03:47.40Supaplexthat's better than a bouncing laptop. . .
03:47.48decriptor_how very true
03:57.41herlohas anyone here ever rolled out moinmoin?
03:57.50herloI seem to be really dense and can't quite get it going...
03:58.13Supaplexwould it work better in the morning?

03:59.36ibotUse ~dict for definitions.
03:59.42Supaplex~dict moin
03:59.47herlojsmith: is correct
03:59.51Supaplexlame bot!
04:00.36herloibot: moin is http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinWiki
04:00.36ibot...but moin is already something else...
04:00.42Supaplex~moin
04:00.43ibotfrom memory, moin is North German for everything you would say for salutatory
04:00.50herloibot: moin is also http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinWiki
04:00.51ibotherlo: okay
04:00.57herlo~moin
04:00.58iboti guess moin is North German for everything you would say for salutatory, or http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinWiki
04:01.03Supaplexno, that's moinmoin. *grumble*
04:01.17herloSupaplex: the fedora package is actually moin
04:01.32Supaplexahh I see.
04:01.39herlo~moinmoin
04:01.40iboti heard moinmoin is a wiki wiki written in Python with lots of nifty features.  See http://moin.sourceforge.net/
04:01.43Supaplexwhich remindors me.

04:02.05ibottimriker <n=timr@pdpc/supporter/bronze/TimRiker> was last seen on IRC in channel #bzflag, 4h 7m 15s ago, saying: 'Winny: can you put the teleporter behind the text?'.
04:02.41leviHeh, my stats textbook has an example that graphs the median income against the birthrate for all 50 states.
04:03.30leviThe curve is totally flat, but there's this one outlier that's got a way higher birthrate than any other.
04:03.45leviAny guesses which state it is?
04:04.28herlouh, Florida?
04:04.31herlo:)
04:04.42Supaplexhawaii
04:04.46herlooh wait! that's Old People rate!
04:05.08herloHawaii?  That's got the highest Island rate in the US
04:05.39Supaplexwell, since pashdown isn't in congress, I'll say congress at present, because there's lots of whiney babys that are thick as rocks ;)
04:06.03herloas in Vancouver, BC
04:06.08Supaplexmexico? oh wait, are they one of our states yet? ;)
04:06.20leviNo, silly people, it's Utah. :)
04:06.27Supaplexwe know...
04:06.33leviI know you know.
04:08.02herloWhat!?  (I want to use the interrobang, but don't know how)
04:08.18herlohttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interrobang
04:10.30leviIsn't it ?!
04:11.00leviWith the interrogatory before the bang?!
04:13.35herlolevi: they're actually overlayed
04:14.33herlolevi: but writing them out, it might be your way, never really looked, was futzing around looking for proof of an explanation why the ! is called "bang"
04:14.49herloand I came across the interrobang
04:15.24jsmithherlo: Because the "shebang" wouldn't be the same without the bang
04:16.50herlojsmith: someone actually pointed out that the original reason it was called bang was that old typewriters would make a loud "bang" sound when the ! was typed.  I wanted proof
04:17.15herlothere is evidence to support that typesetters used bang
04:17.19RyanEold typewriters made a loud bang whenever *ANY* key was typed...
04:17.46herloRyanE: I agree, but it was apparently a particularly old typewriter and the ! was louder
04:17.50RyanEIt's likely you would just notice it at the end of a sentence when you're also holding down the blasted shift key.
04:18.09herloRyanE: could be
04:18.29RyanEIf you recall, you had to hold the shift key like 3/4" down, which, when I learned as a child, was a pain.
04:18.32herloRyanE: it could also be related to typesetting rather than typewriters...
04:18.55RyanEIf I remember, I'll ask my Dad.  He was a typesetter for 20 years.
04:18.56herlowhich seems to make more sense actually.
04:19.21RyanEand still runs the Linotype at the Crandall Historical Printing Museum in Provo.
04:19.23herloRyanE: so you know why they call the spacing between lines "leading" then ey...
04:19.39RyanEyeah, with real hot lead.
04:19.47herloyuppers
04:20.10herlowhen you work in the newspaper business for any length of time, these things come out...
04:20.31RyanEherlo: you seen a Linotype work?  Freakin' amazing machine.
04:20.45RyanEbasically a Rube Goldberg machine, but one that does something useful.
