09:52 <@the_hugme> we have a contract position open here for someone with linux knowledge....
09:52 <@the_hugme> 3-6 months -- they would have to be able to learn a system extremely fast

10:20 -!- vyrus001 [~Vyrus001@209.159.137.115] has joined #se2600
10:59 <@Catonic> yeah, about that...
11:00 <@Catonic> I'm going to go with "slightly unrealistic expectations"
11:00 <@Catonic> since IT isn't as smart as it used to be, and picking a system up takes about a month or more depending on complexity...
11:00 <@Catonic> But I may also be cynical.
11:01 <@Catonic> But I have something of the mind of an engineer aboutthe problem.
11:27 -!- emwav [~me@173.226.92.195] has quit []
11:33 < MaxieZ> I suppose it depends on how standard the box is.
11:34 <@Catonic> Put it this way... if I had to put one of my coworkers into that position, I don't think they would be able to pick it up in less than a week unless they were at gunpoint and did nothing but eat, sleep, stare down the barrel and learn.
11:34 <@Catonic> The devil is always in the details.
11:35 <@Catonic> There's processes and procedures to learn, where the lines are drawn, who does what, who has to be requested, who has to request, etc.
11:58 < MaxieZ> I just think it would be hard to get a linux admin who's any good willing to work for a contract job.  I could be wrong.
12:00 <@Dagmar> It's ABOUT FUCKING TIME
12:00 <@Dagmar> http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-04-11/chief-s-shame-on-you-prompts-agreement-on-stolen-phones.html
12:00 < GateKeeper> Title: Chief’s ‘Shame on You’ Prompts Agreement on Stolen Phones - Bloomberg (at www.bloomberg.com)
12:03 <@the_hugme> Whether you agree with it or not it's what we need... I'm offering work which any linux admin whose unemployed is going to want to take
12:03 -!- rangerz [~mwalker@c-98-211-44-193.hsd1.tn.comcast.net] has joined #se2600
12:04 <@the_hugme> We have three big projects coming up and I need someone who can take care of some of the smaller projects while the rest of the team can concentrate on the larger ones... they don't have to know the entire system but they need to know some basics of linux
12:05 <@the_hugme> a basis of understanding of linux should get them through. the projects include syslog, nfs home directories and some authentication services
12:06 <@the_hugme> plus quite a bit of nagios
12:26 <@Dagmar> sad.
12:26 <@Dagmar> I won't lie... I've done a lot of drugs over the years... most of which did exactly what the guy that sold them to me said they would.
12:27 <@Dagmar> But today's a great example of how it takes only _one_ "normal" dose of antihistamines and cold medicines, sold over the counter, to turn me into an uncoordinated, slurring boob.
12:28 <@Dagmar> I've managed to whack a doorframe with my shoulder twice this morning, and I probably coulnd't convince a cop I'd had nothing to drink without a breathalyzer and a notary public
12:28 < MaxieZ> I got a head cold myself.  I find myself in midsentence dosing off.
12:28 < MaxieZ> Within six months carriers are to create a national database so companies can lock out phones, tablet computers and other stolen devices, according a summary distributed by the FCC.
12:28 <@Dagmar> MaxieZ: Off The Hook should be celebrating this week
12:28 < MaxieZ> That doesn't sound like a good thing.  However, the spirit of it is fine.
12:29 <@Dagmar> We have waited for SO long for them to do something that wasn't merely fucking Orwellian with that information it's ot even funny
12:29 <@Dagmar> It's one thing to be able to clone an ESN/MIN pair
12:30 <@Dagmar> It's entirely another for the same relatively simple shit to continue working for over a decade
12:30 < MaxieZ> I don't see why you need a database to disable my phone.
12:30 <@Dagmar> It's not the database that's the issue
12:30 < MaxieZ> Dear Verizon.  My phone was stolen turn it off.
12:30 <@Dagmar> It's that currently, the carriers do not do _shit_ about phones that weren't stolen from their customers.
