<0> I think at least
<1> syn-ack: they had their merits
<0> Nanuq: yeah, thats true. The modems did ****
<1> syn-ack: What was it of BBSes? The games?
<0> Mostly
<1> syn-ack: Back when I had mine, that's all that anyone seemed interested in.
<5> waznz: /me looked up the US army manual on hanging. 1260/$weight in pounds gives the feet
<0> the chess and RPGs and shti like that
<0> Nanuq: The message boards were fun too
<0> I got banned from quite a bit of them
<1> syn-ack: nobody every participated in those, on mine
<0> lusers.
<0> He had some ****ed up convos in there, kinda like in here really
<0> hrm
<0> I wonder if I could talk Lion-O into setting up a bbs for old times sake. heh
<5> damn Yard*** requires only 5.4 feet of rope ***uming she only weights 250. her *** is literaly over a yard across. i measured one day
<1> syn-ack: My fav software was probably C*Net, for the Amiga
<1> syn-ack: it was basic, but it was solid
<0> Heh, I never ran a BBS so I dont know too much about them. I only lerked on them
<0> bsims: You sure you dont live in Texas?
<1> syn-ack: Mine was originally Remote Access, later LoraBBS and Grapevine. Eventually I gave in and used Maximus CBCS
<5> syn-ack: Damn Sure I live the the People's Soviet of IllAnnoy
<1> syn-ack: it was the most common in these parts, considering it was written by a bloke.. somewheres in Ontario
<0> aha
<0> bsims: what the hell, where at in IL?
<5> about 50 miles west of peoria.
<1> Hrm.. none of y'all have any Wynton Marsalis tunes/albums, but any chance?
<5> West-Central Illinois
<0> bsims: well son of a bitch I wish I would have known that, I used to be out in them parts all the time
<5> ****
<0> coulda hooked up and got drunk
<5> range first and then drunk, I'd have provided the ammo
<0> Nanuq: The one they ran here was FalkenBSS
<5> syn-ack: you get out this way again try brad.m.sims@gmail.com
<0> bsims: Would have had to provided the weapon too since its agains federal law for me to carry while on duty.
<6> I am looking for someone who knows Linux and can help me with an installation
<5> heh Been known to ignore Richard the Turd Daily's laws
<0> bsims: will do. I may very well see if I can get dispatch to send me out that way for ****s and grins. Im working in Regional transport nowadays
<5> legaly one .22lr shell and no FOID card and its five years... ask me if I give a ****
<4> skipsangel20: http://www.ubuntu.com/ and follow directions written there. We won't hold your hand for you.
<5> I have one but dont care if the guest does
<5> syn-ack: what company if you don't mind
<5> zetawoof: /me notes Debian, The last distro you will ever need
<0> bsims: I used to work for CRST Van Expididted now I work for a company called DSW. we haul Swift cargo for the most part
<5> syn-ack: Cool we don't ship swift much but I know the company
<0> skipsangel20: Dont message me
<5> syn-ack: er are they trying to get kicked
<4> bsims: yeah, I'm just mention Ubuntu 'cuz it's a bit easier to download, and very much drool-proof
<6> I have been to ubunto am still lost
<0> skipsangel20: What the hell is it you're trying to do?
<5> zetawoof: true my mom now runs Ubuntu she used to run SuSE
<0> SuSE? ick.
<5> syn-ack: hey now that was my first distro
<1> SuSE is that distro that sounds valid, installer looks okay, and you get this sense you're gonna get somewhere. Except I never do. Something always happens in the install, something always breaks afterwards.
<0> I dont have much room to talk, I used to be a red hatter many a moon ago
<6> I have to install a piece of software in a VPS using Virtuozzo and I cant get the dam thing to install
<1> I always wind up going back to Debian, so I just cut straight the the chase these days.
<6> I was hoping that I could find someone here who could get involved'
<0> skipsangel20: well, we cant help you since we dont **** with **** like that
<0> skipsangel20: this is not a help channel
<4> skipsangel20: Our going rate is $200/hr. Payable in advance.
<3> at least the new intern we hired knows linux too.
