[12:24] <rick_h_> https://twitter.com/JKCorden/status/379901139896242176 to start your day
[13:54] <rick_h_> well, N4 is all sold out, bring on the N5
[13:57] <brousch> I ordered a Nexus 7
[13:58] <rick_h_> cool, I almost got to sell mine
[13:58] <rick_h_> but then my wife saw it on the charger and thanked me for fixing it so that she could use it on her conference trip :/
[13:59] <brousch> hah
[13:59] <brousch> You have a 10 don't you?
[14:00] <rick_h_> yea, so I gave her teh 7 to see how she liked it. She used it once and the batter was so dead I had to go and do a recovery on it to get it to boot
[14:00] <rick_h_> since she's not used it I figured I'd get rid of it while someone could still use it but now she wants it for her trip next month
[14:00] <rick_h_> so she'll use it 3 days in 6mo
[14:00] <brousch> Is it the original 7 or the HD 7?
[14:01] <rick_h_> original
[14:01] <brousch> I have found the 10s are just too big for me to use comfortably
[14:01] <brousch> 1920x1200 on a 7" gives me a geek-on
[14:02] <rick_h_> <3 my 10, but I use it differently than I did the 7
[14:02] <rick_h_> the 7 replaced most of my phone use, the 10 replaces some laptop use
[14:02] <cmaloney> Good morning
[14:02] <cmaloney> Having quite the "welcome back"
[14:02] <rick_h_> yea?
[14:02] <rick_h_> welcome back to work?
[14:02] <cmaloney> Yeah. Someone changed the database.
[14:03] <cmaloney> broke shit.
[14:03] <rick_h_> doh
[14:04] <jrwren> wait... you can drain the batery on a nexus7 so low that you have to do a recovery on it????
[14:05] <rick_h_> jrwren: evidently
[14:06] <rick_h_> if it sits unplugged for 6mo it's not happy
[14:13] <brousch> I had a similar issue on my HP touchpad
[14:13] <brousch> It drained, then wouldn't charge, so I let it sit for like 6 months and then it charged again
[14:21] <rick_h_> well after sitting on the charger overnight it would boot enough for me to trigger recovery mode. Then after running through that it would charge the rest of the way normally
[14:30] <jrwren> that is so funny. yet antoher reason I like iOS
[14:32] <rick_h_> to each their own :P
[14:32] <brousch> At least you get something out of the over-priced proprietary chargers, eh?
[14:33] <jrwren> are they over priced? I don't know. I've never seen a charger for sale for a samsung device.
[14:33] <rick_h_> that was funny at a sprint. Guy needed a phone charger and 6 of us whip out microusb cables and of course he's got an iphone and we all go "oh well..."
[14:33] <jrwren> that is funny.
[14:34] <rick_h_> now that I've got the other BT speaker everything I have uses the microusb so I pack 4 or 5 of them for travel
[14:35] <rick_h_> the old BT speaker was mini-usb, just had to be different :P
[14:38] <jrwren> i don't have any microusb devices, only miniusb devices.
[14:38] <rick_h_> really? ouch
[14:38] <jrwren> i should clarify that I don't use any of them anymore.
[14:39] <rick_h_> man, my pocket battery, phone, tablet, BT speaker, travel router, bt headphones, and bt keyboard are all micro
[14:39] <brousch> RPi
[14:41] <brousch> rick_h_: I got a travel battery for an RPi project, but now I have it with me all of the time
[14:41] <rick_h_> brousch: yea, I love mine. I run my travel router off it and don't need to plug it into the laptop. So handy when traveling, using gps a bunch
[14:46] <brousch> Can run the mk802+ from it too (with micro-mini adapter)
[14:50] <jrwren> RPi is usbmini, not usbmicro IIRC
[14:50] <jrwren> mk802 is usbmini
[14:50] <jrwren> beagleboneblack, I'm trying to remember... might be usbmini
[14:50] <jrwren> I do actually use my RPi, but it just sits stationary, so I don't plug its power
[14:52] <brousch> http://www.raspberrypi.org/quick-start-guide
[14:52] <jrwren> damn. i guess I do have and use a microusb device.
[14:52] <rick_h_> lol
[14:53] <rick_h_> it's ok, I can loan you a cable for it from my closet of 20
[14:54] <jrwren> someday, I might take you up on that.
