Client: Wait, how'd you fix it?
Me: I just updated the configuration to set the ownership how you wanted it.
Client: Wow.
Me: Config files -- they're the FUTURE!

why does everyone think that anything is magic if involves a computer?

It isn't?

Remember the times when digital typewriters came out? That was fun, every typist was amazed at the ability to use backspace without correction tape :)

I will solder PC boards with a hot plate

TildalWave

@DavidFreitag heh that's a frying pan :)

David Freitag

@TildalWave Yeah but if you check the pictures you will see they use a hot plate ;]

TildalWave

@DavidFreitag I saw ;) just messing with you ... nice blog

David Freitag

@TildalWave Indeed. This one is also very helpful: sparkfun.com/tutorials/58

Man, I'm never going to get to sleep at this rate

5:38 AM

@DavidFreitag Me neither, what did you just do?? You don't send a newly favorited page to a guy with hundreds in his backlog, damn you!

David Freitag

@TildalWave You just woke up!

And i know, my favorites list in chrome is eight million miles long.

TildalWave

and they have an article on CubeSats on the front page too

David Freitag

Yeah the site is all pretty now too. I remember the days when SF had ten employees and the site was much less impressive then ;]

That's about the same time I realized SF is hideously expensive. DigiKey is my best friend now

TildalWave

Pretty cool, I'll certainly dig deeper into it once I get the chance. It's probably one of favs on Robotics and Electrical Engineering

David Freitag

@TildalWave Robotics maybe, but I don't think I've seen a single post even remotely referencing SF on EE.SE

TildalWave

hmmm Robotics isn't doing all that well in their site stats area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/40020/robotics most of them are worse than Space Exploration that's much younger (611 vs 345 days)

looks like they have problems with community building :(

@Caleb long time no see, what brings you here today?

Caleb

@LucasKauffman I'm in here pretty much all the time; the room is in my favorites. You just never see me "drop in" because I usually have at least one browser left open somewhere and don't end up disconnected. Since I don't participate much my name is usually grayed out at the end of the list.

Terry Chia

@LucasKauffman I thought the internet was for cat videos?
