| rick_h_ | boom, there goes power | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| rick_h_ | thank you battery backup! | 00:00 |
| rick_h_ | and laptops with extended battery power | 00:00 |
| rick_h_droid | Crap, and no power sucks | 01:25 |
| jrwren | TeamXlink: you (or students) do not have any first ammendment rights when using someone else's network. youd 'lose the argument in court VERY quickly | 02:25 |
| TeamXlink | Oh. | 02:25 |
| TeamXlink | Wait, what argument? | 02:25 |
| TeamXlink | The comments about the internet usage policy and what not | 02:27 |
| TeamXlink | Weren't related too the questions: | 02:27 |
| TeamXlink | [16:50:18] <TeamXlink> How far could you get based on the argument, by signing a document that is mandatory for attending a *public school*, you are signing your constitiutonsl freedoms away? | 02:28 |
| TeamXlink | [16:50:24] <TeamXlink> Assuming the student is 18, (Or else rights are really vague) | 02:28 |
| TeamXlink | [16:52:39] <snap-l> TeamXlink: I have no clue | 02:28 |
| jrwren | oh, what are you signing then? | 02:29 |
| TeamXlink | Oh, hmmmm | 02:31 |
| TeamXlink | hold on | 02:31 |
| TeamXlink | Let me browse my logs again. | 02:31 |
| TeamXlink | I can't find the part of the log where I was talking about the internet usage policy. | 02:32 |
| TeamXlink | I think it might have been not saved when I unplugged my pc. | 02:33 |
| snap-l | Good morning | 14:48 |
| snap-l | Off to do the grocery shopping. | 14:48 |
| rick_h_ | devinheitmueller: ping | 16:56 |
| devinheitmueller | hello | 16:56 |
| devinheitmueller | rick_h_: pong | 16:56 |
| rick_h_ | hey, need a favor, I picked up an HD antenna, but I need to help find a good place for it in the house | 16:56 |
| rick_h_ | I'm thinking of getting a usb tv tuner for the laptop | 16:56 |
| rick_h_ | and I can test it up stairs/down, etc | 16:56 |
| rick_h_ | suggestions for one that should work ok? | 16:57 |
| devinheitmueller | You interested in digital or analog support? | 16:57 |
| rick_h_ | running arch linux on 3.0 | 16:57 |
| rick_h_ | I want to test if I can get ota HD for the tv | 16:57 |
| rick_h_ | so digital | 16:57 |
| devinheitmueller | The HVR-950q is pretty good for that. | 16:57 |
| devinheitmueller | ... and it's well supported in 3.0 | 16:57 |
| devinheitmueller | I don't know about Arch, but Ubuntu ships with the firmware. | 16:57 |
| rick_h_ | ok cool | 16:57 |
| devinheitmueller | (if not, you can download it from kernellabs) | 16:57 |
| rick_h_ | and any boostrapping of the software side I'll need to scan/test channels? | 16:58 |
| devinheitmueller | No, just need to install the firmware, and install whatever packages provides "scan" | 16:58 |
| devinheitmueller | (typically /usr/bin/scan) | 16:58 |
| rick_h_ | ok | 16:58 |
| devinheitmueller | This wiki article explains the process pretty well, although nothing there is specific to the 950q: http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Talk:Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-950Q | 16:59 |
| rick_h_ | yea, I figured step 1 was working hardware and then most software should work regardless | 16:59 |
| devinheitmueller | Correct. Essentially all drivers implement a common interface which is used by applications such as Kaffeine, tvtime, and MythTV. | 17:00 |
| devinheitmueller | On second thought, this article is probably a bit better: http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Talk:OnAir_USB_HDTV_Creator | 17:00 |
| rick_h_ | awesome | 17:00 |
| devinheitmueller | (use ^ article instead of the 950q article I referenced earlier) | 17:01 |
| rick_h_ | you back in town? | 17:01 |
| devinheitmueller | Yeah, got back in Wednesday night (but too late for CHC) | 17:01 |
| rick_h_ | ah, cool. Well I'll bring the gear to CHC and if I get stuck I'll bug you :) | 17:02 |
