| jgould | wow... that was a random thunderstorm... | 00:46 |
|---|---|---|
| * Unit193 didn't get one... | 00:47 | |
| jgould | oh... we did | 00:47 |
| jgould | Also, Ubuntu just pissed me off on the laptop | 00:48 |
| Unit193 | ...better than pissed on me... | 00:49 |
| skellat | So what did it do or not do? | 00:49 |
| skellat | Well, ping timeouts are not cool I guess... | 00:57 |
| Unit193 | That was his server... | 00:58 |
| Unit193 | That means router cutout | 00:58 |
| skellat | Well, nasty weather was on the move earlier | 00:59 |
| * skellat burps | 01:06 | |
| * skrappjaw is ready for more bad weather. | 01:10 | |
| skrappjaw | Just not when I have to tote my equipment out for a gig. | 01:11 |
| skellat | skrappjaw: What sort of gig? | 01:14 |
| skrappjaw | i play bass and sing. | 01:18 |
| skrappjaw | with a band. We have drums, bass, 2 guitars, horns and an organ player. | 01:19 |
| skrappjaw | we share vocal duties among us so no one person gets worn out. | 01:19 |
| skellat | Cool | 01:29 |
| dmcglone1 | wazzup ppl ;-) | 01:30 |
| dmcglone1 | wake up its the troll :-) | 01:30 |
| skrappjaw | jammin some tom waits | 01:32 |
| skellat | I'm awake...most others are enjoying the weather... | 01:32 |
| dmcglone1 | we just had a pretty bad storm | 01:32 |
| skrappjaw | where are you dmcglonel | 01:33 |
| skrappjaw | ? | 01:33 |
| dmcglone1 | it blew over pretty quick though. | 01:33 |
| dmcglone1 | Columbus skrappjaw | 01:33 |
| dmcglone1 | Ordered a pizza while it was storming and the guy was like, we'll be there as soon as we can thats how bad it was | 01:34 |
| dmcglone1 | wish it would hurry and get here, I'm so dang hungary | 01:35 |
| skrappjaw | ic | 01:37 |
| skrappjaw | ya. just checked the radar. we are in for it tonight. there is a storm that is building from indianapolis to toledo. I'm in mansfield. Just north of you. | 01:38 |
| skrappjaw | Good thing mom is cooking dinner @ home tonight | 01:39 |
| dmcglone1 | I would have cooked but I'm still down with my back | 01:42 |
| dmcglone1 | I asked my wife what was for dinner when I got home and she said, whatever you can find, so I found the phone number for the pizza place :-) | 01:43 |
| skellat | I wrote in teh gopherspace: http://ur1.ca/4cls5 | 02:00 |
| canthus13 | gopher? | 02:01 |
| skellat | Yep | 02:01 |
| canthus13 | Heh. I remember when gopher was and the web wasn't. | 02:01 |
| skellat | So do I...I was in junior high at the time | 02:02 |
| * canthus13 was in college. | 02:02 | |
| skellat | For a lightweight protocol, Gopher does plenty | 02:03 |
| canthus13 | Yup. I wasted hours and hours exploring gopher... | 02:03 |
| canthus13 | Bah. I wish I could find documentation on cairo compositor's plugins... | 02:04 |
| * dmcglone1 was just getting accustom to walking with a walker ;-) | 02:04 | |
| canthus13 | dmcglone1: Eh? I thought you were older than me... :/ | 02:05 |
| canthus13 | man page is useless... | 02:06 |
| dmcglone1 | I don't think I am, I needed the walker after my wife broke my legs for sitting on the computer all the time and not cutting the grass... | 02:06 |
| * dmcglone1 is 39, will be 40 in October | 02:06 | |
| canthus13 | Thought so. | 02:06 |
| canthus13 | About 3 years older. | 02:07 |
| dmcglone1 | Ah shux, I thought I was the youngest one here ;-/ | 02:07 |
| Unit193 | canthus13: I thought you were older... | 02:08 |
| dmcglone1 | Oh lord, I ju | 02:08 |
| dmcglone1 | grrrr | 02:08 |
| dmcglone1 | I just found out, I've got about 6 people on their way to visit :-/ | 02:08 |
| canthus13 | Unit193: Heh. | 02:09 |
| canthus13 | dmcglone1: Answer the door naked. they'll leave. | 02:09 |
| dmcglone1 | lol canthus | 02:09 |
| canthus13 | IRC: The last bastion of sound advice... | 02:09 |
| Unit193 | dmcglone1: It would work... | 02:09 |
