00:44.27 | badon | Just kidding, I don't even have a car! |
00:44.35 | blendmaster1024 | lol |
00:44.55 | badon | I love the bus. How else can you experience so many different body odors in just 4 hours? |
00:45.05 | blendmaster1024 | lolol |
00:45.44 | blendmaster1024 | i have too many debian cd images - they take up 50% of my 160 GB HD |
00:46.02 | blendmaster1024 | well, maybe 25% |
00:46.09 | badon | I have Solaris and FreeBSD images. |
00:46.18 | badon | I suppose I might need an Ubuntu image soon |

00:46.50 | badon | I've been testing wuala, but #Tahoe looks interesting |
00:47.13 | badon | All my old retired drives are going to eventually go into an online storage pool trade |
00:47.19 | blendmaster1024 | oh |
00:47.25 | badon | I don't trust wuala |

00:47.33 | badon | #tahoe is though |
00:47.34 | blendmaster1024 | :) |

02:23.32 | badon | anybody got the address to the conference? |
02:26.17 | Jayce^ | it's at the slcc lhm center |
02:26.25 | Jayce^ | like 100 s or so |
02:27.04 | badon | it's got to be further south than that if it's in sandy |
02:27.26 | badon | I think you may be thinking of the Arena on south temple |
02:29.15 | Jayce^ | bah, their site sucks |
02:29.20 | badon | yeah |
02:29.42 | Jayce^ | no, one-hundred like between 90th and 103 exits |
02:29.57 | blendmaster1024 | that would be 1000 s |
02:29.57 | Jayce^ | eg 10000 |
02:30.05 | blendmaster1024 | oh right |
02:30.08 | badon | right |

02:31.03 | blendmaster1024 | badon, :) |
02:34.43 | Jayce^ | yeah, so you don't refer to the 90th exit, or 123rd? |
02:36.56 | badon | no, because that would be ambiguous with downtown. |
02:37.32 | badon | 9000 south is at 9000 south, and 90 s and 123 s are very far away from those |
02:37.35 | badon | it's a sandy thing |
02:37.49 | Jayce^ | or it's just a downtown thing :) |
02:37.50 | badon | they shorten it for their area because it's tedious to say |
02:38.08 | badon | yeah :) |
02:39.48 | badon | A sandy funeral I went to was listed as being at 106th south. people from all over the country went to downtown SLC looking for this funeral in one of the big office buildings at 106th south, when really, it was at 10600 south. |

15:42.48 | unum | wow redhat does a lot of non-critical updates on their long term support releases |
15:45.24 | unum | maybe those are all coming from my alt repositories forg about that |
15:49.13 | sjansen | Depends on what you mean by "non-critical". |
15:49.44 | unum | that's true |
15:50.03 | unum | of course this server has a lot more software on it than I install on my servers |
15:50.43 | sjansen | With each major update (e.g. RHEL 5 Update 4), they add new features. Perhaps that's what you're seeing. |
15:51.03 | unum | ya I think that's what I'm seeing |
15:51.06 | sjansen | What alt repos are you using? |
15:51.54 | unum | dag |
15:52.00 | unum | and utter ramblings |
15:52.19 | unum | though I blocked them out because of some issues was I seeing |
15:52.27 | unum | though I may have just had to run clean |
15:52.31 | badon | unum: Hi. Did you switch from Debian to RH? |
15:52.47 | unum | my employer uses RH |
15:52.51 | badon | oh that's right |
15:52.57 | unum | I still use debian on all my personal machines |
15:53.14 | badon | I guess that says which one you like the best :) |
15:53.19 | sjansen | Do those repos provide anything you absolutely need? |
15:53.36 | sjansen | The only repo I recommend for production use is EPEL. |
15:53.42 | sjansen | Maybe JPackage. |
15:53.59 | unum | yes they do |
15:54.06 | unum | though those other ones may have it as well |
15:54.17 | unum | though I should have documented what was so important..... |
15:54.50 | JoshH | is that the server you were talking about yesterday that never gets any security updates applied? |
15:54.52 | unum | I think it may have been updated versions of certain packages |
15:56.08 | goozbach | epel and rpmforge, and centosPlus |

17:00.20 | sjansen | What an odd choice of subject for veneration. |
17:01.05 | goozbach | sjansen: maybe he's just describing attributes? |
17:03.37 | sojourner | chalk that up to just another weird religion in the world |
17:04.29 | fungus | is it any stranger than worshiping a dude that just won't stay dead? |

