| 15:57.18 | mindjuju | isn't that what google runs for exchange compatibility? |
| 15:57.40 | fungus | I don't know. But moving them to Google will be easier than Zimbra. |
| 15:57.50 | mindjuju | ah true that |
| 15:57.51 | fungus | I've been working on it. I'm getting close. |
| 15:58.01 | mindjuju | we're actually working on making the jump to google also |

| 15:59.09 | macnewbold | IBC is da bomb |
| 15:59.20 | mindjuju | yeah it is, especially when it is crispy cold |
| 15:59.24 | macnewbold | fun to drink out of the bottle while driving too... :) |

| 16:00.25 | mindjuju | macnewbold, i actually have an old timey bottle opener mounted to the side of my desk for IBC bottles |
| 16:00.38 | mindjuju | its brass and says coca-cola |
| 16:00.48 | mindjuju | it adds to the experience |
| 16:03.18 | influx | I wonder what the bottle opener's family life is like. |

| 16:07.50 | SunSparc | ?!? |
| 16:08.21 | influx | There have been issues with the WD Green HDD though, no? |
| 16:08.26 | influx | Or are they fixed? |
| 16:08.54 | mindjuju | all hdd manufactors have had issues from time to time, i think it's more a lot issue than a model issue though |
| 16:10.13 | influx | Right. |
| 16:10.20 | influx | Ok. |
| 16:10.38 | mindjuju | here is the link though if you want to see |

| 16:10.42 | influx | That's a great price for a 2TB HDD. |
| 16:10.54 | mindjuju | seems like they've made some changes though |
| 16:11.01 | mindjuju | something called Advanced Format |
| 16:11.06 | mindjuju | i'm going to have to look into that |
| 16:11.11 | influx | I could get twice the capacity for a lot less than I paid when purchasing my Raptor. |
| 16:11.38 | influx | Wait a minute though. |
| 16:11.43 | influx | Western Digital. |
| 16:11.59 | influx | How's their build quality these days? |
| 16:12.25 | influx | -raptor, btw. wrong model name. |
| 16:12.42 | influx | Barracuda. |
| 16:13.19 | mindjuju | course, though, there are quiet the negative reviews on this particular model WD20EARS |
| 16:13.23 | mindjuju | the one that is on sale |
| 16:15.09 | mindjuju | this looks pretty swanky - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16899261004&nm_mc=EMC-IGNEFL060810&cm_mmc=EMC-IGNEFL060810-_-EMC-060810-Index-_-ToolsNetworkPCServiceAcc-_-99261004-LP4D |

| 16:19.44 | Utah_Dave | Hey, has anyone heard if Paul McCartney is good in concert? I'm thinking of taking my dad to go see him. |
| 16:20.46 | mindjuju | 2 people here went to the last one like 2 yrs ago, i think it was in NY |
| 16:20.57 | mindjuju | they didn't stop talking about it for like 4 months, no joke |
| 16:21.26 | mindjuju | course though, the DM :: Songs of Faith and Devotion tour, I wouldn't stop talking about that concert for, well, nm, i still talk about it |
| 16:21.56 | Utah_Dave | cool. |
| 16:22.18 | influx | You like Depeche Mode? |
| 16:22.33 | Utah_Dave | My dad took my brothers and me to see Bruce Springsteen 10 or 12 years ago and it was incredible. And I'm not really that big of a Springsteen fan |
| 16:22.53 | mindjuju | d00d, DM is the best |
| 16:23.19 | mindjuju | ^5 |
| 16:23.26 | mindjuju | i have 3 concert shirts left |
| 16:23.32 | influx | I'm so jealous of people who got to go to the final tour. |
| 16:23.38 | influx | My manager met members of the group. |
| 16:23.45 | influx | :O |
| 16:23.53 | mindjuju | that's cool! |

| 18:48.35 | mindjuju | when ever there has been a problem, they are clear about what happened, why it happened, and what they are doing so it doesn't happen again |
| 18:48.51 | mindjuju | engys are quick and willing to help |
| 18:49.49 | TuxToaster | any idea on what they have for fire suppression? |
| 18:50.03 | TuxToaster | didn't they just build a new DC not long ago for the stackable rollout? |
| 18:50.34 | mindjuju | hmm, you know, i'm not sure hwat they do for fire |
| 18:50.55 | mindjuju | luckily though, we do have us an esteemed member of the xmission team, mpxm_ |
| 18:51.22 | TuxToaster | yup :-) |
| 18:51.25 | mindjuju | though i think he's now just doing stackable, he prolly knows about fire suppresion at xmission |