| rick_h_ | thanks for the guidance on it | 17:02 |
| devinheitmueller | no problem. | 17:02 |
| devinheitmueller | Your "out of the box" experience should be pretty good as long as you have the firmware installed | 17:02 |
| devinheitmueller | (if not, you will see an error along the lines of "xc5000-1.4 firmware not found" in the dmesg log. | 17:02 |
| rick_h_ | ivtv-utils is the only package that references hauppuage, so installed that just in case | 17:03 |
| devinheitmueller | Most packages won't reference a specific vendor. | 17:04 |
| rick_h_ | k | 17:04 |
| devinheitmueller | ivtv-utils though is a good package to have if you're going to do any work related to analog, since it contains the "v4l2-ctl" tool that lets you query the device. | 17:04 |
| rick_h_ | gotcha, cool | 17:04 |
| devinheitmueller | You probably need a package along the lines of "dvb-utils" (or something named along those lines) | 17:04 |
| rick_h_ | libdvbpsi linuxtv-dvb-apps me-tv | 17:05 |
| rick_h_ | come up with a dvb search | 17:05 |
| devinheitmueller | Yeah, probably linuxtv-dvb-apps you want. | 17:06 |
| devinheitmueller | me-tv is a tv watching application, and libdvbpsi is a library. | 17:06 |
| rick_h_ | snap-l: ping | 17:42 |
| snap-l | rick_h_: poing | 17:51 |
| rick_h_ | hey, so thinking of checkout out this caribou with the meeting room | 17:51 |
| rick_h_ | how was it? | 17:51 |
| rick_h_ | any kind of board/anything in there? | 17:51 |
| snap-l | It was pretty nice. | 17:51 |
| snap-l | There's a board, a TV, and a round table in there | 17:51 |
| rick_h_ | hmmm, cool. | 17:52 |
| snap-l | Costs $25 in a gift card, which you can use for coffee, or anything in the store | 17:52 |
| rick_h_ | did you check if there was a meeting cost or anything with it? | 17:52 |
| rick_h_ | ah, ok cool | 17:52 |
| snap-l | so, not free, but definitely amortizable. | 17:52 |
| snap-l | rick_h_: You got power back, I'm assuming. :) | 17:52 |
| rick_h_ | yea, and gives me some thinking of the whole idea of something more meeting like sometimes | 17:53 |
| rick_h_ | heh yea | 17:53 |
| rick_h_ | around 3am | 17:53 |
| rick_h_ | so out for about 7:30-3am | 17:53 |
| snap-l | rick_h_: Yeah, not sure if it would work for CHC, but I'm keepingit in the back of my brain for jams, MUG-like meetings, etc. | 17:53 |
| snap-l | rick_h_: Ugh. Glad it's back though | 17:53 |
| rick_h_ | why not for CHC? | 17:54 |
| snap-l | well, since we've been there for a while.... | 17:54 |
| snap-l | But yeah, if they're full, or something like that | 17:54 |
| rick_h_ | well, I was thinking if it worked out just might make the migration | 17:54 |
| rick_h_ | to have promised space, the ability to do some more 'class-like' things | 17:55 |
| snap-l | Yeah, that might be neat. | 17:55 |
| rick_h_ | get my hands on a projector and would be pretty cool, start up something east side python meeting or something | 17:55 |
| rick_h_ | I've always thought of doing something like the web dev meeting or python group out here | 17:55 |
| rick_h_ | maybe I'll head down in a bit then and check it out. Work from there for a bit | 17:56 |
| snap-l | lmk if you do. Wouldn't mind meeting up | 17:56 |
| rick_h_ | k, will check with the wife here in a sec. | 17:57 |
| rick_h_ | thanks for the heads up, got the gears going lol | 17:57 |
| snap-l | np | 17:57 |
| rick_h_ | cool, ok going to pack up and head down | 18:00 |
| rick_h_ | snap-l: ^^ so if you're free meet you down there, if not I'll hang out and chat with them down there | 18:00 |
| snap-l | Sure. Are you doing work there, or just bopping in / bopping out/ | 18:02 |
| snap-l | ? | 18:02 |
| snap-l | rick_h_: ^^ | 18:05 |
| rick_h_ | snap-l: going to hang out fora few | 18:54 |
| rick_h_ | taking some time for her to get the schedule straight and have time to kill until dinner | 18:54 |
