| Kilos | where you been | 17:10 |
| theblazehen | yeah. I've just been busy with exams and stuff. I've now moved to Arch though | 17:10 |
| Cantide | how is Arch? | 17:11 |
| Cantide | i almost moved to Arch about a year ago | 17:11 |
| Kilos | you like it? | 17:11 |
| Cantide | but i stuck it out with ubuntu and grew to like it again | 17:11 |
| theblazehen | quite nice and not really difficult at all. I enjoy it alot | 17:11 |
| Kilos | you gonne be here tomorrow evening at 19.30? | 17:11 |
| theblazehen | +Cantide perhaps you should install it in a VM?\ | 17:11 |
| Kilos | monthly meeting | 17:11 |
| theblazehen | yeah sure. | 17:12 |
| Cantide | maybe i will try it on a spare HDD | 17:12 |
| theblazehen | Good idea :) | 17:12 |
| Cantide | i don't like trying things in VM | 17:12 |
| Cantide | it's not the same.. | 17:12 |
| theblazehen | yeah me neither. | 17:12 |
| Cantide | Kilos, I will try :p | 17:12 |
| theblazehen | Anyone wanna see my desktop ? | 17:13 |
| Kilos | Cantide, dont try , do it | 17:13 |
| Kilos | be here | 17:13 |
| Cantide | :p | 17:13 |

| Kilos | lol | 17:15 |
| theblazehen | Cantide thanks | 17:15 |

| Kilos | and the gray kde one | 17:15 |
| theblazehen | not sure which one... | 17:15 |
| Cantide | theblazehen, looks good to me! | 17:16 |
| Kilos | whew you gotta wait some i sukkel to get images somewhre | 17:16 |
| Cantide | I would run that :) | 17:16 |
| Cantide | theblazehen, do you have a link to your background? although i can only really use it if i run Arch lol | 17:16 |
| theblazehen | +Cantide thanks. How does yours look? | 17:16 |
| theblazehen | gimme a min | 17:17 |
| Cantide | https://dl.dropbox.com/u/36318710/Screenshot.png like so... but my desktop is usually clean - just got some stuff on there while i sort my HDDs out | 17:18 |
| theblazehen | +cantide i dont have a link but I can upload a 1920x1080 or 1024x600 for you | 17:19 |
| Kilos | how do i do this image thing Cantide | 17:19 |
| Kilos | to where | 17:19 |
| theblazehen | +cantide http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lltzgnHi5F1qzib3wo1_400.jpg | 17:20 |
| nlsthzn | *yawn*] | 17:20 |
| Cantide | i took the pic of snow myself, too :) | 17:20 |
| theblazehen | +Kilos try apt-get install scrot | 17:20 |
| Cantide | Kilos, I'm using dropbox... maybe you can use tinypic? | 17:20 |
| Cantide | oh.. | 17:20 |
| theblazehen | +Cantide nice pic | 17:20 |
| Cantide | or that :p | 17:20 |
| theblazehen | scrot will take SCReenshOT | 17:21 |
| Cantide | theblazehen, 1920 x 1080 please :) | 17:21 |
| Kilos | taking forever to get to imageshack | 17:21 |
| Cantide | Ubuntu already has a screenshot app | 17:21 |
| Cantide | which works nicely imho | 17:21 |
| Kilos | http://imageshack.us/content_round.php?page=done&l=img842/1083/66851625.png | 17:21 |
| Cantide | but the uploading.. yeah.. that's up to Kilos :p | 17:21 |
| Kilos | messy | 17:21 |
| theblazehen | +Cantide gimme a minute | 17:22 |
| Squirm | hmm | 17:22 |
| * Squirm puts xubuntu on his netbook | 17:22 | |
| Kerbero | i like lubuntu better for a netbook | 17:22 |
| Squirm | yeah | 17:23 |
| Kilos | lo Kerbero | 17:23 |
| Squirm | not a fan of lxde | 17:23 |
| theblazehen | http://imgur.com/JteOA | 17:23 |
| Cantide | also, be jealous of my lamp -> https://dl.dropbox.com/u/36318710/P1010008.JPG | 17:23 |
| Squirm | so I'll try fxce first | 17:23 |
| Squirm | don't really like it much either | 17:23 |
| Squirm | but it's lighter than Mint | 17:23 |
| Cantide | theblazehen, tyvm! saved on my desktop lol :p | 17:24 |
| theblazehen | +Kilos not really much differences between all unity desktop hey? | 17:24 |
| Kilos | yeah i got hooked on the background with 8.10 | 17:25 |
