bkerensa:D16:13
nathwillhrm16:13
bkerensadidnt have to do anything.... looks just like your setup16:13
bkerensa:D16:13

bkerensa:D16:14
nathwilloh16:14
nathwillgotcha16:14
nathwillyeah, that's a good thing. :)16:14
bkerensaOpenBox on Ubuntu was fun.... I found a howto16:14
bkerensa:D16:14
nathwillnice16:14
bkerensakinda surprised CB doesnt offer a e-mail client by default16:15
nathwilli like the keyboard shortcuts in CB, which is why i tend to steal the configs for other dists i use OpenBox on16:15
nathwillwell16:15
bkerensawhat do they want me to use Pine :D16:15
nathwillno, mutt16:16
bkerensalol16:16
nathwillmutt, w3m, moc, mc, identicurse16:16
nathwillfugget about gtk sucka16:16
bkerensawhat do you use?16:17
nathwillfor mail?16:17
nathwillclaws-mail16:17
nathwillwith a different theme than the default16:17
nathwillcuz the default is ugly as sin16:17
nathwillbut claws-mail has fantastic filtering and processing rule tools16:18
bkerensaHmm16:18
nathwilli usually use that or thunderbird16:19
* bkerensa has to use Thunderbird.... LastPass Support, WiseStamp and other features16:19
bkerensa:D16:19
nathwilli'm not at all a fan of evolution16:19
bkerensanathwill: What do they call the thunderbird package for CB/Debian?16:21
nathwillicedove16:21
* bkerensa tried mozilla-thunderbird16:21
bkerensaI thought so16:21
bkerensa:P16:21
nathwillyeah, icedove and iceweasel are the non-mozilla-branded packages16:21
nathwillbut it's the exact same software16:21
bkerensaLOL16:21
bkerensanathwill: What are you using for music?16:22
bkerensa:D16:22
nathwilldeadbeef16:22
nathwilldepends on what you want16:22
bkerensa:P16:22
nathwilli use the last.fm client most of the time16:23
* bkerensa just installed rhythmbox16:23
bkerensa:D16:23
bkerensawhich has Last.fm plus everything else16:23
nathwilli like deadbeef for simplicity and lightweightness, but the mpd+sonata combination is also very popular in CB community16:23
* bkerensa is kind of considering paying the monthly cost of Spotify16:23
bkerensa=/16:23
nathwillit's bloody retarded that their native linux client requires a paid account16:23
bkerensayeah16:23
bkerensatheir excuse is rubbish16:24
bkerensasaying they dont know how to put in ads16:24
bkerensahonestly though Premium was nice16:24
bkerensathe offline mode for my phone and laptop16:25
bkerensa:D16:25
bkerensaBut now you have to have Facebook16:25
nathwillyeaaaah16:25
nathwillnot so cool16:25
nathwillslacker is good, and their new client has offline caching16:25
nathwillbut i don't think they have a native linux client16:25
nathwillit's all done thru the browser16:26
bkerensanathwill: How do I update the right-click menu? It didnt automatically add thunderbird and rhythmbox16:26
bkerensa:D16:26
nathwillit never does, that's what's great16:26
nathwillare you in CB?16:26
nathwillor ubuntu?16:26
bkerensaCB16:27
bkerensamenu.xml?16:27
nathwillsettings->openbox->gui menu editor16:27
nathwillor menu.xml16:27
nathwillfor the menu, i find it easier to use the gui (obmenu)16:27
bkerensauhhh16:29
bkerensaderp derp16:29
bkerensawhy did it not add to the menu?16:29
* bkerensa edited the menu.xml and added a item and saved 16:29
bkerensa=o16:29
nathwillopenbox --reconfigure ???16:30
nathwillmay need to reload it16:30
nathwilli don't have to reconfigure after using obmenu, but you might need to if you do it by hand16:30
bkerensayep16:30
bkerensa:)16:31
nathwillcool16:31
bkerensajust had to reload16:31
bkerensaodd :P16:31
bkerensanotably still some things that suck about LastPass16:32
* bkerensa uses 12-13 character strong passwords16:32
bkerensaso if I ever nuke one of my boxes its a fun process of resyncing everything16:33
bkerensa:D16:33
nathwilli bet16:33
nathwilli just have a funky algorthim i run through in my head to generate the pass16:36
bkerensaLOL16:37
nathwillthey're pseudo-random, and... between 10-20 char depending on the service16:37
bkerensawell for most sites I use a 13 char strong pass16:37
bkerensathen for like two or three things I use a similar 12 char strong pass (with a few changed chars)16:37
bkerensaidk I imagine my pass and setup is more secure than most companies16:38
bkerensa;)16:38
bkerensaI'm behind three firewalls16:38
bkerensa:P16:38
nathwillyikes16:38
bkerensaone at the gateway.... one at the router and another on my hub16:38
bkerensa:D16:38
bkerensaalthough I think I might setup a server in our telco closet16:39
bkerensathey have a rack in their but no servers16:39
bkerensa:)16:39
bkerensajust phone stuffs16:39
bkerensaIn fact they have a weird vault of a thing that houses the phone stuff it looks like a safe with a front safety glass panel.... I think IntegraTelecom handles that though16:40
nathwillinteresting16:41
bkerensanathwill: We should grab sushi soon ;) I know a good place out towards your neck of the woods16:44
nathwillhellz yeah16:45

