[00:14] <inco> which one do you use?
[00:14] <drewbuntu> 4.2.2.2

[00:14] <inco> same
[00:14] <inco> i have a bad cache with them 2
[00:15] <inco> do you know another public one

[00:53] <yoda-work> can I say "start earning for your work" ? or do I have to specify what is
[00:54] <Aiges> yoda: In what context?
[00:54] <yoda-work> a proposal
[00:54] <yoda-work> join now, start earning for your work
[00:56] <yoda-work> Aiges; ?
[00:56] <Aiges> I'm not sure, I haven't had much experience with that...
[00:56] <ida> yoda-work, it sounds funny
[00:58] <yoda-work> ye thats why I came on in the first place...
[00:58] <yoda-work> had to consult ;p
[00:58] <ida> *ponders*
[00:59] <ida> Join now, start earning for your work today maybe?
[00:59] <yoda-work> hehe.. thats totally the same
[00:59] <ida> or join now, start earning money for your work now
[00:59] <ida> you lack.. I dunno
[00:59] <ida> something
[00:59] <yoda-work> if you use the term 'money' between 'earning' and 'for'
[00:59] <ida> << non native btw
[00:59] <yoda-work> it's fine
[00:59] <ida> yeah
[00:59] <yoda-work> thats why I think it's cool to use it even when not specified
[00:59] <ida> but I'd say "for your work" is superfluous
[00:59] <yoda-work> but .. it doesnt sound right
[00:59] <ida> you dont earn money for anything but work
[01:00] <yoda-work> thing is, I don't wanna specify what is earned.
[01:00] <phlux> why not?
[01:00] <phlux> You want people to work for you thinking they're earning money, but instead e
[01:00] <yoda-work> cause the offer is much more than money.. and using the word 'money' unde
[01:01] <Aiges> What exactly is the offer? It might help us help you better if we know.
[01:01] <Aiges> "Be rewarded for your work", perhaps.
[01:01] <phlux> bam
[01:01] <phlux> Good idea.
[01:01] <yoda-work> totallyu
[01:02] <phlux> Aiges is a genius.

[01:10] <affad> ok thx
[01:10] <phlux> hmm... why do some Urinalysis tests look for specific gravity, pH and whatnot
[01:11] <Ida> phlux, among other things, kidney stones
[01:11] <phlux> Really?
[01:11] <phlux> Dang
[01:11] <phlux> I'm afraid of coming back "diluted" from MEPS
[01:12] <phlux> I've been running/working out a lot lately, drinking nothing but water trying
[01:12] <phlux> I don't want my specific gravity or pH to be off when they do the urinalysis.
[01:12] <Ida> what's the test for?
[01:12] <Ida> I mean
[01:12] <Ida> Why are you having it done?
[01:13] <phlux> Physical. I have to take one urinalysis to test for drugs, and another to tes
[01:13] <Ida> phlux, I wouldn't worry
[01:13] <Aiges> specific gravity?
[01:13] <phlux> Going into the Coast Guard
[01:13] <Ida> Aiges, concentration, essentially
[01:14] <Aiges> Ah okay. Sounds like an odd name to give it.
[01:14] <sllide> where can i find files for virtual mac?
[01:14] <Aiges> *wikis it*
[01:15] <Ida> phlux, are you sure you're getting all that? We usually just stix the urine
[01:16] <Ida> I mean specific gravity
[01:16] <phlux> That's what I read on usmilitary.about.com
[01:16] <Ida> I wouldn't worry
[01:16] <phlux> Could be misinformed though. Are you in the US Military?
[01:16] <Ida> unless you have kidney problems, you are unlikely to get an iffy result
[01:17] <Ida> and even then they'll probably just ignore it
[01:17] <phlux> Ah, okay
[01:17] <Ida> I'm a med student, and I work as a nurse part time
[01:17] <phlux> Sounds good to me
[01:17] <phlux> Oh, that's cool
[01:17] <blc> and sexy
[01:17] <blc> :P
[01:17] <phlux> lol
[01:18] <Ida> hehe
[01:18] <Ida> I don't give medical advice (that's not allowed!) though.. but info on diagnost
[01:18] <blc> Ida: anything that you can't be sued for basically..
[01:19] <Ida> exactly
[01:19] <Ida> you get to be very concious of it, trust me :)
[01:19] <blc> being in here for 8 years, yes i know
[01:20] <Ida> :-)
[01:24] <phlux> When I get to basic training they have to cut all four of my wisdom teeth out
[01:24] <phlux> That's going to hurt so bad
[01:25] <Ida> that's what diamorphine is for.
[01:25] <phlux> yeah I hear I'll be on some serious meds for a couple of days
[01:26] <phlux> and I'll be eating nothing but ice cream
[01:26] <phlux> only for two days though... then I have to join in with the rest of the group
[01:26] <phlux> but at least I get two days off :P
[01:26] <Aiges> It gets better fairly quickly at least
[01:27] <Ida> I still have all my wisdom teeth
[01:27] <Aiges> Are they all out?
[01:27] <Ida> nope
[01:28] <Aiges> I still have all of mine as well, am going off what other people have said ab
[01:28] <phlux> Mine don't hurt and afaik they fit
[01:29] <Ida> phlux, it's stupid they remove them then.
[01:29] <phlux> Ida: They don't want them to cause jaw problems down the line and then have t
[01:29] <Ida> phlux, whatever happened to personal responsibility?
[01:29] <phlux> They'd rather fork up the $2,000.00 to remove the teeth than to pay $5,000 to
[01:30] <Ida> or lack of defensive medicine/dentistry

