schestowitz | He brags about being SEO/networking thing | Jan 10 02:21 |
_goblin | I'll have to check back....it was my response to his article "The curious case of Boycott Novell".....I wrote an article response to it. | Jan 10 02:21 |
schestowitz | _goblin: show me the comments | Jan 10 02:21 |
schestowitz | _goblin: ah wait | Jan 10 02:21 |

schestowitz | I thought he pulled a mutex/darryl on you | Jan 10 02:22 |
schestowitz | The trolls are very busy in BN these days | Jan 10 02:22 |
schestowitz | Esp. in comments, a little in IRC | Jan 10 02:22 |
schestowitz | Mutex went mad in the comments | Jan 10 02:22 |
neighborlee | sorry if I came off a bit HEAVY earlier | Jan 10 02:22 |
neighborlee | just read vexorian's comments, and i was like YAY I feel exactly the same !! ;) | Jan 10 02:23 |
_goblin | This comment from Mr Wong made me laugh though (when I corrected him about LinXXX) | Jan 10 02:23 |
schestowitz | vexorian/algorithm is good | Jan 10 02:23 |
schestowitz | He also posts in /. | Jan 10 02:23 |
neighborlee | ahh ic | Jan 10 02:23 |
_goblin | I didn’t realize that Lin###.org is not a “Linux community”. In fact, upon a second visit to the site, I realize that is is far from being representative of the Linux community. I have updated my blog entry to reflect this fact. | Jan 10 02:23 |
schestowitz | His disdain of mono and lip service to vala is not new | Jan 10 02:23 |
_goblin | sorry the above is Mr Wongs words | Jan 10 02:23 |
neighborlee | schestowitz: ah | Jan 10 02:23 |
schestowitz | _goblin: it's an anti-Linux site | Jan 10 02:24 |
schestowitz | They sort of admitted this | Jan 10 02:24 |
_goblin | that was a quote from Mr Wong | Jan 10 02:24 |
schestowitz | And it's similar to the other operations that are run to smear me and others | Jan 10 02:24 |
schestowitz | Even the FSF | Jan 10 02:24 |
schestowitz | From the same umbrella | Jan 10 02:24 |
schestowitz | I got some private E-mail about it today | Jan 10 02:24 |
schestowitz | _goblin: OK, missed the quotes there | Jan 10 02:25 |
_goblin | I'll start again. Mr Wong said on my blog (after I corrected him about the Linxxx.org) - "I didn’t realize that Linsux.org is not a “Linux community”. In fact, upon a second visit to the site, I realize that is is far from being representative of the Linux community. I have updated my blog entry to reflect this fact." | Jan 10 02:25 |
neighborlee | any i dea btw..was a ECMA license ever received by ITWire ?? | Jan 10 02:25 |
schestowitz | LinSUX is self explanatory | Jan 10 02:25 |
schestowitz | the "sux" does not refer to oral pleasures | Jan 10 02:25 |

schestowitz | Some other Microsoft shills also played that card of comparing me to a serial killer | Jan 10 02:26 |
_goblin | I'll add that to my "jihad" Im supposed to be running.. | Jan 10 02:26 |
neighborlee | schestowitz: absurd | Jan 10 02:26 |
schestowitz | Some do that to RMS | Jan 10 02:26 |

neighborlee | education will help curb it,,but its going to take a LONG time and alot of moooooooooola | Jan 10 02:28 |
oiaohm | Really we are planing to destroy the states quo. | Jan 10 02:28 |
oiaohm | Humans fear change. | Jan 10 02:28 |

