up_the_irons: brycec: i've actually had a lot of success over the last year in delegating the hands on stuff (to toeshred), so i'm not at the data center nearly as much as i used to be. Trouble is, i'd have to find someone like that in us-east or EU, in order to expand in those regions. If I *could*, however, then a second location, even out of the US, would be much more possible
i wanted to tell erratic that too, but he's not here...
toeshred: Most of that success goes to up_the_irons for being such a fantastic leader.
up_the_irons: :)
brycec: lol, hooray
I'll pass it along if I see erratic again

mnathani: what makes a link sype click to call enabled?
is there a special tag or keyword I need to use?
RandalSchwartz: sype?
skype ?
mnathani: Skype
RandalSchwartz: on OSX?
or in general?
some operating systems allow registration of special prefixes
on OSX, I think it's "skype://150355521212"
mnathani: I have this click to call in the browser
RandalSchwartz: yes browser on what platform?
mnathani: Windows
RandalSchwartz: ... http://sevenspark.com/tutorials/skype-uri-link-wordpress-menu
that might help
ahh.. skype:username?call
but that may not work everywhere.
worked on my mac though
as in 'skype:echo123?call' to call "the skype lady"
mnathani: on windows, I think the skype:number goes to the metro app
rather than the desktop app
RandalSchwartz: I have no idea what "metro app" means
so I'll just hope you've solved your own problem
or can type google questions to distinguish those
I have never owned a computer that came installed with windows
mnathani: RandalSchwartz: what brand laptop do you purchase, that dose not have windows preinstalled?
RandalSchwartz: Apple
mnathani: What about the whose FLOSS movement
s/whose/whole
BryceBot: <mnathani> What about the whole FLOSS movement
mnathani: do you end up dual boot into FreeBSD or run VMs?
RandalSchwartz: I run lots of open source software on OSX
I run FreeBSD on my servers, not my laptop
I do have some VirtualBox VMs to mimic my client's servers for testing
mnathani: RandalSchwartz: roger
What about any instances on Amazon's infrastructure
RandalSchwartz: well - there is indeed freebsd AMIs but they have to run on a windows (pay a lot per hour) hardware
I just don't use those
I have 5 boxes here at arp
all booting off ZFS
one bare metal, four VPS
mnathani: cool
RandalSchwartz: do you know if Linus uses IRC at all?
RandalSchwartz: I suspect not
he rarely goes to conferences too
mnathani: my dad lives on Portland
I live in Toronto, Canada however
RandalSchwartz: I live near Portland (in the Portland metro area), and can't go to Toronto :)
mnathani: Do you still pilot aircrafts these days?
RandalSchwartz: My last PIC was in 1994, about a week before the whole Intel thing went down
