| waltman | For the record, I blamed JonathanD for our bad weather, not pleia2. | 01:06 |
|---|---|---|
| ProfessorKaos64 | anyone have an opinion on XBMC performance of RaspBMC vs. Ouya? | 01:32 |
| waltman | Wow, I'm at like 35 KB/sec downloading from http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ on my linode. | 01:44 |
| jjmiv | heh | 01:47 |
| jjmiv | i need to redo my linode | 01:47 |
| jjmiv | i should probably copy the apache confs first. hmm | 01:48 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Sorry If I am naive, but what is linode | 02:27 |
| rmg51 | https://www.linode.com/?gclid=CJ_a_fegjbgCFcGe4AodGncAyg | 02:34 |
| rmg51 | ProfessorKaos64: ^ | 02:34 |
| waltman | They provide virtual linux machines. Basically you pay $20/month and you get a small linux box on the net with a fast pipe and a static ip. | 02:34 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Nice.. | 02:35 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Very cool | 02:35 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Ill have to check that out in the morning with a cup o' joe | 02:35 |
| waltman | They're very good friends of open source. I've got about 10 of their t shirts. :) | 02:35 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Nice, def. will check it out | 02:35 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | I just got a new Linux shirt today | 02:36 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | but I think I will start making my own | 02:36 |
| pleia2 | the website for this team runs on a linode they donated to us | 02:36 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | on zazzle etc | 02:36 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Sweet | 02:36 |
| pleia2 | ubuntupennsylvania.org | 02:36 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | have it bookmarked :) | 02:36 |
| pleia2 | they take care of us :) | 02:36 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Although I am mainly a Mint user | 02:36 |
| pleia2 | good folks | 02:36 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Does that make me a bad man? | 02:36 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | ha | 02:36 |
| waltman | ProfessorKaos64: yes. | 02:36 |
| pleia2 | no, but you are in an ubuntu channel, so don't be surprised when we give you ubuntu links ;) | 02:37 |
| waltman | ok, no. | 02:37 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | :( | 02:37 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | I know I know | 02:37 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | It's mainly a gnome thing | 02:37 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | I just like cinnamon | 02:37 |
| rmg51 | or Unity | 02:37 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | They are essentially interchangable software wise | 02:37 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | etc | 02:37 |
| waltman | ProfessorKaos64: Who am I to talk? I spent the morning watching videos from wwdc. :) | 02:37 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | nice waltman | 02:37 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | We all love linux, I did start out on various distros and used Ubuntu unitl 10.04 | 02:38 |
| pleia2 | waltman: I saw the apple store in manhattan | 02:38 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | The manhattan store is awesome | 02:38 |
| pleia2 | was trying to find the FAO Schwarz, which is right behind it | 02:38 |
| waltman | which one? the glass one up on 5th ave, or the one in grand central station? | 02:38 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | I felt bad when I switched to Plex mainly instead of XBMC too, but I'm glad I did | 02:38 |
| pleia2 | glass one on 5th | 02:38 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | The glass one | 02:38 |
| pleia2 | I didn't go in it | 02:38 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Its always* packed | 02:38 |
| waltman | I've heard the one in grand central's pretty cool, too. | 02:38 |
| waltman | the newly remodeled one in the king of prussia mall's pretty awesome | 02:39 |
| waltman | it's ginormous, and it's right next door to the Tesla store :) | 02:39 |
| pleia2 | the SF store is pretty spiffy, but aside from not really liking Apple, their staff is a bunch of snobs | 02:39 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | True | 02:40 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | The elevator was the only cool part | 02:40 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | :) | 02:40 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 02:40 |
