<0> schitzo: or work from home with distractions? ;)
<1> Tron: I'll keep yo in mind though, if I end up writing something ugly
<0> schitzo: When I work from home, I usually don't work :)
<2> ksh: oh I do. I can usually get more done too
<1> ksh: that is preciscly why I don't work at home ,)
<0> wlfshmn: same here
<0> wlfshmn: I am too distracted at home
<1> ksh: yupp, I end up doing all the stuff I should do when I'm not at work but don't do because I don't want to waste the time when I'm not at work..
<1> ksh: err, if that makes sense
<1> hmm. you know, if I got a USB 2.0 hub, I could probably hide my computer under the desk instead of keeping it on top of it..
<3> wlfshmn: That's not ugly at all really ;)
<4> would a usb hub even work in linux?
<2> no. leenoux knows nothing about USB
<4> yeh
<4> you might not even have a unix driver
<3> I wish users would stop coming to me asking about fax lines. I don't care.
<3> dj_shadow: Then in that case this USB wireless mouse shouldn't be working flawlessly under Linux.
<3> dj_shadow: neither would my USB external hard drive.
<2> Tron: can I have a fax line?
<3> dj_shadow: Nor my USB joystick.
<2> it's all a figment of your imagination Tron .. There is no USB
<5> nor the USB link to my digital camera which appears to be working perfecly
<2> Tron: thanks.
<4> yeh
<4> u need a driver
<3> dj_shadow: GO away.
<1> Ka-bar: well, as long as he doesn't release, he should be fine ;)
<0> wlfshmn: I know what you mean...I do the same
<3> PolarWolf: By the way : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/30_St_Mary_Axe - that's the Gherkin.
<3> PolarWolf: Our offices are right next to the towering ugliness.
<6> is SUSE Linux 10.1 good?
<1> Tron: Someone needs to make a 200m tall condom ;)
<5> AbadB0y: read distrowatch.org and decide for yourself
<7> wlfshmn: Been using viagra as candy again, eh?
<3> wlfshmn: Hahahahaha! Yeah that would be funny.
<5> dj_shadow: I didn't need to install any drivers to make any of my USB stuff work on Fedora Core. It's already there and it just works, so go away.
<1> Tron: I recognize that entrance..
<1> Tron: it my feature in some movie I've watched but not bothered to remember..
<3> wlfshmn: Hmm?
<7> Tron: Ye gods, that's ugly
<0> *sigh*
<0> glad it's Friday
<3> PolarWolf: Yep.
<0> was a short week this week too, preceeded by a long weekend
<3> PolarWolf: I look out of my window, it looms at me, only about 10 metres from the window.
<1> Tron: the entrance to the gherkin
<1> Tron: never mind ,)
<3> wlfshmn: AH okay.
<1> hm.. a seagul tried to enter my apartment
<1> I'm pretty sur eI don't want sea gulls in hhere
<3> I keep telling people that the building will probably collapse inon itself one day. That bulging out structuer just cannot last.
<3> And I cannot type properly.
<8> Just add it to the long list of stuff you can't do properly. :)
<1> If I had a window office there, I would make sure I got an office that was fully behind the tinted windows atleast ;)
<3> Falchion: Please, die horribly. ;)
<8> heh I probably will
<3> wlfshmn: I don't think there is any choice BUT to have a window office there, somehow ;)
<1> Tron: it's gotta have some innards as well, I suppose ;)
<3> wlfshmn: Possibly, but the innards look to me like structure straining to hold the bugger up. ;)
<1> Tron: And for insult, you get drafted to the Navy.
<3> wlfshmn: Who gets drafted to the Navy? Wha?
<1> Tron: ah, Falchion was the intended recipient of that
<7> Eheh, Jay & Silent Bob on the tube today
<8> wlfshmn: NAVY!?!?!? **** YOU, MAN! **** YOU!
<7> Falchion: Oh come on...cool boats. Big guns. And you get to see something of the world!
<7> Well, primarily the blue parts, but hey
<1> Falchion: Figured I needed to add some sting
<8> Get to be seaman....
<1> Falchion: they have this saying here (well, the army does anyway) that the airforce is a fashion style, and the navy is a ***ual orientation.
