| 16:04.05 | ibot | Questions in the channel should be specific, informative, complete, concise, and on-topic. Don't ask if you can ask a question first. Don't ask if a person is there; just ask what you intended to ask them. Better questions more frequently yield better answers. We are all here voluntarily or against our will. |
| 16:04.09 | elg | i can help you switch. :) |
| 16:04.39 | elg | so my brilliant plans to make an organ stop switchboard out of pushbuttons and an arduino have been shattered... |
| 16:04.46 | elg | by my own nagging brilliance |
| 16:05.08 | elg | or put another way, my crazy scheme wouldn't have needed to be developed if I'd just seen the obvious in the first place |
| 16:05.40 | BLZbubba | stupid git! (what?) |
| 16:05.42 | elg | i.e. use a keyboard and set up keybindings |
| 16:05.54 | BLZbubba | jsmith: find the revision of a sandbox. i ended up with: |
| 16:05.58 | elg | no hardware skillz needed. just a little software |
| 16:06.04 | BLZbubba | svn info -R | grep Revision | cut -b 11- | sort -rn | head -1 |
| 16:06.48 | BLZbubba | is that the best way to do it? |
| 16:07.12 | BLZbubba | i like to avoid starting up 5 processes whenever possible :) |
| 16:08.12 | fugue88 | BLZbubba: This is *nix: processes are cheap! ;) |
| 16:09.38 | BLZbubba | true |

| 16:27.49 | elg | well, it does have one drawback: no visual feedback |
| 16:28.02 | elg | so I perhaps will eventually do the arduino |
| 16:28.09 | levi | At least rig up a nifty MIDI controller board. |
| 16:28.26 | elg | or, I may get a used flatpanel on craigslist and see the gui |

| 17:20.52 | obiyoda | Is wordpress mu the best way to set up a blogging network or are there other alternatives? |
| 17:24.02 | levi | There are probably more options for that than you can shake a stick at, but wordpress will work. |
| 17:25.27 | Migs | MovableType is the other open source alternative |
| 17:25.45 | Migs | those are the two big players |
| 17:28.02 | obiyoda | Migs, thanks I'll take a look at movable type haven't done much with that in the past. |
| 17:29.33 | Migs | why don't you want WordPress? |
| 17:30.21 | obiyoda | I will probabbly end up using wordpress but just wanted to look and see if there were any other options out there before we make the jump |
| 17:32.03 | Migs | from someone who evaluated the options before setting up a blogging network, I highly recommend WPMU |
| 17:32.11 | Migs | It's tough to beat, and it does the job quite well |
| 17:32.32 | Migs | not to mention it's updated frequently |
| 17:32.36 | Migs | well-maintained |
| 17:32.52 | Migs | kind of annoyingly so. You finally get around to upgrading to the latest version, and the next day there's a new version. |
| 17:33.16 | eightyeight | except their plugins suck |
| 17:33.35 | eightyeight | and movabletype creates static html files, taking a great deal of load off your server when visiting posts |
| 17:33.55 | eightyeight | if only it weren't so blasted slow |
| 17:34.26 | Migs | WordPress plugins suck? |
| 17:34.44 | eightyeight | most, yes |
| 17:34.53 | Migs | Uh, then don't use those plugins |
| 17:35.00 | Migs | Problem solved. |
| 17:35.04 | eightyeight | exactly |
| 17:35.15 | Migs | Or create your own plugin that does what you need |
| 17:35.36 | eightyeight | not much gets past you, does it? :P |
| 17:35.50 | Migs | I just don't see why you mentioned that as a failing of WordPress |
| 17:36.00 | Migs | I love all the plugins available |
| 17:36.22 | Migs | And I like that there's such a vibrant community that builds them. |
| 17:36.36 | eightyeight | wordpress is barelf functional without the plugins, and the vast majority of plugins suck |
| 17:36.50 | eightyeight | so, you're left with a skeleton of a blogging platform |
| 17:37.09 | eightyeight | s/lf/ly/ |

| 17:37.50 | TodPunk | I once had to write a blog in PHP for an interview. Took an hour, but was fully functional. Just needed some style sheet work. |
| 17:38.32 | TodPunk | Working with Wordpress seems really, really dumb in that regard, unless you're installing it with like, cpanel or something |
| 17:38.58 | TodPunk | heaven forbid anyone looks at moveable type *shiver* |