neighborlee | sadly | Jan 10 02:29 |
neighborlee | 'dont rock the boat' blah blah ;)) | Jan 10 02:29 |
neighborlee | its a 'old' ideology | Jan 10 02:29 |
oiaohm | People forget the Nazis and Taliban supporters both had the idea they were undefeatable because they were so strong. | Jan 10 02:29 |
neighborlee | and a semi hip song from 70's ,or was that 80's LOL | Jan 10 02:29 |
neighborlee | oiaohm: true indeed | Jan 10 02:30 |
neighborlee | that they had the power of 'right' on their side | Jan 10 02:30 |
oiaohm | And people forget how Nazis and Taliban treated any one who resisted there ideas. | Jan 10 02:30 |
neighborlee | death | Jan 10 02:30 |
neighborlee | no tolerance | Jan 10 02:30 |
neighborlee | the opposite of teachings of great teachers | Jan 10 02:31 |
oiaohm | One of the most important things to remember. Normally items people compare you to is what they really are even if there normal thoughts don't know it. There sub mind knows it. | Jan 10 02:31 |
*ThistleWeb has quit ("Lost terminal") | Jan 10 02:31 | |
neighborlee | oiaohm: there is that yes ;) | Jan 10 02:32 |
oiaohm | Yes the most common people to call someone rasist are rasist themselves and don't want to own up to it. | Jan 10 02:32 |
neighborlee | yup | Jan 10 02:32 |
oiaohm | This is pure human nature. | Jan 10 02:32 |
neighborlee | it is | Jan 10 02:32 |
oiaohm | Lot of US wish we could say it was not. | Jan 10 02:33 |
neighborlee | owning up to it is first step to curing ;) | Jan 10 02:33 |
neighborlee | ie: AA | Jan 10 02:33 |
oiaohm | This side of human nature you cannot cure. | Jan 10 02:34 |
oiaohm | You just learn to live with it and understand what you are doing. | Jan 10 02:34 |
neighborlee | well I mean...bad lessons learned from childhood,,et cetera | Jan 10 02:34 |
neighborlee | or bad peer pressure | Jan 10 02:34 |
neighborlee | etc. | Jan 10 02:34 |
oiaohm | Its not childhood the rules of human nature are the same all cultures around the world. | Jan 10 02:35 |
oiaohm | We are basically born with it. | Jan 10 02:35 |
neighborlee | airport bomber recently was a college grad,,but he got in the 'wrong' crowed, and voila,,instant terrorist | Jan 10 02:35 |
neighborlee | crowd | Jan 10 02:35 |
oiaohm | That is not accepting responsablity for actions. | Jan 10 02:35 |
oiaohm | The crowd humans use to justify the most harmful crimes. | Jan 10 02:35 |
neighborlee | no i m ean..bad things in childhood can be tricky sometimes to overcome | Jan 10 02:36 |
neighborlee | we are all different..some weaker willed due to varoius factors | Jan 10 02:36 |
neighborlee | psychology is a very tricky subject I guarantee it | Jan 10 02:36 |
oiaohm | I know I studied to for years neighborlee | Jan 10 02:36 |
neighborlee | so you know then | Jan 10 02:36 |
oiaohm | The basic core of all humans is the same. | Jan 10 02:36 |
neighborlee | sure | Jan 10 02:37 |
oiaohm | Experenices build on top of that. | Jan 10 02:37 |
neighborlee | we're all subject to bad teachings | Jan 10 02:37 |
neighborlee | depending on varoius factors ;) | Jan 10 02:37 |
neighborlee | ious | Jan 10 02:37 |
oiaohm | The major thing to deal with a bad past is accepting that you are responsible for your actions and not other peoples. | Jan 10 02:37 |
neighborlee | well sure | Jan 10 02:38 |
oiaohm | That is hard for a lot of people todo. | Jan 10 02:38 |
neighborlee | its not always that easy thouhg oiaohm | Jan 10 02:38 |
oiaohm | The hardest of all. Is excepting that nothing can be done about the past. And having to live for the future. | Jan 10 02:38 |
neighborlee | quite | Jan 10 02:39 |
oiaohm | You notice how many MS people try to use history to say that Linux will fail in future. | Jan 10 02:39 |
tessier__ | grrrr | Jan 10 02:39 |
tessier__ | I really hate commies. | Jan 10 02:39 |
tessier__ | Not only did they recently execute the leader of a popular dissident website (or so I am told) but just today they they have started intercepting SIP phone calls. | Jan 10 02:40 |
neighborlee | oiaohm: typical,,when you have little else to argue ;) | Jan 10 02:40 |
tessier__ | So now I have to make a change to my phone system and consider ways to encrypt the phone calls. | Jan 10 02:40 |
tessier__ | The phones themselves don't do crypto afaik. Which means I am going to have to play some games with a VPN running from a secondary router which the phones can gateway through or something. | Jan 10 02:40 |
neighborlee | :( | Jan 10 02:40 |
oiaohm | History of something does not say if something will remain a failure in a future. Good example is the light bulb think how many attempts were made before the first one of them really worked. | Jan 10 02:41 |
oiaohm | That is there big failure is that they have not read enough history it see examples where failures have won. | Jan 10 02:42 |
*tessier (n=treed@76.199.182.173) has joined #boycottnovell | Jan 10 02:42 | |
neighborlee | its not as if they care about the success ;)) | Jan 10 02:42 |
oiaohm | The light bulb tells you some critical if the other side is determined enough there will be a winner. | Jan 10 02:43 |
neighborlee | they dont want linux to succede therefore its better to cast doubt and make it irrelevant than try to deal head on fairly ;) | Jan 10 02:43 |
oiaohm | Also they have not studied history of inventions. | Jan 10 02:43 |
oiaohm | Lot of great inventors were told they were mad before there inventions work. | Jan 10 02:44 |
neighborlee | just like only recenty do they have to include other browsers | Jan 10 02:44 |
oiaohm | Trying to case doubt causes motivation to disprove them. | Jan 10 02:44 |
neighborlee | and that messy IP ruling..what a major joke that was | Jan 10 02:44 |
oiaohm | History tells you that everything the trolls are doing is stupidity. | Jan 10 02:44 |
neighborlee | and mono supporters wonder why we distrust mono etal ?? | Jan 10 02:45 |
neighborlee | o_9 | Jan 10 02:45 |
neighborlee | o_0 | Jan 10 02:45 |
oiaohm | History tells us it wise to resist Mono. | Jan 10 02:45 |
oiaohm | Due to what MS has done in past. | Jan 10 02:45 |
neighborlee | exactamongo | Jan 10 02:45 |
neighborlee | 100% correct | Jan 10 02:45 |
neighborlee | not to mention the facts we already know about it ;)) | Jan 10 02:45 |
neighborlee | groklaw, etcetera | Jan 10 02:45 |
oiaohm | And we have done homework. | Jan 10 02:46 |
neighborlee | that we most certainly have | Jan 10 02:46 |
oiaohm | We are trying to be constructive. | Jan 10 02:46 |
neighborlee | yup | Jan 10 02:46 |
oiaohm | If MS released the right IP coverage most of our trouble with mono would go away. | Jan 10 02:46 |
neighborlee | you betcha | Jan 10 02:46 |
oiaohm | Yet the supports want to make out that we are destructive. | Jan 10 02:47 |
neighborlee | exactly | Jan 10 02:47 |
neighborlee | we da bad guys heh | Jan 10 02:47 |
oiaohm | Human nature again. | Jan 10 02:47 |
neighborlee | yup | Jan 10 02:47 |
oiaohm | Anyone who does not see it your way has to be a bad guy. | Jan 10 02:47 |
oiaohm | Sad really. | Jan 10 02:48 |
neighborlee | tis true | Jan 10 02:48 |
oiaohm | We would have progressed a lot more as a race without that stupidity. | Jan 10 02:48 |
-BNi/#boycottnovell-[sagarun/@sagarun] Need to update emacs-goodies this week. | Jan 10 02:48 | |
oiaohm | Ie a single race | Jan 10 02:48 |
neighborlee | oiaohm: tell that to the middle east conflict yes | Jan 10 02:48 |
