| snap-l | rick_h: What the hell is with the countdown? | 00:51 |
|---|---|---|
| brousch | snap-l: http://paste.mitechie.com/show/584/ | 10:45 |
| rick_h | morning | 10:54 |
| snap-l | Welcome back to Michigan | 11:06 |
| snap-l | And what, pray tell, is the dignificance of 3/29 at 9:41:06? | 11:07 |
| rick_h | party | 11:07 |
| rick_h | snap-l: it's https://store.yubico.com/store/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=73&osCsid=9c507929d46139feac0df2ed001d3dca | 11:07 |
| rick_h | either I bump it or the boy bumps it and it dumps the code to the screen active window and hits enter | 11:07 |
| snap-l | Hah, OK. :) | 11:07 |
| rick_h | I'm moving it to another usb port to try to not hit it as often | 11:08 |
| rick_h | but it just barely sticks out and just picks up being touched | 11:08 |
| snap-l | What platforms use it, or is it just for work auth? | 11:09 |
| rick_h | for work is the reason I picked it up | 11:09 |
| rick_h | there's some standard stuff that uses it I guess, but not for everything. | 11:10 |
| snap-l | Ah, so they let you expense it, and you get to keep it? | 11:10 |
| snap-l | or was it "here's the options, you pick what you want to use?" | 11:11 |
| rick_h | it was more here's a list of tools to use. I've also got an android app and I figured a button on the laptop would be the fastest/easiest to use | 11:20 |
| snap-l | Yeah, definitely. | 11:25 |
| brousch | ug mondays | 12:46 |
| brousch | hard drive in the dell is dying. looks like i'll be slumming on the MBP | 12:46 |
| jrwren | gmorn | 12:51 |
| jrwren | my server has been limping along iwth a dying hard drive for over a year. | 12:52 |
| jrwren | so maybe it isn't "dying" as much as it is partially disabled. | 12:52 |
| snap-l | jrwren: Any particular reason you haven't replaced it yet? :) | 12:53 |
| jrwren | that would require a few free hours of my time | 12:53 |
| jrwren | i've no wish to spend my time that way | 12:54 |
| jrwren | i'd rather just power cycle that server every month when it freezes | 12:54 |
| snap-l | of course. | 12:54 |
| jrwren | up 19 days now. whoo hoo! | 12:54 |
| snap-l | and when the drive completely dies? :) | 12:54 |
| jrwren | restore from backup and spend the 2hrs then. | 12:54 |
| brousch | i have both running right now while i move all my crap over | 12:54 |
| snap-l | I take it this server isn't doing much | 12:54 |
| jrwren | its my primary home server. | 12:54 |
| jrwren | it does everything for me. | 12:55 |
| brousch | being totally down would be very bad | 12:55 |
| snap-l | jrwren: I see | 12:55 |
| snap-l | jrwren: I hope you test your backups. | 12:55 |
| jrwren | but it only hurts me and my wife. we can't watch "our shows" | 12:55 |
| jrwren | hehe. | 12:55 |
| jrwren | i dno't really test my backups. | 12:55 |
| jrwren | but they are just tars. | 12:55 |
| brousch | unfortunately i had the MBP wiped and ready for sale | 12:55 |
| jrwren | one of a very few backup approaches that have never failed for me | 12:55 |
| snap-l | jrwren: I'm glad you're a developer and not a sysadmin. :) | 12:55 |
| jrwren | snap-l: that is snide and foolish | 12:56 |
| snap-l | Your lack of paranoia frightens me. | 12:56 |
| jrwren | ha! | 12:56 |
| jrwren | your lack of sane risk analysis depresses me. | 12:56 |
| snap-l | touche | 12:56 |
| jrwren | *personal attack back at ya* kachow! :) | 12:56 |
| jrwren | remember, i was formerly a sysadmin. | 12:56 |
