[00:07] <jcastro> hey rick_h
[00:08] <jcastro> what was that set of rechargeable batteries you were into?
[00:08] <rick_h> jcastro: http://www.amazon.com/Sanyo-eneloop-Pre-Charged-Rechargeable-Batteries/dp/B004UG41XW/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1333411706&sr=8-3
[00:08] <rick_h> and the XX for things that you don't want to charge much
[00:08] <jcastro> and those are the current bee's knees?
[00:08] <rick_h> yea, imo
[00:10] <jcastro> ok so, for the charger
[00:10] <jcastro> what are you using?
[00:10] <rick_h> I just use the ones that they come with. You can get the 4battery sets with a wall charger
[00:10] <rick_h> I've got a pair of them
[00:14] <jcastro> http://www.amazon.com/Sanyo-Eneloop-Charger-Rechargeable-Batteries/dp/B003VLAEPQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1333411903&sr=8-2
[00:14] <jcastro> I was thinking 2 of these
[00:14] <jcastro> outta do it
[00:15] <rick_h> yea, I've gotten one of those
[00:15] <rick_h> just remember to add a charge buffer vs what you need
[00:15] <rick_h> I kept ordering when I needed them, but then had to get another set since you want charged ones ready to go
[00:29] <jcastro> ordered
[01:13] <snap-l> greg-g: Glad you're enjoying the instrumetalcasts.
[02:45] <snap-l> Program note: If your sig other is watching netflix, it is not a good time to try uploading shit to your wensite
[02:45] <snap-l> website, even
[11:33] <snap-l> http://openmetalcast.com/2012/04/03/open-metalcast-episode-44-infected-injection/
[11:34] <snap-l> Hopefully they'll release the episode today. :)
[12:25] <nullspace> snap-l: looks like you have a QoS problem
[12:46] <snap-l> nullspace: How so? Uploading canning my network?
[12:47] <rick_h> yea, I have had that
[12:47] <rick_h> you'd think they'd be really split pipes, but hammering the upload really hammers download as well
[12:48] <snap-l> Well, I had QoS running
[12:48] <snap-l> but it seemed like it made everything suck equally
[12:48] <rick_h> heh yea
[12:49] <snap-l> Probably because a) I don't quite understand it, and b) it's non-trivial to get right
[12:49] <rick_h> damn network engineers do actual work?! no way!
[12:50] <snap-l> Heh
[12:51] <rick_h> I always find 'home networking' one of the great lies out there.
[12:51] <rick_h> "it's plug n play!" whatever
[12:51] <snap-l> I think the bigger lie is the 1Mbps pipe
[12:59] <rick_h> tinkered around with Go last night. So strange to code in something that requires compile steps
[12:59] <rick_h> but finally see why vim has built in make commands and such
[13:17] <snap-l> Yeah, it makes things really nice.
[13:35] <snap-l> And just to add insult to injury, I am running QoS.
[13:36] <snap-l> Thought I turned it off
[13:37] <brousch> power outages are fun
[13:38] <snap-l> brousch: Highly not recommended.
[13:38] <rick_h> heh, yea not fun, but thank you batteries
[13:41] <brousch> 75% of our UPSes are on year 7 of their 3 year life span
[13:41] <snap-l> brousch: Oh that's not good at all
[13:41] <brousch> the important ones are up to date
[16:01] <greg-g> g'morn
[16:02] <snap-l> g'mornin.
[16:05] <rick_h> party
[16:08] <jrwren> afternoon
[16:08] <jrwren> oh, west coast. good morning to greg
[16:08] <greg-g> :) thanks
[16:08] <greg-g> if it helps, I have been up (effectively) since about 5ish my time (8ish your time)
[16:13] <jrwren> omg, me too!
[16:15] <greg-g> which, 8am your time or 5am your time :)
[16:18] <jrwren> 8am my time
[16:26] <greg-g> jerk
[16:27] <rick_h> heh, close greg-g 6am my time
[16:27] <rick_h> you beat me by a hour
[16:43] <rick_h> I hate SF...I'm sorry but damn I hate it with a passion.
[16:43] <greg-g> hahaha, what happened?