[01:30] <phlux> I don't know that they remove everyone's
[01:30] <Ida> You
[01:31] <phlux> But a friend of mine who thought his "fit" had all four of 'em taken out
[01:31] <Ida> 're in the US?
[01:31] <phlux> Yes

[01:32] <jackal^> w0t, you can stretch only the whole taskbar not only portion of it
[01:32] <w0t> i want it to cover more lines
[01:32] <w0t> so i don't have to press the down arrow button to go to the next line
[01:33] <w0t> because i've more processes up than it can show in one line

[01:34] <w0t> it's hard to do that though
[01:34] <w0t> no way to config that with text?

[01:57] <Metshrine> CTRL+SHIFT+ESC
[01:57] <Dial_SQ> Does not work
[01:58] <Metshrine> maybe try file - open
[01:58] <Metshrine> then browse
[01:58] <Metshrine> locate it in c:\windows\system32 and run it that way?
[01:58] <Dial_SQ> Do you know what it's called?
[01:59] <jackal^> Dial_SQ, try type taskmgr
[01:59] <Dial_SQ> Thanx
[02:00] <jackal^> btw, ctrl+alt+del doesnt work?
[02:03] <Dial_SQ> Nope, think there is something called backdoor guard that is blocking it

[02:18] <oddalot> anyone?
[02:18] <oddalot> bueller?
[02:18] <Ida> I'm guessing it depends
[02:18] <oddalot> depends on what?
[02:18] <Ida> well
[02:18] <Ida> theres a placebo effect of having the glasses on
[02:19] <Ida> which means that your hallucinations would be more clear because you expected t
[02:19] <Ida> most of my patients who hallucinate wouldn't notice if they had glasses on thou
[02:20] <oddalot> well, i was speaking more of a "normal" person that was hallucinating
[02:21] <Ida> why would a normal person hallucinate?
[02:22] <oddalot> meditation, drugs, sleep deprivation, etc...
[02:22] <Ida> I wouldn't imagine it would make a difference.
[02:23] <oddalot> i'm thinking they would be more vivid
[02:23] <oddalot> i'm going to try it next time i hallucinate
[02:23] <Ida> I do know there are cases of lack of glasses provoking hallucinations though
[02:23] <Ida> in people that need them
[02:24] <oddalot> well...i just wondered how far in your mind the hallucinations are taking p
[02:25] <oddalot> obviously if the hallucinations were very out of focus, then your mind woul
[02:25] <oddalot> you would think..

[09:56] <KosheeN> do the Workgroup names match on each machine ?
[09:57] <mrtv2> yes - that was one of the 1st things I looked for.
[09:57] <KosheeN> try : start, Run then type \\computername\sharename
[09:58] <deww> btw, it could be the windows firewall
[09:58] <KosheeN> also check any firewalls or antivirus protection
[09:59] <mrtv2> Ok, I'll turn off all antivirus and firewall and see if that works
[09:59] <KosheeN> ok, i wont be here but im sure some one can help.... (lunch break)
[09:59] <deww> turn it off for now, but make sure to enable properly once running
[09:59] <mrtv2> of course
[09:59] <KosheeN> deww is "the man"
[10:00] <mrtv2> if the computer name is audio-biggie what is the sharename?
[10:01] <Mafaioz> the same?`
[10:01] <Mafaioz> or sh-audio-biggie
[10:02] <mrtv2> so the command would look like \\audio-biggie\audio-biggie
[10:02] <Mafaioz> just \\audio-biggie\
[10:03] <Mafaioz> if there is anything shared on it, it will be shoen

[10:21] <Experimen> is ssl available here?

[10:21] <pixil> There are a couple of servers that have it, but there's no point in using the
[10:22] <Experimen> k
[10:22] <pixil> It defeats the purpose unless all of the servers support ssl.
[10:22] <Experimen> well could you tell me wich on that does support it?
[10:22] <pixil> No. /links prolly will though
[10:23] <pixil> As far as I know it's not officially supported.
[10:28] <Experimen> well efnet is on ssl testing

[10:36] <rhelic> PCI-E is faster and it allows for multiple PCI-E cards (officially), AGP was

[10:58] <KaMiKaZa> So i cant install Printer Service?
[10:58] <pixil> Probably not.
[10:58] <pixil> It's the reason those stripping utilities should not be used.
[10:58] <KaMiKaZa> Probably is not good enough

