| MarkDude | we had a troll come into #severedfifth | 03:15 |
|---|---|---|
| MarkDude | Tried to insult Jono, by saying the university he went to was not very highly rated | 03:16 |
| MarkDude | Swearing about it and everything. | 03:16 |
| akk | That's a pretty lame way of insulting someone. | 03:17 |
| MarkDude | The general reaction was like, hmm, really- you went to a university? | 03:17 |
| MarkDude | ts cool dude | 03:17 |
| MarkDude | I know | 03:17 |
| MarkDude | especially considering what his job is, and he makes loud music | 03:17 |
| akk | I guess I could sort of see someone taunting an academic, like a theoretical physicist, with that (though it would still be lame). | 03:18 |
| * MarkDude realized it might have been damaging to say he studied all the time, played sports, and did not associate with scandalous women | 03:18 | |
| akk | For most of us, whether we graduated from a top-ranked school is so irrelevant. | 03:18 |
| MarkDude | akk well yes | 03:19 |
| MarkDude | jono is my friend, but academic, no. | 03:19 |
| MarkDude | that would ahve been a better insult | 03:19 |
| MarkDude | lol | 03:19 |
| akk | I was just reading an article in today's Slate about how the phrase "Harvard-educated" shows up massively more often in the press than "anywhere-else-educated" | 03:19 |
| akk | like you don't see "Yale-educated" or "Stanford-educated" let alone "Cal State East Bay-educated". | 03:20 |
| * MarkDude <<< Community college dropout | 03:20 | |
| MarkDude | Ivy league is a great phrase that folks *slip in* | 03:21 |
| * MarkDude actually dealt with a fair amount of academia at UCSC a while ago. People used to say, he wont talk to you unless you graduated from ***** talk to this person - they ignore parts of academia | 03:23 | |
| akk | Google has a reputation for being like that -- caring which school people went to. | 03:29 |
| * MarkDude has heard that also | 03:29 | |
| * MarkDude had an option to enter sideways to UCSC, and decided - that the main reason I would do it was for the paper, not the knowledge | 03:30 | |
| MarkDude | and that would take another more deserving persons spot | 03:30 |
| akk | It's expensive, too, if you don't care that much about being there. | 03:32 |
| akk | Though it seemed cheap at the time (I ended up at UCSC after leaving a more expensive school). | 03:33 |
| akk | Now CSU is more expensive than UC was then. | 03:33 |
| MarkDude | Yep, I would have prolly partied my way out of school | 03:38 |
| MarkDude | If you have a good enough idea, academia will help, just need to find the right person. Once i knew that, I was good | 03:39 |
| MarkDude | lol | 03:39 |
| MarkDude | http://zareason.posterous.com/panoramas-animated-gifs-from-the-tv-show-jono | 04:15 |
| MarkDude | panoramas from the 7Live show | 04:15 |
| MarkDude | and a couple of animated gifs | 04:16 |
| MarkDude | pleia2, the pic of Beth Lynn is pretty good in the audience. Some of the folks were going nuts | 04:17 |
| pleia2 | haha, we are so excited :) | 04:19 |
| MarkDude | I know - Beth Lynn almost too much | 04:22 |
| MarkDude | Christian is doing the fist pump | 04:22 |
| MarkDude | Teh teacher next to Beth Lynn looks like he is at a revival | 04:23 |
| pleia2 | lol | 04:23 |
| pleia2 | no wonder they asked if we'd been drinking | 04:23 |
| MarkDude | I have seen the light, and it cam from a Penguin | 04:23 |
| MarkDude | I know | 04:24 |
| MarkDude | That and it was hella dudes | 04:24 |
| MarkDude | I think one or two were drinking | 04:24 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 04:24 |
| MarkDude | I made some other gifs- one of Sunshine, and more of the crowd, but, i figured call it good | 04:25 |
| MarkDude | 3 are covered under fair use, much more - not so much | 04:26 |

| seidos | anyone have experience with favicons? | 17:08 |
| jledbetter | Making or including in the html? | 17:11 |
| seidos | including in the html | 17:12 |
| seidos | so html is necessary? | 17:12 |
| seidos | i thought just put it in root folder of site and done | 17:12 |
| jtatum | can do that, or can be linked using <link rel="shortcut icon"> | 17:13 |
| seidos | ah, that's the thing. i got the favicon.ico file in root, but it doesn't work right. | 17:14 |
| seidos | i don't get the link syntax. | 17:14 |
| jledbetter | I link to it | 17:14 |
| seidos | <link rel = $path>? | 17:14 |
| seidos | and does it have to go in every page that is called? | 17:15 |
| seidos | in order to show up? | 17:15 |
| jtatum | link overrides favicon.ico | 17:16 |
| jtatum | wikipedia article is good if you haven't seen it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Favicon | 17:16 |
| jtatum | especially note the browser support section | 17:16 |
| seidos | right-o | 17:16 |
| seidos | back to the grind | 17:16 |
| jledbetter | jtatum, You and your wikipedia | 17:17 |
| seidos | jtatum, actually, the wiki had the code i needed. thanks. | 18:24 |
| Scunizi | seidos: I've found if there is a directory for a theme then the favicon has to go in there (active theme) .. look for the current favicon | 18:58 |
