Kilosguten tag mein herr's14:17
Kilosdunno how to sat that> herritjies14:18
charlKilos: herren14:21
charlanyway, how's it going?14:22
Kilosah ty14:22
Kiloswell ty and you charl 14:22
Kilosi see Audi clean up at Le Mans again14:23
charlnot bad14:23
charlmy head hurts from studying though14:23
Kilosoh my14:23
Kilosmine hurts from not being able to study14:24
Kilosare your eyes good lad?14:24
charlhmm that's quite the opposite problem14:24
charlfor long distance i have glasses because i am near-sighted14:24
charlbut unless i am driving i don't wear them14:24
Kilosah i use here on the pc and stronger ones for reading books14:25
charlactually quite a nice pair of glasses, they have the sun-protection layer as well so they double as sun glasses14:25
Kilosthats nice14:25
charlah i see, no i'm fortunate in that i don't have to wear them for computer or books14:25
Kiloshaha and with choqok not being able to size fonts i need pc glasses to type and reading to follow choqok14:26
charlah i see, never used choqok14:27
charllooks nice though, pity about the lack of font resizingt14:27
charlthat should become standard in all applications14:27
Kilosits actually quite a nice twitter tool apart from not working as it should in gnome14:27
Kilosbetter than gtwitter14:28
Kilosimho14:28
charlgtwitter sucks imho14:28
charlor was that another tool i am thinking about....14:28
charlthere was gwibber or something too14:28
Kilosgwibber isnt bad either but now i have twitter ubuntu-za in my pidgin then everything works14:28
charlah nice14:29
Kiloshaving learned the follow and unfollow commands help14:29
Kiloss14:29
charli friend of mine wrote a command-line twitter tool he maintained for some time14:30
charlbut i don't think he is still developing it14:30
Kilosi see some in synaptic14:30
charlyeah i'm sure there must be others as well14:30
Kilosbut now i will use pidgin where im at least at home14:30
Kilosyo sflr howzit14:31
charlhi sflr 14:31
Kilosmethinks the kde things arent too happy on gnome charl 14:32
Kilosquassel and konversation dont have sound here either14:32
Kilosbut i see one can do quassel without kde dependancies 14:33
charli haven't had too many issues myself (outside of kde applications basically looking pretty crap) inside gnome14:34
charlbut then i haven't used many recently14:34
charli used kate as my primary code editor for quite some time14:34
Kilosi think maybe its better to keep kde stuff on kde14:34
charlyeah that is probably true14:35
charli have anyway mostly converted to using command line applications instead14:35
Kilosbut kate is needed for somethings on gnome as well. i have kate but it was needed for something else14:35
Kilosor libkate at least14:36
sflrhi Kilos, charl!14:37
charlhmmm could be incorporated into any code editor i guess14:47
Kiloshehe i dunno, it installed as a dependancy with something else i have always used on gnome14:48
inetproGood evening ladies & gents 15:07

* nuvolari is not much of a dog-lover18:15
nuvolaricats I like18:15
Kilosits the only friend one can ever have that loves you more than itself18:15
Kilosthink i warped that a bit18:16

Kilosmaybe i can put it up somewhere again if i can make it by invite only18:26
inetprosflr: he has a beautiful young daughter who's trying to build herself some fame and it may just happen that his story could have a slight nagative impact on her aspirations18:29

Kiloswhen you first install ubuntu if you doff you go lists for help18:53
* sflr went to google for help18:55
* Banlam bothered friends18:55
Kilosi hate google18:55
Kilosi used lists for a week or 2 then the fly i think explained to me how to get here18:56
superflysflr: I despise WordPress - I was writing my own blog engine in Python18:56
Kilosdont forget i was a mechanic farmer18:56
Banlamand then what happened?18:56
Kilosthen i crashed18:57
Kilosbust head open and visited the pearly gates18:57
Kiloshehe18:57
KilosDOA means nothing if the big boss is on your side18:58
Kiloshere is my opinion of geeks19:03

