12:25.37dick_turpinThe price of fish?
12:31.23morsingIs a tick box enough to form a binding contract?
12:31.27morsingOn a website
12:34.41dick_turpin"You did tick the box sir and if you read our T&C's you will see ticking that box acknowledges acceptance
12:36.38morsingI seem to remember the courts saying it doesn't hold
12:37.33dick_turpinDunno, as I say I would suspect if it's in the small print......
12:37.47morsingNot the point...
12:39.57dick_turpinWhat is the point?
12:40.54morsing12:31 < morsing> Is a tick box enough to form a binding contract?
12:42.08dick_turpinI just explained that?
12:43.07morsingNo, you started going on about what's in the contract...
12:43.38haliOT
12:43.48halidid you try phoning IBM?
12:43.52halithey might know
12:44.00morsinghali: Idiot
12:45.35dick_turpinWhat? Can you not read or something? If it's in the T&C's that by ticking the box that constitutes it as being a binding contract then the answer to your point is "Yes" irrespective of your "I remember the courts saying it dosen't hold"
12:46.11morsingdick_turpin: *sigh*
12:46.31dick_turpinAnd if you do believe this 'courts' story than the question is pointless as you already know the answer

15:48.58LeedsI ran into Tony last week on Nathan Road
15:49.05Leedsgw280: pretty good, actually
15:49.26gw280yay
15:49.32gw280well I gave notice yesterday
15:49.38Leedseverything is starting the run-up to the Christmas/NY/CNY season
15:49.57Leedsoh, moving again?
15:50.21gw280nope, staying in Toronto
15:50.36LeedsI need to visit Toronto
15:50.44gw280you're always welcome to crash on my sofa
15:50.57Leedswe were thinking of going to Canada for CNY, but ended up with Rome/Florence/Venice/Leeds/London instead
15:51.05gw280lol
15:51.11gw280so yeah, leaving RIM, going to Mozilla
15:51.16Leedsoh, nice
15:51.24Leedsdidn't know you were at RIM... does that make you a rat?
15:51.31gw280I dunno
15:51.35gw280I ended up at RIM by accident
15:51.40gw280(acquisition)
15:51.45Leedsah
15:51.53gw280been here 2 years
15:52.02gw280now it's time for me to move on
15:52.16Leedsbefore the platform burns out from underneath you
15:52.20gw280well
15:52.25gw280I think the media has overhyped things
15:52.26gw280but
15:52.37gw280they underpay me, and I feel unappreciated, and the dev tools are shit
15:53.02Leedssounds normal
15:53.14gw280:P
15:53.26gw280although since the switch to QNX it's been a lot better
15:53.31gw280like, we actually have a debugger
15:53.32gw280:)
15:53.45Leedsthat's good, for all three users of QNX/BBX devices :P
15:54.00gw280:P
15:54.06gw280QNX tools are good, but not THAT good
15:54.18gw280I mean, Apple, MS and even Linux tools are better
15:54.50Leedsneed to start powering things down about now - got an overnight power outage in my building
15:54.56gw280fun
