03:00:00 <gee_man> if the movie 'avatar' was about the war in afghanistan, does that make 'avatar 2' about ukraine?
03:12:00 <gee_man> ...or, perhaps a continuation of a new war in afghanistan?
03:24:00 <gee_man> funny thing about me is that i don't learn better with competition unless it's against myself
03:24:00 <gee_man> a lot of people think that competition is healthy
03:24:00 <gee_man> news flash: it's not with me
03:25:00 <gee_man> i learn a lot more efficiently if i can explain what i'm doing to someone else
03:33:00 <gee_man> difficult to do when you don't grasp the concept, but i learn best by teaching

12:12:00 <gee_man> ey
12:57:00 <gee_man> a lot of people have been saying i'm 'dumb'
12:58:00 <gee_man> i'm crazy, not stupid
13:56:00 <gee_man> you see potential?
13:56:00 <gee_man> does that mean you're going to make me do things i don't want to do?
14:20:00 <gee_man> argh. i've gotta find a typo in a 45kb text file
15:06:00 <gee_man> ey ld0g
15:25:00 <grem> huh
15:25:00 <gee_man> just rambling; safe to ignore me
15:33:00 <gee_man> salty
15:36:00 <gee_man> the new windows notepad search and replace needs to be primed before it actually replaces text with what you want
16:59:00 <gee_man> i realise now the windows notepad search and replace priming is a feature, so that you can continue to replace from a previous 'session'
16:59:00 <gee_man> but it doesn't make sense that it still searches for the new text field, and not the old one

19:27:00 <doggyrat> [17:57:30] hello
19:27:00 <gee_man> [17:58:41] ey doggyrat
19:27:00 <gee_man> [17:58:45] did you get it printed yet?
19:27:00 <gee_man> [17:58:52] or have you just been working?
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [17:59:13] hello
19:27:00 <gee_man> [17:59:21] ey Snoopys_Gunship
19:27:00 <gee_man> [17:59:29] seems like whenever someone metions work you pop up
19:27:00 <doggyrat> [17:59:36] hello gee_man no, last try Friday failed and i had no chance to print it again
19:27:00 <doggyrat> [17:59:41] hello Snoopys_Gunship
19:27:00 <gee_man> [17:59:41] mentions*
19:27:00 <doggyrat> [18:00:31] gee_man: that is because his job is not actually real work
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:00:38] lol
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:00:54] being on call is still work
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:01:05] they pay him to be at the ready
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:01:43] hahahaha
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:01:48] shhhh im at work right now
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:01:52] lol
19:27:00 <doggyrat> [18:02:11] if you would ask him to describe what he does " i do sit and wait and drive around " that is what other people do on the weekend and call it fun
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:02:57] instead of waiting for friends to show up, he's gotta wait for loonies to do something crazy
19:27:00 <doggyrat> [18:04:18] my toilets shine bright like diamonds , you need sun glasses
19:27:00 <doggyrat> [18:05:07] even the kid told me that at the first day after i started cleaning , they did wonder what happened to the toilet
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:06:55] well gee_man almost has my job desciption to the tee
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:07:00] BUT its more then that
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:07:14] i used to be really thorough with mopping floors, but someone told me once that i "don't have to be so thorough" so i got lazy, make sure that doesn't happen to you doggyrat, it's might be a shitty job but if you do it well, more opportunities show up in the future (recommendations, etc.)
