06:37:49 <sbp> alright, who's Graeme Green?
06:37:52 <phenny> sbp: 02:07Z <patbam> tell sbp thanks for that link, very interesting
06:37:55 <sbp> come on, stand up and admit it
06:38:12 <thelsdj> .g "Graeme Green"
06:38:13 <phenny> "Graeme Green": sorry, no results were found.
06:39:13 <sbp> thelsdj!
06:39:25 <thelsdj> you're here early
06:40:36 <sbp> CORRECT
06:40:44 <sbp> I went to bed early, is perhaps most basic reason
06:41:14 <thelsdj> i don't go to bed early often enough for that to actually cause me to be functional any earlier than normal
06:41:25 <thelsdj> if i go to bed too early i end up being up most of the night
06:41:55 <bjoern_> HELLOZ 'P!
06:43:38 <sbp> ZELLO!
06:43:52 <sbp> thelsdj: oddly enough that normally happens to me
06:44:04 <sbp> except when I'm working really hard and I just sorta go "woo, tired"
06:44:29 <sbp> in fact, as you see from my distribution graph, I used to sleep pretty much circadianly
06:44:36 <thelsdj> yea, i guess every once in a while i go to bed extra early and do manage to sleep all the way through, then _some_ of those times i'm up earlier than normal
06:44:36 <sbp> so going to sleep an hour later each day
06:44:57 <thelsdj> yea i did that for a year or so back in like '99
06:45:10 <thelsdj> after dropping out of school and before starting to work
06:45:14 <sbp> hehe
06:45:25 <thelsdj> though i pushed it harder
06:45:31 <thelsdj> maybe 27 hour cycle
06:45:39 <sbp> well I found it was an average time
06:45:49 <sbp> coz if you stayed up till morning the sunlight would boost you way on
06:46:06 <thelsdj> also that was partly due to just sleeping a lot
06:46:15 <sbp> hehe

08:07:03 <sbp> if you had a bunny, what would you call it?
08:07:20 <sbp> I think "Luzz" would make a good bunny name
08:07:33 <sbp> or "Pennifred"
08:07:47 * xover would go for “Ragu” or, quite possibly, just “Lunch”…

08:11:08 <danja> from what I can gather in this book I'm reading

08:11:22 <sbp> see, crazy scary things should all be named in Germanic
08:11:35 <sbp> lovely sweet daisyish things should be named in Romance
08:11:50 <perigrin> I like that breakdown yeah ...

08:57:16 <sbp> In the medieval legend, Aristotle was the philosopher friend and tutor of Alexander the Great, and Phyllis, Alexander's favorite courtesan. Aristotle, in attempting to end the relationship, warned Alexander that women had often been the undoing of strong men. Phyllis, to gain revenge, aroused the passion of the philosopher and demanded, as proof of his love, that she be allowed to ride on his back as on a horse. The incident was witnessed by Alexander who learned
08:57:17 <sbp> thereby to distrust women, against whom even old philosophers were powerless. The story became an allegory of woman's domination of man. Phyllis has also been called Campaspe.

09:32:29 <darobin> interesting: "Brazil: 18 generally; 16 with parental consent; unlimited in case of pregnancy."
09:32:42 <sbp> heh
09:33:07 <darobin> California: no statutory minimum
09:33:16 <sbp> yeah, I noticed that

09:33:44 <sbp> ahahaha. missed that
09:34:00 <bjoern_> It's lists the Iraq under the asian countries.
09:34:01 <darobin> so you can marry at 14 without court approval if you've gotten married before :)
09:34:26 <sbp> eminently sensible
09:34:34 <sbp> such as
09:34:40 <darobin> ah, I didn't know they'd changed the French law
09:34:42 <perigrin> in utah it was an issue
09:34:49 <darobin> it used to be 15 with presidential consent

09:37:16 * perigrin would still not be legally married in darobins world
09:37:47 <darobin> perigrin: well, I'd be allowed to make exceptions for the people I know to be smart :)

09:37:59 <perigrin> The right honorable gentleman from Swhacksford?
09:38:12 <darobin> exactly
09:38:23 <darobin> and hey, I'm not legally married either!
09:38:31 <sbp> I think anyone should be allowed to marry at any age
09:38:33 <sbp> logic:
09:38:46 <sbp> * If someone wishes to marry, they have lost their marbles.
09:38:54 <sbp> * Therefore, society should give up on them.
09:38:59 <sbp> * Therefore, let them marry.

