| 04:25.32 | Utah_Dave | fungus works for arosnet |

| 04:25.59 | jbot | fungus <n=fungus@2001:470:1f00:645:250:8dff:fe71:9a6b> was last seen on IRC in channel #uphpu, 6d 10h 25m 12s ago, saying: 'hurray for peanut butter!!!'. |
| 04:25.59 | burnin | for me its a pain, for the businesses who were relying on arosnet it was very bad. |
| 04:26.28 | Utah_Dave | yeah, I've been in their datacenter and server room |
| 04:26.33 | Utah_Dave | they do a lot of hosting, too |
| 04:26.55 | burnin | so fungus hasn't been around since they vacated the building? |
| 04:27.09 | burnin | He's probably been busy trying to get everything back up and running. |
| 04:27.35 | Utah_Dave | yeah, I bet |
| 04:27.42 | Utah_Dave | when did it go down? |
| 04:27.47 | burnin | my DSL modem made a connection this evening, it seems arosnet is working with fiber.net to provide temporary service. |
| 04:27.56 | burnin | went down friday morning last week. |
| 04:28.26 | burnin | but its the third time in about 6 months that arosnet has gone down hard for a significant amount of time. |

| 16:01.53 | mindjuju | couple months back, he had a nasty string of nightmares for about 2 weeks running, almost like clockwork, he'd wake up at 4a and come into our room |
| 16:02.51 | macnewbold | so how old is he really? 1-3 is kind of vague, or are you just not sure? |
| 16:03.12 | mindjuju | oh, sorry, that meant 1 child 3 years old |

| 16:42.20 | Lone_Wanderer | Or "mu". |
| 16:43.30 | thebigdog | anyone getting an iphone? |
| 16:43.41 | thebigdog | im thinking i might spring for one |
| 16:43.56 | jsmith | thebigdog: Not only no, but hell no |
| 16:44.05 | thebigdog | lol |
| 16:44.08 | jsmith | thebigdog: I'm not buying a $500 brick that I can't put my own software on |
| 16:44.16 | thebigdog | lol |
| 16:44.24 | thebigdog | sure you can...linuxiphone |
| 16:44.33 | jsmith | RIGHT.... |
| 16:46.42 | Lone_Wanderer | It'll be a while before you can put linux on your iphone. |
| 16:46.53 | Lone_Wanderer | Speaking of cell phones - which one should I get? |
| 16:52.24 | jsmith | Nokia E90 |
| 16:52.50 | jsmith | Or, if you want something smaller with most of the same functionality, the E70 |
| 16:53.16 | Lone_Wanderer | There's an SDK for the E90? |
| 16:53.36 | jsmith | Sure! |
| 16:53.45 | jsmith | It runs Symbian S60 3rd Edition |
| 16:53.53 | jsmith | You can run Python on it, Apache on it, etc. |
| 16:54.04 | Lone_Wanderer | oh cool |
| 16:54.25 | Lone_Wanderer | Why would I run apache on a cell phone? |
| 16:54.47 | Lone_Wanderer | Is its IP even accessible to the outside world? |
| 16:54.53 | jsmith | Good question... but the point I'm trying to make is that you *can* |
| 16:54.58 | jsmith | Yes... it's accessible |
| 16:55.13 | jsmith | And Nokia has some tricks up it's sleeve for making sure you can always find the IP |
| 16:55.14 | Lone_Wanderer | ohhh, so I could actually serve up web pages from my cell phone |
| 16:55.16 | Lone_Wanderer | sweet |
| 16:55.21 | jsmith | Exactly... |
| 16:55.32 | Lone_Wanderer | does it cost money to do so? like do you have to have a data plan or something? |
| 16:55.39 | jsmith | You'd have to have a data plan |
| 16:55.41 | Lone_Wanderer | k |
| 16:55.45 | jsmith | But other than that, it doesn't cost anything |
| 16:56.09 | Lone_Wanderer | so what I'd probably do is put my cell behind a proxy and only allow certain people access to it |
| 16:56.14 | jsmith | Yup. |
| 16:56.15 | Lone_Wanderer | does it also have GPS in it? |
| 16:56.20 | jsmith | The E90 does |
| 16:56.24 | jsmith | The E70 doesn't |
| 16:56.28 | Lone_Wanderer | ohhh |
| 16:56.31 | jsmith | (but you can use a bluetooth GPS with the E70) |
| 16:56.47 | Lone_Wanderer | so I could make a web page that will tell people where I am |
| 16:56.51 | jsmith | Yup. |
| 17:02.58 | macnewbold | your stalker would appreciate that |
| 17:03.09 | macnewbold | or girlfriend, or wife, or whatever the case may be for anyone's particular situation |
| 17:03.24 | macnewbold | parents might like that for their kids too, as long as it was protected from weirdos |
| 17:03.26 | Lone_Wanderer | I was thinking family members. |
| 17:03.48 | beandog | I would do that, but I think the sad realization that noone cares would crush me |
| 17:04.00 | Lone_Wanderer | Well, I'd set up Apache on the phone to only respond to requests from my server's IP, and then on my server I'd password protect the scripts that would access the phone. |
| 17:04.06 | Lone_Wanderer | lol |
| 17:04.30 | macnewbold | :( |

