schestowitz | I thought Linux virgins just click and drool /sarcasm | Apr 25 00:01 |
cubezzz | the problem is when the on screen keyboard is up, it covers half the screen | Apr 25 00:01 |
cubezzz | Unix virgins :) | Apr 25 00:01 |
cubezzz | use the general term | Apr 25 00:01 |
schestowitz | Males too | Apr 25 00:01 |
schestowitz | Wait for some male virgin from ACCESS to claim that virgin means 'female" | Apr 25 00:02 |
schestowitz | Maybe some people think that because "virgin" and "vagina" look similar then it's a similar word | Apr 25 00:02 |
MinceR | and then the hordes of m$ apologists (like byfield) come and agree vigorously | Apr 25 00:03 |

schestowitz | "I can't find this news particularly useful as Adobe does not have any track record of user freedom. While it may be nice that one proprietary software company (Adobe) leaves the subjugation of another in order (Apple iPlatform) to pursue a popular free software platform (Android), it's highly unlikely that this move will cause users to receive their essential freedoms from Adobe. It's highly likely that Adobe will continue their reign | Apr 25 00:04 |

MinceR | wait, Captain Dildo is a virgin? | Apr 25 00:05 |
*schestowitz_log removes channel operator status from schestowitz_log | Apr 25 00:05 | |
schestowitz | There is no evidence to the contrary | Apr 25 00:05 |
MinceR | sweet irony | Apr 25 00:06 |
schestowitz | But it does not imply that's the case | Apr 25 00:06 |
schestowitz | But to be fair, the same can be said about RMS cause he has no children | Apr 25 00:06 |
schestowitz | What's most stupid is impregnation for the "I'm not gay" statement | Apr 25 00:07 |
schestowitz | Some people even get married because of that | Apr 25 00:07 |
MinceR | :> | Apr 25 00:07 |
schestowitz | Society can reinforce the notion that "not married" implies homosexualities | Apr 25 00:07 |
cubezzz | you can get netwalker PC-Z1 shipped for $500 | Apr 25 00:07 |
schestowitz | Over the years I saw this label glued onto straight scientists who were just dedicated to their 'baby' (a project like GNU or maths) | Apr 25 00:08 |
cubezzz | world's overpopulated | Apr 25 00:08 |
schestowitz | "Hey, baby, let's get married to show my parents that I'm indeed straight" | Apr 25 00:08 |
cubezzz | it's completely logical not to have children | Apr 25 00:08 |
schestowitz | "Let's make a baby to prove that we're not like Jackson and Presley... pretending to be a couple" | Apr 25 00:09 |
schestowitz | You know, Michael Jackson too was accused of being gay | Apr 25 00:09 |
schestowitz | Even after he married | Apr 25 00:09 |
schestowitz | Then they had a kid | Apr 25 00:09 |
schestowitz | And they *still* labelled him gay because of his voice and stuff | Apr 25 00:09 |
cubezzz | it's meaningless | Apr 25 00:09 |
cubezzz | idle gossip | Apr 25 00:10 |
MinceR | his voice was indeed gay :> | Apr 25 00:10 |
schestowitz | He was too gentle for a reason | Apr 25 00:10 |
schestowitz | They tried to catch him all the time.. paparazzi and stuff | Apr 25 00:10 |
schestowitz | You can hear this from his friends and family | Apr 25 00:10 |
schestowitz | Naomi Campbell said he was so shocked if she cursed | Apr 25 00:10 |
schestowitz | Cause it would feed the tabloids | Apr 25 00:11 |
neighborlee | maybe he was,,,maybe not..frankly I dont care either way.he was a nice man with a solid voice and a hohum family life unfortunatley..who got caught up in the glamour town and it killed him | Apr 25 00:11 |
schestowitz | Of course... later when she threw bags and phones at her modern-age slaves she made headlines | Apr 25 00:11 |
Eruaran | I thought the years of allegations that dogged him were just terrible | Apr 25 00:11 |
cubezzz | Jackson had poor people judgement | Apr 25 00:11 |
schestowitz | Another thing I learned about last year was his skin condition | Apr 25 00:11 |
schestowitz | All these years I thought he used creams to do that | Apr 25 00:12 |
cubezzz | and too many yes-men | Apr 25 00:12 |
Eruaran | I had someone make false allegations against me once, it lasted a couple of weeks before enough of the truth came out | Apr 25 00:12 |
schestowitz | And AFAIK all the media reinforced this notion of his illness as something self inflicted | Apr 25 00:12 |
MinceR | i suspect that if a celebrity swears often enough then the tabloids won't care and as such it won't be an issue | Apr 25 00:12 |
Eruaran | You have no idea how harrowing and upsetting it is when someone makes sexual allegations against you | Apr 25 00:12 |
Eruaran | You are dragged through the mud | Apr 25 00:12 |
schestowitz | MinceR: if he's a boxer, than no | Apr 25 00:12 |
Eruaran | everyone looks at you like you're sick in the head | Apr 25 00:12 |
schestowitz | Like Hatton | Apr 25 00:12 |
Eruaran | Imagine that going on for years | Apr 25 00:13 |
schestowitz | Heh. Tyson | Apr 25 00:13 |
Eruaran | It would be a nightmare | Apr 25 00:13 |
Eruaran | Its no wonder Michael Jackson became a complete recluse | Apr 25 00:13 |