| snap-l | jrwren: I'm very paranoid around HDDs, though | 12:57 |
| snap-l | Are they in a RAID at least? | 12:57 |
| jrwren | but in all seriousness i could lose this thing and I wouldn't care very much. | 12:58 |
| snap-l | (like I'm one to talk. My desktop drives aren't raided) | 12:58 |
| jrwren | i can rerip CDs | 12:58 |
| jrwren | i can redownload ISOs | 12:58 |
| snap-l | jrwren: nod | 12:58 |
| jrwren | i can reinstall linux. | 12:58 |
| jrwren | what else does it do? | 12:58 |
| jrwren | code goes to github or lp | 12:58 |
| jrwren | not sure what else I have there... nothing I think. | 12:58 |
| jrwren | its really not that important. | 12:58 |
| * jrwren says as he crosses fingers and hopes it doesn't die | 12:58 | |
| snap-l | jrwren: After deleting my one drive, and having to re-rip, I've gotten a lot more anal about backup | 12:58 |
| jrwren | right as we were typing this, it failed a write ;( | 12:59 |
| snap-l | That said, it's sitting on my desk a few feet from the machine | 12:59 |
| snap-l | jrwren: Ouch | 12:59 |
| jrwren | does anyone know screen/byobu very well? I turned off hardstatus and now that line is going ot my xterm title? | 13:02 |
| jrwren | it is weird, but also kinda cool. | 13:02 |
| snap-l | jrwren: Never turned it off, but that is kind of cool / annoying. :) | 13:02 |
| jrwren | what is the most useful vim command you ever learned? | 13:29 |
| brousch | G | 13:29 |
| brousch | wait, no Esc | 13:29 |
| jrwren | beyond the 2 page cheat sheet of unix in a nutshell | 13:30 |
| _stink_ | heh | 13:31 |
| rick_h | au FileType $something set... | 13:31 |
| jrwren | top 3 or top 5? | 13:32 |
| snap-l | jrwren: u | 13:33 |
| snap-l | usually in rapid succession. :) | 13:33 |
| jrwren | and then a ctrl-r ? | 13:33 |
| snap-l | sometimes. | 13:34 |
| snap-l | But undo has saved my bacon more than once. | 13:34 |
| snap-l | and removed my bacon more than once. | 13:34 |
| jrwren | me too, but i can usually git reset or checkout or something to save my bacon | 13:34 |
| jrwren | i ask because I just made great use of mksession | 13:35 |
| snap-l | jrwren: Assuming I'm using git and have recently checked in, yes. ;) | 13:35 |
| jrwren | but i also learned Sex/Vex recently | 13:35 |
| snap-l | jrwren: How could you recently learn Sex? :) | 13:35 |
| jrwren | and I thought maybe folks would have sweet favorites like those. | 13:35 |
| jrwren | snap-l: i never really knew what that thing down tehre was used for. | 13:35 |
| jrwren | snap-l: the status bar i mean | 13:36 |
| snap-l | jrwren: I'm totally posting that on bash.org. :) | 13:36 |
| jrwren | can if you want. i was just quoting MSI cuz i thought it would be funny. | 13:37 |
| snap-l | ;) | 13:38 |
| snap-l | http://bash.org/?950583 | 13:39 |
| snap-l | I lolled | 13:39 |
| _Marcus | "Quote #950583 is pending moderation."? | 13:39 |
| snap-l | yes, it'll take some time | 13:39 |
| rick_h | jrwren: I used the session stuff for a bit, but found it too much work to keep up and going | 13:42 |
| rick_h | jrwren: but really, I find that for the most part vim is movement commands, updating config stuff based on ft in a custom way, and the plugins that make my life easier | 13:43 |
| rick_h | after splits/buffers, etc, I don't get into a ton else there | 13:43 |
| brousch | my laptop is running fast after its HD issue earlier. i'm scared to hit the swap | 13:49 |
| === rick_h_ is now known as rick_h | ||