| 17:09.07 | thebigdog | throwing python errors and such |
| 17:09.36 | jsmith | thebigdog: Nope, never... unless the RPM database is having problems |
| 17:09.40 | Lone_Wanderer | Hmm. The Nokia site doesn't list the E90. |
| 17:09.42 | jsmith | thebigdog: Go to /var/lib/rpm |
| 17:09.47 | jsmith | Lone_Wanderer: Was just released last week |
| 17:10.02 | Lone_Wanderer | Ahh, I see. |
| 17:10.07 | jsmith | thebigdog: See if there are any files that start with __db |
| 17:10.14 | thebigdog | yeah 3 |
| 17:10.19 | jsmith | Lone_Wanderer: engadget.com has some good reviews |
| 17:10.32 | jsmith | thebigdog: Make sure yum or anything else using RPM isn't running, and then delete them. |
| 17:10.45 | thebigdog | k |
| 17:10.46 | jsmith | thebigdog: (Just the ones that start with __db) |
| 17:10.57 | thebigdog | yeah i have __db.001 |
| 17:11.07 | thebigdog | __db.002 and 003 |
| 17:11.28 | jsmith | Yeah, delete those |
| 17:11.47 | thebigdog | k |
| 17:13.04 | jsmith | Now try yum again |
| 17:13.16 | thebigdog | i still get python errors |
| 17:15.35 | dataw0lf | http://stderr.ws/dump/wahmbulance.jpg |
| 17:33.10 | jsmith | thebigdog: It's a little extreme, but you could try "rpm --rebuilddb"... before you do that though, can you copy the python errors to pastebin or something? |
| 17:33.50 | thebigdog | jsmith, thanks for the info...i found out that a developer overwrote the python binaries with soem other ones |
| 17:34.06 | jsmith | Doh! |
| 17:34.09 | jsmith | That'd do it |
| 17:34.31 | dataw0lf | eeeeediots |
| 17:34.37 | thebigdog | yeah with an old version...he hosed this box...i think it needs rebuilt now |
| 17:35.17 | dataw0lf | I'd rebuild him |
| 17:35.24 | dataw0lf | after destroying him with burnination |
| 17:35.26 | thebigdog | he was release |
| 17:35.59 | thebigdog | let go, terminated, fired, booted out the door |
| 17:36.16 | thebigdog | really hard to find good help these days |
| 17:38.50 | thebigdog | is there a way to reinstall an rpm without having the rpm already |
| 17:39.08 | thebigdog | that kinda made no sense |
| 17:44.39 | thebigdog | -100 stupid people |
| 17:44.49 | mindjuju | in fact, it was a 3x5 card |

| 17:45.25 | thebigdog | too much in the noggin |
| 17:45.51 | thebigdog | thats why i make the big $$$ |

