[Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:03:11] happy achtung, grossman! [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:03:40] whoa, yeah! the birthday happy! [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:03:53] anilm, nevermind. seem to have fixed it. [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:04:13] anilm, by which I mean, wp was making requests for some random files which I could not find mention of in the source code anywhere. [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:04:18] anilm, then it stopped. [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:04:28] anilm, googling reveals that this has happened to others too. [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:04:45] I'm half-inclined to blame firefox., [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:04:50] novalis_dt: hmm insteresting ... i have never seen that myself [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:05:38] fuck. just realized that I forgot to check in a file from home. [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:06:29] * novalis_dt wonders if he can connect to his home box ... [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:07:14] nope.

Er, cake! [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:39:38] achtung! ice-cream cake that will melt if we don't eat it ASAP, so don't expect it to be here long! [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:40:39] * RaFromBRC notes that the gratuitous use of achtung has been steadily increasing [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:42:10] RaFromBRC: this is #topp, as rpenate pointed out to me a few weeks ago there's not a whole lot more time-critical than lunch and cake that ever happens in this channel [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:42:57] ejucovy: then we may need another channel... i have to be in this channel b/c this is where important sysadmin information is disseminated [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:45:33] * rpenate questions whether adding *more* channels is the appropriate solution here [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:46:30] perhaps there could be a different buzz word than achtung for food-related issues. [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:46:47] that's fine... folks in the office can add a different word to their watchlist [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:47:06] all i know is that it's use is growing, it's definitely disruptive to me [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:48:00] adding another keyword is also problematic in that the people who need it (the people on the second floor) are predominantly non-power users of IRC [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:48:19] my personal solution has been the "glance-and-ignore" strategy [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:48:35] especially when colloquy has a little red number next to #topp [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:48:55] Quit sbenthall has left this server (Read error: 113 (No route to host)).

[Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:50:37] I like that idea (having a different watchword for local-only stuff), but if that's a nonstarter for various reasons I'll live [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:51:07] rpenate: your personal solution is not very helpful for me, i'm afraid [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:51:29] RaFromBRC: what can i say, it's a lifestyle choice ;) [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:51:34] when i've got my head wrapped around something i'm working on, even the blips (w/o me looking at them) is disruptive [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:51:48] I think I find it less-instrusive personally than RaFromBRC, but I agree it can be disruptive [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:51:59] plus, it makes me sad that I don't have ice cream cake :( [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:52:55] the second keyword option seems appropriate [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:53:29] at the very least, we don't need people yelling "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" or saying "happy *chtung"... that'd be a decent start [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:53:58] RaFromBRC: i think that is a related but different problem regarding channel etiquette [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:54:35] rpenate: might i refer you to my original posting: "RaFromBRC notes that the gratuitous use of *chtung has been steadily increasing" [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:54:44] ;-) [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:54:49] fair [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:55:50] * RaFromBRC is probably a little extra testy this AM since his mail client is giving him problems [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:56:26] RaFromBRC: i think you and i have enough of an understanding to understand each other ;) [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:57:04] rpenate: true dat [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:57:38] RaFromBRC: so a new—more parochial—keyword with less implied urgency [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:57:55] RaFromBRC: being that you initially suggested @chtung, do you have any suggestions? [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:58:48] goulash? [Mon Apr 7 2008] [14:59:18] that seems lunchy
