Comments:
<digidog> rather than someone who might likely replace my tcp/ip stack
<Hawkinss> wunder: also take a look at MS antispyware and www.free-av.com
<Hawkinss> + firefox.
<wunder> ok how about this one...
<wunder> i'll be straight up and honest. I have a legitimate copy of Windows XP. Two copies for each machine... every time I try and format my machine, re-install, etc.. the original XP disks crap out... if I use a downloaded version, it works no problem.. what do I do? (serious answers and non of this pirating ****)
<digidog> call microsoft
<wunder> even though I got this from MDG.. which all of their disks are like that.
<SmerdyKoV> what exactly IS directx
<digidog> i dont know what MDG is
<Badtzmaru> haha
<Badtzmaru> shaun of the dead is much better in english
<wunder> a very very horrible computer chain supplier like Dell.
<Badtzmaru> erm
<wunder> well Dell is better, but in the sense of a supplier chain of computer systems.
<Badtzmaru> since when is dell horrible?
<wunder> this is why i corrected myself
<Badtzmaru> you said better
<wunder> I use two Dell Power Edge 4800s
<Badtzmaru> that still implies horrible
<Badtzmaru> but better than whoever you are talking about
<wunder> percisely... English is my 3rd language.
<Hawkinss> i had this customer who was buying xp pro, office, activesync for like $50 a piece on a pirate site. i did a check for his serials on the net and they came up right away as being pirated.
<Badtzmaru> I use hundreds of dells
<Badtzmaru> Id take them over most other OEM's without question for the price
<wunder> so what do you do then? I mean all MS will tell you is to buy another copy.
<Badtzmaru> yes, thats what you do
<Badtzmaru> and replace the serial
<wunder> but you still lose out on the $50.
<Badtzmaru> ****s for you
<Badtzmaru> cost of business
<Hawkinss> Dell is awesome if you buy their mid to high end stuff
<wunder> ive been eyeing their workstations actually.
<Hawkinss> their lower end stuff seems to break after a year or so.
<wunder> but thats how it goes... you want cheap you get cheap.
<SmerdyKoV> does anyone know what DirectX is
<Hawkinss> yeah. i have an Dimension XPS and it ****ing rocks
<SmerdyKoV> by definition
<wunder> ive only actually seen pictures/read about it
<Hawkinss> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_x
<Hawkinss> its a little pricey but if you like gaming and excellent performance then it is worth the hefty price
<Hawkinss> i cant wait til they redesign the gaming line.
<nerp> now that he's gone, i'll say this:
<nerp> don't listen to him. :D
<nerp> thier gaming machines **** balls.
<nerp> their
<nerp> sabll
<nerp> skcs
<wunder> hehe. i build my own machines.
<wunder> theyre great if you want a `quick fix'.
<nerp> for quiet energy efficent office machines, they're great.
<nerp> if you're power hungry, you can do better.
<wunder> yeah personally im so bored of Intel technology
<nerp> i'm an amd guy.
<nerp> love my opteron. :D
<wunder> I want to go there, heh... just not educated on those machines enough yet... i know their past past.. but i fell out of the loop for 3-4 years
<wunder> i was looking into getting a quad opetron mobo... i believe its opetron
<nerp> just get a dual core opteron
<wunder> get 1 processor.. as the years go by just upgrade... then shove 64gb ram overtime, hehe.. make a nice closet server in the end
<nerp> or run dual dual core if you need to
<wunder> i do heavy intensive graphics, I photoshop at 500-1000" full scale, 72-300dpi !!!
<nerp> is photoshop multithreaded yet?
<wunder> it takes a week for a stupid gradient
<wunder> i imagine
<wunder> good question though, heh.
<Canuck_> use genuine fractals plugin?
<Badtzmaru> erm
<Badtzmaru> dpi means nothing
<Badtzmaru> its just for printing
<wunder> I do actually.. i use it, but
<wunder> exactly
<wunder> I run a 63"
<Canuck_> printing 300 dpi at 63 wide format is too much res
<Canuck_> 150-200 is enough and more than enouh for detail at a few feet away
<Badtzmaru> depends on source file
<wunder> for sure, agreed.
<wunder> exactly
<wunder> badtzmaru, exactly.
<Badtzmaru> a 4mp raw file I wouldnt want to print that at 200 =)
<wunder> canuck_; you seem to know a little bit about lfp...
<Canuck_> run a small print shop, do some wide format off the hp 42"
<wunder> have you worked with lit up signage?
<wunder> nice, its fun isnt it?
<windopain> are there any options for organizing files w/ metadata? i'd love to be able to place files in several categories and be able to find them through those instead of having only one directory as an option.... i thought about writing an app myself, then heard of winfs, and figure it'll be a while before MS produces a solution...
<digidog> sharepoint
<SmerdyKoV> when you get a fresh new hd from the store and you put it in your computer do you have to format it before it will recognize it?
<XTR> Ethereal.
<Badtzmaru> you have to partition and format it
<Badtzmaru> yes
<SmerdyKoV> how do you do that?
<SmerdyKoV> without installing windows onit
<Badtzmaru> with a bootdisk of some sort
<SmerdyKoV> sheet
<SmerdyKoV> so pretty much just use the windows disc then?
<BaRFMaN> smerdy:is it a secondary hd?
<SmerdyKoV> indeed
<BaRFMaN> you can partition and format within windows
<SmerdyKoV> oh ok
<SmerdyKoV> within windows or with the windows disc?
<BaRFMaN> within windows
<BaRFMaN> rightclick my computer, select manage, then choose disk management
<SmerdyKoV> ah
<SmerdyKoV> that's what i thought
<SmerdyKoV> gracias
<nerp> man i'm not gonna sleep much during the olympics
<nerp> I love watching downhill skiing
<digidog> ok
<XTR> Full Metal Jacket.

<cHiKNPad> 7.3a
<NateD_wor> ??
<NateD_wor> 7.3?
<cHiKNPad> heh
<cHiKNPad> i have no idea
<NateD_wor> figured
<skoalwork> I got an email from my guy in charge of buildings and grounds. Here's the sentence that bothered me:
<skoalwork> Shut down computers, monitors, scanners and printers at the end of each day. Even in “sleep” mode computers use 50-300 watts; if this is not feasible, at least turn off the monitor. Monitors consume 80% of computer energy.
<skoalwork> 50-300 watts for a machine that's asleep?
<skoalwork> I forgot to mention: Most of my machines are SFF Dells with 180watt PSUs.
<justifier> no
<skoalwork> and 15" LCDs.
<skoalwork> This guy is on CRACK.
<skoalwork> There's NO WAY they consume that much idle.
<skoalwork> It's more like 15-30 or so.
<skoalwork> Probably on the lower end of that for SFF boxes.
<justifier> in idle the average comp consumes the same amount as a lightbulb
<skoalwork> What size lightbulb ? :)
<justifier> lol
<justifier> the average 100waatt im gessing
<cHiKNPad> you goto specs on mfg websites they give you the watts on sleep mode
<Jet> can rsync be run in an "always on" mode where it watches for file system changes and syncs them?
<cHiKNPad> cron?
<Jet> well, ya, I was wondering if it could be run as a daemon or something, just watching for file system changes
