[06:52] <Superhuman> damn, another Friday...I dislike Fridays...Mondays however are awesome!
[06:52] <Kilos> hahaha
[06:52] <magespawn> so this guy comes into the shop today looking for cable for his projector, only takes RCA, so i now need to find a vga to rca converter
[06:53] <magespawn> this thing was left behind when they all got on the ark
[06:53] <Superhuman> Mondays are awesome, because all my enemies are miserable!
[06:53] <magespawn> lol @Superhuman
[06:53] <Kilos> aw , you got enemies Superhuman 
[06:53] <Kilos> already
[06:54] <Squirm> lol magespawn 
[06:55] <Superhuman> Kilos: "You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life." - Winston Churchill
[06:55] <Kilos> lol
[06:56] <magespawn> indeed, ut means that you taken a stand on something and did not budge
[06:58] <magespawn> s/ut/it
[06:59] <Superhuman> enemies(colleagues) keep you incheck, they are sometimes your best motivators, and biggest fans.
[07:02] <ThatGraemeGuy> morning peeps
[07:02] <Kilos> hi ThatGraemeGuy 
[07:02] <Superhuman> morning
[07:03] <magespawn> this is the projector http://www.google.co.za/imgres?imgurl=http://party-verleih-koeln.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Sanyo-PLC-200-P-Video-Beamer.jpg&imgrefurl=http://party-verleih-koeln.de/product/sanyo-plc-200-video-beamer-grossbildprojektor/sanyo-plc-200-p-video-beamer/&h=480&w=640&sz=52&tbnid=Dc_bv-kdbzRRWM:&tbnh=88&tbnw=117&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dsanyo%2BPLC-200p%2Bpictures%26tbm%3Disch%26tbo%3Du&zoom=1&q=sanyo+PLC-

[07:04] <magespawn> sorry about the link
[07:04] <Kilos> whew magespawn use maaz to shorten that kinda link
[07:04] <magespawn> did not look to see how long it was
[07:04] <Kilos> it comes on xchat as 2 posts so can use it anyway
[07:05] <magespawn> hold on
[07:05] <Kilos> cannot
[07:05] <magespawn> http://is.gd/ZVOrVJ
[07:06] <Kilos> much better hey
[07:06] <Superhuman> Kilos: how do I tell Maaz to tinyurl it?
[07:07] <magespawn> indeed
[07:07] <Kilos> just maaz shorten
[07:07] <Kilos> magespawn,  give that full link to QA lets she if she also splits it to 2 posts
[07:08] <magespawn> private chat then "Maaz shorten 'link to be shortened'" without the quotes 
[07:08] <ThatGraemeGuy> that doesn't really help if the URL is too long to fit in a single message :P
[07:09] <magespawn> Kilos this is what QA gave me http://is.gd/ZVOrVJ
[07:09] <Kilos> if you pm or query maaz then he accepts whatever you post ThatGraemeGuy 
[07:09] <magespawn> identical
[07:10]  * Superhuman still prefers goo.gl for urls shortening, since I can track views/stats on the url in my google account
[07:10] <Kilos> no man i meant post the link in my channel, sorry
[07:10] <magespawn> okay
[07:10] <Kilos> i get kinda mixed up at times
[07:10] <magespawn> no worries
[07:11] <Kilos> oh its an irc thing
[07:11] <Kilos> freenode thing
[07:11] <ThatGraemeGuy> Kilos, that may be, but if the URL is too long, it's too long, whether its a privmsg or not
[07:12] <ThatGraemeGuy> think its 512 chars IIRC
[07:12] <Kilos> only allows 6 lines at a time
[07:12] <Superhuman> It avoids flooding in a channel
[07:12] <tonberryE352> how on earth is a url that long?
[07:12] <Kilos> well at least the ibid bots shorten it ok
[07:12] <Superhuman> IRC used to be like wild west before that restriction came in
[07:13] <Kilos> yeah Superhuman they been working on upgrades to fix flooding etc
[07:13] <Superhuman> tonberryE352: I know, right? AFAIK, the RFC calls for a max length of 256 chars for all urls...naturally google doesn't listen.
