mercutio: mnathani: Someone could always buy them out anyway
OS X got ditched for powerpc users pretty quickly fwiw.
And people still buy Apple products. m0unds: i'd stop using computers if i was forced to use linux on a desktop
http://store.fourguysguns.com/products/102nd-chairborne-ranger-tee RandalSchwartz: thank goodness for freebsd, so we can use real unix and not a unix wannabe
I say this with all respect for my friend and fellow portlander Linus m0unds: haha
i love bsd, just not a fan of it on ze desktop
pc-bsd is getting there wrt making it sort of work in that capacity out of the box though sjackso: I feel like there will never be a good desktop experience sitting on top of x windows
</curmudgeon> m0unds: haha, i agree
they need to rethink it
i get the desire to preserve a framework compatible with tons of desktop envs, but it's inconsistent and sucks
and that's ultimately why i won't use linux on a desktop; tries way too hard to do too many things adequately and it makes me feel like it's not particularly good at any of them (as far as desktop use goes)

It's great to be back on something with a stable base, but the direction desktop environments are taking today is rather disappointing. m0unds: god, 5 hour energy tastes awful
it's like a mixture between carbonated anti-nausea medication and sugar free gum
gross brycec: Still better than Red Bull imo m0unds: i'm not a fan of any of it really
i like coffee
but this was like taking a shot of emetrol or something
yuck
it's like sticking to the inside of my mouth, hahaha ***: novae has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 245 seconds)

silly people m0unds: yup
i also found out if you kill certain folks w/the banshee they'll send whiny /tell msgs but i forgot to take a screenshot staticsafe: we were expecting rage from the TR regarding us farming their armor from a spot their infantry can't reach
but instead we got that lulz m0unds: hahaha
dammit, now i wanna play staticsafe: Eisa tech plant point is hard to hold
got swarmed from multiple directions by enemy push m0unds: yeah, it is
tech plant fights annoy me because it seems like 80% of people don't realize there are tubes to quickly get them into the building
rather than walking and getting mauled by tanks or aircraft staticsafe: yeah m0unds: ugh, such a boring day ***: notion has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer)

sga0 has joined #arpnetworks -: brycec sets out to rob m0unds's employer m0unds: knock yourself out
hahaha brycec: Would liven things up
Possibly give you something to do m0unds: yeah, absolutely
only if you broke my networking gear or cameras while robbing
cut a hole in the roof and run a firehose in it brycec: Figured someone would be coming for the footage...
But I could just go the sprinkler route m0unds: yeah, that'd implicate me specifically in doing something brycec: Your closets are water tight, right? m0unds: there are people who handle reviewing and showing video
sure aren't! brycec: So the sprinklers would be bad? :D m0unds: well shit, sprinklers wouldn't work
we use fm-200 everywhere
most you'd do is have water run under the door from the hall brycec: lol probably smart m0unds: hahahaha
i have some outdoor cameras up on the surveillance client in my office
it's like having a window brycec: That's so sad... m0unds: yeah, i agree
hahahah brycec: stupid damn blackberry.... m0unds: we have tiny windows along the outer perimeter of one side of the surveillance room itself, but most of them are too dirty to even see outside
blackberry? really? brycec: Yeah
unearthed the ol' blackberry m0unds: old one or one of the new qnx ones? brycec: old
Bold 9700 m0unds: i had an 8820 back in ze day brycec: I've had many...
Curve 8310 before this m0unds: the ui on the new ones is actually pretty nice brycec: before that, another 8xxx, and before that a 7xxx mnathani: whats the go to RSS reader people use these days? m0unds: the hub stuff is cool, typography is good brycec: mnathani: rss2email for me m0unds: umm, prismatic is sort of neat if that's still around -: m0unds doesn't really rss brycec: I use RSS for release announcements and webcomics m0unds: http://getprismatic.com/home brycec: Both of which are best when delivered to my inbox
m0unds: What was really fun about resurrecting the old thing was some of the root certs on it have expired. Broke all Google SSL :D m0unds: nice!
i tried reviving my 8820 last year, but the battery had ballooned up brycec: Same with my 8310s
But the Bold is still good
Last used it 2 years ago at Defcon m0unds: musta just been a shitty run of 8xxx series batteries brycec: Going to use it again this year. m0unds: haha, nice brycec: Damnit... This is why it fails to connect :( hostapd: ath0.2: STA 00:26:ff:7d:a2:7f IEEE 802.11: Station does not support mandatory HT PHY - reject association
But it was working yesterday m0unds: huh -: brycec endeavours to find out what require_ht=1 does mhoran: I believe that requires 40mhz (high throughput) even in busy environments.
Normally an AP would drop back to only one 20mhz channel. brycec: HT = high throughput? mhoran: Indeed. brycec: Ah, mystery #1 solved then.
Now to figure out which ddwrt setting equates to require_ht mhoran: Heh. brycec: I have a feeling I know too :/ m0unds: dd-wrt makes my head hurt mhoran: I run OpenWRT myself. mnathani: brycec: hmm, I just installed rss2email, but images are not getting embeddied in the emails / posts brycec: OpenWRT made my head hurt. ddwrt at least had a website that said "here's what to downloda"
Regardless, ddwrt gets the job done, so I'm happy mhoran: Ah, yeah. The OpenWRT guys are bad at that.
dd-wrt didn't run on my router.
The OpenWRT wiki is always edge, so if you try to configure something you need to run the snapshots or the docs are too new. brycec: mnathani: Did you set HTML_MAIL in your config? m0unds: dd-wrt did a horrid job of keeping their codebase for the "open" stuff vs "paid" stuff separate and some iptables rules and stuff made it into a whole series of builds
like, specific to one of their "enterprise" customers brycec: Hm, thought it might be that my BB only did .11b, but specs say b/g (and my wifi is set to ng-only) so should work. m0unds: when i asked about it, i got banned from their forums brycec: lol m0unds: but there was a whole iptables ruleset hardcoded into the build, so it was there even after you factory reset it
totally stupid/lame mhoran: Dumb dumb dumb. brycec: Well if I'm understanding require_ht and the "mandatory HT PHY" message, my BB is not willing to go G-only and therefore it's being kicked from the AP. How lame. m0unds: kick it in the dick mhoran: That's silly. brycec: Once I find the dick on this thing...
I have my answer
It was trying to connect to an N-only AP of mine mhoran: Ah. brycec: (I have two APs broadcasting the same networks, one was set to N-only, the other to G/N mixed) m0unds: you monster brycec: Yeah yeah m0unds: http://i.imgur.com/zAuxnTw.gif
argh, only ONE HOUR REMAINING. mnathani: brycec: works now after setting the HTML_MAIL config. Thanks brycec: np