17:22.52 | fungus | some dude named haysoos, or something like that. |
17:31.42 | badon | Dracula |
17:31.45 | badon | that's his name |
17:31.54 | badon | hmm |
17:31.57 | badon | I wonder... |
17:32.04 | badon | Dracula = Jesus? |
17:32.13 | badon | They're both undead |
17:32.21 | badon | they both insist on drinking blood |
17:32.52 | badon | at least symbolically |
17:33.26 | fungus | ooh, I think you are on to something. |
17:34.42 | Migs | in Gabriel Knight 3, the vampires spawned from drinking the blood of Jesus |
17:34.50 | Migs | that's, like, how vampires started |
17:35.20 | Migs | ties in with the whole san greal/sang real thing that The Da Vinci Code stole |
17:35.40 | Migs | could there be some truth to all this? |
17:35.49 | fungus | wow, so christians are trying to become vampires symbolicly. |
17:37.08 | badon | fungus: aren't vampires christian? |
17:37.19 | badon | I mean, the whole cross thing... |
17:37.29 | fungus | yes, but not all christians are true vampires |
17:37.45 | badon | "no! a cross! I'm afraid of crosses! wooo!" |
17:37.54 | badon | in otherwords, crucifixion = bad |
17:38.09 | badon | fungus: nobody's perfect |
17:38.21 | fungus | but they are trying to be. |
17:38.23 | sjansen | speak for yourself |
17:38.27 | fungus | that's admirable |
17:38.33 | badon | fungus: the ressurection promises that everyone can be undead someday |
17:38.44 | fungus | sjansen is already a vampire. |
17:38.53 | Migs | don't you see...that would make the perfect vampire. A vampire who's immune to crosses. |
17:39.25 | fungus | So the "second coming" is going to be like Night of the Living Dead? |
17:39.38 | fungus | I better go back to church. |
17:39.58 | stderr | if somebody rises from the dead, I'm not checking to see if he's Jesus or not, I'm unloadin with my shotgun |
17:40.16 | badon | stderr: if he's jesus, it's OK. If he's not, it's OK. |
17:40.23 | badon | stderr: It works on witches too. |
17:41.00 | badon | except, and old pond can work for holy water in drowing mode |
17:41.09 | badon | any |
17:52.04 | Migs | just to be safe, better throw them in the Ganges |

19:00.28 | Migs | not even sure why it's really news, in fact |
19:01.10 | Jayce^ | apparently made more news because there were several 'leaks' about it (the FED tie-in, etc) that they're saying weren't true.. |

20:02.11 | elg | but his mom is a good candidate too. |
20:02.16 | levi | Well, the fall of the Republic was the beginning of the Empire. |
20:02.35 | Migs | and we all know where that leads... |
20:02.35 | levi | Which lasted for quite a long time, so I don't think lead poisoning could have caused both. :) |
20:02.38 | JoshH | same with star wars |
20:03.07 | Migs | maybe Empires are just the natural evolution of a Republic |
20:03.21 | levi | Dude, someone must have had a time machine and taken the Star Wars movies back to the ancient Romans! |
20:03.26 | elg | oh, trick question! ;) |
20:03.55 | elg | can we blame star wars I-III on lead poisoning? |
20:04.06 | Migs | I don't see why not |
20:04.14 | levi | Some sort of poisoning, anyway. |
20:07.00 | unum | the problem is they were handing out weapons |
20:07.24 | unum | the handing out of weapons did precede the empire |
20:07.38 | unum | so don't hand out weapons as part of the welfare system |

20:20.48 | badon | that might be too much... |
20:24.14 | levi | The big problem with the Roman Republic was that all the citizen farmers got shipped off to war, and came back unable to make a living farming anymore. |
20:25.29 | badon | oh, that was early on |
20:25.34 | badon | before the marius reforms I think |
20:25.37 | sjansen | The Democrats destroyed the Roman Republic. |
20:25.45 | badon | sjansen: could be |
20:26.05 | levi | Yes, but that was the cause of the doles. |
20:26.06 | badon | I think it was just a Carthage waiting to happen. Politics destroyed it. |
20:26.13 | badon | levi: ah |
20:26.27 | badon | levi: yeah, they started the doles then to prevent revolt |
20:26.38 | badon | iirc |
20:27.04 | sjansen | There was a second gunman on the grassy knoll, he destroyed the republic. |
20:27.06 | badon | Most of what I know about Rome I learned from Unum :) |
20:27.37 | badon | I don't have to read books about it, just get unum talking :) |
20:29.56 | sjansen | There was no Roman republican. It's just a lie invented by zionists. |

20:32.34 | fungus | gotta keep those hippies down |
20:33.04 | fungus | damn commies deserve a sonic cannon |
20:33.21 | JoshH | stderr, i've seen the first few episodes |
20:33.27 | stderr | JoshH: that's nothing, did you see the snatch and grab? |
20:33.28 | JoshH | always wanted to finish it but haven't gotten around to it |

20:34.10 | JoshH | ya, i know i would like it |
20:34.11 | stderr | nsfw-ish language in video, btw |
20:34.35 | JoshH | wow, pittsburgh looks like a war zone |
20:34.37 | fadein | that's not a sonic cannon. the swat team didn't know how to turn off their car alarm |
20:34.49 | fadein | embarassing, really |
20:34.55 | stderr | fadein: haha. |
20:36.19 | fadein | really though, is there any non-controversial way the police can handle protesters? |
20:36.48 | fadein | seems like a sticky wicket no matter how you approach it |
20:37.21 | fungus | Yes, leave them alone. |
20:37.23 | sjansen | Sure, they could invite them to tea but give them the wrong address. |
20:37.43 | sojourner | the police could just stand in front of them and put flowers in their mouths |
20:37.45 | stderr | direct them to a gym with a number of beer kegs and lock em in |
20:37.46 | fungus | protesting != violence |
20:38.18 | sjansen | ~calm fungus |
20:38.18 | ibot | ACTION sooths fungus, offers a backrub, tea, a jacuzzi and anything else that might help calm fungus down. |
20:38.26 | JoshH | i think just leaving them alone as long as they don't start smashing stuff is fine |
20:38.28 | sjansen | I said calm down~ |
20:38.30 | sjansen | ! |
20:38.35 | sjansen | ~quiet fungus |

