[00:52] <Sadin> Anyone know of a guide for making custom skins?
[00:54] <ChinnoDog> Start with epidermis of favorite species, add to nutrient rich brine, wait 3 weeks.
[00:56] <Sadin> :O
[00:56] <Sadin> lol what
[00:56] <ChinnoDog> nothing
[00:57] <teddy-dbear> start with the skin of a ChinnoDog ;-)
[00:57]  * Sadin grabs a knife here doggy doggy doggy

[00:58] <Sadin> :O i didnt get added to the plant set
[00:58] <Sadin> (sadface)
[01:06] <jedijf> Sadin: pleia2's flying atm, by tomorrow it will be done
[01:06] <Sadin> Oh okay cool :)
[01:08] <ChinnoDog> pleia2 is always out having fun without us
[01:10] <Sadin> Can i ask your opinion on something
[01:11] <jedijf> ask?
[01:11] <PennBot> Don't ask to ask, just ask! :P
[01:11] <Sadin> im building my online Portfolio and i wanted to know what you think is best included in a basic web portfolio
[01:11]  * Sadin already has a general idea but wants more thoughts
[01:16] <Sadin> anyone?
[01:19] <teddy-dbear> a picture of me :-D
[01:23] <ChinnoDog> It depends who the audience is
[01:23] <Sadin> ChinnoDog web developers and designers mostly
[01:25] <ChinnoDog> Then I imagine you just need enough to prove that you know what you are doing.

[01:25] <PennBot> Title: Digital Web Magazine - Creating The Perfect Portfolio (at 64.13.255.16)
[01:25] <ChinnoDog> If i were trying to get a web development job I would proably try to include one project that I had explained the workings of somehow.
[01:32] <Sadin> Yeah that sounds good
[01:33] <Sadin> im starting the designing process in GIMP now
[01:35] <pleia2> Sadin: I didn't recieve an email from you, sent to lyz@ubuntu.com ?
[01:35] <Sadin> Yes ill try again mabye my email client didnt send :/
[01:36]  * pleia2 gives up on airplane wifi again, way too slow for ssh :)
[01:37] <Sadin> pleia2 ok its sent :)
[01:38] <ChinnoDog> pleia2: even with compression?
[01:41] <Sadin> Beginning work on my portfolio design first designing some icons and social buttons :)
[01:43] <teddy-dbear> don't forget my picture :-[

[01:48] <teddy-dbear> me^
[02:12] <Sadin> ugh this isnt going as well as i had hoped it doesnt look right time to try a new design
[02:13] <teddy-dbear> told you to include a picture of me ;-)
[02:20] <InHisName> teddy-dbear sure is getting vain in his older years
[02:21] <ChinnoDog> probably needs his own web site
[02:26] <Sadin> :O i made a facebook icon sweet
[02:26] <ChinnoDog> One entitled "The Altar of Teddy"
[02:26] <Sadin> now to make a twitter and deviant art icon
[02:28] <teddy-dbear> I'm way to cute to ignore :-D
[03:15] <Sadin> can anyone help me trubleshoot my startup disk creator?
[03:16] <teddy-dbear> how did you mess it up?
[03:16] <ChinnoDog> Yea, that is pretty hard to screw up
[03:16] <Sadin> i didnt really it just wont select my iso
[03:17] <ChinnoDog> Does the ISO appear in the list of source images at the top?
[03:17] <Sadin> no
[03:18] <ChinnoDog> Did you press the "Other..." button and select it?
[03:18] <ChinnoDog> hi IdleOne
[03:18] <Sadin> yeah and when i select it and hit open it stays blank
[03:19] <IdleOne> hello ChinnoDog
[03:20] <ChinnoDog> hrm. I haven't had to select one. My images are in ~/Downloads and they appered automatically. Try putting your iso in Downloads and restarting the startup disk creator to see if it apears.
