00:03 <Surreal_Nightmares> I kinda want to test host an IRC server and a bot on it.
00:06 <Tirek> I've ran an IRC server on my machine once.
00:06 <Tirek> It wasn't pretty.
00:06 <Tirek> But it was mine.
00:07 <Schism> I can see a use for localized IRC servers, but I'd honestly be more likely to use someone else's, in of course a password-protected channel. Not least because hosting an insecure IRC server is a preeeeeettty bad idea.
00:07 <Schism> Good idea to test a bot locally, though.
00:09 <Surreal_Nightmares> Nukes win.
00:09 <Schism> Mind, having a localized IRC server is kind of counterproductive in a small apartment, where I can just walk ten feet and knock on a door. Less problematic in, say, a large house.
00:09 <Tirek> I'd run a localized IRC server just to have a communication bridge across the house.
00:09 <Surreal_Nightmares> Heh.
00:10 <Not-Renny> This^
00:10 <Tirek> Because screw face-to-face contact.
00:10 <Tirek> That's like, apocalypse-level hell-no.

00:10 <Schism> :S
00:12 <Schism> I'm reminded of a story where the protagonist set up a program called 'lanring' on all their boxen, which pinged everything on the network - audibly - until turned off, to get the attention of folks so that they would check their IRC. It came in handy when said protagonist was bedridden due to massive physical injuries.
00:12 <Tirek> Nice.

00:29 <Schism> Counterfeit foods are on the rise, and it's a multi-billion-dollar industry.

00:30 <Schism> In Italy, the mafia have discovered that counterfeit olive oil is much more profitable than any mere /drug./
00:30 <Cepheid> Also, you don't want to fight a moose.
00:30 <Cepheid> Moose are dangerous.

00:35 <Librarian> i dont even do life insurance

00:35 <Librarian> i want to cover everything
00:35 <Cepheid> The funny thing about that example is that it'd probably work just due to shock value alone.

00:36 <Schism> YOU! Did you know that you could die... RIGHT NOW?! *knife*

02:47 <Romleon112> im not even ugly. girls in my town always say im ugly, but i dont see how im ugly
02:48 <Tirek> They're bullies you don't want to date them.
02:48 <Tirek> Hell, the world might even be a better place if they jumped off a cliff.
02:48 <Schism> Tirek has it right. You don't have to be running 100 pullups a day; brush your teeth, comb your hair, get a haircut now and then, talk to people.
02:49 <Tirek> Work out though. Do like an hour every two days.

02:49 <Schism> And yeah, at least walk around the block a few times, it doesn't hurt and you can read a book while you do so.
02:49 <Tirek> Get an MP3 player and listen to music while you do it, too.
02:49 <Schism> Would you believe that reading a BOOK while you walk actually garners you more attention than anything else?
02:50 <Tirek> You're an easy target, so stop setting yourself up.
02:50 <wobniaR> Read a book

And make sure you rub that into their very soul that they're terrible people and wouldn't have dated you now.

02:54 <Schism> You're a horrible person, but that's good advise regardless. A relationship implies two people working to make each other better.
02:54 <Schism> advice*
02:54 <Tirek> Basically.
02:55 <Tirek> And none of these people care about you, just themselves.
02:55 <Tirek> And that's mostly how teenage romance starts anyway.
02:55 <Schism> You try and help her (or him), and he (or she) tries to help you. That's the long and the short.
02:56 <Romleon112> im probably one of the very few guys in my town who care about women for their personality, and their looks
02:56 <Tirek> That's not important.
02:56 <Tirek> That's what I said about myself too, when I was in high school.
02:56 <Tirek> And it's probably not true.
02:56 <Romleon112> most guys in my town only care about womens looks
02:56 <Tirek> Ask yourself this
02:57 <Tirek> If you care about their personality, how is it you let them dupe you thrice?
02:57 <Schism> I've a better question, Tirek.
02:57 <Schism> If personality is all that you want, why not date a great guy?
02:59 <Romleon112> it wasnt girls who tricked me into thinking i was in a relationship. it was guys who thought it be funny to mess with me, seeing as how im the most unpopular person in my school