<1> although admittedly, the navy here has been getting some cool gear lately
<5> Canada has an aircraft carrier. . . http://nickscipio.com/funstuff/archive9/2005-07-06_canadiancarrier.html
<8> wlfshmn: hehehe
<1> Ka-bar: Well, canada doesn't -need- a carrier anyway ;)
<4> yeh
<8> wlfshmn: My favorite weapon was actually a Naval gun. My MK-19 :)
<1> Ka-bar: even if it had one, it doesn't have the capability to protect it enough to make decent carrier group
<8> wlfshmn: They can swing over to Walmart and get some rafts
<1> Ka-bar: those that argue way too much about stuff these days say that carriers are just sitting ducks in any conflict of scale
<1> Ka-bar: Heck, the little diesel sub sweden leased to you lot, along with a conscript crew, has been evading your 3rd fleet for a full year, and managed to sink USS Ronald Reagan while under the protection of your 3rd Fleet, which is tasked for anti-submarine warfare
<1> Ka-bar: No wonder your own submariners like to divide the navy up into "submarines" and "targets" ;)
<1> anyone know of a residential router that can actually deal with 100Mbit throughput through NAT and some mild port-forwarding?
<1> the WRT54G is coming up woefully short, not pushing more than maybe 25
<5> eewwww
<7> wlfshmn: I dunno, maybe a WRAP, or a soekris
<5> wlfshmn: overclock it ;)
<3> wlfshmn: A linux PC and a DSL adaptor perhaps?
<3> wlfshmn: I doubt any small router will be capable of that much throughput anyhow.
<1> Tron: Well, yes, using a PC or a homebuilt solution is obvious. I'm talking about if there are -capable- pre-built commercial boxen
<9> the wrt wont be able to handle wire speed by design, seeing the cpu only has a single 100mbit connection to the 5 port switch and wan/lan are just vlans on that link
<3> wlfshmn: Russ reckons a Seokirs box running freeBSD should "just about" manage it.
<3> Soekris even
<9> a net4801 wont handle full 100mbit either
<1> Tron: costs as much as a full PC though ;)
<3> wlfshmn: Well then, there ya go ;)
<7> A wrt blows for routing
<7> It switches at wire speed though
<7> Routing pushes it back to about 1/3 wire speed
<3> wlfshmn: if you want smallish form factor, how about those little miniITX or whatever they're called, thingies?
<1> PolarWolf: it needent have wireless capabilities, the wrt54g can stay on the net elsewhere pushing wifi
<7> Add encryption and it becomes pityful
<1> PolarWolf: nor does it need to act as VPN endpoint ;)
<7> wlfshmn: Bleh, where's the fun in it then? :)
<10> ping 5.41.105.171
<3> beertime();
<5> cd /pub; more beer
<5> wlfshmn: buy an Equalizer... :)
<1> Ka-bar: hum? sounds more like a load balancer than anything
<5> wlfshmn: it also does nat and routing and firewalling to a certain extent. and once you realize that it runs freebsd, you can make it do just about anything else you want. ;)
<1> Ka-bar: Just retrofitting a PC with some PCIe hardware seem to be the solution decided pon
<1> Ka-bar: (not my machine, I don't get 100/10Mbit bandwdith unfortunatley)
<11> hello?
<12> Lion-O, good one :)
<13> oy
<12> oy
<0> oy
<11> hey guys, can u give me a hand?
<11> :o
<0> WOuld you like a standing ovation now?
<5> SirElite: http://hetracil.com
<13> it would indeed help to know what this is all about before we can actually say if we're able to help.
<13> but then again, the 'l33t' people usually have issues with this thinking thing.
<14> hi
<5> not yet
<14> i want to install tcl on my fedora server if i do yum install tcl i am ok?
<13> shoes: rtfm comes to mind.
<5> shoes: tcl ships as part of Fedora. It got installed when I set up my system.
<1> plus, do you -really- want to install TCL? Friends don't let friuends to TCL
<15> heh
<16> i need to calm down.
<4> what is tcl
<17> dj_shadow: imagine a scripting language based on brain****, with the worst aspects of pascal and cobol added to it...
<4> hrmm
<4> pascal is good
<17> now imagine MS rewrote it to be VISUAL
<13> lol
<4> what are some bad aspects of pascal
<4> visual sounds pretty good
<17> dj_shadow: anything wurth was responsible for
<4> you guys like ruby at all?
<4> i don't know who wurth is
