:13]<+camerongray> its not even a big KFC, its an outlet in a mall food court!
[07:14]<@BC_Programming> because t hey took pictures of themselves next to KFC and McDonalds and a few Benches
[07:14]<@BC_Programming> but not, you know, landmarks
[07:14]<+camerongray> lol
[07:16]<+camerongray> come to think of it, the fish and chip shop next to it would be more touristy
[07:17]<@BC_Programming> that would have been too far
[07:17]<+camerongray> lol!
[07:17]<@BC_Programming> maybe they were thinking "Wow! They even have Buildings over here... you could so easily mistake them for people!"
[07:18]<+camerongray> and there is a bagpiper just outside the door, or how about kiltmaker's shop? nope - KFC!
[07:18]<+camerongray> come to think of it, they didn't even go in!
[07:23]<+camerongray> lol, I suppose they could have been the "wow, they have (insert common item such as electricity) in Scotland"
[07:23]<+camerongray> And I have been asked that before!
[07:24]<@BC_Programming> Just turn around and walk away
[07:24]<+camerongray> lol
[07:24]<@BC_Programming> or "Me no speakee English"
[07:24]<+camerongray> or "yes, and we just got this thing, its like a radio, but has pictures"
[07:25]<+camerongray> which is also funny as arguably the TV was invented here
[07:26]<+camerongray> the us invented the CRT, but we invented a TV consisting of a hat box and a coffin whose camera needed so much light it set someone's hair on fire
[07:27]<+camerongray> I do wonder, what would we have now if that technology had taken off instead of CRTs!
[07:27]<@BC_Programming> Yeah often it's someone in another country who first comes up with the concept, it only becomes viable when somebody in the US asks "Cool! Now, How can I make money from this?"
[07:27]<+camerongray> lol!
[07:28]<+camerongray> ours was more ingenious, spinning disc with a spiral of lenses and a single flashing lightbulb behind it. think of the quality!
[07:29]<@BC_Programming> But spinning discs are dangerous! think of the children!
[07:29]<+camerongray> lol
[07:29]<+camerongray> or the fact it set stuff on fire
[07:30]<@BC_Programming> Much safer to create a vacuum sealed glass container that shoots radiation
[07:30]<+camerongray> or the fact the inventor blew his city's power trying to make diamonds in a paint pot
[07:31]<@BC_Programming> Speaking of crazy inventions I build a contraption in my base on Tux's Minecraft Server that makes potions completely automatically
[07:31]<+camerongray> nice!
[07:31]<@BC_Programming> Yes I have four double-chests of Invisibility potions now lol
[07:32]<@BC_Programming> then somebody requested to teleport to me, I said "I don't think that's a good idea, you won't like it" or something, but they insisted so I accepted their teleport and killed them instantly
[07:32]<+camerongray> they have one of those spinning disc TVs in the museum, the idea was to place your head against it and look through a hole into the box, wonder why that didn't take odd!
[07:32]<+camerongray> off
[07:32]<+camerongray> LOL!
[07:33]<@BC_Programming> the reason it didn't take off is because men and french women kept getting their beards trapped
[07:33]<+camerongray> bahaha!
[07:34]<+camerongray> they had a war like VHS and betaMax

[08:10]<PCdoc> camerongray: see that ?? lc used battlecam to kick .. ;)
[08:14]<+camerongray> yep!
[08:22]<jamer> Lol lc had to bring his kid to summer school
[08:24]<@BC_Programming> ok.... why si that funny
[08:25]<jamer> Cause summer school is basically if the kid failed a bunch of classes
[08:26]<@BC_Programming> I know what Summer school is
[08:26]<@BC_Programming> that doesn't explain why it's funny
[08:30]<jamer> Lostcoast bought his son a new pc and games earlier in the year ... basically his son used the pc instead of doing his school work and studying
[08:33]<@BC_Programming> You don't know that his son used the PC for games instead of doing his school work and studying, nor can you establish any exclusivity on the results based on the PC/Games. Even if we allow for that though- It's still not funny.
[08:34]<jamer> Ok ... then sorry
[08:42]<PCdoc> patio lost senses
[08:42]<PCdoc> why does he have to speak without reading
[08:42]<+camerongray> Yep
[08:42]<@BC_Programming> me and camerongray have come to the scientific conclusion that he is a Doofus
[08:44]<PCdoc> ??
[08:44]<+camerongray> See him there
[08:44]<+camerongray> "I don't need help opping" - Well, you did ban the wrong person!
[08:45]<PCdoc> <lostcoast> apple products does that when it hibernates
[08:45]<PCdoc> <patio> camerongray: So you know him then ?
[08:45]<PCdoc> <camerongray> No, but I'd say a client doing that is much more likely to be a network rather than someone who does have a good, albeit short track record opening and closing their client
[08:45]<PCdoc> <patio> If so call him and tell him how to setup an irc client.
[08:45]<PCdoc> <camerongray> Can't you ban the whole hostmask and nick? That way he can come back once he has sorted his client and his nick changes
[08:45]<PCdoc> <lostcoast> I did not ban gta
[08:45]<PCdoc> <camerongray> Well, Hopebot did
[08:45]<PCdoc> <camerongray> Mode #computerhope +b *!*@mib-6BF865AB.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com by ChanServ
[08:45]<PCdoc> <lostcoast> oh that guy has proxied all morn
[08:45]<PCdoc> <camerongray> That's GTA :P
[08:45]<PCdoc> <camerongray> <-- gta_master (Mibbit@mib-6BF865AB.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com) has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
[08:45]<PCdoc> <lostcoast> have fun
[08:45]<PCdoc> <lostcoast> I dont need help opping
[08:45]<PCdoc> <camerongray> Fine, sorry
[08:45]<PCdoc> * camerongray goes and does something else
[08:45]<+camerongray> Anyone feel like backing me up :P
[08:46]<@BC_Programming> " apple products does that when it hibernates" << learn to grammar
[08:46]<PCdoc> it came from
[08:46]<PCdoc> * ChanServ has kicked guest_51 from #computerhope (Banned for too many reconnects. (Hopebot))
[08:46]<PCdoc> <camerongray> oops
[08:46]<PCdoc> * BattleCam removes ban on *!guest_51@*
[08:46]<PCdoc> * BattleCam sets ban on *!Mibbit@*.E3724A80.IP
[08:46]<PCdoc> <lostcoast> proxy gets isp ban
[08:46]<PCdoc> <camerongray> Couldn't that be a huge ISP?
[08:47]<PCdoc> <lostcoast> gta_master gets 14 days in the hole
[08:47]<PCdoc> <camerongray> Surely it's just a client bugging out and they are just away
[08:47]<PCdoc> <lostcoast> did not do it all morning
[08:47]<PCdoc> <patio> Don't call me Shirley...
