jcastroI've had a unicomp before02:13
jcastrolooking for something new02:13
rick_h__and this one comes in a quiet02:13
jcastroThese ducky's seem highly regarded02:13
rick_h__so I've got one in blue with clicky, and one in brown that's not02:13

jcastrohttp://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=Island:1306302:17
jcastrothis is the one I'm eyeing02:17
jcastrothey make different color combos02:17
rick_h__jcastro: I can bring this to budapest?02:17
jcastrothe black on black looks badass though02:18
jcastrothey also make a backlit version02:18
jcastrohttp://www.hardwarezone.com.sg/product-ducky-dk-9008-shine02:18
jcastrobut not sure about that02:18
jcastrorick_h__: bring what to budapest?02:18
rick_h__my leopold02:19
rick_h__http://www.wasdkeyboards.com/index.php/02:19
jcastrooh man02:19
jcastrothe one on the page looks awesome02:19
rick_h__yea, try out the keyboard builder02:20
rick_h__I got some replacement keycaps for mine there02:20
rick_h__$1 a cap isn't bad for a little bit of color02:20
jcastrooh nice02:20
jcastroI can make an ubuntu keyboard02:20
jcastrowith the kb shortcuts I care about02:21
rick_h__yea, no idea if their keyboards are any good, but it's kind of sweet ui and website02:21
jcastrocherry mx switches02:21
rick_h__yep02:21
jcastrois really what I am looking for02:21
jcastrothe rest is details02:22
rick_h__you'd hope02:22
rick_h__this leopols is the only one I've used with cherry switches so not sure if they can vary much with the rest of the casing02:22
jcastroseems like the perf preference is on the kind of mx it is02:23
jcastrogamers like black, normal people like me probably brown, etc.02:23
jcastroof course, I don't have a local place where I would be able to try they02:23
rick_h__right, I've got blue and brown02:24
rick_h__blue has some noise to it, brown pretty quiet/normal keyboard sounding02:24
rick_h__I got the brown for the office since it was a cube farm02:24
rick_h__sometime I've got to try the reds02:25
jcastroyou like the browns?02:27
rick_h__jcastro: anyway, that's what I'm rolling with. Let me know if you want me to try to bring one to try out if you've not bought something yet02:27
jcastroman this site is awesome02:28
jcastrolayouts02:28
rick_h__jcastro: not as much, I like the click sound, but I'm still a fan of the unicomp with the buckle spring02:28
jcastrocolor combos02:28
rick_h__yea, it's pretty sweet, customize a little bit02:28
rick_h__great thing with the cherry's is that the keycaps are compatible pretty much02:28
rick_h__I've got blue meta keys, red esc/c keys, and orange wads02:28

rick_h__morning12:35
brouschsnap-l: half off "arduino in action" with code dotd1216cc http://www.manning.com/mevans/13:02
Wolfgercool13:03
WolfgerI really need to get back to playing around with my arduino13:04
brouschyou're an arduinee too?13:05
Wolfgerarduinee wannabee13:05
brouschi just made that up. do you like it?13:05
WolfgerI got one, played with it a bit, then it just kinda fell off my radar. I was going to automate some stuff for Halloween, but I suffered from lack of any concrete ideas13:06
WolfgerI do. It's good13:06
Wolfgerbrousch++13:06
WolfgerI need to stop buying tech books and use the ones I have more.13:08
WolfgerI have a bunch (mostly off the MicroCenter bargain rack) that I've never even cracked.13:09
WolfgerIn my defense, a lot of those I bought were for Java, and I'm no longer a Java dev and don't really like the language. :-p13:27
brouschyou were a java dev?13:27
WolfgerBriefly. Then Chrysler offshored our dev and support group.13:29
brouschouch13:30
snap-lbrousch: Yeah, Java has a lot of pain associated with it for Wolfger and I13:54
snap-lI was promised that I would be tasked with doing some porting work in Java at some point, then I became a Technical Resource ne Project Manager.13:54
snap-lIt kinda fucks with you13:55
snap-lThat and the whole development to production process for FieldConnect was pretty brutal14:00
snap-lwhen it comes right down to it, Chrysler was a pretty shit place for developers.14:00
WolfgerHey, I saw on Monster that Morpace is hiring... :-)14:01

brouschwait, now it works14:05
brouschthat is messed up14:05
brouschew! ASP and IIS14:05
WolfgerYeah, the link was e-mailed to me, so it probably did have some personalization in it14:07
Wolfgerwhich is lame. That should be based off of a secure login, not a URL.14:07
brouschit went away the second time14:08
rick_h__woot, phone is local...now to get it to my door!14:14
