| 15:42.25 | frostyfrog | Well... Maybe I'll go. Just a bit worried about that stuff. |
| 15:44.55 | frostyfrog | is one who er... Feels fake pain feeling when seeing that stuff. Less strong when hearing, if I tune it out a bit... |
| 15:45.39 | aeryndunham | Dangit, I'm going to have all my computer pieces by Friday - except the case - which won't be here until next week :p |
| 15:49.04 | youtah | frostyfrog, yeah... I wouldnt worry about it |
| 15:49.45 | frostyfrog | Alright, thanks youtah. :) |
| 15:50.37 | spangborn | aeryndunham: cardboard and duct tape time |
| 15:50.43 | frostyfrog | aeryndunham: You got the guts, but not the skeleton. You'be got a living organism! :D (Hey, it works without a case) |
| 15:51.06 | aeryndunham | since I've never built a computer, I'm probably gonna wait for the case :p |
| 15:56.29 | aeryndunham | also I'm irrationally excited about my obnoxious rgb keyboard :p |
| 16:09.01 | manithree | I never build new parts straight into a case. I always test everything before I go to the trouble of mounting the mobo. |
| 16:09.47 | frostyfrog | I think that's a very rational reason to be excited |
| 16:09.59 | aeryndunham | frostyfrog: IT'S SO PRETTY :p |
| 16:10.25 | frostyfrog | Mine's just a single color. Still love it to bits though :3 |

| 16:13.14 | frostyfrog | aeryndunham: http://www.roccat.org/en-US/Products/Gaming-Keyboards/Ryos-Series/Ryos-MK-Pro/ The one I'd gotten. |

| 16:15.57 | aeryndunham | Although I'm frustrated because people keep asking for my part list and invariably someone has a major issue with SOMETHING I've chosen |
| 16:17.02 | unum | that's the thing with techies |
| 16:17.11 | keldwud | aeryndunham, you know this parts list that you shared with me? well, I don't understand why you're not using baz instead of bar. I mean, it just doesn't make sense since you are using foo and everyone knows that bar fits better with foo than bar. |
| 16:17.14 | unum | we all have very strong arbitrary opinions |
| 16:17.16 | keldwud | ;) |
| 16:17.24 | keldwud | vi vs emacs |
| 16:17.27 | keldwud | spaces vs tabs |
| 16:17.31 | aeryndunham | hah |
| 16:17.32 | keldwud | ubuntu vs centos |
| 16:17.33 | unum | tabs!!!!!! |
| 16:17.36 | keldwud | sysv vs systemd |
| 16:17.43 | jlp_znc | you got something against baz, keldwud? |
| 16:17.44 | unum | what's wrong with you? were you dropped on your head |
| 16:17.45 | keldwud | RELIGIOUS WARS! |
| 16:17.52 | unum | debian |
| 16:17.53 | keldwud | jlp_znc: yeah man, baz sucks! |
| 16:17.57 | jlp_znc | you suck! |
| 16:17.59 | unum | you ubuntu users and your laptops |
| 16:18.02 | keldwud | YOUR FACE SUCKS! |
| 16:18.11 | jlp_znc | your face *is* the suck! |
| 16:18.19 | keldwud | oh snap, that's a good one |
| 16:18.20 | unum | if you even own a laptop you've clearly never done any real work |
| 16:18.25 | jlp_znc | heh |
| 16:18.48 | keldwud | unum: I own a chromebook. not even a real laptop! |
| 16:18.54 | aeryndunham | Hey now, I worked at sea for 6 years, a desktop computer would have been WILDLY impractical |
| 16:18.57 | keldwud | I haven't had a desktop machine since 2006 |
| 16:18.59 | jlp_znc | unum, don't you know it is all ... hmmm, what's the word the kids use for "cool" these days? |
| 16:19.18 | unum | chromebooks are greate if you're employed as a blogger |
| 16:19.35 | keldwud | I do OPS and DEVOPS WORK WITH MY CHROMEBOOK! |
| 16:19.44 | jlp_znc | personally, I think chromebooks are grater... you know, like a cheese grater? |