[08:47]<PCdoc> <azander> most likely a mis-configured Wireless ro uter
[08:47]<PCdoc> <camerongray> lol
[08:47]<PCdoc> <camerongray> He's not doing it deliberately - It'll just be an issue with their client or as azander says, router
[08:49] * Tux2 (Tux2@mib-2E509BD1.hlrn.qwest.net) Quit (Client exited)
[08:49]<PCdoc> lc wont unban u.. for the first time he got a reason to ban u for some 'reason' which cannot be undone :P
[08:50]<@BC_Programming> It's funny because that ban can be 'circumvented' by using an IRC client
[08:50]<PCdoc> and that will be mibbit's most popular 'ban evade'
[08:50]<+camerongray> Yeah
[08:51]<PCdoc> lc will go party for permanently banning camerongray and all his nicks as he has already claimed there its him :P
[08:51]<+camerongray> Annoying too, gta_master was a nice guy!
[08:51]<@BC_Programming> OMG
[08:51]<@BC_Programming> yeah the ban wouldn't really work very well at all
[08:52]<@BC_Programming> It will probably ban a bunch of random people using the widget
[08:52]<@BC_Programming> here's my prediction that there might be at least one forum post from somebody that got banned
[08:53]<+camerongray> lol
[08:53]<+camerongray> I so wanted to respond with "Well, it seems you do" when he said he doens't need help opping
[08:53]<@BC_Programming> lol
[08:54]<+camerongray> I wonder what he's like in real life, is he always a tit or is he just a tit when he's in front of a computer
[08:55]<+camerongray> Probably the latter, not like we volunteer our time to help him!
[08:56]<+camerongray> I love shopping for stuff when it's not my money :D
[08:57]<@BC_Programming> lol
[08:57]<+camerongray> "Ok, we need a replacement server for Tableau. Unfortunately things are never that easy... We need two servers, one for redundancy in case the other goes down"
[08:57]<+camerongray> "we would need to pair them with 256GB SSDs"
[08:57]<+camerongray> " If you can compile a shopping list that'd be good."
[08:57]<+camerongray> Oh, I should reply like lostcoast - "I'm not here to do your shopping"
[08:58]<@BC_Programming> heh
[08:58]<+camerongray> This one sounds nice "24GB Dell CS24-SC Server Dual Xeon Quad Core 8x2.5GHz"
[08:58]<@BC_Programming> I would probably blurt out "And I'm not here to listen to idiots prattle on about topics on which they are ignorant, but sadly that's all I get"
[08:58]<+camerongray> Basically the same as mine, but has more RAM
[08:58]<+camerongray> Oh wait!
[08:59]<+camerongray> No server needs more than 12gb RAM
[08:59]<+camerongray> What am I doing!
[08:59]<@BC_Programming> lol
[08:59]<+camerongray> A "Medium Deployment" recommends 32gb!
[08:59]<+camerongray> Current server has 4gb, and a pair of single core opterons

[09:44]<+pottsi> set it up myself camerongray
[09:45]<+camerongray> Cool!
[10:21]<@Mulreay> new PC should be here in an hour or so
[10:21]<@BC_Programming> Hmm I should probably go outside and wait for my MVP Award package
[10:21]<@BC_Programming> missed it on Friday
[10:22]<@BC_Programming> I put the little notice thingie back saying to leave it down the stairs but the upstairs people might have removed it
[10:23]<@BC_Programming> You never really realize how useful it is to be able to reliably receive parcels and mail until you can't
[10:36]<+camerongray> My UPS should have arrived by now :D
[10:36]<@Mulreay> Looks like we're all waiting
[11:06]<jamer> Besides me
[11:14]<+pottsi> you're just waiting for puberty
[11:14]<+pottsi> xD
[11:19]<jamer> Already happened XD
[11:35]<@Mulreay> PC has arrived.. my kinda girl she turns up right on time
[11:45] * jacky (the_kink@mib-71DCD397.slsbmd.east.verizon.net) has left #glitchpc
[12:10]<@BC_Programming> Mulreay: how you getting on with it then
[12:27]<@Mulreay> As you may expect BC_Programming swearing, pulling of hair and what not.. now I'm picking out swatches for win8 apparently 'What colour would you like?' I'd like to start the F'ing computer if it's all the same
[12:28]<@BC_Programming> huh... so I guess it hadn't been booted before?
[12:28]<jamer> Lol ... my sisters laptop was like that also .. took ages just to boot it
[12:28]<@Mulreay> No BC_Programming
[12:29]<@Mulreay> Now I need to set up an outlook account... oh the pain
[12:31]<@BC_Programming> well I better go back outside
[12:31]<@BC_Programming> I'm sure the delivery will go tits-up if I give it a chance
[12:31]<@Mulreay> Good luck
[12:33]<@BC_Programming> hmm perhaps O wo;; try tp dp a basic unboxing of it
[12:33]<@BC_Programming> I might even learn to use a keyboard
[12:33]<@Mulreay> GENIUS it has a captcha on boot 'We want to make sure it's a real person signing into this PC' Are you kidding me? No it's my robot friend that I left to set up the PC plug it all in and boot from the CD
[12:34]<@BC_Programming> I never had a captcha
[12:35]<@Mulreay> I think it's for the outlook thing for apps and the such
[12:36]<@BC_Programming> huh
[12:36]<jamer> My sister had a account for her xbox so she used that XD
[12:36]<@BC_Programming> well this is disappointing
[12:36]<@BC_Programming> I'm actually really pissed off with MS now
[12:36]<@BC_Programming> but at the same time this explains a few things
[12:36]<@Mulreay> Why what happened?
[12:37]<@BC_Programming> I'll try to do an unboxing of sorts that will try to explain that
[12:37]<@BC_Programming> will have to clear my desk first lol
[12:38]<@Mulreay> Is it not the award?
[12:38]<@BC_Programming> it's the award
[12:39]<@BC_Programming> in a way
[12:39]<@BC_Programming> now I'm trying to figure out how the hell I'm going to make a video
[12:39] * Tux2 (Tux2@mib-2E509BD1.hlrn.qwest.net) Quit (Client exited)
[12:39]<@Mulreay> Just thought of something... I have a shite ton of downloading to do when this is set up
[12:40]<@BC_Programming> oh never mind that's fucking great
[12:40]<@Mulreay> heh cool
[12:40]<@BC_Programming> oh not what you said lol
[12:41]<@BC_Programming> Sorry just starting to piss me off that I don't even have my own space
[12:41]<@Mulreay> I can imagine
[12:42]<@BC_Programming> hmm well today is just taking a dump on me
[12:43]<@Mulreay> Now going to attempt to download and install some stuff.. very strange setup win8
[12:48]<@Mulreay> OK now setting up FF sync to save me all the trouble
[13:02]<@Mulreay> Defo need to crossfire this.. VGA just aint good
[13:06]<@BC_Programming> VGA?
