inetproKilosU: just be aware that you're not using standard methods of connecting two PC's to the web06:10
KilosUI'll get by with a little help from my friends06:10
inetprotypically a router/switch would be involved to make your life a lot easier06:10
KilosUwhew tell me about it. ive installed gadmin and samba and arno06:11
inetproyou basically made your main PC to be a router, not something the average guy does 06:11
KilosUand then uninstalled them but still got arno that didnt work before06:11
KilosUyeah but im so happy. scared to switch off tonight06:12
inetproit's a good learning exercise06:12
inetproI guess it's not even something the average guy would ever do06:12
KilosUonly prob one doesnt get to do it repeatedly to get the method into subconscious06:13
KilosUso did felix break the sound barrier06:13
KilosU?06:13
inetproKilosU: yep06:14

charlvngood morning07:28
charlvnMaaz: coffee on07:28

KilosUlo charlvn 07:29
KilosUMaaz, coffee please07:29
MaazKilosU: Sure07:29
MaazCoffee's ready for charlvn and KilosU!07:32
KilosUMaaz, ty07:33
MaazYou are welcome KilosU07:33
charlvnMaaz: thanks07:39
Maazcharlvn: No problem07:39
charlvnhi KilosU 07:39
charlvni am busy installing the beta2 of 12.10 inside vmware08:08
charlvnso far so good, except one problem: the live cd didn't reboot properly after the install so i had to manually power down the vm08:09
charlvnbut after booting it back up again it's working fine08:09
charlvnanother weird thing is that i have a floppy disk icon in the left menu even though i don't have a floppy drive on this vm08:10
KilosUlol08:10
charlvnbesides, who still uses floppies?!08:10
KilosUthey seem to be useful if you wanna update bios08:11
charlvnthey don't even sell them anymore - this workstation of mine is 4 years old and it doesn't even have a floppy drive08:11
tonberryE352most new bios updaters have flash boot support as far as i know08:11
charlvnthey have to - you don't get floppy drives anymore. :)08:12
KilosUon my pc it says save the update to floppy before flashing08:13
charlvnKilosU: where do you buy the floppies? from a museum? :)08:14
KilosUi got quite a few08:14
tonberryE352the image that came to mind08:14
KilosUyou want some?08:14
tonberryE352picture of indiana jones holding a floppy and saying "This belongs in a museum!"08:14
KilosUi started here on a old 486 and nearly everything was on floppy08:15
KilosUhehe Tonberry 08:15
KilosUwith old pcs and using winsucks you need floppy to install software to make cdrom seen08:16
charlvnwell my first computer was an intel 80188 and it only had the old 5,25 inch floppies08:16
KilosUthose were floppies08:16
charlvni remember i used to do that even on my mom's old pentium 108:16
KilosUthese small ones are actually stiffies08:16
charlvnfirst install dos, then install cd drivers, then windows08:16
charlvnyeah but people only call them stiffies in south africa08:17
charlvnoverseas it's considered rude ;)08:17
KilosUyip i remeber the dos installs08:17
KilosUwhew08:17
KilosUah08:17
charlvninternationally stiffies are known as 3,5 inch floppies08:17
charlvneven though they aren't floppy at all :)08:17
KilosUlol08:17
charlvnactually the whole floppy / stiffie naming is quite gross :P08:17
charlvnyou come to a noob and ask "do you have a floppy" and they get irritated with you08:18
KilosUlol08:19
KilosUmodern peeps have dirty minds08:19
tonberryE352minds have been dirty long before I was born08:20

