[01:22] <sunra> hi. does it seem feasible that I can get a microSD usb card reader for 10 cen
[01:22] <sunra> or is this suspicious?
[01:22] <blc> considering they are practically thrown after you anywhere else, it's feasible.
[01:23] <blc> trying to scam people for 10 cents wouldn't be very lucrative anyway
[01:23] <sunra> haha not scamming for the 10 cents but maybe being able to access some accoun
[01:25] <blc> that would be new to me..

[06:33] <ThyEff> hey guys.
[06:33] <ThyEff> quick question.
[06:33] <ThyEff> will it make a diff if i pumped petrol into my vtech engine from a diff petr
[06:34] <ThyEff> http://www.google.com.sg/search?q=what+will+happen+if+i+pump+petrol+from+dif
[06:34] <RBL> <ThyEff> http://tinyurl.com/2byrq8
[06:34] <compdoc> told them 95 for all the stations?
[06:34] <compdoc> dont know what that means
[06:35] <ThyEff> RBL>?
[06:35] <ThyEff> Compdoc> its the type of petrol, i'm guessing
[06:36] <compdoc> I buy gas from whatever station Im closest to
[06:36] <ThyEff> well. what if you go by a differnt station?
[06:36] <ThyEff> like a road trip or msth. then you see ANOTHE station.
[06:36] * TheMan_ is now known as rhelic
[06:36] <compdoc> one that doesnt accept your card?
[06:36] <ThyEff> i usually pump my gas at caltex, but i was stanrded thats why i went to esso
[06:37] <ThyEff> i pay cash. but i'm worried about the gas the pump into ma ride.
[06:37] <CowNose> where do you live ThyEff?
[06:38] <ThyEff> singapore. lolzoeroasrna
[06:38] <compdoc> as long as the octane works...
[06:38] <CowNose> some countries, all gas is the same, others... you must be more carefull
[06:38] <ThyEff> i know. abit irrelvent. but i thought you guys knew some answer.
[06:38] <ThyEff> :S
[06:38] <CowNose> 3rd world countries can have crappy gas
[06:38] <ThyEff> well the goverment says we're 1st world country
[06:38] <ThyEff> not very sure about that.
[06:39] <CowNose> in places like india, you see many trucks, because trucks can handle the cr
[06:39] <ThyEff> anyway. i pumped at shell, caltex, and esso.
[06:39] <bizinichi> does this sentence sound ok? i am concerned about the bit after impregnab
[06:39] <ThyEff> and they all costs differnt price. meaning differnt 95 octanes are put into
[06:39] <CowNose> what do you drive theyff?
[06:39] <ThyEff> honda Civic V.tech 1.6L
[06:41] <compdoc> tiny little thing
[06:41] <CowNose> ThyEff my advice is to just use your best judgement when picking a station
[06:41] <CowNose> biznichi: No, that doesn't look right
[06:41] <compdoc> my ranger has a 3.0L
[06:42] <bizinichi> CowNose whats wrong with it, its replaceable with 'impossible' and then i
[06:42] <CowNose> "With such a vigorous method for justifying knowledge, it is virtually impo
[06:42] <ThyEff> best judgement? i told them, 95. they said: yes yes. ok. 95. but i saw like
[06:43] <bizinichi> why cant i fllow up the [to .... ] phrase after 'impregnable'
[06:43] <bizinichi> *follow
[06:43] <bizinichi> but i can with 'impossible'
[06:44] <CowNose> in john's framework."
[06:44] <ThyEff> well lets say, worse case scenenario, they pumped a inferior 95octane into m
[06:44] <CowNose> short term, it won't be a problem, long term it is bad for the engine
[06:45] <CowNose> ie: if you keep pumping inferior gas the engine will have problems, but for
[06:45] <CowNose> just get better gas next time and it will all be clear
[06:45] <bizinichi> yeah thats why i said 'within john's framework'
[06:45] <ThyEff> okay. i'm sticking with caltex :|
[06:46] <CowNose> biznachi: yes perhaps just replace impregnible with impossible, however the
[06:46] <ThyEff> thanks guys.
[06:46] <ThyEff> nights
[06:46] <bizinichi> thats why i didnt want to use it
[06:46] <bizinichi> :/
[06:47] <CowNose> can rephrase the whole thing, let me try

[06:48] <CowNose> ?
[06:48] <bizinichi> hm
[06:48] <bizinichi> yeah that works

[07:48] <rhelic> that and the fact you can't really push 1080p over analog anyways
[07:48] <ender-> so basically CowNose, VGA/SVGA/ETC cables arnt digital, they're analog
[07:48] <ender-> still doesnt answer my question about the diff between them
[07:48] <rhelic> different formats for different purposes

[07:49] <rhelic> correct, HDMI, DVI & DisplayPort are the only digital standards

[07:50] <rhelic> is the projector 1080p?
[07:50] <ender-> no
[07:51] <rhelic> what is it?

