| skrappjaw | Cheri703: you lurking? | 01:15 |
|---|---|---|
| Cheri703 | yuppers | 01:15 |
| skrappjaw | I plugged my no-ip account url into my browser on my phone... it brings up the webUI for my router. I can still connect via SSH to my pc that is on the wireless, but i'm not so sure i like my router open to the interwebs. Can I fix that? | 01:17 |
| canthus13 | skrappjaw: log into your router and turn off remote access. | 01:18 |
| skrappjaw | ok. | 01:18 |
| skrappjaw | will that still allow being connected via wireless? | 01:19 |
| Unit193 | Yep | 01:21 |
| skrappjaw | coolies. Did it. thanks Broskis | 01:23 |
| Cheri703 | ok, sorry, was distracted | 01:24 |
| Cheri703 | :/ | 01:24 |
| Cheri703 | my parents are here | 01:24 |
| Unit193 | Cheri703: Good luck! ;) | 01:24 |
| Cheri703 | heh, thanks | 01:24 |
| Cheri703 | so far so good | 01:25 |
| Cheri703 | got to ride my dad's recumbent trike for a bit :) planning to do so tomorrow as well | 01:25 |
| skrappjaw | sweet. Are you gonna get one of your own? | 01:26 |
| Cheri703 | I'd like to | 01:41 |
| Cheri703 | but I can't afford one at this point :( | 01:41 |
| skrappjaw | Awe. Save yo pennies. :) | 01:42 |
| Cheri703 | yeah :/ | 01:42 |
| Cheri703 | my parents each have one of these: http://www.icetrikes.co/explore-our-trikes/adventure (they were 35th anniversary gifts to each other) | 01:43 |
| Cheri703 | they're FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN | 01:43 |
| skrappjaw | koolies | 01:44 |
| skrappjaw | im thinkin about rooting my phone... | 01:44 |
| Cheri703 | yeah? | 01:44 |
| skrappjaw | my Dx2 is taunting me. I have gingerbreak and a few tutorials on how to unroot if needed. | 01:44 |
| Cheri703 | heh | 01:45 |
| skrappjaw | What did you root with? | 01:45 |
| dmcglone1 | skrappjaw: bad thing is, the tutorials may not work | 01:45 |
| skrappjaw | and what phone are you using? | 01:45 |
| Cheri703 | I followed whatever directions were on xda-dev forum | 01:46 |
| skrappjaw | ok. Thats one of the places i was surfing info on. | 01:46 |
| Cheri703 | mine is a sprint hero | 01:46 |
| skrappjaw | I also have the latest 2.2.2 Froyo file and the tools for a complete flash to factory. | 01:46 |
| Unit193 | canthus13: Don't you even think it... | 01:47 |
| dmcglone1 | skrappjaw: what would be the benefit of rooting it? | 01:47 |
| skrappjaw | freeting or removing the bloatware. Programs i will never use that verizon installed. | 01:48 |
| Cheri703 | wireless tether for root users!! | 01:48 |
| Cheri703 | also superuser | 01:48 |
| skrappjaw | That too. | 01:48 |
| Cheri703 | and adfree | 01:48 |
| Cheri703 | and a bunch of other stuff | 01:48 |
| skrappjaw | Better memory allocation using the SD card. | 01:49 |
| skrappjaw | terminal access. ;) | 01:49 |
| canthus13 | Unit193: Eh? | 01:49 |
| dmcglone1 | I see. | 01:49 |
| dmcglone1 | I got a crappy phone that isn't worth my time to root :-/ | 01:50 |
| Unit193 | canthus13: Dang you! You ruined my mind and you don't even remember why ;) | 01:50 |
| dmcglone1 | Unit193: we all ruined your mind in some way or another.. ;-) | 01:51 |
| skrappjaw | I wonder if you can SSH back into the phone from pc... | 01:51 |
| skrappjaw | dunno what i would do with it but... it sounds cool. | 01:51 |
| dmcglone1 | ssh into your phone and take pics of whoever stole it ;-) | 01:52 |
| skrappjaw | rawk! | 01:53 |
| skrappjaw | that would be awesome. Turn on all the GPS tracking and just go findem. | 01:54 |
| dmcglone1 | nah, print there pics and plaster em all over the city on telephone poles | 01:54 |
