[00:06] popey; how's your microserver? Do you still like it? [12:55] Aloha everyone [14:03] MrChrisDruif: yes, my microserver is on all day, doing backups etc [14:03] Awesome, I'm looking at it's successor, the N40L [14:04] not seen the inside of that one, guess it's much the same? [14:04] slightly faster CPU? [14:04] Yup [14:05] not sure I'd see much benefit, mine is mostly IOWAIT [14:06] Also slightly larger default HDD [14:06] http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/us/en/sm/WF06b/15351-15351-4237916-4237918-4237917-4248009-5153252-5153253.html [14:07] And when they are similarly prices, I don't see a reason to take the newer one =) [14:07] DD not listed there... [14:07] DD? [14:07] HDD sorry [14:07] mine has a 160, not that it's used, its the root disk, all the data is on 4x2TB disks [14:07] In it's name it is luckily =) [14:07] ahhh [14:08] md0 : active raid10 sdc1[1] sdb1[2] sde1[0] sdd1[3] 3907023872 blocks 64K chunks 2 near-copies [4/4] [UUUU] [14:08] \o/ [14:09] /dev/mapper/data-data 2.9T 2.5T 250G 92% /srv [14:09] running low [14:09] Idling at 45W right? [14:09] And it has support for WOL I've read? [14:12] Ow, and twice the RAM of previous model [14:13] i upped mine to 8GB [14:13] Wow [14:13] dunno about WOL, mine is always on [14:13] In the blog-post about it it was mentioned in the comments ^_^ [14:14] s/the/your [14:15] cool [14:15] * popey checks his server on landscape.. see what it's been doing [14:18] http://popey.com/~alan/hp/load.png http://popey.com/~alan/hp/memory.png http://popey.com/~alan/hp/network.png busy busy busy! [14:19] Wednesday was busy on the network =P [14:20] yeah, i left a DVD in my desktop that day, and rsnapshot tried to back it up ☺ [14:21] Haha [14:22] 40% RAM...of 8GB? What kind of software are you running? =P [14:28] it's mostly just running rsync every 6 hours to backup lots of remote hosts [14:28] also runs get_iplayer to download lots of BBC telly [14:29] oh, and it runs yacy sometimes [14:29] yacy? [14:30] ya! yacy! [14:30] http://popey.mooo.com:8090/ [14:30] Ahh, P2P web search...is it any good? [14:33] And is using DejaDup a good option for backups compared to rsync? [14:39] i dont use dejadup on servers [14:39] i use rsnapshot [14:41] !rsync [14:41] rsync is a fast remote file copy and synchronization program - For more see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/rsync [14:41] !rsnapshot [14:41] Factoid 'rsnapshot' not found [14:55] rsnapshot wraps up rsync and makes it all a bit easier [14:56] Alright [15:04] http://developers.slashdot.org/story/11/12/18/1425230/canonical-to-remove-sun-java-from-repositories-users-machines [15:05] Yikes, I've got to hurry for my dinner! [15:05] AlanBell; https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2011-December/001528.html [15:06] aloha [15:06] Aloha czajkowski [15:08] MrChrisDruif: I know all about the background to it, the fact that it just hit slashdot is why I posted it here [15:08] They've discovered it in #ubuntu-offtopic as well...discussing it as we speak =P [15:58] popey; btw, great new Lens ;-) [16:02] funnily enough I was looking for a nice simple lens written in python without heaps of Canonical copyright statements all over it to base an OpenERP lens on [16:18] hm, maybe somebody should write an article explaining how to pin packages (to avoid that they disable all updates, as I see some commenters did just that)? [16:20] AlanBell: Canonical copyright statements don't have to be a problem, depending on the license? ;) [16:21] correct, any code will have a copyright statement for the author, but the license is all that matters for reuse [16:22] and depending on the license, you can even remove the copyright statement... [16:24] although, that might depend on certain national laws [16:24] yeah, I just wanted a totally empty framework [16:25] I guess the WTFPL is a good license for demo code (although some people might be offended by the "F" in its name) ;) [16:26] Doesn't it stand for "Friendly" then? [16:27] "do what the friendly you like license" [16:28] although, maybe the "Beerware License" is even better :P [17:20] Hmm, that little server I've seen is now about €200,-!! =D [17:23] * AlanBell is adapting the porn lens to search for customers and invoices in openERP [17:23] what could possibly go wrong [17:27] =o [17:30] I think nothing ^_^ [17:30] But I'm always optimistic =D [17:33] * JanC hasn't found any good use for lenses yet--unity's window/layer/whatever pops up way too slow for that... [17:52] Hmm...the credit on my bank account is positive enough that I'll order that MicroServer =D [18:16] yay MrChrisDruif [18:16] After I'll be toying with ideas I've had in my head for awhile ^_^ === huats_ is now known as huats [20:41] hmm, my openerp lens is kinda working, however you can filter your invoices by preferred gender and position [21:51] anyone visited akgraner 's g+ profile lately? https://plus.google.com/#107415582881714707533/posts [21:52] I never seen that number of games on one profile :P [21:53] i see no games [21:54] oh! [21:54] thats one game [21:54] and all on one day by the look of it [21:55] cityville bender? :) [21:55] yeah ☺ [21:55] "Testing gaming on Ubuntu" [21:56] sure, sure [21:57] not sure what I'm more excited about, packed for ireland for xmas hols, packed up for new apartment, or the fact that everytyhing is so tidy here now :D [21:57] czajkowski: hooray! :) [21:57] indeed [22:01] czajkowski: moving back to Ireland, or somewhere else in England? [22:02] mhall119: ireland xmas visit, moving to another part of London [22:02] right beside the london eye [22:02] soo pretty [22:02] nice [22:03] czajkowski: Nice! [22:03] I say 'nice', but I really can't fathom living in a big city [22:03] even if it is London [22:06] popey: jcastro makes an excellent point, would it be possible to get minecraft int the Sw centre? [22:08] no [22:08] we tried [22:08] :/ [22:08] why not? [22:08] that's a shame [22:08] license? [22:11] AIUI mojang are linux-unfriendly [22:11] and are very particular about how they get their revenue [22:11] i.e. you'll notice that minecraft isn't on steam [22:15] Does Minecraft even work with OpenJDK? [22:15] yes [22:15] of course [22:15] I thought it was recommended to use Sun JRE. I meant JRE not JDK. [22:15] thats something else entirely [22:15] you said 'does minecraft even work' which is separate from ' it was recommended' [22:16] mainerror: too many things do for no reason whatsoever [22:16] I'm not trying to defend the recommendation I was just wondering. [22:17] so we end up with people assuming it won't work and turning on the partner repo and jumping through hoops to install sun jdk and it actually "just works" on Ubuntu [22:18] but it isn't so easy to integrate stuff into unity [22:26] AlanBell: what do you mean? [22:30] popey; I've ordered it! [23:03] mhall119: as popey and aqarius were saying if you have a random executable thing and you run it, and it turns up in the launcher and you click on it and select "keep in launcher" it doesn't [23:17] AlanBell: sometimes it does ;) [23:39] MrChrisDruif: yay [23:39] popey; should be here this week ^_^