| Cantide | Kilos, your setup looks very vanilla :p | 17:25 |
| theblazehen | +Cantide no problem | 17:25 |
| Kilos | whats vanilla apart from flavouring | 17:25 |
| Cantide | unchanged, standard | 17:25 |
| nlsthzn | unity ftw ... my system is also stock at the moment (then again it is another fresh install) | 17:26 |
| Kilos | oh ya i dont mess with things | 17:26 |
| theblazehen | Kilos: why not? | 17:26 |
| Kilos | on kde i got one workspace with a kiff background but forgot how i did it so other 9 are gray | 17:26 |
| Cantide | mine is a fresh install + faenza icons | 17:27 |
| Cantide | that's it... and a few apps of course | 17:27 |
| Kilos | theblazehen, im scared i break things | 17:27 |
| nlsthzn | +1 for faenza | 17:27 |
| Kilos | this unity install has been very stable and reliable | 17:27 |
| Kilos | hi nlsthzn | 17:27 |
| nlsthzn | also, the guy that created faenza is creating some icons for ubuntu now :) | 17:27 |
| theblazehen | Kilos: dd if=/dev/sda of=external_hdd | 17:27 |
| nlsthzn | how are you uncle Kilos , all | 17:28 |
| Kilos | good ty nlsthzn and there | 17:28 |
| Kilos | dont say always good | 17:28 |
| Kilos | truth | 17:28 |
| nlsthzn | sometimes good thanks | 17:28 |
| nlsthzn | like now :p | 17:28 |
| Kilos | you also get flu | 17:28 |
| Kilos | arab flu | 17:28 |
| Kilos | hehe | 17:28 |
| Cantide | nlsthzn, yeah, i heard about that :) i bet 13.04 will look nice :) | 17:28 |
| nlsthzn | yeah, about time | 17:29 |
| Kilos | whew theblazehen im even more scared of dd commands | 17:29 |
| Kilos | the fly says stay away from them | 17:29 |
| theblazehen | yeah. mixed them up once when I tried to restore from backup :/ | 17:30 |
| Cantide | :\ | 17:30 |
| Kilos | lol | 17:30 |
| Kilos | i use the one to zero a drive and the one to copy mbr to another drive | 17:30 |
| theblazehen | ah. Ever use it for it's intended purpuse ... to Destroy Disk ? | 17:31 |
| Squirm | I use it for writing ISO's to a flashdrive | 17:31 |
| Squirm | along with indirectly using it to clone hdd's | 17:31 |
| nlsthzn | I made my ubuntu iso 0kb when I got it the wrong way around :/ | 17:31 |
| Squirm | with Clonezilla | 17:32 |
| Squirm | lol nlsthzn | 17:32 |
| theblazehen | +Squirm tried that once with an iso from remastersys. didn't wokr | 17:32 |
| Squirm | I did that with my Rasbian | 17:32 |
| Squirm | theblazehen: works well | 17:32 |
| theblazehen | +Squirm how is the Pi ? | 17:32 |
| * Squirm shrugs | 17:32 | |
| theblazehen | ok | 17:32 |
| Squirm | haven't found much use for it | 17:32 |
| theblazehen | ever think of xbmc ? | 17:32 |
| Kerbero | xbmc is awesome on the pi | 17:33 |
| Squirm | no need for it | 17:33 |
| Kerbero | it supports CEC | 17:33 |
| Squirm | yeah | 17:33 |
| Kerbero | but it can't handle my media collection | 17:33 |
| theblazehen | +Kerbero why not? | 17:33 |
| Squirm | that's the only issue, it's slow | 17:33 |
| Squirm | but I see they come with 512Mb of RAM now :/ | 17:34 |
| Squirm | I'm annoyed with that | 17:34 |
| Kerbero | mine is 512 | 17:34 |
| Kerbero | but it has a hardware bug | 17:34 |
| theblazehen | +Squirm TBH it's graphics is better than my netbook | 17:34 |
| Kerbero | crash when it heats up | 17:34 |
| theblazehen | +Kerbero Buy a small freezer | 17:34 |
| Cantide | there is a board that supplements the Pi which interfaces with various things | 17:35 |
| Kilos | wbb gotta go eat | 17:35 |
| Cantide | so you can have it drive servos | 17:35 |
| Cantide | or control something | 17:35 |
| Cantide | which is really cool | 17:35 |
| Cantide | i could put one in my lamp and have it connected to the internet so that i can control my lamp remotely! '-' | 17:36 |
| Kerbero | nah the pi is overkill for that | 17:37 |
