00:29 <@Dagmar> Sweet crap there's a guy in ##Linux from _here_ pitching fit because he's trying to get help with a TrueAbility exam and failing at simple shit like moving files which have a particular file extention
00:29 <@Dagmar> LOOOOOL
00:37 <@sasquatc4> ill admit i dont know a whole lot about linux, but enough to do my job and how to actually use it
00:37 <@sasquatc4> but sweet jesus, you just gotta not be trying
00:37 <@Dagmar> I've already told him to stop embarassing our city
00:55 < aestetix> wait
00:55 < aestetix> how do you fail to do that?
00:55 < aestetix> Do you mean like mv *.avi?
00:57 <@Dagmar> Apparently it was a reading comprehension problem
00:57 <@Dagmar> He finally pastebombed the question into the channel
00:58 <@Dagmar> They were clearly hinting for a bash script that uses a case statement and deletes files that don't match one of the three extentions, and he failed on it in every possible way
00:58 <@Dagmar> Someone else was like "I think everyone in Nashville is high." and my response was "No, I can assure you that I'm not."
00:58 <@Dagmar> I couldn't get high enough to mess that up
00:58 <@Dagmar> I could be asleep and drunk and still type that out correctly.
00:59 <@Dagmar> ...claimed he _did this for a living_.
00:59 <@Dagmar> Best Buy really needs to slow their roll on the employee encouragement program.
01:01 < _NSAKEY> Heh. Worst Buy...
01:02 < _NSAKEY> That reminds me, I need to wear my Geek Squad shirt to the next meeting and troll the employees in the Best Buy Mobile store at the mall.
01:05 <@Dagmar> Oh yes...
01:05 <@Dagmar> I should mention... he mistakenly called "*" a _boolean_ at one point
01:05 <@Dagmar> We were like "WTF does a boolean have to do with mv?"
01:06 < _NSAKEY> Does he understand that he shouldn't publicly shame Nashville any more?
01:06 <@Dagmar> I hope so
01:06 <@Dagmar> I did tell him, "Dude, stop embarassing my city."
01:12 < aestetix> Dagmar: what is TrueAbility?
01:13 <@Dagmar> It's a testing site build by Rackspace people to put would-be admins through some certification-like questions to judge whether they have the chops or are just paste-monkeys
01:15 < aestetix> I have spent many hours yelling at idiot Rackspace admins :/
01:15 < aestetix> This explains why
01:24 <@Dagmar> You should scroll back to this afternoon when I was dealing with the DigitalOcean guy
01:25 < aestetix> I saw that.
02:38 <@Dagmar> I just had a wonderfully mischevious idea
02:38 <@Dagmar> Gotta find some ferms
02:38 <@Dagmar> er ferns
02:38 <@Dagmar> Ferns displayed publicly along with other plants, with nametags saying what they are.
02:38 <@Dagmar> Nashville _needs_ a reticulating splines display.
02:39 <@Dagmar> We'll see if it can break the General Robert E Lee Memorial Bridge record
02:39 <@Dagmar> Imma have to go into Opryland Hotel again
03:00 < aestetix> god

12:31 < aestetix> ok
12:32 < aestetix> what's the best thinkpad/lenovo to get?
12:33 <@opticron> one that doesn't come with PR fiascos
12:33 <@oddball> You enjoy your computers to come with spyware baked it?
12:34 <@opticron> especially self-reinstalling spyware!
12:35 < aestetix> uh
12:36 < aestetix> I would be installing my own OS...
12:53 < _NSAKEY> aestetix: Why do you want to give your money to Chinese fascists?
12:53 < _NSAKEY> Vote with your wallet.

