| <pschulz01> Great, just uploading some photos for you.. | |
| <merlin-linux> nice :-) | |
| <pschulz01> I feel like there is a theme emerging in by photos.. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> WTF? These stupid subtitles don't even show up in full screen mode! | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Would it kill these people to do something right?!? | |
| <pschulz01> Davo_Dinkum: What are you looking at? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> And hello all. | |
| <pschulz01> Davo_Dinkum: Morning... | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> pschulz01: Howdy. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> pschulz01: Love Hina. | |
| <pschulz01> Davo_Dinkum: Wha? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> pschulz01: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_Hina | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Don't people in #ubuntu-au know how to use Wikipedia? :P | |
| <pschulz01> Davo_Dinkum: I thought you were passing a message onto me from someone named Hina | |
| * Hobbsee waves | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> pschulz01: How is that a message? It has terrible grammar. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Hobbsee: Where are you waving from? LCA? | |
| <Hobbsee> Davo_Dinkum: no, from home | |
| * pschulz01 waves from LCA | |
| <Hobbsee> hey again pschulz01 | |
| <pschulz01> Hi Hobbsee | |
| <merlin-linux> pschulz01: i can see then coming in slowly | |
| <merlin-linux> them | |
| <pschulz01> merlin-linux: My server at home is slowly processing them... | |
| <merlin-linux> pschulz01: yep | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> F****** autodialers. | |
| <pschulz01> merlin-linux: Not that many of them yet.. Im going to loose power first I think :-( | |
| <merlin-linux> pschulz01: and i harassing at the sametime for new pic | |
| <pschulz01> lose | |
| <merlin-linux> oh | |
| <merlin-linux> pschulz01: i not really harassing your server, but i am looking at other stuff there | |
| <pschulz01> merlin-linux: :-) | |
| <pschulz01> Are yo seeing corrupted thumbnails? | |
| <merlin-linux> yes | |
| <pschulz01> Oh well.. | |
| <pschulz01> Break time | |
| <merlin-linux> and it ends up being corrupted pic | |
| * Davo_Dinkum waits for ktorrent to automatically stop DLing in 5mins | |
| <merlin-linux> but they look like they still uploading tho | |
| <pschulz01> That was all of them for the time being.. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Why the hell does this video keep lagging? | |
| <merlin-linux> pschulz01: you want to hammer my gmail, and i can upload them from here? | |
| <merlin-linux> pschulz01: to your gallery | |
| <pschulz01> merlin-linux: No. the bottleneck is at this end.. | |
| <pschulz01> merlin-linux: I think.. | |
| <merlin-linux> pschulz01: k | |
| <pschulz01> merlin-linux: Thanks,,, | |

| <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Dammit natilus won't unmount my USB key. Any ideas? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> "umount: /media/usbdisk: device is busy | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> umount: /media/usbdisk: device is busy | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Error: umount failed | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> eject: unmount of `/media/usbdisk' failed | |
| <TheMuso> Hey all. | |
| <TheMuso> Happy LCA07!! | |
| <bimberi> hey TheMuso | |
| <ThePizzaKing> Davo_Dinkum: Try 'fuser -m /media/usbdisk' That will tell you the processes using it | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> And my lucky numbers are 24368 24369 24566 24567 | |
| <ThePizzaKing> If you use the -k argument too it will kill them so you can unmount it, but it can sometimes kill something important ie. GNOME | |
| <ThePizzaKing> Usually, I find, it's just naultilus, or a terminal window | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> I doubt it's a terminal window. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> What's sh? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> (it's a program of some sort) | |
| <ThePizzaKing> sh = bash in Dapper and dash in Edgy | |
| <ThePizzaKing> so some type of script running | |
| <Hobbsee> Davo_Dinkum: are you cd'd into hte /media/usbdisk, by any chance? | |
| <merlin-linux> pschulz01: the pics look better now | |
| <merlin-linux> pschulz01: they not corrupted | |
| <ThePizzaKing> Is there a reverse command of 'pidof' where I can give the pid and it will tell me the process name? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Hobbsee: Nope | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> ThePizzaKing: bash as in a terminal window, right? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Other proggies: esd, sh (yes, again) and esd (yes, again). | |
| <ThePizzaKing> esd? | |
| <ThePizzaKing> What's that doing there | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> No idea, I'm asking you. | |
| <ThePizzaKing> I thought that was a sound daemon | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> What is it? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> I think it is actually. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> I was playing a video in VLC before. | |
| <ThePizzaKing> Well, I don't think that killing the processes will do too much damage (I kill esd from time to time, it just starts itself again) | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Killing those programs did it. | |
| <DarkMageZ> Hey Hobbsee, with kopete. i've installed it on ubuntu (yes, gnome). but the autospell checking isn't working at all. i'm going to assume the dependencies aren't marked right. any idea on which packages i need? | |
| <Hobbsee> DarkMageZ: um....is autospell checking actually enabled? | |
| <Hobbsee> (right click in text box, auto spellcheck, make sure it's checked" | |
| <Hobbsee> ) | |
| <DarkMageZ> yeah, that's checked | |
| <DarkMageZ> and i decided to feed it complete jibberish just to test it. | |
| <Hobbsee> DarkMageZ: not sure exactly, must go to wokr now | |
| <Tatey> nubs | |
| <hysterio> im guessing the 162.222 addresses are people from LCA? | |
| <purserj> yup | |
| <cafuego> yah | |
| <hysterio> hi people from LCA | |
| <pschulz01> hysterio: Talk time... off I go.. it's a fight for power points. | |
| <siccness> it's a fight for power points, bahaha | |
| <siccness> bet none of the geeks thought about bringin a double adapter :P | |
| <hysterio> mental note: bring powerboard | |
| <siccness> I woulda thought that'd just be obvious :| | |
| <hysterio> well it is a conference, not a lan... | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> always good 2 be prepared | |

