| 06:51.46 | herlo | why? |
| 06:52.30 | Noticz | just not tired, wondering if anyone was up :) |
| 06:52.41 | herlo | well, maybe I am up |
| 06:53.23 | Noticz | you like penguins? |
| 06:53.32 | herlo | sure, they go fast |
| 06:54.36 | Noticz | haha, http://sexysexypenguins.com/ so that be yours then? |
| 06:54.43 | herlo | sure is |
| 06:56.28 | Noticz | funny name! |
| 06:56.57 | herlo | :) |
| 06:57.09 | Noticz | so u got work in the morning? |
| 06:57.19 | Noticz | or do you do your own thing? |
| 06:57.47 | herlo | well, I was just laid off on Monday |
| 06:57.52 | herlo | so I don't work |
| 06:58.01 | herlo | but I have my own gigs, just most of them are not money makers |
| 06:58.30 | Noticz | ahhh, well those are the fun ones then. The economy sucks but where did you work at? |
| 06:59.44 | herlo | Guru Labs |
| 06:59.56 | herlo | they let 5 of us go due to many factors |
| 07:01.16 | herlo | but they're a great company and they're gonna land on their feet. |
| 07:02.20 | Noticz | thats good, I do my own thing and it sucks having to let employees go :( which I might have to do in the next couple weeks |
| 07:06.18 | herlo | ugh! |
| 07:06.32 | herlo | but if you want to keep the business going, that's what you have to do |
| 07:08.24 | Noticz | yep sure is http://www.durangedesign.com |
| 07:19.45 | Noticz | yeah same here! |
| 07:20.06 | herlo | penguin quote for you |
| 07:20.10 | herlo | Some people have told me they don't think a fat penguin really embodies the grace of Linux, which just tells me they have never seen an angry penguin charging at them in excess of 100mph. They'd be a lot more careful about what they say if they had. |

| 16:47.22 | mgeary | hey jsmith |
| 16:47.23 | jsmith | mgeary: but haven't really taken the time to do much with it since... why? |
| 16:47.58 | mgeary | well, we've got a custom-built E-store for a client, and they basically want to transparently sell Amazon.com product alongside stuff that they fulfill |
| 16:48.22 | mgeary | before i spend a ton of time in Amazon's "Associate" web service apis, i wanted to get a reality check |
| 16:48.53 | mgeary | but i believe this particular feature is fairly new, so if your experience is a couple of years old, it may not apply... |
| 16:49.17 | jsmith | Correct... my experience does not apply |
| 16:49.28 | mgeary | what'd you do with them? |
| 16:49.52 | jsmith | Mostly just mine Amazon for data about the sales of my Asterisk book :-p |

| 17:00.50 | thebigdog | mgeary, what is your question? |
| 17:27.51 | carmony | good morning |
| 17:30.16 | mgeary | hey, thebigdog |
| 17:31.21 | mgeary | the ideal scenario would be that we show Amazon products in our custom store alongside 'local' products, we collect payment information, and we do a server-to-server transaction with Amazon to purchase the items for the customer. Not thinking that's going to happen, though |
| 17:33.23 | mgeary | yeah, there's a whole slew of issues like that |
| 17:34.08 | mgeary | the situation we've got is that while the custom E-store has been in development, the client has been using their Amazon referral account and just promoting Amazon products on their site |
| 17:34.23 | mgeary | but they aren't going to be able to carry all those products in their custom store |
| 17:34.39 | mindjuju | ah |
| 17:34.57 | mgeary | so it has the potential to become confusing when pitching products carried internally versus those carried by Amazon |
| 17:35.55 | mindjuju | i setup the amazon web referral account and everything for over here, it's been a ouple months though, but it seems like there were a LOT of constraits in the agreement about what was permissible and what wasn't |
| 17:36.09 | mindjuju | you may want to take a peak into that to see if Amazon would even allow |