| 18:51.56 | TuxToaster | yeah just trying to avoid a water-based system... one of the reasons we want to move out of the current one we're in |
| 18:52.13 | mindjuju | what's wrong with water and servers? |
| 18:52.17 | mindjuju | heh |
| 18:52.23 | TuxToaster | LOL |
| 18:52.46 | TuxToaster | quite a bit, especially when the system gets accidentally tripped and takes out a rack. |
| 18:52.57 | mindjuju | ouch |
| 18:53.08 | TuxToaster | but it's surprising how many places have sprinklers |
| 18:53.39 | TuxToaster | many are dual interlock dry-pipe, so they're a bit better suited, but still bad. |
| 18:54.43 | TuxToaster | I might drop an OT email to the list and see what I can dig up.. just looking for options for now |
| 18:56.09 | mindjuju | considering how much pashdown does for the community, i'm tempted to ask him to just go ahead and drag the fiber to my house so i can get on some of that |

| 19:21.20 | supernovia | alright, I'm gonna go make me a hot pocket |
| 19:21.24 | TuxToaster | macnewbold: it's funny... their specs online list everything but. |
| 19:21.35 | TuxToaster | macnewbold: but I think he called them and got an answer |
| 19:21.44 | TuxToaster | sounds like they use water :/ |
| 19:22.33 | macnewbold | the good news is that i've been in there since 2005 iirc and it's never gone off once |
| 19:22.56 | macnewbold | i've never even lost power or network to my stuff in that time due to anything XM's fault |
| 19:23.05 | macnewbold | though there was one incident where some did |
| 19:23.21 | macnewbold | and an idiot with his boxes near mine unplugged us once |
| 19:23.33 | TuxToaster | heh |
| 19:23.36 | TuxToaster | always fun. |
| 19:23.50 | TuxToaster | I personally like XM for the infrastructure, etc. |
| 19:23.59 | macnewbold | and they're dang close to my office |
| 19:24.13 | TuxToaster | but he's pushing for the fire suppression as he's lost an entire rack to water damage and had two other close calls |
| 19:24.38 | macnewbold | yikes |
| 19:24.44 | TuxToaster | yup. |
| 19:24.49 | macnewbold | how do you ahve two close calls on that? |
| 19:25.08 | TuxToaster | dunno... lol. I guess if it goes off in a nearby room or something. |
| 19:26.40 | TuxToaster | at least if a gas suppression system is accidentally tripped, it doesn't usually cause damage or downtime |
| 20:05.05 | SunSparc | For datacenters, gas is the best. Water is ridiculous and is only for human consideration. |
| 20:05.31 | SunSparc | Halon and the like is the way to go. |
| 20:06.12 | SunSparc | TuxToaster: Did you see my email comment about co-location? |
| 20:07.46 | SunSparc | Ah, you did. :) |
| 20:09.00 | *** join/#uphpu linuxR (~linuxR@adsl-84-227-65-37.adslplus.ch) |
| 20:10.16 | SunSparc | Seems like a security issue? I have not looked at security specifically but hosted options can be very secure. Even using the cloud, like on Amazon could provide quite a bit of security. |
| 20:11.01 | SunSparc | Still, if your needs are specific enough, then colo may be the only option. |
| 20:16.51 | fungus | SunSparc, Halon is bad. It kills people. |
| 20:17.08 | SunSparc | fungus: Datacenters are for computers, not for people. :) |
| 20:17.26 | fungus | and it's really bad for the environment. there are better alternatives. |
| 20:17.54 | SunSparc | I agree, that is why I said, "and the like". I know there are alternative, just could not think of the names off the top of my head. |
| 20:18.12 | SunSparc | There are actually some really effective ones that are still relatively safe. |
| 20:18.34 | SunSparc | I have considered including something like that when I build my own home. |
| 20:19.00 | fungus | Though all gas suppression systems are expensive. |
| 20:19.12 | SunSparc | I remember walking through a halon protected military datacenter in Germany. They had warnings all over the place. |
| 20:19.44 | SunSparc | Yeah, I am sure they are not cheap. |
| 20:19.56 | fungus | We just put in a fancy FM-200 system about 6 months ago. |
