<0> Sgt, what heinous crime have you committed to deserve that?
<1> wow there are neat divh home cinema systems in my price range
<2> Damn it
<2> Post office closes at 1 on Saturday.
<1> SgtUnix surely *works* for norwegian IRS
<2> SgtUnix: Scary?
<3> Mish_: No, their code is all open source.
<4> SgtUnix: I visited the local Trygdekontor a few weeks ago, they still have what looks like 3270 emulators running on PCs. :)
<0> Open source COBOL? Woha.
<3> http://skatteetaten.no/upload/vedlegg%20etter%201_10_03/ft5p200t.txt <- Sample
<2> 01 SLUTT
<2> lolz
<1> KidArt: English is your 1st language ?
<3> aedinius: you slut!
<2> I GOT SUPER GLUE
<0> Mish, nope.
<1> be careful
<4> SgtUnix: There are a couple of WTFs in there.
<1> i glued once my 2 fingers together
<0> aedi, what are you going to DO with that SUPER glue?
<2> KidArt: My sungl***es broke the other day
<3> hund: more than a couple.
<1> unfortunately denon 's not in the price range
<3> hund: but the code itself seems rather readable compared to what you'd expect of typical COBOL code
<4> Not really.
<3> finally, rid of that guy
<0> Sgt, ***uming you speak norwegian, maybe.
<3> KidArt: yeah, mixing languages like that is a mess
<0> Mish, why do you ask?
<3> KidArt: but I guess they have little choice, it'd be a pain in the *** to replace all those financial terms with english ones and then maintain some kind of dictionary so people wouldn't get so confused
<2> I've learned how to use super glue though now
<0> Sgt, as opposed to the current situation, in which people do not get confused.
<2> After spilling a bunch on my desk I know how to do it
<3> KidArt: they don't?
<0> aedi, what you really want is epoxy.
<2> So I put down a piece of paper
<0> Sgt, I was being sarcastic.
<2> And first thing I pick it up and it goes all over the paper
<3> KidArt: it's sometimes hard to detect sarcasm in text
<0> Sgt, I know.
<4> SgtUnix: Haha, "DECIMAL-POINT IS COMMA." That's how things go when sprakradet is watchin you. :)
<0> Sgt, there's a study on that, even.
<4> +g
<3> hund: yeah
<3> hund: personally I live by "DECIMAL-POINT IS ."
<3> or "IS .."
<3> I guess that's default behavior
<1> but then i'll need to sell new speakers i bought recently
<1> wow i can get receiver + dvd divx + speakers for just 1200 isr moneys
<1> stupid me
<1> nobody's sending me emails
<1> i feel kinda lonely
<0> Sgt, http://www.gsb.uchicago.edu/fac/nicholas.epley/Krugeretal05.pdf
<4> Do "isr moneys" have a currency code?
<0> hund, NIS
<0> or ISR. I'm not sure.
<0> hund, 5 to the Euro, roughly.
<1> wrong
<0> Or is it 6 now... hm.
<4> ISL.
<0> ISL? That makes no sense.
<4> Err. ILS.
<0> Ah, that makes more sense.
<4> http://www.google.com/search?q=1200+ils+in+nok
<4> That's why I asked. :-)
<0> 1200 shekels in nok <-- Works too.
<1> Looks like i need to choose between LG, ProAudio, and PeerLess
<0> Interestingly enough, "1200 shekels in kroner" doesn't work. I guess it can't decide which kroner.
<1> all local names of moneys must be abolished in favor of
<4> KidArt: Yes, but it won't once Bin Laden makes his own state and calls the currency shekels just to be mean against my google habits.
<0> "1200 shekels in norwegian kroner" DOES work.
<3> I have a neat little widget for currency
<1> "israel moneys" "norway money" and like
<1> x.com
<3> hm, israeli money ain't listed
<0> And so does "1200 israeli shekels in norwegian kroner".
<1> your widget is broken
<1> israeli moneys is ightiest currency on face of eart
<3> Mish_: i'll wait till you guys get the Euro
<0> Sgt, I wish.
<3> israel is like a little europe in terrorland
<4> Israel just wants to be in Europe.
<3> yup
<3> why don't they all just move back to europe? they could live on.. uhm... iceland
<1> yeah, i thought about iceland
<1> already
<3> but you found that your fear of polar bears is too strong?
<0> A friend of mine intends to go on a ski trip to iceland. A long one. Until money runs out, basically.
<3> ski trip to iceland? er. sounds corny.
<3> for skiing I'd rather go to germany, austria, italy etc
<3> the alps, in other words
<5> my face is all reddish again
<5> especially my noise and forehead
<5> and neck
<3> farhan: redneck.
<5> haha
<5> yah
<5> even though ya'll would consider me a terrorist :-)
<1> my daughter today solved arith puzzles that my perl script generated
<1> it went ok
<5> how old?
<1> i used figlet to generate big characters
<1> 6
<5> that's a cute age
<3> figlet eh.. very userfriendly
<3> :P
<1> whaddaya know, it has hebrew
<5> Mish_ : how long before babies stop sleeping all the time?
<3> Mish_: are there hebrew numbers?
<6> haha topic
<1> ?
<1> Sgt: no
<1> but i printed "CORRECT" and "NOT CORRECT" in hebrew
<1> also, in red vs green so she didn't need to actually read them
<0> Err, there ARE hebrew numbers. It's just that nobody uses them.
<1> not me, definitely
<0> And with good reason. I don't think there's even a way to represent zero.
<0> Not to speak of fractions or negative numbers. Just naturals.
<3> jews don't like the concept of an empty wallet
<5> in arabic, its a dot. its called a nukhtah. im sure its the same in hebrew
<5> they're both semetic languages
<1> nekuda
<1> dot != zero
<5> what does "whipin the llamas's ***" mean?
<3> up here in the west we just write 0
<5> its the intro of winamp and on the efnet server...
<7> up here in the west we use arabic numbers...
<7> which come from india..
<5> Vraid : some people dispute that
<7> oh?
<5> baghwanis will always say "its ours" but others don't agree
<5> baghwani = old old old name for india
<7> well of course there are always people everywhere who say "it's ours"
<2> OH
<7> and they are bound to disagree with eachother
<2> NOW I'M PISSED
<2> The bottleneck wasn't my network
<2> It's that ****ing USB drive
<8> cool
<3> firewire > usb
<8> USB2 is faster.. :/
<3> uranther: not faster than firewire in practice
<8> but firewire is dixie-chainable
<2> uranther: Not in practice
<5> SgtUnix : yeah, but no one uses firewire
