Happy Sysadmin Day
-
El Reg assures me this is today. I thought it was in May personally.
To those of TDWTF who have the joys of Sysadmin, we salute you. For your courage and valour in the face of stupidity, we salute you.
That is all. You may return to your regularly scheduled caffeine intake.

So was misquoting me, but that makes us even.

Don't be so hard on yourself, @Arantor.
-
You know being hard on myself is my speciality.
-
this is rapidly heading in a phallic direction
-
I can't help it if everyone around here is sex mad.
-
you just better hope they dont get any STIs, because the doctor will totally blame your coding for it...

Sex is like something I remember. Been a while.

I wanted to make a funny reply, but nothing occurs to me.
-
If everyone around here has mad sex, it must be like socks. Tons of it about but I never seem to get any.

The solution is the same for both. Just look for the odd ones.
-
I'm the odd one.
I miss being part of more than just a single person. But the last two other halves... kind of messed me up. More than usual, I mean.

You should do what I did and import one. They'll just assume your weirdness is cultural.
-
No, there's weirdness in here that even culture can't cover up.

Hold on, we are still talking about socks, right?
-
You were talking about socks?
-
-
Yes, the imported ones are far less judgemental.
If I ever reach a day where my socks are judging me, I'd say I have bigger problems than my socks.

People ever used 32-bit values for collision detection?
-
A guy in my company decided that it was a good idea to use them as a lightweight unique identifier. I'm still trying to kill the code and the field that the code is dependent on.
Unfortunately at the moment the code is a loop that attempts 10 times to find a unique one and then gives up. It still burns in the back of my mind from time to time.

You have my condolences.

It would appear @PJH also has blue balls, after all.

-
I have a whole selection of them now. Decided to re-do the graphic since I lost the xcf for the last one.
-
You should really re-render them with proper global illumination.
-
Nope no brown. Just different shades of blue, red and piss yellow.
-
And I find it rather worrying that you noticed so soon after I changed it...
-
It was either pure coincidence or I am actively stalking you.

As I pointed out else-thread - i'm no gimp wizard; I just know what to put into google to get what I need out.
Though I may consider some sort of animation...
-
That's not blue, that's cyan!
-
-
Best I could do on short notice:
Now I got to go do actual work.
-
Well, just got a mail from Digium confirming that, yes, today really is the sysadmin day.
-
-
Didn't we say no gifs? Or are you going to use your admin powers?
Can leaders get it too? Please?
-
Meh, needs work. I don't know enough Blender to animate HSV instead of RGB.
@Onyx said:Can leaders get it too? Please?
I'm only a leader...
-
As avatars I mean.
-
This isn't the evil ideas thread.
-

Re-reading the settings, I don't think I can make it specific to individual users.
-
Sigh... ok mom... But can we get fa-spin on them? Pleeeeaaaaaseeee?
-
I suppose I could come up with a cron-job to upload a different png every 5 minutes or so, if I can figure out how to get curl to upload a file...
Sounds like too much hard work though...
-
Figure out how to add custom JS to the page and I will gladly provide scripting help.

I've been having this idea for days of making 366 versions of my avatar with subtly different hues, change it daily and see how long until someone noticed.I guess I'm not that original.
-
I would completely fail at being a systems administrator. Responsible for too much crap for too little money and I lack the temperament to deal with really amazingly stupid users.
Cloud computing, slices and VPS will save us.
But then again, I guess someone has to set that crap up too.