| 18:51.25 | itimber | thebigdog is *the* networking guru of networking guru's |
| 18:54.12 | carmony | lol, k, I have an account firm that their current managed switch is starting to go out |
| 18:54.25 | carmony | accounting* |
| 18:54.39 | carmony | they need a 48 port web managed switch |
| 18:54.53 | carmony | I found one from Dell, but the boss wants a Cisco router |
| 18:55.00 | carmony | Not really sure how to find what I need |
| 19:01.27 | thebigdog | what are your requirements? |
| 19:01.30 | thebigdog | router or switch? |
| 19:02.12 | carmony | They have a switch right now |
| 19:02.47 | carmony | What advantages could I get from using a router? |
| 19:03.08 | mgeary | internal IPs, a layer of protection on your machines behind it |
| 19:03.23 | thebigdog | well they are both different |
| 19:03.30 | thebigdog | hence the question |
| 19:03.47 | thebigdog | you are talking router vs switch |
| 19:03.56 | thebigdog | cisco makes both and so do many companies |
| 19:04.13 | thebigdog | router is more sophisticated than a switch |
| 19:04.24 | _psychic_ | router might be overkill if all you really need is a swtich :) |
| 19:05.09 | thebigdog | and their is a price difference too |
| 19:05.49 | thebigdog | carmony, it might be that you just need a new switch |
| 19:07.19 | carmony | yeah |

| 19:12.49 | carmony | thanks thebigdog |
| 19:17.23 | carmony | Another question, if I have a gigabit switch, and a pc with a gigabit NIC, are there any special cables needed? |
| 19:18.26 | _psychic_ | cat 6 or at least 5e is nice |
| 19:19.41 | carmony | if someone put in the cables like 7 years ago, it wouldn't be cat 6, would it? |
| 19:20.01 | tierra | not likely, probably cat5 |
| 19:20.16 | carmony | k |
| 19:20.28 | tierra | cat5e and cat6 came out maybe 4-5 years ago I think |
| 19:21.28 | tierra | it usually says the rating/type on the cable itself |
| 19:21.38 | carmony | okay, I'll have to check it out |
| 19:24.31 | tierra | TIA/EIA-568-B was defined in 2001, so I guess it's possible that it's cat5e |
| 19:28.14 | fungus | carmony: even an ordinary cat5 cable can get you a gigabit link. But the nicer shielding and such in cat5e/cat6 could improve performance. |
| 19:28.28 | cycokilr | if you have access to a good tester, it can tell you if the cable tests okay for gigabit speeds.. |
| 19:28.37 | cycokilr | and cat 5e will work with gigabit.. |
| 19:32.14 | mindjuju | so, anybody know off hand if it is possible to build a CD ISO in php? I would have a standard set of files to include, plus a dynamically generated one, grab all files, make ISO and prompt user to downlaod |
| 19:39.13 | fungus | in php, no. Forking out a system call to mkisofs, yes. But it would be pretty slow. |
| 19:39.27 | mindjuju | yeah, i was just thinking that |
| 19:39.37 | mindjuju | it takes a while to build 'em even if the files are small |
| 19:39.43 | mindjuju | :( |
| 19:40.02 | fungus | If you could implement a good caching system, it might not be so bad. but depends on your dynamic variables. |
| 19:44.36 | DexterTheDragon | have people make a request, queue it up, then email them a link to download it when done |

| 22:10.10 | beandog | I'd be afraid it would blow up and take me with it. |
| 22:11.41 | beandog | ~takemewithyou |
| 22:13.00 | beandog | wow, there are no good movies out right now. |
| 22:14.24 | SunSparc | What? beandog, you are not a Twilight fan? |
| 22:14.38 | beandog | I already saw it |
| 22:14.52 | SunSparc | heh |
| 22:15.04 | mgeary | i thought Eagle Eye wasn't awful, and i've heard decent things about Australia |
| 22:15.48 | beandog | and Bolt, and 007, and WallE, and City of Ember, and The Dark Knight, and Eagle Eye, and Journey, and Get Smart |
| 22:15.58 | beandog | that leaves me with High School Musical and Mamma Mia |
| 22:16.07 | beandog | Both of which, I imagine, will leave me braindead. |
