[07:19] <Unit193> jrgifford: You weren't supposed to see that.... But thanks?
[07:26] <Unit193> Just read, you think I'm friendly? I got you fooled but good ;)
[12:07] <jrgifford> Unit193: hehe. ;)
[22:13] <jandrusk> Is there going to be a boycott of AskUbuntu.com since they are hosted on GoDaddy?
[22:15] <jrgifford> jandrusk: no.
[22:15] <jrgifford> SE is moving somewhere else.
[22:16] <Unit193> First I heard of it
[22:16] <jrgifford> http://meta.stackoverflow.com/a/116918/156713
[22:16] <Unit193> Ah
[22:16] <jrgifford> Unit193: SOPA protest, since GoDaddy supports it.
[22:16] <jrgifford> a lot of folks are moving away from GoDaddy.
[22:16] <jrgifford> i'm still with (mt) though, always have been.
[22:17] <Unit193> "We’ve listened to our customers. Go Daddy is no longer supporting the SOPA legislation. Click here to find out more."
[22:17] <Unit193> http://support.godaddy.com/godaddy/go-daddys-position-on-sopa/
[22:18] <jrgifford> however...
[22:18] <jrgifford> they are still on the House record as supporting SOPA
[22:18] <jrgifford> so for all intents and purposes, they do.
[22:18] <jrgifford> not to mention they are a sleezy bunch of elephant killin' idiots.
[22:19] <jandrusk> Yes, and I think the only reason they are retracting is due to the noise that was made. Still don't trust them.
[22:19] <jrgifford> got that right jandrusk
[22:19] <jandrusk> If they truely were against it, they would have never supported it.
[22:20] <jandrusk> MarkMonitor who hosts Ubuntu.com seems to have language on their front page indicating supporting SOPA.
[22:20] <jandrusk> Fight Counterfeiting & Piracy
[22:20] <jandrusk> "Shut down illegal sales and downloads"
[22:20] <jrgifford> unless they say "We support SOPA/Protect-IP", they are fine
[22:21] <jrgifford> nobody likes piracy
[22:21] <jrgifford> particularly a web hosting co.
[22:21] <jandrusk> Even though they say, "The answer: Rights owners must pinpoint, monitor, and enforce across as many online distribution and promotional channels as possible to shut down online counterfeit sales and pirated digital content."?
[22:22] <jandrusk> That to me goes beyond web hosting.
[22:22] <jrgifford> well, they use PHP.
[22:22] <jrgifford> that means I don't trust them anyway. ;)
[22:22] <Unit193> Granted, I also wouldn't recommend GoDaddy anyway, I have however recommended 1and1....
[22:23] <jrgifford> 1&1? Eh. had a bad experience with them once.
[22:23] <jandrusk> PHP? What do you have against PHP?
[22:23] <Unit193> It's no his Ruby ;)
[22:23] <jandrusk> Is your preference CGI?
[22:23] <jrgifford> 'MarkMonitor has earned the reputation of delivering world-class brand protection solutions to over 50 of the Fortune 100 companies. ' - interesting.
[22:23] <jrgifford> jandrusk: i don't like reading PHP.
[22:23] <jrgifford> if I don't have to touch it, i'm fine. otherwise, ugh.
[22:24] <jandrusk> It's the curly braces, isn't it?
[22:24] <jrgifford> i use curly braces in some of my ruby code.
[22:24] <jrgifford> i just don't like things that aren't in computer english. *shudder*
[22:24] <jandrusk> Too "C" like?
[22:25] <jrgifford> high level langs for me. i'll let the kernel team play around with C, D and F. i'll stick with Ruby and the occasional perl.
[22:25] <jrgifford> jandrusk: btw,
[22:25] <jandrusk> lol
