[01:37] <ChinnoDog> Is there any way to watch Netflix streaming video without a virtual machine running Windows?
[01:38] <BeckySanderlin_x> I dont netflix. so i cant help you
[01:38] <mikedep334> ChinnoDog, sadly I doubt moonlight can work on the netflix website
[01:38] <mikedep334> maybe if boxee found a way in their linux distro
[01:38] <mikedep334> you could replicate it

[01:39] <BeckySanderlin_x> ChinnoDog, what type of movies do you netflix?
[01:39] <mikedep334> hmm, moonlight can't do it because it doesn't support DRM
[01:54] <ChinnoDog> BeckySanderlin_x: all sorts. The library is pretty big. When my xbox was set up I watched movies on it frequently
[01:54] <ChinnoDog> mikedep334: So, VM only? :-(
[01:55] <BeckySanderlin_x> hmm
[01:55] <mikedep334> ChinnoDog, maybe boxee box's variant of ubuntu has something
[01:56] <pleia2> ChinnoDog: I'm just waiting for Chrome to support netflix
[01:57] <pleia2> (there are rumors of a netflix version for html5 in chrome)
[01:57] <ChinnoDog> I saw the rumor but I want to watch TV now, not in the unforseen future
[01:57] <ChinnoDog> Ok, forgive my ignorance.. what exactly is boxee?
[01:57] <pleia2> I watch netflix on my phone
[01:58] <pleia2> and my tv
[01:58] <pleia2> both of which run linux kernels, which makes me kind of sad that it doesn't work on my desktop :)
[01:58] <ChinnoDog> Where do you get the streaming Netflix app?
[01:58] <ChinnoDog> (for your phone)
[01:58] <pleia2> android store
[01:58] <pleia2> market
[01:58] <pleia2> whatever it is
[01:58] <pleia2> just searched for netflix
[01:58] <ChinnoDog> I searched for "netflix" but there aren't any official apps, and the rest look like queue managers
[01:58] <pleia2> came out last month
[01:59] <pleia2> https://market.android.com/details?id=com.netflix.mediaclient&hl=en
[02:00] <pleia2> what version of android does your phone run?
[02:00] <ChinnoDog> Not compatible with my phone :0
[02:00] <pleia2> aw
[02:00] <ChinnoDog> It runs 2.3 now
[02:01] <ChinnoDog> Anyway, back to watching it on my Ubuntu desktop... Boxee? What is it?
[02:01] <ChinnoDog> PennBot: boxee?
[02:01] <PennBot> Wish I knew!
[02:02] <pleia2> http://www.boxee.tv/
[02:02] <PennBot> Title: Boxee - Watch Movies, TV Shows and clips from the Internet on your TV. (at www.boxee.tv)
[02:02] <pleia2> it's a device
[02:02] <pleia2> you can buy them, or make them with hardware you buy
[02:02] <ChinnoDog> I'm reading that. But, there is also a pic of a phone with the boxee logo on it
[02:05] <ChinnoDog> I could build an ultra low footprint Windows VM for watching Netflix but that seems silly
[02:06] <ChinnoDog> oh. Well, my monitor has a VGA cable on it. I could just be lazy and plug the VGA cable into my laptop and play movies from there
[02:07] <ChinnoDog> lazy++
[02:07] <ChinnoDog> That will be good for now.
[02:10] <ChinnoDog> need food
[02:10]  * ChinnoDog ponders options
[02:13] <teddy-dbear> v/me has chocolate :-[
[02:14] <teddy-dbear> opps
[02:14]  * teddy-dbear has chocolate :-[
[02:14] <teddy-dbear> that's better
[02:16] <ChinnoDog> I have that too but it isn't dinner
[02:17] <teddy-dbear> it is for me! :-D
[10:37] <InHisName> Not dinner time anymore
[10:39] <rmg51> almost breakfast time
[11:00] <JonathanD> Morning.
[11:16] <InHisName> Now, its breakfast time, JonathanD has said Morning.
