[03:15] <MarkDude> we had a troll come into #severedfifth
[03:16] <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.
[03:17] <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
[03:18] <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.
[03:19] <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"
[03:20] <akk> like you don't see "Yale-educated" or "Stanford-educated" let alone "Cal State East Bay-educated".
[03:20]  * MarkDude <<< Community college dropout
[03:21] <MarkDude> Ivy league is a great phrase that folks *slip in*
[03:23]  * 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
[03:29] <akk> Google has a reputation for being like that -- caring which school people went to.
[03:29]  * MarkDude has heard that also
[03:30]  * 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
[03:32] <akk> It's expensive, too, if you don't care that much about being there.
[03:33] <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.
[03:38] <MarkDude> Yep, I would have prolly partied my way out of school
[03:39] <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
[04:15] <MarkDude> http://zareason.posterous.com/panoramas-animated-gifs-from-the-tv-show-jono
[04:15] <MarkDude> panoramas from the 7Live show
[04:16] <MarkDude> and a couple of animated gifs
[04:17] <MarkDude> pleia2, the pic of Beth Lynn is pretty good in the audience. Some of the folks were going nuts
[04:19] <pleia2> haha, we are so excited :)
[04:22] <MarkDude> I know - Beth Lynn almost too much
[04:22] <MarkDude> Christian is doing the fist pump
[04:23] <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
[04:24] <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
[04:25] <MarkDude> I made some other gifs- one of Sunshine, and more of the crowd, but, i figured call it good
[04:26] <MarkDude> 3 are covered under fair use, much more - not so much

[17:08] <seidos> anyone have experience with favicons?
[17:11] <jledbetter> Making or including in the html?
[17:12] <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
[17:13] <jtatum> can do that, or can be linked using <link rel="shortcut icon">
[17:14] <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>?
[17:15] <seidos> and does it have to go in every page that is called?
[17:15] <seidos> in order to show up?
[17:16] <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
[17:17] <jledbetter> jtatum, You and your wikipedia
[18:24] <seidos> jtatum, actually, the wiki had the code i needed.  thanks.
[18:58] <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
