I've resorted to installing Linux on the machine, turning it effectively into a dual-boot, so that Windows can start.

<@Alek>
what's an alt-code hard space?
19:46
<&Derakon>
Um, &nbsp;?
19:53
<@Alek>
not html code.
19:53
<@Alek>
but thanks, anyway.
19:54
<&ToxicFrog>
Hrm
19:54
<&ToxicFrog>
Space is 0x20
19:54
<@Azash>
http://www.asciitable.com/
19:55
<&ToxicFrog>
So that would be alt+040, yes?
20:10
<&McMartin>
unlikely
20:10
<&McMartin>
probably alt+032
20:13
<@Azash>
032 it is
20:14
<@Azash>
Slightly misleading with the leading zero
20:14
<&McMartin>
That should be a normal space though
20:14
<&McMartin>
There's a Unicode nonbreaking space IIRC but it's in a distant codepage

XD
20:19
<@Alek>
the leading zero can have a completely different effect.

20:19
<@Alek>
alt-3 and alt-003 are I think different characters, for example.
20:19
<@celticminstrel>
I didn't think alt-3 did anything.
20:20
<@Alek>
not here... but in a browser, it's a heart sign.

20:21
<@celticminstrel>
That's probably just the browser doing strange things...
20:21
<@celticminstrel>
I thought alt-0 was what signalled that you're about to enter a character code.
20:23
<&ToxicFrog>
Wait, I thought alt-codes were octal?
20:25
<@froztbyte>

20:25
<@celticminstrel>
Nope.
20:25
<@celticminstrel>
They're decimal.

< ErikMesoy>
The points about people not necessarily having free time, and if they have free time, not wanting to convert it into working-on-CV-accomplishment time, are good.
22:16
<@Tarinaky>
Particularly that it favours those already in good jobs. Since they're the ones most likely to have free time.
22:17
<@Tarinaky>
Because of how housing prices work.
22:18
<@Tarinaky>
Idly, I'd mention this in #dnd, but I don't want Scyld to see it. Running Tomb of Horrors as part of a campaign - how much of a dick move is the cursed gem of wish?
22:18
<@Tamber>
Somewhere between "funny" and "hilarious"
22:18
<@Tarinaky>
I think the Party plan on selling it for magic items and making it Someone Elses Problem.
22:19
<@Tarinaky>
Which I'm not sure is much better.
22:20
<@Tarinaky>
(Although they won't get market value for it because Magic Mart doesn't exist - sales of major magic items are only in terms of barter, futures and securities)

22:25 * TheWatcher stabs Google

<@TheWatcher>
"If successful, this method returns a response body with the following structure:"
22:25
<@TheWatcher>
Great, wonderful!
22:25
<@TheWatcher>
What does it return if it isn't successful?!
22:26
<@Tamber>
It's Google. It never fails(!)
22:27
<@TheWatcher>
I should not be sat here trying completely bogus values just to see what fucking happens.

too bad I don't know shit :U

Dazzle them with a multipage ornate CV printed on yellow paper containing nerd culture references!

AnnoDomini: my CV is three full pages and typeset in TeX
22:37

and it is basically nothing :U

Mine is one page, and it basically goes, "Hire me, or I will murder everyone you love while you watch, then drown you in their blood."
23:45
<&ToxicFrog>
I keep meaning to LaTeXify mine
23:47
< JustBob>
I should use LaTeX, but I have yet to find a /reason/ to convert to it.
23:50 * McMartin pokes a bit more at his C64 stuff, gets mid-character split-screen effects working
23:51
<&ToxicFrog>
Personally, I converted to it when I was collaborating with someone on some documentation and we realized we had both wasted entirely too many hours of our lives trying to get MS Office and OpenOffice to not be complete shambling fuckups
23:51
<&ToxicFrog>
Even before the additional headache that any kind of collaboration is using them
23:52
<&ToxicFrog>
I have stuck with it because now that I know it it is way the fuck faster than using a word processor or slideshow program and the results look better, too.