[11:16] <JonathanD> :)
[11:23] <rmg51> morning JonathanD
[11:23] <rmg51> breakfast time
[11:23] <JonathanD> morning rmg51
[11:25] <rmg51> o/
[12:47] <waltman> JonathanD: I need to catch a 7:37 AM train tomorrow morning :(
[12:50] <waltman> Amazingly, according to Septa's schedule, they actually run trains at that hour!
[12:53] <jthan> Morning everyone
[12:59] <JonathanD> waltman: heh :)
[13:07] <waltman> JonathanD: I mean, who knew?
[13:39] <InHisName> Breakfast DONE ! and it is still such a fine morning, been outside yet to yenjoy?
[14:03] <n2diy> I prefer to get my hard drives curbside, the're free.
[14:09] <andrew> wootoff
[14:14] <n2diy> Looks interesting, thanks.
[14:14] <JonathanD> I should get that TV. WOuld make an ok monitor :)
[14:21] <n2diy> I haven't hooked up a computer to a TV since my Commodore 64 days, what would you need to use that TV as a monitor?
[14:52] <JonathanD> n2diy: why not?
[14:52] <JonathanD> LCD TVs make perfectly acceptable monitors.
[14:55] <InHisName> Hmmmm, 60" monitor !
[14:56] <andrew> 108" or bust
[15:25] <n2diy> JonathanD, because I haven't owned a TV since 2001. What would you need to hook up a TV to a computer now a days?
[15:25] <JonathanD> n2diy: they aren't just TVs anymore.
[15:26] <JonathanD> It's not like the old days, where you did some sort of conversion to RCA or Svid
[15:26] <JonathanD> n2diy: The connection is over VGA. It's a "real monitor"
[15:27] <n2diy> JonathanD, so, the TV would have an VGA connector on it, or SVGA?
[15:29] <JonathanD> 15 pin SVGA.
[15:30] <JonathanD> You can then use it at it's native resolution (or any other supported res) as a normal monitor.
[15:31] <n2diy> JonathanD, Is that a D connector, or the round, yellow PS2 style connector?
[15:31] <JonathanD> n2diy: thats the blue D connector.
[15:31] <JonathanD> same as any monitor.
[15:32] <JonathanD> The other you are thinking of is svideo, which is much lower quality output.
[15:33] <n2diy> JonathanD, This is a cool, I'll have to look into it, I'm setting up a computer for my landlord, and he has bad eyesight, so I'm sure he'd rather use is TV than any monitor.
[15:33] <n2diy> is/his
[15:43] <JonathanD> if the TV is suitable, it may work for you.
[16:25] <rhpot1991> pleia2: thanks for the help the other day
[16:26] <pleia2> sure thing
[16:34] <waltman> pleia2: Did you see that the Philadelphia Zoo has BABY VAMPIRE BATS?

[16:35] <PennBot> Title: I Vant Them! Baby Vampire Bats! - ZooBorns (at www.zooborns.com)
[16:36] <pleia2> I did!
[16:36] <pleia2> so cute :)
[16:36] <waltman> tiny little fangs!
[16:36] <pleia2> for drinking blood!
[16:36] <pleia2> (and momma bat milk)
[16:37] <waltman> It's been too long since I've been to the zoo :(
[16:38] <waltman> This time of year I see the Zoo Balloon every morning on my way in on the train
[16:42] <pleia2> it's a good zoo, they put in a new big cats exhibit a few years ago that's quite nice
[16:42] <pleia2> no more elephants though :(
[16:43] <waltman> :(
[16:43] <pleia2> sf zoo doesn't have elephants anymore either, have to go to oakland for them
[16:44] <pleia2> turns out they don't do very well in small enclosures, so zoos which are keeping their elephants have had to invest a lot in upgrading their homes
[16:44] <waltman> Wow, not only two baseball teams, but two zoos, too?
[16:45] <pleia2> yeah!
[16:45] <pleia2> I haven't been to the oakland zoo yet
[16:45] <pleia2> but I am going to an A's game tomorrow evening :)
[16:45] <waltman> Yay!
[16:47] <waltman> (even if it is just the Royals...)
[17:01] <pleia2> the best A's game I went to was when they were playing the mariners :)
[17:02] <pleia2> before Ken Griffey, Jr retired!