| <hysterio> it mightnt be catered | |
| <siccness> i got all the forums i visit to look good now | |
| <hysterio> siccness: u using bitlbee? | |
| <siccness> Yeah | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> siccness: Are you even going to use a WM, or X? | |
| <siccness> I still use Openbox, I require it to make the terminal windows look nice ;) | |
| <siccness> bitlbee is pretty cool | |
| <hysterio> im sold on it | |
| <siccness> Sweet, Sun are sending out like Solaris 10 (in a system similar to that of ShipIt) | |
| <siccness> FREE! | |
| <siccness> FREE BABY! | |
| <hysterio> siccness: already got mine ordered | |
| <siccness> You're a genius. | |
| <siccness> Gotta make the most of these freebies :D | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> What license? | |
| <siccness> CDDL | |
| <siccness> I must admit, k8temp is pretty cool. Tells me the temp. of both cores :| | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> IS it possible to put XVID encoded files into a different container format with re-encoding? | |
| <adhoc_> ping? | |

| *** pwae is now known as praetorian | |
| <siccness> whereever you go, ill be with you, whatever you want, ill give it to you | |
| <merlin-linux> siccness: kewl, i want a million dollars US thanks | |
| <siccness> that's all you'd ask for? man, thats weak | |
| <siccness> i'd ask for atleast $50 billion | |
| <siccness> $49 billion on beer | |
| <siccness> $1 billion on crap | |
| <merlin-linux> lol | |
| <merlin-linux> siccness: 1 million US would set me up for the rest of my life | |
| <siccness> Now, you said you were giving up alcohol before new years, and yesterday or the day before you went and got some? | |
| <siccness> I think you're mis-understand the concept behind "giving up" | |
| <merlin-linux> siccness: i am not greedy that all | |
| <siccness> $1 million US wouldn't setup shit man :P | |
| <siccness> $1m would last about 15 or so years. :P | |
| <merlin-linux> siccness: it the way you reinvest that money tho | |
| <siccness> Yeah, I'm not really a greedy man either actually :| | |
| <siccness> I just need a few little 'essential' things in my life and I'll be happy. | |
| <merlin-linux> siccness: yep | |
| <siccness> I think I might design my house to look like a bottle of beer | |
| <siccness> that'd be cool. | |
| <merlin-linux> siccness: but with 50 billion dollars tho you could fund alot of OSS projects | |
| <siccness> with $50 billion dollars I could buy a percentage of MS and force them to make bad decisions and kill them. | |
| <merlin-linux> siccness: then you would have barney licking at your windows | |
| <siccness> merlin-linux: you'd probably see me lickin my windows too :P | |
| <merlin-linux> lol | |
| <siccness> "the condensation!" | |
| <merlin-linux> 50 billion would buy you a lot of google shares | |
| <siccness> Yeah, but google is google. | |
| <siccness> Google can deal with itself. | |
| <merlin-linux> siccness: why would you want to buy into MS for tho | |
| <siccness> They're successful :P | |
| <merlin-linux> siccness: just put money into OSS projects to make them better | |
| <siccness> and they're not going anywhere quick. | |
| <merlin-linux> google shares are worth more than MS | |
| <siccness> It's not the point though anyway. I wouldn't put a cent into shares | |
| <siccness> I'd probably support the cool OSS projects | |
| <siccness> Such as hiring someone to build a decent accounting software package | |
| <merlin-linux> yep | |
| <siccness> but that's about all i'd care about, maybe hire someone to re-invent OpenOffice to make it 'not-shit' | |
| <merlin-linux> hehe | |
| <siccness> oo, found a bug :| | |
| <DarkMageZ> siccness, has it already been reported? | |
| <siccness> dunno, couldn't care :) | |
| * siccness heads over to find elinks bug reporting tool | |
| <DarkMageZ> yeah, i'm sorta getting bored with finding bugs. 80% of the time they have already been reported and the dev's don't care. 5% it's a new bug and it's fixed within 3 days. 10% of the time, it's a new bug and no-one cares. and the other 5% are already reported and fixed afew days after subscribing. | |
| <siccness> Yeah, I'm usually slow when it comes to finding bugs. So it's almost 99% of the time someone has already reported it | |
| <DarkMageZ> i like apport. it helps me report good traces. | |
| <alfish> Made it. | |
| <siccness> :) | |
| <DarkMageZ> i'm testing something, can someone message me? | |
| <siccness> Hey MatthewV | |
| <MatthewV> siccness, hello! | |
| <MatthewV> what's happening this windy afternoon? | |
| <siccness> Nothing really, just enjoying the non-windy weather :P | |
| <siccness> Anyone know of a VERY simplistic image viewer? | |
| <DarkMageZ> well, you could write a very simplistic gui to libpr0n or was it libp0rn | |
| <siccness> It's all good, eon sounds like what I wan | |

