| 00:08.27 | ChipX86 | we're too small to have a forum |
| 00:08.32 | kergoth | yep |
| 00:08.39 | kergoth | hell, a wiki page could serve as a forum for us :P |
| 00:08.46 | ChipX86 | yeah |
| 00:08.53 | kergoth | oh well, i wont be using it regardless |
| 00:08.56 | ChipX86 | and I don't have any plans to stick a forum on nakedandfamous.org |

| 00:42.06 | ChipX86 | "Things fall not because they are acted upon by some gravitational force, but because a higher intelligence, 'God' if you will, is pushing them down," said Gabriel Burdett, who holds degrees in education, applied Scripture, and physics from Oral Roberts University. |
| 00:42.39 | numist | 0_o |
| 00:42.40 | scanlime | wow |
| 00:42.47 | ChipX86 | :) |
| 00:42.52 | numist | yay scanlime |
| 00:43.22 | ChipX86 | "Anti-falling physicists have been theorizing for decades about the 'electromagnetic force,' the 'weak nuclear force,' the 'strong nuclear force,' and so-called 'force of gravity,'" Burdett said. "And they tilt their findings toward trying to unite them into one force. But readers of the Bible have already known for millennia what this one, unified force is: His name is Jesus." |
| 00:43.42 | scanlime | ChipX86: that sounds familiar... |
| 00:43.50 | numist | ChipX86: stop, please |
| 00:44.38 | ChipX86 | oohh, a pair of excellent notification-daemon patches |

