snap-lIt is talking every fiber of my being not to turn around and say that this is a huge load of horseshit01:09
snap-lBwahahahaha01:11
rick_h_they were talking about verizon microcell type boxes/etc earlier01:11
snap-lGee, either they're like Amway, or they're just talking shit01:13
snap-lPerhaps I repeat myself01:13
snap-lhere's the hard sell01:14

greg-gI'm missing some fun times at CHC, eh?01:40
BlazeixI'm generally really good at blocking people out while working. But not with these guys.01:41
rick_h_yea, we're surrounded01:41
rick_h_'STFU' and "ooh, VOIP FTW!"01:41

rick_h_ok, well 3.512:48
snap-lapt-cache searches the *cache*, not some remote online database14:02
snap-lSeriously? That took 3.5 years?14:02
ColonelPanic001>_>14:03
rick_h_:)14:06
greg-gg'morn14:16
snap-lI'm a litle bit pissed14:16
snap-lI just got told that our web services gateway needs \r\n, not just \n14:17
snap-lin an expression that gets sent to it14:17
snap-land that I should really use wireshark to test this out beforehand14:17
snap-lConsidering a) I'm on a unix machine, and \n is damn fine enough without adding the carriage return, and b) it's https, so wireshark is pretty much useless, that recommendation was tried14:18
rick_h_heh14:19
Milyardowireshark? for what?14:23
snap-lSo, now to tell this group that requiring \r\n is anachronistic14:23
snap-lMilyardo: To debug the soap request we were sending14:23
snap-lApparently they're correct. It's in the RFC and everything14:49
snap-lso essentially the W3C is anachronistic.14:50
_stink_huh - when i was sending soap to a horrible windows stack server, it handled \n just fine.14:50
_stink_and this product was/is horrible.14:50
snap-lbetween the request bondaries?14:50
_stink_i never built a \r\n anywhere.14:51
_stink_by request boundaries, do you mean something like many requests in one TCP connection or something?14:51
snap-lconsidering I downloaded this from another source, I tend to agree.14:51
snap-lYeah, attachments14:51
_stink_ah, ok.  i may have never done that in particular.14:52
snap-lThat's OK, it doesn't seem to work anyway.14:53
greg-gsnap-l: dang RFC's laying down the law15:16
greg-g(they're the closest thing we have to laws on the web)15:16
snap-lWell, what I loved was how snotty this person was about it15:18
snap-land in the end, it still doesn't work15:18
rick_h_ well if you were hoping the tech team shoots down unity, not likely: http://arstechnica.com/open-source/news/2011/04/unity-environment-in-good-shape-on-track-for-ubuntu-1104.ars15:18
snap-lasked him if he actually ran the code15:18
rick_h_lol15:18
rick_h_but of course not, why would you go through all that trouble15:19
snap-lHe came off as a real dick of "if you haven't done something so simple, I can't be bothered to help you"15:19
greg-ggrr15:25
brouschGRR? coming here for a visit?15:26
greg-g:)15:27
jrwreni hate macs.15:48
jrwrenthey mouse accel is all fucked and the home and end keys do the wrong thing. this old dog will be windows and linux 4 ever.15:49
rick_h_+ .515:49
_stink_haha15:49
jrwrenif 11.10 goes further with teh mac direction and changes the mouse adn home/end, I'm changing distro :)15:49
jrwrenand that is the start of my troll bait for today.15:49
rick_h_lol, take my window manager, but leave my home/end keys15:49
rick_h_snap-l sounds too busy to fight back today15:49
rick_h_but his angst levels might be elevated, could be a good time if he arrives15:50
brouschjrwren: you have home and end keys?15:51
brouschand a mouse?15:51
snap-lAcutally, I agree that home / end on a mac are kind of screwed up15:51
snap-lwas one thing that really didn't make sense.15:52
snap-lrick_h_: So, neener neener. ;)15:52
rick_h_lol15:52
rick_h_booooo, that wasn't entertaining15:52
jrwrenat least the ide I'm in does emacs ctrl-a, ctrl-e, but after 6yrs of home and end, i'm having a rough time adjusting15:52
jrwrenrick_h_: shall i attempt to make snap-l's angst levels rise further?15:53
snap-lThe mac mouse profiles are different than Windows15:53
rick_h_I'm trying to train myself away from home/end15:53
rick_h_it's too far away15:54
snap-lI think they're smoother, not necessarily better.15:54
snap-lI got away from ctrl-a for home on the command-line because of screen. :)15:54
snap-lbut ctrl-e is a godsend15:54
jrwrenrick_h_: 6-10 yrs ago I was home/end free... i was all emacs & vim and could easily switch between those two env.15:54
jrwrenbut i lost that skill :(15:54
jrwrensnap-l: you don't ctrl-a a15:55
jrwreni type ctrl-a a more than ctrl-a for BOL and so I often get ^A when i'm outside of screen :)15:55
snap-lheh15:55
=== jjesse_ is now known as jjesse
rick_h_I don't use screen as much as I should15:56
rick_h_so I've not started to work around it's shortcuts15:56
snap-lI think Byobu's shortcuts are better. They use the Fn keys.15:56
snap-lso Fn2 is new screen15:57
snap-lBut Ctrl-A still works, though15:57
rick_h_bah, it messes me up for some reason. Something fails for me, tring to recall what15:57