| canthus13 | Unit193: How old did you think I am? | 02:09 |
| * canthus13 likes to think that he doesn't act his age... | 02:09 | |
| dmcglone1 | Looks like I'm gonna be DJ'ing tonight | 02:09 |
| Unit193 | canthus13: In the 40's (Maybe very early 50's) | 02:10 |
| Unit193 | ...you asked... | 02:10 |
| dmcglone1 | well canthus13 think about it, look where we are, so neither of us do ;-) | 02:10 |
| canthus13 | Geez. | 02:10 |
| canthus13 | dmcglone1: True.... | 02:10 |
| * Unit193 is also bad at guessing age... | 02:11 | |
| * canthus13 still has a good 3 years 'til the 11th anniversary of his 29th birthday. | 02:11 | |
| dmcglone1 | canthus13: we really need to grow up... LOL | 02:11 |
| canthus13 | dmcglone1: I refuse. | 02:11 |
| dmcglone1 | me too :-) | 02:11 |
| dmcglone1 | I guess we are going through our midlife crisis a tad bit early... ;-) | 02:12 |
| * canthus13 needs to find freakin' documentation for cairo plugins.. 20 freaking plugins, no docs. :/ | 02:12 | |
| canthus13 | skellat: what do *YOU* know about cairo-compmgr plugins? | 02:13 |
| skellat | Bupkis | 02:13 |
| skellat | Nada | 02:13 |
| skellat | Nothing | 02:13 |
| canthus13 | nuts. I'll still blame you for the lack of documentation. :( | 02:14 |
| skellat | That's okay. | 02:14 |
| dmcglone1 | Okie dokie guys, I gotta go for a while, they want to karaoke and I have to hook my computer up to the tv :-/ | 02:15 |
| dmcglone1 | I guess I'll hang out and pester everyone some other time.. LOL | 02:16 |
| canthus13 | Cheri703: Got pics from sully at Fort Polk... and eating a crawfish dinner. :) | 03:24 |
| Cheri703 | ha, nice | 03:25 |
| Unit193 | canthus13: Is the newist Dr Who TBC? | 03:25 |
| Unit193 | I would guess it's good... | 03:27 |
| canthus13 | Unit193: Haven't watched it yet.... Wife's doing homework and she'd kill me if I watch it without her. | 03:36 |
| Cheri703 | canthus13: you're a smart man... | 04:02 |
| Cheri703 | at least sometimes ;) | 04:02 |
| canthus13 | Cheri703: thpthpthpthp. | 04:02 |
| Cheri703 | happy wife happy life and all | 04:02 |
| canthus13 | Heh. | 04:02 |
| Cheri703 | my husband........has not entirely grasped this concept | 04:02 |
| canthus13 | Reminds me... I need to copy it to the media server. | 04:03 |
| * Cheri703 has read 3 books in 2 days...again | 04:03 | |
| Cheri703 | except these were on the nook \o/ | 04:03 |
| Cheri703 | I contemplated starting another, but am catching up on some online-ish things atm. I am still procrastinating that video project though :/ | 04:04 |
| canthus13 | Heh. | 04:04 |
| Cheri703 | I'm over it. I just don't want to deal with it anymore | 04:05 |
| Cheri703 | oh, here's a question that may save me some effort in actually *looking* | 04:05 |
| Cheri703 | do pretty much all modern dvd players play any type of burnable dvd? or are they still -r +r specific? | 04:05 |
| canthus13 | It's pretty much hit or miss iirc. | 04:07 |
| Cheri703 | :/ | 04:07 |
| Cheri703 | client wants these videos put on dvd so they can watch them, currently they're using their ps2 as a dvd player (non-slim), and I know *my* ps2 won't recognize burned disks at all | 04:07 |
| Cheri703 | and they said they may be buying a dvd player at some point in the future, so...it's pretty futile to put these on dvd, eh? | 04:08 |
| canthus13 | ...Prolly. | 04:08 |
| canthus13 | DVD players are dirt cheap, though. | 04:08 |
| Cheri703 | -_- | 04:10 |
| Cheri703 | this lady is NOT technologically inclined...at all | 04:10 |
| canthus13 | Ah. Might wanna make her a flip-book, then. | 04:10 |
| Cheri703 | I want to just give her the files and be done with it, but...bah | 04:10 |
| paultag | hey Cheri703 | 04:41 |
| paultag | Cheri703: I've been saving up and I think I'm doing the nook thing. Have you got yours? | 04:41 |
| paultag | also heyya canthus13 :) | 04:42 |
| Unit193 | ... | 04:42 |
