nathanyor try gsc (http://gitorious.org/gsc) for boostrapping (since we have tons of externals) #shamelessplug17:00

nkinkadeIt's easy enough to blast the other account and recreate.19:26
paroneayeankinkade: It would be nice for consistency, but it doesn't matter too much :)19:27
paroneayeaso, sure19:28
nkinkadeparoneayea: I'll change it now.  I'm nkinkade@, and that was mostly for consistency as well.  And nathany had already taken nathan@.19:28
nathanybwahaha! i am nathan #1! bwahahaha!19:28
nkinkadeI didn't get to CC soon enough to be <firstname>@, which means my cool factor is less.19:28
paroneayeahm19:29
nathanylol19:29
paroneayeaI guess it decreases my cool factor to use cwebber19:29
nathanymike was here before me and he's ml19:29
nkinkadeYeah, you could be cw@.19:29
nathanythere is no consistency here19:29
paroneayeabut I'll use cwebber anyway :)19:29

nathanyi like the software but it's a little clunky19:59
Bovinitythe new mytouch comes out soon19:59
nathanyalthough if you used the 1973, i guess it'd look like modern to you ;)19:59
JED3what do you guys think about the htc hero?19:59
paroneayeanathany: heh, yeah... the reason I never use the 1973 is because I had to keep updating alsa states and stuff.  Everything packaged in debian is for the freerunner :(19:59
akozakJED3: do want20:00
paroneayeaI'm really not that interested in android though.  I really actually liked the freesmartphone.org framework20:00
paulproteusWow, I really should hang out with paroneayea.20:00
Bovinityapparently while the hero has flash support, it sucks in actual use. which isn't surprising given flash.20:00
paroneayeafrom like, a developer's point of view.  At least it used common free software components20:00
paulproteusAnyway, tty y'all in a bit.20:00
akozakpaulproteus: I want to hear about your work!20:00
paroneayeapaulproteus: later20:00
akozakbut later20:00
akozak(i mean but later as in but goodbye)20:01
paroneayeaI appreciate that android is (mostly) free software, but it agitates me that all these systems keep inventing their own universes of components20:01

akozaknice20:10
mecredisBovinity: yes, its getting ridiculous20:10
akozakmecredis: how do you rate google voice so far?20:12
mecredisits got some issues20:12
mecredisnamely not remembering to use my custom outgoing Vmail20:12
mecredisso it just is generic "Google Voice" lady20:13
akozakweird20:13
mecredisyeah, and its been sending me duplicate voicemail transcriptions20:13
mecrediswhich is a little annoying20:13
akozakdo you get a lot of voicemail? because I don't, but that seems like one of the main features.20:14
mecredisno I don't20:15
mecredisand that is definitely the best part20:15
mecredisthe annoying thing about using as your main vmail is that you have to be constantly in DnD mode in GV20:15
mecrediswhich means it never routes calls through your number to your cell20:15
mecredisjust straight to voicemail if they call your GV #20:15
akozakhmm yea, that's a tough issue to solve though since it doesn't seem trivial to have the phone redirect back to gv for vmail20:17
akozakunless you're using a gv app or something20:17
mecredisriight20:17
mecredisbecause it rquires convincing the provider20:17
mecredisI tried setting that up but you get into this weird circular forwarding problem20:17
akozakitd be awesome to send people calling me into an endless loop20:18

paulproteusakozak, Yay! (-:20:47
paulproteusHey Bovinity, I have an OpenEd design-related question for you.20:47
paulproteusIn the top of view-source:http://opened.creativecommons.org/Find_OER  we do:         <script type="text/javascript" src="/skins/ahab/js_css.js"></script>20:48
paulproteusHere's the reasoning: Sometimes you want elements to be invisible if the user has JS.20:48
paulproteusYou want them to be invisible at page load time to avoid flicker.20:48
paulproteusSo I gave them a class, "invisible_if_js", and view-source:http://opened.creativecommons.org/skins/ahab/js_css.js creates a CSS style for that class.20:49
paulproteusI came up with this hack myself, but is there some other standard way to do that?20:49
akozakpaulproteus: you did that?  did you do beforeload.js too?20:49
paulproteusbeforeload.js iirc is part of the White Whale design.20:50
akozakok20:51

nkinkadeI'm able to change your passwd and login with the new password, but I'm also getting the 503 error.22:11

akozakWe're just talking about it in our meeting.23:40
nkinkadeakozak: I suppose that's up to you and Arhash, right?23:40
nkinkadeYou've got write access to the git repository for the theme and also a login on a7.23:40
akozakWell, I was mostly wondering about if you thought it would cause load issues.23:40
nkinkadeakozak: Is it known to load a machine heavily?23:42
nkinkadeI doubt it would be an issue.23:42
akozaknkinkade: Ok cool, I might test it out then.23:43

nkinkadeI doubt we'd ever be serving up thousands of videos a minute, so load shouldn't be an issue.23:44
