| charlvn | good morning | 07:04 |

| HawkiesZA | Good? | 07:05 |
| charlvn | Maaz: coffee aub | 07:26 |
| Maaz | charlvn: Sorry... | 07:26 |
| charlvn | Maaz: coffee please | 07:26 |
| Maaz | charlvn: There isn't a pot on | 07:26 |
| charlvn | Maaz: you suck | 07:26 |
| Maaz | charlvn: Huh? | 07:26 |
| charlvn | Maaz: coffee on | 07:26 |
| * Maaz flips the salt-timer | 07:26 | |
| charlvn | that's better :) | 07:26 |
| Maaz | Coffee's ready for charlvn! | 07:30 |
| * mazal needs a Maaz in his office :) | 07:31 | |
| charlvn | Maaz: coffee please | 07:31 |
| Maaz | charlvn: There isn't a pot on | 07:31 |
| charlvn | lol dunno how this works but ok | 07:32 |
| charlvn | mazal: i could think of better maids than maaz http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maid_caf%C3%A9 | 07:32 |
| NeVeR_ | jeez mIRC is crap O_o just freakn times out and falls over | 09:17 |

| NeVeR_ | Everyone liking 12.04? | 09:22 |
| Squirm | haven't tried it | 09:26 |
| NeVeR_ | 4real? | 09:26 |
| NeVeR_ | my stack is very stable | 09:27 |
| charlvn | NeVeR_: i used mirc for years, never had that experience myself, perhaps it's just the new versions | 09:27 |
| NeVeR_ | been using it since beta 2.. no problems so far | 09:27 |
| charlvn | NeVeR_: but yes, liking 12.04, i am having some issues with gnome3 though | 09:28 |
| NeVeR_ | probably new versions lol... Im using 7.12 or something | 09:28 |
| charlvn | getting a bunch of crashes and error reports and stuff of some of the components | 09:28 |
| NeVeR_ | I haven't tried ubuntu desktop.. only server :| | 09:28 |
| NeVeR_ | well 12.04 | 09:28 |
| charlvn | only real trouble i have with stuff crashing on a regular basis are desktop components, rarely server components | 09:28 |
| charlvn | although my server is still running on 11.10 | 09:29 |
| charlvn | don't have much need to upgrade it yet but will probably soon | 09:29 |
| NeVeR_ | I upgraded all my servers :) it was so painless :D Only thing that I had trouble with was going from dovecot 1 to dovecot 2 | 09:30 |
| NeVeR_ | couldn't find any documentatio | 09:30 |
| NeVeR_ | couldn't find any documentation | 09:30 |
| charlvn | yeah i don't use dovecot, i use mutt directly on the server | 09:30 |
| charlvn | i used dovecot back in 2005/2006, quite a nice application | 09:31 |
| Symmetria | mmm | 09:32 |
| Symmetria | if anyone is in joburg and needs a hotel | 09:32 |
| NeVeR_ | i use dovecot + postfix | 09:32 |
| Symmetria | the sandton towers intercontinental can be recommended | 09:32 |
| Symmetria | god thats a nice hotel to stay in | 09:32 |
| NeVeR_ | lol expensive? | 09:32 |
| charlvn | Symmetria: i bet... and expensive :) | 09:32 |
| Symmetria | charlvn *shrug* all gets billed back to the clients anyway | 09:33 |
| charlvn | lol nice | 09:33 |
| charlvn | NeVeR_: yeah postfix+mutt here | 09:33 |
| Symmetria | charlvn heh, as a private contractor, those things are also tax deductable | 09:34 |
| Symmetria | and the more shit I can rack up to write off to tax the better, I pay enough tax as it is :p | 09:34 |
| charlvn | Symmetria: that's true | 09:34 |
| charlvn | i used to work as a contractor as well | 09:34 |
| charlvn | with all the deductions i ended up saving a lot of money | 09:34 |
| Symmetria | lol, a while back my accountant warned me I was gonna have a huge tax bill if I didnt find something to write off | 09:34 |
| charlvn | then you can even go a step up, don't live in any particular country for too long, and not pay tax at all | 09:35 |