| paultag | Unit193! :) | 04:42 |
| Unit193 | paultag: ;) | 04:42 |
| Cheri703 | yep | 04:45 |
| Cheri703 | sorry, was in the other room | 04:45 |
| Cheri703 | it's pretty sweet | 04:45 |
| Cheri703 | jesusfreke in #nookdevs has it booting from some other something already, he took his apart last night :) | 04:45 |
| Cheri703 | it's not *rooted* but it's progress | 04:45 |
| Cheri703 | paultag: ^^ | 04:45 |
| Cheri703 | I've read 3 books in under 20 hours, and that's including about 8 hours of sleep :) | 04:46 |
| Cheri703 | probably going to start another tonight... | 04:47 |
| paultag | Cheri703: np :) | 04:47 |
| paultag | Cheri703: nice!! :) | 04:47 |
| paultag | let me pop over | 04:47 |
| Cheri703 | he updated the nookdevs site with processor info about it | 04:48 |
| paultag | Cheri703: :) | 04:48 |
| paultag | Cheri703: I'll see if he says anything to that | 04:48 |
| Cheri703 | I'm really enjoying it | 04:48 |
| paultag | Cheri703: any downers about it (besides the lack of 3G) | 04:49 |
| skellat | Cheri703: Overall good time with the device so far? | 04:49 |
| paultag | heyya skellat | 04:49 |
| Cheri703 | uhm, has the crappy nook file navigation/sorting, though this one lets you browse by file, but other than that, nothing I've seen so far | 04:49 |
| Cheri703 | it is nice having multiple ways of changing pages | 04:49 |
| Cheri703 | tap, swipe, or hw buttons | 04:49 |
| paultag | mm? | 04:49 |
| paultag | ah, nice | 04:49 |
| Cheri703 | o/ skellat | 04:50 |
| Cheri703 | yeah, I am really liking it | 04:50 |
| paultag | Cheri703: I really want to be able to get it digesting RSS | 04:50 |
| paultag | if I can do that then I'm golden | 04:50 |
| Cheri703 | I think it probably can, probably a function of calibre (which, btw, there's a nice newer version that recognizes the new nook) | 04:50 |
| Cheri703 | you could join #calibre and/or look on their site if you have questions about getting that working with feeds | 04:51 |
| skellat | paultag: Use rawdog to glom the output of your feeds then convert the resultant HTML to whatever format you want | 04:51 |
| skellat | See, for example, http://erielookingproductions.info/Feeds.html | 04:51 |
| paultag | skellat: actually other way around | 04:51 |
| paultag | skellat: I have tons of raw data, I'm putting it into one RSS feed, then I want to digest that on a tablet | 04:51 |
| skellat | Hmm. | 04:52 |
| paultag | skellat: so I'm jacking data from all kinds of sources and digesting it into a format I want on a tablet like the nook :) | 04:52 |
| skellat | Yahoo! Pipes in the mix at all? | 04:52 |
| paultag | such as git repos, server jobs etc :) | 04:52 |
| paultag | skellat: nosir. Mostly home-brew | 04:52 |
| skellat | I'd still use rawdog to transmogrify the RSS into HTML which would be an intermediate step to converting to EPUB | 04:53 |
| paultag | mmhum | 04:53 |
| skellat | That's how Amazon's Digital Text Platform basically works as they want indy publishers to upload in HTML for them to transmogrify for Kindle usage | 04:53 |
| paultag | barf | 04:53 |
| paultag | that should be a local app | 04:54 |
| * skellat recognizes he is listed in the Kindle store in a few places | 04:54 | |
| paultag | sweet :) | 04:54 |
| Cheri703 | I just have the wifi turned off, because I am only loading stuff from the computer. also paultag, when you get it, go on the b&n site to delete the crappy sample books and such from your "account" and then refresh it | 04:54 |
| skellat | paultag: It definitely should be a local app. Considering the mix of what Amazon provides, especially with EC2, that's really not a high priority for them. | 04:54 |
| paultag | Cheri703: oh? | 04:54 |
| paultag | skellat: aye | 04:54 |
| Cheri703 | yeah, you have your "account" on the site, where you can manage books you've purchased from them, it comes preloaded with "samples" and you can't delete them locally | 04:55 |
