[00:33] evening. [00:33] i actually had good luck with packaging with git-buildpackage. yay debian/ubuntu [00:55] cool [11:15] Good morning [11:20] morning [11:44] ok, maybe driving to Oakland isn't such a bad plan... http://www.businessweek.com/articles/2013-04-12/hacking-an-airplane-with-only-an-android-phone [11:54] I am so tired today [12:03] rick_h_: Yeah, that one really got some attention [13:07] snap-l: so time to figure out how to hide my android devices from security [13:16] Good luck with that. :) [13:16] Frankly, flying is overrated [13:16] go by boat. [13:17] also, <3 it when I have to fix code that I never wanted to touch in the first place. [13:17] It's broken in the other system too, but because it's all new, it needs to not be broken [13:18] And it's broken because it was never designed to never have data [13:18] so the moment this releases, my fixes will be moot [13:18] And I was so looking forward to today. [13:18] me and my big mouth [13:19] yes, I'm a whiny bitch. [14:02] so, should I take the App.net account that Ars is offering? :) [14:17] hello all [14:17] party [14:21] Howdy. [14:38] 'morning [14:43] yay it arrived! http://www.flickr.com/photos/7508761@N03/8643031022/ 5mo and 10 days from order to delivery [14:46] Looks rather plane. [14:46] ;) [14:46] hehe [14:56] This Synology NAS is slick [14:57] <3 mine [14:59] I put 4 Samsung 840 Pro 512GB SSDs in it [14:59] nice! [14:59] I just have the low end dual one with 2-2TB disks in it [15:00] I might have to get another one for our slow storage. This has such a nice interface [15:26] O_O [15:26] that is a total waste of a NAS [15:26] why the hell would you put SSD into it when you are using it over 1Gigabit ? [15:26] 4 rusty disks can max out 1gigabit, no problem. [15:26] It has an esata port [15:27] ah, that is a good reason. [15:27] Also usb3 [15:27] usb3 is still slower than gigabit, isn't it? [15:27] Really a nice, flexible device [15:28] oh, 5gigabit. [15:28] nice. [15:29] It came with 2 cat5e cables, but no esata, so I have to run out and get one [15:30] But at least I could set it up over the network [15:33] i don't think i've ever seen an esata cable. [15:51] i think usb3 gets closer to 3Gb/s [15:51] but yes, faster than gigabit [15:51] heh, I've got a pair of external esata drive carriers. One 2.5 and one 3.5 [15:51] <3 [15:52] best full system backup/recovery every done. [15:58] Is an esata cable just a regular sata cable? [15:59] no [15:59] well, basically [15:59] yeah, basically [15:59] it has no little notch [15:59] I was htinking that the external one was keyed a bit or something [16:00] but I'd have to go pull it out and compare atm [16:00] http://www.amazon.com/SATA-to-eSATA-Cable/dp/B003ENM5IA [16:00] Well I just realized my server has no esata port, so I need a little more than a cable [16:01] heh [16:01] yea, time to get a new mobo! new computer! [16:02] or a esata card if you want to go the little route [16:02] Forgot how old that thing is [16:45] i thought the external one was powered. [17:59] WTF nobody has esata cards in stock [18:00] Closest computer shop had no cards and no esata cables. Best Buy had a cable, but no cards. Farther shop had nothing [18:29] eSATA never really caught on, that's why it's hard to find [18:29] You can trip on USB cables and cards all day long though [18:29] right [18:30] why do you need a card? just plug it into a sata port. [18:30] eSATA is not the same [18:30] afaik it is exactly teh same, just different pinout. [18:30] has power [18:30] http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/thecus-brings-sata-external-storage,1245-2.html [18:30] I don't even see a hold adequate for running the cable into the server case [18:31] a hole [18:31] Pinouts are the same, but they purposely made different connectors [18:31] cut the connector to fit. [18:32] jrwren: You'd have to cut the connector on the