6:58:26 PM | bigkitty | hi
|
6:59:35 PM | Solbu | SashaR, RobbieF: What nick does the new co-host use? (So I can voice her too)
|
6:59:38 PM | agamotto | I seem to be doing fine with the YouTube version currently
|
7:00:29 PM | Cee_128d | Jeff is looking especially fetching this evening
|
7:00:55 PM | DJMike | LOL
|
7:01:10 PM | bigkitty | aaaa a mac
|
7:01:15 PM | MarshMan | Cee_128d: Isn't she uhhhh, he?
|
7:01:25 PM | MarshMan | Uhhh
|
7:01:28 PM | Solbu | Paraphrasing 2001: Oh my god, it's full of stars. (the password is)
|
7:02:01 PM | GWG | I like sweet potato fries.
|
7:02:13 PM | GWG | Skywriter64: I have a Brooklyn question for you.
|
7:02:14 PM | SheezTheYam | Awesome, sweet potato fries
|
7:02:20 PM | SheezTheYam | should be named
|
7:02:28 PM | SheezTheYam | Sweet Potato Fries
|
7:02:34 PM | SheezTheYam | capitalization is important, lol
|
7:02:36 PM | GWG | I make them in an air fryer along with zucchini fries.
|
7:02:46 PM | GWG | An air fryer is in reality a mini convection oven
|
7:02:56 PM | Solbu | We hear you.
|
7:03:32 PM | GWG | Humor?
|
7:03:39 PM | GWG | Okay...a guy walks into a bar.
|
7:03:40 PM | GWG | Ouch
|
7:03:59 PM | MarshMan | He must have stubbed his toe
|
7:04:19 PM | SheezTheYam | So many possibilities!
|
7:04:19 PM | Solbu | GWG: Or this one: I don't care if you get my UDP joke.
|
7:04:21 PM | Solbu | :-)
|
7:04:38 PM | MarshMan | That's an ouch!
|
7:04:54 PM | agamotto | Ok, stream with YouTube is glitching now
|
7:04:57 PM | Cee_128d | I refuse to make any more political jokes until the USA elects some new ones.
|
7:05:19 PM | MarshMan | Cee_128d: Yeah, baby!!!
|
7:05:38 PM | agamotto | Well, at least we aren't chanting for the President to go sleep with his mother yet...
|
7:05:45 PM | MarshMan | Running late.
|
7:05:47 PM | Skywriter64 | GWG,I just got back , I had to feed the dog. What is your question
|
7:05:51 PM | Cee_128d | agamotto, YT stream is working just fine here in the Frozen Tundra
|
7:06:08 PM | GWG | Skywriter64: Do you know anyone who might have venue space in Brooklyn for a tech event? Someone was trying to organize something.
|
7:06:19 PM | DJMike | Cee_128d Trump gonna LEAVE!
|
7:06:22 PM | GWG | And while I'd like them to do it in Queens, I think Brooklyn has more tech people
|
7:06:31 PM | GWG | DJMike: Everyone is going to leave eventually.
|
7:06:47 PM | ABQTKY | Cee_128d There are lots and lots of those political jokes out here. Please feel free to take some of them...anywhere but here. 8-|
|
7:06:58 PM | Cee_128d | DJMike, no the ultra Liberals need to leave. Trump is the best thing we've had in the last 10 years.
|
7:07:44 PM | MarshMan | Careful!
|
7:08:00 PM | DJMike | I guess some like him and some dont but ok :)
|
7:08:28 PM | agamotto | I, for one am tired of them on both sides
|
7:08:38 PM | GWG | I'm equal opportunity. I disliked Trump before he went into politics, as a New Yorker. I'm also equally tired of politicians in general.
|
7:08:40 PM | SheezTheYam | ;)
|
7:09:13 PM | MarshMan | Amen GWG
|
7:10:12 PM | Cee_128d | It's not that I'm a big Trump fan, it's that I so against the other guys. They enact laws that Trumps upholds and then blame him for doing it.
|
7:10:19 PM | DJMike | Someone said my name showed up in red but it came from no one lol
|
7:10:20 PM | Solbu | Nice. I got a stable kodi stream and the backstage stream running, and so far no dropouts.