| rick_h_ | snap-l _stink_ Blazeix waldo323_ widox devinheitmueller if CHC was moved to here would you stop coming? http://goo.gl/yCQqt | 19:17 |
| devinheitmueller | rick_h_: probably not. It's only a couple miles further than I go anyway. | 19:17 |
| devinheitmueller | (and I'm only here for another four weeks anyway) | 19:18 |
| rick_h_ | devinheitmueller: cool, thanks | 19:18 |
| rick_h_ | won't be this week, butmight start week after, 24th or whatever | 19:18 |
| rick_h_ | they have a meeting room I can get I'm working on trying to get for a while out | 19:18 |
| devinheitmueller | Nice. | 19:18 |
| rick_h_ | yea, think it's worththe slight extra distance | 19:19 |
| snap-l | WEll there goes my thoughts of ever walking to CHC. ;) | 19:37 |
| Blazeix | rick_h_: nope, I'd still go. | 19:38 |
| rick_h_ | Blazeix: awesome, thanks | 19:42 |
| devinheitmueller | rick_h_: are you there now? | 19:46 |
| snap-l | Yeah, we're here now | 19:49 |
| rick_h_ | devinheitmueller: yea, checked it out today | 19:51 |
| rick_h_ | working on getting it reserved | 19:51 |
| devinheitmueller | I need some coffee. Will swing by for a few minutes. | 19:52 |
| rick_h_ | cool | 19:53 |
| widox | rick_h_: um, I'd still go | 19:56 |
| widox | its about a 5min diff for me | 19:56 |
| rick_h_ | widox: awesome | 19:57 |
| widox | like how the street view is from dream cruise time | 19:57 |
| rick_h_ | oh yea? hah | 19:57 |
| widox | tons of 9ld cards | 19:57 |
| widox | how many people can you get in the room? | 19:57 |
| rick_h_ | widox: we could probably get up to 18ish if we did some org | 19:59 |
| rick_h_ | by default it's 10 I think | 19:59 |
| rick_h_ | there are two big tables put side v side | 19:59 |
| rick_h_ | plenty of power, a whiteboard with markers | 20:00 |
| rick_h_ | honestly, htinkig long term we might be able to do some python/webdev group meetings type material here | 20:00 |
| rick_h_ | there's room to get double digit people in fora talk | 20:00 |
| rick_h_ | but we'll see | 20:00 |
| widox | sweet | 20:21 |
| snap-l | Good afternoon. | 21:16 |
| brousch1 | geekers | 22:32 |
| brousch1 | i'm working with someone on a python project, his first. he rejected bitbucket because he didn't like the privacy policy, so i emailed the file back to him with my changes. he disregarded them all and made a bunch of changes | 22:34 |
| brousch1 | his major changes were to add comments, remove argparse in favor of self-parsed arguments, and add () in each if statement and print statement | 22:39 |
| _stink_ | hah | 22:54 |
| _stink_ | awesome | 22:54 |
| snap-l | brousch1: Why are you working with this person? | 22:55 |
| brousch1 | side project | 23:01 |
| brousch1 | he wanted to do the tricky part | 23:02 |
| brousch1 | interesting. i didn't think print() worked in python 2.5 | 23:02 |
| brousch1 | he's a smart kid. i just need to slap him with the pep8 snake a little more | 23:03 |
| rick_h_ | brousch1: yea, print() has worked for a while | 23:32 |
| rick_h_ | just not mandatory like it is in 3.x | 23:32 |
| rick_h_ | and sucky with the whole bitbucket/etc crap | 23:32 |
| TeamXlink | Does anyone know what time hungry howies or little ceasers closes on sunday? | 23:40 |
| TeamXlink | Are they closed do you think? | 23:40 |
| brousch1 | Why would you want to eat greasy cardboard topped with vomit? | 23:41 |
| rick_h_ | I'd guess you'd have to call/look them up online | 23:41 |
| brousch1 | papa johns is the best chain pizza. get it extra sauce and well done | 23:42 |
| brousch1 | their online ordering r0x | 23:42 |
| snap-l | prefer Jets, personlly | 23:52 |
| TeamXlink | ./me prefers non chain pizza...................... | 23:58 |
| TeamXlink | ./me prefers pizza from GR Pizza or Cherery Valley Pizzeria. | 23:59 |
| TeamXlink | ./me can't get that pizza anymore. | 23:59 |
