Kilos | lol | 07:56 |
Kilos | too many yankee movies | 07:57 |
Kilos | hey dude | 07:57 |
magespawn | Kilos apparently 8ta is going live with LTE in april | 07:57 |
Kilos | what is lte magespawn | 07:57 |
magespawn | or "good day" *said with oz type accecent* | 07:58 |
magespawn | blazingingly fast speed | 07:58 |
Kilos | about time 8ta is at its slowest since i started using it | 07:58 |
Kilos | took 5 hours to get 400m last night | 07:59 |
magespawn | wow | 07:59 |
Kilos | need to fone them on monday and rev them | 07:59 |
Kilos | used to get up to 300 kB/s | 07:59 |
Squirm | magespawn: uh | 07:59 |
Squirm | np | 07:59 |
Squirm | no | 07:59 |
Kilos | last night must been around 50 kB/s | 08:00 |
Squirm | yes they still decided to reset passwords | 08:00 |
Squirm | just to make users nervous | 08:00 |
magespawn | ahh well that is 'good' security practice | 08:00 |
Kilos | Maaz: tell mazal why you pop in and out? | 08:33 |
Maaz | Kilos: Righto, I'll tell mazal on freenode | 08:33 |
Kilos | wonder where he has been | 08:33 |
Kilos | very busy he will say | 08:33 |
Kilos | magespawn: where did you hear the 8ta news | 09:04 |
magespawn | zatech show podcast | 09:09 |
magespawn | apparently they are going to have 1000 base stations with lte so will cover a much larger area than any of the other networks | 09:10 |
Kilos | lekker | 09:11 |
Kilos | hows 8ta doing there by you? | 09:11 |
magespawn | it is not | 09:11 |
Kilos | complain man | 09:12 |
magespawn | they have no dedicated towers here and mtn is already overloaded in town | 09:13 |
Kilos | if there is an mtn tower near then they build onto it | 09:13 |
Kilos | aw | 09:13 |
Kilos | but here 8ta actually put their own equipment onto the mtn tower | 09:13 |
Kilos | so it aint roaming | 09:13 |
magespawn | vodacom in town is about the best, about 18kms out of town towards sodwana mtn is the best | 09:14 |
Kilos | where do you stay in relation to town | 09:14 |
Kilos | village | 09:14 |
Kilos | that tiny place | 09:14 |
magespawn | about 5km out but well within range of the vodacom 3G tower | 09:15 |
Kilos | which direction? | 09:15 |
magespawn | towards sodwana | 09:16 |
Kilos | ah | 09:16 |
magespawn | but that is 5 road kms | 09:16 |
Kilos | so straight through on the main road | 09:16 |
magespawn | from the tower probable about 1-3 kms | 09:16 |
magespawn | let me get a map | 09:17 |
Kilos | ah similar to here but mine is an mtn 8ta tower and the voda peeps moved their equpment off this tower to their own about 5 ks away | 09:18 |
magespawn | http://goo.gl/maps/AlTf8 where the hluhluwe airport is marked the houses to the left is where i stay | 09:23 |
Kilos | you even have an airport? | 09:24 |
Kilos | whew | 09:24 |
magespawn | grass strip | 09:25 |
Kilos | ai! i battle to work that map thing | 09:30 |
Kilos | everything so tiny and when i zoom i end up somewhere else | 09:30 |
magespawn | not too serious | 09:32 |
magespawn | new server on the p3 up and running, fully updated | 09:33 |
Kilos | lekker works good hey | 09:33 |
Kilos | p3's still have their uses | 09:33 |
Kilos | not having a gui makes a diffs | 09:34 |

charl | good afternoon | 11:45 |
charl | hi Kilos | 11:45 |
magespawn | hey Vince-0 charl | 11:48 |
magespawn | no do not think so Squirm, just something new | 11:49 |
magespawn | Kilos have another pc with an amd 980mhz chip and a nvidia card | 11:50 |
charl | hi magespawn | 11:51 |
Kilos | good magespawn make it work too | 11:52 |
Kilos | faster than a p3 i think | 11:52 |
magespawn | it is, just put some extra memory in it | 11:52 |
magespawn | a little yes | 11:52 |
Kilos | does it help putting money into a pc | 11:53 |
Kilos | not better to get parts for it and put them in? | 11:54 |
Kilos | hehe | 11:54 |
magespawn | sorry? | 11:54 |
Kilos | lol | 11:54 |
magespawn | had only 128 now up to 256mb ram | 11:55 |
Kilos | ah | 11:56 |

theblazehen | hi Kilos | 14:11 |
Kilos | hi theblazehen | 14:20 |
Kilos | whats news by you | 14:20 |
Kilos | meeting monday evening hey | 14:21 |
theblazehen | not much. I know | 14:21 |
theblazehen | ordered a couple vps's a few days ago | 14:21 |
theblazehen | mining litecoin on them | 14:21 |
Kilos | magespawn: you still at work? | 14:21 |
