_goblin | lol... | Nov 21 01:36 |
_goblin | really? | Nov 21 01:36 |
_goblin | lets argue a point of law with someone who has no power to change it and an obligation to enforce it. | Nov 21 01:36 |
_goblin | the same obligation which kicks in when someone wants an offender arrested for a crime against them. | Nov 21 01:37 |
_goblin | was interesting though.... | Nov 21 01:38 |
_goblin | having said that, incorrect (or indeed misleading) use of powers should be exposed. That helps nobody. | Nov 21 01:39 |
_goblin | well I thought it was interesting anyway.... | Nov 21 01:41 |
*Declination has quit ("Leaving") | Nov 21 01:43 | |

schestowitz | I never learned how Twitter lists work | Nov 21 01:55 |
_goblin | its really just like a favourites.... | Nov 21 01:55 |
_goblin | the results shown are merely the twits of the people followed in that group.... | Nov 21 01:55 |
schestowitz | I'm too old now to learn new things like "Lists" :-p | Nov 21 01:56 |
_goblin | its called the boycottboys or something similar. | Nov 21 01:56 |
_goblin | Im in it! | Nov 21 01:56 |

_goblin | ah | Nov 21 02:00 |
_goblin | sounds rather unpleasant | Nov 21 02:00 |

oiaohm | If you were like me I would say grow a beard and first few times it will be light but it will get darker schestowitz | Nov 21 02:07 |
ender2070 | beards and goatees grant psychic powers | Nov 21 02:08 |
_goblin | very true... | Nov 21 02:09 |
_goblin | and also the Spartans had them....we all saw that movie... | Nov 21 02:11 |
cubezzz | goatee = evil spock :) | Nov 21 02:12 |
_goblin | lol... | Nov 21 02:12 |
_goblin | did you see the "evil" alternate universe of Enterprise? | Nov 21 02:12 |
cubezzz | actually no | Nov 21 02:13 |
cubezzz | I'm more of a classic trek expert | Nov 21 02:13 |
_goblin | ah....you probably would have agreed that the evil version was better...... | Nov 21 02:13 |
cubezzz | evil spock wasn't even that evil | Nov 21 02:14 |
_goblin | are you refering to mad spock or alternate universe spock? | Nov 21 02:14 |
cubezzz | ISS Enterprise | Nov 21 02:14 |
cubezzz | so alternative universe spock | Nov 21 02:15 |
_goblin | if you are a classic fan, I hope you hated the new movie.... | Nov 21 02:15 |
cubezzz | never saw it | Nov 21 02:15 |
_goblin | good...dont | Nov 21 02:15 |
cubezzz | and I doubt I would have liked it | Nov 21 02:15 |
_goblin | it completely destroys the timeline..... | Nov 21 02:15 |
cubezzz | well I realize they have to try new things | Nov 21 02:15 |
_goblin | yes but it means now everything we were brought up on never happened. | Nov 21 02:16 |
_goblin | Vulcan no longer exists.... | Nov 21 02:16 |
_goblin | Captain whatever his name was (memory blank) no longer gets crippled and put into that robotic chair... | Nov 21 02:17 |
cubezzz | oh you mean Christopher Pike | Nov 21 02:17 |
_goblin | thats him...! | Nov 21 02:17 |
_goblin | so presumably he keeps the Enterprise. | Nov 21 02:17 |
cubezzz | jeffery Hunter died young in RL | Nov 21 02:17 |
cubezzz | never did science fiction again as far as I know | Nov 21 02:18 |

cubezzz | here's something not too many people know... | Nov 21 02:19 |
_goblin | and there will also presumably be no Bird of Prey to fly back in time to save the whales when the floating poo turns up to talk to them..... | Nov 21 02:19 |
cubezzz | in the 2nd pilot... they used the navigation console for the transporter console :) | Nov 21 02:19 |
_goblin | so earths a gonner too. | Nov 21 02:19 |
cubezzz | the same thing happens in every serial with a long history like Star Trek | Nov 21 02:20 |
cubezzz | different writers want to put their own spin on it | Nov 21 02:20 |
_goblin | they could have done it differently....and kept faithful to the longterm fans.... | Nov 21 02:20 |
_goblin | the new movie was like Beverly Hills 90210 in space. | Nov 21 02:20 |
cubezzz | Matt Jefferies was probably the one who soldified the look of the series | Nov 21 02:21 |
cubezzz | yeah, well... that's why I don't bother :) | Nov 21 02:21 |
_goblin | sensible..... | Nov 21 02:21 |