| <thoreauputic> 0/ | |

| <DarkMageZ> that's an interesting reaction to someone waving | |
| <thoreauputic> hey I waved back ! | |
| <thoreauputic> \0/ | |
| * MatthewV will be back soon................ | |
| <thoreauputic> (drowning not waving) | |
| * Hobbsee runs away from the brick | |
| <Hekta> Hey guys | |
| <siccness> Hey | |
| <Hekta> I've discovered an annoying problem | |
| <Hekta> when I restart my computer, my swap space doesn't turn on by itself | |
| <Hekta> and it runs really slow until I remember whats going on | |
| <Hekta> I have to open up Gparted, right click on the swap partition and click swapon | |
| <Hekta> Does anyone know how to make it happen by itself ? | |
| <thoreauputic> Hekta: an entry in /etc/fstab | |
| <siccness> Indeed. Your swap isnt being mounted automatically | |
| <thoreauputic> Hekta: something like | |
| <thoreauputic> /dev/hda1 none swap sw 0 0 | |
| <siccness> so by adding an entry to your /etc/fstab file, it will. | |
| <thoreauputic> of course change /dev/hda1 to the partition for your swap, obviously | |
| <Hekta> cool, thanks | |
| <thoreauputic> Hekta: then type sudo swapon -a to activate it ( it will be there on next boot as well) | |
| <siccness> Although none of this explains why it wasn't in there already :| | |
| <thoreauputic> indeed | |
| <Hekta> wait, siccness... this might be why | |
| <Hekta> # /dev/hda5 -- converted during upgrade to edgy | |
| <Hekta> UUID=fa601bc4-26cb-4ad4-afba-920f375077de none swap sw 0 0 | |
| <thoreauputic> aargh I hate that uuid stuff | |
| <Hekta> lol | |
| <siccness> thoreauputic: has a purpose tho | |
| <Hekta> it says it for my /dev/hda1 too | |
| <thoreauputic> siccness: maybe so, but it irritates the heck out of me to be honest | |
| <Hekta> it's commented out... should it be ? | |
| <siccness> heheh yeah fair enough | |
| <siccness> Hekta: the swap is commented out | |
| <siccness> ? | |
| <siccness> just uncomment it | |
| <thoreauputic> reminds me of windows registry settings - always cryptic, never memorable | |
| <Hekta> there is a # at the start of the line | |
| <thoreauputic> Hekta: dlete the # | |
| <siccness> remove it | |
| <thoreauputic> *delete | |
| <siccness> the # that is | |
| <thoreauputic> then run sudo swapon -a | |
| <Hekta> look at the bit I pasted in ^^ | |
| <Hekta> I think the # is only before the writing, not the UUID bit | |
| <thoreauputic> ah yes that's actually a comment, sorry | |
| <siccness> dont remove the hash for that then :P | |
| <thoreauputic> I think you can revert it to the /dev/hd* method by jsut adding the right line | |
| <Hekta> :) | |
| * thoreauputic is still on 6.06 although he has an edgy partition | |
| <Hekta> hrm | |
| <Simplechat> hey | |
| <Simplechat> which chan is for the linux conference? | |
| <Simplechat> ? | |
| <Hekta> ooh who's going to the open day on thurs ? | |
| <siccness> <--is a maybe | |
| <Simplechat> i'll probably be there later on | |
| <Simplechat> i was there today | |
| <Simplechat> and i should be there most of tomorrow | |
| <Hekta> sorry Simplechat, I'm not sure about the channel | |
| <Simplechat> kk | |
| * Simplechat has a gf who wants a date in the afternoon | |
| <Hekta> cool I'm going, looking forward to the virutal reality quake 8-) | |
| <Simplechat> i have gerric on wed/thur so i'll be from about 4-> on, then all of friday :) | |
| <Simplechat> so meh | |
| <Simplechat> vr quake? | |
| <Simplechat> when? | |
| <Hekta> that's what I've been told... | |
| <Hekta> hang on I'll re-read the email | |
| <Simplechat> kk | |
| <siccness> Bah, damn it, TAFE starts Feb 5th :| | |
| <MotherLUG> Simplechat, the channel for LCA is # linux.conf.au | |
| <Hekta> This was in the email from my friend who is organising our trip down | |
| <Hekta> *Robots | |
| <Hekta> *Solar panel cars | |
| <Hekta> *Virtual reality Quake | |
| <Hekta> *OLPC | |
| <Hekta> *MythTV | |
| <Hekta> For details: http://lca2007.linux.org.au/OpenDay | |
| <Hekta> on further inspection, it might just be VR | |
| <Hekta> but on the website for the VR people, it mentions being able to play quake with their stuff | |
| <Hekta> I've gotta go... see you guys later | |
| <Hekta> might see some of you on thurs | |
| <Simplechat> solar panel cars? | |
| <Simplechat> as in the small ones (aimscc) or the big ones? | |
| <ThePizzaKing> yay! I got my first preference for University courses | |
| <Hobbsee> ThePizzaKing: yay!!! | |
| <manicka> :) | |
| <ThePizzaKing> :D I'm happy (not that I wasn't before) | |
| <manicka> that's great ThePizzaKing | |
| <siccness> That was the best damn chicken parma ever made | |
| <manicka> I wish i had your enthusiasm ThePizzaKing :) | |
| <siccness> ThePizzaKing: Congratulations on getting your friend preference mate. Now, enjoy a years worth of bullshit. | |