12:30 < MaxieZ> Like they don't know me and my number.
12:30 <@Dagmar> If someone steals your Verizon CDMA phone, they could go tomorrow and sign up for Sprint or Cricket with it.
12:31 <@Dagmar> Whether you reported it stolen or not matters not one bit to other carriers.
12:31 <@Dagmar> All they care is that they just got a new customer out of it
12:31 <@Dagmar> In theory, this shit will now change.
12:32 <@Dagmar> Hopefully we'll see some of these incredibly shifty cell phone shops close up after they start having their customers report that when they tried to register the "clean ESN" phone they bought that the carrier came back and told them "That ESN was never issued to that phone" and/or "That phone was reported stolen last month."
12:32 <@Dagmar> ...cuz they'll probably report it to the police first, and demand a refund second.
12:33 <@Dagmar> This is pretty much part of the reason why you see so many phones listed in Classifieds that were reflashed to Cricket
12:34 <@Dagmar> This doesn't go on with Sprint or Verizon very much because they're more likely to say "No, we don't support any phones we didn't make a profit from the sale of."
12:35 <@Dagmar> ...but at the moment, if you've got a tri-band Verizon or Sprint CDMA phone that's hot, you can go and sign it up on the other provider, and they won't say a thing other than when your next bill is due.
12:35 < MaxieZ> Sad.
12:35 < MaxieZ> Capatilism at its finest.
12:36 <@Dagmar> Hell I may call in if they don't mention it
12:36 <@Dagmar> (to OTH)
12:38 < rangerz> Dagmar: as much sense as that law makes
12:38 < rangerz> don't worry.... TN can now teach the "Controversy" of science
12:38 <@Dagmar> We'll see about that
12:38 < rangerz> went into law today
12:38 <@Dagmar> You may note that I am *not* one of the vocal atheists out there suffering from some kind of victim complex.
12:39 <@Dagmar> I'm actually Agnostic/Discordian.
12:39 -!- the_hugme [~jallman@service.vendormate.net] has quit [Quit: Leaving.]
12:39 <@Dagmar> However, now I've got incentive to start _seriously_ tormenting the jackass idiot "Christians" who have decided to muck about in _my_ territory, i.e., "science".
12:39 <@Dagmar> Their fucking mistake.
12:39 <@Dagmar> ...and oh how shall I make them suffer.
12:40 <@Dagmar> I've got to do a little work to get back in touch with my inner asshole, but the gloves are going to be off this time.
12:41 <@Dagmar> We'll see if maybe I can find a way to force a case precedent definining the difference between an "obscenity" and something that just makes Christians really, really furious.
12:42 <@Dagmar> I was thinking maybe of starting with a flyer showing a halloween ghost costume nailed to a cross with the legend "You worship this?  Seriously?"
12:43 <@Dagmar> This message brought to you by the Council for Leaving Science to the Fucking Scientists.
12:46 <@opticron> Dagmar, please have someone do a documentary on your exploits, I'd love to watch it
12:48 <@Dagmar> Oh hell no
12:48 <@Dagmar> You NEVER want to leave recorded proof pointing to you as the culprit when you _really_ start to set about pissing people off deliberately
12:48 <@Dagmar> Motherfuckers will show up with pitchforks and shit
12:49 < eryc> i see a lot of words on my screen
12:49 < eryc> did someone troll dagmar
12:49 < eryc> there's lot of _underlining_
12:49 <@Dagmar> No, they just suggested something extremely ill-advised
12:50 < eryc> who did?
