| [00:35] | <sgomes> | hey everyone, one question. I'll probably be buying a 30 GB Neuros next week, I'm just not sure whether to buy an HD unit or a combo. Is the combo worth the 70 (at americantechpushers) extra dollars? |
| [00:37] | <iswm> | Will you be doing lots of physical activity with it? (Running, working out, etc) |
| [00:38] | <sgomes> | not really, it'll be mostly for listening while sitting down |
| [00:38] | <iswm> | Then probably not. |
| [00:39] | <sgomes> | hmm, thanks for the tip |
| [02:11] | <SmrtJustin> | can't the firmware use that extra RAM (or w/e they call it) for cache? |
| [02:18] | <Yono> | i'm pretty sure it doe |
| [02:18] | <Yono> | s |
| [02:22] | <unknown_lamer> | dreamtheater.net OH MY GOD |
| [02:22] | <unknown_lamer> | $35 tickets! |
| [02:23] | <unknown_lamer> | l;jl;j |
| [02:23] | <unknown_lamer> | Megadeth, Dream Theater, Fear Factory, Dillinger Escape Plan, and Nevermore |
| [02:23] | <unknown_lamer> | + second stage bands |
| [02:23] | <unknown_lamer> | For $35! FUCK OZZFEST. |
| [02:28] | <iswm> | Dream Theater is really good |
| [02:40] | <noiz> | is there a way to get the audio from the recorder to work in linux? |
| [02:56] | <mbishop> | AmericanTechpush: Any idea about the status of orders right now? I still haven't gotten a shipping confirmation |
| [02:58] | <noiz> | i didnt get a confirmation either, but i know that it has shipped |
| [03:27] | <mbishop> | noiz: how do you know? |
| [03:28] | <noiz> | i talked to Joe about it and email sent me an email yesterday saying my backpacks would ship today |
| [03:29] | <noiz> | *and support sent me an email |
| [03:34] | <noiz> | hey Yono |
| [03:35] | <Yono> | hey noiz |
| [03:35] | <noiz> | do you know if the current format that the recorder records in can be played on linux, both audio and video? |
| [03:35] | <Yono> | not natively |
| [03:35] | <unknown_lamer> | Hrm> |
| [03:35] | <Yono> | through conversion probably |
| [03:35] | * unknown_lamer played audio and video from the recorder before | |
| [03:35] | <unknown_lamer> | with mplayer |
| [03:36] | <unknown_lamer> | I forgot the format |
| [03:36] | <Yono> | fine, listen to lamer then |
| [03:36] | <noiz> | cuz i cant get audio to work |
| [03:36] | * Yono desperately need to upgrade to FC3 when he gets a chance | |
| [03:36] | <unknown_lamer> | Yono: Use Debian :-) |
| [03:36] | <unknown_lamer> | apt-get update && apt-get upgrade |
| [03:36] | <unknown_lamer> | donme. |
| [03:37] | <Yono> | haha, is debian any good with wireless? |
| [03:37] | <noiz> | yeah, Debian much better than FC3 |
| [03:37] | <Yono> | I'm trying to install it on my laptop and it won't accept the unofficial drivers (haha, had to build em from scratch using a guide) |
| [03:37] | <noiz> | unknown_lamer: so you dont know what package i would need to get to have the audio work? |
| [03:38] | <Yono> | G.7xx I think |
| [03:38] | <unknown_lamer> | I build mplayer / ffmpeg myself |
| [03:38] | <Yono> | I forgot what the xs were |
| [03:38] | <unknown_lamer> | With standard build options |
| [03:40] | <Yono> | || test |
| [03:40] | <Yono> | || ok, this can't get on the logs, but you can update firmware without a charger |
| [03:41] | <Yono> | || when it says to plug in power, just hold down hisi |
| [03:42] | <noiz> | || crazy |
| [03:42] | <Yono> | unkown_lamer's got mad linux skillz :) |
| [03:43] | <noiz> | maybe i'll try building my own versions, but i'll probably not get around to it until some other audio codec is implemented so it wont even matter |
| [03:48] | <unknown_lamer> | Heh |
| [03:48] | <unknown_lamer> | I met a girl |
| [03:48] | <unknown_lamer> | and she has a GNU/Linux box |
| [03:48] | <unknown_lamer> | and she's metal |
| [03:48] | <unknown_lamer> | It's awesome |
| [03:48] | <Yono> | lol |
| [03:48] | <unknown_lamer> | She's a chem eng major |
| [03:49] | <unknown_lamer> | It is my plan now to bone her. |
| [03:49] | <noiz> | later everyone |
| [03:53] | <DeepB> | anyone care to try to sorune podcast support? |
| [03:53] | <unknown_lamer> | Damnit, you beat me to the $1000 |
| [03:53] | * unknown_lamer wonders what a podcast is | |
| [03:54] | <DeepB> | to me, it's kinda a stupid thing |
| [03:54] | <unknown_lamer> | But for a $1000 who cares, right? |
| [03:54] | <DeepB> | like a personalizad radio over the internet using XML feeds |
