[12:46]<mjzymygo>cool... type extra hard
[12:46]<kjr>awilkins: I think it's time to pretend you were playing Carmina Burana on your keyboard ;)
[12:46]<zyccus>awilkins: now that's antisocial
[12:46]<rwyfcygs>Kog: Real Men do not admit to watching ghost
[12:46]<kjr>awilkins: bullshit
[12:46]<rwyfcygs>rikkus: Productive though.
[12:47]<rwyfcygs>Kog: Oh, ok then, the bit where Demi Moore snogs Whoopi Goldberg makes me cry
[12:47]<zyccus>anything with whoopi goldberg in it makes me cry - tears of pain
[12:47]<rwyfcygs>Dell were rebadging something approximating a Model M with their workstations a while back
[12:47]<rwyfcygs>I nearly pinched one from my old office
[12:48]<rwyfcygs>They had a roomful of these workstations for testing sitting around unused
[12:48]<kjr>awilkins: man... ain't no one hate Ghost
[12:48]<kjr>rikkus: and that's why you're a nobody!
[12:48]<kjr>awilkins: that's not hating, that's saturation
[12:49]<zyccus>Moridin8: that's the one I'm using
[12:49]<rwyfcygs>The wife likes slushy movies too much
[12:49]<kjr>speaking of movies... I caught the one movie where Ahnold can actually act!
[12:49]<rwyfcygs>Which one?
[12:49]<kjr>End of days
[12:49]<kjr>or whatever it was called
[12:49]<mjzymygo>rikkus: I think it's the best keyboard I have *ever* used....
[12:49]<zyccus>Moridin8: nice and springy compared to the deadness of the logitech I was on before
[12:49]<kjr>it had ~1/3 of The Usual Suspects as its cast ;)
[12:49]<rwyfcygs>He did carry off being a drunken hasbeen quite well
[12:49]<kjr>awilkins: what, when he was governor?
[12:49]<rwyfcygs>:-)
[12:50]<zyccus>Moridin8: I might say that too... though I did like the 'happy hacking' keyboards I used to use
[12:50]<rwyfcygs>The ones with blank keytops?
[12:50]<mjzymygo>rikkus: yeh, and not overloaded with all those dumb extra's that make the keyboard heavy large and clunky...
[12:50]<rwyfcygs>I like heavy large and clunky
[12:50]<mjzymygo>*pukes*
[12:50]<rwyfcygs>I bought an old Model M
[12:51]<zyccus>I would prefer to have no numeric keypad - or to have it on the left, so the mouse is closer to the right side
[12:52]<rwyfcygs>The Cherry i have is nice, but it's not as "heavy gauge" as the Model M at home
[12:52]<mjzymygo>nah... I like the numeric keypad... I use it a lot for one reason or another
[12:53]<zyccus>my gf does... she uses it for numbers... I keep using the top row, even though I'm completely inaccurate on it
[12:53]<zyccus>I should start using the keypad really
[12:53]<mjzymygo>hehe...
[12:53]<mjzymygo>I used to do a lot of crappy data entry shite when I was a student. Kinda got comfy with the numeric keypad...
[12:54]<mjzymygo>ewww.
[12:54]<mjzymygo>nice money though huh?
[12:55]<mjzymygo>they pay well
[12:55]<zyccus>actually yes, it was a decently paid temp job, for data entry
[12:55]<sdnffdxdlld>anyone know how to stop a Sql Assembly project from deploying verytime you run any project in the same solution?
[12:55]<zyccus>though it was miles away and the temp agency wouldn't pay for taxis, so it was 2 hours on buses each way
[12:55]<sdnffdxdlld>its annoying :/
[12:56]<mjzymygo>I had to process borked cars from the RAC, Greenflag and the police... you should seen the state of the gore on the motorcycles that came in ;)
[12:56]<zyccus>nice
[12:56]<mjzymygo>smellyhippy: look at the ability to turn off certain builds for the solution.
[12:57]<mjzymygo>rikkus: no... not really.
[12:57]<mjzymygo>but there is always that morbid fascination the mechanics had of trying to find splintered bone...
[12:57]<sdnffdxdlld>under dependancies?
[12:57]<sdnffdxdlld>ahhh nm
[12:58]<sdnffdxdlld>remembered where it was
[12:58]<mjzymygo>smellyhippy: Config Props
[13:04]<zyccus>when I get turned into a robot and have a few backups of my brain lying around, I'll go for it
[13:06]<mjzymygo>^^^ agrees
[13:07]<mjzymygo>All I will say is that my decision on this was reached without question when a mechanic walked into the office and held in a oily rag the remains of a finger...
[13:07]<mjzymygo>I'll let your imagination draw the rest of it...
[13:11]<mjzymygj|pxjgn>Help.... whats the catch with this? http://www.dotnet-webhosting.com/dotnet-hosting/default.aspx
[13:13]<zyccus>it doesn't say how much RAM or CPU you get
[13:13]<zyccus>perhaps you get something stupid like 256M and a 1000th share of a P4
[13:13]<mjzymygj|pxjgn>rikkus: can yo recommend someone?
[13:14]<zyccus>well, my friend uses 1and1, who seem ok... but he has dedicated hosting, so can't really comment on shared
[13:14]<zyccus>50 quid charge to 'set up' your sql server?
[13:15]<mjzymygj|pxjgn>yeh... it looks a bit dodgy...
[13:15]<zyccus>site looks dodgy in general
[13:15]<mjzymygj|pxjgn>well... i'll tell my client ;)
[13:27]<mjzymygj|pxjgn>how do you get a cat to shut up when your on the phone to someone important?
[13:37]<mjzymygo>thanks rikkus
[13:38]<rwyfcygs>"attention"
[13:38]<rwyfcygs>Euphemism for "kick up the arse"
[13:39]<d2>What tools are there for documenting classes ?
[13:39]<zyccus>ndoc
[13:39]<d2>thanks :)
[14:09]<lxzjsvd>hmm, making the scrollbar work in ScrollableControl sure is harder than it should be.
[14:26]<zyccus>Unforgivable hack technique #105233: Using a variable which normally holds the value its name suggests to hold a different value entirely (with a different meaning)
[14:26]<mjzymygo>^^^ happens all too often
[14:27]<zyccus>then I come along and feed the debugger the parameters... and boom
[14:27]<mjzymygo>it's when it goes unnoticed and fubar's the data in a production system that pisses me off
[14:28]<zyccus>this was done by a recent temporary contractor (brought over from India - apparently good value for money)
[14:28]<mjzymygo>apparently...
[14:28]<zyccus>my boss still reckons so
[14:29]<zyccus>I'll show her this later
[14:32]<rnmgxjsv>say in the constructor of my main form i want to exit if a file doesnt exist
[14:33]<rnmgxjsv>is there an immediate way as Application.Exit( ) will not work
[14:33]<zyccus>what happens if you just close yourself?
[14:33]<rnmgxjsv>exits fine
[14:33]<zyccus>I mean by calling Close()
[14:34]<rnmgxjsv>object disposed exception
[14:34]<zyccus>if that doesn't work, one trick is to start a one-shot timer in your ctor and do your initialisation in the event fired when it times out (make it 1ms)
[14:35]<zyccus>you should be able to exit from that event callback
[14:35]<zyccus>er, 'handler'
[14:35]<rnmgxjsv>i can just do my xml config initialization else where i guess
[14:35]<rnmgxjsv>or
[14:35]<rnmgxjsv>import kernel32.ExitProcess( ) o:
[14:37]<zyccus>not good :P
[14:38]<rnmgxjsv>there we go
[14:38]<rnmgxjsv>exitprocess works fine :P
