[03:31] hey [03:32] i guess no ones here [03:32] ok bye [05:22] Don't you just love drive-bys? [05:22] like arcticchill360? [05:23] Stay awhile. We don't bit! [10:52] Morning. [11:02] morning JonathanD [11:12] hey [11:59] mornin all [12:35] Morning. [12:54] morning [13:00] hey waltman, jedijf [15:06] good bit to you all [17:11] anyone here into wifi security and cracking? i am a bit (or was a lot last year) and i saw a story today about WPA networks now being much easier to crack thanks to an exploit in WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Security). anyone else hear about that? [17:11] apparently WPS makes your router vulnerable, which is pretty much every Linksys and Cisco access point/router [17:11] and you cant turn it off i guess [17:12] when i get home im checking if my belkin has it, and if it does im flashing to DD-WRT if it supports my model. if not, time for a new router. [17:14] heres a link to a FB post I made: https://www.facebook.com/GeekyAdam/posts/250514835021959 [17:14] i set it public so u should be able to see it [17:15] or just friend request me, put #ubuntu-us-pa in msg or itll probably get deleted [17:21] jedijf: hey sorry just caught up on your responses to me... [17:22] trying to find php file i was working with to test commenting out nanorc php line, sec... [17:23] i literally forget what i was working on... [17:26] made up a new test.php file. with php include *uncommented* whitespace with no text to the right of it gets highlighted. with php include line *commented* out, the highlighting doesn't show up (neither does any syntax highlighting) [17:27] so it would appear my problem lies within the php include file...and any other include file that shows the whitespace highlighted [17:28] geez im really filling up the channel [17:28] anyways, ill check around online for an alternative php include file maybe [17:28] thanks [17:31] morecheese: comment out the php inclde in nanorc [17:31] the rc sets up highlighting for stuff [17:32] i know but then i lose all php syntax highlighting, so i need to alter the include file or find a new one...right? [17:33] or that [17:34] thanks for your diligent help === Joe_CoT is now known as Joe_C0T === Joe_C0T is now known as Joe_CoT [20:34] is there a way to stop F1 from opening help when im in a terminal? [20:35] i want to map F1 to something else in irssi, but it just opens help for gnome terminal === adom|afk is now known as adom [20:55] hey can users run cron scripts? [20:55] or create scripts for themselves [20:57] crontab -e [20:57] will open up the user crontab [20:59] pleia2: thanks :) [21:13] MutantTurkey: you said something several days ago I thought I could help you with but I have no idea now what it was. [21:14] darn [21:14] :[ [21:14] It may have been in #Plug [21:14] hmm [21:14] something about droid? [21:14] I recall talking about that [21:14] tablet. [21:14] right [21:14] You asked about a tablet. [21:14] tablets. [21:15] Galaxy Tab vs Ipad2 [21:15] I have a little 7 inch android tablet which I love. [21:15] And my dad just got one too. [21:15] Because he loved mine so much. [21:15] would you call your dad a techie? my mom wants one but isn't technically inclined [21:15] My dad doesn't know his email address. [21:16] Or how to find out what it is. [21:17] okay cool [21:17] also I have a little sister, a terrible twos toddler [21:17] she gets quite angry sometimes, she may throw a left hook or a few jabs at the screen [21:17] will it hold up? [21:18] also /r/philadelphia is my favorite [21:19] JonathanD: Interesting. How does he get people to send him email? [21:20] waltman: this is the same for many people I know. They have to lookup their own email [21:20] shocking! [21:20] madness! [21:21] blues brothers [21:21] Life must be so different for muggles. [21:21] I neds more [21:21] country blues brothers AND western blues brothers? [21:21] waltman: today at work my boss asks me in a very heavy russia/romaiana accent saying "how to take this away and points at her homepage" [21:21] took like 20 minutes to figure out she wanted to change it to anyother page [21:22] "click on something"? [21:22] where do you work? [21:23] oh right, a turkey farm :) [21:23] at Flori's Cafe' [21:23] it's in Willow Grove [21:23] up the street from the pacs meeting place giant [21:24] and your boss doesn't know how to use a web browser? [21:24] nope [21:24] not really [21:24] I dunno [21:24] wow [21:24] how is she at, say, breathing? [21:24] she watches romainian soap operas all day [21:24] probably has trouble, she smokes to much [21:24] nice work if