cmaloneyI wish this band were Cc-licensed: http://hothmusic.bandcamp.com/album/oathbreaker02:52
bookiebothttp://goo.gl/cTJH0H - Oathbreaker | Hoth02:52
cmaloneyIt's essentially a concept album about Anakin Skywalker. :)02:54
cmaloneyGood morning10:58
cmaloneyI think I've convinced myself that I don't need Mac address filtering10:59
cmaloneybaby-steps. :)10:59
rick_h_lol11:05
rick_h_big move cmaloney11:05
cmaloneyYeah, it's a huge step11:10
cmaloneymostly because I'm not too thrilled if I need to get another Wifi router of hand-copying those addresses.11:10
cmaloneyAnd partially because it's a "shed lock". It doesn't keep anyone out other than honest folk.11:11
cmaloneyPretty soon I'll be running an open network and frolicking like greg-g. :)11:15
cmaloneyas you do11:15
rick_h_lol11:17
rick_h_well just get comcast and they'll public wifi it for you :P11:17
cmaloneyMan that grinds me11:17
jrwrenwould you prefer they do it at their pole?12:08
krondorcmaloney: dd-wrt (or other nice firmware), guest network and private network is what I do12:09
jrwrenthe electric company does the same thing technically with their wireless meter reading system. Difference being only the meter person can connect to that wireless access point :)12:10
krondorcmaloney:  I've also seen some throw a QR code on their fridge that lets devices that can scan it connect to their wifi12:10
krondorjrwren:  I think that would be preferable in my mind to using my residence or whatever12:11
cmaloneykrondor: Yeah, I might do the tiered networking at some point12:11
cmaloneykrondor: Finally going to be in a house where I have to think about logstics. :)12:12
jrwrennew house?12:13
krondorif your home ownership is anythign like mine wifi will soon be the least of your logistical worries12:13
cmaloneyYeah,we're moving this weekend12:13
jrwrencongrats.12:13
cmaloneykrondor: Bah, a boy can dream. :)12:13
cmaloneyjrwren: Thank you.12:13
cmaloneykrondor: I'm able to serve most of the current house from the back of the house.12:15
cmaloneySo I was thinking of using WDS or something similar.12:15
cmaloneyThough finding that WDS is a 50% hit is not making me happy. :)12:16
krondoryeah WDS can be a mixed bag and it meshes over wifi so you lose capacity, and it's very dependent on like for like APs.12:19
brousch__I bought some ubiquity WAPs. They should arrive soon12:19
cmaloneyyeah. The previous owners had a lot of coax throughout the house, so there's already holes in the floor.12:19
krondorif you run the ethernet you could just do more APs with the same SSIDs. Versus WDS you can have some issues with sticky connections though12:21
krondorthat is a device holding on to a weaker AP signal instead of hopping to the stronger one closer to it12:21
cmaloneyAh, so similar to "work". ;)12:21
krondorlike such; http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Wireless_Access_Point12:21
bookiebothttp://goo.gl/JUDZ - Wireless access point - DD-WRT Wiki12:21
krondorlike minds :)12:22
cmaloneybookiebot is a bot. :)12:22
cmaloney.echo Hi krondor12:22
bookiebotHi krondor12:22
krondorugh it's early where's my coffee12:22
cmaloney;)12:22
cmaloneyOk, off to work and such.12:23
cmaloneybrb.12:23
cmaloneyGood morning again. ;)13:39
mrgoodcatand to you13:54
mrgoodcati missed a lot of conversation this morning it looks like13:54
cmaloneyYeah, it's a momentous occasion15:39
greg-gcmaloney: buying a house?15:40
cmaloneygreg-g: Long story, but moving into a bigger house.15:40
greg-gcoolio15:40
cmaloneyyeah15:40
cmaloneyWe won't have our Japanese Knotweed collection.15:40
brousch__A bigger house? with room for children?15:46
cmaloneyAnd room under the floorboards15:46
cmaloneyhint hint15:46
cmaloneyActually we'll have room for children. With a padlock.15:46
brousch__Why would you give a child a padlock?15:47
cmaloneySo they can lock themselves in the room.15:47
greg-gcmaloney: so, on this esoteric topic again: what is a simple, easy to use, but also useful local Logitech Media player? One I can install on my laptop, point it at an IP, and play my music?19:33
greg-gI guess I've never been happy with 'em ;)19:33
brousch__logitech?19:34
cmaloneysqueezelite?19:34
greg-gyeah19:34
cmaloneyThat's what I use.19:34
greg-gkk19:34
cmaloneyThere's Squeezeslave, but it is locked to 44.1khz19:34
cmaloneySqueezelite has no interface so you'll need to control it via other means.19:35
greg-ghmm, squeezelite is headless? Have to control it via the LMS itself?19:35
cmaloneylet me share you my script.19:35
cmaloneyYeah19:35
cmaloneyWhich is a "good thing"19:35
greg-gthat's fine, i just setup a home vpn19:35
greg-goh?19:35
greg-gwhy?19:35
cmaloneysqueezeslave has a curses client19:35
greg-gI want, basically, the Squeeebox Touch on my laptop19:35
