nixternalyeah, that was a favorite one there. though, i always have documentation03:00
nixternalrick_h_: make sucks! cmake ftw03:01
greg-gwhat's the best cross platform password manager? I want something I can leave instructions for Carrie to get access to.04:09
rick_h_nixternal: :P10:37
rick_h_greg-g: I've started to get Erica to use lastpass, though she's only using it in Chrome and on her phone so far10:37

brouschoooooh11:17
brouschThat's the android watch, right?11:17
snap-lnice!11:20
rick_h_brousch: well the bluetooth that talks to android right11:27
rick_h_though it says I have until sept 30th to change my info so guess it's still at least a month out11:27
snap-lI am a developer. I make things work12:05
snap-lYou expect to use whatever I build moments after it's completed, but that's OK, because I'm a developer, and I make things work12:06
rick_h_snap-l: :) kick its butt12:06
snap-lYou wouldn't expect to drive on a road seconds after it's paved, but that's OK, because my bits are strong, and tested.12:07
rick_h_woot!12:07
snap-l(at least, that's what I wish were the case)12:08
rick_h_snap-l: awesome dilbert reference12:22
brouschI posted this to FB yesterday, but you haters can read it on Reddit http://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/ze0z4/til_my_son_thinks_chicken_nuggets_are_made_by/12:23
snap-lrick_h_: Thanks. :)12:24
rick_h_brousch: nice12:31
jrwrengreg-g: keepass?13:21
jrwrenbrousch: we've always been up front with the kid about where every bit of her food comes from.13:22
jrwrenwe would go to a farm or the zoo and I'd ask her if she would like to kill and eat those animals and explain to her that its how meat gets on her plate.13:23
rick_h_"umm, thank you george, you've got the best t-bones evar!"13:23
shakes808Good morning all13:27
brouschjrwren: I never really though about it. I've mentioned that meat is from animals, but I guess I wasn't specific enough on what "from" means13:33
brouschHe was under the impression the animals give us meat, like as presents or something13:34
jrwrenyeah, kids can't imagine killing something to eat it, unless they see it.13:37
jjessewe've told caleb where the food came from13:47
jjesseeach time he eats meat we tell him13:47
jjessefor a while he didn't like the texture of it so he was a veggie eater13:47
brouschYeah, George doesn't like unprocessed meat, like steak or chicken breast13:48
jrwrenzomg, my kid is the opposite.13:52
jrwrenshe loves steak and chicken legs, but does not like hot dogs.13:52
jjessewell she's smart hot dogs are gross13:52
jrwrenshe does like sausage and bratwurst. those are less processed.13:52
jrwrenoh yeah, she is wonderful.13:52
jrwrenI go to restaurant with her and we order muscles as apetizer and we eat :)13:53
jrwrenso fun diving into muscles with a 4 or 5 yr old.13:53
brouschDo you mean muscles as in what meat is made from, or mussels as in slimy seafood?14:11
jrwreni mean the molusk which grows in the sea.  so I meant mussels not muscles14:22
jrwrenif you ate 'em slimy, you got 'em wrong.14:22
jrwrentry 'em again, they are delicious.14:22
brouschI think you're saying that because you will get your jollies thinking of me eating a glob of snot14:28
snap-lMussels are good, but they have to be prepared right14:30
snap-ltoo long, they're superballs14:30
snap-lnot enough, they're snotballs14:30
snap-lBut damn, they're good.14:31
jrwrenbrousch: no way, because I love to eat them. I would wish you the joy that I have. What snap-l said.14:31
brouschrick_h_: Next GRPUG is Makefiles vs fabric14:57
rick_h_brousch: hah14:57
rick_h_that's easy14:57
rick_h_makefiles = app install, fabric = automating that setup/install across hosts14:58
rick_h_done14:58
brouschOh great, now I need a whole new topic14:58
rick_h_well just don't tell them how it ends I guess14:59
jrwrenexactly.15:10
jrwreni'm using both here too.15:10
rick_h_yea, they really are different uses. At least they're at their best at different uses15:18
rick_h_but you can always shoe-horn a screw driver into a crowbar and such15:18
brouschI think you'll need a grinder for that conversion15:18
brouschA shoehorn will have little effect on a crowbar15:18
brouschsnap-l: You see this? http://mobile.slashdot.org/story/12/09/05/0512219/sprint-allows-lte-service-over-mobile-virtual-network15:21
snap-lYeah, unfortunately I haven't been following it because my phone isn't LTE15:22