[07:51] <Van_Aoshi> how can i set the default for all folders to list fies by name instead of

[07:51] <ender-> sorry they refer to a projector with 800x600 native as an SVGA projector
[07:51] <Van_Aoshi> i checked folder options
[07:52] <ender-> but it will do most resolutions
[07:52] <rhelic> ender-: well then that's the res you have to use, and a VGA cable is more th

[07:54] <rhelic> ender-: if the projector displays it, then all it does is downsample to 800x
[07:54] <ender-> i sure as hell dont wanna run it as 800x600
[07:54] <rhelic> well buy a better projector
[07:54] <rhelic> you obviously don't understand what's going on here
[07:54] <ender-> dude, ok im done, u dont understand what im asking
[07:54] <rhelic> 1920x1200 won't look any better than 800x600 on that projector
[07:54] <rhelic> perhaps, but you don't understand resolution and lcd technology
[07:54] <ender-> no shit but it will on my monitor that is a clone of the projector
[07:55] <ender-> ok
[07:55] <rhelic> ok, well if the projector downsamples, then go for it
[07:55] <rhelic> but realize small text would be unreadable

[08:07] <rhelic> ahh
[08:07] <Ox40> like the first one there...
[08:07] <rhelic> Knowing Google, that's entirely automated, based upon the site's ranking
[08:08] <Ox40> ok... well i gotta go
[08:08] <Ox40> thanks
[08:08] <rhelic> Google never likes to do anything manual in their search results
[08:09] <rhelic> hmm, I can't tell if the FireFox2 update fixed my instalibility issues or no
[08:09] <TraMcLady> what was the instability
[08:13] <rhelic> TraMcLady: http://www.perpetualhypemachine.com/pix/StillWorks.jpg
[08:14] <rhelic> I suspect as my power flucuates, my CPU mobo doesn't have enough power, and
[08:25] * clz is now known as Clz
[08:29] <mega`> is there a shortcut key in IE7 to change text size, without zooming the whole
[08:29] <phisher1> to change like.. selected text size?
[08:30] <mega`> no, the whole page text
[08:30] <phisher1> ctrl-+
[08:30] <mega`> it zooms in/out images together with text
[08:31] <phisher1> well i dunno about ie
[08:31] <phisher1> i don't use ie =\
[08:31] <rhelic> mega`: that's considered an improvement
[08:31] <mega`> i also dont use ie most of the time
[08:31] <rhelic> because in webdesign, so many pages depend on the width of the text
[08:31] <rhelic> so by zooming everything, there's no breakage
[08:32] <ender-> how do you zoom everything in firefox?
[08:32] <rhelic> FF2 doesn't have zoom
[08:32] <mega`> rhelic: i know its an improvement, but for me, most of the time only text enl
[08:33] <rhelic> sux2bu :)
[08:33] <mega`> ff3 will have page zoom
[08:33] <rhelic> I've been using the FF3 beta, but I haven't looked for it, don't really care
[08:33] <mega`> not really rhelic because i use firefox and it has text-only enlargement
[08:33] <ender-> i dunno what version of IE i have, but View>Text Size doesnt work for you
[08:34] <ender-> oh shortcut
[08:34] <mega`> yes, shortcut... :)
[08:35] <ender-> umm Alt+v, Down,Down,Down,Down,Down, Right, Up (or down), Enter
[08:35] <ender-> :)
[08:35] <ender-> like a mortal kombat move
[08:35] <phisher1> hah
[08:35] <mega`> alt+vxg =)
[08:35] <phisher1> up,up,down,down,left,right,left,right,b,a,start ftw
[08:36] <ender-> there ya go
[08:36] <rhelic> oh, IE7 does still have the old IE6 text resize
[08:36] <rhelic> although, like IE6, it only works on some text
[08:37] <n00b846> hi
[08:37] <n00b846> where can i find a free bouncer?
[08:37] * n00b846 is now known as Oneday
[08:37] <Lindy_> try google
[08:37] <Oneday> i mean only for this server
[08:37] <phisher1> don't try google
[08:37] <XB23> guys ive got a weird weird problem here, my dns server returns the correct ip
[08:37] <phisher1> XB23: multiple A records
[08:37] <rhelic> google is the devil, try live.com and drink your koolaide
[08:38] <XB23> nah phisher1 theres only one
[08:38] <phisher1> what domain ?
[08:38] <Lindy_> oh ok
[08:38] <XB23> box.xb23.net
[08:39] <phisher1> did the record change recently ?
[08:39] <XB23> nope shouldnt have
[08:39] <XB23> * Dns resolving box.xb23.net * Dns resolved box.xb23.net to 67.159.0.4
[08:39] <XB23> thats what i get
[08:39] <XB23> have no idea where the 0.4 comes from
[08:40] <blase> ipconfig /flushdns and try again?
[08:40] <XB23> yeh i have
[08:40] <XB23> dosent change
[08:40] <phisher1> you're using your isp's nameservers on the machine you are running your ir
[08:40] <Oneday> how can i connect to this server by irc
[08:40] <XB23> yes phisher1 virgin media
[08:40] <phisher1> Oneday: you are connected to a server by irc.
[08:41] <Oneday> no
[08:41] <Oneday> by a cgi :;p
[08:41] <blase> what is your current dns server's ip?
[08:41] <phisher1> was what I was getting at..
[08:41] <XB23> how do i check that blase
[08:41] <phisher1> ipconfig /all
[08:41] <phisher1> oh sorry
[08:41] <blase> ipconfig /all
[08:41] <XB23> ill check
[08:41] <phisher1> blase, go right ahead
[08:42] <phisher1> i've got some work to do anyway