[16:43] <rick_h> "Add Artifact" ... wtf is an artifact and why is it under the "Add new" in the "tracker"
[16:44] <greg-g> oh, i thought you meant San Francisco
[16:44] <rick_h> don't expose your internal names for crap out to the work in giant button form. I don't want to see Trove, artifact, and other generic terms that don't mean crap to what I'm trying to do
[16:44] <rick_h> oh no, I didn't spend any time in SF to hate it. Now SF cabbies...ugh...I'm just glad I'm still alive
[16:44] <greg-g> haha
[16:45] <rick_h> I'm sorry, but going from MI where everyone goes 10over the speed limit to a cab driver that can't get within 15mph of the speed limit, while getting almost run over by traffic, while I'm trying to make a flight on time...
[16:45] <rick_h> rough drive...
[16:47] <greg-g> :)
[16:47] <greg-g> yeah, don't do 10 over here, they'll ticket you
[16:47] <greg-g> a friend/ex-coworker learned that the hard way, 3 times :)
[16:47] <greg-g> (old habits die hard)
[16:48] <rick_h> yea, but at least get near the speed limit. Especially when traffic is honking at your and whizzing around you
[16:48] <rick_h> ouch...
[16:48] <greg-g> hehe
[16:48] <rick_h> shoot, 3 times he got honked at for not staying in his lane, we were swaying like a drunkard
[16:49] <rick_h> but yea, the pycon hotel/convention center is kind of in the middle of no where so I missed out on a decent CA experience
[16:49] <greg-g> yeah
[17:07] <jrwren> http://i.imgur.com/rH33r.jpg
[17:07] <jrwren> ^^ esp snap-l and greg-g
[17:09] <snap-l> http://decafbad.net/2012/04/03/the-agony-and-ecstasy-of-radio-shack/
[17:10] <snap-l> jrwren: Yeah, I love that. :)
[17:10] <greg-g> jrwren++
[17:16] <snap-l> Also, that bot that was crawling my site? I did the next best thing to blocking it: I submitted an Amazon abuse report
[17:16] <snap-l> apparently I'm not the only one who has been aggressively crawled.
[17:16] <snap-l> (by that bot)
[17:16] <jrwren> i want to be agressively crawled.
[17:17] <jrwren> do slow response filtering.
[17:18] <jrwren> snap-l: http://tumblr.jonthornton.com/post/641219929/rate-limiting-with-nginx
[17:19] <jrwren> also: http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpLimitReqModule
[17:20] <jrwren> i want ot write a module that strikes back.
[17:20] <jrwren> send teh response i char at a time with 1 sec delay between packets.
[17:20] <jrwren> muhuwahahahah

[17:29] <snap-l> jrwren: That is awesome.

[17:34] <snap-l> brousch: Thanks! Sent an e-mail to Spike The Tomb
[17:36] <brousch> good stuff
[17:51] <greg-g> you know it is sad when I can rely on Google's non-standard IMAP servers more than I can Canonical's Tomboy Sync feature.
[17:55] <snap-l> That Tomboy sync felt like a huge kludge
[17:56] <greg-g> except, it isn't really, they have Snowy (a sync server built on django) and tomboy-online.org which is the reference implementation
[18:00] <rick_h> yea, but that doesn't tie into the data store back end of U1 and such
[18:01] <snap-l> Mojo Nixon - Don Henley Must Die
[18:01] <greg-g> which I don't really care about, I just want syncing to work
[18:02] <rick_h> greg-g: yea, understand
[18:07] <greg-g> snap-l: gpodder syncs your podcasts across computers/devices?
[18:07] <greg-g> but doesn't host the files on their servers, right?
[18:07]  * greg-g is looking for a hosted or self-hosted podcast solution
[18:08] <snap-l> greg-g: I've never used gpodder recently
[18:08] <snap-l> so I have NFC how it works.
[18:08] <greg-g> ah, I thought you did
[18:08] <greg-g> what do you use now?
[18:09] <snap-l> Miro
[18:09] <greg-g> oh
[18:09] <greg-g> I want to like Miro, really really badly, just seems so bloated to me
[18:09] <greg-g> s/seems/feels/
[18:09] <snap-l> Yeah, it's gotten worse
[18:09] <snap-l> I keep thinking about dumping it
[18:09] <greg-g> :(
[18:10] <snap-l> But the only podcatching client that I really liked was the one that I wrote.
[18:10] <snap-l> and it's between releases.
