jrgiffordUnit193: stalkers?02:13
jrgiffordi prefer to think of it as "internet etiquette". you google me, i google you, we both find out about the other person, and then we can have a conversation.02:17
Unit193I'm kidding, actually.02:17
skellatI have an obvious user name on Twitter: alpacaherder02:19
Unit193I have no used usernames on Twitter. :D02:19
jrgiffordrackspace announced ssds on their servers. yay! \o/14:05
dzhoit's been interesting watching digital ocean users bully linode into exploring SSDs14:10
jrgiffordhey, as someone who has used both, digital ocean is much better, if *only* because of the ssds.15:38

jrgiffordyeah, now i just need to decide if its worth it to me or not...15:40
jrgiffordi'm not sure.15:40
yanosupposedly they will have a yearly package that will be cheaper than month-to-month15:41
jrgiffordI guess I could start using a znc bouncer.15:41

cid420I am running postfix to send and receive emails, the other day it was working on receiving emails, but today i am not able to receive any emails. I have a mail.log but afraid to post it here might flood the channel16:25
cid420Now i just realized i cannot send emails either.16:26
cid420well nvm, i just uninstalled it and reinstalled it.. I found out that ISPCONFIG screwd everything up.16:54
thafreakhi cid42017:03
thafreaknot a ton of server people in here typically...but I'm personally a postfix fan17:03
thafreakyou like ispconfig?17:03
cid420not after it screwed everything up. it really messed up my emaill scripts changing them around.17:14
cid420replacing with there own scripts17:14

yanothafreak: you mean working hte way you want them to, or just displaying?22:28
thafreakheh, yeah working the way i expect22:28
yanoi don't even think Windows can do that22:29
yano:P22:29
yanounless they can read minds22:29
thafreakwindows can't do anything the way i'd expect22:29
yanoon my box Mint defaults to cloning the display22:29
thafreakyeah, same on xfce and lxde22:29
yanobut i got a solution for htat22:29
thafreaki have to run something to change it after I log in22:30
yanome too22:30
thafreakoh?22:30
yanothis is what i run when i log in, http://git.io/rQuBYA22:30
jenni[ gist:c4093ceb8af90b05f9d4 ] - http://git.io22:30
thafreaki've been using arandr22:30
yanoarandr?22:31
thafreaknever bothered to look at running something automatically on login22:31
thafreakit's a gui around xrandr22:31
thafreaklets you drag monitor icons around to arrange the displays22:31
thafreakand it saves the settings as a shell script22:32
thafreakSo, you're saying even mint just clones by default...22:32
yanoi don't run that script automatically22:32
yanoyea22:32
yanoi run linux mint22:33
yanobecause it was the easiest way to get Steam Linux working at the time22:33
yanobut then i found out my graphics card is shit22:33
thafreaki guess there's no real point in shopping around then ;)22:33
thafreakhaha22:33
thafreakwell, I'm switching workstations at work possibly...and the other one has nvidia quadrofx card22:34
yanoand i think Mint had multiarch in stable before ubuntu/debian22:34
thafreaki'm also debating which machine to use22:34
thafreakthere's the one the former post-doc had, which has a core2 quad, so 4 real cores, but no hyperthreading22:35
thafreakand there's the machine I'm using now, which is an i5 with what seems like 2 cores, but with hyper threading22:36
thafreakas far as distros, I'll probably go with whatever docker works best on ;)22:36
thafreakthen I can just run whatever apps i want inside containers22:37
yanoi usually just end up using AwesomeWM in replace of whatever WM/DE a distro comes with22:37
thafreakcrap, well it seems docker can only be made to work well with 13.0422:42
canthus13Anyone in or around the toledo area, Buckeye cable is having a job fair for entry level tech support.22:42

canthus13(I love the short notice.  I was just told a few hours ago that I'm going to be doing interviews.)22:43
thafreakcanthus13....you're alive?22:43
thafreakI'd come if I could just to be interviewed by canthus1322:43
canthus13Nope. I'm not.22:43
* canthus13 is a holographic projection, much like the doctor in Voyager.22:44
