12:39 <@Jagobah> !
12:50 <@ShadowHntr> sup?
13:07 < AstralSin> huh, firefox 3b5 pukes on my valid rss feed
13:07 <@ShadowHntr> rc1 killed all my addons
13:07 <@ShadowHntr> rc1 is out
13:08 < AstralSin> most of my addons were dead with 3b5
13:08 < AstralSin> yeah, i saw
13:08 < AstralSin> i would install it but i'm lazy, i'll let the apt repos get it then i'll upgrade :)
13:09 <@ShadowHntr> heh
13:09 <@ShadowHntr> can't stand ubuntu
13:09 <@ShadowHntr> i must be the only one in the universe that doesn't think ubuntu is the best thing since beer in a bottle ;P
13:09 < AstralSin> i think its great
13:09 < AstralSin> some people gripe that they can't use ubuntu like they use other linux distros but i've never had a problem with it
13:09 <@ShadowHntr> opensuse here
13:10 < AstralSin> i use it the same way i use anything else
13:10 < AstralSin> i hate suse
13:10 <@ShadowHntr> i grew up on slackware
13:10 < AstralSin> slackware pisses me off
13:10 <@ShadowHntr> and compiled everything from source.
13:10 <@ShadowHntr> call me oldschool.
13:10 <@ShadowHntr> i didn't mind taking an hour to compile my kernel when 2.2 came out.
13:10 <@ShadowHntr> i tried ubuntu with hoary hedgehog
13:10 < AstralSin> you're basically forced out of using gnome with slackware, you can install one of the 3rd party gnome distributions for slack but then you have a bunch of other shit to re-upgrade
13:11 <@ShadowHntr> took me over a full day of continuous downloads on dialup trying just to get NIS and NFS support for the system
13:11 <@ShadowHntr> so i gave up and installed slackware instead.
13:11 < AstralSin> dude, ubuntu has evolved *alot* since then
13:11 <@ShadowHntr> yeah, but first impressions...
13:11 <@ShadowHntr> :P
13:11 < AstralSin> hoary is OLD
13:11 < AstralSin> fuck first impressions
13:11 <@ShadowHntr> i tried it
13:11 <@ShadowHntr> when it was new.
13:12 < AstralSin> you have to keep an open mind with free software, you cant try something once 5 years ago and decide that it sucks forever
13:12 <@ShadowHntr> i didn't say it sucked
13:12 <@ShadowHntr> it's just not for me.
13:13 < AstralSin> i tend to at least try each new release for the major distros when they come out
13:13 < AstralSin> suse, fedora, ubuntu
13:13 <@ShadowHntr> i'd like to try out the newer fedora releases.
13:13 < AstralSin> havent tried fedora 9 yet, i've heard nothing but good things though
13:13 < AstralSin> and classically, i hated fedora
13:13 <@ShadowHntr> i'm desktop environment agnostic. don't really care which one i use as long as it works.
13:14 < AstralSin> i despised 7 and before
13:14 <@ShadowHntr> i've had good experiences with GNOME, KDE and XFCE.
13:14 <@ShadowHntr> hell my first exposure to linux was on fvwm95
13:14 < AstralSin> kde is too cluttered for me
13:14 < AstralSin> yeah, me too
13:14 < AstralSin> i prefer gnome and xfce over anything else
13:15 <@ShadowHntr> and i've messed with CDE as well.
13:15 < AstralSin> cde sucks ass
13:15 <@ShadowHntr> lol
13:15 <@ShadowHntr> i used it when i tried Solaris 8
13:15 <@sdodson> AstralSin: why'd you hate fedora 7?
13:15 <@ShadowHntr> now that Solaris uses GNOME, it's rather nice.
13:16 <@ShadowHntr> but i think for older systems, my favorite window manager is Window Maker
13:16  * ShadowHntr likes NeXTStep :)
13:16 <@sdodson> ShadowHntr: And a browser newer than Netscape 4.79, that's a nice feature they introduced in Solaris 9!
