[00:43] lucid? upgrade to natty [00:46] heh, yea. I know. I'm all behind the times [00:46] but not setting up a server to natty, I kind of like the 5yr plan [02:41] re: UPSes, yeah, my power problems were because I have old wiring coming to the house [02:41] and the contacts were really old. [05:08] g'night [12:49] 12min until the awesome greg-g interview goes live [12:57] how long is it? [12:58] about 45min I think [12:58] just finished listening myself [12:59] 46.23 [13:03] http://lococast.net/archives/475 [13:05] appreciate any RT <3 http://twitter.com/#!/mitechie/status/57413806107799552 [13:34] I really wish journalists/editors would use an ounce of sense before writing headlines... [13:34] "Speed possible factor in deadly motorcycle crash" [13:34] No, it's a definite factor. I've never heard of a stationary motorcycle crashing. [13:50] Good morning [13:50] party [13:51] Actually, the interview is 57:45 (with bumpers) [13:51] so, around 56 minutes in total [13:52] rick_h_: if you want RT love, you gotta leave us 14 unused characters :P [13:52] wolfger: No, it's a possibility [13:52] otherwise i am forced to mangle your messge [13:53] brousch: hmm, only if you do old style RT [13:53] if you just use the normal RT it does it without touching the message [13:53] whatever hootsuite does [13:53] e.g. from the twitter website or whatever [13:53] wolfger: the motorcycle might have crashed into a tree while on the back of a trailer. ;) [13:53] sorry hootsuite does it wrong and sucks [13:53] snap-l: at which point, speed is still a factor. :-) [13:55] ah, i think found a setting for new style [13:56] there you go, ty sir [13:58] that's better [14:01] Sent out a tweet / dent as well [14:02] i would dent, but i think my only followers on there are people already in this channel [14:02] d00d, should put it up on diaspora [14:03] Yeah, that's a highly effective echo chamber. [14:06] ROFL [14:06] It's an echo-y chamber alright [14:07] ones of people will see my message there [14:07] The Japanese have a word for "cell phone decorated with beads".... [14:08] bedazzle? [14:09] rick_h_: isn't that for clothes? [14:09] or has it branched out since middle school? [14:10] has it branched out??? [14:11] i'm just glad i had a boy so i don't have to deal with it [14:11] * wolfger tell brousch *not* to Google "vajazzled", since he's obviously lived a sheltered life [14:12] my ignorance stems from my lack of pcon attendance [14:14] well I hope you rectify that some day [14:18] snap-l: looks like I'm missing a lot of stuff: http://linuxoutlaws.com/podcast/200 [14:19] geez [14:31] rick_h_: That's someone who does studio recordings for a living. :) [14:31] Or at least more than just a hobby. [14:32] But yeah, golf. ;) [14:33] naw, all that berringer stuff, yuck [14:33] I do however take issue with their show notes [14:33] and honestly, never been impressed with their sound [14:33] I don't think anyone can listen to The Linux Link Tech Show [14:33] though good to know that's how they ustream and such as I've been looking at that [14:34] Honestly, I'm a "get the sound into the computer as quickly and efficiently as possible" [14:34] I can do wonders with it before it even hits the drive [14:34] all of this pre-processing makes me nervous [14:34] er, I mean, I can do wonders with it when it hits the drive [14:34] after [14:34] gah, clarity of thought elusive. [14:39] lol' [14:39] Its the heat burst from yesterday [14:39] I am in the same boat. [14:40] I never lived in a two-level home before [14:40] I think I may embark on an epic project of zoned temperature controls. [14:41] tjagoda: yea, two stories is awful since upstairs is always so hot [14:42] and downstairs is cool, but doesn't tend to be bedroom space [14:45] Well, that and we had the window open last night [14:45] so all through the night I was waiting for the rain to come in [14:45] I found a small fan [14:45] thought JoDee might have stirred during the thunderstorm since she's the light sleeper, bot to no avail [14:45] which sits in place of the register cover [14:45] and is designed to increase the flow of air up the ducts