| *** Cyvro1 is now known as Cyvros | |
| <siccness> Connection timed out :P | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: Thanks. :D | |
| <siccness> What crappy IRC client are you using? | |
| <Cyvros> Gaim. | |
| <siccness> Heh | |
| <Cyvros> I literally pulled the plug on my computer earlier. | |
| <siccness> Heh, not always a good diea :P | |
| <Cyvros> I turned on the router, Mum turned it off, then, when she realised I was online, turned it back on. | |
| <siccness> s/diea/idea/ | |
| <Cyvros> The system, but not programs. would recognise the network. | |
| <Cyvros> Got pissed off and yanked out the plug. | |
| <siccness> LOL | |
| <Cyvros> I do that sometimes when it's screwing up. | |
| <siccness> That'd probably cause it to screw up more :P | |
| <Cyvros> Helps ease the boiling anger within my tortured, tortured soul. | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: It's a surprisingly good technique. | |
| <Cyvros> Pity it only works with desktops. | |

| * Cyvros takes out a semi-automatic. | |
| <Cyvros> Or a revolver. Whichever looks cooler. | |

| <Hit3k> haha | |
| <siccness> I can turn it on, but it removes the eliteness :| | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: Question for you - how do I do backgrounds in Openbox? | |
| <Cyvros> I can't find anything online. | |
| <siccness> using a tool called 'feh' | |
| <Cyvros> The Internet has suddenly become worthless. <_< | |
| <Cyvros> Okay, thanks. | |
| <Hit3k> >_> dont say that.. ever.. | |
| <siccness> do a search on apt-get (i dunno how you search using apt) | |
| <Hit3k> apt-cache search | |
| <Hit3k> thats how i do it anyway | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: Already selected it and WindowMaker in Synaptic. :D | |
| <siccness> heh cool | |
| <Cyvros> I was reading an article that said that WM is the best WM out there. | |
| <siccness> now this is how you use it... | |
| <Cyvros> Hit3k: Neat. Thanks. | |

| <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly. | |
| <Cyvros> Hit3k: LOL. | |
| <Cyvros> thoreauputic: Okay. | |
| <Hit3k> I prefer e17 | |
| <thoreauputic> Hit3k: you can make it prettier by running gnome-settings-daemon from your start script :) | |
| <Cyvros> Does it actually look like NeXTStep? (However the hell those weird caps go.) | |
| <siccness> Haha | |
| <thoreauputic> Cyvros: as far as i know, yes - see http://xwinman.org | |
| <Cyvros> Try as I might, I can't get any version of Enlightenment. | |

| <thoreauputic> bah meditation | |
| * thoreauputic larts himself for his lousy typing | |
| <Cyvros> Good God! I'm not using WindowMaker, then. | |
| <Cyvros> I tried AfterStep and it tooks me seven minutes to find out how to leave it. <_< | |
| <thoreauputic> heheh | |
| <Cyvros> thoreauputic: So I don't need the repos? | |
| <thoreauputic> Cyvros: E 16 does fun things | |
| <thoreauputic> E 17 isn't in the repos as far as I know | |
| <Cyvros> thoreauputic: Well, I've tried about half-a-dozen ways of getting E16 and E17 and none work. | |
| <Cyvros> thoreauputic: I added things to my sources list. | |
| <Cyvros> Off the Elbuntu wiki. | |
| <thoreauputic> Cyvros: umm - it's in universe | |
| <Hit3k> I had to download and compile e17 | |
| <thoreauputic> Cyvros: as easy as apt-get install enlightenment | |
| <Cyvros> thoreauputic: Tried that a few times. Couldn't get it. | |
| <siccness> rofl | |
| <thoreauputic> siccness: if all else fails, spiritual solace resides in apt-get ;-) | |
| <Cyvros> Good God! | |