[10:58] <pixil> Very much so

[11:00] <Life^> ahahahahahaha
[11:00] <pixil> because normally reliability issues are beyond the scope of the technology
[11:00] <Life^> why would you take the time service out? :P
[11:00] <pixil> Life^: He didn't have a logical answer.
[11:00] <john-john> well which is better
[11:00] <Nilisco> so..it..would uh...boot faster
[11:00] <pixil> The fact is, there is 0 reason to strip anything out of xp. It's far simpler

[11:39] <rhelic> maxfx: that's your real problem, you obviously don't listen to advice
[11:39] <pixil> That link I gave you was a MS article explaining a workaround for the error y
[11:40] <rhelic> the fact you even need a link again shows you're ignoring all the help you'r
[11:40] <maxfx> no
[11:40] <pixil> Not only that, he complains that the help he's given is not "real".
[11:40] <maxfx> i wont format
[11:40] <pixil> The URL I gave you had nothing to do with formatting.

[11:41] <davisamm> i need help becuase i dont know how to make a request
[11:41] <ial> davisamm: be more specific
[11:42] <rhelic> did you guys hear Sun has bought MySQL
[11:42] <phlux> old news
[11:42] <rhelic> wow, the internet has changed when 4hrs ago is old
[11:42] <davisamm> i need to make a request in a newsgroup so i can download the needed softw
[11:42] <phlux> I was joking :P
[11:42] <phlux> No I didn't know that.
[11:43] <pixil> rhelic: yeah
[11:43] <pixil> Just the commercial group
[11:43] <phlux> That kind of... sucks.
[11:43] <pixil> Who cares. I've never purchased mysql.
[11:43] <ial> davisamm: sounds illegalish. you are trying to just make a normal text post to
[11:43] <phlux> mysql has to be purchased?
[11:43] <rhelic> there's a commercial version
[11:43] <pixil> The commercial version does
[11:44] <phlux> I usually just cd /usr/ports/databases/mysql && make install clean
[11:44] <davisamm> kinda
[11:44] <rhelic> but no, there's a community version too, and really it,s the same thing
[11:44] <phlux> oh
[11:44] <pixil> exactly
[11:44] <rhelic> the commercial version has official support, and 0day bug fixes/updates
[11:44] <ial> phlux: portinstall ftw
[11:46] <john-john> what does a random double beep in windows xp mean
[11:46] <john-john> from the bios i guess
[11:46] <rhelic> rtfm :)
[11:46] <Sculptor> the chicken is done :)
[11:46] <rhelic> if it's from your bios, only the manual will tell
[11:47] <rhelic> but generally mobos don't beep during operation, windows can actually fire o
[11:47] <john-john> it sounds like the bios
[11:50] <john-john> what is rtfm
[11:50] <davisamm> read the f*ukin manual
[11:50] <john-john> lol

[12:00] <Life^> rc--: The old style or the new one?
[12:01] <john-john> that protection plan is the oldest scam in the book
[12:01] <MrPockets> hey dude
[12:01] <rc--> Life^ ummm i think new?
[12:02] <GMouth> how is it a scam?
[12:03] <john-john> not worth the cost'
[12:03] <john-john> most companies have a year warranty on their item any
[12:04] <john-john> for free
[12:04] <Life^> well usually it's the manufacturer, not the company you buy it from
[12:04] <john-john> what do you mean company
[12:04] <john-john> my lcd monitor has a 2 year warranty for example
[12:05] <john-john> if it goes bad i simply drive to the headquarters and i guarantee they wi
[12:05] <Life^> well if you buy it from circuit city and there's a problem in warranty you go
[12:05] <rc--> yeah but those warranties are often less inclusive than the supposed extended
[12:05] <Life^> yeah exactly
[12:05] <rc--> i.e. 8 burnt out pixels for repair vs. 1
[12:05] <Life^> now there are lots of reasons to, and lots of reason not to buy a protection
[12:05] <john-john> chances are an item under $300 , they are just going to give you a new on

[12:06] <Life^> john-john: Lol hardly
[12:06] <john-john> i guess it depends on the item but generally i wouldn't get it
[12:06] <Life^> chances are if you don't buy it from the retail store (the plan), and you try
[12:06] <Life^> they will just say they can't return it, call the manufacturer
[12:06] <john-john> no its true. i've gotten a brand new a/c almost 3 yrs after purchase
[12:07] <john-john> yeah, the store will. the manufacturer has a surplus
[12:07] <john-john> you will get satisfaction dealing with the manf. the store are jackass
[12:07] <rc--> john-john yeah but what about a $2000 hdtv
[12:07] <john-john> i'd get the plan on that

[12:12] <maxfx> pixil i'm an asshole but u are dumb...