schestowitz | Hey, jookia | Apr 25 02:01 |
jookia | reading techrights.org/boycottnovell.com has made me paranoid about microsoft | Apr 25 02:01 |
cubezzz | they aren't good, believe me | Apr 25 02:05 |
jookia | what, the sites or Microsoft? | Apr 25 02:06 |
cubezzz | Microsoft | Apr 25 02:06 |
jookia | ugh, i dont know. i read conspiracy theories and believe every word, so i'm a gulliable person | Apr 25 02:07 |
jookia | imo Microsoft just wants to push the computer industry back with crappy OSes that are insecure and whatnot | Apr 25 02:08 |
cubezzz | well they want you to be always dependent | Apr 25 02:08 |
cubezzz | for a programmer, there is _no_ reason at all to use windows | Apr 25 02:09 |
cubezzz | I realize a lot of people disagree with that, but there it is | Apr 25 02:09 |
_Goblin | jookia: Its not a conspiracy, Microsoft just wants to make as much money as possible whilst spending as little on actually getting the products working, it wants the monopoly because it has shareholders and if you think about it is acting in the same way as any other company would...I don't think MS cares if the computer industry is held back or not, as long as MS is at the forefront raking in the profit. | Apr 25 02:11 |
jookia | i know | Apr 25 02:12 |
cubezzz | quite aside from the money issue, windows is simply not the best choice | Apr 25 02:12 |
_Goblin | very true | Apr 25 02:12 |
jookia | look, i dont use windows anymore | Apr 25 02:12 |
cubezzz | but there's lots of alternatives | Apr 25 02:12 |
jookia | i woke up one day and said 'why am i using an OS by people who cant get a ballot screen working correctly' | Apr 25 02:12 |
jookia | so now im on arch linux | Apr 25 02:12 |
_Goblin | cubezzz: The problem is getting over the apathy barrier of the person who uses it who has no real interest in computing. | Apr 25 02:13 |
cubezzz | well they want their computer working :) | Apr 25 02:13 |
cubezzz | so I can coax them a bit | Apr 25 02:13 |
_Goblin | cubezzz: Most Windows non tech folk say "Well its good enough" and put up with the bad times. | Apr 25 02:13 |
jookia | its only complicated in the fact that some people may have to open a terminal and copy/paste some things | Apr 25 02:14 |
cubezzz | it's inelegant | Apr 25 02:14 |
jookia | there's a whole business for commercial gnu/linux support right there | Apr 25 02:14 |
_Goblin | cubezzz: For the the thought of proactively seeking out a new OS is more hassle than simply taking a hosed Windows system to PC World. | Apr 25 02:14 |
_Goblin | *for non tech interested | Apr 25 02:14 |
cubezzz | most of the Amiga owners now run Linux | Apr 25 02:15 |
cubezzz | as a counter-example :) | Apr 25 02:15 |
_Goblin | jookia: and thats part of the barrier....apethy | Apr 25 02:15 |
_Goblin | *apathy | Apr 25 02:15 |
jookia | what really really pisses me off is OOXML | Apr 25 02:15 |
