Kilos | guten tag mein herr's | 14:17 |
Kilos | dunno how to sat that> herritjies | 14:18 |
charl | Kilos: herren | 14:21 |
charl | anyway, how's it going? | 14:22 |
Kilos | ah ty | 14:22 |
Kilos | well ty and you charl | 14:22 |
Kilos | i see Audi clean up at Le Mans again | 14:23 |
charl | not bad | 14:23 |
charl | my head hurts from studying though | 14:23 |
Kilos | oh my | 14:23 |
Kilos | mine hurts from not being able to study | 14:24 |
Kilos | are your eyes good lad? | 14:24 |
charl | hmm that's quite the opposite problem | 14:24 |
charl | for long distance i have glasses because i am near-sighted | 14:24 |
charl | but unless i am driving i don't wear them | 14:24 |
Kilos | ah i use here on the pc and stronger ones for reading books | 14:25 |
charl | actually quite a nice pair of glasses, they have the sun-protection layer as well so they double as sun glasses | 14:25 |
Kilos | thats nice | 14:25 |
charl | ah i see, no i'm fortunate in that i don't have to wear them for computer or books | 14:25 |
Kilos | haha and with choqok not being able to size fonts i need pc glasses to type and reading to follow choqok | 14:26 |
charl | ah i see, never used choqok | 14:27 |
charl | looks nice though, pity about the lack of font resizingt | 14:27 |
charl | that should become standard in all applications | 14:27 |
Kilos | its actually quite a nice twitter tool apart from not working as it should in gnome | 14:27 |
Kilos | better than gtwitter | 14:28 |
Kilos | imho | 14:28 |
charl | gtwitter sucks imho | 14:28 |
charl | or was that another tool i am thinking about.... | 14:28 |
charl | there was gwibber or something too | 14:28 |
Kilos | gwibber isnt bad either but now i have twitter ubuntu-za in my pidgin then everything works | 14:28 |
charl | ah nice | 14:29 |
Kilos | having learned the follow and unfollow commands help | 14:29 |
Kilos | s | 14:29 |
charl | i friend of mine wrote a command-line twitter tool he maintained for some time | 14:30 |
charl | but i don't think he is still developing it | 14:30 |
Kilos | i see some in synaptic | 14:30 |
charl | yeah i'm sure there must be others as well | 14:30 |
Kilos | but now i will use pidgin where im at least at home | 14:30 |
Kilos | yo sflr howzit | 14:31 |
charl | hi sflr | 14:31 |
Kilos | methinks the kde things arent too happy on gnome charl | 14:32 |
Kilos | quassel and konversation dont have sound here either | 14:32 |
Kilos | but i see one can do quassel without kde dependancies | 14:33 |
charl | i haven't had too many issues myself (outside of kde applications basically looking pretty crap) inside gnome | 14:34 |
charl | but then i haven't used many recently | 14:34 |
charl | i used kate as my primary code editor for quite some time | 14:34 |
Kilos | i think maybe its better to keep kde stuff on kde | 14:34 |
charl | yeah that is probably true | 14:35 |
charl | i have anyway mostly converted to using command line applications instead | 14:35 |
Kilos | but kate is needed for somethings on gnome as well. i have kate but it was needed for something else | 14:35 |
Kilos | or libkate at least | 14:36 |
sflr | hi Kilos, charl! | 14:37 |
charl | hmmm could be incorporated into any code editor i guess | 14:47 |
Kilos | hehe i dunno, it installed as a dependancy with something else i have always used on gnome | 14:48 |
inetpro | Good evening ladies & gents | 15:07 |
Kilos | evening inetpro | 15:07 |
charl | hi inetpro | 15:07 |

inetpro | yes I've got like 4 straatbrakke | 17:57 |
inetpro | <nuvolari> ack, need to go feed the dogs | 17:57 |
Kilos | ok listen. gotta try remember | 17:57 |