[13:06]<@BC_Programming> have you considered installing the drivers
[13:06]<@BC_Programming> made the video it didn't turn out very well since I didn't really think through the whole only having one hand problem and it was blurry
[13:06]<@Mulreay> I can't even find 'my computer' as of this moment
[13:07]<@BC_Programming> To explain the annoyance, apparently you only get a nice fancy award package when you are a <new> MVP
[13:07]<@BC_Programming> otherwise you get this bland cardboard box... though technically it includes everything but the sweet trophy
[13:08]<@BC_Programming> I think I over-reacted
[13:08]<@BC_Programming> but the video might be funny so I'll plonk it as unlisted for you guys
[13:09]<@Mulreay> cool, will attempt to find it when I find out how to work this damn thing
[13:09]<@BC_Programming> yeah I'll have to edit it, splice the audio in, and upload it first, I would think :P
[13:11]<@Mulreay> Can't believe this comes with Norton with NO way to tell it to F off.. literally page on the screen 'enter your email address' with no way of removing it.. unless I enter my email address.. top form as always Microsoft.. if you were not helping me with PITB I would send a VERY strongly worded email
[13:13]<@BC_Programming> yeah, because Microsoft is totally the PC manufacturer that installs Norton
[13:14]<@Mulreay> well someone is a wanker, being this had never been booted and it's a to order build by a guy I know.. so it either came in from the fairies or the HDD manufacturer
[13:15]<@BC_Programming> it didn't come from Windows/MS themselves, from the sounds of things it is some sort of OEM installation or preinstallation kit deal, since otherwise it wouldn't have taken you through the end-setup steps
[13:16]<@BC_Programming> probably the latter which means the "guy you know" may be the wanker :P
[13:17]<@Mulreay> Apparently I don't need essentials as win defender will do it all... I don't like that
[13:17]<@BC_Programming> I think Defender is basically Essentials now or something, Don't really pay attention to that
[13:17]<@Mulreay> kk
[13:18]<@Mulreay> Well uninstalled Norton.. no way I'm going down that road again
[13:19] * pottsi (Mibbit@pottsi.staff.mibbit.net) Quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
[13:19]<@BC_Programming> oh other thing that appeared semi-randomly after I came inside
[13:19]<@BC_Programming> bam E-mail response from a place I applied
[13:19]<@Mulreay> cool
[13:20]<@Mulreay> any joy?
[13:20]<@BC_Programming> with the dreaded "I don't see any prior work experience with companies. If you could
[13:20]<@BC_Programming> provide more about your work experience."
[13:20]<@BC_Programming> "Also, please complete the attached Self Assessment and return by email."
[13:20]<@BC_Programming> I was sorta hoping having two freaking MVP Awards and being only one of 4 people in freaking Canada with a C# MVP award might count for something
[13:21]<@Mulreay> Would you like a ref from me ie 'Pixels in the Blood Ltd'? I can get quite creative
[13:21]<@BC_Programming> well I don't want to lie :/ I prefer to be as honest as possible, that way I don't have to remember what I lied about heheh
[13:22]<@BC_Programming> otherwise you know years down the road it will be "what do you mean you've never dealt with Azure, Your previous boss said you were an expert"
[13:22]<@Mulreay> I won't lie, you have helped me LOADS over the years with websites and the such.. they don't need to know how young this company is
[13:22]<@BC_Programming> well that's true
[13:22]<@Mulreay> Tell me what you DO know and we can work out a ref
[13:22]<@BC_Programming> but they will probably look it up
[13:23]<@Mulreay> Mmm yeah there is that
[13:23]<@BC_Programming> trying to decide if I should try to edit this video or respond to the E-mail first
[13:23]<@BC_Programming> because I got some pretty good jokes in the video
[13:24]<@BC_Programming> looking at my 2012 Award box "yes, as you can see it features a man holding folders. Look into his eyes and you can see they are the eyes of a man who has lost all hope, which establishes them as pretty much any IT professional"
[13:25]<@BC_Programming> I like how the 'Self Assesment' PDF they sent is misspelled
[13:25]<@Mulreay> lol at last two comments
[13:25]<@BC_Programming> they don't tell me what the Asses ment so how can I respond
[13:26]<jamer> Lol
[13:27]<@BC_Programming> "and on this years box, well, we have nothing, because it's cardboard, but inside we have a different picture. This year, they've gone with the classic "kinda Creepy indian Guy holding a pen and blurry chinese guy next to him."
[13:28]<jamer> You should do the assessmemt and write on the bottom about the misspell
[13:28]<@BC_Programming> when I send it back I'll just spell it right heh
[13:30]<@BC_Programming> oh geez
[13:30]<jamer> ?
[13:30]<@BC_Programming> it's basically a bunch of multiple choices rating your abilities in different stuffs
[13:30]<@BC_Programming> "Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, Guru" flashback to CH profiles
[13:32]<jamer> Dear god ...
[13:32]<@Mulreay> yeah
[13:32]<@BC_Programming> wait wtf... at the top, Applicant name (sensible), Date...
[13:32]<@BC_Programming> but one of them
[13:32]<@BC_Programming> "Vehicle/Year"
[13:32]<@BC_Programming> wtf?
[13:34]<@BC_Programming> oh
[13:34]<@BC_Programming> well it was kind of them to NOT list the requirement for a vehicle on the freaking ad
[13:34]<@BC_Programming> Thanks for wasting my time dillholes
[13:35]<@BC_Programming> well the assumed requirement what with me only just now learning what their company is called
[13:36]<@Mulreay> OK need flash player now
[13:37]<@BC_Programming> hmm well I'll roll with this dude anyway see what comes of it, might not be an issue
[13:39]<@BC_Programming> I do like how they used PDF
[13:39]<@BC_Programming> because using a format that is easy to edit is just too easy to do
[13:40]<@BC_Programming> oh, Word 2013 can open PDF files, that's interesting
[13:43]<@BC_Programming> hmm come to think of it It's always the more sure ones that seem to fall apart, I should try harder on one like this that seems sketchy
[13:45]<@Mulreay> OK finally manged to get my computer on the desktop
[13:45]<@Mulreay> it does have a 1tb drive
[13:45]<@BC_Programming> Salary Range, I'm thinking, 15K-20K a year
[13:46]<+camerongray> New model M <3
[13:46]<+camerongray> My fingers are so happy!
[13:46]<@BC_Programming> hmm they spelled Assessment wrong everywhere
[13:47]<@BC_Programming> So here's my thinking, No freaking way am I putting "GURU" for anything
[13:47]<@BC_Programming> that would be suicide
[13:47]<@BC_Programming> Only one I'm going to put "Advanced" for will be C# and .NET if that, but only because I can back that up
[13:48]<@Mulreay> indeedy
[13:48]<@BC_Programming> you just have to look at who has "Guru" on CH
[13:48]<@BC_Programming> Doofuses
[13:49]<+camerongray> Interestingly DB only put "Experienced"
[13:49]<@BC_Programming> maybe he just didn't know it went higher
[13:49]<+camerongray> lol
[13:49]<@Mulreay> I'm beginner at it should be
[13:50]<@BC_Programming> I have mine set to beginner also
[13:50]<+camerongray> Now to find UK key caps for a 24 year old keyboard!
[13:50]<@BC_Programming> because it's funny
[13:50]<+camerongray> MIne is German!
