[06:21] Kilos: here's one for you [06:21] http://sourceforge.net/projects/suicide-linux/ [06:21] hi magespawn [06:21] I should plan to take some leave [06:21] Description [06:21] Encourages users not to misspell commands. Idea from http://qntm.org/suicide. Project modifies terminal configuration such that any incorrect/unknown commands inputted will delete all data on the hard drive (rm -rf /). [06:21] Kilos: I dunno. guess I'd have to travel 40min in [06:22] otherwise my boss lives on campus [06:22] but it hasn't happened yet [06:22] * Squirm touches his wooden desk the whole time [06:22] ah [06:22] lol [06:23] suicide-linux is a working OS [06:23] can't you remote in? [06:23] Kilos: no [06:23] it's a package you can install [06:23] oh just something you install here? [06:24] henkj: if the server crashes, no [06:24] Kilos: read that description I pasted of what it does [06:25] Squirm: hardware or OS crash? [06:25] henkj: either one :/ [06:26] if it's an OS crash, we'd have to restore from tape [06:26] ouch [06:27] Squirm, do i savvy it right. if you misspell a command it wipes your drive? [06:28] wb magespawn [06:28] Kilos: that is the idea [06:28] morning magespawn [06:28] Kilos: indeed [06:28] eeek no man 2+1 is not available anymore [06:28] if you install it in ubuntu does it pass the --no-preserve-root option? [06:28] Kilos: it's so you don't misspell commands [06:28] henkj: you also need to do that with RH [06:29] no no. thats not good [06:29] but idk [06:29] i mostly copy/paste commands i get from you guys [06:30] meh, have to use ddrescue to backup a 1Tb disk to a NAS. don't have that much space locally :/ [06:30] meant to start it last night. but kind of forgot [06:30] average 11mb/s [06:30] Maaz: 1000/11 [06:30] Squirm: 90.9090909091 [06:31] umm [06:31] Maaz: 1000000/11 [06:31] Squirm: 90909.0909091 [06:31] Maaz: 90909/60 [06:31] Squirm: 1515.15 [06:31] Maaz: 90909/60/60 [06:31] Squirm: 25.2525 [06:31] 25 hours [06:32] :/ [06:32] sounds more plausible [06:32] all to adjust a corrupt partition table :/ [06:32] Squirm: indeed, I spent a few days moving content from all my externals onto NAS [06:32] because I was sick of having externals [06:33] ouch [06:33] henkj: lol. yeah. everything of mine is internal [06:33] /dev/sdb1 917G 865G 5,5G 100% /media/disk2 [06:33] /dev/sda5 838G 791G 5,1G 100% /home [06:33] they're both 100% full :( [06:34] I've been collecting externals over the last few years, decided to replace them with 6TB raid when I could [06:34] well, almost [06:34] I have too many series/movies [06:36] at work, we have a Seagate Blackarmor. accessible only by staff and contains movies and series :P [06:36] well, the photo's section is accessible by pupils. [06:36] those blackarmor ones looked nice, but too expensive [06:36] 4.5Tb of free space currently [06:36] I bought a hp proliant microserver and put 4x2TB drives in it [06:37] those are nice [06:37] thing is. I like the fact that if I move my pc, all my stuff comes with [06:38] hmm... magespawn is todays yoyo [06:38] I can't remember the password for it :/ [06:39] I like being able to access my stuff acroos devices in the house now [06:40] gotcha [06:40] as long as they understand samba it works [06:40] henkj: it is nice, but I'd do that with my pc [06:41] ah, this blackarmor also has 4x2Tb drives [06:41] Squirm: I prefer not to leave my pc on all the time because it's so much more powerful than a NAS needs to be [06:42] does the blackarmor have it's own OS/webinterface or do you install your own OS on it? [06:43] it just has a webinterface [06:44] what's nice though, is it connects to our AD. so you can set group permissions on shares [06:44] ah that is nice [06:44] I eventually gave up trying to set up authentication with samba [06:45] I've also been meaning to hook up my printer to it [06:46] ah [06:46] I have setup an LTS with AD logins [06:48] henkj: http://sphotos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/188441_10151516315266670_324717987_n.jpg <<-- A friend of mine took that photo up here. brilliant!