| <merlin-linux> interesting paragraph -> Hitachi notes it took the industry 35 years to reach 1GB (in 1991), 14 years more to reach 500GB (in 2005), and just two more years to reach 1TB. | |
| <Cyvros> Hehehe. | |
| <Cyvros> That's the sign of progress. | |
| <siccness> Isn't that how everything is though? | |
| * merlin-linux is going to enjoy a beer tomorrow night | |
| <siccness> why not enjoy one now, merlin-linux? | |
| <merlin-linux> siccness: i am | |
| <merlin-linux> i am enjoying my 2nd | |
| <siccness> same here | |
| <merlin-linux> hehe | |

| <merlin-linux> oh | |
| <Tatey> fella's | |
| <siccness> Tataz | |
| <merlin-linux> Tatey: hiho | |
| <merlin-linux> hell is frozen over | |
| <merlin-linux> &weather Hell | |
| <merlin-linux> <no name bot> merlin-linux: Temperature: 31.9°F / -0.1°C | Humidity: 93% | Pressure: 29.86in / 1011.1hPa | Conditions: Overcast | Wind Direction: ENE | Wind Speed: 0.0mph / 0.0km/h; Today - Widespread freezing rain through about 8 am...then periods of light freezing drizzle through about 4 PM...followed by numerous light snow showers. Accumulations less than an inch. Highs 30 to 34. North winds 5 to 15 mph. Chance of (2 more me | |
| <merlin-linux> ssages) | |
| <Phlosten> 93% humidity, ick | |
| <siccness> lol | |
| <Phlosten> who here has a Trixbox machine? | |
| <siccness> Not I | |
| <merlin-linux> there is a town in the US called "Hell" | |
| <siccness> Yeah, Bill Gates lives there. | |
| <merlin-linux> does he | |
| <merlin-linux> w0w i will have to go visit him when it unfreezes | |
| <merlin-linux> lol | |
| <Phlosten> hehe | |
| <DarkMageZ> i wish it would be lower than -20'c here for a day. | |
| <Phlosten> hey did you see that crap on the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation? | |
| <merlin-linux> nope | |
| <Phlosten> getting in trouble because they are providing funds to projects which are actually making things worse for the people they are supposed to be helping | |
| <merlin-linux> Phlosten: well windows was that first step | |
| <Phlosten> yeah, it shares a common theme | |
| <merlin-linux> exactly | |
| <merlin-linux> hehe | |
| <siccness> I dunno, I think Bill Gates donating money is kinda cool. | |
| <merlin-linux> well if he wants to be really kewl he can put 1M USD in my account | |
| <siccness> So you can spend it on funding OSS projects that could end his company? Yeah, I doubt he's giong to do that. | |
| <DarkMageZ> yeah, i'll forgive his sins for 1M in my account. | |
| <Phlosten> i will be more impressed if he wears a penguin suit to the next MS AGM | |
| <merlin-linux> and in return i will give him a clip under the ear | |
| <siccness> I'll be impressed when MS come out and say "well, hang on, Linux isn't as bad as we originally made it out to be" | |
| <merlin-linux> siccness: that would be great as he does pinch alot of the OSS community code | |
| <Tatey> siccness: then they'll release their own Linux-based OS :P | |
| <siccness> Tatey: Heh | |
| <siccness> merlin-linux: How do you state that? | |
| <merlin-linux> Tatey: but will it be free | |
| <Tatey> MS has too much pride, and too many developers who are familiar with the existing MS Windows. In addition, nothing would be backwards compatiblity without emulation | |
| <merlin-linux> siccness: it is just rumours that go around | |
| <siccness> It'd be stupid for MS to release a Linux distro, everyone would find out about other distros and switch to them | |
| <merlin-linux> siccness: and MS does look at alot of OSS | |
| <siccness> To get ideas, sure. | |
| <siccness> I doubt they copy / paste their code though, it's not "Anti-Trust" man. | |
| <merlin-linux> siccness: why you think novell had to pay back money to MS | |
| <Cyvros> Dammit, I need Beagle for my bedroom. | |
| <siccness> Cyvros: socks? :P | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: DVD. | |
| <Cyvros> Although I have been missing 1 sock for some time now. | |
| <siccness> heheh | |
| <siccness> funny how it's always a sock | |

