| Unit193 | Is there some way to basically have cat monitor a file then show when more has been appended? | 00:35 |
|---|---|---|
| Unit193 | (or nano, less, more, etc) | 00:36 |
| canthus13 | tail | 00:38 |
| Unit193 | logtail? | 00:45 |
| canthus13 | just tail | 00:47 |
| canthus13 | man tail | 00:47 |
| canthus13 | tail -f, I think. | 00:49 |
| Unit193 | That did it! yep tail -f | 00:49 |
| Unit193 | Now if only I can get it to notify screen... | 00:51 |
| canthus13 | Might be able to pipe it to notifications.. Not sure how it would notify within screen. I'd just keep it running in a separate screen window. | 00:53 |
| Unit193 | I'm running it in a screen window, I'm just looking for the "Bell in window 6" | 00:54 |
| canthus13 | Unit193: check 10.6 http://sunsite.ualberta.ca/Documentation/Gnu/screen-3.9.4/html_chapter/screen_10.html | 01:41 |

| BiosElement | ^Two really important articles for anyone who actually cares about internet freedom | 02:31 |
| === Unit1931 is now known as Unit193P | ||
| canthus13 | BiosElement: The Comcast/NBC merger that was approved today is way bigger than either of those. | 02:42 |
| BiosElement | canthus13: Eh not from what I've seen | 02:43 |
| canthus13 | BiosElement: Ok. Think of it this way. Comcast now controls a large amount of desirable content. They can't suddenly shut off access to NBC properties to everyone but comcast customers, but they can start shifting the prime stuff to comcast-only over a period of a few years... | 02:45 |
| canthus13 | Comcast is focused hard on controlling media. period. | 02:45 |
| BiosElement | NBC is desirable? OoooK then | 02:46 |
| canthus13 | BiosElement: NBC owns a lot of content. | 02:46 |
| BiosElement | I can't think of a single TV-news-anything that is worth a damn | 02:46 |
| canthus13 | BiosElement: *shrug* You're not most media consumers, either. | 02:47 |
| BiosElement | True, I look for real articles, not 'omg wth' attention getting headlines. | 02:47 |
| canthus13 | Heh | 02:47 |
| BiosElement | Which is why I ignore Ars Technica now too which is a shame, they used to be good | 02:47 |
| canthus13 | we're fast approaching a single source of content. | 02:47 |
| BiosElement | Eh that's so overhyped. | 02:48 |
| canthus13 | you have ABC/Disney/ESPN, Comcast/NBC/Viacom (I think comcast got viacom a while back, didn't they), MTV, and a few other small providers. | 02:48 |
| canthus13 | 15 years ago, there were dozens. | 02:48 |
| BiosElement | I say as someone who doesn't watch cable. >.> | 02:49 |
| BiosElement | Who cares, it's changing times | 02:49 |
| BiosElement | The real 'channels' are now billions of websites. | 02:49 |
| canthus13 | Not if comcast has their way. | 02:49 |
| BiosElement | That's the only battle we need to fight in the end | 02:49 |
| BiosElement | Cable is dying, I don't give a damn. They're having to face the fact that people will no longer be just sheep. | 02:49 |
| canthus13 | Comcast owns those connections. as soon as they can, they'll shut them off. AT&T is working on the same. | 02:49 |
| canthus13 | Cable isn't, though. it's just changing. | 02:49 |
| BiosElement | Now you're just hyping it. | 02:49 |
| BiosElement | >.> | 02:49 |
| BiosElement | Comcast tried that | 02:50 |
| canthus13 | Nope. I'm right in the middle of it. | 02:50 |
| BiosElement | They got screwed over | 02:50 |
| canthus13 | It's not stopping them. | 02:50 |
| canthus13 | they just need to consolidate a little more power. | 02:50 |
| canthus13 | Hence the NBC merger. | 02:50 |
| canthus13 | Hopefully the FTC doesn't approve any more mergers of that scale.. Like say.. Comcast/Disney. | 02:51 |
| BiosElement | You're not going to convince me on that, I really don't care what cable does. The internet is the future and we're seeing the battle lines drawn as such. | 02:51 |
| canthus13 | Cable isn't just cable anymore. Comcast owns a huge amount of critical trunk lines in the US. | 02:52 |
| canthus13 | TWC is working on the same. | 02:52 |
| BiosElement | Exactly | 02:52 |
| BiosElement | It's kinda pathetic when China is more progressive then the US and UK combined | 02:52 |
| canthus13 | Comcast (And other cable companies) aren't focused so much on TV except as a means to an end. There's not much profit cable TV anymore. It's a value-added service for internet and phone service. | 02:53 |
| canthus13 | and phone service (land lines) is fast going the way of the dodo, at least as far as residential service is concerned. | 02:54 |
| BiosElement | Yep | 02:55 |
| Unit193 | Talking about Calvin and Hobbes "I don't actually read that one but I've heard good things." | 04:01 |
| Unit193 | That just isn't right.... | 04:01 |
| canthus13 | witeshark: huh? | 04:06 |

| deejoe | canthus13: are you a moon landing skeptic, too, or did you not read the last entry? | 16:39 |
| Cheri703 | SWEET FREEDOM! | 16:41 |

| canthus13 | deejoe: I didn't bother to read it. Moon skeptics are idiots. :) | 16:43 |
| deejoe | canthus13: then you'll not have noticed that it's a parody | 16:44 |
| canthus13 | deejoe: Prolly not. :) | 16:44 |
| * canthus13 goes and watches the clip of buzz aldrin punching the skeptic for kicks. | 16:44 | |
