rick_h_droid | ugh signed up for hulu. forgot how awful commercials are | 00:10 |
---|---|---|
snap-l | Yep. | 00:10 |
snap-l | I love it when I stream from a site that knows I'm blocking ads, and tells me that I should turn off ad blocking | 00:11 |
snap-l | "hell. No." | 00:11 |
snap-l | It's like telling me I should stop showering | 00:11 |
rick_h_droid | I have to do that to a couple sites. | 00:12 |
Blazeix | privoxy+hulu worked out well | 00:14 |
Blazeix | back before i rage-quit hulu | 00:15 |

rick_h_droid | yea getting it for that, some kids stuff, and some of the wife's cooking shows. | 00:16 |
rick_h_ | lol http://www.businessinsider.com/an-ingenious-way-of-using-google-maps-to-tell-where-rich-people-and-poor-people-live-2013-3 | 01:04 |
snap-l | After a great deal of thought I've decided that MobiDevDay Detroit 2013 will be | 01:38 |
snap-l | the last DetroitDevDays Production. DetroitDevDays will officially be no more. | 01:38 |
snap-l | THANK YOU, EVERYONE FOR SUPPORTING DEVDAYS these past few years. THANK YOU most | 01:38 |
snap-l | of all to my daughters and my wife Sanja. | 01:38 |

Blazeix | aw, sad | 01:40 |
snap-l | Yeah, only got to go that one time, but had a blast. | 01:41 |
widox | seems odd to end them, they were well attended | 02:34 |
snap-l | Probably a lot of familial strain to put them on | 02:42 |
brousch1 | I'm speaking at 2013 | 02:42 |
snap-l | Re python on mobile devices? | 02:43 |
brousch1 | It is weird because the first part of the announcement says how they are growing it to be the biggest in the world, then it ends saying it's the last one | 02:43 |
brousch1 | Yeah, Kivy | 02:43 |
snap-l | Go out with a bang, that's the way I'd like to do | 02:44 |
snap-l | go | 02:44 |
snap-l | Actually, dying in my sleep peacefully is the way I'd like to go | 02:44 |
snap-l | but bang would be a good 4th | 02:44 |
snap-l | sex is #2. Not sure what #3 would be | 02:44 |
snap-l | Reading a nice book on the toilet, perhaps | 02:45 |
brousch1 | What are you, Elvis? | 02:45 |
snap-l | Anywho, where was I? | 02:45 |
snap-l | brousch1: I'm the Elvis of the Creative Commons Metal Subgenre. | 02:45 |
brousch1 | Based on the hype for the event I'll be the crubbiest speaker there | 02:46 |
snap-l | and by Elvis I mean I like Peanut Butter. | 02:46 |
snap-l | I don't know why I try to balance my Paypal account | 02:53 |
rick_h_ | morning | 12:08 |
rick_h_ | and I hate designers...that is all...for now | 12:08 |
brousch | Without designers we'd all still be using text in a console. Think of the horror! | 12:10 |
* rick_h_ goes giddy with delight | 12:10 | |
snap-l | And it's anoter work from hospital day. | 12:11 |
rick_h_ | ruh roh everyone ok? | 12:11 |

