completely OT, but a bit frustrating: debugging this dhcp service is annoying. it goes something like "Hi, I'm a dhcp client!" "Hey, there, I'm a server. Based on how you're connected, you can have address X" "Hey server, will you let me use address X?" "No, based on how you're connected you can't use address X"

and that conversation repeats in an inifinite loop :(
2011-08-01 21322, 2011
kepstin-laptop goes off to find a technical forum to talk about this, instead of a music-related chat channel :)

lol, it ended up being a typo that I didn't see.
2011-08-01 21338, 2011
kepstin-laptop
put a 2 instead of a 4 in one place
2011-08-01 21313, 2011
kyomi
Isn't that always the case? :)
2011-08-01 21318, 2011
kyomi
I've done that more then once

it's really annoying with these ipv6 addresses, because they're just long strings of hex characters.
2011-08-01 21300, 2011
kyomi
btw.. tagging Two Steps From Hell.. is pretty on par..
2011-08-01 21320, 2011
kepstin-laptop
honestly, could you notice a single-letter typo in something that looks like "2001:470:b198:2:54a7:141:d197:b65f"?
2011-08-01 21320, 2011
kyomi
Puts you two steps from hell trying to correct the files to the right tag -_-
2011-08-01 21329, 2011

Honestly... ?
2011-08-01 21333, 2011
kyomi
No XD
2011-08-01 21355, 2011
kyomi
ipv6 is just going to be alot more confusing :(
2011-08-01 21321, 2011
kepstin-laptop
not really. you don't ever use ip address for anything, you always use domain names and hostnames. and those don't change.
2011-08-01 21351, 2011
kyomi
Maybe I'm doing it wrong then :p
2011-08-01 21300, 2011
kyomi
home networking you use ips >.>
2011-08-01 21335, 2011

hmm? my consumer router has built-in dns. I can access all the computers in my house by name.
2011-08-01 21355, 2011
kyomi
yeah.. the almost never worked before...
2011-08-01 21311, 2011
kyomi
It's alot easier for me to remember the number then the name.. Odd.. isn't it?
2011-08-01 21331, 2011

the trick has always been memorable names :)

2011-08-01 21307, 2011
kyomi
Although... still haven't quite figured out a way to get an explorer window on my files away from home
2011-08-01 21324, 2011
kyomi
I know it has something to do with mapping the domain name as a network harddrive
2011-08-01 21304, 2011
kepstin-laptop
kyomi: no, it has nothing at all to do with that. The reason you can't do that is complicated, and has to do with firewalling and network address translation.
2011-08-01 21320, 2011
kyomi
So there isn't a way I can do that?
2011-08-01 21331, 2011
kepstin-laptop
but the key point: Windows network drives are so insecure that it would be a really bad idea, even if you could.
2011-08-01 21303, 2011
kyomi
sure sure.. windows is OMG INSECURE.. but if you go to linux it's like omg butterflies and rainbows secure :p
2011-08-01 21318, 2011
kepstin-laptop
what you actually want to do is set up a VPN (virtual private network) server in your house which you can connect to.
2011-08-01 21325, 2011
kepstin-laptop
that'll create a secured connection.
2011-08-01 21339, 2011
kyomi
so umm.. yeah... no idea how to do that >.>;
2011-08-01 21347, 2011
kepstin-laptop
then it'll make it seem like you're on the same network as your home computer, so you can browse it the same as always
2011-08-01 21357, 2011
kyomi
Can it work from Windows Home Server?
2011-08-01 21311, 2011
kepstin-laptop
there's some free and commercial products for vpn servers, some of them are fairly easy to set up - and can be installed on windows.
2011-08-01 21320, 2011
kepstin-laptop
i'm not familiar with any windows ones tho.
2011-08-01 21314, 2011
kyomi
why is windows like the bane of anyones existence?
2011-08-01 21329, 2011