| 00:50.59 | nullpuppy | http://www.bash.org/?513887 |
| 00:51.04 | ChipX86 | there are other Bug Xs, but the main one is fixed |
| 00:51.07 | scanlime | mmm.. 120mm fan for these disks >:) |
| 00:51.18 | numist | scanlime: you crazy person |
| 00:52.09 | scanlime | I was planning on expanding this to hold all navi's disks eventually.. but with all this great hotswap-fu, I might just juggle disks around and see if I can make everything I actually use fit on four |
| 00:52.42 | scanlime | hmm.. |
| 00:52.52 | scanlime | or I could even fit all my media on 3 disks and use the fourth bay for backups |
| 00:52.55 | numist | scanlime: where did you get your usb <--> ide controller? |
| 00:52.58 | scanlime | just swap in an extra disk, make a backup, then swap out |
| 00:53.00 | scanlime | numist: ebay |
| 00:53.16 | numist | well thats unhelpful at this point :P |
| 00:53.30 | scanlime | you can find them lots of places, ebay and froogle both turn up plenty |
| 00:53.33 | numist | I think you are making me want to build one :D |
| 00:53.47 | numist | best string to use in search? |
| 00:53.50 | scanlime | I'll post pictures of mine if/when it works :) |
| 00:53.56 | numist | excellent |
| 00:53.58 | scanlime | i just used "usb ide" I think |
| 00:54.03 | numist | great.. |
| 00:54.35 | scanlime | I was mostly planning on hotswappable power supplies because the cheap bricks that came with my adaptors were failing so easily |
| 00:54.43 | scanlime | changed my mind and bought a Micro-ATX supply |
| 00:54.51 | numist | ah, never mind then :D |
| 00:54.58 | numist | what are you doing for an enclosure? |
| 00:55.04 | scanlime | those little bricks never seemed to handle the peak currents- I'd swap in one disk, and another would start to die |
| 00:55.13 | scanlime | plexiglass, dremel, power drill, and epoxy |
| 00:55.13 | numist | hehe |
| 00:55.19 | numist | my kinda guy :D |
| 00:55.28 | scanlime | hehe |
| 00:55.32 | scanlime | I have tons of extra plexi |
| 00:55.41 | scanlime | and it'd be hard to find a case just the right size without making my own |
| 00:55.44 | numist | something similar to this then: http://www.atacom.com/program/print_html_new.cgi?&USER_ID=www&cart_id=1539001_66_75_253_90&Item_code=USBD_ATAC_UB_ID |
| 00:56.05 | scanlime | yes, in fact those look extremely similar to mine |
| 00:56.12 | numist | that plus a hub plus a power supply in a box |
| 00:56.13 | scanlime | I think I ended up getting them a few dollars cheaper |
| 00:56.16 | scanlime | yep |
| 00:56.19 | numist | sweet! |
| 00:56.39 | ChipX86 | scanlime: it's alive! ALIVE! |
| 00:56.41 | ChipX86 | it's booting! |
| 00:56.44 | scanlime | >:) |
| 00:56.54 | scanlime | this fan is huge |
| 00:56.56 | numist | thats entirely cool though |
| 00:57.03 | ChipX86 | they said that officially, it was a regression |
| 00:57.18 | numist | I just wanted to load disks onto a machine without using PCI IDE Busses |
| 00:57.19 | scanlime | yeah |
| 00:57.25 | scanlime | indeed |
| 00:57.30 | numist | hotswap, I dont care |
| 00:57.40 | scanlime | the big thing I like about USB, besides hotswapping, is that a bad disk won't just take down the whole raid controller |
| 00:57.43 | scanlime | we had problems with that on navi |
| 00:58.25 | numist | what are you using to do usb raid? |
| 00:58.36 | scanlime | well, you can do software raid over USB disks just fine |
| 00:58.43 | scanlime | but I'm doing more of a filesystem-level JBOD thing |
| 00:58.51 | scanlime | just merges everything at the fs level rather than below that |
| 00:59.06 | numist | lvm? |
| 00:59.09 | scanlime | on navi I did that with a python NFS server I wrote... really gross and slow, but it worked |
| 00:59.18 | scanlime | now that unionfs is a bit more stable, it should be able to do the job |
| 00:59.25 | numist | hrm |
| 00:59.26 | scanlime | no, lvm is like raid- works below the filesystem level |
| 01:00.43 | numist | do they have them cables without power supplies? |
| 01:02.09 | scanlime | not that I could find |
| 01:02.15 | scanlime | if you see any, let me know |
| 01:02.16 | numist | bah |
| 01:02.18 | numist | I shall |
| 01:02.23 | scanlime | I just reuse the power supplies for other things |
| 01:02.26 | scanlime | +5/+12 is handy |
| 01:02.33 | scanlime | had one running my C64 |
| 01:02.49 | numist | actually, if I do find them without, Ill kick a few dollars for one of those... I need a 12v/5v for my desk for testing |
| 01:03.27 | scanlime | they're generally pretty low quality it seems |
| 01:03.30 | numist | Im currently using an old antec power supply, and its really overkill |
| 01:03.33 | numist | :/ |
| 01:03.39 | scanlime | the ones I got get really toasty when you run them at full load, and I already had one fail |
| 01:04.04 | numist | you were using one to power multiple disks though, right? |
| 01:04.06 | scanlime | http://cgi.ebay.com/USB2-0-to-IDE-Cable-for-2-5-3-5-5-25-Power-Adapter_W0QQitemZ5799631051QQcategoryZ41994QQcmdZViewItem |
| 01:04.13 | scanlime | yes, but that wasn |
| 01:04.18 | scanlime | er, wasn't when it failed |
| 01:04.26 | numist | hrm.. how are you doing hotswapping? gank the drive from its ide plug, or undo at the usb hub? |
| 01:04.35 | numist | how did you make it fail then |
| 01:04.52 | numist | whoa, $4 |
| 01:04.55 | scanlime | wasn't doing anything unusual... I think it was running my DVD-R drive at the time |
| 01:04.58 | scanlime | numist: it isn't really $4 |
| 01:05.00 | scanlime | look at the shipping |
| 01:05.12 | ChipX86 | S&H is how they get you |
| 01:05.25 | numist | haha $14.95, piss off, Ill get one at fry's |
| 01:05.37 | scanlime | it's still a tiny bit cheaper than those $20 ones |
| 01:05.41 | numist | yeah |
| 01:05.43 | scanlime | I couldn't find any affordable ones at fry's |
| 01:05.46 | numist | but I found another site that had em for $15 |
| 01:05.49 | numist | no? |
| 01:05.50 | numist | weird |
| 01:05.54 | nullpuppy | hahahahahahaha |
| 01:05.56 | nullpuppy | http://www.bash.org/?516497 |
| 01:06.01 | scanlime | maybe $30... but that was a full enclosure |
| 01:06.06 | numist | d'oh |
| 01:06.23 | numist | nullpuppy: his grammar is terrible |
| 01:06.40 | nullpuppy | yeah |
| 01:06.45 | numist | HOW can this possibly be this expensive? : http://shop4.outpost.com/product/4331425?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG |
| 01:07.04 | scanlime | haha |
| 01:07.17 | numist | woot, newegg has it |
| 01:08.06 | numist | and it has a laptop converter, which is incredibly useful, since I need one for my minipc |
| 01:08.52 | numist | so, scanlime, how are you planning on doing hotswapping within the enclosure? gank the drive from its connections, unplug at hub, ? |
| 01:09.53 | numist | hey, I can plug in cdrom/burners in there too... oooh |
| 01:10.56 | ChipX86 | ok, heading back home. |
| 01:11.02 | ChipX86 | or.. hmm, Frys sounds good too |
| 01:11.10 | numist | :D |
| 01:12.06 | scanlime | numist: I have some removable IDE bay thingies left over from navi- going to wire those up so that when you unlock a drive, it powers off the usb-ide adaptor |
| 01:12.16 | numist | ah hah, brilliant |
| 01:12.27 | scanlime | yeah, those worked great with my DVD burner |
| 01:12.51 | numist | woo |
| 01:13.00 | numist | I have a dvd burner that I havent used, but I bought months ago :o |
| 01:13.06 | scanlime | aw |
| 01:13.12 | scanlime | my dvd burner is great for backups |
| 01:13.14 | numist | dont have space in a machine to put it in |
| 01:13.22 | numist | plus, two of my machines let out their magic smoke |
| 01:13.26 | scanlime | and for burning Linux and FreeDSB CDs |
| 01:13.30 | numist | yay |
| 01:14.07 | purple_cow | FreeDSB? |
| 01:14.36 | numist | joke :) |
| 01:15.35 | numist | forty six dollars for a removable ide bay thingy!?!?! |
| 01:16.10 | numist | Ill just make something that mounts them all in a plexi enclosure |

| 01:26.14 | purple_cow | hiya scanlime |
| 01:28.21 | scanlime | "Some switchmode power supply inductors will make a hissing or white noise sound, typically when the circuit is lightly loaded and running in a "pulse skip" or PFM mode. I have heard it on many DC/DC circuits. You could try removing the coil and pouring in some epoxy." |
| 01:28.23 | scanlime | hmm |
| 01:28.56 | scanlime | it certainly qualifies as lightly loaded when it's off and there's no load on the standby supply... |
| 01:29.09 | scanlime | the regulation also really sucks when it's loaded this light |
| 01:29.12 | purple_cow | that sounds pretty light... |

| 03:38.46 | nullpuppy | freaky |
| 03:39.03 | ChipX86 | I don't think they caught the guy, because by the time I finally left Frys, I still saw police everywhere, things taped off, and police knocking on doors |
| 03:39.08 | ChipX86 | it'll be on the news |

| 03:47.27 | ChipX86 | one tried to teach me how to use a mouse once |
| 03:47.34 | kergoth | i knew i shouldve just explained that the modem was handing out a private address on the 192.168.100.0/24 subnet instead of live |
| 03:47.39 | nullpuppy | hahhaaha |
| 03:47.47 | ChipX86 | got real pissed when I said I'd been programming computers for several years and I just want info on the drivers. He said, "If you know so much, you fix the problem!" |

