You know, I think there's a good possibility the new question ban system might already have solved that little aspect of the problem

egads!

Oh no! It knows who I am!

Aiya!

damn, I really hate facebook

@ChrisS I'm usually around for European hours ;)

more so than usual, I do believe.

it's pretty rainy today.

flickering power and all

heheh

@JourneymanGeek Very little badgering would be required; I plan to stand in the next election.

@RyJones ha. this happens to me very rarely.

@RyJones I have no idea where that is.

since if we're going to have retributive justice, at least it should be poetic.

they should go to jail for the aggregate amount of time people must wait for theirs to be replaced.

hmph, apparently someone has skimmed my bank card.

I think, not only rep, but score in the tag is required.

though, I have been getting a crapload of necro-rep (including necro-accepts!) lately for some reason...

it would, of course, require us to actually upvote some answers

@Iain it's not a terrible idea.

:P

what say we let you post more, if they get voted up, and not let you post more if they get voted down, closed, and deleted?

then here's an idea...

we would run out of crosses.

ha

registration with federated auth is certainly easier and faster than 10 minutes of research on your problem.

yes, participation should be so easy you don't even have to put the slightest bit of effort into asking your question at all!

why the hell are we still burdened with it

post as guest is evil for sure.

@MichaelHampton he's done that a few times only as a trap.

@MichaelHampton how about that troll whose name I can't quite recall, who keeps running for moderator everywhere?

I think one of the things we hate more than anyone cares to admit is poor grasp of English ;)

there are a few basic questions we could stand to answer as well - from time to time, even I get stumped by a lack of, say, the magic words required to make ruby realize it has openssl on fedora (hint: not recompiling it)

they do it in wikipedia too.

Assume good faith is not a bad thing at all; it merely means assuming that in posting things here, people are not being intentionally malicious.

ugh, it is really hard to find a USB to mini centronics cable that supports ECP

garbage, to be sure.

@RyJones so he was just crazy then.

@RyJones that is because employees of large companies are crazy

huh.

if you don't mind me asking of course

what is the impetus for your reconsidering the awesomeness of the PNW?

hey, no problem at all

it could definitely be months though

@cole I think the person who makes decisions on these things wouldn't mind talking to you again at some point; I'll let him know.

yeah there is enough work to do around here, shall we say

lol

probably working with @jacob though really we have an open structure in the company and nothing is siloed at all

and my research team needs to be doing research, so we'll be wanting someone to operate our cloud SaaS product