| 16:19.45 | keldwud | there were some speed bumps for sure |
| 16:19.49 | unum | not REAL OPS |
| 16:20.03 | keldwud | but I just use my kindle fire to shore up any inconsistencies that my chromebook may have |
| 16:20.13 | keldwud | I use that to RDP to any windows instances I need to manage |
| 16:20.14 | keldwud | :-p |
| 16:20.17 | unum | :) |
| 16:20.23 | keldwud | and I'm actually being serious. that's the scary part. |
| 16:20.23 | unum | that made me laugh |
| 16:20.27 | unum | lol |
| 16:20.29 | jlp_znc | I use my kindle fire to shore up my kitchen table |
| 16:20.36 | unum | I forgot what the kids do these days |
| 16:20.37 | keldwud | because I really don't have any real machines at home :) |
| 16:20.37 | jlp_znc | (I'm kidding, I don't have a kindle fire) |
| 16:21.21 | unum | my kids use my kindle fire to watch octonaughts while watching super why |
| 16:21.37 | RyanE | my wife likes hers. |
| 16:21.40 | RyanE | but she's a 'consumer'. |
| 16:22.02 | aeryndunham | On ships, the most ancient and technologically illiterate passengers ALWAYS had Kindle Fires, which were of course the one tablet where I couldn't create them a home screen icon to connect and disconnect from our system |
| 16:22.14 | jlp_znc | of course |
| 16:22.20 | keldwud | I use my kindle fire for homework videos when on the go or on the train |
| 16:22.30 | jlp_znc | "young lady, can you help me do the internets on this?" |
| 16:22.38 | keldwud | things like linuxacademy and udacity and stuff |
| 16:22.40 | aeryndunham | I have a Kindle Paperwhite, which I love, but I don't like the Fires |
| 16:22.49 | keldwud | I love my kindle voyage! it's dope! |
| 16:23.05 | keldwud | I read on the voyage and consume media on my fire hdx |
| 16:23.06 | jlp_znc | keldwud dates himself |
| 16:23.08 | RyanE | I wouldn't mind a paperwhite for books, etc. |
| 16:23.12 | jlp_znc | "dope" |
| 16:23.29 | keldwud | the voyage is like paperwhite on steroids |
| 16:23.32 | aeryndunham | One of the biggest issues with the Fire and old people is that they basically don't know they have a web browser because A) nobody knows what a web browser is and B) they 100% do not associate the 'Silk' icon with 'Internet' |
| 16:23.48 | keldwud | wait what? I can browse the web on my fire? |
| 16:23.50 | keldwud | ;) |
| 16:23.56 | keldwud | I use my chromebook for web browsing |
| 16:24.10 | jlp_znc | which chromebook do you have? |
| 16:24.16 | keldwud | umm, |
| 16:24.37 | jlp_znc | I have one of the old pony chromebooks... I think it was called a "mario pony" or something like that. |
| 16:24.52 | keldwud | dell chromebook 11 looks like |
| 16:25.08 | aeryndunham | Chromebooks also didn't work particularly well on our ships |
| 16:25.11 | jlp_znc | I'm not sure where the power supply is, though. it started having a problem with the keyboard where it would constantly think I was trying to switch screens. very annoying. |
| 16:27.57 | keldwud | do we know anybody over at Lucid? |
| 16:30.06 | jlp_znc | Lucid Software in South Jordan? |
| 16:30.51 | keldwud | yup :) |
| 16:31.05 | keldwud | I'm interested in checking out an opportunity they have open |
| 16:31.27 | keldwud | just doing the required snooping before talking with them in person |
| 16:31.29 | jlp_znc | according to LinkedIn, there is one person there who went to the same college as I did. she's a recruiter. |
| 16:31.44 | jlp_znc | (she went to school about 20 years after me, though) |