_stink_just remap screen's prefix to `.15:57
snap-lLeave it to GNU utilities to screw up keybindings between programs in the termial15:58
rick_h_I keep trying byobu but end up back to screen15:58
greg-gok, I just tested ctrl+a and ctrl+e in vim, and uh, that was amazing. ctrl-a added 1 to any number I was on and ctrl-e copied whatever was below/above to the line I was one16:02
snap-lgreg-g: Yes, repeat after me: vi is not emacs. ;)16:02
jrwreni hate byobu shortcuts.16:02
jrwreni use byobu for the nice bottom bar, but I still use they screen keyboard16:02
jrwreni want to figure out how to turn off the byobu Fn keys.16:02
greg-gsnap-l: oh, it was emacs they were talking about16:02
* greg-g hangs head16:02
snap-lWell, bash command line in emacs mode16:03
snap-lwhich is more sensical than the vim shortcut mode16:03
snap-land this is from a hardcore vim user.16:03
jrwrengreg-g: bash starts in emacs mode by default on most distro. type a line in bash adn try ctrl-a ctrle there.16:03
rick_h_psh, zsh + vim mode == heaven16:03
snap-lrick_h_: Yes yes, we know.16:03
jrwrensnap-l: agreed, although I have played with the bash vim mode and decided that it would be very sweet if I were a sysadmin16:03
snap-ljrwren: Agreed16:04
rick_h_did I mention zsh > bash?16:04
rick_h_:)16:04
jrwreni didn't discover bash vim mode until after I left sysadmin world :(16:04
jrwrenzsh is BARELY > bash16:04
rick_h_hahahahahahahahahahaha16:04
jrwrenand given bash is more ubiquotous, i'll stick with being able to run my scripts more places.16:04
rick_h_bash feels like logging into cmd.exe16:04
jrwrennote: I stole that argument from jam for perl > python :)16:04
rick_h_who said anything about scripts16:04
rick_h_I mean in just usage16:04
jrwreni spike scripts at the cmd line all the time.16:05
rick_h_zsh, type less:do more (I should start an ad campaign)16:05
jrwrenthen ctrl-a echo ' and ctrl-e ' > startofnewscript16:05
jrwrentype less? well, I do like ot type less.16:05
rick_h_0 == shorter than ctrl-a16:05
rick_h_$ = shorter than ctrl-e16:05
jrwrenmeh, esc 0, you ahve to get into mode.16:05
jrwrenso its 2 keys to 2 keys.16:06
rick_h_it accepts the same alias I use in vim, jj, it supports D, dw, d4w, etc16:06
jrwrenor 4 keys to 3 keys16:06
jrwrenyes yes, bash vim mode does all that too16:06
snap-lAnd now we have our morning flamewar. :)16:06
rick_h_nope, bash does not allow you to map a custom esc16:06
rick_h_there we go! flame on!16:06
jrwrenyou mean change meta?16:06
jrwrensure it does.16:06
rick_h_https://github.com/mitechie/zshrc for the nice lovely list16:07
rick_h_no, I mean allow me to say "map jj to esc when in insert mode"16:07
jrwrenbecause its not actually ESC, its meta... and in bash it comes from readline, so just set meta to what you want in .readlinerc.16:07
rick_h_bindkey "jj" vi-cmd-mode16:07
jrwrenwhat do you use for your meta?16:07
jrwrenjj?16:07
jrwrenwtf is jj?16:08
rick_h_meta lol16:08
rick_h_it's an easier to hit home row combo to change modes16:08
jrwrenlike literally typing hte j key twice?16:08
rick_h_yes, in rapid succession16:08
jrwrenhow rapid? I htink I might hate that.16:08
jrwren"double click the j key"16:08
jrwrenrol16:08
rick_h_lol16:08
rick_h_much nicer than the esc key, or ctrl-] and such16:09
rick_h_so shell matches vim == win16:09
rick_h_without doing any meta/etc remapping16:09
jrwrenindeed that is sweet.16:10
jrwrenyou use teh same thing to toggle modes in vim?16:10
rick_h_right16:10
rick_h_" Maps for jj to act as Esc16:10
rick_h_ino jj <esc>16:10
rick_h_cno jj <c-c>16:10
_stink_aren't there some Icelandic words with adjacent 'j's?16:11
_stink_what if you needed to type them?16:11
rick_h_yep, thankfully I don't care since I'm american and hate the rest of the world with a fiery passion16:11
rick_h_I do sometimes need j's and you have to slow down16:12
rick_h_it has a timeout where if you don't hit a second key, it just types a j16:12
rick_h_the rest of the time I can switch modes much faster from home row so it's a worthwile tradeoff16:12
BlazeixI hear the Hajj is nice this time of year.16:15
_stink_Blazeix++16:16
rick_h_lol, how long did that take to pull up?16:16
snap-lhttp://www.digibarn.com/collections/screenshots/xerox-star-8010/index.html16:17
rick_h_loading...loading...loading...16:18
_stink_yeah, dns times out here16:18
snap-lI think it's getting slashdotted16:18
rick_h_cache comes up sans images16:18
brouschcame up very quickly for me just now16:19
brouschhm, all of the links are purple like i'd already visited them16:20
brouschwow, they had email and non-English letters back then16:23
snap-lYeah, pretty radical.16:23
snap-lGrr, I hate it when I'm wrong16:39
rick_h_ruh roh16:39
snap-lYeah, apparently \r\n is needed16:40
snap-land the XML I was sending was messed up16:40
snap-lIt's positional, not a list like I thought it was.16:40
snap-lblargh16:40
snap-lOn the plus side, I have something working. :)16:41