|
7:10:21 PM | SheezTheYam | GWG?
|
7:10:50 PM | MarshMan | 19:10
|
7:10:54 PM | GWG | SheezTheYam: Yes?
|
7:11:54 PM | SheezTheYam | Ah, I see.
|
7:12:04 PM | Skywriter64 | Maybe Try in Queens, The Astoria beer garten on 21 ave ,I think .In brooklyn 20 st. & 5thAve
|
7:12:09 PM | GWG | Do you have hats?
|
7:12:38 PM | GWG | Skywriter64: We're looking for someone who might donate space. Another organization or such. But, will keep working
|
7:13:18 PM | Skywriter64 | What size do you need ?
|
7:13:56 PM | GWG | Skywriter64: The people organizing this are hoping for more, but the last New York even topped out at 10.
|
7:14:18 PM | GWG | The biggest ever similar event got 45, I think.
|
7:14:31 PM | GWG | For RobbieF and co, we proposed an Ontario event
|
7:14:32 PM | garywhite | What are you guys talking about?
|
7:15:34 PM | GWG | garywhite: Trying to find someone who might know of a place to look for someone I know trying to organize an event in the NY area.
|
7:15:44 PM | GWG | For games, I think I'll stick the classic arcade
|
7:16:00 PM | agamotto_ | I nearly wiped out play Dance Dance Revolution a few years ago
|
7:16:45 PM | GWG | Ah Florence...I was in a nice Vodafone store there
|
7:18:30 PM | GWG | New Jeff seems much less cynical than Old Jeff.
|
7:18:37 PM | Solbu | Hehe
|
7:18:43 PM | agamotto_ | Wow... Mediacom must be having problems today...
|
7:19:20 PM | GWG | Although, it's always confusing when a show recasts one of its characters with a new actor
|
7:21:07 PM | Cee_128d | GWG especially when they don't introduce here at the beginning of the show.
|
7:21:29 PM | GWG | And if your wife is too busy, it can provide a VR simulation.
|
7:21:53 PM | Cee_128d | ^ her not here
|
7:22:25 PM | MarshMan | Oh, SheezTheYam good
|
7:23:06 PM | GWG | Cee_128d: They never introduced it. Like the younger sister on Boy Meets World.
|
7:23:16 PM | agamotto_ | VR is interesting, but I think it will be another 10 years before it or AR will be useful to the average user.
|
7:24:22 PM | Cee_128d | Oops. So much for the Linux bias.
|
7:24:23 PM | SashaR | That is true... it's not very affordable really!
|
7:24:44 PM | agamotto_ | It isn
|
7:24:47 PM | SashaR | It's slight today
|
7:25:09 PM | agamotto_ | t so much the affordability as no software that I would use daily...
|
7:26:01 PM | Cee_128d | I'll invest in VR or AR as soon as it can do my laundry, cook me a meal, and then do the dishes.
|
7:26:40 PM | Cee_128d | IT Crowd FTW
|
7:26:46 PM | Solbu | RobbieF: A friend of mine did that, he typed google into google. :-)
|
7:28:36 PM | MarshMan | We did a Google Hangout together with Shizu
|
7:29:20 PM | Cee_128d | RobbieF, that is fine for the re broadcast, but it sucks for those of us watching live. You might want to introduce guests like that in the beginning as well for the live audience.
|
7:30:15 PM | agamotto_ | Not a problem that I have, thankfully.
|
7:30:41 PM | agamotto_ | I did read the book.. not sure about the
|
7:30:51 PM | agamotto_ | 'joy' thing
|
7:33:10 PM | MarshMan | RobbieF: So a messy room is a Jackson Pollock thing?
|
7:38:03 PM | SashaR | I am far messier than Dave... he is the organized one :)
|
7:38:37 PM | alpeck | I do stuff like...01) file/application...02) file/application... etc.
|
7:40:49 PM | Solbu | RobbieF: Also, Mac OSX is a Unix-like system.
