<0> I WANT TO BUY A 56K MODEM - WHICH IS THE BEST CHOICE IN ORDER TO BE RECOGNIXZED BY LIUNX?
<1> the one where you dont use all caps.
<2> /\/\/\ p /\/\/\
<3> :P
<4> limbiskit: one that is ATH compliant :P
<5> 56k modem:) that was old old old days:P
<4> cerbafiver: nono. not a puny 56k modem. a 56K MODMEM
<6> good old 28.8
<6> or 14.4 for that matter
<4> I remember that serial-port speeds were limiting for communication back in the days :P
<1> first modem i used regularly was 2400
<7> I used a 1200
<1> the first modem in the house was the 300 baud for the Commodore 64
<8> first modem I used regularly was 14k4, first I owned was a 28k8
<8> which I still have in a box, somewhere
<6> I have a 33.6 in a drawer
<4> Im sure all of those are better than this GPRS crap I have now :P
<8> what I find scary is that thanks to some work I did, I can tell just by listening not only what modulation a given dialup session is using, but what speed it will probably connect at, too
<8> by ear
<5> home i have 50 \ 25 mbit
<4> was always a drag to turn it off, so my parents wouldnt hear me dialing
<4> cerbafiver: but it doesnt do slashes correctly :P
<5> what do you mean with slashes ?
<4> /me is now fwapping DreadStar, lister- and craig_charlie with aicepick
<5> you forgot that you diddent remowe a space :P
<4> fixing typoes with this latency I got here is something I cant be bothered with
<6> hehe
<4> anyway. late. Im off. have fun
<6> g'night
<4> anyway. ^A ^D
<9> lp
<6> has been a long time since I've seen one of those
<9> how do I drop wget in the background ? (in ssh)
<6> man screen
<9> I have already set wget to download a list of files
<9> how do I open another wget to download other files?
<10> Good fake, or real? http://lists.grok.org.uk/pipermail/full-disclosure/2006-March/042755.html ..
<11> yo Daakman
<11> g'night whyzzyrd
<11> KellyD: ctl-Z, then 'bg', if you want to move an active process into the background...
<10> Anyone that has ruby installed ought to have a check out of that there link. No idea if it's real, too early to tell.
<11> KellyD: if you want to start a process *as* a background process, then append a & to the end of the command line
<10> Cynic: it's an & .. (it being called ampersand).
<10> grammar pedant goes to bed
<11> whyzzyrd: yes, it is, isn't it.
<12> poof
<11> if i was referring to it as an ampersand i would say 'an', but as i'm referring to it as the ASCII character &, i did not.
<11> so THERE'S pedantry for ya ;P
<11> yo Eriq
<10> ./msg x kick cynic pedantry eh?
<12> Qim
<10> ;-P
<10> right. bedness
<12> Cynic: any idea which of the east asian languages has a prominent "err" or "urr" sound?
<7> ..... mmm.
<7> night whyzzyrd
<9> if a file has been partially downloaded with wget, how will I know it?
<12> KellyD: there'll be a file there?
<12> KellyD: that's a wee bit short of the size it should be?
<9> yes
<9> the file size is smaller than it should be
<9> do I have to check all the time, the file sizes to see if my files are properly downloaded?
<12> I also think it sets the file 600, and then chmods to 644 (***uming a umask of 022) afterwards
<12> I'm sure there's a feature to name it ".part" or something, like Firefox does
<12> or an option, or a patch to do such
<9> Nanuq can you tell me how to do this
<9> it would be nice to add an .part extension
<8> Nanuq, probably 666 modulo the umask
<8> well, not -literally- modulo
<8> the calculation is actually P & ~M, where P is the permissions and M is the umask
<13> like, hi and stuff
<14> oof
<14> that was a damn long day
<15> D-side: I finished the transcoding part of the TV server
<15> Audio/video now work
<16> hey Liandrin ..
<16> that must've been some lag. :P
<16> anyone recommend a good, free X-server system for windows (which would support opengl rendering?)
<16> cygwin was a huge pain to install, and X-win32 is commerical
<13> most, if not all, good X servers are not free
<14> reality: nice.
<13> and I don't recall having a hard time installing Cygwin
<16> Daakman, i think cygwin is a huge overkill if all i want to be doing is working on a remote system through putty and have apps render here
<17> argh.
<17> there's no ghost on X?
<14> what?
<14> a midget justwalked in here
<14> i dont know how i'm goingto deal with this
<17> D-side, uh, something to kill a ghost nick?
<14> ah. nope.
<17> ah goody
<15> You know what would make my day?
<15> "What reality?"
<15> If Carrie Rounds, daughter of Governor Mike Rounds, gets knocked up by Chris Rounds, son of Governor Mike Rounds...
<15> Yes. I do believe that would complete my day
<18> two different governors mike rounds?
<18> or is he governor of alabama? :)
<14> heh.
<15> No, same one
<13> hopefully
<15> exel: I'm in Alabama
<13> eak
<19> lol
<14> gf is headed back to SD this coming saturday
<18> reality: sorry I'll pick another red state to mock :)
<14> i'll ask her to kick him in the beans for me
<15> D-side: Still thecat?
<14> ofcourse.
<15> Ah
<14> as if i'd let her leave
<15> hehe
<15> ndernet.org] [Read error:
<15> EOF from client]
<14> who'd do my laundry and cook?
<15> Gah!
<15> My parents were actually in ND just yesterday
<14> why would they do that
<15> I'm originally from Minneapolis, MN, born there. Then moved to Fargo, ND until I was 13. Then to Florida.
<1> now thats a climate change
<14> ah.
<12> Liandrin: istr seeing a file being downloaded set as 600
<12> Liandrin: my umask is usually 022
<14> I think I knew that.
<15> Grandfather is still in Fargo, ND/Moorhead, MN (lives by the Red River), and it's 1 year since my grandmother died.
<14> brb
<11> re
<18> hi cynic
<11> 'llo exel
<18> so do you just buy half gl***es to cut the discussion short?
<18> that's what I wondered the other day
<11> heh
<11> is that related to the old "gl*** is half full/empty" question?
<18> yeah
<11> engineers do usually say that the gl*** is twice as big as it needs to be
<20> or that there's not enough beer
<11> no, that's sysadmins ;)
