Some people pronounce it, instead of spelling out each letter. 09:49 < aestetix_> Well sure 09:49 < aestetix_> What I mean is, mIRC.... of all clients. 09:51 < aestetix_> Then again, I'm guessing most military tech workers don't spend all day long on IRC like I do... 09:53 <@Corydon76-work> Well, yeah, but these are all Windows users... 09:53 <@Corydon76-work> The idea of using Windows in a situation where you need the computer to be reliable and secure seems funny to me 09:54 <@Corydon76-work> especially in a situation where it's clear none of the users really understand how to use a computer 09:54 < aestetix_> I think there are versions of xchat and bitchx for windows, though I could be wrong. 09:55 <@Corydon76-work> Again, these are casual users, not hardcore users. 09:55 < aestetix_> But yeah. If they are running windows computers using mIRC, it sounds like they may have more problems than Manning leaking docs. 09:56 <@Corydon76-work> That they were not supposed to install any executable programs on their machines (other than those approved)... seems hokey that this wasn't a Windows policy, and that they had administrator access 09:56 <@brimstone> isn't Merc-Chat what Mercster uses? 09:57 < aestetix_> This reminds me of the time I got arrested, and the poor officer was trying to explain the tech behind the system that looks up my info in the FBI database 09:57 < aestetix_> I was like "oooh cool computers! can you tell me how it works?" and he was like "ur uh I click this button and it makes magic?" 09:59 < aestetix_> oh another gem 09:59 < aestetix_> "He described Merc-chat as being instant messaging software.

(saw a lock smith do it to my door) 10:41 <@oddball> at least with the deadbolts, you have to either break out the lock picks or kick the door in. 10:41 <@Corydon76-work> I suspect that only works if the door jamb is sufficiently loose or if the door opens inward 10:41 <@Corydon76-work> Err, outward, rather 10:42 <@oddball> nope, inward. As for the doorjam being loose, see your statement of typical quality of installation. 10:42 <@Corydon76-work> I wasn't talking about quality of installation. I was talking about the utter lack of anything approaching security in the walls. 10:43 <@oddball> ah, ok 10:43 <@oddball> Well, I would talk further about this, but I have to get to an interview. 10:43 <@Corydon76-work> Most houses built today are meant to be good at retaining heat, not secure against an intruder 10:43 <@Corydon76-work> Good luck 11:56 <@the_hugme> there was a great website I found a while back that sold biometric door locks for the home 11:56 <@the_hugme> you could also buy it in 'parts 11:57 <@the_hugme> so you could purchase the magnetic locks separately... or the door arm... etc... 12:06 <@Corydon76-work> That's very much similar to putting barbed wire and guards at the front door and leaving the loading dock open and unmonitored. 12:07 <@Corydon76-work> Bigger and better locks don't solve the problem that you can simply go around the door. 12:27 <@Mirage> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Duct_tape_apollo17.jpg 14:15 -!- sync350 [~sync@c-24-30-78-161.hsd1.ga.comcast.net] has quit [Quit: This computer has gone to sleep] 14:23 <@the_hugme> brick houses are still 100 times better than anything we build with today.. and they aren't THAT much more expensive... 14:29 <@Corydon76-work> Structurally, no.