It's easy, stuff works.. no superfluous seteup

graphics are on par with windows 95..
2011-08-01 21327, 2011
kyomi
theres like 6 million packages and *YOU* have to figure out which one is right for your system
2011-08-01 21335, 2011
kepstin-laptop
man, you haven't seen anything the linux folks have done in the past year or so ;)
2011-08-01 21339, 2011
kyomi
And of course you can't install the version listed there
2011-08-01 21300, 2011
kyomi
Because theres some hidden incompatibility you don't know about unless you programed it
2011-08-01 21305, 2011
kyomi
programmed*
2011-08-01 21319, 2011
kyomi
And then that breaks it and good luck getting it back :)
2011-08-01 21347, 2011
kyomi
so.. I like windows atm.. because it just works and is very easy to install things on and code on :3
2011-08-01 21335, 2011
kepstin-laptop
I can't stand coding on windows. give me a proper command-line compiler and make any day.
2011-08-01 21331, 2011
kyomi
that just asks for random issues to crop up because you missed some puncuation somewhere or didn't get the EXACT name of some inane option
2011-08-01 21353, 2011

You know

Isn't Hamachi a VPN thingy?
2011-08-01 21311, 2011
kepstin-laptop
yes, hamachi would work.
2011-08-01 21330, 2011
kyomi
I used that briefly to fix Brink multiplayer :)
2011-08-01 21345, 2011
kyomi
Me and a friend couldn't connect.... used hamachi and it was fixed
2011-08-01 21301, 2011
kepstin-laptop
the VPN/remote access functionality was actually the original point of hamachi, until games realized how it was useful for playing LAN games over the internet :)
2011-08-01 21304, 2011
kyomi
you play any online games on pc or ps3? :)
2011-08-01 21319, 2011
kepstin-laptop
I play a couple on pc, but very very rarely.
2011-08-01 21328, 2011

bah.. whats the fun in that? :P

You are insane :p

I've spent a weekend retagging my music... and it's killing me
2011-08-01 21313, 2011
kepstin-laptop saves retagging music for when he's bored, it's nice and relaxing :)
2011-08-01 21326, 2011
kyomi
How is it relaxing? lol
2011-08-01 21343, 2011
kyomi
It's annoying when you get lots of [cannot load album]
2011-08-01 21353, 2011
kyomi
Or it's not in the DB
2011-08-01 21310, 2011
kepstin-laptop
well, not so much retagging, as just tagging in the first place.
2011-08-01 21328, 2011
kepstin-laptop
most of the music I get isn't in the database to start with, I have to add it myself.
2011-08-01 21342, 2011
kepstin-laptop
and there's always cleaning up stuff that's currently in the database.
2011-08-01 21352, 2011
kyomi
Thats not really relaxing for me
2011-08-01 21300, 2011
kyomi
I haven't played *anything* today
2011-08-01 21315, 2011
kyomi
and just tagged soundtracks and almost all of the "misc" folder
2011-08-01 21331, 2011
kyomi
Still have Dance/Electronica and most of the Industrial folder
I don't quite follow, for which letter is that output?

Should adding a disc id for a medium immediately set track times, if they are all undefined?

ocharles: that's a very old ticket and requires a patched version of libunac
2011-08-01 21337, 2011
luks
the search server and the direct search both convert the characters
2011-08-01 21347, 2011
ocharles
ah, ok
2011-08-01 21349, 2011
luks
the patch is in the old ticket in trac
2011-08-01 21321, 2011
ocharles
I did consider just offloading the work to db
2011-08-01 21327, 2011
ocharles
SELECT musicbrainz_unaccent(?)
2011-08-01 21337, 2011
nikki
ocharles: I'm not very good at explaining, but what I meant in the original trac ticket was that when a language has ı it has I as the capital letter, and there's a separate letter i with İ as the capital letter... and you can imagine how messed up the dot/no dot gets when normally i corresponds to I... so it needs fixing a lot
2011-08-01 21345, 2011
luks
I'd consider taking over Text::Unaccent
2011-08-01 21315, 2011
ocharles
I wonder if I can request co-maint on that
2011-08-01 21324, 2011
ocharles
seeing as it hasn't been updated in years
2011-08-01 21334, 2011
luks
we've talked to the guy years ago, he said he will commit the patch to CVS and nothing happened
2011-08-01 21350, 2011
ocharles
I can probably request co-maint as it's abandoned then
2011-08-01 21354, 2011
nikki
and normally adding/removing an accent is an auto-edit, like doing o -> ö in swedish, so I don't see why i İ ı I should be any different
2011-08-01 21359, 2011
ocharles
yea
2011-08-01 21306, 2011
ocharles
nikki: I just wanted to make sure they count as the same letter
2011-08-01 21321, 2011
ocharles
(when unaccented)
2011-08-01 21331, 2011
luks
but yea, using the database would be the simplest solution for now
