[08:18] <neph> hm
[08:18] <thean> im not sure how that works
[08:18] <thean> extra time kicks in at some point
[08:18] <thean> near the end of the game
[08:18] <thean> like 15 secs a move
[08:18] <bolle_> some sites add some seconds per move
[08:20] <thean> im playing a match right now
[08:20] <thean> I always play people rated higher than me
[08:20] <thean> thats part of my problem
[08:20] <thean> heh
[08:20] <thean> I think I've got this match
[08:20] <thean> thats the other half of my problem
[08:20] <thean> I think I have a match and stop thinking
[08:21] <bolle_> "you have" means you think you're winning?
[08:21] <thean> yes
[08:21] <thean> beginning of the match
[08:21] <bolle_> rush towrds end, when in favor
[08:21] <thean> I totally own the center of the board
[08:21] <bolle_> trade everything
[08:21] <bolle_> make it to end-play
[08:21] <bolle_> tne a small advantage will be big
[08:22] <thean> ty yoda
[08:22] <thean> haha
[08:22] <thean> =D
[08:23] <thean> I read some tutorial by some 12 year old chess wizz
[08:23] <thean> he breaks the game into three components
[08:23] <thean> beginning, middle, end game
[08:23] <thean> I'm focusing ont he beginning right now, and have been getting results
[08:25] <thean> just sacrificed a knight, to open the game up. the fucker is 100% defence.
[08:40] <khaki> anyone ever had a pool table refelted?
[08:43] <neph> yea
[08:43] <khaki> they do any glueing?
[08:43] <neph> yeah...
[08:43] <khaki> my pops is having his table redone
[08:43] <khaki> they were doing the rails yesterday and doing the main portion today
[08:43] <neph> they glue it to the slab
[08:44] <khaki> well i was reading some people do and lots of people dont
[08:44] <neph> my buddy and i did his ourselves
[09:01] <thean> It's official, A+ on my macro midterm.
[09:01] <thean> \o/
[09:01] <thean> <- geek.
[09:06] <thean> 91.1%
[09:06] <thean> lost 4 marks on careless mistakes.
[09:20] <bolle_> thean, i have quite a high rating :)
[09:21] <bolle_> if you focus on the beginning part, then thats ok, but you need to know what
[09:21] <bolle_> ofcourse rating is relative..
[09:21] <scrim> wait until 1/2 way into the match and smash your opponent with the board
[09:21] <scrim> victory!
[09:23] <bolle_> neph: glue on a pooltable??
[09:25] <bolle_> they take off the side curves, then place the sheet on it, then pull the she
[09:25] <bolle_> sorry for the terms, im not native english..
[09:26] <bolle_> italian accent: I want two sheet on the bed, and a fork on the table
[09:27] <scrim> i want two piece, i want two piece on the table
[09:36] <thean> I want a whip and lots of lube, some chains, and a stun gun on my bed
[09:36] <thean> who wants to cum play?
[09:37] <thean> my rating is now 1103
[09:42] <Mr_Hjinx> hey, anyone feeling confident on wsus wo ad ?
[09:42] <thean> absolutely
[09:42] <scrim> yeah, don't do it, next question.
[09:43] <Mr_Hjinx> okey, obviously got a clue :) its just the client that is without ad. is i
[09:44] <scrim> if they have a big enough shop to need wsus, they need AD, if not, turning on
[09:45] <thean> dont listen to scrim, he is trying to fuck with you
[09:45] <thean> he is friends of that communist linux tarvaldis
[09:45] <Mr_Hjinx> well, i see your point scrim, but is it possible?
[09:47] <scrim> is what possible? turning on automatic updates?
[09:47] <scrim> yes
[09:47] <scrim> installed an AD controller?
[09:47] <scrim> yes
[09:47] <thean> DONT DOOOOO IT
[09:47] <Mr_Hjinx> no, making a non ad client connect to the wsus
[09:47] <Mr_Hjinx> hehe
[09:47] <scrim> i don't think so, and again, he doesn't need it
[09:47] <scrim> go ahead, keep asking :)
[09:48] <scrim> as a consultant, it's not just your job to say yes to everything the customer
[09:48] <scrim> they can and will (frequently) ask for boneheaded things
[09:48] <scrim> it's your job to steer them to the right solution
[09:48] <Mr_Hjinx> i know, but i'm the bonehead here..
