[00:04] SMLR is going live now! Video http://youtu.be/6cDQjSKHKb8 - Audio http://live.smlr.us:8000/streaming [00:05] We are also chatting on #smlr [14:06] morning [14:07] heh, funny to see this in the JS weekly newsletter http://nathanleclaire.com/blog/2013/11/16/the-javascript-question-i-bombed-in-an-interview-with-a-y-combinator-startup/ [14:07] seems something like https://github.com/mitechie/Bookie/blob/develop/bookie/static/js/bookie/tagcontrol.js#L464 :) [14:09] heh [14:09] rick_h_: You're Y-combinator-startup-ready. [14:09] heh, I remember when I worked on that and took me a bit to get it right [14:09] To the HACKERNEWSMOBILE [14:10] hah! [14:10] I was thinking "All problems in all things occur in the Bookie universe!" [14:10] Yeah, because Bookie isn't a Todolist. ;) [14:11] And isn't JQuery-padded [14:11] hah, it's not a todo list...yet! [14:11] BookieList here we come [14:14] now that does sound like a betting website [14:31] touch /srv/root/http/remember-to-buy-groceries [14:31] bookmark that; todo list implemented. [14:31] :P [14:45] I want to turn it into a todo list, but rick_h_ wouldn't let me [14:45] I never let brousch do anything fun [14:45] Bookmark things with a todo tag, then remove the tag when it's done [14:46] crap, bookie is just a todo app! curses! [14:46] I still need something for my To-Read, To-Watch, and To-Listen lists like that [14:58] heh, dr who game in the google doodle on the uk site [15:00] look at this BEAST https://www.system76.com/laptops/model/kudp1 [15:01] yea, still no 12 or 13 laptop [15:01] I think they're confused on where the market is today [15:09] agree. [15:09] then again, they are such a niche market, that it may be the case that of ubuntu laptop buyers, many want a beast. [15:10] that thing is actually awesome. I speced one out, with 2 - 1TB AND a 240G mSata and 16G ram, and the smallest i7, it was only $1600 [15:10] that is A LOT of laptop for the price. [15:23] heh, well come to a canonical sprint and you'll see 2/100 tanks like that [15:24] 40% thinkpad x2XX, 40% 13/12/11 macs, and 20% system 76, xps13, misc. And I can't think of many 17" ones in that group at all [15:24] ok, wtf...I just got an email from sourceforge that I've been selected to get a free 'Popular Science' magazine?! [15:26] rick_h_: i hope you don't think that canonical sprinters are representative of all ubuntu users. [15:26] well it's a heavy ubuntu population :P [15:26] but yea, understand [15:26] and hopefully a tiny sliver tiny fraction of the ubuntu population [15:44] rick_h_: Please forward that to me. I'd like to see it (the email) [15:48] cmaloney: forwarded [15:55] tx [16:28] rick_h_: I'm looking at the Lenovo x230; you find any issues / problems with yours? [16:30] jsivak: Looking to downgrade the tank? [16:32] looking for a smaller footprint (especially useful when travelling), but x230 *does* come with 16G of RAM. :) [16:33] Is that a datacenter in your man-purse or are you just happy to see me? :) [16:34] That's no moon.. that's my laptop! [16:34] jsivak: I've got no issues other than the screen res [16:35] Yeah, I saw the 1366 x 768.. didn't like that part. [16:35] the x240 with the higher res is rumored to be coming out next month [16:35] Oh really.. [16:35] so I'll be watching that, but other than that, no complaints [16:35] my laptop has it's own gravitational pull, and the CPU fan has been known to cause weather patterns to shift uncontrollably. [16:35] rick_h_: this one? http://shop.lenovo.com/us/en/laptops/thinkpad/x-series/x240/ [16:35] Hasn't the x240 been the proverbial white whale laptop? [16:36] .. it still has 1366x768.. :( [16:36] jsivak: http://www.designntrend.com/articles/8791/20131029/lenovo-thinkpad-x240-specs-price-release-info-touchscreen-edition-pushed-laptop-ultrabook.htm [16:36] jsivak: right, thus the 'Dec' rumor [16:36] blergh [16:37] stats or it didn't happen. ;) [16:37] ugh, I'm not liking the new body on that ;/ [16:37] :/ [16:37] Yeah, that's looking mighty cheap. [16:37] And the angle makes the touchpad look like it's falling out of the computer [16:38] like someone dropped it [16:38] hmm.. can't get 16G on the x240. [16:39] though at home I'd be hooking it up to a 22+" monitor.. so the 1366x768 res may not be *that* bad. [16:39] my main issue is trying to use the t520 on a plane.. almost impossible. [16:40] Plus, I'm trying to find an excuse to buy a new laptop so I can give my current one to my youngest daughter for Xmas [16:43] yea, I've got a pair of docsk if you want one [16:43] jsivak: that lets you do dual display out from the laotp [16:43] laptop [16:43] I don't use them now that I've got the desktop [16:43] wiat wait.... [16:43] a pair? for what? [16:43] which model? [16:44] x230, 220 [16:44] probably not compat with my x200s [16:44] :( [16:44] * greg-g looks [16:44] yeah, probably not [16:45] http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0047EGO6E/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1 [16:45] whats in my cart waiting to hit buy on [16:46] yea, I've used them for years as I've been laptop only [16:47] me too, I've just been.... dumb [16:47] mostly, it's so I can have the displayport for higher res external monitor [16:48] yea, I did displayport->DVI and DVI out [16:48] and now with the desktop I just use three displays on one machine bwuhahahaha [16:48] jsivak: so yea, if you're looking up upgrade I'd wait and see if the unicorn shows up next month [16:49] jsivak: but no issues here with my x230 and still love it and all. [16:49] jsivak: it'll do dual ssd (msata as a second one) so love the space, performance, etc [16:56] I dislike the x230 keyboard, for what that's worth, jsivak (which is why I'm holding onto my x200s with my hands ever so tightly) [16:56] I don't think it's that bad. I do like the older style better, but it's been bearable for sure. [16:57] luckily wherever I am near a monitor, I have a Kinesis. it's just the couch/coffee shop/transit time that makes me dislike the keyboard [16:59] I have a dual DP/DVI version of that thinkpad dock [16:59] http://www.amazon.com/Lenovo-Mini-Dock-Plus-USB/dp/B0085MQLGC/ref=pd_sim_e_3 [16:59] cheaper too [17:06] *cough* mac book air [17:11] jrwren: worst. keyboard. ever. [17:11] lol [17:16] greg-g: yeah, the new keyboards looked 'less good'.. [17:18] rick_h_: for the desktop + 3 displays: did you use 3 display cards? [17:18] I had bad luck with Xinerama support dying; so I ended up with a Matrox TripleHead2Go hardware solution [17:20] rick_h_: forgot to ask, have you used the x230 on a plane? does it "fit" on the tray-table? [17:21] jsivak: should, my x220 did [17:22] I mean, with the usual caveat of when the person in front of you leans their seat back [17:22] nothing fits [17:22] ah, got it.. the t520 is definitely too big. [17:35] jsivak: yea, it does fit. [17:35] I tend to use my N10 though for the most part. [17:36] jsivak: no, for the 3 displays the card supports it. 660Ti [17:55] http://alekdarson.bandcamp.com/album/panopticon [18:18] jcastro: you get your N4 4.4 yet? [18:18] greg-g: i assure you that macbookair keyboard is not worst ever. [18:18] i'll agree that it is not good. [18:20] rick_h_, no [18:20] jcastro: ah ok. Saw they had released it and it's out there. [18:20] yeah [18:20] it's staggered [18:20] been manually checking [18:20] gotcha [18:21] jrwren: it's in the running, at least ;) [18:21] I keep waiting for N10 2 news [18:22] greg-g: on what are you typing? [18:22] jrwren: greg-g is a kenisis man [18:22] diehard, in fact [18:22] hah [18:23] :) [18:53] anyone know where I can get an automake-1.12 package for 12.04? backports maybe? [18:54] http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=automake&searchon=names&suite=saucy§ion=all [18:54] it was never packaged in any release? FML [20:12] Anybody else delight in marking reviews of books that bitch about the price as "suspected underage user?" :)
