DaemonFC"Be a shame if someone turned off your debit card because you didn't place a travel notice."Aug 22 00:27
DaemonFC"If you'll be patient, this shouldn't take more than two or three standard hours. We are very inefficient. Yes. One must keep an eye on us at all times." -Narn customs guard on Babylon 5, to London, quoting him about Narn.Aug 22 00:28

*immibis has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s)Aug 22 00:30
DaemonFCSo she gets toll road fines and trapped in cash lanes trying to fidget around with quarters and debit cards where PNC is trying to protect themselves from a potential $2 chargeback while she is stuck at the gate in the middle of the night.Aug 22 00:30
*immibis has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)Aug 22 00:32
AriadneDaemonFC: yeah PNC sucksAug 22 00:34
DaemonFCShe always says "Oh I'm on the phone with the bank putting a travel notice on my card so they don't shut it off while I'm in Illinois.".Aug 22 00:36
DaemonFCI said, "Oh yeah, all of 100 miles away. Not like anyone ever goes 100 miles.".Aug 22 00:36
DaemonFCI mean, if you live in Indiana and someone tries to charge something in California, that's one thing.Aug 22 00:37
DaemonFCAnd the two are so far away, there's not much chance you'd just make a weekend trip out of it.Aug 22 00:37
DaemonFCAnd you'd think that PNC could update their fraud system so that if you gassed up all the way from your home region and paid tolls going down a turnpike that it wouldn't set off a fraud system.Aug 22 00:38
DaemonFCProbably not fraud.Aug 22 00:38

activelowand the "free software" narrative is highly problematic, and maybe unwillingly RMS perpetuated it.Aug 22 07:54
activelowbtw. both Gates and later Stallman preferred to "spent the rest of the summer writing a text editor in APL"Aug 22 07:56
schestowitz-TRGates did not code muchAug 22 07:57
schestowitz-TRneed source for this claimAug 22 07:57
activelowAPL is only a side note of history, related to BASIC interpreter on CP/M systems which was common at that timeAug 22 08:00
activelow"In the letter, Gates also mentioned the development of the APL programming language for the 8080 and 6800 microprocessors, a programming language in vogue with some other computer scientists in the 1970s. The language, which used a character set based on the Greek alphabet"Aug 22 08:00
activelowbtw. i had not been a programmer either, our lecture was focused on maths, electronics, physicsAug 22 08:08
activelowi could have easily studied for 10years without writing a single line of code, and be recognised the worst programmer of the industry who ever livedAug 22 08:08

activelowit is not like i had to worry having forgotten anything, because i had nothing to loose anyway. couldn't at least afford to rent a flat, in my own homeland, after 1990 expropriation of east-germany.Aug 22 08:18
activelowwhat i could afford was some cheap bicycle, to ride to university early in the morning, inhale toxic fumes in the city, and have a cigarette and coffee for breakfast.Aug 22 08:19
activelowso, the best i could do for revenge was: do nothing.Aug 22 08:21
activelow2004 iirc, some alumni from TU vienna asked if i would study there, during an internship at T-Mobile Austria, no official, but i didn't even bother anymore to answer that.Aug 22 08:25
activelowthe lecture of German Telecom University was clusterf*** and chaos beyond imaginationAug 22 08:26
activelowit wasn't secret either, publicly available for downloadAug 22 08:26
activelowthe books and everything are freely available, some of them rather cheap even, to keep anyone occupied for years to come, essentially "free"Aug 22 08:26

schestowitz-TRsad.Aug 22 22:32
schestowitz-TR"those fuckers who stole the thing.... shiiiiit"Aug 22 22:32
XRevan86schestowitz: Well, not really sad.Aug 22 22:33
schestowitz-TRI was using  a trump lineAug 22 22:35
schestowitz-TR"sad."Aug 22 22:35
XRevan86schestowitz: It's absolutely not surprising that by far the largest channel revolves around the network itself.Aug 22 22:35
schestowitz-TRyes, loyaltyAug 22 22:36
XRevan86or interestAug 22 22:36
schestowitz-TRbut... it's about the network that was crushedAug 22 22:36
schestowitz-TRit's not a joseon channelAug 22 22:36
XRevan86Right, that's a bit odd.Aug 22 22:36
schestowitz-TRbut the thing it's piggybacking to devour, replaceAug 22 22:37
schestowitz-TRwhen it was not yet locked down I used webchatAug 22 22:37
schestowitz-TRI entered it by mistakeAug 22 22:37
schestowitz-TRbecause they misused itAug 22 22:37
XRevan86schestowitz: But they haven't even finished the rename, is this state that it is in now… intentional?Aug 22 22:37
schestowitz-TRto funnel all traffic to their own channelsAug 22 22:37
schestowitz-TRinstead of techrights like it used toAug 22 22:37
XRevan86schestowitz: Nah, it was just the preset.Aug 22 22:38
schestowitz-TRand I saw really mad things popsted there by "root"Aug 22 22:38
schestowitz-TRreally put me offAug 22 22:38
schestowitz-TRI think I saw that when using tuxmachines webchatAug 22 22:38
schestowitz-TRand it went into freenode channel insteadAug 22 22:38
schestowitz-TRand that was when I changed the page etc.Aug 22 22:38
XRevan86I've forgotten the details, but it was just a bug.Aug 22 22:38
schestowitz-TRthis guy is no geniusAug 22 22:39
schestowitz-TRno, they changed somethingAug 22 22:39
schestowitz-TRin the synntaxAug 22 22:39
schestowitz-TRmaybe a new versionAug 22 22:39
XRevan86KiwiIRC did, yes.Aug 22 22:39
schestowitz-TRso freenode was likely a defrauly fallbackAug 22 22:39
XRevan86it's called "nextclient"Aug 22 22:39
schestowitz-TReither way, it definitely worked correctly before thatAug 22 22:40
schestowitz-TRI use nextclient nowAug 22 22:40
XRevan86It auto-redirects outside iframe.Aug 22 22:40
schestowitz-TRit's supporting some things betterAug 22 22:40
schestowitz-TRit also does not hand up on our network after 150 secsAug 22 22:40
schestowitz-TR*hangAug 22 22:40
XRevan86Inside iframe it's supposed to stay put for compatibility, but maybe something went wrong, I don't know.Aug 22 22:40
schestowitz-TRI wish I knew how to futher customise it without self-hostingAug 22 22:41
schestowitz-TR(the webchat thing)Aug 22 22:41