cubezzz | stupid example of a guy who was actually coaxed to Linux: | Apr 25 02:15 |
_Goblin | cubezzz: maybe because of the ethos being similar....user driven | Apr 25 02:15 |
_Goblin | cubezzz: although the question is.....where is the Linux demo scene? | Apr 25 02:16 |
cubezzz | this course he was taking, he was forced to use Microsoft Word 97 | Apr 25 02:16 |
cubezzz | _no_ other version would suffice :) | Apr 25 02:16 |
cubezzz | xscreensaver is the demo scene | Apr 25 02:16 |
cubezzz | hes paying for the course remember | Apr 25 02:17 |
cubezzz | it was so stupid | Apr 25 02:17 |
jookia | steams coming to gnu/linux | Apr 25 02:17 |
_Goblin | cubezzz: oh dear.... | Apr 25 02:17 |
jookia | so that may do something | Apr 25 02:17 |
_Goblin | cubezzz: I don't see much of the demoscene there.....not in the way the Amiga | Apr 25 02:18 |
cubezzz | yeah there really isn't one | Apr 25 02:18 |
_Goblin | Red Sector develop on 360 :* | Apr 25 02:18 |
cubezzz | the situation is a lot different though | Apr 25 02:18 |
cubezzz | Linux has a lot of abstraction layers | Apr 25 02:18 |
jookia | abstraction layers are good | Apr 25 02:19 |
cubezzz | on AMiga you had full hardware documentation | Apr 25 02:19 |
cubezzz | you don't have that now | Apr 25 02:19 |
_Goblin | ish.... | Apr 25 02:19 |
_Goblin | remember the paralax scroll myth> | Apr 25 02:19 |
cubezzz | now we have crazy guys doing reverse engineering :) | Apr 25 02:19 |
jookia | i feel like a total douchebag because my hardware barely runs windows 7 | Apr 25 02:20 |
_Goblin | according to hardware tech you couldn't achieve a 7 level paralax... | Apr 25 02:20 |
jookia | i have a goddamn 4gb ram, an i7 and ati radeon hd 4890, but windows 7 still is slow | Apr 25 02:20 |
jookia | i just dont get it | Apr 25 02:20 |
cubezzz | jookia, hahaha | Apr 25 02:20 |
cubezzz | ask me what I'm running | Apr 25 02:20 |
jookia | whatre you running | Apr 25 02:20 |
_Goblin | what are you running | Apr 25 02:20 |
cubezzz | dual p3 550 with 384 megs of ram :) | Apr 25 02:20 |
jookia | what OS | Apr 25 02:21 |
cubezzz | my motherboard is like 12 years old :) | Apr 25 02:21 |
cubezzz | fc1 | Apr 25 02:21 |
jookia | fcl=? | Apr 25 02:21 |
cubezzz | fc1, fedora core 1 | Apr 25 02:22 |
jookia | isnt that kinda out of date | Apr 25 02:22 |
cubezzz | I update it myself | Apr 25 02:22 |
jookia | can you watch HD youtube videos | Apr 25 02:22 |
cubezzz | probably not | Apr 25 02:23 |
cubezzz | I could probably do that on my TV though | Apr 25 02:24 |
cubezzz | I run 2.4 quite a bit actually | Apr 25 02:24 |
cubezzz | Amiga 500 came with 512 _meg_ memory | Apr 25 02:25 |
jookia | you know | Apr 25 02:26 |
cubezzz | and now a computer with more than 1,000 times the ram is slow? that's funny | Apr 25 02:26 |
jookia | sometimes i feel like my computer is overkill for what i do | Apr 25 02:26 |
cubezzz | I wouldn't touch windows 7 | Apr 25 02:26 |