04:21.40herloRyanE: never seen one actually.  I'll have to go by the museum sometime
04:21.58herlomaybe I'll go about the time you come to the next game night... :)
04:22.10RyanEit's awesome.  Dad'll even make you a Line of type with your name on it.
04:22.18herloSWEET!
04:22.42RyanEThat could likely be arranged.
04:22.42fozzmoo"Fozziliny George Moo" for me
04:22.53fozzmoo;-)
04:22.53herloexactly
04:23.18RyanEfozzmoo: I'm not sure that'll fit on one line...  :)
04:23.29fozzmooherlo: Twiki?
04:23.33herlofozzmoo: no
04:23.40fozzmooherlo: TWiki!
04:23.43herlo~twiki
04:23.44ibotwell, twiki is 10 01Web based collaboration tool. URL: http://twiki.org/
04:24.00fozzmooPowered by Perl, of course.
04:24.01herlofozzmoo: does it do acls?
04:24.07fozzmooI think so.
04:24.07herlofozzmoo: does it support ldap?
04:24.14fozzmooUhm... I don't remember. Probably.
04:24.16herlofozzmoo: does it provide an easier installer
04:24.21herlothan moinmoin
04:24.26fozzmooThat I can't answer.
04:24.31herloor easier than MediaWiki?
04:24.35fozzmooInstallation is pretty straightforward, tho.
04:24.46fozzmooNever installed MediaWiki.
04:25.03fozzmooTene told me the underlying PHP code was... nightmarish...
04:25.10fozzmooOf course, he wasn't fond of PHP code to begin with.
04:25.48herlofozzmoo: mediawiki is pretty simple, just requires one db and to unzip a directory structure.  I saw many of the features of moinmoin and thought it'd be easy.  But I feel very stupid right now trying to get it to work...
04:26.03herloI've been at it for three days almost
04:26.55herlophp seems to be easy to deploy compared with python and perl... which is why I think a lot of people deploy apps that use php...
04:27.07herlonot that python or perl are all that hard
04:27.11herlonormally
04:27.37fozzmooProblem I've found with a lot of PHP apps is the installation instructions start with, "chmod 777 /some/directory"
04:27.43fozzmooI don't like that!
04:27.49herlofozzmoo: most don't really say that
04:28.14fozzmooAnd then they have these silly web-based installers.
04:28.16herloits more that people suggest it in comments and what not.  
04:28.21fozzmooThere's that too.
04:28.24herlooh, web based installers are the best!
04:28.52herloI hate doing command line installing when its literally two clicks on a web browser and I'm done.
04:29.16herlounless its one command on the commandline, its *not* better to do it on the command line
04:29.25herloand so far, its been more than one command
04:29.47fozzmooMost web installers still need write access.
04:29.52fozzmoothat frightens me.
04:29.58fozzmooBut then, I'm easily frightened.
04:30.18herlothey only need write access for a few moments.  
04:30.33herlobesides, how would you do it in command line? SUID?
04:30.35RyanEyeah, as soon as they rm -rf .*, they don't need it anymore... :)
04:30.55herloRyanE: huh?
04:31.01RyanEnevermind...
04:31.11fozzmooRyanE: :-D
04:31.25herloRyanE: that command wouldn't get run from a web installer
04:31.36RyanEherlo: you certainly hope... :)
04:31.38fozzmooherlo: You hope not. :)
04:31.53herloholy crap!  You guys *are* ultra paranoid!
04:32.12RyanEnaw, I've used web installers, as long as the app is well-known.
04:32.20herloI mean, sure write access is a concern, but how hard is it to run chmod -R a-w ?
04:32.22RyanEI'm just kidding.  I love worst-case scenarios.
04:32.37herlo~lart RyanE
04:32.37ibotgives RyanE a "free" copy of Windows and then charges double for "Upgrades"
04:33.00fozzmooTWiki has some web install stuff. There are a couple files that need to be apache writable.
04:33.14RyanEherlo: if Games Night was *every* week, I'd have twice as many chances to not come... :)
04:33.24fozzmooBest thing to do is limit access to the configure CGI to only trusted IPs.
04:37.46herloRyanE: exactly, so why make it *every* week when you're already not coming
04:38.07herlofozzmoo: I'll give it a look.  Have you set it up before?
04:38.13RyanEherlo: well, we *do* know that it's all about *meeeeee*...

19:10.24leviThis fact has caused me all sorts of grief and frustration because I wasn't aware of it.
19:10.37leviMy LLDP packets were getting silently dropped, and I had no idea why.
19:11.15leviIt's because MAC addresses in a certain range are specified to not be forwarded by layer 2 bridges.

