<0> alright, I think it's going to rain
<1> yawn
<0> agreed
<1> get your new job?
<0> I don't know
<2> mspo: how much longer?
<0> hubertEF- hopefully just a few days
<0> hubertEF- I didn't hear anything from the last job for about six months
<0> as you can tell, my management really has it together ;)
<2> yuck
<2> the last job == your current job?
<0> no, one I applied for and didn't get
<0> that guy, after not saying anything for months, started asking me to help his employees
<0> so I basically said that if he wanted me to work for him, he could have hired me months ago
<0> and then I think his boss told him to talk to me
<0> (I've cleaned this whole thing up a little bit)
<0> hubertEF- but I find it insulting to be turned down for a job and then asked to work on the same stuff as some kind of favor
<0> I mean
<0> what an ***hole move
<0> hey, I know we didn't hire you, but can you do this work for free?
<2> heh, indeed (***hole)
<0> <shrug>
<0> corporate america
<3> is there another america? ;)
<0> I've had to defend my position on doing work for him in the past. ("don't you think you're qualified to do that?" "I'm perfectly qualified, I'm simply not compensated to do it.")
<0> TGEN- I've worked in small companies before and it's a lot different
<3> mspo: yeah, you hear that all the time about now-big hw/sw companies as well
<0> anyway, I have a million stories about stupid stuff at work
<0> "promoting" people and giving them tons of extra responsibility without any raise in pay
<0> hiring friends
<0> etc
<3> hmyeah, what's that called? nepotism?
<0> yep
<0> that's how we ended up getting so many koreans ;)
<3> your CEO is Korean? :)
<0> our senior director is
<3> I see
<3> is his surname Jong-Il, Lee or Park?
<0> nope
<0> mm left wing movies
<0> "Who Killed the Electric Car"
<3> indeed
<4> I imagine that's a genre in itself
<3> I know what prevents an 'Electric Car' from becoming a success currently
<4> they actually consume more energy than gasoline-powered cars, and contribute more to pollution?
<3> no, the weight and volume of an electric storage medium with sufficient capacity is too much
<3> and second best, charging it takes too much time
<3> generating electricity can be done more environmentally friendly than gasoline (no, not thinking about currently uneconomical options like solar or wind energy)
<4> true, but then you get to Pebblebed reactors
<3> but you can hardly beat gasoline for energy density
<3> michie1: coal g***ing is efficient & friendly as well
<3> or bio g***ing generally
<4> hmm
<4> I think someone should build a nuclear car
<4> like they predicted in the 50s and 60s
<3> heh
<4> just for the sheer wastefulness of it
<0> wouldn't it run for a very, very long time?
<0> or.. possibly turn into a time machine?
<3> I'm not sure whether you can cool it properly in something the size of a car
<4> "Do you feel secure in your SUV? Don't count on surviving a collission with our new Nuke-mobile, which carries a 1000 kg lead reactor mantle!"
<5> lol
<0> mmm
<0> so I accidentally made chicken soup tonight
<0> it's really good :)
<4> doesn't a 'dutch oven' mean that you fart under bedsheets?
<0> I think it has a few meanings
<2> mspo, accidentally <=> you opened the wrong can? :)

<0> hubertEF- I usually use rice, which soaks up all of the water from onions, potatoes, etc
<0> hubertEF- but this time I just used beans, which have a lot of water themselves
<0> hubertEF- so I ended up with quite a stock
<0> and I used fattier chicken
<2> mspo: i made vegetable soup tonight, but messed up with the amount of ingredience, and have a HUGE pot now, too ;)
<2> (or mostly vegetable stew, as there was no space left in the put for water ;)
<0> hubertEF- left-over soup is always good
<2> yeah
<2> i just have to find time to eat it - i'm rarely at home the next few days
<6> greetings all
<0> hollo
<3> mspo: hmm, what's Dutch oven cooking? :)
<3> heya dsr
<6> howdy mspo TGEN
<6> anyone is using lfs for things other than/usr/obj ?
<3> nope
<7> builds and such, not just the obj dirs
<7> I may start using it for more soonish
<6> oh.. yeah i meant non-ephemeral partitions
<0> TGEN- it's like roasting
<7> tgen- a 'dutch oven' is a large cast-iron pan, with a lid you can put coals on
<6> and TGEN is dutch :)
<7> generally for open-fire use, though some people call any cast iron c***erole-type dish a 'dutch oven'
<3> oh
<3> well, that's certainly news to me :)
<7> well, yeah, dsr. But I have no illusions that this is anything but american :)
<7> they're excellent for camp-type cooking. ***uming you're not backpacking :)
<0> yeah, a little heavy for that :)
<0> I wouldn't think a dutch person would know the memes "dutch X"
<0> they'd just be X :)
<3> well, I know that it's used for being a cheapskate
<0> you mean like in dating?
<3> generally

<14> no
