<0> honey: Blame iTunes.
<1> |Jef|: the bug we discussed last week, in case you're interested: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=187394
<2> cds, blame whoever's using it!
<0> honey: It's good... if oly it didn't give you mp4.
<3> 0x736D7264 = SMRD
<4> I hate to interject, but mp4 is superior in almost every quantifiable way
<2> cds, look, it's dead simple. you install mplayer's basic codec pack. it's one download. you put it in /usr/lib/win32. it's done.
<4> Surround channel support and radically higher quality at the same bitrate being two obvious examples
<2> brad[], excepting... universal playback.
<0> honey: Downloading.
<3> brad[]: free codec availabilty if easier to quantify than sound quality. ;)
<5> Harms: okay... well upstream bug which means it will be eventually fixed in an update fedora kernel at some point
<4> ffmpeg plays mp4 no problem.
<4> As does VLC
<2> brad[], and i'm no zealot. i use mp3s :)
<6> software patents are greeeeeaaaaat because greed is good.
<4> honey: Ah, so you're an mp3 zealot? :P
<5> zcat: but they get in the way of my greed
<2> actually.... :)
<2> yes! frankly. i can play them anywhere.
<4> I can play mp4 everywhere
<0> honey: Didn't work.
<2> but i can hear booing from the crowd so i'll retire
<4> Haven't found a single computer/device that won't play them
<2> cds, i really don't think i can deal with "didn't work" errors :)
<0> Cannot find codec for audio format 0x736D7264.
<0> Read DOCS/HTML/en/codecs.html!
<2> brad[], well, for a start, cds can't play them. help him out and prove it :)
<3> Aha, SMRD is apples DRM files
<2> cds, permissions on /usr/lib/win32?
<0> her :)
<3> two evils in one
<2> sorry her :) it's so easy to ***ume.
<0> drwxr-sr-x 2 root root 4096 Apr 1 20:32 .
<2> i almost always say "s/he" and get a very swift "I'M A HE!"
<5> honey: we need a non gender pronoun
<7> Hi, Has anyone got mod_mono working with Fedora 5?
<3> |Jef|: it/the
<2> cds, weeeeird permissions :) chmod 755 /usr/lib/win32
<8> |Jef|: one exists but I don't know what it is
<2> cds, and check contents are 544
<2> 644
<5> AndyCap: that can not also be used for objects
<1> |Jef|: $person
<5> Harms: not a pronoun
<2> |Jef|, hir is i think it and no-one uses it. i use "them"
<0> honey: They're all different.
<1> functionally, it is a pronoun
<5> honey: hir? is an actual word?
<0> honey: How do I change them all?
<2> cds, sounds a mess. just make them all 644
<9> there've been lots of suggestions for gender-neutral pronouns.
<2> chmod 644 /usr/lib/win32/*
<9> none of them have caught on.
<1> they/them/their is actually the most natural
<2> Em, |Jef| yes. hir is one, there are many
<10> Sonar_Gal, with regards to the weather, as of presently, follows an identical pattern :)
<3> |Jef|: let's introduce variable parsing in irc. and so you write $subject $object and I can set /*** in the client and have it expand properly
<0> honey: Nutin'
<10> You sent it up to us! :\
<5> Harms: person takes articles like "the" or "a" it is not functionaly a pronoun
<2> and i agree with Harms, i always use "them". it's not ungrammatical, actually
<8> http://www.orionsarm.com/linguistics/pronouns.html
<0> honey: Same thing.
<2> cds, nuttin's what?
<9> honey, you ARE british, so you can't be authorative on grammar. >_>
<2> Em, we *invented* it!
<0> honey: Same error.
<1> who knows english better than the english?
<11> Daveman, you in the NJ, Philly area?
<0> honey: I do want essential, yes?
<2> cds, so the user can definitely read the files in /usr/lib/win32 now?
<8> Americans because we perfected it :)
<2> cds, yep essential
<9> the english seem not to know english. "aluminium" indeed.
