[05:41] <superfly> good, good
[05:42] <superfly> enjoying my uncapped
[05:48] <nlsthzn> nuvolari: Hey
[05:48] <nlsthzn> superfly: so what u dl?
[05:49] <superfly> nlsthzn: talks from the local LUG, for instance (the big ones... 1.5-2G)
[05:49] <superfly> http://www.archive.org/search.php?query=collection%3ACLUGtalks&sort=-publicdate
[05:50] <nlsthzn> wow... but why would they be so big?!
[05:50] <superfly> cause they're supposedly high quality ;-)
[05:52] <nlsthzn> video?
[06:12] <superfly> nlsthzn: yup
[06:13] <nlsthzn> superfly: makes sense then I guess :)
[06:32] <sakhi> moonin
[06:46] <superfly> yo sakhi
[10:09] <pascal`> hey
[10:14] <superfly> hi pascal`
[10:14] <pascal`> hey superfly 
[10:14] <pascal`> I've got a bit of a silly question
[10:15] <pascal`> Do you know what the syntax is to create an HTML hyperlink that will open a network location with Nautilus?
[10:15] <superfly> I don't use Gnome, I'm afraid
[10:16] <pascal`> well whatever
[10:16] <pascal`> I just need to open a network location from a hyperlink
[10:16] <pascal`> The file manager isn't important
[10:17] <superfly> well, the file manager is important, because it might put a hook into your browser to open special "protocols"
[10:17] <superfly> but to answer your question, there is no HTML hyperlink
[10:17] <pascal`> Well, specifying the smb protocal just does nothing for me
[10:17] <pascal`> i.e. I click the link and nothing happens
[10:18] <superfly> HTML hyperlinks support http, https, ftp, and a few other web-centric protocols
[10:18] <superfly> yes, smb will do nothing because it's not a web protocol, and your browser does not know how to handle it
[10:18] <pascal`> I'm administering a heterogeneous network, and just want to make it easy for everyone on the network to have quick access to a shared directory
[10:19] <pascal`> It should prompt you to select an application to use to open the URL though
[10:19] <superfly> nope, not if it doesn't understand the protocol
[10:20] <pascal`> Strange that it works on OSX and Windows then
[10:20] <superfly> pascal`: where and how? you still haven't told me what application you are using
[10:21] <pascal`> I'm using firefox on mac and ie on windows
[10:21] <superfly> and I'm not tell you it won't work, I'm telling you why it currently doesn't work
[10:21] <superfly> yeah, mac and windows probably have registered those protocol
[10:21] <superfly> s
[10:21] <pascal`> have a little test html page with a hyperlink on for each OS
[10:21] <pascal`> i'm trying to get a working hyperlink for ubuntu, but from what you've said, I don't think I'm going to be able to get it to work
[10:22] <superfly> just like you can register the apt: protocol in Firefox on Ubuntu to open your package manager 
[10:22] <pascal`> Yeah, I understand
[10:23] <superfly> pascal`: on KDE/Konqueror I know can use the smb protocol, but I don't know how to get Firefox to do that
[10:23] <pascal`> Thanks for your help
[10:23] <pascal`> yeah I remember that
[10:23] <superfly> I'm sure a bit of googling will uncover something
[10:24] <pascal`> What is "googling"?
[10:24] <pascal`> Yeah dude, I've looked around
[10:25] <pascal`> the protocol just isn't registered by default, and it'll be quicker for me to explain to the staff how to open the network location manually, than to explain how to register the protocol
[10:28] <pascal`> Maybe I can give them a link file or something
[10:44] <inetpro> pascal`: see http://locallink.mozdev.org/
[10:47] <pascal`> thanks inetpro 
[11:37] <Symmetria> gah
[11:37] <Symmetria> *annoyed*
[11:37] <Symmetria> how the hell do people afford to buy houses in capetown 
[11:37] <Symmetria> seriously
[11:37] <froztbyte> by sitting in debt for 20 years?
[11:38] <Symmetria> froztbyte heh, dude, I earn good money, and the pricing is so insane I couldnt come close to affording most of the decent places
[11:38] <Symmetria> you're looking at bond repayments of 20+ thousand a month 
[11:39] <froztbyte> yup, I know
[11:39] <froztbyte> I've looked before
[11:39] <Symmetria> and lol, when you're paying 20 grand a month in a bond repayment + paying off car + other expenses, its just not realistic
[11:39] <froztbyte> obviously you need to become part of silicon cape and spend your time getting paid 1.2mil/year to talk bullshit
[11:40] <froztbyte> (has anyone from that even done anything yet, or is it just a cashwank?)
[11:44] <bmg505> 20k for house, 10k for insurance, 20k for car, 50k for wife, 20k/kid that is more the budget :(
[11:46] <bmg505> a hooker 24 month contract would probably only cost about 5k/month
[12:01] <nuvolari> hi guys, what could the diff be (in practice) between 2 files where the hexcode differs only in the following: 
[12:01] <nuvolari> < 0000000 feca beba 0000 3100 2c00 000a 0005 0926
[12:01] <nuvolari> > 0000000 feca beba 0000 3200 2c00 000a 0005 0926
[12:03] <froztbyte> that's entirely dependant on what sort of file you're talking about
[12:05] <nuvolari> java class files
[12:06] <cocooncrash> nuvolari: Two bits.
[12:28] <bmg505> if its part of a string its a '1' that became a '2'
[12:32] <linuxboy> Symmetria: get a cheaper car :/
[12:39] <Symmetria> 20k for car bmg?!
[12:39] <Symmetria> wtf type of car are you driving that its costing 20k a month
[12:39] <Symmetria> my 335i only costs me 6.8 + 1600 a month for insurance 
[12:46] <bmg505> when you live in a R2mil house with a wife you gonna need R10kx2 one R10k for you and one R10k for her
[12:50] <bmg505> the 20k/kid includes their car payments
[12:50] <bmg505> breeding and settling down is quite expensive
[13:58] <linuxboy> Symmetria: what sort of houses are you looking at that you can't afford?
[13:59] <linuxboy> bmg505: you need to earn +- R60k for a 2 mil house
[14:00] <Symmetria> heh 60k gross probably wont cover you for a 2mil house unless you living cheap on anything else :P
[14:00] <Symmetria> (actually I know it wont)
[18:14] <fredre> hi all
[19:43] <Morganvd> hi everyone
[21:12] <inetpro> good evening
[21:47] <superfly> evening inetpro
