canthus13Unit193: that's a dirty word.02:31
Unit193:D02:32
canthus13or a word with poor hygeine, at least.02:32
Unit193You can at least install vrms - Virtual RMS. :D02:32
canthus13The only reason I'd install that is to see how low of a score I can get.02:34
yanoRMS is really a VMS02:37

thafreaki could use some rain I guess...no lightning though...have enough misbehaving electronics as it is14:51
thafreakspeaking of lightning...anyone have any tips for lightning-proofing phone lines?14:52
thafreakhad an analog phone system card fry on me a few months back14:52
thafreakand I'm finally replacing it...don't want it to happen again...waste of $50014:53
thafreakdo the surge protectors with phone line plugs work?14:53
yanoi believe so, though i haven't been in a situation to test it though14:54
thafreakprobably should do some research14:54
thafreaki think I saw some one talking about coiling copper or something, but don't know if that would be useful in my situation14:55
thafreakwhat do you guys think about mozilla axing thunderbird???14:58
thafreakhttp://news.cnet.com/8301-1023_3-57467973-93/mozilla-calling-it-quits-on-thunderbird-report-says/?goback=%2Egde_77477_member_13573930614:58
thafreakok so they're not axing it, but moving resources away and only focusing on security/maintanence fixes15:00
thafreakand hoping the "comminity" will drive innovation15:00
canthus13mail clients are becoming a niche market.15:16

thafreakSo, I found an old disk image I created, and I think I used a really old version of ghost22:03
thafreakfound a trial version of ghost 6, and it said the image was created with a version older than 3 so it couldn't do anything22:04
thafreakany ideas on either where to find an ancient version of ghost, or does anyone know of something that can read old ghost images?22:04
canthus13call norton?22:07
thafreakit appears that new versions should be able to open it, and they have trial versions...22:07
thafreakmy luck, i didn't even use ghost and this is a wild goose chase22:08