13:16 < AstralSin> sdodson: things just didnt feel complete or intuitive, i figure why use something like that when i can use debian, ubuntu, pclinuxos, that have much better administrative functions
13:16 <@ShadowHntr> sdodson: they've had mozilla come standard since solaris 9
13:18 < AstralSin> and yum has always been inferior to apt, imo
13:18 < AstralSin> i formed a strong hatred of rpm long ago
13:19 <@sdodson> AstralSin: For any logical reason or just bs?
13:20 < AstralSin> before yum, you might as well have compiled from source, it had no dependency resolution
13:21 < AstralSin> it only told you what you were missing, which i could find by reading a readme, anyway
13:21 < AstralSin> and apt has *alot* more packages to choose from
13:21 <@ShadowHntr> i like the dependency resolution with yast
13:21 <@ShadowHntr> on opensuse
13:22 <@sdodson> It would pull in any depedencies it knew how to find. It's done that for all of time.
13:22 < AstralSin> it never did that for me
13:22 < AstralSin> it would just flunk out and say i needed a list of 15 packages
13:22 <@sdodson> http://people.mozilla.com/~polvi/threedom/status-bars.html
13:23 < AstralSin> but it looks like fedora is getting better
13:23 < AstralSin> a fellow debian fan of mine has been trying out fedora 9 since it came out and he says he likes it
13:24 <@sdodson> I applaud your friend for joining those of us who bathe regularly.
13:25 < AstralSin> oh, he's still an ubuntu user, he was just trying out fedora to see what it was like
13:25 <@ShadowHntr> :)
13:25 < AstralSin> he said its still not as polished as ubuntu
13:25 < AstralSin> tell me, sdodson, why do you think fedora is so fantastic?
13:26 <@sdodson> Fedora drives solutions rather than quick hacks.
13:26 < AstralSin> elaborate
13:27 < AstralSin> that means jack shit without specifics
13:27 <@sdodson> Doing the heavy lifting to fix architectural problems rather than brute forcing things like video driver handling.
13:28 < AstralSin> ive never had any problems with my video driver handling in ubuntu
13:28 <@sdodson> I'm not suggesting you would have.
13:29 < AstralSin> so why does that make fedora appeal to me?
13:29 < AstralSin> i don't give a shit about some hypothetical solution that fedora might have under certain specific conditions, i wanna hear a real, plausible everday scenario that makes fedora worthwhile
13:29 <@sdodson> Because it's driving long term progress rather than living for today?
13:31 < AstralSin> so yeah, some hypothetical ideal of something or another, great
13:35 <@sdodson> Oh well, give it a shot.
13:36 < AstralSin> its almost done downloading now

13:53 <+coil> ShadowHntr: solaris sucks
13:53 <@ShadowHntr> coil: fuck off.
13:53 <@ShadowHntr> you haven't tried it, have you
13:55 <+coil> yeah i have and it sucks more balls then me
14:13 < AstralSin> is there no interface for easily setting up network shares in fedora?
14:14 <@brimstone> swat?
14:14 <@ShadowHntr> NFS?
14:14 <@ShadowHntr> Samba?
14:16 < AstralSin> ubuntu has a utility that lets you share a folder and choose how you want to share it
14:17 <@ShadowHntr> ahhhh
14:17 < AstralSin> but now i can't seem to find it
14:17 < AstralSin> wtf
14:22 < AstralSin> oh, they moved it to the right click menu in hardy
14:22 < AstralSin> and the old interface is still available from the cli
14:23 <@sdodson> Windows  gets really cranky when it runs out of drive space.
14:23 < AstralSin> yep
14:24 <+coil> sdodson: so does osx
14:24 <+coil> i acidently filled it up once
14:25 <+coil> and it got really laggy, then crashed
14:26 < AstralSin> do you guys have your virtual memory set as a fixed size or can it expand/contract as it needs to?
14:26 < AstralSin> if its not set as a fixed size, that could be the problem
14:29 <+coil> no i dea
14:32 <@sdodson> coil: geez man, don't be a jerk, solaris rocks
14:33  * coil looks at sdodson 
14:33 < AstralSin> meh, fedora 9 is nice but its lack of real network share controls puts me off
14:34 < AstralSin> looks like you can share your whole home directory but i like more specific control over what i share
14:34 < AstralSin> nice firewall configuration utility though
14:35 < AstralSin> i should write one like it, it'd be good experience in both whatever language i did it in and iptables

21:27 <@I-MOD> has anyone in here played with libpurple at all?
