yanothat's what i love about jenni, i can generate lmddgtfy URLs for people01:31
yanoand i don't have to bother with the URL encoding01:31
* Unit193 uses google. :P01:31
jrgiffordi use the !b and !g a lot01:32
jrgiffordbut most of the time ddg just finds it.01:32
jrgifford(!b more than !g)01:32
Unit193Yeah, I won't use Bing, and ddg never can find anything I'm looking for.01:32
yanoyou aren't paranoid enough :-P01:33
jrgiffordyou have to learn to think like the duck01:33

yanoalso, is it evil if I use Linux Mint? :301:37
yanoit's ubuntu-like01:37
jrgifforddebian edition or otherwise?01:37
yanothe straight up Linux Mint01:37
yanonot the debian Linux Mint01:37
jrgiffordbecause if its debian edition, i'm ok with it. if it's the ubuntu based version, well, we've got some problems... ;)01:37
yanohah01:38
yanoi switched to it from Debian stable on my work machine, so I could easily install/play Steam games after hours01:38
yanosince Lint Mint had multi-arch before Debian testing did01:38
jrgiffordcool. :)01:38
yanoand at the time i wanted to avoid ubuntu because it was still too main stream, lol01:38
* yano takes off the hipster glasses01:38
yano:-p01:39
jrgiffordit's funny, at work we're almost a 50/50 split between mac and windows01:39
jrgiffordand the only reason it isn't straight cut & dry is because of the 4 linux users.01:39
jrgifford3 of which are on my team. :P01:39
jrgiffordand out of that, we have a 50/50 split between ubuntu and fedora01:40
jrgifford(ok, i know rhel isn't fedora, but close enough)01:40
Unit193Go Suse, annoy all! :D01:41
jrgiffordugh, ew.01:41
Unit193See?  It works!01:41
jrgiffordi tried, couldn't get my postgresql to work.01:41
jrgiffordlike, i wanted to, but nope.01:41
yanolol01:41
yanomy boss and i use linux at work01:41
jrgiffordif i have to spend more than 15 minutes tinkering with postgres to be as insecure as i need it to be for easy development, then i'm out of there.01:41
yanobut everyone else (sales, and support) all use Windows01:41
yanothen again we are a non-computer company01:42
jrgiffordwe're a byod shop. :(01:42
jrgiffordcauses so many problems.01:42
yanooh wow01:42
yanodo they compensate you for your equipment?01:42
jrgiffordnope.01:42
jrgiffordhttp://launchhouse.com/01:42
yanoand how to they handle sensitive user information on your machine, legal-wise?01:42
jenni[ LaunchHouse | Seed Capital Fund & Business Accelerator ] - http://j.mp/1cgb6Em01:42
jrgiffordit's a coworking space.01:42
jrgiffordso we supply internet access and printers.01:43
jrgiffordthat's it. fairly nice.01:43
yanoah01:43
yanocool01:43
jrgiffordbut also a pain, because you've got everything from XP to tiger (10.4) to rhel501:43
jrgiffordand you have to have stuff that works on all of htose.01:43
jrgifford*those01:43
yanogeez01:43
jrgiffordIts fun.01:45
jrgiffordYou get to tinker with all sorts of systems.01:45
jrgiffordAnd you have to justify every change that you want to make.01:46
jrgiffordWell, almost every change.01:46
yanodang01:47
jrgiffordIts actually nice. Means that we do things once in production after extensive testing.01:48
jrgiffordWe make use of VMs (a lot).01:48
jrgiffordAnyway, that's the fun environment we've got. But seriously, SUSE?01:51
jrgiffordUnit193: ^01:51
Unit193jrgifford: That's the point, actually.01:52
Unit193Make all the linux users agree, annoy all of them. :D01:52
Unit193No, I've never used OpenSuse, nor do I plan on it any time soon.  Debian based is quite nice, and Arch does have appeal as well.01:53
jrgiffordSo. Fedora is interesting though01:55
skellatopenSUSE was nice once upon a time before they geared up to being the best KDE-based distro ever01:55
jrgiffordI could see myself becoming a fedora user when I no longer use 99% gnome stuff and could move to KDE.01:55
jrgiffordLike, Debian and Ubuntu are gnomes are heart.01:56
Unit193I don't use Gnome, I don't like it either, Xfce is my way to fly it.  Yum isn't my favorite, so I don't really see myself likeing Fedora that much, but I don't exactly dislike it.01:57
jrgiffordI just need something that has keyboard shortcuts, a little bit of eye candy and no small amount of documentation.01:59
jrgiffordI don't want to learn Linux and X11 internals to install my OS.01:59
Unit193Not as hard as some make it out to be.02:01
yanoI use AwesomeWM02:02
yanoi love the tiling02:03
Unit193What about conky?  My setup may not look nice, but it's quite functional for me.02:05

jenniyano: Yes. That's extremely strange.02:14
yanoikr?02:15
yanoi wonder if launchpad.net blocks access from Google App Engine02:22
jrgiffordyano: possible. I'd ask in #launchpad just to be sure.02:25
jrgifford(I think its #launchpad.)02:26
yanoit must be doing something funky. because using the exact same user agent and python calls, it works when not proxied through app engine02:34
yanoer wait02:34
yanoit doesn't02:34
yanoso maybe it just doesn't like the user agent >_>02:34
yanoi can curl that link but i can't grab it in python at all now02:45