| 18:14.30 | JoshH | how easy is it to just make sure that nobody not on your friends list can see anything about you at all? |
| 18:14.51 | JoshH | i don't use FB but my wife does and i sometimes wonder about the stuff she puts on there |
| 18:15.18 | TodPunk | JoshH: pretty easy. |
| 18:15.35 | JoshH | of course, her friends list includes hundreds of people that she never actually sees or talks to in real life, so that wouldn't help much |
| 18:15.43 | TodPunk | My friend's wife just did it because she works for CPS in Texas |
| 18:16.13 | JoshH | there should be a separation of "friends" and "people that i might have sort of cared about at one point" |
| 18:16.23 | Migs | you can create your own friend groups |
| 18:16.24 | elg | JoshH: you click on "friends" |
| 18:16.44 | elg | JoshH: i make heavy use of friends lists |
| 18:16.53 | Migs | lately I've been defriending people more than adding new friends |
| 18:17.00 | JoshH | so you can have it so that the stuff you put on your status only goes to one friends group? |
| 18:17.10 | elg | I have three lists that everyone is in at least one of: friends, acquaintances, charity cases |
| 18:17.36 | Migs | Getting tired of all the stupid "Johnny has a new baby ocelot in Zoo World!" posts and crap. And even if you block all messages from that application, they're just going to start playing a new Facebook game later with more stupid messages. |
| 18:17.38 | elg | e.g. the people i accepted friend requests because I don't want to offend them, but most of my posts are hidden from them and they're mostly hidden from me |
| 18:17.43 | bonez2046 | My wife is finally on FB.. but she is troubled by the younger women (she's 48) in our ward who are 20 to 30.. they refuse to pick up the phone or email.. but they'll blog and chat and text all day |
| 18:18.07 | Migs | why is that troubling? |
| 18:18.18 | Migs | I hate answering the phone, too |
| 18:18.42 | levi | The only people who call are the ones who want them to do something they don't want to do. |
| 18:18.49 | bonez2046 | these younger ladies won't talk, get them together and they'd all rather sit in silence and text each other than actually open their mouths and converse |
| 18:18.55 | Migs | it's so lame that I have to be tethered to a device for the complete duration of the conversation. IM is better, because I can talk to them whenever I want, or pretend I'm not even there. |
| 18:19.06 | Migs | That's normal for the younger generation |
| 18:19.17 | elg | i also have lists for "no politics", "no religion", location (i knew them from here in california or there in new mexico or in utah), geeks (so I dont have to subject non-techie friends to inside jokes, though sometimes I do just for fun anyway) |
| 18:19.21 | unum | I go to church with 20 to 30 year old women |
| 18:19.26 | unum | and we don't have that problem |
| 18:19.52 | unum | I guess there was one girl like that |
| 18:20.12 | bonez2046 | must just be in our ward.. the problem is when these younger women have to interface with older (60 + year old) women in the ward.. who don't DO email or texting or facebook.. the communication stops |
| 18:20.18 | elg | i don't think it's anyone else's business how much I use the phone, talk face to face, or any other specific communication technology |
| 18:20.19 | unum | most people I know won't answer phone numbers they don't have saved in their cell phones |
| 18:20.33 | unum | especially women(staulker issues) |
| 18:20.50 | bonez2046 | just seem with these, take away their smart phone and they are DUMB.. can't communicate without their device.. |
| 18:21.07 | unum | we have problems sometimes be cause a couple of the women have texts blocked |
| 18:21.24 | unum | bonez2046: you shouldn't look at it that way |
| 18:21.32 | unum | they're using their smart phones smartly |
| 18:21.40 | unum | to communicate the way they want with who they want |
| 18:21.50 | unum | they are choosing not to talk to the older women |
| 18:21.55 | bonez2046 | oh, great unum, please, tell me how I should look at it? |
| 18:21.56 | unum | it's a consicious decision |
| 18:22.07 | elg | these crazy modern humans are immobile. take away their cars and they can't even get across town |
| 18:22.20 | unum | elg: exactly |
| 18:22.37 | unum | they are using techonology to live their lives how they want to live them |
| 18:22.42 | bonez2046 | the OLDER WOMEN are women in RS with whom they work.. i.e., they cut those older women out because they don't communicate in the correct way.. with the younger ladies.. the younger punish the older ones.. for not having a smart phone |
| 18:22.43 | unum | I don't know how you can call that dumb |
| 18:23.01 | unum | that's rude not stupid |
| 18:23.03 | elg | and the older ladies punish the younger ones for not communicating the way they prefer |
| 18:23.06 | unum | theirs a difference |
| 18:23.11 | bonez2046 | ok.. I am the one out of the loop here.. I'll shut up |
| 18:23.26 | unum | both sides are correct |
| 18:23.35 | JoshH | maybe the young ladies just don't want to talk to the old grannies because they can't relate, i dunno |
| 18:23.39 | unum | or maybe I should say both sides are wrong |
| 18:23.43 | JoshH | or maybe they just use it as an excuse to get out of RS |
| 18:23.51 | bonez2046 | oh, no, just my side is wrong, all else are right.. |
| 18:24.16 | unum | I just think you should be fair and recognize both sides are expecting the other side to change to their way |
| 18:24.37 | unum | and not have to change themselves |
| 18:24.46 | bonez2046 | how about all need to change a little |
| 18:25.17 | elg | yup everyone's gotta work at it, just like every other relationship evar |
| 18:25.18 | unum | that would be the reasonable approach |
| 18:25.27 | elg | if they value the relationship |
| 18:25.30 | unum | the problem is how do you sell it to everyone |
| 18:25.37 | elg | which frankly, is the first problem. |
| 18:25.47 | bonez2046 | like the govmt.. just force all to embrace it..;) |