| Symmetria | so I upgraded a flight from london to south africa from economy to first class | 09:35 |
| Symmetria | and wrote the upgrade cost off, business expense | 09:35 |
| Symmetria | (which it was a business trip) | 09:35 |
| Symmetria | lol, 3 thousand GBP write off :p | 09:35 |
| charlvn | yeah totally, good thinking | 09:35 |
| charlvn | nice | 09:35 |
| Symmetria | heh, the contracting market that Im working in right now is fantastic though | 09:35 |
| Symmetria | Ive gotta make a choice, either start turning away work, or form a full company and hire staff | 09:36 |
| charlvn | if you don't mind traveling, it's the way to work in ict honestly | 09:36 |
| Symmetria | cause there is way more work than I can actually do out there | 09:36 |
| charlvn | i just got tired of all the traveling eventually | 09:36 |
| Symmetria | charlvn well, most of my work I can do remotely, though I do also travel extensively for one of my clients | 09:36 |
| charlvn | that's true but once you start a company and hire staff, you start becoming a manager and have all of that to deal with | 09:37 |
| Symmetria | heh, so far this year its been london, germany, norway, iceland, senegal, gambia, uganda | 09:37 |
| charlvn | not bad | 09:37 |
| Symmetria | lisbon, dubai, nairobi and dar es salaam still left for the year | 09:37 |
| NeVeR_ | jeez | 09:37 |
| charlvn | sheesh | 09:37 |
| HawkiesZA | Share the love? | 09:37 |
| Symmetria | charlvn heh yeah, and the simple fact is I dont really need to make any more money than I do, which is the only reason to open a company | 09:38 |
| charlvn | one upside... you get to see the world that way :) | 09:38 |
| charlvn | yeah exactly | 09:38 |
| Symmetria | I mean, the money in the network consultancy market at the moment in africa is beyond insane, I have no idea why ANYONE would emigrate | 09:38 |
| NeVeR_ | I went to Amsterdam once on company expense... won a trip for "Most positive employee"... I dont even know how that happened... don | 09:38 |
| NeVeR_ | dont remember being positive at work ever | 09:38 |
| charlvn | lol | 09:38 |
| charlvn | maybe it's just because you weren't negative all the time :) | 09:38 |
| NeVeR_ | lol | 09:39 |
| Symmetria | its relatively easy to make R250k a month in africa working in network consultancy at the moment | 09:39 |
| NeVeR_ | R250k a month?! WTF? | 09:39 |
| charlvn | that's quite heavy | 09:39 |
| NeVeR_ | I dont even earn a 10th of that a month :\ | 09:39 |
| * HawkiesZA has a coughing fit | 09:39 | |
| Symmetria | *shrug* its around $200 an hour, 8 hours a day, 22 days a month | 09:40 |
| Symmetria | at current exchange rate its around R281k a month :p | 09:40 |
| HawkiesZA | The trick is to get paid in dollars | 09:40 |
| Symmetria | heh hawkies I only bill in dollars | 09:40 |
| charlvn | i guess it does make sense | 09:40 |
| Symmetria | even to my south african clients | 09:40 |
| HawkiesZA | Better to do it that way | 09:41 |
| charlvn | yeah the currencies fluctuate so much these days | 09:41 |
| HawkiesZA | They'd be shocked to see what it is in ZAR | 09:41 |
| charlvn | might as well standardise on a major currency | 09:41 |
| charlvn | good point HawkiesZA | 09:41 |
| Symmetria | *shrug* the best part of all of this is that I would say 70% of my work I can do from a notebook in a deckchair on the beach :p | 09:41 |
| Symmetria | HawkiesZA actually, Ive found that corporate clients like big bills, it gives them this wierd sense of security | 09:41 |
| charlvn | that's very true | 09:42 |