| 03:49.44 | kergoth | it was a 2 minute fix that turned into 20 while the idiot support person had my dad rebooting and shit |
| 03:49.50 | nullpuppy | kergoth: no, thats asking them too much |
| 03:49.56 | nullpuppy | they're trained to read a script |

| 03:50.11 | nullpuppy | k |
| 03:50.13 | kergoth | yeah, thats about right too. a friend of mine works tech support at time warner cable |

| 03:58.26 | ChipX86 | cute |
| 03:58.53 | scanlime | hehe, yep |
| 03:59.12 | scanlime | IIRC the whole NTSC-on-a-PIC fad started when someone implemented a thermometer with a TV output |
| 03:59.29 | scanlime | I was writing a breakout clone for the PIC with video output for a while |
| 03:59.34 | ChipX86 | hah |
| 04:01.32 | kergoth | ChipX86: fishing 105, and using that pole that adds +25 |
| 04:01.48 | nullpuppy | hrm |
| 04:03.45 | scanlime | ChipX86: hmm.. that guy uses 3-clock-cycle 'pixels' |
| 04:04.14 | scanlime | ChipX86: one trick I saw a while ago was to use one of the 8-bit-wide I/O ports as a shift register, so that you can output a new pixel from that register using a single clock cycle |
| 04:04.27 | scanlime | that gets you either a character grid or a repeating 8-pixel pattern at full clock cycle resolution |
| 04:04.37 | scanlime | nice and high-res ;) |
| 04:05.11 | scanlime | this is almost as high res as the time I tried to coerce a 68EZ328 (the Palm III's processor) into generating a VGA signal from its LCD controller, generating hsync/vsync partially in software |
| 04:05.22 | scanlime | I think the resolution on that was something like 128x480 |

| 05:04.50 | merlin262 | Sophie[bed], seriously tho, most of that page I did in HS chemistry |
| 05:05.27 | merlin262 | though, I don't really recall any of it |
| 05:05.39 | Sophie[bed] | well, the education system fails me once again. |
| 05:06.42 | merlin262 | Sophie[bed], IIRC, the 'shell' system vs the orbitals is analagous to Newtonian vs. Relativistic physics... |

| 06:16.47 | nullpuppy | I also want to pick up an xgamestation |
| 06:16.54 | scanlime | ChipX86: fry's prolly has better ones |

| 06:17.37 | scanlime | yeah |

| 06:17.39 | scanlime | those are fun |

| 06:18.02 | ChipX86 | I think though that if I have a set of instruction manuals and go through them, it'll help re-learn a lot of this |

| 06:18.11 | Samy | ChipX86: Even an FPGA laying around here. |
| 06:18.17 | ChipX86 | mainly because it 'll give me parts and things to do with them, and I can just play around |

| 06:22.09 | ChipX86 | http://www.maplin.co.uk/images/Full/32340i0.jpg\ |
| 06:28.36 | ChipX86 | er |
| 06:28.36 | ChipX86 | http://www.maplin.co.uk/images/Full/32340i0.jpg |
| 06:28.36 | ChipX86 | I remember that :) |
| 06:28.36 | scanlime | it would have the same no-parts-no-manual problem, but I have a Heathkit board if you want.. has variable power supplies, a function generator, a breadboard, and some other odds and ends |
| 06:28.36 | ChipX86 | thanks, I have two of those though |
| 06:28.36 | ChipX86 | yeah... |
| 06:28.36 | scanlime | ah |
| 06:28.36 | ChipX86 | my grandpa has a heathkit computer he assembled. Man.. that would have been fun |
| 06:28.36 | scanlime | haha, yeah.. my dad built one of those |
| 06:28.36 | ChipX86 | http://www.maplin.co.uk/images/Full/-41i0.jpg |
| 06:28.36 | ChipX86 | the one in the top-right is the thing that originally got me into electronics in the first place |
| 06:28.37 | ChipX86 | I was 7 or 8 and my grandpa sat down with me and taught me how to follow the instructions and the schematics... |
| 06:28.37 | scanlime | ooh |
| 06:28.37 | scanlime | I had the top-left one |
| 06:28.37 | scanlime | the robot with LED eyes |
| 06:28.37 | scanlime | so cute |
| 06:28.37 | ChipX86 | :) |
| 06:28.37 | numist | scanlime: can you take a look at your usb <--> ide cable... is it possible/probably to homemake one? |
| 06:28.37 | numist | or 8 |
| 06:28.38 | scanlime | sure, but I'm not sure it'd be worth it after you have to fab the PCBs yourself and buy the chips in low quantity |
| 06:28.38 | numist | yeah, I figured it wasnt just some fancy wiring foo.. |
| 06:28.38 | numist | yay for chips |
| 06:28.38 | scanlime | heh |
| 06:28.38 | scanlime | no, you do actually have to convert protocols |
| 06:28.38 | numist | boo for 8x$15 |
| 06:28.38 | numist | yeah, I was thinking silly |
| 06:28.38 | scanlime | it's down to just one chip and some Rs and Cs these days, but it's still a lot of logic |
| 06:28.40 | ChipX86 | http://www.physlink.com/estore/cart/500ElectronicsProjectLab.cfm?SID=37 |

