omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

I solved the weird clocking issue with the new audio interface at work! Woot!

(it has NOTHING to do with ANYTHING discussed in here, just.. it's technical, and was a headscratcher for all of us, and I found the solution, just PRIOR to calling tech support! And feeling accomplished.)

carry on. Nothing to see here.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Test data #1, tommy: When E and R become unshiftable (noticed both this time, no other letters), it's for both the right and the left shift keys. It happens so infrequently that swapping keyboards would be inconclusive (unless I could swap *right then* and that doesn't change the playing field too much), but next time I'll check the laptop keyboard too--I was just in a rush.

I just figured how to set-up my work e-mail on my iPhone. Easy peasy. Too easy. I shouldn't have done that.

It isn't like I hadn't been checking work e-mail through the phone before - just in a more clunky fashion. Ah, well.

If it's one of those leashes that lets you leave the fucking office, BRING IT ON.

I'm trying to convince them to put my mail on my third device, but for some reason that's a little much. Dammit! I want to be able to walk away as much as possible.

Yeah, had a big talk with student who DEMANDED part time office worker who does payroll should check his messages at home. Dude. He's part time. If he checks messages from home, then he will get more done, and not on company time, then we can't justify making him full time. And the kid is part time! Nope, student thought it was rude, and that everyone is connected now, and that he should check messages all the time. Um. Yeah, if he's part time, odds are, he can't afford internet access at home. Student went from undergrad to grad school. Probably has never had to pay for internet access at his home.

You're excluding phones from the definition of internet access, I'm assuming.

Is anyone here using UPNP?

I believe he has a standard 3-color cell phone only (as in, it's green, he pinks it up, and says "yellow")
