| 00:00.03 | formi | sarahe: sharpish |
| 00:00.56 | formi | Leeds: is that like bondage or you just plainly enjoy it? |
| 00:01.09 | Leeds | for fun, and so I can hack on it |
| 00:01.32 | Leeds | it's (largely) unmaintained code |
| 00:01.47 | gregj | sorry for that |
| 00:02.37 | Leeds | new2unix: which phone network are you on? I was talking about you earlier... |
| 00:03.41 | formi | Leeds: new2unix is in a very dodgy network |
| 00:04.03 | new2unix | Leeds Tmobile |
| 00:04.47 | Leeds | ah, okay... people were asking about the T630 |
| 00:05.06 | new2unix | Leeds: talking about me? was it something i did, something i was supposed to do which i havent yet done, both or neither? |
| 00:05.10 | new2unix | Oh. :) |
| 00:06.13 | rhowe | "Americans will have to try harder if they want to patent business method software, following the refusal of the US Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) to grant a patent for a method of plotting a point on the graph." |
| 00:06.23 | wethrin | ha! |
| 00:06.38 | wethrin | That's probably the first patent they've refused for a long time |
| 00:07.16 | Leeds | new2unix: I explained just how shaky the software was :-) |
| 00:07.42 | rhowe | wethrin: He probably didn't describe it accurately enough or something :) |
| 00:07.52 | rhowe | wethrin: Or maybe he didn't draw his axes with a ruler |
| 00:08.07 | wethrin | Ah :) |
| 00:09.04 | new2unix | Leeds: NO. it was simply due to International Roaming. T-mobile have several phone Networks in Belgium they are associated with. |
| 00:09.20 | formi | rhowe: the studity of an "u$ individual only driven my money lust" is near to infinity |
| 00:10.02 | rhowe | stupidity? :) |
| 00:10.44 | formi | yeap, I was too harsh, let's give a bit of credit, "is the square of infinity" |
| 00:11.05 | new2unix | Leeds: It hadnt and hasnt happened since then. Of course we could always blame it on the user error. You. |
| 00:11.38 | new2unix | s/the// |

| 00:14.04 | murble | I always so no to things like that, i had to really shout at amazon to get them to forget my number, so it seems it is common enough to hold random peoples creditcard numbers online ready to be stolen |
| 00:14.06 | rhowe | sarahli: The school song? |