| 06:35.17 | ChipX86 | wow, look at all the stuff that kit teaches |
| 06:35.40 | scanlime | wow |
| 06:35.53 | scanlime | that's got to be two years of university EE classes for sure |
| 06:36.05 | ChipX86 | when I have a kid, I'm buying him something like that. |
| 06:36.26 | scanlime | I lusted over stuff like that in the back of Electronics Now |
| 06:36.41 | scanlime | wonder what kind of CPU that has... |
| 06:36.53 | ChipX86 | if it was less than $100, *maybe* |
| 06:36.58 | scanlime | prolly 8051... |
| 06:37.30 | scanlime | that looks so cool |
| 06:37.33 | ChipX86 | yea |
| 06:37.52 | ChipX86 | I want a closer pic |
| 06:39.45 | scanlime | looks like that ebay page, including the image, is just verbatim from ramsey's page |
| 06:39.52 | scanlime | and the price is the same |
| 06:39.52 | scanlime | heh |
| 06:39.55 | ChipX86 | yeah :/ |
| 06:40.19 | scanlime | hehe! |
| 06:40.23 | scanlime | http://www.ramseyelectronics.com/cgi-bin/commerce.exe?preadd=action&key=PG13 |
| 06:40.46 | ChipX86 | nice |
| 06:40.57 | ChipX86 | http://musepat.club.fr/sfcomp_1.jpg |
| 06:41.08 | ChipX86 | I have this, but it's missing half the wires and is in poor shape.. but was very cool back when I got it |
| 06:41.38 | scanlime | huh.. what all's on it? |
| 06:41.56 | ChipX86 | you put it together and it's a little programmable computer, and they give you a bunch of different assembly programs to learn |
| 06:42.13 | ChipX86 | so you have little games you can make, you can make it play music, etc |
| 06:42.25 | scanlime | what kind of CPU? |
| 06:42.29 | ChipX86 | no idea |
| 06:42.38 | ChipX86 | it's some tiny crappy little thing |
| 06:42.55 | ChipX86 | http://musepat.club.fr/sfcomp_2.jpg |
| 06:43.01 | scanlime | yeah, but it'd have to be something fairly self-contained but that you can still wire up to program with switches |
| 06:43.14 | ChipX86 | notice the little 2-column thing on the left. Those are all the opcodes |
| 06:43.16 | ChipX86 | yeah |
| 06:43.34 | scanlime | cute |
| 06:43.56 | scanlime | could be something archaic a la 4004 or so.. or it could be a more recent microcontroller programmed to act like something simplified :) |
| 06:44.04 | ChipX86 | I used to want to take it all off the box and put it in a self-contained little box with a keypad |
| 06:45.16 | numist | scanlime: is there a decent doc or informational for the fs you were talking about for raid? I have questions and such |
| 06:45.22 | scanlime | unionfs? |
| 06:45.24 | scanlime | it has a web site |
| 06:45.54 | ChipX86 | http://www.electronic-kits-and-projects.com/kit-files/epl/epl500parts.gif |
| 06:46.03 | scanlime | ohhh |
| 06:46.08 | scanlime | I had that one -> http://store.platinumgalleria.com/mx907.html |
| 06:46.22 | ChipX86 | yeah, taht was my favorite one :) |
| 06:46.24 | numist | scanlime: does it handle missing drives/adding drives decently/at all? |
| 06:46.28 | ChipX86 | so tempted to get it. I learned a lot on that one |
| 06:46.47 | scanlime | numist: RTFM |
| 06:46.52 | numist | workin on it |
| 06:47.09 | scanlime | numist: it has a userspace tool, which probably causes far fewer kernel OOPSes than it did when I last used it :P |
| 06:47.49 | ChipX86 | ok bbl |
| 06:50.22 | numist | seems pretty straightforward to me... |
| 06:51.04 | numist | and, if Im not mistaken, the fstype of the volumes doesnt really matter, as they should be mounted when the unionfs mount is invoked |
| 06:51.38 | scanlime | unionfs works at the VFS level, it doesn't care what type of filesystem you use underneat |
| 06:51.39 | scanlime | +h |
| 06:51.50 | numist | yes, quite excellent |
| 06:52.03 | numist | just gotta compile it into my kernel :) |
| 06:52.14 | numist | very neat though |
| 06:57.07 | scanlime | most of CIA restored... |

| 16:56.41 | nullpuppy | poor ubuntu vm |
| 16:56.47 | nullpuppy | i think that was caused by firefox :/ |
| 17:00.23 | nullpuppy | ah, i love this extension... restored all my tabs :) |
| 17:00.50 | ChipX86 | I still can't use firefox when galeon's an option. Galeon just does everything I need |
| 17:01.28 | nullpuppy | well.. this was on my work laptop which is running windows :) |
| 17:01.38 | nullpuppy | god dammit |
| 17:01.39 | scanlime | mostly switched to firefox because galeon was getting crashy and firefox's bookmark system got cool |
| 17:01.42 | ChipX86 | yeah |
| 17:01.47 | ChipX86 | galeon had a major period of suckiness |
| 17:01.55 | ChipX86 | but generally it's fairly nice now |
| 17:02.12 | ChipX86 | the bookmarks and toolbar interface need a little bit of work, but I like having multiple search bars there, have it auto-restore tabs.. doesn't really crash anymore |
| 17:02.24 | ChipX86 | and the best thing is, if there are problems, I can yell at Philip! |
| 17:02.41 | scanlime | hehe |
| 17:02.58 | nullpuppy | thats it.. /me reboots |
| 17:03.12 | nullpuppy | bout time really.. i never really shut the thing down... :) |
| 17:03.25 | nullpuppy | should probably think about a defrag later too |
| 17:03.28 | file[laptop] | what are all these fibers over my shirt... bah |
| 17:03.44 | nullpuppy | file[laptop]: dead people fibers? |
| 17:04.17 | file[laptop] | nullpuppy: possibly |
| 17:06.22 | scanlime | http://zero.navi.cx/gallery/navi-usb <-- made some progress on this last night :) |
| 17:07.51 | nullpuppy | neat |
| 17:08.06 | nullpuppy | thats almost frightening |
| 17:08.15 | nullpuppy | soo much traffic going through usb :) |
| 17:08.49 | scanlime | I dedided to keep the power supply external do the disk enclosure, partly because there's no good place to mount it but also because it gives me more options |
| 17:09.12 | scanlime | I can use a little 2 amp supply to test a couple disks with it, or I can have a micro-ATX supply running that enclosure plus another one and an NSLU2 |
| 17:09.30 | nullpuppy | cool |
| 17:09.37 | numist | I made a carriage for my ideusb project last night :D |
| 17:09.37 | scanlime | that 120mm fan is really quiet |
| 17:09.41 | numist | its not plexy though :/ |
| 17:09.42 | scanlime | the disks will be louder than the fan |
| 17:09.47 | scanlime | numist: nice. what's it made of? |
| 17:09.54 | numist | aluminum :D |
| 17:09.59 | scanlime | :) |
| 17:10.07 | numist | not nearly as fancy as you though, the drives screw into the carriage, no hot swapping for me |
| 17:10.14 | scanlime | I don't have enough scrap metal around here... |
| 17:10.24 | scanlime | unless you count old computer cases from yoshi and navi |
| 17:10.27 | numist | hehe |
| 17:10.45 | numist | yeah, me neither, I used the last of my L-braces on this little carriage... youd think Id have more than 16 too :/ |
| 17:11.06 | scanlime | :( |
| 17:11.14 | numist | hee hee, we have the same lamp, but I mounted mine to the side of the desk to save space :P |

