[08:35] ya more pins. but is it just faster? thats the diffs [08:35] yes [08:35] ty [08:35] no worries [08:35] was thinking maybe the ddr would be cheaper [08:36] i think that you would not be able to find it at all [08:36] oh [08:37] most new mb take ddr3 [08:37] yeah so i see, they phasing out old stuff [08:38] yes, but if you can find someone with old stock you can pick it really cheap. [08:40] when i got going here i tried 2 second hand pc /repair/upgrade shops and they charged me stacks [08:40] like R150 for 128m rams [08:41] that is made, but maybe people have worked out that it is getting scarce [08:41] didnt know then what ram actually did so got one at a time [08:43] did you keep it?

[16:20] yeah he is quite good already [16:20] ooh, he'll like thiss [16:21] smile: Tussen Treine by Richard van der Westhuizen, with lyrics: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OXUpH4dy2g&feature=related [16:21] he wrote a chat client or modified one or something for english dutch and afrikaans [16:21] Eh, it just kept track of how often words appeared together and where in a sentence they appeared. It then built up responses using those words. Sometimes it made sense and sometimes it didn't. It's just very interesting to me :P [16:21] ah le daar n stasie [16:22] lol i just came off the train an hour ago [16:22] ah similar to chat bots Trixar_za ?

It's more or less accurate depending on the amount of current data. That's why Google uses them too [16:25] its about too long ago to be politically charged still [16:25] thanks nuvolari :) [16:25] nuvolari: ja ek is besig met Afrikaans lere :p [16:25] * leer ? :p [16:25] Artificial Intelligence has become somewhat of a hobby of mine [16:25] :P [16:25] smile: "Ja, ek is besig om Afriaans te leer" [16:26] dankie vir jou verbetering / korreksie :p [16:26] Trixar_za: most attempts at "artificial intelligence" resembles "artificial stupidity" more :) [16:26] smile, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nlHqKJyo3GQ [16:26] smile: no problem :) I'll do them when I can if you don't mind?

[18:14] inetpro, ? [18:14] Or it is really bad. [18:14] Planes, helicopters. [18:14] oh ya [18:14] like nuvo [18:15] good pilots fly in any weather [18:15] just use a weather sock [18:30] I thought you could fish in any weather. Except lightning. [18:30] yeah you can but its miseable [18:31] and fish dont bite at certain times. think barometric pressue affects them i think [18:31] bye :) [18:31] cheers smile [18:31] sleep tight [18:31] Cheers smile [18:31] thanks, see ya the day after tomorrow :) [18:32] k [18:41] Okay that is just wrong. Wonder what went wrong this time. [18:42] what now? [18:42] Okay so not a power failure then, gc_ [18:42] magespawn: Excuse me? [18:42] gc_ left and came back [18:42] magespawn: Sorry...

[18:43] auto [18:43] telkom lines [18:44] The pc can but have not yet added ibid to the start up [18:44] or equipment in the exchange [18:44] gc_ coffee for everyone [18:44] magespawn: Sorry... [18:45] lol [18:45] gc_ coffee on for everyone [18:45] magespawn: Sorry... [18:45] gc_ coffee on [18:45] * gc_ puts the kettle on [18:46] gc_, coffee please [18:46] Kilos: Sure [18:46] inetpro, coffee time [18:46] Maaz: coffee please [18:46] inetpro: There isn't a pot on [18:46] yo superfly you sneaked in [18:46] eish! [18:46] by gc_ man [18:46] gc_: coffee please [18:46] inetpro: Sure [18:47] sjoe ek sukkel met my volk [18:48] Kilos: I think we should limit the sue of other bots in the channel === Trixar_za is now known as Trix[a]r_za [18:48] the use* [18:49] magespawn: ^^ [18:49] Coffee's ready for magespawn, Kilos and inetpro! [18:49] yikes, my fingers are cold or something [18:49] gc ty [18:49] It's a pleasure to serve humans Kilos [18:49] lol [18:50] dont fight mage inetpro hes posting me a cpu [18:52] Sure no problem, was just as a stand in when Maaz was away on holiday, and as a bit of new learning [18:52] i will be offline tuesday and thursday up to maybe 1800 due to power cuts [18:52] magespawn, you can put her by me if you want [18:53] Wow, so you going to be in a previously lit area. [18:53] Kilos: I'm not fighting magespawn at all [18:53] lol [18:53] ek terg man [18:53] ja ja [18:53] i dunno what they doing this time magespawn [18:54] * magespawn puts on the boxing gloves [18:54] ohi Kilos [18:54] na he bigger but i have more experience [18:54] Lol [18:54] and know more dirty tricks [18:55] hi magespawn [18:55] and inetpro [18:55] Hey superfly [18:56] magespawn: 1. the coming and going of the bot can be very irritating, 2 the bot is doing exactly the same as Maaz, or almost [18:56] all godd superfly [18:56] hi superfly [18:56] when you host the bot it must be stable [18:56] Kilos: yes, just busy as usual [18:57] Cool. I understand. [18:57] in fact I'm not in favor