03:02 <Schism> You'll get better. You need, however, while you do, to better yourself. Don't just let yourself fall into a pit, that's what I did. Focus on bettering YOURSELF. Take a run in the morning, don't eat so much junk food, scrub up every morning. Honestly.
03:03 <Schism> Do NOT focus on how much 'worse' you're doing than other people. Focus on how much better you're doing today than yesterday.
03:03 <Schism> I am not even making this up: if, every day, you better yourself, then every day you're better than you were before, and that makes a HUGE difference.

03:08 <Schism> You will do fine, Romleon112, if you keep this in mind. Just treat each day as a chance to improve. Again, I sound like a freakin' self-help manual, but it's the truth. Take a walk, study, do what it takes to make sure you're a better you than the day before.
03:08 <Twilight`Sparkle> hello, S_N.

03:09 <Surreal_Nightmares> I stay away from romantic relationships.
03:09 <Schism> So? That's three more friends than many. Heck, think of it this way: how many of those high school romances are going to remain after 12th grade?
03:10 <Twilight`Sparkle> (.09%)
03:10 <Schism> You consider these folks good friends? True friends?
03:10 <Schism> People you're going to want to keep with you through your life?
03:11 <Romleon112> yeah
03:11 <Schism> Then that right there is three more friends than most people keep after they finish high school.
03:12 <Schism> All of us, we've gone through the institution, and trust me when I say, it is NOT the best years of your life. College? Grand, brilliant, if you make it that way, instead of being FORCED into it.
03:13 <Romleon112> after hs im not going to college
03:13 <Schism> Spend your 11th and 12th grades making yourself better. You already know how, just do it. And don't get fet up about what other people have, because it's what YOU have that will matter.
03:14 <Schism> Fine, but don't go pistachios about what others are seeing now.
03:15 <Schism> You know, when I lived in Texas, do you have any idea how many teen pregnancies there were in Denton County? That's not something YOU wanna go through, I'm sure.

03:19 <Schism> Here's my point. If you judge yourself by your peers, you will always - ALWAYS - come out behind. If you judge yourself based on your past performance, then if you always keep moving forward, you'll come out ahead.