<0> honey: drwxr-xr-x 115 root root 102400 Apr 1 16:41 ..
<0> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 61952 Apr 1 20:32 acelpdec.ax
<1> Didact: americans speak a langauge called american. not to be confused with english.
<6> If in doubt, it's a HE, especially on the techside of the net
<2> Em, actually that's a good one. i think you're more right than use on aluminum
<6> Em, allyoominum
<5> Harms: there are actually several dilacts of american english
<2> nucular, it's pronounced nucular
<1> i know, |Jef|
<9> zcat, no no aluminIum
<0> Can we stop talking about languages and not make my screen scroll up?
<12> hiya |Jef|
<2> oh but i LOVE language
<8> Harms: Yes a more perfected form of english ;)
<0> honey: ping
<1> Didact: no, a sloppy form
<3> cds: you can't convert that file, it's got drm
<2> cds, this file isn't actually still encumbered by drm is it?
<2> ah :)
<0> honey: No clue.
<8> Harms: wanna fight about it?
<1> the world uses english (as first or second language), the US uses american
<0> How can I tell?
<2> ah :) thought it was de-drm'd. well you can't play it, apple's fault
<9> i love language even more. :x
<5> Harms: in fact a form of english spoken in the american south is actually closer to victorian english as it was spoken than any dilect of modern english in the UK
<0> Is it possible to de-drm it?
<2> |Jef|, gross oversimplification
<5> honey: sure
<3> cds: that's illegal in most jurisdictions in europe, and in the US.
<1> |Jef|: i take it you referr to 18th or 17th century english, not victorian; in which case, i also know that
<0> AndyCap: Okaay... ***uming it's not illegal. Is it possible to de-drm it?
<0> AndyCap: Either that or I'l download an MP3. One is more legal than the other.
<4> lol.. okay
<2> |Jef|, in a few areas, american south still carries some of the features of middle and late english that modern english lost (like -ize instead of -ise) but of course in many other areas it's entirely foreign
<13> hello
<13> How do I install kernel sources?
<1> yumdownloader --source kernel
<14> can anyone tell me? on Kopete how not to show your offline buddies?
<2> in general, spelling words like color and neighbor that way aren't a return to earlier english, but webster's fault i think. i don't think you could say american english is closer to british english of earlier centuries. just it retains a few interesting features.
<1> alexyx: and yumdownloader is in the package yum-utils
<2> like Em's aluminum
<9> that word has an interesting complex story.
<9> but uhh. that's a story for another time.
<2> yes, it's a good one
<1> most other languages use aluminium, right?
<2> "silly" has a fantastic history
<9> you're silly.
<2> the four-letter words are great, most steeped in mystery
<1> so aluminum is probably just a sloppy pronunciation by uneducated yankees
<13> Harms: but, what package I should use?
<13> yum install ???
<2> Harms, no i think it's closer to the original - it's one of those examples where the british supposedly "changed it for the better" later
<14> can anyone tell me? on Kopete how not to show your offline buddies?
<1> alexyx: yum install yum-utils, then yumdownloader --source kernel
<2> like webster did to american...
<14> oh nevermind i got it
<1> honey: it's aluminium in norwegian as well, at least
<2> is it? that's interesting, i thought they'd listen to americans more than us :)
<2> maybe it was exported most prominently during the empire
<15> TuffPoo: Settings -> Hide Offline Users
<16> Has anyone managed to run google earth on fedora?
<2> i'm going to start a campaign for british people to spell it "the internette"
<3> Pedrolito: yes, on fc4.
<2> Pedrolito, yes it works fine on fc5 here too. plugin?
<16> how did you guys do it?
<14> ok and on my linux itself the font for text is like very pixilated
<3> Pedrolito: wine
<2> installed everything i could think of then looked at it later :)
<14> ok and on my linux itself the font for text is like very pixilated how do you fix that?
<16> AndyCap, but how did you proceed, because it doesn't work on my machine?
<3> Pedrolito: don't remember, followed the hints in winehw.org's appdb iirc.
<14> straw: thanks man
<15> yup