[12:20] <john-john> maxfx is going to apologize
[12:20] <john-john> ;x
[12:23] <GMouth> let him in so he can beg forgiveness
[12:24] <john-john> does anyone here use a UPS
[12:24] <compdoc> I have a couple

[12:26] <john-john> i mean the power supply thing
[12:26] <compdoc> oohhhh, the power suply thing
[12:26] <john-john> are they worth it
[12:26] <compdoc> yes
[12:28] <Merch^> saves a lot of hardrives
[12:29] <john-john> whats the diff between a 200 dolar and 50 dollar one
[12:29] <rhelic> damn, since when did they start shipping Indians to Virginia, and give them
[12:29] <rhelic> either this is some phone proxy, or just really bizarre
[12:29] <pixil> mIRC!
[12:30] <compdoc> the amps and battery size
[12:30] <compdoc> get at least 600 or more. 1000 is better
[12:30] <pixil> rhelic: Let me guess, his name is "Bob" or "Dan" ?
[12:30] <rhelic> Kris
[12:30] <john-john> 600 watts?
[12:31] <rhelic> pixil: heavy accept from a Virginia number, a recruiter that's bugging the h
[12:31] <compdoc> whatever they call it now
[12:31] <rhelic> pixil: I just had to email him a 3rd copy of my resume, and it's been less t
[12:31] <pixil> wow
[12:32] <pixil> "Next!"
[12:32] <pixil> heh
[12:32] <rhelic> pixil: yea but the job is paying too much to ignore him
[12:32] <rhelic> actually double the norm for the area... and it's a 12 month contracted gig
[12:32] <pixil> Money only matters at first, really
[12:32] <rhelic> with full benefits
[12:33] <rhelic> true, but the guy is just a recruiter, he doesn't work there
[12:33] <pixil> oh, good point
[12:33] <rhelic> if he did, I probably wouldn't take the job
[12:33] <rhelic> I swear to god if he calls me again to ask for my resume, I'm gonna bust out
[12:33] <rhelic> and I'm not even a racist
[12:34] <deww> i remember some guy asking me to go in for an interview and asked im the same
[12:34] <deww> i was like, yeah, you are even less coordinated than i am
[12:34] <rhelic> hehe
[12:35] <rhelic> also, he doesn't know what the IT terms are, as in has no idea that MS SQL S
[12:35] <deww> access 2000 for life
[12:35] <rhelic> That's one of my pet peeves
[12:35] <rhelic> being an IT recruiter and not even knowing what the terms are
[12:35] <deww> one of my interviews, i got stumped at the stupid HR type questions
[12:36] <deww> not technical
[12:36] <deww> *shrug*
[12:36] <rhelic> deww: share
[12:36] <deww> same ones you heard of
[12:36] <deww> "why should we hire you over x"
[12:36] <compdoc> I have a customer that uses access 2000, but theres always sharing problems
[12:36] <pixil> "why do you want to work here"
[12:36] <Mafaioz> When does heroes and smallville return ? :D
[12:36] <rhelic> any shop where HR handles IT interviews is a HUGE red flag for me... unless
[12:36] <rhelic> deww: I can do pretty well with those curve balls
[12:36] <rhelic> but yea, they're retarded... I'm paid to be a nerd, not a salesman
[12:36] <pixil> rhelic: HR is there to weed the 600 applicants down to a managable level.
[12:37] <rhelic> pixil: actually 99% of the jobs I interviewed at, never had HR in the mix, a
[12:37] <deww> that was just second job
[12:37] <rhelic> at the hospital, I use to handle all the developer/database hiring stuff
[12:38] <deww> i interviewed directly with the IT director
[12:38] <deww> got the job pretty much on the spot ^_^
[12:38] <deww> same as here i suppose
[12:38] <rhelic> my new favorite dumb question is when they ask me what my expected salary is
[12:38] <deww> IT first, HR second
[12:38] <rhelic> if they ask, more times than not, the pay is crap
[12:38] <rhelic> deww: yea, HR does to do their paperwork just before/after hiring
[12:38] <deww> i usually ask them back ;)
[12:39] <rhelic> I also like when people ask "Why are you no longer working at X"
[12:39] <pixil> Actually, I'm talking more about the paperwork HR handles before the intervie
[12:39] <pixil> I never spoke to HR until after IT chose me
[12:39] <rhelic> pixil: oh, yea, that's a given... I was referring purely to interview and fi
[12:40] <rhelic> HR will tend to see a job needing X, Y, Z and you have X, Y, M .... it just
[12:40] <rhelic> "Sorry, you have MS SQL 2005 and the job requires MS SQL 2000"
[12:40] <rhelic> That's when it's time to chok-a-bitch (escuse my French)
[12:41] <deww> anyone here experienced in setting up and using "Service center"?
[12:41] <deww> i believe it is from peregrine software
[12:42] <arod_> say i have 15 different class schedules and i want to filter them all out to
[12:42] <rhelic> arod_: you need a time management program, or to code something yourself
[12:42] <rhelic> arod_: or some pencil and paper and figure it out :P
[12:42] <arod_> =\
[12:43] <arod_> any time management program for mac you could suggest?
[12:43] <rhelic> oh mac? heh, good luck
[12:43] <rhelic> time to get out the pencil & paper
[12:43] <arod_> i could go onto the other computer with windows if there is nothing available
[12:44] <arod_> its just that there are going to be 15 more schedules i have to synch with on
[12:44] <rhelic> arod_: well it's called, doing a "busy search"
[12:44] <rhelic> I don't know of a specific program off hand, aside from what Outlook and Gro
[12:44] <rhelic> but that won't help you much
[12:45] <arod_> ok, thats all i needed to know. thought maybe you knew of one
[12:45] <arod_> i'll search around, see what i can come up with
[12:45] <rhelic> well if it's a onetime thing, pencil and paper is fastest :P
[12:45] <rhelic> if it's not, well where are you getting these times from? doesn't your emai
[12:46] <arod_> i'm the president of an organization on campus and i basically just need to f
[12:49] <deww> maybe something lik a calendering system
[12:49] <deww> like sunbird or something
[12:49] <deww> whatever mozilla has
[12:50] <rhelic> Sunbird doesn't have a native busy search iirc, but there might be a plugin
[12:50] <deww> hmm
[12:50] <deww> i was actually thinking of outlook + exchange's calendar
[12:50] <deww> where you can see if someone's busy
[12:52] <rhelic> deww: the fact he lists 15, makes it sounds like he wants it computer, not v
[12:52] <rhelic> but that's assumption for ya :)
[12:53] <arod_> just found something called "GroupWise Busy Search"
[12:53] <rhelic> GroupWise is Novell's email app
[12:53] <rhelic> it won't really help you, unless you already use GroupWise and those other p
[12:54] <arod_> oh, you can't input their schedules in there?
[12:54] <KhaOZ> it bad for this old inspiron 8100 to be at 131 degrees?
[12:54] <KhaOZ> wonderinf it that's a real bad temp, or if it's aight
[12:54] <xxl3w> is there a special program to read UDF DVD? everytime i try to read it, i get
[12:55] <rhelic> KhaOZ: Fareinheight right?
[12:56] <KhaOZ> yeah
[12:56] <rhelic> that's 55'c, which is good
[12:56] <rhelic> when referring to PC heat, talk in C
[12:56] <KhaOZ> the fans in the back make crazy noises is why i'm concerned
[12:56] <rhelic> KhaOZ: clean the fans
[12:56] <KhaOZ> it's long out of warrenty and i just need it to run a program to study on
[12:56] <KhaOZ> nothing other than that
[12:57] <KhaOZ> i'd rather not have to pop it open, since i'm not savy on laptops
[12:57] <KhaOZ> guess i could clean what i can see
[12:57] <xxl3w> anyone know about UDF dvds?