| Symmetria | if you underbill they think they need to find someone more expensive because more expensive MUST mean better :p | 09:42 |
| charlvn | i found that as well | 09:42 |
| charlvn | if you pay for a consultant they better be expensive | 09:42 |
| HawkiesZA | Do they also have a preference for oddly-numbered bills? | 09:42 |
| HawkiesZA | Instead of just $1000 you make it $1052.89 or something | 09:42 |
| charlvn | heh then it looks more accurate and not like you're just taking them for money | 09:43 |
| HawkiesZA | Make it look like you did the maffs | 09:43 |
| Symmetria | heh hawkies, that I dont do, I charge $200 an hour, no partial hours :p | 09:43 |
| charlvn | it looks like you genuinely worked it out | 09:43 |
| Symmetria | and thats explicitly stated | 09:43 |
| HawkiesZA | ah, ok | 09:43 |
| HawkiesZA | Fair enough | 09:43 |
| Symmetria | (when I say no partial hours though, its a daily roundup, so if I do 30 minutes for you today its 1 hour, if I do 3 30 minute segments spread over teh day, its 2 hours for the day) | 09:44 |
| Symmetria | my billing system does auto roundup per client to nearest hour at the end of each day | 09:44 |
| charlvn | good system | 09:44 |
| Symmetria | btw, if anyone is ever staying in bloemfontein (though why anyone would be doing that, I dont know, but I found myself with a client there) | 09:45 |
| charlvn | lol | 09:45 |
| Symmetria | the windmill hotel and casino = nice hotel, and if you have a sun international mvg card, you get HUGE discounts on the hotel | 09:45 |
| Symmetria | it becomes the cheapest 5 star hotel in the country if you have that mvg card :p | 09:45 |
| Symmetria | like 600 bux a night | 09:45 |
| Symmetria | lol | 09:45 |
| charlvn | 600 ZAR? | 09:46 |
| charlvn | that's not bad at all | 09:46 |
| HawkiesZA | For 5 stars? Bargain | 09:47 |
| charlvn | yeah no kidding | 09:47 |
| Symmetria | heh, its better than the 4.5k for the hotel in joburg | 09:52 |
| charlvn | ouch | 09:56 |
| Symmetria | lol but *shrug* if Im on the road and travelling, I need comfort to at least get some rest | 09:56 |
| charlvn | that's very true | 09:59 |
| NeVeR_ | lol | 10:20 |
| NeVeR_ | how do you get into network consultency? | 10:49 |
| NeVeR_ | tancy8 | 10:49 |
| NeVeR_ | 8 | 10:50 |
| NeVeR_ | * | 10:50 |
| NeVeR_ | shift R broken | 10:50 |
| Banlam | at least now we know why internet costs in SA are so high :P | 10:50 |
| NeVeR_ | :P | 10:51 |
| NeVeR_ | sorry | 10:51 |
| NeVeR_ | These damn British Network Consultants are making it too high :( fml | 10:51 |
| charlvn | NeVeR_: the key is to specialise and then it's all about having the right reputation and connections | 11:43 |
| charlvn | Banlam: yup | 11:43 |
| NeVeR_ | I wouldn't even know where to start :P I think I | 11:45 |
| NeVeR_ | I think I should hit the books | 11:46 |
| NeVeR_ | I reckon the only way I'll make it is to get some qualifications... Its impossible to get a name working where I currently am | 11:46 |
| charlvn | in ict experience > qualifications | 11:47 |
| charlvn | i have no qualifications other than a b.sc. | 11:49 |
| NeVeR_ | I have 5 years experience as a System Administrator, no one wants to hire me | 11:49 |
| NeVeR_ | I have no qualifications | 11:50 |
| NeVeR_ | I have matrix | 11:50 |
| NeVeR_ | I have matric | 11:50 |
| NeVeR_ | rofl | 11:50 |
| NeVeR_ | matrix :P | 11:50 |
| charlvn | neo? | 11:50 |
| charlvn | :D | 11:50 |
| charlvn | i can haz teh matrix | 11:50 |
| HawkiesZA | Was about to say...Matrix....Daum, you're 1337 | 11:50 |