[07:13] <Kilos> had many ddos attacks too
[07:14] <Kilos> havent had serious net splits for a while now
[07:15] <Kilos> hi tonberryE352 
[07:15] <Superhuman> In the old days (giving age away) with dialup, you could hang/flood a connection on irc with just 10 lines of text. Thus they capped one message to less than 10 lines
[07:15] <tonberryE352> hi kilos
[07:16] <ThatGraemeGuy> uhm, Superhuman where do you see that 256-char limit?
[07:16] <ThatGraemeGuy> afaik its not specifically limited, but there's a de facto limit somewhere around 2,000 chars
[07:19] <Superhuman> can't seem to find it in the rfc. might be something to do with SEO limits then...my bad
[07:20]  * Superhuman just knows, long url = bad web development
[07:21] <superfly> the RFC says URLS should be no longer than 8000 chars, but Apache cuts it off at 4000
[07:21] <Kilos> but that one was really exceptionally long
[07:22] <Kilos> magespawn, if you got playtime see if imageshack or one one the other sites do a better job than google
[07:23] <Kilos> just for interests sake that is
[07:23] <magespawn> that was from a google search not an upload
[07:23] <Kilos> because maaz fixes it quite well
[07:23] <tonberryE352> i have seen google embed thumbnails in urls
[07:23] <Kilos> ah
[07:23] <tonberryE352> once pasted one of those in irc by mistake, server did not like me
[07:23] <Kilos> lol
[07:24] <magespawn> http://party-verleih-koeln.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Sanyo-PLC-200-P-Video-Beamer.jpg
[07:24] <magespawn> that is the original link
[07:24] <magespawn> page
[07:25] <ThatGraemeGuy> http://slexy.org/view/s20OPHDJ0t
[07:25] <ThatGraemeGuy> RFC does not impose a limit
[07:25] <ThatGraemeGuy> http://www.boutell.com/newfaq/misc/urllength.html
[07:26] <ThatGraemeGuy> IE has a limit of 2,083 chars, so that's your de facto limit due to market share
[07:26] <ThatGraemeGuy> interestingly, IIS' limit is 16,384 chars, despite the fact that IE would reject that length
[07:26] <ThatGraemeGuy> well done Microsoft
[07:27] <Kilos> ohi superfly 
[07:29] <magespawn> morning superfly
[07:29] <superfly> hi Kilos, magespawn
[07:29] <magespawn> ThatGraemeGuy: did you find your problem
[07:29] <Kilos> watch the pro complain about long scroll back
[07:29] <magespawn> ?
[07:29] <Kilos> oh ya the server prob?
[07:29] <magespawn> when he eventually gets here
[07:30] <Kilos> he is most likely lurking
[07:30] <ThatGraemeGuy> i haven't looked at it yet, it isn't terribly urgent
[07:30] <ThatGraemeGuy> our dns servers are pretty much never down, so we just need to patch them after hours until i figure it out
[07:32] <magespawn> does anyone know if e-tolling is on? i thought they were already going ahead with that.
[07:33] <ThatGraemeGuy> where?
[07:35] <ThatGraemeGuy> http://www.iol.co.za/news/south-africa/western-cape/cape-town-tolls-different-says-sanral-1.1499070#.UWe5AWYqskc
[07:35] <ThatGraemeGuy> Gauteng starting in 2 months, CT still being opposed by City of Cape Town
[07:35] <ThatGraemeGuy> and they want to put toll plazas in CT apparently
[07:35] <ThatGraemeGuy> ew
[07:47] <magespawn> looks like the trade unions are getting involved in gauteng
[08:00] <Kilos> hi Jabberwocky psyatw Vince-0 
[08:01] <Vince-0> Haai
[08:01] <Vince-0> always quick on the draw there Kilos 
[08:01] <Kilos> only  when im here 
[08:01] <Kilos> hehe
[08:01] <psyatw> hi Kilos 
[08:01] <psyatw> hi Vince-0 
[08:06] <magespawn> just got a pentium 3 up and running with DSL, was getting some horrible colours, so i put in an old graphics card, and hey presto everything works
[08:06] <magespawn> so win 98 that was on there
[08:06] <magespawn> much^
[08:07] <magespawn> that should read 'so much for win 98 that was on there'
[08:07] <psyatw> hello magespawn 
[08:07] <magespawn> hey psyatw
[08:07] <magespawn> hey Vince-0
[08:08] <Kilos> them p3's actually went wel with 98
[08:08] <magespawn> i think this one has problem on the hard drive
[08:09] <Kilos> whats it doing?