_goblin | oh and that sounded posh....study/library = room with all my books. a messy desk and 2 pcs....nothing fancy.... | Nov 21 03:00 |
_goblin | Hal 9000....isn't that a quad core running Vista....sure its got the power, but the software causes it to go screwy..... | Nov 21 03:02 |
_goblin | "Im sorry Dave I can't let you do that" - was just a futuristic BSOD. | Nov 21 03:02 |

sebsebseb | _goblin: got the thing now in my Mandriva 2010 vm, said newer version and it asks if I want to get Mandriva 2009 Spring yep | Nov 21 03:13 |
_goblin | yeah, Roy commented it was a known bug.... | Nov 21 03:14 |
sebsebseb | it's a stupid bug | Nov 21 03:14 |
_goblin | for me that Mandriva just didn't cut it.... | Nov 21 03:14 |
_goblin | the DE was very unstable too (on my rigs) | Nov 21 03:14 |
_goblin | but the worst part was it wouldn't let me change the res... | Nov 21 03:15 |
sebsebseb | 2008 something is meant to be a good one, I haven't done previous oens | Nov 21 03:15 |

_goblin | for an "out of the box" distro, I spent less time fiddling with Gentoo. | Nov 21 03:15 |
sebsebseb | there graphical software management tool is ok, but Ubuntu Software Centre is better | Nov 21 03:15 |
sebsebseb | schestowitz: what commands would I need to install stuff and uninstall for that matter using the shell? | Nov 21 03:16 |

sebsebseb | I notice little things like, there not being any icons for anything on the system menu, in Ubuntu 9.10, and Fedora 12, as well as there not being an icon for Connect to Server or Search for Files in the places menu anymore, any idea why that is? Mandriva 2010 has them :) | Nov 21 03:20 |
sebsebseb | _goblin: I got wolvix and stuff like that to vm yet | Nov 21 03:20 |
_goblin | you'll like Wolvix Im sure... | Nov 21 03:21 |
sebsebseb | _goblin: well probably if it comes with nice eye candy by default, and a text boot up mode when it's loading up | Nov 21 03:21 |
_goblin | Its a little cracker...although Im disturbed that it still isn't out of Beta2 and have a horrible feeling it may be a dying project.... | Nov 21 03:22 |
sebsebseb | the most good looking distro I have tried so far is Vector Linux | Nov 21 03:22 |
_goblin | maybe if that happens, I'll take it on.... | Nov 21 03:22 |
_goblin | Vector? | Nov 21 03:22 |
sebsebseb | yep | Nov 21 03:22 |
_goblin | standby....have to refresh my memory | Nov 21 03:22 |
_goblin | just themes and wallpapers make it eyecandy.... | Nov 21 03:23 |
sebsebseb | the vm was old though when I tried in Virtualbox, but I really liked it. Thing is that distro does Open Office on it's paid for add on CD, but people can install them selves anyway it seems. It's Slackware based. | Nov 21 03:23 |
_goblin | look at my 30 minute knocked up Ubuntu 9.10: | Nov 21 03:23 |

