DarkwingDuckWhat I need to do is just build a good one.03:55
pleia2I'd like to get some professional head shots done too, but I keep saying "when going to the gym finally pays off an I am skinny again!" so that'll never happen :)03:56
DarkwingDucklol03:59
DarkwingDuckI'd settle for an actual job04:00
jtatumoh boy. i haven't gotten there yet. one of the modules i have was treating . as a special char04:00
jtatumso i omitted it.04:00
jtatumfigured there would be a simple string escape but no. have you seen how to put a literal backslash?04:00

pleia2ah :)05:29
ishimeruyeah, silly me copied a command and forgot to place my keyid05:35
ishimeruok here's a real question...regarding pgp05:36
ishimerutypically do you sign a key gathered online and just sign it as "trust marginally"?05:37
pleia2I don't sign any keys gathered online05:37
pleia2I have to meet the person and see their ID :)05:38
ishimeruthat's what i figured, just wanted to make sure05:38
pleia2every one has their preferences though05:39
pleia2I just had my gpg fingerprint printed on my new business cards, but it now occurs to me I should have gotten a new key (it's only a 1024 bit key)05:41
ishimeruah ok thank you05:43
ishimeruhehe05:43
ishimeruyeah i lost my first pair of keys in a truecrypt volume :\05:43

ishimeruyeah well...forgetting the password to the volume kinda sucks05:45
ishimeru:)05:45
pleia2usair treats flights to puerto rico as international05:58
