nlsthzn | np... hi uncle Kilos :) | 06:31 |
Kilos | hi nlsthzn all good there? | 06:32 |
nlsthzn | Not to shabby Uncle Kilos ... fresh from a night shift... no sleep until 10 tonight... (even if the brain has already shut down...) :p | 06:32 |
Kilos | ouch. | 06:33 |
Kilos | our channel shrinking all the time | 06:33 |
Kilos | and some leave the work pc online so one doesnt know if they are actually here | 06:34 |
nlsthzn | Low tide now :) | 06:34 |
Kilos | hehe | 06:34 |
Kilos | hey nlsthzn can you look at gtwitter | 06:35 |
nlsthzn | Twitter...? | 06:35 |
Kilos | i got it installed but cant find a connect button | 06:35 |
nlsthzn | gwibber | 06:35 |
Kilos | its in synaptic | 06:35 |
Kilos | gtwitter | 06:35 |
Kilos | gwibber uses data like i am uncapped | 06:36 |
nlsthzn | I have never seen or heard of gtwitter... | 06:36 |
nlsthzn | I can install it and see | 06:36 |
Kilos | it tries to connected but the preferences where you put username and password only has an ok button but it doesnt connect | 06:37 |
nlsthzn | you already have a twitter account setup? | 06:38 |
Kilos | prefs only has a sign up button not sign in | 06:38 |
Kilos | yip | 06:38 |
nlsthzn | from what I can see as soon as the info is added it starts running... | 06:39 |
Kilos | keeps saying posting failed | 06:39 |
nlsthzn | Eish... I have never heard of this app... I don't think it is used a lot... probably because it isn't that good :/ | 06:41 |
Kilos | lol | 06:41 |
Kilos | i even tried to man it but nothing | 06:41 |
Kilos | Maaz, google gTwitter on ubuntu maverick | 06:43 |
Maaz | Kilos: "Ubuntu -- Details of package python-twitter in maverick" http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/python-twitter :: "Ubuntu -- Details of package libtwitter-glib-1.0-0 in maverick" http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/libtwitter-glib-1.0-0 :: "Ubuntu 'Maverick Meerkat' erects own App Store • The Register" http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/09/03/ubuntu_maverick_meerkat_beta/ :: "Ubuntu Gives Maverick a shot in the ARM | OMG! Ubuntu!" htt | 06:43 |
Kilos | never mind nlsthzn i will try find what the prob is | 06:43 |
Kilos | ty | 06:43 |
nlsthzn | Kilos, I am not getting many hits on gtwitter... not much help out there in Internet land on it :/ | 06:45 |
Kilos | what is it actually | 06:46 |
Kilos | a client like xchat or what | 06:46 |
Kilos | i even tried python-twitter but dunno what to do there either | 06:47 |
Kilos | cant even find it | 06:47 |
Kilos | hehe nlsthzn it refreshed and last post was 94 days ago | 07:06 |
Kilos | so it cant be connected to twitter properly or something | 07:07 |
nlsthzn | Kilos, I will give it an install now and see... | 07:08 |
Kilos | dont worry nlsthzn | 07:08 |
nlsthzn | I don't worry about it :p | 07:09 |
Kilos | i just needed to find out if it was me ty | 07:09 |
Kilos | hehe | 07:09 |
Kilos | it must be disconnected for posting because the refresh works | 07:10 |
nlsthzn | Problem with many services like twitter is they change there API and ways to authenticate on a whim then all apps have to scramble to change :/ | 07:10 |
Kilos | oh | 07:10 |
Kilos | so then its a job for the gnome peeps | 07:11 |
Kilos | nlsthzn, i went to #gnome and left a post there | 07:14 |
Kilos | but dunno if they gonna reply | 07:14 |
Kilos | ubuntu-za seems to be the friendliest irc channel | 07:15 |
nlsthzn | Kilos, well I installed it... now I will wait 5 minutes and see if it updates... | 07:15 |
nlsthzn | then I will try and post... | 07:15 |
nlsthzn | Afrikaners is plesierig | 07:15 |
Kilos | hee hee | 07:15 |
nlsthzn | I made the mistake the minimize gtwitter... now it is gone>! | 07:21 |
nlsthzn | ?! | 07:21 |
Kilos | lol | 07:22 |
Kilos | open again in terminal | 07:22 |
Kilos | i did that too | 07:22 |
Kilos | hee hee hee | 07:22 |
Kilos | i rebooted | 07:22 |
nlsthzn | Then it says connection failed | 07:23 |
nlsthzn | bad application is bad... | 07:23 |
nlsthzn | installing it added 7 packages... removing it only removes one... | 07:24 |
