paultagjrgifford: we made sure the layouts were ractive01:31

paultagjrgifford: they handle landscape / port with the same code, so it just adapts to what it sees01:32

thafreakdump copies of those disks to amazon glacier periodically02:45
canthus13Whee.. Someone from china has connected to my MOO several times.  They never actually created an account.. I assume they were rather confused as to what it was. (And why the heck were they connecting to a random IP on 8888 anyway?)05:31
snap-lcanthus13: MIght just be a random probe.12:41
canthus13snap-l: the same IP logged in 6 or 8 times. Never got past the login screen.13:05
canthus13Besides.. port 8888 isn't exactly a commonly probed port.13:06
paultagchallah alle13:07
paultagcanthus13: hahaha, awesome.13:07
dzhohttp://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/news/2205462/idf-intel-says-clover-trail-will-not-work-with-linux13:47
dzhoso, is that "Linux" as in GNU/Linux or is that as in, the kernel that powers Android?13:47
snap-lI'd hope Intel isn't that short-sighted.13:55
snap-lI'd rather believe shoddy reporting than Intel putting artificial barriers on a chip13:55
paultagSAN FRANCISCO: CHIPMAKER Intel has confirmed that it will not provide support for Linux on its Clover Trail Atom chip.13:56
paultagwhen have they ever?13:56
snap-lAnd if they don't support Linux, there's less of an onus for folks who know better to buy them13:57
dzhohttp://www.intel.com/cd/channel/reseller/asmo-na/eng/products/linux/feature/279817.htm haha Mandriva13:57
snap-lMaking a pariah is a perfectly valid business decision13:58
thafreaklooks like I'll be sticking with AMD cpus then14:34
thafreaknot that I was planning on buying any intels anyway...well I may have bought an atom in the near future14:35
thafreakguess it will be an amd fusion instead14:35
thafreakis it just me, or does it seem sad that Micro$oft needs all this help from various vendors to even have a chance with it's phone and tablet ventures?14:37
thafreakFirst they get nokia to ditch linux...now intel is making a chip just for them...14:37
canthus13seems to me like Intel isn't much into the tablet market anyway..14:38
thafreakyeah, but I think they wish they were15:33
thafreakI think arm chaps their asses15:33
thafreakI'm thinking they wish they would have bought arm out back in the day15:34
canthus13...and they're too proud to license the manufacturing rights from ARM. :)15:37
thafreakhttp://gigaom.com/cloud/open-source-champ-mark-shuttleworth-invests-1m-ceph-storage-startup/15:46