Kilos | when i was on the farm in utrecht | 17:58 |
Kilos | farmer was on the boerbull telers raad and his father was a founder member of them | 17:58 |
Kilos | he was advised to feed them express weaner which is actually for pigs | 17:59 |
inetpro | yikes | 17:59 |
Kilos | so he had it analysed at a lab and was told it is the perfect dogs food available | 18:00 |
Kilos | got everything a dog needs | 18:00 |
Kilos | was a well kept secret but if it can help anyone here i be happy | 18:01 |
Kilos | i think it is make by meadowfeeds | 18:01 |
Kilos | cant member for sure about the manufcturers | 18:01 |
Kilos | you guys can google the feed making companies just to make sure. | 18:02 |
Kilos | you buy it from co-ops in 50kg bags | 18:03 |
inetpro | and then you feed them like a pig? | 18:04 |
Kilos | dis soos afrond korrels vir jou broilers | 18:04 |
inetpro | shame | 18:04 |
inetpro | :-) | 18:04 |
Kilos | no man you put it in their dishes | 18:04 |
Kilos | it doesnt make dogs grow so fast man | 18:04 |
Kilos | its a complete dog food | 18:05 |
inetpro | I can remember from the farm my dad used to make his own mixes | 18:05 |
inetpro | some of that stuff was actually very tasty | 18:05 |
Kilos | made a massive diffs to the pocket when feeding 20 boerboele | 18:05 |
Kilos | lol | 18:06 |
Kilos | funny how these things poup from before winmill days | 18:06 |

inetpro | sflr: that's how I got so clever | 18:09 |
inetpro | :-) | 18:09 |
sflr | haha. and dogs stayed hungry? | 18:09 |
sflr | for the meeting intro we could also say the location where are we from? | 18:10 |
sflr | to plan the meetups, etc | 18:10 |
Kilos | ha ha ha | 18:10 |
Kilos | also maybe the idea of the NPO thing can go to lists and might attract some more geeks | 18:11 |
* nuvolari is not much of a dog-lover | 18:15 | |
nuvolari | cats I like | 18:15 |
Kilos | its the only friend one can ever have that loves you more than itself | 18:15 |
Kilos | think i warped that a bit | 18:16 |

Kilos | kinda yeah. was too visible | 18:25 |
Kilos | maybe i can put it up somewhere again if i can make it by invite only | 18:26 |
inetpro | sflr: 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 aspirations | 18:29 |
inetpro | not sure how, but he did the wise thing to pull it off | 18:30 |
sflr | thanks for the update inetpro | 18:30 |
Kilos | ty inetpro | 18:30 |
Kilos | im trying to find it. hope it didnt disappear with my last crash | 18:31 |
sflr | you know everything comes out sooner or later. specially for a person who becomes famous | 18:31 |
Kilos | yeah the media can cause ructions if we connected openly | 18:31 |
nuvolari | sflr: either way, I'm better frends with aliens than with dogs | 18:32 |
Kilos | lol | 18:32 |

Kilos | was just keen to show you my opinion of a geek | 18:39 |
Kilos | wanted to hit my son when he called me one | 18:39 |
sflr | I think you can make blogspot blog a private one. but not sure. | 18:39 |
sflr | haha, is your son also a geek? | 18:40 |

Banlam | who is miles? | 18:43 |
sflr | hi magespawn | 18:43 |
sflr | & Banlam | 18:44 |
Banlam | evening | 18:44 |
magespawn | Hi sflr, Banlam | 18:44 |
magespawn | Kilos is miles | 18:45 |
Kilos | it was there nuvolari and i had to ask the fly to delete it | 18:45 |
Kilos | hah | 18:45 |
sflr | Miles is Kilos | 18:45 |
Kilos | where you got that Banlam | 18:45 |
Banlam | aha | 18:45 |
Banlam | :P | 18:45 |
Banlam | ubuntuza mail list | 18:46 |
sflr | how many ppl are subsribed to the mailing list? | 18:46 |
Kilos | lots | 18:47 |
sflr | i meant in numbers :) 200? | 18:47 |
Kilos | most help from there and dont join us here | 18:47 |
