| <purserj> no wonder someone threw it out | |
| <elkbuntu> it's barely been used, hardly any files or programs on it | |
| <elkbuntu> cant see a network card in it either | |

| <MistaED> hey i want to ask someone who uses the 'node here: what phone provider do you use with internode? i've been from iinet to exetel with the phone package but with internode there isn't a phone service afaik | |
| <croppa> MistaED: where are you? | |
| <MistaED> croppa: campbelltown/nsw | |
| <croppa> MistaED: I use freecall.. freecall.net.au | |
| <croppa> $5per month and 1c per min with no flagfall | |
| <croppa> US is a bit expencive though | |
| <croppa> 3c per min | |
| <MistaED> croppa: that covers line rental too? seems too cheap | |
| <croppa> no just calls | |
| <MistaED> is that voip? | |
| <croppa> line rental i use telstra | |
| <croppa> yes voip | |
| <MistaED> surprisingly, exetel has improved just before i start to put the foot down and go with someone else | |
| <MistaED> just today i finally get 210kb/s (my max speed) for bittorrent | |
| <purserj> hmm perhaps they've fixed their issues | |
| <purserj> Cos if they drop me out in the middle of a show again I'm going to hunt them down and feed them their own intestines | |
| <siccness> haha | |
| <kimatmoanaslsc> Kamping_Kaiser: it werks =) | |
| <purserj> well that was interesting | |
| <siccness> Hmmm | |
| <siccness> Bruce-Forcing Vista for keys | |
| <purserj> You might mean Brute? | |
| <siccness> lol | |
| <siccness> yes | |
| * purserj had visions of you in a blue singlet, stubbies and a can of beer, trying to guess the key | |
| <siccness> LOL | |
| <siccness> I can tell you right now, you're about 80% accurate on that vision :) | |
| <siccness> <--doesn't drink beer from cans :) | |
| <Tatey> hi siccness | |
| <Tatey> what happened to sicc-xp? | |
| <siccness> Hey big Tataz | |
| <siccness> sicc-xp crashed, he then died of a virus. | |
| <Tatey> back on Nubtoo? | |
| <Tatey> I mean Gentoo | |
| <siccness> Tough code to crack that one ;P | |
| <Tatey> lol | |
| <Tatey> with Xorg 6.9 | |
| <siccness> Nope | |
| <Tatey> oh nice | |
| <siccness> 7.0 | |
| <Tatey> what, clean install so you don't need to worry about breacking stuff? :P | |
| <siccness> Of course. | |
| <Tatey> hey, mind taking a look at something? I need some other opinions | |
| <siccness> Sure :) | |
| <Tatey> | |
| <Tatey> err | |
| <Tatey> that's not it | |
| <siccness> lol | |
| <siccness> i can't see it :P | |
| <Tatey> http://www.bottlebrush.net.au/preview3/ | |
| <siccness> I like that a hell of a lot. | |
| <siccness> The only thing that im not so sure about is the bottom bit | |
| <Tatey> can you elaborate? | |
| <siccness> well, the way I see it is, all the main content is visible on the page, then you scroll down to see if there's anything more, oh no, it's just abunch of leafs | |
| <Tatey> yea, I guess I didn't think of that | |
| <Tatey> it's apart of the design, but I could compromise by shortening it | |
| <Tatey> reckon that'd be alright? | |
| <siccness> Yup | |
| <Tatey> cheers | |
| <siccness> I think shortening it would be a hell of a lot better. | |
| <Tatey> see, this is why I like hearing from other people | |
| <Tatey> they will usually point out things that I miss or look over | |
| <siccness> because without the bottom bit, you've got a basic page that every tom, dick and harry has | |
| <Tatey> yea | |
| <siccness> but other than that mate, i love it | |
| <Tatey> cheers ^_^ | |
| <Tatey> I'll work those changes | |
| <siccness> :) | |
| <Tatey> ...so? | |

| <siccness> maybe I should just install a bunch of random applications and see how quick they install as opposed to how slow they install on Arch | |
| <Tatey> LOL | |
| <Tatey> I think, you got confused with Arch and Gentoo | |
| <siccness> Oh, sorry but I got it correct. | |
| <Tatey> you go waste your megahurtz | |
| <Tatey> :P | |

| <siccness> What does server scalability mean? | |
| <purserj> it means the ability of the server to scale to higher demands | |
| <siccness> It says here, 1-Way | |

| <siccness> AMD Athlon 5200+ at IT Estate (NSW) is $305, or $312 at MSY (VIC/NSW), at Infinity it's $340. | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> who here thinks telstra is bad? try this for a connection: | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> Be aware that ISP charges in PNG are exorbitant (eg: Goroka > University pays approx AU$50k a year for their current 64kbps leased > line). | |
| <purserj> Kamping_Kaiser: that ain't nothing | |
| <purserj> have a look at some of the charges in the other Pacific nations | |
| <purserj> the entire nation of Kiribati is served by a 1MB link | |
| <purserj> Vanuata only has 2MB | |
| <Kamping_Kaiser> ahh... 'crikey'? | |
