13:17	<khedron>	Howdy all -- who should I talk to about prorated upgrade pricing?
13:17	<bendy24>	mikegrb or caker
13:21	<@mikegrb>	khedron: just put in a ticket requesting the upgrade
13:22	<khedron>	mikegrb: I'd like to get a quote first
13:22	<@mikegrb>	from what plan to what plan?
13:23	<khedron>	in the midst of a 1-year 120 to a year from now of the 160
13:24	<@mikegrb>	normally we just charge the prorated amount for the remaining time, so your renewal date would be the same
13:25	<khedron>	that works -- would I still get 150% storage space?
13:25	<@mikegrb>	which would be $45 in your case
13:25	<@mikegrb>	yes
13:25	<@mikegrb>	!avail
13:25	<linbot>	mikegrb: Linode80 - 0, Linode120 - 0, Linode160 - 0, Linode240 - 1, Linode320 - 1
13:25	<khedron>	hmm
13:25	<@mikegrb>	no slots available at the moment
13:26	<@mikegrb>	so as soon as one was available, it would be setup
13:26	<bendy24>	khedron: snarf up the 4320
13:26	<@mikegrb>	end up being less then 45
13:26	<bendy24>	320
13:26	<khedron>	ok, I'll add a ticket right now

23:08	<warewolf>	I have succumbed to the skype fad
23:08	<warewolf>	because it's fuckign work related
23:08	<warewolf>	groan
23:09	<taupehat>	haha
23:09	<warewolf>	the sucky thing?
23:09	<warewolf>	there is a skype client for linux -- but
23:09	<taupehat>	as long as you don't open a myspace account
23:09	<warewolf>	the usb-audio drivers in alsa apparently don't work this logitech usb headset very well under linux
23:09	<taupehat>	oh
23:09	<taupehat>	that headset was your first mistake
23:09	<warewolf>	eventhough I used mpg123 -d /dev/dsp1 just fine to play audio
23:09	<taupehat>	get a regular one
23:09	<warewolf>	um no
23:09	<warewolf>	it works just fine
23:10	<warewolf>	it's a usb audio hid device
23:10	<warewolf>	no drivers anywhere needed
23:10	<warewolf>	this is the playstation 2 usb headset
23:10	<warewolf>	everybody loves it
23:10	<taupehat>	bah
23:10	[~]	taupehat has his sennheisers - can't find better cans than those
23:10	<warewolf>	I have sony MDR-V90s
23:12	<warewolf>	sorry
23:12	<warewolf>	MDR-V600s
23:12	<warewolf>	http://images.google.com/images?q=MDR-V600
23:13	<warewolf>	I bought them almost 6 years ago for $90
23:13	<warewolf>	they work like a champ
23:13	<warewolf>	fucking beautiful bass response
23:13	<warewolf>	I can't crank music up loud enough to make the headphones distrort the sound
23:13	<warewolf>	they just keep pumping
23:15	<taupehat>	yeah, same with these senns
23:15	<taupehat>	and I bought them for $35 plus shipping
23:15	<taupehat>	amazing - some of the electronica I listen to is pretty hard on speakers
23:15	<warewolf>	I have yet to own a pair of sennheisers, but I've heard nothing but good on them
23:15	<taupehat>	and these things just _drop_
23:16	<taupehat>	ah
23:16	[~]	warewolf nods
23:16	<taupehat>	yeah, if you need new ones, I'm pretty thrilled with the headset I have
23:16	<warewolf>	these work fine
23:16	<warewolf>	infact, they're so old that the fake leather coating in the cups has peeled off
23:16	<warewolf>	now it's just foam fuzz
23:16	<warewolf>	foam/sponge fuzz
23:16	<warewolf>	still comfy
23:17	<warewolf>	actually, maybe even better because it doesn't cause me to sweat since before they made an airtight seal
