11:06 <chrispi> any sort of I/O bottleneck?
11:06 <chrispi> not all that familiar with freenas

11:42 <chrism> yeah http://www.kck.com/images/images/wood/wood_chunks.JPG is whatcha looking for, soak those in a bucket of water ~12 hours prior to cooking and use a brick to keep 'em undewater
11:42 <chrism> you'll have much cooler temps in that thing then
11:42 <chrispi> awesome
11:42 <chrism> plus you'll have to replenish it like 1/4th as often
11:43 <chrispi> yeah, that was annoying
11:43 <sampson> chrism: i just don't ever play games anymore
11:43 <chrism> also when doing pork stuffs, apple juice into water pan for fun and profit
11:43 <sampson> i'm going to keep the ps3 because john's nephew likes to play little big planet when he comes over
11:43 <sampson> but the only system i really play anymore is my ds
11:43 <chrism> sampson: I'd probably hang onto it cause some game is gonna come along that you sperg to play once you get rid of it
11:43 <chrism> hehe
11:44 <sampson> meh
11:44 <sampson> i'm kinda over buying games
11:44 <chrispi> chrism: yeah, just did water the first time through to get the hang of the smoker
11:44 <sampson> the last 10 or so i bought i played for a few hours and never touched again
11:44 <chrispi> gonna start playing around a bit more come this weekend
11:45 <chrism> chrispi: the other thing is that those burn hot for the first 4-5 uses
11:45 <chrispi> yeah, i was noticing
11:45 <chrism> after a few, it'll settle down a bit
11:45 <chrispi> awesome
11:46 <chrispi> such a good weekend
11:46 <chrispi> spent the bulk of saturday minding the smoker and sitting in a hammock drinking
11:46 <sampson> i bought a mbp on saturday and then got drunk and gambled
11:47 <sampson> and ate at the only 5 star resturaunt in sd and it sucked horrible ass
11:48 <chrispi> that sucks :\
11:49 <chrispi> hate spending cash on places like that
11:49 <chrism> sampson: how's the new mbp?
11:49 <chrispi> expectations are always higher than what I actually get
11:49 <chrism> hah yeah, there's few places that are 5* that I get off on
11:50 <chrism> at least when i've gone
11:50 <sampson> it hasn't come yet
11:50 <chrism> it always seems like it's more about the show than it is the food =(
11:50 <chrispi> mhmm
11:50 <sampson> yeah but this place was like awful
11:50 <chrism> did you tell them?
11:50 <sampson> i ordered a chicken something with ravioli dish
11:50 <sampson> it had NO flavor to it
11:51 <sampson> the breadding they used ont he chicken tasted like the flour hadn't cooked through
11:51 <sampson> the bread tasted worse than wonder bread
11:51 <sampson> and the menu hadn't changed AT ALL since the last time we went there 2 years ago
11:53 <chrispi> what's this place called?
11:53 <chrispi> i'm curious now

15:34 <kubi> ragesong: hola!
15:36 <sampson> whaaaaaaaaat
15:36 <sampson> I just received word from the Acekard Team that they have successfully been able to update their Acekard 2i flashcart to run on the Nintendo 3DS. However, they are not willing to release the update immediately, for the reasons below
15:36 <sampson> QUOTE(Acekard Team)
15:36 <sampson> We won't release the patch until more testing is made. And we are also concerned Nintendo might block it so *maybe* we'll release it after the 3DS is released in US and Europe.
15:36 <ragesong> hi hi hi
15:36 <sampson> phobosd: ^^^^
15:36 <ragesong> I'm alive
15:37 <phobosd> good news

15:37 <sampson> im gonna guess ds games only
15:37 <sampson> looks like a *lot* of the cards work for 3ds

15:53 <ppayyo> peruvians hellow
15:53 <sampson> so this year i think i'm going to itemize my return
15:53 <sampson> well my 2011 return
15:53 <sampson> because i can write off a considerable amount of that laptop
15:54 <sampson> since i really only used my old one for work
15:54 <sampson> and my phone/phone bill
15:54 ..: momo [chris@httpd.net] has left #chicago []
15:56 <chrism> yeah i tried that like 2 years ago and still had better luck w/ the standard deduction =(
15:56 <sampson> yeah i normally do too
15:57 <sampson> but with a $2500 laptop and a $300 phone that's half the deduction
15:57 <sampson> and i can deduct around 30% of my rent which is like 3500
15:57 <chrism> yeah but you don't actually deduct the full cost of the laptop i don't believe
15:57 <chrism> (i could be wrong there)
15:57 <sampson> i should be able to since i use my laptop only for work

16:32 <Volatile> Update 2: BGR’s saying the rendering at the top is likely fan-made, and on closer reading, those “live†snaps are actually Chinese dummy units used by accessory manufacturers.

17:24 <chrism> but I think i'd go back to the matte
17:24 <sampson> matte 4 lyfe
17:25 <sampson> i absolutely cannot stand glossy screens
17:26 <sampson> the plasma is so-so because we have blinds but it can annoy me if i watch tv in the morning

17:49 <phobosd> what ghetto DO YOU LIVE IN?
17:49 <phobosd> or is this auto
17:49 <sampson> car insurance
17:51 <sampson> my renters insurance is $99 per year
17:52 <sampson> hell geico is $506.30
17:52 <sampson> insurance is based off of credits core isn't it?
17:55 <chrism> yeah that's what we pay, ~120/year
17:55 <chrism> no it's not
17:55 <chrism> or i don't think so at any rate
18:03 <sampson> CHRIST allstate is expensive
18:03 <sampson> $726
18:03 <sampson> anyone have experience with progressive?
18:04 <phobosd> http://i.imgur.com/iVHUb.jpg
18:04 <phobosd> one of the admins just walked out to throw that away
18:04 <sampson> why he throw it away :(
18:05 <phobosd> cuz it almost fell over onto his desk
18:05 <phobosd> it literally needs to be supported now it's so tall
18:07 <ragesong> progressive is expensive
18:07 <ragesong> I never had to file a claim with them
18:07 <ragesong> but I didn't like them
18:08 <ragesong> I love state farm
18:08 <ragesong> they've always taken really good care of me
18:12 <sampson> progressive is $200 cheaper than state farm for me
18:13 <sampson> ah
18:13 <sampson> it's because progressive DOES go off credit score
18:14 <ragesong> yeah I mean if you never need to use it going with what's cheapest is best
18:14 <ragesong> I wouldn't like having to deal with progressive if my car got totaled
18:15 <sampson> i'll bug john about it later tonight and see what he says
18:15 <sampson> quote's good for 60 days
18:23 <sampson> they'd give me one of those stupid monitor things to see how i drive tho
18:26 <@scrim> wtf?
18:26 <@scrim> monitor your driving?
18:27 <@scrim> I think I had progressive when I tottaled my car
18:27 <@scrim> they attempted to rip me off
18:28 <@scrim> if i'd recorded my conversations with the claims guy i'd have gone to their supervisor looking to get him fired
18:29 <chrism> lol monitor things?
18:29 <chrism> fu