[13:50]<+camerongray> I have a "Strg" key, and a "Druck" key
[13:50]<@BC_Programming> I don't like this self-assessment
[13:50]<+camerongray> Don't forget "Ende" "Untbr" "Rollen" "Endfg" and others ;P
[13:51]<@Mulreay> I have mine as beginner as I have nothing to prove, the people I care about all know what I can do.. i don't need to show off to some jumpstart who has major ego issues on CH
[13:51]<+camerongray> Yeah
[13:51]<@BC_Programming> Certifications: Too many to list
[13:51]<+camerongray> Yep
[13:51]<+camerongray> And his PC is "one of the best"
[13:51]<@BC_Programming> always get a chuckle from those
[13:51]<+camerongray> Sure, it'll be better than mine, and probably yours :P
[13:52]<@BC_Programming> yeah bet it's 100 inspirons
[13:52]<+camerongray> BAHAH!
[13:52]<@Mulreay> lol
[13:52]<@BC_Programming> OK I'm going with this on the assessment, if I don't really know much about what the entry is, I'm putting beginner
[13:52]<+camerongray> Oh yeah, did you see Patio today about me buying servers for work
[13:53]<+camerongray> I was struggling to find a retail copy of Windows Web Server 2008 R2, and he couldn't understand this
[13:53]<+camerongray> Sends a link to a google search for "buy windows web server"
[13:53]<+camerongray> Not like I'd tried much better searches for hours!
[13:53]<@BC_Programming> can't get it off Dreamspark?
[13:53]<@BC_Programming> oh retail
[13:53]<+camerongray> Can do, but can't install it on a work server
[13:53]<+camerongray> Of course he kept telling me to
[13:53]<@BC_Programming> eg. Doofus
[13:54]<+camerongray> Then got confused and thought I was pirating the OS or something
[13:54]<@Mulreay> I've lost my wireless mouse.. I mean i moved it when I set up this new PC and moved it to one side as it's for my other PC.. walked off the face of the planet
[13:54]<+camerongray> Told me to "Buy the OS and install it on a proper server"
[13:54]<@BC_Programming> yeah camerongray none of those servers with more than 12GB of RAM, those aren't "proper" servers
[13:54]<+camerongray> Well, I am buying a very "proper" Dell server with 2x Quad Core Xeon and 24gb RAM
[13:54]<+camerongray> Ahhh!
[13:54]<+camerongray> And at the moment we are also using a "proper" IBM server
[13:55]<+camerongray> Then said something about my problems being "self induced"
[13:55]<+camerongray> Not sure what he meant by that
[13:55]<@BC_Programming> OK here question, for LAMP Servers, what would you guys rate me, Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced,Guru
[13:55]<@BC_Programming> I'm thinking Intermediate
[13:55]<+camerongray> Me too
[13:55]<+camerongray> Then said something about I need to learn that getting decisions made at work is hard...
[13:56]<@BC_Programming> I think we've established that Patio is a Doofus
[13:56]<+camerongray> Which may have been in reference to upgrading to Server 2012 which I had mentioned would be easier, but we are using 2008 r2 since we already have one licence for it and only need one more
[13:56]<+camerongray> Yeah :P
[13:56]<@BC_Programming> at least you guys are paying attention to licenses
[13:57]<@BC_Programming> heard lots of horror stories where a Startup or small company decides they can just pirate everything
[13:57]<@BC_Programming> They end rather abruptly when a employee that doesn't realize everybody else is a scumbag tries to contact support
[13:58]<@BC_Programming> I'm putting
[13:58]<+camerongray> Oh yeah, especially computer shops installing pirated software
[13:58]<@BC_Programming> Beginner for IIS
[13:58]<+camerongray> Scary the number that do that
[13:59]<+camerongray> Yeah, I was in the cupboard at work - 5 retail packs for Office 2010 Pro, work out how much all that must have cost!
[14:00]<@BC_Programming> Now if the entry is "Web Templates (WordPress,Drupal, etc)" I imagine it's talking about CMS's in general
[14:00]<@BC_Programming> the... custom jargon is a bit worrying
[14:00]<+camerongray> And that Tableau software the servers are for... Well... Each user of the desktop application is £1999 a year, we have 4 users and the server is "Contact us for pricing"
[14:00]<@Mulreay> Just realised this has a SATA port, need to fing=d the cable now
[14:01]<+camerongray> Mulreay: Oh, new PC, nice!
[14:01]<+camerongray> I laughed at patio's remark that getting decisions made at work are hard though - The decision to get new servers came sort of like this - "Hey Cam, the tableu server is running really slow, can you look into it" "Err... CPUs are both at 100%" "Oh, what do they recommend" "Err... 8-Cores and around 32gb RAM" "And what do we have?" "Err... Two single core CPUs and 4gb RAM" "Oh.... FInd a pair of new ones"
[14:02]<@BC_Programming> heh would be funny to put Beginner for C# and .NET
[14:02]<@BC_Programming> "I know enough to know how little I know"
[14:02]<@BC_Programming> "What about the ones you rated as Advanced"
[14:02]<+camerongray> "I made a web browser once"
[14:02]<@Mulreay> Don't sell yourself short BC_Programming
[14:03]<@BC_Programming> it would be funny because I've got these two awards for it and then I go and rate it the lowest
[14:03]<@BC_Programming> guy will be like "wtf"
[14:03]<@BC_Programming> they changed the certificate award thingie design
[14:04]<@BC_Programming> It's like win8-themey style
[14:04]<+camerongray> Nice, did you get the delivery?
[14:04]<@BC_Programming> yeah was disappointed though
[14:04]<@BC_Programming> I don't get another trophy
[14:04]<+camerongray> Aww!
[14:04]<@BC_Programming> just the little disc to stick on my previous one
[14:04]<+camerongray> lol
[14:05]<@BC_Programming> Then again I can sorta see it since allegedly it's like 60 dollars or something and that adds up quickly
[14:05]<@BC_Programming> Access? oh man that takes me back
[14:05]<@BC_Programming> I wonder if they mean the Application or the Jet DB
[14:06]<@BC_Programming> and one of the entries is VB... Be specific, VB6 or VB.NET?
[14:06]<@BC_Programming> OK what would you guys put me down for with CSS, given my site and stuff
[14:07]<@BC_Programming> I want to say, advanced but I'm not sure; I do use Selectors and stuff and it usually pretty straightforward anyway
[14:08]<@BC_Programming> I'm going to respond in the E-mail with my reasoning for each
[14:09]<+camerongray> I'd say advanced, your CSS is pretty fancy
[14:09]<@BC_Programming> d'aww
[14:09]<@BC_Programming> oh you
[14:09]<@BC_Programming> stop
[14:09]<@BC_Programming> ok Mulreay your turn
[14:10]<@Mulreay> I think your wank
[14:10]<@BC_Programming> Thank you, I think we can definitely take that on-board
[14:10]<@BC_Programming> now the important question is, what should I call myself
[14:10]<@Mulreay> Lol, I thought we could take the average
[14:11]<@Mulreay> Nah you're very good at what you do and definately advanced
[14:12]<@BC_Programming> OK seriously every year you get like 23 stickers
[14:12]<@BC_Programming> I only used one MVP sticker last year, stuck it on my case
[14:13]<@BC_Programming> And they don't even have the year on them so I can't put another on on there
[14:14]<@BC_Programming> the instructions say "please check" is it wrong that I used Wingdings to make actual checkmarks
[14:14]<+camerongray> lol
[14:14]<+camerongray> Depends if there is a chance they view it on a non-Windows system
[14:15]<+camerongray> It *may* freak out
[14:15]<+camerongray> brb, disovered my '*' isn't labeled on the key :P
[14:15]<@BC_Programming> 15/20K sound reasonable?