neighborlee | what a UGLY mess,, | Jan 10 02:48 |
neighborlee | sad to think the land jesus walked,,is fillled with such hate | Jan 10 02:49 |
oiaohm | Does not matter if its the middle east or usa gangs or crime lords it all works the same way. | Jan 10 02:49 |
neighborlee | name your prophet..its endless | Jan 10 02:49 |
neighborlee | of course yup | Jan 10 02:49 |
oiaohm | You can almost tell were people live by where they point for examples of bad guys. | Jan 10 02:50 |
oiaohm | Normally the furtherest away from where they are. | Jan 10 02:50 |
oiaohm | People never want to admit these things are happening in there own back yard. | Jan 10 02:50 |
-BNc/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] Been hit with some complaints about my use of IMO. Comments noted and I explained the basis for them... | Jan 10 02:50 | |
oiaohm | You are powerless against stuff on the other side of world so you don't have to do anything about it.. | Jan 10 02:51 |
oiaohm | Yet you have power in your own backyard. | Jan 10 02:51 |
neighborlee | well | Jan 10 02:51 |
neighborlee | yes and no | Jan 10 02:51 |
oiaohm | Note I said almost | Jan 10 02:51 |
-BNc/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] Since I actually agree, maybe a simple one time disclaimer is more suitable? Thanks for the polite constructive criticism! | Jan 10 02:51 | |
neighborlee | if 'everyone' thought the same way, we/d have a great chance at making world peace VERY easy ;) | Jan 10 02:51 |
oiaohm | 90 percent of a population are that way. | Jan 10 02:52 |
oiaohm | We all do think the same kinds of ways that is the problem neighborlee | Jan 10 02:52 |
neighborlee | reason I think about israel,,is my hero is jesus (* my upbringing only ), so I just hate to see jerusalem so hate filled, considering his messsage of 'peace' is so obvious | Jan 10 02:52 |
neighborlee | 'love' isn't as easy to come by as you might think, even in the united states | Jan 10 02:52 |
-BNc/#boycottnovell-[schestowitz] "Google becoming "giant monopoly" - German minister" http://ur1.ca/jgoo have they abused to maginalise competition? | Jan 10 02:52 | |
oiaohm | Human nature to have domination. | Jan 10 02:52 |
neighborlee | yet jesus taught it non stop | Jan 10 02:52 |
neighborlee | and others obviously | Jan 10 02:52 |
oiaohm | Love means taking risks. | Jan 10 02:53 |
neighborlee | oiaohm: there is that yes | Jan 10 02:53 |
neighborlee | to both counts ;) | Jan 10 02:53 |
neighborlee | sell all your goods, and come follow me | Jan 10 02:53 |
neighborlee | a rich man enter heaven , harder than passing throgh eye of needle ;)..etc. etc. | Jan 10 02:53 |
neighborlee | poverty doesn't help though | Jan 10 02:54 |
oiaohm | Getting rich normally means dominating others. | Jan 10 02:54 |
oiaohm | So doing evil. | Jan 10 02:54 |
neighborlee | thats a MAJOR hurdle we must all get past | Jan 10 02:54 |
neighborlee | and education of course | Jan 10 02:54 |
neighborlee | health care | Jan 10 02:54 |
neighborlee | blah blah | Jan 10 02:54 |
neighborlee | :) | Jan 10 02:54 |
oiaohm | Note not all people to get rich get there by dominating. | Jan 10 02:54 |
oiaohm | But they are a very small percentage. | Jan 10 02:54 |
schestowitz | "Rich"by definition is about power over others | Jan 10 02:54 |
neighborlee | yes | Jan 10 02:54 |
schestowitz | "Money" is a currency of control or subjugation | Jan 10 02:54 |
neighborlee | definitely | Jan 10 02:54 |
schestowitz | For example, paying a cab driver to drive you somewhere | Jan 10 02:55 |
neighborlee | or atl east, it can be ;) | Jan 10 02:55 |
neighborlee | and normally is | Jan 10 02:55 |
neighborlee | usually I mean | Jan 10 02:55 |
oiaohm | There is more than 1 way to get power over others schestowitz | Jan 10 02:55 |
schestowitz | Or paying for some people in the production lines in China to make you a product | Jan 10 02:55 |
oiaohm | One is to take it by force ie normally evil. | Jan 10 02:55 |
oiaohm | The other is having them willing give it. | Jan 10 02:55 |
schestowitz | Yes | Jan 10 02:55 |
schestowitz | Unions | Jan 10 02:55 |
oiaohm | Being good enough to get it be willing giving it is far harder. | Jan 10 02:56 |
oiaohm | Unions use force as well to get members. | Jan 10 02:56 |
*_goblin has quit ("Ex-Chat") | Jan 10 02:56 | |
oiaohm | Google would be a classic case of getting power willingly a lot. | Jan 10 02:57 |
oiaohm | Lot of people use google because it returns the search results they want so google gets rich. | Jan 10 02:57 |
oiaohm | Of course people who get power willing scare the crap out of people who have to use force to get power. | Jan 10 02:58 |
-BNc/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] Right, thats me done for the night. Its been quiet a good day for readership (over 1100 unique IPs) and Im hoping that will increase when.. | Jan 10 02:58 | |
oiaohm | There are lot of examples of people getting power from willing and informed givers. Lot of them have been the most powerful people in history. | Jan 10 02:59 |
neighborlee | well thank goodness google is there..bing might compete so thats a good thing I suppose <we'll see> | Jan 10 02:59 |
-BNc/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] I release my next couple of articles. Have you wondered how many accounts Microsoft has on Twitter? We ask the question. Also.. | Jan 10 02:59 | |
neighborlee | not sure I like bing,,but the ads are OUT there thats for sure..saw a new one last night | Jan 10 03:00 |
neighborlee | on cable I mean | Jan 10 03:00 |
neighborlee | ;) | Jan 10 03:00 |
neighborlee | I still usually use google. | Jan 10 03:00 |
-BNc/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] Im looking at VLOS and a collection of Linux games which dismiss the myth regarding Linux and gaming. | Jan 10 03:00 | |
neighborlee | I prefer its sear ch output | Jan 10 03:00 |
oiaohm | Google will only stay on top while it has great results. | Jan 10 03:01 |
neighborlee | exactly | Jan 10 03:01 |
oiaohm | And no one else has better. | Jan 10 03:01 |
cubezzz | what else is there? :) | Jan 10 03:01 |
cubezzz | dont' say bing | Jan 10 03:01 |
oiaohm | Problem is these days it almost impossible for anyone to have enough resources to catch google. | Jan 10 03:01 |
neighborlee | there is that | Jan 10 03:02 |
oiaohm | Even if MS threw ever cent they had at bing it most likely would not be enought to catch google. | Jan 10 03:02 |
neighborlee | bing is trying ;) | Jan 10 03:02 |
neighborlee | really hard lol | Jan 10 03:02 |
cubezzz | the main thing is Google is not Microsoft | Jan 10 03:02 |
neighborlee | whew<or we hope anyway> | Jan 10 03:02 |
-BNc/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] We also have a Q&A with a chap who is working very hard in the FOSS world - an unsung hero! | Jan 10 03:02 | |
cubezzz | can you imagine what things would be like if Microsoft owned search? | Jan 10 03:02 |
oiaohm | Google has had a long time to build it search database. | Jan 10 03:03 |
oiaohm | Time is a factor against you in the search engine business | Jan 10 03:03 |
oiaohm | MS entered the game too late. | Jan 10 03:03 |
oiaohm | The problem is MS fears Google coping there model. | Jan 10 03:07 |
oiaohm | Having domination in one area and use that to get complete domination in others. | Jan 10 03:07 |