cmaloneyreason I think squeezelite headless with LMS web page is better is because the LMS web page can do everything19:36
* greg-g ponders setting up a craiglist search for another one, just in case19:36
greg-ggotcha19:36
cmaloneyYeah, tell me about it19:36
cmaloneyhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/7660010/19:37
bookiebothttp://goo.gl/HURVEi - Ubuntu Pastebin19:37
cmaloneyThat's the script that I use for my work Squeezelite.19:37
cmaloneyI run a SSH tunnel so port :9000 and :3483 are pointing at localhost19:38
cmaloney-z is "daemonize"19:39
greg-gI don't hear anything19:40
cmaloneyYou might want to try running it without -z for now to see if there's any output19:41
greg-gnone19:41
cmaloney-d all19:41
cmaloneyBah, later version of Squeezelite needs -s for the server.19:43
greg-gthis is connecting19:44
greg-gLMS thinks it's controlling it19:44
greg-ghttp://paste.debian.net/105524/19:44
cmaloneyDid you select it as a player? :)19:45
greg-gyeah19:45
greg-gI just switched to a flac file from mp3 and see:19:46
greg-gHTTP/1.1 200 OK19:46
greg-gServer: Logitech Media Server (7.7.3 - 1375965195)19:46
greg-gConnection: close19:46
greg-gContent-Type: audio/x-flac19:46
greg-gin the debug19:46
greg-gi just don't hear anythig19:46
cmaloneyVol / mute?19:46
greg-ggah!19:46
cmaloneyheh19:46
greg-gmy sound output was set to headphones, for some weird reason19:47
cmaloneyI know that sound. :)19:47
cmaloneyBut yeah, Squeezelite has active development19:47
cmaloneyand frankly not having to keep another terminal window open == a19:47
cmaloneya+19:47
cmaloneyChances are you'll have a browser open anyway.19:48
greg-g:)19:48
greg-gtrue19:48
cmaloneyThat's pretty much how I ran Squeezeslave.19:49
cmaloneyunfortunately things like TWIT and WRCJ would sound like drunken chipmunks.19:49
greg-gtwit *isn't* a bunch of drunken chipmunks?19:50
* greg-g just walked by their office this morning, in fact19:50
cmaloneyThere's some Java interfaces that mimic the classic Squeezebox interface but they're kind of a pain to use, and don't sound as good19:51
cmaloneyhah19:51
cmaloneyhttp://sourceforge.net/projects/softsqueeze/files/softsqueeze/19:51
bookiebothttp://goo.gl/N8lene - Softsqueeze - Browse /softsqueeze at SourceForge.net19:51
greg-g:)19:53
greg-gthat's as old as the dark them I used last night that totally broke19:53
cmaloneyYeah. It was one of the first things that I tried19:56
cmaloneythen I found squeezeslave, and finally squeezelite.19:56
greg-gand squeezelite is in debian, so, yay19:57
cmaloneyYeah. If I could figure out how to have it do something sane on @reboot I'd never have to manually run "ru_squeezelite" again19:58
cmaloneybut that's another topic.19:58
greg-galso, yay gapless playback20:03
* greg-g goes to test a good test of that20:03
greg-gyeah, perfect gapless there20:04
greg-gparabol -> parabola on Tool's Lateralus20:04
cmaloneyYeah, it's my go-to- player for my music library20:04
cmaloneygreg-g: Do you have last.fm set up?20:05
greg-gthat's a tough one if the gapless sucks, it's a crescendo20:05
greg-guh...20:05
greg-g.np Phlegethon20:05
bookiebotPhlegethon's last track - Strip the Soul (edit) by Porcupine Tree on Futile [17 Jun 2014, 04:30]20:05

bookiebotPhlegethon's last track - Strip the Soul (edit) by Porcupine Tree on Futile [17 Jun 2014, 04:30]20:06
cmaloneyso if you are at work and using ssh tunnel, you can cap it at 160kbps20:06
cmaloneyor whatever20:06
greg-ghmm, might take til the next track20:06
greg-ggotcha20:06
cmaloneyso I've used it at B&N in their cafe to listen to music20:07
cmaloneyor OCC20:07
greg-g"(Note: You do not appear to have LAME installed. Logitech Media Server will need the LAME MP3 encoder installed on your system to do conversion to MP3. You can find out more about LAME here.)  "20:07
greg-g:)20:07
cmaloneyahh20:07
greg-gso, that only works for mp3s? not flac then I assume20:07
greg-gwhich uh... is the main bandwidth culprit ;)20:07
greg-gmaybe lame works on flac as well? 'tis been forever since I effed with lame20:08
cmaloneyit works for flac20:08
brousch__greg-g: It's official. You're not lame20:08
cmaloneyit'll down-sample20:08
cmaloneyso if the bitrate is more than 160kpbs it'll resample and ship that file.20:08
greg-goh, but I need that on the LMS, which is my synology nas, which.... yeah20:09
cmaloneyYeah, that might be a little fun20:09
greg-gno pre-built package.... another day20:10
greg-gi wish it was easy to flash a real OS on that nice little box20:10
cmaloneyyeah20:10
cmaloneybut yeah, if I could keep an SSH tunnel on my phone without destroying the battery I'd be connected to the squeezebox all the time20:11
* greg-g nods20:11
cmaloneyfuck this clopud shit. :)20:12