03:20 <Schism> Thelema5, back me up here. And hi.
03:20 <Thelema5> I'm catching up on the conversation
03:21 *** Quits: Cobalt_Blitz (Cobalt@Pony-39pn3u.res.rr.com) (Quit: Leaving)
03:22 <Thelema5> Romleon112, it sounds to me like you need to stop looking around you and instead focus forward.
03:23 <Thelema5> I see you reference your town quite a bit; if you're riding a bike between two trees do you focus on the trees, or the space between them?
03:24 <Romleon112> space between them?
03:25 <Thelema5> Exactly. Don't focus so much on your obstacles. Keep your eyes on where you /want/ to be, and shoot in that direction. To hell with everything in the periphery.
03:26 <Schism> And if something gets in your way, KICK REASON TO THE CURB-- er, I mean, find a way to remove that obstacle, be it through study, effort, or simple perserverence.
03:27 <Romleon112> i just hate being single.
03:27 <Thelema5> School, hometown, short-term relationships... this are things which seem very important when you're in the middle of them, but which appear insignificant once you put some distance between them and yourself.
03:27 <Schism> I hear ya. So instead of hating yourself for that, just focus on what will bring you closer to a relationship, and solve those issues in the way.
03:29 <Schism> And, like I said -- reach out, say 'hi' to someone. If you want a fling, say so, let them know that you're interested in them. Don't wait for someone else to make the first move.
03:30 <Romleon112> every girl in my town hates me though
03:30 <Schism> You sure about that? Ever ask them why?
03:30 <Romleon112> they have me blocked
03:31 <Schism> You need a good 'why' before you can get things going.
03:31 <Surreal_Nightmares> That sounds like they have you blocked on social media.
03:31 <Schism> So ask them, in person, why they have you blocked. A solid answer is always a good first step.
03:31 <Surreal_Nightmares> ^
03:31 <Surreal_Nightmares> Plus it's harder for them to evade the question, I think.
03:31 <Romleon112> they'll just tell me to leave them alone
03:32 <Schism> Do you know that for sure, or are you just guessing?
03:33 <Surreal_Nightmares> Not everyone is the same so you should not assume that the people you ask will always say the same thing.
03:33 <Thelema5> The world is a very large place, Romleon112. localized thinking is a bit old-fashioned. Don't expect to connect with people just because you happen to be in close spacetime proximity with them. I've lived in my town for 10 years, but I don't know anyone who lives here. Most of my friends are people I know online; it's easier to find people with a shared mindset and motivations on a global scale.
03:33 <Romleon112> in all my classes when we get to pick new seats i always end up having to sit by myself, because they say-dont sit near us, we dont like you
03:33 <Thelema5> Sounds like you live in a crappy town.
03:33 *** FaythDiscing is now known as Fayth
03:33 <Surreal_Nightmares> ^
03:34 <Thelema5> Make the most of it while you have to, in time you'll find a more supportive path.
03:34 <Schism> If you ask someone, 'Why don't you like me?', and they hem and haw before they come up with an answer... that means that they don't really /have/ an answer.
03:34 <SunsetShimmer> Also, may I just add...and as much as this is going to suck to hear...this isn't really what anyone can call a 'dating advice' channel.
03:34 <Schism> We're not really doing dating advice. More social information.
03:34 <Romleon112> ^
03:35 <Schism> Romleon112, to be honest, ask. Ask people why they're not fond of you. Take their answers constructively, and use them to better yourself.
03:35 <Schism> Don't just treat them as an attack.
03:36 <Schism> If you wonder why girls titter behind your back, get a good answer from them. If they can't provide one... they're just not worth listening to.
03:37 <Schism> And, before you take things too far, 'You're a nerd' is not a constructive answer. Don't change the things you like doing, that won't benefit anyone.
03:38 <Romleon112> they'll just say something like - You're stupid, you're annoying, you're ugly, etc
03:38 <Schism> Those are nonanswers.
03:38 <Thelema5> The simple fact is that they are likely only treating you that way because everyone else does, and so they assume the worst without ever really thinking about it.
03:38 <Schism> Ask sincerely. Ask them, 'Why do you think that?' And if they can't answer, then you can disregard them as they disregard you.
03:39 <Schism> But never believe, /ever/, that someone who answers with a pat little statement like that has ever given you two thoughts.
03:40 <Schism> And never think that you should overreciprocate.
03:40 <SunsetShimmer> if they consider you 'not worth their time', they're not worth yours.
03:41 <SunsetShimmer> and certainly not your mindspace or attention
03:42 <Thelema5> I will point out, though, that if they are able to provide specific reasons, don't go on the defensive. Don't contradict them, or argue. Just nod, and say thank you. Tell them that you're working on improving, and that their feedback is sincerely appreciated. Because specific reasons can be evaluated, and addressed if needed.
03:43 <Schism> Indeed. That's just what constructive criticism is. Something which you can use to construct a better you.
03:43 <Romleon112> they'll give stupid reasons
03:43 <Schism> Why do you think they're stupid reasons?
03:44 <Thelema5> If you're told that you have terrible body odor, for instance... perhaps re-evaluate your grooming habits. Ask yourself if there is room to improve. Simple adjustments to your daily routine could have a significant impact over time.

