@qasdfdsaq This is the sort of attitude I hate with sysadmins. Please be nice.

@DragonLord: I hate the attitude of users, I guess the feeling is mutual

So I'm currently on hold with Comcast. Which is always fun, you know. But this time there's a twist: the first person I talked to accidentally forwarded me to their internal helpdesk. So I'm sure they won't be able to fix my problem, but I'm really curious what their poor L1 helpdesk tech says when I turn out not to be a Comcast employee.
 
@nhinkle We sit near the HR and recruiting teams, and occasionally you'll hear one of the managers take a call from an external customer. They're always quite confused.
 
@nhinkle "Goodbye, thank you for calling. Your employement is important to us." ? :)

I ended up hanging up... it was taking way too long. I guess long hold times really are a deeply held corporate value there!
 
8:47 PM
Most of comcast's support is outsourced to other call center's that arent comcast that provide the same support services.
Wouldnt be surprised.
 
@nhinkle Please hold why I come up with a witty comment.

It's slow. Very slow :V
that means increasing and decreasing volume by 5% (which is bound to a key) is also slow
which means that my ears are deafened when I forget to account for the delay :(
Any clue about what could be causing this? :S
 
10:08 PM
nope :(
what does uptime usage show?
is the machine perhaps swapping??
atop is a great tool

Q: Test the new mobile chat!

balphaRemember 2010, when smartphones looked like this?             Back then, we created a mobile version of chat, so that people could use the bare minimum of features on those and similar phones. Well waddayaknow, suddenly it's 2016, smartphones for some reason now look like this:             –...

Q: Chat notification is repeated for every edit, drives me bonkers

SQBThe chat notification, especially the *BONK*, is repeated when a message is edited. Repeatedly. This can get really annoying. I propose the BONK is only repeated after the editing time limit. That way, even if multiple edits are made, only a single *BONK* will be emitted.

 
11:46 PM
ahh, the bonk
 
Which drives you bonkers.
 
yup
Asked if that could be changed once. ;p
 
11:59 PM
Somebody suggested using <blink> instead :/