TeamXlinkIs running a 300 wat recommended graphics card on a 250wat psu a bad idea?17:23
tjagodaYes17:28
tjagodaThe card will perform incorrect math when under-voltage17:28
tjagodaStrange glitches and etc.17:28
TeamXlinkAlright, sweet thank you!17:28
tjagodanp17:28
wolfgeruh...17:35
wolfgerwouldn't that actually be under-current?17:35
wolfger<-- nit-picky17:35
Milyardowolfger: V=IR, decreasing voltage decreases current since R is constant18:11
wolfgerMilyardo: P=IE. If a 250W power supply provides 5VDC (or 24VDC, or whatever), the full load amps is constant. If a device requires 350W, it's not asking for higher than normal volts, therefore it must be asking for higher than available amps18:24
wolfgerthere is such a thing as a current supply, where the current is constant and the voltage varies, but I've never seen such a thing in a computer. Pinout specify the constant voltage supplied, amps is variable depending on the draw.18:25

brouscha multi-network client like hootsuite gets around that problem18:55

snap-lDon't worry, it will get worse.18:56
brouschi hate facebook18:58
snap-lI do too. I deleted my account a while ago18:59
snap-lBut, Facebook is moving more and more toward social activity over social presence. It is not enough just to follow somebody. You also have to hug them.18:59

greg-gmy boss walks in, asks whether I wear the headphones to listen to music or to make people think I listen to much. I say "both." She then asks what I'm listening to. I should have plugged OMC, but, I don't think she would have understood the term "industrial" :)21:55
