| InHisName | I have a / with grub and wish to add to it a /boot partition, what do I change in grub to fix it besides the fstab ? | 03:05 |

| teddy-dbear | Morning peoples, dogs, turkeys and anyone else who doesn't fit any of those categories | 13:14 |
| InHisName | morning | 13:42 |
| ChinnoDog | woof | 14:32 |
| SamuraiAlba | Good bacon! | 14:41 |
| ChinnoDog | i wish i had some bacon | 14:51 |
| * InHisName might have a cold | 15:49 | |
| waltman | cold bacon? | 15:52 |
| ChinnoDog | Cold bacon compress. Doubles as lunch. | 17:03 |
| ChinnoDog | I found the keyboard of my dreams but it is $222 :-( | 17:16 |
| ChinnoDog | http://www.trulyergonomic.com/store/index.php | 17:17 |
| InHisName | But, ChinnoDog, the keytops aren't OLEDs that are reprogrammable. | 18:47 |
| ChinnoDog | But it looks comfy and it fits on my keyboard tray and it does no thave the tenkey | 18:48 |
| ChinnoDog | And really, I'm never going to reprogram the keys. | 18:48 |
| ChinnoDog | (Unless I change the language of the keyboard but I depend on the keys to be the same for that) | 18:48 |
| InHisName | Lots cheaper than the lighted one, Maybe 93% less than last price I saw for that fancy-smancy one. | 18:49 |
| ChinnoDog | I just want a comfortable ergonomic keyboard that is narrow enough that I can keep my mouse on my tray. I don't use tenkey so tenkeyless is ideal. | 18:51 |
| ChinnoDog | And I don't want to do this --> http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?id=215345 | 18:51 |
| InHisName | Go for it then | 18:51 |
| ChinnoDog | I am not going for it. I do not have $200 to burn | 18:52 |
| InHisName | He sawed it off, HA! | 18:52 |
| ChinnoDog | You would think that would break the keyboard, right? lol | 18:52 |
| InHisName | Sure would expect the circuit board to be ruined. Unless designed to be 'separate' enough to saw in right place. | 18:53 |
| ChinnoDog | I don't think Microsoft intended for users to hack off the tenkey | 18:54 |
| ChinnoDog | I have an urge to try it but I am not going to. | 18:55 |
| ChinnoDog | Maybe I will just use a mouse bridge | 18:55 |
| InHisName | do like an organ with two ranks. Put the mouse on shelf over the keyboard. You don't stare at keys do you ? | 18:56 |
| ChinnoDog | I don't look at the keys at all. | 18:59 |
| ChinnoDog | I never have. I learned to type properly. My roomies in college thought it was weird that I would turn to look at them while speaking even though I was still typing on IRC | 19:00 |
| MutantTurkey | 5~I dunno I dont look at keys but I also mess up a lot | 19:00 |
| MutantTurkey | but I don't need to look at my messups, I k just know that I made them | 19:01 |
| JonathanD | My mouse is already in my keyboard. Can't get it any closer. | 19:01 |
| MutantTurkey | i need to work onm my typing skills really. | 19:01 |
| MutantTurkey | JonathanD: that's what I'm saying | 19:01 |
| MutantTurkey | i wann nub keyboard for the deskop | 19:01 |
| JonathanD | You can get one. | 19:03 |
| MutantTurkey | I know | 19:03 |
| JonathanD | they're under $60 now | 19:03 |
| ChinnoDog | Where? (besides the Thinkpad one) | 19:04 |
| MutantTurkey | that's the one | 19:04 |
| JonathanD | ChinnoDog: the thinkpad one. | 19:05 |
| JonathanD | http://www.cdw.com/shop/products/Lenovo-ThinkPad-USB-Keyboard-with-TrackPoint/1854006.aspx?cm_mmc=ShoppingFeeds-_-GoogleBasePromo-_-Keyboard/Mice/Input%20Devices-_-1854006_Lenovo%20ThinkPad%20USB%20Keyboard%20with%20TrackPoint_LVO-55Y9003 | 19:05 |
| ChinnoDog | The reviews I've seen on those suggest there is a technical problem with typing over 40wpn | 19:05 |
| ChinnoDog | I type at 115wpm so that would be a serious impediment. | 19:05 |
| ChinnoDog | I mean, I used to type at 115. I'm getting old, typing is getting slower. Right, jedijf? | 19:06 |