[14:09] <john-john> so no one here has a dv camcorder
[14:10] <copeland> john-john, what's the problem?
[14:10] <john-john> the fire wire port seems to be misfiring
[14:10] <copeland> is your firewire cable broken? they are quite fragile
[14:10] <john-john> no because i've tried other cables
[14:11] <john-john> i can hook it up by usb but the quality is horrible
[14:12] <Life^> lol misfiring? hahahahaha
[14:12] <john-john> :<
[14:12] <copeland> go buy a firewire hub or something: http://www.google.com/products?q=firew
[14:12] <copeland> or a new card i guess
[14:12] <copeland> haha
[14:13] <copeland> nm about the hub*
[14:13] <john-john> how would that help if the problem is on the camera
[14:13] <Life^> well what do you mean misfiring
[14:13] <Life^> it doesn't fire anything lol
[14:13] <copeland> what brand is it?
[14:13] <Life^> and what exactly are your symptoms?
[14:13] <copeland> Life^, it's FIREwire... duh
[14:13] <copeland> hahah
[14:13] <john-john> the brand is jvc
[14:14] <et_> lol
[14:14] <Life^> ugh jvc lol
[14:14] <john-john> i'm sure whatever brand i say the response will be, they suck
[14:14] <copeland> oo that sucks
[14:14] <john-john> actually its panasoni.
[14:14] <Life^> no jvc really does suck ;)
[14:14] <Life^> panasonic isn't as bad, some of their consumer sucks and their interface is h
[14:14] <Life^> but they try :)
[14:14] <Life^> Anyways, what exactly are your symptoms
[14:14] <john-john> different comapnies have different strengths
[14:14] <john-john> the symptom is, the computer doesn't recognize the camcorder anymore
[14:15] <Eistoeter> hi ... where can i ask questions about the c programming language?
[14:15] <copeland> john-john, http://pro.jvc.com/prof/support/index.jsp
[14:15] <john-john> its panaconics
[14:16] <et_> the os doesnt recognize
[14:16] <et_> possibly an update via win updates
[14:16] <john-john> for a camcorder
[14:16] <et_> the optional stuff
[14:17] <copeland> john-john, it's panasonic or jvc? if it's panasonic go here: http://www2.p
[14:17] <et_> they have optional updates
[14:17] <Life^> john-john: define doesn't recognize
[14:17] <john-john> doesn't do anything
[14:18] <Life^> umm is it showing up in device manager ;)
[14:18] <Life^> because doesn't do anything could mean lots of things
[14:18] <john-john> no
[14:18] <Dupper> Hi.
[14:18] <Dupper> What's a better investment, a PS3 or an iphone?
[14:19] <et_> lol
[14:19] <Life^> ugh none of the above
[14:19] <et_> ps3 offcourse i think
[14:19] <Dupper> Really.
[14:19] <copeland> xbox360
[14:19] <copeland> lol
[14:19] <Life^> those aren't investments since they don't provide any sort of direct return o
[14:19] <et_> at least your work cant call you on it
[14:19] <et_> lol
[14:19] <Dupper> et: When I'm not at work, I'm at home, at which place they can call me.
[14:19] <Dupper> Besides, I've never been called from work. :)
[14:20] <et_> good thing its not a good experience on time off
[14:20] <Dupper> I don't have a cellphone
[14:20] <Dupper> but I have everything else that an iphone/PS3 would do
[14:20] <copeland> Dupper, iphone's are more useful than a ps3 is going to be in your life
[14:20] <Dupper> PC, Wii, iPOD 30GB
[14:20] <Dupper> upscaling DVD player(is bluray really THAT much better?)
[14:20] <et_> ppl have survived without the iphone this long im sure they can in the future
[14:21] <Dupper> I can get a cheap cellphone but I'd have to carry it AND the ipod. Annoying
[14:21] <et_> lol
[14:21] <Dupper> And any bluray player will cost nearly as much as a PS3.
[14:21] <et_> get the shuffle
[14:21] <et_> its a lot smaller than the ipod
[14:22] <et_> well there are a lot of alternatives comming out
[14:22] <Dupper> I like having the hard drive.
[14:22] <et_> i think scandisk has a nice thing out too
[14:22] <et_> kinda like the ipod but does more
[14:23] <et_> then the zune
[14:23] <Dupper> iphone's plans suck.
[14:23] <et_> too
[14:23] <Dupper> scandisk? Sandisk?
[14:23] <Dupper> I think the zune is the only other one with a hard drive
[14:23] <et_> yeah my bad
[14:23] <et_> sandisk
[14:23] <Dupper> iphone rate plans start at 60 and it's a crappy plan.
[14:24] <KaMiKaZa> I have download manager and form login based site to download from, after
[14:24] <Dupper> I'd rather have a regular phone with unlimited minutes.

