cyberangerwrst: fairly sure, near the interstate, thought I saw it in aug.13:28
wrstoh yeha i've been there several times :) but i'm not in cookeville right now13:29
cyberangerwell, that'sright for sleep, goes for meal time and type too13:29
cyberangerwhere are you then?13:29
wrsti work in monterey, live in livingston, but go to cookeville to do anything else13:30
cyberangerI've been planning out a makerspace/coderspace/hackerspace, working on shipping logistics (alaskan bush, not as dead simple as I'd wish)13:32
cyberangerand trying to come up with some ideas for #swissknife-router13:32
cyberangernot to metion, looking for work13:33
cyberangerwrst: so to sum up my answer, everything I can13:34
wrstcool cyberanger13:36
* cyberanger tries to recall where montery is13:37
wrsteast of cookeville in putnam county cyberanger13:38
cyberangerinterstate or federal route go through it13:39
* cyberanger is tring to recall a trip where I've been through there, odds are good that I have13:40
cyberangerrotten problem of being carless, the trips become rare, easy to forgeet13:41
wrstyou would have missed it if you had blinked13:44
cyberangerwrst: sounds like I've been that way, back in 2009 I'd bet13:44
wrstyeah i'm sure you have been not much worth having here :)13:45
cyberangerthe name sounds fimmilar (plus your statement on rual area) it'd been for rock climbing probally13:46
wrstthat coudl have been possible13:54
cyberangeridk, it's hard to say wrst, I'm the kinda person that'd go anywhere once, like rock climbing and rafting13:55
cyberangerrock climbing in that area is common13:56
cyberangerI know it wasn't skydiving........yet13:56
* cyberanger really want's to jump out of a perfectly good airborne plane13:57
wrstcyberanger: you are crazy!13:57
cyberangeryeah, but I'm your kind of crazy13:57
cyberangermany of my ideas are crazy, the question is are they crazy enough ;-)13:58
cyberangerwrst: who else is crazy enough to irc chat with 20kbps or less :-)14:02
* cyberanger is a crazy geek14:04
wrstha ha cyberanger14:07
wrsti will certainly pass on teh 20kbps or less :)14:07
Dan9186[MM]any suggestions on a firewall management app?15:31
cyberangerDan9186[MM]: for what firewall?15:39
Dan9186[MM]found what i was wanting actually, just couldn't remember the name of it15:41
Dan9186[MM]iptables15:41
cyberangerah, good ol' netfilter iptables combo, my choice too15:43
cyberangerwhen you said management app, though you possibly wanted a frontend for iptables or a cisco device15:46
Dan9186[MM]front end would be nice, mostly though i just look to yall for suggestions of any type because i learn somethin new every time15:49
Svpernova09iptables? /runs away in the other direction screaming15:50
cyberangerSvpernova09: what's the fear?15:50
Dan9186[MM]he doesn't like ubuntu :P15:51
Dan9186[MM]just throwin that out there15:51
Svpernova09lol15:51
* Dan9186[MM] runs away in fear15:51
Svpernova09I've had horrible experiences with iptables.15:51
Svpernova09Mainly my own lack of understanding / willing to fully understand the proper usage15:51
cyberangeriptables isn't ubuntu, it's any modern linux kernel15:52
Dan9186[MM]i.e. how do you bring a system to a screeming halt?15:52
Svpernova09And I've never been in a position where I've had to use it. I've always depended on hardware firewalls. Which is probably not ideal.15:52
cyberangerSvpernova09: knowing what your doing helps, what were you wishing todo15:52
Dan9186[MM]cyberanger: yeah knew that, was just lookin to throw some more grief his way15:53
Svpernova09oh, this was ages ago.15:53
Dan9186[MM]when you say that i envision dinosaurs...15:53
cyberangeridk, I use a hardware firewall myself, the firewall ran linux ;-)15:53
cyberangerhardware is favored, but the hardware's gotta run software to do it's job, to do it's job right, it must be secure too15:55
Svpernova09Here at work we use 2 Linksys RV082 routers. I've got some pretty awesome stuff happening with it's software.15:55
cyberangerif I recall, those are linux too15:58
Svpernova09I believe they are. I haven't done anything outside of the web management though. They're both in production use since the day we bought them.15:59
Svpernova09Any tinkering has to be done off hours.16:00
cyberangernaw, you can do it ;-)16:01
cyberangertinker the hell outta it16:01
cyberangermine are 24/7 I just get it right or revert back16:02
Svpernova09hehe16:05
cyberangerfailure is ok, the only wrong answer is never trying, and giving up16:14
cyberangerbut I try hard to get it right the first time16:16

wrstyeah netritious you have been a busy man lately19:52
netritioustrue but won't ever forget about the loco ;)19:53
wrstbut i'm glad business is good for you19:54
netritiousthanks wrst...been flooded with repairs for the past few months19:54
wrstthat's cool i enjoy doing some repairs albeit i'm not as skilled as you but I enjoy taking things apart19:55
netritiousjumping from desktop to desktop isn't conducive to holding an online conversation if you know what I mean19:55
netritiousWindows and ignorance unfortunately keeps me in business19:55
netritiousbut even that business is better than no business ;)19:56
netritiousand forgot to add storms...the storm season took out a few computers...ppl bring them to me to certify for their insurance companies19:57
pace_t_zuluwrst: another build of compiz...19:58

netritiousidk what it is about northern MS wrst, but something is up with the general wiring or maybe the utility company...19:58
wrstwow pace_t_zulu, sounds cool to me :)19:58
pace_t_zulunetritious: do you need a certification to certify those computers?19:59
wrstnetritious: i have that issue here at my work... but my house less than 20 miles away never an issue19:59
netritiouspace_t_zulu: I don't think so20:01
netritiousI got my A+ a decade ago though if it ever comes up20:02
pace_t_zulunetritious: so how does the insurance company know you are legit?20:02
pace_t_zulunetritious: so did i ... never needed it though20:02
netritiousI have no idea. They do call the shop according to my partner so maybe that's the only check they do...to verify you are brick and mortar20:03
netritiousthey pay so little though I don't think it's a great loss to them20:03
pace_t_zulunetritious: so you have a shop with a physical address ...20:03
netritiousof course..2136 W Stateline Rd Suite I Southaven MS 3863720:03

netritiousthat is a bad ass rifle20:16
netritious"range of roughly 2,300 feet"20:17
netritiousthat's almost half a mile20:18
wrstyeah and that whole being able to have it to explode above and just beyond the barrier is just bad20:19
netritiousI'm not into guns but I'm into high tech and that rifle definitely fits the bill20:19
netritiousmy wife on the other hand IS into guns...she got her carry permit renewed this year20:21
netritiousshe used to not be, but worked in a really bad part of town a while back (a company that finally moved to the other side of memphis long after everyone else had)20:22
netritiousso I talked her into going to Range Masters and taking the course, choosing a weapon, and getting her permit20:23
wrsti'm not a real gun person but i do like to go out and shoot some inanimate object from time to time20:27
netritiouswell after she got there and started shooting she fell in love lol...she practices down on some property in byhalia owned by my uncle20:29
netritiousI did a bit of deer and quail hunting with my dad when I was a kid using a good ole scatter gun and rifle, but I've never shot a pistol20:30
wrsti'm not a hunter really, i like farm raised food20:31
netritiousI got into bow hunting when I was a teenager, but haven't been hunting since I was 18-1920:31