03:44 <Romleon112> they'll call me ugly, stupid, annoying, etc
03:45 <Schism> Again, those are nonconstructive. Ask them why they think you're ugly - WHY they think you're stupid, et cetera.
03:45 <Romleon112> they'll say because
03:45 <Surreal_Nightmares> Dig deeper, basically?
03:45 <Thelema5> So follow up with "Can you give me an example of a time when I annoyed you? I'm working on improving, and your feedback is greatly appreciated"
03:45 <Schism> Then you can disregard them. They can't think beyond stage 1.
03:45 <Schism> Is that really the sort of girl you want in your life?
03:46 *** Sleepai is now known as Snapai
03:46 <Thelema5> Probably not, Schism, but it seems like the local gene-pool is a bit on the shallow end.

03:47 <Schism> Romleon112, what matters is what comes /after/ the 'because'.
03:48 <Romleon112> they wont say anything after the because
03:48 <Schism> Then there's nothing they /can/ say, and you can ignore them and move onwards.

03:58 <Thelema5> The long and short of it, Romleon112, is this: Your problem, like most problems, is probably solvable. Like solving other problems, it will take ingenuity, hard work, and perseverance. You'll have to decide if you're willing to really tackle it, and whether it's actually worth the time and effor to gain the approval of a bunch of people who seem to be small minded jerks.
03:58 <Romleon112> yeah
03:59 <Thelema5> Inside?
03:59 <Schism> On the plus side, a problem-solver tends to be on the sexy side.
04:00 <Schism> Solve one problem with yourself, you find yourself more readily able to solve more. And more. Until you're actually a better you, and - this is a big thing! - more attractive in general.

04:02 <Schism> For what it's worth, that's not sarcasm.
04:04 <Schism> Call it some scope of insecurity or a weird bent of evolution, but we tend to be more attracted to those who portray themselves as successful, and one of the biggest signs of success is the ability to solve problems. Problems like, well, how we're naturally oily, stinky, and generally ape-like.
04:04 <Schism> And those who have money, or power, or a lot of fans are a great big 'DING!' on our ape-o-meter.
04:05 * Thelema5 smells of marshmallows, thank you.

04:24 <KooK> The first 2 I thought were pretty good, 3rd one (with Pinkie, Maud, and Rarity) was eh
04:25 <Thelema5> Yeah, the characters were spot on, but the episode lacked direction, and the pacing was off.
04:27 <Thelema5> I understand that they needed to underscore how much Pinkie likes her party cannon, but I think one or two scenes of her using it to punctuate the dialog would have been sufficient. By the 5th time the gag was tiresome.
04:27 <SunsetShimmer> That was likely the point
04:28 <KooK> That didn't bother me
04:28 <Thelema5> Also, it now that I know how big Pinkie's hammer-space is I have to wonder what else she may be keeping in there.

04:44 <FruitNibbler> Depends on the tub and amount of work needed
04:44 <Thelema5> I think he wound up spending a couple hundred bucks on parts to get it up and running- well worth it, in my perspective.

09:32 <Vladiolus> Anyway the /inside/ of the monitor was digusting, despite the rest of it being clean

09:34 <ConfusionRift> Monitors are the least cleaned, in comparison to other peripherals.
09:34 <Vladiolus> Yeah, but the inside. It’s weird.
09:34 <Vladiolus> It took me like 30 minutes just to get in there and like, there’s dirt.
09:34 <Vladiolus> HOW
09:35 <unicodingunicorn> portals
09:35 <ConfusionRift> There's usually a vent somewhere, which tends to attract dirt, especially by the heat and charge.
09:37 <Vladiolus> Oh yeah there are vents actually. The dirt wasn’t near them though.
09:37 <Vladiolus> Most of the grime was in the sealed front bezel.

