| lostConnection | hello | 00:20 |
|---|---|---|
| Cheri703 | hey | 00:20 |
| lostConnection | how's it going? | 00:21 |
| Cheri703 | pretty decently | 00:23 |
| Cheri703 | brb though | 00:23 |
| canthus13 | Well... The NIC on my server died. :( | 03:58 |
| canthus13 | Fortunately I had a spare. | 03:59 |
| Cheri703 | :( and :) | 04:00 |
| canthus13 | Heh. | 04:03 |
| Cheri703 | so I fixed that zune and now I'm converting video from vhs to digital | 04:04 |
| canthus13 | Eek. | 04:06 |
| * canthus13 has an Osprey 210 card that he's gonna use to convert Hi8 to digital. | 04:06 | |
| canthus13 | Dunno about ripping VHS.... | 04:06 |
| Cheri703 | I'm using my old tv tuner card to do hi8 to digital (vhs will actually be in a week or so) | 04:07 |
| canthus13 | The Osprey is a really nice card... I got it in a machine I paid 125 bucks for on ebay... The card by itself runs around $200. | 04:07 |
| Cheri703 | dang, very nice | 04:08 |
| canthus13 | Low-end professional stuff. | 04:08 |
| Cheri703 | mine is a crapper that a friend gave me a few years back | 04:08 |
| canthus13 | Heh. | 04:08 |
| Cheri703 | canthus13: if you have the rca -> whatever cords you need, you can just hook a vcr to it for vhs | 04:08 |
| Cheri703 | that's what I'm going to do | 04:08 |
| Cheri703 | it'll be quick and dirty | 04:08 |
| Cheri703 | and inexpensive | 04:08 |
| * canthus13 got the breakout cable for his card, so he has the various inputs... including S-video. :) | 04:09 | |
| Cheri703 | nice | 04:09 |
| Cheri703 | *sigh* I'd love to have a SUPER AWESOME MEGA computer that had all of the goodies and bells and whistles...but...NOT HAPPENING for a LOOOOOONG time | 04:10 |
| canthus13 | Heh. so would i. | 04:11 |
| * canthus13 just found a Radeon 9250 that he has NO idea where it came from... | 04:11 | |
| Cheri703 | nice | 04:11 |
| canthus13 | I'm wondering if it'll perform better than a Geforce 5200. | 04:12 |
| canthus13 | Ooo. Just found a side-by-side review of the two. :) | 04:12 |
| Cheri703 | heh | 04:13 |
| Cheri703 | do either have an s-video out? | 04:13 |
| Cheri703 | if so, and it works under 10.10, I'll take your cast off ;) | 04:13 |
| canthus13 | Yep. | 04:14 |
| canthus13 | both do. | 04:14 |
| * Cheri703 is canthus13 's bestest best blarghing friend ;) | 04:14 | |
| canthus13 | :) | 04:14 |
| Cheri703 | :D | 04:14 |
| Cheri703 | I'm mostly kidding about you sending it to me :) | 04:14 |
| canthus13 | You can have the radeon. I've got an ingrained aversion to ATi. Apparently it's unfounded now, but I've avoided them for years. | 04:15 |
| Cheri703 | and it works in 10.10? the s-video out? I have a 9200 and it COMPLETELY QUITS in 10.10 | 04:15 |
| Cheri703 | works perfectly in 10.04 | 04:15 |
| canthus13 | I have no idea. | 04:15 |
| Cheri703 | can't upgrade desktop because of it :/ | 04:15 |
| canthus13 | I just found it in a box. | 04:15 |
| Cheri703 | mind trying it out? | 04:16 |
| Cheri703 | maaaybe | 04:16 |
| Cheri703 | not that I'd turn down a free video card really | 04:16 |
| canthus13 | Apparently it runs well in maverick. | 04:16 |
| Cheri703 | ok, cool | 04:16 |
| canthus13 | Just doesn't seem to like unity. | 04:17 |
| * Cheri703 would be happy to take it off your hands :) | 04:17 | |
| Cheri703 | psh, neither do I | 04:17 |
| Cheri703 | we'll be good friends ;) | 04:17 |
| canthus13 | Ok. At some point I'll get it to you along with the copies of SBS 2003 that I found. | 04:17 |
| canthus13 | (And 5 CALs!) | 04:17 |
| Cheri703 | heh | 04:17 |
| Cheri703 | this video camera that I'm having to use is crap, it keeps cutting out -_- | 04:18 |
| canthus13 | :( | 04:18 |
| Cheri703 | I got an hour into this one and it freaked out | 04:18 |
| * canthus13 picked up a decent sony handycam for 80 bucks. | 04:18 | |
| Cheri703 | I'm going to see how much a hi8 -> vhs adapter might cost | 04:18 |
| * Cheri703 doesn't have $80 | 04:18 | |
| canthus13 | Not sure if there IS a hi8-vhs adapter... I think hi8 is incompatible with vhs. | 04:18 |
| Cheri703 | ah, there isn't :( | 04:19 |
| Cheri703 | this is freaking annoying | 04:19 |
| Cheri703 | $50 or so would buy one | 04:23 |
| Cheri703 | which is about what I'll make on the project -_- | 04:24 |
