snap-lThing is, these proposals are fine and good, but the federal level forbids it15:00
_stink_i loved this quote from the Colorado governor:15:01
_stink_"The voters have spoken and we have to respect their will. This will be a complicated process, but we intend to follow through," Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper said in a statement released late Tuesday.15:01
snap-lI hope it brings about some soul-searching about legalization, though15:01
_stink_"That said, federal law still says marijuana is an illegal drug, so don't break out the Cheetos or Goldfish too quickly."15:01
snap-l_stink_: bwahahahaha15:01
snap-lsounds like he speaks knowingly about such things15:02
_stink_yeah15:02
_stink_i bet he had a version of that line for each outcome15:02

snap-lI have no idea who sent me this message21:37
rick_hhah, at least they're using python :)21:53
snap-lor something similar21:53
smoserzsh sucks, and rick_h i blame you21:53
smoser$ zsh -c 'args="a b c"; for a in $args; do echo $a; done'21:53
smosera b c21:54
smoser$ sh -c 'args="a b c"; for a in $args; do echo $a; done'21:54
smosera21:54
smoserb21:54
smoserc21:54
smoser$%*!ing stupid shell.21:54
snap-lsmoser: I thought bash did something similar21:54
smoserno. bash extended in backwards compat way.21:54
smoserbash -c 'args=( a b c ); for a in "${args[@]}"; do echo $a; done'21:55
smosera21:55
smoserb21:55
smoserc21:55
snap-lhuh, I've had instances whenever I've done file input where I've had to get creative to not have things go weird.21:55
rick_hsmoser: interesting21:55
smoseri would not care at all. but if user's shell is zsh, then /etc/profile.d scripts are executed.21:56
snap-lNo Nexus21:56
snap-lAfter many, many positive signs that made it look like Google and its manufacturing partners for the Nexus line would be making their next flagship device MVNO friendly, it seems that’s not the case.21:56
smoseri had previously assumed that it was to be done by posix compliant shell.21:56
snap-laka no nexus on Ting21:56
rick_hsnap-l: I think you're more doomed by sprint network21:57
rick_hsmoser: what's in profile.d you don't want run?21:59
smoserits not that i dont want it run, its that i want it run by something that doesn't suck21:59

snap-lTHough sprint is notching things up a hair22:00
snap-land I'm still paying $30 a month for two phones, so take the good with the bad, I guess :)22:01
smoseri just bought a roku 2 xs at http://www.dailysteals.com/22:05
