jrwren | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Q7FTjhvZ7Y see our friend Wolf as Scott Collins | 13:04 |
brousch | It's so nice to be back on Linux at home. I've been bouncing between Windows 10 and OSX for like 2 months | 13:13 |
jrwren | you monitoring the win10 network spyware? | 13:14 |
brousch | heh, no just trying it so I can give an opinion on it and evaluate it for work | 13:14 |
brousch | But it's gone now | 13:14 |
cmaloney | jrwren: I tried to get the IMDB to change his page over to Wolf | 13:15 |
brousch | Got a new Lenovo T540p and running Kubuntu | 13:16 |
cmaloney | https://youtu.be/4Q7FTjhvZ7Y?t=6m35s | 13:21 |
brousch | I love this thing so far. core i7, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD, intel graphics and wifi, mini displayport, VGA, 3 USB ports (1 usb 3), SD card slot, 15.6" 1920x1080 display | 13:44 |
brousch | actually 4 usb ports, and a DVD-writer | 13:44 |
jrwren | dvd writer? | 13:59 |
jrwren | desktop? | 13:59 |
jrwren | err, no. 15.6" display you said. WTF?!?! they put optical drives in laptops still? | 13:59 |
brousch | Yes. It is a useful and wonderful thing | 14:08 |
brousch | It's a portable computer that does everything I need it to in the way i want it to | 14:09 |
jrwren | you still use optical? | 14:09 |
brousch | I have a wall of CDs and DVDs | 14:09 |
jrwren | and you use them on your laptop? | 14:09 |
jrwren | i'm honestly asking becuase this use case is very foreign to me. | 14:09 |
brousch | I burn CDs occasionally too | 14:09 |
jrwren | mix cds? | 14:10 |
brousch | I have not ripped all of my CDs to mp3 yet | 14:10 |
brousch | No, more photo CDs for people who are afraid of flash media | 14:10 |
jrwren | where people is grandparents or something | 14:11 |
brousch | Yes, old people | 14:11 |
jrwren | got it. | 14:11 |
brousch | In my previous laptop I used the DVD bay for a second HD or flash drive | 14:12 |
brousch | Made it easy to clone drives | 14:12 |
brousch | This is my anti-Apple computer. It gives me all of the things apple takes away | 14:15 |
cmaloney | brousch: Rip to FLAC | 14:15 |
jrwren | short battery life and non working camera? :) | 14:15 |
cmaloney | You'll thank yourself later. | 14:15 |
brousch | jrwren: In truth, I don't care about either. I'm almost always plugged in and never skype/video hangout | 14:34 |
brousch | Wait, FLAC is bad now? | 14:34 |
jrwren | no, flac is good. | 14:35 |
jrwren | he meant rip, not R.I.P. | 14:35 |
wolfger | FLAC was ever not bad? ;-) | 14:35 |
* wolfger just opposes FLAC on principle.... Between mp3 and ogg I need nothing else. Even if Ogg is pretty much dead. | 14:36 | |
brousch | Oh, hah, yeah, I rip to FLAC | 14:38 |
rick_h_ | hmm, this is interesting. I can't help but wonder if this is in response go google's hub http://techcrunch.com/2015/08/21/smartthings-support-is-coming-to-amazon-echo | 14:38 |
cmaloney | yes | 14:39 |
jrwren | wolfger: what principle? do you prefer shorten? :) | 14:44 |
cmaloney | I oppose mp3 on principle. I like CD-quality sound. :) | 14:45 |
jrwren | cmaloney: yeah! | 14:45 |
cmaloney | headroom FTW. | 14:45 |
cmaloney | That's why I get really annoyed with folks who say CDs are terrible for sound reproduction | 14:46 |
jrwren | cmaloney: although, lame v0 is nearly indistinguishable. I say nearly, becuase for most folks it IS indistinguishable. Only on nicer gear can I tell the difference. | 14:46 |
cmaloney | they're awesome for sound reproduction; but they reproduce precisely what is encoded on them | 14:46 |
jrwren | cmaloney: ignore the vinyl nuts | 14:46 |
cmaloney | jrwren: True. I'm just taking a principled approach to being a bigot. ;) | 14:46 |
rick_h_ | hah, two years too late https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2015/08/21/the-future-of-developing-firefox-add-ons/ "largely compatible with the model used by Chrome and Opera—to make it easier to develop extensions across multiple browsers." | 14:47 |
cmaloney | rick_h_:Too late for Bookie? :) | 14:47 |
cmaloney | It's never too late. | 14:47 |
jrwren | you do NOT want to know what I'm doing sans bmark.us | 14:48 |
cmaloney | jrwren: Text files? | 14:48 |
wolfger | jrwren: the principle of "too many damned codecs" | 14:55 |
jrwren | cmaloney: pretty much, yes. | 14:55 |
brousch | I've just been dumping bookmarks into my crowded bookmarks manager in chrome :( | 15:10 |
brousch | It feels like tossing them in the garbage | 15:10 |
_stink_ | you guys want accounts on my instance? | 15:35 |
_stink_ | of bookie | 15:35 |
_stink_ | jrwren | 15:36 |
greg-g | oh, a hosted bookie again?! | 15:36 |
jrwren | _stink_: where is it? | 15:36 |
greg-g | only if the domain name is cool | 15:36 |
cmaloney | _stink_: I'd make instances on my hosted bookie if I could get off my ass to instantiate one | 15:40 |
_stink_ | mine is working 'well enough' if not perfect | 16:00 |
rick_h_ | _stink_: greg-g I'll send over the bmark.us domain name :P | 16:00 |
rick_h_ | that cert is about to expire soon | 16:00 |
greg-g | :) | 16:01 |
_stink_ | i'm not sure i want that kind of pressure :P | 16:02 |
rick_h_ | _stink_: hey, if you run it for 5yrs it'll be cmaloney's turn and we'll just rotate it :) | 16:02 |

_stink_ | great idea | 16:02 |