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:07:18] its looking after a reserve units area PLUS over 50 hecters of land
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:08:17] oh god dont be jealous of my job
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:08:37] its probably one of the best jobs out there BUT there is a tonne of responseablility to it as well
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:09:51] it's a job that can be easily fucked up if you're not paying attention
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:10:08] i almost had a job like that
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:10:34] the job was watching a dashboard of lights, if one lights up, i call a number, the rest of the time i can just watch foxtel
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:10:42] i didn't take it tho, was too unstable
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:11:11] still am unstable
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:13:38] same with a limo driving job - i was to be on call 24x7 with high pay
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:14:05] i really wanted the job but soon ended up in a psych ward
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:14:16] by the time i was out, the job had been taken
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:15:52] was smoking a lot of weed back then
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:19:09] yeah i smoked alot of weed but then wanted to join the army so at the age of 18 i stopped stoned cold and joined 9 years later lol
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:19:41] i'm gettin' too old to join the army, even tho i want to
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:20:22] i crave discipline, but severely lack it, to the point of being insanely efficiently lazy
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:20:39] plus i don't think i should handle a gun
19:27:00 <Bonny> [18:23:21] you wouldn't get accepted to enlist cos of mental illness
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:23:33] what Bonny said
19:27:00 <Bonny> [18:23:44] hey snoops.. :)
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:23:47] and the cut off age for the army is 55 and for speicalist like doctors its 65
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:23:49] hey Bonny :D
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:24:05] nah, i almost joined a few years ago
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:24:21] they said it would be ok, took an aptitude test but didn't take it further
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:24:50] when were you diaonoised with the illness
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:24:57] 18
19:27:00 <*buffextras> [18:25:05] [email protected] set mode: +v LinKd
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:25:11] how old are you now
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:25:12] i declared i had a psychiatric condition in the form
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:25:14] 39
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:25:31] you're still a young pup
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:25:46] i heard 40 was the cut-off age
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:25:51] nope 55
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:26:00] hm..
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:26:07] i got some time then
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:26:58] my type of mental illness would be an advantage in war zones, but i might spook some of the troops
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:27:15] predicting the future, etc.
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:28:05] what sort of role would you look at
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:28:28] dunno, just wanna start out as a private
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:28:56] so something in combat yes
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:29:06] my aptitude test listed several options, i'd probably choose one of them
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:29:20] i don't think combat roles were listed
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:29:33] what roles were listed do you remember
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:29:51] no idea, i got them somewhere but icbf finding it
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:30:34] like something transport or ordance maybe
19:27:00 <doggyrat> [18:30:42] hello Bonny
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:31:03] i dunno, it was several years ago, maybe even a decade
19:27:00 <Bonny> [18:31:12] hey doggyrat how are you?
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:31:31] alright ill go with transport just as a starting point and see the cut off age for it
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:32:20] i had an app installed that was supposed to get me ready, doing exercises etc.
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:32:31] can't even remember what it was called
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:33:15] i'm fat now because of my medication making me hungry and lethargic, i'd have to do so much more exercise to be ready
19:27:00 <doggyrat> [18:33:32] i am good was already outside to the grocer, very early for me . how are you Bonny
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:33:57] Applicants must be at least 17 years of age and able to complete the Initial Minimum Period of Service before reaching Compulsory Retirement Age (60).
