<0> And you expected what sort of response? Go read the FAQ that's mentioned in the topic
<1> m34p?
<2> D-side, you there?
<2> howdy all
<3> I am so bored
<4> 'llo
<3> hello
<5> ok, I'm back.
<6> ok, siglite good day and happy b-day,,,
<3> yum
<3> I need a good pretzel
<7> well, I forgot that claim jumper is about the ONLY place which has clam chowder on the menu all the time
<3> is it really clam chowder or just potato soup with some clams thrown in?
<5> ok
<5> aaaah yes.
<7> real clam chowder
<5> Eterm. Yay.
<3> yum
<7> yeah...was pretty tasty...wasn't that hungry, so a bowl of clam chowder was enuf to fill me up
<8> sig, db2
<7> oh yeah, I forgot you could make bouncy walls
<3> I need to smoke some pork to make a bean soup soon
<2> hello all
<8> dogbert2: I liked burying people under dirt ;)
<7> zez...a good black bean soup is excellent
<7> aka...ton of dirt weapon
<8> you bet
<2> Ok, I have a question, do you REALLY have to have phone service to have DSL?
<8> erased23: not here
<3> erased: yes and no
<9> We've got about 30 lesbians standing around outside. heh
<9> erased23: Depends.
<8> erased23: technically, no. whether your telco will allow it, depends.
<3> you need a phone number to be billed to. But I have had my phone not work for a week but dsl ran great
<8> zez: no, they ***ign a dummy #
<3> sbc/at&t needs a real telephone line as far as I know
<8> zez: like I said, depends on the telco
<7> zez...lobster == yum!
<3> in USA there isn't much choice anymore
<8> I pay $5-ish a mo to rent the line from Bell, and whatever to whichever ISP I choose.
<2> I hate not having the option of cable!
<3> dammit dogbert2, where do you live? I had canned salmon tonight. didn't quite work the magic for me
<2> I wanted to switch to Earthlink DSL and cancel my phone line and current DSL, but Earthlink is saying I have to have a phone line
<7> i'm in vegas...according to wikipedia, the largest lobster ever caught was 44.4lbs :)
<8> it's sweet just doing VoIP, and telling the telco to go feck themselves
<3> lol eating fresh seafood in vegas
<8> though in my case, I use a cellphone
<3> that is so crazy
<3> if you think about it
<8> put $10 worth of time on there a month, and I get a portable phone to boot
<2> anyone know how to unlock cell phones?
<2> that's my next problem
<2> lol
<8> I make few enough calls where I don't even use that $10/mo ;)
<2> the good news is my TIVO hack worked like a charm
<8> so I'm continually growing a balance
<8> If I'm gonna gab gab on the phone, then I'll just switch to a landline. Or VoIP. Works out.
<7> zez...you can get live lobster out of the tanks here...
<3> I know. In the middle of a desert
<7> yeah, does sound crazy...one guy who hangs out in #politics lives in alaska...gets all the best seafood (grrrr)
<3> I am so bored
<7> zez...nothing to do, i'm housesitting for my brother until tues morning
<0> unbored yet?
<0> christ ... I'm not even exciting enough to wake someone up :(
<3> I could try and fix my moms windows box but I'll just get pissed off again
<0> lol
<7> hehehe....i'm always tired after eating dinner...
<0> gravity causing issues?
<3> anyone know of a nice digital camera for < $100?
<7> gah...I hate digital cameras...
<3> I need something for taking stupid pictures of my 2 year old. 35mm is killing me on cost. I have a ton of good cameras for when I feel artsy
<7> how is a 35mm costly...do you shoot a lot of film?
<5> processing costs a lot.
<7> siglite...I can develop my own film :)
<5> dogbert2: he probably doesn't have a color lab in his basement. And as such, ramping put to put one in his basement would Cost A Lot.
<7> true...
<5> the enlarger alone justifies a bling DSLR.
<7> siglite, I bought my enlarger in the 80's
<5> I have a B&W enlarger down there collecting dust.
<3> I have a nice 35mm slr setup and a nice digital slr but most of the pics I take are with a little snappy since I can carry it around in the diaper bag
<7> siglite...mebbe they have a conversion kit :)
<3> but I'm going through a roll a day and for what these pictures are worth, digital is much more cost effective
<7> zez...then that makes more sense...
<3> I like my film slr much more than the digital slr
<5> dogbert2: if they're nikon, (AI/AIS mounts) they'll meter just fine on a D50/70/100
<0> zez: I've got a kodak easyshare point and shoot (3.2MP) - it's good for point and shoot ... but that's about all it's good for.
<7> yeah, siglite, I know...all my stuff is AI, AI-S, or AI-P
<3> I really miss my old vivitar manual. I could take incredible pictures with that. But I guess using a camera for 20+ years will do that
<7> heh...it would be funny to have a D100 mounted to the 1200mm reflex telephoto @ f/11
<5> dogbert2: **** man, get a d100, you'll never look back.
<3> Now I have a canon AE-1 and a canon digital rebel
<7> siglite, how broke do I need to be in order to get one :)
<5> very
<3> the old vivitar with the needle meter kicks all their ***es according to me
<7> nodz...
<5> if that's a concern, the D50s and D70 bodies are fairly reasonable.
<5> I have a d50 and love it
<7> zez...that's the advantage of film slr over digital, my Nikon EM is 27 years old, and still shoots fine
<5> dad has a d100, it's awesome
<7> now many DSLR's will even be working in 27 years
<3> the manual shutter on the vivitar wore out
<5> I have my F2s in case I want to take pictures after the apocalypse.
<3> I'm having trouble understanding all the information these new cameras are tying to give me. Iwht my old one I could set all the setting perfect in a matter of seconds
<7> heh...the F2 gives ya a hard on :)
<3> does the kodak easyshare work in linux?
<2> hey siglite question for you
<2> where'd your nic come from?
<3> I don't want to be stuck with some windows only camera
<0> zez: pretty sure it's pptp - I do recall pulling the pics off in linux
<3> cool
<0> but, I did start using a card reader instead
<3> some of the cameras have "mouning bases" and that scares me
<2> siglite: ??
<3> mounting
<5> erased23: the P226 on my side with the trijicon nightsights.
<0> zez: I got the mounting base for the kodak as it was cheap ... makes an easy charging place (no plugs to plug in) but essetially it was an extension for the USB cable ...
<3> ok, cool
<2> siglite: :)
<2> I was hoping you'd say that
<3> I was looking at a kodak. I think it was one of the few with an optical zoom
<0> Oh - yes, definitely get an optical
<2> My collection is small, only a 229 and 239, but I love 'em
<3> there isn't any other kind
<0> mine was a gift ... digital zoom only ... one of my biggest gripes with it
<2> siglite: you hang out at sigforum at all?
<3> digital zoom just means "how bluury do you want your picture to be?"
<5> erased23: yeah, as "honda"
<7> zez...ya figured that out, didja?
<5> erased23: I haven't posted there in a while.