21:29 <@I-MOD> the developer faq seems to imply that libpurple actually draws some of the windows :/
21:30 <@brimstone> that's messed up
21:30 <@I-MOD> specifically this text: Is there a way that I can print something in the conversation window, but not send the message? ¶
21:30 <@I-MOD> Yes. Use purple_conv_im_write() or purple_conv_chat_write().
21:32 <@brimstone> so, libpurple isn't just a multiprotocol client, it's a partial multiprotocol chat program
21:33 <@I-MOD> if libpurple does that much, i'm not sure what pidgin actually does

22:00 < geoffscoffee> you like crawfish?
22:00 <@dc0de> never tried them... I'm allergic to crab and lobster...
22:00 < geoffscoffee> I just got home from a boil, and boy was it good
22:00 < geoffscoffee> man, sorry
22:00 <@dc0de> nah, it's ok... :)
22:00 <@dc0de> I don't know what I'm missing, really... :)
22:01 < geoffscoffee> had more beer than I've had in months too..2 cups  :)
22:01 < AstralSin> crawfish rock
22:01 < geoffscoffee> yeah, it was horrible
22:01 <@dc0de> heh
22:01 <@sdodson> This guy at work is allergic to shell fish.
22:01 < geoffscoffee> heh
22:01 <@sdodson> An allergy he developed later in life after rather enjoying shell fish
22:02 < geoffscoffee> I"m not too big a shellfish man, but when it was alive going into the pot, that's good eats
22:02 <@dc0de> I can eat everything except lobster and crab, so I enjoy Shrimp, mollusks, and fish, just not the crawlers.
22:02 <@dc0de> it's the iodine content for me...
22:02 < AstralSin> i gotta be in the mood for it but shellfish is good
22:02 < AstralSin> but i'm always in the mood for oysters
22:02 < geoffscoffee> my friend flys in 400 lbs fresh this afternoon
22:02 <@dc0de> geoffscoffee: sweet.
22:02 < geoffscoffee> good friend
22:03 <@dc0de> geoffscoffee: indeed.
22:03 < geoffscoffee> I've never gotten behind mollusks
22:03 <@dc0de> I'm big on fresh clams on the half shell.
22:03 < geoffscoffee> I have pictures of mu son playing with the little bugs
22:04 <@dc0de> I don't do oysters, but raw clams are good, and broiled scallops are my favorite.
22:04 < geoffscoffee> OK, I"m going to set up a linux server at my house to learn on...what flavor should I use?
22:04 < geoffscoffee> not to start an argument
22:04  * dc0de backs away from this discussion.
22:04 <@dc0de> heh
22:04 < geoffscoffee> hehe
22:04 <@dc0de> geoffscoffee: what linux have you used?
22:05 < geoffscoffee> I'm on ubuntu now
22:05 < geoffscoffee> that's the majority now
22:05 <@sdodson> Then use that.
22:05 <@dc0de> go with what you're comfortable with.
22:05 < geoffscoffee> OK, cool
22:05 <@dc0de> unless you want to learn a different distro.
22:05 < geoffscoffee> I need to learn one well first
22:06 < AstralSin> centos is a good server distro, but i've had alot of success with ubuntu server
22:06 < AstralSin> ubuntu server requires a strong understanding of the linux cli though, it doesn't install a gui by default
22:06 <@sdodson> hooray centos
22:07 <@brimstone> most servers don't have lcds plugged into them most of the time...
22:07 < AstralSin> brimstone: i know, but most people feel more comfortable with a gui
22:08 < AstralSin> i run a headless slack 12 system as my server
22:08 <@dc0de> science channel has a good program on.
22:08 < geoffscoffee> YEah, I'm better with a GUI, but I need more terminal time
22:08 <@sdodson> i feel comfortable with serial!
