15:39:15 [Psychephylax]

15:39:24 [markd2]
ewwwww....
15:40:09 [Psychephylax]
:-D
15:40:22 [Psychephylax]
Oh boy oh boy oh boy! Season 2 of the simpsons might be coming out by Christmas
15:48:46 [markd2]
qoolio
15:48:55 [markd2]
how many eps do they fit on a dvd?
15:49:36 [Psychephylax]
Well, the 13 episode season 1 came out on 3
15:49:44 [Psychephylax]
6 per dvd + extras
15:49:52 [Psychephylax]
so 3rd dvd has only 1 episode
15:50:11 [Psychephylax]
Let's see
15:50:20 [Psychephylax]
I don't remember all the features but
15:51:41 [Psychephylax]
13 episodes, full screen format, subtitles in 3 diff languages, English, SPanish, Korean(?), regular audio, surround sound audio, color commentary, 3 episode scripts, a Tracy Ulman Short, a bunch of drawings
15:52:01 [markd2]
oooh
15:52:08 [markd2]
Those Ulman shorts are awesome
15:52:12 [Psychephylax]
hehe
15:52:19 [markd2]
I liked the zap-the-family one
15:52:51 [Psychephylax]
That's not a short
15:52:55 [Psychephylax]
that's episode 4 I think
15:54:13 [markd2]
they may have turned the short into an episode
15:54:23 [Psychephylax]
heh
15:54:38 [Psychephylax]
It's called: There's No Disgrace Like Home: The Simpsons enter a family therapy course.
15:54:46 [Psychephylax]
Unless, we're talking about two diff episodes
15:55:29 [Psychephylax]
Is it the one where he pawns the tv to get therapy but they go nuts with the bats and the shock therapy and get 2x their money back so they get a new tv?
15:57:02 [davb]
argh! More bugs in ns_xmlrpc. Its weird how the validator works ok, but I still have many bugs.
15:57:37 [markd2]
this was just the shock therapy portion
16:00:53 [Psychephylax]
oh
16:00:55 [Psychephylax]
hehe
16:01:04 [Psychephylax]
I guess they made it into a full episode then
16:02:19 [Psychephylax]
i can't wait to own all of the episodes
16:02:33 [Psychephylax]
I sure as hell hope they go faster than one season per year
16:02:43 [Psychephylax]
I'll be 40 by the time they release the last one :)
16:05:49 [davb]
OK, I fixed the bug.
16:07:04 [Psychephylax]

Hi jerry
22:30:38 [jerryasher]
Hi Dave.
22:30:56 [jerryasher]
I am about to head out for a few hours, but I was hoping to enlist your guys' help.
22:31:21 [jerryasher]
I have written a system blog/user blog module for OpenACS 3.2.5 and would
22:31:33 [jerryasher]
like to hear what you folks think of it.
22:31:49 [jerryasher]
It's heavily templated -- one should be able to create
22:31:55 [davb]
Sounds cool.
22:32:06 [jerryasher]
a blog that looks like dan gillmors or doc searls or dave winers.
22:32:24 [davb]
That is good.
22:32:33 [davb]
Will it work on a stock 3.2.5?
22:32:35 [jerryasher]
You can take a look at "the featured system blog" at http://theashergroup.com/blog
22:32:52 [jerryasher]
Yes.
22:33:21 [davb]
Nifty. I fixed another bug in ns_xmlrpc in xmlrpc_parse that shows up with ns_xml 1.4
22:33:32 [jerryasher]
If you visit /bboard/blogs, you should see the current user blogs and/or create your own.
22:33:44 [davb]
Cool.
22:33:51 [jerryasher]
(I didn't realize there was an ns_xml 1.4, BUT I did see that python xml-rpc

http://acs-misc.sourceforge.net
22:34:07 [chump]
B: http://acs-misc.sourceforge.net from davb
22:34:08 [jerryasher]
had a similar bug as one of ours: letting anyone run anything on your machine.)
22:34:21 [davb]
B:|ns_xml 1.4 and other goodies
22:34:21 [chump]
titled item B
22:35:21 [jerryasher]
Anyway, I am sure there are bugs to be fixed and links to be added, but I would be
22:35:26 [jerryasher]
interested to hear what you folks think.
22:35:29 [davb]
Yeah. that can be a problem. Anyway I hooked it up to weblogs.com new xmlrpc update feature.
22:36:02 [jerryasher]
One thing I want to add to my blog is automatic RSSness.
22:36:09 [davb]
I'll let you know. You should checkout edit-this-page for 4.
22:36:38 [davb]
Yeah me too. I want to add RSS to everything so bboard posts, news, articles, whatever can be syndicated.
22:36:46 [jerryasher]
Yep, I need to get on the OpenACS 4 bandwagon.
22:37:05 [jerryasher]
Anyway, gotta go for now. Talk later. Byte.
22:37:09 [davb]
bye
22:37:10 [jerryasher]
Oops. bye.
