snap-lIs there something special about the iPad charger over just getting an iPhone sync cable?01:27
snap-lor is it that AC->USB converter?01:28
jrwrenbrousch: sounds cool, how is the perf?01:45
brouschjrwren: it seems good. it's hard to compare objectively since i last used this laptop about 9 months ago with ubuntu 10.04. now i'm running 11.04 after using my faster MBP for 9 months01:46
brouschit seems to bog down less while running big jobs01:46
brouschis that the hard drive or linux improvements? i don't know01:47
rick_h_always say the hardware, so you can order more :)01:47
snap-lboth01:47
brouschfor instance, i was copying a few GB of photos over my 802.11n wifi while importing 80,000 photos from another part of the hard disk, and it was still perfectly responsive01:48
brouschwell this laptop is maxed out on ram, so not much more to order01:48
snap-lnew lappy01:49
jjessesnap-l ipad will only charged connected to an apple laptop01:50
brouschi need to sell off 2 or 3 others first ;)01:50
jjessewont charge connected to a non apple device01:50
brouschgo down to the apple store and plug in01:51
jjesseevery time i need an charge; 001:51
brouschonce a week?01:51
rick_h_well they did say you could use the apple store wireless for download updates and such01:52
jjesseyeah tahts too much01:52
rick_h_why not charging?01:52
brouschcome on. you live like 10mins away from it01:56
snap-ljjesse: You've got to be fucking kidding me01:56
brouschhm, does the apple laptop have to be on to charge from it?01:56
brouschi have one that won't boot01:57
snap-ljjesse: They give you a freaking AC adapter for the iPhone to charge it via the sync cable01:57
brousch3yr old + milk incident01:57
jjessei think it does to be online01:57
snap-ljjesse: That makes no sense. iPads work with Windows, no?01:58
jjesseyes but don't charge on a non mac hardware01:58
snap-lIf thats true, then Apple will never sell me an iPad01:58
jjessei plug my laptop into either a linux box or a windows box and no charge01:59
jjessemac and get a charge01:59
jjesseno clue why01:59
jrwrenbrousch: any form of wifi is so slow you can ignore it on actually taxing any modern (10yrs) disk.02:00
brouschright now i'm regenerating 32k thumbnails and it's slowed a little bit02:01
jrwrenits just plain false.02:01
jrwreni charge my iphone (small ipad) form lots of devices.02:01
brouschcpu is at 80% though02:01
jrwrenbut it does require enough power from the usb port. not just any port will do02:01
jjessejrwren that might be but i get a notice  on my ipad that it is not charging02:01
jjesseon all my usb ports on my laptop02:01
jrwrensounds like a shitty laptop :)02:02
jjesseprobablly02:02
jrwrenanyone good with xlinq?02:44
jrwreni'm trying to select the link node from rss where the title node starts with something.02:44
jrwrenxpath to the title node is easy, but how do I get the link node where the title matches?02:44
jrwrenfor the record...  "//channel/item/title[starts-with(.,'SOMETEXT')]/parent::item/link"02:52
jrwrenxgrep is pretty bad ass.02:52
gpplA iPad requires 10 volts of USB power to charge. Most computer usb ports only give 5. It's not your laptop.02:53
jjessedoes a mac usb port provde more?  seems a buddy of mine charges his w/ his macbook02:53
gpplI'm not sure02:54
gppli just remember reading that a few weeks ago02:54
gpplaccording to a quick google search newer macs have higher powered usb ports02:56
gpplso yes02:56
gpplhere's an apple support article about higher power charging: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4049?viewlocale=en_US02:57
jrwrenoh wow. that is seriously messed up since USB spec is 5V not 10V02:57
gppli got it messed up02:58
jjessenew charge on the way from amazon02:58
jrwrenhttps://discussions.apple.com/thread/2504985?start=0&tstart=0    more crazy info02:58
gpplWould a iPad charger charge my iPod touch faster then?02:59
jjessei bet it would?03:10

rick_h_just miserale enough to not like anything12:46
brouschlovely12:47
rick_h_yea, like you said, <3 vacation, so full of relaxing and rest and sleeping in...not12:47
snap-lGood morning12:56
brouschif it makes you feel better, our son has started sleeping in to 6:05AM now. however the dog has decided she prefers 5:45 so she starts barking at that time13:03
WolfgerMan, you guys almost make me glad to not take vacation...13:07
brouschyou get to work in exotic locales. every day is a vacation for you13:07
WolfgerWooo. Exotic Dundee, MI.13:11
brouschdundee? that's like visiting australia!13:16
snap-lDundee is a total vacation spot13:26
WolfgerIf you're an avid hunter and fisher13:27
* Wolfger is neither13:27
Wolfgeroh, I guess race fans like to come here too... The hotel is always packed on a race weekend.13:28
Wolfger:-p13:28
snap-lSO you can get your fill of MIRNFs13:30
snap-lMothers I'd Rather Not ...13:30
WolfgerLOL13:30
snap-lHuurrah, it's a morning conference call16:08
snap-lbrousch: I was going to ask if the interview had aired16:54
brouschheh, last thursday16:54
brouschit went well!16:54
snap-lAwesome17:00
snap-lI've downloaded it, and will have to hear it at some point. ;)17:01
snap-lhttp://lifehacker.com/5815715/how-to-build-a-hackintosh-mini-for-less-than-60018:00
