jdongFlannel: it's a new compression scheme. I believe you need the Inverse Deleted Consonants Transform (iDCT) to decode the words....04:38
jdongwow these signal processing classes have corrupted me.04:39
FlannelAh.04:39
FlannelDon't be silly.04:39
mneptokplease tell me the acronym is pronounced "I dicked"04:39
mneptok"iDCT around with that a bit."04:40
Flannelmneptok: I suppose it could be, but that wasn't the point.  It was a play on the real IDCT, Inverse Discrete Cosine Transform.04:40
FlannelBut, that does fit will indeed.04:40

alphakamp_Zeus_ in #ubuntu has an attitude problem.  He is very helful but at the same time very patronizing, he gives Ubuntu and linux a bad name. And does not prompt a community atmosphere for #ubuntu21:46
alphakamppromote*21:46
PriceChildHe seems to have been quiet for an hour?21:47
alphakampYes this conversation was about an hr ago21:49
alphakampI dont expect a result, I wanted to make the comment known.  I really question Ubuntu's community now21:51
ompaul<alphakamp> _Zeus_: Well thats good to know, we never did have to reboot to find that out, and if we had we wouldnt have solved anything21:51
ompaul<alphakamp> _Zeus_: People would find this channel alot more useful if people like your werent such jack_Ss, Thanks for you help to this point though21:51
ompaulalphakamp, it takes two to tango, he offered help you didn't want the help he offered, so you baited him further, nothing to see here move along21:52
ompaulalphakamp, anything else?21:53
alphakampHonestly, have you seen the rest of the conversation21:53
ompaulyes21:53
ompaulyou said you were running a production server21:53
ompauland were running ff on it21:53
alphakampI said what if21:53
ompaulnot a good call21:53
ompaulit matters not21:54
alphakampThat is my point it does, he doesnt know that prior to that point21:54
ompaulyou approach a person21:54
ompaulyou ask21:54
ompaulyou get an answer21:54
ompaulyou don't like the answer and suggest the person leave the channel21:54
ompaulif you want paid support and a different answer you can if you so wish pay for it21:55
ompaulif you want help in the channel you have to accept people may not do things the way you will21:55
ompaulso -- is there anything else?21:56
alphakampThe point im making is the guy shouldnt assume that I am a complete idiot.21:56
ompaul<alphakamp> _Zeus_: Thats not what forums said, but I'll go with that, then the reason firefox wont let me download anything is because ram is full...21:56
ompaulso you bait the person21:56
ompaulthere is more than one way to do most things21:56
ompaulyour call21:56
ompaulif you don't like the forum21:56
ompaulthat you choose21:57
ompaulthen you have choices21:57
ompaulif the forum had worked21:57
ompaulthen --- you would not have asked in IRC I think21:57
alphakampThe last comment should have read because /tmp is full but thats beside the point now21:58
alphakampI do have choice, choice is Ubuntu'21:58
alphakamppriorities are lost in the mess21:58