drive [18:32] Or I can delay a few days and order a proper setup from The Internets [18:32] see that notch? [18:34] OH, both places had a bunch of firewire cards and cables. Who the hell uses firewire?! [18:34] Macintosh [18:34] DV cameras [18:34] pro studios [18:35] Not since like 2006 [18:35] You'd be surprised [18:35] I wonder if Radioshack is a worth a try [18:35] http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812200111 [18:35] This is all I frickin need [18:35] Mac-heads swear by their firewire. it wasn't until 2010 that it stopped being as popular [18:36] brousch: Are you kidding? [18:36] Radio Shack barely has anything anymore other than annoying salespeople [18:36] Yeah, but it's on the way home [18:36] I mean, it might be worth a shot, but gird your loins for the inevitable "who is your cellphone provider" question [18:37] and "hey, we have batteries" [18:37] * snap-l just came up with a rude retort for the second one [18:39] i've got a laptop with a failing internal drive, and an external esata connector. This conversation has inspired me to try that esata direct to an external drive [18:40] I'll be interested to hear your successes and failures [18:41] googel esata hacks [18:43] the ones I'm seeing are all adding a hardware port to a machine [18:43] me too :( [18:44] brousch: Also, Rat Shack has esata, but not in stores acc to their site [18:45] brousch: road trip to Microcenter? ;) [18:46] http://metku.net/index.html?path=mods/baby-sata/index_eng [18:46] lol [18:47] didn't load here [18:48] jrwren: See? :) [18:48] yup [18:51] heh, rat shack [18:51] in ham radio circles, I've heard the term "cellphone hut" used a lot. [19:04] juju kinda works around debconf afaict. I'm only moderately surprised. [19:06] I give up. Ordering from Newegg and I'll do it next week [19:07] brousch: That's the spirit [19:14] Too tired [19:15] ah, no it doesnt, it works with debconf. just took me a while to find that part. [23:08] rick_h_: I might be going a bit overboard ... http://imgur.com/A5LZV9T [23:08] what the ef? [23:08] http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130404/01213022571/thomas-cooley-law-schools-reputation-is-dumps-so-its-thinking-about-changing-its-name.shtml [23:09] jcastro: you have a problem [23:09] jcastro: :P hah, I'm still on one razor with one set of blades. [23:09] jcastro: if you get the good stuff to start no need for 20 of them [23:10] oh wait, that's your pile? [23:10] I don't collect crap, that is the good stuff, lol [23:10] sorry, just fixing a broken test and read that as greg saying I had a problem [23:10] yeah [23:10] dude, 4 diff razors? and diff kinds of blades? [23:10] stay classy Cooley law [23:11] 3 more and one for each day of the week. Over half way there [23:11] yeah I like to experiment [23:11] the short Merkur HD is my travel razor, that's why it's so stubby [23:11] yea, that's one thing I need but didn't think the TSA would let me take one [23:11] so I do portable razors for sprints [23:11] the TTO's are the daily shavers, and the one in the box I found today at an antique shop [23:11] the 4th long handle one in the middle is Jill's [23:11] I am convincing her this is awesome [23:12] lol [23:12] you go [23:12] http://www.reddit.com/r/wicked_edge/comments/1c8jrt/found_a_cool_vintage_gillette_at_an_antique_store/ [23:12] jcastro: also, stay classy western michigan university [23:12] I need to find a kickass wood stand for this stuff [23:12] greg-g: there's a cooley law @ MSU too [23:12] it's like, way to tarnish the brand guys ... [23:13] rick_h_: the one TTO is my birth year (1975) so I had to have it [23:13] jcastro: that's cool [23:13] and the other one is a Gillette Fat Boy which is like, fucking the awesomest razor ever made [23:13] 1961. [23:14] you can rotate the knob and adjust the angle-of-attack on the blade, etc. [23:14] ok, time for dinner break before...bbiab
