| cyberanger | jedijf: hey jedijf what's up? | 14:12 |
| jedijf | were you cyber /tail/ yesterday and asked me a question that i now cannot remember? | 14:25 |
| jedijf | either way; 42 is the answer | 14:26 |
| === dedi_off is now known as dedi | ||
| cyberanger | jedijf: no, could't have been | 16:38 |
| cyberanger | moving to erie, 8hr drive turned into a 30 hour ordeal, wasn't online yesterday | 16:39 |
| waltman | moving *to* erie? :) | 16:39 |
| cyberanger | waltman: you read it right, millcreek, harborcreek, the area at least | 16:40 |
| cyberanger | waltman: take it your that area | 16:41 |
| waltman | cyberanger: No, it's more that the only Erieans I've ever met have been ex-pats. | 16:42 |
| waltman | er, ex-Eriean. | 16:42 |
| waltman | s | 16:42 |
| cyberanger | yeah, that happens a bit, recession just sped that up for many | 16:43 |
| waltman | It seems cold and snowy and remote and exactly the type of place most people want to move from. :) | 16:43 |
| jedijf | erstazi: should still be Erian | 16:43 |
| erstazi | Erie? | 16:44 |
| jedijf | eriean | 16:44 |
| waltman | But I've never actually been to Erie, so for all I know it's a lovely place. | 16:44 |
| cyberanger | waltman: yeah, but two out of three ain't bad, I can think of more remote places | 16:44 |
| erstazi | Erie isn't remote, to be techical (: | 16:45 |
| erstazi | cyberanger: if you come, then we should meet up for some coffee (: | 16:45 |
| waltman | it's close to Buffalo and Cleveland! | 16:45 |
| cyberanger | eh, it's changed in 11 years, not better, nor worse | 16:45 |
| erstazi | s/techical/technical/ | 16:45 |
| cyberanger | and pittsburgh | 16:45 |
| waltman | "Erie: Only 2 hours from Buffalo, Cleveland and Pittsburgh!" | 16:45 |
| erstazi | There are a lot of nice recreationals to be done as well | 16:45 |
| cyberanger | an hour for buffalo, same for cleveland (or at least the burbs) | 16:46 |
| cyberanger | pittsburgh is worse, 113 on avg | 16:46 |
| waltman | I'm sure the lakefront must be really nice. Well, at least when it's not frozen. :) | 16:46 |
| erstazi | Haha | 16:46 |
| waltman | there's a park along the lake, right? | 16:47 |
| cyberanger | presque isle | 16:47 |
| erstazi | There is a very nice state park on a peninsula | 16:47 |
| erstazi | Yep | 16:47 |
| waltman | that little spit of land that Ridge made sure got onto the PA state quarter :) | 16:47 |
| erstazi | And Allegheny National Forest is only 1.5 hours away | 16:47 |
| === dedi is now known as dedi_off | ||
| erstazi | cyberanger: are you originally from Erie? | 16:48 |
| cyberanger | erstazi: sorta been an 11 year exile, bayfront connector was wip, casino didn't exist | 16:48 |
| erstazi | cyberanger: where did you live for those 11 years? | 16:48 |
| cyberanger | it's a list, bouncing around, chattanooga, tn tops the list | 16:49 |
| erstazi | That is a nice place there. A business colleague decided to move there for retirement (or I should say retreading) | 16:50 |
| cyberanger | followed by fort richardson, ak and tullahoma, ta (arnold AFB) | 16:50 |
| erstazi | cyberanger: were you in the Airforce? If so, what MOS? | 16:50 |
| cyberanger | civilian, army would compare me to a 25u or 25p, but honestly the R&D at arnold and my willingness to just get the job done, no MOS fits perfectly | 16:52 |
| erstazi | (: | 16:52 |
| cyberanger | arnold had more civ. personel than airmen | 16:53 |
| cyberanger | nature of the place, engineering & development, world's largest wind tunnel | 16:54 |
| cyberanger | but hey, it involved linux | 16:54 |
| cyberanger | :-) | 16:54 |
| erstazi | Sounds fun. You delt with radio systems? That sounds fun | 16:55 |
| erstazi | I was 11B for 6 years. (Knock knock, nothing there) HAHA | 16:55 |
| cyberanger | waltman: it's bigger on a 1:1 scale, dunno what scale the quaters used | 16:55 |
| cyberanger | run into a number of those, by job itself I don't know how much I did (those MOS can be abused some) | 16:57 |
| cyberanger | in richardson I did microwave, KJ4JUY (till I get a local call) | 16:57 |
| cyberanger | and might pitch in on fixing something | 16:58 |
| erstazi | 11B == Infantry. I was young and dumb but I should have went 25u or 25p as that sounds more interesting (of course, now!). | 16:58 |
| cyberanger | radio modems were involved in the jobs, mesh stuff, some old troposcatter still running since the 60's | 16:59 |
| cyberanger | yeah, lightweight, you didn't say EOD or MI | 17:00 |
| cyberanger | could've been worse | 17:00 |
