Hmm, that's not a bad idea. Seems like sort of a middle ground between the pain in the ass and the overly user friendly. Thanks smile

Arg! Now I've got a clien to meet at 10 instead of going to the bank right at 10. *sighs*

Hopefully it's quick, no actuall work, it's more of a pre-work consultation, so it shouldn't be too long. So quick jaunt into the city, then back out here and to the bank with my dad, and then we'll see where this crazy day takes us....

In regards to the last post, telus did make the attempted VPN install suck.

As for the new job, it's been pretty damn cool. I've been driving all over hells half acre, and thusly have began the hunt for a vehicle to call my own. I finally found what I was looking for friday. Gonna talk to my bank monday morning, and hopefully get the...

Copied from my blog:

I'm Not Dead Yet
The most ridiculous thing has happened.

Yes, sarge was released, but more ridiculous than that.

Yes, Apple is switching to intel chips, but more ridiculous than that.

I got a new job! Thats right boys and girls, your friendly neighbourhood computer tech is now going to be doing PoS development and on call support for said installations....

Ugh... Stress is teh suck.

Looks like I underestimated how much I'd be paying in taxes this year. As ridiculous as it is, it looks like I'm going be obscenely broke for the next while. Very wrong considering I've spent the last 3 days at work doing wiring at a new ricki'sall day grill billing at a obscene rate. But I won't see that till...

My love is on tour and now I must endure the hardship of a Carlaless life for a week. This will bet the longest time we've spent apart in our 8 months together. I hope I remember what she looks like when she gets back.

And now that I've gotten the extreme sappiness out of the way you can all stop hating me...

I am lacking with the posting, I know.

I've considered posting about my latest project, building a MythTV setup. I could write on last weekends festivities, drinking around my best friends firepit for the last time and how that makrs the end of an era I'm truly sad to see go. I want to move out, I want to go just absoulutely hardcore at work,...

Helping with other people's computers problem is always a pain.
Especially because as you're workign on it and any new problems show up the reaction is "what happened?! What's wrong now?!",
and that's even when there's not really a problem.

As far as being worried about what that family thinks, just let them know that you're going to try and fix it.
Don't necessarily let them exactly how long it will take or how hard it will be.
If for whatever reason they're totally opposed to you doing anything well then maybe you shouldn't.
I'd bet though that they wouldn't mind at all and would actually like it probably.

BTW, post something in freenix about your MythTV project.
I've been curious about using that myself.
akuji:
I know it probably matters to you how they react, because ungrateful people will generally bring you down. But regardless of that, you are doing a nice thing. So to make it a truly selfless act of kindness, try to let the consequences become irrelevant. you are truly a nice person. smile

Oh god... the stupidity.

It is almost 10 here. This assignment is due in 14esque hours. Yay CMPUT272.

On the upside my irish breakfast tea looks like coffee and has more sugar in it than a bowl of sugar. Who thinks I'm going to win this one?

For those of you that are curious, Mr_Dave is indeed still alive. It's unfortunately very common for me to dissapear for lengths of time like that, no posting, no IM activity... hell, I've barely been on IRC!! That's almost like not breathing for me.

So yes, alive and well and not having the time to properly peruse the boards and the group talk and the...

Sweet merciful fuck. It seems the world did not have my plan today in mind, or really, this last week.

On the upside, it is sunday. The holy day. The one day a week I get to not work, no matter what. We don't open the shop today. I love that fact. Also, we're open 68 hours a week as it is, I think we've...
