wow that guy is pissed Benjol

> Infact, apart from a few people here, most of stackoverflow have proved themselves to be compelte imbeciles. I hope that whenever you silly people go for a job that the new employer can see how much of idiots you all are

Lance Roberts

where?

OK, I see.

@Fosco, yep, I had to flag 3 of those comments, pretty bad.

I just hope someone points it out when it reopens so I can vote to close.

Fosco

haha

Hello71

02:29

I would have congratulated him on attempting to ridicule people (poorly) using very poor spelling and capitali(z/s)ation.

but that seemed too rude

Michael Mrozek

02:45

@Hello71 There's little that's too rude when it comes to those people. He's got a solid 10 comments ranting about how people on SO pretend to know things when they don't, which he apparently concluded after watching his question get closed

I don't really know how those things are connected, but as he's been here for about 6 hours I naturally trust his analysis of the site

I hate waking up to a segfaulting Chromium. Had to wipe my profile. Sigh. :/

Marc Gravell

07:33

Probably my fault. It often is ;)

badp

07:53

I'm willing to /blame balpha for this. What with his moes bar language, it must've soaked my profile in alcohol!

Michael Mrozek

08:07

Chromium doesn't segfault on me, but it does like to suddenly max out my CPU. Then it's a race to see if I can kill it before it locks up my computer

@MarcGravell Way to ruin all the fun on that google question :)

badp

@MichaelMrozek Yeah, it didn't like my profile :/

I don't have the CPU problem however.

radp

08:45

sigh, DBus also acts up. Rebooting.

radp

13:19

lol, those who complain about F1 being boring are missing out today.

(people tuning in now, however, will hardly find more exciting stuff like people diving with their cars into others, including teammates.)

radp

14:04

Holy shit, that was some ending.

2 hours later…

BoltClock

15:44

It's been a while since I last got here.

radp

BoltClock

What timezone? If local, that's fine, just 10 hours to go...

radp

Hawaii if needed

BoltClock

I'll be back in 6 hours.

radp

I'll be asleep in 6 hours.

I hope.

<.<

It should be illegal to have IT-related anything begin at 8am

Grace Note

15:50

Why?

radp

too early ._.

Grace Note

But 8 is a lovely time

radp

8am could be, 6am sure isn't

Grace Note

Plus, the earlier the start, the earlier the finish

radp

from Why working at home is both hawesome and horrible

The Unhandled Exception

16:40

@radp That's a great one

Almost as good as his web developer one :-)

Piers Myers

is @radp badp with a new identity?

radp

@PiersMyers 50% more meta, 20% more ninja

Also saves on pixels!

It's win-win-win

Piers Myers

@radp and what's the remaining 30%?

Grace Note

Rad, obviously. 30% more rad

radp

Grace said it's radder, it must be true!

Piers Myers

16:52

so you were 30% bad before then? Better being rad than bad I suppose

radp

No, I just was 50% before. Now, apparently, I've increased by 100%.

I was okay with a 70% improvement but I guess I'll live with it.

1 hour later…

NullUserException

18:01

What's with the downvoting today

Marc Gravell

18:38

Just thinking it'll make transcripts fun, because the names on the left update with time, but @badp doesn't. The implicit/explicit reply will point right of course.

As a side note, the name on explicit replies would update if we ever re-rendered the text... my head!

I accept no blame for missed replies while you change over ;p

1 hour later…

radp

19:50

@MarcGravell I can search the transcripts for that

Popular Demand

20:50

@mmyers Looks nice. Though, nitpick: your website says "Take up the reigns of your country" (emphasis mine); should be reins. I suppose you could actually make a case for "reigns" in this instance, and wasn't going to mention it, but then I watched your YouTube trailer, which does use "reins."

BoltClock

Scratch that, I don't even know what I'm saying.

Popular Demand

@BoltClock I didn't see what you said before you deleted it, but that's a response to something mmyers said to me the other day about a game he created.

Also, ah, hi, how are you today?

BoltClock

Just a little tired I guess. It's 5 in the morning, but I'm staying up for some SO.

Popular Demand

Wow.

Where are you, @BoltClock?

BoltClock

Singapore

(Yes, where the F1 races just took place)

Popular Demand

20:58

Man, I love me some SO. Even though I'm -- for now -- a bikeshedder.

Ah, I know nothing about F1.

BoltClock

Good, because neither do I.

How are you, @PopularDemand?

<in the style of The Room> Oh hi @ChrisF

ChrisF

Evening all - just dropped in, can't stay too long

just trying to find some SO questions to answer - no luck so far

Popular Demand

@BoltClock Good. Football is working out today.

rchern

21:19

@MichaelMrozek, if your [feature-request] ends up [status-denied], you can use StackFlair (:

Michael Mrozek

21:32

@rchern I'll just mention that StackFlair already has that feature and the SO devs will trip over each other to get it implemented immediately :P

BoltClock

I have school later. I should sleep, so catch y'all soon.

radp

@BoltClock You missed out on a nice race :) a few crashes too, including on teammates and crashed vehicles!

Pretty much the only source of entertainment for non motor sports followers (that's 50% of the archive footage we get about NASCAR here)

BoltClock

@radp I did watch it since it was on TV - just not that interested I guess :S

Well then, I'm off.
