09:25.14 | ChoHag | Gmail's filter rules are utter shit. |
09:29.49 | AndyMillar | indeed, have you considered using someone better for email? |
09:37.26 | ChoHag | Yes. |
09:37.32 | ChoHag | Actually I'm just trying gmail out. |
09:37.45 | ChoHag | I'm not impressed, although the spam has been mercifully reduced. |
09:38.18 | AndyMillar | ChoHag: I find using postini quite good for dealing with spam |
09:38.33 | ChoHag | I haven't bothered with a spam filter on my own server yet. Checking gmail was supposed to be a way to get all that I have now (webmail, imap, etc.) with spam filtering without having to actually implement and maintain a spam filter. |
09:38.34 | AndyMillar | I might get 1-2 spam emails through a year |
09:38.45 | ChoHag | Also, I hate running an email server. |
09:39.26 | AndyMillar | also: you trust someone else to suitable handle and secure your email (contacts, and calendar)? |
09:39.51 | ChoHag | For regular email it's fine. |
09:39.59 | ChoHag | I wouldn't put anything confidential through google. |
09:40.08 | ChoHag | And there will be backups. |
09:40.14 | ChoHag | s/will be/would have been/ |
09:41.54 | ChoHag | And yeah, not having to set up things like my own calendar would be nice. |

12:05.12 | morsing | ChoHag: You can still use Google to filter your mail before sending it to your own mail server... |
12:13.47 | ChoHag | I'm considering it. |
12:43.17 | ChoHag | Why is it that all the good actors have bit parts while all the actors with major roles are basically tits? |
12:43.21 | ChoHag | And not in a good way. |
12:44.12 | morsing | Mmm... tits |
12:46.08 | *** join/#gllug ivan_ (~ivan@shell.devco.net) |
12:46.17 | ChoHag | Tits indeed. |
12:47.14 | ivang | got a job going in london if anyone is interested |
12:47.16 | ivang | http://goo.gl/Y880t |
12:47.42 | ChoHag | You don't understand. |
12:47.44 | ChoHag | This is GLLUG. |
12:47.53 | ivang | did i do it wrong? |
12:48.20 | ChoHag | Unless you're offering 50 bajintillion dollars an hour nobody here is interested. |
12:48.26 | ivang | i imagined so |
12:48.49 | ivang | no one know of any unjaded youngsters looking for a start? |
12:48.56 | ChoHag | You should see some of the shitstorms there have been on the mailing list after job adverts offering merely 40kpa and such. |
12:49.26 | ChoHag | Mine's only 7 months. She shows promise but I don't think she's ready. |
12:49.34 | ivang | when i'm recruiting a starting position? |
12:49.36 | ChoHag | Plus she lacks the 2 years experience. |
12:49.47 | ivang | can't offer 40k for graduate jobs really can you |
12:49.58 | ChoHag | ivang: You have never met a larger group of cocks than the members of GLLUG. |
12:50.23 | ivang | it's a funny thing, we recruit in edinburgh as well |
12:50.24 | ChoHag | Hmm also she can't speak English. She's only got as far as Mama. |
12:50.31 | ivang | with relative ease |
12:50.52 | ivang | i have considered siring a dynasty |
12:50.59 | ivang | as an alternative to recruitment |
12:51.00 | ChoHag | People who aren't in London probably don't feel the need to imagine they're priveleged. |
12:51.06 | ivang | keep them in the family cloud provider business |
12:51.19 | ChoHag | However you spell it. |
12:51.46 | ChoHag | Have you tried the linuxjobs mailing list? |
12:52.01 | ChoHag | Generally fewer egos and the mods are usually on the ball. |
12:52.11 | ivang | yes, think so |
12:53.24 | ivang | anyway, just thought i'd put it out here |
12:53.50 | ivang | thanks for the feedback |

16:03.26 | ChoHag | "I sometimes get a little fright walking down a dark hallway in my own home if the house creaks even slightly" how the fuck did we ever evolve? |
16:51.43 | ChoHag | I have to send a company this email: |
16:51.49 | ChoHag | I think you may be the first service provider who have ever sent me a 'we will disconnect you' message with sufficient time to actually pay up before the cut-off date. |
16:51.56 | ChoHag | Unfortunately, in this case, I don't actually use any of your services. |
16:52.42 | ChoHag | I started signing up for ADSL with goscomb but never got all the way through. They've been billing me for the past 6 months anyway. |
16:53.20 | ChoHag | That said - they seem pretty good. An actual warning before cut-off and it's a Tuesday, not the standard 4:45 on Friday. |