[14:54] <rick_h_> O...M...G yay yay yay please please please https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2013-September/128723.html
[14:57] <brousch> Ug, yeah, getting to virtualenv on Windows is too many steps: install python, download and run ez_Setup (setuptools), easy_install pip, pip install virtualenv
[14:58] <rick_h_> well virtualenv is in py3 so that's there, but pip is not. So you can't just create a virtualenv and start installing deps
[14:59] <brousch> That is silly
[14:59] <brousch> Doesn't virtualenv include its own pip?
[14:59] <brousch> Maybe not in the bundled venv
[15:00] <jrwren> virtualenv is not venv
[15:00] <rick_h_> venv is stdlib version of virtualenv
[15:00] <jrwren> right, very stripped, IMO to the point of being too different and not as useflu
[15:03] <rick_h_> yea, this would help that immensely
[15:03] <rick_h_> which is why it makes me happy to see it proposed and I hope it gets in
[15:05] <jrwren> kind of weird. isn't easy_install default now?
[15:06] <brousch> easy_install sucks because it doesn't have an uninstall
[15:06] <rick_h_> http://insights.ubuntu.com/news/press-releases/ubuntu-on-windows-azure-gets-the-juju-magic/ ugh that IE will never go away :P
[15:07] <rick_h_> jrwren: yea, but it's got such giant flaws/limitations that no one uses it in real life
[15:07] <rick_h_> at least not for dev/etc.
[18:34] <mathomastech> Getting ready to buy a domain name. Any suggestions on who to go with, or who to avoid?
[18:35] <waf> avoid godaddy
[18:35] <greg-g> gandi.net
[18:35] <greg-g> go with
[18:36] <waf> i'm also a fan of iwantmyname.com
[18:36] <waf> i think both gandi and iwantmyname took a stand against SOPA
[18:37] <rick_h_> hover.com here
[18:37] <mathomastech> Awesome. Ill take a look at all 3.
[18:38] <greg-g> gandi also donates to Free Software projects heavily
[18:38] <greg-g> (free hosting etc)
[18:38] <rick_h_> ok, this is nuts https://github.com/blog/1633-3d-file-diffs
[18:39] <brousch> I use Dreamhost since I have hosting there
[18:43] <jrwren> mathomastech: dnsimple is the only one
[18:43] <jrwren> if you don't buy from dnsimple, then you hate
[18:43] <jrwren> dnsimple completed my feature request a few hrs after I requested it.
[18:44] <greg-g> I hate much
[18:44] <greg-g> sorry, muchly
[18:45] <jrwren> SSHFP record editor had free form input for Algorith, i requested drop down. now its dropdown with choices of RSA1 and DSS2.
[18:45] <jrwren> does SSHFP not support ECDSA?
[18:45] <jrwren> oh, it is, its record 3.
[18:45] <jrwren> I should request that to be updated :)
[18:51] <mathomastech> Ok, so next question.   mathomastech.me   or   mathomastech.com?  I was thinking .me
[18:51] <mathomastech> or .io
[18:51] <mathomastech> So many hard decisions.
[18:51] <rick_h_> all of the above, own the brand
[18:53] <brousch> Do you want people to be able to pronounce it or remember it?
[18:54] <mathomastech> I suppose both. But remember is propably more important.
[18:54] <greg-g> I go with .net, since I'm not a business
[18:55] <brousch> Heh, I was implying that both names are too complicated if you want people to remember it or pronounce it
[18:56] <brousch> math? o! mas tech!
[18:56] <greg-g> yah, my name sucks, too
[18:57] <mathomastech> Heh. Its not a site for a business. Just my personal, information site. So chances are people wouln't be going to it unless they were sent a link.
[19:00] <waf> mathomaste.ch
[19:00] <waf> domain hacks, are cool.
[19:00] <waf> (to be read in the voice of The Doctor)
[19:00] <jrwren> sonic.screw.driv.er
[19:00] <greg-g> My buddy Nathan Kinkade has the email address: nath@nkinka.de
[19:01] <waf> "mathomaste" sounds vaguely Indian, like "namaste"
[19:01] <waf> greg-g: haha, nice
[19:02] <mathomastech> waf: I like that. And its available.
[19:24] <mathomastech> There we go. Domain purchased, github configured. Just need to wait for the url to become active.
[19:54] <waf> mathomastech: oh god what'd you do, github.com is down
[19:55] <mathomastech> Heh! Works for me, but that would be pretty awesome if linking my site crashed them.
