06:58:08 PM_Jot_ Hillary could do sign language at least, so it would be sensible to some
06:58:40 PM_Jot_ There totally is no script (paper)! The paper is a lie, I bet
07:00:06 PMSashaD The paper is a lie
07:00:40 PM_Jot_ newsflash: RobbieF claims he can think. That is new.
07:02:21 PM_Jot_ streaming videos from security-cameras has been happening for years already, tht
07:02:24 PM_Jot_ not really news :)
07:02:42 PM_Jot_ the last thing wasn't really new either, forgot what it was :)
07:03:44 PM_Jot_ I tried paying attention, but I couldn't afford the interest
07:03:48 PMSashaD Hey judgy judgerson jot
07:05:12 PM_Jot_ The affiliate links are here: http://www.category5.tv/affiliate-links.php but I just shop through http://shop.category5.tv and send leftover money to http://cat5.tv/c
07:05:35 PMSashaD You are awesome :)
07:06:25 PM_Jot_ RobbieF, did you figure out why certain files wouldn't work last time?
07:06:50 PMnapa_polarbear hello All
07:07:28 PMKelseyJ welcome!
07:07:35 PM_Jot_ the enquiring public just wants to know :)
07:07:54 PM_Jot_ at least sometime, so next week or so is fine
07:08:47 PMNick-devalda Hey people. Good luck 😊
07:09:05 PMtic-toc Why doesn't web based chat room work on Chrome?
07:09:31 PMNick-devalda im using chrome on an ipad
07:09:48 PMNick-devalda seems fine
07:10:07 PMtic-toc The show works but the chat room doesn't
07:10:10 PM_Jot_ Not sure, it should work, but it may be they changed something, at least there are other browsers, and you can use an IRC client as well
07:11:19 PM_Jot_ so that link for fancybox is http://fancyapps.com
07:12:14 PMtic-toc I'm on my windows machine and chat room only works on IE
07:12:20 PMNick-devalda its just computers, they pretend to be your friend then..... When ur not looking.... Bam!
07:13:14 PMSashaD I agree wholeheartedly nick devalda
07:14:37 PMtic-toc Computers are like women... they pretend to be your friend, then BAM...lol
07:14:49 PMSashaD Hey :(
07:15:05 PMtic-toc :)

07:15:43 PMNick-devalda 😃 women don't hibernate or turn off
07:16:23 PMtic-toc Evidently you haven't met my ex....
07:16:55 PMSashaD Oh dear...
07:17:09 PMtic-toc :)
07:17:18 PMSashaD So... How's the weather (obvious subject change)

07:20:22 PMNick-devalda fancybox..... Sounds so wrong lol
07:20:53 PM_Jot_ it is about 5c here, so summer-weather for you :)
07:20:59 PMtic-toc Why thank you Sasha,
07:22:02 PMNick-devalda its 12:21am here in the uk, so it's cooooold and dark.
07:22:36 PMSashaD It's-3 here, and snowing yet again
07:23:51 PM_Jot_ RobbieF couldn't afford paying the co-hosts, they are invaluable
07:24:14 PMKelseyJ Why thank you Jot :)
07:24:44 PMSashaD Aww... Thanks :)
07:26:45 PMJoeInNH Hello Everyone!
07:27:03 PMKelseyJ Hello!
07:27:49 PMJoeInNH I am talking on IRC on my newly installed arch linux on my very old P4 HP Pavillion laptop
07:28:11 PMSashaD Nice!!
07:28:13 PMJoeInNH It's really quiet in here tonight
07:28:28 PMJoeInNH I haven't got the video working yet.
07:28:40 PMJoeInNH So that is running on my Win7 machine
07:29:08 PM_Jot_ the address is http://live.cat5.tv
07:29:30 PMNick-devalda Im in bed, watching on Roku, my wife is snoring by there <------ so glad I got an ipad
07:30:23 PM_Jot_ I have a question. What question should I ask?
07:30:40 PMKelseyJ Thats a very good question
07:30:55 PMKelseyJ you should ask all of them
07:31:07 PMKelseyJ Just ask every question
07:31:15 PMJoeInNH I wonder if TNFrank is burried in snow
07:31:19 PM_Jot_ I already know the answer to the question of life, the universe and everything though
07:31:19 PMRobbieF Wooooo!