| 16:31.55 | frostyfrog | aeryndunham: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/HpK8kT That's what an online friend recommended for my upgrade. |
| 16:32.13 | unum | They usually have a decent group of people at openwest |
| 16:32.18 | keldwud | jlp_znc: hah. that's why I never like adding recruiters to my contacts |
| 16:32.33 | unum | I know one guy there |
| 16:32.33 | jlp_znc | oh, she's not a contact... just a fellow alumnus |
| 16:32.37 | keldwud | also, that makes you OOOOoooooOld |
| 16:32.41 | keldwud | :-p |
| 16:32.43 | jlp_znc | :-) |
| 16:32.43 | unum | but I don't think I have any contact information for him |
| 16:32.59 | aeryndunham | frostyfrog, Hmm, I didn't get a case fan |
| 16:33.05 | jlp_znc | youth and skill will never triumph over age and treachery |
| 16:33.27 | keldwud | unum: no worries. I don't need a referral or anything. They approached me, so I think I should be alright. just checking to see if I had any potential contacts there already |
| 16:33.44 | frostyfrog | aeryndunham: Yeah, I was told that the case there only came with 1 front fan but it had placement for 2. |
| 16:34.07 | keldwud | oh hey, if I do end up working out in south jordan, maybe I can finally do some running with TodPunk up jordan river |
| 16:34.23 | aeryndunham | frostyfrog, Looks cheap though, if I end up needing it |
| 16:34.43 | frostyfrog | yup |
| 16:36.58 | aeryndunham | Chris is giving me his GPU but it's slightly defective :/ (one of the fans doesn't work all the time) |
| 16:37.30 | jlp_znc | buy a new fan! |
| 16:37.52 | aeryndunham | Yeah, I will |
| 16:38.09 | aeryndunham | He just bought a new one because a better one existed, or something |
| 16:38.23 | aeryndunham | His need to have the best GPU puzzles me, he's mostly just playing Hearthstone |
| 16:39.08 | jlp_znc | maybe he mines bitcoin in his spare time... or some altcoin since bitcoin is hard now. |
| 16:39.28 | aeryndunham | haha maybe |
| 16:44.03 | frostyfrog | Uhh... hearthstone? |
| 16:44.18 | frostyfrog | No VR? No intensive FPS shooters? |
| 16:44.38 | aeryndunham | No! He fires up Overwatch once in a while |
| 16:44.47 | frostyfrog | He should easily be able to get by on last years GPUs--- |
| 16:44.49 | frostyfrog | Ah. |
| 16:45.18 | frostyfrog | Well, even with last years GPUs, I think he should be able to play overwatch on epic settings |
| 16:45.27 | aeryndunham | yeah, he can |
| 16:45.42 | keldwud | omg hearthstone has been my addiction recently |
| 16:45.46 | keldwud | the grind! |
| 16:45.54 | aeryndunham | I think he theoretically WANTS to be playing all these more intensive games, but just... doesn't |
| 16:46.05 | aeryndunham | I almost have him convinced to play WoW again with me :p |
| 16:46.08 | keldwud | I hate how blizzard has fine tuned their F2P systems to make you pay money out of frustration |
| 16:46.11 | frostyfrog | I mean, unless he's playing ARK or some other intensive FPS games, I don't think he needs anything better... |
| 16:46.33 | keldwud | that's the other thing I use my kindle fire for.... |
| 16:46.46 | aeryndunham | frostyfrog, And yet he just bought an Nvidia 1080ti :p |
| 16:47.01 | keldwud | I got into hearthstone because magic was just too damned expensive but then I went and dropped way too much money on hearthstone anyway |
| 16:47.08 | aeryndunham | haha |
| 16:47.08 | frostyfrog | Overwatch ran fine on the 980 :p |
| 16:47.14 | aeryndunham | Hah, yes it does |
