Re: The Official Rant Thread
I can't figure out whats wrong in the maps Mutation builds. It's something meta related. But I can't seem to find it. The only thing I can think of is the sbsp and ltmp tags as they have some special padding. But I can't get seem to get any of the H2Cores with source to compile a working map so I can't test if the padding is actually needed 

Don't snort the magic, we need it for the network.

Re: The Official Rant Thread
every shred of respect I had for my boss is now gone...
two weeks ago, Tuesday, he asked me to cover someone else's shift for the next day, when the next day, Wednesday, is a day that I am not supposed to be scheduled.
So, when I said could not cover said employee's shift he was slightly upset..but other than that I didn't think anything of it..there were plenty of other employees...and if all else.. there would be one less to work that day.. been in that position before.
Same week, Saturday, when I looked at my schedule for the next week, my boss had only scheduled me 8 hours for the week, whereas I usually get 25-35 hours..
I wasn't sure why, neither were any of the managers I asked.
Monday, one of two days I worked that week, one of the managers, the one I am most familiar with...he got me my job in the first place. told me the reason I was only scheduled 8 hours, for the fact that I couldn't cover the other employee's shift. and he also told me that it was supposed to stay between him and I, I know realize why.
and he then told me that I might want to talk to my boss...
after finding that out..I gave the manager my 2 week notice............
Thursday, the last day that week I worked, everyone knew I had turned in my 2 week notice etc. no one knew why, so when some people asked why I had done so, I told them I couldn't tell them why because the manager had asked me not to, I did respect him.. but that it had to do with me being scheduled 8 hours..
so, today, Saturday, when I called to ask what days I was scheduled for next week, the schedule was put up Friday, so I couldn't have done so an any day that I worked.
the manager that checked for me....didn't see my name on the schedule, and told me so... and that he didn't know what was going on.
at this point, I'm not sure if I quit, or if I was fired.
what I do know is that my boss didn't have the balls to tell me to my face, or at all for that matter, that he was firing me. evidently he didn't like that I turned in my 2 week notice, but not just that, he didn't have the balls to tell any of the management either
as stated in the beginning ... every shred of respect I had for him...gone.
/end rant

I temporarily solved it by drilling a hole in the bottom were the buttons electrical contacts were and left-clicked using the tip of a screw driver.

Re: The Official Rant Thread
enough time to unplug a monitor or two form backup so you can have enough time to shutdown..
on a side note;
My Rant:
fucking dentist office nurses left blisters in my mouth from something..don't know what..might have been the cotton swabs to numb before the actual numbing syringe was administered.
Jaw hurts like a bitch once numbing wore off...everywhere the needle went in...
got another appointment tomorrow morning..I'll be up earlier than I have in six weeks..
-.-

Re: The Official Rant Thread
I got a UPS but it has no battery, at first I was thinking of using a car battery, as it is the same voltage and it would just take longer to charge but then I remembered that they release Hydrogen, so after a while my room would fill up with it and when something makes a spark...
What 12v battery could I use... any ideas?

My mom got herself a puppy a few days ago and already it's smarter than my other dog.
She can get out of her cage at ten weeks old.

I need to replace my bed. The mattress has a large "dent" in the middle, 1/3 of the frame springs are broken and the rest are slightly worn out.