| 18:33.26 | unum | and I think that's where the problems lies |
| 18:33.28 | bonez2046 | sjansen: I am concentrating.. what am I thinking now..? |
| 18:33.31 | JoshH | i refuse to install yahoo messenger to talk to people that don't have msn or aim |
| 18:33.40 | bonez2046 | unum: exactly!! |
| 18:33.52 | *** part/#utah harleypig (~harleypig@harleypig.com) |
| 18:34.14 | elg | now we're getting really meta in the lds culture |
| 18:34.16 | bonez2046 | JoshH: I understand that.. but then you limit yourself to only those friends using msn or aim |
| 18:34.18 | sjansen | msn and aim? Only federated XMPP for me. |
| 18:34.27 | unum | bonez2046: I just don't think the young are the only ones guilty of it :) |
| 18:34.29 | sjansen | None of the closed FB silliness. |
| 18:34.30 | JoshH | i've had msn and aim since like 1999 |
| 18:34.39 | elg | you accept a calling to do X, which you don't really want to do at all, but you accept it because that's how it is |
| 18:34.42 | JoshH | and it's always been enough to talk to most of the people i care about |
| 18:34.47 | sjansen | Only correctly configured Google Talk. |
| 18:34.47 | JoshH | adding a 3rd protocol is just way too much for me |
| 18:34.49 | bonez2046 | unum: clearly the old folks need to ride the learning curve too |
| 18:34.51 | elg | you put in a halfhearted effort because you're a sinner |
| 18:35.01 | levi | I communicate solely via postal letters written in longhand on fine parchment. |
| 18:35.18 | JoshH | bonez2046: maybe at the next RS meeting, someone could give a lesson on embracing technology |
| 18:35.20 | unum | my sister in law keeps sending me invitations via mail |
| 18:35.21 | bonez2046 | latter day sinner right here! |
| 18:35.27 | unum | I check my mail every other week |
| 18:35.32 | bonez2046 | JoshH: I'll suggest my wife do just that.. |
| 18:35.33 | unum | there's been some issues..... |
| 18:35.36 | JoshH | i'm actually pretty bad about checking voicemails |
| 18:35.43 | sjansen | Parchment?! I insist on clay tablets. |
| 18:35.44 | JoshH | i sometimes take 2 weeks or more between checks |
| 18:35.46 | elg | unum: your snail mail? |
| 18:35.55 | bonez2046 | brass or gold plates, anyone? |
| 18:35.57 | elg | letting stuff sit in your mailbox isn't the wisest thing |
| 18:36.10 | elg | unless it's locking I guess |
| 18:36.14 | JoshH | i've been burned a couple times for sure |
| 18:36.15 | unum | ya it is |
| 18:36.22 | sjansen | I use a PO box and check it weekly. |
| 18:36.31 | unum | and mostly I just get "resident at" mail |
| 18:36.55 | JoshH | unum: yes, junk mail and bills only, with the very occasional christmas card or whatever |
| 18:36.58 | BLZbubba | bonez2046: i'm sure he has no idea how the actual protocols work though, just how to use them |
| 18:37.12 | unum | I have most my bills emailed to me |
| 18:37.15 | sjansen | Switched to a PO box years ago when I suspected my crazy downstairs neighbor was stealing my mail. |
| 18:37.16 | JoshH | but now that i have a house, i'll soon be getting national geographic and scientific american, yay |
| 18:37.17 | bonez2046 | JoshH: but do they WRITE In those Christmas cards or just send an unsigned card? |
| 18:37.23 | unum | I guess I do get utilities snail mailed |
| 18:37.44 | JoshH | bonez2046: my wifes family likes to send long, detailed, boring christmas cards that go on and on about their lives, with no information that we didn't already know |
| 18:37.51 | bonez2046 | wouldn't you rather they just send Mr. Lincoln on a $5 instead.. (cost of the card and stamp)? |
| 18:38.07 | JoshH | and my wife insists on keepign them on display around the house for months |
| 18:38.20 | bonez2046 | JoshH: do you get all the tech journals too? |
| 18:38.45 | JoshH | i was gonna get linux journal and that one other linux magazine, but i forgot to do it the night i signed up for the other two |
| 18:38.51 | bonez2046 | I' should send in all my Pass To a Friend businessreplymail pieces from mine.. |
| 18:39.13 | sjansen | Every printed Linux mag I've every tried wasn't worth the subscription. |
| 18:39.26 | sjansen | LWN, however, is worth the subscription and more. |
| 18:39.55 | JoshH | sjansen: they aren't super useful, but i enjoy reading pretty much anything |
| 18:40.00 | JoshH | i've always had a weakness for magazines |
| 18:40.00 | levi | I never thought much of printed linux magazines, either. |
| 18:40.13 | JoshH | sysadmin used to be fairly decent, before it died |
| 18:40.24 | levi | National Geographic is cool mostly for the photography. |
| 18:40.33 | levi | And the cool pull-out maps and whatnot. |
| 18:40.38 | bonez2046 | LWN? |
| 18:40.38 | JoshH | ya |
| 18:40.42 | JoshH | i love nat geo |
| 18:41.06 | sjansen | If you're going spend money of delivered paper, spend the money on a subscription to The Economist instead. |
| 18:41.23 | JoshH | i think i checked the box for the economist when i setup my post office forwarding online |
| 18:41.26 | JoshH | can't remember though |
| 18:41.45 | sjansen | bonez2046: http://lwn.net/Articles/389149/ |
| 18:43.18 | bonez2046 | sjansen: thanks .. looks intriguing |