| MutantTurkey | my tying is terrible anyway | 19:09 |
| waltman | ChinnoDog: You need one of these -- http://www.pfusystems.com/embedded-keyboard/hhkb/index.html | 19:09 |
| MutantTurkey | doesnt matter when you are programming | 19:10 |
| waltman | sure it does! | 19:10 |
| waltman | well, it depends on the language, I guess | 19:11 |
| * waltman wants a clicky keyboard that plays well with OSX. | 19:11 | |
| MutantTurkey | I got 89 wpm on a tester wiht 6 mistakes | 19:12 |
| waltman | I mean, I'll use it 99% of the time with linux, but it would make me happy if it had an apple key instead of a windows key. | 19:12 |
| waltman | MutantTurkey: correction, *7* mistakes! | 19:12 |
| MutantTurkey | waltman: do they make aftermarket mac keybaords? | 19:12 |
| JonathanD | I am out of red jelly beans | 19:12 |
| waltman | MutantTurkey: they do | 19:13 |
| MutantTurkey | waltman: I don't think the mac keyboards would be good form someone with typing issues and wrist problems | 19:13 |
| MutantTurkey | they are nice otherwise though | 19:13 |
| ChinnoDog | waltman: That is neat but not ergonomic | 19:13 |
| MutantTurkey | JonathanD: 6 month follow up on my dad's T61. His biggest complaint is the lack of a ergonomic keyboard. | 19:13 |
| MutantTurkey | I was sort of shocked | 19:13 |
| waltman | the cs dept sysadmin has one. it's nicely compact | 19:13 |
| MutantTurkey | the hhk? | 19:13 |
| JonathanD | I like my thinkpad keyboard, personally | 19:14 |
| JonathanD | MutantTurkey: but at work I elevate it so theres a bit of a angle | 19:14 |
| MutantTurkey | JonathanD: I think we are going to buy him one to plugin in. HE types a lot. | 19:14 |
| ChinnoDog | JonathanD: how fast do you type? | 19:14 |
| JonathanD | ChinnoDog: no idea. | 19:14 |
| MutantTurkey | I mean one of his projects was transposing entire books | 19:14 |
| MutantTurkey | so | 19:14 |
| waltman | We've got big ol' logitech wireless keyboards in the lab. They're big and have way too many keys, but they're the first ergonomic keyboards I've tried that don't annoy me. | 19:14 |
| MutantTurkey | http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/secrets-and-sovereigns-daniel-paul-morrison/1006445061?ean=9780974943800 | 19:15 |
| waltman | it's only a tiny bit ergo | 19:15 |
| MutantTurkey | I got a new logitech mouse for like 15 bucks used on amazon - it's awesome | 19:15 |
| MutantTurkey | and no visible laser! (I guess it's infared? | 19:15 |
| MutantTurkey | hmmm... drexel med is joining drexel full | 19:18 |
| MutantTurkey | interesting | 19:18 |
| JonathanD | MutantTurkey: it actually reads your mind. The eye is just for show. | 19:19 |
| ChinnoDog | I think it is down to Logitech wireless wave, MS comfort desktop 5000, or MS natural ergonomic 7000 | 19:19 |
| JonathanD | Meanwhile it's broadcasting each thought to the government. | 19:19 |
| ChinnoDog | mental keylogger | 19:19 |
| ChinnoDog | waltman: I agree they are all only a little bit ergo. sigh | 19:20 |
| ChinnoDog | The logitech one is a monstrosity | 19:21 |
| waltman | http://www.logitech.com/en-us/product/wireless-keyboard-k350 is the one we have | 19:23 |
| ChinnoDog | Maybe I should just buy a mobile keyboard. The problem is that I need to be sure it has full sized keys. http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/en-us/p/sculpt-mobile-keyboard/T9T-00001 | 19:28 |
| MutantTurkey | btw anyone see google glasses yet? | 19:32 |
| MutantTurkey | wow! | 19:32 |
| ChinnoDog | Maybe I will take my measuring tape to Microcenter later and play with some keyboards | 19:33 |
| MutantTurkey | heh | 19:33 |
| ChinnoDog | what are google glasses? | 19:33 |
| InHisName | digital display glasses. ie. bicyling mph, bpm, rpm etc right in the glasses. | 19:34 |