| rick_h | grrr, I've done that a few times lately. Somehow freezing my irssi window | 13:52 |
| snap-l | brousch: You can tell Linux how swappy you want it to be. | 13:53 |
| brousch | yeah, but with my measly 4GB i am hitting it frequently. i'd rather it not just kill things | 13:54 |
| snap-l | It won't directly kill things | 13:56 |
| snap-l | you can just set the priority lower | 13:56 |
| jrwren | rick_h: you still use nerdtree? | 13:56 |
| rick_h | yea, but working on using ctrlp and not using it as much | 13:56 |
| jrwren | i never adopted nerdtree, so Explore is very nice for me. | 13:57 |
| snap-l | ctrlp? | 13:57 |
| rick_h | like command-T but pure vimscript vs ruby | 13:58 |
| snap-l | Oh that helps. | 13:58 |
| snap-l | http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=3736 | 13:59 |
| snap-l | Looks like a pain in the ass | 14:00 |
| rick_h | now so? | 14:01 |
| snap-l | Just looked a little complicated from the description | 14:02 |
| snap-l | CHekcing it out now | 14:02 |
| rick_h | http://kien.github.com/ctrlp.vim/ seems pretty good intro/walk through | 14:04 |
| rick_h | basically setup a couple of settings, some ignores, and stop auto chwd and works ok so far for me | 14:04 |
| snap-l | How do you open it in a new window? | 14:04 |
| rick_h | don't know, I just split, and then run it | 14:05 |
| rick_h | or just run it and go back/forth between buffers | 14:05 |
| snap-l | meh. I'll give it a shot | 14:05 |
| rick_h | I've mapped ;; to swap buffers so finding myself doing that a lot more recentl.y | 14:05 |
| snap-l | I think I've gotten too used to Nerdtree. :) | 14:06 |
| snap-l | though I can see why this would be appealing | 14:07 |
| rick_h | yea, you have to know what you're looking for | 14:07 |
| rick_h | so for projects you know well it's awesome | 14:07 |
| rick_h | but when I'm searching/finding things or exploring I launch NT | 14:07 |
| rick_h | so bookie is almost 100% ctrlp now, but launchpad is still some 60% nerdtree walking | 14:07 |
| jrwren | hardstatus ignore v. alwyasignore. got that byobu hardstatus out of my window title | 14:40 |
| snap-l | I wish my sinuses would stop building a dam | 14:51 |
| snap-l | Tomorrow sees the release of the latest OMC Instrumetalcast | 14:57 |
| snap-l | And I found enough stuff that the next episode may not be far behind | 14:58 |
| snap-l | http://memoirsofficial.bandcamp.com/ <- Worthy of your attention, instrumental djents. | 15:15 |
| ColonelPanic001 | \o/ | 15:21 |
| ColonelPanic001 | bookmarking. | 15:21 |
| ColonelPanic001 | after Cloudkicker, never ignoring a bandcamp link from you again | 15:22 |
| snap-l | ColonelPanic001: That could be dangerous. :) | 15:22 |
| snap-l | But yeah, Bandcamp appears to be where I'm getting a lot of the "OMG" music | 15:23 |
| ColonelPanic001 | probably | 15:23 |
| snap-l | Jamendo is stagnating | 15:24 |
| ColonelPanic001 | never really used it much - just listned to bands I'm linked to, etc | 15:24 |
| ColonelPanic001 | Jamendo as a great idea, it's just a lot of stuff to sift through, imho | 15:24 |
| snap-l | Well, they've made it 100x worse to release albums | 15:24 |
| snap-l | so what used to be a decent flow is now a trickle | 15:24 |
| snap-l | that and they moved servers to be with their new parent company | 15:25 |
| snap-l | So that always makes things fun | 15:25 |
| ColonelPanic001 | heh | 15:26 |
| === jcastro_ is now known as jcastro | ||
