!rp !vgp I have a testing server for a MUSH set up now, if anyone's interested. And I will need wizards if anyone is interested in that. !techponies

!techponies has anyone worked with WSUS scripting before?

I thought getting my MU* server running would be the hard part. Now that I've done that, the learning curve just got ugly. Looks like I know where my free time will be spent for the next . . . ever. !rp !vgp !techponies

"On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for all of my problems drops to zero." Server is up. :) !techponies !c

I feel like a foal. The whole time the problem was that my modem takes 60 seconds to reset, not 10. !techponies #derp !c

I accidentally my whole internet. ;_; Turns out I was wrong about switching the modem to bridge mode. Hope AT&T get it fixed soon. !techponies On the plus side, I am loving my new pair of shorts - hope they hold up well. !c And now, off for a comfort burger. !nomnoms

I think I'm one step closer to getting my server up. !techponies thank you for your help. Soon as I get home from the dentist and my workout, I shall see... *fingers crossed* !c

Trying to get NetBSD on an old PowerMac G3 I inherited from work. !techponies why do I do this to myself? 6_9

I am having a nightmarish time getting my home server set up. Time for a break - I'm going to bike down to Big Lots & look for pony #toys. !techponies

Here goes. I'm about to try to set up a server to run a MUD. Wish me luck. !techponies !vgp

Just wrote up a hack-ish tweak for the Status.Net User class to automatically put new registering users into a group based on its ID number. My PHP skills aren't the hottest, so if anypony would check it / improve it, that'ld be nice. It should be functional as is, though. http://retl.info/extra/pony/RDN/defaultgroupsnippet.zip (Zip contains snippet and example.) !notice !techponies http://is.gd/LUslGX

Hmm. Tried installing StatusNet Desktop in my linux VM. Boy, did it ever not work at all. Times like this, I wish I actually knew what I was doing. !techponies

@starshine O hai, I should have did the !techponies thing for that last dash...

Any !techponies ever put Linux on an old Mac blue-and-white G3? I looked into NetBSD, something about flashing the firmware, shelved the project for the time. Anyway, thinking maybe Puppy or another lightweight distro - any input? Thanks in advance!

Just testing to see if I can post from the links browser. !techponies

@ponygeist Why, thank you. :) I've still got a lot of learning to do, but I'm confident I can handle it. !techponies

@scribus 1000 cheers for you! Arch is speedy and wonderful. !techponies

All right! Arch on my netbook. Absolute victory. Now, to force myself to learn the CLI more. #whiteandnerdy !techponies

Well, I'm going to try to put Arch #Linux on my netbook. Wish me luck, !techponies.

!techponies @puzzlemint Double density disks were 720k (880k if you had an Amiga.) 1.44MB disks had an "HD" logo, and could be identified by their additional square hole opposite the write-protect switch. and I have piles of them.

@puzzlemint I remember bringing those to school full of emulators and roms for NES. Nothing says fun like doing comp work and playing Legend of Zelda at the same time !techponies !vgp

!techponies I remember when I got my first 1.4 MB 3 1/2" disk. That cherries was DOUBLE DENSITY, man. You could fit ten whole hypercard stacks on it and still have room to spare. On that day, I truly was a god among nerds.

Any other !techponies (or anyone) have issues with StatusNet on smartphones not picking up all the updates on the public stream? I've got a 9+ hour gap, and I'd posted from my computer during that time so I know the site was live.

@firefly It's al LG Ally, Verizon network. I'm pretty pleased with it, but it does have some quirks at times (mostly touchscreen lag) and it won't run all of the available apps (usually high-powered games), but that's mostly hardware. The OS is nice, I'd like to shoot for stronger hardware on my upgrade. Mostly, I chose this one for the physical keyboard. I have a tough time with virtual keyboards. You could probably ask other !techponies for more input.

@rotation ¯\(°_0)/¯ I honestly don't remember. I think I was just trying to get a grasp on how 3d transformations were done. And then looking at the source again, apparently I made the 3d thing in a different class. In physics class, I made a 2d ascii drawing engine thing, then rendered fractals for the rest of the school year. Didn't forget that. Good times. :3 http://youtu.be/-kyZW4bMQg0 !techponies

@rotation It's been so long since I've really coded anything that I don't remember any interesting storied off the top of my head. However, I do remember recently looking back and stuff and wondering "how the hell did I do that?" Example: apparently I coded a basic 3d engine with javascript. Using notepad and internet explorer. In my physics class. Then completely forgot about it. What the hell? !techponies

@sci !techponies I then read a more recent paper from 2002 that said it could be anywhere between 2 or 75. According to the paper, that means that Linux kernels have roughly 150,000 bugs, and Windows XP about 300,000. #misquotedinformationshouldnotbeusedasfactualevidence

@pride woah what? Just 16? Apparently everything I code is too condensed. I'm pretty sure I've gotten a density of two bugs per line in one function before. !techponies

@pride !techponies HA! Love it. I'm actually more a sys admin. I'm just in charge of dredging the logs for errors to ASSIST our dev's with bug triage.