magespawnLol @ Kilos19:08
Kilossuperfly, will you ever finish it?19:08
magespawnsuperfly do you know who hosts the ubuntu-za mailing list?19:09
KilosBanlam, i did have friends in the IT or even pc world19:09
Kilosdidnt19:09
superflyKilos: I don't know... maybe if I have some holiday, and I get a bee in my bonnet19:09
inetproKilos: that was very well written and worth reading again 19:10
superflymagespawn: Canonical19:10
Kiloswasty inetpro 19:10
Kilosoops19:10
Kilosty19:10
Kilosdunno what was was for19:10
inetpro:-)19:10
Kilosif i member right i just gave some vague ideas and the fly wrote it for me19:11
inetprook, /me is going offline for a few minutes to install Kubuntu 12.04 on this device of mine19:11
magespawnAhhh. Could you host it over a dsl connection if the list was small? Say 10 - 12 ppl?19:11
* inetpro bbl19:11
Kilosgood luck inetpro 19:11
superflymagespawn: you *could*19:12
superflymagespawn: practically, a number of web hosts already have mailing lists, and getting a VPS is pretty cheap these days19:13
magespawnWhat is pretty cheap?19:13
tumbleweedserving e-mail from DSL is a pretty bad idea. Many mailservers block e-mail from dynamic IP ranges19:13
Kilosevening tumbleweed 19:14
magespawnLet me explain whay I need it.19:14
tumbleweedevening (waving from a heathrow depature lounge, after an extended post-UDS european jaunt)19:15
tumbleweedmagespawn: pretty cheap = ~ $10 / month19:15
magespawnI am seceretary of my kids school SGB, and co-ordinating the meetings is getting to take up too much time, just mailing ppl19:15
magespawnThats about 80-100 rand.19:16
magespawnCan gmail do it?19:16
nuvolarimagespawn: google-groups19:16
magespawnR1200-00 tand a year or so.19:17
magespawnRand19:17
magespawnMm there is an idea, I set up a google site for the school, so I should be able to add it to that.19:18
tumbleweedyup, google groups is the easy answer here19:18
magespawnTy guys,just needed another mind, point of view. Should have thought of that ages ago.19:18
Banlammagespawn, what exactly do you need?19:19
Banlamjust a mailing list server?19:19
magespawnYup19:20
Banlamsurely there are free services19:21
magespawnSomething so that when one person suggests a change, I do not have forward the mail.19:21
nuvolariBanlam: *cough* google groups again :P19:21
Kiloslol19:21
Banlam:P19:21
magespawnLol19:21
tumbleweedmagespawn: I bet they'll still mail you directly19:21
magespawnMaybe would have to get them used to idea of the list.19:22
Kilostumbleweed, will you be able to make tomorrow nights meeting?19:22
magespawnPeople programming is harder than computer programming.19:23
tumbleweedKilos: I intend to19:23
Kilosimpossible to program some peeps19:23
Kilosyay19:23
Banlamjust send an email back to the people, that looks like it's been bounced by a server saying to forward emails to XYZ address19:24
* tumbleweed wanders off to board19:24
Kilosfly safe tumbleweed 19:24
magespawnI have a paid for address that I have been trying to get people to stop using for 5 years now.19:26
Kiloslol19:26
Kilosput an auto forward into it and close it19:27
Kilosor close it and they can get unable to deliver  mails back19:28
Kilosthen they will fone you19:28
magespawnThey already have my other one, and still every now and then they use the old one.19:29
cocooncrashKilos, superfly: superfly and drubin can grant permissions19:29
superflyah, ok19:30
Kilosty cocooncrash will try remember that19:30
superflyta cocooncrash19:30
Kilosdrubin is kinda missing in action lately19:30
Kiloshey magespawn you can use gc for school meetings19:33
magespawnKilos that was the idea butnher connection is only dsl19:33
Kilosdsl?19:34
magespawnSorry ADSL19:34
Kilosso thats fast enough19:34
Kilosits only text19:34
Kilosor you want videos too19:35
magespawnWe generally all live close by, so no need to do a telly meeting.19:35
Kiloslol19:35
Kilosas long as you get tea/coffee and cookies thats good19:36
magespawnWe do.19:41
Kiloslol19:41
sflrmagespawn, if it is for a school you can try Google Apps for Education http://www.google.com/apps/intl/en/edu/19:42

inetprobut I feel right at home already19:48