[03:22] <Sadin> They are
[03:23] <ChinnoDog> launch usb-creator-gtk from a command line and see any errors are printed at the console
[03:24] <Sadin> Ubable to find Joliet SVD
[03:24] <ChinnoDog> I get that too but it doesn't prevent mine from working
[03:24] <Sadin> hmm erg
[03:24] <Sadin> this kinda of stuff always happens to me :(
[03:24] <ChinnoDog> stupid question. You have a burner in your computer?
[03:24] <Sadin> yup
[03:26] <ChinnoDog> What happens if you pass the iso to it at the command line with -i?
[03:27] <Sadin> i dont have a clue what you just said not fluent in command line sorry
[03:27] <ChinnoDog> chinnodog@kabibonooka:~/Downloads$ usb-creator-gtk -i clonezilla-live-20110328-maverick.iso
[03:27] <ChinnoDog> like that
[03:28] <Sadin> um let me try
[03:31] <Sadin> it lets me pick my usb disk but the create startup disk button is still greyed out..
[03:33] <Sadin> when i try to format my usb it says error already mounted...
[03:34] <ChinnoDog> It doesn't let you create the startup disk unless you have selected a partition it can go on
[03:34] <Sadin> i selected my usb...
[03:35] <ChinnoDog> The device or the partition?
[03:35] <Sadin> It doesnt have any partitions
[03:35] <Sadin> its formatted as FAT
[03:35] <ChinnoDog> When I make USB startup disks I always erase the usb stick first using the Erase Disk button, then select the new partition, then press the "Make Startup Disk" button
[03:35] <ChinnoDog> Is it ok to erase it?
[03:36] <Sadin> i cant press the Make Startup Disk button and ive erased it multiple times :/
[03:36] <ChinnoDog> After you erase it you end up with two items in the device window. One will be the usb drive, the other will be the first partition. e.g. on my computer I get /dev/sdd and /dev/sdd1
[03:36] <ChinnoDog> You have to select the partition, i.e. /dev/sdd1 before you can press the button
[03:37] <Sadin> i have /dev/sdb1 and thats it
[03:38] <Sadin> ill just burn the iso to a VD instead of my usb manually
[03:38] <Sadin> to much trouble
[03:39] <ChinnoDog> You should see /dev/sdb in there too
[03:39] <Sadin> well thats the problem i dont lol
[03:39] <ChinnoDog> hrm. I've never had a problem with the startup disk creator.
[03:39]  * jthan shakes his fist
[03:39] <jthan> computers...
[03:39] <jthan> Why can't we just use our trust abacus?
[03:39] <Sadin> haha
[03:40] <jthan> trusty
[03:54] <Sadin> Hopefully just burning my image to my CD will work i need to get XP reinstalled ASAP on my desktop :|
[04:01] <Sadin> GUYS GUYS i got my junker that wasnt detecting a HD to finnaly open a startup disk correctly!
[04:02] <Sadin> OMG EPIC
[04:02] <ChinnoDog> thats cool
[04:03] <ChinnoDog> Lets hope your luck continues.
[04:03] <Sadin> it wouldnt work with my ubuntu disk though had to setting with arch linux :/
[04:03] <ChinnoDog> Your junker must be from 1995. lol
[04:04] <Sadin> thats the year i was born :D
[04:05] <ChinnoDog> I was afraid you were going to say that.
[04:05] <Sadin> lol
[04:05] <Sadin> im attempting ubuntu server install on it
[04:07]  * waltman does the math...
[04:08] <waltman> Sadin: My keyboard is older than you!
[04:08] <waltman> My mouse might be, too.
[04:08] <Sadin> haha
[04:09] <Sadin> what are you still doing with it :P
[04:09] <waltman> Tying on it?
[04:09] <waltman> They knew how to make keyboards back then :)
[04:10] <ChinnoDog> Yea, mechanical switches ftw.