20:41.41 | badon | I'm curious how everyone thinks my nick is pronunced? |
20:41.47 | badon | pronounced |
20:42.03 | vapor | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuKjBIBBAL8 |
20:42.59 | Migs | I'm pronounce it like the "badon" in "badonkadonk" |
20:43.43 | JoshH | bad-on, rhyming with strapon |
20:43.58 | fungus | lol |
20:44.29 | fungus | bay-don as in Radon |
20:45.20 | unum | I'm with fungus on this |
20:46.03 | unum | but I'm not into pegging |
20:46.29 | sjansen | I pronounce it "purple" as in or-an-juh. |
20:46.57 | unum | I'm actually unsure as to the pronuciation of my nick |
20:47.12 | unum | I think I checked it on wikipedia and I pronounce it mostly right |
20:47.19 | unum | which is pretty good fore me |
20:47.34 | unum | I pronounce as bad as I type :) |
20:48.08 | fungus | unum: my computer says your name like oonum |
20:48.38 | fadein | unum: your nick is the name of an insurance company? |
20:49.06 | fungus | it announces anyone that mentions my name when xchat isn't in the foreground |
20:49.22 | fadein | unum: oh, i missed the disambiguation page |
20:49.26 | JoshH | i love say on apples |
20:49.34 | fungus | yup, me too |
20:49.39 | JoshH | i can ssh to my wife's imac and have it get her attention as long as the audio is up |
20:49.42 | JoshH | and say funny stuff too |
20:50.02 | unum | I pronounce it oonum as well |
20:50.07 | JoshH | it would be awesome if linux had that somehow |
20:50.29 | fungus | I wrote an xchat plugin that does ssh mac say Attention, $whom mentioned you |
20:50.54 | fungus | really useful when I'm not paying attention. |
20:53.13 | stderr | non techies think my handle is "St. Derr" |
20:53.21 | stderr | or a reference to an std |
20:58.04 | goozbach | well getting an STD would be an error |
20:58.08 | goozbach | so that makes sense |
20:59.00 | fadein | JoshH: have you played with http://www.speechio.org/ ? It implements /dev/speech, and reads aloud the text piped to it |
20:59.20 | JoshH | never |
20:59.33 | Migs | site doesn't work |

21:00.02 | fadein | oops, double paste |
21:00.08 | JoshH | cool, i'll check those out |
21:01.19 | fadein | google cache says that speechio.org was up three days ago |
21:01.53 | Migs | haha http://www.speechio.org/fail/ |

21:02.38 | JoshH | me too |
21:02.45 | JoshH | i wish more did that |
21:03.16 | fungus | the voices that come with festival really suck. |
21:07.41 | badon | JoshH: I pronounce it "bay-don" |
21:07.54 | badon | fungus has it right |
21:09.09 | fungus | heh, the Mac says it bay-den |
21:09.10 | Migs | then you're pronouncing it wrong |
21:09.18 | Migs | It's "buh-don" |
21:10.18 | badon | fungus: I think "bay-den" is close enough |
21:10.34 | badon | Badon hill is named after me |
21:11.45 | Migs | I pronounce that "Buh-don" too |
21:11.56 | Migs | and are you sure it isn't the other way around? |
21:14.55 | badon | Migs: I get confused about that. |
21:15.04 | badon | Actually, I picked the nick when I couldn't figure out what w |
21:15.09 | badon | Actually, I picked the nick when I couldn't figure out what what nick I wanted |
21:15.31 | badon | I didn't want one that other people wanted, so I wouldn't have to fight over it. |
21:15.44 | badon | So I just random clacked on my keyboard and "badon" came out |
21:15.49 | stupidface | too |
21:15.59 | badon | alternating consonants and vowels, so it works |
21:16.20 | badon | my alter ego is armpithair |
21:16.21 | badon | :) |
21:17.34 | badon | I like squidface too :) |

21:18.29 | badon | When I played counterstrike back in the 90's I wanted "testicleez" but it was taken |
21:19.07 | fungus | testicleez? rofl. |
21:19.32 | badon | hehe |
21:19.36 | badon | I thought so too :) |
21:20.02 | fungus | has been fungus for 15 years |
21:20.14 | badon | I have been badon since 1994 I think |
21:20.33 | badon | is that 15 years? |
21:20.37 | badon | yep |
21:20.48 | badon | I don't remember for sure thought |
21:20.50 | badon | though |
21:21.06 | badon | When did the first IRC network get created? |
21:21.25 | badon | 89? |
21:21.42 | badon | I think I was on EFnet when it was new, like 1993 or something |
21:21.48 | badon | somewhere around there |