09:39 <ConfusionRift> Grime. Hmm. Probably humidity or a form of oxide.
09:39 <Vladiolus> It’s a PowerMac g4 Dual Processor unit if you care at all, o3o.
09:39 <Vladiolus> It’s from 2003 and would’ve cost 5 grand new. Has a neat story too.
09:39 <unicodingunicorn> so even if it accumalates at a very slow rate, a lot will accumalate over the years
09:39 <Vladiolus> In 2003 a very rich man wanted a computer. He bought this. It’s totally loaded to the max possible for the time. He enjoys his computer, he really does.
09:39 <unicodingunicorn> ooh really?
09:39 <Vladiolus> Guess what happened?
09:39 <unicodingunicorn> hmm?
09:40 <Vladiolus> and yis really, 1ghz dual, 2 gigs of ram.
09:40 <Vladiolus> A year in his wife discovers he’s cheating, and gives this 5 grand supercomputer to a friend. They have no use for it- they prefer PC- and it sits in a closet for 13 years.
09:40 <Vladiolus> That’s how I got a computer worth 300 dollars for 80. I plan to resell it to a collector in a few weeks afer playing with it.
09:42 <unicodingunicorn> does it work?
09:42 <Vladiolus> Completely.
09:42 <unicodingunicorn> ooh
09:42 <Vladiolus> Fantastic condition too. There’s a scuff on the LCD and the desktop is mint.
09:42 <unicodingunicorn> gimme your address
09:42 <Vladiolus> lol
09:42 <unicodingunicorn> you will totally not find it missing
09:42 <Vladiolus> pfff
09:42 <Vladiolus> If you’re gonna steal stuff, steal my desktop first.
09:42 <Vladiolus> Easier to replace.
09:43 <Vladiolus> I had no idea you cared about vintage computers, unicodingunicorn.
09:43 <Vladiolus> This is a PPC system, so it’s even more obsolete than most.
09:43 <ConfusionRift> Opportunism?
09:43 <Vladiolus> ?
09:43 <unicodingunicorn> I just find computers really fun
09:43 <unicodingunicorn> the more obscure, the funner
09:44 <Vladiolus> oh man you should totally come over
09:44 <Vladiolus> I got a Pentium 3/2 setup downstairs for retro gaming, and a PowerMac G3 too.
09:44 <Vladiolus> A second Pentium 3 with the ‘tualatin’ server processor that was faster than the pentium 4 until 2003 (lol)
09:45 * ConfusionRift looks at his super ultra common Pentium 3, and shrugs.
09:46 <Vladiolus> PIIIs are getting less common, they’re going past ‘old’ and into ‘vintage’ these days.
09:46 <ConfusionRift> I guess.
09:46 <Vladiolus> 486s are insanely hard to find now.
09:46 * unicodingunicorn drools
09:47 <Vladiolus> lol unicodingunicorn were you here when i had the ibm 5155?
09:47 <ConfusionRift> Right now, I can go to a warehouse and find a good triple digit amount of office decommissioned P3s.
09:47 <unicodingunicorn> nope

09:47 <Vladiolus> bonus mom
09:48 <Vladiolus> goddangit ConfusionRift you’re lucky.
09:48 <Vladiolus> You can probably sell those for a very good profit on amibay
09:48 <Vladiolus> Heck go look for AGP cards or older stuff, I might pay you.

