| 02:51.29 | mrpull- | it's on a compaq nc4010 |

| 19:15.40 | scott | it would be interesting if MS included in IE an advertisement blocker. I don't think MS makes that much in advertisement, although I may be wrong, and google makes everything in advertisement. what would google do? 1) make a way around the blocker 2) require you to disable the blocker to use google.com or gmail.com etc or 3) require the use of firefox if the blocker was not able to be disabled? |
| 19:16.49 | scott | of course they probably wouldn't do that because, as successful as google is, MS would really like to have a part in that revenue instead of just eliminating it completely |

| 21:56.38 | mheath | I went in to get some high end kodak film. The stuffs supposed to be refrigerated (bellow 55 degrees farenheit) or it goes bad. They had it just sitting out on their shelf. |
| 21:56.59 | hans | hehe |
| 21:57.08 | hans | allen's |
| 21:57.20 | hans | don't quote me on the apostrophy |
| 21:57.23 | mheath | allens? |
| 21:57.27 | hans | or single quote, or whatever that thing is. |
| 21:57.40 | vontrapp | didactic mark |
| 21:57.40 | hans | there's one on university just north of center in Provo |
| 21:57.55 | mheath | Bah, I'm in Ogden |
| 21:58.10 | mheath | Salt Lake is a stretch for me. I can't make it down to provo just to buy a $5 roll of film. |
| 21:58.36 | mrpull | mheath: how about the intarweb? |
| 21:58.53 | mrpull | I hear you can buy things from the world wide web now ;-) |
| 21:58.54 | mheath | Yeah, thats my next idea |
| 21:59.05 | vontrapp | i always think orem whenever someone says ogden |
| 21:59.12 | mheath | Rather purchase it locally so I can have it soon and not have to pay shipping |
| 21:59.20 | vontrapp | was about to say provo was closer than salt lake |

| 21:59.56 | vontrapp | mheath: did you try local.google? |
| 22:00.34 | mheath | ah, nope, I'll take a look |
| 22:00.41 | bucky | Phone: (801) 969-9449 |
| 22:01.08 | bucky | says they have photographic equipment |
| 22:01.23 | mheath | What one is that? |
| 22:01.34 | bucky | url ^^ |
| 22:02.11 | levi | Looks like Northern Utah Photographic, Inc is by the Ogden Mall. |
| 22:02.24 | bucky | oooh that sounds cool |
| 22:02.51 | levi | They're in the 'Photographic Equip & Supls' category. |
| 22:02.55 | mheath | levi: they're out of business |
| 22:03.01 | mheath | (and fyi, the ogden mall no longer exists) |
| 22:03.12 | levi | Ahh. No wonder their domain is now a linkfarm. |
| 22:03.39 | mheath | You call the number and get a voicemail for them, but they never respond, you never get a live person... |
| 22:03.44 | mheath | and their location no longer exists |
| 22:03.53 | bucky | Wolf Camera Ogden |
| 22:03.53 | mheath | So I assume they're out of business. |
| 22:04.07 | levi | Okay, so there's Quicksilver Photo-Graphic Supply. |
| 22:04.22 | mheath | They're a manufacturer/wholesaler |
| 22:04.25 | bucky | i guess that's inkley's |