22:49.33SorenStoutnerMicrosoft could sell most people a dead horse.
22:49.44SorenStoutner(They do every day)  :)
22:50.44sontekThey also sell lots of good products
22:51.03sontekSQL Server, Visual Studio, Office, .NET, tec.
22:51.04sjansenokayish products that survived long enough people forgot there were better
22:51.06sontektec = etc.

22:51.47tensaiI would eat dead horse
22:51.54tensailive horse, no
22:51.56sonteksjansen: with the exception to .net, all of those products are better than their open source equivalent
22:51.57orbitMcDonalds has an interest in keeping SCO around.
22:52.06tensaiI hear that horse sushi is popular
22:52.11orbitAnd as long as such customers remain around, SCO will probably still be kicking.
22:52.15sjansensontek: Who said we have to limit ourselves to OSS?
22:52.28sonteksjansen: ok, what product(s) beat those? =)
22:52.34sjansenSQL Server < Oracle
22:52.44Jayce^orbit, doesn't display anything for me
22:52.50beandogsql server sucks big time.
22:52.56tensaiSQL Server < large stack of 3x5 index cards
22:52.59sjansenVisual Studio (okay, I'll grant it's some fantastic crack)

22:53.08beandoglol tensai
22:53.10sonteksjansen: I prefer SQL Server, but I think that competition is more of a preference thing than an actual one is better than the other
22:53.10brac[Whither SCO?]
22:53.11orbitok, try that.
22:53.18sjansenOffice < Word Perfect (back when they had market share)
22:53.23sontektensai: you've obviously never used SQL Server =)
22:53.35*** join/#utah decriptor_ (n=decripto@137.65.56.34)
22:53.39tensaisontek: au contraire. I get to use it only too much.
22:53.47sonteksjansen: I remember word perfect sucking, but if I remember correctly, office did suck more back then :p
22:53.58beandogI miss WordPerfect for DOS
22:54.03beandoglets go back to the good ol days
22:54.26sontekbut then we wont have clipart!
22:54.33sontekThe world wouldn't survive without clipart
22:54.52sontektensai: are you using it wrong? :P
22:55.08sontektensai: you can't hate on SQL Server for someones poor database design
22:55.25beandogIf you use WordPerfect for DOS, you almost certainly should not buy a Windows Vista computer and you almost certainly should not upgrade your computer to Windows Vista.

22:55.33brac[WordPerfect for DOS Updated]
22:55.36sjansenYou can hate on SQL Server for not being reliable enough to run for more than 24 hours under load.
22:56.05*** join/#utah neybar (n=jalance@pollux.northsky.com)
22:57.09sjansenYou can also hate on SQL Server for only running on a single platform.
22:57.14goozbachor filling a drive with 1.3 GB of transaction logs in just under 3 hours
22:59.12orbitgoozbach: I'd think any transactional db would do that if you pushed enough changes at it...
22:59.56beandogI save time *and* cpu by not logging at all1
23:00.00beandog!!zonee
23:00.01UtahBotbeandog: Error: "!zonee" is not a valid command.
23:00.01beandog:)
23:00.05beandogbuh
23:00.14goozbachorbit: it shouldnt do that if there is only 700M of disk
23:00.30SorenStoutnerOr because everytime you think about needing an upgrade you hear a sucking sound as Microsoft empties the contents of your wallet, your boss's wallet, and anyone else's wallet who happens to be unlicky enough to be standing outside your building.

23:36.08Tene~ntp
23:36.09ibotntp is probably Network Time Protocol, and a public NTP server is pool.ntp.org
23:36.52leviTene: I have ntp running.  This 'drift' is too much for it to handle.
23:37.23leviThere is some vmware utility or something that can fix this, but at some point it stopped working and I don't recall what I did to get it working in the first place.
23:37.25Tenelevi: set a cron job to explicitly run ntpdate
23:37.29Teneobviously
23:37.35*** part/#utah orbit (n=hanksdc_@pollux.northsky.com)
23:39.13leviThe ntpdate crontab is not a great solution either, IIRC.
23:39.28TeneNo, it's really not.  It wasn't a serious suggestion.
23:40.14leviLast time I started playing with the vmware tool install script, it killed my network connection.
23:40.24leviSo I'm not going to play with it until I'm at the console. :)
23:55.09leviHrm, that's why I don't have them installed.  The source for the required kernel modules that I have won't compile.
