whereas the flash and the pan stuff, is novelty pop that makes doctorin' the tardis look like beethoven

wow. last quarter we earned $135 from amazon.

that is 8% of our hosting costs.

not bad at all.

How is that earned?

by people buying things by clicking on the buy link.

next to an album

there is a buy link?

next time you buy something from amazon, music or not, enter amazon via one of those links and MB gets a but

cut

lauri: next to each album that has coverart

is that new?

actually buying or is clicking enough? :D

lauri: nope.

Prodoc: buying

we get nothing for clicks.

darn

except for a virtual pat on the back.

heh, the first dozen albums i went to look at, dont have cover art

please do!

oh! there is one!

but you can go through, navigate to something else like a BSG box set, and still genereate money for MB right?

how much do you get?

Kerensky97: yes

ruaok: If you can tell me how to do the italic lines thingy in irc I will too ;)

Cool, I'll get some moey for MB tonight.

*money too

Prodoc: what italic lines thingy?

Prodoc: /me blah blah

your previous message 'makes a note to remember to...' appears in italic over here

what luks said then

and that's something your client does, it's all upright for me :)

heh, cheers again luks ;)

:)

robert__ is now known as ruaok

grrr.

nikki_: can you please give me an example of an ASIN that lives in a non .com store ?

give me the link to the non .com store

http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000059QYU/ (I just added it)

and that is not avail on .com store?

highly unlikely (I will check though)

nope, it isn't

thanks

djce: we can retain zim. :-)

cool.

and I even have a place to host it so that it doesn't add up to our bills.

will be at HE, but hey/

happy and peaceful retirement

naw.

zim will be the new test server.

with the 10 or so test beds for new devs to play with

that's mostly out to pasture. certainly not combat duty

I'll go slap a new drive in and a new os when we move him.

Cool. So, is it due for a debian/ubuntu "flatten" rebuild at some point?

:-)

june 3rd or june 4th will be the day.

time for a nap, goodnight

night Prodoc !

djce: I'm curious to see if DW will honor that. if not, its time to boot their ACL in the butt

Yeah, I couldn't remember if I (and if so, what identity) was on the list or not.

Dave Evans from the UK. :-)

DW?

and then I listed off 2-3 known emails for you.

Digital West

the new hosting company.

ahh

which I am VERY happy with.

very cool peopoe.

has anyone noticed ANY network outages since we moved?

random "where did the server go" kind of moments?

not me

not here, either.

erm... I've only had "where did my internet connection go", but that doesn't count

but I didn't have many "where did the server go" moments anyway

I'm puzzled by their IP allocation scheme, but that's my only quibble.

In the hallway at DW they have tchotchkies of the companies that are hosted there.

We need a MusicBrainz somethign there.

tchottiewhattie?

djce: yeah, I dunno about those two reserved ips on a block.

knick knacks

ah

they did look at me a little funny when I wanted someone not on the same continent on the ACL list.

hmm?

I just referred them to the "I'm not your usual customer" comment from the outset.

dave is authorsized to make changes to our setup, yet he doesn't even live in north america;.

ohh!

I think it should be obvious from your hair that you're not the usual sort of guy

how long?

about 8" all over

roughly

and mine gets shorter and shorter...

yes, and from our intro conversation it became even more clear.

a year ago, I could sit on it, now it's only just past my shoulders

well, my hair is.

nikki_: we're probably about to pass each other in length then

that line outof context is a lovely sig

\0/

I'm loving the decreased amount of spam

cool. for now I'm reporting them all to spamcop

although I can see that that may well become tedious

catch you tomorrow

hello!

i have a question: why doesnt picard lookup albums itself? if i do it says that the album matches 100%.....

because picard isn't yet as automated as it could be

is there any other version which can do?

or application

I'm not sure I'd want to trust any application to do completely automated guessing.

and can you estimate how long it will take till it's automated? it's a great software but this would be the last step of stairs to heavens door :D

no, completly woundn'T be nice. but just this step... that i don't have to click on lookup --> first in line --> drag 'n' drop .....

so can you tell me what the option: when matching tracks to albums, accept tracks that are at least: ...

is for?

Well it hasn't been finished yet. AFAIK.

It'll probably be more useful in the next version.

Picard hasn't fully replaced the old Musicbrainz Tagger yet.

teppichfransen: lustiger nick ;)
