[00:10] <kowen> Hello, everyone.
[00:12] <_marx_> dude
[00:12] <kowen> ... dude.
[00:13] <_marx_> wake forest rules ;)
[00:13] <kowen> Should I know what you're referring to? :P
[00:14] <_marx_> your ip says unch.unc.edu
[00:14] <_marx_> i'
[00:14] <_marx_> m in winston
[00:14] <kowen> Ah.
[00:14] <kowen> Yeah, I work at UNC Hospitals. Thus the "h."
[00:15] <_marx_> small ACC thing there
[00:15] <_marx_> ah
[00:16] <_marx_> there are some convoluted addresses for wfu.edu as well
[00:17] <kowen> Ha, I'm sure.
[00:17] <kowen> Oh, and as a disclaimer, I really don't do the whole "school rivalry" thing. I just work here for the insurance. :P
[00:19] <_marx_> well I'll root for Wake, but not big into sports, and I can dig working for benies
[00:20] <kowen> Well, when you have juvenile diabetes, getting health insurance is amazing. Privately, I'd be paying over $1,000 a month. :|
[00:20] <kowen> But yeah, I'm rather affiliation-less.
[00:22]  * _marx_ has been fortunate; rather old w/no insurance, my hands hurt most days
[00:22] <kowen> Mm. I can't survive without it... literally. :|
[00:23] <_marx_> you met akgraner at the release party?
[00:24] <kowen> Momentarily.
[00:24] <_marx_> ok
[00:24] <kowen> Unfortunately, I had to leave early.
[00:24] <_marx_> i'm the markthecarp that replied on team list
[00:25] <kowen> Ah, yes. Carpenter, not fish. :P
[00:25] <_marx_> exactly
[00:25] <_marx_> working on a metal roof job this week
[00:26] <kowen> Is that good, bad, or indifferent?
[00:27] <_marx_> good, pays well
[00:27] <kowen> Good, then.
[00:27] <kowen> I don't know the first thing about it. :P
[00:28] <_marx_> be careful it will cut your hands; but it
[00:28] <_marx_> 's much easier than shingles
[00:28] <_marx_> do you do drupal at all?
[00:28] <kowen> Never really worked with it much. I installed it once and just toyed with it for a little while.
[00:29] <_marx_> so what's your preferred CMS?
[00:29] <kowen> You assume that I use them. :P
[00:30] <kowen> Personally, I've never had the need to.
[00:30] <_marx_> ah true that
[00:30] <kowen> I tend to roll-my-own for the most part.
[00:34] <kowen> And... be right back.
[00:34] <_marx_> roll your own is cool on several levels, rolled my own os for a couple of years
[00:44] <kowen> And I'm back.
[00:45] <kowen> So, rolled your own OS, you mean similar to an LFS system? (Linux From Scratch, in case that was ambiguous.)
[00:45] <_marx_> yep
[00:45] <kowen> Very nice.
[00:46] <_marx_> pita compared to today
[00:46] <kowen> Ha, absolutely. Now you can just use remastersys and clone a package repo. :P
[00:48] <kowen> (I must admit, I've never put together a GNU/Linux system from scratch; tried, but failed about two years ago.)
[00:48] <_marx_> well expect to fail a few times; that's pretty normal for scratch
[00:49] <kowen> Oh, I know it is. ;)
[00:49] <kowen> I just tried when I was still pretty new to GNU/Linux; I might have a modicum of success now... maybe.
[00:50] <_marx_> mine was with really oddball hardware; dual p90's that sort of thing
[00:50] <kowen> That must have been entertaining.
[00:51] <_marx_> much cussing ;) why won't you boot!
[00:54] <_marx_> today it is much nicer on soo many levels
[00:55] <kowen> I'm sure. I don't really have any experience further back than 2008, except for tinkering in Red Hat on my dad's server when he wasn't there. :P
[00:56]  * _marx_ goes to pester the su