22:08 <@dc0de> U-864 - Hitler's last secret
22:08 < geoffscoffee> a sub?
22:08 <@dc0de> I think so...
22:09 < AstralSin> geoffscoffee: i'm a strong believer in jumping head first into a cli environment and learning it, especially if you've got something you're familiar with to look shit up on
22:09 <@dc0de> it's just started.
22:09 <@dc0de> but it's intriguing
22:09 <@sdodson> http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m275/jogi21/random/best_fail_dog_ever.gif
22:09 <@dc0de> yup, a sup.
22:10 <@dc0de> sub even
22:10 < geoffscoffee> well, I've used command line before...but it was a long time ago
22:10  * geoffscoffee had a new commie 64 and apple 2e
22:11 < geoffscoffee> :)
22:11 < AstralSin> thats completely different than a linux cli :)
22:12 < geoffscoffee> I"m planning on making the move from hobbyist geek to professional geek in the near future, so I need command line time
22:12 < geoffscoffee> I know
22:12 < geoffscoffee> I'm just showing my age
22:13 <@sdodson> hahaha old people
22:13 < geoffscoffee> don't make me use my cane
22:20 <@ShadowHntr> geoffscoffee: i miss my commodore 64 :)
22:20 <@ShadowHntr> i run a Sun Ultra 10 headless with Solaris 10
22:20 <@brimstone> pfft, solaris sucks
22:20 <@ShadowHntr> and i usually manage my servers from the command line, anyway.
22:20 <@ShadowHntr> you haven't tried it recently, obviously.
22:21 <@brimstone> that's because i don't hate freedom
22:21 <@ShadowHntr> www.opensolaris.org
22:21 <@brimstone> www.debian.org
22:21 <@ShadowHntr> how is that not free
22:21 <@ShadowHntr> i hate debian with a passion.
22:21 <@brimstone> can you commit changes back to their stuff?
22:21 <@ShadowHntr> yes you can.
22:21 <@brimstone> s/commit/submit/ ?
22:22 <@ShadowHntr> yes to both.
22:22 <@brimstone> have you?
22:22 <@ShadowHntr> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CDDL
22:22 <@ShadowHntr> i'm not that strong of a programmer.
22:22 <@brimstone> why do you hate debian?
22:22 <@ShadowHntr> the major differences between debian and other major distros
22:22 <@ShadowHntr> i've tried it several times over the years
22:23 <@ShadowHntr> and i've felt lost trying to navigate sometimes.
22:23 <@brimstone> like what are the major differences?
22:23 < geoffscoffee> I know asking guys whats their favorite linux flavor is like asking who's the hottest spice girl....
22:23 <@ShadowHntr> examples: where init scripts are located, sysv vs. bsd init, /usr/share isn't always where documentation is put...
22:24 <@ShadowHntr> maybe because at that time apt wasn't very mature.
22:24 <@ShadowHntr> i don't know
22:24 <@ShadowHntr> first impressions are everything.
22:24 <@ShadowHntr> i started on Slackware and Red Hat
22:24 <@brimstone> debian always puts inits in the same spot, /etc/init.d, why use bsd's init? and i've never found docs outside of /usr/share
22:24 <@brimstone> solaris does stuff pretty weird
22:24 <@ShadowHntr> brimstone: but some linux distros use bsd init, some use sysv.
22:25 <@ShadowHntr> i got used to one, and debian used another.
22:25 <@brimstone> change isn't always bad
22:25 <@ShadowHntr> i'm not saying change is bad
22:25 <@brimstone> when did you last try debian?
22:25 <@ShadowHntr> it's just that i prefer other distros
22:25 < geoffscoffee> keeps you on your toes
22:25 <@ShadowHntr> let's see
22:25 <@brimstone> like, really try it too
22:25 <@ShadowHntr> early 2003
22:25 <@ShadowHntr> don't remember the version number
22:25 <@brimstone> setup a webserver, an email server, fileserver, etc
22:25 <@ShadowHntr> and i tried ubuntu with hoary hedgehog (5.04)
22:26 <@brimstone> tried to install graphics drivers, played a few games
22:26 <@brimstone> when did opensolaris come out?
