I think the script just bombs out. I also created a new Ubuntu-za calendar, and set the right time-zone, etc. I set the meeting to end in 3 years time [06:46] bit of a thumper going here [06:46] sflr: GA done [06:46] thanks superfly [06:47] we have a LOT of traffic from China 0_0 [06:47] I can only presume they are spammers [06:49] yeah, i saw there were attempts to scrape member contact pages. also some XSS on the search box [06:50] opera is blocking out that captcha image [06:50] grrr [06:50] superfly: maybe you could update Drupal to latest version on the site?

[12:44] According to the USGS, the earthquake struck at a depth of 9.9 km, making this a shallow event. Shaking lasted for 30 to 40 seconds, according to local accounts. [12:44] oh my just memebered melbourne is in vic state [12:46] thanks inetpro [12:47] wow that sounds bad [12:47] 5.3 ... well it could have been worse... [12:48] yeah small one [12:48] that's the same earthquake. it was on tuesday, 19th [12:48] yeah that shouldn't have created any serious damage [12:48] http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/usb000ajek#summary [12:49] I wonder how is to live in Japan. tremors every day.

[12:52] sflr: i don't think japan worries too much about earthquakes... i think it's the tsunamis that create the big problem [12:53] on the positive side, they are well prepared for those [12:53] that article is dated today [12:53] but if a really big one comes... well we saw what happens then [12:54] yes inetpro, but USGS has the real time tracking. the time is the same. and i searched for Air Worldwide australia earthquake and news posts came up from the 20th with the same details and times. [12:54] yikes! [12:55] sounds like a dodgy site: http://www.newsinsurances.co.uk/. haha [12:55] I hate it when people publish articles referring to today without specifying it correctly [12:56] sflr: true [12:56] its for SEO. lol [12:58] Kilos: what did Tara say? when did she feel the shaking? [13:01] there were many aftershocks, inetpro look at this, beginning almost funny: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jk5O1yzmqa0 (5.2M - Biggest Quake to Hit Victoria, AU in 30 Years - June 19, 2012) [13:05] Krice Verta [13:05] Krice Verta updated her status: "How was that earthquake last night, guys!?

[14:08] born then? [14:09] have any of you seen this film http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1414378/ [14:09] Tracker (2010) [14:09] I have the funny problem that Ubuntu 10.04 works better with my wireless network card in my laptop than 12.04, so I'm multibooting between both releases [14:10] psydroid: what type of wireless card do you use? [14:10] i assume it's an on-board interface, not really a card :) [14:11] inetpro, superfly please can you give me a link for the kubuntu 12.04 iso [14:11] for ian [14:12] hmm... hang on [14:12] or one of you other guys if you got it for me [14:12] ty [14:12] Kilos: 32bit or 64bit? [14:13] yeah was just about to ask the same question :) [14:13] http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/precise/release/kubuntu-12.04-desktop-amd64.iso [14:13] 32 please [14:13] http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/precise/release/kubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso [14:13] the second one then [14:13] ty [14:13] while on the topic, why isn't 12.04 on the za mirror http://ubuntu.mirror.ac.za/ubuntu-release/kubuntu/ ? [14:14] last version on there is 11.10 [14:14] Kilos: i assume you wanted the link to the desktop iso, not the alternate one? [14:14] ahh, charl beat me to that [14:14] * inetpro was trying to find it on the za mirror [14:15] Kilos: the alternate is the one with the text installer [14:15] ty charl. have you got the alt one too? [14:15] Kilos: one sec [14:15] ya its your working time inetpro [14:15] so you forgiven [14:15] http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/precise/release/kubuntu-12.04-alternate-i386.iso [14:15] lol [14:16] ty charl [14:16] np [14:17] charl: perhaps Symmetria can load it for us when he's got more disk space [14:17] inetpro: oh yes, forgot about that already [14:18] i would really like to know what is the difference between the ubuntu "amd64 mac" and "amd64 pc" builds [14:18] i always ran the regular amd64 builds on my macbook [14:19] charl: http://askubuntu.com/questions/37999/what-is-different-about-the-mac-iso-image [14:19] is that amd cpu specific or will it be fine on intels too [14:20] brb [14:20] Kilos: should be fine on intel [14:20] inetpro: ah that's very interesting, thanks [14:20] ty inetpro [14:20] so it's all got to do with booting [14:20] i never had any issues with booting the regular amd64 builds, as a matter of fact, i did try the amd64+mac build once and i couldn't get it to boot [14:21] but that all makes sense then, i think i have too new a version [14:21] the instruction set should be identical to the pc because my macbook had a regular intel core i5 processor [14:21] charl: interesting indeed [14:21] * inetpro stays as far as possible away from mac [14:22] generally i do that as well but i used to work for a company where everyone used a mac [14:22] so i also got one (paid for by the company) [14:22] and the worst of it all is the mouse [14:22] I can't stand that thing [14:23] i would never blow a ton of money on a (mostly) standard intel-based chipset with a nice casing [14:23] i totally agree with you regarding the mouse, i used one for 30 mins and my hand got a cramp, no kidding [14:23] the keyboard is also extremely "flat" [14:23] for the nstuff I do I really don't need a mac [14:24] s/nstuff/stuff/ [14:24] thats lots of stuff. haha [14:24] sflr: exactly :-) [14:24] but everyone else is welcome to use a mac [14:25] the macbook has a nice large touchpad, so that's a positive, but you can't replace the battery without opening the whole thing up [14:25] that is completely braindead [14:25] the battery is the #1 thing you replace in a laptop and on a normal laptop you can just "click" the thing off [14:25] charl: no, it's called lock-in [14:26] and if you dispose the laptop, the lithium ion battery needs to be treated as chemical waste [14:26] lol yeah a proprietary lock-in [14:26] charl, that's how they make you buy new one. I stopped using Apple products as soon as my Ipods battery died and found out the solution is to buy a new one. [14:26] bah [14:27] apparently the battery is glued in in the new retina display mac book pro [14:27] and then they have it about pollution and wasting the world's resources [14:27] SmilyBorg: oh that is so evil [14:27] yup [14:27] sjoe [14:27] specially that glue. is hazardous. haha [14:27] SmilyBorg: don't tell Symmetria [14:27] the apple has gotten rotten :) [14:28] he loves the mac :-) [14:28] and the ram is soldered to the motherboard so you cant upgrade [14:28] SmilyBorg: a couple of months ago i was looking at buying one of the new acer ultrabooks [14:29] SmilyBorg: i got a demo model to play with, it was super light and i was quite keen to buy one [14:29] SmilyBorg: then i decided against it for that exact reason - the ram is on-board and there are NO expansion slots [14:29] ok who can modify this command to update the iso? [14:29] zsync -i ubuntu.iso http://ubuntu.mirror.ac.za/ubuntu-release/precise/ubuntu-12.04.1-Desktop-i386.iso.zsync [14:29] SmilyBorg: i do a lot of virtualisation and would like minimally 8GB of ram, preferably more [14:29] ya. ultrabooks are nice and they have their purpose, but they are not for everyone [14:29] yup [14:30] ya, same here [14:30] Kilos: sorry what exactly are you trying to do? [14:30] I'll deal with a bigger machine just to have 8-16GB ram and 700GB+ of hard drive [14:30] update a downloaded iso before burning to cd charl [14:31] Kilos: I think that link should be http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/precise/release/kubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso.zsync [14:31] charl, hi, Sitecom WL-180 v1 001 "Wireless Network 300N Cardbus Card" [14:31] update the iso... ok [14:31] ty inetpro [14:31]