| 22:21.57 | colera | arrghh |
| 22:22.18 | Maquis | colera: don't worry... there'll be another one in fall |
| 22:22.35 | colera | the FALL is a long time from now : P |
| 22:22.41 | Maquis | yes... |
| 22:23.00 | Maquis | but if you know how to get on irc, the meeting last night might've been a bit too basic for you anyways |
| 22:23.06 | colera | lol |
| 22:23.14 | Maquis | serious |
| 22:23.29 | goozbach | Jayce^: I had to de-voice some punk in another channel I have ops on |
| 22:23.37 | colera | yeah but i have alot of questions, cause today or tomorrow i am abandoning linux for good |
| 22:23.39 | goozbach | he started dropping spoilers |
| 22:23.43 | Maquis | the meeting is for people who have linux installed on their computers at the installfest, and assumes that the person doesn't know how to use gnome, kde, etc... |
| 22:23.48 | colera | erhh i mean windows |
| 22:23.50 | colera | lol |
| 22:23.54 | Jayce^ | goozbach, wuss |
| 22:23.55 | Maquis | yeah... |
| 22:24.06 | Jayce^ | goozbach, I even saw ondiv talking about watching some |
| 22:24.15 | Maquis | if you're ready to abandon windoze, you probably wouldn't've enjoyed that meeting all that much... :) |
| 22:24.52 | Maquis | colera: what types of questions do you have? |
| 22:25.43 | goozbach | ondiv got all sorts of spoiled at C# |
| 22:25.45 | goozbach | er c3 |
| 22:25.46 | levi | You can always ask questions here. |
| 22:25.49 | colera | i just need help configuring my xf86 config file for my monitor and some other stuf |
| 22:25.50 | goozbach | er C3 |
| 22:25.50 | Jayce^ | hehe |
| 22:26.01 | colera | oh i will don't worry |
| 22:26.14 | levi | What's C3? |
| 22:26.15 | goozbach | to quote her directly "Like a crack baby!" |
| 22:26.57 | Jayce^ | goozbach, so are you going to be at hollywood connection? |
| 22:27.25 | Maquis | ~lart stupid connections! |
| 22:27.43 | Maquis | i've lost my connection at least 10 times today |
| 22:27.53 | hans | mheath: allens isn't one store only. it's a chain |
| 22:28.09 | hans | don't know how big or if there's one in ogden, but it wouldn't hurt to look it up in the yellow pages. |
| 22:28.33 | hans | hmm. 802.11b usb that works with linux $5 after mail-in rebtae |
| 22:28.37 | hans | tempting |
| 22:29.06 | Maquis | hans: where? |
| 22:29.10 | scott | levi, dpkg or apt, I don't care, aslong as one of them keeps track of it |
| 22:29.48 | hans | newegg |
| 22:29.56 | tensai | hans: sure, you can buy that and send it to me |
| 22:30.02 | hans | the gigafast WF741-UIC |
| 22:31.23 | dataw0lf | re: bigdog_ut pimpage. It's a lie. It always has been. |
| 22:31.40 | hans | ok, am I going to kick myself for going b? note that I can get g in os x |
| 22:32.15 | colera | it isn't that much faster unless you are doing computer to computer stuff |
| 22:32.18 | Maquis | hans: i managed to get a b card for free, and if i can get it working in linux, i'm switching to that over g |
| 22:32.26 | colera | but if you are you can alway's use your wired niC |
| 22:32.33 | hans | colera: good point! |
| 22:33.04 | levi | I still don't know why you want to use Linux on your iBook, but $5 is a pretty good price. I doubt you'll be kicking yourself over it. |
| 22:33.41 | hans | yeah, the kicking would only come because I am too cheap to buy a g card if I have a working b card ;-) |
| 22:33.51 | hans | an opportunity cost, you see. |
| 22:36.16 | Maquis | unless you can find a good g card that workes in linux, then i wouldn't worry |
| 22:36.29 | colera | os x has built in x11 support right? |
| 22:36.34 | hans | oh I've found one. it costs $60 and I'm not about to buy it though |
| 22:36.44 | levi | Just buy the cheap one. |
| 22:36.46 | hans | but I might save up for it |
| 22:36.51 | Maquis | get the cheap one for now |
| 22:36.55 | hans | but I'm thinking, newegg here I come. |
| 22:37.12 | Maquis | if you decide later to move up to the g card, the 5$ spent on this one won't make a big difference |
| 22:37.57 | hans | yeah. I'll do it if it does monitor mode |
| 22:38.02 | hans | still trying to divine that |
| 22:38.24 | goozbach | Jayce^: yup |
| 22:38.43 | Jayce^ | spiff, neybar and I will be there too |
| 22:39.46 | levi | What's monitor mode? |
| 22:40.10 | Maquis | levi: it's the mode you're in when you are using something like kismet or ethereal |
| 22:40.20 | bucky | wireless version of promiscuous |
| 22:40.24 | Maquis | (that's my understanding at least... could be wrong) |
| 22:40.37 | bucky | rfmon - radio frequency monitor mode |
| 22:40.41 | levi | Ahh. |
| 22:41.18 | levi | Any particular use for it outside of snooping or network debugging? |
| 22:41.30 | bucky | not really |
| 22:41.47 | hans | no, although the ability to do monitor mode is usually correlated to the ability to do host AP mode which is really cool |
| 22:41.50 | hans | make your laptop an AP |
| 22:41.57 | hans | great for plug meetings |
| 22:42.07 | goozbach | spiff & nebar gonna be dressed up |
| 22:42.08 | goozbach | ? |
| 22:43.29 | hans | levi: the main reason for running linux: flightgear |
| 22:43.37 | hans | I don't have the ram for both os x and flightgear |
| 22:43.39 | colera | freshmeat is being wierd |
| 22:43.52 | colera | what in the world is flightger? |
| 22:44.00 | hans | flightgear.org |
| 22:44.09 | levi | Ahh. Well, 1gig SODIMMs aren't terribly expensive. |
| 22:44.22 | levi | I guess more so than the 802.11 dongle, though. |
| 22:44.22 | hans | saving up |
| 22:44.31 | hans | and also just because I can run linux on it. |
| 22:44.38 | hans | at least until I run out of disk space. |

| 22:54.08 | Maquis | hans: yeah... |
| 22:54.11 | Maquis | i try... |
| 22:54.27 | levi | hans: But those are respectable things. |
| 22:54.29 | hans | but when a CS major sits down to a computer at home it's "spending too much time at the computer" |
| 22:54.36 | Maquis | she has this strange idea that i need to do "girl things"...... |

| 22:57.09 | Maquis | i think once i get money and get my new laptop, i might wish my mom good luck in getting me off of it... :) |
| 22:57.17 | levi | It's about a girl with fairly traditional Indian parents who loves Football (soccer). |