| 22:16.25 | beandog | Eagle Eye was freaking intense. |
| 22:17.23 | SunSparc | So, beandog, by "no good movies", you mean, "no good movies that I have not already seen". |
| 22:17.31 | beandog | SunSparc, right |
| 22:17.32 | beandog | heh |
| 22:17.37 | SunSparc | :) |
| 22:18.53 | thebigdog | beandog, i think you would enjoy Mamma mia...mindjuju said he loved every minute of it |
| 22:19.26 | beandog | historically, I do poorly with musicals. :T |
| 22:21.03 | beandog | it can't be any worse than the tween drama of twilight, though. |
| 22:21.14 | mgeary | the live Mamma Mia is awesome |
| 22:21.18 | mgeary | dunno about the movie |
| 22:22.23 | beandog | mgeary, whats up |
| 22:22.40 | mgeary | Rocky Mtn. Power is apparently coming to my house and cutting down a gazillion trees |
| 22:22.48 | mgeary | including about 18 fruit trees |
| 22:22.52 | PoeticIntensity | why? |
| 22:22.59 | mgeary | power lines overhead |
| 22:23.17 | PoeticIntensity | bah. |
| 22:23.19 | mgeary | but i'm not optimistic |
| 22:23.31 | mgeary | we've got about .5 acres of land, heavily-laden with trees |
| 22:23.42 | mgeary | this will nuke about half to 2/3 of all our trees |
| 22:23.50 | PoeticIntensity | your personally? |
| 22:23.53 | beandog | mgeary, its the new economy. Youre obviously stealing from hurting farmers by growing your own fruit. Rocky Mtn Power will fix that for you. |
| 22:23.58 | PoeticIntensity | er..... your trees on your personal property? |
| 22:24.01 | SunSparc | mgeary: Just suggest that they use Tesla coils to broadcast the power. |
| 22:24.01 | mgeary | yes |
| 22:24.08 | mgeary | PoeticIntensity: ^^ yes |
| 22:24.10 | PoeticIntensity | wow. |
| 22:24.18 | PoeticIntensity | that... uhh... sucks. |
| 22:24.21 | mgeary | they've got easments |
| 22:24.24 | beandog | that is poopy. |
| 22:24.26 | mgeary | i need to find out *exactly* what they say |
| 22:24.35 | fungus | Erg, speaking of Cisco. |
| 22:24.40 | PoeticIntensity | growing up, we had trees in our backyard for ..... probably a decade that had powerlines going directly through em'. |
| 22:24.44 | fungus | One of my core switches just failed. |
| 22:25.05 | PoeticIntensity | heh.... I climbed one of em' one day just to see if I could make it to the powerline... |
| 22:25.07 | PoeticIntensity | wasn't hard at all. |
| 22:25.08 | _psychic_ | It was a Cisco? |
| 22:25.10 | PoeticIntensity | thank heavens I didn't touch it. |
| 22:25.48 | fungus | Yup. Cisco 3550-48 Good thing I kept a spare on hand. |
| 22:25.55 | beandog | PoeticIntensity, http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/22/tn-games-impact-generating-fps-vest-goes-on-sale/ |
| 22:26.17 | carmony | man..... its only monday... and I feel like I need a weekend |
| 22:26.36 | PoeticIntensity | heh.. ... beandog - is it Linux compatibel? |
| 22:26.38 | PoeticIntensity | wow... |
| 22:36.20 | beandog | I need a vending machine right in my office. |
| 22:36.25 | beandog | that sells nothing but M&Ms |
| 22:36.31 | beandog | and dances |
| 22:38.08 | DexterTheDragon | and doesn't cost money |
| 22:38.23 | beandog | now that's just silly. |
| 22:38.39 | DexterTheDragon | * doesn't cost money for you |
| 22:40.28 | beandog | yah |
| 22:42.13 | beandog | score! I got plain *and* peanut :D |
| 22:43.19 | unum | the IT manager often has a very large bag of m&m on his desk |
| 22:47.27 | beandog | the world needs more managers like that. |
| 22:49.20 | SunSparc | Mmmmm... chocolate... |
| 22:56.18 | beandog | and peanuts! |
| 22:58.56 | beandog | mindjuju, whats your take on mamma mia |
| 22:59.43 | mindjuju | my wife saw it, but i haven't seen it |
| 23:00.09 | mindjuju | not really my cup of tea |
| 23:00.15 | beandog | whot? |
| 23:00.52 | beandog | thebigdog says you live and breathe by it. |