| 19:22.24 | sat-man | so is this the utah linux room? |
| 19:23.14 | unum | yes |
| 19:23.43 | unum | though some may insist you call it a "channel" |
| 19:25.47 | Migs | And it's not the "Utah Linux Room." It's the Utah Linux Users Group channel. |
| 19:26.04 | unum | s/Group/Groups |
| 19:26.11 | Migs | thank you |
| 19:26.42 | Migs | sat-man: And I assume you're the Operations Manager at Telecom Recovery. |
| 19:30.01 | goozbach | welcome sat-man |
| 19:30.07 | goozbach | let's try that again: |
| 19:30.13 | sat-man | Thanks |

| 19:30.17 | ibot | Good to see you, sat-man! |

| 19:30.32 | Migs | ~lart sat-man |
| 19:30.32 | ibot | cuts sat-man into thin stripes |
| 19:30.39 | sat-man | so everyone scattered around the salt lake valley? |
| 19:30.47 | Migs | Half the people here aren't even from Utah, It hink |
| 19:30.50 | Migs | *I think |
| 19:30.53 | Migs | I live in the Ogden area |
| 19:31.02 | goozbach | sat-man: the majority aren't even in utah anymore |
| 19:31.04 | goozbach | like me |
| 19:31.08 | goozbach | I'm from utah |
| 19:31.18 | goozbach | but I live in Athens GA now |
| 19:31.24 | sat-man | ahh |
| 19:31.32 | sat-man | all originally from utah at least? |
| 19:31.39 | Migs | not necessarily |
| 19:31.42 | Migs | why does it matter? |
| 19:31.44 | sat-man | well i guess i cant even say that |
| 19:32.03 | sat-man | sheeze, just asking |
| 19:32.21 | Migs | Well, your questions are making us uncomfortable. |
| 19:32.27 | sat-man | why? |
| 19:32.34 | goozbach | this is the channel for people who are fans of linux/unix/open_source who have some sort of relationship to utah |
| 19:32.39 | unum | migs is afraid you're going to hunt him down and install windows on his server |
| 19:32.44 | goozbach | Migs: leave the newbie alone |
| 19:32.46 | sat-man | apparently |
| 19:32.53 | Migs | Newbies are made to be tormented. |
| 19:32.55 | goozbach | ~migs |
| 19:32.56 | unum | I'm in the salt lake valley |
| 19:33.03 | unum | there's a buch in utah valley as well |
| 19:33.14 | Migs | ~migs sat-man |