| charlvn | yup | 11:50 |
| charlvn | if your work bores you, you need a personal project | 11:51 |
| HawkiesZA | Mine is watching all the series | 11:51 |
| charlvn | my hobby is watching anime series | 11:52 |
| charlvn | and learning japanese | 11:52 |
| HawkiesZA | That sounds like fun | 11:52 |
| charlvn | and talk to people on irc :P | 11:52 |
| HawkiesZA | I want to learn a third language | 11:52 |
| HawkiesZA | How do you go about learning Japanese? | 11:53 |
| charlvn | but then i also do a lot of crap with *nix and ipv6 and python and sometimes java in my spare time | 11:53 |
| charlvn | HawkiesZA: watch a lot of anime, subtitled not dubbed | 11:53 |
| charlvn | then look up words you don't know | 11:53 |
| charlvn | slowly you start learning the words, what they mean, and how they are used | 11:53 |
| charlvn | better than learning japanese from the text book because then you don't learn how it's used in normal everyday speech | 11:53 |
| charlvn | the phrasing, expressions, etc in japanese are totally different than western languages | 11:54 |
| charlvn | you don't get that stuff from the book | 11:54 |
| HawkiesZA | I see | 11:54 |
| charlvn | one simple example is words like "des" and "mas" | 11:54 |
| charlvn | they don't translate | 11:54 |
| HawkiesZA | Suggestions for decent Anime? I haven't watched in years :/ | 11:54 |
| charlvn | ghost in a shell, haruhi suzuima, macross zero, macross frontier | 11:55 |
| charlvn | those are all classics | 11:55 |
| charlvn | working! is also very good | 11:55 |
| charlvn | baby please kill me is also good | 11:55 |
| NeVeR_ | I've only watched Ghost in a shell | 11:55 |
| charlvn | i'm following acchi kocchi atm | 11:55 |
| charlvn | lucky star is another classic | 11:56 |
| * HawkiesZA takes notes | 11:57 | |
| charlvn | mawaru penguindrum also recommended | 11:57 |
| charlvn | i could carry on | 11:57 |
| charlvn | bbl | 12:00 |
| * superfly has no time for watching series, he has open source projects to work on | 12:04 | |
| HawkiesZA | superfly is a better man than I | 12:05 |
| superfly | HawkiesZA: it's all about priorities | 12:05 |
| superfly | Oh, and I refuse to be a pirate. | 12:05 |
| mazal | Hayes of to you superfly , didn't think there are any left ;-) | 12:06 |
| mazal | Hates even | 12:06 |
| mazal | Hats even | 12:06 |
| mazal | boy I must be tired | 12:06 |
| charlvn | superfly: that's good, what are you working on atm? | 12:07 |
| superfly | charlvn: My big open source app is one called OpenLP | 12:11 |
| superfly | I have a couple of others, but I don't usually have much time for them | 12:12 |
| charlvn | ah ok, nice | 12:14 |
| charlvn | that's the problem, i program the whole day for work | 12:14 |
| charlvn | then i don't have too much energy left for too many serious side projects outside of that | 12:14 |
| charlvn | if i do get some time i just do some random research & development to stay up to date | 12:14 |
| Symmetria | damn! I thought I was expensive, I phoned my accountant to get one certified letter saying certain things which I dictated them, and they charged me R750 for a letter | 12:25 |
| NeVeR_ | R750 for a letter? ffffff!@!%%% | 12:26 |
| NeVeR_ | if it took them 30 minutes to type out and sign then they are on par with u :P | 12:27 |
| Symmetria | lol no they would still be cheaper :P but it couldnt have taken them more than 15 minutes which makes them slightly more expensive :p | 12:29 |
| Symmetria | haha I have no issues charging my rates, I have definate issues paying them | 12:29 |
