[00:40] I'm OK with this no snow thing. [00:44] I hate you. [00:44] =( [01:32] Had an awesome interview. [01:33] Love it when I have an interview that makes me want to hang out with the band afterward. [01:40] very cool man, congrats [01:45] I need to browse around launchpad in preparation for my 10 minute monday interview [01:47] I'm gonna namedrop rick_h all the time. [01:48] "We go clubbin' on the weekends, rick_h and I." [01:49] tjagoda: heh, not sure that's the best bet yet. [01:50] I am kidding. [01:50] Except the part about clubbing. [01:50] Thats 300% truth. [01:51] woot! do do do dum dum dum clubbing [01:52] http://r721.livejournal.com/10526.html [01:52] Holy christ [02:29] https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/talks/wat [02:29] ^ That is good. [02:29] yea, Gary is awesome [02:30] man, having co-workers in Australia sucks. I've been working late/early every night since I got back from budapest [02:30] don't they know it's dark outside?! [02:30] wow is there something making ou have those weird hours? [02:31] we started a group project in budapest we're trying to get landed still [02:31] and it was kind of my baby so I'm the goto for "this is broken, how do we fix it?" [02:31] I wonder how often the support dudes travel [02:32] right now travel is near nil [02:32] unless you're the cloud folks really [02:32] Surges up around UDS times probably? [02:33] it depends on where you're at. LP only sends one/two guys to UDS [02:33] unity guys go more often to get feedback/discuss that, etc [02:33] Makes sense [02:35] I am not opposed to travel [02:35] But constant large trips would grate on me eventually I think [02:35] yea, it's cool. But I don't think you'd see a ton of it personally [02:35] Like those roaming consultants who live out of suitcases 323 days out of the year [02:35] after pycon I think I'll be grounded the rest of the year [02:35] I dont understand how thats possible [02:35] heh, like jjesse :) [02:37] hey i was only in a hotel 103 nights this year [02:37] <_stink_> damn [02:38] i think my high is 130? [02:38] so its down [02:38] tjagoda: Wow, that's disgusting [02:39] 2 weeks in a row is pretty doable, the 3rd week is hard [02:39] if i trail 4 weeks in a row I take my wife and sone w/ me [02:42] Our ERP consultant [02:43] Logged 300+ hotel days last year [02:43] I think it was in the 330's [02:43] i have some co-workers like that [02:43] months on the road [02:46] <_stink_> god [02:46] <_stink_> i hope they don't know anyone [02:47] the head of our consultants joke that employees aren't allowed to either be married or marry :) [02:47] Its insane [02:47] you have to live in some kind of tiny condo or something [02:47] there is no way you can afford to have a lawn with 330 hotel days =P [03:11] screw even renting, just stay in a hotel at "home" if you're only there 35 days/year [03:11] exactly [03:11] it'd be free with all your points, anyway [03:11] as long as you gt all the bonuses :) [03:12] I dont even comprehend that much travel logistically [03:12] Laundry would be painful [03:13] not really most hotels will do it for you [03:13] dry clean etc [03:13] This is news to me [03:13] it will cost you [03:13] <--- obviously not a consultant [03:13] but they will take care of it [11:41] Ugh [11:41] I mean, morning [12:23] yea, TGIF [12:25] http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811112336 <- Hmmmm... [12:30] morning [12:36] Ordered [12:36] ooh, fancy case [12:38] Yeah, need some better airflow for this machine [12:38] Mobo is at 55c [12:43] mostly better today [12:44] mostly better? [12:44] me [12:44] ugh, lucky @!