09:39:36 <perigrin> but by then it was too late
09:40:03 <darobin> you should marry again!
09:40:09 <darobin> and invite us this time
09:40:15 <sbp> I agree
09:40:19 <bjoern_> If divorces were cheaper, people would marry more.

10:38:38 <Arnia> I think I quite like them
10:38:55 <sbp> judging from their site, they're a bit samey though
10:39:11 <sbp> lyrics are boooOooring too
10:39:23 <sbp> they seem a bit more interesting musically than the Decemberists
10:39:28 <sbp> but way less lyrically interesting
10:39:28 <Arnia> *shrugs* you don't have to listen to them exclusively
10:39:42 <sbp> well
10:39:52 <sbp> I'm thinking: Colin Meloy writes for Beirut
10:39:54 <sbp> and they hire a new singer
10:39:57 <sbp> and become famous
10:40:19 <Arnia> It all goes into my big rotation
10:40:54 <sbp> I try to listen to a lot of input, but then have a small listening rotation which only the best of the input goes into
10:41:52 <sbp> I rather like finding out the contexts behind the best songs
10:42:04 <sbp> so I spend a lot of time being quite completionist on the best folk
10:42:12 <sbp> and finding out what's behind the music...
10:42:55 <Arnia> I like having everything of a particular artist, but of lots of artists. Then I play it all randomly and see what ideas spring forth
10:43:14 <sbp> juxtapositions between songs, like?
10:43:50 <sbp> one of my faves for transitions is at the end of Tell Me, Momma, Dylan plays a bit of harmonica and goes "it used to go like that, but now it goes like this". and then of course whichever song pops up after that can sometimes cause hilarity
10:43:56 <perigrin> sbp, "behind the music" like when A.L. Loyd trashed a hotel room during a drunken orgy?

14:54:28 <bjoern_> value of dollar already too small for google to handle?
14:55:31 <sbp> I don't think it's the OS's problem
14:55:42 <sbp> because as I say, Microsoft have lovely aerial photography of most of the country now
14:55:45 <laplink_> Apple's iPhone division thinking Euros and Dollars must be worth about the same, so a $399 iPhone in the US should cost about 399 EUR.
14:55:47 <sbp> really hi-res
14:56:25 <laplink_> Well, fair enough; provided they offer it in .no for 399 NOK.
14:56:34 <laplink_> .calc 399 NOK in USD
14:56:37 <phenny> 399 Norwegian kroner = 70.871577 U.S. dollars
14:56:38 <sbp> heh
14:57:01 <bjoern_> They need the euros to compensate the dollar inflation...
14:57:40 <pierpa> aren't usually USA prices quoted with no tax, and european prices with VAT already added?
14:58:04 <bjoern_> the latter is required for b2c
14:58:09 <Arnia> sbp: Google's imagery got better this year though... still not up to the level of MS's but... better
14:59:18 <Arnia> If you do quote a VAT-free price, you have to do it in fairly small print and make it clear that this is the price without VAT
14:59:46 <Arnia> Besides businesses can't buy at the VAT-free price, they can merely claim the VAT back on their next VAT return
15:00:21 <bjoern_> ... in britain?
15:00:26 <laplink_> .calc 553 - 399
15:00:28 <phenny> 553 - 399 = 154
15:00:41 <Arnia> bjoern_: well, that's the rules here
15:01:02 <Arnia> bjoern_: you're allowed to put the VAT-free price but only in b2b publications and only in small print
15:01:20 <bjoern_> I meant the last point
15:01:23 <laplink_> .calc (100 / 399) * 154
15:01:26 <Arnia> VAT accounting is hideously confusing
15:01:28 <pierpa> I think it's the same here in .it
15:01:30 <phenny> (100 / 399) * 154 = 38.5964912
15:01:38 <Arnia> A VAT registration is like a bank account running in reverse
15:01:42 <bjoern_> I don't remember that, at least here in germany, and, err, in the previous millenium.
15:01:54 <Arnia> You buy something and you can declare a negative VAT entry
15:02:04 <laplink_> So is the VAT in .de ~40% on electronics?
15:02:05 <Arnia> You sell something and you declare a positive VAT entry
15:02:44 <Arnia> You then, quarterly, send your returns (including any payments you may have to make if it is positive; if it is negative you get money back)
15:03:02 <bjoern_> Merkel wanted to raise it from 16 to 18, the social democrates didn't want to change it all all, so they agreed to raise it to 19% ...
15:03:25 <bjoern_> .calc 21 times 8 billion EUR
15:03:27 <phenny> 21 times 8 billion Euros = 233.01600 billion U.S. dollars
15:03:32 <Arnia> Generally though, if it is negative then either you're a business which sells non-chargable items (zero rate) or you're going bankrupt