oiaohm | ardour blender combination is a new one to me. | Jan 10 05:58 |
oiaohm | But as a audio editor ardour is insanely powerful. | Jan 10 05:58 |
neighborlee | if you can figure it out ;) | Jan 10 06:00 |
neighborlee | its not for average joe's...but powerful it is ;) | Jan 10 06:00 |
neighborlee | audacity is prob. for others, but yeah a bit of doc perusal and you'd be on your way no doubt | Jan 10 06:01 |

DaemonFC | Finally someone does this, and only 9 years after Windows XP started doing it | Jan 10 06:03 |
DaemonFC | "Hey, how about we just stand here and do nothing while the user tries to figure out which badly named RPM has their printer drivers in it" | Jan 10 06:04 |
DaemonFC | that was kind of my first thought when I plugged my HP printer in and Mandriva had no idea what to do with it | Jan 10 06:04 |
DaemonFC | you'd think that with a whole DVD, they could have stuffed HPLIP somewhere | Jan 10 06:05 |
DaemonFC | it's kind of funny that HP open sources their printer drivers on Linux, in that their favorite trick to instantly obsolete a working printer has been to not make drivers for newer versions of Windows | Jan 10 06:07 |
DaemonFC | I know I'd be pissed if I had just bought a $100> printer and then a year later, Vista comes along and just isn't having it | Jan 10 06:12 |
DaemonFC | seen a lot of people get fucked like that | Jan 10 06:12 |
DaemonFC | hmmm, I think all these "trade groups" should get together under one unified banner | Jan 10 06:19 |
neighborlee | oiaohm: blender can be very non user friendly at first yes | Jan 10 06:19 |
neighborlee | oiaohm: but, version 2.5/2.5 coming out , will change all that..its much more ,,intuitive ;) | Jan 10 06:20 |
oiaohm | The 2.5.0 alpha is a lot more user friendly. | Jan 10 06:20 |
neighborlee | yup | Jan 10 06:20 |
DaemonFC | could call it the EBMSC, for Evil Bloated Media and Software Cartel | Jan 10 06:20 |
neighborlee | I love it so far | Jan 10 06:20 |
neighborlee | DaemonFC: :) | Jan 10 06:20 |
oiaohm | DaemonFC: There is a reason for the great HP support on Linux. | Jan 10 06:20 |
DaemonFC | it could absorb the BSA, ESA, and RIAA/MPAA | Jan 10 06:20 |
oiaohm | The write the drivers once release the source code and never have to touch it again. DaemonFC | Jan 10 06:20 |
DaemonFC | as well as most of broadcast television | Jan 10 06:20 |
DaemonFC | the BSA really is just a front for Microsoft I think | Jan 10 06:21 |
DaemonFC | I don't see anyone else in it that comes to mind | Jan 10 06:22 |
oiaohm | DaemonFC: Basically supporting working printers under Windows cost HP more development time. | Jan 10 06:22 |
oiaohm | Costs is the pure issue. | Jan 10 06:22 |
cubezzz | it's protocols that count | Jan 10 06:22 |
DaemonFC | yeah, if they make a new driver, they can't sell you another printer | Jan 10 06:23 |
cubezzz | e.g. are they public knowledge | Jan 10 06:23 |
DaemonFC | their "Windows" of opportunity to make your printer not work happen every 5 years or so | Jan 10 06:23 |
cubezzz | in the old days we got programming manuals with our printers | Jan 10 06:23 |
DaemonFC | better do it now | Jan 10 06:23 |
cubezzz | hence the horrible rise of windows only devices, which I think is ending | Jan 10 06:24 |
cubezzz | hopefully | Jan 10 06:24 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz: I also don't see a typical person being able to program anything | Jan 10 06:24 |
oiaohm | http://www.cups.org/software.php#USING_WINDOWS Note MS changing how to do print drivers is also a head ache for this. | Jan 10 06:24 |
phIRCe-local | Title: Download - CUPS .::. Size~: 13.99 KB | Jan 10 06:24 |
DaemonFC | that's the cause of a lot of frustration when you sit down in front of a system based on something that had the assumption that all its users were programmers in mind | Jan 10 06:24 |
cubezzz | yes but without programming specs and open protocols it's going to be hard for _anyone_ to make a good driver | Jan 10 06:25 |
cubezzz | _someone_ has to write it | Jan 10 06:25 |
oiaohm | Basically HP theory is once the printer is past a particular age you hook it up to a mac or linux box. | Jan 10 06:25 |
oiaohm | Note Macs support hp printers perfectly. | Jan 10 06:25 |
oiaohm | Its only windows users who suffer. | Jan 10 06:25 |
cubezzz | that implies that they release programming docs late | Jan 10 06:25 |
DaemonFC | yeah, it's so much nicer to be able to pop in a driver disc than wait around forever on the off chance that someone else makes a driver you can use | Jan 10 06:25 |
oiaohm | Full specs to HP printers are out there if MS wanted to write the drivers. | Jan 10 06:26 |
cubezzz | it's the scanners that worry me more than the printers | Jan 10 06:26 |
DaemonFC | Microsoft only makes a few very essential, usually generic core drivers | Jan 10 06:26 |
oiaohm | Apple and Linux Distributions take care of creating the HP drivers that is why it works so well. | Jan 10 06:26 |
cubezzz | so probably I will go Epson and forget about HP unless things change | Jan 10 06:26 |
DaemonFC | past that, they bundle or offer whatever the manufacturer gave them | Jan 10 06:26 |
cubezzz | look what Microsoft does... | Jan 10 06:27 |
cubezzz | they obsolete things on purpose | Jan 10 06:27 |
cubezzz | you even noted that yourself | Jan 10 06:27 |
DaemonFC | Microsoft isn't as bad about that as a lot of hardware makers | Jan 10 06:27 |
cubezzz | as bad as who? | Jan 10 06:28 |
oiaohm | http://hp-linux.cern.ch/support/devscanner.php3 You find most HP scanners work like HP printers. | Jan 10 06:28 |
oiaohm | Ie support out box. | Jan 10 06:28 |
cubezzz | no | Jan 10 06:28 |
DaemonFC | typically, you can use a particular version of Windows for 5 years and expect major updates to it, like service packs and the "Vista Platform Update" type stuff | Jan 10 06:28 |