07:31:20 PMRobbieF hehe
07:31:22 PMRobbieF having fun?
07:31:46 PM_Jot_ wait, we're supposed to drink coffee? Darn, I made tea
07:32:00 PMJoeInNH I have having loads of fun. Now I am 100% watching and chating on Arch Linux E19
07:32:22 PMJoeInNH I drink, but not coffee, so I am with you
07:32:29 PMNick-devalda Tea? Tequila is good for the soul
07:32:55 PM_Jot_ hey, that's the same combination as I use on my luggage!
07:33:08 PMtic-toc Tequila is a good paint stripper
07:33:35 PMNick-devalda its awesome at everything
07:34:07 PMtic-toc awesome for a hangover, I know that for a fact
07:34:53 PMJoeInNH This question is directed to everyone using linux. What irc clients are you using?
07:35:21 PMNick-devalda such a simple solution to the webcam issue but people trust hardware when they purchase it and don't feel the necessity to add security measures. Education is the way forward
07:37:28 PMNick-devalda maybe it's not hackers, u can download 3rd party software to use a webcam over the net and 'trust' the makers not to abuse their position
07:39:02 PM_Jot_ Free isn't always bad, I download free episodes of the free website category5.tv all the time!
07:40:50 PMNick-devalda Free is virtually non existent when it's a non trusted source lol.
07:41:27 PM_Jot_ yeah, a non-trusted source isn't very good :) but its hard to determine who to trust on the net
07:42:40 PMtic-toc sell it
07:43:21 PMNick-devalda Well? Given that u can't even trust Microsoft 😝
07:43:52 PMtic-toc You can't trust any of them
07:44:09 PMNick-devalda There's a company called trust..... Hmmmmmm
07:44:19 PM_Jot_ google blocking ads for pay is a lie, you still see all the ads, they just say 'thank you for paying'
07:52:15 PMGuest_5763 Microsoft charges 7 bucks for Mindcraft after my nephews got hooked on it.
07:52:43 PM_Jot_ Mindcraft hasn't been free for a very long time?
07:52:56 PMSashaD Nothing is free :(
07:53:32 PM_Jot_ we can see you sometimes for almost free, thanks for that :)
07:53:56 PMJoeInNH Try Minetest
07:54:04 PMJoeInNH It is free
07:54:26 PMJoeInNH You get to decide what you install for mods
07:54:29 PMNick-devalda Climb trees...... It's free.
07:54:33 PMGuest_5763 oh i didnt know that. I just know a few months ago he was playing. But today he said he can no longer play
07:55:05 PMGuest_5763 minetest will do
07:56:00 PMSashaD I'm happy to give my time for free, because the pay off of having such a great community of friends makes it more than worth it
07:56:08 PMSashaD Then I climb trees
07:56:29 PM_Jot_ don't lick the tree though, its too cold for that
07:56:52 PMNick-devalda I woke up at the top of a tree after a night out 😊
07:57:15 PM_Jot_ sounds like you had an interesting night
07:57:24 PMSashaD Really?! That's insanely impressive
07:57:30 PMJoeInNH Anybody see the pictures of upstate New Yorks snow?
07:57:37 PMNick-devalda i wish I remembered more tho
07:58:02 PMJoeInNH Were you with friends? They might be able to show you pics
07:58:11 PMtic-toc tequila does it every time
07:58:30 PMNick-devalda i was in Holland.... Explains a lot
07:58:57 PMtic-toc Did you wake up wearing wooden shoes too?
07:58:58 PM_Jot_ maybe thats why they got rid of trees in much of my city
07:59:25 PM_Jot_ nah, he climbed away when we tried to put them on him, and we didn't bother staying around
07:59:55 PMJoeInNH Did you climb over to see over the dikes?
08:00:05 PMJoeInNH To see the water
08:00:05 PMNick-devalda lol, I am such a hippy
08:00:21 PMGuest_5763 Is Mate a low resource desktop?
08:00:56 PMNick-devalda goodnight peeps, I got work in 6 hours :)
08:00:58 PMJoeInNH Currently, I am using Enlightenment. I know that Cinnamon and gnome 3 are not
08:00:59 PM_Jot_ its a continuation of gnome 2, so not too bad
08:01:25 PMSashaD Have a great week chat room :)
08:01:27 PMWhiskey_Zero Thanks Robbie, see everybody next week.