| 17:46.28 | Lone_Wanderer | Why would someone insist on a specific back-end technology? |
| 17:46.35 | thebigdog | not people are stupid ...but i hate stupid people |
| 17:47.13 | mindjuju | i've literally started to go around and diagnosis issues in our company as ID 10 T and nobody's caught it thus far |
| 17:47.26 | Lone_Wanderer | XD |
| 17:48.22 | mindjuju | what the keyboard doesn't work? must be ID 10 T. What the web page doesn't load? must be ID 10 T. Your computer acts funny after you clicked on AnnaKornakov.exe attached to an email from Romania? must be ID 10 T |
| 17:49.18 | mindjuju | now, i have been asked, how it is possible that the same error code can apply to so many things, to which i happily reply that the error has to do with what's out of the computer than what's in and then I walk away leaving them confused |

| 17:51.59 | macnewbold | you need a programmer, who will be qualified to decide if it should be OO or not |
| 17:53.56 | timinator | crazy |
| 17:54.01 | Lone_Wanderer | Eh? |
| 17:54.28 | Lone_Wanderer | I was about to ask if you'd rather have me be the preacher, and you can join the choir instead. |
| 17:59.15 | macnewbold | I'm down with choirs too |
| 17:59.25 | macnewbold | speaking of which, if anyone likes male choirs, |
| 17:59.36 | macnewbold | free performance March 23rd, 7pm at Cottonwood High School |
| 17:59.44 | macnewbold | includes a gospel number, too |
| 18:00.13 | macnewbold | (choir is about 150-200 men, pretty impressive if I do say so myself) |
| 18:00.47 | Lone_Wanderer | cool |

| 18:01.27 | Lone_Wanderer | So, the E90 has wireless, and can run arbitrary code, right? |
| 18:01.36 | Lone_Wanderer | 802.11 wireless I mean. |
| 18:02.00 | Lone_Wanderer | You could war-walk. Just walk down the street with your phone and have it scan for networks. |
| 18:03.46 | mindjuju | lol |
| 18:23.40 | dataw0lf | I'll tell you what I am! I'm the damn pater familias! You can't marry him! |
| 18:24.40 | dataw0lf | "I had to be up at that there crossroads last midnight, to sell my soul to the devil." "Well, ain't it a small world, spiritually speaking. Pete and Delmar just been baptized and saved. I guess I'm the only one that remains unaffiliated." |
| 18:25.32 | Lone_Wanderer | "What was I supposed tell 'em, that you were sent to the penal farm and I divorced you from shame?" "Uh, I take your point. But it does put me in a damned awkward position vis-a-vis my progeny." |
| 18:26.13 | mindjuju | "Cows! I hate cows worse than coppers!" "Oh George, not the livestock!" |
| 18:26.39 | Lone_Wanderer | "Well ain't this place a geographical oddity! Two weeks from everywhere!" |
| 18:27.30 | dataw0lf | "I don't know Delmar. The blind are reputed to possess sensitivities compensating for their lack of sight, even to the point of developing paranormal psychic powers. Now clearly seeing into the future would fall neatly into that category; it's not so surprising that an organism deprived of it's earthly vision..." |

| 19:36.32 | mindjuju | just a cable that splits vga to two monitors? |
| 19:36.53 | Utah_Dave | I might have one here at work |
| 19:37.04 | mindjuju | really? |
| 19:37.15 | mindjuju | you work by me don't you? |
| 19:37.23 | Utah_Dave | not too far |
| 19:37.37 | Utah_Dave | I'd have to go search through all our mess of extra cables |
| 19:38.09 | mindjuju | really tierra? comes in handy when you have one compy but have 2 people looking at the monitor. |
| 19:39.08 | tierra | yeah, I don't doubt there's many times where something like that would come in handy, I'm slightly surprised myself that I've never seen one or thought about the existance of one... |
| 19:46.57 | Utah_Dave | mindjuju: I can't find it right off hand. |
| 19:47.09 | Utah_Dave | I have to go back to a stupid conference they're making us all attend today. |
| 19:47.11 | Utah_Dave | I'll look later |
| 19:51.18 | Lone_Wanderer | Perfect! |