Kilos | ? | 18:47 |
Kilos | maybe when he has time the fly can tell us | 18:49 |
Kilos | most noobs go there for help in the beginning | 18:49 |
magespawn | I think they should come here, more interactive and personal. | 18:51 |
Banlam | i only joined the list on thursday | 18:51 |
Banlam | i can't remember why i joined here | 18:51 |
Kilos | Banlam, its mainly for guys like me that cant help themselves i think | 18:52 |
Banlam | the channel? | 18:52 |
Kilos | we have been trying for months to get them here | 18:52 |
Kilos | no the lists | 18:52 |
Kilos | when you first install ubuntu if you doff you go lists for help | 18:53 |
* sflr went to google for help | 18:55 | |
* Banlam bothered friends | 18:55 | |
Kilos | i hate google | 18:55 |
Kilos | i used lists for a week or 2 then the fly i think explained to me how to get here | 18:56 |
superfly | sflr: I despise WordPress - I was writing my own blog engine in Python | 18:56 |
Kilos | dont forget i was a mechanic farmer | 18:56 |
Banlam | and then what happened? | 18:56 |
Kilos | then i crashed | 18:57 |
Kilos | bust head open and visited the pearly gates | 18:57 |
Kilos | hehe | 18:57 |
Kilos | DOA means nothing if the big boss is on your side | 18:58 |
Kilos | here is my opinion of geeks | 19:03 |
Kilos | http://slexy.org/view/s21IMHuRkY | 19:03 |
magespawn | Lol @ Kilos | 19:08 |
Kilos | superfly, will you ever finish it? | 19:08 |
magespawn | superfly do you know who hosts the ubuntu-za mailing list? | 19:09 |
Kilos | Banlam, i did have friends in the IT or even pc world | 19:09 |
Kilos | didnt | 19:09 |
superfly | Kilos: I don't know... maybe if I have some holiday, and I get a bee in my bonnet | 19:09 |
inetpro | Kilos: that was very well written and worth reading again | 19:10 |
superfly | magespawn: Canonical | 19:10 |
Kilos | wasty inetpro | 19:10 |
Kilos | oops | 19:10 |
Kilos | ty | 19:10 |
Kilos | dunno what was was for | 19:10 |
inetpro | :-) | 19:10 |
Kilos | if i member right i just gave some vague ideas and the fly wrote it for me | 19:11 |
inetpro | ok, /me is going offline for a few minutes to install Kubuntu 12.04 on this device of mine | 19:11 |
magespawn | Ahhh. Could you host it over a dsl connection if the list was small? Say 10 - 12 ppl? | 19:11 |
* inetpro bbl | 19:11 | |
Kilos | good luck inetpro | 19:11 |
superfly | magespawn: you *could* | 19:12 |
superfly | magespawn: practically, a number of web hosts already have mailing lists, and getting a VPS is pretty cheap these days | 19:13 |
magespawn | What is pretty cheap? | 19:13 |
tumbleweed | serving e-mail from DSL is a pretty bad idea. Many mailservers block e-mail from dynamic IP ranges | 19:13 |
Kilos | evening tumbleweed | 19:14 |
magespawn | Let me explain whay I need it. | 19:14 |
tumbleweed | evening (waving from a heathrow depature lounge, after an extended post-UDS european jaunt) | 19:15 |
tumbleweed | magespawn: pretty cheap = ~ $10 / month | 19:15 |
magespawn | I am seceretary of my kids school SGB, and co-ordinating the meetings is getting to take up too much time, just mailing ppl | 19:15 |
magespawn | Thats about 80-100 rand. | 19:16 |
magespawn | Can gmail do it? | 19:16 |
nuvolari | magespawn: google-groups | 19:16 |
magespawn | R1200-00 tand a year or so. | 19:17 |
magespawn | Rand | 19:17 |
magespawn | Mm 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 |
tumbleweed | yup, google groups is the easy answer here | 19:18 |
magespawn | Ty guys,just needed another mind, point of view. Should have thought of that ages ago. | 19:18 |
Banlam | magespawn, what exactly do you need? | 19:19 |