[09:48] <Mr_Hjinx> just wanting to know if its possible
[09:48] <scrim> well then, you won't have to argue with anyone
[09:48] <scrim> makes things easier
[09:49] <Mr_Hjinx> and the case is my laptop, wich i dont want to joint to ad..
[09:49] <thean> you smoke joints?
[09:49] <scrim> wtf is wrong with auto updates?
[09:49] <scrim> no, strictly bowls for me
[09:50] <thean> scrim is hostile
[09:50] <Mr_Hjinx> i can see that
[10:07] <sicka> whos upgrading to vista here
[10:08] <scrim> no one
[10:08] <Mr_Hjinx> maybe
[10:08] <Mr_Hjinx> month or three after the releasedate
[10:08] <Mr_Hjinx> when 'the hole' has been patched
[10:09] <sicka> whynot
[10:09] <sicka> lol
[10:12] <scrim> why would i want an OS with lots of annoying DRM who's primary benefit is a s
[10:21] <ECT88> hi i setup my yahoo mail to my 2k7 outlook last night
[10:21] <ECT88> and it removed all my webmail messages
[10:21] <ECT88> how do i revert that?
[10:21] <scrim> don't use outlook?

[12:06] <eterna1> the bots aren't responding to my chat requests. motherfuck.
[12:16] * sicka is now known as SiCKa
[14:13] <kreep> how do i get word help to auto-tile by default? (So I don't have to click au
[14:21] <thean> wtf do you need to use help so often?>
[14:22] <kreep> long story
[14:22] <thean> well then so is the answer.
[14:22] <kreep> i want training machines set up that way
[14:22] <thean> that is, the answer to your question.
[14:22] <thean> why?
[14:23] <kreep> so help comes up for trainees in tiled mode and they can follow it withou swi
[14:23] <thean> why?
[14:23] <kreep> currently it pops up... the trainees click on the help and read it, then clic
[14:23] <kreep> and they can';t figure out where it went
[14:24] <blk> maybe you should train people to use Linux + OpenOffice instead.
[14:24] <kreep> that would be nice, but not very lucrative.
[14:24] <blk> of course it would be.. you'd save $$$ on all those useless licence for shit so
[14:25] <blk> and train people to use proper applications
[14:25] <kreep> yeah, but the 3 clients we get a year woudln't pay the bills, even without so
[14:25] <kreep> i love oo and linux
[14:25] <kreep> but the real world still uses office
[14:25] <blk> uhm
[14:25] <blk> OpenOffice is established
[14:26] <blk> linux is established
[14:26] <blk> what planet are you living on?
[14:26] <blk> and openoffice is practically the same thing
[14:27] <blk> if people do not have the common sense to know how to work it, they should be t
[14:27] <blk> as they aren't intellectually inclined enough to serve such a purpose
[14:27] <kreep> im looking for usage stats.. everyone i've dealt with still uses office
[14:28] <thean> dont deal with them then
[14:28] <blk> please refer to my previous comments
[14:29] <thean> dont mind blk, he works for linux.
[14:29] <blk> in repect to what you are saying i can summarize what i mean in this analogy...
[14:29] <blk> you are training people to change the tires on a car, but you only want them to
[14:30] <blk> if they are that daft, then no corporate office wants them anyways
[14:30] <blk> therefore, you are wasting you time.
[14:30] <thean> and ours!
[14:30] <thean> and we are very busy people, working on very important stuffz
[14:30] <kreep> yeah, but if 90% of coprorations drive that particular type of car, then we a
[14:31] <kreep> its supply and demand... we train what people ask for
[14:31] <kreep> there has been no demand for OO training
[14:31] <thean> nonono
[14:31] <kreep> im sure its superior software
[14:31] <thean> you need to take some macroeconomics
[14:31] <thean> its not about supply and demand
[14:31] <thean> its all about aggregate expenditures and the consumption function.
[14:31] <blk> if you are training people that are technically inclined enough to learn OpenOf
[14:32] <thean> if you factor out autonomous spending.
[14:32] <kreep> yes, but most people aren't that technically inclined.. most people aren't ge
[14:32] <kreep> does oo support vba macros?
[14:32] <thean> did you just call blk a geek?