jookia | my entire / is 6.1GB, including all my C++ tools, firefox, youtube, whatnot versus a base 16GB windows 7 install that does nothing | Apr 25 02:27 |
cubezzz | I thought XP was bloated :) | Apr 25 02:27 |
-BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] Right, Im done, time for bed. | Apr 25 02:27 | |
cubezzz | it just gets more and more bloated with each iteration | Apr 25 02:28 |
jookia | as a programmer, i just dont get how its possible to bloat something that much | Apr 25 02:28 |
cubezzz | I'm told win2k source was a real mess | Apr 25 02:28 |
jookia | win* any source is a mess | Apr 25 02:28 |

cubezzz | got no -5V yet computer is working, hmmm | Apr 25 06:58 |
cubezzz | weird, I guess newer atx PS | Apr 25 06:59 |
cubezzz | don't have -5V | Apr 25 06:59 |
cubezzz | ummm, I think ISA cards need that | Apr 25 07:10 |
cubezzz | bummer | Apr 25 07:10 |
cubezzz | this is ATX 2.3 spec | Apr 25 07:22 |
DaemonFC | kill myself is the only productive thing left to do at this point | Apr 25 07:24 |
DaemonFC | damn it all to hell :P | Apr 25 07:25 |
cubezzz | hmmm? | Apr 25 07:25 |
DaemonFC | I don't know, I was feeling OK-ish up until yesterday, despite all the stuff going wrong | Apr 25 07:26 |
DaemonFC | then my ex shows up and it's like everything all happened yesterday | Apr 25 07:26 |
DaemonFC | I guess it's like 100,000 pounds of shit was about to fall on me and the last thread in the rope got cut when I opened my front door | Apr 25 07:27 |
cubezzz | ummm | Apr 25 07:34 |
Diablo-D3 | you have no 5v at all? | Apr 25 07:35 |
cubezzz | no -5V | Apr 25 07:35 |
Diablo-D3 | and btw, old PCI cards need 5v | Apr 25 07:35 |
cubezzz | they dropped it | Apr 25 07:35 |
cubezzz | hrmmm | Apr 25 07:35 |
Diablo-D3 | but they're physically locked out so you cant plug them in anymore | Apr 25 07:35 |
cubezzz | I think -5V is for ISA cards | Apr 25 07:35 |
cubezzz | I still have +5V | Apr 25 07:35 |
cubezzz | I got PCI ethernet card | Apr 25 07:36 |
cubezzz | what else ... | Apr 25 07:36 |
cubezzz | USB 2.0 card | Apr 25 07:36 |
cubezzz | that's PCI | Apr 25 07:36 |
cubezzz | and AGP card | Apr 25 07:37 |
cubezzz | everything in the box is working | Apr 25 07:37 |
*Omar87 has quit (Quit: Leaving) | Apr 25 07:37 | |
cubezzz | I think -5V is optional in the newer ATX spec | Apr 25 07:37 |
cubezzz | just realized that I was getting an ALARM from sensors | Apr 25 07:38 |
cubezzz | all my older ATX PS's had -5V | Apr 25 07:39 |
cubezzz | but, it's still good to upgrade your PS | Apr 25 07:39 |
cubezzz | they are more efficient | Apr 25 07:40 |
Diablo-D3 | heh | Apr 25 07:40 |
*Diablo-D3 's psu is so efficient, antec made up the 80 Plus bullshit | Apr 25 07:41 | |
Diablo-D3 | future editions of my psu had the 80 Plus sticker slapped to the side with no modifications to it | Apr 25 07:42 |
cubezzz | now I have the PCI-e 6pin connector | Apr 25 07:43 |
cubezzz | can't use it though :) | Apr 25 07:43 |
cubezzz | I assume that's for power hungry video cards | Apr 25 07:44 |
cubezzz | and what is -12V used for I wonder | Apr 25 07:44 |