| 23:01.26 | mindjuju | if it isn't directored by burton or carpenter or that dude that did lethal weapon whose name eludes me right now - donner, i think, or music not by elfman, willimas, poledoris, or doesn't have Kurt Russell |
| 23:01.31 | mindjuju | then i prolly don't want to see it |
| 23:01.39 | beandog | Richard Donner |
| 23:01.47 | beandog | He did Superman and Superman II |
| 23:01.55 | mindjuju | yup, that's right |
| 23:02.18 | mindjuju | or i'll wait until it comes out on DVD |
| 23:02.21 | beandog | you have interesting movie prefrences. |
| 23:02.24 | fungus | Seeing Mamma Mia in theaters was the best theater experience I have had since the Star Wars movies |
| 23:02.31 | beandog | So LoTR doesnt fit in there? |
| 23:02.48 | mindjuju | i saw the first one in theater and the rest saw on DVD |
| 23:02.55 | mindjuju | they were fantasitic, don't get me wrong |
| 23:02.59 | beandog | fungus, yah? |
| 23:03.03 | beandog | Now I have to go see it. |
| 23:03.06 | beandog | Durnit. |
| 23:03.11 | mindjuju | but, was just too busy |
| 23:03.28 | orsonj | I had the advantage of not knowing what LoTR was until 3 months before the last one came out. |
| 23:03.35 | mindjuju | now IronMan, I did see, but that was my wife taking me to go see it as part of a date |
| 23:03.38 | fungus | yah, it was one of those experiences where the whole audience applauded and screamed after it was over |
| 23:03.38 | orsonj | no waiting in anticipation for two years |
| 23:04.04 | beandog | fungus, wow, thats pretty rare. |
| 23:04.11 | beandog | I do that after every Star Trek movie |
| 23:04.28 | fungus | Yeah, I've only had that experience with Star Trek and Star Wars |
| 23:04.28 | beandog | well, except Nemesis. that one sucked. |
| 23:04.33 | mindjuju | i did that during the end of Star trek 6 |
| 23:04.55 | fungus | First Contact was a great one, in terms of experience too. |
| 23:04.57 | beandog | orsonj, yah, Id never even read em either, so I got to see them as a new story. Pretty good way to go. |
| 23:04.57 | mindjuju | felt like major nerd |
| 23:05.15 | mindjuju | first contact was awesome |
| 23:05.16 | beandog | I thought Two Towers was about the most boring movie, evar, thouh. |
| 23:05.33 | mindjuju | The Line must be drawn Here! No further |
| 23:05.37 | beandog | mindjuju, yah |
| 23:05.46 | beandog | I got to see Star Trek IV when I was a kid in the theater :D |
| 23:05.49 | beandog | That was freaking awesome. |
| 23:05.58 | mindjuju | beandog - no doubt |
| 23:06.10 | beandog | that and Octopussy ... I think. Some Bond film. |
| 23:06.17 | beandog | Obviously not as memorable. |
| 23:06.22 | mindjuju | when they make that heat seeking missle and it blows up Christopher Plummer |
| 23:06.29 | mindjuju | I jumped up hootin' and hollerin' |
| 23:06.43 | beandog | mindjuju, that was 6 or ... something |
| 23:06.45 | beandog | or 5 |
| 23:06.51 | mindjuju | nope, 6 |
| 23:06.55 | mindjuju | 5 was the one with god |
| 23:07.06 | beandog | mindjuju, yah I meant 4 ... voyage home. whales! |
| 23:07.16 | beandog | I saw 5 and 6 in theaters. |
| 23:07.19 | mindjuju | 4 was FREAKIN' awesome |
| 23:07.20 | beandog | I about died watching #5 |
| 23:07.41 | SunSparc | I got one of my favorite quotes from #5 |
| 23:07.49 | mindjuju | beandog - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdSJFrhb-HM |
| 23:07.55 | beandog | Lets go to the midddle of the universe! Theres aliens! oh noes! They want our ship! who knew! how did they communicate with a vulcan halfway across the galaxy? who cares! |
| 23:07.58 | mindjuju | this is the best part of Star Trek 4 |
| 23:08.24 | beandog | mindjuju, heh, yah, apparently that was a real cop |
| 23:08.45 | mindjuju | course, this is second best - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUbZ8CHVCSE&feature=related |