| snap-l | Nice, managed to have a process wedged on my machine since the 24th | 16:14 |
| snap-l | no wonder my machine was acting a little wonky | 16:14 |
| * snap-l wonders if he should be using some form of CPU monitor in the systray after all. ;) | 16:15 | |
| rick_h | heh, if your system is acking wonky you're supposed to run top :P | 16:27 |
| snap-l | Yeah yeah, I know. | 16:27 |
| brousch | i have cpu, ram, swap, and network monitors always running | 16:58 |
| snap-l | brousch: You're running KDE. I'm surprised your titlebar isn't a stock ticker. | 16:59 |
| brousch | i have a whole panel for clocks and stock tickers | 16:59 |
| jjesse | brousch, has a panel of panels | 17:07 |
| brousch | i created a full screen panel and filled it with panels | 17:07 |
| snap-l | He's got a panel of a panel where he's peeking at his ports | 17:15 |
| snap-l | and a cadre of clocks his appointments to support | 17:16 |
| snap-l | with a wall of wobbly windows his functions find a fort | 17:16 |
| snap-l | and a network sniffing tracer tracing traffic of all sorts | 17:17 |
| snap-l | greg-g: You have unleashed the fury. | 17:18 |
| snap-l | http://blog.grossmeier.net/2012/03/25/why-i-dont-buy-ebooks-anymore/comment-page-1/#comment-11902 | 17:18 |
| brousch | snap-l++ | 17:19 |
| brousch | that was for the KDE poem | 17:21 |
| greg-g | snap-l: :) yay fury, or is that furry ;) | 17:21 |
| snap-l | greg-g: You'll have to come to Penguicon for the furry. | 17:22 |
| * waldo323_ runs away | 17:23 | |
| widox | rick_h: https://github.com/kennethreitz/autoenv similar to workit | 17:36 |
| rick_h | widox: yea, but is messes with cd and not a fan of that | 17:38 |
| widox | rick_h: right. I just haven't seen too many general tools like that | 17:48 |
| rick_h | widox: yea, there's some issues that overloading cd create, some rails tool shave a history of doing that | 17:50 |
| greg-g | apparently Rowan just rolled over from his tummy to his back | 17:55 |
| rick_h | greg-g: woot! | 17:56 |
| rick_h | here comes trouble | 17:56 |
| greg-g | no kidding | 17:57 |
| rick_h | I remember that first time I put him down, went to get a drink and then found him off his blaket across the room going "WTF!?" | 17:59 |
| greg-g | lol | 17:59 |
| rick_h | it's like a switch, they just suddenly start going | 17:59 |
| brousch | time to babyproof everything | 18:02 |
| greg-g | no. kidding. | 18:02 |
| greg-g | That'll be a fun house meeting with the roommates. "No, you can't leave your used needles on the floor anymore" | 18:03 |
| rick_h | bah, need more books. Up to 4 audible credits to use up this month | 18:03 |
| rick_h | lol | 18:03 |
| greg-g | :) | 18:03 |
| brousch | greg-g: wow. who are you rooming with? | 18:04 |
| brousch | i thought everyone in SF smoked pot, not shot up | 18:04 |
| greg-g | oh right... | 18:04 |
| greg-g | "No, you can not leave your bong on the floor, he *will* tip it over" | 18:05 |
| jrwren | lol | 18:09 |
| * jrwren calls SFCPS | 18:10 | |
| snap-l | rick_h: http://www.audible.com/pd?asin=B002V0QDLM | 18:49 |
| snap-l | Not sure how many credits it is, but it should keep you busy for a while. | 18:49 |
| greg-g | "abridged" lack of commitment | 18:56 |
| greg-g | http://www.audible.com/pd/ref=sr_1_1?asin=B002V0Q84E&qid=1332788166&sr=1-1 | 18:56 |
| greg-g | ^^ there ya go | 18:56 |
| greg-g | 41 hours | 18:56 |
| snap-l | Ah, very good then | 18:56 |