16:20:33 <Arnia> I wonder if anyone has done a study of paranoia in online communities
16:21:34 <bjoern_> Of course THEY do.
16:22:27 <Arnia> :p I'm looking at Groklaw again and marvelling at the elaborate conspiracies many of the posters seem to take as being 'normal'
16:24:08 <Arnia> Of course, if these shadowy big business types were in fact capable of this level of conspiracy, they'd never get caught out. This seems to escape all the 'analysts' however
16:24:30 <Arnia> If I said any of this on site however I'd be called a shill, which makes me giggle
16:29:53 <bjoern_> You say this as if there is some flaw in their logic?

18:00:42 <glen_quagmire> is nameserver same as dns server?
18:02:59 <thelsdj> generally, yes
18:03:14 <thelsdj> dns is a type of nameserver
18:03:19 <glen_quagmire> for a dns entry, i can't make it point to some other domain right?
18:03:26 <thelsdj> you can
18:04:21 <deltab> depends what you mean by "entry" and "point"
18:05:06 <glen_quagmire> this is really complicated
18:05:33 <glen_quagmire> i want a.com to actually show a web app hosted at b.com
18:05:51 <glen_quagmire> main.a.com traffic should not go to b.com
18:06:10 <glen_quagmire> but i think it's weird
18:06:11 <deltab> will the webserver at b.com respond to http requests for a.com?
18:06:48 <glen_quagmire> i think so.
18:07:05 <glen_quagmire> i don't think this is simple meta redirect
18:07:16 <deltab> if so then b.com can have a copy of the address record used by b.com
18:07:21 <glen_quagmire> like, a.com/login/  -> b.com/login/
18:07:48 <deltab> no such thing as "meta redirect"
18:08:14 <glen_quagmire> right now, b.com/login/ is live.  my boss wants me to make a.com live
18:08:49 <glen_quagmire> i think that means a.com/login and b.com/login are the same web application hosted at some ip
18:08:59 <thelsdj> well the simplest is just point a.com to the same ip as b.com
18:09:01 <deltab> you can make the name a.com resolve to the ip address b.com is at
18:09:15 <thelsdj> if your application only responds to b.com you'll need to fix it to also respond to a.com
18:09:23 <glen_quagmire> but mail.a.com and other sub-domains should not go to that ip
18:09:40 <thelsdj> yea you can setup those separately
18:09:51 <glen_quagmire> so is this all in DNS entry?
18:09:51 <thelsdj> just don't use a wildcard
18:09:59 * glen_quagmire tries to narrow what to google for
18:10:09 <thelsdj> well, what do you use for dns?
18:10:44 <glen_quagmire> a.com is managed by godaddy name server.  b.com is managed by eapps nameserver. web app is also hosted at eapps
18:11:10 <thelsdj> ok so just use godaddy to set a.com to point to the ip
18:11:13 <glen_quagmire> I can make a.com to be managed by eapps nameserver, or change DNS entries on godaddy nameserver
18:11:24 <thelsdj> ya either way
18:11:40 <deltab> before you cahnge anything elsewhere though, try changing your hosts file
18:11:58 <thelsdj> right
18:12:26 <thelsdj> you on windows? if so its something like c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
18:12:27 <glen_quagmire> a.com is a parked domain i think. we are not using godaddy as hosting service.
18:12:56 <deltab> look up the ip address of the eapps http server, and put that in hosts with the name b.com
18:14:18 <glen_quagmire> when I visit a.com it shows Welcome to Windows Small Business Server 2003. I don't have that machine.
18:14:43 <deltab> you don't need to do anything to other machines to try this
18:14:48 *** cre8radix has quit ("tribalradix - cre8root - out for surf")
18:15:04 <glen_quagmire> oh
18:15:38 <deltab> this is purely changing where your machine connects to for a given name
18:16:33 <thelsdj> glen_quagmire: ya edit this file on _your_ computer then go to a.com and hopefully you should see your webapp, if not you'll have to configure eapps to point a.com to your web app
18:16:43 <glen_quagmire> oh found hosts file on my windows xp
18:17:03 <deltab> for example add  72.14.207.99 microsoft.com to hosts
18:17:22 <deltab> save the file then visit microsoft.com