[04:10] <waltman> er, typing
[04:10] <ChinnoDog> The clickers lasted about 3x longer than membrane keyboards.
[04:10] <waltman> super clicky, too.  And it weighs half a ton.
[04:10] <Sadin> :D windows xp install working ugh this saved my but
[04:10] <ChinnoDog> I saw online somewhere that there is a company that makes those now, brand new.
[04:11] <waltman> ChinnoDog: It's a vintage Northgate Omnikey
[04:11] <ChinnoDog> When I was new to computers I remember how I would get all stressed out when I misconfigured DOS or screwed up my Win 3.11 configuratino.
[04:44] <Sadin> i made another wallpaper this ones pretty sweet :D
[04:48] <Sadin> Wewt windows installed just fine :)
[04:51] <Sadin> now i wonder what i will use the junker for D:
[10:48] <JonathanD> Good morning.
[11:00] <rmg51> morning JonathanD

[17:43] <jthan> hm. alright.

[18:05] <JonathanD> jthan needs to come to geeknic.
[18:11] <ChinnoDog> PennBot: geeknic?
[18:11] <PennBot> Somebody said geeknic is http://wiki.geeknic.org/index.php/Lower_Perkiomen_Geeknic, ChinnoDog
[18:11] <ChinnoDog> That is from last year.
[18:12] <JonathanD> Yes, it is.
[18:12] <JonathanD> PennBot: forget geeknic
[18:12] <PennBot> 10-4, JonathanD.
[18:13] <JonathanD> PennBot: geeknic is a picnic for geeks. The next one is in June. http://geeknic.org/?p=144
[18:13] <PennBot> Okay!
[18:24] <ChinnoDog> PennBot needs a brain
[18:24] <PennBot> Dunno!
[18:27] <InHisName> Donate half to PennBot and then you are only half-brained!
[18:28] <ChinnoDog> But, I don't want to be single core.
[18:29] <InHisName> Most were born twin-core.
[18:29] <InHisName> So do you want an 8-tuple head ?
[18:30] <InHisName> The interface bus would be a doozie
[18:31] <ChinnoDog> Yes, but it has to be 8 core, not dual quad core.
[18:51] <teddy-dbear> stuffing has always worked for me ;-)
[19:26] <InHisName> check this out: http://questionparty.com/questions/show/69432
[19:26] <PennBot> Title: Question Party! (at questionparty.com)
[19:27] <InHisName> after 5 weeks someone answered the question I put.
[20:05] <pleia2> andrew: the ubuntu logo on the windows key of my mini9 is just one from the standard sticker sheet http://shop.canonical.com/product_info.php?products_id=718
[20:05] <PennBot> Title: Canonical StoreCanonical Store (at shop.canonical.com)
[20:05] <pleia2> it's holding up remarkably well for what it is
[20:08]  * ssweeny loves that laptops are coming out with different logos (i.e. ubuntu) on that key
[20:09] <JonathanD> really?
[20:09] <JonathanD> my ubuntu sticker is long since just a silver label thing :P
[20:09] <JonathanD> ssweeny: what we need is a multiboot key that morphs depending on which OS is active.
[20:09] <JonathanD> and can detect remote desktop and VNC, etc, and morph for those too
[20:09]  * JonathanD nods
[20:10] <JonathanD> not terribly useful, but it'd be nifty.
[20:10] <ssweeny> they have keyboards where each key is an lcd display and hence changeable
[20:11] <JonathanD> I've seen those.
[20:11] <ssweeny> so not entirely out of the question
[20:11] <JonathanD> You've have to load it up with all the distro logos, I suppose.
[20:11] <JonathanD> ssweeny: probably a rather expensive thing for one key.
[20:11] <ssweeny> just put it in the driver
[20:11] <JonathanD> ssweeny: that works for multiboot.