| 16:47.17 | aeryndunham | But now the 980 is mine :p |
| 16:47.51 | frostyfrog | Seriously though, that's a waste of resources if you ask me. |
| 16:48.00 | aeryndunham | I think he knows he's ridiculous |
| 16:48.14 | frostyfrog | make sure? :p |
| 16:48.17 | aeryndunham | haha |
| 16:48.55 | keldwud | speaking of waste of resources... |
| 16:49.04 | keldwud | <insert your mom joke here> |
| 16:49.13 | jlp_znc | ooooo, burn! |
| 16:49.30 | jlp_znc | ~yourmom |
| 16:49.30 | infobot | it has been said that yourmom is a man |
| 16:49.39 | aeryndunham | He's always wanted to play ARK after he watched a competition on Twitch one day, maybe I'll convince him to play it just to make use of his GPU :p |
| 16:49.48 | keldwud | you know, sometimes I get paranoid during job hunts about how I act in here and worry about a potential manager remembering me from IRC |
| 16:49.56 | aeryndunham | lol |
| 16:50.08 | jlp_znc | well, that didn't stop me from trying to get you a job at Verisys |
| 16:50.09 | frostyfrog | aeryndunham: Highest graphics. Don't settle for less. |
| 16:50.21 | frostyfrog | xD |
| 16:50.21 | keldwud | jlp_znc: true that :) thank you |
| 16:50.23 | jlp_znc | (it was Verisys, I think, wasn't it?) |
| 16:50.27 | keldwud | yeah, it was |
| 16:50.55 | aeryndunham | I want the couple games I play to run on highest graphics settings, and the 980 will defffffinitely have that covered |
| 16:50.55 | jlp_znc | I think anyone in here is probably okay. |
| 16:51.03 | keldwud | I'm just really horrible at interviews. but I think I'll get this Lucid job because it's not super formal, he has been very casual with me from the beginning |
| 16:51.22 | jlp_znc | who is the hiring manager? |
| 16:51.25 | keldwud | and I do a lot better when I'm relaxed in an informal setting and don't have as difficult a time selling myself |
| 16:51.31 | frostyfrog | aeryndunham: yup, easily. |
| 16:51.48 | aeryndunham | Although, The Sims 4 is surprisingly demanding to run on Ultra :P |
| 16:52.05 | aeryndunham | but man the lighting in that game is incredible if you are on highest settings |
| 16:52.08 | keldwud | jlp_znc: David Torgerson |
| 16:52.58 | keldwud | looks like most of the team might be LDS, though, so I should tread carefully |
| 16:53.47 | jlp_znc | looks like David knows Tony Ventrano (recruiter who got me my job here at Medici) |
| 16:53.53 | keldwud | I assume LDS because you have to be LDS and in good standing to work for the church |
| 16:54.37 | jlp_znc | yes... mind your P's and Q's. and keep the swearing to a minimum. :-) |
| 16:55.47 | jlp_znc | David also knows Miguel Saldarriaga, who I worked with at Verisys for about a week. |
| 16:55.50 | keldwud | I've been to interviews where they swear and interviews where they don't. but it's good to know ahead of time, for sure |
| 16:56.38 | jlp_znc | I can ask Miguel if there is anything about David you should know (like if he would get offended easily) |
| 17:01.11 | keldwud | probably a good idea. I've been away from an LDS environment for so long that I might accidentally say something dumb |
| 17:08.57 | jlp_znc | Miguel says "He's a nice guy, with lots of enterprise IT knowledge. He won't be offended that easily." |
| 17:18.23 | keldwud | ok cool. yeah, he definitely sounded like he knew his stuff. |
| 17:19.01 | keldwud | and thanks for following up with your contacts, I appreciate it |
| 17:19.06 | keldwud | s/it/the effort |
| 17:23.26 | jlp_znc | no prob, man. |