snap-l | brb | 12:15 |
rick_h_ | snap-l: +1 | 12:16 |
snap-l | Well, hospital wifi is pretty fast today. | 13:05 |
rick_h_ | woot | 13:14 |
snap-l | We having fun yet? | 15:29 |
jrwren | hyperdex looks interesting. | 15:31 |
snap-l | Ex-Detroit mayor convicted of corruption charges | 15:32 |
snap-l | http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/03/11/us-usa-crime-kilpatrick-idUSBRE92A0HV20130311 | 15:33 |
greg-g | did ars technica rss feed blow up for anyone else? | 16:31 |
rick_h_ | greg-g: not so far as I can tell | 16:34 |
greg-g | must be newsblur or something | 16:34 |
snap-l | new keyboard showed up. :) | 17:12 |
snap-l | So, yay | 17:12 |
rick_h_ | double yay! | 17:12 |
snap-l | Yeah | 17:12 |
derekv | i might order that ergodox | 17:25 |
derekv | snap-l: congrats | 17:26 |
rick_h_ | derekv: bring it to CHC. Want to check it out | 17:27 |
derekv | rick_h_ no doubt, it'd be a while before I had it operational however | 17:29 |
rick_h_ | yea | 17:29 |
derekv | I didn' look at if the firmware they have has keymap switching | 17:30 |
derekv | so it might be in some weird dvorak derivation =] | 17:30 |
derekv | thinking about ordering just blank keycaps and keeping a .png handy for refrence when I need it | 17:31 |
derekv | keycap labels are a fuckup anyways for learning, you learn much faster if you have to refrence something and make your finger "feel" for the key rather than follow your eyes | 17:32 |
derekv | pardon my french | 17:32 |
derekv | ah you know what would be great or at least great for conversation, actual flipswitches for all the -lock keys | 17:35 |
greg-g | nice | 17:35 |
derekv | a toggle switch | 17:36 |
derekv | have like a row of toggle switches on your keyboard heh | 17:36 |
derekv | with funky lights | 17:36 |
derekv | some knobs | 17:37 |
derekv | a bunch of analog meters | 17:37 |
derekv | periodically steam should waft out | 17:37 |
greg-g | :) | 17:39 |
greg-g | "what was that noise?" "sorry, my keyboard overheated and had to blow off some steam" | 17:40 |
snap-l | http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZujUU9khuqY/TFMM_RbZ1YI/AAAAAAAAAF8/bAXlHCZa2Yc/s1600/newcam+054.JPG | 17:40 |
snap-l | Like this setup | 17:40 |
derekv | nice! | 17:41 |
greg-g | snap-l: what the? who is that? | 17:41 |
snap-l | Rush | 17:41 |
derekv | though if I was going to all that trouble i'd also wear some costume | 17:41 |
snap-l | Time Machine Tour | 17:41 |
greg-g | oh, yeah, that's him | 17:41 |
derekv | not like a walmart polo | 17:41 |
derekv | if you google for steampunk keyboards i know there's some neat stuff | 17:42 |
snap-l | derekv: Frankly they could show up in bow-ties and smiles; I'd still go see 'em. :) | 17:43 |
derekv | hot | 17:43 |
derekv | rock music swing music | 17:43 |
derekv | ultimatly i'd start with a huge, draculaesq organ panel | 17:47 |
derekv | in front of a large projection screen surrounded by misc displays, lots of decrative cabling and brass fittings | 17:48 |
derekv | it'h have hammer-keys in a split configuration, intact foot pedals, and then different keyboard/input modules that would swing in/out depending on the focused task | 17:49 |
greg-g | derekv: now that last part would be awesome :) | 17:49 |
derekv | until someones arm gets mangled in the works | 17:52 |
derekv | =p | 17:52 |
greg-g | well, efficiency comes with costs, like everything | 17:52 |
* greg-g thinks of charlie chaplan getting stuck in the gears of industry | 17:53 | |
brousch | snap-l: Rush is playing in GR on my birthday | 18:03 |
snap-l | brousch: you should go | 18:05 |
snap-l | George would love the drum solo | 18:06 |
brousch | He would cry from the noise | 18:07 |
greg-g | get nose bleed section seats | 18:07 |
brousch | There are some way up high seats | 18:07 |
brousch | Like you're standing on top of a ledge with the roof 1ft overhead | 18:07 |
greg-g | ah, the endless "welcome <name>!" email replies to a new staff welcome message at a 150 person organization :) | 18:15 |
brousch | Mark them all as spam | 18:16 |
greg-g | "I'm sorry, I didn't get your email. It was in my spam folder, along with all other WMF employee messages for some reason" | 18:17 |
rick_h_ | lol, good call | 18:17 |