| paultag | Cheri703: how's it sync with Ubuntu? | 04:55 |
| paultag | Cheri703: Ah, sweet. I see, cool | 04:55 |
| Cheri703 | fine, shows up as flash storage | 04:55 |
| paultag | so it's managed via browser, cool | 04:55 |
| paultag | Cheri703: hummmm | 04:55 |
| Cheri703 | books straight from b&n are | 04:55 |
| skellat | I'm curious if Banshee could plop a/v files on the Nook | 04:55 |
| Cheri703 | the newer calibre recognizes it at connection | 04:55 |
| Cheri703 | the new nook has no a/v capability | 04:56 |
| skellat | Crap | 04:56 |
| paultag | Cheri703: ah, what a bummer | 04:56 |
| * skellat puts on the private-practice evil librarian-type hat | 04:56 | |
| Cheri703 | not even audio, which the old one apparently had | 04:56 |
| paultag | Cheri703: crud. Now I'm wondering if a color is a better buy | 04:56 |
| Cheri703 | I'm sure you could store the files on there, but you can't play them | 04:56 |
| paultag | 3G is pretty critical | 04:56 |
| paultag | but I don't like the idea of a backlight | 04:56 |
| Cheri703 | color has no 3g either afaik | 04:56 |
| paultag | ach, really? | 04:57 |
| skellat | Way too many blue sky thinkers in the publishing biz have claimed that a/v content in ebooks was essential. I'm shocked that Barnes & Noble produced effectively a tablet computer without a/v capability instead of a futuristic e-reader | 04:57 |
| Cheri703 | yup | 04:57 |
| Cheri703 | kindle and old nook have 3g | 04:57 |
| Cheri703 | but kindle has no epub | 04:57 |
| Cheri703 | which was a must for me | 04:57 |
| skellat | Until June 30th, 3G remains useless here in Ashtabula County | 04:58 |
| Cheri703 | skellat: this thing is pretty straightforward E READER, nothing else | 04:58 |
| Cheri703 | which is fine by me | 04:58 |
| skellat | Cheri703: How much did it cost? | 04:58 |
| Cheri703 | $140+tax | 04:58 |
| skellat | Yikes | 04:59 |
| paultag | humm. | 04:59 |
| canthus13 | paultag: Oh Hi. | 04:59 |
| paultag | skellat: that's not too bad for a full android platform | 04:59 |
| paultag | heyya canthus13 | 04:59 |
| skellat | paultag: But as Cheri703 noted, it is an ereader only | 04:59 |
| Cheri703 | well, it runs android 2.1 | 04:59 |
| Cheri703 | just e-ink screen and no audio support | 05:00 |
| paultag | skellat: until you hack it | 05:00 |
| Cheri703 | so you could actually run android apps, just have to be aware of e-ink limitations | 05:00 |
| paultag | Cheri703: that's not a problem if I write the app for it | 05:00 |
| Cheri703 | :) | 05:00 |
| skellat | paultag: For that cost I could pick up ten hardbacks for the collection here | 05:00 |
| paultag | skellat: yeah, but I need a book that can stay updated with info on all my F/OSS projects | 05:01 |
| Cheri703 | I'm a pretty fast reader, so libraries are a HUGE hassle for me...I'm in there every few days returning/restocking, so I don't read...I ENJOY reading, but it's a big hassle. so this thing is going to be awesome for me :) and as soon as I can get them formatted in a happier way, I will be able to study cert manuals and such (the pdf conversion didn't go as smoothly as hoped) | 05:01 |
| paultag | Cheri703: can it not do PDFs OTB? | 05:02 |
| Cheri703 | so, while one *could* purchase many physical books for the same price, *for me* this is a WAY better option | 05:02 |
| Cheri703 | yeah, but displaying them and stuff...I'm still toying with straight pdf vs converted to epub | 05:02 |
| skellat | Cheri703: I know. | 05:02 |
| Cheri703 | it depends on the file | 05:02 |
| Cheri703 | some show up better than others | 05:02 |
| Unit193 | A bluescreen on shutdown... Nice! | 05:03 |
| paultag | Cheri703: any rhyme or reason?\ | 05:03 |
| Cheri703 | just based on original format of the pdf | 05:04 |
