dmcgloneyou have to google it and download it, it's only in the server editions01:26
dmcgloneI think01:26
Unit193Don't have apache/lighthttpd01:27
* canthus13 has lighty. :)01:30
* dmcglone doesn't know what PHP topic to pick to write about01:31
Unit193You could start from the ground and go up01:31
canthus13How about explaining why it's so ugly? :)01:32
dmcglonetrue. that sux though, I want to show all the cool stuff that it can do, (not ugly stuff, like some guy suggests) ;-)01:32
canthus13It's like a sick hybrid of VB and bash script.01:33
dmcgloneI see someone here loves PHP :-) Oh do I feel the love in the room01:33
canthus13heh.01:34
dmcglonecanthus13: my script will kill your script ;-p01:34
dmcgloneLOL01:34
canthus13My script doesn't care.01:36
canthus13My script is hardcore emo, kills itself.01:38
dmcgloneOh yeah, my wife met someone today that claimed to be one of the ruby authors01:38
canthus13Were they japanese?01:38
dmcgloneno01:38
canthus13AFAIK, the ruby author(s) are japanese.01:38

dmcglonesue MarkDude01:47
Unit193What about the not nice ones?01:47
dmcglonesure I mean01:47
MarkDudeYou folks have given me some good advice in the past01:47
dmcgloneThats what we are here for01:47
dmcglone:-)01:47
MarkDudeUnit193,  I do like that I can swear in this channel if need be01:47
MarkDudeFuckin' a01:47
dmcgloneMarkDude: we can have that changed real quick01:48
MarkDudehttp://zareason.posterous.com/a-new-year-a-new-start-i-have-really-enjoyed  then  >> http://blogs.fedoraproject.org/wp/fifthpillar/  I am no longer CM at Zareason01:48
dmcglonewhat advise are you seeking?01:49
MarkDudedmcglone, as paultag put it to me - its ok in moderation01:49
* MarkDude is new to doing a press release on my job status01:49
* MarkDude is a 3rd generation construction worker/painter01:49
MarkDudeSo this being a public figure thing is new to me01:50
MarkDudeThe reason i am asking for input is that people keep asking questions01:50
dmcgloneI'm listening01:51
MarkDudeSo I had to do the 2nd post to head off more questions01:51
MarkDudeAnd I am still getting more questions01:51
dmcglonebut you still haven't got to the advise part01:52
MarkDudeSo it appears I need to do a 3rd post01:52
Unit193I don't know anything, but I don't think the questions will stop for a bit...01:52
MarkDudeMakes sense most of them01:53
MarkDudeI am just debating whether I need to do a 3rd post or just leave it as is01:53
dmcgloneI'd leave it as is01:53
MarkDudeAnd anything that needs to be answered can be answered in due time01:54
dmcgloneyou spoke your piece, if they can't accept it, Oh well.01:54
MarkDudeJust so folks know all is well Im just tempted to include a pic of me standing next to a few ZA folks01:54
MarkDudeAnd include in it something else as an aside01:54
* canthus13 would quit for being made to wear a penguin costume whilst riding public transportation.01:55
canthus13:)01:55
dmcgloneyou keep trying to prove yourself, they are gonna think your trying hard to cover something up01:55
MarkDudedmcglone, good point01:55
dmcgloneyour just gonna have to let it blow over and let folks realize "this is for real"01:56
dmcgloneI read your post and I believe you01:56
dmcglonewhats not to believe?01:56
MarkDudecanthus13, wearing it on BART was a dare by pleia2. I wear it for free it has magical powers - http://picasaweb.google.com/tuxwingsgroup/Halloween#553459573619820790601:57
Unit193People will think what they want to think...01:57
dmcgloneYou see, many folks like to try and find negative in everything. Thats something someone with your stature will have to endure as long as your in the public eye01:58
MarkDudeCool. You folks are making sense. I figured I had handled this decently. The feedback helps.01:58
dmcglonebut lets get something straight01:58
MarkDudeThe extra attention on my part was *exactly* to head off some of the negative folks01:58
dmcgloneBill Gates still sucks01:58
dmcglone:-001:58
MarkDudeAdvice from a few of my peers01:58
dmcglone>:o01:58
canthus13MarkDude: Heh. :)01:59
MarkDudedmcglone, that he does01:59
dmcgloneThere's always going to be 2 sides to everything01:59
canthus13at least 2.01:59
dmcglonepeople are going to see that you still have ties with ZA in the future, which I think you will forever now, so time is on your side02:00
MarkDudePeople are having a good time with the whole thing, I think Carl from System76 is sending me a shirt02:01
dmcgloneAnd your critics will see that and feel 2 foot tall02:01
dmcgloneMy advise, just let it roll02:02

Cheri703I'm bringing a tape recorder23:45
canthus13Just remember in ohio you can't record without their permission.23:45
Cheri703they suggested bringing husband, but I think it's because they think they can manipulate him and get him in a "blah blah, DON'T YOU THINK SO?" and try to get him on their side and/or use him as a distraction for me23:45
Cheri703so...nope23:45
canthus13Heh.23:46
canthus13I hear they're hiring 6 more part time people for tech support here...23:46