| 20:20.05 | SunSparc | In your house? |
| 20:20.13 | fungus | lol, no. at work. |
| 20:20.22 | SunSparc | heh, ok, cool. |
| 20:20.50 | SunSparc | Ah yes, Heptafluoropropane |
| 20:20.52 | fungus | Gas systems might be problematic at home. They have to be near airtight. |
| 20:21.13 | SunSparc | Yeah, any oxygen leaks could make them less effective. |
| 20:21.50 | fungus | not just that, it's got to keep the gas in too. |
| 20:22.12 | fungus | we had to do a bunch of work to get our datacenter in order for it. |
| 20:22.47 | SunSparc | Hmmm, good point. I did not know about that part. |
| 20:22.53 | SunSparc | But it makes good sense. |
| 20:23.11 | fungus | but, yeah. much better than water for sure. |
| 20:23.23 | SunSparc | Less damage at least. |
| 20:45.01 | TuxToaster | SunSparc: sorry I did... been back and forth on a few things today. :-) |
| 20:45.24 | SunSparc | :) no worries |
| 20:46.04 | TuxToaster | The security concern I mentioned I just didn't want to have on the mailing list :-) |
| 20:46.46 | SunSparc | Then don't mention it here either, this is logged. |
| 20:47.31 | TuxToaster | heh. true.... but it doesn't bother me as much. hehe. |
| 20:47.39 | SunSparc | :) |
| 20:47.40 | TuxToaster | we run a hosted airline reservation system. So we are under scrutiny by the TSA and DHS... plus connectivity to the DHS requires a specific VPN setup and hardware considerations. |
| 20:48.22 | TuxToaster | it's not a big deal really, just doesn't leave much flexibility as far as doing hosted setups |
| 20:49.35 | TuxToaster | as for halon killing people, that's why you don't just stand there when it goes off.... you get outta there. hehe |
| 20:51.03 | TuxToaster | I always thought it would be fun to have a room in my basement with a raised floor and fire suppression... |
| 20:51.46 | SunSparc | In a gas suppression system there are still ways to provide oxygen for humans, such as like airplane mask drops. |
| 20:51.56 | SunSparc | But if a person is unconscious, they are dead. |
| 20:53.08 | mindjuju | i hate being dead, it happened to me just last week |
| 20:53.18 | mindjuju | luckily i got a 1up mushroom just prior, so i was ok |
| 20:53.46 | SunSparc | mindjuju: Nice :) |
| 20:54.08 | SunSparc | I just hate being dead with a 13 second respawn time. |
| 20:54.17 | mindjuju | :) |
| 20:54.33 | mindjuju | yeah, and then there is always the chance that some noob is spawn camping for points |
| 20:54.43 | SunSparc | Grrrr |
| 20:55.15 | SunSparc | TuxToaster: It might be worth looking in to AWS security. |
| 20:55.26 | SunSparc | I try to avoid colo whenever possible. |
| 20:59.22 | TuxToaster | heh, given the fact we deal with airlines, I think having the masks dropdown would be funny. |
| 20:59.39 | TuxToaster | lol mindjuju |
| 20:59.46 | SunSparc | :) |
| 21:00.07 | TuxToaster | 13 sec respawn time sounds like someone plays Call of Duty. |
| 21:00.43 | mindjuju | TF2 is where the fun is at |
| 21:00.49 | TuxToaster | TF2? |
| 21:02.30 | mindjuju | team fortress 2 |
| 21:02.46 | mindjuju | http://www.teamfortress.com/ |
| 21:02.49 | SunSparc | TuxToaster: You know it! I got my first star last week. |
| 21:03.16 | SunSparc | TF2 is awesome, but I have not been able to tear myself away from MW2 for so long. |
| 21:03.28 | SunSparc | Though I did log into my Quake Live account this morning. |
| 21:03.42 | TuxToaster | we play MW2 here at the office quite often |
| 21:03.57 | mindjuju | never played quake, i was more of a duke nukem fan |
| 21:03.58 | TuxToaster | I don't have it at home yet... wife doesn't want me playing it around the kid |
| 21:04.09 | SunSparc | TuxToaster: Sweet! We used to play religiously, but now it is rare. |
| 21:05.10 | TuxToaster | yeah we hit a lul or get finished with a project, and the boss pipes up "Who wants to kill some juggernauts??" |
| 21:05.20 | mindjuju | that's never happened here |
| 21:05.37 | mindjuju | though i did build a MAME comp into a crash cart |
| 21:05.45 | TuxToaster | LOL |
| 21:05.49 | TuxToaster | that's awesome |
| 21:05.55 | mindjuju | :) |
