| rick_h_ | anyone have java on their machine and can help out https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/bookie_bookmarks/-dBjgd0hLR8 ? | 13:43 |
|---|---|---|
| brousch | rick_h_: What does Java have to do with it? | 13:47 |
| rick_h_ | brousch: that irc thing is java driven | 13:52 |
| rick_h_ | did you check out the image? | 13:53 |
| brousch | Bah, tell him to get a new client | 13:53 |
| brousch | You're coddling too much if you want to troubleshoot his IRC client | 13:53 |
| rick_h_ | lol | 13:54 |
| rick_h_ | so I should send the reply "your applications has been filtered...good luck" | 13:54 |
| brousch | It's really not your problem, and if he can't figure out how to connect to IRC there's little chance he will make the cut | 13:55 |
| brousch | Ideally all GSoC applicants have enough knowledge to help, but I've found out some of them know just enough to get through their classes | 13:56 |
| brousch | And of course they consume more of your resources trying to help on the project | 13:57 |
| brousch | KillerCode sorted it out I see | 14:43 |
| rick_h_ | yea | 14:43 |
| rick_h_ | and still can't listen. Had to tell him 3 times to use the public channel and don't PM me | 14:44 |
| rick_h_ | can't all be winners :/ | 14:44 |
| rick_h_ | for brousch http://goldensnowglobe.com/current-top-10-snowiest-cities/ | 15:35 |
| rick_h_ | I think we're being displaced. I hardly recognize any of the names https://bmark.us/recent | 15:55 |
| jrwren | its a lot of test links. | 16:15 |
| jrwren | bookie123, qwerty98311, anuraag, saienthan why would you bmark google or bmark.us? | 16:17 |
| rick_h_ | meh, it's new users trying it out | 16:27 |
| jrwren | true | 16:27 |
| rick_h_ | yea, have to see how many are real users vs just those doing what GSoC told them to | 16:27 |
| rick_h_ | first thing they do is click the "add bookmark" button and manually enter a url | 16:27 |
| cmaloney | Maybe that can be a project: figuring out active users. :) | 16:27 |
| rick_h_ | heh, yea | 16:28 |
| rick_h_ | do we know https://twitter.com/0x241 ? | 16:28 |
| cmaloney | Yep | 16:28 |
| cmaloney | That's ColonelPanic001 | 16:28 |
| rick_h_ | oh | 16:28 |
| ColonelPanic001 | 0x241 is such a jerk | 16:29 |
| rick_h_ | play hidden much? | 16:29 |
| cmaloney | Apparently he plays that more than Go. ;) | 16:29 |
| ColonelPanic001 | crap | 16:29 |
| ColonelPanic001 | I forgot about that. The phone hasn't been reminding me of that. | 16:30 |
| * ColonelPanic001 goes to the Go site | 16:30 | |
| rick_h_ | heh | 16:30 |
| cmaloney | No worries. :) | 16:30 |
| ColonelPanic001 | there we go. | 16:31 |
| cmaloney | woo woo! | 16:32 |
| cmaloney | Yeah, I usually check it once a day. | 16:32 |
| ColonelPanic001 | not sure if train or juggalo | 16:32 |
| rick_h_ | huh? I'm confused | 16:32 |
| cmaloney | ColonelPanic001: hah | 16:32 |
| cmaloney | woo woo <- train or jugallo | 16:33 |
| cmaloney | juggalo, | 16:33 |
| cmaloney | Whatever. :) | 16:33 |
| ColonelPanic001 | I'm not a stickler for ICP terminology | 16:33 |
| cmaloney | I get disappointed when I realize they're not metalheads. | 16:33 |
| cmaloney | then I get relieved that they're not metalheads. | 16:34 |
| ColonelPanic001 | haha | 16:34 |
| cmaloney | Like finding out someone shares the last name but isn't related, then you're happy when you realize they're kind of a dick | 16:34 |
| ColonelPanic001 | "oh look some black metal fans with corpsepa... wait a second" | 16:35 |
| jrwren | wicked clowns gonna get you if you disrespect their terminology | 16:35 |
| cmaloney | Don't care. | 16:36 |
| cmaloney | I'll just explain magnetism | 16:36 |
| jrwren | MAGIC you mean? | 16:37 |
| cmaloney | http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/fucking-magnets-how-do-they-work | 16:37 |
| ColonelPanic001 | miracles all up in this bitch | 16:38 |
| jrwren | :) | 16:38 |
| ColonelPanic001 | my neighbors probably think I'm a lazy bastard. I am, but still. | 16:39 |
| ColonelPanic001 | Everytime it snows, my wife shovels. Right now I'm sitting under a blanket on a laptop in a warm living room drinking coffee | 16:39 |
| ColonelPanic001 | my wife is out shoveling and scraping cars | 16:40 |
| cmaloney | My wife is doing her accounting homework | 16:40 |
| ColonelPanic001 | it's only because she says it's just a bit of exercise and actually prefers to do it, but at least one neighbor has to have thought "doesn't that guy do anything?" by now | 16:40 |