[08:10] <Kilos> i actually started with ubuntu on a p3
[08:10] <magespawn> just does not boot, disk boot failure please insert boot disk and press enter to continue
[08:11] <Kilos> just boot from cd and do fdisk /mby then reinstall
[08:11] <Kilos>   fix /mbr
[08:11] <magespawn> next two things to check. the add on network card and see if the bios support usb boot
[08:11] <Kilos> it wont i think
[08:12] <Kilos> but went up to 10.10 on the p3
[08:12] <magespawn> probable not
[08:13] <Kilos> usbs you had to add in a card and install the drivers for winsucks
[08:13] <Kilos> but ubuntu saw it straight off
[08:13] <magespawn> indeed but if the bios has not got usb boot support then it is no go anyway
[08:14] <magespawn> dsl sees the usb ports
[08:15] <Kilos> no but it can then see a usb mouse
[08:15] <Kilos> hehe
[08:15] <Kilos> ubuntu didnt like the old mouse
[08:15] <Kilos> what you wanna do with a p3
[08:16] <Kilos> server
[08:19] <magespawn> maybe 
[08:19] <magespawn> or something for the kids
[08:20] <Kilos> ah
[08:21] <magespawn> looks like it will run ubuntu server without too much sweat
[08:21] <Kilos> i spent many months with red alert on a p3 and 98
[08:21] <Kilos> yeah server will work well
[09:24] <inetpro> good morning
[09:24] <inetpro> is it Friday yet?
[09:24] <magespawn>  indeed, good morning
[09:24] <Kilos> morning inetpro 
[09:25] <inetpro> Kilos: ai! 
[09:25] <inetpro> jy praat te veel nonsens 
[09:25] <Kilos> ai! me again
[09:25] <inetpro> Kilos: hoe verwag jy moet ek alles lees?
[09:25] <Kilos> rofl
[09:26] <psyatw> hi inetpro 
[09:26] <psyatw> good morning
[09:26] <Kilos> met moeite
[09:26] <inetpro> psyatw: hi
[09:26] <magespawn> Kilos: the p3 has a 20gig drive and it looks okay
[09:26] <Kilos> magespawn, told you
[09:26] <magespawn> hah lol
[09:26] <inetpro> ThatGraemeGuy: you posted some interesting limits there, thanks
[09:27] <magespawn> inetpro: you getting predictable
[09:27] <ThatGraemeGuy> :)
[09:27]  * inetpro always thought there was a limit of 256 characters
[09:27] <inetpro> but recently google has really gone overboard
[09:27] <Kilos> magespawn, i still dunno what a server actually must do but if 20g is big enough then yay
[09:28] <Kilos> oh my he actually thought!!
[09:28] <inetpro> Kilos: eish!
[09:28] <Kilos> musta hurt some
[09:28] <inetpro> some times
[09:28] <magespawn> easily, requirement is 1gig
[09:28] <Kilos> lol skuus man
[09:29] <Kilos> no magespawn i mean whether it needs space to actually do what it is supposed to
[09:29] <magespawn> that depends on what you want/need
[09:29] <Kilos> thats what i dunno
[09:30] <Kilos> like is it sposed to store stuff for later use etc
[09:30] <magespawn> well for me i will use it as a file server, dhcp and dns for my home network
[09:30] <magespawn> i will use my external drives for the actual storage
[09:31] <Kilos> ah
[09:31] <magespawn> then the kids can play on the xp machine where all the games are
[09:31] <Kilos> ya thats better
[09:32] <Kilos> ians stupid pc has started rebooting on its own whenever i try make it do something
[09:33] <Kilos> so its more than the psu
[09:33] <Kilos> sigh
[09:33] <Kilos> it has new ddr2 ram so methinks that leaves cpu and bios right?