| 19:52.28 | mindjuju | no worries utah_dave , thx for looking |
| 19:52.40 | Utah_Dave | np |
| 20:02.07 | swb | would this work? http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?pfp=cat3&product_code=50053118&Pn=2_Port_VGA_Video_Splitter |
| 20:03.12 | swb | dang, that page doesn't even work in ff, page only works in ie (at least for me) |
| 20:04.52 | mindjuju | that's technically what i'm looking for though they are "boosting the signal" for an extra $50 where i've seen cables handle it just fine |
| 20:06.45 | mindjuju | course though, i see in the descrip that the boost will carry the signal 210 feet. who wouldn't want their monitor to be 210 feet from the computer |
| 20:08.54 | macnewbold | your projector might be 210 feet away though.... |
| 20:09.11 | mindjuju | ~wiseguy macnewbold |
| 20:09.12 | jbot | ACTION runs up to macnewbold and pokes macnewbold in the eyes! |
| 20:09.12 | macnewbold | mindjuju: you might also check for a dual-output video card |
| 20:09.20 | macnewbold | for example, mine has vga and dvi |
| 20:09.27 | macnewbold | often you get the same output on both at the same time |
| 20:09.36 | macnewbold | so you just plug in two monitors and you're good to go |
| 20:09.44 | macnewbold | some have dual VGA out |
| 20:09.44 | mindjuju | well, the source is a laptop |
| 20:09.54 | macnewbold | also known as a dual-headed vga card or something |
| 20:09.56 | macnewbold | hm, |
| 20:10.11 | mindjuju | though, i am in the market for a dual head vga for home actually |
| 20:10.17 | macnewbold | on my laptop, I can look at the LCD screen and display the same thing on another monitor at the same time |
| 20:10.30 | macnewbold | but if you need two screens and the LCD, you'd need that cable probably :) |
| 20:11.39 | mindjuju | well, you can actually feed signal to an external vga and have the laptop screen going, i just saw it as ghetto, so was looking for something, but truth told, i didn't want to spend more than about 10 minutes looking for something |
| 20:11.58 | macnewbold | hehe |
| 20:11.58 | mindjuju | i think inthe end, if utah_dave desn't have something, i'll prolly just do the monitor / laptop solution |
| 20:11.59 | macnewbold | times up |

| 20:14.28 | mindjuju | nah, no worries. i've already spent too much time on it. i'll just tell those guys what for |

| 21:20.48 | jsmith-brb | Lone_Wanderer: Yeah, it'll probably be that way for a week or two |
| 21:21.18 | macnewbold | Lone_Wanderer: check with the companies that offer service for it. jsmith, who is your plan through? |
| 21:21.22 | tierra | mindjuju: you could try giving Universal Systems a call, they might: http://www.usicomputer.com/index.cfm |

| 21:22.09 | Lone_Wanderer | hmmmmm |
| 21:22.10 | macnewbold | and you have an e90 now? or an e07? |
| 21:22.15 | Lone_Wanderer | I know some people who work in Cingular's customer service. |
| 21:22.26 | Lone_Wanderer | Maybe I can ask them what horrible experience I have to have in order to get a significant discount on one. |

| 21:24.34 | macnewbold | and about how much would one expect to pay for an e60, e70, or e90, assuming they force a 2-year contract on you and give you a discount? |
| 21:25.44 | dataw0lf | tierra: ya, universal systems |
| 21:25.44 | jsmith | E60 is probably around $150-$200 on eBay, maybe a tad bit more |
| 21:25.44 | jsmith | E70 is more like $350-$400 on eBay |
| 21:25.56 | jsmith | E90 -- probably $800 (since it was just barely released, has two screens, etc.) |
| 21:26.12 | jsmith | The E61 is another good phone, but I'd hold out for the E61i |

| 22:54.39 | dataw0lf | it seems fairly obvious |
| 22:54.55 | dataw0lf | they have about the same amount of evidence against him as they did for O.J. |
| 22:55.32 | macnewbold | which means that he could get off? |
| 22:55.48 | dataw0lf | only if the cops completely screw up the case, and he's enormously rich. |
| 22:55.55 | dataw0lf | ohp, he's not. So, doubtful. |

| 23:27.54 | dataw0lf | ah, abusive behavior, apparently |
| 23:28.06 | dataw0lf | she got a restraining order against him |
| 23:28.23 | Lone_Wanderer | He must have been using too much perl. |
