[11:21] <cmaloney> Good morning
[11:45] <rick_h_> morning
[11:45] <rick_h_> tgif!
[11:49] <cmaloney> and how
[13:04] <jrwren> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Q7FTjhvZ7Y see our friend Wolf as Scott Collins
[13:13] <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
[13:14] <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
[13:15] <cmaloney> jrwren: I tried to get the IMDB to change his page over to Wolf
[13:16] <brousch> Got a new Lenovo T540p and running Kubuntu
[13:21] <cmaloney> https://youtu.be/4Q7FTjhvZ7Y?t=6m35s
[13:44] <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
[13:59] <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?
[14:08] <brousch> Yes. It is a useful and wonderful thing
[14:09] <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
[14:10] <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
[14:11] <jrwren> where people is grandparents or something
[14:11] <brousch> Yes, old people
[14:11] <jrwren> got it.
[14:12] <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
[14:15] <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.
[14:34] <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?
[14:35] <jrwren> no, flac is good.
[14:35] <jrwren> he meant rip, not R.I.P.
[14:35] <wolfger> FLAC was ever not bad? ;-)
[14:36]  * wolfger just opposes FLAC on principle.... Between mp3 and ogg I need nothing else. Even if Ogg is pretty much dead.
[14:38] <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
[14:39] <cmaloney> yes
[14:44] <jrwren> wolfger: what principle? do you prefer shorten? :)
[14:45] <cmaloney> I oppose mp3 on principle. I like CD-quality sound. :)
[14:45] <jrwren> cmaloney: yeah!
[14:45] <cmaloney> headroom FTW.
[14:46] <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. ;)
[14:47] <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.
[14:48] <jrwren> you do NOT want to know what I'm doing sans bmark.us
[14:48] <cmaloney> jrwren: Text files?
[14:55] <wolfger> jrwren: the principle of "too many damned codecs"
[14:55] <jrwren> cmaloney: pretty much, yes.
[15:10] <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
[15:35] <_stink_> you guys want accounts on my instance?
[15:35] <_stink_> of bookie
[15:36] <_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
[15:40] <cmaloney> _stink_: I'd make instances on my hosted bookie if I could get off my ass to instantiate one
[16:00] <_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
[16:01] <greg-g> :)
[16:02] <_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_> haha
[16:02] <_stink_> great idea
[16:03] <rick_h_> 5yr program
[16:03] <greg-g> I'm a fan of that model :)
[16:56] <cmaloney> heh
[19:16] <cmaloney> https://github.com/tylertreat/comcast/blob/master/README.md
[19:16] <cmaloney> jcastro: hah. :)
[19:21] <brousch> I applied for more canonical jobs. openstack and landscape
[19:22] <brousch> heh. OpenStack Software Developer and Software Developer - Openstack
[19:34] <rick_h_> brousch: which ones specifically? e.g. what reqs?
[22:28] <greg-g> brousch: I haven't seen your resume or what exactly you're looking for, but https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Work_with_us#Wikimedia_Careers
