c_smithbkerensa, happy birthday! :D01:16
bkerensac_smith: thanks02:54
bkerensaFYI Ubuntu Oregon ZNC Server is being upgraded to Ubuntu Server 12.04 Beta 2 (Instability may result but unlikely based my experience so far)02:54
c_smithbkerensa, then should I login to the Freenode server until the upgrade is done?02:57
bkerensac_smith: nah its currently happening right now02:58
bkerensawith any lucky it should occur transparently02:58
bkerensa:)02:58
bkerensaI will restart it during a non-peak hour at some point tomorrow perhaps 4am02:58
c_smithcool, then I take it the server will need to be restarted? or is that something that usually only needs to happen on PCs?02:58
bkerensac_smith: it will require a reboot ^02:59
bkerensabut I do my reboots usually between 2am - 4am PST02:59
c_smithcool, not likely going to be on tonight at that time, but come tomorrow, I will have an essay to do, and gotta do it before 8AM the next day, I hate essays....03:00
c_smithand it's a college argument essay.03:01
cy1I AM A GREAT AND EXTREMELY MODEST PERSON WHICH IS WHY YOU SHOULD PULL THAT STICK OUT YOUR ASS AND STOP BANNING ME FROM CAMPUS GROUNDS YOU ADMINISTRATIVE PRICK03:02
* cy1 clearly is going places03:03
c_smithwtf?03:03
cy1It's my college entrance essay, to wile them into accepting moi.03:03
c_smithcy1, not even sure what you are talking about.03:03
c_smithoh. I see.03:03
cy1college... argument essay? uh...03:04
bkerensaI am going to be without power almost all afternoon tomorrow03:04
bkerensa:(03:04
c_smiththat sucks,03:04
cy1:/03:04
bkerensahave a electrician swapping out every receptacle in our place03:04
bkerensaand the entire break box03:04
cy1Wow, what brought that on?03:04
bkerensaso... yeah Pac Power even has to turn off our pole power03:05
bkerensacy1: uhh I would call it having a landlord who has not done his duties over the years to maintain one of his properties03:05
bkerensaand our power happened to nuke out the other day03:05
cy1bkerensa: obviously all your fault somehow03:05
bkerensaelectrician came out and said lots of things were not up to code and had to be brought up to code ASAP to prevent a Arc from occuring in the walls and our place from burning to the ground03:06
bkerensa:D03:06
bkerensamy landlord then tried to play off the electricians comments as a option suggestion for improvements03:06
bkerensa:D03:06
bkerensaoptional*03:06
cy1c.C03:06
cy1see that's why the concept of land ownership is fundamentally absurd.03:07
bkerensaI told my landlord that the electrician said the place is not in compliance with code and could be condemned and shortly thereafter he authorized the electrician to carry out a full overhaul03:07
cy1because it's only jerks who get to own any of it!03:07
bkerensa:D03:07
bkerensalandlord then informed me he was doing this because "we are such good people"03:07
cy1And why did my server accidentally the everything D:<03:07
bkerensaepic fail03:07
bkerensa:P03:07
cy1Man I freaking hate Linux memory management.03:08
cy1I just have no luck w/ it.03:08
cy1Either my programs die because my arbitrary memory limit was too low, since there's no way to measure that stuff03:09
bkerensacy1: how much memory do you have?03:10
cy1or else I run a program that just reads files into a buffer giving up the buffer for garbage collection every time, and it consumes all memory and $computer freezes.03:10
cy1I dunno like 2 gigabytes.03:10
cy1Yeah a hard reset... feh.03:11
cy1At least I've got it mostly headless to start up.03:11
bkerensacy1: amd64 or i386?03:11
cy1bkerAMD03:12
cy1bkerensa: AMD03:12
bkerensaI have 6GB of DDR3 on amd64 and never really run into issues memory or CPU wise03:12
cy1I don't have 6GB of memory slots.03:12
bkerensaI see03:12
cy1Besides, more memory doesn't do anything if the kernel doesn't stop programs from consuming memory until it goes into a spinloop and dies.03:13
cy1They'll just eat that memory too.03:13
bkerensacy1: well I do crunching which is pretty memory and CPU intensive and memory management seems solid enough to manage that without lagging any other applications on my system03:14
cy1The fact that I can kill almost any Linux machine just by displaying the PNG of Doom and it's been that way for years, just irritates me to death.03:14
bkerensausually I'm crunching like 4 or five DC projects simultaneous03:14
cy1It's more in the lack of limits on memory acquisition then repeated memory use...03:15
* c_smith will go off to get something to eat since he forgot to eat dinner03:16
cy1I mean here's the program: http://pastebin.com/Pr3jsrXG03:17
cy1Clearly a very devious and unexpected application, not straightforward at all.03:17
bkerensac_smith:  I'm nuking znc real quick03:21
bkerensa:D03:21
bkerensa:D03:26