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:34:15] ah ok
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:34:30] so they have uped it a bit
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:34:32] lol
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:34:40] for shit and giggles im going to check out MP
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:34:46] lol
19:27:00 <Bonny> [18:34:53] I'm good thanks, doggyrat
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:34:54] i'd be a crazy cop lol
19:27:00 <doggyrat> [18:34:56] Snoopys_Gunship: you just work a little bit longer
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:36:30] wow its the same lol
19:27:00 <doggyrat> [18:36:35] they will bring you to and into your truck and you start driving, the navigation system will prevent that you get lost
19:27:00 <*buffextras> [18:36:38] [email protected] set mode: +v Steve
19:27:00 <doggyrat> [18:37:23] compulsory retirement age here for me would be 67 at the moment may be they are going to rise that again
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:37:47] oh to be in the reserves you can go up to 65 but you will need to get fully assesed past the age of 60
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:37:49] i'd probably end up in the antarctic doing a presence job for 6 months
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:38:26] at least that's what i see in my future at the moment if i join
19:27:00 <gee_man> [18:38:41] probably something to do with china in aussie territory there
19:27:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:39:00] brb
19:27:00 <doggyrat> [18:39:36] Snoopys_Gunship: are you going back to military or are you not going back , did you get a reply

19:31:00 <gee_man> sunday nite..... faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarl
19:31:00 <gee_man> k
19:35:00 <ld0g> i ate pizza
19:35:00 <ld0g> nbow feel like shit
19:36:00 <gee_man> you should see youtube for horror dominos pizza teenage workers doing.. things.. to the pizzas
19:36:00 <gee_man> it's only certain stores with bad management
19:37:00 <gee_man> it's why i get frozen pizza
19:38:00 <gee_man> it's what happens when they pay at or below minimum wage
20:04:00 <gee_man> i went to a snoop dogg concert, and the security detail there must have been protesting or taking orders from someone else in order to cancel the concert
20:05:00 <gee_man> so when we went to go in with our tickets, they said it was cancelled, i said "yeah, right" and then everyone ran in without checking tickets
20:05:00 <gee_man> a lot of people got to see it for free
20:06:00 <gee_man> same person who tried to cancel snoop dogg successfully cancelled dizzee rascal
20:07:00 <gee_man> or was it skepta
20:09:00 <gee_man> ey doggyrat
20:09:00 <doggyrat> hello
20:10:00 <doggyrat> hello gee_man how are you
20:10:00 <gee_man> i'm ok, i figured out why i couldn't find the javascript bug
20:10:00 <gee_man> how're you?
20:10:00 <doggyrat> i have been to the lab yesterday after cleaning the kindergarten to pick up my test print but it failed
20:11:00 <gee_man> something to do with the small edges?
20:12:00 <doggyrat> the filament jammed and only half object was printed
20:12:00 <gee_man> oh ok
20:13:00 <gee_man> i've heard that small edges sometimes don't print properly sometimes
20:14:00 <doggyrat> today our neighbor gave us a a packet from china , it is the prism cube i did expect :)
20:14:00 <gee_man> prism cube?
20:16:00 <Spartanis> i think.. by the time i come back with a cuppa made.. we most certianly wont get his answer :) brb
20:17:00 <gee_man> heh.. the guy knows more than one language, i think that deserves a little more respect
20:18:00 <doggyrat> sorry the splits the vision that was you can see through it and see the same picture from the side 90°
20:19:00 <gee_man> oh that sounds cool
20:19:00 <doggyrat> Spartanis: i know i am a retard ,
20:19:00 <doggyrat> bbs having lunch
20:19:00 <gee_man> ok
20:20:00 <Spartanis> yet he labels himself as retarded.. lol
20:21:00 <gee_man> self deprecative humour is often a defence mechanism
20:21:00 <Spartanis> so.. wouldnt one use a mirror syetm to see things thats perpendicular? ie: around the corner of the wall?
20:21:00 <gee_man> he's having lunch
20:22:00 <Spartanis> i know.. im just asking in general
20:22:00 <Spartanis> "defense mechanism" .. ah.. much like Chandler Bing
20:22:00 <gee_man> or any comedian in history
20:23:00 <gee_man> i've got my co2 levels down from 1000 to 500ppm
20:23:00 <gee_man> nite folks
20:24:00 <gee_man> i noticed i can think a lot more clearly now
20:28:00 <Spartanis> yeah.. and i think i put just enough valium in my hot choc drink to keep me going :)
20:28:00 <Spartanis> might dip in a slice of cheese for extra measure
20:29:00 <gee_man> heheh
20:29:00 <Spartanis> im serious
20:30:00 <gee_man> i know
20:30:00 <Spartanis> ah .. so im right.. thank you..
20:31:00 <gee_man> was just chuckling at the contentedness, not a dig at you
20:31:00 <doggyrat> Spartanis: no doubt the i am a retarded personality , i call myself retarded hobbyist in other channels
20:32:00 <Spartanis> so, in seriousness? or in jest?
