13:04.48ChoHagWhy does nobody use a bloody href anymore?
13:05.04ChoHagWhat is so fucking great about a thousand lines of javascript popup code?
13:06.49ChoHagSeriously, what does a company hope to gain by complicating the process?
13:10.49dick_turpinNo competition? Lockin? Customer loyalty due to incompatibilities?
13:16.06ChoHagOn the other hand I do find it amusing when those licence acceptance pages force you to agree to the GPL.
13:56.06ChoHag"I just know that if you transfer a compressed file it's slower than an uncompressed file."

14:01.48wethrinChoHag: Who said that?
14:02.33ChoHagOne of the network lusers.
14:02.37ChoHagWr. Winmail.dat.
14:02.40wethrinOh dear
14:02.41wethrinOH DEAR
14:02.45wethrinwinmail.dat can FUCK RIGHT OFF
14:03.03wethrinI think even Microsoft has decided against it nowadays
14:04.06ChoHagHeh I searched google maps for 'monmouth uk' and it found me 'uk near Monmouth, New Jersey, USA'.
14:05.56bilarhchohag: i refuse to believe half the stories you are telling us
14:06.02bilarhyou *must* be making it up
14:06.10ChoHagDo I need to bring a microphone in to work?
14:06.20bilarhyes, i need audio evidence :D
14:07.19bilarhis it one individual in particular that is coming out with these "ideas", or is it the whole team?
14:07.47ChoHagThere's two idiots on the network team, but this is the bigger of the two.
14:08.22ChoHagThankfully he leans more towards windows admin but the two of them get on well and the other one's the team leader
14:08.35ChoHagOr senior cisco manual reader or something of that ilk.
14:08.59ChoHagThe one who knows what he's doing is very quiet and a mere peon, so guess who drives the team.
14:09.37ChoHagAnd that's not even approaching the linux/dba team.