| Cheri703 | might ask her to ask her family members if anyone else has a camera | 04:24 |
| Cheri703 | the battery I took out of the zune was puffy | 04:41 |

| Cheri703 | I'm kind of tired, kind of not, but should sleep, but don't want to >.< | 07:17 |

| thafreak | hello ohio | 19:30 |
| thafreak | anyone want to chime in on 2tb hard drive recomendations? | 19:30 |
| thafreak | Was about to pull the trigger on the WD greens...but there is just too much talk of failure and DOA | 19:31 |
| Unit193 | One that doesn't cost an arm and a leg! | 19:31 |
| canthus13 | thafreak: WD has a really nice replacement policy, though... | 19:37 |
| djoe | yeah, like anyone really ever wants to replace an HD | 19:39 |
| djoe | I guess if you have absolutely no data on it that you care about, ever, sending it off doesn't raise any concerns | 19:39 |
| canthus13 | djoe: I did it with a DOA a couple of weeks ago. Cross-shipped it, even. | 19:41 |
| canthus13 | Newegg's policy sucks. | 19:41 |
| djoe | clearly one's mileage may vary | 19:41 |
| canthus13 | woulda cost me almost 15 bucks to ship the drive back using their UPS 'discount'. WD's was 6 bucks. | 19:41 |
| canthus13 | Newegg also doesn't have a crosshipment option. | 19:42 |
| djoe | I have a 1TB Seagate that started its death throes a week and a half ago or so | 19:42 |
| djoe | no way that's going anywhere but a shredder | 19:43 |
| djoe | because a) if the drive is flaky, how certain can one be that it is being wiped sufficiently and b) it's not my data on there | 19:43 |
| djoe | I suppose I might take it apart for all the shiny stuff inside | 19:44 |
| djoe | and then trash the platters myself | 19:44 |
| thafreak | anyone hear anything bad about samsung spinpoint f4's? | 19:57 |
| thafreak | The reviews all seem to say they're faster than the WD greens, and the % of DOA complaints on newegg seems much lower... | 19:58 |
| thafreak | plus microcenter up in cleveland has them for the same price as newegg...so I could drive and get them IRL today...I <3 not waiting | 19:58 |
| thafreak | but don't want to waste my time if they are teh suck or something | 19:59 |
| djoe | all $HARDWARE sucks | 19:59 |
| thafreak | true, very true....especially hard drives | 19:59 |
| djoe | which is a companion law to "all $SOFTWARE sucks" | 19:59 |
| thafreak | it's just such a hassle to replace them...I want to try to lessen the chances of me screaming profanitiy in my basement | 20:00 |
| thafreak | my wife hates it when I work on hardware... | 20:00 |
| djoe | heh | 20:01 |
| djoe | I had a laptop and a desktop at home both go bad last month | 20:01 |
| djoe | there was much hardware-replacement grumbling and cursing and grumping around to be had | 20:01 |
| thafreak | i bet | 20:04 |
| thafreak | only stuff I can dig up on google for the samsung f4 are reports of buggy firmware, which there is already a patch/update for | 20:08 |
| thafreak | well...looks like I'm gonna try out the samsungs afterall...wish me luck | 21:20 |
| Unit193 | Good luck and happy upgrading | 21:28 |
| Unit193 | Is this an extra or do you plan to clone one over? | 21:28 |
| paultag | Vetinari: where the christ is lukjad? | 23:17 |
| paultag | Oh wrong room | 23:19 |
| paultag | anywho | 23:20 |
| paultag | hey Ohio :) | 23:20 |
| Cheri703 | hi | 23:20 |
| paultag | Cheri703: s'new? | 23:20 |
| Cheri703 | not a ton, I'm killing an hour waiting for a meeting to start.... | 23:20 |
| paultag | Cheri703: mmm :/ | 23:20 |
| Cheri703 | have to either walk home or bum a ride...should be interesting | 23:20 |
| paultag | Cheri703: :( | 23:20 |
| Cheri703 | yeah, the joys of being car-free on a rainy day when you want to participate in things after bus hours | 23:20 |
| paultag | :( | 23:21 |
| Cheri703 | I think I should be able to get a ride home. this is my first time here, but I've talked to a few of the people in the past | 23:21 |
| Cheri703 | I wanted to go january and february, but january it was the night we found out my dog had a mass in his stomach, and february it was the day I had to drive up to my parents' house to have him put to sleep -_- | 23:22 |
| Cheri703 | so this is the first time I've been able to come, even though I'd been saying I was going to :/ | 23:22 |