[14:17]<+camerongray> Money?
[14:17]<@BC_Programming> no tiddlywinks
[14:17]<+camerongray> lol!
[14:17]<@BC_Programming> yes money
[14:17]<+camerongray> Seems a bit low compared to here, but wages will be very different over there :P
[14:18]<@BC_Programming> well I'm thinking entry-level
[14:18]<@BC_Programming> Now I have to write the Actual E-mail that explains why I haven't worked for a company yet
[14:18]<@BC_Programming> without the obvious "because a company hasn't hired me yet"
[14:19]<@BC_Programming> I'll probably prattle on but if he's going to hire me he should get used to that
[14:20]<@BC_Programming> With me around a discussion about MySQL could turn into a discussion about how forcing people to watch other people play the sims would constitute a form of corporal punishment with the advantage of creating a surplus of interior designers
[14:24]<+camerongray> lol
[14:29]<@Mulreay> I like how Samsung Kies updater.. which has taken over 1hr to get working has a always ontop feature.. where would I be without that feature
[14:30]<@BC_Programming> hmm... well given this reply the guy will either love me or hate me
[14:30]<@Mulreay> Can you forward it?
[14:31]<@BC_Programming> I can paste it temporarily to a uploaded text file for review when I'm finished
[14:31]<+camerongray> Nice!
[14:31]<+camerongray> Just CC us in - "Oh, these are my friends, they want to help" :P
[14:32]<@BC_Programming> heh cc
[14:32]<@Mulreay> or he could just upload the text file like he said
[14:32]<+camerongray> I was kidding :P
[14:32]<@BC_Programming> that's why I don't want to bcc or cc... I'll mess it up somehow lol
[14:32]<+camerongray> I wonder if anyone has sent a cover letter to multiple employers and not BCC'd :P
[14:33]<@BC_Programming> I write a custom cover letter for every single thing I apply to
[14:33]<+camerongray> Yeah, some people don't :P
[14:33]<@BC_Programming> sadly so far the effect has just been to amplify the frustration when the response is crickets
[14:34]<@BC_Programming> or even worse "we'll follow up next week when we start doing interviews".... Still nothing
[14:34]<+camerongray> There was a presenation about that at uni, guy from a local software company, very interesting at that - Says he searches his emails for the default cover letter from the application form and deletes them alll!
[14:35]<@BC_Programming> default cover letter from the application form?
[14:35]<+camerongray> Yeah, job diectory sites
[14:36]<+camerongray> They have a default cover letter in the box :P
[14:36]<@BC_Programming> oh wow
[14:36]<@Mulreay> http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/2272/g9tg.png
[14:36]<@Mulreay> love always on top
[14:36]<@Mulreay> Nothing better to do
[14:36]<@BC_Programming> I hate applications that do that
[14:36]<+camerongray> Guy was dead funny "Send your CV in Word, or PDF - I cannot open random formats, nor do I want to compile your LaTeX"
[14:37]<+camerongray> Mulreay: Nice!
[14:37]<@BC_Programming> I always use PDF
[14:37]<+camerongray> Yeah
[14:37]<@BC_Programming> I used to use word but somebody was all "we can't open your formats nigga"
[14:37]<@BC_Programming> well I'm paraphrasing
[14:37]<+camerongray> "If you attatch your CV, make sure it is your and not a photo of your cat"
[14:37]<+camerongray> your CV*
[14:38]<+camerongray> "Use a proper email address, not fluffybunny56@aol.com"
[14:38]<@BC_Programming> "bc_programming@bc-programming.com"
[14:38]<+camerongray> lol
[14:38]<+camerongray> "cameron AT camerongray.me" :P
[14:39]<@BC_Programming> hmm
[14:39]<@BC_Programming> maybe the IRC2HTML thingie should filter out E-mail addresses to stop scrapers
[14:39]<+camerongray> Yeah, that would be good :P
[14:39]<+camerongray> The guy doing this presentation was very funny
[14:39]<@BC_Programming> and I could edit the script in Visual Studio because it supports CPython
[14:40]<+camerongray> "And get the company name right"
[14:40]<+camerongray> Oh yeah, forgot about that one!
[14:40]<+camerongray> "Check what is visible on your social media profiles"
[14:40]<@BC_Programming> heheh
[14:41]<+camerongray> Then went through a list of people in the room "Craig, what is with that hat" "Iain, you seem to like getting drunk in The Hive (trashy nightclub) a lot"
[14:41]<+camerongray> Guy did his research :P
[14:42]<@BC_Programming> I could apply as a road-side cleanup crew
[14:42]<@BC_Programming> "As a devout possumist, I believe in the sanctity of Roadkill"
[14:43]<@Mulreay> I truly don't like win8
[14:43]<@BC_Programming> I refuse however to run over or other wise smush an already expired piece of roadkill; As it says in the Book of Possum, "Smush Not, lest ye be smushed"
[14:44]<@Mulreay> win8 for me is for people of the 'next generation' they don't want to dabble in there computer they just want ease of use
[14:44]<+camerongray> lol
[14:45]<+camerongray> Seriously, give it a go, force yourself to use it - I HATED it at first, but now I actually like it
[14:45]<+camerongray> Just takes a lot of getting used to
[14:45]<@Mulreay> I can't even get/find appadata
[14:45]<+camerongray> Should be in the same place
[14:45]<@Mulreay> appdata*
[14:45]<+camerongray> In the address bar type '%appdata%'
[14:45]<+camerongray> Or in run - Winkey+R
[14:46]<+camerongray> Which I can't do because I don't have a winkey :P
[14:46]<+camerongray> Ctrl+Esc FTW!
[14:46]<@BC_Programming> like a paddle and a barrel of farts, however, that only get's you so far
[14:46]<@BC_Programming> And no I'm not sure if that makes any sense at all
[14:46]<+camerongray> lol!