| theblazehen | +cantide how about doing that with a video feed and let people on the internet turn it on and of | 17:38 |
| theblazehen | f | 17:38 |
| Kerbero | just use a avr+eth module | 17:38 |
| Cantide | that would be fun :) | 17:38 |
| Cantide | just need a pi, that board, a cam.. eh | 17:38 |
| Kerbero | Cantide: http://www.jpmeijers.com/powermeter/ | 17:38 |
| Kerbero | i use an arduino for that | 17:38 |
| Kerbero | also a bit overkill though | 17:38 |
| Kerbero | a pic would've worked fine | 17:38 |
| Cantide | very nice :) | 17:39 |
| theblazehen | +Kerbero whats the cause for the daily electricity spike ? | 17:39 |
| Kerbero | geyser on a timer | 17:39 |
| theblazehen | ok | 17:40 |
| theblazehen | and whats up with weekly temperature | 17:40 |
| Kerbero | you can see on the daily graph i turned my computer on at 13:30 | 17:40 |
| Kerbero | and the hourly dips are the fridge | 17:41 |
| Kerbero | the temperature is normal as it is colder at night | 17:41 |
| * theblazehen facepalms | 17:41 | |
| theblazehen | anyone hear about http://project-byzantium.org/ | 17:42 |
| theblazehen | ? | 17:42 |
| Kerbero | urgh, i'm still full of glitter from last night | 17:42 |
| theblazehen | +Kerbero what happened last night ? | 17:43 |
| theblazehen | /join #reddit | 17:43 |
| nlsthzn | theblazehen: can never be to prepared for zombies | 17:43 |
| theblazehen | +nlsthzn I think its a nice concept that i would like to try out | 17:44 |
| Kerbero | theblazehen: MCQP | 17:45 |
| theblazehen | ok | 17:46 |
| Kerbero | i wonder what protocol byzatium uses | 17:47 |
| theblazehen | Think its on their about page | 17:47 |
| Kerbero | likely batman | 17:47 |
| theblazehen | "At this moment in time, Byzantium has packaged two mesh protocols for full-scale testing, Babel and BATMAN-advanced. Rather than quote their documentation verbatim I encourage you to take a look at the projects’ introductory documentation and see for yourselves why we chose these two protocols." | 17:48 |
| Kerbero | ahh ok | 17:48 |
| theblazehen | yeah. | 17:49 |
| Kerbero | i'm actually doing my masters on ad hoc networks | 17:49 |
| Kerbero | but on low speed telemetry networks | 17:50 |
| theblazehen | +Kerbero awesome. Can you please explain the basic differences between them ? | 17:50 |
| Kerbero | between mesh and ad-hoc? | 17:50 |
| Kerbero | or between the different protocols? | 17:50 |
| theblazehen | different mesh protocols | 17:51 |
| Kerbero | well mainly it has to do with what they use as metric | 17:51 |
| Kerbero | metric is the thing that gives weight or priority to routes/links | 17:51 |
| theblazehen | what do you mean by "what they use as metric" | 17:51 |
| theblazehen | oh | 17:51 |
| Kerbero | some will try to save power | 17:51 |
| Kerbero | while others will try and get the shortest path | 17:52 |
| Kerbero | some guarantees delivery with an extra overhead | 17:52 |
| Kerbero | while other go for speed | 17:52 |
| Kerbero | you can't have your cake and eat it | 17:53 |
| Squirm | .:Cantide:. i could put one in my lamp and have it connected to the internet so that i can control my lamp remotely! '-' <<--- I'd use it to control my house remotely | 17:53 |
| Kerbero | but the computer scientists try to | 17:53 |
| Squirm | .:Cantide:. there is a board that supplements the Pi which interfaces with various things <<--- Gertboard is one of them | 17:53 |
| Cantide | Squirm, well that, too, but i need to start somewhere :p | 17:53 |
| Kerbero | Squirm: indeed that will be a better use for it | 17:53 |
| theblazehen | +Kerbero why can't they both save power and take the shortest path ? wouldn't taking the shortest path lead to less power usage as less power is used passing the message/ | 17:53 |
