[00:21] derekv: That's no good [00:45] http://askubuntu.com/questions/214379/where-did-proc-acpi-battery-bat0-xxx-go-in-12-10 if anyone cares to give me an upvote or two? [01:40] https://twitter.com/kennethreitz/status/266353191329869824 [02:53] Blazeix: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~launchpad-pqm/launchpad/devel/view/head:/lib/lp/testing/factory.py [02:53] and much simpler https://github.com/mitechie/Bookie/blob/develop/bookie/tests/factory.py [04:59] rick_h: cool thanks [12:54] strange wtf email of the day: http://paste.mitechie.com/show/Qr6LSq6Pif8TuGcS1Ckt/ [12:57] $1000/hr d00d [12:58] I don't even know wtf librtp is (had to google) and definitely no idea using it on iOS [12:58] But you would learn for $1000/hr [12:58] hah [13:00] Hold on, I'll recommend you for rtmp on linkedin [13:27] heh [15:30] http://mlkshk.com/r/3DA2 [15:30] Random act for the day :D [15:30] Top of the morn to ye all [15:30] morning [15:30] Seems like my day. :) [15:47] is it friday yet? [15:47] the boy slept until 6 today yay! [15:47] recovering from DST step 2 [15:51] DST hasn't been so much of a problem as full day Kindergarten. The boy keeps falling asleep during dinner. [15:54] hah [15:54] yea, when he first moved up a room in day care where they ran around and had more active play time he was soooo tired when he got home [15:56] this is part cool part crazy : http://goo.gl/wncIe [15:57] crazy to think a business never having a down month in 9yrs [15:58] Need moar Mcrib! [16:02] snap-l: did you see my randomness? [16:28] ingenious: http://www.bikehacks.com/bikehacks/2012/11/flip-flop-pedals.html [16:29] ugh, need a much more solid base imo than a flip flop [16:36] :( blocked, [16:36] I am guessing it is a youtube vid [16:36] vimeo [16:37] yea [16:37] :( [16:37] that is all blocked [16:37] and streaming music sites are blocked as well :( [16:37] play is not though :D [16:38] shakes808: basically, a guy made a bike pedal where the platform is a flip-flop (sandal) [16:38] it's also kind of punny because there are "flip flop pedals" that are clip in on one side, and normal flats on the other [16:39] dude looks like he got stoned one day, heard someone say "man, I love flip flop pedals" (meaning the traditional sense) and he replied "whoa.... dude..... flip flop, pedals." [16:54] shakes808: Yeah, I did. [16:55] greg-g: I already think flip flops (the footwear) are the devil's handiwork [16:55] this file of JS is going to make me break down and cry... [16:55] are we sure it's not friday yet? [16:55] rick_h: One more day over the speedbump of Thursday [16:57] Interesting re: the McD drop. But it would stand to reason when folks are trying to cut costs and stop eating like crap, McDs loses out [16:57] yea, but after 9 years, 108 straight months and then boom [16:57] kind of crazy to think [16:57] I think it's less costs and more eating like crap tbh, I mean you can eat darn cheap [16:58] rick_h: Perhaps it's the sign that the economy is improving [16:58] people are OK with paying a little extra to not eat at McDs [16:58] yea, maybe [16:59] for rick_h http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rcby0jlsQQI&feature=youtu.be&utm_source=buffer&buffer_share=b5cfb [16:59] or, judging from the number of times I've almost gotten hit driving past it, they're OK with the dog-meat substitute at Taco Bell [16:59] woot! clicky! [17:01] mmmmm, Taco Bell Volcano Menu [17:01] great, we can work really hard to replicate the computing experience of this great machine: http://ur1.ca/aujlk [17:02] (url shortened to add to the suspense) [17:20] jcastro_: wait, chris crissaful lost like a ton a weight? https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/101586564530051299524/albums/5807044115282882465/5807074317344855906 [17:25] he lost a ton [17:25] so did mike basinger [17:25] they're both hard to recognize now, lol [17:26] thats great [17:26] happy for them [17:27] chris, I bet, is effing solid muscle. He seemed strong as hell before. [17:41] Any opinions on the Cyberpower UPSes? [17:41] * rick_h is an APC man [17:41] My APC battery is flat again, and it's going to cost half of what a new UPS would cost to replace it [17:41] I think I'm driving too much on the current UPS [17:42] and worse, our ground