49:00 <gee_man> how's your jobhunting going Bonny?
11:00 <gee_man> i ask because it's worth mentioning in your interviews that the business receives a kickback via the des if you land a job
25:00 <ld0g> nite gee_man
28:00 * ^bozojim is now known as ^bozojim1
59:00 <electrohead> wateringhole ZNC server is fully working with SSL (again); had to update a script to talk to letsencrypt and namecheap
48:00 <gee_man> electrohead how much does it cost to use wateringhole
48:00 <gee_man> is it your private server?
49:00 <electrohead> yeah it's a VPS, through vultr
58:00 <gee_man> i've seen vul.tr advertised
58:00 <gee_man> which country is that outfit in?
01:00 <electrohead> many
53:00 <Blockah> gee_man, Inflation might be coming to the western world, but it's been in New Zealand for years now and when the real inflation comes they'll go, oop, nows a good time to rise our already been rised for years prices
53:00 <Blockah> I'd love to bash the heads in on some of these law makers and tax makers
54:00 <gee_man> law makers and tax makers don't control the economy though, citizens do en mass
55:00 <Blockah> Not really, as a. we aren't doing anything about it and b. we don't set the prices lol
56:00 <gee_man> that's what i mean by en mass tho, the crowd sets the prices, not individual people
56:00 <Blockah> Yeah what crowd? Alcohol for example is 3 times the price it should be here on some Vodka's in New Zealand
57:00 <gee_man> one business raises their prices, so does another, repeat for each business
57:00 <gee_man> taxes play a role on things like ciagarettes and alcohol tho
57:00 <Blockah> Like I said 'tax makers' same thing goes with petrol lol
58:00 <Blockah> Skyy vodka is meant to be $20 NZD according to Americas MSRP -- Over here it's $50 NZD lol
58:00 <Blockah> That's nearly 3 times the MSRP lol
59:00 <Blockah> That's just one example
01:00 <Blockah> My mate moved to Australia few weeks back, he loves it
06:00 <Blockah> Said it's way cheaper over there and he gets way more money lol