[14:54] <trogdork> are military time and 'utc' time the same thing?
[14:54] <Dupper> so which is more of a waste of money then, PS3 or iphone?
[14:55] <Life^> they are both huge wastes of money ;)
[14:55] <Life^> ahahaha okay I'll stop being difficult
[14:56] <Life^> Depends what your goal is, but more or less the ps3 will be a bigger waste of
[14:56] <Dupper> If it's true you're not being difficult.
[14:56] <Dupper> Well isn't a waste of money the opposite of a waste of time?
[14:56] <Dupper> think about it.
[14:57] <Dupper> See I was in a wreck lately, and it was scary, since I have no cell phone.
[14:58] <Life^> well if you don't have a cell
[14:58] <Life^> then the most useful thing would probably be an iphone
[14:58] <TJB> hello
[14:59] <john-john> i think my hard drive is on its last legs
[14:59] <Dupper> why, johnny?
[14:59] <john-john> mother board, i mean
[14:59] <john-john> things go on the fritz at random
[14:59] <Sycho> you mean sound card
[14:59] <john-john> like now i can't open explorer but i can bring it up through IE
[15:00] <john-john> no not just that
[15:00] <TJB> Okay so using XP SP2 and sonic recordnow....I successfully burn a CD with 100 m
[15:00] <Sycho> lol i was being pedantic
[15:00] <john-john> sometimes mirc hangs
[15:00] <Sycho> ..i think
[15:00] <john-john> that's illegal
[15:00] <TJB> Why is computer A reading all burnt CDs as blanks?
[15:00] <Life^> TJB: Probably some sorta random custom noniso data format being burned
[15:01] <TJB> But it works on computer B
[15:01] <TJB> which is nearly identical
[15:01] <Dupper> It's mad @ you
[15:01] <TJB> same patch level, everything
[15:01] <TJB> both Dell OptiPlex GX620
[15:01] <TJB> same software package
[15:02] <Dupper> They are conspiring against your sanity.
[15:02] <TJB> yeah i guess
[15:02] <TJB> is there some registry setting for "piss off user"
[15:02] <TJB> I'd like to set that to dword 0
[15:03] <Life^> can the other computer burn stuff that is readable onb oth
[15:03] <TJB> no
[15:03] <TJB> computer A reads all burnt CDs as blank