Banlam | just a mailing list server? | 19:19 |
magespawn | Yup | 19:20 |
Banlam | surely there are free services | 19:21 |
magespawn | Something so that when one person suggests a change, I do not have forward the mail. | 19:21 |
nuvolari | Banlam: *cough* google groups again :P | 19:21 |
Kilos | lol | 19:21 |
Banlam | :P | 19:21 |
magespawn | Lol | 19:21 |
tumbleweed | magespawn: I bet they'll still mail you directly | 19:21 |
magespawn | Maybe would have to get them used to idea of the list. | 19:22 |
Kilos | tumbleweed, will you be able to make tomorrow nights meeting? | 19:22 |
magespawn | People programming is harder than computer programming. | 19:23 |
tumbleweed | Kilos: I intend to | 19:23 |
Kilos | impossible to program some peeps | 19:23 |
Kilos | yay | 19:23 |
Banlam | just send an email back to the people, that looks like it's been bounced by a server saying to forward emails to XYZ address | 19:24 |
* tumbleweed wanders off to board | 19:24 | |
Kilos | fly safe tumbleweed | 19:24 |
magespawn | I have a paid for address that I have been trying to get people to stop using for 5 years now. | 19:26 |
Kilos | lol | 19:26 |
Kilos | put an auto forward into it and close it | 19:27 |
Kilos | or close it and they can get unable to deliver mails back | 19:28 |
Kilos | then they will fone you | 19:28 |
magespawn | They already have my other one, and still every now and then they use the old one. | 19:29 |
cocooncrash | Kilos, superfly: superfly and drubin can grant permissions | 19:29 |
superfly | ah, ok | 19:30 |
Kilos | ty cocooncrash will try remember that | 19:30 |
superfly | ta cocooncrash | 19:30 |
Kilos | drubin is kinda missing in action lately | 19:30 |
Kilos | hey magespawn you can use gc for school meetings | 19:33 |
magespawn | Kilos that was the idea butnher connection is only dsl | 19:33 |
Kilos | dsl? | 19:34 |
magespawn | Sorry ADSL | 19:34 |
Kilos | so thats fast enough | 19:34 |
Kilos | its only text | 19:34 |
Kilos | or you want videos too | 19:35 |
magespawn | We generally all live close by, so no need to do a telly meeting. | 19:35 |
Kilos | lol | 19:35 |
Kilos | as long as you get tea/coffee and cookies thats good | 19:36 |
magespawn | We do. | 19:41 |
Kilos | lol | 19:41 |
sflr | magespawn, if it is for a school you can try Google Apps for Education http://www.google.com/apps/intl/en/edu/ | 19:42 |
* inetpro is back though not optimal yet... lot's of updating and configuration to do | 19:46 | |
inetpro | but I feel right at home already | 19:48 |
Kilos | yay inetpro | 19:48 |
magespawn | sflr already have the free google apps set up for, just did not know I could set up a mailing list with it | 19:50 |
magespawn | Will move to that one if the situation warrants it. | 19:50 |
inetpro | tumbleweed: good to see you online again, you back? | 19:50 |
inetpro | cocooncrash: ahh, and even cocooncrash? | 19:51 |
sflr | yes, that will work magespawn. http://www.google.com/apps/intl/en/edu/groups.html | 19:52 |
inetpro | ahh, the tumbling tumbleweed is at the airport | 19:53 |
Kilos | hehe | 19:53 |
inetpro | magespawn: google groups is the answer | 19:54 |
Kilos | night all of you guys. sleep tight | 20:18 |
Kilos | see you's tomorrow | 20:18 |
Kilos | Maaz, night | 20:19 |
Maaz | Kilos: Bye | 20:19 |
sflr | bye Kilos! | 20:19 |
magespawn | I am also out of here, thanks for the help and advice, night all. | 20:20 |
inetpro | superfly: what's that package that tumbleweed suggested again in stead of the propriatary nvidia drivers? | 20:45 |
superfly | nouveau | 20:45 |
inetpro | ahh | 20:45 |
inetpro | thanks | 20:45 |
charl | nn all | 20:48 |