you can get it [21:25] the place has great food [21:25] is her name Flori? [21:25] yes [21:25] :-) [21:26] wild guess! [21:26] heading home & [21:26] pleia2: with cron, can I ask it to run a command with arguments? like */10 * * * * /usr/bin/foo -b blarg honk honk blarg [21:27] yes [21:27] thanks [21:29] pleia2: what about piping? :-) [21:29] MutantTurkey: you should really be doing tests to learn how to use it :) [21:30] but yes, pipes are fine [21:30] :-) it's on an already deployed server [21:30] I don't want to mess with it [21:32] waltman: he makes me tell them. [21:32] Or he just doesn't. [21:32] MutantTurkey: the one I have probably would. It's solidly built. [21:32] And not overly expensive. [21:33] AND it fits in my jacket pocket. [21:33] wow cool [21:34] AND they're out of stock everywhere. Sorry, dad got the last one. [21:34] http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16858161002 is what I have. [21:34] :[ [21:34] I am looking at 10" ones anyhow [21:35] MutantTurkey: don't like 10" :/ [21:35] They don't fit in pocket. [21:35] MutantTurkey: crissi has an ipad now, too. [21:35] women have large purses [21:35] Yeah. She keeps hers in her purse. actually. [21:36] ASUS EEE Transformer is amazing. <-- my $.02 [21:36] Apparently my dad was up til midnight playing angry birds. [21:36] adom: looks it to me, I didn't want to spend that kind of money. [21:36] The wintec was $200, the ipad we didn't pay for. Work gave them out as part of our christmas bonus. [21:37] JonathanD: yeah its not the cheapest, but for the money compared to others its a heck of a machine [21:37] the Kindle Fire is only like $200 I think [21:37] It is. [21:37] It's not bad, either. My nieces have those. [21:37] but yeah, optional full keyboard for the Transformer is what got me [21:37] plus the keyboard has its own battery [21:37] adom: I've realized if I'm somewhere I can use a keyboard, I'd rather pull out my thinkpad. [21:38] so if your tablet is going dead, plug in the keyboard dock and you've got 6 more hours [21:38] well [21:38] its just nice to have in a pinch [21:38] and if I'm not, the tablet is "good enough" [21:38] adom: I also have a full size folding pocket keyboard. [21:38] for my phone and teblet. [21:38] *tablet [21:38] you're at a coffee shop, work calls, servers down you need to do some commandline remote stuff. you pull out the keyboard dock base and go at it [21:38] Got it at the thrift store. $18. [21:39] JonathanD: oh cool [21:39] lucky [21:39] They have had some sweet tech deals at the thrift store lately. [21:39] LCDs for $25. Sometimes less. [21:39] everyone talks about finding geek stuff at thrift stores. up here in shithole Erie, our thrift storese have nothing but old sweaters, stained couches, and TVs from the 70s. [21:40] In one day I got 2 LCDs and the keyboard. [21:40] never, NEVER seen an LCD at a thrift store [21:40] The LCDs were $13 and $6.50 [21:40] a few CRT monitors *maybe* [21:40] nice [21:40] 17 inch [21:40] 1280x1024 [21:40] wow [21:40] Servicible, especially for that price. [21:40] thats decent [21:40] id have a wall of LCDs [21:40] The 6.50 on has a scratch on the glass. [21:41] Can't tell when it's on. [21:41] meh, log watcher [21:41] I actually bought them to sell to people at work. [21:41] ;P [21:41] ha [21:41] right now they're down in my workshop though. [21:41] and I'm slightly tempted just to keep them. [21:42] We ended up spending over $100 that day at the thrift store and filled the whole car pretty much. [21:42] I love my thinkpad [21:42] :-) [21:42] loveee it [21:42] Thinkpads rock. [21:42] wish I got the upgrade screen thouhg [21:42] MutantTurkey: I found one here, in the trash. [21:42] my viewing angle sucks HARD. [21:42] and it double sucks because watching movies is unbearable basically [21:42] Gave it to josh. [21:42] I have the x220 [21:43] my mom loves it. she's rocking a 8 year old Dell business lappy [21:43] which is chugging along amazingly [21:43] I have a T61, T60, T42, and A21m. [21:43] what do you think of the R series [21:43] Always carry a spare, I say. [21:43] I've never had an R. [21:43] and what do you think about the lenovo outlet [21:43] I've never purchased from the outlet personally. [21:43] okay [21:43] :-) [21:43] But I've worked with outlet machines, no issues. [21:44] I also have an x200 tablet (on loan) [21:44] Which is a nifty little machine. If only touch worked on unity... [21:45] i have a T61 which is my DJing/music laptop...VirtualDJ and midi turntables. its all in a "gig backpack" with DJ headphones and audio cords. [21:45] MutantTurkey: I've