[21:17]<dffnw>but I can bridge their phone across any old cable anywhere on campus
[21:19]<msxjv>it's a good feeling to trace some shit out on some 66 blocks via inductance with your finger... and receive a nice shock
[21:19]<msxjv>makes you feel warm and fuzzy about the whole deal
[21:19]<dffnw>ring ring
[21:19]<dffnw>I just hate custom pinouts

[21:20]<msxjv>have about 20 consoles to the mainframe all punched down on 66 blocks and shit-strewn under the raised floor
[21:20]<msxjv>it's a brilliant setup
[21:20]<dffnw>hehe, at least thats gone, well, the cable is still in the floor
[21:21]<dffnw>we have to do a data center cleanup of all the abandoned cables next summer, probably the first in 25 years

[21:25]<msxjv>and some other crap tomorrow, phone screen I setup
[21:25]<vd2r>I like it. we just have the console lines run under the subfloor. I like the 66block idea though.
[21:26]<dffnw>cross connects always suck in the end
[21:27]<msxjv>The wiring here was done by a guy who is like 80 years old now, and literally it's like staring at a cliff face.. how you can see the geological history, well look up above the ceiling and you can see the progression of wiring standards dating back like 40 years
[21:27]<msxjv>haha
[21:27]<msxjv>aka fire hazard like woah
[21:27]<dffnw>so are you interviewing at a shiny new data center?
