<nuintari> | i never thought this would actually happen |
|
<nuintari> | I just had a customer ask if we used IP addresses |
|
<nuintari> | the ensuing discussion turned into him _demanding_ that we not make him use an IP address, because they made him vulnerable to attack |
|
<nuintari> | no amount of calm explaining was reaching him, so I start talking extremely sarcastically |
|
<rm-rf> | what would he like to use? |
|
<brad> | postal addresses! |
|
<brad> | maidenhead grid squares! |
|
<nuintari> | "no sir, you sir, if you choose not to use an IP address, what happens is, the data packets arrive to your computer on the backs of very small, hard working amoebas" |
|
<nuintari> | I disabled him from DHCP.... let him never get an address, and said, "but unfortunately, those little bastards have been on strike for years, your choices are IP address, or cancel service" |
|
<nuintari> | then I told him that this was by far and wide, the dumbest request I had ever heard |
