@Sterno Not yet. Have you?

Ellesedil

Anyone use Slacker Radio? It's looking like I'm missing some favorited songs from the My Music section.

I'm having some difficulties in figuring out of this is typical or not.

Sterno

@Wipqozn No. I haven't played since Friday. I've only just finished the Golem City mission

Tim Stone

Slackers

MadMAxJr

Golem City was lacking in Clay golems.

Just flesh and iron golems.

Tim Stone

@Sterno Did you find the Golden Penguin when snooping about?

MadMAxJr

8:25 PM

It's rather majestic.

Tim Stone

Indeed

Sterno

@TimStone Nope

Tim Stone

I found it but only now figured out why it's there. |:

Wipqozn

@TimStone Nor I

@TimStone Why is it there?

Is it because of your mom?

Tim Stone

Yes

But there's an easter egg-ish achievement if you do something with it

badp

8:29 PM

spotted today at work, the moral equivalent of

MyThing = OneClass
if condition:
  MyThing = OtherClass
elif condition_2:
  MyThing = SomeOtherClass

class Terrible(MyThing):
  #...

MadMAxJr

One Class, Two Class, Red Class, Blue Class.

badp

except of course it was in Perl

so it was more like class Terrible(OneClass if condition else (OtherClass if condition_2 else SomeOtherClass)):

KutuluMike

@badp thank god you can't even do that kinda crap in C#

fredley

@badp uwot

KutuluMike

I shudder what my junior devs would come up with

badp

8:37 PM

@fredley yes

fredley

@badp pls

badp

@fredley yes

like

fredley

This is not how you orient objects

Ronan

Run-time inheritance is possible in Python too.

badp

the list of parents is actually controlled by a global called @ISA

so you can change the parent class(es) of your instance (class? module?) at run time

@Ronan hence why I spared you of the Perl syntax for today

Yuuki

8:39 PM

... Question: if my resume doesn't appropriately show my skills and you found me through my resume on Monster, how do you know that my skills are better than my resume shows?

badp

@Yuuki sheer desperation

Tim Stone

Is it the NSA?

Yuuki

I dunno, but some recruiter wants to me to add stuff to my resume to appeal to one of their clients. Which I guess it's possible that my resume doesn't demonstrate my skills enough.

MadMAxJr

@Yuuki Hello am resume bot. DO YOU JOB? WE JOB. JOB DETAIL: - DETAIL.

YOU WORK SOON YES?

djsmiley2k

@Yuuki I've done this before

but only when I have the skills they want me to expand on

i.e. somewhere that doesn't care about my windows knowledge, but wants me to expand on shell scripting in linux.

Yuuki

8:42 PM

@djsmiley2k Yeah, I'm hoping they're suggesting that I expand on things that I actually do know rather than telling me to add stuff that I don't.

Tim Stone

@Yuuki Ahhhh, recruiters

Yuuki

If the latter, definitely dropping this recruiter straight into the ignore bin.

djsmiley2k

if they tell you to add stuff you don't know, seriously concider if you want to approach somewhere looking for that person.

Good

I guess it could be possible that somewhere thinks they need someone that knows X,Y and Z but infact they only need X.....

Yuuki

I'd rather not show up to an interview claiming to know something I don't. Even if it gets me a job where I don't actually do the thing.

djsmiley2k

yeah

MadMAxJr

8:44 PM

"How much Java is needed for this job?" "Well according to your resume, you wrote the 1.5 standard..."

djsmiley2k

:D

Then again I've had the opposite as well

Recuriter tells me to expand on something, employer doesn't care about it at all.