cubezzz | I've done a ton of work on this and I know better | Jan 10 06:28 |
cubezzz | single function devices, no | Jan 10 06:28 |
DaemonFC | then for 5 more years it goes into extended support which technically only covers bug patches and security patches | Jan 10 06:29 |
cubezzz | they signed NDA's with Analog Devices | Jan 10 06:29 |
cubezzz | so no chip docs | Jan 10 06:29 |
DaemonFC | but they still throw in things like DirectX updates, IE, Media Player | Jan 10 06:29 |
oiaohm | ok you mean the out sourced ones cubezzz | Jan 10 06:29 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, probaby | Jan 10 06:29 |
oiaohm | All the analog devices ones don't come out hp factories. | Jan 10 06:29 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, I wrote to the HP devs asking for a current single function device that was a scanner with programming docs | Jan 10 06:30 |
DaemonFC | a lot of companies that have to use components or firmware from other companies have to use NDAs or keep the specs of the device secret | Jan 10 06:30 |
cubezzz | I was told there was no such device available | Jan 10 06:30 |
DaemonFC | it would be nice if there weren't so many MPEG and Windows Media files floating around | Jan 10 06:31 |
DaemonFC | licensing fees on those add to the purchase price, even if you don't use them | Jan 10 06:31 |
cubezzz | I specifically wrote to the HP dev group for scanners | Jan 10 06:31 |
DaemonFC | *of portable hardware | Jan 10 06:31 |
cubezzz | SCL was obsolete I was told | Jan 10 06:32 |
cubezzz | before I was programming with SCL directly | Jan 10 06:32 |
DaemonFC | mandatory Microsoft/MPEG tax on a device I bought for its Vorbis support | Jan 10 06:32 |
DaemonFC | probably only $1, but I still don't want to pay them :P | Jan 10 06:32 |
cubezzz | so stuff like HP 5200C (very old, but still works) no problems | Jan 10 06:32 |
cubezzz | HP 4470C big time problem | Jan 10 06:33 |
cubezzz | I got tired of it | Jan 10 06:33 |
DaemonFC | I got into an argument with someone about 7-8 years ago, who seemed to think that MPC was going to find some kind of hardware support | Jan 10 06:33 |
DaemonFC | I asked him what particular drugs he was on | Jan 10 06:33 |
cubezzz | actually any media which I have bought (like wmv) I was able to remove DRM | Jan 10 06:34 |
DaemonFC | I've never "bought" any music or movie files that have DRM | Jan 10 06:34 |
DaemonFC | you're not really buying anything in that case, even if it says you are | Jan 10 06:34 |
cubezzz | well puretracks used DRM in the past | Jan 10 06:35 |
cubezzz | they use it less and less now | Jan 10 06:35 |
DaemonFC | I hate DRM | Jan 10 06:35 |
cubezzz | now I think watermarking is all the rage | Jan 10 06:35 |
DaemonFC | I hate DRM enough that it makes my purchase decision contingent on its not being there | Jan 10 06:36 |
cubezzz | DRM isn't a big problem, secret communication protocols are | Jan 10 06:36 |
DaemonFC | I don't care what it is, I don't want anything bad enough to purchase it in DRM or WMA format | Jan 10 06:36 |
cubezzz | no DVDs with CSS then? :) | Jan 10 06:37 |
DaemonFC | there's a reason all the DRM WMA stores went bankrupt | Jan 10 06:37 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz: CSS is not really DRM | Jan 10 06:37 |
*tessier__ is bummed that the freenx in f12 is broken | Jan 10 06:37 | |
DaemonFC | it's there to make sure that you're player's MPEG tax is paid up | Jan 10 06:38 |
DaemonFC | *your | Jan 10 06:38 |
tessier__ | The printer situation is crazy. There is no need to have different drivers for different printers. | Jan 10 06:38 |
DaemonFC | nobody has sued over libdvdcss, but I suspect that a hardware maker using it to help circumvent the MPEG tax would get their ass sued off | Jan 10 06:39 |
cubezzz | re: printers, this is a new problem, in the past it was all fine | Jan 10 06:39 |
tessier__ | Fortunately hardware is cheap enough that any printer worth owning supports postscript these days. | Jan 10 06:39 |
oiaohm | cubezzz if you go to sane you will see all the modern HP sanners most are drivers for other makes of scanners to operate. Bascailly hp is not chipsetting any more. | Jan 10 06:39 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, yeah I've seen it | Jan 10 06:39 |
cubezzz | there could have just kept making HP 5200C's | Jan 10 06:40 |
cubezzz | they | Jan 10 06:40 |
cubezzz | but no one ever does that, except Commodore and they are long gone | Jan 10 06:40 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: so the problem comes find out what chipset and contact the chipset maker for the data sheet. Lot of cases those chipset makers are nice. cubezzz | Jan 10 06:41 |
oiaohm | cubezzz: HP sign a NDA to protect everything include the design inside the chip. | Jan 10 06:41 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, Analog Devices refused my request for chip information | Jan 10 06:41 |
oiaohm | Bugger so reversing it is. | Jan 10 06:41 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, HP 4470C took me 5 years | Jan 10 06:42 |
cubezzz | I was just stubborn | Jan 10 06:42 |
oiaohm | The more Linux devices that get out there the less stubbon companies like Analog Devices will be. | Jan 10 06:42 |
oiaohm | It will be a simple case do you want to sell product or not. | Jan 10 06:43 |
cubezzz | oiaohm, yes but if you buy without researching first, you could end up in reverse engineering land | Jan 10 06:43 |
oiaohm | Or refund land. | Jan 10 06:44 |
oiaohm | It techically don't work. | Jan 10 06:44 |
cubezzz | yes, but you know what they will always say | Jan 10 06:44 |
oiaohm | It works with windows defence does not apply in Australia. | Jan 10 06:45 |
cubezzz | that's good | Jan 10 06:45 |

