[10:22]<+camerongray> And she wouldn't let me say no
[10:22]<+camerongray> I resorted to saying "Look! I want my existing order, not another!"
[10:23]<+camerongray> Needless to say - I don't think I'll be using them again
[10:23]<+camerongray> Plus they are one of those places that jump on you if you try to look at anything
[10:23]<@jacky> camerongray: hello
[10:23]<+camerongray> Hey
[10:24]<@jacky> http://hwn.org/stormpulse_atlantic.html
[10:24]<@jacky> remember talking to me, about flying over where I live?
[10:24]<+camerongray> Ahh :P
[10:24]<@jacky> see where that thing is supposed to be, Sunday at 8:00AM ?
[10:24]<+camerongray> Tad windy? :P
[10:25]<@jacky> ummm... it will be
[10:25]<@jacky> if it does that, this will be very bad
[10:25]<@jacky> "that" meaning to follow that track
[10:25]<+camerongray> Yeh
[10:25]<@jacky> worse would be for it to a bit farther west, and up the Chesapeake Bay
[10:25]<+camerongray> You had hurricanes before?
[10:26]<@jacky> in my lifetime?
[10:26]<@jacky> edges of them
[10:26]<@jacky> and it was very bad
[10:26]<+camerongray> Ahh
[10:26]<@jacky> by "edges" I mean like the main part went by like 150 miles away
[10:26]<@jacky> not like this forecast
[10:26]<+camerongray> WOW!
[10:26]<+camerongray> Stay safe :)
[10:27]<@jacky> I just heard them say on TV... to expect tropical storm winds ( I think that is like 60 to 70mph) out 200-225 miles
[10:27]<@jacky> about all we can do, is hold on
[10:27]<+camerongray> Yowch!
[10:27]<+camerongray> Literally :P
[10:27]<@jacky> where I live, won't flood
[10:27]<@jacky> but, it will be bad
[10:27]<+camerongray> Do you have a basement or anything?
[10:27]<@jacky> I expect no electric/phone for a while
[10:28]<@jacky> basement??
[10:28]<@jacky> heheeheh
[10:28]<+camerongray> lol
[10:28]<@jacky> this whole area is like 10 feet above sea level
[10:28]<@jacky> even where I live
[10:28]<+camerongray> That's a good sign
[10:28]<@jacky> very few people have basements, and usually they are and ongoing headache
[10:28]<@jacky> what is a good sign?
[10:28]<+camerongray> Being high up
[10:28]<+camerongray> Oh - Feet :P
[10:28]<@jacky> 10 feet?
[10:28]<@jacky> heheeheh
[10:28]<@jacky> it is flat as a pancake here
[10:29]<+camerongray> Yeh - I'm high up
[10:29]<@jacky> but east of me... Ocean city... will be in big trouble
[10:29]<+camerongray> As long as your buildings are sturdy enough to survive the wind
[10:29]<@jacky> unfortunately, there is only one way to find out
[10:29]<+camerongray> yeh
[10:29]<@jacky> this house was here, in the big storm of 1933
[10:30]<@jacky> there is the ocean, in the background: http://www.kiteloft.com/beachcam
[10:30]<@jacky> calm now... isn't it?
[10:31]<+camerongray> yeh
[10:31]<@jacky> here is a cool one... you can turn it yourself. http://www.ocmdhotels.com/webcams/inlet
[10:32]<@jacky> did you just turn it?
[10:32]<@jacky> heheheeh
[10:32]<+camerongray> Nah - not working for me
[10:32]<+camerongray> Says max number of clients exceeded
[10:32]<@jacky> bummer
[10:32]<@jacky> somebody is turning it
[10:32]<@jacky> try again... I'll get off now
[10:33]<@jacky> I'm off
[10:33]<@jacky> it doesn't surprise me that it is being swamped with hits... it will just get to be more and more.
[10:34]<+camerongray> That's it now
[10:36]<@jacky> ?
[10:36]<@jacky> meaning you can get in now?
[10:36]<@jacky> or what?
[10:37]<+camerongray> Yeh - working now
[10:37]<@jacky> cool
[10:38]<@jacky> not coming in for me now... just nothing... no message either
[10:38]<@jacky> interesting...
[10:38]<@jacky> what's it on, now?
[10:42]<+camerongray> The sea
[10:42]<+camerongray> And some cars
[10:42]<+camerongray> ooh "Dear camerongray1515,
[10:42]<+camerongray> Your YouTube account camerongray1515 might be eligible to earn revenue from the playbacks of your videos.