| Cantide | Squirm, Gertboard is exactly what I was thinking of :) | 17:53 |
| Squirm | .:Kerbero:. but it has a hardware bug <-- Try stick a small heatsink on the cpu? | 17:53 |
| Kerbero | theblazehen: going over a mountain vs going around | 17:53 |
| Kerbero | Squirm: i did :P | 17:53 |
| Squirm | :P | 17:54 |
| theblazehen | ok I get it. (I think) | 17:54 |
| Squirm | I saw someone stick and LMR90(Analogue Thermometer) onto the CPU and automatically control a cooling unit | 17:54 |
| Kerbero | if you use solar panels to power the nodes, going through a forest will be more costly as around it | 17:54 |
| Squirm | was overkill, but cool to see it work | 17:54 |
| Squirm | bbl, food | 17:54 |
| theblazehen | +Kerbero which one is BATMAN and which one is Babel. | 17:54 |
| Kerbero | i don't really know those two that well | 17:55 |
| theblazehen | +Kerbero. ok . Do you believe that mesh networks will be able to build an alternative to the internet freenet style | 17:55 |
| Kerbero | no | 17:56 |
| Kerbero | longer links = slower speed | 17:56 |
| Kerbero | there are internasional wireless ad-hoc networks up and running | 17:57 |
| Kerbero | but you can't use them for anything more than text messages | 17:57 |
| Kerbero | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_link_establishment | 17:57 |
| theblazehen | +Kerbero Thats why I mentioned freenet. Each user stores parts of websites and then others connect to them and ask for the part and if it's not available they ask the neext node | 17:58 |
| Kerbero | on small scale i can see that can work | 17:58 |
| Kerbero | but it won't scale that well | 17:59 |
| Kerbero | too much overhead | 17:59 |
| theblazehen | +Kerberos. Ok | 17:59 |
| Kerbero | and it also won't work for dynamic websites | 17:59 |
| Kerbero | well i have to go | 17:59 |
| Kerbero | chat later! | 17:59 |
| theblazehen | +Kerbero why would there be too much overhead ? | 17:59 |
| theblazehen | by Kerbero | 18:00 |
| smile | hi :) | 18:00 |
| theblazehen | hi smile | 18:00 |
| Kerbero | hi en bye smile | 18:00 |
| smile | Kerbero: :( | 18:00 |
| smile | byeee :) | 18:00 |
| Kerbero | gaan hou vir jaendre geselskap | 18:00 |
| smile | hi theblazehen :) | 18:00 |

| theblazehen | +Kilos ok. BTW if it wasn't for Ubuntu and Kubntu CD's I would not be using linux today | 18:05 |
| Kilos | nuvolari, ping | 18:05 |
| Kilos | lol | 18:05 |
| theblazehen | Must say i didn't like gnome2 that much | 18:05 |
| Kilos | oo i prefer it to everything | 18:05 |
| nlsthzn | I see there is still some info missing, like how many people on IRC etc... do we have that someplace or should we remove the ???? | 18:06 |
| Cantide | i liked gnome2 <3 | 18:06 |
| Kilos | still run maverick on one pc | 18:06 |
| theblazehen | I remember having a 8.04 Kubuntu and a 9.04 ubuntu and i still used kubuntu | 18:06 |
| theblazehen | +Kilos why not mate ? | 18:06 |
| Kilos | i dunno nlsthzn we change here so much | 18:06 |
| nlsthzn | just something to keep in mind then before tuesday | 18:07 |
| Kilos | i used mate here theblazehen but it stopped giving me sound on xchat so removed it | 18:07 |
| Kilos | mate is good | 18:07 |
| theblazehen | kilos perhaps it broke something? | 18:07 |
| Kilos | yeah theblazehen but finding what was too much work | 18:08 |
| Kilos | so now we unity and kubuntu | 18:08 |
| theblazehen | Ah. | 18:08 |
| Kilos | and maverick of course for serious stuff | 18:08 |
| theblazehen | personally i dont have much internet so im forced to fix stuff | 18:09 |
| Kilos | me too | 18:09 |
| Kilos | been a boon getting 8ta last bunch of months | 18:09 |
| Kilos | there were times i stretched 100 meg a month | 18:10 |
| superfly | nlsthzn: I've got a sort of a list of people in Ubuntu-ZA over the last year or so, I need to fix it up though | 18:10 |