<7> i find redhat based distros are better for servers...granted i've done everything i know in redhat with debian distros, but i always go back to redhat
<3> skipsangel20: 2hr minimum
<0> Gevaudan82: Come again on the RH?
<5> Nanuq: actually DeadRat broke on the install at the time (Crap vid card) Suse supported it out of the box and advertised on User Friendly so I bought Suse 7.something and then SuSE 8.1 for mom
<7> i actually taught the son of the cio's son of rh at a summer camp a few years back
<0> Red Hat and RPM are evil
<1> bsims: YMMV :)
<7> rpm is nice...just would be nicer if rpm's resolved their own dependencies like yum
<0> I use Ubuntu on the Desktop when I run linux on the desktop
<1> bsims: I have four choices these days, in order of preference: NetBSD, Solaris, Debian GNU/Linux, Windows
<0> Gevaudan82: You have never built your own packages have you?
<5> and it never broke thats what amazed me
<0> Never had to create a SPEC file from hand or anything like that, I bet
<7> syn-ack: i have using rpmbuild to deploy on planetlab which supports fedora version 2
<4> Gevaudan82: Yum would be nice if it didn't take a minute or more to tell me it can't find a package.
<1> zetawoof: I thought it was supposed to be faster
<1> zetawoof: because of its sqlite backend
<4> Nanuq: I can check if you want.
<1> bsims: Give it a whack.
<1> Why would it take a minute?
<0> Gevaudan82: are you writing you SPEC files by hand?
<4> Nanuq: "Loading XML package database....."
<5> Nanuq: on the other hand I know linux mostly
<5> but new and odder way of doing things
<1> SELECT * FROM packages WHERE status = "installed"; -- something like that
<1> zetawoof: I mean geez
<0> dpkg -b /path/to/source/file/makefile
<1> zetawoof: ****ing xml
<7> syn-ack: no...and honestly most of the files i deploy to 1 > x < 100 nodes are in tar format and i use pssh to extract from there
<0> debian is as easy as that
<0> well, theres more to it than that, but thats the general idea
<1> I see some uses for XML, but for internal junk, it just bloats things up and slows things down.
<1> Well it can.
<7> it has its place
<0> Gevaudan82: I hate RPM; SPEC files and redhat all the same. its a lame, raped and ****ty package manager
<5> syn-ack: Come Home to Apt, the only package manager with SuperCow Powers
<0> What the hell is that Elektra Ive been reading about? Why do they think that its a Good Idea to have a Registry in *nix?
<7> syn-ack: rpm works well from my experience...again i'm not anal about my file system organization
<5> syn-ack: cause people need to be ****ed with barbed wire
<0> Gevaudan82: you should be.
<7> with rpm it is a lot easier to uninstall packages...when compiling you have to keep or redownload the original make files right?
<0> bsims: god, when I read that in Linux Format I wanted to email the author of that **** a bomb threat
<0> Gevaudan82: Who said anything about that? do you know anything about the Debian Way of package management?
<5> syn-ack: s/want.../mailed a bullet and an invoice with his kid's name
<0> not to be rude really, but I know it sounds like that
<0> bsims: ^5
<1> heh heh
<1> "Which of the following would you most prefer? A: a puppy, B: a pretty flower from your sweety, or C: a large properly formatted data file?"
<7> bsims: i experimented with debian briefly...was able to setup the same services as in redhat but i tended to like yum and rpm better than apt-get
<1> http://www.gotfuturama.com/Multimedia/EpisodeSounds/1ACV05/11.mp3
<0> Gevaudan82: dpkg -b creates a package with which you can install to a system as well as remove it
<0> yum is slow.
<0> apt is not
<5> Gevaudan82: Pervert
<0> apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
<7> but there are a lot mroe yum repos from my experience
<0> hardly
<5> Gevaudan82: yeah and they do 1/30th of the testing.
<0> Gevaudan82: maybe for apt-rpm, but thats not really apt anyway
<8> crap, it's hot already, where's the damn bad weather they promised :P
<5> If I upgrade on Stable I *know* it won't break anything no matter what I have installed
<0> Get a debian box setup and look for some deb repos. you will find a ton of them
<1> syn-ack: What I really need to work on, as if my TODO list isn't long enough, is something superior to pkg_install in NetBSD