|
7:41:01 PM | SashaR | I just hide all my desktop icons, then I "view" them when I need to find something
|
7:41:12 PM | Solbu | RobbieF: So most commands are the same as in GNU/Linux.
|
7:41:14 PM | agamotto_ | I am tidy w/o having OCD
|
7:44:37 PM | Solbu | So, how many google units just did an order via RobbieF's command? :-)
|
7:46:52 PM | GWG | Sorry, was just installing a WyzeCam Pan
|
7:48:15 PM | agamotto_ | I will consider a voice assistant when I can speak to it in Klingon... not too many ways to trigger that by accident.
|
7:48:41 PM | SashaR | awesome idea!!!
|
7:49:52 PM | GWG | agamotto_: paw 'oH
|
7:50:07 PM | Cee_128d | I'm waiting for them to allow the individual user to create their own name to access it. Sorry, but being stuck with Siri, Hey Google, etc. is just too insecure and lame.
|
7:50:16 PM | GWG | QI'yaH, google, jagh Qaw'
|
7:51:48 PM | MarshMan | Being organized isn't everything it's cracked up to be. You tend to crack up.
|
7:53:20 PM | MarshMan | SashaR: Create a folder called Carpet and sweep everything into it
|
7:53:29 PM | SashaR | YES!!!!!
|
7:53:40 PM | Cee_128d | I went so many sub folders deep that the file system couldn't handle file names that long.
|
7:53:54 PM | revdjenk | I have folders, sub folders for each subject
|
7:54:21 PM | agamotto_ | Good book for those who have no idea how to organize
|
7:54:25 PM | napa_polarbear | hwllo all
|
7:54:58 PM | alpeck | I tend to be very verbose with folder and filenames but this poses issues with Windows maximum path limits.
|
7:55:26 PM | Cee_128d | revdlenk I go 5 levels deep quite often. I think the furthest I've gone is 12 levels of sub folders.
|
7:55:52 PM | alpeck | anyone no file path limitation for Linux???
|
7:56:23 PM | revdjenk | alpeck: not that I've noticed
|
7:57:24 PM | agamotto_ | All ways of increasing the flow of chi in your life
|
7:57:58 PM | Cee_128d | alpeck unfortunately it doesn't matter what Linux can do as I absolutely have to use Windows for 90% of what I do. There are no Linux alternatives for the majority of programs I need.
|
7:58:13 PM | MarshMan | alpeck: filename: 255 characters Path: 4096
|
7:58:41 PM | GWG | I'm not sure Messianic is the word.
|
7:58:55 PM | alpeck | MarshMan: just found that as well
|
8:00:54 PM | GWG | I have nowhere too hang my hat
|
8:01:01 PM | GWG | Is this an indication I need to not have hats?
|
8:01:05 PM | alpeck | It appears Windows max. path length is 260...extremely short compared to Linux
|
8:01:12 PM | MarshMan | Hi Dave!
|
8:01:23 PM | revdjenk | Cee_128d: will they work in linux using wine? I use three windows programs daily, running them in linux
|
8:01:51 PM | Cee_128d | revdjenk. Nope.
|
8:02:21 PM | agamotto | Catch you lot later
|
8:02:28 PM | Cee_128d | They all need direct hardware access that isn't possible with Wine or in a VM
|
8:02:48 PM | napa_polarbear | on gaming, did u try steam
|
8:03:33 PM | MarshMan | RobbieF: I'm wearing my Cat5 shirt. NOT$6
|
8:03:36 PM | Cee_128d | napa_polarbear if that is aimed at me it isn't gaming related at all.
|
8:06:45 PM | revdjenk | Cee_128d: you must still have an interest in linux to be here? or have a system you use it with for non windows time?
|
8:07:35 PM | TheFu | Hey ya'll - happy 4th!
|
8:07:49 PM | GWG | I step away for one minute and we're talking about drugs?
|
8:08:13 PM | MarshMan | GWG: see what you can miss?
|
8:08:21 PM | Cee_128d | revdjenk I do use Linux at times and have since 1995. I just haven't been able to use it as my daily driver for about 7 years now.