| snap-l | I thought that was running a bit short. | 18:56 |
| greg-g | :) | 18:56 |
| rick_h | heh, cool | 18:57 |
| brousch | pshaw. amateurs http://www.audible.com/pd/ref=sr_1_1?asin=B0077DEH7A&qid=1332788222&sr=1-1 | 18:57 |
| brousch | 47 hours | 18:57 |
| snap-l | brousch: I read that book | 18:57 |
| snap-l | I think by the middle I wanted every one dead. | 18:57 |
| snap-l | Stephen King is one of those authors where I seek out the abridged versions | 18:58 |
| brousch | i read tons of stephen king in HS | 19:00 |
| snap-l | tried reading Insomina once. After a while I wondered why I was doing this to myself. | 19:00 |
| snap-l | It felt like a novella pounded into a novel. | 19:00 |
| greg-g | I liked some of SK's stuff, like Bag of Bones and the first few of the Gunslinger series (only read 2 or 3) | 19:06 |
| ColonelPanic001 | I've only ever read "The Long Walk" | 19:06 |
| greg-g | in my group of geek friends, Stephen King was our replacement for Tolkien or Gaiman | 19:07 |
| greg-g | you know, I'm wondering, should I get the humble bundle again for Rowan when he's of age? | 19:25 |
| greg-g | I mean, Snuggle Truck seems like a good early game | 19:26 |
| brousch | nah, just get him on pbs kids | 19:27 |
| greg-g | "In Snuggle Truck, you must overcome treacherous terrain get your cargo of precious stuffed animals safely to the zoo, in an adorable take on the "trials" game genre. " | 19:27 |
| greg-g | any other opinions. brousch went with "just hand him over to the commies" | 19:27 |
| snap-l | greg-g: How old is Rowan? | 19:36 |
| snap-l | I think he might be a little too young for that sort of thing | 19:36 |
| brousch | indeed | 19:36 |
| snap-l | though I'm a huge fan of the HUmble Bundle for other things. | 19:36 |
| greg-g | snap-l: yeah, definitely no game time yet, he just figured out how to roll over from his tummy to his back (he's 3.5 mos) | 19:36 |
| greg-g | I was thinking in preparation for when he's older, like, I don't know when | 19:37 |
| brousch | as soon as he can sit up | 19:38 |
| greg-g | heh | 19:38 |
| snap-l | greg-g: Well, think about it this way | 19:43 |
| snap-l | how likely are you to be running Android 2 devices when he's 2? | 19:43 |
| greg-g | given that my phone isn't yet android 2.0..... no effing clue :) | 19:45 |
| brousch | eh? wtf phone do you have? | 19:46 |
| greg-g | oh, wait, sorry | 19:46 |
| greg-g | I am confused on android versions | 19:46 |
| brousch | -100 geek points | 19:46 |
| greg-g | my phone (LG Optimus V) is at 2.2.1 | 19:46 |
| brousch | that's pretty old | 19:47 |
| greg-g | yeah, figured | 19:47 |
| greg-g | Virgin Mobile doesn't give a hoot | 19:47 |
| greg-g | but its cheap, and I mostly still use it just as a phone plus twitter/identica/email | 19:47 |
| brousch | ah, i thought about doing that | 19:48 |
| brousch | their crappy coverage area was the biggest turn-off | 19:48 |
| greg-g | virgin == sprint | 19:49 |
| greg-g | and the only one with a major difference/improvement is verizon, which is stupidly expensive (for my usage) | 19:49 |
| brousch | att and sprint are both really spotty north of GR, where all of my parents/grandparents live | 19:50 |
| * greg-g nods | 19:50 | |
| snap-l | brousch: Where they live, it's probably ma and pa shanty wireless and feed store. | 19:50 |
| snap-l | http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2012/mar/26/news-corp-ondigital-paytv-panorama <- wow | 19:58 |