oiaohm | So they take it back and get a refund. | Jan 10 06:47 |

DaemonFC | schestowitz: I managed to find an AoTuv PPA for Ubuntu finally | Jan 10 19:26 |
DaemonFC | I wonder why nobody is shipping that libvorbis by default | Jan 10 19:27 |
DaemonFC | the official one looks like crap in comparison | Jan 10 19:27 |
schestowitz | DaemonFC: OK | Jan 10 19:27 |
DaemonFC | I think that if Xiph.org has stuck a fork in it, AoTuv needs to become the new de facto standard | Jan 10 19:27 |
DaemonFC | it's just one of those things that's griped me for a while | Jan 10 19:27 |
DaemonFC | the source code is there, it's clearly better, no distribution ships it | Jan 10 19:28 |
DaemonFC | it just smells of politics | Jan 10 19:28 |
DaemonFC | I just wonder why superior forks get to sit out in the cold while the official project is sitting there with their collective thumb up their collective ass and hasn't done anything meaningful to the mainline project in almost 5 years | Jan 10 19:30 |
DaemonFC | I think someone needs to go blow the dust off Xiph.org, goose Monty, and try to get a new official release so all these Linux distributions have a better Vorbis encoder than Windows users are likely to find after 1 minute of Googling | Jan 10 19:31 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz: It does matter and you should care, because you could easily use AoTuv and save some bandwidth | Jan 10 19:32 |
DaemonFC | I don't know how much your Ogg media uses, but if it's a lot, then being able to switch from 64kbps to 48 would still put a dent in your bill | Jan 10 19:33 |
DaemonFC | it also affects your videos because the encoders on Linux for Theora are encoding the audio part with whatever libvorbis is handy | Jan 10 19:34 |

MinceR | they didn't really understand what the deal with a modular OS was | Jan 10 19:50 |
MinceR | this is what their marketroid/lawyer mind could come up with | Jan 10 19:50 |
DaemonFC | I strongly suspect they just turn everything off by default to make Windows Server look all lean and mean | Jan 10 19:50 |
DaemonFC | even while it's dragging around gigabytes of crap regardless | Jan 10 19:50 |
MinceR | well, as much as they really can turn off | Jan 10 19:51 |
DaemonFC | if you don't see it, it must not be there | Jan 10 19:51 |
MinceR | i've heard stories of what the various crap in, say, ISA server requires to be enabled and running | Jan 10 19:51 |
DaemonFC | the Desktop Experience "feature" gives you Aero and Windows Media Player" | Jan 10 19:51 |
DaemonFC | I discovered a bug in that though | Jan 10 19:51 |
MinceR | well, software engineers would have developed the media player as an application | Jan 10 19:52 |
DaemonFC | Aero Peek is broken til you go to Advanced System Properties and toggle "Adjust for best performance" and "Adjust for best appearance" a few times | Jan 10 19:52 |
DaemonFC | then it works again | Jan 10 19:52 |
MinceR | i wonder if in m$-land it reaches into the kernel, like the windowing system does | Jan 10 19:52 |
DaemonFC | they like to strap all their stuff into the kernel and not document any of it | Jan 10 19:53 |