| dmcglone1 | of c ourse use the gps to make sure you put a bunch in an area the thief is in | 01:55 |
| dmcglone1 | scare the holy shit out of him, before you get your phone back | 01:56 |
| dmcglone1 | lol | 01:56 |
| skrappjaw | Do phones have a MAC address? Could just have an app that pings when on WIFI. trackem via IP on the wifi. | 01:56 |
| dmcglone1 | don't mention it's the phone, just make him think he's wanted, otherwise he'd dump the phone | 01:57 |
| dmcglone1 | my phone has a mac | 01:57 |
| skrappjaw | No. Im just saying, use those bits to trackem in the process. | 01:57 |
| dmcglone1 | would work I believe | 01:58 |
| skrappjaw | Kinda stupid to steal a phone that is so on the grid that you never know who is checkin you out. | 01:59 |
| skrappjaw | i keep my GPS off. Maybe i need an app that will turn it on via text in case I miss place it | 01:59 |
| dmcglone1 | one thing about verizon, they don't use sim cards | 01:59 |
| dmcglone1 | so anyone trying to dump the sim couldn't | 02:00 |
| skrappjaw | dx2 doesnt have a sim? | 02:01 |
| dmcglone1 | if it's not pre-paid | 02:01 |
| dmcglone1 | verizon only uses sim's in pre-paid plans | 02:01 |
| * Cheri703 will probably be woken up EARLY tomorrow >.< | 02:41 | |
| Unit193 | Why? Parents like morning? | 02:43 |
| Cheri703 | parents usually get up between 5 and 6am...and I have to sleep on the couch since my acid reflux has been acting up lately...woo front door 6 feet from my head :/ | 02:49 |
| Cheri703 | oh, in case the front door reference doesn't make sense: when they visit, they bring their camper and sleep in it in the driveway | 02:52 |
| Unit193 | You *could* always keep them up with you ;) | 02:53 |
| Cheri703 | nah | 02:56 |
| skellat | :-( | 03:08 |
| Unit193 | Eh? | 03:10 |
| skellat | Just realized one of the cities here in Ashtabula County is on track to go broke mid-August | 03:11 |
| skellat | They'll be down to just $20k in their general fund at the very start of August as is. | 03:11 |
| skellat | Considering that one week's payroll is $90k...they'll be unable to pay their bills shortly | 03:13 |
| skellat | These are the tripwires that the city has to be careful to not cross: http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/118.03 | 03:15 |
| skellat | Unit193: I doubt any community in the Mansfield area is looking at having no money on-hand in the next couple months | 03:24 |
| Unit193 | I wouldn't think so. Galion had some real issues, but that was because of embezzlement | 03:25 |
| skellat | The situation in Ashtabula City is caused basically by a dysfunctional body of elected officials and an awfully high number of residents being on welfare and not paying taxes thereby | 03:28 |
| skellat | A pallet of OLPC units and appropriate education would make quite a difference in computer use, or the lack thereof, in the city | 03:30 |
| Unit193 | Man am I glad I got a dyndns account when I did! Now you're stuck with crappy names... | 03:43 |
| Unit193 | skellat: Is this the city you live in? | 03:44 |
| skellat | Just outside its border. I live in Ashtabula Township, the unincorporated portion | 03:45 |
| skellat | I have to cross into it a lot | 03:45 |
| skellat | And they provide waste management & sewer service under contract for the trailer park I live in | 03:46 |
| skellat | Unit193: How do you most easily set up dyndns with a Netgear router? | 03:49 |
| Unit193 | I don't :P | 03:50 |
| Unit193 | You can use ddclient for linux if you have a box there | 03:50 |
| Unit193 | If the router supports dd-wrt or tomato you should be in good shape. What router? | 03:50 |