| erstazi | MI as in mech infantry? That's 11B as well. 11M was merged into 11B. | 17:00 |
| erstazi | EOD is for those thrill seekers. HAHA. | 17:00 |
| cyberanger | no, (Army) Military Intelligence | 17:00 |
| erstazi | Hahaha | 17:01 |
| cyberanger | yeah, forgot that merger | 17:01 |
| cyberanger | or those with no desire to live | 17:01 |
| cyberanger | know some that had that mindset, did their job and just betted the next device would do it's job | 17:02 |
| erstazi | cyberanger: did you find work up here in Erie? My business is a linux shop as well. Servers mostly | 17:03 |
| cyberanger | yeah, a downgrade for college sake, wal-mart, wouldn't mind doing some linux stuff still, just pulled some old strings for what could pay to learn | 17:05 |
| cyberanger | pell grant only goes so far | 17:05 |
| cyberanger | (don't get me wrong, walmart isn't all bad, just not built for retail myself, something about thinking too much) | 17:07 |
| cyberanger | erstazi: if you need somebody a few hours or something, I can send a resume later (got it on the laptop, not the smartphone) | 17:09 |
| cyberanger | erstazi: doing any embedded work, I hear ErieLUG died off, that suprised me | 17:10 |
| cyberanger | bbiab, phone | 17:11 |
| erstazi | cyberanger: sadly, yes about ErieLUG. I was going to the meetings but I think everyone was in the same situation as me. Everyone got busy. But I wouldn't mind getting that started back up. Just got to get motivated people prepared to host at least monthly meetings. | 17:21 |
| erstazi | I think with colleges starting back up, we can get a good crew going but the problem will come with summer of lack of attendance | 17:22 |
| cyberanger | back, transmission is shot, greyhound and EMTA for a few days then back to PGH to get it, sounds like moving | 17:24 |
| erstazi | Dang. I had to rebuild my 46RE transmission. It was fun but at the same time a very big pain. | 17:24 |
| cyberanger | phone call was just confirming it | 17:24 |
| erstazi | What do you drive? | 17:24 |
| cyberanger | kinda already expected it.....'88 ford f1500 | 17:25 |
| cyberanger | 5.8L V8, auto, not as nice as the straight 6 with a stick for this abuse | 17:26 |
| erstazi | Honestly, check U-Pull sites. Very inexpensive route for getting a used transmission | 17:26 |
| erstazi | I drive a Dodge Ram 1500 with 5.9L v8. I feel your pain | 17:26 |
| cyberanger | would it be worth rebuilding the lug (I remember win. NT 4.0 at PSU last time) | 17:28 |
| erstazi | Yep. I think a large group could come from PSU-Behrend, Mercyhurst, and Gannon | 17:29 |
| cyberanger | that's one of the funny things come to think of it, no lan parties but active lugs in TN, despite two are propped up by college students and quiet down over the summer | 17:29 |
| erstazi | Even Edinboro | 17:29 |
| cyberanger | erie has an awesome lan party, or so I hear | 17:30 |
| erstazi | Yeah, there is a crew that does that but I haven't been to LAN parties in over 13 years | 17:30 |
| cyberanger | yeah, have thin ties to Edinboro, PSU myself, but I'm not CompSci, just makes it harder, not impossible | 17:31 |
| cyberanger | till things settle down, best I can do is keep it in mind | 17:32 |
| erstazi | I think a nice brochure printed out could then be passed to all the CS classes to garner interest | 17:32 |
| cyberanger | yeah, and via some irc channels in PSU's case | 17:33 |
| cyberanger | I know edinboro it'd be just as easy | 17:34 |
| cyberanger | hard part is keeping topics going, one possibility is skip the topic formally, think lunch hang out and show and tell mixed together | 17:36 |
| erstazi | Right, kind of a meeting of the minds? | 17:36 |
| cyberanger | between that and an active mailing list, it starts to run itself, provided mailman stays running and a domain gets renewed | 17:37 |
| cyberanger | yeah, I've seen both done, seen both fail too, no magic formula sadly | 17:38 |

| jedijf | CyberTails: am i jeff? | 20:32 |
| CyberTails | Yep, I was going to ask you if you needed anyone to bring any Equipment with them, like CD Burners for Installing Linux on? | 20:33 |
| jedijf | anyone is welcome to bring anything/everything | 20:33 |
| jedijf | whatever we don't bring will be what was needed - murphy's always in the house | 20:33 |
| CyberTails | OK, because I Might bring my External CD Burner with me to FOSSCon with help with the Installfest :) | 20:34 |
| cyberanger | I wish I could go, went to it three years ago at RIT | 21:03 |
