00:22 <@sasquatc4> could be good cheap server fodder
01:34 <@Evilpig> how bad is it that my last interview with vanderbilt had three of these questions? http://theoatmeal.com/comics/interview_questions

02:32 < Mercster> plus, where did AOL get $350million
02:32 < Mercster> im imagining the CEO searching couch cushions
02:42 < Bahhumbug> investors
02:42 < Bahhumbug> not a bad profit for her; started with $1M USD; ended up selling for $350M USD.
03:16 <@droops> Mercster, its from old people still sending them a check every month

08:28 < Dickie> Good morning!
08:28 < Dickie> Who wants hugs?
08:28 <@Sheath> me
08:29 < Dickie> All right, just sign your name on the sheet in the break room.
08:37 <@Evilpig> Dickie: Dolemite LOVES hugs
08:37 <@Evilpig> bare chested man hugs
08:38 <@Sheath> mmm
08:38 <@Evilpig> he secretly wants them from coil too.  but pantsless
08:40 < Dickie> Nothing wrong with that.
08:52  * oddball headdesks over the owner's new idea for our servers.
08:53 <@oddball> Instead of just moving them to a new datacenter of unknown reputation due to cost, he wants to terminate the contract with SunGard early, move the servers into a closet here for a month or two, then move to the new datacenter.
08:56 <@oddball> Which would require us to at least buy UPS's to support them and a new airconditioner.  Oh, and possibly a rack to store the servers.
08:56 <@Evilpig> lol
08:57 <@Evilpig> who needs cooling and battery backup.  live life on the edge!
08:57 <@oddball> Not to mention the company wide downtime required for the move and having to remap the .1.x subnet here.
08:58 <@oddball> Oh fuck, forgot... we may need to run a new circut to handle the power needs of the servers.
09:00 <@oddball> Aaaaaand I doubt our dataconnection can handle the extra bandwidth needs.
09:01 -!- epoxy [~ls3@71-15-26-216.dhcp.hlrg.nc.charter.com] has joined #se2600
09:01 <@Evilpig> that is nothing that stringing together several power strips won't fix
09:01 <@oddball> heh
09:03 <@Evilpig> gotta figure out what to do about my email filtering then I will be ready to cut over from my old server to my new hosting box
09:14 <@Evilpig> who in here is active with nlug?
09:15 <@CRasH180> me
09:16 <@CRasH180> Bahhumbug is as well. Well, with the #nlug channel :)
09:16 <@Evilpig> we want to get nlug active with PN this year and want to see if anyone there would be willing to do some xxxxx101, 202, 303 type talks 
09:16 <@oddball> I was honestly under the belief that nlug had quietly died.
09:17 <@oddball> happy to hear that I was wrong.
09:17 <@Evilpig> if you listen to ware. we're dead
09:17 <@CRasH180> No, we are not dead. Look at nlug.org and look at the list of past meetings
09:17 <@CRasH180> Not dead by quite a bit
09:18 <@oddball> Cool.
09:37 <@sasquatc4> http://www.projectmessiah.com/x6/shop.html
09:37 <@sasquatc4> in case anyone is interested in 3d stuff, sellin their regular/pro versions for 10/40, instead of 500/1200

16:32 < uSynx> omg, ive done nothing but look at dimonds for the past 3 hours
16:33 < uSynx> diamonds
16:33 <@CRasH180> why?
16:34 < uSynx> engagemnt rings
16:34 <@CRasH180> Are you infatuated with diamonds? ahhh
16:34 < uSynx> i need to figure out how acceptable it will be to just ask my gf to goto a mall and help me pick out something she would like
16:34 < uSynx> then ill buy it online
16:34 <@CRasH180> lol
16:35 <@CRasH180> good luck with that
16:35 < Bahhumbug> you are making far too much out of this.
16:36 < Bahhumbug> Go to the mall, poke around, head to a jeweler, browse / window shop.
16:36 < uSynx> i did some of that today
16:36 < uSynx> i think i've basically picked out what i like, i just need to confirm she likes it too
16:37 < uSynx> already sent an email to her sister
16:37 < uSynx> im thinking .91 or so carat round cut
16:38 < Bahhumbug> I meant take her with you when you go.  Get an idea of what she likes.
16:38 < uSynx> oh
16:39 < uSynx> well she obviously knows what i am up to
16:39 < uSynx> so thats a good idea for this weekend
16:39 < uSynx> im a noob at this ish, and i dont want to ruin the specialness/surprise for her

