[02:26] <Unit193> skellat , CosmicPizza: Howdy
[02:26] <skellat> Hello
[02:27] <skellat> What's new?  I spent most of my day at Case Western Reserve University's School of Dental Medicine
[02:31] <Unit193> Computer has been having CPU hangups (crashes) all day and the other one keeps dropping internet :/  Only good news is the move to Natty mostly worked well
[02:32] <Unit193> And since all terminal colors are off (just had a kinda recoverable GPU wedge)
[02:41] <skellat> Yikes
[02:46] <skellat> France24 is livestreaming a cool documentary bit about the mini-hospital at Charles DeGaulle (CDG) Airport in Paris
[02:48] <Unit193> Just rebooted and it's already killed again... Maybe I'll ignore it for now and just use... Hmmm...
[02:49] <skellat> I'd replace the video card
[02:50] <Unit193> Built in. If I can get it working, I can have it just fine until I reboot, then it will all go crazy...
[02:51] <skellat> What sort of motherboard?
[02:53] <Unit193> Optiplex GX260 if that helps
[02:54] <skellat> Ugh.  Dell.
[02:54] <skellat> I'd see if the BIOS could be configured to turn off the built-in video in favor of a drop-in board
[02:54] <Unit193> I rather like Dell, just not 8xx chipset
[02:55] <skellat> The 8xx chipset breaks every bloody release of Ubuntu
[02:56] <Unit193> As I said, if I can get it working, it's fine for months! I just don't get that...
[02:56] <skellat> There is a physical break somewhere, then
[02:58] <Unit193> I wouldn't think so.  Intel 845G PCI Accelerated SVGA
[03:00] <canthus13> that's accelerated like a 66 VW Beetle... :P
[03:01] <Unit193> I can use that, a computer that has 500MHz Celeron, Vista or a working laptop (I would like desktop for most things though...)
[03:03] <skellat> Yikes, that sounds like the Frankenstein box here
[03:17] <Unit193> That's 4 computers
[03:23] <skellat> The Frankenstein box has bits and pieces of four separate computers in it to try to make a coherent whole
[03:23] <skellat> Crap
[03:23] <skellat> It's been a long day
[03:23] <skellat> I gotta wander away
[03:32] <Cheri703> saw this yesterday: http://www.hostgator.com/jobs.shtml
[03:33] <Cheri703> applied to this tonight: http://www.support.com/about/careers/openings?nl=1&jvi=olzLVfwk,Job&jvs=www.support.com
[03:34] <Unit193> Good luck getting it and with the idiots if you do! ;)
[03:34] <Cheri703> oh yes, I know :)
[03:36] <canthus13> Cheri703: Cool.. Hope ya get it.
[03:37] <canthus13> Cheri703: you'd have to move to TX, I think.. I've been looking at Hostgator myself... They're in Austin, and I plan on moving there eventually.
[03:37] <Unit193> canthus13: Get your ticket fixed up? ;)
[03:38] <canthus13> nOT YET.
[03:38] <canthus13> ....
[03:38] <canthus13> Freakin' caps lock. why do we have it?
[03:39] <canthus13> I suppose if I coded cobol all day it might be useful...
[03:40] <Unit193> Cheri703: Does that make me sound at all annoying asking/saying that in other channel?
[03:41] <Cheri703> yeah, hostgator yes, but support.com no
[03:41] <Cheri703> what channel unit?
[03:41] <Cheri703> ah, gotcha
[03:44] <Unit193> #ubuntu-irc what other channel are we both in? :P (I thought the "gotcha" was at me?)
[03:50] <Cheri703> it was
[03:50] <Cheri703> I sent it after
[14:00] <thafreak> Morning Ohio
[14:01] <deejoe> :(
[14:02] <thafreak> what?
[14:20] <deejoe> since I'm not in ohio atm I'd just feel weird replying to that.
[14:47] <thafreak> ah...
[14:47] <thafreak> well, not like you're not an ohioan still right?
[15:27] <deejoe> heh
[15:27] <deejoe> good question
[15:27] <deejoe> I'll hold out for dual-citizenship :)
[15:27] <deejoe> one by birthright, one by residence