| 17:13.34 | nullpuppy | ChipX86: do you have his cell number? you could always.. call him :) |
| 17:13.39 | numist | scanlime oh scanlime, what _are_ you doing here... http://zero.navi.cx/gallery/navi-usb/p1010011 |
| 17:13.53 | ChipX86 | nullpuppy: nah, doesn't matter really |
| 17:14.01 | ChipX86 | I'm going to grab some breakfast before I head out |
| 17:14.11 | nullpuppy | *shrugs* ok then :) |
| 17:14.26 | ChipX86 | given that he's in Sunnyvale, I don't imagine I'd be saving either of us much time |
| 17:14.35 | nullpuppy | hehe |
| 17:14.52 | numist | hehe |
| 17:15.08 | ChipX86 | so apple's apparently pretty pissed at us |
| 17:15.13 | numist | why? |
| 17:15.16 | numist | you guys didnt do it |
| 17:15.24 | ChipX86 | because everybody is using vmware to run the hacked OS X |
| 17:15.26 | numist | (you were trying... but you guys didnt do it) |
| 17:15.30 | ChipX86 | we didn't try |
| 17:15.36 | scanlime | ChipX86: hmm, ok. when and where? |
| 17:15.36 | numist | so? most of those instances of vmware are probably pirated too |
| 17:15.49 | numist | tell them you're pissed too, piracy of vmware is up ;) |
| 17:15.50 | scanlime | numist: uhm? |
| 17:15.59 | numist | eep brb |
| 17:16.11 | scanlime | that's just a USB adaptor without its case on |
| 17:16.12 | ChipX86 | scanlime: only if it's not a problem. In the parking lot area outside my building. Inbetween the two apartment buildings |
| 17:16.25 | ChipX86 | numist: we can't really blame apple for vmware piracy ;) |
| 17:16.38 | numist | scanlime: figured... heh |
| 17:16.50 | nullpuppy | yeah.. but apple can't blame you that there stuff works in vmware either... |
| 17:16.52 | scanlime | ChipX86: got an address to refresh my memory with |
| 17:16.53 | scanlime | ? |
| 17:16.59 | ChipX86 | 3351 Alma St |
| 17:17.02 | scanlime | k |
| 17:17.14 | scanlime | want me to call you when I get there? |
| 17:17.15 | nullpuppy | s/there/their/ |
| 17:17.18 | numist | eep, chippy's giving his address out on public channels |
| 17:17.18 | ChipX86 | I think we're having Indian today :D |
| 17:17.20 | ChipX86 | scanlime: sure |
| 17:17.31 | ChipX86 | numist: oh no! Now everybody will know my address, and not just the people who whois my domains! |
| 17:17.34 | scanlime | number? |
| 17:17.34 | nullpuppy | numist: hehe, just what i was thinking... :) |
| 17:17.38 | nullpuppy | hehe |

| 17:17.43 | ChipX86 | oh no again! |
| 17:17.46 | numist | oh noes! |
| 17:17.49 | nullpuppy | eep! |
| 17:18.22 | ChipX86 | now I'll be the victim of identity theft, and people will trick me into going to take a plane to see them and nobody will ever hear frmo me again, just like TV says :( |
| 17:18.28 | nullpuppy | hmm, ya know.. i want to find some old episodes of Fraggle Rock |
| 17:18.56 | nullpuppy | and then you'll be carried off by smurfs |
| 17:19.30 | scanlime | ChipX86: tonight might also be a good time for sushi possibly... I know I'll be there kinda lateish, since I'm getting in later than I usually do |
| 17:19.45 | scanlime | it was kind of planned though, since I don't have much to do until I get some review feedback :) |
| 17:20.05 | nullpuppy | pfft, feedback if for chumps :) |
| 17:21.23 | ChipX86 | mmm sushi sounds good |