| [03:54] | <unknown_lamer> | Oh |
| [03:54] | <unknown_lamer> | XML is evil |
| [03:55] | <Yono> | I'd rather have the grand spent towards wireless file transfer ;) |
| [03:55] | <unknown_lamer> | Hah |
| [03:55] | <Yono> | may also be useless, but at least it comes with bragging rights :) |
| [03:55] | <unknown_lamer> | That's way more than a grand of work :-) |
| [03:55] | <unknown_lamer> | www.petitiononline.com |
| [03:56] | <DeepB> | yeah, sure, Joe should have been put the bounty onto a non-useless thing |
| [03:56] | * unknown_lamer should learn Perl | |
| [03:57] | <DeepB> | i mean, i had a working beta after a very few hours of work |
| [03:57] | <DeepB> | and without a working neuros |
| [03:57] | <unknown_lamer> | ha ha |
| [03:58] | <Yono> | DeepB: what would you have had the bounty be? |
| [03:58] | <DeepB> | excuse moi? |
| [03:58] | <Yono> | what would you have had the bounty for achieving instead of podcast support? |
| [03:59] | <Yono> | you know the source better than the rest of us, you know what needs to be done |
| [03:59] | <DeepB> | dunno, maybe FLAC, or MPC or else |
| [03:59] | <Yono> | unknown_lamer: docs.rinet.ru |
| [03:59] | <DeepB> | something really useful |
| [03:59] | <unknown_lamer> | Hah |
| [03:59] | <Yono> | Starkey's got FLAC under control |
| [03:59] | <unknown_lamer> | Yono: I as just going to get the O'Reilly book |
| [03:59] | <DeepB> | s/really/actually/ |
| [03:59] | <Yono> | TI's stopping the MPC |
| [04:00] | <unknown_lamer> | How ? |
| [04:00] | <Yono> | and Steve something or other is working on replaygain |
| [04:00] | <Yono> | they won't give NA rights to the MPEG code |
| [04:00] | <unknown_lamer> | rpgain better have a gaim + limiter |
| [04:00] | <unknown_lamer> | So? |
| [04:00] | <unknown_lamer> | What does the mpeg code have to do with mpc? |
| [04:01] | <Yono> | mpc is based on the mpeg2 code |
| [04:01] | <unknown_lamer> | Oh |
| [04:01] | <unknown_lamer> | mpc = musepack?> |
| [04:01] | <Yono> | writing it from scratch would be a big waste of time |
| [04:01] | <Yono> | yep |
| [04:02] | <Yono> | on the other hand, wavpack would only take about a hundred lines of code according to Starkey ;) |
| [04:02] | <DeepB> | yeah, wavpack source is a quite clean piece of work, pretty portable |
| [04:02] | <Yono> | so DeepB, how many hours of work do you think you got left until you get to have a nice dinner? ;) |
| [04:03] | <DeepB> | try it |
| [04:03] | <DeepB> | i think it's already done |
| [04:03] | <Yono> | haha, are you serious? |
| [04:03] | <Yono> | you realize it has to be able to upload podcasts recorded on the mic, right? |
| [04:04] | <DeepB> | maybe there are some things to add/polish, like caching and error handling, and maybe thread spawning |
| [04:04] | <DeepB> | but the podcast handling is done |
| [04:05] | <DeepB> | the uploading stuff it's pretty site dependant |
| [04:06] | <DeepB> | there are things like authentication, form field names, etc.. which differs on every case |
| [04:06] | <Yono> | right, right |
| [04:06] | <Yono> | so you did it all without any firmware work, awesome |
| [04:07] | <DeepB> | actually, a bit of rework on the firmware should be ideal, i.e, to treat mic recordings as podcasts natively |
| [04:08] | <Yono> | right, but thats still great |
| [04:08] | <Yono> | I'm gonna get some sleep, ttyl |
| [04:09] | <Yono> | later u_l |
| [23:10] | <noiz> | DeepB,derobert: hey, either of you use redhat/fedora or slackware and would be willing to test something for me? |
| [23:11] | <DeepB> | noiz: debian/ubuntu here, sorry |
| [23:14] | <noiz> | is ubuntu much better than debian? |
| [23:15] | <DeepB> | quite |
| [23:16] | <DeepB> | it's has newer packages, while retaining most of DFSG |
| [23:17] | <DeepB> | it's also much more user friendly |
| [23:17] | <noiz> | cool |
| [23:18] | <noiz> | do you know if ubuntu has a kernel that has ndiswrapper already built? |
| [23:19] | <DeepB> | i don't think so |
| [23:19] | <DeepB> | but building a custom kernel it's pretty easy |
| [23:20] | <noiz> | yeah, but im pretty lazy, and right now the comp only has shell support |
| [23:20] | <noiz> | i cant figure out why it wont use gnome |
| [23:58] | <noiz> | DeepB: if i build the kernel on my debian box and make the .deb file, it should be able to install on my ubuntu box, right? |
| [23:59] | <DeepB> | yep, it should |
