04:30.44 | tristanbob_ | eightyeight, I know the email system is not very powerful, but we are investigating email in the cloud which will greatly improve things |
04:30.59 | tristanbob_ | eightyeight, but if you want to vent, I can forward the email to the email admin |

19:49.49 | vontrapp | my father in law wants to extend his wireless range to reach upstairs better |
19:50.20 | vontrapp | he's requested a range extender by name, but how does such a thing compare to just using WDS bridge mode? |
19:53.01 | vontrapp | for example, does WDS use separate frequencies and allow full duplexing of signals to maintain full speed? |
19:54.28 | vontrapp | i guess that would in part depend on the particular router[s] involved, two routers each with only one transceiver could not do it |
19:54.51 | vontrapp | but is it possible, with a dual-transceiver unit, to do WDS full speed? |
19:59.05 | vontrapp | actually, i also recall that he has some cat5 going to the upstairs, so simply plugging in a second router up there would achieve at least as good as the range extender |
19:59.23 | vontrapp | could i make it so both routers do the same ssid but perhaps on different frequencies? |
20:10.51 | eightyeight | goozbach: i agree |
20:11.09 | eightyeight | ibot used two spaces between full stops instead of just one |
20:11.24 | eightyeight | surely, a bot would know it's typography |

20:20.58 | sontek | Tene: I wasn't aware of that as an option |
20:26.11 | Tene | Migs: Usually, at least. I'm sure I've occasionally streamed video using something else. |
20:27.56 | Tene | Migs: I was on tinychat last night with some friends, and I know I've done video on skype before, so no, you're right, not always. |

21:58.34 | mheath_ | Does anyone here have much experience with local IT recruiting companies? I'm looking for a new job, but most of the compatible job postings seem to be ones posted by recruiters, and I'm a bit nervous dealing with those types of groups. |
21:58.48 | goozbach | mheath_: Coraid is hiring |
21:58.56 | goozbach | if you want to try Athens GA out |
21:58.59 | goozbach | :) |
21:59.13 | mheath_ | Heh, I wouldn't mind it too much. |
21:59.29 | mheath_ | But I need to find a senior NOC / Helpdesk position, to get something good that I am qualified for. |
21:59.47 | goozbach | speaking of which... we're looking for web designers, javascript gurus, QA doods, C developers, and soforth |
22:00.17 | mheath_ | Unfortunately I don't have enough programming experience (at least officially on paper) to be qualified for a position like that :( |
22:00.36 | goozbach | you don't need to know about programming to be QA |
22:00.41 | goozbach | just how to break stuff |
22:00.44 | Migs | So you want a senior job without having the qualifications for a senior position? |
22:01.05 | Migs | and what does "officially on paper" mean? |
22:01.13 | Migs | either you have the qualifications or you don't |
22:01.14 | mheath_ | Migs, What? No, I have the qualifications for a senior position. Just as a NOC / higher tier helpdesk analyst, etc |
22:01.20 | mheath_ | Not as a programmer. |
22:01.57 | Migs | ah, okay |
22:02.01 | mheath_ | I even have "senior" in my job title at the moment. I just realized that my company pays horribly. The compensation and benefits aren't remotely competitive, and I'm feeling screwed out of advancement opportunities. |
22:02.22 | Migs | yeah, that's how it was at my old job. |

23:52.13 | vontrapp | is there no way to get symlinks to work over NFS? |
23:52.34 | vontrapp | no option to have NFS resolve them on the server side and export it as if it were a regular directory or file? |
23:52.38 | macnewbold | vontrapp: are you having troubles with symlinks over NFS? I've always been able to use them |
23:52.41 | macnewbold | ah |
23:52.43 | macnewbold | like that |
23:53.22 | vontrapp | even having nfs work with --bind mounts would be a step up |
23:53.35 | macnewbold | not on the server side like that, afaik - hardlinks work, for files at least, but not across filessystems, but you don't have to be exporting the whole fs |
23:53.36 | vontrapp | but ideally, i want to tangle NFS with autofs, so symlinks are kindof a must in that case |
23:54.08 | vontrapp | why isn't there an option to allow NFS to cross fs lines? |
23:54.38 | vontrapp | macnewbold: well, you can't hardlink across filesystems |
