Unit193 | Pandora updated, saver2/pithos/pianobar will be broken, they are already working on it | 01:42 |
---|---|---|
jrgifford | Unit193: "will"? was still working earlier today... | 01:50 |
Unit193 | jrgifford: Try using it now | 02:03 |
jrgifford | I will in a minute. | 02:05 |
Cheri703 | met (briefly) a lubuntu user tonight at my job. had to go back in from break, but going to talk to him more hopefully at some point | 04:24 |
Unit193 | Really? Awesome!! | 04:25 |
Unit193 | Wasn't even me... | 04:25 |
Cheri703 | I will direct him here. he was asking if any of the reloco folks were developers | 04:43 |
dzho | ITYM "would admit to being developers" | 14:16 |
dzho | also, do we mean developer, or do we mean "web developer"? | 14:16 |
thafreak | Windows requires admin privileges to set a default browser for a user? how fscking stupid | 14:39 |
Cheri703 | not sure dzho, will hopefully talk to him more at some point | 14:50 |
_bbb_ | DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS | 15:13 |
Cheri703 | *shrug* /me enjoys developing black and white film/prints... | 15:14 |
Cheri703 | so am a developer | 15:14 |
Cheri703 | anyone have thoughts on the sprint version of the samsung galaxy S II ? Considering it in November when we sign a new contract... | 15:40 |
thafreak | I'm in the market for a new phone as well (and possibly new service provider)... | 15:54 |
thafreak | tmobile has been alright... | 15:54 |
thafreak | but dead spots are everywhere... | 15:54 |
thafreak | verizon seems to be really over priced...but maybe it's justified because you get so good of service? | 15:55 |
Cheri703 | sprint is kind of the best of all worlds | 16:02 |
Cheri703 | still (for now at least) has unlimited data, can roam on verizon network, so very few dead zones | 16:03 |
Cheri703 | and really well priced plans | 16:03 |
Cheri703 | at&t is pricey too | 16:03 |
* Cheri703 is going to be doing customer support for at&t...poked at some of their plans...to have one with 100 less anytime minutes, and tiered data instead of unlimited, I'd pay ~$100 more per month | 16:11 | |
thafreak | yuck | 16:11 |
dzho | > can roam on verizon network | 16:14 |
dzho | oh | 16:14 |
dzho | I did not know that. | 16:14 |
dzho | So, I guess so long as you have coverage where you use the phone the most, so as not to incur roaming charges, you're OK? | 16:15 |
canthus13 | Cheri703: Ew. | 16:34 |
Cheri703 | yeah... | 16:34 |
canthus13 | Cheri703: I didn't know you were in India... | 16:34 |
Cheri703 | dzho: free roaming | 16:35 |
canthus13 | :P | 16:35 |
Cheri703 | mmhm | 16:35 |
dzho | weird | 16:37 |
dzho | there was a guy at our lug who was griping about poor coverage with sprint | 16:37 |
dzho | but there was a guy at the hackerspace talking about forcing the phone into always-roam mode | 16:37 |
dzho | so, maybe the first guy didn't know about what the second guy is talkin about | 16:38 |
dzho | in the 2nd case, the issue is if you have marginal sprint coverage, you'll get poor service if the phone prefers to connect via sprint | 16:38 |
dzho | but if you force roaming and move it away from marginal sprint service to superior vzw service, then I guess you're ok? | 16:38 |
Cheri703 | depends on the phone | 16:49 |
Cheri703 | mine can't force roam | 16:49 |
Cheri703 | but some can | 16:49 |
dzho | so, you'd be in a pickle in the given situation | 16:49 |
Cheri703 | I've always had pretty good coverage with sprint | 16:49 |
Cheri703 | and it hopped over reasonably well | 16:49 |
Cheri703 | only place with marginal is at my parents' house in rural NY, and if I go outside, it's fine | 16:50 |
Cheri703 | here in mansfield, most people have verizon, but sprint does fine. t-mo and at&t are crap here | 16:50 |
Cheri703 | also depends on the radio in the phone, two different phones will have different service levels in the same place | 16:50 |
Cheri703 | *can have | 16:51 |
dzho | yeah. | 16:51 |
dzho | it's just interesting to me to learn this added dimension of "it depends on the phone" | 16:52 |
Cheri703 | eh, different phones have different antenna layouts and such, different radio strengths, etc | 16:54 |
Cheri703 | think of the iphone thing with putting your finger in the wrong spot and losing service because of antenna design | 16:55 |
Cheri703 | ok, I have to go and get ready to go to work now. may be back, may not :) | 16:56 |
dzho | haha, right. I mean, of course you expect different radio properties based on the design. | 17:11 |
thafreak | wow HP owns 15.0.0.0/8 and addresses in there tried to brute force one of my machines | 18:15 |
paultag | thafreak: well, it appears that way - or the machines have been hacked | 18:15 |
thafreak | hahaha | 18:16 |
thafreak | and MIT owns 18.0.0.0/8, and there are TONS of machines compromised there trying to brute force me | 18:17 |
thafreak | yeah, but hp should be on their game...not have any compromised machines | 18:17 |
paultag | or students on the network | 18:17 |
thafreak | probably windoze boxes | 18:17 |
paultag | yeah | 18:17 |
_bbb_ | probably OS/2 | 18:17 |
_bbb_ | damned nuns | 18:18 |
thafreak | doubt os/2 would be so easily compromised ;) | 18:18 |
_bbb_ | i used to love that shit | 18:30 |
_bbb_ | running my dual node bbs | 18:30 |
_bbb_ | while playing duke nukem | 18:30 |
thafreak | wow | 19:05 |
thafreak | I only had a single machine bbs...with a single phone line | 19:05 |
thafreak | and if I wanted to use my computer, I had to shut down my bbs :) | 19:05 |
thafreak | _bbb_: L.O.R.D.? | 19:06 |
_bbb_ | yes | 19:07 |
_bbb_ | and tradewars | 19:07 |
thafreak | w00t | 19:08 |
jrgifford | Afternoon jandrusk. | 19:14 |
_bbb_ | guess not | 19:29 |
* jrgifford shrug | 19:32 | |
thafreak | Oh boy...seems some one from a DoD network tried to bruteforce my machines...nice... | 20:00 |
canthus13 | thafreak: Prolly a compromised machine. :P | 20:21 |
thafreak | ha, and an IP from Halliburton | 20:59 |