09:48 <Vladiolus> Hauling this thing home on a bus was hilarious.
09:49 <unicodingunicorn> aww you´re so lucky
09:49 <ConfusionRift> Thing is, it's a little far away from where I live. And I have no car or transportation.
09:50 <Vladiolus> I sold it for 150, bought it for 100.
09:50 <Vladiolus> Had fun and made a profit o3o
09:50 <ConfusionRift> The other place I could look would be in a flea market.
09:50 <Vladiolus> What often happens is I’ll find listings by people that don’t know oldputers, and don’t put the right keywords into their listings.
09:50 <ConfusionRift> Problem is that a lot of people are opportunists in here as well.
09:50 <Vladiolus> So I buy them, mess with them and clean them, and put a better listing up directed at others like me.
09:51 <unicodingunicorn> you have money~
09:51 <Vladiolus> I never bet on reselling though, my limit for this sorta thing is 100 bucks and I accept that I might never make that back.
09:52 <ConfusionRift> "Hey look, Earthbound for $2. Man, wish I had the cash bills on me. Sucker asks for a higher price elsewhere." (leaves, returns a few days later and sees it at a much higher price)
09:54 <Vladiolus> Capitalism, we all gotta get them bills.
09:55 <Vladiolus> The money I made from that 5155 repaired my broken desktop.
09:55 <ConfusionRift> Unfortunately, I collect, not resale. :P
09:55 <Vladiolus> Yis, you are the end-point people like me are looking for.
09:56 <Vladiolus> Pref. if you forgot how much a dollar is worth.
09:56 <Vladiolus> God I had a rich buyer once that more or less threw money at me for a commodore 64 and some other stuff I picked up for like 20 bucks.
09:56 <Vladiolus> He met my price instantly, I wish I had aimed higher o3o
09:56 <Vladiolus> I made enough money to unironically buy a GTX 970
09:57 <ConfusionRift> I did have that one collector after my Gen 1, but I was young and it was my only source of entertainment.
09:58 * ConfusionRift shrugs at it.
09:59 <Vladiolus> If you like it, keep it.
09:59 <Vladiolus> I never did sell my macbook even when I had a buyer, I just like it too much. I don’t even want a ~new~ one, this is my baby forever.
09:59 <Vladiolus> (until it breaks)
10:00 <ConfusionRift> That's what I did. I still have it. Though, not in very good conditions. It went from the tropics to the desert, so weather was not too kind to it. Also, cabling back then was terrible.
10:00 <ConfusionRift> The cable tangle phenomenon was a constant issue.
10:01 <unicodingunicorn> Vladiolus: now I imagine you cradling your macbook softly
10:01 <Vladiolus> I do take good care when I clean it >.>
10:02 <Vladiolus> Some people dun like Apple stuff, that’s totally fine w/e.
10:02 <Vladiolus> I do. Love the hardware, software is hit or miss but mostly hit. I am happy.
10:02 <ConfusionRift> Burn it! I mean, people have their taste. :P
10:03 <Vladiolus> What really made me stick was the service. “My screen has a dark spot” ~replaced for free.~ “It happened again.” ~replaced for free, and you got a new battery just ‘cause.
10:03 <Vladiolus> It actually has the dark spot again but the warrenty ran out years ago, just part of the first-gen retina tech I guess. It’s not very major.
10:03 <Vladiolus> I had an Asus once.
10:04 <Vladiolus> It physically fell apart within a year and the serial sticker fell off, Asus refused service.
10:04 <Vladiolus> 1000 dollars.
10:04 <Vladiolus> Anecdotes aren’t stats, I know- but heck if I’ll ever buy from them again.
10:05 <unicodingunicorn> I tripped over the cable of my asus netbook last week, now the head is completely deformed
10:05 <unicodingunicorn> gonna see if they would replace it after my exams are done
10:06 <Vladiolus> Doubt it- that’s not a factory defect.
10:07 <unicodingunicorn> eh might as well try
10:07 <Vladiolus> Of course.
10:07 <ConfusionRift> Either they will say that was a user error and say nope, or it could be classified as failed quality assurance.
10:08 <Vladiolus> Try to not tell them you did it- just that it /is/ that way.
10:08 <Vladiolus> Not “I tripped on it.” but “My thing is bent."
10:08 <Vladiolus> You’re not lying, just only telling them what they need.
10:08 <ConfusionRift> "It bent by normal use."
10:08 <unicodingunicorn> ^
10:08 <Vladiolus> They don’t need to know or how or why it’s bent, only get into that if asked.
10:09 <Vladiolus> In which case yes, it was just normal use.
10:09 <ConfusionRift> Exactly. It's vague, but it's nto a lie.

10:18 <ConfusionRift> Total problems: Fried the PSU and the original RAM cards went out.
10:20 <ConfusionRift> The monitor also fried, but that one was gonna happen at some point.
10:21 <ConfusionRift> It was a rather early monitor that was on its last legs when I got it.

