09:06 <@TheLightCosine> what kind of shit goes down at outerz0ne?
09:07 <@unixfg> we all got drunk last time and don't remember.
09:08 <@TheLightCosine> lol
09:08 <@TheLightCosine> looks like a bunch of the 615 people go
09:09 <@Corydon76-dig> TheLightCosine: it's the same deal, basically, as PhreakNIC, only smaller and more cozy
09:10 <@Corydon76-dig> and minus the 9th floor activities
09:10 <@brimstone> plus the 3rd floor activities!
09:10 <@brimstone> oh wait, those aren't official
09:11 <@Corydon76-dig> brimstone: Yeah, but those are basically room parties
09:11 <@TheLightCosine> i missed phreaknic so i dun really know exactly what eyr talkin about
09:12 <@Corydon76-dig> TheLightCosine: one room presentations (1 track conference), vendors in the back, and room parties after hours.  That's it, in a nutshell.
09:14 <@Corydon76-dig> 2 years ago, we went to Dave & Buster's on Saturday night.
09:15 <@TheLightCosine> sounds like fun
09:15 <@TheLightCosine> how long a drive is atl from ehre anyways?
09:15 <@Corydon76-dig> Yes, it realy is
09:16 <@Corydon76-dig> Depends on traffic, but if you hit it at the right time, you can make it down there in 4 hours.
09:16 <@Peaches84> hey guys
09:16 <@TheLightCosine> hey peaches
09:16 <@Peaches84> and gals
09:16 <@Corydon76-dig> If you don't, you could end up spending an additional 2 hours in Atlanta traffic
09:16 <@TheLightCosine> uck
09:16 <@Corydon76-dig> (seriously)
09:16 <@Peaches84> oooo fun stuff
09:17 <@Corydon76-dig> Their beltway CRAWLS at rush hour
09:17 <@Peaches84> really bad to
09:17 <@TheLightCosine> when is the new one, maybe i'll get to go to THIS con
09:17 <@Peaches84> like were talking under 15 mph
09:17 <@TheLightCosine> if i can avoid having chidlren in the hospital
09:17 <@Corydon76-dig> Tentatively, the first weekend in March
09:19 <@TheLightCosine> i feel trapped in an endless cycle down ehre still of go to work, sleep during the weeknd, go back to work heh.
09:20 <@Corydon76-dig> What is it that you do?
09:21 <@TheLightCosine> officially I am an 'IT Support Coordinator' for UK and Rest of World Operations
09:21 <@TheLightCosine> which is a really nice way of saying i'm a help desk monkey
09:21 <@Corydon76-dig> Untied Kingdom, or University of Kentucky?
09:21 <@TheLightCosine> United Kingdom lol
09:22 <@TheLightCosine> so I work from 9am-6pm GMT
09:23 <@TheLightCosine> unofficially i do a whole bunch of other stuff for the company as well
09:23 <@TheLightCosine> mostly in the form of datamining, and some programming
09:24 <@Corydon76-dig> Ah... You're the duct tape for the IT dept
09:24 <@TheLightCosine> that's one way of putting it lol
09:24 <@TheLightCosine> another way is i'm IT's bitch
09:26 <@TheLightCosine> "Dave we need to know how many RSA licenses are assigned to people who are no logner with the company, or someone who hasn't logged in in over 2 years, but you have to exclude any external client users, and we need to know what office each one is located in"
09:28 <@TheLightCosine> typically, they have one set of information and there are several relational peices of data for disparate sources that they want me to somehow buttfuck all together and export out into a readable report
09:28 <@Corydon76-dig> Heh, an accounting job
09:28 <@TheLightCosine> it's actually alot of fun
09:29 <@Corydon76-dig> Well, if that's the way you view it, hey, that's great that you're able to manage it.