| 18:31.07 | nullpuppy | I wonder if that would explain my performance problems.. :) |
| 18:31.08 | numist | ChipX86: whose submission is that? |
| 18:31.14 | ChipX86 | we don't know where it came from! It's anonymous! Very anomymous! Just weird! |
| 18:31.19 | ChipX86 | oh well |
| 18:31.22 | ChipX86 | neat that people found out that! |
| 18:31.23 | nullpuppy | hahah |
| 18:33.22 | nullpuppy | huh, interesting.. this site is suggesting Arm and Hammer Super Washing Soda and hydrogen peroxide for cleaning |
| 18:38.04 | kergoth | hmm |
| 18:38.24 | kergoth | i need to take a 2 page text file and cram it onto one page, and also reduce the left & right margins for the print so i can get the fucker on one page |
| 18:38.30 | kergoth | in gnome |
| 18:38.36 | kergoth | anyone know how to do that? |
| 18:39.11 | nullpuppy | I think theres something that will let you do that.. I don't remember what offhand though :( |
| 18:39.22 | nullpuppy | we use a program called fineprint at work.. but I think thats windows only.. |
| 18:39.35 | nullpuppy | speaking of work.. i should head there now.. |
| 18:40.46 | kergoth | heh |
| 18:43.36 | numist | ChipX86: when Im in town would it be possible for me to buy vmware from you, and perhaps take a look at FreeDSB? |
| 19:11.04 | ChipX86 | numist: I can't show you FreeDSB. Maybe the VMware thing, though |
| 19:11.20 | ChipX86 | IBM's charging me $700 to fix the laptop |
| 19:11.30 | pagefault | what? |
| 19:11.33 | pagefault | not under warranty? |
| 19:11.37 | ChipX86 | it is, but they don't cover spills |
| 19:11.43 | ChipX86 | and so they're charging me $700 to replace everything |
| 19:11.48 | pagefault | :/ |
| 19:13.15 | ChipX86 | considering how little I paid out of pocket for it in the first place, I guess I can't complain much, but still..... |
| 19:13.29 | pagefault | yeah it still sucks though |
| 19:13.32 | ChipX86 | very. |
| 19:13.41 | ChipX86 | last week was crappy and expensive. |
| 19:13.48 | pagefault | that sucks |
| 19:14.01 | ChipX86 | this and the money taken out of my paycheck because of a new vmware policy that they didn't tell anyone and used me as an example for |
| 19:14.09 | pagefault | :( |
| 19:14.37 | pagefault | that sucks |
| 19:15.06 | Veight | dam |
| 19:15.30 | numist | sorry ChipX86... Ill bother you some other day then :) |
| 19:15.46 | numist | ChipX86: what model was your lappy again? I have a spare kb for a T30, if you want |
| 19:15.49 | numist | free :) |
| 19:15.55 | pagefault | freedsb? |
| 19:15.57 | ChipX86 | T42P |
| 19:15.57 | pagefault | you mean freebsd? |
| 19:16.05 | numist | pagefault: um, yes |
| 19:16.06 | ChipX86 | they said there's liquid on the motherboard |
| 19:16.09 | *** join/#tacobeam kergoth (n=kergoth@mail.astrocorp.com) |
| 19:16.13 | numist | ChipX86: boo :( |
| 19:16.25 | numist | well, if the keyboard fits, thats one less thing to replace, I think kb's are $70 |
| 19:16.35 | ChipX86 | no, it doesn't help any |
| 19:16.40 | pagefault | if I were to design a lappy I would put a plastic layer between the keyboard and the insides |
| 19:16.41 | numist | ok, sorry then |
| 19:16.43 | pagefault | so it would be spill proof |
| 19:16.48 | numist | pagefault: toughbook ;) |
| 19:16.49 | ChipX86 | they're either going to bill me and replace eveyrthing, or send it back without anythign fixed |
| 19:16.54 | ChipX86 | I don't get to mix and match |
| 19:17.08 | numist | boo |
| 19:17.14 | pagefault | :( |
| 19:17.20 | pagefault | i'd want to keep the old on in that case |
| 19:17.33 | pagefault | you could salvage some stuff |
| 19:17.47 | ChipX86 | this was a $4000 laptop |
| 19:17.56 | ChipX86 | I'm not going to salvage thigns and get a new one |
| 19:17.57 | numist | if the motherboard is dead, theres a lot less to salvage :P |
| 19:18.02 | ChipX86 | it's not dead |
| 19:18.09 | numist | ? |
| 19:18.11 | ChipX86 | they already billed me and are fixing it, so it doesn't matter |
| 19:18.19 | numist | ah well |
| 19:18.22 | numist | sucks though |
| 19:18.26 | ChipX86 | yeah. |
| 19:18.27 | pagefault | that sucks |
| 19:18.30 | numist | there goes all that money you save from not having a car :( |
| 19:18.31 | ChipX86 | totally ruined my mood |
| 19:18.34 | ChipX86 | I was in such a good mood |
| 19:18.41 | pagefault | you should go see jamie or something, that will cheer you up |
| 19:18.53 | ChipX86 | pagefault: oh sure, because that's completely doable, her being 5 hours away |
| 19:18.57 | pagefault | :( |
| 19:19.13 | pagefault | I didn't know |
| 19:19.27 | ChipX86 | pagefault: she lives in the town I moved from |
| 19:19.37 | pagefault | sorry |
| 19:19.39 | ChipX86 | so I do see her whenever possible |
| 19:19.43 | ChipX86 | but it's hard to find time |
| 19:19.49 | ChipX86 | it's ok, no reason to be sorry |
| 19:19.50 | numist | whats she doing nowadays? |
| 19:19.52 | pagefault | sorry |
| 19:19.54 | ChipX86 | school and working |
| 19:19.57 | pagefault | yeah well I don't want to get you in a worse mood thats all |
| 19:20.01 | ChipX86 | no you're not |
| 19:20.07 | ChipX86 | that's just the reality of our relationship right now |
| 19:20.16 | ChipX86 | I'm okay, just pissed that IBM's charging me that much |
| 19:20.24 | ChipX86 | if it was $200 or $300, sure, but $700? |
| 19:20.56 | scanlime | ChipX86: at least she's 5 hours away, not 20... |
| 19:21.13 | ChipX86 | scanlime: yeah |
| 19:21.43 | ChipX86 | on the plus side, I should have my laptop by tomorrow or Friday |
| 19:21.51 | ChipX86 | I'm going to keep it in a big plastic bag. |
| 19:22.03 | Veight | heh |
| 19:22.15 | ChipX86 | actually, I'm reserving part of my desk for drinks and food. The other side will be for computer equipment |
| 19:22.19 | ChipX86 | shoudl remove the problem |
| 19:24.31 | Veight | my desk is a complete mess of computer equipment and food and drinks heh |
| 19:24.43 | numist | ChipX86: Ive got a little bedstand for food, everything falls onto the floor :) |
| 19:24.50 | ChipX86 | heh |
| 19:24.59 | ChipX86 | the food/drinks vs. laptop thing isn't an issue at home, just at work |
| 19:25.02 | numist | also means all I have to do to have a dining area is swivel :D |
| 19:25.06 | numist | ahh |
| 19:25.14 | numist | you did it at work... that doubly sucks |
| 19:26.17 | Veight | hey cant you get paid for doing it? since you have to pay $700 and that hurt you and you did it at work. |
| 19:26.32 | ChipX86 | no |
| 19:26.37 | ChipX86 | that's not how things work |
| 19:26.38 | scanlime | heh |
| 19:26.54 | Veight | it should be :) |
| 19:27.00 | ChipX86 | no, it really shouldn't |
| 19:27.03 | ChipX86 | too much room for abuse |
| 19:27.05 | scanlime | Veight: you don't get paid here, vmware is a crappy place to work, stay away and leave us be! |
| 19:27.08 | ChipX86 | this was my mistake, although an accident |
| 19:27.25 | ChipX86 | it wouldn't be right for vmware to pay to get my personal laptop fixed |
| 19:28.00 | Veight | true. |
| 19:28.29 | ChipX86 | yay for another X bug closed |
| 19:29.29 | scanlime | yay |
| 19:30.39 | Veight | meow |
| 19:31.19 | ChipX86 | wonder what's for dessert |
| 19:31.36 | ChipX86 | Gulab Jamun |
| 19:31.42 | ChipX86 | oh crap |
| 19:31.46 | ChipX86 | we have a meeting |
| 19:31.53 | scanlime | yeah |
| 19:31.54 | ChipX86 | oh, at 2 |
| 19:31.56 | ChipX86 | phew |
| 19:32.01 | scanlime | yeah :) |
| 19:32.12 | ChipX86 | ooh, same time dessert's being served, and it's in the cafeteria. Awesome. |
| 19:32.15 | scanlime | all of my meetings ended up at 2 somehow... |
| 19:32.23 | ChipX86 | you have more than one 2:00 meeting? |
| 19:33.14 | scanlime | I also have biweekly meetings with Dan 2:00 monday |
| 19:33.34 | scanlime | and MKS staff meetings are 2:00 |
| 19:34.17 | scanlime | none of these occur very often... |
| 19:34.30 | scanlime | it's really refreshing actually |
| 19:34.46 | ChipX86 | I only have the Hosted Solutions meeting and a once-a-month one-on-one meeting with Jocelyn |
| 19:34.58 | scanlime | at space grant we'd have basically an all-hands meeting plus an all-hands-that-actually-know-what-their-doing meeting every week |
| 19:35.05 | ChipX86 | :/ |
| 19:35.12 | scanlime | and this past summer it was 9:00 AM monday |
| 19:35.19 | scanlime | I managed to go to.. one of those. all summer |
| 19:35.27 | ChipX86 | hah |
| 19:35.33 | scanlime | not like they were going to fire me |
| 19:35.38 | ChipX86 | yeah |
| 19:36.04 | scanlime | space grant doesn't exactly know how to keep their engineers happy.. or at least James doesn't. |
| 19:36.12 | ChipX86 | that's a shame |
| 19:36.19 | ChipX86 | it doesn't take much to make for a happy environment |
| 19:36.24 | scanlime | no equipment, lots of pointless meetings, hardware that never works, software that never gets used |
| 19:36.47 | scanlime | I usually ended up using more stuff I brought in personally than stuff spacegrant paid for |