| cmaloney | we've cut off the out side world | 16:40 |
| ColonelPanic001 | cmaloney: mercy killing is the only reasonable option there. | 16:40 |
| ColonelPanic001 | I had one accounting class, and the main thing I learned was I never wanted to do accounting again | 16:41 |
| rick_h_ | ColonelPanic001: ++ | 16:41 |
| cmaloney | ColonelPanic001: Well, she's learned never to take it at OCC Royal Oak because the head of the department is pretty psycho when it comes to technology | 16:41 |
| cmaloney | that and the whole class is online | 16:41 |
| ColonelPanic001 | it was the third of the three "foundation classes" I took before I could start the "core" classes for an MBA. That class was the last one. It's not a coincidence | 16:41 |
| jrwren | ColonelPanic001: does she mow the lawn all the time too? | 16:42 |
| ColonelPanic001 | no :( | 16:42 |
| ColonelPanic001 | I do that one. | 16:42 |
| ColonelPanic001 | We just bought the house in August, I'm re-learning habits I lost from apartment dwelling. like ever having to do anything outside ever. | 16:42 |
| rick_h_ | lol | 16:43 |
| ColonelPanic001 | 2013 was eventful. heh. | 16:43 |
| rick_h_ | welcome to the out of doors | 16:43 |
| ColonelPanic001 | is scary. someone turn down that light. | 16:43 |
| jrwren | ColonelPanic001: same here. condo to house. this was my first year shoveling since I was a teenager. | 16:43 |
| ColonelPanic001 | I don't mind shoveling much, it's the lawn stuff. and fixing stuff. and everything else. | 16:44 |
| jrwren | i'm moderately handy. who knew?! :) | 16:44 |
| ColonelPanic001 | I... am less handy. So far anyway. | 16:44 |
| ColonelPanic001 | learning as I go. | 16:44 |
| ColonelPanic001 | for example, now I know how to hire a company to replace a roof. There's something I'll need to do all the time. | 16:45 |
| cmaloney | Nah, get out there with hammers, nails, and shingles and do a little dance up there. :) | 16:46 |
| ColonelPanic001 | I have to climb up there as it is and pop a piece of siding back in place, it's sticking out a little. I suspect my wife expects this to be certain death | 16:47 |
| ColonelPanic001 | to be fair, I have the balance and grace of a drunken fish out of water | 16:48 |
| ColonelPanic001 | but still. bad enough | 16:48 |
| cmaloney | heh | 17:02 |
| jrwren | ColonelPanic001: lol, I'd not tackle a roof. that does not make you not handy | 17:12 |
| rick_h_ | +1 | 17:14 |
| rick_h_ | I'm not going to be doing my own roof any time soon but I think I'm partially handy | 17:14 |
| ColonelPanic001 | I can snake a drain. | 17:14 |
| rick_h_ | just have to do some faucets, outlets, light fixtures, etc. All good | 17:14 |
| ColonelPanic001 | oh, and I did replace and wire an exhaust fan in the bathroom. took me all day but I didn't electrocute myself, so that's good | 17:15 |
| ColonelPanic001 | I was holding onto the ground wire, literally, when I heard a crash of thunder though. heh | 17:15 |
| jrwren | can you rebuild a toilet? want to come do mine? | 17:16 |
| jrwren | electrocuting yourself isn't bad. I did it all the time when replacing outlets with the power on :) | 17:17 |
| rick_h_ | :) same here | 17:17 |
| rick_h_ | freaks my wife out but it's a good buzz | 17:17 |
| ColonelPanic001 | I cannot replace a toilet. or at least, haven't done it yet | 17:19 |
| ColonelPanic001 | I can't even get in mine. the counter is all one piece, and goes over it. I have no idea why someone thought that would work out | 17:19 |
| ColonelPanic001 | so I can't even get the top to seat on top again. ugh | 17:20 |
| rick_h_ | lol | 17:20 |
| rick_h_ | yea, I had mine replaced but mainly because it wasn't that much to have them do it and they took care of disposal of the old one | 17:21 |
| ColonelPanic001 | disposal? I figured it'd be a chair. | 17:21 |
| rick_h_ | lol, needed another reading chair in the library! | 17:21 |
| ColonelPanic001 | perfect | 17:27 |
| ColonelPanic001 | use the tank as a beer cooler | 17:27 |
| jrwren | i wrote a book review: http://jrwren.wrenfam.com/blog/2014/03/02/book-review-beaglebone-robotics-projects/ | 18:23 |
| jrwren | omg, i just moved snow and over did it. my lungs hurt for a bit there. | 18:24 |
| jrwren | this snow isn't even that heavy | 18:24 |
| rick_h_ | ouch | 18:33 |
| jrwren | i guess I'm outta shape | 18:39 |
| jrwren | i need muh bike!!! | 18:39 |
| cmaloney | heh | 20:04 |