12:57 <@Dolemite> But he's German, now

13:51 <@Dolemite> oddball: ping
14:13 <@Mirage> Dagmar: I'm sure you got notified also but, just in case, I just forwarded a job email from Robert Half to you.
14:43 <@Evilpig> probably the same one I deleted this morning
14:44 <@Mirage> "Linux/Unix/VMWare Administrator opportunity in Nashville!"...3-6 month contract-to-hire that pays around $35 per hour?
14:44 <@Mirage> (lol)
14:44 <@Evilpig> yup
14:44 <@Mirage> I think that would be less than the salary at VU
14:45 <@Evilpig> more than the noc
14:45 <@Mirage> yeah
14:45 <@Mirage> but that's unskilled labor..=P
14:45 <@Evilpig> better than nothing as well
14:54 <@oddball> Dolemite: I'm guessing I missed you.  PM me when you get a chance.
14:55 <@Evilpig> don't do it
14:55 <@Evilpig> he just wants to cyber
14:57 < aestetix> it looks like the Lenovo T450S is the way to go
14:57 < aestetix> jesus $35/hour?
14:58 < aestetix> and it's contract which means no benefits
14:59 <@Dolemite> oddball: Was looking to see if you might know where I could find a picture of a bellows gun.  Google Image Search comes up emtpy.
14:59 <@Dolemite> It's no big deal.  I'm teaching Cub Scouts Rangemaster class this Saturday and thought it would be neat to include in my presentation, but it's not like the Rangemasters will be able to show the scouts on the range.
15:01 < aestetix> wait Dolemite are you a troop leader?
15:01 <@Dolemite> Ok, time to head home and get ready to gimp aroung the neighborhood with Mr. 9 to sell more popcorn

15:18 < PigBot> Title: bellows gun at DuckDuckGo (at goo.gl)
15:19 <@oddball> a bellows gun?  hmmm...
15:20 <@oddball> There's a few images that pop up with a google images search.
15:21 <@Evilpig> nto for him.  he's at that gubment facility
15:22 <@oddball> I'd make sure to include the air rifles that Lewis and Clark took with them for hunting/keeping the natives at bay.
15:23 <@oddball> I think the same model was also issued to some military units due to its rate of fire.

21:15 <@RangerZ> god damn apple...
21:16 <@RangerZ> to re-install OSX via the internet (which I gotta admit is a cool feature....) I have to download iTunes and install it on a separate PC
21:16 <@RangerZ> cause I don't have any iCrap
21:16 <@RangerZ> and don't use iTunes
21:17 <@Dagmar> I like how iTunes is an operating system installer now
21:17 <@Dagmar> ...because that makes total sense
21:18 <@RangerZ> I have to agree to ToS
21:18 <@RangerZ> b/c you can't do that outside of iTunes
21:18 <@RangerZ> ....
21:20 <@Dagmar> at least they're not being like MIcrosoft
21:21 <@Dagmar> ...who will just make you buy a whole new copy of Windows, despite the fact that they have argued incessantly that people who make PCs have to pay them money for every desktop they roll out because the users will just _pirate Windows anyway_
21:25 <@RangerZ> stupidest part to me is .... they give you the chance to MAKE an apple ID, but don't give you the choice to 'agree' to the TOS they want....
21:44 < _NSAKEY> RangerZ: Why, it's almost enough to make one want to switch to a free operating system that doesn't place those sorts of silly restrictions on users.
21:49 <@RangerZ> almost
21:49 <@RangerZ> except the -entire- fucking point of this is to learn that fucking OSX
21:49 <@RangerZ> but... anyways

21:49 <@RangerZ> HAHAHA @ GOP are going to lose their biggest talking point
21:50 <@RangerZ> a few congressmen's heads are going to explode of this one
21:50 < _NSAKEY> The Republicans have talking points that don't consist of "The Donald is a big doo-doo head?"
21:51 <@RangerZ> occasionally
21:52 <@RangerZ> when scott walker (thank god no relation) dropped out, he said he was doing it to help the 'conservatives' to consolidate against 'the current leader in the polls' (aka trump) lol
21:52 <@RangerZ> problem with that is.... his last polling numbers were literally 0.0%
21:52 <@RangerZ> below any rounding
21:56 < _NSAKEY> You expect the base Republican voters to actually look that up?
21:56 < _NSAKEY> Sounds like you're giving them too much credit.
22:02 <@RangerZ> nah
22:02 <@RangerZ> just that he had no base of support