MinceR | yeah, "it will be zomg-fast that way!" | Jan 10 19:53 |
MinceR | and then it just isn't | Jan 10 19:53 |
DaemonFC | it's why Apache performs worse than IIS on Windows | Jan 10 19:53 |
DaemonFC | Microsoft strapped a lot of stuff IIS uses into the kernel | Jan 10 19:53 |

schestowitz | Did you see NEtscraft? | Jan 10 19:54 |
DaemonFC | Apple does it too, Mozilla had to reverse engineer a lot of stuff to make Firefox run right on OS X | Jan 10 19:54 |
schestowitz | Apache up 3 million | Jan 10 19:54 |
schestowitz | Kicking Microsoft arse | Jan 10 19:54 |
DaemonFC | I have the option to install IIS 7.5 under Server Roles | Jan 10 19:55 |
DaemonFC | :P | Jan 10 19:55 |
schestowitz | Microsoft pays Apache now, thinking there are enough people gullible enough to move it closer to Winows | Jan 10 19:55 |
schestowitz | Same with PHP/Zend | Jan 10 19:55 |
DaemonFC | according to MS, PHP and ASP(.Net) both work on IIS | Jan 10 19:55 |
DaemonFC | though I suspect PHP is slow as all hell | Jan 10 19:55 |
DaemonFC | for "some reason" | Jan 10 19:56 |
schestowitz | I think that at some stage they also added "incentives" to move | Jan 10 19:56 |
schestowitz | aka "bribes" | Jan 10 19:56 |
schestowitz | DaemonFC: 95% of Zend customer deploy on Linux | Jan 10 19:56 |
DaemonFC | yeah, they support PHP to lure everyone over to IIS, then once they have everyone in one place, they remove PHP support and only do ASP.NET | Jan 10 19:56 |
schestowitz | I could recheck the #s | Jan 10 19:56 |
DaemonFC | was the plan I'm sure | Jan 10 19:56 |
schestowitz | Among the devs, they test a lot on Linux too | Jan 10 19:57 |
schestowitz | Same with eclipse | Jan 10 19:57 |

MinceR | that plan is doomed to fail | Jan 10 19:57 |
DaemonFC | anyone actually using Windows on a server needs to have their head examined | Jan 10 19:57 |
MinceR | those users would still be bound much stronger to php than iis | Jan 10 19:57 |
MinceR | so they'd just move back | Jan 10 19:57 |

trmanco | I'm already using FF 3.6 as my main browser | Jan 10 22:21 |
MinceR | "look it up on the Web with Disease." | Jan 10 22:21 |
DaemonFC | trmanco: I've been using Seamonkey lately | Jan 10 22:21 |
trmanco | I only want a browser | Jan 10 22:21 |
trmanco | not a all in one | Jan 10 22:21 |
DaemonFC | it's only like 2 MB bigger download than Firefox | Jan 10 22:22 |
schestowitz | DaemonFC: Ballmer might say it is a "cancer" that he hopes will "attach itself to anything it touches" | Jan 10 22:22 |
DaemonFC | not even that | Jan 10 22:22 |
MinceR | lol | Jan 10 22:22 |
DaemonFC | by the time you add Chatzilla, and Thunderbird to Firefox, it's actually a lot bigger than Seamonkey | Jan 10 22:23 |
DaemonFC | duplication of a lot of stuff that is unified in Seamonkey | Jan 10 22:23 |
trmanco | but I only want s browser | Jan 10 22:24 |
trmanco | LOL | Jan 10 22:24 |
trmanco | a* | Jan 10 22:24 |
DaemonFC | I thought Firefox was pointless the moment they announced it | Jan 10 22:24 |
DaemonFC | has to be simple if they market to simpletons | Jan 10 22:24 |
DaemonFC | so lets take two thirds of what it can do away and decrease the install size by 10% | Jan 10 22:25 |
DaemonFC | call it something else :D | Jan 10 22:25 |
ThistleWeb | gievn how MS infect rival boardrooms and turn them into MS cells, I'd say they intentionally model their buisness on cancer cells | Jan 10 22:25 |