| InHisName | Sorta like what terminator saw | 19:34 |
| MutantTurkey | the first wave of AR devices to hit the market I think | 19:35 |
| ChinnoDog | Oh yea, I saw those. I've been waiting for those to appear for so many years now... | 19:35 |
| ChinnoDog | I first saw those on TV in... 1997? | 19:36 |
| MutantTurkey | late 2013 early 2014 introductory price: 1,500 | 19:37 |
| MutantTurkey | totally worth it | 19:37 |
| ChinnoDog | This is not the only technology that provides this type of display | 19:37 |
| ChinnoDog | It is interesting this is the first one that made it | 19:38 |
| ChinnoDog | (to mainstream) | 19:38 |
| waltman | You think we've got problems with driver distraction *now*? | 19:38 |
| ChinnoDog | You don't have to look down with the glasses though | 19:39 |
| MutantTurkey | right | 19:39 |
| MutantTurkey | they'll say "turn right now" | 19:39 |
| ChinnoDog | I suspect people aren't going to be all that good at focusing on both distant and near field areas of their vision at the same time though | 19:39 |
| MutantTurkey | with a binkly error | 19:39 |
| MutantTurkey | ChinnoDog: yeah I don't know how that works | 19:39 |
| InHisName | Most of the previous ones, required to be in dark room, not outdoors. | 19:40 |
| MutantTurkey | I assumed that sort of fkaed it or something | 19:40 |
| MutantTurkey | faked | 19:40 |
| MutantTurkey | can you make something look far away? | 19:40 |
| ChinnoDog | There was a competing technology that used a prism embedded on the surface of a pair of glasses to refract the display image. idk what ever happened to that | 19:40 |
| ChinnoDog | I think the glasses use a moving mirror but I haven't researched it extensively. It looks similar to the moving mirror prototype I saw. | 19:41 |
| ChinnoDog | I've always wondered if this fancy display technology is really necessary. I mean, the body is capable of converting recignizable signals any any serves into the proper sensory inputs | 19:44 |
| ChinnoDog | There are people that "see" through electrodes implanted in their tongue as well as through cameras that convert visual information into sounds | 19:44 |
| MutantTurkey | I'd prefer juts a signal | 19:45 |
| MutantTurkey | why even bother with tounge? | 19:45 |
| MutantTurkey | nevers | 19:45 |
| ChinnoDog | And if you wear a pair of goggles that inverts your field of vision after a few days you won't be able to tell it is inverted anymore | 19:45 |
| MutantTurkey | just hook me up to usb | 19:45 |
| ChinnoDog | That is what I am saying... Can't we just convert the signal into a form our body will recognize and plug it in? | 19:45 |
| MutantTurkey | couldn't we just sever some useless nerves or add new ones and hook that up to signals? | 19:45 |
| MutantTurkey | you do need to train the body though | 19:45 |
| ChinnoDog | That is true but most of the "traning" is biology... our brain just does it. | 19:46 |
| MutantTurkey | lol | 19:46 |
| MutantTurkey | http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/USB_to_Brain | 19:46 |
| MutantTurkey | right, easy for babies, not for people maybe | 19:46 |
| ChinnoDog | I wouldn't make assumptions like that. Some things change as we get older but not everything. | 19:47 |
| waltman | babies aren't people? | 20:51 |
| pleia2 | ChinnoDog brings abortion debates to whole new levels | 20:53 |
| ChinnoDog | Hey. I didn't differentiate between babies and people. That was all turkey talk. | 20:55 |
| InHisName | starting anac(h)ronistic cron (spelled wrong, from memory) | 21:07 |
| InHisName | runlevel compatibilty | 21:07 |
| InHisName | I see those after logging into ubuntu, then returns to login screen | 21:08 |
| InHisName | I'm guessing something to do with video drivers ? | 21:09 |
| jedijf | zip up your usb port | 21:15 |