nlsthzn | oh well | 07:24 |
Kilos | lol | 07:24 |
nlsthzn | can always do with more mono libraries | 07:24 |
Kilos | i also dont let any internet app start on boot | 07:24 |
nlsthzn | Good idea with limited cap | 07:25 |
Kilos | purge | 07:25 |
nlsthzn | autoremove ;) | 07:25 |
Kilos | gtwitter is actually letting posts in but doesnt show when | 07:29 |
Kilos | Just watching Guide To The Good Life. Typical thing a 15 year old does on a Saturday. | 07:29 |
Kilos | thats from some chick | 07:29 |
nlsthzn | lol... | 07:33 |
Kilos | maybe its one of those apps you first have to go register att | 07:35 |
Kilos | before you can post | 07:37 |
nlsthzn | Nah... as soon as you have a twitter account it should work (but I think for it to work properly it will be about the same data usage as gwibber) | 07:38 |
nlsthzn | I am getting to tired to think straight now... going to be back later... good luck Uncle Kilos | 07:38 |
Kilos | ty nlsthzn go sleep lad | 07:39 |
Kilos | Your client does not have permission to get URL /p/gtwitter/ from this server. That’s all we know. | 07:41 |
Kilos | hehe | 07:41 |

nlsthzn | cool | 15:04 |
Kilos | but the pc went into that strange tiny font boot mode for some reason and now i did a rsync from backup and all looks good again | 15:05 |
Kilos | only i lost everything we said today here | 15:05 |
Kilos | hehe | 15:05 |
Kilos | got another stupid prob though. i used another drive as boot and did gparted to name my 40g free space as storage and now when i boot it has probs seeing it but once booted it is there in places a storage and i can maount without probs | 15:09 |
Kilos | but when booting i gotta tell it ss to skip looking for it | 15:10 |
Kilos | s | 15:10 |
Kilos | not ss | 15:10 |
nlsthzn | you can have a look at eh /etc/fstab file... this is where you put all drives to mount... | 15:32 |
nlsthzn | Kilos, ^^ | 15:32 |
Kilos | ty nlsthzn will do | 15:32 |
Kilos | it shows there | 15:35 |
Kilos | # /storage was on /dev/sda8 during installation | 15:35 |
Kilos | UUID=8dec497d-6b55-46c8-abcb-185ca9398a72 /storage ext4 defaults 0 2 | 15:35 |
Kilos | maybe the uuid is wrong or something i will look for them commands and try see wassup | 15:35 |
Kilos | its not serious though , i hit s and it boots | 15:37 |
nlsthzn | cool... in the LPI study guide they have all the commands to-do with UUID's etc (I should know them by now but I can't remember them :/) | 15:40 |
Kilos | hehe. i think i got it all saved on external un apie commands | 15:40 |
nlsthzn | :) | 15:42 |
Kilos | lol | 15:43 |
inetpro | Kilos: I would suggest you simply use the mobile version of twitter directly in your browser https://mobile.twitter.com/ | 16:16 |
Kilos | on my pc inetpro | 16:16 |
Kilos | i have lost that link you gave | 16:16 |
Kilos | oh i see | 16:16 |
Kilos | ty sir | 16:16 |
inetpro | any client software will have constant communication going in the background in order to look for new updates | 16:17 |
Kilos | ah ty | 16:18 |
Kilos | gwibber was killing me | 16:18 |
Kilos | i tried fro elinks but couldnt type in the username and password so dunno where i went wrong there | 16:19 |
inetpro | just use chromium | 16:21 |
inetpro | or firefox | 16:21 |
Kilos | will do ty | 16:21 |
Kilos | epiphany works | 16:22 |
inetpro | should not eat to much if you stick to basics | 16:22 |
inetpro | or even epiphany | 16:22 |
Kilos | hehe | 16:22 |
Kilos | dunno what happened to corrie | 16:24 |
Kilos | he didnt even answer me | 16:24 |
Kilos | grrrr | 16:24 |
inetpro | Kilos: he's on holiday in the UK | 16:24 |
Kilos | ya but he asked who is tara | 16:24 |
inetpro | well I guess he is a popular man and has many tweets to answer | 16:26 |
Kilos | lol | 16:26 |
inetpro | Kilos: I see others also asking "Does @corrie206 still tweet?" | 16:28 |
Kilos | yeah looks like he stopped this morning | 16:28 |
Kilos | i only see you few guys i follow | 16:28 |
inetpro | obviously | 16:29 |
inetpro | that is how it works | 16:29 |
Kilos | oh | 16:29 |
inetpro | Kilos: but you can do a search to see others | 16:30 |