16:40 <@CRasH180> No surprise if you take her with you
16:40 < Bahhumbug> I really think you're investing too much strss in this.
16:40 <@CRasH180> Time to make a decision
16:40 < Bahhumbug> stress as well.
16:40 <@CRasH180> me too
16:40 < Dickie> What's the worst that could happen?
16:41 < uSynx> i just want it to per perfect
16:41 < uSynx> be
16:42 <@CRasH180> It will never be perfect
16:42 < Dickie> But it'll be fine
16:42 <@CRasH180> exactly
16:43 < Dickie> Don't fret over the perfectly choreographed scene in your head, cause that shit ain't happenin'
16:43 < uSynx> oh the proposal, shit i hadn't thought of that
16:43 < uSynx> this entire situation is fucked
16:44 < uSynx> she was going to move down here as soon as i got back from my deployment, no talk of engagement, although i was thinking about it...
16:44 < uSynx> then her friends talked her into the mindset that if i wasn't willing to commit she shouldn't move
16:45 < uSynx> i want to marry her so i dont think im being pressured into anything, but its more of a time crunch now
16:45 < uSynx> as i want to purpose before i leave
16:46 < Dickie> Then do it.
16:46 <@CRasH180> Tell her how you feel and everything will be fine. You are stressing over this too much
16:46 < Dickie> Seriously.
16:46 <@CRasH180> If you love each other, everything will work out. Even if it is not perfect
16:46 <@CRasH180> Hell, life is not perfect
16:46 < uSynx> thanks
16:47 < uSynx> just so long as i can make her happy most of the time im golden
16:47 < uSynx> ;)
16:47 < Dickie> I proposed on Christmas morning in front of her whole family, and her deaf grandmother ruined the surprise by practically yelling it out
16:47 <@CRasH180> lol
16:47 < Dickie> But who gives a shit?
16:47 < Dickie> It's a cute story.
16:47 < Dickie> Everything worked out.
16:49 < uSynx> haha
16:51 < Dickie> I said some corny shit about love and forever and what not.  But no one remembers that.  (Thank God)
16:52 < uSynx> hehe
16:53 < uSynx> thanks, i'm calming down a bit

16:54 < Dickie> If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't do it in front of a bunch of people.
16:54 < Dickie> That shit's embarrasing.
16:55 < Dickie> And if her friends keep running their mouths, chokeslam them
16:55 < Dickie> Then she'll love you even more, because you're passionate
16:56 < Dickie> Maybe flip a few tables
16:56 < Dickie> Bitches love flipped tables
16:56  * Dickie clocks out
16:56 <@CRasH180> cya

18:34 < uSynx> holy fuck balls
18:37 < Mercster> uSynx: where are you deploying?
18:38 < uSynx> end ish of next month
18:39 < Mercster> uSynx: where
18:39 < uSynx> Guam
18:39 < Mercster> what branch are you in?
18:39 < uSynx> AF
18:39 < Mercster> ok well first of all id like to thank you for your service
18:39 < uSynx> not so much a deployment as a troipcal vacation without my loved ones
18:39 < Mercster> secondly, im worried about your battle readiness, considering you sound like such a lady when talking about this ring business
18:39 < uSynx> haha
18:39 < Mercster> the woman is supposed to care about the ring, not the man
18:40 < Mercster> listen
18:40 < Mercster> just get something simple and elegant
18:40 < Mercster> if she loves you, she'll love the ring
18:40 < Mercster> stop being such a worry wort
18:40 < uSynx> ya, its got to mean something that i want to make it perfect for her though right
18:41 < Mercster> when you're 4 years into marriage and you hate each other, you think one of the things she hates about you is the ring?
18:41 < Mercster> yer livin' in dreamland, man
18:41 < Mercster> the ring is just "look, i spent way too much money on something frivolous for you"
18:41 < Mercster> that's all
18:41 < Mercster> perfect?
18:41 < Mercster> again
18:41 < Mercster> that's ladytalk
18:41 < Mercster> nothing in life is perfect
18:41 < Mercster> *nothing*
18:41 < Mercster> nothing evenh comes close
18:42 < Mercster> just do the deed and again, if she loves you, she'll love the ring
18:42 < Mercster> it's not worth the stress
18:43 < Mercster> sounds like she has you wrapped around her finger, as it were
18:43 < Mercster> unless all this stress is coming solely from you, in which case, you're wasting your time and effort
18:43 < Mercster> and probably your health
18:43 < Mercster> if i had a woman who was so concerned about the ring that it was giving *me* ulcers, i wouldnt touch her with a ten foot pole
18:44 < Mercster> does she care that much, or are you *imagining* that she cares that much?
18:45 < uSynx> its me being a perfectionist
18:45 < uSynx> not her
18:45 < Mercster> ok well get over that, it'll be a good skill to learn for when you're actually married
18:47 < uSynx> true
18:47 < uSynx> thanks
18:47 < Mercster> yup