to your upper floor [14:46] Yes, I am a rat-bastard that will wait for my wife to close the window. ;) [14:46] I may purchase and see if it makes any impact [14:46] heh, yea we didn't get real rain to close until around 3 or 4 am [14:46] Yeah [14:46] I have a few vornado fans I use all year round [14:47] <3 [14:47] in the winter put behind a radiator heater (electric) to help with the basement rooms [14:47] and in the summer, to help the whole house fan move air through the house/circulate the cold air from the AC [14:47] I already have central air [14:48] so with the proper application of solder and servo I could totally make a zoned system [14:48] Which hopefully would not burst into flames =P [14:48] lol [14:49] i have just learned which vents to open and close during which season [14:49] I psuedo do that [14:49] quad level home [14:49] Shut off the heat vents to my office in the winter since the PC heats it anyway [14:54] tjagoda needs a better pc [16:15] wolfger: my PC generates so much heat because it is high performance [16:15] Well [16:15] it was a couple years ago [16:15] Dual Radeon HD4870's make most of the head [16:15] I have a Phenom II but I have that on liquid cooling [16:17] Hrm [16:18] This is an interesting one [16:18] laptop got a new battery [16:18] will run on the battery fine [16:18] but it will not boot unless plugged into the wall [16:18] Undervoltage battery? [16:18] MB Temperature: +54.0°C (high = +45.0°C, crit = +95.0°C) [16:18] CPU Temperature: +109.4°F (high = +149.0°F, crit = +203.0°F) [16:18] MB Temperature: +129.2°F (high = +113.0°F, crit = +203.0°F) [16:18] That's my machine [16:20] tjagoda: May need to be fully charged? [16:20] It is [16:20] It was a replacement battery [16:20] as the old one was old and no longer held charge [16:20] Basically, you get the: push power button -> Battery indicator blinks amber [16:20] which to me would indicate battery fault [16:21] yet it still runs like normal when its booted on power, then detached from power and run on battery [16:22] <_stink_> shouldn't there be a spike in power draw on boot? [16:22] <_stink_> id' be worried the battery isn't good. [16:22] <_stink_> even if it can maintain a system already running. [16:23] I could probably just get CDW to RMA me a new battery [16:23] <_stink_> that'd be my approach. [16:26] j+1 [16:26] eeer, just +1 [16:32] woot #xoom guys just got SD card working, stupid moto. [16:46] Hows everybody else's stability on Unity, btw? [16:46] I'm not using it as a primary environment [16:46] but overall it's OK [16:47] I discovered that walking away from my laptop for a few hours results in me coming back to it, frozen, in mid screensaver [16:47] 100% of the time [16:47] I use it gingerly [16:47] in fear that it will soon crash [16:47] I should switch back into Gnome classic and see if performance is more stable [17:32] Anybody have any experience with or opinion on PyCamp? [17:33] nope [17:33] none here [17:46] jcastro: Where'd you guys go for the dino exhibit? [17:59] can someone on identica reply to this and tell him "no it doesn't" http://identi.ca/notice/67394509 [18:03] jrwren: The several byte header is uncompressed [18:05] though the @G limit is bullshit [18:05] 2G [18:09] There was a patch for certain OSes for >4GB [18:14] snap-l: U of M paleontology museum [18:14] Ah, cool [18:20] rick_h_: / snap-l hey, uh, both DBO's and my interviews are labelled "episode 15" in the blog post title [18:21] oops [18:21] Blame rick_h_ [18:21] ;) [18:21] copy/paste at the worst [18:21] yea, my fault [18:21] im the real episode 15 [18:21] will the real episode 15 please stand up [18:21] all the other episode 15's are just imitating [18:21] updated, thanks for the heads up [18:21] no worries [18:21] what I get for working on crap right before bed [18:21] ugh, crazy weekend [18:21] I bet [18:22] Im starting to think the entire world was on overdrive this weekend [18:22] and this is why we label .mp3 files by date vs episode number [18:22] DBO: heh, yea though nice when you get a lot done over a weekend [18:22] 14 bugs closed in a weekend [18:22] Im happy with myself [18:27] I was on overdrive last week, you should see my status update for work, and that was with a day off to fly to SF for all of 15 hours of feet on the ground [18:27] <_stink_> i think it's spring motivation. [18:27] yeah, yesterday we went outside and started doing yardwork [18:28] the weather is making it really hard to focus on this documentation, god I hate doc. [18:28] :) [18:35] man, this sucks. Review time has hit and I'm supposed to peer review people I did one project with. [18:35] i hated that project, it sucked, how do I know if it's them or the project? [18:46] rick_h_: You don't. :) [18:47] snap-l: wheeee [18:47] how vague can I word these answers so as to remain anon and really not rate anything in particular [18:50] "I'm not sure whether to blame the monkeys or the zoo-keeper for the amount of shit that was in the project cage". [18:56] "Bob is an achiever in the field of accomplishment." [18:58] thank you "meets expectations" drop down [18:58] "Yep, he met expectations by taking care of xxx and yyy"... [18:58] not checked for length so good so far [18:58] snap-l: there is no limit for gzip... at least not the gnu version. [18:59] cat uncompressed | gzip > compressed # there is no limit here, its unpossible. [19:05] the ambiguity of "meets expectations" is astounding [19:05] It's the ultimate weasel phrase. [19:05] well, there's hints there for you [19:05] jrwren: There was at one time on certain OSes [19:06] 1.2.4 [19:06] but the analysis that the person made is bogus [19:33] right. [19:33] I <3 calls that go completely off the rails. [20:01] yay, a request for a status report [20:02] Otherwise known as the 1 hour you'll never get back reporting the 7 hours fretting over what to put in the status report. [20:04] rick_h_: 15:02 < jono_> snap-l, nice work on the lococast :-) [20:05] nice [20:05] on which part? [20:05] or just in general? [20:05] Not sure [20:05] wondering if he checked out greg or DBO or what [20:05] Told him to thank you as well [20:05] ah, nice [20:05] well cool, I think we're on track. We kept saying a year and I looked it up, 6/21 is one year [20:06] heh [20:06] train kept-a-rollin' all night long [20:08] snap-l: so greg-g's interview [20:09] yes? [20:10] snap-l: that's what he was checking out that prompted the comment [20:11] sorry, back to jono [20:11] Ah, OK. [20:11] Well, greg-g is interesting to talk to anyway. ;) [20:12] and greg-g is _so dreamy_ [20:12] lol [20:13] it's the beard [20:20] I'm installing Python under Windows [20:20] fear me [20:21] there's a disturbance in the force [20:21] * greg-g blushes [20:23] snap-l: where did jono say that? PM? [20:24] greg-g: yea [20:24] snap-l: it's really quite nice. windows becomes 100x more useful afterwards [20:24] greg-g: and in the severed fifth channel [20:25] though not with a link to the direct eposide [20:25] episode, even [20:28] cool [20:39] sad that he hasn't said anything to me ;) [20:39] (he == jono) [20:39] Not sure if the network is the problem, but boy is this miserable. [20:39] lol, he knows where the true great work was done, snap-l then me, and then the talent :P [20:40] and only came to me because snap-l said to tell me [20:41] Yeah, it's because I'm fantastic. :) [20:42] well, he's we know you have your total OMC fame [20:42] bah [20:42] that came out a bit twisted [20:43] skippy we damn know [20:43] Does windows seriously not explode eggs? [21:08] lol [21:09] I hate corporate proxies [21:10] snap-l: ++ (or wait +1 is the new coolness right?) [21:10] <_stink_> is it? [21:10] Since google is so in to Python, I'd think they'd use reaction = reaction + 1 [21:11] [Like] [21:11] [fuck facebook] [21:15] i don't like broken eggs. [23:27] Hurray for meetings [23:29] yay? [23:29] stil in one [23:30] oh [23:39] must … resist … troll … post [23:39] "A client wants me to convert their asp/mssql webapp to php/mysql." [23:40] run! [23:41] it's from the grlug list [23:42] I'm not sure that's really an improvement [23:48] brousch++ for using actual ellipses [23:50] adium did it for me [23:50] i did three periods [23:51] well fine. I revoke my ++ and target it at adium.