[08:42] <phisher1> all yours
[08:42] * blase shrugs
[08:42] <blase> i need to go to bed soon anyway
[08:42] <XB23> 192.168.2.1 194.168.4.100 194.168.8.100
[08:42] <blase> hmm
[08:43] <XB23> its funny cause i have problems resolving other dns's occasionally to
[08:43] <phisher1> welp, that was quick
[08:44] <blase> do you just want a solution, or do you want to figure out what's wrong?
[08:44] <phisher1> well at least they aren't lame enough to have unrestricted recursive dns s
[08:45] <phisher1> 67.159.26.5 is the IP address the entire internet will soon see if not alr
[08:45] <phisher1> maybe you have a hosts entry ?
[08:45] <blase> hosts entry shouldn't get returned by a /dns
[08:45] <XB23> hmm
[08:46] <blase> so, do you just want a solution, or do you want to figure out what's wrong?
[08:47] <XB23> well a solution
[08:47] <XB23> lol
[08:48] <XB23> be nice to know whats wrong as well though
[08:48] <blase> probably your isp's dns servers are screwed up
[08:48] <DareDavil> what ircd doe efnet uses
[08:48] <phisher1> DareDavil: ratbox and hybrid
[08:48] <phisher1> it it matters to you
[08:48] <phisher1> I'd like you would know how to find that out.
[08:49] <phisher1> i'd think you would know*
[08:49] <blase> XB23: i'd suggest using opendns's dns servers. you can read instructions on
[08:49] <XB23> k
[08:49] <phisher1> we just started using those at work
[08:50] <blase> yeah, good stuff for users... is it really so useful for companies though?
[08:50] <DareDavil> phisher1 whats the most secure and flexible ircd?
[08:50] <rhelic> ok I'm installing SP1 on my Vista laptop, *crosses fingers*
[08:50] <blase> secure and flexible usually don't mix. but oh well...
[08:51] <rhelic> haha, yes, very true
[08:51] <rhelic> features cause security holes
[08:51] <phisher1> DareDavil: secure meaning most tested and attempted to break ?
[08:51] <phisher1> probably hybrid
[08:51] <phisher1> flexible meaning.. ehh.. well I don't know what that would mean for an irc
[08:52] <phisher1> able to bend ?
[08:52] <phisher1> unrealircd is the easiest ircd
[08:52] <blase> rofl
[08:52] <rhelic> what, did you just get FiOS and want to run your own irc network?
[08:52] <dingalin> what are the speeds on fios now?
[08:52] <DareDavil> phisher1 yes
[08:53] <phisher1> 40 gigabit down/1.2Mbit up
[08:53] <blase> 40gbps down?!?
[08:53] <DareDavil> phisher1 able to bend for ease . change commands. veriety. etc.. contrl.
[08:53] <phisher1> no
[08:53] <phisher1> not really =)
[08:53] <phisher1> DareDavil: do you have a clue what you're talking about?
[08:53] <dingalin> those speeds are horrible
[08:53] <dingalin> you can tell they want to compete with optimum
[08:53] <phisher1> not trying to be rude..just seems to me you probably don't
[08:54] <dingalin> optimum is 30Mbit down 3Mbit up
[08:54] <phisher1> http://www22.verizon.com/content/consumerfios/packages+and+prices/packages
[08:54] <dingalin> wow
[08:54] <dingalin> verizon is highway robbery
[08:54] <rhelic> damn... 1TB SATA HD for $240 @ Fry's
[08:54] <dingalin> 43 dollars offering dsl like speeds
[08:55] <phisher1> thats the package you're not supposed to get
[08:55] <phisher1> 65/m for 15/15
[08:55] <blase> hmm. maybe xb23 applied dns changes to his router config
[08:55] <phisher1> 15mbit up
[08:55] <phisher1> nifty
[08:55] <dingalin> I don't get it
[08:55] <DareDavil> phisher1 like if i want every one to give a code or letter before connect
[08:55] <XB[afk]> right thats updated the routers
[08:55] <blase> XB[afk]: works now?
[08:55] <dingalin> why would they offer those plans if they were trying to compete with optim
[08:55] <XB[afk]> lets see if this works
[08:55] <dingalin> Neither of their plans go above 30Mbit
[08:55] <dingalin> err
[08:55] <dingalin> 15Mbit
[08:55] <phisher1> DareDavil: unrealircd with ssl enabled and an Iline or ehh connection clas
[08:55] <DareDavil> phisher1 or i want to make all commands like i want them. all chanserv or
[08:56] <phisher1> yes but
[08:56] <phisher1> configuration of such commands isn't always simple
[08:56] <phisher1> you don't get checkboxes that say 'turn on cool features here'
[08:56] <rhelic> dingalin: no, those prices are very good
[08:56] <XB[afk]> still doing it
[08:56] <XB[afk]> nslookup has gone strange
[08:56] <phisher1> oO
[08:57] <XB[afk]> its returning box.xb23.net.Local and the ip as the dns server ip
[08:57] <XB[afk]> (the opendns one)
[08:57] <XB[afk]> when i lookup box.xb23.net using nslookup
[08:57] <phisher1> it's returning a hostname ?
[08:57] <blase> DareDavil: you sound like you'd want one of those commercial ircds with gui/w
[08:58] <blase> eh, that's not right
[08:58] <XB[afk]> yeh hold on
[08:58] <blase> the opendns servers are definitely returning the right ip; i've checked
[08:58] <blase> at least, they are in the data centre closest to me.
[08:59] <DareDavil> phisher1 , blase - i just want to use an ircd provider. pay. setup a secu
[08:59] <XB[afk]> nslookup box.xb23.net

