paultagmhall119: so, I decided. I need to find an innocent name that when com is put before it, ends up funny. Like "munism" (munism.com → com.munism)13:35
paultagmhall119: so I can use something to do my Java hax0ring under13:36
paultagor munist -- com.munist.manefest.o13:36
paultaggrr, manifest.o *13:36
mhall119there's a certain irony to that13:41
paultagmhall119: in what?13:57
nigelbmanefest?13:58
mhall119paultag: given how much Java is used in big, capitalist instititions13:59
paultagmhall119: it's a closed spec, yar. It's not really ironic, if it were Python, it'd be ironic because communist (community driven and maintained code) would be supporting capitalist america14:01
paultagwich is the case14:01
paultagand is indeed ironic14:01
mhall119open source isn't communist14:02
paultagit is14:02
paultagmarxist anyway14:02
mhall119haven't we had this argument before? multiple times?14:02
paultagmhall119: yeah you made up some craptastic term like ultra capitalist monitary social blah blah (which is both not a thing and not right :) )14:03
mhall119I don't recall making up stuff14:04
paultagi'll find the post after work, it was a most silly term14:05
mhall119if it's not signed by my GPG key, I'll deny every saying it14:05
paultagmhall119: it's on FB14:05
mhall119well then I'll certainly deny it14:06

AlanBellI just typed15:11
popeyi pre-prepped mine15:15

popeyi too am lazy15:16
popeyi wrote mine 10 mins ago15:16
nigelbpopey: Just make sure its somewhat realitic15:32
nigelbrealistic15:32
nigelbI once did a session on the fly.15:32
mhall119I did too, when somebody didn't show up15:33
popeyare we not supposed to prep then?15:35
mhall119preparation is generally a good idea15:35
popeyI'll just highlight the whole 170 lines and paste in one go :D15:36
cjohnstonwho didn't show up?15:37

nigelbmhall119: *cough* sorry15:48
Davieypopey: When i next see you, can you autograph my collectors card of you pls?15:59
popeyI can certainly make a mark on it15:59
Davieyawesome.15:59
* popey says "envelope"15:59
mhall119Daviey: just have him GPG sign the image16:02
Davieyooo16:02
Davieythe thing is, a hand signed card will fetch more on ebay than a gpg signed one.16:03
nigelblol16:03
DavieyAlthough, a gpg signed one i could sell more of.16:03
nigelb"Signed by Alan Pope! The nutter doing UUPC"16:03
mhall119Daviey: I'd think a GPG signed geek-card would be more desirable than a physically signed geek-card16:03
nigelbI think the best would be to have a GPG key sign of the image on the back of the card.16:04
mhall119nigel wins16:04
DavieyAlthough, a gpg signed digest next to it in a picture frame above my bed - doesn't really cut it.16:04
mhall119Daviey: no, make him hand-write the GPG signature on the card16:05
Davieyooo16:05
nigelbmhall119 wins!16:05
mhall119you'll have the only one, because after doing it once he'll never consent to doing it again16:05
DavieyBut popey will not have time to do that for all the screaming geeks.16:05
mhall119what, popey can't take a couple hours of his time to sign your card?16:06
Davieyslack, i know16:08
dholbachalright my friends - I call it a day16:09

mhall119paultag: /me ups the ante on java package namespace jokes17:10
paultagmhall119: I saw that :)17:10
paultagmhall119: I even thought about trying to snag that domain, but figured it was too short17:10
paultagmhall119: +1 here :)17:10
mhall119it's kind of funny how many actual domain names would make inappropriate java package names17:12
paultagmhall119: dude, right!!!!17:13
mhall119I guess they'd make inappropriate Active Directory names too17:13
mhall119I think they do the same17:13
mhall119American Nuclear Society is amusing, if not outright inappropriate17:14
paultag:)17:16
paultagthat means I can migrate nookie from com.whube.nookie to org.anized.nookie17:17

nhandlerAnyone have experience converting a physical hard drive to a virtual machine image?18:59
pleia2I've done it by creating a skeleton install on a new volume for a VM and then rsyncing the filesystem over19:00
pleia2it actually works with some excludes19:00
AlanBellyou can sometimes point a VM at a physical disk and just tell it to use that19:00
paultagpleia2: +1 that's the best way, I think19:03
nhandlerpleia2: That is a bit trickier when the os is windows ;) I'm getting a new computer and want to put linux on it while preserving the initial contents of the disk19:03
paultagAlanBell: I wasn't able to do that with VBox :(19:03
paultagnhandler: barf19:03
nhandlerAlthough, I guess I could always get a free copy of windows and use that19:03
* topyli coughs at free windows19:05
* paultag coughs at windows19:05
nhandlertopyli: It is all legal (really)19:05
nhandlerpaultag: Yeah, I'd prefer not to have to use it, but I'd rather have a vm installed and setup just in case (for school)19:06
paultagnhandler: mm19:06
AlanBellpaultag: I believe you can if you tweak the xml file by hand19:07
paultagAlanBell: ah, cool :)19:07
