[02:08] no one cares when I go out back and pee on the deck [02:08] it's just a bunch of "omg you're drunk" and "that's indecent exposure" [02:16] ummm that's weird [03:26] jjesse: I think you missed my message for context? [03:26] I just got this email from Carrie: "Rowan just peed on the back deck, came inside to get a rag, and is now wiping it up." [03:26] Yeah, that's weird. :) [12:24] Good morning [12:38] I love how Google takes support requests and calls them "suggestions". ;) [12:39] "we do not make mistakes. we are google. beep beep beep" [12:39] "It is impossible for us to charge you twice for the same app. boop beep boop" [13:29] I almost posted a link here to a Pebble review. Then I noticed it was from rick_h_ [13:31] brousch: :P [13:32] * brousch hits the coffee [13:32] I win one internet point [13:32] 9 more and you can buy a kitten [13:33] woot [13:33] and then I can kill that kitten by boot windows [13:36] eh? [13:37] you know, memes like "every time you boot windows god kills a kitten" [13:37] I couldn't think of a good one off the top of my head :/ [13:37] it was funnier in my head I know :P [13:37] You could certainly kill it by masturbating [13:40] Boot to Windows while masturbating, and be extra efficient. [13:42] Which will finish first? [13:42] Depends on the hardware [13:59] http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/f38f/?cpg=51506275&msg_id=51506275&et_rid=786232919&linkid=51506275_headline_f38f [14:15] I wonder what switches are in there. [14:19] It doesn't say. Hmm... [14:21] http://deskthority.net/wiki/Matias_switch [14:22] So it's a modified ALPS [14:24] Hmmm.... [14:48] <_stink_> i love you guys - just pasted that kitten killing exchange to another channel. [14:48] <_stink_> prepare to be famous. [14:49] I know iOS 6 can break Exchange, but kittens? [14:54] it was wonderful [14:54] what was the aforementioned pebble? [14:54] http://blog.mitechie.com/2013/02/13/pebble-first-impressions/ [14:54] _stink_: The only other channel you've joined on freenode is bookie [14:56] He's also on proprietarynode [14:56] rick_h_: The one downside is that when you do pull your phone out there’s a bunch of notifications to dismiss and you want to make sure you got them all. [14:56] brousch: Who gave you crack this morning? [14:57] newer android has a "dismiss all" button in the pull down, it's basically awesome [14:57] btw [14:57] snap-l: Biggby's [14:57] oh, right, I remember this pebble thing. It looked like it could be neat [14:57] brousch: Ah. Got the double crack soy latte, eh? [14:58] rick_h_: wait, if you have a galaxy nexus you should have that button [14:59] snap-l: Decaf soy nutty buddy [14:59] I wish there was a button on mailing lists for "please ignore this thread for the next two hours, because it's only going to generate a flamewar or "me too" noise" [14:59] jcastro: yea, hoping they can work on that [15:00] was re: Penguicon mail etiquette flamewar that is brewing. [15:00] jcastro: yea, I have the clear button, but it just says "3 texts" and I end up looking to make sure I saw them all [15:00] Oh those are fun [15:01] DIAF bottom posters! [15:01] DITF top posters [15:01] now now, we all know the one true way to handle email responses [15:02] don't respond. ever. :) [15:02] straight to trash? [15:02] :P [15:02] Now top posters and bottom posters can live in harmony. [15:03] rick_h_: oh oh, I see what you mean [15:03] rick_h_: the only thing I hate is the notification spam from apps for updates [15:03] jcastro: yea [15:03] just update, I don't care that 4 of my games are updated, don't mix that in with important messages, ffs [15:03] jcastro: and the clearing of the notification on tablet/phone [15:04] with tablet/phone/GVoice extension on my browser, and watch it's getting nuts to clear a text from the wife [15:04] yeah [15:04] I <3 the browser extensioin though, I do all my work from it [15:04] I don't even dial numbers anymore, I type in there, pick up phone. Blam, instant rick, no numbers required. [15:05] yea, definitely [15:05] nice to text the wife with a real keyboard all day [15:10] Yeah, the browser extension is awesome. [15:11] now if firefox doesn't have one lmorchard can write it :P [15:43] <_stink_> snap-l: yeah, chatspike [15:43] <_stink_> it's exclusive and velvety [16:03] Thank you for being a G.H. Bass & Co. Rewards member! Your point total as of last Sunday is 69. [16:03] I am upset they didn't add "duuuuudes" after that. [16:19] bummer dude [16:49] I know. I consider it a missed opportunity. [17:57] I love tech: http://www.teslamotors.com/blog/most-peculiar-test-drive [18:03] hah [18:07] Yeah, that's a great teardown. [18:08] Scary they can gather that much data, but at least they surface it [18:08] that's what some other friends were talking about OMG SCARY SURVEILLANCE [18:08] but I pointed out that usually you don't give the car back to the manufacturer after a trip [18:09] OnStar, however, freaks me out. [18:09] That and how much of that data is already collected by the car? [18:09] I would hope quite a lot of it. [18:10] this just in: RMS refuses ride in Tesla car, claims proprietary source of control systems oppresses him. [18:10] not that the entire transportation system isn't rife with proprietary software. [18:10] trains, planes AND automobiles [18:10] cheap shot. :) [18:11] I think it's safe to say RMS can't travel anywhere outside of bicycle or walking that isn't goverend by proprietary software [18:11] yup. [18:12] his lines in the sand get drawn in . . . interesting ways. [18:13] http://stallman.org/archives/2012-nov-feb.html#11_February_2013_(Urgent:_Boycott_Hersheys_and_Dagoba_chocolate) [18:15] snap-l: was there a particular item you meant to link to? [18:15] That was just the latest in there [18:15] that site is the anti-Tufte. [18:16] quite [18:16] anyway, my identica account was subbed to his account, which forwards all those, iirc. [18:17] Although Tufte's site is pretty busy for a design / information guy [18:17] http://www.edwardtufte.com/tufte/ [18:19] it's too wide [18:21] haha, he sells graph paper [18:22] yea, the data was collected beause it was a media review and was disclosed as part of getting the test unit from what I understand [18:22] but I have to say I think it would be cool to get a statement like that from my car [18:22] thinking fitbit for my car [18:23] Yeah [18:24] "I believe I'm getting 23.4 MPG, when my average is 27MPG. I've scheduled a tune-up" [18:24] "Be a good boy and drive me to the shop next Thursday at 2pm" [18:25] I got thinking that this is how we'll get self driving cars though [18:25] if I had a system always checking me for over speed/etc driving I'd give up and just let the self driving do it. It'd be no fun [18:26] every time I floor it I get an insurance micro payment charge, over speed limit I'd get a speed ticket auto charged, etc [18:26] Yeah, at that point the damn car should just drive me to the destinatio [18:26] n [20:12] Ubuntu 12.04.02 is released. [20:14] woohoo! [20:15] It should be the best Ubuntu evar! [20:15] Just in time for a bunch of QT and flash updates. [20:15] Seriously, I'd like to know who is bucking for most insecure company: Oracle or Adobe. [20:17] It is a tight race. Which of them uses more Rails? [20:19] hah, true [21:06] It lives! http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920027072.do [23:06] https://www.elance.com/j/website-like-amazon/37294947/ [23:08] if you build it for $750, they will come