| Kilos | hiya superfly | 18:10 |
| theblazehen | i HAVE A 10 gig CAP. | 18:10 |
| nlsthzn | superfly: time is few :p | 18:10 |
| superfly | hi Kilos | 18:10 |
| superfly | nlsthzn: yeah, I know, but tomorrow is a public holiday here :-) | 18:11 |
| nlsthzn | ah because today is a sunday... ah ok, nice | 18:11 |
| Kilos | 10 G and you say you dont have much. hehe | 18:11 |
| nlsthzn | ah, why am I typing ah so ah much | 18:11 |
| * superfly doesn't know how he'd survive on a cap anymore | 18:11 | |
| Kilos | murder hey superfly | 18:12 |
| nlsthzn | +1 | 18:12 |
| theblazehen | +Kilos I like my torrents... Also it's for the whole family. | 18:12 |
| superfly | Ah, no wonder I'm not getting alerts here... I'm still logged in on my phone... | 18:12 |
| nlsthzn | got to say the 1gb cap on my android is working out... very efficient use of info | 18:12 |
| nlsthzn | lol | 18:12 |
| nlsthzn | http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/12/new-dash-icons-proposed-for-ubuntu-13-04 | 18:12 |
| Kilos | but all the time with min data taught me how to stretch things | 18:12 |
| * superfly logs off his phone | 18:12 | |
| superfly | that should work better | 18:12 |
| Kilos | hope maia is here tomorrow evening | 18:13 |
| superfly | nlsthzn: with wifi at work and at home, my 500 meg databundle on my phone was just not being used, figured it was costing me more than just taking the R2/meg out-of-bundle | 18:14 |
| theblazehen | who's maia? | 18:14 |
| superfly | the LoCo co-ordinator | 18:14 |
| Kilos | our team contact | 18:14 |
| Kilos | maiatoday | 18:14 |
| theblazehen | +superfly why not cellc? they have R0.99 / MB | 18:14 |
| nlsthzn | superfly: I am also finding I am not fully using my data... have the wifi at home and I am not allowed my phone at work :/ | 18:14 |
| theblazehen | +superfly+kilos ok | 18:14 |
| superfly | theblazehen: I've been on Vodacom for the last 10 years and I'm not lus to go to the effort of porting my number | 18:15 |
| theblazehen | thought it was easy ? | 18:15 |
| superfly | theblazehen: also, my phone is not the only one on my account | 18:15 |
| theblazehen | +superfly ok thats a bit more effort ... | 18:16 |
| superfly | theblazehen: I'd also have to find Cell C equivalents of the contracts myself and my wife have | 18:16 |
| theblazehen | +superfly ok | 18:16 |
| superfly | theblazehen: it's not like it's a huge cost every month... my and my wife's cellphone bills together almost never exceed R400/month | 18:17 |
| superfly | and without the data bundle, that'll be lowered to R250/month | 18:17 |
| theblazehen | ok. | 18:17 |
| Kilos | superfly, you need a long leave | 18:17 |
| theblazehen | Also anyone see linux format is available at exclusive books? | 18:18 |
| superfly | theblazehen: aka, the effort to go to Cell C is likely far more hassle than the R3/month I'm saving going to Cell C | 18:18 |
| theblazehen | ok | 18:18 |
| theblazehen | lol | 18:18 |
| theblazehen | thats not much data. | 18:18 |
| superfly | theblazehen: never really bought those magazines, they go out of date too quickly | 18:18 |
| theblazehen | do you have sync disabled? | 18:18 |
| superfly | theblazehen: I don't have an Android | 18:19 |
| nlsthzn | eeeek | 18:19 |
| theblazehen | +superfly yeah but the DVD's have nice stuff. | 18:19 |
| Kilos | lol | 18:19 |
| superfly | theblazehen: that I can't download with my uncapped internet? | 18:19 |
| theblazehen | +superfly ok. I was wondering how you did it | 18:19 |
| * nlsthzn strokes his S3... there there... it will be ok... | 18:19 | |
| theblazehen | +superfly true... | 18:19 |
| theblazehen | +nlsthzn I have S2 with CM10 | 18:20 |