22:26 <@ShadowHntr> the shipit one-disc install didn't even have NIS and NFS support ! i had to spend almost a full day over dialup trying to get that support in
22:26 <@ShadowHntr> 2 years ago
22:26 <@brimstone> so, you've tried opensolaris and liked it since you last tried debian?
22:26 <@ShadowHntr> yes
22:26 <@brimstone> let me know when you really evaluate debian again
22:27 <@ShadowHntr> i'll try it again some day
22:27 <@ShadowHntr> now i can at least figure out debian
22:27  * brimstone goes back to folding laundry
22:27  * ShadowHntr offers a beer as a peace offering.
22:27 <@ShadowHntr> i'm not trying to start a war or anything. =)
22:28 < geoffscoffee> me neither
22:30 < AstralSin> WARRRR!!!
22:30 < AstralSin> linux sucks! beos ftw!
22:32 <@ShadowHntr> AstralSin: i would like to try beos and nextstep :)
22:32 <@ShadowHntr> brimstone: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nexenta_OS
22:32 <@ShadowHntr> check that out.
22:33 < AstralSin> nexenta is an opensolaris derivative
22:33 <@brimstone> o.O
22:34 <@brimstone> well, there's a hurd kernel with debian userland so i guess it's not that unheard of
22:34 < AstralSin> nextstep was the OS that NeXT came up with after steve jobs left apple
22:34 < AstralSin> and there are several linux window managers that copy the nextstep window manager
22:35 <@brimstone> afterstep being the primary right?
22:35 < AstralSin> not sure which is primary but afterstep and windowmaker were the 2 big names
22:35 < AstralSin> theres even one for windows, or there was, litestep
22:36 < AstralSin> i don't know if thats still in development or not
22:36 < AstralSin> i used to really like windowmaker
22:37  * geoffscoffee is downloading the centos live cd
22:37 < geoffscoffee> why not
22:37 < AstralSin> no reason not to, i need to install it on my server
22:37 <@brimstone> i used litestep a long, long time ago
22:38 <@brimstone> it didn't look anything like nextstep's interface though
22:38 <@brimstone> it was highly customizable though
22:38 < AstralSin> i interviewed for a job monday that recommends CentOS to its customers that can't afford/doesn't need windows server
22:38 <@ShadowHntr> that's not bad...
22:38 < AstralSin> litestep is based on the ideal but does look a bit different by default
22:39 <@ShadowHntr> AstralSin: what was the timeframe for him calling for second interviews?
22:39 <@ShadowHntr> did he say to you?
22:39 < AstralSin> next week
22:39 <@ShadowHntr> cool.
22:39 < AstralSin> i think this week was the last week for the preliminary interviews
22:41 <@ShadowHntr> omg this is going to take for-fucking-ever
22:41 <@ShadowHntr> open a 1.4GB executable
22:41 <@ShadowHntr> installer
22:41 < AstralSin> for what?
22:41 <@ShadowHntr> a game
22:41 < AstralSin> oh
22:42 <@ShadowHntr> an MMO rhythm game
22:42 < AstralSin> i've actually gotten back into playing a game that i've been into for the past 3 years
22:42 <@ShadowHntr> whoever developed it didn't do a very good job of packaging for distribution.
22:42 <@ShadowHntr> probably take a few more minutes to open the damn thing :P
22:42 <@ShadowHntr> what's that
22:42 < AstralSin> just havent played in a few months
22:42 < AstralSin> alien arena
22:42 <@ShadowHntr> i bought a copy of Battlefield 2142 when i built my desktop in october
22:42 < AstralSin> its a free FPS
22:43 <@ShadowHntr> and i still have yet to play it for the first time.