snap-lBut it's nice to see Sprint cooperating15:22
snap-lI think that's going to be key for them15:23
greg-gbrousch: Are you serious?! Are you crazy?! :)15:26
jjesseyes brousch is crazy15:26
brouschYeah, it didn't help that I was cracking up laughing at the whole discussion15:26
snap-lwhich one?15:26
brouschsnap-l: chicken nuggets15:31
snap-lah15:31
snap-lChik'n McDeadlets15:31
PainBankanyone tried the Livio Radio app?16:04
snap-llivio being... ?16:07
PainBanklivioradio.com16:10
PainBankyou might be interested in it snap-l... being a content producer16:10
jrwrenlooks like hardware, what is the app for?16:12
PainBankios and android16:12
snap-lYeah, it's not clear what this iis16:12
PainBankright, their web site is a bit vaguish16:12
snap-lif it's just hardware to play shit in my car, OK, I guess it's cool16:12
snap-lbut if it's yet another music streaming service, then no thanks.16:12
jrwren"more than 45,000 stations" are you suggesting snap-l run a station?16:13
PainBankoh, yea, they sell hardware too16:13
* snap-l already programs for one station16:13
PainBankif they pull that station... then...you can reference users to it.16:13
snap-lLooks like yet-another-shoutcast streamer16:13
snap-llike tune-in16:14
snap-lfor those of us who don't have bluetooth or aux-in jacks16:14
PainBankcollector16:14
snap-lthe controller interface looks nice.16:14
PainBankthey are local to us... Ferndale16:14
snap-lbut that's about the only thing that looks interesting about it16:14
snap-lCool. I can thonk them on the heads them16:15
snap-lthen16:15
PainBankhehe16:15
snap-lIt's an FM transmitter w/ Bluetooth in a Bluetooth-direct world16:15
snap-lAnd having to run their app? No thanks.16:16
snap-lI already have BT in my VW, and an Aux-in cable on my Caliber.16:16
PainBankthere ya go16:17
snap-lAnd my Squeezebox handles the rest16:17
snap-lHad they released this in 2010, I'd be all over it16:17
snap-lIt's too late for this16:17
jrwrenexactly, too late.16:18
jrwreneven 2010 is too late for most.16:18
jrwrenthis was a hot product in '07 or 0816:18
PainBankalrighty16:18
PainBankthanks for the thoughts.16:19
jrwreni replaced my car audio head unit in my 10 yr old car, it has USB, charges my phone while i drive, direct audio control, its great.16:19
snap-lPainBank: This would be awesome for the rental-car market16:19
PainBankhmm...16:19
PainBankperhpas16:19
snap-lbut I haven't touched a FM transmitter in a year16:20
snap-land used a cassette adapter on a car that didn't have BT or Aux IN16:20
jrwrenfm transmiters suck, I've never seen one work very well.16:20
PainBankbut having aux in still requires manipulation of the phone... which is one of the items the hardware tries to solve16:20
snap-lWhat's the price on the hardware?16:21
snap-l$50? $100?16:21
PainBankjrwren: I have only used one, which had switches for setting the channel and yes, it sucked.  don't know how thiers works16:21
jrwrennew head units don't use aux in, they use USB and control ipod and android16:21
snap-lIf it's under $50, it's remarkable16:21
PainBankI think like $10016:21
snap-lif it's over $100, it's dead.16:21
PainBankhaven't priced it16:21
PainBankthat is just one of their products.16:21
jrwrenonly a nutter would pay $100, when you can get a whole new car head unit for $150 and a great one for a little more.16:21
PainBankthey have a radio that does it...16:21
snap-lPainBank: Yeah, they rebranded a Gracenote radio16:22
snap-lwhoopdie-freaking doo16:22
PainBankprob like the squeezebox, but i haven't used one of those either16:22
* PainBank blankly stares off in to space having never used a Gracenote radio...16:22
rick_h_#$@#$ hate them16:23
snap-lPainBank: Squeezebox is awesome. I wrote a column for Linux Journal about it16:23
PainBankhaha16:23
rick_h_if gracenote == grace audio that is16:23
PainBankI know, I saw a post of yours about it sometime ago16:23
jrwrensqueezebox is AWESOME. I'm listening on squeeze slave RIGHT NOW16:23
snap-lhttp://www.livioradio.com/pandora-radio-by-livio/16:23
snap-lrick_h_: ^^16:23
rick_h_yea, seems similar16:24
jrwren$20016:24
PainBankyup, expensive16:24
rick_h_all these net radios are16:24
jrwreni seriously don't get it.16:24
rick_h_and no google music :(16:24
jrwrenfor $200, I could get a $129 ipod touch and a "radio" dock. Guess which one is more powerful?16:25