11:37 <Divide|Tech> My usual response to this is, 'If you can't be bothered to read the schedule and inform us until 8 PM on the day before, you should not act surprised when we have our own obligations OUTSIDE work to fulfill.'
11:38 <Divide|Tech> Followed by an unspoken, yet clearly implied 'jerkwad.'
11:39 <Divide|Tech> CR: Did your boss use the words 'team player'?
11:40 <ConfusionRift> He's too lazy to do changes and uses the auto-scheduler, which is no good. So the scheduler is taking into account associates that have let and moved to somewhere else, so there are gaps.
11:40 <ConfusionRift> Divide|Tech: All. The. Frigging. Time.
11:41 <Divide|Tech> Autoschedulers need a handler, otherwise they get out of line and do this sort of nonsense.
11:42 <ConfusionRift> He can go ahead and shove it. No manager is a team player, especially when it's to their disadvantage.

11:43 <ConfusionRift> We need associates that can do the work, but no. They expect few associates to deal with the madness.
11:43 <ConfusionRift> Others are utterly useless, and I wish they would just get fired.
11:44 <DARK> hello =)
11:44 <ConfusionRift> Hello there.
11:44 <Divide|Tech> CR: The best part is that if the schedules are being bounced around like pingpong balls, the useful people are going to seek employment elsewhere, while the useless ones sit like the inertia they are.
11:45 <ConfusionRift> The worse ones are either relatives or suck-ups, and the workers just receive piles of tasks.
11:46 <ConfusionRift> And don't get me started about gender bias.
11:48 <Divide|Tech> Indeed... one moment, please.

16:43 <Sour_Sweet> Even though reinventing the wheel is silly
16:43 <Snapai> That's what citation is for.
16:43 <Sour_Sweet> You can't always do that
16:43 <Snapai> Unless you're just pasting it in as if it was your text.
16:43 <Sour_Sweet> Because some formats don't allow that
16:43 <Snapai> Which of course is not allowed.
16:45 <Sour_Sweet> Also even when citation is allowed (which comes useally inevitably in higher education) you have restriction on what sources you're allowed to use even if that doesn't make sense
16:45 <Sour_Sweet> restrictions*
16:46 <Snapai> I still don't see how open source or creative commons cause issues with schools, unless people don't understand that academic policy is not the same thing as copyright.
16:46 <Snapai> And then that's just students being dumb.
16:47 <Snapai> Equivalent of trying to use freedom of speech to argue against being banned in a forum. X3
16:47 <Sour_Sweet> I'm not saying you should claim work done by someone else as your own, but at least when I was in school using someone else's work at all (even with footnotes) wasn't allowed
16:47 <Snapai> Depends on the teacher and the assignment.

16:50 <Divide|Tech> It's tax season up here in Canadia, and you know what that means for us... PRINTERS! Printers left, right and center, especially on Windows 10.
16:50 <Sour_Sweet> I thought we pretty much figured out how printing works 6_9
16:51 <Sour_Sweet> If your printer isn't in the most dusty place ever (like mine) you should rarely have issues.
16:51 <Twilight`Sparkle> Windows 10 hasn't.
16:51 * Sour_Sweet also uses Windows 10
16:52 <Twilight`Sparkle> See, the thing about working in a call center is as follows
16:52 <Sour_Sweet> You get all the silly stuff :P
16:52 <Twilight`Sparkle> Maybe 5% to 10% of people will actually have a problem.
16:52 <Sour_Sweet> Expensive though just to have a chat
16:52 <Twilight`Sparkle> But that's 5% to 10% of the population of an entire country.
16:53 <Sour_Sweet> Oh 5% in that regard.
16:53 <Twilight`Sparkle> let's put some more realistic numbers in place

