[15:28:18] elcasey I use my phone for that

[15:28:27] elcasey nice

[15:29:03] elcasey organism: I would be much happier if they would FLAC instead of ALAC but yeah

[15:29:06] elcasey do*

[15:31:18] elcasey I have never had great luck with Spotify

[15:31:22] elcasey and their Linux app is garbage

[15:31:26] elcasey the web app is more useful

[15:32:24] elcasey ok good I am not

[15:32:41] elcasey I tried to do a "family" account and put my Colombian ex-gf on it but they wouldn't allow it

[15:33:29] elcasey yes

[15:33:32] elcasey that is quite a rude album

[15:34:59] elcasey I like to have FLACs on my own storage for the same reason

[15:35:20] elcasey I was a what.cd member for ages and I remain on redacted

[15:35:33] elcasey I even have a couple what.cd tshirts somewhere

[15:35:55] elcasey oh no it's down

[15:36:54] elcasey so weird that songs would ever be "banned"

[15:37:01] elcasey censorship, yeah of course, they all collude on that shit now

[15:37:34] elcasey no, it's speech, and art, so I would never think it's ok even if I found it to be the most offensive and horrific thing I've ever heard

[15:37:47] elcasey I could simply choose never to listen to it :)

[15:39:22] elcasey just silly nonsense

[15:39:46] elcasey ha yeah

[15:39:58] elcasey not for about 30 years+ now but I digress

[15:40:02] elcasey the tracks

[15:40:30] elcasey i can understand putting a sticker over offensive album art on the packaging

[15:40:41] elcasey but then you buy it and tear the plastic off and throw it away

[15:40:43] elcasey now it's yours

[15:41:20] elcasey organism: when I were a lad, this were all fields!

[15:43:14] elcasey you'd have to pay me to go anywhere near grindcore ;D

[15:45:52] elcasey see that's not even saying the illegal thing about killing the President

[15:45:57] elcasey so censoring that is horseshit

[15:46:35] elcasey h4: no, speech is speech. It's supposed to "free" here. You (and especially the govt!) don't get to pick and choose.

[15:46:42] elcasey nor do I

[15:47:26] elcasey not getting on my soapbox hehe, just saying that I would be a hypocrite if I was "outraged" at someone having lyrics about sniping Trump, but not about Bush or Obama. And thaqt ain't how I roll.

[15:47:45] elcasey yeah fuck all the Bushes

[15:47:50] elcasey and the Cheneys

[15:48:11] elcasey h4: right, and I get there's reasons for it, but it's also not freedom

[15:48:21] elcasey :D

[15:48:28] elcasey organism: he was one of the good ones, yes ;D

[15:48:48] elcasey yes, and pieces of shit have rights. Not disputing one iota that they are pieces of shit!

[15:49:21] elcasey just saying (and not in the context of Germany here) that if someone, especially in the US where we have the 1st Amendment, wants to talk about free speech, that includes ALL speech, including hate speech by pieces of shit

[15:49:53] elcasey but anyway, it really doesn't matter because I don't have any control over any of this shit :P

[15:49:56] elcasey lmao

[15:50:04] elcasey h4: I'll say that to the cleaner maybe

[15:50:31] elcasey organism: but that's not speech or expression so much as a threat of violence

[15:50:57] elcasey h4: pls, i would never :D

[15:52:34] elcasey organism: that's always why we (US) have legal precedents of what is and is not protected speech, but I agree that once could spend one's entire career arguing about the finer points

[15:52:39] elcasey s/always/also/

[15:52:52] elcasey fuck me, ONE COULD, not once

[15:53:04] elcasey brain, smarten the fuck up and start communicating with the fingers

[15:53:22] elcasey ugh, meetings begin in 7 minutes ... for 3 hours. I HAVE THE WORST JOB IN THE WORLD

[15:53:29] elcasey cadbury's choclit fangres

[15:54:00] elcasey organism: make sure you ain't doing Arla dairy with that Bovaer Billy Gates shite in it ;()

[15:54:16] elcasey organism: no it is just listening to rubbish for 3 hours

[15:54:36] elcasey this client ... this must be what it feels like to work for the govt

[15:55:02] elcasey they wanna spend literally 4 months having committee meetings to "arrive at a consensus" ... how about someone makes a goddamn decision?

[15:55:23] elcasey (anyway, we finally got a decision yesterday, but with a bunch of bullshit hand-wringing caveats)

[15:57:38] elcasey yeah this is a private firm

[15:57:59] elcasey and not even tech, they are a big industrial concern

[15:58:08] elcasey they did get hacked and ransomwared to fuck last year :D

[15:58:19] elcasey so I try to be patient. But they are just intolerable.

[15:58:25] elcasey Bunch of Windows fuckwits living in the 00s

[15:59:29] elcasey h4: I at least was pleased to hear one of their dev leads say "Powershell is pretty fucked up, it leaks RAM like a sieve" :D

[15:59:37] elcasey yes, yes it does

[15:59:40] elcasey H1M3M: enjoy sir

[16:00:13] elcasey ^

[16:00:20] elcasey I just want to DO THE WORK

[16:00:28] elcasey not talk about it for 6 damn months

[16:00:38] elcasey let me go do what I'm good at, which isn't whatever this is

[16:01:26] elcasey hehe

[16:02:21] elcasey h4: next week I will be out there onsite

[16:02:41] elcasey h4: and luckily I heard the big boss say "If you need alcohol to get you out here, we'll take care of that"

[16:02:43] elcasey :D

[16:03:39] elcasey :D

[16:03:48] elcasey h4: lol that is gonna happen regardless

[16:04:02] elcasey why?

[16:04:08] elcasey free meal, bit of booze and chat

[16:04:45] elcasey my company stopped booze at company parties first, then they just stopped doing company parties

[16:05:00] elcasey but when we're with a client we always take them out and there is a lot of booze

[16:05:16] elcasey awww that sucks, you basically get to work during the event

[16:05:27] elcasey :D

[16:06:11] elcasey I must not be TOO bad because I have been absolutely hammered at some point with every client I've worked with since late 2018 (I was a good boy my first year)

[16:10:33] elcasey :D

[16:16:36] elcasey :D

[16:16:51] elcasey all a bit Stephen King "Misery"

[16:20:24] elcasey organism: you calling me a corpse mate?

[16:21:12] elcasey :D

[16:21:25] elcasey pickled

[16:22:24] elcasey omg these people do standup so wrong

[16:22:54] elcasey give your status, stfu, move on. you need a working session? set one up. stop trying to solve tech shit on standup.

[16:23:42] elcasey this is why I hate these meetings so much. 23 minutes in, we've managed to get status on 3 of 8 work items

[16:24:20] elcasey it is so rare

[16:24:47] elcasey but i was on one project where we had a scrum master who wouldn't put up with anyone's shit, she would just tell the devs to stop trying to solve an issue on standup and we'd move along

[16:24:49] elcasey i miss her

[16:25:03] elcasey never went more than 15 minutes, it was brilliant

[16:27:49] elcasey thanks

[16:38:11] elcasey 38 minutes and these jokers are still going

[16:38:15] elcasey ffs

[16:41:02] elcasey they ended it while I was having a piss and I couldn't even hang up

[16:41:43] elcasey yes

[16:41:48] elcasey made my day

[16:59:15] elcasey x)

[19:10:53] elcasey depends on if we're talking Jägermeister or what ;)

[19:13:29] elcasey depends on if they can shoot back