20:33:00 <gee_man> neither, just laughing because it made me happy
20:33:00 <doggyrat> this prism cube enables you to see through a telescope and film with a small camera mounted 90° at the side
20:33:00 <gee_man> i'm a bit of an empath
20:33:00 <gee_man> oh right not takling to me
20:33:00 <gee_man> lol
20:34:00 <Spartanis> lawd help me..
20:34:00 <Spartanis> lol
20:34:00 <Spartanis> i'll leave you kids yak to each other.. im gonna go watch the latest ep of Outlander
20:34:00 <gee_man> i think i saw a prism cube on late night informercials for watching tv while lying down
20:35:00 <doggyrat> i have decided to have a website again may be called retarded hobbyist and may be you could help me with some java scripts
20:36:00 <gee_man> i don't think i could help doggyrat
20:36:00 <gee_man> not yet, anyway
20:36:00 <gee_man> maybe in a year's time
20:36:00 <gee_man> after i've done some programming courses
20:37:00 <doggyrat> gee_man: that cube enables to see from two side at the same time right through it and from the side vision reflected to 90°
20:37:00 <gee_man> i figured out recently that i've been writing javascript incorrectly the whole time
20:37:00 <gee_man> apparently document.write() is bad to use
20:37:00 <gee_man> but i've been using it for all my javascript projects
20:38:00 <gee_man> i had heard it was improper to use it, but didn't understand why
20:38:00 <gee_man> now i know it's because the document object model doesn't support it very well
20:38:00 <gee_man> so i have to learn php or asp to do what i want
20:38:00 <doggyrat> or i will use Resool again , but this time not as inverted Lo(o)ser more like Reso(o)lution because i have optical projects
20:39:00 <doggyrat> Spartanis: what did i do to you that you do hate me that much
20:39:00 <gee_man> he's left the building
20:40:00 <doggyrat> elvis has left the building :P
20:41:00 <Spartanis> not completely left the building.. and no.. im just trying to figure you out
20:42:00 <doggyrat> basically i am a loser failing all my life , there is not much to figure out
20:43:00 <Spartanis> keep sayiong that, and you wuill be a loser and failure for the rest of your life. You know there's the power of mental positivity.
20:43:00 <gee_man> being a failure and loser is only ever someone else's opinion
20:43:00 <Spartanis> and there's that
20:44:00 <gee_man> i don't care that the majority of asio thinks i'm a loser
20:45:00 <gee_man> if anything, i prefer it that way
20:52:00 <gee_man> now if you'll excuse me, i'm going to eat some germy pizza
20:53:00 <doggyrat> Spartanis: i am having fun working on my project , that keeps me going and is a reason to learn some new things
20:54:00 <doggyrat> gee_man: a spermy pizza :)
20:55:00 <doggyrat> oh i got that wrong germy pizza are the kind of pizza trying to run away on their own
20:58:00 <gee_man> it's not that kind of pizza doggyrat, i didn't order it from dominos
21:00:00 <gee_man> it is alive in a different way tho
21:00:00 <doggyrat> you did refer to my first remark
21:00:00 <doggyrat> hello Fi
21:00:00 <gee_man> hi fi
21:00:00 <Spartanis> Fo?
21:00:00 <doggyrat> nap time bye
21:01:00 <gee_man> 'sho
21:01:00 <Spartanis> fum
21:01:00 <doggyrat> a woman joins the channel and get all the attention
21:01:00 <Fi> hello boys
21:01:00 <Spartanis> oh Fi's a woman? .