of us moving away from Maaz on cocooncrash's server [18:57] sjoe good [18:57] gc_ leave #ubuntu-za [18:57] not too tired again [18:57] that is unless he really doesn't want to host it anymore [18:58] * inetpro just thought I'd open the topic before tomorrows meeting so long [18:58] inetpro, does he have to pay to host maaz there? [18:58] gc_ is just on my pc in the shop, would not be a good idea to use her as the main one. [18:58] thats a very stable host mostly [18:59] inetpro, ? [18:59] Kilos: I'm not sure what is arrangement is but at least we're not paying anything [18:59] maybe we just ask him for admin rights for you [19:00] if its finances or time thats his prob then we can rethink [19:00] Kilos: heh! Systems administration rule #1: Trust nobody [19:00] if time is just admin needed [19:01] I'm not sure he would be keen to let anybody admin his box for hm [19:01] oh you mean the admin to maaz [19:02] i dunno what it actually meant by the data dump [19:02] that is why he would much rather give up hosting it, in which case he is willing to give us a copy of the db [19:02] Can you not just admin Maaz? [19:02] and another host for maaz [19:03] oh because of the admin inetpro ? [19:03] the bniggest prob i see with maaz is getting permissions for every meet otherwise he be kiff [19:03] wb not_found [19:04] meeting admin has been sorted [19:04] hello again uncle Kilos [19:04] I thought it was possible to add an admin just to the ibid setup [19:04] not_found: you seem lost [19:04] oh is that sorted without looking for it anymore inetpro ? [19:04] not really inetpro ... I am right ... oh dear! [19:05] lol [19:06] inetpro, if you have permissions then all is good [19:06] an admin can grant admin rights to other people [19:06] there are a bunch of different rights, some of them are fairly safe to give out [19:06] Maaz: permissions [19:06] inetpro: Permissions: chairmeeting [19:06] others essentially let people execute arbitrary code on the bot's host [19:07] Kilos: I don't have full admin, just chairmeeting, which is enough for the meetings, and I'm not the only with that right [19:08] then all is good inetpro we can delete that agenda item [19:08] thanks tumbleweed [19:08] methinks its just meetings we have to worry about [19:08] Kilos: I still think it's worth talking about it, but perhaps more here than in the meeting [19:08] and coffee [19:09] unless someone really comes with a good offer in the meeting [19:09] tumbleweed, do you know what this is all about [19:09] no [19:10] tumbleweed: would you be willing to host Maaz? [19:10] * tumbleweed just sat down at Atlanta airport and noticed discussion about ibid admin [19:10] the crash kid said we can host maaz somewhere else and he will give a data dump [19:10] lol [19:10] superfly: would you be willing to host Maaz? [19:11] we dunno if he wants to get rid of the responsibility or not [19:11] * tumbleweed is already hosting one ibid on my server, but yes I could take on Maaz. I'd prefer it if someone else did, though [19:12] I'm sure cocooncrash would continue hosting if we choose not to move [19:12] cocooncrash: what do you say about that? [19:12] surely cocooncrash never sleeps? [19:13] no man hes married now [19:13] ahh :-) [19:13] sleeps lots [19:13] and its 6 am there [19:13] That does not mean he sleeps though. [19:13] haha [19:14] ok, so tumbleweed is our plan B or C if push comes to shove [19:14] tumbleweed: thanks, that is good to know [19:14] what's the problem with cocooncrash hosting it? [19:14] yeah we just need to hear from cocoon and here what he would prefer methinks [19:14] is he too inactive? [19:15] tumbleweed, it all started when i aske d him if he can do the upgrade you sorted [19:15] tumbleweed: I'm sure it's just a matter of him feeling a bit disconnected at this stage, but that is just my humble opinion [19:16] makes sense [19:16] he said ok when he has time but we can have maaz with data dump if we have a host [19:16] * tumbleweed doesn't hang around here all day, either. So there are more active people who may be better admins than me [19:17] its only for meetings that we needed anything different from maaz than coffee and googling [19:17] :) [19:17] so admin is minimal [19:18] To get admin and host in one person might be difficult [19:18] And very active. [19:18] it would be nice to have a #ubuntu-za VPS with a few responsible admins [19:18] thats actually more important inetpro [19:19] what happened about the host for server [19:19] VPS? [19:19] virtual private server [19:19] so, ubuntu-za currently has things hosted on CLUG's VM [19:19] (where things = our website) [19:19] the VM is a small xen instance donated by frogfoot [19:20] tumbleweed: I think that is superfly's VPS [19:21] no, it's CLUGs [19:21] ah, ok [19:22] but it doesn't have enough RAM