|
8:08:52 PM | alpeck | TheFu: happy 4th! - please elaborate
|
8:09:17 PM | GWG | MarshMan: I was cutting pills in half earlier because it costs the same price for 10mg as it does for 20mg
|
8:09:36 PM | revdjenk | Cee_128d: and I've been linux only (except tax software) since 2006
|
8:09:54 PM | Cee_128d | alpeck USA Independence Day is July 4th. National Holiday here.
|
8:09:54 PM | TheFu | uh .... Independence Day for the US. Flipping burgers on the grill, got the firepit going for the family with marshmellows.
|
8:10:01 PM | alpeck | I have to use Windows for work
|
8:10:28 PM | alpeck | TheFu: sorry...Happy July the 4th from Canada
|
8:10:36 PM | TheFu | Linux paths are set in limits.h. If you recompile the kernel, libc and most gnu tools, you can make those limits whatever you want.
|
8:10:38 PM | GWG | I am suddenly wondering. When did I stop being the Young People
|
8:10:52 PM | GWG | After this, my tradition is to watch 1776
|
8:11:03 PM | MarshMan | GWG: on your third medication?
|
8:11:10 PM | Cee_128d | revdjenk: I was about then, but a change in circumstances and obligations put an end to that.
|
8:11:12 PM | TheFu | We read the US Constitution. Takes about 20min.
|
8:11:15 PM | GWG | Actually, I only have one.
|
8:11:26 PM | GWG | TheFu: It gets riveting at times, doesn't it?
|
8:11:34 PM | GWG | TheFu: Did you have a spirited debate as well?
|
8:11:36 PM | MarshMan | GWG: lucky you
|
8:12:19 PM | TheFu | GWG, It is a good reminder of what started all of this. Too bad so many people forget it is there and should be a living document.
|
8:12:26 PM | revdjenk | GWG: there are some intense moments in 1776
|
8:12:27 PM | Solbu | To prevent scam emails from seeing whether you've read the email, disable html rendering in the client.
|
8:12:59 PM | TheFu | Passwords?
|
8:13:08 PM | Cee_128d | If an online company, site, etc. stores your password and only encrypts it they are doing it wrong.
|
8:13:40 PM | GWG | revdjenk: Which ones?
|
8:13:52 PM | GWG | MarshMan: I had three. I worked it down
|
8:14:01 PM | GWG | revdjenk: I bought the Director's Cut
|
8:14:47 PM | TheFu | I don't know most of my passwords.
|
8:14:53 PM | revdjenk | GWG: the georgia rep singing about rum and slavery
|
8:15:06 PM | TheFu | Don't know any of my financial account logins either.
|
8:15:30 PM | GWG | revdjenk: Molasses to Rum to Slaves...oh what a beautiful waltz. You dance with us, we dance with you...in Molasses and Rum and Slaves....Who sails the ships out of Boston, laden with bibles and rum....
|
8:15:44 PM | Skywriter64 | Robbie F Refocus the camera
|
8:16:13 PM | TheFu | 2FA for your password manager is a good thing.
|
8:16:27 PM | TheFu | But never use an Android phone with that.
|
8:16:41 PM | revdjenk | Keepass user, here
|
8:17:30 PM | Cee_128d | My Credit Union's website won't allow integration with any password managers. They claim that lowers your security. It won't allow 2FA either. And they limit passwords to 10 characters and only letters and numerals.
|
8:17:55 PM | GWG | Cee_128d: Find a new Credit Union?
|
8:18:06 PM | GWG | revdjenk: Good system. I use it for some things
|
8:18:15 PM | revdjenk | Cee_128d: ^
|
8:18:54 PM | GWG | revdjenk: I'm keying up the blu-ray
|
8:19:04 PM | Cee_128d | GWG: Not an option where I live. The two banks here are even worse. Pitfalls of living in a small town.
|
8:19:14 PM | GWG | Cee_128d: Which town? Or region?
|
8:19:56 PM | revdjenk | Cee_128d: you should still be able to use your PM and just copy/paste?
|
8:20:01 PM | GWG | RobbieF: Don't say the A-word
|
8:20:41 PM | TheFu | My bank is 3 states away. I haven't been physically inside it since the early 1990s.