Kilos | whew | 14:21 |
magespawn | yup but busy studying | 14:22 |
Kilos | ah sorry | 14:22 |
magespawn | no worries | 14:22 |
magespawn | audio so i can type and listen to the lecture as the same time | 14:23 |
Kilos | ah | 14:23 |
magespawn | theblazehen: read an article that basically said that was not worth while | 14:23 |
magespawn | cost of vp versus value of litecoins gained | 14:24 |
theblazehen | i ake about $1 a month | 14:25 |
theblazehen | make* | 14:25 |
Squirm | I'd rather mine Bitcoin | 14:26 |
Squirm | hmm | 14:29 |
magespawn | the dollar value of those are like a yoyo | 14:29 |
Squirm | I'm running dd, copying a partition to another partition. do you think it'll work? | 14:30 |
magespawn | why not? | 14:30 |
Squirm | or do I have to align partition tables or something | 14:30 |
magespawn | should work fine | 14:30 |
theblazehen | Squirm, I convert it to BTC | 14:30 |
magespawn | do not know about that | 14:31 |
theblazehen | but LTC is ore efficient on cpu | 14:31 |
Squirm | dd if=/dev/sda4 of=/dev/sdb1 bs=1M | 14:31 |
magespawn | theblazehen: are litecoins easier to mine | 14:31 |
magespawn | looks okay to me but inetpro would know more | 14:31 |
theblazehen | magespawn, less beginner friendly, but easy enough. If you only have a cpu available you make about 10x more profit | 14:31 |
magespawn | mmm might take a look then | 14:32 |
magespawn | have a few spare pcs to dedicate | 14:32 |
Squirm | I'm busy pulling bit together to put up a little CentOS server | 14:34 |
Squirm | I really, really would like an HP Microserver though | 14:34 |
theblazehen | magespawn, build minerd from these instructions: https://www.litecoinpool.org/help then register at http://ltc.nushor.net/ you can then run the miner with ./minerd -o http://ltc.nushor.net:8998 -u $name_of_worker,defaults_to_username.x -p $password,defaultis_x | 14:35 |
magespawn | cool ty theblazehen | 14:35 |
Squirm | theblazehen: what's the CPU usage like? | 14:36 |
theblazehen | np | 14:36 |
theblazehen | Squirm, as high as you let it | 14:36 |
Squirm | ok | 14:36 |
theblazehen | but you can always run it with nice | 14:36 |
Squirm | yeah | 14:36 |
Squirm | I mean, thinking of running it in the background or something | 14:36 |
theblazehen | Do it al the time on my netbook | 14:37 |
theblazehen | you can see their status on theblazehen.com | 14:37 |
Squirm | my office machine is up all the time | 14:37 |
theblazehen | Squirm, good | 14:37 |
Squirm | and the current exchange rate? | 14:38 |
Squirm | about | 14:38 |
theblazehen | $1.8 per LTC | 14:38 |
theblazehen | http://ltc.kattare.com/calc.php | 14:39 |
magespawn | Squirm: one of these http://is.gd/6QtICy ? | 14:39 |
Squirm | magespawn: yes | 14:39 |
theblazehen | ltc/usd is 2.55002809 | 14:40 |
magespawn | mmm i have ooggling those for awhile too | 14:40 |
Squirm | magespawn: small form factor, low electricity consumption, quiet | 14:40 |
Squirm | want | 14:41 |
magespawn | they are relatively cheep too | 14:44 |
magespawn | cheap | 14:44 |
Squirm | yes they are. But I can't afford to get something like that. It'll sit and I dunno what it will do | 14:46 |
magespawn | cool just finished my n+ course material | 15:19 |
Vince-0 | naas | 15:24 |
charl | naas botha? | 15:37 |
magespawn | anyway home time now, later all | 15:44 |
charl | good evening all | 17:51 |
charl | i had a very interesting week | 17:51 |
charl | had to figure out how to package oracle java for ubuntu | 17:51 |
charl | ended up being a complete mess | 17:51 |
charl | i need to find a bug report or submit one myself if i can't find it | 17:52 |
charl | took me a whole day just to come up with a functional package | 17:52 |
charl | and still not sure if it's perfect | 17:52 |
inetpro | good evening | 18:14 |
charl | hi inetpro | 18:16 |
charl | hi smile4ever | 18:16 |
smile4ever | hi charl :) | 18:19 |

kbmonkey | greets fellows and lassies | 18:28 |
charl | hi kbmonkey | 18:29 |
charl | just finished watching death race 3 | 18:29 |
charl | most of it has been shot in south africa | 18:29 |
kbmonkey | hi charl :) cool I have not seen that yet. | 18:30 |
kbmonkey | I've got the Devil's Rejects for later | 18:30 |
kbmonkey | how was it? | 18:31 |