08:01:30 PMJoeInNH I haven't tried mate yet on my ancient computer
08:01:31 PMtic-toc Yes Mate is pretty low
08:01:32 PM_Jot_ you too SashaD
08:01:43 PMJoeInNH You too SashaD
08:02:12 PMGuest_5763 I have pinguy on my laptop but it is just not powerful enough
08:02:36 PMJoeInNH I am stuck with the open source drivers for my video becuase the onboard graphics is so old
08:02:58 PMJoeInNH If mate doesn't work, try enlightenment
08:03:09 PMGuest_5763 okay
08:03:10 PMtic-toc Point Linux works well on older hardware for me
08:03:39 PMJoeInNH I am using that on my Pentium 4 with Radeon 9600 Turbo Pro (rv350/m10 chhipset)
08:04:27 PMJoeInNH Since it's a laptop, I can't replace the ancient graphics driver.
08:04:46 PMGuest_5763 I may try point tonight this rebooting is getting old
08:04:52 PMtic-toc You might want to check, amd graphics cards are trouble sometimes
08:06:00 PMJoeInNH If it is old like mine, the open source drivers may be your only bet. What is the onboard graphics card?
08:08:10 PMGuest_5763 intel gm45
08:09:56 PMJoeInNH nvidia?
08:11:26 PMABQTKY To anyone down here in the USA, have a great Thanksgiving Day! To everyone else - youse guys should also have a great Thanksgiving Day!!
08:12:10 PMtic-toc version 1.0.7 for that intel
08:12:18 PMJoeInNH you to ab
08:12:47 PMJoeInNH According to online intel seems to support open source drivers pretty well
08:13:18 PMABQTKY NH, eh? That's definitely back there in civilization!! 8-)
08:13:45 PMJoeInNH Where are you ab?
08:14:13 PMABQTKY Albuquerque, NM...but FROM Noo Yawk State.
08:15:28 PMJoeInNH I think I can forgive you being a New Yorker... ;)
08:16:32 PMJoeInNH NM nice this time of the year?
08:17:08 PMABQTKY Thanks, Joe. Could be worse. I'm from not far from Noo Joizey. Cold enough for me out here. As they say, 'it's a dry cold.'
08:18:59 PMJoeInNH lol. First big storm Wed into early T-Day
08:19:16 PMABQTKY Enjoy. 8-|
08:19:29 PMJoeInNH Cold huh...what is it 50?
08:19:53 PMJoeInNH Thanks, I will only have to shovel if I am at my parents house
08:20:15 PMABQTKY Late afternoon it could be up in the 50's. Not early AM, though.
08:20:39 PMJoeInNH And then I can use a nice big snow blower...strong enough to handle this wet snow
08:21:08 PMJoeInNH 40s & 50s is shorts weather up here right now
08:21:35 PMABQTKY Wet snow is hard to deal with. But with the blower you may get less of it down the back of your neck.
08:22:03 PMRobbieF Well, that was fun.
08:22:04 PMJoeInNH Yeah. It's odd to have wet snow this early in the season.
08:22:14 PMJoeInNH Great job robbie
08:22:30 PMABQTKY Robbie, the snow or the PHP stuff??
08:23:26 PMJoeInNH Hey robbie, if you ever need a topic for a show, you can do a show on Minetest. It's an opensource game "inspired by Minecraft" that runs on windows, linux, and I think Mac
08:24:21 PMJoeInNH no=now
08:24:36 PMABQTKY Good.
08:25:02 PMJoeInNH Arch was not as hard to install as I thought it would be.
08:25:17 PMJoeInNH Just required a lot of reading and research
08:26:46 PMABQTKY I have Arch on an ARM device, not on a 'normal' computer.
08:27:31 PMJoeInNH I wanted to learn what was going on, so installing arch was less of a headache than trying to install gentoo
08:28:55 PMJoeInNH I would not try to install it if it was my only computer
08:29:14 PMABQTKY Everything has to be done on the ARM device (TO the ARM device?) via command line. Makes for a very slow, but hopefully effective learning experience.
08:32:43 PMJoeInNH I like the command line. I still use pacman / packer to install stuff on my system
08:32:57 PMJoeInNH I research online then grab the packackage
08:34:06 PMABQTKY I'm about as skilled with a Linux command line as I was with CP/M...which is to say 'forget about it!'