[14:33] <blk> and OpenOffice isn't superior, per se, it's just free, and openly developed
[14:33] <thean> blk, he called you a geek
[14:33] <blk> which is a way to save $$$
[14:33] <blk> lol
[14:33] <kreep> yeah. but no support, and the headaches of switching users make it a difficu
[14:34] <thean> difficult for morans
[14:34] <kreep> lol are you offended by that blk? im a geek if it makes you feel any better.
[14:34] <blk> so in other words, you are insulting anyone you are refering to as wanting to b
[14:34] <blk> those people may as well learn how to operate a spatula
[14:34] <kreep> no, here's an analogy for you
[14:34] <kreep> are you an auto mechanic?
[14:34] <thean> IM A MONKEY!
[14:34] <blk> they'll probably end up getting paid the same
[14:35] <kreep> when you get a new car, do you want to be told how to rebuild the engine, or
[14:35] <blk> 'but no support'
[14:35] <thean> MONKEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[14:35] <kreep> people simply don't need to be techinically proffeicent for a lot of jobs
[14:35] <blk> what do you mean? there's forums all over the interweb
[14:35] <kreep> that's not official support
[14:36] <blk> uhm, people need to be technically proficient PERIOD
[14:36] <blk> in EVERYTHING they do
[14:36] <blk> otherwise they're probably doing something they SHOULDN'T be doing in the first
[14:36] <blk> so stop trying to train them to :)
[14:37] <blk> go run a circus or something.
[14:37] <kreep> technically profficent with computers then... how many sales/marketing guys,
[14:37] <kreep> i might make more money that way
[14:37] <kreep> and my clients would probably be abou as intelligent
[14:37] <blk> who the fuck in using Office to write c/c++?
[14:37] <kreep> no one
[14:37] <kreep> i hope
[14:37] <blk> then you are totally off topic
[14:38] <blk> you're trying the old Dick Cheney Switch-a-roo
[14:38] <kreep> no, you were saying everyone needs to be technically profficent. i was pointi
[14:38] * Deluzion_ is now known as Deluzion
[14:38] <blk> computers are the only thing in the world that uses 'technology'
[14:38] <kreep> you know what i meant that. technically profficient with computers
[14:38] <kreep> *though
[14:38] <blk> remember, no many people know how to set the time on their VCRs
[14:39] <blk> no=not
[14:39] <blk> but they ought to know
[14:39] <kreep> which is sad.. but thats exactly my point. technology is big and scary to mo
[14:40] <kreep> just like i have no idea what goes on in my car.. i know to push certain peda
[14:40] <blk> and if you are training people to be able to do something.. you ought to be tea
[14:40] <kreep> the comapnies don't want to pay for the amount of time it would take ot train
[14:40] <kreep> they want monkeys, we give them monkeys
[14:41] <blk> so what you're saying it.. it would take someone much longer than 5 hours of cl
[14:42] <kreep> well... who needs to go to training for a word processor anyway? I don' teac
[14:43] <iLLMaTiK> DCC SEND AI_DONT_NO_WATS_REAL_ANYMORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[14:45] <kreep> im looking at the lesson outline for word level 1.. it looks liek they teach
[14:48] <kreep> any thoughts on my original q blk? Or does the whole principal of training p
[14:49] <blk> i think your original question has become a moot point by now. :)
[14:50] <kreep> heh :)

[15:09] <blk> the only software you'll ever own on Earth is the software you write yourself
[15:10] <blk> otherwise you are licenced to use software that SOMEONE ELSE OWNS.
[15:10] <Hahano> yeah, thean!
[15:10] <blk> ie. MS products that our corporation own

[16:13] <blk> lol
[16:13] <blk> what's even more inane than that is that there can only be _7 wonders_
[16:13] <blk> like there aren't hundreds more worthy of note
[16:14] <blk> the CN Tower is a wonder.. it's still the tallest free-standing structure in th
[16:15] <blk> so is the Aswan Dam in egypt that destroyed about 50 other wonders before it
[16:16] <blk> archaeologists are still finding wonders too
[16:16] <blk> like that ancient christian church recently found in israel
[16:22] <thean> yes
[16:22] <thean> but the cn tower is not a mystery
[16:22] <thean> the pyramids still are

[19:45] <flyback> you idiots are really blowing it
