				    I imagine two dev colleagues sitting next to each other, on their phone, each feeling very secure in the anonymity of devrant. 11 11

				    I changed my Wi-Fi name to Syntax Error and made some changes to the configuration. I wanted to disable the admin page at the 2.4Ghz connection, but I got kicked out at 5Ghz as well. So I couldn't log in anymore and resetting the router didn't helped.
 
 So I called the ISP if they can restore it to factory settings, but the guy on the phone didn't understand a thing I said. He said to me: "Sir I don't exactly understand what u say, but I can see an Syntax Error. Do you want me to fix it." And I laughed and I laughed.. I told him that's the Wi-Fi name but ofcourse he didn't got the joke. I called again and got someone else on the phone. He's resetting the router in a one minute call.
 
 Had some fun this morning.10

				    "So what got you in to development and programming?"
 
 Me: well. I needed something to new to help with my depression, stress and anger.
 
 "Oh cool. Did it help?"
 
 Me: yes... They're so much stronger now.4

				    It's so good, to have a CEO who is an engineer and has coded in the past.
 
 As you might guess, this leads to rational requests and expectations.7

 The guy who showed me around gave me the weirdest look when I asked about the Internet speed cD

				    So, apparently upgrading the firmware of certain routers can make 60 Mbps connections drop down to 5. GG D-Link! Fuck you! I wish I could still use my Asus babe with this new fiber line. :(3

				    Oh my god... Storytime.
 
 A customer comes in with I assume is his father or grandfather.
 
 Customer: I need a computer, but without all the internals
 
 Me: So a case?
 
 Customer: Yes, I need a Dell computer outsides, but without the internal components.
 
 Me: Well, we don't have Dell cases, but we sell custom build cases and they come with a power supply.
 
 Customer: *says nothing, but looks interested*
 
 Me: *walks over to the cases to show him* So this is what the cases look like and we have two types, one for a ATX and one for a micro-ATX.
 
 Customer: *still says nothing, but looks at them*
 
 Me: What motherboard do you have at the moment?
 
 Customer: Well, I don't have anything right now, but I'm replacing another computer that didn't work very well. I'm going to be getting some Dell parts to put in here.
 
 Me: O-okay. So this other computer, I'd like to see it in shop to see what's going on with it.
 
 Customer: Oh, you do NOT want to do that. I hooked it up to another computer and it blew it up.
 
 Me: Huh, that's weird. I'd still like to look at it if possible.
 
 Customer: Oh no, it's all wired wrong and... *some bullshit, but stay with me*
 
 Customer: I am the best at technology. My hand has computer parts in it--government funded. *some more bullshit*
 
 Me: Okay... *I try to bring it back around* Well, I'd still like to see the other computer for myself. So you don't have parts for this new build yet, right? You don't know what type of motherboard you have?
 
 Customer: No.
 
 Me: Well, I would get the internals first, so you know what size of case to get, and then get the case.
 
 Customer: Okay. Thank you for your time.
 
 He shook my hand with his "cyborg" hand and I was tempted to say something about "try not to crush my hand," but elected not to. Also during this entire exchange, the old man continuously farted in the background.22