| <Tatey> look at his theme, he is clearly an idiot | |
| <siccness> I have no idea, I just think it's theme-settings. | |
| <Tatey> I replied to the Brother MFC thread :P | |
| <siccness> I know, that's why I mentioned it | |
| <Tatey> panels are such bloat :P | |
| <siccness> Tatey: You know what's bloat? GUI Web-Browsers | |
| * siccness runs! | |
| <Tatey> you're bloat | |
| <siccness> lol | |
| <Tatey> I agree, Firefox is bloat | |
| <Tatey> there is a fine line I draw between usability and CLIness. I develop websites with CSS/XHTML and CLI browsers just don't support that | |
| <siccness> Yeah your blog/site looks terrible in elinks. | |
| <siccness> I could make it readable if you're using tables? | |
| <Tatey> look terrible? It's completely accessible | |
| <Tatey> I test everything in CLI browsers | |
| <siccness> Lemme show you what it looks like in mine.. | |
| <Tatey> tables are deprecated, everyone is moving to (and should be) to XHTML/CSS | |
| <TheMuso> Tatey: IMO when you are talking the internet and html, nothing will ever be depricated. | |
| <siccness> People should stick to plain-text really. | |
| <TheMuso> I'm sure there is still html out there from many years ago | |
| <siccness> Fancy shit sucks | |
| <Tatey> TheMuso: while that's true, I'm an advoate for web standards, and I support it whereever I can | |
| <Tatey> *advocate | |
| <siccness> I don't mind css and what not, it's cool, but it'd be great if people offered an alternative | |
| <Tatey> an alternative? That defeats the purpose of standards | |
| <TheMuso> Tatey: THing about tables is, that text mode browsers will not often support the fancy positioning of css. | |
| <siccness> Here's the way I want things: person has a website, root of site, two links: fancy and text | |
| <siccness> both get updated by using some form of system | |
| <Tatey> that's true, but the people who use text based browsers aren't using the internet for a multimedia-rich experience. Furthermore, I'm not ruling out accessiblity to CLI browsers. Websites should be accessible regardless of your platform/browser. CSS/HTML allows people to achieve this | |
| <Tatey> my website is perfectly functional in a GUI or CLI web browser | |
| <siccness> Your site is accessible, just doesn't look decent (not your fault, i wouldn't expect anyone to focus on 0.5% of cli browser users) | |
| <Tatey> yes, while it won't look as "pretty" as a table site, it's functional none the less. It'd work perfect for blind or visually imparied people who rely on speech recognitition | |
| <siccness> http://img440.imageshack.us/img440/1006/tateycomfp2.jpg | |
| <Tatey> hmm, elinks renders it different from me | |
| <Tatey> err, as in, I've only ever used links to test it | |
| <siccness> Yeah, I followed what you meant :) | |
| <Tatey> you changed your OB theme? | |
| <siccness> Yeah | |
| <siccness> elinks looked like ratshit using yours | |