[15:10] <Jumpie> why!
[15:10] <Ghostwolf> whatever that peice of shit virus was I missed something
[15:10] <Ghostwolf> it's disabled my keyboard in windows
[15:11] <Ghostwolf> nod32 finds nothing, spynot finds nothing
[15:11] <Ghostwolf> hijackthis is clean
[15:11] <Ghostwolf> auto-runs is clean
[15:11] <Ghostwolf> nothing in services
[15:11] <Ghostwolf> uninstalling/reinstalling driver didn't work
[15:11] <Jumpie> hahaah
[15:11] <Jumpie> you got a virus? werent you just makin fun of me about thats last night
[15:12] <Ghostwolf> this was one of my stupid msn contacts
[15:12] <Jumpie> how are you tpying if your keyboard is disabled?
[15:12] <Ghostwolf> winpe
[15:12] <Jumpie> k
[15:12] <Ghostwolf> still works in here
[15:12] <Ghostwolf> so it
[15:12] <Ghostwolf> 's not the keyboard iow
[15:12] <Jumpie> and you've already verified this
[15:12] <Ghostwolf> ya 2 keyboards right now
[15:12] <Ghostwolf> 1 pci one usb
[15:12] <Jumpie> when you look in control panel
[15:13] <Jumpie> what is the driver showing for your keyboard?
[15:13] <Jumpie> and does you rkeyboard work in safe mode?
[15:13] <Ghostwolf> nope
[15:13] <Ghostwolf> not in safe mode
[15:13] * Life^ is now known as Hirogen4
[15:13] * Hirogen4 is now known as Life^
[15:13] <Ghostwolf> device manager states the drivers are fine... but it can't find the hardw
[15:13] <Jumpie> is this a usb or ps2
[15:13] <Ghostwolf> both
[15:14] <Ghostwolf> however usb mouse attached to the same transceiver as the usb keyboard wo
[15:14] <Jumpie> when u plug in usb does th emachine make a chime that it recognizes somethin
[15:14] <Ghostwolf> ya... it installs the drivers for keyboard & mouse
[15:14] <Ghostwolf> but only mouse starts working
[15:15] <jackal^> try it on other computer
[15:15] <Jumpie> hmm
[15:15] <Jumpie> find an alternate location/version and replace your keyboard.sys ?
[15:15] <Jumpie> its probably reusing the same driver
[15:15] <Ghostwolf> hmmm
[15:15] <Jumpie> should be cached if youp have an i386 directory
[15:15] <Jumpie> or find it off an OS cd...but i'll bein a cab file probably
[15:16] <Ghostwolf> well just replaced it
[15:16] <Ghostwolf> dates & times matched though
[15:17] <Jumpie> ok
[15:17] <Jumpie> also
[15:17] <Jumpie> does your keyboard workin cmos
[15:17] <Jumpie> will it let you enter setup?
[15:17] <Ghostwolf> yep
[15:17] <Jumpie> because at that point os isnt even loaded
[15:17] <Jumpie> hmm..ok
[15:17] <Jumpie> verify thsoe settings too?
[15:17] <Ghostwolf> ya I'm pretty sure it's virus related
[15:17] <Ghostwolf> I did
[15:17] <Ghostwolf> though there's no keyboard settings in there
[15:17] <Jumpie> usb settings, irq/port, also verify if ps2 got disabled...some virus can do
[15:17] <Jumpie> it may not say keyboard
[15:17] <Jumpie> but say ps2
[15:17] <Ghostwolf> only real thing to check was make sure PnP os was marked
[15:18] <Ghostwolf> which it was
[15:18] <Ghostwolf> this bios very simple... you can't touch usb or ps2 at all
[15:18] <Jumpie> thats gay
[15:19] <Ghostwolf> nah... it's a gaming board... designed for over clocking & shit
[15:19] <Ghostwolf> but anyways
[15:19] <Ghostwolf> googled for virus disabled keyboard & the hits returned suggested a VBS p
[15:19] <Ghostwolf> how do I track something like that?
[15:21] <Jumpie> hmm
[15:21] <Jumpie> run a registry analyzer?
[15:21] <Jumpie> checks realtime hits to registry
[15:21] <Jumpie> and non microsoft process checker/viewer
[15:21] <Jumpie> i've seen some stuff hijackthis even misses
[15:21] <Jumpie> and they are pretty good most of the time
[15:22] <Ghostwolf> safe to delete everything in C:\System Volume Information manually?
[15:22] <Jumpie> hmmm
[15:22] <Jumpie> answer is probably yes
[15:22] <Jumpie> but its like brain surgery
[15:22] <Jumpie> just like registr
[15:25] <MrBucket> Hello!
[15:25] <rhelic> Ghostwolf: I have no idea what's in that, but I wouldn't touch it