| skellat | Unit193: What bluescreened? | 05:04 |
| Cheri703 | it depends on how the creator did things paultag | 05:04 |
| paultag | humm | 05:04 |
| skellat | Cheri703 & paultag: Not all PDFs are the same. Having them tagged makes reflowing better. LibreOffice allows that easily on export to PDF. | 05:04 |
| Cheri703 | yeah | 05:04 |
| Unit193 | skellat: Some crappy OS :P | 05:05 |
| Cheri703 | but if you're....acquiring a pdf of a book, then sometimes they are unfriendly | 05:05 |
| paultag | Cheri703: I wonder if I can find an android tablet | 05:05 |
| skellat | Unit193: At least it isn't the Yellow Screen of Death we get from Time Warner Cable when a channel feed suddenly drops out | 05:05 |
| paultag | under 300 bucks | 05:05 |
| Cheri703 | nook color | 05:06 |
| paultag | Cheri703: IIRC that hardware is a abit old | 05:06 |
| Cheri703 | I just didn't want backlight :) | 05:06 |
| Cheri703 | I dunno | 05:06 |
| Cheri703 | but it's cheap | 05:06 |
| paultag | true, I don't like backlight | 05:06 |
| paultag | Cheri703: aye | 05:06 |
| paultag | ugh, what a decision | 05:06 |
| paultag | I wonder if it has the same SD setup as the original | 05:07 |
| Cheri703 | paultag: if you are willing to wait til they get a STABLE root/alternate rom, then I will test whatever you come up with, as long as you promise that if it gets screwed up, you'll replace it and you can have this one :) | 05:07 |
| Cheri703 | what do you mean? | 05:07 |
| paultag | Cheri703: the old nooks had a SD card on the board it's self as well as the external one | 05:08 |
| Cheri703 | no, when the guy opened it up, it's a 2gb flash chip right on the board | 05:08 |
| paultag | Cheri703: awesome!! What format? | 05:09 |
| Cheri703 | http://nookdevs.com/Nook_Simple_Touch | 05:09 |
| Cheri703 | that's as much as he said last night (basically) | 05:09 |
| paultag | Cheri703: ah bummer it's melted in | 05:10 |
| Cheri703 | yeah, sorry, that was what I meant | 05:10 |
| paultag | humm | 05:10 |
| paultag | I wonder if he has a photo | 05:10 |
| Cheri703 | ask him, he replied in #nookdevs, that's the guy :) | 05:10 |
| paultag | if it's a sane format a breakout board will be easy to wire up | 05:10 |
| paultag | Cheri703: ty :) | 05:10 |
| Cheri703 | yup :) | 05:11 |
| skellat | I'm shuffling off to bed. Goodnight y'all. To get any audio in to the podcast, I need it before 6 PM or so Sunday. All you have to do is call 702-714-0397 and Google Voice handles the rest. The machine-generated transcripts are usually hilarious by themselves. ReLoCo updates are especially sought as to what's going on across the state... | 05:17 |
| paultag | night skrappjaw | 05:18 |
| paultag | alright, I'm off too | 05:28 |
| paultag | 'night all | 05:28 |
| Unit193 | Adios! | 05:28 |
| dmcglone1 | Whew what a night :-/ | 05:31 |
| canthus13 | dmcglone1: you're awake?? Aren't you up waaaaaaaay past your bedtime? | 05:32 |
| dmcglone1 | LOL canthus13 everyone just left my house | 05:33 |
| Unit193 | canthus13: I thought it was 11 too... | 05:33 |
| Unit193 | dmcglone1: Did you moon them? | 05:33 |
| canthus13 | dmcglone1: I thought you turned into a pumpkin or passed out where you stood or something. | 05:33 |
| dmcglone1 | I usually get in bed and watch tv till about 1 or 2 am | 05:33 |
| dmcglone1 | LOL | 05:33 |
| dmcglone1 | I usually come in here a while before I hit the hay, and even though tonight is a later night, I don't break my routine.. LOL | 05:34 |
| dmcglone1 | everyone came over unexpectedly | 05:35 |
| Unit193 | Where is jgould anyway? He's part of the late night crew... | 05:35 |
| dmcglone1 | while they were singing karaoke, I thought about sneaking in the computer room and hanging out, but I didn't want to be rude :-/ | 05:36 |
| * Unit193 would have do it... | 05:36 | |
| dmcglone1 | well I'm wide awake thats for sure | 05:37 |
