[01:42] <Unit193> Pandora updated, saver2/pithos/pianobar will be broken, they are already working on it
[01:50] <jrgifford> Unit193: "will"? was still working earlier today...
[02:03] <Unit193> jrgifford: Try using it now
[02:05] <jrgifford> I will in a minute.
[04:24] <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
[04:25] <Unit193> Really? Awesome!!
[04:25] <Unit193> Wasn't even me...
[04:43] <Cheri703> I will direct him here. he was asking if any of the reloco folks were developers
[14:16] <dzho> ITYM "would admit to being developers"
[14:16] <dzho> also, do we mean developer, or do we mean "web developer"?
[14:39] <thafreak> Windows requires admin privileges to set a default browser for a user? how fscking stupid
[14:50] <Cheri703> not sure dzho, will hopefully talk to him more at some point
[15:13] <_bbb_> DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS
[15:14] <Cheri703> *shrug* /me enjoys developing black and white film/prints...
[15:14] <Cheri703> so am a developer
[15:40] <Cheri703> anyone have thoughts on the sprint version of the samsung galaxy S II ? Considering it in November when we sign a new contract...
[15:54] <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...
[15:55] <thafreak> verizon seems to be really over priced...but maybe it's justified because you get so good of service?
[16:02] <Cheri703> sprint is kind of the best of all worlds
[16:03] <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
[16:11]  * 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
[16:14] <dzho> > can roam on verizon network
[16:14] <dzho> oh
[16:14] <dzho> I did not know that.
[16:15] <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?
[16:34] <canthus13> Cheri703: Ew.
[16:34] <Cheri703> yeah...
[16:34] <canthus13> Cheri703: I didn't know you were in India...
[16:35] <Cheri703> dzho: free roaming
[16:35] <canthus13> :P
[16:35] <Cheri703> mmhm
[16:37] <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
[16:38] <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?
[16:49] <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
[16:50] <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
[16:51] <Cheri703> *can have
[16:51] <dzho> yeah.
[16:52] <dzho> it's just interesting to me to learn this added dimension of "it depends on the phone"
[16:54] <Cheri703> eh, different phones have different antenna layouts and such, different radio strengths, etc
[16:55] <Cheri703> think of the iphone thing with putting your finger in the wrong spot and losing service because of antenna design
[16:56] <Cheri703> ok, I have to go and get ready to go to work now. may be back, may not :)
[17:11] <dzho> haha, right.  I mean, of course you expect different radio properties based on the design.
[18:15] <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
[18:16] <thafreak> hahaha
[18:17] <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
[18:18] <_bbb_> damned nuns
[18:18] <thafreak> doubt os/2 would be so easily compromised ;)
[18:30] <_bbb_> i used to love that shit
[18:30] <_bbb_> running my dual node bbs
[18:30] <_bbb_> while playing duke nukem
[19:05] <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 :)
[19:06] <thafreak> _bbb_: L.O.R.D.?
[19:07] <_bbb_> yes
[19:07] <_bbb_> and tradewars
[19:08] <thafreak> w00t
[19:14] <jrgifford> Afternoon jandrusk.
[19:29] <_bbb_> guess not
[19:32]  * jrgifford shrug
[20:00] <thafreak> Oh boy...seems some one from a DoD network tried to bruteforce my machines...nice...
[20:21] <canthus13> thafreak: Prolly a compromised machine. :P
[20:59] <thafreak> ha, and an IP from Halliburton