09:30 <@TheLightCosine> *shrug* i find it really fun to manipulate data and make it all come togetehr
09:30 <@Corydon76-dig> Personally, it drives me up the wall when I'm concentrating on a programming job, only to be interrupted by a "this has to happen right NOW NOW NOW" task
09:30 <@TheLightCosine> most of the time though i just reset people AD passwords, or ad them to security groups etc
09:31 <@I-MOD> Corydon76-dig, that sounds like my typical day
09:31 <@TheLightCosine> well programming is different tho
09:31 <@I-MOD> context switching sucks
09:31 <@Corydon76-dig> or worse, interrupting a "this has to happen right NOW NOW NOW" with another "this has to happen right NOW NOW NOW"
09:31 <@TheLightCosine> i am just an am-geek coder but i don't like ebing itnerrupted during coding either
09:31 <@TheLightCosine> lol
09:32 <@Corydon76-dig> At one of my previous jobs, I had 2 bosses, both EVPs, and at one time, I got 2 jobs, both NOW NOW NOW jobs, and I had to make a choice
09:33 <@TheLightCosine> besides, with the exception of the stuff i did for the AD Forest Integration a couple months ago, none of that extra work has tkane more than a few hours to script
09:33 <@Corydon76-dig> and neither of them were happy about it
09:36 <@TheLightCosine> heh
09:36 <@TheLightCosine> eventually i'll get a promotion and work on important things...soon i hope
09:37 <@TheLightCosine> I'm hoping my current little side project i'm on pushes me into a full time "big kid" job heh

20:33 < shadowmoss> cert training expected, and paid for
20:33 <@rhia> cool -
20:33 < shadowmoss> I'm really sad to leave Nashvegas
20:34 < shadowmoss> I'm thinking I'll be back after my year that I guaranteed that I'd stay out there
20:34 <@rhia> eh, you might just like it out there
20:34 < shadowmoss> and, I see the NL has notified that he's homeless now :)
20:35 <@rhia> you;re a civi, right?
20:35 < shadowmoss> yes, and much too old to pass for anything else
20:35 < shadowmoss> I'm older than the vast majority of even the senior soldiers
20:35 <@rhia> how do you keep landing the military gigs?
20:35 < shadowmoss> gives me some leverage
20:35 < shadowmoss> contracting
20:36 <@rhia> what firm?
20:36 < shadowmoss> For what it's worth, they say that unemployment in HSV is 1 percent now
20:36 < Mercster> i contracted as a unix admin on an air force base once
20:36 < Mercster> strange world
20:36 < Mercster> but not un-cool
20:36 < shadowmoss> QuintiQ
20:36 <@brimstone> shadowmoss: it went up
20:36 <@brimstone> it was negative
20:36 < shadowmoss> or, locally it's Westar
20:36 < shadowmoss> yeah, I was going to try for HSV, but this was offered and I decided to go with it.
20:37 < shadowmoss> our corporate office is in HSV
20:38 < shadowmoss> BTW, Westar/QinetiQ is hosting a job fair down there I think next week sometime
20:38  * shadowmoss grabs brimstone and gives him a hug, then dunks him in the bit bucket
20:38 <@brimstone> weee!!
20:39 < shadowmoss> Mercster: yes, very strange world for those of us used to corporate
20:39 < Mercster> everything moves slloooowww
20:40 < shadowmoss> Given that I have applied to both Germany and Afghanistan for similar positions, Tacoma isn't all that far away
20:40 < shadowmoss> yes, and it has to follow protocol
20:40 < Mercster> yep
20:40 < Mercster> lots of documentation on documentation
20:40 < Mercster> covering the documentation
20:41 < shadowmoss> yep, and that's what the CSSAMO does, document the hardware
20:41 < shadowmoss> among other things
20:41 < Mercster> 6 inch thick 3ring binders full of mostly whitespace ;-)
20:41 < Mercster> yeah
20:41 < Mercster> i actually didnt mind it, im a process/procedure minded person
20:41 < Mercster> drove some ppl nuts
20:41 < shadowmoss> yeah, it will drive me nuts.  I'm a 'make it work, figure out why later' person

22:38  * dasunt gets drunk.
22:39 <@scort> what else is ne w
22:40 <@scort> look at me im drunk
22:40 < Mercster> im 1 beer away from stopping drinking
22:40 < Mercster> for awhile anyway
22:43 < dasunt> Figured out why I'm so clumsy lately.
22:44 < Mercster> you're a drunk?
22:45 < Mercster> i remember tending to end up with more bruises that i couldnt explain when i drank heavily
22:45 <@sdodson> I end up with bruises and broken bannisters
22:45 < dasunt> Mercster: Nope.  Not from drinking.