[14:48]<@BC_Programming> heh they have a fax number
[14:49]<@BC_Programming> I think I can get MS to fax a Executive Recognition Letter directly to them heh
[14:49]<@BC_Programming> awww
[14:49]<@BC_Programming> it has to be mailed
[14:50]<@BC_Programming> I guess I could do that
[14:50]<@BC_Programming> can see the guy mulling over his choices
[14:50]<@BC_Programming> "if only there was some sign about which applicant I should pick"
[14:50]<@BC_Programming> "here's the mail"
[14:51]<@BC_Programming> "What's this? an ERL for that Fellow? This is the sign I was looking for. Quick, Paul, to the SQL-Mobile
[14:51]<@BC_Programming> "You mean your Ford Focus"
[14:51]<@BC_Programming> "Shut up Paul"
[15:04]<@Mulreay> New PC http://imageshack.us/a/img46/4058/wtik.jpg
[15:04]<@BC_Programming> mine looks cooler
[15:05]<@Mulreay> Mine was £250
[15:05]<@BC_Programming> well fair point
[15:06]<@Mulreay> With a 1tb HDD DVDwr with a 3.2 quad core
[15:07]<@BC_Programming> I dunno man
[15:07]<@Mulreay> And a free trainer
[15:07]<@BC_Programming> you got one shoe?
[15:07]<@BC_Programming> that may be undeniably faster than my PC, but see the thing is that mine is named TERATRON
[15:08]<@BC_Programming> I mean, you can't compete with that
[15:08]<@Mulreay> Yep, came in the box.. best way to explain in that picture]
[15:08]<@BC_Programming> well except with EXATRON or PETATRON I suppose, but then you'll just be taking the piss
[15:09]<@BC_Programming> oh wait... you actually meant a shoe?
[15:09]<@Mulreay> No it's an adapter
[15:09]<@BC_Programming> oh... now I'm disappointed
[15:09]<@Mulreay> Makes it go faster.. sort of like overclocking
[15:12]<@BC_Programming> hey look what I found
[15:12]<@BC_Programming> http://bc-programming.com/images/talkiemotivator.jpeg
[15:12]<@Mulreay> hahahah sweet
[15:13]<@BC_Programming> I'm checking out the images in my... images folder on my webhost
[15:13]<@BC_Programming> which would be easier if I didn't deny directory listing
[15:14]<@BC_Programming> oh wow I forgot about this
[15:14]<@BC_Programming> http://bc-programming.com/images/wither.png
[15:14]<@BC_Programming> That is so much creepier now for some reason
[15:15]<@BC_Programming> OK focus focus.... I need to finish this E-mail, THEN I can goof about
[15:16]<@Mulreay> That is a little OTT for an MC sprite
[15:16]<@BC_Programming> MC sprite?
[15:17]<@BC_Programming> The Wither spoke to me man... I'm like his chosen prophet
[15:17]<@BC_Programming> I mean sure he wants to eat my skin but that's just a metaphor
[15:17]<@Mulreay> heh
[15:18]<+camerongray> I've decided to reorganise my music - Folder with artist name, then all their tracks, getting a real pain when you have album folders with one track!
[15:19]<@BC_Programming> my music is only 29GB
[15:19]<@BC_Programming> I say only because others probably have more
[15:20]<+camerongray> Lets see how much I have
[15:20]<+camerongray> Sure I can beat you!
[15:21]<+camerongray> BINGO! 206mb!
[15:21]<@BC_Programming> also let us ignore that 5GB of that is MLP related music
[15:21]<+camerongray> lol
[15:21]<+camerongray> Most of mine is 320kbps with a couple at 256kbps so not low bitrate
[15:21]<@BC_Programming> some of them you wouldn't be able to tell though
[15:21]<+camerongray> Just a low number of tracks
[15:21]<+camerongray> oh, 26 items, woo!
[15:21]<@Mulreay> OK now I'm downloading java
[15:22]<@BC_Programming> Good luck mulreay
[15:22]<@BC_Programming> don't forget to uncheck ask
[15:22]<@Mulreay> Yeah, pet hate that
[15:23]<@BC_Programming> Oh I just noticed the 'threat' in the award package
[15:24]<@BC_Programming> "As someone who has previously received the MVP Award, we remind you that you have signed a Non disclosure agreement (NDA) that is on file at Microsoft Corporation and that the terms of the NDA remain active"
[15:24]<+camerongray> lol
[15:24]<@BC_Programming> "Talk about confidential information and the cute little bunny get's it"
[15:24]<+camerongray> What can't you tell us? - Oh, wait... :P
[15:24]<@Mulreay> OK WOW Minecraft runs sooooooo smooth.. where has this PC been all my life?
[15:24]<+camerongray> That was my literal thought process there
[15:24]<+camerongray> lol, told you it would be good :P
[15:25]<@BC_Programming> Yeah sometimes I forget what it's like to not be able to run games
[15:25]<@BC_Programming> but I'm starting to have issues as my poor compy ages
[15:25]<+camerongray> Aww, what's up with it?
[15:26]<@Mulreay> Runs at 103fps whilst gliding through my palace
[15:26]<+camerongray> Sweet! Not far off my 560ti!
[15:26]<@BC_Programming> naw it's just getting older so newer games don't really run so great
[15:26]<+camerongray> Make a video of your PC!
[15:26]<+camerongray> Ahh
[15:27]<+camerongray> Mulreay: What did you do case wise?
[15:27]<@Mulreay> I can build again... so happy
[15:27]<+camerongray> lol
[15:27]<@BC_Programming> Also the secondary Hard drive is failing, both hard drives are nearly full, the GPU idles at like 80 degrees centigrade etc
[15:27]<@BC_Programming> Mulreay: congratulations
[15:27]<@Mulreay> The case in that image was the one it came with
[15:27]<@Mulreay> camerongray

[15:28]<@Mulreay> ahh
[15:28]<+camerongray> Ahh, nice!
[15:28]<@BC_Programming> No look at mine
[15:28]<@Mulreay> lol
[15:28]<+camerongray> What about the fractal?
[15:28]<@Mulreay> Yeah, I want to do that.. bit scared of messing it up
[15:31]<@BC_Programming> "
[15:31]<@BC_Programming> Another consideration that reasonably might make any potential employer- including yourself - disinclined to further consideration may be as a result of my apparent lack of formal training, experience, and skill development, which is a result of my skills and abilities being self-taught. This is a reasonable consideration because the environment in which skills that are self-taught are acquired
[15:31]<@BC_Programming> is almost always very different from the sorts of environments where they would be applied; 'Self-taught' skills typically gravitate towards things that are "fun" to do, whereas business requirements do not discriminate needs based on what is 'fun', but rather on what gets the job done. One of the issues one can discover when hiring talent that has acquired skills in such a way is that they
[15:31]<@BC_Programming> are used to doing "what is fun" rather than "what is needed". I don't doubt that I still fall into this category but Being aware of the issue makes it possible to address it."
[15:32]<@BC_Programming> whatcha think, trying to address the whole self-taught 'issue'
[15:33]<@Mulreay> It reads like I wrote it
[15:33]<@BC_Programming> oh... that bad?
[15:33]<@BC_Programming> :P
[15:33]<+camerongray> Mulreay: it's fine - super easy!
[15:33]<@Mulreay> Very good BC_Programming
[15:33]<@BC_Programming> camerongray:I am not super easy... I need to be bought dinner at least
[15:34]<+camerongray> bahaha!