| dmcglone1 | It's more exciting hanging in here talking to myself than listening them howl on a microphone... LOL | 05:38 |
| dmcglone1 | Anybody ever heard of the band DC Talk? | 05:39 |
| Unit193 | Use cotton | 05:39 |
| Unit193 | dmcglone1: Yeah | 05:39 |
| dmcglone1 | Rick May of DC talk is my cousin | 05:40 |
| dmcglone1 | thats why there's so much freakin music around here all the time | 05:41 |
| dmcglone1 | No freakin wonder I'm deaf ;-) | 05:41 |
| dmcglone1 | gonna get me so cereal. I eat breakfast before I go to bed so I don't have to do it in the morning. | 05:52 |
| Unit193 | But then you don't get to eat in the morning... | 05:52 |
| dmcglone1 | I hate eating in the morning | 05:54 |
| dmcglone1 | too tired, too lazy and it makes me sick | 05:54 |
| Unit193 | But there is no food... | 05:55 |
| dmcglone1 | I don't know why, but i've always ate cereal before bed | 05:55 |
| dmcglone1 | I guess you could say it's my midnight snack | 05:55 |
| Unit193 | I eat at night too, but I also eat in the morning... | 05:56 |
| dmcglone1 | I have never in as long as I can remember eating in the morning | 05:56 |
| canthus13 | Wow... I'm listening to the entire Nirvana Nevermind album for the first time in probably 15 years. | 05:59 |
| dmcglone1 | cool, I haven't heard them in ages either | 06:00 |
| dmcglone1 | canthus13: like slipknot? | 06:01 |
| dmcglone1 | Dang that got me thinking of all that old school music | 06:03 |
| dmcglone1 | Suicidal Tendencies "you can't bring me down" | 06:03 |
| canthus13 | dmcglone1: slipknot? nah.. ST rocked, tough. :) | 06:04 |
| dmcglone1 | yeah ST. remember "SOD" stormtroopers of death? or "MOD" Method of destrucâ€tion? | 06:05 |
| canthus13 | MOD yes. SOD no. | 06:06 |
| dmcglone1 | bad ass bands! | 06:06 |
| dmcglone1 | RUN DMC? | 06:07 |
| dmcglone1 | Damn man how I miss High School now | 06:08 |
| canthus13 | Heh. | 06:15 |
| * canthus13 is off to bed... weird to be hitting the sack before dmcglone. | 06:15 | |
| Unit193 | Heh | 06:16 |
| Unit193 | He's on after 1am!! | 06:16 |
| canthus13 | Unit193: I don't think it's really him. | 06:16 |
| canthus13 | Anway... 'nite. | 06:16 |
| Unit193 | canthus13: You may be on to something! | 06:17 |
| Unit193 | Have a good one! | 06:17 |
| canthus13 | I will. No kids. :) | 06:17 |
| dmcglone1 | LOL | 06:17 |
| Unit193 | Why the heck they don't have plowshare in the repos (Even GetDeb) I will never know... | 06:18 |
| dmcglone1 | who knows when I'll decide to hit the hay tonight, but I'm sensing it'll be soon. | 06:18 |
| dmcglone1 | what is plowshare? | 06:18 |
| Unit193 | Cheri703 is gone, jgould is MIA and canthus13 is down for the night | 06:19 |
| Cheri703 | hmm? | 06:19 |
| Unit193 | http://code.google.com/p/plowshare/ | 06:19 |
| Unit193 | Cheri703 isn't gone... | 06:19 |
| * Cheri703 is reading | 06:19 | |
| Cheri703 | y'know, books n stuff | 06:19 |
| Cheri703 | \o/ for nook! | 06:20 |
| Unit193 | She has DND on... | 06:20 |
| Unit193 | How much llike a book is it? | 06:20 |
| Cheri703 | dnd? | 06:20 |
| Cheri703 | reading quality: very much, convenience? way better | 06:20 |
| Unit193 | Do Not Disturb | 06:21 |
| dmcglone1 | I hardly ever read because when I do, I can't set it down and it takes my whole day and night | 06:21 |
| Cheri703 | dmcglone1: I've started on book 4 since yesterday around 10pm... | 06:21 |
| Cheri703 | Unit193: I have no knowledge of having that on..maybe because I was idle? | 06:21 |
| dmcglone1 | it's hard to set em down once you get going isn't it | 06:21 |
| Cheri703 | yup | 06:22 |
| Unit193 | Cheri703: I was just saying that you did, nothing was telling me that | 06:22 |
| dmcglone1 | John Grisham is my favorite author | 06:22 |
| Cheri703 | ah | 06:22 |
| Unit193 | dmcglone1: Did you have a look? | 06:23 |