[08:59] <phisher1> not wise to paste in here
[09:00] <DareDavil> is hybrid free?
[09:00] <XB[afk]> ah sorry
[09:00] <phisher1> DareDavil: do you have any experience using linux or unix ?
[09:00] <XB[afk]> DareDavil: if u want a simple ircd, use unreal its made for new users
[09:00] <XB[afk]> and it runs on windows
[09:00] <DareDavil> yes
[09:00] <phisher1> ah thats right..there is a windows version
[09:01] <DareDavil> i use linux
[09:01] <rhelic> I want an ircd that I can admin via my Xbox360 controller!
[09:01] <XB[afk]> phisher1: the above is the output from nslookup
[09:01] <DareDavil> i need linux one
[09:01] <DareDavil> and most secure
[09:01] <phisher1> unrealircd seems easy to make custom commands
[09:01] <phisher1> looking at their examples now
[09:02] <XB[afk]> DareDavil: unreal is nice as long as you dont have a massive userload you'l
[09:02] <DareDavil> if hybrid is one. ill go for it\
[09:02] <XB[afk]> anything over 10k unreal falls over on its feet
[09:02] <phisher1> XB[afk]: that's just showing you their nameservers
[09:02] <phisher1> oh wait
[09:02] <phisher1> uhh
[09:02] <phisher1> hell I don't know man
[09:02] <XB[afk]> could it be this pc is infected with something?
[09:02] <phisher1> I don't use their service.. they might have some proxying type thing
[09:02] <rhelic> are we talking about XP or a realy Windows Server ?
[09:02] <XB[afk]> spyware or somet
[09:02] <phisher1> nslookup
[09:02] <phisher1> enter
[09:02] <phisher1> server 4.2.2.2
[09:02] <rhelic> let's not forget XP capping connections after you hit 7 or whatever
[09:02] <dingalin> guys admit it
[09:03] <phisher1> box.xb32.net
[09:03] <phisher1> enter
[09:03] <phisher1> what ip
[09:03] <dingalin> just admit that FIOS is a ripoff
[09:03] <phisher1> dingalin: its a ripoff
[09:03] <phisher1> done ?
[09:03] <dingalin> =)
[09:03] <DareDavil> can i make custom commands in hybrid?
[09:03] <XB[afk]> yeh phisher1
[09:03] <XB[afk]> that resolved it fine
[09:03] <rhelic> dingalin: you get superior latency and true speed, compared to some cable pl
[09:03] <phisher1> so use that nameserver
[09:03] <XB[afk]> k
[09:04] <blase> that 208.69.32.130 is really strange...
[09:04] <DareDavil> is it free?
[09:04] <rhelic> dingalin: I will admin that my cable is 10/1 for $45/month
[09:04] <XB[afk]> DareDavil: u can make custom commands in any open source ircd
[09:04] <rhelic> dingalin: but I'd trade that for 5/2 if I could
[09:04] <XB[afk]> but unreal supports it better
[09:04] <XB[afk]> you have to know C or Cpp though
[09:04] <phisher1> incorrect
[09:04] <dingalin> rhelik what company
[09:04] <phisher1> you can make aliases to do just about anything in unreal
[09:05] <phisher1> unrealircd is free
[09:05] <rhelic> dingalin: Road Runner in Central New York
[09:05] <XB[afk]> oh yeh ya can do aliases
[09:05] <phisher1> go to their website
[09:05] <phisher1> download, read the docs
[09:05] <XB[afk]> my bad
[09:05] <rhelic> dingalin: if you're a PC gamer, you'd prefer FiOS, no lag
[09:05] <dingalin> Rhelik I would not trade my 55$ month optimum 30/5 for the 15/15
[09:05] <rhelic> heck, an Xbox 360 gamer, which I am
[09:05] <phisher1> 30/5 ugh
[09:05] <rhelic> dingalin: 30/5? show me a speed test
[09:05] <dingalin> ok one second
[09:05] <phisher1> I wish comcast would follow suite
[09:05] <XB[afk]> hey phisher1 that 4.2.2.2 i there second dns server
[09:05] <XB[afk]> is*
[09:05] <blase> oh, opendns returns their own webserver 208.69.32.130 when a hostname can't b
[09:05] <phisher1> XB[afk]: 4.2.2.1, 4.2.2.2, 4.2.2.3
[09:06] <dingalin> not familiar with optimum online?
[09:06] <XB[afk]> yeh blase thats what i dont get
[09:06] <XB[afk]> cause i was looking up box.xb23.net the princenet came outta nowhere
[09:06] <blase> XB[afk]: your local lan is called princenet?
[09:06] <XB[afk]> thats the name of my wireless network though
[09:06] <rhelic> dingalin: here's the one I use http://web100.rit.edu:7123/
[09:06] <XB[afk]> yeh blase
[09:07] <blase> windows probably appends its name if the first one can't be found
[09:07] <DareDavil> is hybrid free?
[09:07] <XB[afk]> DareDavil: yes its opensource
[09:07] <blase> try this for me. nslookup <enter> server 208.67.222.222 <enter>
[09:07] <XB[afk]> let me try
[09:07] <blase> note the period after box.xb23.net
[09:08] <XB[afk]> yeh that worked blase
[09:08] <XB[afk]> the .
[09:08] <blase> and try without the . again? just box.xb23.net ?
[09:08] <dingalin> running 10s inbound test (server-to-client [S2C]) . . . . . . 13.94Mb/s u
[09:08] <XB[afk]> now its .princenet
[09:08] <XB[afk]> wtf is that all about lol
[09:09] <DareDavil> helo
[09:09] <ASk> .princenet - sounds like a dns prefix
[09:09] <ASk> make sure that your network settings don't define one
[09:09] <rhelic> hmm, looks like I've been upgraded and didn't know it, my 10/1 gave me 18.9
[09:09] <XB[afk]> its a lan network name ASk
[09:09] * blase shrugs. it ain't supposed to append a dns suffix unless the query couldn't be found
[09:10] <XB[afk]> when i do /dns box.xb23.net in mIRC it resolves great though
[09:10] <XB[afk]> without the .
[09:10] <DareDavil> XB[afk] is hybrid open source and free?
[09:10] <blase> that's 'cos you've changed your nameservers to 4.2.2.1?
[09:10] <blase> DareDavil: yep.
[09:10] <XB[afk]> yeh blase
[09:10] <dingalin> rhelic check the results: http://www.speedtest.net/result/232035992.png
[09:11] <dingalin> that site you gave me wasn't topping my speeds
[09:11] <blase> XB[afk]: anyway, as long as it now works for you.
[09:11] <XB[afk]> yes DareDavil: why not google 'open source ircd'
[09:11] <XB[afk]> yeh blc
[09:11] <XB[afk]> blase even
[09:11] <XB[afk]> lol
[09:11] <XB[afk]> hopefully this nameserver is a stable one
[09:11] <phisher1> DareDavil: do some of your own research please
[09:11] <DareDavil> phisher1?
[09:11] <rhelic> dingalin: nice
[09:11] <blc> heh.. first time someone typed that error
[09:11] <blc> usually they go the other way
[09:11] <XB[afk]> mind you, cant be any more unstable than virgin medias nameservers
[09:11] <blase> ;)
[09:12] <XB[afk]> lol blc :p
[09:12] <dingalin> see why I wouldn't trade it rhelic?
[09:12] <whaaz89> trying to get into the bios of an old compaq presario 5360... i read on a s
[09:12] <rhelic> dingalin: honestly, I never knew anybody had a plan that good in the US, the
[09:12] <blase> i think that's cos un doesn't like me anymore
[09:12] <rhelic> dingalin: but that's relative to your plan, the rest of the US, it's a good
[09:12] <dingalin> rhelic where do you live?
[09:12] <rhelic> Ithaca, NY
[09:12] <blase> anyway, sleepy time now
[09:12] <dingalin> you might be able to get optimum up there
[09:12] <rhelic> bing: let me try that test now
[09:13] <XB[afk]> brb
[09:13] <dingalin> optimum is mostly in the tristate area
[09:13] <dingalin> that's why fios first came to the tristate area
[09:13] <dingalin> they wanted to compete but it's obvious they couldn't
[09:14] <DareDavil> phisher1 XB[afk] ok. but it was just a game of yes or no. thanks btw :)
[09:14] <rhelic> dingalin: http://www.speedtest.net/result/232037268.png
[09:15] <dingalin> damn
[09:15] <dingalin> road runner never had a good rep
[09:15] <rhelic> let me try another server
[09:15] <rhelic> I'm going to use the one you did
[09:15] <XB23> got another problem , i cant resolve internal names now etc server james-la
[09:16] <dingalin> wins server correct xb?
[09:16] <XB23> how ya mean?
[09:16] <phisher1> XB23: how could you ever?
[09:16] <phisher1> if you were using your isp's nameservers, they knew nothing about your int
[09:16] <dingalin> you need a wins server to be able to resolve host names
[09:16] <XB23> ohh there we go its fine, my mistake wifi hadnt initialzed properly
[09:16] <phisher1> uhh no you don't
[09:17] <rhelic> dingalin: hmm, so this is claiming I only have ~4mbit down?
[09:17] <phisher1> netbios broadcast will allow you to resolve windows machine names
[09:17] <dingalin> yes rhelic
[09:17] <rhelic> well I'm getting 2.37 Mb/s on another server
[09:18] <dingalin> half of what you initially got
[09:19] <dingalin> what if netbios is disabled?
[09:19] <dingalin> you need wins don't you
[09:19] <rhelic> doesn't 2.37Mb = 18.96mbit?
[09:19] <dingalin> but you said you only have 10Mbit/s
[09:20] <rhelic> last I knew
[09:20] <dingalin> did you use speedtest or another site
[09:20] <rhelic> http://web100.rit.edu:7123/ gives me the best results, plus it's very close
[09:20] <rhelic> the test is a Java app
[09:21] <dingalin> running 10s inbound test (server-to-client [S2C]) . . . . . . 13.59Mb/s we
[09:21] <dingalin> wouldn't that mean that it's well over 100Mbit/s
[09:22] <steve_at_> Hey guys. I need to remove a screw from the dash of my BMW. Like this htt
[09:24] <deww> steve_at_: it's a "short" ratchet as per the caption
[09:25] <steve_at_> is it a special kind though? I never seen one like this
[09:27] <rhelic> dingalin: hmm ok, I have no idea wtf that means then
[09:28] <Cointreau> where are the greek servers?
[09:28] <Cointreau> i lost them

