@FEichinger wearing a suit?? What are you doing, interviewing for a job at Burger King?

FEichinger

19:18

@AviD ಠ_ಠ

Just trying to look reasonably decent when there's church officials and whatnot around us ...

AviD

ah.

@FEichinger do you work at a church?

FEichinger

Kinda sorta. Tomorrow is Corpus Christi, for which we do video streaming of the Munich event.

AviD

what is this "Munich event"?

sounds like something Doctor Who would say with fear.

FEichinger

The Corpus Christi celebrations in Munich.

AviD

something to do with the world cup?

@FEichinger ah, of course it is.

FEichinger

19:25

Anyway, we have cameras on various towers around the city centre, with radio comms between them.

All that needs maintenance.

David Freitag

@FEichinger Yeah I bet those cameras chatter away all day too

FEichinger

Which means we frequently climb 300 steps on average in each tower, all the way to the top.

David Freitag

L2Drone, man.

FEichinger

Now church towers don't have pretty staircases, but wooden constructions that are bound to fall apart.

Free-floating ladders and fancy stuff like that.

Basically, my legs hurt and my brain is a bit overworked.

AviD

@FEichinger I feel like there is a TWSS in there, but I'm going to let this one slide.

FEichinger

19:38

@AviD SHUTUPI'MTIRED.

David Freitag

@FEichinger I bet your knees are just killing you.

FEichinger

ಠ_ಠ

Simon

bonjour, i am jacques from france

AviD

I really feel like kicking @Simon. Does anybody here object to me kicking @Simon?

Simon

The swag yolo lord does #swagyololord

FEichinger

19:49

@AviD No.

AviD

no? nobody at all?

FEichinger

I only object to you asking if anyone objects.

Gilles

@AviD are you talking in the chatroom, or in real life?

AviD

@FEichinger well, originally I meant physically, in the nuts. but then he went and yolod all over the place...

@Gilles does it really matter?

Simon

It seems that every time you kick me, the room gets farther down the list, it might be a sign.

Gilles

19:51

@AviD one makes you a violent thug unfit for living. The other one makes you a bully who can be allowed to live as long as he doesn't interact with other people

David Freitag

@Simon You got kicked?

AviD

@Gilles which is which?

Simon

@DavidFreitag TWICE.

Gilles

Why do you keep bullying Simon?

AviD

wanna go for 3....?

David Freitag

19:52

@Simon Did you deserve it?

Simon

Interesting timing.

AviD

@Gilles wait, do I?

Simon

@DavidFreitag Probably.

David Freitag

So I was just recently tasked with making an excel form to replace a paper form that we use, and i realized I have pretty much no idea how to use excel. Except as a spreadsheet.

Scott Pack

@DavidFreitag Talk to @Iszi. He's all hot for VLOOKUP.

David Freitag

19:59

@ScottPack It doesn't even need to be that complex.

AviD

@DavidFreitag conditional formatting is where its at.

Rоry McCune

back in the day I used to work at an accountancy co. and they used Lotus 1-2-3/Excel for EVERYTHING, including writing letters

Simon

I wasn't even born back in the day you used to work at an accountancy.

David Freitag

@AviD :[

Rоry McCune

@Simon 95, yeah prob. not

Simon

20:02

@RоryMcCune Yeah, 7 years too early.

David Freitag

@RоryMcCune Heh, I was 3 then.

Rоry McCune

nice thanks I feel old now :)

David Freitag

You must embrace your inner Rory.

AviD

25 mins ago, by David Freitag

@FEichinger I bet your knees are just killing you.

Rоry McCune

@DavidFreitag ah but I'm but the padwan to @RoryAlsop 's palpatine in the age stakes :)

@AviD actually just mowed the lawn, so that's not too far off. Never thought I'd see a day where self-propelled mowers and mulch plugs seemed like awesome inventions!

Rory Alsop

20:36

@RоryMcCune yoouuuu ranggggg?

Lucas Kauffman

@RoryAlsop TRIIIIING TRIIIIIING TRIIIIIING

Rory Alsop

@LucasKauffman how phones should sound :-)

David Freitag

FYI Embedded systems is rebooting

For anyone who missed the first commit window.

Lucas Kauffman

@RoryAlsop I really wonder if children will still understand in 10 years that a phone goes TRIIING and why we say it has that sound

Rory Alsop

@LucasKauffman I ensure that all my phones have a wav of that sound, just to help them understand :-)

(plus, I know when my phone rings - in amongst all that bleep tweet nonsense)

Lucas Kauffman

21:04

This guy seriously how dangerous his advice is:

-1

A: How can I convince my customers not to send Credit Card data over email?

There are 2 issues here. The first one is that you are willing to take responsibility for what a not so bright customer does. The other one is well that some customers are not bright. Let me tell you how I would handle it. When you first get the email address from the customer you send them a...

Lucas Kauffman

21:18

*doesn't know

Gilles

@LucasKauffman uh? his advice is essentially the same as yours — refuse all CC numbers by email

1 hour later…

tylerl

22:40

@Gilles @Lucas also says that you immediately destroy the email, which is good token gesture, but if you actually could destroy an email then this wouldn't be as big a deal.

Stiil, it's good to make the effort. It shows you tried.