[09:34] <magespawn> or something on the board
[09:34] <Kilos> oh you mean imbedded stuff
[09:34] <ThatGraemeGuy> unlikely bios, as it does pretty much nothing after the boot process starts
[09:34] <ThatGraemeGuy> maybe cpu overheating?
[09:35] <Kilos> it reboots before it has time to get hot even
[09:35] <Kilos> maybe i must try them temp tools
[09:37] <magespawn> does it do it if you are in the bios?
[09:38] <Kilos> a coupla times when trying to do all the settings in the bios it did restart on its own yes
[09:38] <Kilos> struggled to get to saving boot prefs etc
[09:39] <magespawn> did you flash it?
[09:40] <Kilos> nope. cant fit flash and update stuff onna floppy and not sure of how to use flashrom in ubuntu properly
[09:40] <Kilos> has a terrible man page
[09:41] <Kilos> i installed kde here and then took the drive there and it boots fine
[09:41] <Kilos> are 2.8m floppies bought like that or do you format it like that some other way
[09:46] <Kilos> lets hear what the twits say i did wrong today
[09:46] <magespawn> AFAIK you can format them to change the file structure but not the density, but that has been long ago
[09:47]  * Squirm yawns
[09:47] <Kilos> in xp you can compress a 1.4m floppy but you need the 98 bootable thing to do bios
[09:47] <Kilos> ai! Squirm tired again
[09:47] <Kilos> still
[09:47] <Squirm> still
[09:48] <Squirm> my boss is out
[09:48] <Squirm> maybe I should go and take a nap
[09:48] <Squirm> :P
[09:51] <Kilos> ai!
[09:52] <Kilos> twits=tweet peeps
[09:52] <Kilos> normally the pro says you got it wrong
[09:53] <magespawn> Squirm: not enough sleep?

[13:33] <magespawn> that is what people came up wtih before lawsuits
[13:34] <magespawn> for that apartment where you just have to have that extra space
[14:11] <Kilos> hi Cantide 
[14:11] <Cantide> hello '-'
[14:12] <Cantide> hmm
[14:12] <Cantide> what to do now >.<
[14:13] <Cantide> i have been pimping my CV lately
[14:16] <Kilos> now hope someone bites
[14:17] <Cantide> well, i haven't applied for anything yet
[14:17] <Cantide> graduation is still about 6 weeks away
[14:17] <magespawn> maybe put it online somewhere
[14:17] <Cantide> and i need the certificate for the jobs i want
[14:17] <magespawn> what did you study?
[14:17] <Cantide> a general BA with majors in English and linguistics
[14:18] <magespawn> ahh right that is why the classic reading
[14:19] <Cantide> yup
[14:19] <Cantide> was planning to move to Korea
[14:19] <Cantide> but right now things aren't looking too hot
[14:19] <magespawn> maybe not such a good idea for now
[14:19] <Cantide> so just waiting for graduation while i prepare some things
[14:19] <Cantide> and i will decide then
[14:20] <Cantide> yeah, i still think North Korea is all bark and no bite
[14:20] <magespawn> why Korea?