[10:42]<+camerongray> "
[10:43]<@jacky> must be overlooking the inlet parking lot then
[10:43]<@jacky> cool
[10:43]<@jacky> 
[10:43]<+camerongray> And just hit 43 subscribers - Getting more and more frequent
[10:44]<@jacky> ever gotten that before? about your youtube?
[10:44]<+camerongray> Nope
[10:44]<@jacky> interesting
[10:44]<@jacky> I bet it is just pennies though
[10:44]<+camerongray> Yeh
[10:44]<+camerongray> Better than nothing :P
[10:45]<@jacky> heh
[10:45]<+camerongray> I really need to get better lighting - The camera is great but I have to sit in the conservatory on a really bright day
[10:47]<+camerongray> It's so bright that I need sunglasses which means that I can't see what I'm reviewing :P
[10:52]<@jacky> conservatory?
[10:53]<@jacky> camera?
[10:53]<@BC_Programming> something like a subdeck, I think would be a good approximation of a conservatory
[10:53]<@BC_Programming> sundeck*
[10:53]<@jacky> ok
[10:53]<@jacky> and what was that about a camera?
[10:53]<+camerongray> Basically a room made of glass
[10:54]<+camerongray> The camera I use for my videos is really good but need better light
[10:54]<@jacky> oh
[10:54]<@jacky> ok
[10:54]<@jacky> BC_Programming: Hello
[10:54]<+camerongray> http://www.panasonic.co.uk/html/en_GB/Products/HDC-HS60/Overview/3296909/index.html
[10:54]<@BC_Programming> jacky:hello
[10:54]<+camerongray> ^^^ That's whay I use
[10:55]<@jacky> ok
[10:55]<@BC_Programming> My youtube views are dismal, some of my videos have been up for months and have like 4 views
[10:55]<@jacky> that's because it is a video of a sleeping possum
[10:55]<@BC_Programming> the only ones that have a sizable amount are the ones where I expected the opposite
[10:55]<@jacky> <g>

[10:59]<+camerongray> lol
[10:59]<+camerongray> You should do reviews :P
[11:00]<@BC_Programming> yeah but that would mean buying new stuff
[11:00]<@BC_Programming> either that or I review old crap
[11:00]<+camerongray> BC: I like your comment on my graphics card review: I've always loved how video cards, sound cards, etc always seem to come in a babushkaÿ doll of boxes and packaging.
[11:01]<@BC_Programming> heh well it is true
[11:01]<+camerongray> Yeh
[11:01]<+camerongray> Like the big box with a leaflet and a CD inside
[11:01]<@BC_Programming> lol that was funny
[11:01]<@BC_Programming> what's next, we buy a USB thumbdrive and it comes in a refrigerator sized box full of packing peanuts?
[11:02]<+camerongray> Here it is: http://youtu.be/u-wFp81-Mxo?t=3m41s
[11:03]<@BC_Programming> I could do facetious reviews
[11:03]<@BC_Programming> "Today I'll be doing an unboxing of my K6-2.
[11:03]<+camerongray> I also like the bit in the instructions where they are showing how to install the card using photos of a 6/7 year old AGP card!
[11:03]<@BC_Programming> "I no longer have the box so I will instead be using this empty cheerios box"
[11:04]<@BC_Programming> or something
[11:05]<+camerongray> lol
[11:05]<+camerongray> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcQ6OAhPHng - Unboxing a IBM PS/2
[11:05]<+camerongray> As in actually unboxing for the first time in 2009
[11:05]<@BC_Programming> "and since I don't have the manuals I will instead pretend this Instruction booklet for SNES's F-ZERO title is the CPU manual"
[11:06]<@BC_Programming> oooh
[11:06]<@BC_Programming> that would be interesting, watching
[11:06]<@BC_Programming> I wonder if anybody still has a boxed original IBM PC
[11:06]<+camerongray> That guy's stuff is really good - I'd recommend you subscribe to him
[11:07]<@BC_Programming> I may do that, will give me something to watch :P
[11:07]<+camerongray> Yeh
[11:07]<+camerongray> All old computers/electronics
[11:07]<+camerongray> And his frogs
[11:07]<@BC_Programming> I didn't know they made tower PS/2's
[11:07]<+camerongray> Well - frog, one ate the other - He did a video on it :P
[11:07]<@BC_Programming> haha
[11:09]<+camerongray> And he got a model m with it :P
[11:09]<@BC_Programming> hey wait a second I did do a review, of my 440CDX :P
[11:10]<+camerongray> Yeh - I remember that
[11:14]<@BC_Programming> I'm liking the facetious review idea though, heh
[11:20]<@BC_Programming> I think bbishoppcm may want to get a cameraman or something, lol
[11:24]<@BC_Programming> heh I made another splash screen image for BASeBlock
[11:24]<@BC_Programming> http://bc-programming.com/images/other/splash4_y.png
[11:36]<@BC_Programming> Wow I was ranting about Photoshop before I tried to use it regularly
[11:36]<@BC_Programming> now it's just absurd
[11:37]<@BC_Programming> Photoshop was sitting there, doing nothing, no files open
[11:37]<@BC_Programming> but decided, "hey, let's consume 2GB of RAM for no reason"
[11:37]<@BC_Programming> even 3ds Max was using less while it was rendering for goodness sake

[22:32]<@BC_Programming> hello Tux
[22:33]<Tux2> Hi BC_Programming
[22:33]<Tux2> I am so ready for my own wifi again...