to run an ibid too [19:23] eish! [19:23] tumbleweed: for interest sake, how much RAM is needed? [19:24] oh and how much does the CLUG instance have? [19:25] 256M. Running apache+PHP and mysql [19:25] perhaps they can start another xen instance with enough RAM for ibid for us? [19:25] I don't think they will. IIRC we asked for the ubuntu-za website and they said no [19:25] so, that's why it's shared with clug [19:26] hmm... ok [19:26] Do they host the actual machine? [19:26] something like an IRC bot is probably easier to host on someone's personal machine [19:27] Just the connection and electricity issues. [19:27] magespawn: and the sysadmin issues [19:27] time and effort [19:28] although that can be very minimal when everything just works [19:28] perfect world [19:28] Well I would not be worried about that with mine as long as it was the regular guys in here. [19:29] inetpro, what sysadmin is involved with a bot [19:29] not much [19:29] tumbleweed: what are the risks? [19:30] methinks the biggest thing needed with a bot is permanent connection [19:31] it's fairly likely that there are security bugs in ibid that allow people to do random things on the machine hosting it [19:31] that said, I host tibid on my bare server, quite happily [19:31] but I probably should confine it to a container [19:33] I saw something about a company doing VPS that had some sort of special for ibid, if i remember correctly. [19:33] that would be suprising, I didn't know Ibid had many users [19:34] I will see if I can find it again. [19:34] let's wait and see what cocooncrash says and perhaps also get some feedback from superfly, not sure who else would want to say something about it [19:34] magespawn: was that not about hosting quassel? [19:35] perhaps charl? [19:35] Ahhh yes that was it, quassel. [19:35] My mistake, sorry. [19:36] I host an Ibid instance on my VPS [19:36] No security issues that I know of, or have seen [19:37] * tumbleweed used to host tibid on my desktop, running as my user [19:37] ah, the good days :) [19:37] I would love it if we could get a official #ubuntu-za VPS [19:37] How much do they cost? [19:38] in that case, we need to figure out how we want to fund it [19:38] tumbleweed: true [19:38] (btw, be careful, some VM providers use a hosting facility in atlanta that doesn't allow anything IRC related) [19:38] also true [19:39] How much do they cost? [19:39] I guess a personal server is best case scenario for now [19:40] Thrust isnt too expensive [19:40] please explain to me what is wrong with the way things are working now [19:41] Kilos: nothing [19:41] we want cocooncrash to do things that he dosen't have time to do right now? [19:41] so whats with servers [19:41] there are too many old people, like you Kilos :P [19:41] Kilos: just the can of worms you opened with the hosting of Maaz :-) [19:41] thats only maaz not ubuntu-za [19:41] lol [19:42] maaz is a fairly useful service for ubuntu-za [19:42] yes [19:42] Kilos: lot's of knowledge you taught that guy in there [19:43] si i suggest if hosting maaz isnt a prob for crash then keep it as is [19:43] Vps would be about R150 - R300. [19:43] bakuman, ill get maaz to swear at you [19:43] hehe [19:44] once of magespawn ? [19:44] that would be really mean :( [19:44] because maaz like this ballie [19:44] likes [19:45] * bakuman will run his own bot and he will battle maaz, Battle Bots!!! [19:45] we got more [19:45] backup gc and qp [19:46] No per month Kilos. [19:46] no man then stay as we are [19:46] Make a bot channel, lol. [19:46] we arent paying now are we? inetpro [19:47] Kilos: nope [19:47] so then whats up you okes [19:47] lol [19:47] magespawn: stick your nose into #ibid on irc.atrum.org some time, and say "bot: hi" [19:48] More control and freedom, also ppl are doing #ubuntu-za a favour. [19:49] Bot channel? Cool. [19:49] magespawn: What? [19:49] thrust is about R70 a month for a small VPS [19:49] yes magespawn but what cant we do here that a vps thingie will provide [19:50] Kilos, inetpro: I don't see much of a problem with the current setup [19:50] nope nor do i superfly [19:50] old saying [19:51] Leave well enough alone [19:51] superfly: so you suggest removing the point from the agenda? [19:51] tumbleweed, question please [19:51] inetpro: unless it becomes a problem, yes. [19:51] ok, Kilos go delete [19:51] Kilos: yeah? [19:52] can one make the daily build for maverick stop as is [19:52] as in no more daily [19:52] it hasn't built since maverick was removed from the archive [19:52] I could delete the old packages, if that's what you are asking [19:52] Kilos: ok, I'll do it [19:53] the last job you did is enough till unforseen probs occur [19:53] im not sure what i mean myself. but to stop more builds adding on from now on because its fine as is [19:54] there won't be any