found lenovo hasn't really made things worse. [21:45] I hate unity [21:45] JonathanD: I am not totally impressed with my lappy [21:45] it's broken [21:45] MutantTurkey: what lappy? [21:45] top part of the screen is cracked [21:45] my x220 [21:45] oh [21:45] I haven't sent it back yet [21:45] I think you mentioned that. [21:45] a long time ago. [21:45] because I am to damned dependent on it [21:46] yeah. [21:46] :/ [21:46] I have a 2 year warranty though [21:46] so. [21:46] MutantTurkey: you could borrow one of mine. [21:46] the only complaint i have for my T61 is that the left control button is to the right of the function button, which i ALWAYS hit thinking its control [21:46] I've chipped a few pieces of plastic off my 61 now. [21:46] JonathanD: I also am having trouble finding who to call [21:46] the support numbers are like hard to locate [21:46] no easy info [21:46] MutantTurkey: remind me later, I'll help you out. [21:47] MutantTurkey: I think you can call IBMs support number, still. [21:47] and get to the right place. [21:47] okay cool [21:47] Depending on the warrenty, IBM techs service it. [21:47] i've got to figure it out soon [21:47] I just pulled out the original box so hopefully I can find the info pamphlet also [21:48] 1–800–426–7378 [21:48] Try that. At worse they'll tell you they don't support that. [21:48] But I think there are still interconnects between them. [21:48] MutantTurkey: and seriously, if you want to borrow something while it's serviced, let me know. [21:49] I will do [21:49] I don't have a spare cord, but yours should work with the T60 [21:49] ok [21:49] if you have a yellow plug, anyway. [21:49] does it run linux windows what? [21:49] yellow plug = check [21:49] well, I'm putting the factory disk back in it tonight. [21:50] So it'll be the factory build, Xp probably. [21:51] MutantTurkey: if so you can wipe the main disk, just leave the recovery partition in case I sell it or something later. [21:52] are you kidding? I love XP [21:52] and are you selling it? [21:52] I would possibly interested in purchasing it [21:53] I might be. [21:53] I've been keeping it as a backup. [21:53] okay well then keep it [21:53] :-) [21:53] Like you, I would die if my laptop failed. [21:53] :p [21:53] I can't stand using my desktop anymore [21:53] It's my whole life on here. [21:53] actually its just collecting dust. [21:53] Likewise [21:54] The only thing I don't do is game. Thats on the desktop. [21:54] makes sense [21:54] desktops getting a new hardrive tonight :) [21:54] the eraserhead isn't good for shooter games [21:54] MutantTurkey: works pretty well for me... [21:55] really? [21:55] MutantTurkey: it's less precise, but you have more range. [21:55] So it depends on the game. [21:55] maybe I'm still a padewon [21:55] by range I mean, you don't have to lift the mouse like a desktop [21:55] I stick with the keys most of the time [21:55] right that is a advantage [22:30] Good evening all [22:32] wohoo my work today did an 64% performance increase to our homepage for drexel!!! [22:33] BOSS! [22:33] i even did a whole test script using curl and then used gnumeric to average the results [22:33] feeling great [22:35] philly++ last weekend homicide free [22:39] wow [22:41] souped up your boss's web site, heh, MutantTurkey ? [22:43] MutantTurkey: you're at drexel? [22:44] and you have a homepage there? [22:44] waltman: your page 303'ing? [22:44] 404 [22:44] night typing [22:44] waltman: working on a math project [22:44] for the math forum [22:45] waltman: doing an internship therre [22:45] I don't go there though [22:45] No, it looks ok. [22:45] thinking about it [22:45] MutantTurkey: Ah, cool. I know a lot of people who went through there. [22:45] http://144.118.94.210/mathimages/index.php/Main_Page I don't think that is externally viewable [22:45] does it load up? [22:45] yep! [22:45] really? [22:45] yep! [22:46] should server up in 2.X seconds [22:46] the real one is here http://mathforum.org/mathimages/index.php/Main_Page [22:46] loads in like 6-7 [22:46] Welcome all those who enjoy interesting images, to the Math Images Project! [22:46] the worst designed wiki of all time [22:46] I am doing my part to help reorganize it [22:47] nice [22:50] 64 percent in one day [22:50] I think i'll wait till tomorrow to announce my other bumps [23:19] last modified 23 July 2010 [23:19] What were you changing ? [23:20] some sub page ? [23:26] with mediawiki custom php has to be embedded with an external page [23:26] so basically that page never ever changes [23:26] because it includes another page (the real homepage)