#$@ [12:44] i think it's intestinal blockage. moving slowly [12:44] at least i can move today [12:44] oh yummy, my yogurt tastes a ton better now thanks [12:45] had to cancel my presentation yesterday [12:45] yogurt. damn that's a good idea [12:45] i might run out and get some [12:46] yogurt and a piece of fruit, standard 150cal breakfast wheeee [12:46] though I think this weekend with the wife away the boy and I might go out and get some real breakfast out :) [12:47] denny's? [12:47] naw, Mels, local place [12:48] Mel's Diner? Say "hi" to Alice, Flo, and Vera. [12:48] so you're gonna be skinnier than i am next time i see you? [12:48] Wolfger: yea, thuogh I don't think Alice is there [12:48] also: Good morning [12:49] brousch: 206 on weigh in day wed. Lowest in about a decade for me [12:49] also: today is going to be a Yakety Sax day, I can feel it... [12:49] hah [12:49] rick_h: awesome! [12:49] wow, i was 205 this morning, and that's because i lost like 5lbs yesterday [12:49] I think you're a little bit taller than me though [12:49] 205, 206... I need to get way back down there again [12:50] but yea, by the time you see me next (release party maybe?) I'm hoping to be < 200 for the first time since college [12:50] * snap-l whistles [12:50] 205 is like my goal weight. [12:50] congrats [12:50] if I can kill this damn cold and get back to the gym [12:50] ugh...sucky week [12:50] that's awesome, rick_h ! [12:50] bah, bad timing on responses [12:51] hah! "Goooooo cold!" [12:51] http://openmetalcast.com/2012/01/27/open-metalcast-special-interview-episode-sentient-machine/ [12:51] oh crap, touchpad on woot [12:51] and well...with HP actually starting to OSS some stuff...damn temptations [12:51] i thought those were all gone [12:52] ouch. $219 [12:52] yea [12:52] weren't they selling for $99? [12:52] yea [13:30] is there a way to get a list of all packages installed on my computer, and turn that list into a script so that i could set up another computer the same way? [13:30] all repos too [13:31] like pip freeze for ubuntu [13:33] yea, dpkg -l [13:33] http://www.ubuntugeek.com/clone-your-ubuntu-installation.html [13:34] Ohi [13:34] http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/397380_298633056849285_250800231632568_835023_1997772699_n.jpg [13:34] that doesn't get the PPAs [13:34] but it's a good start [13:35] brousch: yea, but how many ppas do you have? [13:35] half a dozen [13:36] deadsnakes, chrome, handbrake, medibuntu, ubuntuone-extras, google music [13:41] What is the lpstat switch to show connection details for printers? [13:42] Does brousch live in cups? [13:42] heck no [13:43] Got it. [13:43] -s works. [13:50] Brousch uses windows print services? [13:50] my computers print to the printers [13:52] snap-l: ever seen anything that looked like it'd be fun for a 2yr old to drum on? [13:52] the boy is requesting B.B. King and likes to "bang bang drum!" [13:53] I like to pose questions and then immediately leave the room. [13:54] rick_h: my son liked those cheap plastic drum sets [13:54] they last about 6 months, but they're fun [13:54] tjagoda: i noticed [13:54] tjagoda: my computers print directly to our networked printers [13:56] rick_h: you can see he was getting a little big for them at age 3 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvgj40zQtEU [13:57] hah! [13:57] thinking of getting this: http://www.amazon.com/Remo-Rhythm-Club-Floor-Tom/dp/B0002EB5JO/ref=pd_bxgy_MI_img_c [13:58] brousch: I like that he rolls with the cymbals upside down [13:58] someone linked to one of those a few weeks ago [13:59] it looks like it has a real head, could be loud [13:59] brousch: yea, reviews are solid, might try that out and see where he goes with it [13:59] cheap [13:59] inexpensive i should say [13:59] yea, exactly, first start to see [14:00] I also like that he rolls with the golf club [14:00] they must have something at day care because he comes home talking about "bang bang drum!" [14:00] You're breeding him to be a Tiger Woods rockstar hybrid [14:00] tjagoda: he was always losing his drum sticks [14:00] lol [14:00] "Lose THIS." [14:01] man, the abuse that drum set must have taken over time... [14:01] all of the toms broke off [14:01] He just destroys the cymbal over and over again, its awesome [14:01] he went through 2 or 3 of those cheap sets [14:02] fun times [14:02] better than destroying the pots/pans I imagine [14:02] now he has a real drum set and it's so loud we listen from a floor away [14:04] he started with pots and pans. used to drag them all out on the floor, line them up, and go to town with a wooden spoon [14:08] rick_h: We got my little niece something similar [14:08] let me find the link [14:09] http://www.amazon.com/Remo-Percussion-Diameter-Mallet-Forest/dp/B0002F7KUG/ref=pd_sim_t_18 [14:09] It's pretty solid, and comes with two mallets. [14:09] snap-l: ah very cool [14:10] The tone is a little "off", but it's a quality instrument [14:10] at the least, it'll take some doing for him to undo it. [14:12] oh this is awesome http://www.droid-life.com/2012/01/26/after-update-googles-music-manager-allows-download-of-all-your-music-straight-from-the-cloud/ [14:12] brousch: Nice! [14:12] now i can pull my music out of my dropbox backup [14:13] brousch: How is George doing with his drumming? [14:13] snap-l: very good [14:13] he has been addicted to the 20th century fox fanfare and first song of star wars for a few weeks now. he's really getting them down [14:14] Hah [14:14] he brings his laptop downstairs, cranks it up, and plays along with youtube videos [14:14] drum-corps. [14:14] When he's old enough, and still interested, definitely check those out [14:15] also wii music has a dedicated drum set using the wii fit pad. it's pretty cool [14:15] I never did those (was in marching band instead), but from what I've heard, they'll give you some wicked chops [14:15] brousch: I managed to pass on Wii Music. Is it fun? [14:15] i'm aweful at it, but george and my wife do well [14:16] Heh [14:16] awful [14:16] though really how bad i am can inspire awe [14:16] Oh c'mon. :) [14:16] You just need practice. ;) [14:16] you mean check out this thing? http://www.dci.org/corps/ [14:17] i'm not bad at the cowbell [14:17] Something similar [14:17] Not sure how much they have local [14:17] and not necessarily the competitive aspect (that might kill off the enthusiasm) [14:20] Wow, so my order already has a tracking number from NewEgg [14:20] why again would I pay $2.99 for the expedited order packaging? [14:22] Though I'm a little annoyed that UPS won't let me track it yet (even if just to say "hey, we just have the order" [14:30] snap-l: might not have reached a UPS center yet [14:31] I'm waiting on my replacement keyboard for my T60,.. apprently it's coming from china because it's taking 2-3weeks [14:32] my e key plastic spring broken in half, ... eh 7+ years of abuse... [14:36] nullspace: you've been abusing E for 7 years? you must be a fun guy to hang out with [14:42] ;) [14:43] nullspace: Yeah, better to replace the whole keyboard than try to replace those plastic springs [14:43] those are a PITA [14:49] yum pita ..... [14:57] Makes you yearn for the 50's, those plastic springs. [14:57] A time where everything was made of solid metal, and then coated in asbestos. [14:57] Ahhhh... [15:03] then dipped in mercury before being painted with lead [15:37] And summarily used as water pipe. [15:42] awesome, update decided to break xlock, sucktastic [15:46] judging by the name, that is a screensaver locker? [15:47] so i assume the update addresses the recent bug where you could unlock any linux computer with a certain key combo [15:48] lol [15:48] Yay security [15:48] Still better than old school windows passwords, where the cancel button is actually just a bypass button [15:49] nullspace: Considering the update was to improve security for X, I'm not surprised. [15:54] Ubuntu is just painfully ripping bandaids off for you [15:54] Your welcome! [15:54] You're* [15:54] wasn't that the problem? There was some quick/easy way to bypass the xlock screen? [16:06] rick_h: I saw that but could never reproduce it [17:21] http://trollitc.com/2012/01/the-five-foot-square/ [17:21] And now you know. [17:29] http://www.reddit.com/r/fossworldproblems/comments/ozc8i/every_recruiter_wants_me_to_convert_my/ [17:30] snap-l++ [17:46] Wolfger: http://jobs.perl.org/job/15446 [18:01] nifty [18:03] anyone know what kind of disk image testdrive creates? [18:06] i would assume virtualbox, but i am just assuming [18:25] Gah, just realized that the connection I had my headphones wasn't tight. Was wondering why it sounded like everything was out of phase. [18:25] snap-l: heh, I had that yesterday "damn I'm having to crank this volume up...wtf" [18:26] rick_h: Well, even better: I just TOUCHED the back of this machine, and it corrected. [18:27] I eagerly await whatever bad-ground is in store for