| *** Badboy is now known as SuPeRhAm | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Is fastmail any good? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> 円 Yes? No? | |
| <Simplechat> maybe? | |
| <siccness> possibly | |
| <Hobbsee> Davo_Dinkum: yes | |
| <Hobbsee> Davo_Dinkum: i'm using it for *all* of my email | |
| <Hobbsee> Davo_Dinkum: what are you wanting to use it for? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Hobbsee: All my email basically. | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> I'm sick of yahoo and MSN. | |
| <Hobbsee> Davo_Dinkum: it's stacks better than those | |
| <Hobbsee> Davo_Dinkum: my main gripe is that they dont do spam filtering with spam assassin | |
| <Hobbsee> Davo_Dinkum: unless you've got one of the $/year accounts | |
| * Hobbsee gets the @ubuntu.com && @kubuntu.org --> gmail, then forwards directly to fastmail (after being despammed) | |
| <Hobbsee> works pretty well | |
| <Hobbsee> gmail's pretty good as well | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Damn I wanted the $0 account. | |
| <Hobbsee> you can | |
| <Daemon> just use gmail | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Gmail has privacy issues. Also google sucks. | |
| <Hobbsee> Davo_Dinkum: depends how much spam you get, too | |
| <Daemon> lol, and you think others will be better? :) | |
| <Hobbsee> oh, of course, imap rocks the socks off pop3 | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Any other providers? | |
| * Hobbsee shrusg | |
| <Hobbsee> havent found anyone better than gmail and fastmail | |
| <Hobbsee> not when i last went looking | |
| <Hobbsee> bluebottle tends to suck | |
| <Daemon> yahoo / lycos etc also available | |
| <Hobbsee> (no spam, but email to you doenst get thru without verification) | |
| <Hobbsee> [23:02] <Davo_Dinkum> I'm sick of yahoo and MSN. | |
| <Hobbsee> yahoo sucks. | |
| <Daemon> http://www.fepg.net/ <- larger list there | |
| <Daemon> but remember if you're getting it for free then that's the value you need to expect | |
| <Hobbsee> yes, and free != free trial | |
| <Daemon> most people are happy enough with gmail, it's one of the best for a reason | |
| <Hobbsee> but it does have it's sucking points | |
| <siccness> such as? | |
| <Daemon> as does every generically build mail system, but for the cost it's pretty decent :) | |
| <Daemon> build=built | |
| <Hobbsee> siccness: no imap :P | |
| <siccness> heh | |
| * Hobbsee keeps going between too many comptuers for pop3.... | |
| <Daemon> I mean it all depends on how fussy you are on features, if you're really fussy then paying $30/year for hosting / email isn't a concern | |
| <siccness> damn it, i hate it when i accidently press cltr+c | |
| <Hobbsee> Daemon: that is true. which i dont | |
| <Hobbsee> (yay!) | |
| <Daemon> I run my own server, so you may consider me somewhat fussy :P | |
| <Hobbsee> hehe | |
| * Hobbsee wonders why she's getting a whole lot of ubiquity bugmail... | |
| <Hobbsee> oh, kubuntu-testers. that's why | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> If I set up a mail server at home, does that mean I could use it to give myself an email address? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Daemon: ? | |
| <Daemon> not reliably | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> How so? | |
| <Hobbsee> youd' have to own the domain, surely? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Hobbsee: Yeah that's what I thought. | |
| <Daemon> you need a domain name, then you need DNS hosting to forward to your MX, and you'll need a static IP | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> MX? | |
| * Hobbsee has a subdomain :) | |
| * Davo_Dinkum doesn't know what a subdomain is. | |
| <Daemon> MX is the mail pointer in the DNS | |
| <Hobbsee> ie, i can get anything@hobbseeDOTmailboltDOTcom and i'll get it | |
| <Hobbsee> as opposed to just user@host.com | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Daemon: Do I really need a static IP, or could I use a dynamic DNS server/service thingy? | |
| <Daemon> you can, but it's not worth the fiddling | |
| <Daemon> honestly, just sign up with fastmail or gmail and be done with it | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> I have gmail. It has privacy issues. | |
| <Hobbsee> then grab a fastmail account | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Spose | |
| <Hobbsee> :P | |
| <Daemon> only if you're paranoid, it's not as if there are going to be people reading your email | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> How do you know? | |
| <Daemon> if someone wants to do that, they'll get access anyway | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> Yeah probably. | |
| <Daemon> people get so caught up on privacy issues that they don't even realise what they're talking about | |
| <Daemon> I bet you use a phone and I bet you don't shred absolutely everything with your name on, so if someone wants information from you they'll get it anyway | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> A mobile phone or landline? | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> I don't have a mobile. | |
| <Daemon> and if you were really trying to hide stuff you'd never use any form of communication bar face-to-face | |
| <Daemon> both | |
| <Hobbsee> Daemon: not even then | |
| <Hobbsee> Daemon: of course, best option is just to encrypt all your mails | |
| <Daemon> exactly :) | |
| <Hobbsee> Daemon: hidden cameras, etc | |
| <Daemon> best option is to just be normal and don't have stuff worth hiding :) | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> People have a right to privacy. | |
| <Hobbsee> indeed. but to go overboard? | |
| <Daemon> maybe in PNG or something, otherwise we live in a digital world | |
| <Daemon> we have privacy but we need to remember that information leaves our PC and phones, passing through many different systems inbetween | |
| <Daemon> if you don't like that then start saving for a ticket to some 3rd world country, that's just reality | |
| <Davo_Dinkum> .quit | |
| * Daemon crawls back into his cave | |
| <Hobbsee> hehe | |
| <Daemon> I think Davo has some serious paranoia issues ;) | |
| * Daemon bugs his phone for the CIA | |
| <Hobbsee> heh | |
| * Hobbsee just uses fastmail for the imap. | |
| <Hobbsee> and that they dont go down | |
| * siccness yawns | |
| <siccness> Is there an application that measures how much traffic it's using, both incoming and outgoing? | |
| <Daemon> when you say "it's" do you mean your PC? | |
| <siccness> eek | |
| <siccness> poor writing, sorry..hang on | |
| <siccness> Is there an application that measures how much traffic each specific application is using, both incoming and outgoing? | |
| <Daemon> specific apps, no idea sorry :) | |
| <siccness> Heh, quite alright :) | |
| <Daemon> you could show via the port I guess, something like iptraf will show that | |
| <siccness> Yeah, that's true. | |
| <Daemon> but if it's an app that opens multiple ports it'll get messy | |
| <siccness> I'm just trying to see if I can work out where my bandwidths going and cut back | |
| <siccness> Yeah, this is cool, thanks :) | |
| <Cyvros> Muahahahahaha! | |
| * Cyvros goes to do the dishes. | |
| <Hit3k> compiling things is fun boys and girls! | |
| <siccness> Sure is. | |
| <Cyvros> LOL. | |
| <Cyvros> So, how're we all, then? | |
| <Hit3k> tired | |
| <siccness> Why would you want to install a package in 3seconds, when you can compile it in 30mins, I mean, really. | |
| <Hit3k> because there are no packages for it? | |
| <Cyvros> Ah. | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: LOL. | |
| <siccness> Hit3k: Indeed. | |
| <Cyvros> I finally get Enlightenment and I find it's just too damned flashy for me. | |
| <Cyvros> I need to get themes for it. | |
| <siccness> To make it more flashy? :P | |
| <Cyvros> And no scrolling through workspaces... | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: To make it look like i-merry from OB. :D | |
| <siccness> i-merry, hey... | |
| <siccness> big sicc googles | |
| <siccness> I like it. | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: Don't you have it? | |
| <siccness> I just noticed I did. | |
| <Cyvros> I thought it was one of those included ones with OB. | |
| <Cyvros> Hehehe. | |
| <siccness> Cyvros: It depends. | |
| <siccness> Ubuntu probably included it with OB | |
| <siccness> while Gentoo split it up, with a seperate package for themes. | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: Ah. | |
| <Cyvros> To be honest, I probalby installed it separately, then. | |
| <Cyvros> probably* | |
| <Cyvros> When I did the *box WMs, I did searches in Synaptic for Fluxbox, Blackbox and Openbox and grabbed all I could get. :D | |
| <siccness> lol | |
| <Cyvros> It's easier that way. | |
| <Cyvros> I'm finally making my way through my inbox - only 7 unread now! | |

