| rick_h_ | morning | 11:32 |
|---|---|---|
| _stink_ | yo | 12:28 |
| brousch | I love the Python community. I contacted the PyImageSearch guy and he sent me a free hard copy of his book to give away at the next GRPUG (which is a talk about OpenCV) | 12:32 |
| brousch | I'm less enthused about O'Reilly's "partnering" changes. It's all ebooks now | 12:34 |
| cmaloney | good morning | 12:34 |
| cmaloney | brousch: yeah. | 12:35 |
| cmaloney | though I completely understand the change | 12:35 |
| brousch | I guess, but it was so nice to get a box of relevant books from them | 12:35 |
| cmaloney | si si | 12:35 |
| brousch | I was spoiled | 12:36 |
| cmaloney | heh, us too | 12:36 |
| jrwren | egon was right, print is dead | 13:17 |
| mrgoodcat | so many things are dead and people don't even know it yet | 13:27 |
| jrwren | mrgoodcat: whoa deep. | 13:28 |
| mrgoodcat | books (paper of any kind really), cable tv, landlines, privacy, etc | 13:28 |
| jrwren | life is time before death. | 13:29 |
| mrgoodcat | i got sling tv and a digital antenna | 13:29 |
| mrgoodcat | 1000 times happier than when i was paying for cable | 13:29 |
| mrgoodcat | sling tv is targeted squarely at people like me who hate paying for cable or who never have (read millenials) | 13:29 |
| mrgoodcat | millennials* | 13:30 |
| brousch | Print is dying. It's not dead yet. | 13:38 |
| jrwren | print will never die before me. You can have my paper book from my cold dead heads. | 13:41 |
| cmaloney | The Roku is perfect for us because I have a hard time paying for something that is pre-programmed with stuff I couldn't care less about | 13:59 |
| cmaloney | and paying handsomely at that | 13:59 |
| jrwren | i would really like a programmed channel for kodi, that would be really cool. | 14:04 |
| jrwren | channels even, so I could say, when you click this channel it plays this content at this time of day. | 14:05 |
| cmaloney | Well, I understand the need for live programming | 14:06 |
| cmaloney | I get that in spades | 14:06 |
| cmaloney | but having pre-programmed content that can't be changed (eg: it's a Pawn Stars Marathon) is pretty silly. | 14:06 |
| cmaloney | I know some folks use TV as background noise though so maybe I'm the fuddy-duddy here. | 14:07 |
| jrwren | I love a good NCIS marathon on USA :) | 14:21 |
| mrgoodcat | i use my tv as background noise | 14:45 |
| mrgoodcat | usa not a OTA channel and not on sling so i dont get it anymore | 14:46 |
| jrwren | mrgoodcat: I always disliked that. I know that many many people do it. | 14:46 |