[22:33]<@BC_Programming> heh
[22:34]<Tux2> I put my snack bag next to my laptop... unfortunately my laptop didn't receive any wireless when I did that...
[22:34]<@BC_Programming> haha
[22:34]<@BC_Programming> I was bored earlier so I made some wallpapers
[22:34]<Tux2> MLP ones?
[22:34]<@BC_Programming> yeah
[22:34]<@BC_Programming> http://bc-programming.com/images/other/mlp/wallpaper/rainbowdash.png
[22:34]<@BC_Programming> http://bc-programming.com/images/other/mlp/wallpaper/main6cmc.png
[22:35]<@BC_Programming> and a new BaseBlock splash screen image http://bc-programming.com/images/other/splash4_y.png
[22:36]<Tux2> ROFLMAO that last one was CLASSIC!
[22:37]<@BC_Programming> yeah I like the certification, lol
[22:37]<Tux2> I like the second one a lot. What did you do to do it?
[22:38]<@BC_Programming> well I found the "buttonized" images of the ponies on deviantart a while ago
[22:38]<@BC_Programming> that was just a matter of plopping each one down, and adding glow effects to their layers
[22:38]<@BC_Programming> Rainbow's was the most annoying, had to overlay it with a rainbow gradient that mixed as hue
[22:38]<Tux2> :) Nice work.
[22:39]<@BC_Programming> thx
[22:39]<Tux2> If I didn't have people looking at my desktop all the time that would so totally be my wallpaper.
[22:40]<@BC_Programming> haha
[22:41]<Tux2> Yeah, I know, I don't expect them to understand...
[22:42]<Tux2> I DO have a MLP background, it's just not obvious that it is MLP
[22:42]<@BC_Programming> oh cool, pic?
[22:43]<Tux2> uploading on the slow wifi....
[22:43]<@BC_Programming> on my win machine I have a bunch set to rotate every 30 minutes, along with a few stargate backgrounds I found, and the backgrounds I was already using
[22:43]<@BC_Programming> have some on my laptop as well using Drapes
[22:44]<Tux2> nice
[22:45]<Tux2> I have a hunch that the neighbor's wireless will be a bit overpowered when I turn my wifi router on...
[22:45]<Tux2> /home/joshua/Desktop/Screenshot.png
[22:45]<Tux2> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/35110620/Screenshot.png
[22:46]<Tux2> Ugh, had the wrong link in the clipboard, the second one is correct.
[22:46]<@BC_Programming> nice!
[22:46]<@BC_Programming> yeah I figured :P
[22:46]<@BC_Programming> I always chuckle when I see people doing that on forums
[22:46]<@BC_Programming> and then wonder why it doesn't work
[22:46]<Tux2> lol, yeah, I hit the copy button, but I guess the flash part of the dropbox page didn't load so it really didn't copy it to my clipboard.
[22:48]<@BC_Programming> haha... "Like car accidents, most hardware problems are due to driver error."
[22:50]<Tux2> lol, yeah, I've seen that one. I think mechanics can relate to that one. ;)
[22:50]<Tux2> Speaking of which, tomorrow I neec to put oil in my car, I'm getting low...
[22:50]<Tux2> need*
[22:54]<Tux2> So, are you looking forward to season 2 BC_Programming?