charl | it was a typical action movie but very good | 18:33 |
Kilos | lo inetpro kbmonkey charl Trix[a]r_za | 18:33 |
Kilos | and smile4ever | 18:33 |
charl | hi again Kilos | 18:34 |

kbmonkey | ook ook | 18:36 |
Kilos | hehe | 18:36 |
smile4ever | :) | 18:38 |
smile4ever | byeee :) | 18:38 |
magespawn | evening all | 18:48 |
charl | wb magespawn | 18:48 |
magespawn | ty | 18:48 |
Kilos | night all. sleep tight | 19:04 |
Kilos | dont forget mondays meet | 19:04 |
kbmonkey | man I'm getting hungry again. :) | 19:08 |
Squirm | playback never worked :/ | 19:08 |
Squirm | if someone has tried to contact me in the last 4 hours, please state your claim | 19:08 |
charl | playback? | 19:19 |
Squirm | my ZNC usually plays back what I've missed in the channel | 19:21 |
charl | oh i see | 19:28 |
charl | i run irssi inside a screen session on a server so i can just ssh and reattach and use the page up key | 19:28 |
charl | many years ago i used psybnc though | 19:29 |
Squirm | charl: yeah, not a fan of irssi though. still like some of my gui stuff | 19:34 |
magespawn | quassel? | 19:34 |
Squirm | thought of that. haven't seen it though. I like xChat :) | 19:35 |
charl | am the opposite of that, i like to try and do as much possible at the console/command line | 19:35 |
charl | i'm busy transitioning from kde to i3 though | 19:36 |
Tonberry_ | i3? | 19:36 |
charl | Tonberry_: http://i3wm.org/ | 19:37 |
magespawn | i am just getting used to kde | 19:38 |
charl | i have used kde now for 13 years, time for a change | 19:39 |
charl | not constantly though, i have been on gnome and openbox for a while too | 19:39 |
magespawn | mmm indeed, i have not even been using linux that long | 19:41 |
Squirm | charl: fine, I use the cli as much as possible as well. Am doing my RHCE exam next month. But on a desktop, I like certain things to be gui based | 19:45 |
charl | rhce - they still have that? interesting | 19:56 |
charl | it used to be quite a big thing some time ago | 19:56 |
charl | haven't heard of it much the last few years though | 19:56 |
charl | i think it's because most people moved away from redhat but it still gets used in many companies | 19:57 |
Squirm | charl: if not RedHat then something like CentOS. Or any linux distro. The concepts pretty much stay the same. The packages are pretty much available across all distros | 19:57 |
charl | yeah even oracle linux uses the same packages, also based on redhat | 19:58 |
charl | same as what ubuntu is based on debian | 19:58 |
Squirm | except | 19:58 |
Squirm | CentOS = RedHat | 19:59 |
Squirm | it's a package for package clone | 19:59 |
Squirm | RH is still opensource, so the CentOS guys just compile the RH packages with the CentOS logos, etc | 20:00 |
magespawn | and the linux certification is based on CentOS | 20:00 |
charl | hahaha, i wonder why people still use redhat then, perhaps just for support | 20:00 |
Squirm | yeah, it's the support you pay for | 20:00 |
Squirm | which is meant to be pretty good | 20:00 |
Squirm | I enjoy RH | 20:01 |
Vince-0 | me22 | 20:01 |
Lil-|^Red | ~OT |Meanwhile in Nigeria ^_^ :::::::: || http://motherlandnigeria.com/games/ayo.html :::: END | 20:01 |
Squirm | very clean distro | 20:01 |
Lil-|^Red | leaves. | 20:01 |
Squirm | ... | 20:01 |
magespawn | ? | 20:01 |
charl | obvious spam is obvious | 20:02 |
Vince-0 | ya wot, | 20:02 |
charl | about redhat, we also use it at work, but considering we never make use of the support, i wonder why | 20:02 |
Vince-0 | dunno why anyone would spam that | 20:02 |
magespawn | bit like running into a room shouting a word or sentance and then running out | 20:02 |
magespawn | charl: maybe because it is proven | 20:03 |
Squirm | magespawn: CentOS = RedHat | 20:03 |
Squirm | except without the support | 20:03 |
charl | magespawn: proven? :) | 20:03 |
charl | centos is also pretty proven imho | 20:04 |
Vince-0 | ya most software is tested with Centos | 20:04 |
charl | i used centos for the first time probably like 7 years back | 20:04 |
Vince-0 | Scientific Linus is binary compatible with RH i think | 20:04 |
Squirm | cause it's RedHat :p | 20:04 |
Squirm | Vince-0: probably cause it's based on CentOS | 20:05 |
Vince-0 | yar | 20:06 |