more builds for maverick [19:54] i mean after the upgrade of old ibid tumbleweed [19:54] but lucid will keep building whenever things change, because that's the purpose of the PPA [19:54] so if we upgrade maaz then he will be stable on 2 [19:54] as my bot is and magespawn s [19:55] oh ya i mean lucid sorry [19:55] we should do an ibid release. People shouldn't have to run the latest trunk [19:55] Kilos: you'll be happy to know that the point has been removed from the agenda [19:55] like you last upgrade for lucid can stop there and no more after [19:55] lol inetpro ty [19:56] I am out of here night all. [19:56] basically i think it means making the ppa not a ppa anymore doesnt it [19:56] night magespawn [19:56] it's a pleasure to serve humans Kilos [19:56] sleep tight [19:57] rofl [19:57] magespawn: good night [19:57] where he went now [19:57] tumbles i mean [19:58] * tumbleweed is here [19:58] was just distracted [19:58] ah [19:59] can we upgrade maaz and then stop the ppa right there tumbleweed [19:59] yes, you could [19:59] thats where we need the crash kid hey? [19:59] by me i have all updates off [19:59] * tumbleweed wouldn't be suprised to see our upgrade scripts blow up, though :) [20:00] oh my goodness [20:00] my head is too flat for all this stuff [20:01] does upgrading lucids ibid affect all the later releases [20:01] sorry, not understanding the question [20:02] oh i mean did the ppa for ibid affect more than just the lucid version [20:03] the ppa provides packages for all supported releases [20:03] inetpro: hi sorry only saw your mention now [20:04] not sure what the thread was about, something relating to ibid? [20:04] ok now if we do the update for maaz now, then he will be stable and working and wont need later updates or does he get them automartically [20:05] you'll be running the current development version of the code. [20:05] charl: yep, we where discussing possible scenarios of moving Maaz to another host [20:05] so its safe to update maaz then [20:05] ah i see, ok [20:05] but I believe that it should not be necessary [20:06] it's generally been very stable and cocooncrash has been doing us a massive favor so far [20:06] yes [20:06] Kilos: fairly safe. I'm running that code on tibid and it hasn't blown up [20:07] but no guarantees [20:07] I don't think there are any pressing needs to upgrade Maaz to the latest version [20:07] nope no pressing need at all [20:07] and I suggest that we leave that decision to cocooncrash [20:08] agreed [20:08] lets attack noddy next [20:08] hehe [20:08] lol [20:08] * tumbleweed is going to wander off to his gate now [20:09] tumbleweed: thanks for your time [20:09] fly safe tumbleweed thank you [20:09] and have a safe flight [20:09] * Kilos cries [20:09] ciao tumbleweed, all the best [20:09] no more can of worms [20:11] thanks all [20:13] inetpro, what would be in maaz's data dump? [20:14] Kilos: think of all the training you gave him [20:14] is that all [20:14] coupla kB's [20:14] inetpro: I don't mind hosting Maaz, I just don't have the time to deal with trunk breakages [20:14] Kilos: hmm... not only you [20:15] cocooncrash: that says it all, thanks [20:15] please cocooncrash will you keep on doing itmfor us [20:15] Which is why I keep Maaz on the stable branch [20:16] we are scared if maaz moves we lose you too [20:16] Kilos: yes he will keep doing it [20:16] w00t [20:17] Kilos: and he will upgrade Maaz when he and tumbleweed and all the other developers have released a proper next release [20:17] Kilos, inetpro: superfly and drubin have full admin permissions on the bot and can grant permission to other people [20:17] If you want me to give full permission to some other people just let me know [20:17] cocooncrash: wow! [20:17] nope thats fine ty cocooncrash [20:18] cocooncrash: thanks for that [20:18] but drubin has faded from here [20:18] inetpro: np, it's been like that for ages [20:18] dunno when he will have time to visit again [20:19] * superfly is always here and doesn't see that changing any time soon [20:20] * inetpro should scan his memory for faulty bits [20:21] ty superfly and inetpro with the missing bits [20:21] corrupt bits [20:21] old age [20:22] heh, probably quite a number of those :-) [20:22] Maaz, announce Meeting tomorrow night at 19.30 guys. Be here [20:22] Announcement from Kilos! Meeting tomorrow night at 19.30 guys. Be here [20:22] Kilos: we know! :-) [20:23] go announce that on the ML [20:23] oh thought it might be in the missing bits [20:23] tomorrow [20:24] you guys are lucky i didnt come here before the head [20:25] night all. sleep tight and be rested for tomorrow [20:30] cocooncrash: may you a blessed Sunday [20:30] inetpro: Thanks :) [20:30] * inetpro goes to recharge his batteries [20:30] good night everyone [20:50] nn inetpro [21:21] nn