[14:20] <Cantide> that's a very long story
[14:20] <magespawn> ahh okay
[14:20] <Cantide> :p
[14:20] <superfly> magespawn: cause Cantide thought the Korean chicks were hot... but no longer
[14:20] <Cantide> 안녕하세요 '-'
[14:20] <Cantide> superfly, hahaha
[14:20] <superfly> I think it had something to do with Gangnam Style
[14:20] <Cantide> naah :p
[14:21] <Cantide> i got involved with Koreans around 2006
[14:22] <magespawn> it is not a usual place for south africans to think of moving to 
[14:22] <Cantide> hmm
[14:22] <magespawn> assuming you are south african
[14:22] <Cantide> i think there are quite a few South Africans there
[14:22] <Cantide> I am :p
[14:22] <Cantide> it's either there or Japan
[14:23] <magespawn> i thought most expats from here went to place like oz
[14:24] <Cantide> ah
[14:24] <Cantide> fair enough
[14:24] <Cantide> there are a lot more South Africans in the UK and Australasia
[14:24] <Cantide> but Korea and Japan offer good jobs, high salaries and all sorts of other perks
[14:24] <Cantide> and they're not western countries
[14:25] <magespawn> culturally it would be a slight change 
[14:25] <Squirm> hometime
[14:25] <Cantide> i suppose so
[14:25] <Cantide> but for me it won't be tough
[14:25] <magespawn> something some people struggle with
[14:25] <Cantide> i have plenty of friends there, can read and write the language, have eaten the food for several years
[14:26] <Cantide> ex girlfriend was Korean >_>
[14:26] <magespawn> ahh
[14:26] <Cantide> <_<
[14:27] <Cantide> so yeah, this tension at the moment doesn't deter me much
[14:27] <Cantide> but i think it's a good idea to wait a few months
[14:27] <Cantide> i have to wait for graduation anyway
[14:27] <Kilos> hehe
[14:27] <Cantide> hopefully there is decent Ubuntu activity there :)
[14:28] <Cantide> i might have to start something if there isn't
[14:28] <magespawn> well if not maybe we will have to come and visit
[14:28] <Cantide> :)
[14:28] <Cantide> my job should provide accommodation
[14:29] <Cantide> so you will be guaranteed a spot on the floor at least :p
[14:29] <magespawn> cool
[14:30] <Cantide> failing that i have a friend that rents out an apartment in Seoul :p
[14:30] <Cantide> i paid something like R 700 for 3 weeks last time :)
[14:32] <Cantide> assuming Seoul is still there next month =_=
[14:38] <magespawn> for the apartment rental?
[14:48] <Kilos> so Squirm did you work out how to get maaz to announce at a later time?
[14:48] <Kilos> dont think he does the at command does he
[14:48] <Kilos> Maaz: at 20.00
[14:48] <Maaz> Kilos: Huh?
[14:49] <Kilos> hmm...
[14:50] <Kilos> maybe tumbleweed can tell us
[14:53] <magespawn> later all home time.
[14:55] <Cantide> yeah, for the apartment rental from my friend '-'
[14:55] <Cantide> see ya~
[15:32] <nuvolari> o/
[15:32] <nuvolari> home time
[15:33] <Cantide> \o
[16:33] <Kilos> guten abend. im so happy telkom didnt drop the 2+1
[16:33] <Cantide> heh :)
[16:34] <Cantide> i bought the 60 + 60 in fear of them dropping it
[16:34] <Kilos> woulda been bad paying R20 more for only 1g
[16:35] <Cantide> yeah
[16:47] <Kilos> inetpro: the monkey says see us here monday if not sooner
[16:48] <Cantide> 19:30 as usual??
[16:48] <Cantide> that will become 02:30 for me once i move T-Tv
[16:53] <Kilos> eek
[16:53] <Kilos> bad move
[16:54] <Cantide> chances are i won't be able to attend
[16:55] <Kilos> yeah you'll have to read minutes next day
[16:56] <Cantide> ㅠㅠ
[17:05] <Kilos> i wonder what games they playing in korea
[17:05] <Cantide> heh
[17:05] <Cantide> I hope nothing happens
[17:05] <Kilos> what they want such long distance missiles for
[17:05] <Cantide> but they may launch a missile soon
[17:05] <Cantide> to attack America
[17:06] <Cantide> but they're not that stupid - America will crush them
[17:06] <Cantide> brb!