inetpro | like https://mobile.twitter.com/searches?q=corrie206 | 16:30 |
Kilos | no he will surely get those messages when he goes online again | 16:31 |
Kilos | maybe he found an engelsman that doesnt talk too much | 16:31 |
inetpro | Kilos: he has 1,880 Following and 1,125 Followers | 16:32 |
Kilos | sjoe\ | 16:32 |
Kilos | browser eat data too | 16:33 |
Kilos | 1m already | 16:33 |
Kilos | i watch everything | 16:33 |
Kilos | must be all you guys profile pics | 16:34 |
inetpro | Kilos: you can always try to reduce it by not displaying the images | 16:34 |
Kilos | in settings? | 16:35 |
Kilos | didnt see it | 16:35 |
inetpro | not sure where you will find that option these days but a few years back I used to do that | 16:36 |
Kilos | ah | 16:36 |
inetpro | in firefox On your toolbar, click on Tools, then select Options, then select Content from the top bar. Uncheck the box that says load images automatically. | 16:37 |
Kilos | ok will try the fox next time | 16:38 |
Tonberry | try the imglikeopera firefox addon | 16:38 |
Tonberry | it allows you to easily set image loading settings per tab | 16:39 |
Kilos | will do ty Tonberry | 16:39 |
Kilos | next time i use the fox | 16:39 |
Tonberry | it makes gprs tolerable | 16:39 |
inetpro | firefox is to me still the most flexible browser | 16:41 |
inetpro | so many extensions that you can load for just about any purpose you can think off | 16:42 |
inetpro | to save bandwidth you can load the following | 16:43 |
inetpro | Flashblock, Blocks Flash so it won’t get in your way, but if you want to see it, just click on it. https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/433/ | 16:43 |
inetpro | ImgLikeOpera, ImgLikeOpera allows load only the images that you want in Firefox browser. https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1672/ | 16:43 |
inetpro | NoScript, This extension allows JavaScript, Java and other executable content to run only from trusted domains of your choice. https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/722/ | 16:44 |
inetpro | AdBlockPlus, Ever been annoyed by all those ads and banners on the internet that often take longer to download than everything else on the page https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1865/ | 16:44 |
inetpro | plus it's companions like Adblock Filterset.G Updater, etc | 16:45 |
Tonberry | mmm, never tried noscript | 16:45 |
* inetpro has NoScript on by default | 16:45 | |
Kilos | what does noscript do? | 16:46 |
inetpro | Kilos: many/most pages these days have javascript and other excutable code that runs after you opened the page | 16:47 |
Kilos | and those moving pics and things | 16:48 |
inetpro | the code is typically stored in separate files which are downloaded automagically | 16:48 |
Kilos | will they be blocked as well | 16:48 |
inetpro | NoScript will even stop the browser from downloading the stuff | 16:48 |
inetpro | then you have the option to whitelist a site | 16:49 |
inetpro | which will then obviously download the code and run it | 16:49 |
Kilos | ah that sounds great ty | 16:49 |
inetpro | it's mostly for fancy menus but there's lot's of other fancy stuff these days | 16:50 |
inetpro | many sites are simply not usable without the scripts | 16:51 |
Kilos | i actually just wanted to go twitter and fb to follow taras stuff but think she popular enough now | 16:51 |
inetpro | Kilos: oh and many web developers simply forget about the blind or the deaf who can no longer use these fancy websites | 16:57 |
Kilos | lol | 16:57 |
Kilos | or the aged | 16:57 |
Kilos | the youthfully handicapped | 16:58 |
* inetpro wbb | 17:02 | |
* inetpro is back | 17:49 | |
Kilos | wb | 17:50 |
superfly | Kilos: if you didn't chat so much in IRC, you'd have more bandwidth! :-P | 17:51 |
Kilos | hee hee | 17:52 |
Kilos | you chasing me superfly | 17:52 |
inetpro | heh superfly, that is out of line :-P | 17:53 |
Kilos | nee man inetpro | 17:53 |
superfly | inetpro: yes, well, you don't talk enough! so there! :-P | 17:53 |