[15:26] <omshanti> computer help?
[15:26] <rhelic> just ask
[15:26] <bizinichi> what should i get if i want to backup like 15 gigs of stuff? i intend to
[15:26] <omshanti> I'm going on vacation and don't want the people in my house using my 'pute
[15:26] <rhelic> portable HD
[15:27] <rhelic> bizinichi: get a notebook size drive with a disk enclosure
[15:27] <bizinichi> looking for economical stuff, is it better to get flash drive vs port hdd
[15:27] <omshanti> there is a way to password protect the whole system?
[15:27] <rhelic> HDD, flash gets very expensive after 8gb
[15:27] <bizinichi> i see
[15:27] <bizinichi> so the kind thats in laptops?
[15:27] <bizinichi> the 2.5 ones
[15:27] <Ghostwolf> well seems clean anyways
[15:28] * omshanti takes a number
[15:28] <bizinichi> is that what they put in those prepackaged portable hdds, the WD passport
[15:28] <Ghostwolf> far as I can tell by going by the txt files
[15:28] <Kasino> ive been using nti to backup my harddrive, not the entire thing, just like m
[15:28] <Kasino> first time i used it it was about 6 gigs to backup
[15:29] <Kasino> then it was 8, and now its backing up 20 gigs of files
[15:29] <Kasino> the thing is, i dont have 20 gigs of files selected
[15:29] <Kasino> i just have my documents folder and my mirc folder to backup, and mydocument
[15:30] <Kasino> oh heres a good new one, windows explorer crashes when i click properties on
[15:31] <Ghostwolf> welp I'll be back later... couple things to try now
[15:38] <TheUni> Kasino: could be a bad shell extension
[15:40] * toad946 is now known as zyme
[15:40] <ddrj> is tmobile cdma or gsm?
[15:41] <Osc> google says gsm
[15:44] <zyme> question, where can I find a DHCP Client for windows XP?
[15:44] <ddrj> thanks Osc
[15:44] <ddrj> you're right, i just googled too, gsm, verizon is cdma
[15:44] <Osc> zyme: it's built in
[15:45] <zyme> I know windows xp comes with one built in, but I'm in need of a different one
[15:47] <Osc> zyme: probably the only thing you will find would be a 3rd party tcp/ip stack
[15:47] <Osc> and good luck with that
[15:48] <Osc> if you want, tell us why you want a 3rd party dhcp client for windows and we mi
[15:51] <zyme> well, the DHCP Client service starts, but the computer still pulls a 169 addre
[15:52] <TheUni> heh
[15:52] <TheUni> zyme: sure you got the router hooked up right?
[15:52] <zyme> I can boot the comptuer with a WinPE disk and it gets an IP from DHCP
[15:52] <zyme> and I can staticly set the IP and reach the surfboards admin interface

[15:55] <Osc> why for you are to be smacking my own personal style self?

[15:55] <TheUni> i was working my way towards a winsock reset :P
[15:56] <TheUni> zyme: netsh winsock reset is great to try... can't really break anything

[16:08] <TheUni> you do a winsock reset?
[16:09] <zyme> working on that now ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811259 )

[16:13] <Torob> when getting webhosting, is it best to get windows system or unix?

[16:13] <Torob> i heard windows comes with mssql and somethin, but unix comes with mysql?
[16:13] <TheUni> predata: in xp, i usually set a batch file at startup to do a "net use" rath

[16:15] <Osc> with unix you will have all sorts of things
[16:15] <Torob> okay crap i gotta see if they will switch this from windows to unix

[18:22] <rhelic> where does Winamp 5.5 hide the album art option, I'm sick of it popping up e
[18:26] <Kinjin> omnisient you can access the web interface of the router
[18:28] <Andre66_> is it true that all Intel Q6600 CPUs are locked so they cannot be overcloc
[18:28] <Andre66_> Q6600 is locked, meaning there is no option of overclocking this quad core
[18:28] <Andre66_> is this right?
[18:29] <Kinjin> even if the multiplier is locked you might still be able to over clock it by

[18:32] <rhelic> Andre66_: although with the 45nm chips coming out, imho a dual core 45nm is
[18:32] <rhelic> and if it comes to video encoding, actually the 45nm is still better

[18:46] <rhelic> until it clears
[18:46] <gazebo> oh, there's no limit?
[18:46] <gazebo> i mean last time i talked to a friend, he said like 30 days
[18:46] <rhelic> well I'm sure it'll fail with no response after 3 or 3 days
[18:46] <gazebo> or something
[18:47] <rhelic> that's crazy
[18:47] <rhelic> it takes about 3 days to take your money and put it in your bank account, bu
[18:47] <rhelic> 30 days would only happen if there was some kind of investigation
[18:47] <gazebo> oh no what I meant is
[18:47] <gazebo> i got funds on my paypal account
[18:48] <rhelic> but like I said, paypal doesn't really hold the money at all, it's the banks
[18:48] <gazebo> but i did not input any bank account...
[18:48] <gazebo> the funds are just sitting there
[18:49] <rhelic> ok, so what's your question?
[18:50] <rhelic> paypal is kind of like a real bank, you have an account, it will sit there f
[18:50] <rhelic> unless you withdraw it (to your bank account)
[18:50] <Fire_Star> paypal has interest?
[18:50] <rhelic> yes, very good interest, higher than any bank
[18:50] <rhelic> I think it's like 3.5%
[18:50] <gazebo> oh
[18:50] <gazebo> really?
[18:51] <Fire_Star> kool. 3.5's not bad.. but there's other online banks with higher interes
