[01:50] <snap-l> 2) Hoover vacuum cleaners are powerful enough to suck up screwdrivers.
[01:51] <snap-l> This has been "I do stupid things so you don't have to"

[14:45] <flipsidecreation> I have never made the assumption that I retain the rights to  photos I upload to Facebook / Instagram / other socials sites that monetize selling your information
[15:00] <ColonelPanic001> heh, because you don't
[15:01] <ColonelPanic001> Flikr at least lets you set licenses, etc. Last I knew, anyway
[15:11] <jrwren> yes you do.
[15:12] <jrwren> you ALWAYS retain copyright unless you explicitly license a work.
[15:12] <jrwren> it is sad that anyone would not assume such.
[15:12] <jrwren> We are a nation of property ignoramuses.
[15:12] <jrwren> did I spell that right?
[15:21] <UnFixed> dont you forfeit those rights when you sign up to such services?
[15:21] <UnFixed> or is that just a companies attempt at covering their asses?
[15:25] <flipsidecreation> I just don't want to pay an attorney to read the Terms & Conditions so I not even sure what I am agreeing to anymore, so I assume the worst
[15:31] <rick_h_> http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2013/04/linux-3-9-brings-ssd-caching-and-drivers-to-support-modern-pcs/ the ssd caching sounds col
[15:35] <UnFixed> didn't realize you could hotswap a cpu
[15:35] <UnFixed> neat
[15:42] <ColonelPanic001> the mouse cursor in the photo for that story is unfuriating
[15:49] <ColonelPanic001> "TCP and UDP sockets now support a SO_REUSEPORT option that allows multiple sockets to listen on the same port. This enables, for example, multiple web server processes or threads to open individual sockets to listen on port 80; any connections that come in on this port will be evenly distributed across the sockets by the kernel."
[15:49] <ColonelPanic001> interesting
[17:24] <jrwren> rick_h_: that sounds awesome. I'd love to try it.
[18:43] <rick_h_> love it: https://www.system76.com/desktops/model/leox3
[18:43] <rick_h_> Ubuntu 13.04 64 bit
[18:44] <jrwren> that is a really sweet system for the price.
[19:05] <UnFixed> actually
[19:05] <UnFixed> thats pretty pricey
[19:05] <UnFixed> no monitor included in that price
[19:05] <jrwren> yes, I was looking at same thing.
[19:06] <jrwren> i mean, I clicked the wrong thing so I thought i was seeing specs for $759, but I was seeing specs for $1400ish
[19:06] <UnFixed> yeah
[19:52] <snap-l> Hm, I think I have enough tracks to make another Club Metal episode in the coming weeks
[21:11] <rick_h_> this is cool. As someone that works from home wanted this for a while http://techcrunch.com/2013/04/29/keen-home-launches-crowdfunding-campaign-for-its-connected-central-heating-and-cooling-vents/
[21:14] <jrwren> wow, such a good idea!
[21:14] <jrwren> one that is so simple i"m sorry I didn't have it.

[23:44] <greg-g> jrwren: so, this is basically a reasonable approach to the Orphan Works issue. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orphan_works also, a project I worked on at UM library: http://www.lib.umich.edu/orphan-works
[23:45] <greg-g> jrwren: however, I think they are jumping the gun a bit, since they haven't completed the clearing house thing that I forgot the name of
[23:45] <greg-g> jrwren: this all came out of "The Hargraves Report" which was chock full of great suggestions
