02:22.34 | Zelut | what does everyone suggest for cell phone providers? |
02:25.37 | linuxalien | Anyone but Cingular. They've ripped me off big time so I quit. |
02:26.08 | Zelut | I'm sick of Verizon myself.. what does that leave? T-Mobile, sprint.. |
02:29.10 | linuxalien | Hmm Qwest is ok but watch those "one time fees" They also tend to "accidentally" bill you for silly stuff. |

03:18.06 | Zelut | atoponce: ping |
03:19.45 | Zelut | lol. i think someone in my building is a WoW nerd. the essid? "Epic Mount" |
03:22.34 | atoponce | Zelut: pong |
03:22.51 | Zelut | atoponce: are you on a t-mobile plan? |
03:22.52 | sontek | :O |
03:22.58 | sontek | Cingular is the best =) |
03:22.59 | atoponce | Zelut: yessir |
03:23.06 | atoponce | sontek: you mean the net at&t |
03:23.09 | atoponce | s/et/ew/ |
03:23.23 | sontek | atoponce: yes =) |
03:23.25 | Zelut | atoponce: are you still wanting to switch? any suggestions on plans or phones? |
03:23.39 | sontek | Zelut: Cingular 8525 with their service |
03:24.04 | Zelut | I don't want to stay with Verizon. I don't want AT&T. I don't want Qworst. |
03:24.06 | atoponce | Zelut: i dunno. at times i hate it, but at other times, i don't |
03:24.15 | atoponce | atm, i am pleased with them |
03:24.20 | atoponce | but, i would like a new phone |
03:24.26 | sontek | Zelut: I just moved from verizon to cingular |
03:24.36 | Zelut | I like the idea of a treo, but not for $299 |
03:26.20 | sontek | Zelut: Its a badass windows mobile! |
03:26.21 | Zelut | sontek: you should know better than than around me dude :) |
03:26.32 | sontek | Zelut: have you have used palm? Its TERRIBLE |
03:26.47 | Zelut | I don't want viruses on my phone! |
03:27.05 | sontek | Zelut: stick with POS phones that do nothing if you are going to get a Palm |
03:27.25 | sontek | Even if you get a Treo I'd get the windows one |
03:27.49 | Zelut | yeck |
03:28.17 | sontek | You should find someone with a palm phone and try to use it |
03:29.30 | sontek | You need to learn to chose the best thing that does the job =) |
03:30.22 | sontek | or you could get a Trolltech |
03:30.24 | sontek | they run linux |
03:30.31 | sontek | I don't know anyone that has one though |
03:33.36 | sontek | But if you are going to put out over $100 for a phone, do some research, you don't want to end up with a piece of crap just because you are a linux biggot =) |
03:34.01 | sontek | I'm sure there are _some_ phones that are decent and run linux |
03:34.02 | Zelut | not sure I've been called a bigot for quite some time |
03:34.04 | sontek | but the best don't |
03:34.43 | sontek | I don't mean it to be insulting, but you sure aren't open minded about anything else :) |
03:37.39 | sontek | but i'll be right back =) |

04:13.25 | sontek | Zelut: so what do you think of fedora so far? |
04:15.04 | Zelut | sontek: I haven't been using it much actually.. it's only on my home test machine. |
04:15.13 | Zelut | I'll probably need to install it on my laptop before long. |
04:16.40 | Zelut | still looking for phones.. I give up. |
04:16.54 | Zelut | I don't need much more than a phone to call people with :) |
04:37.45 | atoponce | agreed |
04:42.16 | sontek | I use my phone as a mini harddrive, a internet access point when none are there, video player when traveling, mp3 player when at work, and once in awhile I talk on it :P |
04:42.33 | sontek | Talking is the last feature I looked for in a phone :P |
04:42.38 | sontek | I have more important needs |
04:46.12 | sontek | but the only reason I went with a phone with all the features is because I was sick of carrying my video ipod, phone, and palm everywhere :P |
05:07.52 | Zelut | anyone very familiar with west valley? |

14:18.02 | Zelut | on a more exciting note though, Feisty Beta should release today |
14:24.27 | sontek | morning! |
14:26.18 | maquis | *yawn* |
14:46.42 | atoponce | got my eff t-shirt in the mail |
14:46.44 | atoponce | w00t |
14:46.52 | redbeard1 | what does it look like? |
14:48.25 | atoponce | grey with 4 icons on the front: privacy (a lock), fair use (headphones), innovation (lightbulb) & free speech (megaphone) |
14:49.20 | atoponce | http://static.flickr.com/39/106772871_0829c7fd98.jpg |
14:50.43 | atoponce | the back has the eff logo (fairly large) with the text "eff.org member supported since 1990" |
15:03.47 | Zelut | atoponce: so is that your fair use ipod and OSX as well? :) |
15:04.01 | atoponce | ipod? |
15:04.09 | Zelut | in the picture |
15:04.21 | atoponce | ahh. that's not mine. found it online |
15:05.11 | Zelut | I'm guessing that is a stock photo someplace. thought it interesting that the 'fair use' shirt shows two non-free items. |
15:05.27 | atoponce | well, it could be a statement |
15:05.50 | atoponce | subconciously |

18:13.44 | atoponce | s/o/oo/ |
18:13.53 | atoponce | nice |
18:13.57 | atoponce | much better, i think |
18:50.30 | atoponce | i think nixternal deliberately chose those two blogs, because, they'll reach dead ends quickly & stay off the ubuntu planet |
18:50.44 | atoponce | which is unfortunate |
18:50.46 | atoponce | oh well |
19:08.06 | sontek | :O! |
19:52.14 | Zelut | atoponce: revoke your ping to nixternal and ping someone who wants to play! :) |
19:52.34 | tristanbob | perhaps others didn't want to play that game |
19:53.30 | tristanbob | it kinda sounded like a multi-level marketing scheme ;) |
19:53.49 | tristanbob | or a chain letter |
19:56.42 | sontek | atoponce: yeah, usually its more fun if blog tag involves a topic, the last one I was involved in we had to list 5 things that were unique(weird) about us |
19:56.52 | sontek | that was kind of fun because we got to learn things about our friends |
19:56.57 | sontek | rather than just posting to post |

20:44.20 | sontek | although I'd love to see everyones OPML to see what everyone likes, I'd also like to know why =) |
20:58.08 | synic | hey folks, what's a good blogging software? |