21:02:00 <gee_man> as far as we know
21:02:00 <gee_man> but what do we know
21:02:00 <gee_man> we could all be sentient artificial intelligence from the future entertaining you :p
21:02:00 <doggyrat> in another channel one woman did say that she likes them big
21:03:00 <doggyrat> i replied " you are making all guys mad and me sad "
21:03:00 <gee_man> then you got banne
21:03:00 <gee_man> d
21:03:00 <gee_man> they probably thought you were trolling
21:03:00 <doggyrat> no that was in another channel where i told that story
21:04:00 <gee_man> oh ok
21:04:00 <gee_man> i misunderstood the first time you explained it
21:04:00 <doggyrat> mentioning that someone posted an emoji of a penis after her remark
21:06:00 <doggyrat> i just did check how much a website would cost me including one domain .com
21:07:00 <gee_man> it adds up over time
21:07:00 <gee_man> you might be better off with a wordpess.com free domain
21:10:00 <doggyrat> it is about Aus $ 15 per month including hosting
21:17:00 <gee_man> you don't need a .com domain
21:17:00 <gee_man> just get a wordpress site
21:17:00 <gee_man> doggyrat.wordpress.com is free
21:19:00 <doggyrat> the problem that i do have is that i do have reference e-mail addresses set which do not exist any longer and i can not change any settings in those social platforms
21:20:00 <gee_man> i can't help with that
21:20:00 <doggyrat> by getting that .com domain again and setting up up these e-mail accounts again it would solve that problem too
21:21:00 <gee_man> what if you lose access the same way you lost access to your other email accounts?
21:26:00 <gee_man> what's with the indian government stalking me more than usual
21:27:00 <doggyrat> but i will be able to change the reference e-mail address to a independent address
21:28:00 <gee_man> you can do that with a free wordpress site
21:29:00 <doggyrat> but i need to get a domain too
21:29:00 <gee_man> doggyrat.wordpress.com is your own domain
21:29:00 <gee_man> and it's free
21:30:00 <gee_man> if you really want to get your own .com domain, if you ever miss a payment, everything's gone
21:31:00 <doggyrat> but to change the e-mail addresses i need to have the resool.com domain again , because they will send a verifying mail to the registered mail address before any changes are possible
21:31:00 <electrohead> o/
21:32:00 <gee_man> so you previously had your own domain?
21:39:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> o]\
21:39:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> im so fucking confused
21:40:00 <doggyrat> wb gee_man
21:40:00 <gee_man> ty
21:40:00 <doggyrat> hello Bonny
21:40:00 <gee_man> so, did you previously have your own domain?
21:40:00 <doggyrat> Bonny: how are you
21:40:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> i got a 2 buttons on my steering wheel i would have no idea what the fuck they are lol
21:42:00 <gee_man> i don't think bonny's here, automatic voice is a script upon joining
21:51:00 <electrohead> push them and find out?
21:51:00 <Spartanis> one of them might eject him thru the roof?
21:51:00 <electrohead> sounds fun
21:56:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> lol
21:57:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> all good
21:57:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> i found out what they are
21:57:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> one is cruise control cancel and second one is the limiter cancel button
21:57:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> which means if i set the car to say 60km/h and the limiter is on no matter how much peddle i apply it wont go voer 60
21:58:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> plus i dont have thje car yet to try it out
22:04:00 <gee_man> i live in a carefully constructed world
22:11:00 <doggyrat> i finished the order hope that it is still faster than the trolls :P
22:11:00 <gee_man> hope so
22:11:00 <doggyrat> had some problems with my mobile phone
22:12:00 <gee_man> after you gain access to the emails, i suggest you change them to free email addresses, then set up a free wordpress site, then delete the registration
22:12:00 <doggyrat> for the recent domain i wanted to have a loser or resol domain but all i could get was resool
22:13:00 <gee_man> ok
22:14:00 <doggyrat> i can afford spending AUS $ 16 for the first year and may be even 15 each month later
22:15:00 <gee_man> i think it's still dusty in my room
22:15:00 <gee_man> must be why the co2 levels get so high
22:15:00 <gee_man> even with the windows open
22:36:00 <doggyrat> if you open your window the co2 level will go down try opening a door and a window because co2 is located on the ground being heavier the oxygen
22:39:00 <gee_man> i didn't know that
22:49:00 <doggyrat> i need to take my nap
