09:18:16 <Ampera> That's not game breaking, maybe a bit strange, but user accounts can't normally make new user accounts, and most UIDs are below (2^32)/2
09:18:36 <Ampera> Whatever genius decided to store UIDs in a /signed/ variable should be flogged, however.
09:18:44 <Ampera> That's just begging for someone to come over and piss on them
09:18:50 <damian> haha
09:21:35 <DHess_US> Release the nasel demonds!
09:22:36 <DHess_US> That's what I get for eating dinner and typing at the same time.
09:23:08 <Ampera> I'm eating cheap aldi spanish ham straight out of the package
09:23:19 <Ampera> fuck am I sophisticated
09:23:45 <DHess_US> You have to eat the ham you have and not the ham you want.
09:24:26 <Ampera> Is that like the saying, you have to have sex with who you can get, not who you want?
09:29:23 <damian> lol
09:30:10 <damian> we had our work christmas party last night, and this morning breakfast provided. i just munched down on some cheese and bacon sliders, banana bread, and pumpkin quiche
09:30:11 <damian> nom nom
09:30:42 <Ampera> You had me at bacon sliders, lost me at banana bread, and really confused me at pumpkin quiche
09:31:48 <damian> i know, it's been a real journey
09:32:05 <damian> banana bread was really good, i don't usually like it.. but it was very dense and flavoursome
10:37:15 <IoTPanic> That sounds real good
10:41:30 <T3sl4> Ampera: i don't want to see /your/ kinks!
10:41:50 * Ampera kinks T3sl4's hose

10:57:24 <T3sl4> hows it going
10:57:55 <steve30> ok
10:58:38 <steve30> I just had some leftovers from sunday dinner :)
10:58:47 <T3sl4> mmm, food
11:04:02 <steve30> coffee time now I think
11:39:03 <IoTPanic> Its always coffee time
11:39:11 <IoTPanic> I forgot to put the steak in the slow cooker :(
11:39:15 <IoTPanic> I ordered pizza
11:40:08 <IoTPanic> And I forgot to merinate the other steak, if I had remembered this morning

13:16:35 <coppice> What's that nice related warning Dumbledore gives in one of the Harry Potter movies?
13:54:11 <IoTPanic> "Finally, I must tell you that this year, the third-floor corridor on the right-hand side is out of bounds to everyone who does not wish to die a very painful death."
13:56:20 <IoTPanic> Is that the one?
15:12:27 <damian> (DHess_US) lol. "Danger - Do Not Touch - Not only will this kill you, it will hurt the whole time you are dying.
15:12:35 <damian> that sounds like a hitchhikers guide quote right there
15:13:28 <Ampera> I get to copy around 600GB of files off a hard drive, reformat it, and then copy it all back 120 miles away using SSH

16:11:59 <steve30> Funny how channels with loads of people in them have long quiet periods

19:36:28 <Ampera> hi Halcyon
19:36:29 <Ampera> how do
19:37:47 <Ampera> man I love SSH
19:37:51 <Ampera> it's so damn useful.
19:41:05 <Ampera> Just using SSH, I copied the entire contents of a partition over, reformatted it, restored it, and can reconfigure my SFTP shares 120 miles away on a tabet.

21:58:13 <coppice> Ampera: 3km may not seem like much, but run 3km a day and in just a week every annoying person around you will be 21km away.