22:45 < Mercster> ive cut down a lot and just been drinking beer, but ive got a pain in my side that doesnt bode well
22:46 < Mercster> so im calling it quits
22:46 < Mercster> dasunt: brain tumor?
22:46 < dasunt> nope.
22:46 < dasunt> Rather simple.
22:46 <@sdodson> dasunt: How do you know if you're always drunk?
22:46 < dasunt> I'm using my left hand for most tasks now.
22:46 < dasunt> sdodson: I sober up most of the day.
22:51 < Mercster> dasunt: why left hand?
22:52 < dasunt> Mercster: I've been avoiding my right due to pain.
22:53 < Mercster> ah
22:54 < dasunt> I didn't realize it.
22:54 < dasunt> I've just been dropping stuff over the past few weeks.
22:56 < Mercster> you know how i solve that problem
22:56 < Mercster> dont pick stuff up
22:57  * Mercster cracks open his last beer 
23:01 < dasunt> http://xkcd.com/
23:02 < Mercster> all webcomics blow, except for jerk city
23:02 <@sdodson> I don't bother with xkcd after the stupid ass sudo one.

23:04 < dasunt> sdodson: You are gay.
23:05 <@sdodson> omg, bush's little goodbye press conference, while I know most things were taken out of context, it was depressing seeing it on The Daily Show.
23:05 <@sdodson> WTF people voted for that man!?
23:05 < dasunt> first time or the second?
23:06 < Mercster> i voted for him twice
23:06 < Mercster> i wish i could have voted for him again
23:11 <@sdodson> heh, I got a copy of gNewSense
23:18 < dasunt> Did you vote for McCain/crazylady?
23:20 < Mercster> yep
23:21 < dasunt> He losted.  :/
23:22 < Mercster> that's democracy for you
23:26 < dasunt> We got Obama/idiotguy instead.  :/
23:27 < dasunt> Well, look on the bright side, at least your state will seat both senators in the new congress.
23:27 < Mercster> winston churchill once said that the greatest argument against democracy was a 5 minute conversation with the average man
23:27 < Mercster> i tend to agree
23:28 < dasunt> Democracy is the worst possible government, save for all other possibilities.
23:29 < Mercster> the bright side is, obama cant possibly fuck up as much as people want him to.  once you become president, you're faced with reality instead of the naive and radical wishes of the electorate
23:30 < Mercster> people expect whatever they want of obama, but as soon as he gets his first intelligence briefings as whatnot, a collective "oh, crap" moves throughout the administration
23:30 < Mercster> and things will be mainly ok
23:30 < Mercster> im much more worried about the legislative branch than the executive
23:32 <@sdodson> oh my, this guy has packaged Chuck Norris facts as an RPM to use with fortune.
23:32 < dasunt> http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2009/jan/14/al-gore-democrats-us-news
23:33 < dasunt> You can guess the leanings of that author.
23:34 < Mercster> dasunt: ya, 'the guardian'
23:35 < dasunt> One of my major concerns with Gore (with the green movement in general, actually) is that they have some lofty pie-in-the-sky ideas about clean energy.
23:38 < dasunt> Great thread:  http://www.mplsbikelove.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=1380&start=15
23:46 <@sdodson> dasunt: you guys are fucking nuts up there
23:48 < dasunt> It's really not that hard to do that up here.
23:48 < dasunt> Amazingly, doesn't feel that cold either.
23:48 < dasunt> When I was shoveling out my driveway today (-4°F or so), I was getting frost on my eyebrows and eyelashes.

23:52 <@scort> cry
23:53 < dasunt> -31°F!
23:53 < dasunt> Woohoo!
23:53 < dasunt> International Falls is only 2 degrees colder.
23:53 <@scort> diaf so you can stop bitching about the cold
23:54 < dasunt> i'm not bitching.
23:54 < dasunt> I did manage to leave over $50 of cold weather gear up north though.  :(
23:54 <@sasquatc4> try grand forks nd, the woman kept tryin to get me to go there this week, told her she was fuckin insane to want to go up there in the middle of winter
23:55 < dasunt> not too bad right now.
23:55 < dasunt> i lived in Fargo for awhile.
23:55 < dasunt> Worst thing out there is the wind (especially in winter) and rain in summer.
23:57 < dasunt> Fargo will hit -29°F tomorrow night.  Same as Grand Forks.