DaemonFC | oiaohm: Do you figure it's a better deal to buy a 32" 720p LCD for $400 or a 32" 1080p LCD for $750? | Nov 21 07:02 |
DaemonFC | I'm window shopping for a new TV, I may just go ahead and buy one if I get that "stimulus check" | Nov 21 07:02 |
DaemonFC | this one I'm on now weighs about 100 pounds, it's massive, no HDMI, I'm tired of looking at it | Nov 21 07:03 |
oiaohm | Depends how close you are going to be to the TV. | Nov 21 07:04 |
oiaohm | When you are far enough back even the most picky person cannot pick the difference. Human eyes are not good enough. | Nov 21 07:05 |
DaemonFC | hmmmm | Nov 21 07:06 |
DaemonFC | probably six feet between the couch and the TV | Nov 21 07:06 |
DaemonFC | the room isn't all that big | Nov 21 07:06 |
DaemonFC | another thing I was interested in is doubling it as a PC monitor, I know I'd want the 1080p model for that | Nov 21 07:07 |
oiaohm | PC monitor 720p is going to sux. | Nov 21 07:07 |
oiaohm | Event the 1080p can sux. | Nov 21 07:07 |
oiaohm | Be aware lot of tv LCD's have limited resultions on offer for the computer and will black screen if you choose a resultion they don't know. | Nov 21 07:09 |
Diablo-D3 | 1080/1200p for a monitor is fine | Nov 21 07:09 |
Diablo-D3 | oiaohm: no, not really | Nov 21 07:09 |
oiaohm | Really. | Nov 21 07:09 |
Diablo-D3 | learn how dvi and hdmi work | Nov 21 07:09 |
Diablo-D3 | if you use a resolution that isnt returned by the TV, then yes, it can do whatever it wants | Nov 21 07:09 |
oiaohm | It should tell the computer resultions it can display. | Nov 21 07:09 |
Diablo-D3 | it does. | Nov 21 07:09 |
Diablo-D3 | and it has done so for a very very long time. | Nov 21 07:10 |
oiaohm | There are some that have crappy controller. | Nov 21 07:10 |
oiaohm | That returns a stack of resultions they cannot do. | Nov 21 07:10 |
Diablo-D3 | then the television is broken | Nov 21 07:10 |
oiaohm | LCD screens have all there resultions tested. | Nov 21 07:10 |
oiaohm | If they are for PC. | Nov 21 07:10 |
Diablo-D3 | also, running an LCD panel at non-native res sucks. | Nov 21 07:10 |
DaemonFC | oiaohm: My mom's TV is weird. Sometimes you have to push OK/Exit. OK/Exit, 5-6 times when you're trying to start an HD movie from On Demand | Nov 21 07:10 |

Diablo-D3 | I dont buy cheap _or_ crap TVs. | Nov 21 07:13 |
oiaohm | When used it returns a message to OS that it cannot switch to the resultion Diablo-D3 | Nov 21 07:13 |
DaemonFC | it wasn't THAT long ago that we were happy with VHS at 1/3rd that resolution | Nov 21 07:13 |
DaemonFC | and DVDs are all 480p | Nov 21 07:13 |
oiaohm | Even that it told the OS it could do it Diablo-D3 | Nov 21 07:13 |
Diablo-D3 | oiaohm: [02:08:45] <Diablo-D3> also, running an LCD panel at non-native res sucks. | Nov 21 07:14 |
DaemonFC | at this rate, it'll be 3-4 years before a video game console can really surpass 720p without upscaling a lower resolution | Nov 21 07:14 |
DaemonFC | or about 5 years until cable TV even catches up to 720p fully | Nov 21 07:14 |
oiaohm | Diablo-D3: I know that but having OS try a res 8 times then panel shutoff. Is a pain in ass having to turn off to come back on line. | Nov 21 07:15 |
oiaohm | Just because someone by mistake changed resultions Diablo-D3 | Nov 21 07:15 |
DaemonFC | consumer electronics are only meant to have a service life of about 5 years tops | Nov 21 07:15 |
DaemonFC | there's still people slugging it out on 10 year old PCs or old console TV sets built in the 80s | Nov 21 07:16 |
oiaohm | Basically make sure the LCD screen has a good controller DaemonFC prevents lots of head aches latter. | Nov 21 07:16 |
DaemonFC | lots of them from the circumstantial evidence | Nov 21 07:16 |
Diablo-D3 | or dont buy a TV | Nov 21 07:16 |

Diablo-D3 | they make 42" and larger computer monitors | Nov 21 07:16 |

oiaohm | No controller short cutting. | Nov 21 07:17 |

DaemonFC | I won't buy anything that says Proscan, RCA, GE, or Sony | Nov 21 07:18 |
DaemonFC | I may consider buying a Vizio set | Nov 21 07:18 |
DaemonFC | not sure who makes them, but my aunt and uncle bought one at Walmart while I was with them one night, it's a nice TV | Nov 21 07:19 |
oiaohm | Really the controller board is all important to how annoying it is. | Nov 21 07:19 |

oiaohm | Ie that is what will drive you nuts with a PC if that is wrong. | Nov 21 07:21 |
DaemonFC | Proscan, GE, and RCA are all one company, and they fired all the people working for them in the USA including my dad | Nov 21 07:21 |
oiaohm | Even worse are ones that don't answer screen sizes at All to the OS. | Nov 21 07:21 |
DaemonFC | so I will never buy from them | Nov 21 07:21 |