[17:06] <Kilos> then they will be thumped like sadam
[17:36] <Kilos> hi smile4ever 
[17:56] <smile4ever> hi Kilos :D
[18:33] <smile4ever> good night
[18:33] <smile4ever> :)
[18:34] <Kilos> night smile4ever 
[18:34] <Kilos> sleep tight
[18:34] <Cantide> good night :)
[19:05] <Kilos> inetpro: are you here?
[19:05] <Kilos> just need some guidance please
[19:05] <inetpro> ho Kilos
[19:05] <Kilos> with wget
[19:05] <inetpro> sup?
[19:06] <Kilos> http://sourceforge.net/projects/systemrescuecd/
[19:06] <Kilos> do i right click where it says download and copy link address and use that with wget?
[19:06]  * inetpro not knows
[19:07] <Kilos> ai!
[19:07] <inetpro> http://www.sysresccd.org/SystemRescueCd_Homepage
[19:07] <Kilos> im bang to download with a browser on the wonderful internet we got at the moment
[19:07] <inetpro> what you wanna do with that?
[19:08] <Kilos> use that cd to flash the bios on ians pc
[19:08] <inetpro> ai!
[19:08] <inetpro> will it work?
[19:08] <Kilos> flashrom should be on it
[19:09] <Kilos> i dont see any other option. i put another psu in and it rebooted while in bios a few times before i got it setup and saved
[19:09] <inetpro> flashrom is also available on ubuntu, not?
[19:09] <Kilos> now with kde on there it reboots now and again when i try do stuff
[19:10] <inetpro> aptitude show flashrom
[19:10] <Kilos> yes it is but when i try start it there the pc reboots
[19:10]  * inetpro is the wrong person to ask on this
[19:11] <inetpro> haven't played with flashrom or any such drastic tools
[19:11] <Kilos> thats why i wanted to know the wget addy for the iso
[19:11] <inetpro> so you better do your homework first
[19:11] <Cantide> good night '-'/
[19:11] <inetpro> but Kilos, flashrom is just one very small part of sysresccd
[19:12] <inetpro> SystemRescueCd*
[19:12] <Kilos> ya but i was hoping that at least i can do things without it rebooting all the time
[19:13] <Kilos> i booted from 12.04 and installed unity alongside kde with no prob
[19:13] <inetpro> today?
[19:13] <Kilos> so was hoping the cd route would let me at least sort the bios
[19:14] <Kilos> yesterday
[19:14] <inetpro> but IIRC you said earlier today that even when you're in the bios that it reboots itself
[19:15] <inetpro> so how can it not reboot during installation?
[19:15] <Kilos> yip it kept doing that till i eventually got the settings saved now it boots to the drive
[19:15] <inetpro> ai!
[19:15] <Kilos> very sick pc that
[19:17] <inetpro> start with http://www.sysresccd.org/
[19:17] <inetpro> that is the homepage
[19:17] <Kilos> lol or tell me where to get a 2.8m floppy
[19:17] <inetpro> nee man
[19:17] <Kilos> the home page wants payment
[19:18] <Kilos> the floppy route would really be the easiest because you only have the flash tool and update firmware on it
[19:19] <inetpro> sorry Kilos but I really can't help you here
[19:19] <Kilos> flashrom in ubuntu is for serious geek types
[19:19] <Kilos> hehe
[19:19] <Kilos> np boetie ill get there sometime
[19:19] <Kilos> danke
[19:19] <inetpro> at least not tonight
[19:20] <Kilos> no worries man
[19:20] <Kilos> i got the rest of my life
[19:20] <inetpro> sal jou nou van die wal af in die sloot in help
[19:20] <Kilos> lol
[19:21]  * inetpro is moeg en moet nog gou iets klaarmaak voor gaan slaap
[19:21] <Kilos> it even has  a man page
[19:21] <Kilos> geen prob inetpro 
[19:22] <Kilos> die ding is al maande hier en ek sien jy kan die bios chip bestel so ja
[19:22] <Kilos> dis ook my slaap tyd
[19:35] <Kilos> night all. sleep tight