| Cheri703 | ping me if you need me :) | 06:23 |
| dmcglone1 | the file sharing with from the command line? | 06:27 |
| dmcglone1 | yeah | 06:27 |
| dmcglone1 | with all the recent lawsuits and stuff, I'm afraid to use file sharing | 06:27 |
| Unit193 | It downloads from things like megaupload, rapidshare, 4shared, mediafire (That doesn't have to be illegal) | 06:29 |
| dmcglone1 | Limewire did the same thing and they just recently got shut down | 06:30 |
| Unit193 | Those are hosting sites, LimeWire was a P2P client... | 06:33 |
| dmcglone1 | Ah yes, very true | 06:34 |
| Unit193 | ...and it didn't run on linux (FrostWire does) | 06:36 |
| Unit193 | :D | 06:37 |
| dmcglone1 | I used Limewire on linux exclusivly | 06:38 |
| dmcglone1 | It was in the repos actually | 06:38 |
| dmcglone1 | Ok I've got to lay down. Back is aching | 06:40 |
| dmcglone1 | So I'm out for the night | 06:41 |
| dmcglone1 | G'night all | 06:41 |
| Unit193 | I didn' think it was... Ah well! | 06:45 |
| dmcglone | http://www.cnn.com/2011/TECH/web/06/03/sony.pictures.hacked.mashable/index.html | 13:02 |
| paultag | Cheri703: I got a Nook STR | 17:20 |
| Cheri703 | \o/ | 17:21 |
| paultag | Cheri703: if you want to make friends, I'm my IRC name @gmail | 17:21 |
| Cheri703 | what do you think of it? | 17:21 |
| Cheri703 | ok, I'm the same :) | 17:21 |
| Cheri703 | I don't have the social stuff turned on at the moment, but next time I turn on wifi I will :) | 17:21 |
| Cheri703 | get the newest version of calibre, from the site | 17:21 |
| Cheri703 | use the binary thinger | 17:22 |
| paultag | Cheri703: it's pretty cool | 17:36 |
| paultag | Cheri703: I dig | 17:36 |
| canthus13 | Unit193: Bah. If I'm gonna spin my own openbox/Ubuntu ISO, I've gotta go back and figure out what I installed manually. :( | 17:50 |
| Cheri703 | finished my book, now have to clean living room...real live client coming over later! | 17:55 |
| Unit193 | canthus13: Sweet! That's the hard part (I would still have the tars in random spots) | 17:57 |
| * canthus13 really needs to set up a test system to do this. :/ | 17:59 | |
| Unit193 | canthus13: I would really try that remix (If not on hardware, a VM) | 18:03 |
| canthus13 | :D | 18:06 |
| Unit193 | canthus13: How much RAM is it using on startup? | 18:31 |
| canthus13 | ~6% of 4GB. | 18:32 |
| paultag | Cheri703: what's the name of the local app for the nook? I want to purge out those default books :) | 19:12 |
| Cheri703 | oh, you have to do that from the website: nook.com and log in using the stuff you put in when you registered | 19:12 |
| paultag | Cheri703: thanks :0 | 19:12 |
| paultag | sorry, :) * | 19:12 |
| Cheri703 | and calibre is the computer app to load stuff | 19:12 |
| Cheri703 | but the version in the repos is older | 19:13 |
| Cheri703 | so get it from their site, and it will recognize it | 19:13 |
| paultag | Cheri703: thanks :) | 19:13 |
| Cheri703 | yep | 19:13 |
| paultag | Cheri703: I'll file a bug with Debian letting them know it's out of date and try and sync it | 19:14 |
| Cheri703 | well, I'm on 10.10 | 19:14 |
| paultag | Cheri703: yeah, but we pull from Debian | 19:14 |
| Cheri703 | kk | 19:14 |
| Cheri703 | the newest version does run on 10.10 fine, just...not in the repo :/ | 19:14 |
| * Unit193 adds getdeb because Ubuntu updates too slow | 19:15 | |
| paultag | booo | 19:15 |
| paultag | unsupported third partyyy | 19:15 |
| Unit193 | boooo! Programs last updated 3 years ago or not in the repo at all! | 19:15 |
| paultag | Cheri703: what's your version? | 19:16 |
| paultag | Unit193: then file a bug and someone will include it | 19:16 |
| paultag | Unit193: or update it | 19:16 |
| paultag | Unit193: it's really really not that hard | 19:16 |
| Unit193 | paultag: Packaging isn't easy... | 19:16 |
| paultag | Cheri703: I see 0.8.2+dfsg-1 | 19:16 |