22:43 <@ShadowHntr> :P
22:43 < AstralSin> i'm an old school deathmatch fragger, i have yet to find a game released in the past 5 years that has had be obsessed like alien arena
22:43  * geoffscoffee has no time for games
22:44 < AstralSin> s/be/me
22:44 < AstralSin> in fact, nothing i found until alien arena had me so obsessed since Quake 1
22:44 <@ShadowHntr> AstralSin: i like Ricochet - a mod for original Half-Life
22:45 <@ShadowHntr> Quake III and the first two Unreal Tournaments
22:45 < AstralSin> try alien arena
22:45 < AstralSin> red.planetarena.org
22:45 <@ShadowHntr> will do
22:45 < AstralSin> you might like it
22:45 < AstralSin> man, there have been some heart pounding games the last 3 days
22:45 < AstralSin> the community is really active too
22:46 < AstralSin> #alienarena on efnet, but i don't go there, i tend to kickban people too much and have to deal with people bitching so i left that channel... even though i created it
22:46 < AstralSin> and there's forums
22:48 <@ShadowHntr> cool
22:48 <@ShadowHntr> sounds like fun
22:49 < AstralSin> well, i've been playing 3 years, so that should tell you something :)
22:51 <@ShadowHntr> sweet
22:53 < AstralSin> damn, i think the pint of whiskey i just rank just hitme all at once
22:53 <@ShadowHntr> HAHAHAHA
22:53 <@ShadowHntr> that's what you get for chugging ;)
22:54 <@ShadowHntr> what, get a wave of nausea? ;)
22:54 < AstralSin> fuck, i didn't chug, i've been drinkin on it for a couple hours
22:54 <@ShadowHntr> need to hold on to the floor to keep from falling off? ;)
22:54 < AstralSin> nah, just got real drunk all of a sudden
22:54 <@ShadowHntr> j/k mate
22:54 <@ShadowHntr> hehehehe
22:54 <@ShadowHntr> i don't drink that much that often
22:54 < AstralSin> shit, i havent been that drunk in a long time
22:54 < AstralSin> i drink every night
22:55 <@ShadowHntr> i like the get the "comfortably drunk"/"good buzz" stage and not go past that
22:55 <@ShadowHntr> cause past that i tend to get sick :P
22:55 < AstralSin> i couldnt tell you the last time i got sick
22:55 < AstralSin> its been years
22:55 < AstralSin> prolly 2003
22:56 < AstralSin> and thats not because i've been slackin, i drink copious amount of alcohol often
22:56 < AstralSin> its because i'm a fuckin alcoholic i guess
22:58 < geoffscoffee> drunk, twice in my life.  Warm, about once every 2 months
23:01 <@sdodson> I've never gotten sick while drinking, it's always when I wake up in the morning.
23:01 <@sdodson> And only if I'm not smart enough to grab a few glasses of water before going to bed
23:01 < AstralSin> thats only happened to me once, actually
23:01 < AstralSin> but i have the cure for the hangover
23:02 <@sdodson> Ubuntu?
23:02 < AstralSin> eggs+bacon+biscuits+molasses+butter = cure for hangover
23:02 < AstralSin> instant cure, even
23:02 <@brimstone> i've found a grease whopper worked pretty well too
23:02 < AstralSin> never tried that
23:03 < AstralSin> but its feasible
23:03 <@sdodson> i'm not sure about molasses and biscuits, that seems to be a really odd southern thing i've never figured out
23:03 < AstralSin> molasses and biscuits = pure good
23:03 < geoffscoffee> mmmmmmmmmmmmmm
23:04 < AstralSin> and if you don't like it, you're a god damned commie
23:05 <@ShadowHntr> yikes
23:05 <@ShadowHntr> a good breakfast + Midrin is my hangover cure
23:05 <@ShadowHntr> works every time.
23:05 < AstralSin> wtf is midrin?
23:05 <@ShadowHntr> migraine medication
23:05 < AstralSin> ah
23:05 <@sdodson> ShadowHntr is a tweaker.
23:06 <@ShadowHntr> lol
23:06 <@ShadowHntr> hey - it works.
23:06 <@ShadowHntr> that's what counts.
23:16 <@ShadowHntr> well
23:16 <@ShadowHntr> i'm gonna try out some of these games
23:16 <@ShadowHntr> bbiab
23:16 -!- ShadowHntr [n=sentinel@wikipedia/Shadowhntr] has quit ["End of line."]
23:24 < geoffscoffee> night all
