00:22 katsmeow-afk define "being" ,, if you exist, are you "being" ?
00:22 rue_house I meant being as in thing LIKER containing carbon and having skin
00:23 rue_house I'd rather not tell you the meaning of life, its rather depressing :)
00:23 rue_house or did I already
00:24 katsmeow-afk "LIKER" ?
00:24 rue_house I'd rather spend my tine isolating the magic of creation and excersizing it
00:24 rue_house LIKE
00:24 rue_house my keyboard is giving me grief
00:25 rue_house I have to type everything twice and even then half of it dosn't come out right
00:25 katsmeow-afk so the meaning of life is a cow existing and doing it's business in the pasture?
00:25 rue_house keys on this keyboard are randomly sticking
00:25 rue_house thats a fine similification
00:26 rue_house oh darn, its passed bedtime
00:26 katsmeow-afk for what/who is it the meaning of life?
00:27 rue_house there is a definition that fits all
00:27 rue_house even some of the smaller components of it are quite rofound
00:28 tsmeow-afk ould lik t ear aou

00:30 rue_house embrace it, stay up
00:30 rue_house do something either productive or satisfying
00:30 katsmeow-afk i cannot do things that need making noise at nite,, or that need sunshine
00:30 rue_house my arms barely move and my eyes are closing, which makes it hard to do much f anyting

10:26 katsmeow-afk only his remote bnc is here
10:26 gushh_phone what happened
10:27 katsmeow-afk something about other humans making more money than him, not having money to buy basic stuff, etc
10:27 katsmeow-afk i dunno how that relates to irc, which for him is free
10:28 gushh_phone but he had free wifi
10:28 katsmeow-afk he was quite angry about the whole thing
10:28 katsmeow-afk did you stop reading before seeing isaid : , which for him is free
10:28 gushh_phone wasnt he starting a company
10:29 katsmeow-afk he was considering starting a new company
10:30 gushh_phone im on an old phone not even with 3g
10:30 gushh_phone be patient
10:30 gushh_phone some dipshit took the phone lines with his truck
10:33 gushh_phone and the ap i hacked into is too far away even after increasing the output power still cant get a stable connection
10:33 tsmeow-afk patiently points out the line "[10:16] <katsmeow-afk> i dunno how that relates to irc, which for him is free" was sent as all one
10:33 theBear you tried forcing 1mbps and lowering frag and rts thresholds etc ?
10:34 gushh_phone who needs a truck in a city anyway
10:34 theBear actually, sounds kinda like classic symptoms of crazy... imagined persecution/discrimination etc
10:34 gushh_phone huh

10:40 gushh3 bleh
10:41 theBear hmm, it worked ?
10:42 theBear ooh no, silly phone ip methinks
10:42 gushh3 what did thebear suggest? got disconnected

10:43 theBear you tried forcing 1mbps and lowering frag and rts thresholds etc ?
10:43 theBear you did see that methinks
10:45 gushh3 i shall try now!
10:47 gushh3 not better at all :(
10:58 theBear bummer, that IS a fringe connection then.... often i find that's enough to make all the difference
11:32 Modeuse hello
11:32 katsmeow-afk salutations
11:32 theBear greetings
19:04 katsmeow-afk http://dvice.com/uploads/10%20beesWeb.jpg
21:28 theBear hmm, is that a real bee or a artists impression of one ?
22:30 katsmeow-afk artist's impression
22:30 theBear mmm, bummer, still cool tho
22:31 katsmeow-afk but darpa did have a plane to make robot bees
22:31 katsmeow-afk stop talking about that
22:31 katsmeow-afk how id that do that
22:31 tsmeow-afk looks ar
22:31 tsmeow-afk hides from the b
22:32 eBear looks ar
22:32 theBear what the ? kats just disamapeared !
22:34 tsmeow-afk rolls donuts from under the couch to the bear's ankles to let him know she is still
22:34 eBear giggles while eating on mystery do
22:35 theBear i got lent a little wall-e toy yesterday, he's so cute and awesome !
22:35 theBear he can dance and talk and his eyes flash !
22:35 katsmeow-afk radio-ized rc ?
22:35 theBear nah, no radio
22:35 theBear plus he's missing a leg/track, so he wouldn't go far anyway
22:35 katsmeow-afk "not yet", you mean
22:36 theBear heh, it's only borrowed, some kid that i narrowly avoided being my own loves it... i can't mess with it
22:36 theBear tho tbh, sometimes i kinda wish i hadn't avoided it, but that's a whole 'nother story
22:36 katsmeow-afk ah, he'd luv it if you added it tot he lan
22:37 theBear and another whole story, i kinda suspect that one day we might start living as if he was my own, but like i say, whole 'nother story
22:37 katsmeow-afk waving it's arms around and yelling "danger, will robinson" may be olde fashioned, but wall-e isn't yet
22:37 theBear it's true
22:38 orlok i never thought i'd want a kid until i found out i was getting one
22:38 orlok and she's awesome
22:38 orlok http://182.160.128.150/Amelia.jpg
22:39 theBear hehe, pretty little girl
22:39 theBear this kid is kinda cool, but tbh, it's mum that i really wanna live with again
22:39 katsmeow-afk "Amelia, dandilion leaves are candy from the elves to the dragons"
22:39 tsmeow-afk hopes the bear gets his wi
22:41 Tom_itx orlok, she's got your number
22:42 theBear heh, i'm old and jaded now, my wishes would be nice, but you know, i stopped worrying too much years ago
22:43 Tom_itx you growing tired now?
22:44 theBear of life ? yeah, but at least i still enjoy drinking and smoking
22:44 tsmeow-afk toasts
22:44 Tom_itx it's gettin a big crouded for me
22:44 theBear cheers katears :)
22:45 tsmeow-afk looks qizzically at
22:45 eBear looks good, err, at
22:45 theBear take that !
22:46 Tom_itx not here.. the world in general
22:46 Tom_itx kat^^
22:48 katsmeow-afk hmm?
22:49 tsmeow-afk is pondering how to cram 32 hds into a 3U 19" rack s
22:50 katsmeow-afk mind you i will not be pondering that much longer,, i am absolutely going to get some sleep at a reasonable our tonite
22:51 katsmeow-afk if i make the case as wide as possible, 17" outside, i have 16.875 incide to put 16 cards each holding two drives
22:51 katsmeow-afk or 1.0546875 per card
22:52 katsmeow-afk the drives are an inch
22:52 katsmeow-afk i'd haveto put them on .o32 FR4 to have a chance of them all fitting
22:52 theBear some kind of compactor perhaps ? :)
22:52 tsmeow-afk listens for comm
22:52 theBear work time.. cya all
22:52 katsmeow-afk awwwwwwwwwwwww
22:56 katsmeow-afk i was originally thinking 26 drives, since that's A-Z , but why stick in that mold? 2^5 is 32 ; 2^4 is 16 , but only 16 drives in a 17 wide box?
22:57 katsmeow-afk with 32, 2 per card, 16 cards, i can clump them in 4-wides for a x8 raid, and have 4 of those raids in the box
22:58 katsmeow-afk then we are talking serious thruput, as well as full backups
23:13 katsmeow-afk ...
23:27 katsmeow-afk k,gnites then
