| schestowitz | I've managed to get all the DICOM data under control, with scripts/functions that organise the data and metadata, making it available for analysis and deformation, if necessary. It's not yet clear, however, what method/s to apply to it. I am working on a research proposal. | Nov 04 16:24 |
| schestowitz | FurnaceBoy: they are pathetic | Nov 04 16:24 |
| schestowitz | They still can't manage to make people use what's already on almost every new PC | Nov 04 16:25 |
| schestowitz | Says a lot about their development skills | Nov 04 16:25 |
| schestowitz | They sent development to Asia, for IE too IIRC | Nov 04 16:25 |

| schestowitz | I told you they jump the shark | Nov 04 17:10 |
| schestowitz | It's like when Adelson quit Digg | Nov 04 17:10 |
| MinceR | i don't think they've jumped the shark yet | Nov 04 17:40 |
| abeNd-org | ive never paid attention to reddit | Nov 04 17:41 |
| abeNd-org | the few posts people referred to me from it were worthless | Nov 04 17:41 |
| schestowitz | MinceR: they've jumped the chimp | Nov 04 17:43 |

| schestowitz | I know, I was looking for a name of another large fish | Nov 04 17:59 |

| schestowitz | And since Reddit sold out to SteveB with IE9 ads.... | Nov 04 18:00 |
| MinceR | i'm only aware of one "ad" | Nov 04 18:01 |

| schestowitz | Send my best regards to Anita, please. I am sure the surgery will be a success and Anita is a strong lady, so am not shocked to hear that she was mentally ready for it. I met a radiologist on Tuesday for some discussion about work that I do on the heart. I would love to have a chat with Anita about it next time I'm in Florida. | Nov 04 19:32 |
| schestowitz | Her sister died not so long ago :-( :-9 | Nov 04 19:32 |

| MinceR | it's better than c#, pascal and basic, though | Nov 04 19:51 |
| FurnaceBoy | one-language programmers can only be considered as narrow specialists | Nov 04 19:56 |
| FurnaceBoy | any non-trivial project usually involves at least half a dozen tools and syntaxes | Nov 04 19:56 |
| MinceR | not sure about that | Nov 04 19:56 |
| FurnaceBoy | we use php, sql, make, bash, perl, python, javascript, etc, and this is just a dumb website | Nov 04 19:57 |
| MinceR | unless you count markup languages, sql, and fluff like that | Nov 04 19:57 |
| FurnaceBoy | sure, SOME projects get by with one or two. | Nov 04 19:57 |
| FurnaceBoy | sql ain't fluff :) | Nov 04 19:57 |
| FurnaceBoy | and no, i'm not counting markup. | Nov 04 19:57 |
| MinceR | well, it's more like filth | Nov 04 19:57 |

| Ender2070 | FurnaceBoy - I worked out a deal with my hosting provider | Nov 04 20:01 |
| Ender2070 | he lowered a lot of the prices so I won't be switching | Nov 04 20:01 |

| MinceR | hay | Nov 04 20:01 |
| Ender2070 | hey | Nov 04 20:01 |
| Ender2070 | im going to migrate over to F14, I'm almost sure of it | Nov 04 20:02 |
| Ender2070 | pwnage.ca runs ubuntu | Nov 04 20:02 |
| Ender2070 | 512mb ram, 30gb HDD and 30gb bandwidth is gonna run me $13 /month | Nov 04 20:03 |
| Ender2070 | roughly | Nov 04 20:03 |
| FurnaceBoy | Ender2070: ok | Nov 04 20:06 |
| FurnaceBoy | Ender2070: that's a pretty good deal. | Nov 04 20:06 |
| FurnaceBoy | Ender2070: that's basically what i would have liked, if i didn't go into the current vps with a friend | Nov 04 20:06 |
| Ender2070 | oh yeah, a friend? good stuff | Nov 04 20:07 |
| Ender2070 | dealing with friends is good | Nov 04 20:07 |
| FurnaceBoy | i was looking for smth < $10 | Nov 04 20:07 |
| FurnaceBoy | but he wanted 1gb, so we just split 50-50 | Nov 04 20:07 |
| FurnaceBoy | ours is freebsd | Nov 04 20:07 |
| Ender2070 | mine is whatever I want to install that works in virtual box | Nov 04 20:08 |
| Ender2070 | ill be replacing ubuntu very soon | Nov 04 20:10 |
| FurnaceBoy | yeah they'll install whatever we want. | Nov 04 20:10 |
| Ender2070 | yeah thats what i dont like about xen | Nov 04 20:10 |
| Ender2070 | gotta have a xen aware guest | Nov 04 20:10 |
| Ender2070 | usually requires host setup | Nov 04 20:11 |
| Ender2070 | I had 1gb of ram before | Nov 04 20:14 |
| Ender2070 | I wanted to use opensolaris | Nov 04 20:14 |
| Ender2070 | but way too slow | Nov 04 20:14 |
| Ender2070 | i forgot to bring the ram down and it was costing me so much to have it | Nov 04 20:14 |
| FurnaceBoy | i have a colo with Solaris 10. | Nov 04 20:23 |
| FurnaceBoy | but i'm closing that to save money. | Nov 04 20:23 |
| FurnaceBoy | right, if you use vps there's not much point in solaris. | Nov 04 20:24 |
| FurnaceBoy | for dedicated, it would be my first choice. | Nov 04 20:24 |
| Ender2070 | yeah and now that i've used fedora for years I feel i'd be more comfortable with it | Nov 04 20:27 |
| Ender2070 | instead of ubuntu server | Nov 04 20:28 |
