Time Nickname Message
01:24 🔗 SketchCow We should go after Tabblo
01:24 🔗 SketchCow Or at least investigate.
01:24 🔗 SketchCow It's basically one person raising the alarm.
01:55 🔗 Coderjoe man, pulling this data off s3 is going sloooow
01:55 🔗 Coderjoe actually, it is going a bit faster now than it was last time I looked
01:56 🔗 Coderjoe but I'm still in the a's
02:02 🔗 bsmith095 what data?
02:03 🔗 Coderjoe a bunch of mobileme data I had fetched on ec2. I wanted to terminate the ec2 instance and needed to stash the data so I could release the EBS volume.
02:03 🔗 Coderjoe (I wanted to get a copy to home. I forget if I also pushed a copy to the batcave)
02:06 🔗 Coderjoe or was it an instance store? I forget
02:07 🔗 Coderjoe bleh
02:07 🔗 Coderjoe using the import/export function is probably more expensive than just downloading it, too
02:18 🔗 underscor [9:17:33 PM EDT] Not Ausfer: tell me why i have to manually set up my internet connection, my mouse, look up tutorals on how to run shit, basically spend hours learning how to run a simple .exe file.... when i can go to windows, my mouse firmware installs automatically, my internet connection sets its self up, and i dont have to go to a command line to work anything.. i can get to browsing and doing whatever I want with n
02:18 🔗 underscor o hassel.
02:18 🔗 underscor [9:17:52 PM EDT] Alex Buie: I've never had a mouse issue, honestly
02:18 🔗 underscor [9:17:57 PM EDT] Alex Buie: You must have a weirdass mouse
02:18 🔗 underscor [9:18:07 PM EDT] Alex Buie: Also, you DON'T FUCKING RUN EXEs on LINUX
02:18 🔗 underscor [9:18:22 PM EDT] Alex Buie: That's like "Tell me why I can't put this DS game in my PSP?!?!?!?!?!?"
02:20 🔗 chronomex wine thinger.exe
02:21 🔗 underscor He wanted to run norton
02:21 🔗 chronomex I've had it set up in the past that something does that automatically ...
02:22 🔗 Coderjoe the kernel can also detect windows exes and auto-invoke wine, if configure right.
02:22 🔗 chronomex yeah
02:22 🔗 Coderjoe plus, .net programs are also .exe and use mono
02:23 🔗 SketchCow So if we have things I need to know about, now's a good time.
02:23 🔗 Coderjoe how's the fight with .am going?
02:25 🔗 SketchCow I have to try again tonight.
02:25 🔗 SketchCow Tonight is catchup
02:56 🔗 yipdw underscor: that's weird, my experience is usually opposite
02:56 🔗 yipdw but at this point I've given up on those "hurr durr why dos linux not work 4 me" things
02:57 🔗 yipdw there are legitimate cases but what it comes down to is that you are generally trying to install software on hardware that is increasingly hostile to said software
02:57 🔗 yipdw it's amazing that some of it, like the ACPI support, works at all
03:37 🔗 yipdw on topic, this is a pretty awesome resource -> http://www.fedec.eu/resources.1637.html
03:38 🔗 yipdw gonna archive it
07:26 🔗 DFJustin yay found some more magazine cd-roms in the closet

11:08 🔗 alard Just some search results. They don't even say goodbye!
11:10 🔗 Nemo_bis nope, brutally redirected
11:11 🔗 Nemo_bis and even biggest blogs forgot to (or couldn't) redirect the domain http://civati.splinder.com/
16:11 🔗 SketchCow Hey, so is the projects page accurate?
16:11 🔗 SketchCow Can we make sure we're accurate on it?
16:11 🔗 SketchCow I'm sorry my time has been so scattered lately.
16:12 🔗 SketchCow We probably want to reverse the project list so that it's the project name, and then who's handling it.
19:35 🔗 SketchCow --
19:35 🔗 SketchCow OH KAY.... so itdied.com has been taken over
19:35 🔗 SketchCow and is now a blog of dead animals
19:36 🔗 SketchCow Gotta say... that's definitely better than a spam blog
19:36 🔗 don hahaha
20:03 🔗 chronomex lol
20:41 🔗 emijrp weird, some old posts in current itdied.com are from the original itdied
20:42 🔗 SketchCow Huh
20:42 🔗 SketchCow Well, a smart spam might do that
20:43 🔗 emijrp i can help with the died animals topic, i took a pic of a 2D rat
20:44 🔗 emijrp after a car runned over it
20:44 🔗 SketchCow I blame the rat
20:45 🔗 emijrp http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Rata_muerta_atropellada_por_un_coche.jpg

20:46 🔗 emijrp : (
20:47 🔗 Nemo_bis emijrp, thank you, this is a good counter-example I can use when someone requests deletion of human nude
20:47 🔗 emijrp hahaha, man, there is a whole category Dead animals
20:47 🔗 emijrp it is not just me
20:48 🔗 Nemo_bis emijrp, :-p
20:48 🔗 Nemo_bis this also means that it's not been ignored, at least the keen categorizer appreciated it
20:48 🔗 Nemo_bis I love the herd of people I see working on my photos' metadata
20:49 🔗 emijrp some people take pics of dead animals, other fill metadata
20:49 🔗 emijrp wikipedians are weird persons
20:49 🔗 Nemo_bis emijrp, I must say that your photo is the most horrible in the category :D
20:49 🔗 Nemo_bis But that's life
20:50 🔗 Nemo_bis Every child sees lots of dead pidgeons in any city, so what
20:50 🔗 emijrp And dead people on TV.
20:51 🔗 Nemo_bis emijrp, naah, that's just a habit
20:51 🔗 Nemo_bis not something you can (figuratively) touch
20:54 🔗 Nemo_bis https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Large-Gambian-Pouch-Rat.jpg needs [[Category:People with dead animals in their hands]]