[10:36] <pixil> DareDavil: Huh?
[10:37] <phisher1> pixil: repeats ?
[10:37] <phisher1> 12 unique array elements
[10:38] <pixil> Shouldn't be any repeats though
[10:38] <phisher1> hmm no
[10:38] <phisher1> n/m
[10:38] <pixil> I guess I better double check
[10:38] <DareDavil> pixil need to choose an ircd
[10:38] <phisher1> wow
[10:38] <phisher1> still on that
[10:38] <phisher1> DareDavil: try one of them
[10:38] <phisher1> see if it can do what you need
[10:38] <pixil> DareDavil: hybrid is mature. ratbox is nice, but not quite as mature.
[10:38] <phisher1> if not, try another.
[10:38] <pixil> unrealircd is good and solid, too.
[10:39] <deww> ratbox is based on hybrid :P
[10:39] <pixil> yes, but is full of lots of new code
[10:39] <deww> both have responsive devs
[10:39] <phisher1> pixil: do ${#hosts[@]}
[10:40] <pixil> phisher1: echo ${hosts[@]} | wc returns 20
[10:40] <pixil> phisher1: That just prints them all, though.
[10:40] <pixil> I guess I could just pipe that to wc. :-/
[10:40] <pixil> I hate being a hackjob
[10:40] <phisher1> what are you trying to achieve ?
[10:41] <DareDavil> pixil what do you think about inspircd ?
[10:41] <phisher1> echo ${hosts[@]} | wc should return 1
[10:41] <pixil> I'm trying to count all elements in the array
[10:41] <pixil> phisher1: Only if I count only lines.
[10:41] <pixil> wc without any options counts lines words and letters I believe
[10:42] <pixil> echo ${#host[*]} did the trick

