[12:34] <snap-l> apparently there is a comoc convention next to Ohio Linuxfest
[16:10] <greg-g> alright, other than the Tims, Cliff, and Brewster, who in this series should I listen to?
[16:10] <greg-g> http://town.hall.org/radio/Geek/
[16:39] <jrwren> rick_h_: I need some python coaching
[16:49] <jrwren> nevermind. http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3148/ FTW
[17:21] <greg-g> ok, second question that'll go unanswered for the day: what should my new wireless router be?
[17:35] <jrwren> i hear great things about TL-WDR3600
[17:35] <jrwren> and the price is nice.
[17:36] <snap-l> I have a netgear
[17:36] <snap-l> The N300, iirc
[17:40] <greg-g> thanks, I get overwhelmed with routers. Each one has diehard lovers and diehard haters
[17:43] <snap-l> myopenrouter.net, iirc
[17:44] <snap-l> http://www.myopenrouter.com/
[17:49] <UnFixed> that TL-WDR3600 looks really nice.
[17:52] <Blazeix> i usually look for what's well-supported by dd-wrt, then choose from that list
[17:54] <snap-l> WR3500L is what I have, with Tomato on it
[17:55] <snap-l> BUt they sell it with the N300 moniker on it. You have to look at the labels
[17:55] <snap-l> Turnd my nose up on a ton of them before I realied that Staples had a ton of them in stock.
[17:55] <UnFixed> I hate the different versions they have on routers.
[17:55] <UnFixed> often early versions are supported, while later ones arent.
[17:55] <greg-g> UnFixed: yep, annoying
[17:56] <snap-l> Yeah, it's a real PITA how they overload the numbes
[17:56] <greg-g> UnFixed: and you can't tell which one you'll get from eg Amazon when it is a rev difference
[17:56] <UnFixed> yup
[17:56]  * greg-g nods
[18:00] <jrwren> my TL-WDR3600 recommendation is from johnf in arslinux, he likes openwrt on it.
[18:08] <greg-g> thanks all  :)
[18:08] <greg-g> I trust #ubuntu-us-mi more than Amazon or Newegg reviews ;)
[18:26] <UnFixed> I might pick one up myself. Been having bad luck with wireless router recently.
[18:40] <greg-g> hmm, the WDR4300 is $99 (vs the $69 for the 3600) from Amazon. The 3600 isn't in stock for Amazon, but Newegg has it for that price. But, with shipping and tax the Newegg $60 3600 is more expensive
[18:41] <UnFixed> have you checked locally?
[18:42] <UnFixed> also
[18:42] <greg-g> no
[18:42] <UnFixed> im seeing free 3-day shipping from newegg
[18:42] <greg-g> oh right, 3 day, yeah, I suppose that was an unfair comparison
[18:44] <UnFixed> also, v1.1 works with openwrt
[18:44] <UnFixed> not sure if there are later or earlier versions of it for sale.
[18:46] <greg-g> apparently just one; http://www.tp-link.com/en/support/download/?productcategoryid=201&model=TL-WDR3600
[18:46] <greg-g> nevermind the warning, click teh "I know how to find my version" button
[18:47] <UnFixed> ah, perfect.
[18:49] <greg-g> yep :)
[18:50] <greg-g> btw, UnFixed, I don't think we've met. I'm Greg. Actually living in CA (SF) now but long time Ubuntu Michigan member
[18:51] <UnFixed> I'm Arslan. I'm positive we've never met because ive only been in this channel a few times. I work with _stink_ and ColonelPanic001 at WSU.
[18:52] <greg-g> oh, well then, with friends like that....
[18:52] <_stink_> UnFixed: i told you not to admit this!
[18:52] <ColonelPanic001> SRSLY
[18:53] <ColonelPanic001> You don't make friends by admitting to a connection with me
[18:53] <ColonelPanic001> "oh good god, this guy is just going to talk about internet memes all day, too"
[18:53] <UnFixed> I'm not very good at this game. Time to go back to nethack.
[19:27] <jrwren> cats?
[21:52] <greg-g> snap-l: me biking into a parked pickup truck when 10 years old
[21:52] <greg-g> my rear shifter wasn't working, so I was peddling and looking at it and BAM!
[22:59] <snap-l> Hello there.
[22:59] <snap-l> greg-g: I didn't see that in the post (but I was skimming it)
[22:59] <snap-l> btw: here at OLF
[22:59] <snap-l> getting ready for nice dinner w/ J
[23:00] <brousch> I am scared to turn on my computers
[23:00] <brousch> GrrCON has scarred me for life
[23:01] <snap-l> Heh
[23:01] <snap-l> I'm on the 4G on my phone. ;)
[23:01] <snap-l> Tethered.
[23:02] <greg-g> snap-l: "or Diane Slough, R.N. who cared for my son in the Emergency Department at our “old hospital” when he rode his bicycle into the back of a pick-up truck in 1992, "
[23:02] <snap-l> Ah.
[23:02] <snap-l> greg-g: I never told you about the time I got my leg caught in a tree, did I?
[23:02] <snap-l> Now we're even. ;)
[23:03] <greg-g> haha, awesome
[23:04] <snap-l> Yeah, was climbing this tree that had two trunks (was split down the middle)
[23:04] <snap-l> spying on the neighbor kids behind us
[23:05] <snap-l> WEll, managed to slip, and get my leg sandwiched inbetween
[23:05] <snap-l> kids noticed me trying to get out, and tried to get my mom. "Lady, your kid is stuck in the tree"
[23:05] <snap-l> NEighbors acrosss the street managed to get a piece of wood in between to leverage me loose.
[23:16] <greg-g> wow
[23:19] <brousch> I climbed a pine tree in the backyard to a height of about 40ft. A branch broke and I tumbled down. My belt loop caught on on the little spikes on a chain linked fence and stopped my fall 1ft from the ground
[23:22] <greg-g> holy cow
[23:24] <brousch> Crazy
[23:24] <brousch> My step-dad watched me fall from the driveway
[23:58] <jjesse-android> Brousch I must have missed you at grrcon why are you scarred for life
[23:59] <brousch> were you there?
[23:59] <jjesse-android> Yeah I was st ck in the vendor area
[23:59] <brousch> No matter what I do, the hackers will get me. They are too smart
[23:59] <jjesse-android> Lol I bet