cubezzz | I have PCI 2.1 mobo | Apr 25 07:57 |
cubezzz | PCI 2.3 disallows 5V PCI cards | Apr 25 07:58 |
Diablo-D3 | cubezzz: no | Apr 25 07:59 |
Diablo-D3 | 2.3 requires it to be not implemented | Apr 25 07:59 |
Diablo-D3 | its been an option for quite awhile | Apr 25 07:59 |
Diablo-D3 | one that most manufs didnt allow | Apr 25 07:59 |
cubezzz | ah I see | Apr 25 07:59 |
Diablo-D3 | they havent made 5v pci cards for eons | Apr 25 08:00 |
cubezzz | "Standby current must be 750mA or higher (SB5V = 0.75A)" | Apr 25 08:01 |
Diablo-D3 | 3.3 has been a requirement for over a decade | Apr 25 08:02 |
Diablo-D3 | and any pci card thats either >33mhz or 64bit is required to be 3.3 | Apr 25 08:03 |
cubezzz | "but at 33 MHz both 5 volt and 3.3 volt signal voltages are still allowed." | Apr 25 08:03 |
cubezzz | "PCI 3.0 is the final official standard of the bus, completely removing 5-volt capability." | Apr 25 08:04 |
Diablo-D3 | thats wrong | Apr 25 08:04 |
Diablo-D3 | 2.3 removed it | Apr 25 08:05 |
cubezzz | my sound card could be 5 volt for all I know | Apr 25 08:06 |
cubezzz | probably not | Apr 25 08:06 |
Diablo-D3 | probably not | Apr 25 08:07 |
Diablo-D3 | look at the keying on it | Apr 25 08:07 |
cubezzz | some cards are universal | Apr 25 08:11 |
cubezzz | this looks like a 5V PCI card actually | Apr 25 08:12 |
Diablo-D3 | a lot of cards arent universal | Apr 25 08:13 |

Diablo-D3 | huh | Apr 25 08:15 |
Diablo-D3 | yours is actually 5v | Apr 25 08:15 |

Diablo-D3 | audiotrak == ESI's consumer brand | Apr 25 08:20 |
Diablo-D3 | they use envy24s and high quality dacs | Apr 25 08:20 |
Diablo-D3 | theres basically 6 cards that you can honestly say sound good | Apr 25 08:21 |
cubezzz | optical S/PDIF digital output, fancy | Apr 25 08:21 |
Diablo-D3 | all of them use envy24s | Apr 25 08:21 |
Diablo-D3 | three of them are made by ESI, three of them are made by m-audio | Apr 25 08:21 |
Diablo-D3 | and one of them is no longer in production | Apr 25 08:21 |
*scientes_ (~scientes@unaffiliated/scientes) has joined #boycottnovell | Apr 25 08:22 | |
Diablo-D3 | they all score identically on audio quality tests | Apr 25 08:23 |
Diablo-D3 | the only difference is the features you pay for | Apr 25 08:23 |
Diablo-D3 | esi's juli@, the most expensive of them, is $500 | Apr 25 08:24 |
Diablo-D3 | the audiotrak hd2 is the cheapest, but stereo only | Apr 25 08:24 |
cubezzz | I don't think of 5V PCI cards as old, but everything is relative | Apr 25 08:24 |
cubezzz | old is > 20 years | Apr 25 08:24 |
cubezzz | but I guess this mobo is getting kinda old | Apr 25 08:26 |
cubezzz | I remember everyone used to rave on about Ultrasound cards | Apr 25 08:30 |

_Goblin | Eruaran: Yes I like the idea, I don't though think the font fits with the picture | Apr 25 12:12 |
_Goblin | Eruaran: and theres too much picture...... | Apr 25 12:12 |
_Goblin | Eruaran: either bigger text or smaller banner | Apr 25 12:13 |
_Goblin | imho | Apr 25 12:13 |
Eruaran | yes | Apr 25 12:13 |
Eruaran | its just an example though | Apr 25 12:13 |
_Goblin | your work though is all very good..... | Apr 25 12:13 |
Eruaran | its about the type and style of text and the kind of backdrop | Apr 25 12:13 |

*oiaohm (~oiaohm@unaffiliated/oiaohm) has joined #boycottnovell | Apr 25 12:15 | |
Eruaran | the idea with that example is that you can have a banner across the top of your page that is a nice backdrop with foreground text for your site name and other stuff | Apr 25 12:15 |
_Goblin | yeah, I like it...I think a font similar to the one used now would suit the picture better. | Apr 25 12:16 |
Eruaran | for something like columns yes | Apr 25 12:17 |
Eruaran | as long as the text is high contrast to bring it firmly into the foreground | Apr 25 12:18 |
_Goblin | I also think a slogan is suitable | Apr 25 12:18 |

