<init2null> Greetings!
> Sitting here listening to Los Lonley Boys before the show..  Good stuff.
<DaleMN> the techshow now offered with spanish dubbing
> Too bad the RIAA are such peckers, I'd play some for ya all..
> Yeah, I want the announcer that does Premier Impacto (onthe spanish channel).. :-)
<DaleMN> lol, hey they have some hot women on the spanish channel
> Yeah, but have you ever noticed none of them are latino looking?  I mean blue eyes and blond hair???!
<DaleMN> i know it makes me wonder where they come from
<rjbs> There are plenty of blue-eyed blonde Spaniards.
<DaleMN> it's like models that didn't meet the a-cup 90 pound usa limits
> ha!

<DaleMN> so is the whole techshow crew fired up to put on a kick ass show?
<init2null> I'm just having oodles of fun playing with Windows 2000 running on qemu, but, sadly, I just don't think Windows is ready for the desktop.
<init2null> Oh well, maybe when Longhorn comes out. :)
> Nope, I am the only TS guy here right now.  Dann ran out for beverages, Allan isn't coming today and both Dann and I are sick.. :-)
* rjbs is now running blackbox on his win32 workstation.
> I don't think windows has *ever* been ready for the desktop.  Shoot, I have to reboot windows more often that I used to reboot my Commodore 64, and at least *that* booted quick.
<init2null> I'm so sad that I don't have a Windows workstation, but I need both computers to do real work.
<DaleMN> after taking it up the P-Shoot for how long from microsoft do people really want to buy a product named "LongHorn"?
<init2null> I predict it will be named Windows 2010.
<DaleMN> BTW no knocking th commodore 64 that was the computer that got me into computers, it was way better then my TI-85
> I started on a Vic-20  Commodores were great computers.
> I still have a bunch of them
<DaleMN> i remember when i had a vic-modem i would dial on a phone and plug it into the back when i heard a bbs start up on the other end at a whole 300 bps
<init2null> My first computer was a hand-me-down TRS-80, but I trashed all my floppies by forgetting to remove them when I turned it off.

> technical dificulties..
<dann> first time in a few weeks too
<linuxric> no problemo
<DaleMN> btw linc i agree powers gold whiskey is good stuff
> Yeah man!  Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
<dann> I guess the occassional reboot on 6 year old hardware that has been through the wringer is not that bad.
<rjbs> powers is ok.
<rjbs> rare breed is The Best.
> Especially since it's been running our show over a year  on just the cdrom drive..
<Patrick> that's why there's no stream
<Patrick> linc, I hear Ipodder buddy calling into the screen savers
<Patrick> Dave Bishoff
<Patrick> he'd tried talkng about Ipodding but they were goffing around and never talked about it
<dann> holy moly, taking it's time

