[01:28] <cyberanger> netritious: idk, lets order one and find out, amazon has them for 1500, and the shipping is insanely fas......oh uhhh yeaah
[01:57] <netritious> lol let me know when it comes in cyberanger
[02:14] <wrst> well the NSA is watching us now for sure
[02:18] <Unit193> My goodness, getting skype and pulseaudio to like each other sure is a task...
[02:19] <Unit193> wrst: Isn't there enough dislike towards the NSA and drones that this is pretty standard? ;P
[02:22] <wrst> ha ha
[02:23] <Unit193> Oh heck with that, I sure made a verbal threat to whomever wrote pulseaudio...
[02:24] <wrst> Unit193: i really have had no issues with pulse
[03:04] <Unit193> ...I think skype just took down Xorg a couple times..
[03:16] <wrst> skype = microsoft
[03:16] <wrst> can't expect much can you ? :)
[03:18] <Unit193> Meh, not sure if Skype, Xorg, or Pulseaudio.
[03:21] <wrst> could be some unholy trinity of all three conspiring to fail at once?
[03:21] <wrst> I wish there was a good alternative to skype
[03:21] <wrst> I suppose hangouts is close
[03:21] <Unit193> Indeed.
[03:21] <Omnifrog> it's a hog
[03:23] <Omnifrog> I mean, why does a video chat need 3KW of electricity to send video packets???
[03:25] <wrst> well can't say I've ever considered how much juice skype or hangouts took :)
[03:33] <Omnifrog> it's 3 KW
[03:42] <wrst> Omnifrog: how do you compute that?
[03:44] <Omnifrog> it's a highly scientific number I pulled out of my ass based to the sound the fan on my laptop makes when I am in a hangout
[03:44] <wrst> ha ha ha
[03:45] <wrst> ok i feel better now i was afraid i was really missing somethimg ☺
[03:45] <Omnifrog> yeah, 3000 watts is a bit of hyperbole
[03:57] <Omnifrog> heh, so ... while wife was busy working in the office I did this today http://imgur.com/a/8ddVO
[03:58] <Omnifrog> she was amused
[05:07] <chris4585> Omnifrog, nice tree
[19:59] <Juzzy> http://www.extremetech.com/extreme/167224-twisted-laser-vortex-breakthrough-could-lead-to-near-infinite-bandwidth-new-science
[20:04] <wrst> Juzzy: you had me at infinite bandwidth!
[20:04] <Juzzy> for sure
[20:04] <Juzzy> the application for this is incredible
[20:04] <Juzzy> no more fighting over spectrum space
[20:05] <Juzzy> i wonderif they can do the same thing using electricity
[20:06] <Juzzy> running more amps over thinner wire
[20:06] <Juzzy> probably not
[20:13] <wrst> that would be great if they could