[18:11] <snap-l> as in I have to rewrite it
[18:11] <greg-g> "between releases" :)
[18:11] <greg-g> "I'm.... between jobs"
[18:12] <greg-g> "I'm.... between wives" (hey now, that doesn't sound too bad)
[18:12] <waldo323_> who's?
[18:13] <greg-g> no comment
[18:16] <greg-g> snap-l: btw, nice intro to the Metal Injection episode
[18:16] <snap-l> greg-g: Thank you. I had some help. ;)
[18:17] <greg-g> :)
[18:17] <greg-g> well you get a plus one from me
[18:25] <snap-l> And, in the "wtf were they smoking" department, apparently there's a .xlsm file extension
[18:25] <greg-g> spreadsheets for your mobile device?
[18:25] <snap-l> .xlsx is for non-macro Excel files, .xlsm is for macro Excel files.
[18:26] <greg-g> well that makes sense, an easy way to ignore things which are definitely not going to work in LO (macros)
[18:26] <waldo323_> is that why people have been complaining their macros weren't working?
[18:26] <snap-l> Which doesn't help when your script is looking for .zip, .csv, .xls, and .xlsx files.
[18:26] <snap-l> waldo323_: Possibly
[18:26] <greg-g> just do .xls* and trust your input :)
[18:27] <waldo323_> thanks
[18:27] <snap-l> greg-g: I'd like what you're smoking too
[18:27] <snap-l> Some good shit out there.
[18:27] <greg-g> "yeah man, I *trust* my users to send me sensible data. its like, the only truly cool thing to do, ya know?"
[18:28] <snap-l> greg-g: Were it up to me, they'd send me the password to the database they're likely grabbing this data out of anyway.
[18:29] <greg-g> "oh yeah, we all share passwords too, man. We're all brothers and sisters here"
[18:34] <snap-l> http://www.mlive.com/lions/index.ssf/2012/04/mikel_leshoure_tried_to_eat_ma.html <- Please please PLEASE make people have to sign for potpourri.
[18:34] <snap-l> That would make me a happy man
[18:41] <brousch> why?
[18:42] <snap-l> Because I can't stand the normal use of potpourri, and it might make people think about banning substances because of illegitimate uses.
[18:42] <snap-l> ie: pseudophedrine
[18:42]  * greg-g loves pseudophedrine
[18:42]  * greg-g hates having to give his id to get it
[18:42] <greg-g> (and his use being logged)
[18:43] <greg-g> it is one thing to show id to get a beer, it is another if everyone who bought beer was on a list with how much they bought and that was shared with the gov't
[18:43] <snap-l> greg-g: ++
[18:48] <brousch> pseudoephedrine gives me angine. it's like a double-shot of espresso
[18:49] <brousch> angina
[18:52] <snap-l> brousch: That's OK. You can have lotradine
[18:52] <snap-l> which for is is the same as a placebo
[18:52] <brousch> i only take it for sinus infections
[18:53] <brousch> i have none of these silly allergy things
[18:53] <snap-l> brousch: Live in Detroit for a while. You will.
[18:53] <snap-l> I think it's because we're downwind of all of the bullshit downtown
[18:53] <brousch> seems like there'd be fewer allergens in an asphalt wasteland
[18:55] <snap-l> brousch: Maybe that explains GR then ;)
[18:55] <brousch> we have grass and trees
[18:56] <snap-l> brousch: So do we
[18:56] <brousch> detroit trees and grass always seem like they're covered in a grayish film
[18:56] <Blazeix> but in our case, "trees and grass" are both slang
[18:57] <snap-l> brousch: Nah, they're covered in buildings
[18:57] <brousch> telephone poles do not count as trees

[19:20] <snap-l> widox: PHOTOSHOP!
[19:20] <jrwren> snap-l: Mojo Nixon don't work here.
[19:20] <snap-l> those pots are actually homeless people
[19:20] <snap-l> jrwren: IF you don't know Mojo Nixon, then your place could use some fixin'
[19:22] <jrwren> snap-l: ;)
[19:24] <jrwren> snap-l: I linked that youtube video to a friend, without telling him what it was.
[19:24] <jrwren> this is his response:
[19:24] <jrwren> YOU DON'T JUST PULL MOJO NIXON OUT OF NOWHERE JAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[19:24] <jrwren> i did a spit take
[19:24] <jrwren> :)