| 19:45.35 | ChipX86 | ugh, great. The gnomecanvas gtkmm bindings don't virtually inherit from Item. There goes my hack |

| 19:48.39 | ChipX86 | yep |
| 19:48.54 | ChipX86 | Regis just has one. I don't get it. |
| 19:48.59 | ChipX86 | and three computers |

| 19:49.37 | ChipX86 | screw you too, GnomeCanvas! |
| 19:50.04 | scanlime | huh |
| 19:50.06 | scanlime | a virus |
| 19:50.15 | scanlime | been a long time since I've seen one of those... |
| 19:50.36 | numist | hehe |
| 19:51.08 | ChipX86 | must.. write.. new.. canvas.. |
| 19:51.38 | scanlime | here, you can use these to draw text! |
| 19:51.41 | scanlime | the fonts will be so pretty.... |
| 19:51.56 | ChipX86 | gnomecanvas would be useful if it didn't suck so much |
| 19:52.06 | ChipX86 | little things like, "I want to resize you." are not easy |

| 19:55.57 | scanlime | all you really need to make a canvas is mmap(), right? |
| 19:56.01 | ChipX86 | heh |
| 19:56.16 | ChipX86 | it's just so ridiculous how limiting gnomecanvas truly is |
| 19:58.51 | file[laptop] | kergoth: mildly amusing |
| 19:59.36 | Cae | gonkulator is asexual. ChipX86 is heterosexual. I am heterosexual. file[laptop] is.. . lurgy sleeps with llamas though. |
| 20:00.02 | ChipX86 | that was unexpected |
| 20:00.10 | Cae | well. are priests asexual or what? |
| 20:00.24 | Cae | what's the both-sexes one? I mean in one body. |
| 20:00.25 | ChipX86 | for a while |
| 20:00.53 | ChipX86 | androgynous? |
| 20:00.57 | Cae | maybe |
| 20:01.13 | ChipX86 | but that's if you're physically both sexes |
| 20:01.23 | ChipX86 | transexual is maybe what you're thinking |
| 20:01.31 | Cae | priests are transsexuals? |
| 20:01.34 | ChipX86 | no |
| 20:01.43 | Cae | are you sure? |
| 20:01.53 | ChipX86 | priests don't claim to be both male and female |
| 20:01.58 | file[laptop] | what am I now? YOU SILLY DINGO |
| 20:02.12 | Cae | file[laptop] has sex with dingos then. |
| 20:02.16 | ChipX86 | they claim that god doesn't want them to have sex, so much so that many eventually go crazy and have sex with kids. |
| 20:02.25 | Cae | hm. |
| 20:02.25 | ChipX86 | not sure what the word is for that. |
| 20:02.31 | Cae | pedophile |