| pleia2 | it looked cool | 02:40 |
| * pleia2 preferred the real toy store | 02:41 | |
| waltman | I recently learned that there's a second keynote just for devs where they talk about the *real* stuff that's changed. :) | 02:41 |
| pleia2 | lol | 02:41 |
| pleia2 | I am tired :( | 02:41 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | "Android" | 02:41 |
| rmg51 | pleia2: it's still early | 02:42 |
| waltman | tell you the truth, I don't get all that excited about apple stores. they all sell the same stuff. the one up on 5th ave is pretty, but unless I'm buying something I don't have any reason to go into there. | 02:42 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | I'm still screwing around with the Roku I got | 02:42 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | I am on a Mac pro right now | 02:42 |
| pleia2 | rmg51: here it is :\ | 02:42 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Running Mint | 02:42 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | :) | 02:42 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | I just thought it was a solid hardware piece, then took mac os x off | 02:42 |
| pleia2 | I have a MBP, but now that my fitbit syncs with my phone I never use it | 02:42 |
| pleia2 | waltman: 25k steps!!! | 02:43 |
| pleia2 | (yesterday) | 02:43 |
| waltman | yow! | 02:43 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Although I have yet to get a reliable method for brightness control | 02:43 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Fedora 19 beta works perfect though | 02:43 |
| waltman | I barely got 15k for saturday *AND* sunday :( | 02:43 |
| pleia2 | waltman: lost1 was mad, my fitbit is on west coast time so I continued getting points well after midnight | 02:43 |
| * pleia2 cheating | 02:43 | |
| waltman | heh | 02:43 |
| * pleia2 grumbles about having to get on the work vpn to look up holidays | 02:45 | |
| ProfessorKaos64 | I am trying to find a reason to switch back to XBMC, but so far have yet to find one | 02:45 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | pleia2: thankfully citrix receiver for Xenapp works great on Linux | 02:46 |
| * waltman wonders if Drexel's closed on Friday | 02:46 | |
| pleia2 | ProfessorKaos64: HP uses openvpn, so it works fine in linux | 02:46 |
| waltman | doesn't look like it :( | 02:46 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | pleia2: meant no disrespect, it is just what our hospital uses | 02:46 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | I work for a "major" pennsylvania hospital | 02:47 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | wink wink | 02:47 |
| pleia2 | heh :) | 02:47 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | I can neither confirm nor deny it is the biggest | 02:47 |
| waltman | ProfessorKaos64: but not, I'm guessing, a "private" hospital | 02:47 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Not sure what you mean by private | 02:48 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Still "non profit" | 02:48 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | very loosly me thinks | 02:48 |
| pleia2 | heh, yeah, I just get off on the 4th | 02:48 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Same here | 02:49 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | then I have to work fri, then to the outdoors at the parents cabin | 02:49 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | bummer, but I have to save my PTO | 02:49 |
| waltman | ProfessorKaos64: I meant what one "general"ly means by "private" | 02:49 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | I suppose, all I can say is it's the biggest hospital in Pa | 02:50 |
| waltman | or maybe I'm completely guessing wrong :) | 02:50 |
| pleia2 | I don't actually have plans and I like my job (and work from home anyway), days off are just nice because I can go on adventures ;) | 02:50 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | :) | 02:50 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Pinapple Express is on crackle, not a bad free channel for the Roku | 02:51 |
| MobileTurkey | ProfessorKaos64: xbmc works fine on my Rasp, but it definitely chews up the cpu | 02:51 |