| paultag | Unit193: it is, I do it. | 19:16 |
| Cheri703 | the version I got from the site is 0.8.4, version in the repo is 0.7.18 | 19:17 |
| paultag | Cheri703: 11.04 will have the new copy already :) | 19:17 |
| Cheri703 | on 10.10 | 19:17 |
| Cheri703 | yeah, probably | 19:17 |
| paultag | Cheri703: you can dget the deb if you'd like | 19:17 |
| Cheri703 | there were dependency things | 19:17 |
| paultag | i'm doing that :) | 19:17 |
| Cheri703 | I tried that | 19:17 |
| Cheri703 | a bunch of python dependencies | 19:17 |
| paultag | Cheri703: I'll backport it to my PPA | 19:17 |
| Cheri703 | and some of them said they'd break things if I updated them | 19:18 |
| paultag | hehe | 19:18 |
| Cheri703 | I tried using a different ppa and it didn't even show up in synaptic or anything, it was supposed to be 0.8.2 | 19:18 |
| Cheri703 | for maveric | 19:18 |
| Cheri703 | k | 19:18 |
| paultag | Cheri703: I'm backporting to natty. I'll see about maverick while I'm at it | 19:18 |
| Cheri703 | this was where I tried to get it: https://launchpad.net/~n-muench/+archive/calibre/+packages | 19:19 |
| Cheri703 | I just did the binary install from the calibre site and it works fine | 19:19 |
| paultag | yeah I guess build-deps are iffy | 19:22 |
| Cheri703 | yeah :/ | 19:22 |
| paultag | Cheri703: it's not showing my bousers manual on it | 19:30 |
| paultag | sed s/bo//g | 19:30 |
| Cheri703 | your what user manual? | 19:30 |
| paultag | Cheri703: the one that comes on there | 19:30 |
| paultag | Cheri703: I don't want it :) | 19:30 |
| Cheri703 | I got bo {symbol box} {symbol box} users manual | 19:30 |
| Cheri703 | oh, yeah, I don't know how to get rid of those :/ | 19:30 |
| paultag | dang | 19:31 |
| paultag | 'bout to load up some PDFs and test | 19:39 |
| jgould | So, i'm bored and am thinking about trying Debian... | 22:58 |
| skellat | Why? | 23:00 |
| jgould | because I'm bored | 23:01 |
| canthus13 | jgould: that'll likely give you more headaches than ubuntu as far as sane defaults go. | 23:06 |
| jgould | It won't boot on the Mini without some tweaking... | 23:07 |
| canthus13 | If you're looking for something to fight with, it should suit your purposes. :) | 23:22 |
| skrappjaw | Debian is different | 23:22 |
| skrappjaw | i should say it is different in a sense if you started with ubuntu. Kindof a pain in the butt at first for me. | 23:24 |
| skrappjaw | Nautilus doesnt like to run as root for me on debian6. | 23:25 |
| skrappjaw | I guess as I get better hardware and more experience i'll be ok with it. | 23:26 |
| canthus13 | Watch out... 'root' is a dirty word around ubuntu folks. | 23:27 |
| * skrappjaw isnt politically correct. | 23:28 | |
| skrappjaw | :P | 23:28 |
| skrappjaw | been thinking about enabling root usr in my ubuntu | 23:28 |
| * jgould looks into a custom ROM or rooting his new phone already... | 23:32 | |
| canthus13 | jgould: geek. | 23:33 |
| canthus13 | jgould: yer a bit slow, though... I'd have rooted it in the first 10 minutes. :) | 23:34 |
| jgould | I have to figure out how to root this phone, and I want a copy of the stock ROM before I load a custom... | 23:38 |
| canthus13 | jgould: If I'm going to screw with stuff like that, I get the protection plan. If I screw it up, I step on it and return it. :) | 23:43 |
| jgould | I should be able to load a diffrent ROM if I fucking want. (or load the Amazon App Store) if I want it (AT&T blocks the install of it...) | 23:44 |
| jgould | Don't the phone vendors have to release the ROM's under the GPL? | 23:49 |
| canthus13 | Don't think so. | 23:52 |
| canthus13 | The ROMs aren't GPL.. Just the Android code. | 23:52 |
| canthus13 | and the Android code is publicly available. | 23:53 |
| jgould | So how the hell do people get the Roms that they install (or the stock roms from thier devices?) | 23:54 |