DigiGramdo any of you guys have good and cheap ADSL routers to recommend?10:49
Squirmafternoon10:50
KilosUhi Squirm 10:50
KilosUwhat you wanna do DigiGram ?10:51
KilosUfor wqork?10:51
KilosUwork?10:51
DigiGramI'm getting ADSL at home, so I want an ADSL modem, but one with WiFi10:52
DigiGramI see they still sell some without wifi10:52
Squirmhmmm10:53
SquirmI would recommend a Netgear10:53
Squirmnot cheap, but it should last you quite a while10:53
DigiGramJust got that recommendation from someone else as well10:54
DigiGramI don't know the brands, and after I've used some D-Link gear at work, thats a no-go10:54
SquirmI used to supply the DGN100010:54
Squirmat cost from a supplier it was about R70010:54
Squirmbut I've had no returns10:55
DigiGramto get it going I'll get an el-cheapo, that I can keep as a spare later on10:55
KilosUDigiGram, how many pcs you wanna couple10:57
DigiGramMain HTPC can go via ethernet or wifi, laptop and room HTPC via wifi, and then 2 or 3 phones and iPad. On occasion another laptop or so10:58
Squirmmaybe look for a Trendnet modem? we use a few Trendnet products and they're reasonable. Haven't really had any issues with their switches/media converters/AP's10:58
DigiGramwill have a look thanx10:58
Squirmwe get them from a supplier. but I think I've seen the routers in somwhere like Incredible Corruption. So you could find it on the shelf somewhere11:00
tonberryE352just whatever you do, stay away from tenda11:00
DigiGramooh, takealot sells Trendnt11:00
DigiGram*trendnet11:00
DigiGramNetgear N150 DGN1000 WIRELESS ADSL2 + MODEM ROUTER for R599 looks good11:10
DigiGramor TrendNET 300Mbps for R50711:11
DigiGrammaybe a better deal11:11

Kilosinetpro, hoe kan iets so vinnig val18:45
Kilosisnt there supposed to be a terminal speed for falling objects18:46
Kiloslike 180mph or something18:46
Cantidehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_velocity18:47
inetproKilos: uh, what?18:47
inetproKilos: what are you talking about?18:48
Kilosfelix18:48
inetproahh18:48
KilosCantide, what speed does it give there18:48
Cantidedepends on drag18:49
inetproKilos: he was up there in the skies with very little resistance18:49
inetproin the stratosphere18:49
Kilosoh as in outa space18:49
inetproalmost18:49
magespawnvery close18:49
Cantidetherefore less drag18:49
amanicamagespawn: well It is only a couple of days so I think the only way to get them in time is to do it here.  Â£1.75 for 3 sheets +shipping18:49
Kilosthat is unbelievably fast if you think about it18:50
inetprowell there's still a long way to go before he would be outside I think18:50
amanicamagespawn: the quick quote I got was about 50c per 3x4cm sticker if you buy 55018:50
Kilosistnt outa space a vacuum18:50
inetprobut he went higher than the average wheather balloom18:50
magespawnamanica i am sure we can help cover the costs18:50
amanica(that is locally)18:50
Cantidehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_Velocity_%28video_game%29 does anyone remember this? :D18:51
magespawn39kms I think18:51
Cantideamanica, i am keen on a sticker18:51
Kilosthats faster than a 9mm bullet if i remember right18:52
Kilos1200fps18:52
Kiloscant work it out18:53
amanicayes magespawn, Cantide I think I'll get them made and sell them at cost, even post it locally if anybody is interested..18:53
Kilostoo tired18:53
magespawnkeep us posted amanica18:53
amanicacool18:53
Cantidei may want a few18:53
Cantideprovided i don't have to trade them for a kidney18:53
amanicalol18:54
Cantidewhat quality?18:54
Kiloslol18:54
Kiloswhat quality kidney18:54
magespawnjust watching Hak5 Toor Camp video18:54
amanicaCantide: I dont know what quality they will be, I think I must go pay them a visit and see. 18:54
Cantideokay :)18:55
Cantidethose aluminium ones look awesome, but probably too costly for everyone's taste18:55
amanicayeah.18:55
amanicaI can also get "domed" stickers but they cost R5!18:56
amanicawill get some in any case18:56
magespawnthat is not too bad I think18:56
Cantide"domed" ? those that bulge?18:56
Cantidei would pay R 5 for a sticker18:56
amanicaI think so yes. like a gell coat18:56
CantideR 10 even18:56
Cantideoh18:56
Cantidei prefer the aluminium ones '-'18:56
Cantidebut of course if many have to be made at once, then it'll have to be the same for everyone18:57
* Cantide goes with the flow18:57
amanicahttp://www.stickerprinters.co.za/index.php/domed-stickers  A domed sticker is the liquid polyurethane, which consists of honey, flows to the border of the vinyl shape and is trapped by capillary attraction to the border. The liquid is then cured to create a complete product with a 3D effect 18:58
magespawni think anything under R15 would be easy for most18:58
Kiloshubx, you must visit here all the time18:58
Kilosor stay not visit18:58
hubxKilos, yes I added it to permanent IRC list ;)18:59