[10:43] <pixil> very bizarre
[10:43] <phisher1> it works fine
[10:43] <pixil> The man page claims ${#array} should be all that's needed.
[10:44] <pixil> Oh well, 6 and 1/2 dozen of the other
[10:44] <pixil> thanks
[10:44] <DareDavil> pixil what do you think about inspircd ?
[10:44] <phisher1> heh
[10:44] <pixil> DareDavil: I don't have an opinion of an ircd that I haven't tried.
[10:44] <pixil> hybrid and ratbox are both solid. So is unrealircd.
[10:44] <DareDavil> phisher1 saying to me?
[10:44] <DareDavil> pixil ?
[10:45] <phisher1> ${#array_name} is the length (number of characters) of ${array_name[0]}
[10:45] <pixil> phisher1: oooooh!
[10:45] <phisher1> 172.16.100.1 = 12 chars
[10:45] <pixil> Well that makes sense

[12:39] <Nightwork> lenis, read the topic and just ask.
[12:39] <Nightwork> amit555, no.
[12:39] <amit555> or there's a need for a 3rd party app
[12:39] <Nightwork> amit555, it's a limitation of NTFS.

[12:40] <amit555> yeah

[12:42] <lenis> what codec i need:)
[12:42] <fartman> or just zip them, copy the zip to the new location and unzip
[12:42] <Nightwork> lenis, your camera's manual should say how it encodes video.
[12:42] <fartman> it might work
[12:42] <Nightwork> lenis, or perhaps there is software that came with it?
[12:42] <lenis> no.. i dont have anything

[13:11] <paxilback> Can an operator message someone in #ocd (which requires an invitation) th
[13:11] <n909> that won't be possible, sorry.
[13:11] <phisher1> you can /knock #ocd
[13:12] <paxilback> thanks
[13:12] <paxilback> n909, and why not?
[13:13] <phisher1> you have to be invited to invite only channels
[13:13] <n909> paxilback, all the users in the channel are usermode +i (invisible)
[13:13] <paxilback> n909, if you have access to the channel, you can join it and talk to them
[13:13] <n909> i don't have any more access than you do.
[13:14] <paxilback> the IRC operators can't access invite only channels?
[13:15] <paxilback> It would be kindof weird if not even IRC operators could access them to s
[13:15] <paxilback> to prevent abuse.
[13:15] <deww> paxilback: only, like you, if that oper was invited
[13:15] <paxilback> isn't that a risc for abuse on the network?
[13:16] <mega`> when you knock then all chan users get notified?
[13:16] <phisher1> channel ops do
[13:16] <deww> paxilback: opers aren't here to monitor channel actvities
[13:16] <paxilback> deww, Not to any extent?
[13:16] <paxilback> I thought you tried to maintain atleast some control
[13:16] <paxilback> that not ...let's say terrorist or illegal activites take place.
[13:17] * deww wonders which network paxilback came from.
[13:17] <paxilback> My LAN ;P
[13:17] <ial> illegal activities take place in non invite/keyed channels
[13:17] <paxilback> Oh well.
[13:18] <paxilback> I got a technical explanation for my reason to be here.
[13:18] <jackal^> paxilback, you might want to read this http://www.irchelp.org/irchelp/ircd/
[13:18] <paxilback> Thank you for that.
[13:18] <deww> paxilback: wouldn't you hate it if your landlord can sit in your apt/house to
[13:18] <paxilback> The rest is merely a philosopical conversation.
[13:18] <paxilback> if you don't mind it I can continue ;)
[13:18] <deww> paxilback: anyways. irc isn't the best place to ask for medical type advice
[13:19] <paxilback> deww, Thanks I know. I see my therapist every week and eat my meds. I am

[13:27] <nsfw> Tropic-La: Pro tools? ;)
[13:27] <pixil> Tropic-La: That's not a limit in the software, that's a limit in the codecs a
[13:28] <Tropic-La> not necessarily
[13:28] <pixil> flac, in my opinion, is the best 'bang' for your buck in terms of quality ver
[13:28] <pixil> But that's a highly debated topic.
[13:28] <Nightwork> Yay, lossless audio.
[13:28] <Tropic-La> it can always break it up into xxxMB or xxxMIN segments
[13:28] <pixil> Nightwork: Well. SHN is lossless too, but it's half the size of wav files. :
[13:28] <Tropic-La> i do want decent compression though, since it could potentially be any le
[13:29] <Nightwork> pixil, all of the lossless formats are around the same compression ratio.
[13:29] <Tropic-La> is there a simpler program than pro tools that anyone knows of
[13:29] <pixil> flac seems to do much better than shn, in my experience
[13:29] <Nightwork> pixil, I use WMA lossless, just because it's easy and requires no extra c
[13:29] <pixil> but, they're still much larger than mp3
[13:29] <Nightwork> No way to avoid that, you're not tossing out half the music like MP3 does
[13:29] <pixil> yeah
[13:30] <Nightwork> Get a great SACD, then rip it into MP3. bleh.
[13:31] <Tropic-La> i have a sound recorder that records 3-8 hours in 3 to 30mb
[13:31] <Tropic-La> are there any programs that will give me that sort of compression/
[13:31] <intx> A-2-3-9 beats 2-3-4-5 in badugi right?
[13:31] <Nightwork> That's a pretty low bitrate, heh.
[13:32] <Tropic-La> it sounds decent though, i don't know how it works so well
[13:33] <Nightwork> What recorder is it?
[13:33] <pixil> You prolly can't tell the difference. :-)

[14:13] <rhelic> FBERN: oh, you need the SP3 version
[14:14] <FBERN> I have WinXP w/ SP3 installation cd.
[14:14] <rhelic> I'd open up SP3 .EXE with 7Zip and retrieve hal.dll