doesn't exist. [17:42] ah yea, when power goes out I kill all but router/modem/router [17:43] Well, you're on a laptop too. ;) [17:43] yesterday got about 3.5hrs of time running network gear when power went out with my APC 1200 [17:43] isn't everyone :P [17:43] laptop + NAS, way to live [17:43] +1 [17:44] reminds me, need to turn the NAS back on snice I killed it yesterday [17:49] and really, my setup is: laptop + smaller_laptop_acting_as_server :) So, my server has a built in UPS (just not the harddrives, they're external) [17:52] I'm obviously asking the wrong crowd. :) [17:53] * snap-l looks around to see what other dinosaurs have tower desktop machines [17:53] well not sure on that. Just don't own cyberpower stuff as they seem to be enough lower priced on things I don't trust it with stuff I don't want to risk failing [17:54] the good ole fashioned 'if it's too good to be true...' [17:54] but sucks you're having issues with APC so go for it I guess. The amazon reviews are 4+ stars [17:54] rick_h: Yeah, that's kept me from hitting "one click" [17:55] rick_h: What I worry about is if the APC folks have cheapened their consumer stuff to the point where it's just the brand name carrying it along [17:55] Desktop computer? Do you wear onions on your belt too? [17:55] snap-l: definitely, looks like my model isn't around any more [17:56] brousch: Only when I don't have a clove of garlic to keep the west michigan folks at bay. [17:56] though the ratings on the new stuff from apc seems the same as the cyberpower so who knows [17:57] if I were to get a new one I'd probably get something like http://www.amazon.com/APC-BR1500G-BACK-UPS-10-Outlet-1500VA/dp/B003Y24DEU/ref=pd_sim_e_2 [17:57] snap-l: That computer you linked to is awesome. Look at dem floppy drives! [17:58] http://ur1.ca/aul3e <- This is what I'm looking at in the Cyber Power line [17:58] what is this McD drop to which you refer? [17:58] http://www.amazon.com/CyberPower-CP1500PFCLCD-Compatible-1500VA-Tower/dp/B00429N19W/ref=cm_cr_dp_asin_lnk though this one seems to be equivilent and does pure sine wave based on comments int he APC unit [17:58] jrwren: 15:56 rick_h- this is part cool part crazy : http://goo.gl/wncIe [17:59] snap-l: so I've got a 1200 and I wouldn't run a desktop on it for very long [17:59] rick_h: Yeah, that's the model / reviews of APC unit that got me thinking about the CyberPower [17:59] I don't think it would run for very long tbh [17:59] so I'd definitely not go lower than 1500 myself, and that's without a desktop [17:59] Yeah, I'm not looking to write a novel in the dark, just give it enough to shut down cleanly. [17:59] just switch, 2 routers, and att modem unit [18:00] ah, ok [18:00] i only get about 20-30min on my 1500 with "home server" cable modem, AP and voip on it [18:00] heh, see I want to keep my wif up for the power outage so 4+ hours of light usage is good [18:00] and if I calculate wrong, then let me know I've overloaded it. [18:00] jrwren: yea, but if you shut down the home server you shold be able to keep the AP a lot longer. [18:00] my NAS is on the UPS, but it's the first thing I shut down [18:02] *nod* [18:02] when I move to a house I may just get another ups for network gear and leave that one for the server. [18:03] yea, my next one I want to talk myself into springing for a bigger unit [18:05] power outage? what power outage? http://www.amazon.com/APC-Smart-UPS-SMT3000-3000VA-System/dp/B0036RFIA6/ref=sr_1_49?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1352397911&sr=1-49&keywords=apc+ups [18:05] buwhahaha [18:05] Yeah, that would be ideal. Get a separate unit for networking and one for the desktop [18:06] Just move your servers to the cloud [18:06] in my Windows VM, updating Java: "By installing Java, you'll be able to experience the power of Java, brought to you by Oracle." Obvious Oracle is obvious. [18:06] * greg-g hands head re brousch's comment [18:07] Don't forget to uncheck the Ask.com browser toolbar install [18:07] you try pushing 1 terabytes to the cloud and storing/getting it from there :) (and cheaper than what I paid for my eeepc+3 2tb disks) :) [18:07] it would be fun to move everything to DC power so those UPS are a bit more efficient [18:07] haha, just did, brousch :) you've