[15:34]<@Mulreay> and a cocktail
[15:34]<@BC_Programming> lol that reminds me
[15:34]<@BC_Programming> this one time
[15:34]<@BC_Programming> this girl asked me if I was single
[15:34]<@BC_Programming> and I said "obviously"
[15:34]<@BC_Programming> lol
[15:34]<+camerongray> MY firends try to influence me with computer stuff :P - No joke!
[15:34]<@Mulreay> Yeah that's nots good BC_Programming
[15:35]<@BC_Programming> well she thought it was funny. Then we shared a plate of clubbed seal
[15:35]<+camerongray> They are desparate to get me to go to this trashy club - So far if I go I'll get a Gigabit Switch, bundle of ethernet cables an old thinkpad and something else I forgot :P
[15:35]<+camerongray> Still saying no :P
[15:36]<@Mulreay> So you're an inuit and never told us?
[15:36]<@BC_Programming> but camerongray, you'll meet people that have absolutely no common interests with you
[15:36]<@BC_Programming> Mulreay: I didn't want to break up the band
[15:36]<+camerongray> lol, you say 'people' :P
[15:36]<+camerongray> You hear stories, every surface is wet
[15:36]<@BC_Programming> I'm half Polar Bear, Half Inuit. We are a troubled Bearple
[15:36]<+camerongray> lol!
[15:37]<@BC_Programming> After the penguin wars, we just couldn't fend off the Inuit Attacks
[15:37]<+camerongray> My friend who loves it kinda sums it up "Ah love hive, it's full ae fat birds"
[15:37]<@BC_Programming> we didn't expect the penguins to come all the way from Antartica
[15:37]<+camerongray> "The birds in other places are too posh"
[15:38]<@BC_Programming> I've never been inside a bar before :/
[15:38]<+camerongray> wow
[15:39]<+camerongray> I go all the time, we discuss football and sports, then argue about that football guy, plays for that united club, we then all get drunk and start fight
[15:39]<+camerongray> s
[15:39]<+camerongray> The last bit was a lie to make me seem normal
[15:39]<@BC_Programming> heh the next day
[15:39]<@BC_Programming> "OMG camerongray... did you get beat up"
[15:40]<@BC_Programming> "yeah but you should see the other guy!"
[15:40]<@BC_Programming> "What, you do a number on him?"
[15:40]<+camerongray> hehhe
[15:40]<@BC_Programming> "no... he was HUGE... the fact that I didn't wet myself right then and there is clearly a testament to my courage"
[15:40]<@Mulreay> camerongray you are the king of good information... MC works wonders
[15:40]<@Mulreay> just now need to download all the recording stuff
[15:40]<@BC_Programming> "I may have crossed the line when I said he reminded me of Richard Simmons"
[15:41]<+camerongray> lol, no problem
[15:41]<+camerongray> We sit discussing computer stuff :P
[15:42]<+camerongray> Sometimes an argument breaks out, thats when we all get out laptops out
[15:42]<@Mulreay> we don't get him.. to be fair BC_Programming
[15:42]<+camerongray> lol!
[15:42]<@Mulreay> as we don't know who he is
[15:42]<@BC_Programming> I think he's dead now actually
[15:43]<@BC_Programming> at least I sorta hope so
[15:43]<+camerongray> Come to think of it Mulreay - Any sign of who made your PC, out of interest?
[15:44]<@BC_Programming> God did it
[15:44]<+camerongray> lol!
[15:44]<@BC_Programming> "And yay, on the first day he did chooseth the motherboard, and it was good. and he looked upon it, and was pleased"
[15:45]<+camerongray> bahahah!
[15:46]<+camerongray> Mulreay: What are the full parts?
[15:46]<@Mulreay> How rude
[15:46]<+camerongray> hehehe
[15:47]<@Mulreay> It's hard to tell at the moment but will give you some basics
[15:47]<@BC_Programming> puncture repair kit on standby
[15:49]<+camerongray> Mulreay: Speccy might help
[15:51]<@Mulreay> 1tb HDD , 8gb DDR3 AMD A8-5600K 3.2ghz quad, and that's the important stuff
[15:51]<@BC_Programming> oh wow the award came with a diagram saying where to put the disc
[15:51]<@BC_Programming> like somebody could screw that up
[15:53]<@Mulreay> speccy has a 'install default browser' what are you trying to do to me camerongray?
[15:54]<@BC_Programming> camerongray you monster
[15:54]<@BC_Programming> He was your friend
[15:54]<@BC_Programming> and you turn around and do THIS
[15:55]<@Mulreay> He was, I'm so upset... I'm tired of being used by people.. I feel like a victorian hore.. you bastards
[15:56]<@BC_Programming> It's ok man, I'm here for you... we'll get through this betrayal together
[15:57]<@BC_Programming> Let the healing begin
[15:57]<@Mulreay> I doubt you will ever pretect me from the chaos that is camerongray, look at him and his Scottish/British ways.. discusting
[15:57]<@BC_Programming> I heard he likes pudding
[15:58]<@BC_Programming> Monster
[15:58]<@Mulreay> and a load od spelling mistakes
[15:58]<@BC_Programming> it's forgivable in this sort of distressing situation
[15:58]<@Mulreay> He once told me he would like to 'skype' bastard
[15:58]<@BC_Programming> you're mind is preoccupied asking itself the questions.... "Why... Why camerongray... after all these years... this betrayal"
[15:59]<@BC_Programming> but the room is empty. All you can hear is the echo of your own voice. and a lone duck approaches
[15:59]<@BC_Programming> with great anticipation, you await it's information
[15:59]<@Mulreay> I know how to turn my back on people but never has one felt so betrayed
[15:59]<@BC_Programming> "quack" it says
[16:00]<@BC_Programming> huh not sure how I managed to get a duck involved
[16:00]<@Mulreay> It's you, it's quite natuaral
[16:01]<@Mulreay> Oh and woe is me and that stuff
[16:01]<@BC_Programming> ducks to the left of me, mallards to the right
[16:01]<@BC_Programming> here I am, stuck in the fowl pew
[16:01]<@BC_Programming> huh that actually kinda works
[16:02]<@Mulreay> I am talking about a chap who is close to half my age.. maybe he's right.. Do you have a safehouse BC_Programming just incase?
[16:02]<+camerongray> lol
[16:03]<@BC_Programming> No Cracka I ain't got no safehouse
[16:03]<@BC_Programming> J piddly widdly Dawg
[16:03]<@Mulreay> Oh camerongray Murray WHOOOOOOO great result for Scotland and Britain
[16:05]<@BC_Programming> I've just realized that the French flag is a bar graph in three colours about what people like about France. the Blue bar is the Food. The Red Bar is the Wine. the Green bar, which is in the center, is the people.
[16:05]<+camerongray> Phew, not "Great victory for England"
[16:06]<@BC_Programming> Canada is part of the Commonwealth to you jerks
[16:06]<+camerongray> lol
[16:06]<@BC_Programming> I mean
[16:06]<@BC_Programming> we have the queen on our coins
[16:06]<@BC_Programming> what more do you want
[16:07]<+camerongray> tehehe
[16:07]<+camerongray> Seems like 'LM' really knows their stuff in CH, makes a change¬
[16:08]<@BC_Programming> God save the Queen, the lord has come, let Earth, receive three blind mice, hickory dickory dock!