| 23:09.04 | beandog | hellooooooo, computer |
| 23:09.13 | mindjuju | :) |
| 23:09.46 | mindjuju | i didn't notice before that is a Mac Scotty uses |
| 23:09.56 | beandog | heh |
| 23:09.58 | beandog | you can tell by the mouse |
| 23:10.03 | beandog | not to mention the butt ugly box design. |
| 23:10.29 | beandog | of course, all desktops back then looked like a cross between shag carpet and a wrecking ball. |
| 23:10.39 | mindjuju | rofl |
| 23:13.10 | beandog | mindjuju, did you like star trek 3 |
| 23:13.39 | mindjuju | the one with Christopher Lloyd? back to the future guy? |
| 23:13.45 | beandog | uh |
| 23:13.47 | beandog | yah |
| 23:13.50 | mindjuju | it was ok |
| 23:13.51 | beandog | search for spock |
| 23:13.53 | beandog | the giant slugs |
| 23:13.53 | mindjuju | but not fantastic |
| 23:25.02 | mindjuju | beandog - here is something to put a smile on your face - best TNG moment - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBTRp80Q64U |
| 23:25.38 | beandog | heh |
| 23:25.40 | beandog | Q++ |
| 23:25.45 | mindjuju | :) |
| 23:25.55 | beandog | There should be an entire series (or movie) just about Q |
| 23:26.37 | beandog | I think the best Q episode was with Voyager and the Civil War |
| 23:26.41 | mindjuju | maybe a movie, but a series would be hard |
| 23:26.55 | mindjuju | didn't see much voyager |
| 23:27.01 | beandog | ~shun mindjuju |
| 23:27.02 | jbot | You are dead to me, mindjuju. |
| 23:27.03 | mindjuju | though i did see the ones about speices 1234 |
| 23:27.07 | mindjuju | or what ever it was |
| 23:27.08 | beandog | 8472 |
| 23:27.13 | mindjuju | yeah, that's the one |
| 23:27.20 | mindjuju | with the fluidic space and such |
| 23:27.27 | beandog | that was some good stuff. |
| 23:27.31 | mindjuju | yeah |
| 23:30.08 | beandog | mindjuju, did you see the one where they created the fake starfleet |
| 23:30.27 | mindjuju | nope |
| 23:30.32 | mindjuju | i'm guessing its a voyager |
| 23:30.36 | beandog | see, youre missing out |
| 23:30.37 | beandog | :) |
| 23:30.39 | mindjuju | course, i didn't see alll of tng |
| 23:30.43 | beandog | a little janeway is good for the soul |
| 23:30.48 | beandog | just ask fungus |
| 23:30.54 | mindjuju | i did see the one with sarah silverman |
| 23:31.07 | beandog | who? |
| 23:31.42 | beandog | that q chick? |
| 23:32.02 | mindjuju | she was in an episode called Futures' s End |
| 23:32.30 | mindjuju | i was cleaning my office and watching, so didn't get to absorbe it all |
| 23:32.49 | beandog | hmm, sounds familiar |
| 23:33.07 | mindjuju | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Future%27s_End |
| 23:33.23 | beandog | oh, I thought it was TNG |
| 23:33.30 | mindjuju | she looks like this |
| 23:33.30 | mindjuju | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Sarahsilvermangfdl.PNG |
| 23:33.34 | mindjuju | it was meh |
| 23:34.19 | beandog | heh |
| 23:43.57 | carmony | anyone know of any good resources for free/cheap vector images? |
| 23:45.27 | mindjuju | istockphoto has a great selection, and resonable price |
| 23:54.18 | unum | openclipart.org if you are looking for free stuff |
| 23:57.29 | mindjuju | really depends on how picky you are and how exactly the picture needs to match the criteria |
| 23:57.49 | mindjuju | if your looking for free and matches really well, then chances are you'll be spending HOURS searching |
| 23:58.09 | mindjuju | its a trade off |
| 23:58.59 | unum | true |
| 23:59.10 | itimber | I'm out my brotha's.... catch ya later |
| 23:59.26 | unum | I'm often looking for just some graphic to put on a flier I'm handing out at church |
| 23:59.35 | unum | so something quick from openclipart is great |
| 23:59.48 | unum | but if I was doing something professional, I'd probably go istock |
| 23:59.49 | mindjuju | true |