| <siccness> Cyvros: Care to explain? | |
| <Hit3k> like tag clouds in your /home | |
| <Cyvros> siccness: Like how flickr and Gmail work. | |
| <Cyvros> Giving files labels/tags and sorting that way. | |
| <Hit3k> movies PORN music pictures | |
| <siccness> Ahuh. | |
| <Cyvros> Have 'major' folders like 'Music', 'Pictures', 'Documents', etc., but sort everything within these with tags. | |
| <Cyvros> I'm considering getting a new Gmail account just to have some file backups organised by tags. | |

| <Tatey> http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=663460 <-- /me adds fuel to the fire | |
| <siccness> Nice :) | |
| <Tatey> it's trolling, without being too direct | |
| <siccness> No, trolling would be: "Linux also supports other architectures such as: [LIST ALL KNOWN SUPPORTED ARCH'S] | |
| <siccness> " | |
| <Tatey> LOL | |
| <Tatey> it's insane how many archs actually exist | |
| <Tatey> the big ones though are x86, PPC and Sparc in that order probably | |
| <Tatey> ahh, x86/x86-64 | |
| <siccness> I was gonna sya | |
| <siccness> what abotu 64? :P | |
| <siccness> Man the gentoo forums are almost as bad as ubuntuforums | |
| <siccness> (mostly off the wall section) | |
| <siccness> "How big is yours"..with a poll :-| | |
| <Tatey> LOL | |
| <Tatey> yea.... | |
| <Tatey> that's a problem when forums get large | |
| <Tatey> they attract nubs | |
| <Tatey> Ubuntuforums is better handles for shit though | |
| <siccness> They attract wankers. | |
| <siccness> I like the arch forums; however, i feel out of place on them. | |
| <Tatey> they're a lot of arch specific stuff of course | |
| <siccness> Yeah. | |
| <Tatey> we get some gentoo trolls | |
| <siccness> As expected. | |
| <Tatey> not alot | |
| <siccness> That's ok, we get a lot of ubuntu trolls on gentooforums :| | |
| <siccness> "Why I'm leaving Gentoo for Ubuntu" threads. | |
| <siccness> What amazes me is that people actually respond to them. | |
| <Tatey> yes, why do people do that? | |
| <Tatey> administrators should just delete them | |
| <Tatey> or make a forum where you can post taht you're leaving | |
| <siccness> I think just deleting them is enough. | |
| <Tatey> there should be more "I'm leaving Gentoo for Arch" threads :P | |
| <Tatey> we get a few of them | |
| <siccness> Well you actually need people first :P | |
| <Tatey> :P | |
| <siccness> Damn it :| | |
| <Tatey> I've seen one leaving arch thread since I've been there | |
| <Tatey> some guy leaving arch for gentoo | |
| <siccness> I don't understand the point of a regular user doing it. I'd like to know if a developer is leaving though | |
| <siccness> Considering they usually have a viewpoint that's valid :P | |
| <Tatey> yea, I dont know much about devs | |
| <siccness> A lot of the devs have blogs and what not | |
| <siccness> That go into detail about certain packages, and what not | |
| <Tatey> yea | |
| <Tatey> devs are leet haxors | |
| <siccness> I appreciate every single second of work that the dev's do. | |
| <Tatey> I buy new Arch CD's when they release them. Proceedes go to the dev's | |
| <siccness> That's cool. | |
| <siccness> How many devs are there on arch? | |
| <b_d_p> morning all. anychance anyone's awake? | |
| <b_d_p> allo? | |
| <TheMuso> Yeah I'm awake. | |
| <TheMuso> Would have been online earlier, but was on my way to LCA. | |

| <hysterio> to those of you that have flash - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rfP90uJ12eQ&eurl= | |
| <DarkMageZ> hysterio, that's from a tv series called robot chicken | |
| <DarkMageZ> i don't think it ever aired on regular ausrtralian tv tho | |
| <hysterio> DarkMageZ: cool, seen a few other Adult Swim things (Harvey Birdman, Venture Bros) | |
| <DarkMageZ> wasn't Aqua Teen Hunger Force from Adult Swim as well | |
| <DarkMageZ> that's also a good series to watch :P | |
| <hysterio> DarkMageZ: I think so (re: Aqua Teen) | |
| <DarkMageZ> yeah, i looked it up. it is. | |
| <DarkMageZ> adult swim makes some great stuff | |
| <hysterio> yeah - adult swim is the distributor I think | |
| <DarkMageZ> oh, that explains alot | |
| <DarkMageZ> i was starting to think that they must have alot of very witty people with good graphics skills. | |
| <hysterio> i think it started as a show on comedy central | |