[16:08]<@Mulreay> Convince neighbours theyre living in Facebook by saying if they dont hold a rose for an hour, they dont care about AIDS
[16:08]<+camerongray> bahaha!
[16:09]<+camerongray> "O' flower of Scotland, when will we see, your like again *mumble along to tune inserting the few words you remember*"
[16:10]<@BC_Programming> I find the first like of Oh Canada to be hilarious
[16:10]<@BC_Programming> "Oh Canada, Our home and native land"
[16:10]<@BC_Programming> Native land? REALLY?
[16:10]<+camerongray> hehehe!
[16:10]<@BC_Programming> I guess "Oh Canada, our Home we sorta annexed from the people for whom it was native land" was a bit long though
[16:10]<+camerongray> Flower of Scotland is fun - Everyone knows the tune but forget the words after the first couple of lines
[16:11]<+camerongray> Turns into mumbling along to the tune
[16:11]<@BC_Programming> I also like "True patriot love in all thy sons command"
[16:11]<+camerongray> Sounds very convincing though
[16:11]<@BC_Programming> I mean who does what their SON says
[16:11]<@BC_Programming> seems live a reversal of authority there
[16:11]<+camerongray> bahaha!
[16:12]<+camerongray> Our song is about a prickly weed :P
[16:12]<@Mulreay> If you want to 'feel' Scotland search the scottish tatoo on youtube
[16:12]<+camerongray> Oh yeah!
[16:12]<@BC_Programming> you know it's weird, I've of course had the anthem memorized for like my entire life, but only reciting it mentally now do I realize it's theologically based
[16:12]<+camerongray> Really good!
[16:13]<@BC_Programming> "God keep our land, glorious and free"
[16:13]<@BC_Programming> Though I guess it's hard to fit something else in there
[16:13]<+camerongray> Excelent I used to go and help out through Scouts - Didn't get tickets - Better!
[16:13]<@Mulreay> edinburgh tataoo
[16:13]<+camerongray> Stood at ground level right in front of everything
[16:13]<@BC_Programming> Bueatiful Tats
[16:14]<@Mulreay> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_ymELt1A_0
[16:14]<+camerongray> I remember filming it, but my camera at the time was so low resolution you can't really make anything out
[16:14]<+camerongray> Still an amazing view
[16:14]<@Mulreay> Can I just say though.. still a proud part of the 'British' army
[16:15]<+camerongray> lol, yeah
[16:15]<@BC_Programming> PASSCHENDALE
[16:15]<+camerongray> Ever been to see it?
[16:15]<@BC_Programming> wait is that what you linked
[16:15]<@BC_Programming> if that is what you linked I'm psychic because in all seriousness I did not follow the link
[16:16]<@BC_Programming> Somebody call James Randi
[16:16]<Rikai> no
[16:16]<@BC_Programming> DO IT
[16:18]<+camerongray> heheh
[16:18]<+camerongray> I've never been to the tattoo in the stands, but it is an amazing thing to see
[16:18]<@Mulreay> Yeah would love to see that live
[16:18]<+camerongray> Can sometimes even hear it from my house about 4 miles away!
[16:19]<+camerongray> The view with Scouts is amazing though - Don't see the top down stuff, but you are really up close in the action
[16:20]<@BC_Programming> yeah Zelda is a pretty cool game
[16:21]<@Mulreay> You have your place BC_Programming http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPZKb38LxUs I like rides at dysney
[16:22]<@Mulreay> I know before you say.. was joking
[16:22]<@BC_Programming> The Welsh Disneyland is a sheep tied to a pole
[16:22]<+camerongray> bahaha!
[16:22]<+camerongray> What would ours be?
[16:22]<@BC_Programming> a goat
[16:22]<+camerongray> "That ride is aff" would be a good description :P
[16:23]<+camerongray> "It's all aff - the ride is knackered and we jimmy cannea fix it"
[16:23]<@BC_Programming> dent it dun in eh, Wedge it down and aff it up and we'll be running sound
[16:24]<+camerongray> That is actually what happened at our theme park
[16:24]<+camerongray> Stuck on a ride for 30 mins
[16:24]<+camerongray> 2 guys about 18 standing thumping the control panel
[16:25]<+camerongray> Declared it had "Koncked oot" then spent 10 mins trying to get us back down
[16:26]<+camerongray> They did think it out well though - There are honestly shelters with vending machines in case it rains!
[16:26]<+camerongray> Well, "For when it rains"
[16:31]<+camerongray> Oh I love keyboard enthusiast sites! http://support.pckeyboard.com/ticket.php?track=RU4-9J3-1A6D&e=cameron%40camerongray.me&Refresh=57217
[16:31]<@Mulreay> British army could never lose with the scotts, English some reserves and probably we can add the Welsh
[16:32]<Rikai> they also make tea in their tanks
[16:32]<+camerongray> We can beat the English, you know with our blue faces and yelling freedom :P
[16:33]<Rikai> moo
[16:33]<Rikai> FOR FREEDOM
[16:33]<+camerongray> lol
[16:33]<Rikai> behave ChanbotVII :<
[16:34]<+camerongray> Even if Braveheart was inaccurate :P
[16:34]<@Mulreay> Indeed you can my Scottish brothers
[16:34]<+camerongray> Fighting in kilts 500 years before they were invented :P
[16:35]<Rikai> suuuure
[16:35]<+camerongray> lol
[16:35]<@Mulreay> The English invented the kilt fact
[16:35]<+camerongray> True
[16:35]<@BC_Programming> Canadians invented the Maple Syrup slurpee
[16:35]<+camerongray> But only Scots are manly enough to wear it :P
[16:35]<+camerongray> bahaah!
[16:35]<@Mulreay> hahaha camerongray
[16:36]<@BC_Programming> many enough to wear a skirt... interesting logic but ok
[16:36]<+camerongray> Mine was still made in scotland though :P
[16:36]<@BC_Programming> manly*
[16:36]<+camerongray> lol
[16:36]<@BC_Programming> OK hitting send
[16:36]<@BC_Programming> Preparing for future disappointment
[16:36]<+camerongray> lol
[16:36]<@BC_Programming> "Oh we want somebody with a car"
[16:37]<@BC_Programming> because you know you can just find a guy with a car and teach then C#
[16:37]<@BC_Programming> you totally can't hare a C# dev and then have them get a car at some point in the future
[16:37]<@BC_Programming> hire*
[16:38]<+camerongray> I remember my English friend was calling my kilt a skirt and everyone started getting pissed off at him - Them my Scottish friend came along "Oh nice, you're wearing a skirt too" and we laughed
[16:38]<+camerongray> It's fine if the person who says it isn't English :P
[16:39]<+camerongray> Then we pointed out the English guy was wearing a top hat - that shut him up
[16:40]<+camerongray> lol, second! http://www.imdb.com/list/TYPxAwnF7-0/
[16:49]<jamer> lol