me. ;) [18:30] Random disconnect? [18:30] Did anybody else get that? [18:30] net split [18:31] geezumpete. no wonder people don't like to develop for android http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2012/01/say-goodbye-to-menu-button.html [18:31] Ahh [18:31] I suddenly became concerned for the health of my T1's. [18:35] brousch: If you think that is bad, think of being an Apple Developer sometime. :) [18:35] they don't do things like remove the menu button [18:36] No, they don't giv you a menu button to start. :) [18:36] i assume they give you standard way to access a "menu" [18:37] No, they give you an action-bar-alike [18:37] don't remember what it's called offhand [18:37] I can see why they're getting away from menu thought [18:38] It's a catch-all command [18:38] well that's fine. it's just that changing something as basic as the menu button is silly [18:40] ...like replacing menus with a HUD for searching commands? =( [18:40] indeed [18:40] Brousch wants his good ol' gnome [18:40] I don't see the big deal, personally. [18:41] All these new-fangled user interfaces [18:41] i have it. it's called KDE with two panels [18:41] menu feels very lazy to me [18:41] I will have to see how HUD works. [18:41] I'm very used to reading menus to figure out what I need to do [18:41] tjagoda: ++ [18:41] just trying to formulate my needs into words could become tiresome [18:42] WEll, I'm reserving judgement until I see it [18:42] these are the internets. you are free to judge with no knowledge [18:42] I'm just waiting for the NEXTStep clock as Unity Lens. [18:47] anyone here happen to hear some jet planes or something flying overhead in the middle of the night? [18:47] around 1:30 AM or so [18:48] It's just the black helicopters doing maneuvers over your house [18:48] pay them no mind [18:49] The_Machine: it was obama arriving [18:49] oh it was? [18:49] i assume [18:49] scared the shit out of me [18:49] and unless they came through the front door, I would not have heard them [18:49] they went for 30 mins [18:49] and were circuling [18:49] circling even [18:49] * The_Machine doesn't know why he's retarded [18:49] usually it's genetic [18:49] The_Machine: It's likely patrolling airspace [18:50] yea. wow. They were right over our house several times. [18:51] cripes: http://developer.android.com/design/style/writing.html [18:54] snap-l: you're my resident gpg expert [18:55] snap-l: I want to sign a .tar.gz and I want to tell it which key to use? [18:55] I don't see any flag for saying "using this key" [18:55] Do you only have one key in the keyring? [18:56] usually if I have more than one, it'll prompt [18:56] yea, I've got a sub key of my main that's my work email [18:56] I want to sign it iwth my work email [18:56] hmm, actually it's not a sub I don't think [18:57] Huh, that's weird. Just signed a file, and it used the first one. [18:57] but yea, not giving me the option [18:57] right [18:58] Man page says you can set it using --default-key or --local-user [18:58] but that'll just tell it which to select as the default [18:59] so it can be changed, but it looks like it's on a per-instance basis [18:59] ie: if you have to change repeatedly, it'll be a PITA. [18:59] ok, that'll work for now [19:07] qcow2 is default testdrive disk image. [19:07] there i go disagreeing with brousch again :p [19:09] see! [19:10] wow, never heard of that one [19:10] apparently i have not been freetarded enough with my virtual machines [19:19] apparently not :) [19:19] <3 kvm [19:32] http://marquee.blogs.cnn.com/2012/01/27/welcome-back-kotters-robert-hegyes-has-died/?hpt=hp_t3 [19:39] Part of me is waiting for him to show up tomorrow with a note saying "Please excuse his absence yesterday. He died. Signed, Epstein's Mother." [19:57] Wolfger: heh [19:58] Man, Sphix is making me feel like a bad developer [19:59] using automodule to create documentation automatically, but what's coming back is pretty bad [19:59] that's assuming anything comes back at all. [19:59] That, and not using "if __name__ == '__main__'" for determining of something is called directly. [20:00] * snap-l hangs head in shame. [22:08] lol [22:08] whip snap-l into shape
