| BiosElement | Awesome how many cyber attacks come from china | 02:17 |
|---|---|---|
| canthus13 | Not really surprising, though. | 02:22 |
| BiosElement | Suprising, no. Silly, yes. | 02:23 |
| canthus13 | Makes sense. china has the resources and the will to pull stunts like that.. Gotta wonder how many attacks they direect at estonia. | 02:24 |
| BiosElement | Heh, they attacked wp.com for heavens sake, I fail to see what good that does | 02:28 |
| BiosElement | Oracle Bad for Open Source: http://www.itjungle.com/tfh/tfh030711-story09.html | 02:46 |
| BiosElement | ^Breaking news: the sky is blue. | 02:46 |
| canthus13 | BiosElement: Practice. | 03:27 |
| canthus13 | BiosElement: wp.com is a big site, with heavy-duty hardware, but not a whole lot in the way of resources to fight back. | 03:28 |
| canthus13 | It makes a good tackling dummy. | 03:28 |
| BiosElement | Heh, perhaps. | 03:44 |

| BiosElement | Dude decides to store an admin flag clientside...then I find that even without that flag, any logged in user could edit accounts. | 05:10 |

| thafreak | Morning Ohio | 15:35 |
| thafreak | Anyone look much into media players? | 15:35 |
| thafreak | It seems like popcorn hour plays anything on my network or from attached media, even 1080p stuff in just about any format | 15:36 |
| thafreak | but doesn't support netflix or hulu or anything | 15:36 |
| thafreak | roku, et al, plays hulu and netflix in 1080, but no support for local media.... | 15:37 |
| thafreak | what gives...why won't some one make a little box that does both?!?! | 15:37 |
| thafreak | grrr...it's frustrating | 15:37 |
| thafreak | i guess you just have to buy 2 devices...sad | 15:38 |
| thafreak | I take that back, it seems there's a roku app that will stream your media over http... | 16:00 |
| thafreak | now the $59 roku seems very interesting! | 16:01 |
| thafreak | plays netflix, hulu (with subscription), and can potentially stream movies from local net... | 16:01 |
| Cheri703 | thafreak: my brother just got a roku, really likes it | 17:12 |
| _bbb | ps3 or wii imo | 18:35 |
| Cheri703 | my brother had a wii | 18:36 |
| Cheri703 | got rid of it in favor of roku | 18:36 |
| Cheri703 | (and wasn't playing it much) | 18:36 |
| _bbb | i know the feeling | 18:36 |
| * Cheri703 would be happy to have any of the above | 18:37 | |
| _bbb | best answer htpc | 18:39 |
| _bbb | but does netflix run on linux yet | 18:39 |
| Cheri703 | yeah, I have one :) it's just...slow and no netflix (though I won't subscribe until it can work on linux) | 18:39 |
| _bbb | i dual boot.. but i think i like the netflix interface on ps3 best | 18:40 |
| Cheri703 | _bbb: if you ever want to be able to headless-ly dual boot, let me know, there's an EASY way to do it | 18:41 |
| _bbb | go on | 18:41 |
| Cheri703 | grub-reboot | 18:43 |
| Cheri703 | figure out what position the alternate OS is in on the grub menu (starting from 0) | 18:43 |
| Cheri703 | you use grub-reboot X where x is that number | 18:43 |
| Cheri703 | I wrote a script for it, so I have a launcher to make it easy | 18:44 |
| _bbb | interesting | 18:44 |
| Cheri703 | it will boot the next time into that other os, then when rebooting, it'll go back to ubuntu | 18:44 |
| Cheri703 | or whatever default is | 18:44 |
| Cheri703 | one sec | 18:44 |
| _bbb | i just default to ubuntu with 10 sec timer in case i want windoze | 18:45 |
| Cheri703 | yeah, I wanted to be able to vnc in, but be able to get windows, so this solved that for me | 18:45 |
| Cheri703 | transcript from my user days session: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDays/01292011/Tips%20and%20tricks%20for%20multi-booters the stuff about this is toward the end, more in-depth explanation | 18:46 |
| Cheri703 | started around 16:20 | 18:46 |
| _bbb | yeah i can see where that would come in handy for remote | 18:47 |
| thafreak | well...we have a wii...but it's down stairs...and we mainly watch netflix on the xbox...but that requires a yearly fee..(damn microsoft) | 22:22 |
| thafreak | but, I kind of want to watch netflix upstairs sometimes...hence I was looking at the roku... | 22:23 |
| Cheri703 | my brother likes his | 22:23 |
| thafreak | but I found the WD unit | 22:23 |
| Cheri703 | he did something where he can set up custom channels | 22:23 |
| thafreak | which does netflix....and may support hulu plus soon, AND can play local media from samba share | 22:23 |
| thafreak | yeah I saw that you can write your own... | 22:24 |
| thafreak | I dunno...the other thing is it seems that roku currently only supports mp4 files with h264 video... | 22:24 |
| thafreak | if I'm going through the effort to rip my entire dvd collection, I kind of wanted to use a better container format like mkv | 22:25 |
| Cheri703 | I have no idea | 22:25 |
| thafreak | so I'm kind of leaning towards this WD unit | 22:25 |