| skellat | Hold on. Let me go look. | 03:51 |
| skellat | WGR614 | 03:53 |
| skellat | I gotta wander off to bed. | 03:59 |
| Unit193 | Dang, I missed him... I got a little glass in my hand... | 04:00 |
| Unit193 | Looks like it has one built in, if not, ddclient | 04:01 |
| thafreak | Morning Ohio | 13:42 |
| _bbb | morning | 15:28 |
| _bbb | just picked up a WRT160LN | 15:29 |
| _bbb | 99 cents | 15:29 |
| _bbb | had a $75 amazon gift card =) | 15:30 |
| thafreak | Anyone see these new amd "APU's"? | 16:20 |
| thafreak | gpu and cpu combined in a single chip... | 16:20 |
| canthus13 | Yep. The i3 is one. | 16:21 |
| thafreak | do you know which gpu is in the i3? | 16:21 |
| thafreak | and is the i5 and i7 the same? | 16:22 |
| canthus13 | some odd offshoot of the 4500 iirc. | 16:22 |
| canthus13 | not sure.. I think some i5s are. | 16:22 |
| thafreak | interesting concept...not sure what I'd use them for...maybe to make lowend desktops cheaper... | 16:26 |
| thafreak | of course, I'm more of a fan of thin clients anyway. | 16:26 |
| canthus13 | thafreak: That's pretty much it. | 16:31 |
| _bbb | netbooks | 16:45 |
| _bbb | and tablets | 16:45 |
| canthus13 | _bbb: I'd have gotten the e2000 instead. they run about 70 bucks... | 16:46 |
| canthus13 | if it's a 160N 3.0, it's worth it.. otherwise, it's memory starved. | 16:47 |
| _bbb | no usb port.. | 16:47 |
| _bbb | i considered E2100L | 16:48 |
| _bbb | but this was cheaper | 16:48 |
| _bbb | and had external antennae | 16:48 |
| _bbb | WRT160LN and E2100L had similar specs | 16:49 |
| _bbb | newer has more ram | 16:50 |
| _bbb | E3000 would have worked but didnt want to spend that much | 16:50 |
| canthus13 | Yeah... it's pretty expensive. | 16:51 |
| _bbb | i get my T60 today | 19:16 |
| _bbb | woot | 19:16 |
| Unit193 | Cheri703: Is the Ubuntu News meeting called off? | 22:12 |
| canthus13 | _bbb: Oh. the e2000 can have antennae added easily. just punch out the openings and connect the antenna leads. | 22:33 |
| _bbb | that sounds an awful lot like work | 22:37 |
| _bbb | just installed the natty | 22:37 |
| canthus13 | _bbb: 10 minutes work. I'm gonna put +9db antennae on mine at some point. | 22:39 |
| canthus13 | the real problem with the cd player-style routers is that they get really freaking hot. | 22:40 |
| _bbb | its that rock and roll music | 22:42 |
| _bbb | kids these days i tell you | 22:42 |
| canthus13 | heh. | 22:44 |
| Unit193 | jwb1275! Long time no see (If I can remember you :P ) | 23:25 |
| Unit193 | How is Akron? | 23:25 |
| jwb1275 | Hi Unit193 It has been awhile. Akron is great! | 23:33 |
| Unit193 | jwb1275: I have some family there, do you still have Ubuntu hours? | 23:37 |
| jwb1275 | I haven't been to one in awhile. There might be a few that are still going. | 23:42 |
| Unit193 | Ah, I thought you were head... Anywho, what brings you to the lovly IRC today? | 23:45 |
| Unit193 | lovely | 23:45 |
| jwb1275 | I like to check in once and awhile. I turned of ReLoCo lead to Doug Stanley. I should check with him I'd like to start going to the Akron Ubuntu Hour again! | 23:47 |
| Unit193 | TheErk? | 23:48 |
| jwb1275 | No. I believe he goes by doug-stanley on irc | 23:49 |
| jwb1275 | Unit192: where in ohio are you? | 23:53 |
| jwb1275 | Unit193: | 23:53 |
| Unit193 | Oh, that's thafreak | 23:53 |
| Unit193 | I'm around mansfield | 23:53 |
| Unit193 | https://launchpad.net/~doug-stanley I'll have to ask him if he really is doing it (I may have done so...) and update the wiki... | 23:55 |