| superfly | theblazehen: I *mostly* use the data on my phone for IRC and a little bit of browsing | 18:20 |
| Kilos | the fly has a cool fone | 18:20 |
| * superfly has a REAL Linux phone | 18:20 | |
| theblazehen | +superfly what phone do you have? meego? | 18:20 |
| superfly | theblazehen: Maemo, the N900 | 18:20 |
| nlsthzn | theblazehen: running my s3 with a Resurrection Remix ROM.... gives me JB 4.1.2 with some 4.2 apps | 18:20 |
| theblazehen | +superfly ok | 18:20 |
| theblazehen | +nlsthzn ok. Never really understood why people choose non-AOSP ROM's. Any advantages as I might upgrade to 4.2 soon | 18:21 |
| nlsthzn | RR is based on CM which is based on AOSP if I am not mistaken | 18:22 |
| Kilos | inetpro, ping | 18:22 |
| Kilos | hes gonna say we talk too much again | 18:22 |
| nlsthzn | :) | 18:23 |
| Kilos | hehe | 18:23 |
| theblazehen | +nlsthzn ok. Just wondering about RR vs CM | 18:23 |
| superfly | theblazehen: you don't need to add the + in front of our names | 18:24 |
| nlsthzn | CM has to many holes with the S3 that they don't care to fix... so even with RR somethings aren't working and some things are wonky :/ | 18:24 |
| theblazehen | Just a habbit... | 18:24 |
| theblazehen | ah. whats wrong with the S3 | 18:24 |
| superfly | theblazehen: also, if you press the tab key, it can autocomplete nicks | 18:24 |
| Kilos | from where theblazehen | 18:25 |

| Kilos | my multitasking is breathing while i type | 18:27 |
| theblazehen | haha yeah I can barely reddit and IRC | 18:27 |

| Kilos | only tried once there for help | 18:28 |
| theblazehen | also #linux | 18:28 |

| theblazehen | It works well enough... Why should I use a alternative IRC client ? | 18:44 |
| Kilos | the scroll back | 18:44 |

| superfly | magespawn: yeah, I was just about to search there | 19:05 |
| superfly | magespawn: ah, use "Faster Application Manager" - you can select multiple packages at the same time | 19:06 |
| superfly | it's more like a traditional Linux package manager | 19:06 |
| magespawn | Installing | 19:09 |
| magespawn | will be good to have it on the phone | 19:11 |
| magespawn | of course takes for ever to update the phone | 19:16 |
| superfly | magespawn: yeah, that's a pain | 19:16 |
| Kilos | superfly, with 2 mice you got one or 2 of them arrow goodies | 19:18 |

| Kilos | you gotta install for it to be able to give you the option | 19:33 |
| magespawn | why did you need diskmagic to do that Kilos? | 19:33 |
| Kilos | no man diskmagic is to fix seagate drives | 19:34 |
| Kilos | like seatools but thats in dos | 19:34 |
| magespawn | ahh right | 19:34 |
| Kilos | diskmagic is the gui goodie | 19:34 |
| Kilos | once installed you can burn a cd or get the iso and use another ap to burn it | 19:35 |
| Kilos | grrr | 19:35 |
| magespawn | no luck updating the repos here superfly | 19:35 |
| Kilos | diskwizard not magic | 19:35 |

| superfly | magespawn: not sure what you're asking me... I have a WiFi network at work, and one at home, so I use ADSL over WiFi most of the time | 19:41 |
| superfly | magespawn: well, when installing stuff | 19:41 |
| superfly | for IRC and things I am usually out, so I'm using 3G | 19:42 |
| Kilos | nope it wont let me write anything to it magespawn | 19:42 |
| Kilos | grrr | 19:42 |
| Kilos | thats what the diskwizard is for | 19:42 |

| theblazehen | Yeah. strange . | 19:48 |
| Squirm | dd is fun | 19:48 |
| theblazehen | except when you are doing backups and mix up if and of | 19:48 |
| Squirm | especially making a Gb file with zero data :P | 19:48 |
| theblazehen | bitch please 30 GB swap file here :/ | 19:49 |
| magespawn | Squrim can be lots of fun if you mix if and of with an empty and a full disk | 19:49 |
| Squirm | ^^ | 19:49 |
| magespawn | lol | 19:49 |