[14:15] <FBERN> frood so what should i be doing?
[14:15] <frood> That depends on whether this is a fresh install or an upgrade
[14:16] <frood> I didn't know SP3 for XP was out
[14:16] <rhelic> it's not, it's still beta, hasn't even gone RC yet
[14:16] <DrgdHmstr> does it include anything i wouldn't already have by virtue of keeping on

[14:44] <Afoyled> what is the best format for a video file to be in...if its on an ipod/zune.
[14:44] <rhelic> Afoyled: eh, you can't have it both ways with iPod, zune is a diff story
[14:44] <rhelic> the iPod requires the video to be MP4, and it's VERY picky about the resolut
[14:45] <rhelic> only the Zune properly handles any video and any resolution
[14:45] <Afoyled> ok
[14:45] <Afoyled> hmm
[14:45] <rhelic> basically, you have to use Quicktime or a compatible encoder for the video t
[14:45] <Afoyled> i see different kinds of choices to rip dvds to
[14:45] <rhelic> but iPod quality is not TV quality, you won't like it
[14:45] <Afoyled> like mp4..or mp4 for tv..or mp4 for 16:9 devices
[14:45] <Afoyled> ok
[14:45] <Afoyled> how about for zune?
[14:46] <rhelic> zune, do what you want
[14:46] <Afoyled> what would you recommend
[14:46] <rhelic> it supports pretty much everything, I think even DiVX
[14:46] <Afoyled> hmm..i don't think i can get divx on there
[14:46] <Afoyled> at least it won't let me
[14:46] <Afoyled> i've been trying mp4 with zune..
[14:47] <Afoyled> but not sure that is the best choice
[14:47] <rhelic> ok no DiVX http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zune#Zune_software
[14:47] <Afoyled> i'm trying to find the best pic/sound format i guess for zune
[14:47] <rhelic> MP4 is a good format
[14:47] <rhelic> honestly, you could say DiVX is based upon MP4
[14:47] <Afoyled> i love divx..just wish my zune would accept it
[14:47] <Afoyled> would make life simplier
[14:48] <rhelic> mell the Xbox 360 supports DiVX, zune support is always possible, maybe
[14:48] <Afoyled> can you recommend any good programs for converting to mp4
[14:48] <Afoyled> i've tried so many
[14:48] <Afoyled> with little success
[14:48] <rhelic> no idea, I don't encode video
[14:48] <Afoyled> ok

[15:14] <frood> nah. It depends more on how fast your going

[16:38] <Sycho> ask away
[16:38] <themeth> ok
[16:38] <avrFreak2> possibly. ask and we'll see

[16:38] <themeth> I just bought a new box to use for games and what not, and I'd like to hook
[16:38] <avrFreak2> ronpaul?> ***ARGH***
[16:38] <themeth> my TV has component and HDMI in.
[16:38] <themeth> yup.
[16:38] <themeth> anyway.
[16:39] <themeth> the video card that came with this box has, I believe, DVI out.
[16:39] <themeth> the white dsub connectors are DVI correct?
[16:39] <themeth> is that the proper term?
[16:39] <themeth> the white dsub connector on my video card.
[16:39] <DrgdHmstr> dvi to hdmi adapter
[16:39] <themeth> now will that translate?
[16:39] <themeth> that will work ok?
[16:39] <Sycho> yeah dvi is high def
[16:39] <themeth> just a DVI to HDMI adapter?
[16:39] <themeth> ok.
[16:39] <Sycho> either use an hdmi lead and a dvd/hdmi adapter
[16:40] <Sycho> or a dvi > hdmi lead
[16:40] <DrgdHmstr> be aware though that it will only provide video, and your tv may also be
[16:40] <themeth> right.
[16:40] <themeth> that's another problem.
[16:40] <themeth> I'm either going to have to get a surround sound system to send the audio f
[16:40] <themeth> or, I'm going to have to get a DVI to component adapter.
[16:41] <themeth> I assume they make those?
[16:41] <DrgdHmstr> get a good receiver
[16:41] <themeth> DVI to component?
[16:41] <Sycho> dvi still only does video
[16:41] <themeth> if I use DVI to component, I can send the audio from the sound card to the
[16:41] <Sycho> if it was hdmi > hdmi then it would do video and audio
[16:42] <themeth> the other question is, how will that look?
[16:42] <DrgdHmstr> themeth: what res is your tv?
[16:42] <themeth> my tv does 1080i, 720p and 720i
[16:42] <themeth> it doesn't do 1080p
[16:42] <avrFreak2> themethL rich dude, eh?
[16:42] <Sycho> it should go at 1280 x 720 then
[16:42] <DrgdHmstr> most tvs won't do 1080 on component
[16:42] <themeth> my tv will do 1080 on component I'm prett ysure
[16:43] <themeth> I mean my cable box does HD and I have it hooked up component
[16:43] <DrgdHmstr> make sure you check, its usually in small print
[16:43] <themeth> and I don't think its doing 720
[16:43] <DrgdHmstr> in the manual
[16:43] <themeth> really.
[16:43] <Sycho> isnt 720 pretty much equal to 1080i?
[16:44] <avrFreak2> Sycho: you are joking,m right?
[16:44] <nsfw> woah

[16:45] <nsfw> oh lol
[16:47] <Sycho> nah not joking avrFreak2
[16:47] <Sycho> tis why loads of US networks use 720 instead of 1080i, coz its better for fas
[16:47] <Sycho> 1080i flickers
[16:48] <avrFreak2> doesn't make them "equivalent" Sycho...mere suggests that on SOME receive