inetpro | hmm... | 17:54 |
Kilos | ha ha ha | 17:54 |
superfly | still no sign of my grass :-( | 17:54 |
inetpro | superfly: grass? | 17:54 |
Kilos | green stuff | 17:54 |
Kilos | mowed once a week | 17:54 |
superfly | inetpro: yeah, we got a dog, so she chased the cats, and tore up the lawn.... now we just have sand | 17:55 |
Kilos | lol | 17:55 |
superfly | so I bought some lawn seed, and closed off a section of the "lawn" and planted my lawn seed. | 17:56 |
Kilos | get a bag of LAN sprinkle and water well | 17:56 |
Kilos | KAN in die taal | 17:56 |
Kilos | oh i see its new seed you waiting for to germinate | 17:57 |
superfly | Kilos: yes | 17:57 |
Kilos | eish | 17:57 |
inetpro | Kilos: LAN = Local Area Network | 17:57 |
superfly | planted it last saturday, it's supposed to show up any time from today onward | 17:57 |
Kilos | limestone ammonium nitrate | 17:57 |
inetpro | :-) | 17:58 |
Kilos | hehe | 17:58 |
superfly | Kilos: will that help it grow? | 17:59 |
Kilos | once it is already growing you can sprinkle on | 17:59 |
Kilos | and once going well you will mow twice a week | 17:59 |
Kilos | nitrate is same as what rain puts in | 18:00 |
superfly | You know, I'm slapping myself here... why didn't I come and ask oom Kilos in the first place?! | 18:00 |
Kilos | lol | 18:00 |
Kilos | nitrogen\ | 18:00 |
superfly | Kilos: you're not dom, I am! | 18:00 |
Kilos | makes everything grow faster | 18:00 |
inetpro | Kilos: how do we ask Maaz to give him a klap? | 18:00 |
Kilos | lol | 18:01 |
Kilos | Maaz, hit superfly | 18:01 |
Maaz | Kilos: Excuse me? | 18:01 |
Kilos | aw | 18:01 |
Kilos | stupid bot | 18:01 |
inetpro | :me lol | 18:01 |
Kilos | Maaz, slap superfly | 18:01 |
Maaz | Kilos: Sorry... | 18:01 |
Kilos | hmmm | 18:01 |
superfly | Kilos: is it ok if any of the animals eat the nitrate by mistake? or should I keep Zak inside? | 18:02 |
inetpro | superfly: I don't think they will eat the stuff | 18:03 |
Kilos | keep zak in and it disolves fairly quickly so water till its gone | 18:03 |
superfly | ah, OK | 18:04 |
superfly | see, us geeks don't know this stuff, that's why we need oom Kilos around | 18:04 |
Kilos | but not too strong on new plantings as it is quite potent | 18:04 |
Kilos | lol | 18:04 |
inetpro | Kilos: is LAN like Ureum? | 18:04 |
Kilos | ureum is stronger | 18:05 |
Kilos | like pure nitrogen | 18:05 |
Kilos | lan has limestone added so peeps cant make bombs with it | 18:06 |
inetpro | on the farm we used ureum quite often | 18:06 |
inetpro | very good for maize | 18:06 |
inetpro | very potent | 18:06 |
Kilos | yeah urea is the pure potent form but can burn plants dead if not watered in properly | 18:06 |
inetpro | yep | 18:07 |
Kilos | its same as brandy or brandy and coke | 18:07 |
Kilos | end result is the same. but one takes longer | 18:08 |
inetpro | Kilos: eish, we have kids in the channel | 18:08 |
Kilos | oops | 18:08 |
Kilos | only Tonberry | 18:09 |
Kilos | and he is going uncapped so will need every cent for data | 18:09 |
inetpro | hmm... can Maaz tell is his age? | 18:10 |
inetpro | tell us* | 18:10 |
Kilos | Tonberry, ping | 18:11 |
Kilos | look in his facebook profile | 18:11 |
inetpro | Kilos: you still using facebook? | 18:13 |
Kilos | must have one somewhere. if he dont hide his info like some do | 18:13 |
inetpro | there goes all your bw | 18:13 |

Kilos | yeah i hate fb | 18:14 |
inetpro | no wonder your gwibber is so hungry | 18:14 |
Kilos | but thats where the kid was before i got her to go twitter | 18:14 |
Kilos | lol | 18:14 |
Kilos | i have purged gwibber now | 18:15 |

Kilos | you younger than my daughter who is 10 years younger than my son | 18:20 |
Tonberry | o0 | 18:20 |
inetpro | lol | 18:20 |
Kilos | i think it is acceptable to call someone kid if they more than 10 years younger than you isnt it | 18:21 |
Kilos | like the oom thing | 18:21 |
inetpro | Kilos: eish, too many to count | 18:21 |

Kilos | some other peeps uploaded the song to other servers or something and so far there has been a total of 175 000 views at them all | 18:23 |
