<0> anyone here?
<1> no
<2> OM
<1> Nanuq
<3> They aren't here
<4> anyone isn't in #linux
<0> im trying to run a certain script thru cron..just to automate ftp from server-server..is it possible to use wget for all (*) of the files on the server?
<0> #!/bin/bash
<0> wget ftp://user:p***@myserver/mypath/myfile.ext
<1> what about it?
<4> nickk: read the wget man page. Search it for recursive / recursion.
<0> ok thanks
<0> lol
<5> is it common for lugs to filled with people that are mostly "blue collar"?
<4> not in my experience.
<4> lugs tend to be filled with a wide mix of students, misfits, and white collar folks.



<4> earnie the heavy diesel mechanic is usually not at a lug meeting.
<6> siglite, im a mechanic, what are you trying to say? :P
<5> well i guess by "blue collar" i mean do they attract a lot of people with little or no formal education?
<4> adikt: I'm saying that in my experience, you're a minority.
<4> MooseFactory: I couldn't comment on that. I've never seen them asking for copies of degrees at the door of a lug meeting.
<6> siglite, not really
<6> i rarely go to LUG meetings :P
<4> adikt: ah, then you fit in nicely with my experience. But then, I don't go to lug meetings very often either.
<7> adikt: bad bad adikt
<7> considering WLUG is probably the best LUG in .nz
<6> Cynic, i dont see you there either!
<7> i don't live there ;)
<6> heh
<4> wlug?
<6> whats your point?
<4> waikato?
<7> waikato lug
<6> show some effort :P
<4> ah, yeah, home of the BOFH.
<6> indeed
<7> adikt: yeah, a 4 hour drive for a LUG meeting sounds *great*
<7> siglite: indeed, my former boss ;)
<4> Cynic: really?
<7> who hates IRC *and* LUGs, by the by
<6> Cynic, well, i cant even muster up a <2min drive
<4> Cynic: heh, d'joo ever meet his sister?
<7> siglite: indeed.. i was the PFY for 3.5 years :P
<7> i've met his sister and one of his brothers
<4> she stopped by my house in the late 90's.
<4> cool chicky.
<4> oddly enough, I can't remember her name, just ner net handle.
<7> they're from one of those old-school large catholic families ;)
<4> s/ner/her/
<6> Cynic, i tend not to get on too well with a few of the regulars for various reasons
<7> adikt: i have noticed a certain amount of elitism, to be sure..
<4> hah
<8> sig.
<4> yessir?
<8> Do you ever send email to your congressmen?
<4> occasionally, yes
<3> TenBaseT: Every other day
<4> it's pretty futile for my congresswoman though.
<8> tell em to support this http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d109:HR04547: and this http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d109:S3275:
<4> she just tows the party line no matter what.
<4> she's totally incapable of making a decision based on merits.
<4> ok, 4547 has my support.
<4> lol
<4> I'm so ****ing stupid.
<4> I just went to find her email address.
<4> DERRRRRR
<4> I host her ****ing website and email.
<6> 'make it happen oir your website disappears'
<3> What exactly would be the benefit of that bill?
<4> national carry permit reciprocity
<4> carry permits would be treated more like drivers license.
<4> valid in one state, honored in another.
<7> hmm, they're having a leaving party for the director
<3> I can see the benefits of a general gun permit, but not for concealed weapons
<9> siglite: that one's got my support too.
<9> reality: what's the difference?



<3> bhab: Between a gun permit and a concealed weapons license?
<9> reality: I know the difference between the two pieces of paper. I'm just saying, that if someone is going to carry a weapon, they may as well be allowed to conceal said weapon as well.
<9> In fact, I'd wager concealed firearms are *safer* than that of openly-carried firearms.
<3> I would tend to disagree
<3> At least you know a person has a gun on them if you can see it
<10> sure they are. then punks don't know if anyone is packing.
<9> Consider this situation: I walk into a bank (or similar establishment) openly carrying my pistol. Some shady character, say, siglite, (:D) notices this, and while I have my guard down, takes the gun from my holster and uses it to hold up the bank.
<9> Had my pistol been concealed, this crime would have been far more difficult.
<8> someone willing to hold up a bank will get their own weapon
<3> Why the **** are you carrying a gun on you to begin with?
<10> then said would be bank roper would try same thing and 14 people draw down on him...
<3> OldMonk: We probably share the same views
<4> TenBaseT: done.
<1> reality: who me? i didn't say anything!
<9> reality: Perhaps I carry large sums of money, which I regularly deposit into the bank.
<4> good luck trying a gun grab on me anyway. Concealed or not concealed.
<3> OldMonk: Thus the word "probably"
<1> hehheh
<9> yeah, i'd likely break someone's wrist who tried. When I'm carrying there isn't a situation where I have my guard down.
<3> bhab: Then the situation becomes moot
<9> still, i'd rather conceal it and not give anyone any ideas.
<9> less headache for both of us.
<3> Or you could not carry it and not even worry about the situation to begin with
<4> yeah, then you could rely on law enforcement to get there in time and save you.
<3> Save you from....?
<4> an attacker
<9> at which point i have a knife in my belly and my $10k in cash is gone, along with the ****er who put the knife there.
<3> What ****in' city do you folks live in?
<4> charleston WV.
<3> Harlem?
<4> I've been attacked multiple times in my life with no provokation.
<9> San Marcos, CA.
<9> As have I. When I lived in VA, I was mugged twice.
<4> once with a knife.
<9> One of those times was on a $4k cash deposit to the bank.
<9> I still have a scar across my arm from where I deflected a stab.
<4> fortunately, I was able to disarm and kick the **** out of the guy who had the knife.
<4> but I can't bank on that every time.
<11> and why siglite is this guy still wasting my oxygen?
<4> bsims: because at some point in my stomping of his ***, he was able to escape. Chasing him down and finishing the job would've been a bad legal decision.
<4> bsims: I was unarmed.
<11> Ah ok
<12> siglite: legally unarmed? :)
<12> this America place is wierd, I must say.
<4> I had no weapons at all.
<9> america pisses me off sometimes
<4> attacker had the knife, well, until it hit the ground.
<9> but i often think other places would piss me off even more.
<12> although I have to say, the texans are very nice people. very friendly as a rule.
<4> I'll remember the sound of that knife hitting the ground for the rest of my life.
<9> i'll have the scar for the rest of my life, probably
<12> siglite: I meant, legally unarmed as in if you'd kicked the **** out of him he'd probably have sued you for it and you'd have not had a leg to stand on :)
<12> bhab: it's ok, in 2047 there will be a new technology that heals scars.
<4> szymon: most likely, yes. I did kick the **** out of him, but it woulda changed from self defense to something else like, ***ault and battery if I'd chased him after he escaped.
<4> cops got the guy too.
<9> yeah, and when i'm 77, i won't be caring too much about my scars :)
<12> that's the kind of thing I'm thinking about :)
<4> like, six hours later.
<12> nice when the police catch folk
<4> they weren't of much use in that alley with the guy though.
<9> sad thing is, they seldom do :(
<4> I was very very lucky really, that the guy didn't know how to fight at all.
<4> and I was lucky that the knife came out of his grasp
<11> siglite: Truly Odin was watching out for ya that day
<4> I was lucky that his initial stab nicked the corner of my eye instead of going into my eye
<9> ouch.
<4> there was a whole lot of luck in that one.
<9> dude, yeah
<9> my trousers would have been quite brown
<4> woulda been a lot safer to have just shot the sonofabitch.