| 21:06.09 | SunSparc | mindjuju: pics? |
| 21:06.12 | TuxToaster | "hmm... I think .21 is down. I'd better go check on it, back in an hour." |
| 21:06.23 | mindjuju | yup |
| 21:06.46 | mindjuju | i should take a pic, but it'd just look like a crash cart |
| 21:06.57 | SunSparc | heh |
| 21:07.00 | mindjuju | hidden into the obvious, it's overlooked |
| 21:07.08 | SunSparc | Nice |
| 21:07.17 | TuxToaster | at my last job my office was inside of the server room, so no one would have thought anything of it. |
| 21:07.26 | mindjuju | :) |
| 21:07.36 | influx | unum: Think I could get away with installing an xbox in the old night guys' office? |
| 21:08.11 | TuxToaster | FWIW though, HVAC vents do not lend well to flying R/C helicopters around the room. |
| 21:08.11 | TuxToaster | if it got too close to the floor it would take off in a side drift |
| 21:08.21 | DexterTheDragon | mindjuju: check this. mashup of Daft Punk, Slayer, Pussycat Dolls, and Limp Bizkit (language warning) http://www.mi-tracks.com/artists/djschmolli/tunes/04.DJ_Schmolli_-_Don't_Cha_Take_A_Robot_Around_South_Of_Heaven.mp3 |
| 21:08.49 | TuxToaster | influx: modded? |
| 21:09.06 | SunSparc | TuxToaster, mindjuju: Steam username? I will add you. |
| 21:09.37 | influx | Nah. |
| 21:09.44 | influx | TuxToaster: ^ |
| 21:09.50 | influx | It would be dedicated to MW2. |
| 21:10.08 | TuxToaster | SunSparc: I've actually never used Steam... |
| 21:10.40 | fungus | ~Steam++ |
| 21:10.46 | SunSparc | ~Steamm++ |
| 21:10.46 | fungus | ~Steam for mac++ |
| 21:10.53 | SunSparc | Amen to that. |
| 21:11.03 | TuxToaster | influx: ah. We actually had a modded one in our breakroom so we could play emulators on it as well |
| 21:11.18 | TuxToaster | I thought the Mac version had issues. |
| 21:11.27 | fungus | nope |
| 21:11.29 | TuxToaster | always seeing complaints on TUAW about issues with it |
| 21:11.34 | SunSparc | Mac version has been working brilliantly for me. |
| 21:11.35 | TuxToaster | could just be lusers though. hehe |
| 21:11.46 | fungus | I saw a report from Valve that said Portal is actually more stable than the windows version |
| 21:11.50 | SunSparc | Though I have seen a problem in Portal with not being able to see through some portals. |
| 21:12.58 | TuxToaster | ok correction, most of these complaints we got were on things like it not working with certain video cards. meh. |
| 21:13.15 | TuxToaster | looks like I'll have to try it on my hackintosh |
| 21:14.44 | SunSparc | :) |
| 21:21.27 | mindjuju | hmmm |
| 21:21.42 | mindjuju | was just handed a "get motivated" ticket for a seminar tomorrow |
| 21:21.49 | TuxToaster | Steam's site is weird. Took a bit to figure out where to get the download from. |
| 21:21.52 | mindjuju | but that will remove me from the internet all day |
| 21:22.06 | TuxToaster | lol. I'll be there too... |
| 21:22.17 | mindjuju | i hear there are no laptops |
| 21:22.18 | mindjuju | that's nuts |
| 21:22.21 | mindjuju | what's up with that |
| 21:22.33 | mindjuju | what do you take notes on, your hand? |
| 21:22.48 | TuxToaster | dunno. I didn't hear that part. |
| 21:22.54 | TuxToaster | wonder if they'd block iPads... hehe |
| 21:22.56 | mindjuju | i just called |
| 21:23.45 | mindjuju | no food, no water, no laptops |
| 21:24.06 | TuxToaster | wow. draconian. |
| 21:24.10 | influx | no lights, no music |
| 21:24.18 | TuxToaster | no telephone. |
| 21:24.23 | TuxToaster | no electricity. |
| 21:24.28 | mindjuju | well, he did say iPhone was ok |
| 21:24.30 | influx | no 4th amendmen trights |
| 21:24.33 | TuxToaster | lol |
| 21:24.44 | mindjuju | course, they say it's because they don't want to have recording devices present |
| 21:24.56 | mindjuju | but it seems likely that an iphone would work great to record |
| 21:25.04 | mindjuju | so there is a big hole right there |
| 21:25.06 | influx | It does an okay job if you have a decent mic. |
| 21:25.25 | influx | I recorded a DefCon talk with just my iPhone. It did pretty well. |
| 21:25.26 | TuxToaster | the iPhone 4 would be even better. |