-BNc/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] So now Im back (and have a few articles waiting further ino) I am going to take some time to re-organize my site. | Jan 10 22:25 | |
ThistleWeb | then either sell or partner up to MS so they become part of the whole and no longer separate....or kill it off | Jan 10 22:26 |
ThistleWeb | seems Ballmer has studied the way cancer works | Jan 10 22:26 |
DaemonFC | Why is Novell allowing Moonlight to use Vorbis and Theora? | Jan 10 22:27 |
DaemonFC | Silverlight doesn't support those | Jan 10 22:27 |
-BNc/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] Its amazing how many articles never made it to the publishing stage. Must have nearly 40 articles I didn't deem suitable for Openbytes | Jan 10 22:27 | |
MinceR | 232352 < DaemonFC> I thought Firefox was pointless the moment they announced it | Jan 10 22:28 |
MinceR | i thought so too | Jan 10 22:28 |
MinceR | it took me a while to even try it (iirc it was called Firebird when i did) | Jan 10 22:28 |
MinceR | but i think that getting Gecko out of the UI was a good thing :) | Jan 10 22:29 |
MinceR | now if they'd get rid of XUL there too... | Jan 10 22:29 |
DaemonFC | one thing I don't like about Firefox is that Microsoft trojans in plug ins for it | Jan 10 22:31 |
DaemonFC | they don't affect Seamonkey, not enough users to bother with I guess | Jan 10 22:31 |
oiaohm | I wish Firefox would just disable the third party add extentions and require all approved. | Jan 10 22:34 |
ThistleWeb | firefox does need to think about more secure way of doing addons | Jan 10 22:35 |
*Balrog has quit () | Jan 10 22:37 | |
oiaohm | It still no where as bad as what you can get away with active controls in IE ThistleWeb | Jan 10 22:37 |
MinceR | people should stop using m$ malware. then they wouldn't have their firefox installations infected by them | Jan 10 22:37 |
ThistleWeb | I do like the flexibility of fireofx with addons, but I can see where it could easily be exploited | Jan 10 22:38 |
oiaohm | MinceR: Items like .net plugins that put you at risk. Should not auto enable. MinceR | Jan 10 22:38 |
MinceR | should not install the malware that installs them. | Jan 10 22:38 |
DaemonFC | yeah, that's my major objection | Jan 10 22:38 |
DaemonFC | they're adding security flaws to my browser without my permission | Jan 10 22:38 |
MinceR | also, it should be possible to legally punish m$ for these tricks | Jan 10 22:38 |
ThistleWeb | it could be done securely and retain the functionality | Jan 10 22:39 |
MinceR | i don't really see how it could be possible to prevent a third-party app from installing add-ons into firefox | Jan 10 22:39 |
DaemonFC | same thing as walking up to your car while you're not looking and cutting the brake cables | Jan 10 22:39 |
DaemonFC | :P | Jan 10 22:40 |
oiaohm | Change in addons while off line report to user for approval MinceR | Jan 10 22:40 |
MinceR | m$ crap shouldn't be trusted to run unsandboxed with admin rights at all | Jan 10 22:40 |
oiaohm | Now someone caught by passing that would be internionally avoiding user. | Jan 10 22:40 |
oiaohm | So in breach of law. | Jan 10 22:40 |
MinceR | though if possible, they should add the ability to remove all addons (iirc m$ crap somehow disabled disabling/uninstalling their add-ons) | Jan 10 22:40 |
MinceR | oiaohm: your idea would certainly help anyway | Jan 10 22:41 |
MinceR | if in no other way then by warning the user that someone isn't playing fair | Jan 10 22:41 |
DaemonFC | I was disappointed in how Mozilla handled that | Jan 10 22:41 |
MinceR | until of course m$ breaks this functionality too | Jan 10 22:41 |
DaemonFC | they should have blacklisted all versions until Microsoft changed it to require consent for installation | Jan 10 22:42 |
oiaohm | Problem is what MS does with .net is inside old netscape plugin design. | Jan 10 22:42 |
oiaohm | Ie permited by rules. | Jan 10 22:42 |
oiaohm | Basically the rules need revission. | Jan 10 22:42 |
oiaohm | Firefox has added a plugin black list. | Jan 10 22:43 |
oiaohm | But users are not really in full control of it. | Jan 10 22:43 |

amarsh04 | does that router run linux? | Jan 10 23:41 |
oiaohm | It will be Linux or BSD. | Jan 10 23:47 |
schestowitz | Don't know... | Jan 10 23:47 |
oiaohm | Sprint don't produce a router that is not one or the other. | Jan 10 23:47 |
oiaohm | So its a 50 50 bet amarsh04 | Jan 10 23:48 |
schestowitz | Hmmmm... I wonder why the server is idle... maybe connectivity? | Jan 10 23:48 |
schestowitz | oiaohm: what would you suggest if activity just totally stopped and restarting apache has no effect? | Jan 10 23:50 |
schestowitz | I'm on ssh, so it's still connected | Jan 10 23:51 |
schestowitz | Maybe xen malfunction? | Jan 10 23:51 |
oiaohm | Can you visit web site from where you are. | Jan 10 23:51 |
oiaohm | Ie both places. | Jan 10 23:51 |
Diablo-D3 | I wish they'd quit pushing wimax | Jan 10 23:51 |
Diablo-D3 | if it cant be 100% unlimited service with no caps | Jan 10 23:52 |
Diablo-D3 | then its a scam | Jan 10 23:52 |
schestowitz | oiaohm: tessier's site is down too | Jan 10 23:52 |
oiaohm | like links browser on server. | Jan 10 23:52 |
oiaohm | Make sure appache is working. | Jan 10 23:52 |
oiaohm | I would say something has gone wrong schestowitz | Jan 10 23:52 |
oiaohm | Where is the question schestowitz | Jan 10 23:53 |
schestowitz | What's weird is that all CPU is at 0 | Jan 10 23:53 |
schestowitz | Everything | Jan 10 23:53 |
oiaohm | Diablo-D3: wimax could be useful here. Since it can operate on unlicence 5 ghz range. | Jan 10 23:53 |
schestowitz | Like no process is doing anything | Jan 10 23:53 |
Diablo-D3 | oiaohm: yes, and then use up space for N. | Jan 10 23:53 |
oiaohm | If you have no requests there will be no load schestowitz | Jan 10 23:53 |
schestowitz | There are requests | Jan 10 23:54 |
oiaohm | This is sounding like Xen could be nutted. schestowitz | Jan 10 23:54 |
schestowitz | That's what I suspect cause it happened last month | Jan 10 23:54 |
oiaohm | Hmm twice. | Jan 10 23:55 |
oiaohm | That is odd. | Jan 10 23:55 |
oiaohm | Diablo-D3: wifi N and wimax use different sections of 5 space. | Jan 10 23:55 |
Diablo-D3 | oiaohm: no overlap? | Jan 10 23:56 |
oiaohm | Default devices will not Diablo-D3 | Jan 10 23:56 |
oiaohm | Also most new wifi n cards are coming out support wimax as well. wimax is designed for range. wifi n is designed for close up. | Jan 10 23:57 |
Diablo-D3 | wimax is designed for a pure IP transit | Jan 10 23:57 |
Diablo-D3 | as in, its "4G" in cell phone speak | Jan 10 23:57 |
oiaohm | wimax is also design to work along side wifi. | Jan 10 23:58 |
oiaohm | wimax can simply do km's where wifi cannot. | Jan 10 23:58 |
Diablo-D3 | well, yes, look what I said above. | Jan 10 23:59 |