| Symmetria | haha | 12:29 |
| charlvn | yeah that's typical :P | 12:30 |
| charlvn | Symmetria: http://i.imgur.com/JttmE.png | 12:31 |
| NeVeR_ | rofl | 12:38 |
| Kerbero | lol | 12:39 |
| Symmetria | http://perplexa.be/foto.jpg <=== lol, a friend of mine in a bit of crap | 12:50 |
| Symmetria | :p | 12:50 |
| Kerbero | wow | 12:56 |
| Kerbero | but that is stupid | 12:56 |
| Kerbero | seeing as the speed limits are only in certain parts | 12:57 |
| Kerbero | so if you miss the sign that can happen quite easily | 12:57 |
| * Kerbero is glad to see it is an audi | 12:57 | |
| charlvn | yeah but seriously, 208kmph? | 13:00 |
| Kerbero | not that fast | 13:00 |
| Kerbero | it is the autobahn... | 13:00 |
| NeVeR_ | I do more than that on a daily basis :? | 13:00 |
| NeVeR_ | Only been arrested once | 13:00 |
| Kerbero | good | 13:00 |
| charlvn | no seriously | 13:01 |
| charlvn | yeah there are some roads where you can do it (in germany) | 13:01 |
| NeVeR_ | I have a CBR600rr | 13:01 |
| charlvn | but that's FAST | 13:01 |
| NeVeR_ | 0-200 in under 20s | 13:01 |
| HawkiesZA | 208 on a CBR600? nah | 13:01 |
| charlvn | 135kmph was the limit on that road | 13:01 |
| charlvn | if you go 140 or even 150 but you go more than 200 you're being an asshole | 13:02 |
| NeVeR_ | my bike is limited at 260kmph | 13:02 |
| NeVeR_ | my gf's is limited at 300KM/h | 13:02 |
| NeVeR_ | :| | 13:03 |
| HawkiesZA | haha | 13:03 |
| NeVeR_ | her bike is on my name | 13:03 |
| NeVeR_ | I get all the fines :( | 13:03 |
| HawkiesZA | Hopefully not all the demerits | 13:03 |
| NeVeR_ | Lol there are no demerits yet.. I had to go to court the other day, R1500 fine for 122 in a 80 zone :\ she did pay for it | 13:04 |
| charlvn | i wonder who was with that guy in the car... there is a white square | 13:05 |
| charlvn | i wonder if that was done by the guy who uploaded it or by the government | 13:05 |
| Kerbero | the white squire is the driver | 13:05 |
| Kerbero | ua | 13:06 |
| charlvn | because i know sometimes they do it because guys get caught for cheating on their wives like this | 13:06 |
| Kerbero | lol | 13:06 |
| charlvn | bull that is not the driver | 13:06 |
| charlvn | that is the passenger | 13:06 |
| Kerbero | hehe | 13:06 |
| Kerbero | true | 13:06 |
| Kerbero | so the driver is not even looking at the road | 13:06 |
| charlvn | the driver seems to be looking at the road | 13:07 |
| charlvn | he is looking dead right in front of him no? | 13:07 |
| charlvn | heh his number plate reads 666 | 13:08 |
| charlvn | the beast checking in | 13:08 |
| NeVeR_ | lol | 13:09 |
| Symmetria | heh | 13:12 |
| Symmetria | 208 isnt that bad | 13:12 |
| Symmetria | I've done *WAY* more than that on the bloem -> east london stretch | 13:12 |
| Symmetria | heh, still not close to what I've done on that road through namibia to the border though | 13:13 |
| charlvn | phew | 13:17 |
| charlvn | you people are maniacs | 13:17 |
| charlvn | it's people like you why i don't like to drive :P | 13:17 |
| charlvn | i rather use public transport | 13:17 |
| Kerbero | in europe i always use public transport | 13:18 |
| Kerbero | but in SA not | 13:18 |
| charlvn | well in .za there is no public transport | 13:18 |
| Kerbero | exactly | 13:18 |
| charlvn | other than a minibus taxi and who wants to use that | 13:18 |
| NeVeR_ | I've never used one :O | 13:26 |
| NeVeR_ | thought about it... would cost me R12/day to get to work and back instead of R50 a day | 13:27 |