CantideI even bought a better mouse, but i still dislike using it .-.19:35
Kilosyou guys dont have to look where you are typing19:35
Kilosmouse is one arrow to follow19:35
* inetpro is to lazy to lift the hand from the keyboard in order to find the mouse19:35

Cantidewhy does Twitter change it's API faster than I change underwear?19:37
Cantideits *19:37
inetprotumbleweed: so it was reading from the rss feed?19:37
inetproI think there's still a way to do that19:38
tumbleweedinetpro: the Atom feed19:38
tumbleweedwe switched to it, from the json API because the json API was excluding retweets19:38
tumbleweedno idea if that's been fixed19:38
Kiloswe need a python guy to make that patch19:39
Kilosone thats not busy all the time19:39
inetprotumbleweed: https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.rss?screen_name=inetpro19:39

tumbleweedthe relevant code is in ibid/plugins/social.py19:47
tumbleweedwe just need to investigate if we are still abiding by the terms of their API19:47
tumbleweedand whether the JSON API now does what we need19:47
* inetpro has never worked with JSON19:48
CantideJSON :'(19:48
Cantideit nearly drove me mad once19:49
Cantideand i gave up19:49
tumbleweedJSON is a really nice format to work with19:49
Cantidewhen you know what you're doing, i guess19:50
Cantidei didn't :)19:50
charlvnhi guys, sorry was afk for a bit19:54
charlvnwhat's up with the twitter thing? i got some experience with it19:54
charlvnso the problem is here: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ibid-core/ibid/trunk/view/head:/ibid/plugins/social.py19:56
charlvn?19:56
inetprocharlvn: what's the new way to talk to twitter, say I want the latest posting from inetpro19:57
charlvnMaaz: latest tweet from inetpro19:58
Maazcharlvn: No such twit19:58
charlvnthat's the problem right?19:58
charlvngive me one min19:58
inetproeh, yes :-)19:58
charlvnno problem, looking at it now19:58
charlvnok this is very irritating19:59
charlvnif i do this i get a full response: https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=inetpro20:00
charlvnif i do this i get a bad authentication code: https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=inetpro20:00
charlvnit used to be that you can just do a call anonymously20:00
charlvnbut in v1.1 of the api it seems like the bot needs to authenticate first?20:00
inetproexactly20:00
charlvnhttps://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/get/statuses/user_timeline20:00
charlvnthat's crap imho20:00
charlvn:(20:00
charlvntwitter has been tightening up it seems20:01
inetprocharlvn: especially when twitter is mostly public20:01
inetprothey are really tightening the screws20:02
charlvnyeah i don't like it20:04
charlvnthe one easiest way of doing this would be "scraping" the html20:04
charlvnthat's going to work nicely20:04
charlvnyeah imho that is the best way to do it, although it is going to need changing if twitter decides to restructure their html in some major way20:05
inetprocharlvn: scraping from?20:05
charlvni also don't know if it's against their terms of service20:05
charlvnreading the latest tweet directly from the html of the usual web page you see - https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/get/statuses/user_timeline20:06
charlvnah sorry - i meant to post http://twitter.com/inetpro20:06
inetproI think it's best to follow their recommended methods20:06
inetprothere's a lot of abuse 20:06
tumbleweedno, scraping will certainly be against the terms of service20:06
charlvnyou basically need this part: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1281872/20:07
tumbleweedif 1.1 requires authentication, we'll have to register ibid20:07
charlvnhmmm, yeah i thought as much20:07
inetproso I can understand some of the reasoning for tightening the screws20:07
charlvnwell that's probably the only option then20:07
