08:11 PM rue_mohr: /msg nickserv identify Tom_L tomesupersecretpassworddontpassitonok?
08:12 PM theBear: i just opened this/my client for the first time in maybe a fortnight and magically my "undernet appears to have been exploded off the face of the planet and i cannot find/see/contact it at ALL outside the index of their webpage !?!" issue of several months... *DISAPPEARED* <grin>
08:12 PM Tom_L: no, just settings in the gui
08:12 PM theBear: that's what i say about irc settings
08:13 PM rue_mohr: theBear, undernet go poof!?
08:13 PM Tom_L: theBear it's still there
08:13 PM theBear: also technically you should do more like /nickserv identify blah SECRET or /quote nickserv etc if yer client thinks /nickserv isn't a "real" command, cos during splits and uglies you can't accidentally send yer pass to a naughty-person that went /nick nickserv real quick
08:13 PM Tom_L: i just joined it to see
08:13 PM rue_mohr: does that work?
08:14 PM rue_mohr: I hope undernet didn't go poof, I need it for my bootleg MP3s
08:14 PM Tom_L: theBear it's still there
08:14 PM Tom_L: i just joined it to see
08:14 PM theBear: rue_mohr, seriously, i put time in (outta astound-ment not real concern) and probed it every which way... couldn't so much as telnet to ANY server at ANY listed port, not even from the "server" aka my-public-ip, even the web interface only loaded a very blank nothing page
08:14 PM rue_mohr: where else can I find toto and enya in the same place
08:15 PM theBear: Tom_L, yeah, i asked casper months ago and he said the same, but like i say, magically back today, huzzah <grin>

08:17 PM rue_mohr: I have some 0.7mm PMMA
08:17 PM rue_mohr: aparently, if I print a 0.8mm channel, it fits fine
08:17 PM orlock: so you have the bare glass?
08:18 PM orlock: its a sheath for the bare media, or for the coated cable?

08:27 PM zhanx: I was running all the cables and stuff when they called me hoping i had a console cable
08:32 PM rue_mohr: I need to warm up the roof, heat gun, or tiger torch?
08:41 PM anonnumberanon: Boring Company flamethrower could be helpful especially if you wasps... maybe expensive but it is good tech
08:48 PM vampirewings: you can go buy the same flamethrower at home depot
08:48 PM vampirewings: just not in a plastic housing shaped like a gun
09:06 PM orlock: Tessier-Ashpool wasps.
09:29 PM rue_mohr: managed to use the heatgun to get it
09:33 PM rue_mohr: I'll re-arrange it a bit, but I have the cable exit to the foor put in for my solar