done this before [18:07] Do you really need 90% of that on demand? [18:08] I do the day my laptop hard drive dies [18:08] no, but paying to store 1tb in S3 is expensive. Maybe glacier... but... I don't want to wait 4 hours to watch a movie or check out an old photo [18:09] I have everything I own on this 500GB HD + 120GB SSD [18:09] * snap-l has an external HDD for backups [18:09] * rick_h looks at 1.2TB of 2TB NAS filled with more I need to load on there [18:09] What is it? [18:10] brousch: ? [18:10] What do you have 1.2TB of? [18:10] backups, music, source code, pictures [18:10] wife's backups [18:10] my photos are about 100 gb themselves. Add in videos, backed up music and movies, books, and then backups (both obnam for me and timemachine for carrie), I can't fit on 500 gig :) [18:10] * snap-l needs to get some offsite backups going [18:10] She has her own laptop, back her up to the cloud [18:11] github/dropbox/U1/S3 for that for me [18:11] speaking of which [18:11] * greg-g fires off a backup [18:11] heh, cron ftw [18:12] 160GB of music, 800GB of tv, 600GB of movies :p [18:12] small fries [18:12] Geez. how do you get anything done with all that video? [18:12] 100GB of family photos and movies [18:12] /dev/sdb1 961432072 647593072 265001000 71% /mnt/music [18:12] snap-l: -h pelase [18:12] /dev/sdb1 985G 664G 272G 71% /mnt/music [18:12] here you go: /dev/sdd 11T 5.6T 5.0T 54% /maidentower [18:13] oh yeah, 800G of "other systems" backups [18:13] jcastro_: show off. [18:13] 3.7T 1.8T 1.8T 49% /mnt/blackbox [18:13] jcastro_: That's because you're off-site storage for HBO. ;) [18:13] (that's a btrfs raid1, hence it showing 3.7, but really it is 2, 2tb'ers) [18:13] sdb1 and sdd, you going doing hardware raid? [18:14] I have no raid on my desktop [18:14] I have the laptoppiest desktop of all [18:15] hoarders [18:15] you betcha [18:15] greg-g: I too am waiting for btrfs raid5 [18:15] brousch: That's all of my CDs in FLAC format. [18:15] mine is raid1. :-/ [18:15] and my downloads, and music for open metalcast [18:15] jcastro_: given I only have room for 2 disks, I'm cool with raid1 [18:16] nice! [18:16] yea, two disk raid1 in my NAS [18:16] but damn do I love btrfs snapshots [18:16] http://paste.mitechie.com/show/835/ [18:16] saved my butt already once [18:17] 24 hourly, 7 daily, 4 weekly, and 12 monthly snapshots I'm doing. On top of RAID1, plus a montly btrfs scrub, I ain't losing anything again! [18:17] * greg-g knocks on wood [18:17] ;) [18:17] i just use LVM mirror option [18:17] * snap-l needs to look into btrfs [18:18] only for the 300G of family stuff. the other 3TB i don't raid, its JBOD [18:18] seriously, btrfs is awesome [18:18] * greg-g nods [18:18] btrfs is from oracle, so I don't like it. [18:18] greg-g: yea, I was hearing some awesome stuff at UDS about it [18:18] reiserfs was still technically more advanced than btrfs's storage. [18:18] but btrfs has some sweet options like cow and snapshots [18:18] jrwren: with btrfs you can do per-file raid. It'll make sure there are x copies across x disks for that one file, while everything else isn't [18:19] greg-g: that is awesome. [18:19] and checksum checking on read, with auto fixing [18:19] too bad its from oracle. [18:19] :) [18:19] it will probably ask you to install the ask toolbar someday [18:19] hahaha [18:20] Or McAffee virus protection [18:21] That shit started with Sun though, righ? [18:22] correct (I think) [18:22] or, which? the ask.com? or btrfs? [18:22] assuming since the word "shit" was used as the reference, it was ask.com [18:22] :) [18:24] bundled crap [18:33] oh yeah, sun did it. [18:33] in fact, I think it is gone from oracle jdk installer [18:33] i didn't notice it when I installed jdk a couple days ago *cringe* [18:34] I did [19:45] so ummm, what's wrong with this picture http://uploads.mitechie.com/heroku_pgsql.png [19:47] rick_h: what's GA in the bottom tweet? [19:47] GA == General Availability [19:47] e.g. out of beta I believe [19:51] ah [20:49] I'm not sure how I feel about this wasabi / cranberry trail mix. [20:49] You like it [20:50] I do, but it's strange. [20:50] (trade Joes sells it) [21:05] Hm http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2012/11/how-did-twitter-handle-election-tweets-less-ruby-more-java/