charlvnyeah they are under heavy load and need high amounts of server resources20:07
inetprotumbleweed: ahh, that would be the way to do it20:07
charlvnalthough quite honestly i think the thing that helped make them popular in the first place is probably their easy api20:08
charlvnanyway, that's irrelevant now20:08
charlvnthe irritating thing about it is that you will need to pass the calls through oauth20:09
charlvnhttps://dev.twitter.com/docs/auth20:09
charlvnthat is not the simplest thing to do but it's not that hard either20:09
charlvnyou basically need to get a token and then use that token to "sign" the calls with20:10
inetprothey also have https://dev.twitter.com/opensource20:10
charlvnhttps://dev.twitter.com/docs/twitter-libraries#python20:11
charlvni would say just use one of those?20:11
inetprowow, so many libs20:13
inetprowhy is tweepy in bold?20:14
charlvni assume it's a recommended library20:20
charlvnprobably best to use that - has the biggest chance of being complete and up to date?20:20
charlvnalthough, the last change seems to be from 2 months ago20:20
charlvnnot too bad though20:20
charlvnthe mailing list seems active: https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/tweepy20:21
charlvnthey have an irc channel on freenode too - #tweepy20:21
inetprocharlvn: I think it's old20:23
charlvnthis one doesn't look too bad either: https://github.com/ryanmcgrath/twython20:23
charlvnmost of those look pretty old actually20:23
charlvni don't like that they don't even have an oauth example and this looks really outdated: http://tweepy.github.com/20:24
charlvntwitter dropped support for basic authentication years ago20:24
inetproyep20:24
charlvni have the best feeling about twython from those in the list20:24
charlvnbut that's at first glance20:24
inetproand python-twitter ?20:24
charlvnhttp://code.google.com/p/python-twitter/source/browse/20:25
charlvnnone of the code has been updated in 2012 it seems20:25
inetprohmm...20:25
charlvnthis is better: http://code.google.com/p/python-twitter/source/list20:25
inetproso maybe the whole libs page is outdated20:26
inetprohttps://dev.twitter.com/docs/twitter-libraries#python20:26
charlvnyeah i get that feeling20:27
charlvnmaybe it's worth asking here: https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!searchin/twitter-development-talk20:27
charlvnthis group is pretty active20:27
charlvnsorry this: https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/twitter-development-talk20:27
charlvnnew google groups links are weird :/20:28
inetprotrue20:28
inetprobut that forum also seems old20:29
charlvnam i looking at it wrong or is that group also dead now?!20:29
charlvnall the posts seem to be from 2011 - i used to belong to that group for a few years20:29
charlvnoh, they got their own system now: https://dev.twitter.com/discussions20:29
inetproahh20:30
charlvnsorry i am clearly out of date myself :)20:30
charlvn(i have not done much twitter-related development in the last two years or so)20:30
charlvni think last time when i did something i used this oauth2 library directly (not any twitter-specific libraries): https://github.com/simplegeo/python-oauth220:32
charlvnbut i also don't know if that is still the best library to use at the moment20:33
charlvnit was very actively developed at the time20:33
magespawngood night all20:33
inetpromagespawn: good night20:33
charlvni tried to do a search for "python" on the new discussions page but it asked me to login and i don't have an active account atm20:34
charlvnmagespawn: night!20:34
inetprocharlvn: https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/overview#JSON_support_only20:34
charlvnvery interesting20:35
charlvnyeah everything is moving to json20:35
charlvni also need to go, sorry it is getting late and i need to work tomorrow :)20:35
charlvnnn all20:35
inetprocharlvn: please keep digging there20:35
inetproeish20:35