bkerensa:(17:23
* bkerensa is hating Google right now17:23
bkerensafinally17:24
bkerensa:P17:24
bkerensatheir smtp is constantly down17:24
nathwillyou should host a mail server of your own!17:30
nathwillthen you can spend time hating yourself!17:31
tgm4883I am literally doing this guy's job today https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGS2tKQhdhY17:39
nathwillthat is the best movie ever17:39
tgm4883agreed17:39
bkerensanathwill: For redundancy local hosting of a mail server is unfeasible17:58
bkerensa:P17:58
bkerensatgm4883: I sent a mail to the list asking for Feedback on the Ocelot Release Party.... I'm thinking waiting a week or two after the 13th might be good17:58
bkerensaIt would help me out too because I'm still working to get stuff ready like t-shirts17:59
bkerensaand food17:59
tgm4883bkerensa, yea that might be better17:59

bkerensa:D19:30

bkerensaPeople who put price as $2 on CL for servers make me so mad19:59
bkerensa:P19:59
c_smithhello, got down to Fry's this morning, found out my original price range wouldn't cut it for the type of PC I want to build: a gaming PC.20:23
c_smith$800-$900 is what I should be aiming for, not $500 with $200 as a cushion.20:24
bkerensa-o20:28
c_smithayup, gonna be closer to Christmas when I get the money for it, possibly in January.20:41
c_smithbkerensa, if possible, I'd like to run the parts list by ya and get your take on them.20:42

Brian_Hnot for long we are working on a revamp lol22:39
bkerensaLOL22:39
bkerensaYou use a CMS platform?22:39
Brian_Hyea we will be using joomla22:39
c_smithhas anyone heard Dave-SB's version of Toccata and Fugue? pretty sick22:41
bkerensaBrian_H: WHAT???22:47
bkerensa=o22:47
bkerensaSerious?22:47
Brian_Hyea for what we are doing its a better solution than the alternatives that were presented22:47
bkerensaJoomla is like the most insecure CMS platform their is though22:47
bkerensa:P22:47
bkerensaHarvard used Joomla until they got hacked22:48
bkerensa:P22:48
Brian_Hdoh22:49
bkerensa:P22:49
Brian_HI'll have to tell the admins to lock it down22:49
bkerensayeah :)22:49
bkerensaa lot of modifications :D22:49
bkerensaatleast you didnt say "Were moving to PHPNuke"22:50
bkerensa:D22:50
Brian_Hhahaha this is very true22:50
c_smithwhat is PHPnuke and why is it so bad?22:51
bkerensaits a very old php based portal software :P22:52
bkerensaimho the top three most insecure CMS platforms are PHPNuke, Joomla and Typo322:53
bkerensa:D22:53
Brian_Hoh good, firefox 7 is out, was wondering when they were going to replace 6.02 ... it was getting quite old22:53
bkerensayeah22:53
bkerensa?22:53
bkerensaIm still hoping FF makes major improvements in speed22:53
bkerensa:D22:53
Brian_Hwell yea 6.0.2 is like what a week old? I mean comon! talk about a long release cycle22:53
c_smithso the FF 7 update finally made it to the Update servers?22:53
Brian_Hoh not yet22:54
bkerensaprobably in a few hours22:54
Brian_Hnot really looking forward to it breaking all my addons again lol22:54
c_smithmight as well check.... wonder if there's a way to check the build status.22:54
nathwilland the award for the most secure cms platform goes tooo.... jekyll!23:16
c_smithwhat about Mr. Hyde?23:19
nathwilloctopress?23:25
