<elkbuntu> ahahahaha... dad just brought home a computer he found at the landfill, and we plugged it into a monitor and powered it up... Windows ME
<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
<elkbuntu> so it's probably almost virgin

<MistaED> croppa: that covers line rental too? seems too cheap
<croppa> no just calls
<MistaED> is that voip?
<croppa> line rental i use telstra

<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 =)

<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?
<beachbum> ..
<Tatey> what a beachbum

<siccness> purserj: joyous of fun that :)
<Tatey> hot
<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> lol
<Tatey> oh noes my hurtz... aren't that mega anymore :(

<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'?
<purserj> yuppers and thats satelite to Hong Kong, after that they've got to pay mucho bandwidth charges
