[00:09] <waf> is your question about how to do that in general, or whether that specific image works? if the former, you can just 'dd' it.
[00:10] <rick_h_> yea, dd ftw
[00:10] <rick_h_> sudo dd if=ubuntu-13.04-beta2-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdc
[00:10] <rick_h_> from history
[00:13] <jrwren> i'm wondering if cloudimg works that way
[00:13] <jrwren> sounds like I should just try and find out :)
[01:35] <derekv> =3 ,.o089"
[01:36] <greg-g> uh huh ;)
[01:47] <derekv> looking at this brand, plant technologies.  Thai.
[01:47] <derekv> it has like no reviews
[01:51] <derekv> the last time i bought something with specs too good for its price (a samsung small office laser printer), it worked great for about a year then just became a PITA
[01:52] <greg-g> derekv: what is it?
[01:53] <derekv> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA1EA0YA7292
[01:53] <derekv> probably just get an 8 port
[01:53] <derekv> bbl
[01:53] <greg-g> I meant what kind of thing (tethering right now, so IRC is best ;) )
[03:02] <cmaloney> Apparently the Caribou / Peets in Downtown Royal Oak ran into landlord lease renegotiation issues
[03:02] <cmaloney> acc to my dad
[03:03] <cmaloney> so it may never open as a peets
[04:26] <derekv> greg-g: its a switch
[04:27] <derekv> i want a high quality 1gbe switch with at least 8 ports, lacp and 802.1q tagging, more features a plus.
[16:29] <jrwren> derekv: cisco 3550?
[16:35] <derekv> i can't do cisco
[16:35] <derekv> too many bad experiances
[16:37] <derekv> jrwren: looks like the HP 1910 series
[16:40] <derekv> is a really good value
[16:40] <derekv> a little more than the noname brand but very good reputation
[16:47] <jrwren> is this for home or work?
[16:47] <jrwren> derekv: what about juniper?
[16:52] <derekv> home
[16:52] <derekv> hoping to get something that works for a while
[16:52] <derekv> desktop switches always die on me
[16:53] <derekv> juniper i don't know anything about
[16:53] <derekv> i think the 1910 is overkill enough
[16:53] <derekv> its probably the correct amount of overkill.
[16:54] <derekv> it has 802.1s multiple spanning tree protocol but doesn't cost 5k
[17:05] <gamerchick02> my macbook is at microcenter. has anyone else gotten computers serviced there?
[17:15] <jrwren> derekv: i've had great luck with the trendnet green series.
[17:15] <jrwren> $35 instead of $150+
[17:16] <jrwren> gamerchick02: i've not. for a mac, I think I'd prefer genius bar.
[17:16] <jrwren> gamerchick02: apple has TONS of money. if htey screw something up, they will fix it and not charge you tons :)
[17:16] <jrwren> derekv: you realize you can just run STP on your linux systems, then you don't need an expensive switch to do it.
[17:20] <gamerchick02> the work is free
[17:20] <gamerchick02> it's a drive replace
[17:20] <gamerchick02> i went to upgrade to mavericks and ran the flash update thing beforehand and got an error.
[17:20] <jrwren> oh, cool. i'm sure it will be fine.
[17:21] <jrwren> I got that too, but then it rebooted and upgraded just fine.
[17:21] <gamerchick02> jrwren, nearest genius (apparently) Sommerset mall and I'm... not comfortable there. too ritzy-fritzy for me.
[17:21] <jrwren> ha! i love somerset
[17:22] <jrwren> i like going into Sax and trying on $1600 coats
[17:22] <gamerchick02> BUT i was a good girl and DID NOT upgrade to the newest Nexus 7.
[17:22] <gamerchick02> i did get a new dvi cable for my computer. :-P
[17:22] <gamerchick02> i can't afford a $1600 coat so i don't even bother.
[17:22] <jrwren> i can't either, but its fun to try it on.
[17:22] <gamerchick02> true
[17:23] <jrwren> plus, I LOVE the dirty looks from teh sales people
[17:23] <gamerchick02> i don't dress up for the mall though. i'm kinda scrubby for Somerset. :-P
[17:23] <jrwren> cuz they look at me, and its obvious I can't afford
[17:23] <jrwren> but, what are they gonna do? they can't kick me out.
[17:23] <jrwren> me too.
[17:23] <gamerchick02> they can make you feel uncomfortable though!
[17:23] <jrwren> holes in my 15yr old tee shirt :)
[17:23] <gamerchick02> HAH
[17:23] <gamerchick02> i'd get a glance like "oh, you buy your clothes at JC Penny *sneer*"
[17:24] <jrwren> nope.
[17:24] <jrwren> they can TRY to make me feel uncomfortable
[17:24] <jrwren> i'm above that.
[17:24] <gamerchick02> really?
[17:24] <gamerchick02> hah!!
[17:24] <gamerchick02> maybe i'd feel better if i had someone who just didn't care with me.
[17:24] <gamerchick02> :-P
[17:24] <gamerchick02> ugh i do not want to do my laundry
[17:24] <gamerchick02> BUT it will not get done if i don't do it. so there's that
[17:25] <gamerchick02> and i have a stupid question: why do i have double icons for some programs in my dash on ubuntu?
[17:25] <gamerchick02> like i have two icons for the Store.
[17:25] <gamerchick02> and two for Clementine
[22:04] <cmaloney> Damn cat
[22:04] <rick_h_> party
[22:04] <cmaloney> Managed to burrow into our box spring
[22:04] <rick_h_> oops
[22:05] <cmaloney> So when I lifted it she barreled down as gravity took her
[22:06] <cmaloney> gamerchick02: We go to Sommerset all the time
[22:06] <cmaloney> and I wear geek shirts
[22:06] <cmaloney> Honestly I couldn't care less if someone thinks ill of me because I don't have designer clothes
[22:06] <cmaloney> I figure I'd rather advertise something I actually give a shit about than someone's luxury brand
[22:08] <cmaloney> I don't get paid for their advertisinig, so fuck 'em.
[22:09] <gamerchick02> that's a good point, cmaloney.
[22:41] <gamerchick02> it is sleeting. i'm currently glad i'm home and not out.
[22:42] <greg-g> I wish it were sleeting here
[22:42] <greg-g> sunny and warm, boohoo
[22:44] <waf> can you feel the jealousy rays emanating from my general direction?
[22:51] <greg-g> waf: not quite, the sun rays are too warm for me to feel yours.
[22:59] <gamerchick02> hah
[23:02] <gamerchick02> gonna finish laundry and watch Doc Martin. i'll be back in a bit i do think
[23:34] <gamerchick02> Woot. IRC from the tablet.