<Andrew> linc, play the new music as an close, so everyone can hear it.
<DaleMN> i second that
<michele> linc, char wants to know if you took the envelope to give to dan
<Patrick> about  friggen time!
<Patrick> damn Europeans taking 3 month vacations :)
<Patrick> DEEB-IAN
<DaleMN> jon jacob jingleheimer schmidt
<Patrick> Brits love to repeat that Americans are fat and stupid
<DaleMN> americans love to talk about british teeth
<Patrick> I  hate it when these audio blogs talk about politics
<Patrick> everyone has an opinion though
<init2null> BTW, The Linux Daily will be podcasting when it resumes.
<Patrick> Dice?
<Patrick> you gotta be kidding
<Patrick> don't hold your breath
<Patrick> I couldn't stand the mellow photo blog guy
<Patrick> I tuned him out right after he recited the poem about why he shouldn't have a gun in his house
<Patrick> BTW, I agree he shouldn't have a gun :)
<DaleMN> heh, some people don't need one thats for sure
<Patrick> have listen to that guy?
<Patrick> he sounds like Bob Ross, really meeeellooow
<DaleMN> no never heard of him
<Patrick> Bob Ross, he's dead now but he used to have a painting show on PBS
<DaleMN> the happy trees guy?
<Patrick> white guy with an afro and goatee
<Patrick> that's him
<dann> goatse?
<DaleMN> i liked the guy who panted the happy trees, i wish i could make a good painting in 30 minutes
<Patrick> I used to watch him in my  heavy drinking days
<LinkDJ> and if you tell anyone that that bush is there...
<Patrick> he was good to watch with a hangover
*** macslak (~chatzilla@dsl092-238-179.phl1.dsl.speakeasy.net) has joined channel #techshow
<DaleMN> i wish there was a candidate named Shaver :) shaver vs. Bush
<DaleMN> i think linc is gonna change to linspire
<rjbs> well, with John and George, we get the Battle of English Kings
<macslak> c'mon baby run Linspire !
<rjbs> but we had that with Al and George, I suppose.
<rjbs> Gore was Albert, right?
<Andrew> everyone needs gentoo.
<rjbs> OPTIMIZED FOR SPOILERS
<DaleMN> the bad thing about american politics is people don't vote for the best candidate they vote for the lesser of 2 evils
<DaleMN> i want linspire so i can pay for everything i want to add to it that way i can get the windows experience while running linux
<macslak> you mean the 4 out of 10 people who _actually_ vote...
<Patrick> gentoo if you have a really fast processor and lots of free time :(
<DaleMN> 'bout it voting is like having someone standing in front of you asking whether you want a kick to the left nut or right both choices suck
<macslak> right on, dalemn...
*** Signoff: LinkDJ (Ping timeout: 244 seconds)
<DaleMN> and your trying to decide which would be less painful, it's sad really then the world hates us and thinks these are the people we really want in
<Andrew> no if you have a slow processor you use emerge to get bins, so it doesn't take 5 days.
<Andrew> i installed gnome in 5 mins with gentoo using bins.
<dann> kind of defeats the point of Gentoo , doesn't it?
<Patrick> then you might as well use Slack or Debian
<Andrew> ya but if you still want dev stuff without going through CVS hell you have emerge.
<Andrew> im runing all of the enlightenment CVS stuff, i just emerge it like any other package. just as ez as apt-get.
<DaleMN> http://www.spywareinfo.com/newsletter/archives/1004/3.php
<DaleMN> bill gates own computers at home are infected with spyware lol
<macslak> yeah, that's priceless...
<Patrick> I hosted an installfest
<DaleMN> that ranks right up with his blue screen presentation
<Patrick> they sell crap at those shows
<Patrick> you can find some decent porn there :)
<dann> that is true.  Cheap too, like 3 for 15 bucks or $7.99 a piece.
<DaleMN> watching porn is like watching sports it's fun and entertaining but i'd rather be participating
<Patrick> Market Pro show is where I heard your buddy from LFK bash linux
<Patrick> and the linux zealots
<Patrick> 4 years ago
*** bws (~brian@207-172-235-84.c3-0.eas-ubr6.atw-eas.pa.cable.rcn.com) has joined channel #techshow
<Patrick> time to change the subject
<michele> Orgazmo
<macslak> what would it cost to have a "linux installfest" booth at the Comp Show ?
<Patrick> too much
<Patrick> how about the Sopornos
* DaleMN once rented a pay for view thinking it was pulp fiction and it ended up being pulp friction imagine my surprise
<bws> that's funny lol
<bws> yeah! Go Sox!!!
<bws> 8-1
<Patrick> baseball, wake me up when the seasons over
<DaleMN> cool, i was bummed to see the twins lose games they should have won, even if i'm not a big baseball fan
<Patrick> I'd rather watch grass grow
<bws> oh my no
<bws> this is a great ALCS
<bws> prolly the best ever
<Patrick> snooore
<macslak> damn, JDamon goes dry for six games then comes on fire, Boston 8, NYY 1, Damon HR (2), 3 for 3 - will the 'ghost' finally RIP ?
<bws> if you like baseball it doesn't get any better than this
<bws> especially with the down 3-0 tagline
<bws> coupled with the Curse of the Bambino....
* bws gets a beer
<macslak> will the Sox 'reverse the curse' ? we'll know in 2 hrs, no 3 hrs, no 4 hrs...lol...
<Patrick> the end of the world
<linuxric> the game that never ends