| MobileTurkey | video acceleration is seamless though | 02:51 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | MobileTurkey: I know I have used it a ton, but often it leaves me unsatisfied with its performance on 1080p videos among other things. | 02:52 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | I know you can load netflix with the bluecop repo | 02:52 |
| MobileTurkey | ah I haven't the need with my old tv :-) | 02:52 |
| MobileTurkey | that'd be sweet | 02:52 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | But Plex just transcodes like no other beast on this planet | 02:52 |
| MobileTurkey | I just started using amazon prime with my xbox so 'm on that for a while | 02:52 |
| MobileTurkey | anyone going to the Jul 4th show on the parkway? | 02:52 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | I don't know how the hardware decoding is so amazing on the Roku, but it is slick | 02:52 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | What show | 02:53 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | ? | 02:53 |
| waltman | They just added ESPN3 to my apple tv, and I wasted far too much time this weekend watching cricket. | 02:53 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | ha | 02:53 |
| MobileTurkey | http://www.visitphilly.com/articles/philadelphia/fourth-of-july-in-philadelphia-wawa-welcome-america/ | 02:53 |
| MobileTurkey | 'party on the parkway' | 02:54 |
| MobileTurkey | John Mayer is playing... giant concert | 02:54 |
| waltman | The best part was yesterday. This match was coming from Kingston, Jamaica. It was being sponsored by the Jamaican tourist board, and these attractive young ladies who were basically the Jamaican bikini team were on hand. | 02:54 |
| MobileTurkey | every year is a lot of fun | 02:54 |
| MobileTurkey | http://www.visitphilly.com/events/philadelphia/july-4th-festival-concert-and-fireworks/ | 02:54 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Ah, sorry Im central Pa | 02:54 |
| MobileTurkey | 'largest free concert' | 02:54 |
| MobileTurkey | ah o well! | 02:54 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | I will be there for Fosscon as my next trip to philly | 02:55 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | and chinatown the day after | 02:55 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Italian market | 02:55 |
| waltman | The cameras kept cutting over to them every time there was a lull in the action, and there are a LOT of lulls in the action in cricket. | 02:55 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | etc | 02:55 |
| waltman | And the announcers kept trying to comment on them using the same hushed tones they normally use for the match. | 02:55 |
| waltman | "Lovely wildlife here in the West Indies." "Yes, especially the birds." | 02:56 |
| waltman | then when they got tired of the young ladies, they starting talking about all the delicious food you could buy there. | 02:57 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | nice | 02:58 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Next up I have the Indycar 400 in the Poconos | 02:58 |
| waltman | Nice! Do you know if they're doing the triangle or the road course? | 02:58 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | I can look up my ticket , hold on | 02:59 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | http://www.poconoraceway.com/pocono-raceway-tickets-pocono-indycar-400-weekend-schedule.html | 02:59 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Looks like the triangle | 02:59 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Closest i'll get to F1 | 03:00 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Other than the US grand prix, which would be nice to see at some point | 03:00 |
| MobileTurkey | tokens go up tomorrow btw... 1,80 | 03:01 |
| waltman | I flew right over the Circuit of the Americas on my way home from Austin last month. | 03:01 |
| MobileTurkey | you can still get them online now for 1.55 | 03:01 |
| MobileTurkey | @ shop.septa.org | 03:01 |
| waltman | yeah, my trailpass went up :( | 03:01 |
| waltman | wow, free minigolf on the porch at 30th st station every day in July! | 03:03 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | nice... | 03:04 |
| ProfessorKaos64 | Gotta love septa :) | 03:04 |
| MobileTurkey | waltman: I challenge you! | 03:05 |
| waltman | Andy's lab vs Gail's lab! | 03:07 |
| MobileTurkey | bring it... | 03:07 |
| MobileTurkey | me and cricket will take you down | 03:07 |
| waltman | hah! | 03:08 |

| teddy-dbear | Morning peoples, dogs, turkeys and everything else | 12:09 |
| MutantTurkey | zzz biking to work in the rain was a bad idea | 13:17 |