[20:12] <JonathanD> what about remote access ? :P
[20:17] <andrew> pleia2: that probably doesn't work well on the rounded windows keys that exist on dell keyboards
[20:20] <pleia2> andrew: ah, probably not
[20:20] <pleia2> mine doesn't have the silly roundednes
[20:20] <JonathanD> mm, no unity on this box.
[20:20]  * JonathanD heading into CC tonight.
[20:20] <JonathanD> if anyone wants to come party at basekamp.
[20:20] <JonathanD> whoooooooo
[20:25] <jthan> JonathanD: I'd love to come to geeknic, but that weekend isn't too free on my calendar :-(
[20:26] <JonathanD> make it free!
[20:27] <JonathanD> The bears will eat anyone who unfrees it.
[20:27] <JonathanD> They're good like that.
[20:27] <andrew> pleia2: Also, I'm confused that they think a 2D sticker is special, let alone worth extra
[20:28] <andrew> what's the date again for that thing, JonathanD ?
[20:28] <andrew> hrm, i may or may not be able to make that one
[20:29] <andrew> probably on the not, due to potentially visiting my brother during that week
[20:33] <JonathanD> invite him to geeknic, visit him there.
[20:38] <andrew> hrm, seneca rocks/nelson rocks vs geeknic
[20:40] <pleia2> andrew: who thinks what sticker is special?
[20:41] <Sadin> Hi everyone :)
[20:41] <ChinnoDog> hello
[20:42] <JonathanD> Hello ssweeny
[20:42] <JonathanD> erm, hello Sadin
[20:42] <andrew> pleia2: "Fancy something a little different? Then treat yourself to some two-dimensional (2D) Ubuntu stickers..." from that link you shared above at 15:05
[20:42] <pleia2> ah
[20:43] <andrew> Aren't most stickers two-dimensional?
[20:43] <pleia2> they feel foamy, I bought a couple at UDS
[20:43] <pleia2> I think they should call them 3d, they are raised
[20:44] <andrew> so... perhaps a third...
[20:44] <pleia2> not sure what to put them on, since they aren't flat I suspect the CoF will get damaged on my laptop
[20:44] <pleia2> I don't think they know what 2D means :)
[20:46] <JonathanD> pleia2: where can I get the 1D stickers?
[20:46] <jthan> JonathanD: find pencil, draw image
[20:46] <jthan> nope. that's 2D isn't it...
[20:46] <jthan> fail thinking.
[20:46] <JonathanD> yes.
[20:46] <pleia2> has to just be a line
[20:46] <JonathanD> has to have no thickness too :p
[20:46] <jthan> A Line is two-dimensionsal
[20:46] <pleia2> yes, a thicknessless line
[20:46] <JonathanD> jthan: 3, actually.
[20:47] <jthan> JonathanD: yes, in theory. To the eye? Not so much.
[20:47] <JonathanD> since the graphite leaves height, as well :p
[20:47] <Sadin> i cant decide to ither put ubuntu server on my old desktop i just fixed or just put desktop on it :/
[20:47] <pleia2> it's invisible actually, I'll sned you one
[20:47] <jthan> lol
[20:47] <jedijf> Sadin: it works now?
[20:48] <Sadin> Yeah i just burned a startup disk and put it in and it detected the HD
[20:48] <Sadin> or so i thought at least setup booted right up just fine unlike before when the HD was in the other desktop i have
[20:50] <Sadin> jedijf now i just gotta figure out what i want to do with it haha
[20:51] <andrew> Alrightly, we'll see what they say about it
[20:51] <jedijf> Sadin: haha know that feeling....what to do
[20:59] <teddy-dbear> in jedijf's case just break something :-D
[21:02] <Sadin> I really have no clue
[21:02] <Sadin> :P
[21:06]  * Sadin wishes he could use his photoshop in ubuntu :(

[21:08] <teddy-dbear> bye-bye
[21:08] <Sadin> is it possible to get PS for linux
[21:08] <Sadin> ?
[21:09]  * Sadin thinks that was a dumb question possibly