MadMAxJr

I had to write up a resume once where they said, "They don't want to see jobs, they just want to know projects and what the work involved was."

djsmiley2k

The reason i was told to change mine was because it appeared I only wanted service desk roles - I didn't realise I DID only want those roles haha

Wipqozn

@TimStone @Sterno My cat just decided to play Deus Ex by jumping up on the mouse and choosing an option for me in this persuade dialogue

MadMAxJr

Also never answer, "So why are you interested in this job?" with "My lawyer is still determining if I have a case against my former employer."

just let me log in for the seventh time in the same 20 minutes to their web portal

"ERROR ERROR MONEY COMES FROM ITALIAN CREDIT CARD DOES NOT COMPUTE DOES NOT COMPUTE"

so I can try one last thing

arda

@badp why do you still use an italian bank? It seems to be causing too much problems for you.

badp

I can try to add funds to my account

@arda it matters not to reasonable businesses like Steam or Amazon

reasonable businesses that allow me to give them my money

arda

9:09 PM

But it causes billing questions on some reasonable sites such as Playstation Now

badp

and try to get out of the way as much as possible

@arda well then playstation now is not reasonable.

my money is money.

money is money.

arda

well it also costs 20usd

badp

country matters not.

if you're going to geofence, you are not going to get my money.

is it my loss? it's not my loss. I have suvived for 27 years without your service.

murgatroid99

I'm pretty sure that getting money to cross national borders isn't actually that simple

badp

Paypal is an option. Paypal figured it out.

but Sony isn't interested.

MadMAxJr

9:11 PM

Please insert baguette.

murgatroid99

@badp "Didn't completely solve the problem" isn't the same as "isn't interested"

badp

there is a limit on the amount of hoops I'm going to jump through, and paying a monthly extra with my dutch bank so I can have a bunch of digits that I can put it into a website so I can start a trial of a thing I am not completely sold about is beyond this limit.

if you want to be a bigger jumper than me, by all means, jump

this has literally never been a problem in 16 months of being in the Netherlands.

murgatroid99

I'm not saying you should continue to try to use this site. I don't care. But you've been ranting for ten minutes about how Sony is such a terrible company because they have some issues with international transactions

Ellesedil

Or just a terrible online market place.

Tim Stone

More that they didn't apparently test the PayPal integration, it seems

badp

9:14 PM

I wasn't aware that there was a time limit.

Tim Stone

Or consider the payment workflow

badp

that said

Tim Stone

Having to click cancel to get to the PayPal option seems a bit asinine

badp

Google is another company who goes pants-on-head stupid about accepting money in a country while being in a second country

so what do I know?

I had to have my Nexus 6P shipped to my parents' in order to buy it for myself in the Netherlands

Frank

Ultima 1 is extremely unforgiving.

badp

9:16 PM

so I will retract the literally never -- it has come up one other time

I didn't rant as much because I already had a relationship with Google I guess, but you know, I did not APPRECIATE it either

so uh the sooner you figure this extremely basic shit out the better kthxbai

MadMAxJr

Seems like businesses based out of the US seem to forget there are currencies other than USD.

badp

(also the Nexus 6P was a physical good, this Sony thing isn't a physical good)

Ellesedil

Sony is based in Japan.

badp

you know what's going to happen

PS Now will be opened to Italy

MadMAxJr

Clearly they want us to all get Sony$Bux

badp

9:19 PM

and I will sign up with the Italian PSN

and I will start the trial

MadMAxJr

And then Playstation Network goes offline for a few months due to a new hacking attempt.

badp

and then it will tell me I can't because my ping is too high

because it will be forcing me to connect to Milan or Rome or what have you from Amsterdam

because of course it fucking will

I'm sure there are other things in play here, like international monetary transaction regulations. And I bet that when you have systems that let you store money, like the PlayStation Store wallet, international money laundering laws also come into play.

it's not a problem with Steam.

Steam has a wallet and I can load it up with money from my very very dirty Italian bank account.

badp

welp I guess that is why Steam is getting my business and Sony is not getting my business.

if anything they're going "a lot of expense" to make sure they can geolock you out of your money and services

MadMAxJr

I'm surprised Steam doesn't have a payment processor that accepts buttons, small bits of string, and pocket lint for cash value.

Cause they take almost everything else.