|
8:20:43 PM | Cee_128d | Northern Wisconsin. Only two CUs in the county and WI requires members to live in the same county as the CU. I don't drive so a CU that's 25 miles away isn't a realistic option.
|
8:20:59 PM | GWG | I am with Ally Bank. I've never been physically inside it
|
8:21:37 PM | GWG | revdjenk: Thanks to you, I'm starting my singing early.
|
8:21:50 PM | revdjenk | hee hee GWG
|
8:22:13 PM | GWG | revdjenk: Is it depressing I know the whole score?
|
8:22:18 PM | TheFu | There is a branch of my bank nearby, but I cannot physically get to it. Armed guards at the gate and I'm not authorized anymore.
|
8:22:29 PM | Cee_128d | GWG: I had a different CU when I moved here and it caused way too many problems so I switched to the local one.
|
8:22:44 PM | GWG | TheFu: Sounds like the data center I used to have a server in
|
8:22:59 PM | TheFu | Probably more secure. DoD location.
|
8:23:06 PM | revdjenk | GWG: nah! A niece and I can almost recreate much of Holy Grail...
|
8:24:05 PM | MarshMan | GWG: Bring out your dead!
|
8:24:17 PM | revdjenk | TheFu: armed guards who keep you out of the bank? yikes
|
8:24:38 PM | revdjenk | MarshMan: I'm feeling better!
|
8:24:40 PM | TheFu | revdjenk, no. To keep me off the military installation.
|
8:24:50 PM | revdjenk | TheFu: hee hee
|
8:24:53 PM | GWG | Really Great At? As in vacuuming up people's personal data?
|
8:25:18 PM | TheFu | MarshMan, Soylent Green?
|
8:25:35 PM | GWG | revdjenk: Bravely bold Sir Robin, rode forth from Camelot. He was not afraid to die, no brave Sir Robin. He was not at all afraid to be killed in nasty ways. Brave Brave Brave Brave Sir Robin.
|
8:25:43 PM | MarshMan | TheFu: Holy Grail.
|
8:25:54 PM | MarshMan | revdjenk: LOL
|
8:26:20 PM | GWG | revdjenk: He was not in the least bit scared to be mashed into a pulp. Or to have his eyes gouged out, and his elbows broken, to have his kneecaps nipped or his body burnt away...
|
8:26:42 PM | revdjenk | GWG: stahp! I wouldn't
|
8:26:52 PM | TheFu | Does GPS work on Mars? Is there a stable magnetic field planet-wide?
|
8:26:54 PM | GWG | Why is she a Yam?
|
8:27:02 PM | GWG | Is this about the sweet potato fries?
|
8:27:04 PM | revdjenk | TheFu: none on mars
|
8:27:23 PM | GWG | Okay...now 1776
|
8:27:37 PM | GWG | RobbieF: Get your butt to Mars.
|
8:27:44 PM | TheFu | Well, 2-3 satellites could make GPS work every few hours there.
|
8:28:37 PM | SashaR | Goodnight all my darlings :)
|
8:28:45 PM | revdjenk | nite SashaR
|
8:28:47 PM | GWG | RobbieF: When you all stop talking, I'm going to watch a musical
|
8:28:54 PM | TheFu | g'night SashaR
|
8:28:58 PM | Solbu | SashaR, RobbieF: I'm happy to report that the kodi stream is finally stable.
|
8:29:31 PM | TheFu | Marshmellow time before fireworks!
|
8:30:40 PM | GWG | I haven't watched this movie since I upgraded to 4K
|
8:30:42 PM | GWG | Should be fun
|
8:30:49 PM | revdjenk | except for the one in the middle a great shot
|
8:31:27 PM | TheFu | GWG, is that the 1972 version?
|
8:32:43 PM | GWG | TheFu: Is there any other?
|
8:32:55 PM | GWG | I did see it on Broadway with Brent Spiner, but no video of that
|
8:33:43 PM | GWG | If I'm really crazy, I'll watch the director's commentary afterward
|
8:39:31 PM | revdjenk | until next week, friends
|
8:39:37 PM | Solbu | :-)
|
