Always two, there are... One master and one apprentice.

I haven't posted a blog in a while... So, have a short bit of randomness.     So, a while back, while at a CC3 training doodah, I started talking with one of the techs. Turns out he works at the school near to where I live.   From what I gathered he was new to tech support, so we swapped details and I said to ask if he wasn't sure about anything* [i think I also mentioned EduGeek as well.]   Now, I'm getting emails/phone calls every so often asking about things and I'm giving out advice wher

I totally love you, man...

[/non-homo]   Following on from here.     Our head has upped his game. No longer is he simply a pretty cool guy. Now he trolls [company] and doesn't afraid of anything.   That's right. ANYTHING.     We've been having issues because of one particular company [Which I'm not naming...] So our HT, instead of doing what I'm used to seeing from other heads [Which would be precisely [censored] all] he's been sending e-mails off to the company, bypassing the faceless drones and going straight for th

There goes that plan...

I've just ordered 4 new computers, due to serious failures in a few classes, and had an idea.   The new computers are licenced for Windows 7 Home Premium [sP1], but will actually be running Windows XP.     My idea was... rejiggle the licences around [Put the licence for the old machine on the new one] and then there'd be some decent Win7 lincences going spare. [which I may or may not have planned to aquire...]     Turns out, you can't do that. Even though we've paid for it, we can't use it h

HOW DO I GET ANY WORK DONE WITH PEOPLE LIKE YOU AROUND?!

Not a rant... More "omg my boss is awesome!" I just felt like sharing.   The following is an ACTUAL e-mail chain sent between the head and myself. [it's also backwards. Most recent at the top.]       Starts off normal... then decends into madness. As usual. [it may also get a worse...]   Sorry it's long... But HTML is disabled and Teh 'Geek doesn't have spoiler tags. [i possibly could have forced the tags with a bit of HTML...]   I've tried to shrinkify it... And turned the images into URL

In other news...

Hey look. A blog post that isn't Project Borg related.   It's pony related. [Among other things] [[censored] ponies... how do they work?]   I'm sitting around herping, derping and generally searching things on the interweb when our Head of Math asks me about my desktop wallpaper.   So far, it's been described as bambi, "that white guy with blue hair and the dog in the collar"[?]... no-one had actually asked what it was.   So I told him. It's 'My little pony.' And it's awesome.   I told him

Hmmm, let me think about that... .

3 blog posts in as many days... 2 in one day? WHAT SORCERY IS THIS!     [ATTACH=CONFIG]12669[/ATTACH] [Wow... that's smaller than I thought it'd be... Click to embiggen.]   Neg rep because you dislike Reddit?   Or you're one of THOSE 4channers who think Reddit is the cancer of the internet?   If a picture is worth a thousand words, a reaction image if worth at least 500 emotions.   Just because something is from reddit/tumblr/4chan/wherever doesn't make it intrinsically bad.   Also, get o

What a waste of time...

I can't believe I just spent over half an hour changing my desktop wallpaper...   I had the wallpaper on a USB... It just wouldn't display properly.   Set it to "tiled", works fine. "Center"... Still good.   Stretch? nope.   The colour borks and it becomes worthless.   This is what the wallpaper looks like, for those that are interested.   [NOTE - not the actual one that borked. This one borks differently.]   Seems, in my haste while saving it, I didn't save it properly.   It was a .bmp

The insanity of X [Part n of infinity]

X-13 > Start blogging   ~Be warned, the following may contain fragmented, meandering thought processes that may or may not make sense.~   1 day to go of work and I'm starting to drift into the random daydreams that make people believe I'm lazy...   I'm actually surprised it's started so late, though that may be because I've been focused on sorting out our sound and flash problems. [They're still not fully sorted out... mearly "close enough"]   X-13 > The subject. Change it.   So far,