DaemonFC | the Teabagger for our local state Senate seat promises to introduce a bill to require drug tests of all people receiving food stamps or medicaid | Apr 25 22:09 |
DaemonFC | as his "first priority" | Apr 25 22:09 |
DaemonFC | I guess the goal is to dump everyone that smoked a joint in the last 5 years | Apr 25 22:10 |
DaemonFC | (hair test) | Apr 25 22:10 |
DaemonFC | they'll waste more money with the expensive drug tests on everyone to throw out 5% of the people getting the benefits who have ever actually used something | Apr 25 22:11 |
DaemonFC | and it's sure to cause problems and throw out people who never used anything illegal in their life | Apr 25 22:12 |
DaemonFC | there's lots of things that are perfectly legal that can cause a false positive for illegal drugs | Apr 25 22:12 |
DaemonFC | maybe you drug test a cancer patient who is on Marinol | Apr 25 22:12 |
DaemonFC | throw him off his food stamps for "marijuana" being detected | Apr 25 22:12 |
DaemonFC | it makes no sense | Apr 25 22:12 |
DaemonFC | it's going to throw off people who have done nothing wrong, right and left | Apr 25 22:13 |
DaemonFC | it's an unconstitutional invasion | Apr 25 22:13 |
DaemonFC | and it's damned expensive :P | Apr 25 22:14 |
DaemonFC | it's why no state has every done this up to now | Apr 25 22:14 |

DaemonFC | *morning | Apr 25 22:23 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz: Why is Netflix using Solver Blight anyway? | Apr 25 22:23 |
DaemonFC | bribes or can it do things Flash can't? | Apr 25 22:23 |
DaemonFC | *Silver | Apr 25 22:23 |
DeadSuperHero | Well, admittedly Flash is pretty terrible. Maybe they just wanted to go with another option. | Apr 25 22:24 |
DeadSuperHero | I dunno, the truth is probably somewhere between bribery and "trying something new" | Apr 25 22:24 |
MinceR | maybe they thought "hey, it can't be worse than Trash!" | Apr 25 22:24 |
MinceR | and they were wrong | Apr 25 22:24 |
DeadSuperHero | You win some, you lose some. | Apr 25 22:25 |
DaemonFC | Silverlight works with Opera now | Apr 25 22:25 |
DeadSuperHero | I only ever rented DVDs directly when I was using their service. | Apr 25 22:25 |
DeadSuperHero | Yeah, works with Chrome as well. | Apr 25 22:25 |
DeadSuperHero | At least Moonlight does. | Apr 25 22:26 |
DaemonFC | but you still have to Mask Opera as Firefox to make Netflix work | Apr 25 22:26 |
DeadSuperHero | Meh. | Apr 25 22:26 |
DaemonFC | else it pops up a bogus error saying come back in IE or Firefox | Apr 25 22:26 |
DaemonFC | works perfect in Opera once you change user agent to Firefox | Apr 25 22:26 |
DeadSuperHero | I think there's more merit in promoting Creative Commons-based films from dirt poor studios. | Apr 25 22:26 |
DeadSuperHero | Rather than shelling out a couple bucks to big media producers. | Apr 25 22:27 |
_Goblin | Moonlight works in chrome? Im surprised anyone bothered to find out. | Apr 25 22:28 |
*DaemonFC is watching Mortal Kombat :P | Apr 25 22:29 | |

DaemonFC | :P | Apr 25 22:40 |
DeadSuperHero | I dunno, I was a huge fan of Galaga. | Apr 25 22:40 |
DeadSuperHero | We had a lot of classic game machines at this local arcade in my town. | Apr 25 22:40 |
DeadSuperHero | Shame it went under. | Apr 25 22:40 |
DaemonFC | DeadSuperHero: I'd play two players at once sometimes | Apr 25 22:41 |
MinceR | i could never get myself to waste money on arcade games when i knew i could play on my computer instead :> | Apr 25 22:41 |
DaemonFC | stick a quester in the other slot and now you have two pulse rifles | Apr 25 22:41 |