| MutantTurkey | pants look like crap... but I brought a spare! | 13:36 |
| ChinnoDog | It is raining here too. I got wet when I went to Dunkin this morning. | 14:04 |
| MutantTurkey | I hope it isn't raining thrusday. | 14:05 |
| MutantTurkey | I hope it isn't rain thur thrusday | 14:05 |
| ChinnoDog | My new apt is so high I get 4G on my phone. I can't get 4G anywhere nearby on the ground. | 14:05 |
| MutantTurkey | ChinnoDog: how many stories is ti? | 14:05 |
| MutantTurkey | grr, I am readjusting to my work keyboard after working from home | 14:05 |
| MutantTurkey | dis is what I need: http://www.cs.grinnell.edu/drupal6/sites/default/files/museum/Dell_Quietkey_Keyboard.jpg | 14:06 |
| ChinnoDog | I am on the 15th floor and it is the top of a hill. | 14:06 |
| ChinnoDog | The 4G up here feels faster than my cable Internet downstairs. | 14:08 |
| MutantTurkey | yeah around 30th street I get amazing bandwidth... faster than at my home | 14:08 |
| waltman | wifi at drexel (dragonfly3) is faster than my wired comcast nets at home. | 14:09 |
| MutantTurkey | dragonfly3 and most other networks similar don't play nicely with my laptop | 14:10 |
| waltman | no? | 14:11 |
| waltman | df3 ROCKS my old macbook | 14:11 |
| MutantTurkey | i've got a crappy wireless card in my thinkpad | 14:11 |
| MutantTurkey | acidentally got it instead of the awesomely supported intel | 14:11 |
| MutantTurkey | but lately it's been better | 14:12 |
| ChinnoDog | You could replace it | 14:14 |
| ChinnoDog | I saw an N minipci card on Amazon a few weeks ago I was considering buying to upgrade my T400 | 14:14 |
| MutantTurkey | yeah they are cheap | 14:15 |
| MutantTurkey | I have a 1080p broadcom decoder I was thinking about putting in it | 14:16 |
| ChinnoDog | Your laptop is too slow for software decoding? | 14:17 |
| MutantTurkey | yeah.... | 14:19 |
| MutantTurkey | i have no idea why | 14:19 |
| MutantTurkey | no it's not that | 14:19 |
| MutantTurkey | it's just like.... hsync is f'd up or something | 14:19 |
| MutantTurkey | i meant putting my broadcom decoder in my intel atom sorry! | 14:19 |
| waltman | MutantTurkey: You should just get one of those new macbook airs. 12 hours of battery life, so you won't have to worry about micromanaging your disk activity any more. :) | 14:20 |
| waltman | also they're light enough to pick up with turkey wings. :) | 14:21 |
| MutantTurkey | macbook airs are a piece of junk | 14:22 |
| MutantTurkey | my roommate has one | 14:22 |
| MutantTurkey | to small to type on, to small of a screen to bother with, battery life on his certainly isn't 12 hours, and touchpad is a pita, using OSX is a pita, | 14:22 |
| MutantTurkey | no ethernet ports | 14:22 |
| MutantTurkey | no ports of anykind really! | 14:22 |
| MutantTurkey | undervolted and underpowered | 14:23 |
| MutantTurkey | now an X230, small, has all the ports, all the power, a really good matte screen, excellent keyboard... | 14:23 |
| MutantTurkey | actual 12 hour battery life | 14:23 |
| ChinnoDog | Low resolution screen | 14:26 |
| ChinnoDog | I'd rather have X1 carbon. Wish it came in quad core. | 14:27 |
| MutantTurkey | low resolution? they have the 1600,900 now right? | 14:28 |
| MutantTurkey | X1 carbon is sexy | 14:29 |
| MutantTurkey | but... | 14:29 |
| MutantTurkey | expensive | 14:29 |
| ChinnoDog | They have 1600x900 now? Last I checked the X230 resolution was lower. | 14:34 |
| ChinnoDog | I like watching all the little people on the street. | 14:42 |
| MutantTurkey | oh maybe not | 14:54 |
| MutantTurkey | they do have a higher def option though | 14:54 |
| MutantTurkey | maybe better colors? | 14:54 |
| MutantTurkey | IPS I tihnk | 14:54 |
| waltman | I'd suspect the 13" mba to have a reasonable keyboard and screen size. | 14:55 |
| MutantTurkey | yeah | 14:59 |
| MutantTurkey | maybe | 14:59 |
| MutantTurkey | then how is it an AIr? | 14:59 |
| MutantTurkey | air? | 14:59 |
| MutantTurkey | if it's so big! | 14:59 |
| waltman | Because it's < 3 lbs and is thin enough to give you a paper cut? :) | 15:08 |
| MutantTurkey | and so is the x230... | 16:31 |
| MutantTurkey | does it have 4G capability? is it rugged to stand hundreds of hours of heavy usage? | 16:32 |
| MutantTurkey | does it allow you to swap batteries? | 16:32 |
| MutantTurkey | or futhermore, swap anything? | 16:32 |
| MutantTurkey | i don't trust a computer with all soldered on components... | 16:32 |
| MutantTurkey | waltman: btw, have you ever used Octave? | 16:32 |