18:17:55 <deltab> hmm, maybe not the best example
18:18:14 <deltab> 66.35.250.150 microsoft.com
18:19:04 <glen_quagmire> shoudl I restart the machine to make it effective?
18:19:08 *** cre8radix (n=cre8radi@p54BE717C.dip.t-dialin.net) has joined #swhack
18:19:14 <thelsdj> nope
18:19:19 <bjoern_> no, but restarting the browser might be necessary
18:19:21 <thelsdj> just save the file
18:19:22 <deltab> no need
18:19:29 <thelsdj> ya browser might cache
18:19:31 <glen_quagmire> oh it works now
18:20:24 <glen_quagmire> hrm. but won't the ip of web application change?
18:20:41 <deltab> maybe
18:21:06 <deltab> this works for those ip addresses because the webservers there ignore the domain name used to access them
18:21:37 <thelsdj> right, the point of this test is to see whether you'll need to configure eapps to point requests to a.com to your webapp
18:21:48 <thelsdj> or whether its already configured
18:22:12 <deltab> other servers might host multiple sites on one ip address, in which case they use the hostname to distinguish between them
18:22:22 <glen_quagmire> so, i now have to change DNS entry in godaddy
18:22:30 <deltab> uh
18:22:40 <deltab> have you tried making the change in hosts first?
18:22:47 <glen_quagmire> yes
18:22:57 <glen_quagmire> on my machine, a.com behaves same as b.com
18:22:58 <thelsdj> and did it work? (did you see your web app when visiting a.com)
18:23:00 <deltab> do you get the site you want?
18:23:09 <glen_quagmire> yup
18:23:10 <thelsdj> ok, so if so, ya change a.com to point to the ip
18:23:17 <thelsdj> (at godaddy)
18:23:50 <glen_quagmire> but, can I make a.com point to b.com instead of the ip?
18:23:55 <deltab> no
18:24:02 <deltab> not reliably
18:24:19 <thelsdj> ya, for a top level domain you need to use the ip
18:24:27 <thelsdj> for stuff like foo.a.com its different
18:24:42 <deltab> ?
18:24:57 <thelsdj> CNAME records are reliable
18:25:05 <thelsdj> but shouldn't use them for top level
18:25:34 <deltab> CNAME records are not reliable
18:26:06 <deltab> that is, they have rules and behaviour you might not expect
18:26:54 <glen_quagmire> so, can I put CNAME @ b.com    ?
18:27:10 <glen_quagmire> or CNAME @ ip-of-b.com
18:27:18 <deltab> if you have a CNAME at a.com, you can't have any other a.com records; that means no MX records and no mail
18:27:25 <deltab> no, do not use CNAME
18:27:55 <thelsdj> use plain old A record that points to ip of b.com
18:29:03 <glen_quagmire> I'll try A @ ip-of-b.com
18:29:41 <deltab> right (though it's usually written @ IN A 1.2.3.4)
18:29:42 <glen_quagmire> There are entries:  (A @ ip-of-a.com), (A mx ip-of-a.com), (A www ip-of-a.com)
18:30:07 <glen_quagmire> oh i don't know. I'm looking at godaddy's web interface
18:30:24 * glen_quagmire crosses fingers
18:30:30 <deltab> just so you know; they seem to be doing something a bit different
18:31:46 <deltab> "@" means a.com itself; the other records give the addresses of mx.a.com and www.a.com
18:32:21 <glen_quagmire> hrm does it take time to make it effective?
18:32:22 <thelsdj> glen_quagmire: you'll _probably_ want to point www at ip of b.com also
18:32:38 <thelsdj> glen_quagmire: want to [off] a.com domain name so we can test?

18:33:18 <thelsdj> glen_quagmire: your isp might be caching the old ip
18:33:34 <deltab> glen_quagmire: generally within seconds or minutes; however, DNS caches could be holding onto old records for a while
18:34:02 <deltab> that's especially likely with your own domain name if you've been trying to use it already
18:35:12 <thelsdj> glen_quagmire: works here
18:35:23 <thelsdj> so most likely you have old cache if not working for you
18:35:27 <thelsdj> i get same webpage at both
18:36:21 <deltab> yes, they have the same address
18:37:18 <glen_quagmire> alright
18:37:39 <glen_quagmire> So, i think when eapps somehow changes ip address of b.com, i'll have to update A entry on godaddy
18:38:38 <deltab> yes; but that's unlikely, and they'd contact you about it
18:38:59 <glen_quagmire> great!
18:39:17 <deltab> well, I expect so
18:39:35 <deltab> no, different address
