[02:54] <Cheri703> rawr rawr rawr
[03:06] <Unit193> And howdy to you too. What's up?
[03:19] <Cheri703> not too much, just bored
[03:20] <Unit193> I forgot to add you :P
[03:20] <Unit193> Any news on that ncolug? I was looking them up again...
[03:21] <Unit193> (Not that it has to fall to you for that matter though)
[03:22] <Cheri703> no idea, I don't do much in the evenings
[03:34] <Cheri703> do you know if EricR2427 is coming tomorrow?
[03:35] <Unit193> Oh, yeah... I'm sure he can't go, but I'll ask
[03:46] <Unit193> Do we know what happened to jgould? Seems as if we are missing a few people...
[04:08] <Cheri703> yeah, it got quiet lately, but that happens, comes in waves
[04:59]  * canthus13 waves.
[05:00] <Unit193> Howdy, canthus13
[07:11] <BiosElement> Well exciting as ever here :P
[07:12] <Unit193> BiosElement: Quite
[07:12] <BiosElement> Sooo...any Minecraft players alive in the loco?
[07:13] <Unit193> Never done it
[07:13] <Unit193> Thought about it once though, but it doesn't sound like my type of game
[07:13] <BiosElement> Hah it's pretty fun.
[07:17] <BiosElement> Woahh
[07:17] <BiosElement> Sweet, I got a beta slot to Call of Duty Elite
[07:17] <Unit193> Nice! How did you get that and what does it mean exactly?
[07:18] <BiosElement> I go it through an ECA random deal and it means i'll get access to the beta before it's released.
[07:20] <Unit193> Eh, I didn't know they had a new one to beta test
[07:21] <BiosElement> Heh it may be horrid, it may be awesome. We'll see how well they do.
[08:32] <Unit193> We are unlogged?
[08:32] <Unit193> Too late...
[13:43] <dzho> morning Ohio et al
[13:44]  * dzho wonders if anyone else is doing any of this 4K cylinder alignment bidnis
[13:51] <thafreak> Anyone else check out this turntable.fm?
[13:51] <thafreak> Community dj'ing
[13:51] <thafreak> pretty neat
[13:52] <thafreak> dzho: I've done the 4k stuff...it's kind of confusing...
[13:52] <thafreak> in so much that there doesn't seem to be a decent way to be sure you've done it right
[13:53] <dzho> fdisk -H 224 -S 56 /dev/sdX
[13:54] <dzho> thafreak: I got that from http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-4kb-sector-disks/
[13:55] <dzho> just tried it, and then checked 'manually' (eg, took the start of each partition, divided by 2048, checked for a remainder to indicate it didn't divide cleanly).
[13:55] <dzho> it's still sort of "frakkin' partitions, how do they work?" magic
[14:00] <thafreak> well the whole point is if you don't make the partitions aligned properly, you supposedly get horrible performance
[14:00] <dzho> right
[14:00] <thafreak> but when I did it, I got basically the same performance
[14:01] <thafreak> more or less...
[14:01] <dzho> it's just that 224/56 seem to have no good relation to powers of 2 at a sufficiently high level
[14:01] <thafreak> didn't notice anything crazy
[14:01] <dzho> sure, 56 is 7*2^3
[14:01] <thafreak> right
[14:01] <dzho> they're like magic numbers some how
[17:16] <Cheri703> Unit193: around?
[17:20] <Cheri703> urgh, ok, well, if you show up while I'm gone: My day got way complicated. I'm trying to work it all out, but based on current time frames, I don't know exactly how I'm going to do that. You are more than welcome to still go, and andy might show up like last time (he didn't know that it got cancelled), so...hopefully it all works out
[17:22] <Cheri703> :S complicated days
[17:39] <Unit193> Hmmm....
[17:58] <Cheri703> I wouldn't be able to get there til about 5:15, and I need to be at this other thing at/by 6:30, and at present I'd have no way between the two, so I have to pick one or the other
[19:05] <Cheri703> Unit193: looks like andy probably isn't able to go, and no word from skrappjaw
[19:06] <Unit193> Cheri703: The week you send an email about it, is the week it doesn't happen :P
[19:06] <Unit193> Thanks for letting me know
[19:06] <Cheri703> story of my life
[19:09]  * Cheri703 emailed
[19:09] <Unit193> I wouldn't want to go if I'm going to be sitting there looking around funny...
[19:21] <Cheri703> yeah, I emailed to say it is canceled
[19:21] <Unit193> Better try next time :/
[19:25] <Cheri703> yeah
[19:26] <Cheri703> I literally heard about this other thing right before getting on the bus to take care of this dog, and this has the potential to gain me some clients
[19:26] <Cheri703> so...it's a necessary thing
[19:26] <paultag> Cheri703: life first
[19:26] <Cheri703> yep
[19:26] <Cheri703> it's just crazy, I have weeks where I have NOTHING going on, and then weeks where it feels like I can barely stop to breathe
[19:27] <Cheri703> I have the feeling that cosmicpizza is here by accident...
[19:27] <Unit193> He is also in another LoCo channel
[19:27] <Unit193> And I guess he has spoken more in here
[19:28] <Cheri703> considering that he asked "what means loco" and has a .fr host...
[19:29] <Unit193> Yeah, I was hopeing one of the other smarter people would come around and tell him all the info he needed