55:00 <electrohead> [18:04:38] ol
55:00 <electrohead> [18:04:40] lol*
55:00 <electrohead> [18:05:03] somehow I'm still awake
55:00 <gee_man> [18:05:21] what time is it there?
55:00 <mickey> [18:05:41] 6,05
55:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> [18:05:56] holy fuck me dead
55:00 <mickey> [18:06:29] wondered what the......................oh never mind
55:00 <electrohead> [18:08:02] 0407, currently
55:00 <mickey> [18:09:00] 6offers 4 electrohead a 3m12u9g4 2of 4hot 5coffee 0,12"""2] 
55:00 <gee_man> [18:09:17] a couple of nights ago i stayed up studying until 6am
55:00 <gee_man> [18:09:26] must be your turn electrohead
55:00 <electrohead> [18:10:40] lol
55:00 <electrohead> [18:10:42] :p
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:10:45] 11:10AM
55:00 <electrohead> [18:11:32] so in a different channel, on a different server, all I did was say hello to some guy.
55:00 <electrohead> [18:11:52] immediately, he say hi, and asked if I was liberal..
55:00 <electrohead> [18:11:54] heh
55:00 <electrohead> [18:11:58] I ripped into him.
55:00 <mickey> [18:12:07] prolly woke him up
55:00 <electrohead> [18:12:54] last thing I said to dude, after telling him I don't take sides since the military days - "you ever been to a country where your precious rights are restricted?"
55:00 <electrohead> [18:13:02] mother fucker hasn't said a WORD
55:00 <electrohead> [18:13:05] rofl.
55:00 <electrohead> [18:13:11] <3
55:00 <electrohead> [18:13:17] I hate cunts like that.
55:00 <electrohead> [18:13:20] I really do.
55:00 <electrohead> [18:13:32] and yet, "I went overseas for him"
55:00 <electrohead> [18:13:37] pisses me the fuck off.
55:00 <gee_man> [18:13:53] there is a good reason many amateur radio enthusiasts on twitter have a rule to ban anyone mentioning politics
55:00 <electrohead> [18:14:04] that's a good rule.
55:00 <gee_man> [18:14:08] not ban, block
55:00 <electrohead> [18:14:16] most intelligent people just don't want to deal with it
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:14:36] it's hard to not judge at all somebody whom you don't know
55:00 <electrohead> [18:14:48] ^
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:14:52] many people who are under that 50% normal threshold feel like they got it bad
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:14:57] of course there's always WORSE
55:00 <electrohead> [18:15:09] but .. immediately throwing politics in your face? ehh, shit gets old, fast
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:15:20] but for that someone, it was its entire state
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:15:22] of course
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:15:47] unfortunately, they affect me :-(
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:15:54] I don't want to live on this planet anymore...
55:00 <electrohead> [18:15:54] :(
55:00 <electrohead> [18:16:11] BlackBishop: hey, we're in the same boat!
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:16:13] in 2022 we still have wars for whatever reason
55:00 <electrohead> [18:16:18] it's a very large boat, though
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:16:36] too many greedy mofos
55:00 <electrohead> [18:19:06] too many
55:00 <electrohead> [18:19:12] anywho
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:19:40] there was an old comedy group at some point
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:19:44] one of the jokes sounded like this
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:19:52] "- I'm going to barf!"
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:19:56] "- to what?"
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:20:02] "- to barf!"
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:20:07] "-to what?"
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:20:18] "-to go make room for some more bottles"
55:00 <BlackBishop> [18:20:20] :)))
55:00 <Bonny> [18:20:24] lol
55:00 <*buffextras> [18:21:15] [email protected] set mode: +v glezer60
55:00 <gee_man> [18:21:50] ey Bonny
55:00 <Bonny> [18:21:59] hey gee_man
55:00 <gee_man> [18:22:14] did you have your interview yet?
56:00 <Bonny> [18:22:30] that's happening next friday on the phone\
56:00 <gee_man> [18:22:41] ah ok
56:00 <Bonny> [18:22:57] I hope I get it
56:00 <BlackBishop> [18:23:31] if you don't, just let them know you have friends!
56:00 <BlackBishop> [18:23:37] and they have keyboards
56:00 <Bonny> [18:23:42] I have friends in the ircmafia
56:00 <BlackBishop> [18:23:42] and they're not afraid to use them
56:00 <BlackBishop> [18:23:49] YES
56:00 <Bonny> [18:23:54] lol
56:00 <mickey> [18:23:54] and fingers
56:00 <gee_man> [18:23:56] might be worth mentioning that they get a kickback via your des if you land the job
56:00 <Bonny> [18:24:03] des?
56:00 <Bonny> [18:24:12] I found this job online not thru an agency
56:00 <gee_man> [18:24:13] disabiltiy employment service
56:00 <gee_man> [18:24:31] ah ok, probably not eligible then
56:00 <Bonny> [18:24:35] nup
56:00 <gee_man> [18:25:00] and i'm not sure they get the kickback after being employed already, anyway
56:00 <Bonny> [18:25:01] and that kickback is prolly gone as it would have been used by my current employer
56:00 <Bonny> [18:25:07] yeah
56:00 <BlackBishop> [18:25:36] dumb systems are dumb
56:00 <Bonny> [18:25:40] uhuh

56:00 <Bonny> [18:26:10] lol
56:00 <gee_man> [18:27:45] be aware that dodgy des agencies will try to claim that they got you the job
56:00 <Bonny> [18:27:53] I know
56:00 <gee_man> [18:27:54] regardless of it being out of their system
56:00 <gee_man> [18:27:55] they
56:00 <Bonny> [18:28:03] yup
56:00 <gee_man> [18:28:07] they'll backdate it, etc.

06:00 <Snoopys_Gunship> hi JJ
38:00 <gee_man> ey JJ
51:00 <BlackBishop> 🐮
30:00 <BlackBishop> I managed to segfault my weechat :-D
30:00 <gee_man> were you running a bad script or something?
31:00 <BlackBishop> probably
31:00 <BlackBishop> I didn't do it on purpose
32:00 <BlackBishop> but it was probably a script. It crashed when using tab completion
32:00 <BlackBishop> so... 
33:00 <gee_man> hm.. tab completion doesn't exactly sound like something a script intercepts
33:00 <gee_man> i mean it's possible, but seemse unlikely
33:00 <gee_man> haven't you been experiencing crashes repeatedly recently?
33:00 <gee_man> could it be a hardware issue?
38:00 <BlackBishop> nope
38:00 <BlackBishop> ecc is all ok
38:00 <BlackBishop> disk reports no smart errors
38:00 <BlackBishop> I'm sure it's a script :)
39:00 <gee_man> fair enough