greg-g | weeee | 18:18 |
rick_h_ | yay, 'my co-worker did some stuff...I didn't complete my goals because I was changed what I was working on 3 times last year...' | 18:18 |
snap-l | I set reasonable expectations in my goals | 18:23 |
snap-l | took on oxygen and water, expelled CO2 and waste | 18:23 |
snap-l | The rest is gravy | 18:24 |
brousch | You expel gravy? | 18:25 |
snap-l | yep. | 18:25 |
brousch | gross | 18:27 |

snap-l | rick_h_: What's your opinion of Stevie Ray-Vaugh-esque blues? | 19:38 |
snap-l | I remember it being pretty dim | 19:38 |
snap-l | http://magnatune.com/artists/albums/mlloyola-inaminute/ | 19:38 |
snap-l | Two tracks in, and I'm loving it | 19:39 |
snap-l | but then again, I like Blues Traveller. | 19:39 |
greg-g | I love me some Stevie Ray-Vaughn | 19:39 |

_stink_ | hmm i might like this too | 20:09 |
snap-l | Apparently JoDee doesn't like the slower stuff. She asked "When did we start listening to country" | 20:17 |
snap-l | so now we're listening to S.O.D. because of JoDee | 20:17 |
snap-l | I <3 my wife | 20:17 |
brousch | Did I miss some announcement re: launchpad? "Launchpad and Bazaar are both in maintenance mode where new features are unlikely to get added." | 20:20 |
snap-l | brousch: Not sure if that was announced, but it's been true for a while iirc. | 20:25 |
greg-g | snap-l: SOD? I thought it was SOAD, System of a Down? | 20:38 |
snap-l | Stormtroopers of Doom | 20:44 |
snap-l | aka: Scott and Charlie from Anthrax with Billy Milano and Dan Lilker of Nuclear Assault | 20:45 |
snap-l | (Milano of MOD) | 20:45 |
greg-g | ah | 20:47 |
greg-g | I haven't thought of SOAD in ages | 20:47 |
snap-l | Nobody has. :) | 20:47 |
snap-l | (*cough*) | 20:47 |
greg-g | hah | 20:47 |
snap-l | http://www.blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=184031#comment-2732353 <- greg-g | 20:48 |
greg-g | hah, at least I'm not the only one | 20:50 |

rick_h_ | http://ispspeedindex.netflix.com/usa yay 11th! | 20:54 |
rick_h_ | ugh | 20:54 |
rick_h_ | surprised google fiber isn't more distant, but maybe that's the streaming limit from netflix? | 20:55 |
snap-l | At least you show up on the list. :) | 20:55 |
snap-l | Not seeing WOW on that list at all | 20:56 |
rick_h_ | hmmwell isn't wow another company's network? | 20:57 |
snap-l | I think they were AT&T at one point | 20:58 |
snap-l | not sure if they atill are or not | 20:58 |
greg-g | also, I bet MonkeyBrains would be on there if they didn't limit by some lower bound of percentage of their user base (http://monkeybrains.net/wireless.html) | 20:58 |
rick_h_ | hmm, I thought they were cable thuogh | 20:58 |
rick_h_ | if they were ATT I'd expect it to be a dsl service | 20:59 |
snap-l | greg-g: I love that their coverage map is essentially San Francisco | 20:59 |
snap-l | "The Islands of San Francisco" | 21:00 |
snap-l | "The Fiefdom of Fear" | 21:00 |
snap-l | "Burroughs of Despair" | 21:00 |

greg-g | snap-l: well, they're microwave based, so line of sight, bunny hopping around :) | 21:04 |
snap-l | ugh | 21:05 |
snap-l | Sounds like an idea that we hd at Wayne State back in the 1990s for getting fast internet | 21:05 |
greg-g | hey, it works here :) they're rocking it | 21:05 |
snap-l | Unfortunately line of sight was a pain in the ass | 21:05 |
snap-l | yeah, no doubt | 21:05 |
snap-l | http://ardour.org/whatsnew.html <- Nice new release | 21:29 |
snap-l | Dammit, Python's Timedelta is kind of a pain in the ass for year calculations | 21:52 |
snap-l | Should have used relativedelta instead. | 22:13 |
Blazeix | also the cloud. | 22:20 |