16:56 <Future> nice calculations! ;)
16:57 <Twilight`Sparkle> Basically, even if the printers work almost all the time...
16:57 <Twilight`Sparkle> that small small percentage of people for whom it doesn't work equates to a lot of work for Schism and his coworkers.
16:57 <Future> So how was your guys' morning?
16:58 <Twilight`Sparkle> I walked the irradiate wasteland and destroyed a super mutant camp.
16:58 <Sour_Sweet> But since the process for how to get a printer running hasn't changed in a decade how do people still fail? It should get better not worse after all. Windows 10 has zero impact there
16:59 <Sour_Sweet> It's annoying though in a few other areas
16:59 <Future> My OC stays in her base and builds robots because she was raised by raiders and escaped when they invaded the ministry of Technology
16:59 <Future> :3
16:59 <Twilight`Sparkle> Windows 10 totally has an impact.
16:59 <Future> She stole some stuff
16:59 <Twilight`Sparkle> It's called "driver incompatibility"

17:06 <Twilight`Sparkle> I'm just saying I've run into problems where drivers don't work with Windows 10 myself.
17:07 <VinylScratch> and if HE has, Sour_Sweet...what about the casual users?
17:08 <Sour_Sweet> I'm not suggesting it doesn't happen. But even if it does there is a good the manufacturer has fresh drivers which aren't all that difficult to find. If there are no newer drivers than the hotline probably can't help either
17:08 <Sour_Sweet> good chance*
17:08 <Twilight`Sparkle> well, sure.
17:08 <Twilight`Sparkle> but the hotline is supposed to try.
17:09 <Twilight`Sparkle> also, there are still a /lot/ of people who don't even know what a driver is.

17:13 <wobniaR> You're expecting people to read
17:13 <wobniaR> That's too much to ask
17:15 <Sour_Sweet> The nice thing is with most problems you can just exactly as it is google your problem and you'll probably find a good answer.
17:16 <Sour_Sweet> And here is the secret: Since IT doesn't know every single thing on earth more of than not that's exactly what they do as well.
17:16 <Twilight`Sparkle> This is true.
17:17 <Sour_Sweet> more often*
17:17 <Sour_Sweet> It's just that with years of experience you get a lot better at googling.
17:18 <Sour_Sweet> (And of cause there are those issue you know or at least got a general idea of what the problem is)
17:18 <Sour_Sweet> E.g. "Hey my e-mail doesn't work"
17:18 <FN_away> Sour_Sweet, a specialist is someone who knows where to look it up
17:19 <FN_away> Erudite experienced expert would be someone who would know stuff on the spot

17:21 <wobniaR> Being able to google search the problem you're looking to solve is the first step
17:23 <Sour_Sweet> The thing that bugs me is that it is apperently not on people's horizon to search for stuff. The amount of times I've been asked how to do X or Y in Excel.
17:24 <wobniaR> And that's why we get paid
17:24 <wobniaR> To search for things people won't bother to
17:24 <Sour_Sweet> Excel even comes with help pages that are actually not that bad. You don't even need to use the evil Google :P

19:39 <OctaveSymphony> 'round here critical service employees aren't allowed to :P
19:39 <OctaveSymphony> Their only "strike" method is refusal of rescheduling and/or overtime refusal
19:39 <Sour_Sweet> I think they are required by law to help in case of emergencies here.
19:40 <Thelema5> What are the penalties if they refuse?
19:41 <Sour_Sweet> Even when they're not "on duty". Refusing to treat a patient can cost them their license afaik.
19:42 <Sour_Sweet> Which means you cannot work as a doc.
19:42 <OctaveSymphony> I think there's actually legal penalties to it as well
19:43 <wobniaR> The doctors going on strike in the UK are junior doctors, ones in training and still in school
19:43 <wobniaR> Senior doctor's are taking over their duties during the strike
19:43 <OctaveSymphony> I don't think that makes a difference for how it works here though, if they work in critical care things they are under special contracts

19:44 <Thelema5> It reeks too much of forced servitude and state slavery.