| NeVeR_ | then again I can't handle traffic in my own car.. being in traffic in a taxi would kill me | 13:27 |
| charlvn | yup | 13:41 |
| NeVeR_ | cheers everyone | 13:47 |
| Kilos | afternoon everyone | 14:19 |

| not_found | trying to make bastion work in Ubuntu but the game crashes everytime I move the mouse " | 17:54 |
| Kilos | psydroid, ubuntu-za@lists.ubuntu.com | 17:54 |
| psydroid | oh, I found out today that Kubuntu 12.04 prereleases worked fine on Nvidia hardware, but the release is a disaster | 17:55 |
| Kilos | oh not_found thats not serious sukkeling | 17:55 |
| Kilos | haha Banlam | 17:55 |
| psydroid | Kilos, thanks | 17:55 |
| psydroid | I should subscribe to the Dutch list too, finally | 17:56 |
| psydroid | and a few other ones | 17:56 |
| not_found | lol... sukkel bly sukkel... oh and my current ubuntu install is working to well.. starting to get these cravings to distro hop again :/ | 17:56 |
| Kilos | psydroid, i forget how to actually join | 17:56 |
| Banlam | bastio is fun :) | 17:56 |
| not_found | Banlam, I would like to try it :( | 17:57 |
| psydroid | Kilos, it's ok, I will figure it out | 17:57 |
| Kilos | haha not_found you using 12.04 in unity | 17:57 |
| not_found | yes uncle Kilos | 17:57 |
| psydroid | but have none of you had major graphics problems with the latest ubuntu? | 17:57 |
| Kilos | i looked at the guide. i might be able to get used to unity | 17:57 |
| psydroid | it looks like 3d acceleration does not function at all, everything feels so slow | 17:58 |
| not_found | flying on my system... Unity 5 is quick... | 17:58 |
| psydroid | on nvidia with nouveau it's even unuseable | 17:58 |
| psydroid | hmm, ok | 17:59 |
| psydroid | I am running kubuntu here, though | 17:59 |
| psydroid | I will install ubuntu alongside and see how it works | 17:59 |
| psydroid | I have radeonhd 4200 graphics in my desktop, it should fly | 18:00 |
| not_found | the open source drivers are a joke :\ | 18:01 |
| Kilos | then talk to the kubuntu guys | 18:01 |
| Kilos | superfly, and inetpro | 18:01 |
| Kilos | oh psydroid why i asked about our list i got a mail today about lpi stuff | 18:01 |
| psydroid | Kilos, oh yeah, I will join asap | 18:01 |
| psydroid | not_found, but they used to work fine, with the latest xorg in released kubuntu things started to go downhill | 18:02 |
| not_found | psydroid, I looked at the performance of them against the proprietary drivers and they suck in comparison... | 18:03 |
| psydroid | not_found, ah, I will try them if I get a chance, I am scared of the proprietary driver to be honest | 18:04 |
| psydroid | because the number of crashes they used to cause | 18:05 |
| psydroid | because of* | 18:05 |
| not_found | installing the one that is default selected when you look fer restricted drivers has worked well for me... | 18:06 |
| not_found | just check because AMD has dropped support for some older cards... | 18:06 |
| zeref | hmmm | 18:07 |
| psydroid | but with nvidia it has been a real problem, I can't even get as far as reaching the desktop | 18:09 |
| psydroid | but maybe a fresh install will solve this | 18:10 |
| psydroid | I will, maybe on a test install | 18:10 |
| not_found | I typically have to use nomodeset until I have the driver installed... then I had to override my screens eeid info as it was wrong... took some time but working like a charm now | 18:12 |
| psydroid | thanks, I will keep that in mind | 18:13 |
| psydroid | hopefully that will solve my issues with sluggishness | 18:13 |
