| rmg51 | from what I heard Septa is shutting down | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| rmg51 | and schools are closed | 00:01 |
| rmg51 | if this keeps up I'll have to stay home to baby sit Mom | 00:03 |
| ChinnoDog | I am ready to survive on peebs | 00:05 |
| ChinnoDog | I should run a load of dishes tonight while there is still power | 00:05 |
| ChinnoDog | Also instructed my ice maker in my freezer to fill the tray | 00:06 |
| rmg51 | to put this laptop in hibernation or not | 00:06 |
| ChinnoDog | My office is officially closed now | 00:06 |
| ChinnoDog | hibernation vs suspend? | 00:06 |
| rmg51 | yep | 00:06 |
| rmg51 | if power goes out during the day and I'm at work, will the battery last long enough? | 00:07 |
| rmg51 | most likely it will | 00:07 |
| ChinnoDog | Better to hibernate to get the maximum juice out | 00:11 |
| rmg51 | I'll wait till morning to decide | 00:14 |
| waltman | pretty much everything's going to be closed in Philly until Wedneesday | 01:46 |
| rmg51 | not my place | 02:00 |
| rmg51 | it's always open | 02:00 |
| rmg51 | my boss is to dumb to know when to stay closed | 02:01 |
| rmg51 | there is always something to do | 02:01 |
| rmg51 | like pump water out of the basement :P | 02:02 |
| waltman | Drexel's closed Monday and Tuesday | 02:29 |
| waltman | to be honest it doesn't seem very stormy here yet. | 02:29 |
| waltman | So one of the PhD students in my lab just sent out this email: "I have taken the servers down in preparation for the big storm. They will not be back online until Wednesday at the earliest." | 02:47 |
| waltman | We only have one server that I know of, and it also runs our website. Which is now offline. | 02:47 |
| waltman | I don't understand the problem he's trying to solve by doing this. | 03:11 |
| waltman | I can think of two problems -- losing power and a flood in the computer room. The first should be handled by the UPS. In case of the latter, the box is dead anyway. | 03:11 |
| waltman | oh nice, the servers aren't on UPS. | 03:26 |
| waltman | still, linux generally doesn't corrupt data when it loses power. | 03:26 |
| rmg51 | Morning | 09:27 |
| anduril | morning all | 09:49 |
| jedijf | roads are dead | 10:24 |
| waltman | JonathanD: So trips to Ghana and Copenhagen weren't enough? You also had to toss in a Giants World Series win? You're not pretending about pleia2's holodeck anymore, are you? | 11:52 |
| pleia2 | he's letting me out after all this (I'll be in Philly next week) | 11:53 |
| waltman | I'm just worried that your basement's going to flood and she's going to wake up and find out that the Yankees really won the Series. | 11:53 |
| pleia2 | :( | 11:54 |
| waltman | enjoy it while you can! :) | 11:54 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 11:54 |
| pleia2 | I kind of feel bad for the tigers | 11:54 |
| pleia2 | just a little | 11:54 |
| pleia2 | apparently the game last night was good though :) | 11:54 |
| waltman | I'd feel a bit more sympathy for Detroit fans if the Lions didn't beat the Eagles a few weeks ago. :) | 11:56 |
| waltman | So far it's just wet here. | 11:58 |
| JonathanD | :D | 12:03 |