snap-lI love how much effort this is just to get Mac OSX on non-mac hardware18:00
brouschheh18:01
brouschprobably half-working too18:01
snap-lWell, it's Lifehacker, so it'll work for about 5 days after the article posts. ;)18:01
snap-lWell, this is great. Got a book back from a buyer in worse condition than I sent it.18:45
snap-lHurray.18:45
brouschprobably swapped your nice book for their crappy one and sent you back the crappy one18:46
snap-lyeah, I'm a little pissed18:46
snap-lFunny thing was I was having a little seller-regret when selling it18:47
snap-land was half-tempted to not ship it to him18:47
snap-lShould have listened to myself18:47
krondorpower regression in 2.6.38?  interesting article despite the horrible popover ads http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=linux_2638_aspm&num=118:48
brouschfix it!18:49
Wolfgersnap-l: You should have made some sort of mark in the book to verify he returned the one you sent.19:12
snap-lI didn't think that he would be returning it19:15
Wolfger"Be prepared" :-)19:15
snap-lbah19:15
brouschnow that you've lost all faith in the honest morals of mankind, you'll think ahead19:16
Wolfgersomething obscure and harmless, like "on page 133 of every book I will turn one sentence into two by inserting an extra period".19:17
WolfgerJust do that to every book you sell. They'll never notice it if they're scammers, and it won't ruin the book either.19:17
Wolfgersnap-l: If you could prove they scammed you, maybe you could flog them... ;-)19:34
brouschwe could drive out there and demand he rectify the situation ala Big Bang Theory19:34
brouschwho's our Penny?19:35
WolfgerLOL19:37
Wolfger*knocknocknock* gamerchick02 *knocknocknock* gamerchick02 *knocknocknock* gamerchick0219:37
gamerchick02hello, Wolfger.19:37
gamerchick02what's up?19:37
Wolfger^^^19:38
gamerchick02i'm listening to Linux Outlaws. :)19:38
Wolfgerbrousch wanted to know who our "Penny" was for retribution purposes.19:38
WolfgerI was nominating you.19:39
gamerchick02Penny? huh?19:39
Wolfger:-/19:39
gamerchick02are you talking about Big Bang Theory? I don't watch that show...19:39
WolfgerSeriously?19:39
gamerchick02yes.19:39
Wolfgeromgwtfbbq19:39
gamerchick02i probably should put them in my netflix queue.19:39
WolfgerOK.19:39
gamerchick02i've got so many other things to watch though...19:40
snap-lJoDee's watched Big Bang Theory19:40
snap-lI personally don't have the attention span to handle that show for any length of time19:40
gamerchick02well, i do watch the IT Crowd.19:41
WolfgerWow. I didn't think I knew anybody who didn't watch, aside from my friends who don't have a TV in their living room...19:41
WolfgerEven my sis-in-law watches BBT, and she's very non-geek.19:42
WolfgerThis is kinda like that moment growing up where I realized not all my friends believed in Santa Claus.19:43
gamerchick02ah. i'm not generally one for US TV comedies. well, since the 80s and early 90s.19:43
WolfgerIt's just inconceivable19:43
snap-lWolfger: Frankly, it's because I realize I have better things to do about 5 minutes into the show19:43
Wolfgerblasphemer19:43
snap-lI mean, yeah, there's a lot of geek fan-service in there, but it's not enough to keep me watching19:43
gamerchick02i might add it to my netflix.19:44
brouschWolfger: wtf. i thought everyone watched that show19:44
brouschit probably hits home a bit too hard for snap-l19:45
snap-lbrousch: I mean, it can be funny, but I really couldn't care less about the characters.19:46
snap-lAnd I've watched every second of the IT Crowd on Netflix19:46
brouschi do not watch that show19:46
snap-lI find the IT crowd to be much more enjoyable19:48
brouschi dub you craig wolowitz19:48
gamerchick02gtg19:48
WolfgerLOL19:48
gamerchick02stupid shit for tonight. i can't stay the fuck away from that goddamned building for shit19:49
brouschwow19:49
Wolfgerwrong channel?19:50
ColonelPanic001wat19:57
ColonelPanic001I see nothing wrong. I feel that way about work sometimes.19:57
krondorhas anyone seen the US version of IT Crowd?  I didn't even know it existed, but I expect it's not good.20:11
krondorrelevant link; http://thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=81892&lid=720:11
snap-lkrondor: Assume any show ported from the UK to the US market is going to be shit20:14
snap-lThe only notable exceptions being The Office, Who's Line Is It Anyway, and The Missing Link20:15
snap-lthough some might argue about The Missing Link.20:15
jjessei'm going to request a dmca takedown on each image at the bottom of the page :)20:19
gamerchick02sorry, someone thought i had keys to something i don't.21:01
gamerchick02i'm not a honcho of OES. just Nile. and why would Nile have OES keys? right?21:02
snap-lI am not fluent in the inner workings of the Shriners, I'm afraid.21:03
gamerchick02it's ok. sorry for my OT grumping.21:04
snap-lyou're allowed. :)21:05
gamerchick02for some reason, one of our members thinks i have keys to everything. uhm, no.21:05
snap-lMost of my grumbling is OT anyway.21:05
gamerchick02heh.21:05
snap-lbl21:05
brouschif everyone quit grumbling we'd have nothing to talk about21:11
gamerchick02you are correct, brousch.21:15