jrwrenthese companies are nuts, I feel bad for teir investors.16:25
PainBankthe google phone16:25
rick_h_snap-l: https://twitter.com/rickasaurus/status/24338371490888909016:27
snap-lrick_h_: Heh16:27
jrwrenhrm, that is a strange dilber.16:29
greg-gyeah, didn't seem funny to me16:33
greg-gof course, dilbert hasn't for years16:33
rick_h_oh come on, that's funny :P16:33
snap-lPhilistines.16:39
brouschMy kid would gladly burn his Thomas lunch boxes for this http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/f0b5/?cpg=gplus17:32
jrwrenit may as well be jar jar binks.17:37
rick_h_heh, so greg-g better get a bookie android app before I ever do an iApp :)17:54
jrwrenis it weird that i prefer "".format() to % in python?17:56
jrwrenwhat would a bookie android app do?17:57
jrwrenlet you retag? browse by tag and date?17:57
rick_h_jrwren: no, .format is the preferred17:57
rick_h_but it'll fail 2.6 and lower if I recall17:57
rick_h_jrwren: a bookie android app would 1) Provide an intent to store urls from twitter/googlereader/etc to bookie17:58
rick_h_2) Provide the ability to see the list of bookmarks, search, and read the readable content of bookmarks from the web app17:58
rick_h_3) WHen I get the readable view, provide the read-it-later process to pull up your mobile device and read the parsed content of the articles marked !toread17:58
greg-grick_h_: you better :)18:00
rick_h_greg-g: :P18:00
rick_h_I've still got to see about that hook up for newsblur -> bookie18:00
rick_h_I have to say, I'm jealous of how far he's gone with that18:01
jrwrenshit, i'm targetting 2.6 on this. I hope format works.18:03
rick_h_http://docs.python.org/library/string.html#string-formatting18:03
rick_h_yea, sorry I was off. Added in 2.618:03
jrwrenyeah, i just confirmed18:04
jrwrenyou scared me for a sec18:04
rick_h_yea, sometimes that stuff in 2.5/6/7 blurs a little bit18:04
brouschrick_h_: Yeah, I hit a problem with that early on trying to run Bookie on Dreamhost. They only had 2.5 at the time18:05
brouschI should try again now that 2.6 is available on some servers18:05
rick_h_brousch: yea, I'd hit it once in a while on older systems since the prev ubuntu LTS was 2.5 and RH stuff was 2.4/518:05
jrwrensuddenly i'm more content to be on 2.618:13
rick_h_2.7 ftw, argparse, ordereddict, dict/set comprehensions18:15
jrwrendict comprehensions?18:16
jrwrenfor k,p in dict doesn't work in 2.6?18:16
jrwrenoh wait... nevermind, I remember what you mean.18:16
rick_h_{x: x*x for x in range(6)}18:17
rick_h_{0: 0, 1: 1, 2: 4, 3: 9, 4: 16, 5: 25}18:17
rick_h_generate a dict straight from a comprehension18:17
rick_h_vs dict([(k, v) for x, x*x in range(6)])18:17
rick_h_LTE users check their phone twice as often than 3G users. 39/day vs 63/per18:18
rick_h_interesting quote ^18:18
brouschThose bastards. They should pay twice as much!18:19
rick_h_:P18:19
rick_h_grrr, promising jelly bean to new moto phones...where's my jelly bean on my nexus dammit!18:37
brouschI thought you have had it since the beginning18:40
rick_h_no, that was 4.0, not 4.1 which came out in the N7/Google IO18:40
brouschBe happy you have 418:41
rick_h_no, I refuse :P18:41
brouschI'm still all on 2.318:41
rick_h_Blazeix: did you root to something with jellybean? I might start looking at that path18:42
Blazeixrick_h_: yeah, in the xda forums there are a bunch of jellybean-based roms18:42
Blazeixi chose one that seemed somewhat legit and flashed it18:42
Blazeixi've been meaning to try out AOKP, since that has a jellybean release now18:44
Blazeixi was using that pre-jellybean and liked it18:44
rick_h_yea, might have to check that out18:44
brouschjrwren: Wait, what, doll house furniture?20:32
brouschI must see this20:32
snap-lbrousch: You ever been to Frankenmuth?20:48
brouschI have not20:48
snap-lRau's Country Shop has a TON of dollhouse stuff20:48
snap-lWorth the day-trip20:49
brouschI just wanted to see jrwren's stuff20:49
jrwrenbrousch: i don't do it. i was just making suggestions. That one was inspired by The Wire21:39
brouschjrwren: Bah, now I'm disappointed22:05
brouschI had visions of you painstakingly carving cute little chairs and tea tables for your little girl, then painting them pink with little yellow flowers.22:16
brouschHow do you verify that something like this is legit? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dGlJRjhnZlJ1Q2VzZVF1N3hQenQ4X1E6MQ#gid=022:43