[22:54]<@BC_Programming> I am
[22:54]<@BC_Programming> that sort of goes without saying I would think, heh
[22:54]<Tux2> lol!
[22:54]<Tux2> Do you have the HUB?
[22:55]<@BC_Programming> no.. I got most of them via youtube, of course that will probably be off the table
[22:55]<Tux2> lol, yeah...
[22:55]<@BC_Programming> actually, I don't know if I do, I would have to check!
[22:55]<Tux2> :) If you do would you mind streaming it to me?
[22:55]<@BC_Programming> I could try
[22:56]<Tux2> That would be cool. Much better than trying to find a thread on the internet with a streaming link...
[23:02]<@BC_Programming> well found my USB TV Tuner, now I just need another coax so I can give the channels a look see
[23:02]<@BC_Programming> of course I could always just go downstairs and use the TV to see but where is the fun in that
[23:09]<Tux2> lol! Of course!
[23:11]<Tux2> I'll spend six hours on the computer fiddling out a medley when I could just use a piano and pluck it out, add accompaniment and everything in less than ten minutes...
[23:11]<@BC_Programming> heh... I can't play any instruments IRL worth crap
[23:12]<Tux2> lol! Well, the people I am moving in with have a piano, but it isn't in yet, so I have to wait to exercise my fingers again...
[23:13]<@BC_Programming> yay Media Player Classic can use my TV Tuner
[23:13]<@BC_Programming> now to figure out how to change channels
[23:14]<Tux2> :)
[23:14]<Tux2> Download the drivers from the manufacturer's website. ;)
[23:15]<@BC_Programming> well it's playing one channel in MPC
[23:15]<@BC_Programming> just need to find out how to change it
[23:15]<@BC_Programming> also, the manufacturer software (hauppage) blows
[23:15]<Tux2> lol, I googled Net 10, the place I'm switching my phone over to and the first link that pops up has a $5 off coupon!
[23:15]<Tux2> I love it when things like that happen. :D
[23:15]<@BC_Programming> oh well that seems obvious now "increase speed" and "decrease speed" change the channel
[23:16]<Tux2> lol
[23:16]<Tux2> cool.
[23:16]<Tux2> Oh, did you know that middle clicking the back button in firefox will open the previous page in a new tab?
[23:18]<@BC_Programming> that's cool, makes sense, really, middle click opens links in new tabs after all
[23:18]<Tux2> lol, yeah, I just tried it because that's what I needed.
[23:19]<Tux2> and it actually worked!
[23:37]<@BC_Programming> hmmm not 100% sure I have it, but I went to shaw.ca and was able to search listings and there are a few episodes on another channel
[23:39]<Tux2> ah...
[23:39]<@BC_Programming> either the listings or wrong or MPC isn't telling me the right channels, too
[23:40]<Tux2> Hey, have you listened to the better synced version of that medley I did?
[23:40]<@BC_Programming> did you upload another one?
[23:40]<Tux2> Just the MP3
[23:41]<@BC_Programming> oh woops I put in the wrong Postal code... that's why the listings are wrong, lol
[23:42]<Tux2> lol!
[23:42]<Tux2> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/35110620/fim_medley-with_voices.mp3
[23:42]<Tux2> It's just about perfectly in synch now
[23:46]<@BC_Programming> hmm, I'm considering installing my TV Wonder rather than using this USB one... see if the quality is less crap
[23:47]<Tux2> ah...
[23:48]<Tux2> Hey, quick question, what do the zip codes in canada look like?
[23:48]<@BC_Programming> V9T-1Y1
[23:48]<@BC_Programming> Letter,number,letter - number-letter-number

[23:50]<Tux2> Alpha numeric huh? Do they follow any specific pattern?
[23:51]<@BC_Programming> how do you mean?
[23:52]<Tux2> Does the "V" correspond to a region or something, like "Vancouver"?
[23:52]<Tux2> or is just a random letter assigned?
[23:53]<@BC_Programming> I have no idea, I know V9T is used on the island, and maybe also in Vancouver
[23:53]<@BC_Programming> but I don't think the letter itself is significant in that regard, just coincidence

[23:56]<Tux2> ugh, stupid wifi...
[23:57]<Tux2> Trying my hand at doing my own version of "Hush now, Quiet Now" in LMMS...
[23:57]<@BC_Programming> good luck :D
[23:58]<Tux2> lol, the first 5 measures were relatively easy... if I had a piano available it would much faster...