| 23:29.41 | pagefault | that was fun |
| 23:29.49 | pagefault | saw an old buddy from high school |
| 23:29.56 | kergoth | nifty |
| 23:34.53 | ChipX86 | people in #gnome-women were talkign behind our backs in French |

| 23:35.33 | kergoth | hehe |
| 23:35.39 | ChipX86 | 16:33:30 <@ ChipX86> I'm not a bot, and you're targetting me why? |
| 23:35.39 | ChipX86 | 16:34:05 <@ ChipX86> Oh et au fait, je parle un parfait francais... |
| 23:36.02 | scanlime | :) |
| 23:41.34 | pagefault | gas prices are rediculous |
| 23:41.40 | pagefault | $3.18 CAD per gallon here |
| 23:42.01 | kergoth | spent $33 USD the other day to go from 1/4 tank to full |
| 23:42.03 | kergoth | :( |
| 23:42.15 | scanlime | and you aren't in CA :P |

| 23:45.07 | pagefault | apple is so slow |
| 23:45.12 | pagefault | they just notice now that osx is running on non macs |
| 23:45.16 | ChipX86 | no |
| 23:45.19 | ChipX86 | they've known |
| 23:45.24 | ChipX86 | believe me |
| 23:45.38 | pagefault | well not they are taking legal action |
| 23:45.43 | pagefault | err now |
| 23:46.04 | pagefault | it won't do much good though |
| 23:50.34 | scanlime | I'm curious what exactly they're suing for.. I assume that site only had instructions, not actual binaries |
| 23:50.42 | ChipX86 | yep |
| 23:51.12 | scanlime | sure they're annoyed, but I hate it when companies just toss lawyers at a problem without really finding a legitimate solution |
| 23:52.14 | pagefault | well it's not like they didn't expect people to do it |
| 23:52.21 | pagefault | and it's only just starting |
| 23:52.35 | scanlime | x86 is just a fad |
| 23:52.59 | scanlime | hrmph |
| 23:53.07 | pagefault | they said that 10 years ago |
| 23:53.27 | scanlime | why does the NT kernel debugger have a command for printing std::map contents? :P |
| 23:53.41 | ChipX86 | hah |
| 23:54.04 | ChipX86 | ugh |
| 23:54.13 | ChipX86 | they want me to bump up the minimum disk requirements for 64-bit Vista to 16GB |
| 23:54.20 | scanlime | yay... |
| 23:54.28 | pagefault | disk space I hope |
| 23:54.29 | pagefault | :) |
| 23:55.03 | pagefault | I wonder why though, it runs fine in a VM with 256mb |
| 23:55.13 | ChipX86 | ? |
| 23:55.21 | ChipX86 | you run 64-bit Windows Vista in a VM? I doubt it |
| 23:55.27 | pagefault | oh 64-bit |
| 23:55.31 | ChipX86 | and disk space, not memory |
| 23:55.33 | pagefault | why would the 64-bit make any difference |
| 23:55.44 | ChipX86 | 32-bit compatibility stuff maybe? I dunno |
| 23:55.51 | scanlime | pagefault: bits take up a lot of space! |
| 23:56.13 | ChipX86 | we're still behind the GameCube in bits. I want 128-bit Linux! |
| 23:56.28 | scanlime | 128-bit? |
| 23:56.35 | pagefault | 64-bit linux certainly doesn't need that, oh well |
| 23:56.39 | ChipX86 | didn't they originally claim GameCube was going to be 128-bit? |
| 23:56.40 | pagefault | but this is of course MS |
| 23:56.48 | ChipX86 | I seem to remember a lot of laughter about that |
| 23:56.56 | scanlime | I don't think they ever tried to advertise the gamecube as anything other than 32-bit.. now N64 linux would be fun |
| 23:56.57 | ChipX86 | pagefault: sure it does |
| 23:57.18 | scanlime | I mean, the 64-bit linux kernel by itself must be 8GB... |
| 23:57.21 | pagefault | ChipX86, linux? |
| 23:57.28 | scanlime | gotta take advantage of that extra address space |
| 23:57.41 | scanlime | it's just not impressive unless your 64-bit kernel is bigger than your entire 32-bit address space |
| 23:57.44 | ChipX86 | pagefault: they need compatibility libs for 32-bit |
| 23:57.58 | pagefault | ChipX86, yeah but it you don't need 16gb |
| 23:58.42 | ChipX86 | The Nintendo GameCube (Japanese: \u30b2\u30fc\u30e0\u30ad\u30e5\u30fc\u30d6; originally code-named "Dolphin" during development; abbreviated as GCN) is Nintendo's fourth home video game console, belonging to the 128-bit era |
| 23:58.51 | pagefault | I mean I have a fully functional 64-bit linux VM |
| 23:58.54 | pagefault | in under 2gb |
| 23:59.00 | ChipX86 | ah |
| 23:59.07 | ChipX86 | they use a different definition |
| 23:59.20 | ChipX86 | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/128-bit_era#.22128-bit_era.22 |
| 23:59.36 | pagefault | they probably refer to it being a 128-bit video processor heh |
| 23:59.45 | pagefault | having a 128-bit memory path |
| 23:59.46 | scanlime | 128-bit color! |
| 23:59.55 | pagefault | which is pretty standard |
| 23:59.59 | ChipX86 | I do remember them advertising it as the first 128-bit console at first, before it came out |