[16:48] <nsfw> they are diff purposes

[18:24] <AntHr4XOs> stuck pixi
[18:24] <rhelic> yes, it was
[18:25] <rhelic> I didn't know they could get "stuck"
[18:25] <P5YCH0> wats up
[18:25] <AntHr4XOs> God thats wtf I'm not getting an LCD... w/ my luck = 4 yellows and 1 whit
[18:25] <rhelic> although having a lit pixel on a 100dpi isn't that bad, because they're so s
[18:25] <P5YCH0> sup wats going on with your monitor
[18:25] <rhelic> You'd have to know where it was, to see it
[18:25] <P5YCH0> i have 30 inch dell
[18:25] <P5YCH0> and i have 1 stuck pixel its insley hrd to sees
[18:26] <P5YCH0> and actully just got rma yesterday for it
[18:26] <rhelic> bought this 20" Samsung 3 weeks ago, and earlier today I noticed one of the
[18:26] <rhelic> not bright, just faint
[18:26] <P5YCH0> when it comes to stuck pixels it matters on quality as well
[18:26] <P5YCH0> shitty monitors will defintly get stuck pixels
[18:26] <AntHr4XOs> I'm got SUPER sensitive eyes.... I see the aperature-grill lines
[18:26] <rhelic> so basically is was a stuck sub pixel, which technically is like 300dpi in w
[18:26] <P5YCH0> try runing multi colors should revert ther pixel
[18:26] <AntHr4XOs> and they are TINY
[18:26] <P5YCH0> so do i
[18:26] <P5YCH0> i use to own 3 high end crts
[18:26] <rhelic> AntHr4XOs: on crappy monitors, so can I, but at 100dpi, it's very good
[18:26] <P5YCH0> before going to high end lcd
[18:27] <AntHr4XOs> But I Love Ap-grill it's so nice
[18:27] <P5YCH0> and i tell you the 4 megapixel resoultion its very hard to see in motion
[18:27] <P5YCH0> if u got a GIANT blot of stuck pixels then yea
[18:27] <P5YCH0> you will notice it
[18:27] <AntHr4XOs> uuck
[18:27] <P5YCH0> aoerture grill sucks for the wires
[18:27] <rhelic> the grill dissapears on this screen at 12" away, but I used this crappy 17"
[18:27] <AntHr4XOs> I've got bad hardware luck
[18:27] <P5YCH0> but it was good for its time
[18:27] <P5YCH0> >=| ewll then never upgrade
[18:27] <AntHr4XOs> I'm on an old viewsonic
[18:27] <P5YCH0> what can be said
[18:27] <AntHr4XOs> Drafting monitor
[18:27] <AntHr4XOs> I love this thing
[18:27] <AntHr4XOs> It's amazingly clear
[18:27] <P5YCH0> i use to have the diamondtron 2070sb
[18:27] <rhelic> I use to love tho Sony trinitron monitors, I would slap the sides sometimes
[18:27] <AntHr4XOs> mmmm
[18:27] <P5YCH0> gf500 i believe
[18:28] <P5YCH0> and the widescreen
[18:28] <AntHr4XOs> Diama
[18:28] <P5YCH0> there the highest models period
[18:28] <rhelic> AntHr4XOs: home or work?
[18:28] <AntHr4XOs> home
[18:28] <P5YCH0> sold em all and i went to a 30 inch lcd it owned
[18:28] <AntHr4XOs> Work I use LCD
[18:28] <rhelic> a good LCD is worth the money
[18:28] <P5YCH0> exatly
[18:28] <rhelic> don't go buy the $199 24"
[18:28] <P5YCH0> i got no regrets going fomr high end crt to 1
[18:28] <AntHr4XOs> 1 iMac 24" and 1 Dell C2D
[18:28] <P5YCH0> i did notice that the color was a slightly not on par
[18:28] <P5YCH0> but i believe the new HC models with higher color gamut should equvalite it
[18:28] <AntHr4XOs> The Imacs are nice but the damn glare
[18:29] <AntHr4XOs> lol
[18:29] <P5YCH0> so u got no excuse get a LCD
[18:29] <P5YCH0> >=p
[18:29] <P5YCH0> and if u get stuck pixel dell ships the lcd beforehand
[18:29] <AntHr4XOs> LCDs just have too many potential flaws for me atm
[18:29] <AntHr4XOs> and the price
[18:29] <P5YCH0> well good technology costs money
[18:29] <rhelic> my biggest beef is the horrible return policies LCDs have, Samsung makes awe
[18:29] <P5YCH0> what can be said
[18:29] <P5YCH0> nah belive me its not true
[18:29] <AntHr4XOs> I can just order Dell parts through work and let work deal with it if I h
[18:29] <P5YCH0> you have to lie thats it
[18:30] <P5YCH0> dell ships the lcds beforehand
[18:30] <AntHr4XOs> rhelic= exactly
[18:30] <rhelic> P5YCH0: yea, I figure, by the time they get it back, it doesn't matter
[18:30] <rhelic> it costs more to ship it than it's worth it for them to try to get it back
[18:30] <P5YCH0> so when i called them up i told em i had some stuck pixels and they said the
[18:30] <AntHr4XOs> 14!!!?!
[18:30] <P5YCH0> so they didnt verify nothing
[18:30] <P5YCH0> not really
[18:30] <P5YCH0> like hmm ground shipping is
[18:30] <P5YCH0> 40 bucks id say
[18:30] <rhelic> AntHr4XOs: I don't recall the exact number, but it's really high
[18:30] <P5YCH0> but hey thats the price u pay for a new monitor
[18:31] <AntHr4XOs> I always have to send back dead dell hardware once they ship new ones...
[18:31] <rhelic> I read one story where a guy had a dead line, and they refused to ship him a
[18:31] <P5YCH0> for me 40 bucks lower models offcourse less
[18:31] <AntHr4XOs> order at 8am... *knock knock* on the door 2pm next day
[18:31] <P5YCH0> dead line what u mean
[18:31] <P5YCH0> u mean to send it in