charl | lots of people use fedora instead, but afaik fedora is much more on the cutting edge | 20:07 |
charl | so you perhaps get less stability | 20:07 |
charl | but you do get newer versions of the software quicker | 20:07 |
Squirm | I didn't enjoy Fedora | 20:08 |
magespawn | charl: as in all those other people use it so it must be okay for us | 20:08 |
Squirm | it broke easily | 20:08 |
charl | yeah | 20:08 |
Squirm | felt... clunky | 20:08 |
charl | can't say i have had much negative experience with fedora myself | 20:08 |
charl | the only thing i had was some issues with graphics card drivers on nvidia but that's nothing out of the ordinary | 20:08 |
charl | i had to replace nouveau with some binary drivers but that was a number of years ago | 20:09 |
Squirm | I'd definitely have CentOS/RH as a server. I am really enjoying Mint MATE on my desktop | 20:09 |
charl | i assume nouveau is up to scratch now | 20:09 |
charl | i use ubuntu 12.10 for both desktop and server now, although at work i mostly run the latest lts release 12.04 on servers | 20:10 |
charl | but for my personal server i try and stay on the latest release | 20:11 |
charl | it's nice running exactly the same on both desktop and server because all the packages are the same etc | 20:11 |
charl | at work you obviously don't "just" upgrade servers :) | 20:11 |
Squirm | we were running Fedora, squid was unstable, the server was unstable. After I went on the RH course, I asked if I could test CentOS, just to see if it helped | 20:14 |
Squirm | we haven't had a problem yet | 20:14 |
magespawn | i try to keep all my stuff on LTS, but the desktops in the shop are on 12.10 | 20:14 |
Vince-0 | I run Fedora17 at work laptop which is pretty usable without graphics, Centos on servers | 20:14 |
Vince-0 | I've takend a liking to Enlightenment DE | 20:14 |
magespawn | ahh the wonders of open source choice | 20:15 |
Squirm | yeah | 20:15 |
Squirm | so many choices | 20:15 |
Squirm | so many preferences | 20:15 |
magespawn | awesome stuff | 20:15 |
Vince-0 | see Google's recent fork of Webkit as Blink? | 20:15 |
Vince-0 | gonna get more choice in browsers | 20:16 |
Squirm | I may stick to Chrome | 20:16 |
Squirm | waiting for my Nexus 4. Then I can sync everything to my phone as well :P | 20:17 |
Vince-0 | not to mention the recent forks made for Ubuntu graphics 'nstuff | 20:17 |
Vince-0 | yaa chrome is nice for that | 20:17 |
Vince-0 | the only thing it lacks is a decent tab grouper | 20:17 |
Squirm | Firefox does it too | 20:17 |
Squirm | hmm, tab grouper | 20:17 |
Squirm | interesting idea. | 20:18 |
Vince-0 | too many tabs, firefox just puts em in boxes and remembers it for next time | 20:18 |
Squirm | meh. I have to install windows on a machine. but cause i'm home I only have 1 set of everything | 20:19 |
Squirm | and my laptop isn't here | 20:19 |
Squirm | :/ | 20:19 |
Squirm | well, parents place | 20:19 |
Squirm | so bbl | 20:21 |
Vince-0 | please excuse the long URL, my firefox tabs | 20:23 |
Vince-0 | https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-zSLdyy8xJN4/UWm-aKa3TdI/AAAAAAAABRQ/9cyPti51jR8/s1106/firefox_tabs.jpg | 20:23 |
Vince-0 | chrome add-ons claim to do group tabs but naay | 20:25 |
magespawn | wow thought i used a lot, but i have never had that happen | 20:25 |
Vince-0 | I like to keep em open for particular subjects | 20:26 |
kbmonkey | wow Vince-0, that is insane. I have no more than 5 at any time | 20:26 |
Vince-0 | oh, kinda replaced bookmarks and just keep em there so I can see where I was last at | 20:27 |
kbmonkey | holy crud, it's past dinner time XD | 20:27 |
Vince-0 | yar its like almost midnight snack time | 20:27 |
kbmonkey | I'm a sucker for minimalism. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/18686471/images/2013-04-13.22341365885296.png | 20:38 |
kbmonkey | going to catch up on chow... | 20:40 |
charl | kbmonkey: which desktop environment is that? | 20:47 |
charl | also looks like some tiling implementation | 20:47 |
magespawn | later all, bed time, good night all | 20:49 |
charl | nn magespawn | 20:49 |
Squirm | cool | 21:11 |
Squirm | pc is up and running | 21:12 |
Vince-0 | charl, think its openbox | 21:52 |
Vince-0 | or not, I can't remember | 21:58 |