12:50 <@Dagmar> Also, high school teachers are now allowed to make your children stupider, willingly
12:50 <@Dagmar> opticron did
12:50 <@Dagmar> Dude when I was at MTSU I mastered the art of flyering most of the campuses corkboards without anyone seeing me at all
12:51 < eryc> oh, yea documentation is no good
12:51 <@Dagmar> For _good fucking reason_
12:51 <@Dagmar> At one point i was putting up flyers for a "Miss White MTSU Pageant"
12:51 < eryc> hah
12:51 < rangerz> lol
12:51 <@Dagmar> Yes that did *not* go over well with some people
12:51 <@Dagmar> The point needed to be made tho
12:52 <@Dagmar> MTSU was starting to accumulate rather a lot of racism towards white people in the "black" population
12:53 <@Dagmar> THat they were up in arms about a flyer with no actual backing, which very closely mirrored the design and style of the Miss Black MTSU Pageant flyers (for a reason!) was very telling
12:53 <@Dagmar> I was told some black preacher had to actually stop and tell his congregation to chill the fuck out because they were being trolled (but not in those terms)
12:54 <@Dagmar> People would have _come_ for me
12:54 <@Dagmar> No thanks
12:54 <@Dagmar> By all means stir shit up, but when it comes to serious topics, _never_ let anyone you don't trust know it's you.
12:55 <@Dagmar> The FBI may well monitor this channel, but they at least can be trusted to not go flying off the handle about shit
12:57 <@Dagmar> If even a couple of people snapped out of their mindset and realized they were traveling down a road of actual hatred, racism, and hypocricy as a result of those flyers tho, their mission was accomplished.
12:58 <@Dagmar>  s/hypocricy/hypocracy/
12:58 <@Dagmar> ah fuck it
12:58 <@Dagmar> anthistamines
12:58 <@Dagmar> Back onto the bed for me
13:09 < rangerz> Dagmar: hold up
13:09 < rangerz> oh well
13:28 < oddball> Damnit... just realized that I do know someone that could go for the helpdesk position that BenTheMeek was looking to fill.

17:42 <@Dagmar> when did sprint lower their data plan price.
17:42 <@Dagmar> Weird
17:53 <@Dickie> Tomorrow I become a dad.
17:53 <@Sheath> too soon
17:54 <@Dickie> Technically, yes. 5 weeks too soon.
17:55 <@Dagmar> Get 'er drunk
17:55 <@Dagmar> They can postpone delivery
17:56 <@Dagmar> Okay this sucks a fat cock
17:56 <@Dagmar> Even with the $10 "fuck you" fee, Sprint is still cheapest

21:37 <@Dagmar> Interesting.
21:38 <@Dagmar> Just got back from Best Buy and found something stuck to my shoe
21:38 <@Sheath> tp
21:38 <@Dagmar> It was someone's 2Gb microSD card.
21:38 <@brimstone> was it your dignity?
21:40 <@brimstone> anything good on the card?
21:41 <@Bahhumbug> pr0n
21:43 <@Dagmar> It was blank, apparently.
21:44 <@am1n0> photorec
21:45 <@brimstone> yeah, duh
21:45 <@Dagmar> Nope.  Zeroes as far as the eye can see.
21:45 <@Dagmar> I suppose it's new
21:46 <@am1n0> that's no excuse
21:46 <@Dagmar> I know.
21:46 <@am1n0> scanning e- microscope please
21:46 <@Dagmar> WTF are kids these days coming to
21:46 <@Dagmar> There should have been some porn on here
21:46 <@am1n0> nothing but high resolution pictures of circuit boards
21:46 <@am1n0> how odd
21:47 <@Dagmar> The media has led me to believe that any given 16-year-old girl will take pictures of herself in the mirror within mere _seconds_ of being handed a new phone
21:47 <@am1n0> lol
21:47 <@Dagmar> As vicarious thrills go, this was very disappointing
22:31 <@Dagmar> Where do they sell this http://imgur.com/r/funny/Yk7eR

23:59 <@Dagmar> Okay.
23:59 <@Dagmar> Having played with it for a bit now, this phone is like a hallucination
23:59 <@Dagmar> I will now go to sleep
23:59 <@Dagmar> It's eerily thin and the display is insane