| 21:25.29 | mindjuju | i bought mac headphones with mic for the ipod touch i bought |
| 21:25.30 | influx | Yep. |
| 21:26.15 | mindjuju | you know the sad thing tuxtoaster, i here even the VIP section is hard seat |
| 21:26.16 | influx | Did you get the cool sunglasses with reflective strips inside so that you can see who's behind you? |
| 21:26.31 | mindjuju | i never had glasses like those, but i've seen them |
| 21:26.35 | TuxToaster | lol |
| 21:26.53 | TuxToaster | I think those would drive me nuts |
| 21:27.44 | mindjuju | so tuxtoaster, are you bringing your laptop? i mean, what if you traxxed your way down there, what would you do with ith? |
| 21:27.56 | mindjuju | i wonder if they'll have wifi though? |
| 21:28.31 | TuxToaster | probably not. I don't feel like lugging my backpack around. |
| 21:28.49 | TuxToaster | I'll probably just take my iPad and they can deal with it. |
| 21:29.00 | mindjuju | yeah, true that |
| 21:29.02 | herlo | and have them follow those instructions... |
| 21:29.20 | herlo | or use the recording for their own purposes... |
| 21:29.27 | TuxToaster | if they don't have wifi I won't be able to do anything but take notes anyways. |
| 21:29.28 | herlo | and be trusted not to do anything too crazy with it |
| 21:29.28 | mindjuju | what if the speaker goes borning and starts to drone? what am i going to do? |
| 21:29.37 | beandog | sleep |
| 21:29.43 | TuxToaster | get Voices.app and change their voice. |
| 21:29.49 | herlo | option |
| 21:29.54 | mindjuju | if (backpack == true) {getCalvinandHobbes()} |
| 21:29.57 | herlo | oh wait, you're using an iphone :( |
| 21:30.06 | herlo | no tethering |
| 21:30.15 | herlo | unless you jailbreak :/ |
| 21:31.30 | herlo | lol |
| 21:32.23 | mindjuju | well, the truth of the matter is that i'm already motivated to do the things that I do, so more motivation is like overcharging a battery, it's just not effective |
| 21:32.35 | mindjuju | and since we're not sitting together as a company ... |
| 21:33.02 | TuxToaster | hehe |
| 21:33.27 | TuxToaster | herlo: tethering is on the way |
| 21:33.44 | herlo | TuxToaster: what about gps navigation with google navigation? |
| 21:33.51 | herlo | or google talk? |
| 21:33.55 | herlo | voip? |
| 21:34.02 | TuxToaster | I didn't say they added anything else... :P |
| 21:34.03 | herlo | any of these awesome features that won't use your minutes?? |
| 21:34.09 | herlo | lol, I know... |
| 21:34.18 | TuxToaster | AT&T sucks. |
| 21:34.30 | herlo | duh |
| 21:34.35 | cro | Ticks me offâAT&T will charge an extra $20 to tether even though they will cap bandwidth. "here, let's charge you more money so we can charge you more money." |
| 21:35.15 | beandog | yay, monopolies! |
| 21:35.19 | utahcon | cro: Tmobile |
| 21:35.23 | utahcon | :D |
| 21:35.26 | beandog | capitalism++ |
| 21:35.36 | beandog | down with regulation! |
| 21:35.37 | cro | utahcon: I would if I could. |
| 21:35.37 | utahcon | although it ticks me off that Tmo charges $10 extra for "Android" access |
| 21:35.41 | herlo | cro: you can |
| 21:35.46 | herlo | there's always a choice |
| 21:35.52 | cro | HopeKids pays the bill. :-) |
| 21:36.06 | cro | we all have to be on ATT |
| 21:36.08 | herlo | utahcon: since when?? |
| 21:37.22 | mindjuju | cool, if i'm not 100% motivated by the event, i get my money back |
| 21:37.33 | mindjuju | SCORE!!! i didn't pay for anything so i make money!! |
| 21:37.42 | mindjuju | course, i'd make more by being in my office sleeping |

| 21:56.51 | mindjuju | that's sad |
| 21:57.06 | mindjuju | if you read far enough down, what they say about zig ziglar is sad |
| 21:57.20 | mindjuju | my mom used to buy his tapes, so i've heard his stuff as a boy |
| 21:57.39 | mindjuju | sounds like he's barely there mentally now, at least from the standpoint of one of the reviewers |
| 21:57.44 | TuxToaster | I like the first one... they oversold it |
| 22:00.45 | mindjuju | oh wow, it's to be expected, but this is AWESOME |
| 22:01.01 | mindjuju | so here they quote NYTimes |
