Kiloslekker08:28
magespawnOne of the advantages to living in KZN.08:33
Kiloslol08:34
* Kilos jealous08:34
Kilosreally miss them heat waves08:34
magespawnI have thought that this part of KZN is not that good to work in, but very nice for a holiday or retirement.08:36
Kilosya hot to work in at times08:38
magespawnWork up there in summer, here in winter, that would be the way to swing it.08:40
Kilosyeah08:40
Kilosbut these peeps complain when its hot here08:41
Kilosmust have mexican blood08:41
Kilosall wanna siesta in the heat08:41
magespawnThe heat i can handle, the humidty is something else08:49
Kilosone should get used to it08:51
magespawnI just never seem to adjust, wife loves it here though09:00
Kilosnorthen natal is lekker09:01
magespawnI find myself missing funny things though, city stuff09:03
Kilosaw09:04
Kilosi hate cities09:04
Kilostoo much bad stuff nowadays09:04
Symmetriaheh I think for me it depends on the city09:17
SymmetriaNairobi is awesome if you could remove the damn traffic09:17
Symmetria(Nairobi traffic is *insane*)09:17
magespawnIs that not the worst part of most cities?09:20
Symmetriamagespawn well, lol, see after you spent time in nairobi most other places dont seem to have traffic ;p09:20
SymmetriaNairobi, Dar Es Salaam, Cairo, Lagos, Rome are 4 places where the traffic will drive you insane 09:21
Symmetriaoh 5 places haha09:21
Symmetriaand Nairobi is probably at the top of those lists09:21
Symmetriathoguh even the traffic in mombasa last week was pretty bad09:22
Symmetria;p and if you think south african minibus taxis drive badly hahaha wait till you get to Nairobi and see their version of the minibus taxis (called Matatus) 09:22
magespawnI understand the paris traffic is also a bit insane09:25
Cantidesubways help a lot :)09:26
magespawnThats the other thing about africa at the moment very few reliable mass transport systems09:28
Cantideyeah09:29
Cantidei can't imagine Seoul without the subway09:29
Cantidewould be crazy to have 20 million people in there without it09:29
Cantideat least we've started with the Gautrain09:30
Cantidebut we need a lot more than that09:30
Cantidewe need high speed rail between JHB, DBN and CT09:30
Cantideand a subway in each city09:30
magespawnYup and the problem with most of the sa rail system is that it is narrow gauge09:40
Cantideyeah09:40
Cantideso it can't be upgraded easily09:40
Cantidealso, i'd catch the train here in Durban if it were safer09:40
Cantidethey need to put security on the coaches09:41
magespawnIt will come in time09:42
Cantidetoo slow unfortunately09:42
Cantidedecent rail infrastructure would be a massive boost09:42
Cantidebut government is taking too long -.-09:42
magespawnThey always do09:42
magespawnMore interested in their own pockets for one09:43
Kiloshehe09:46
Kiloswill cost big bucks and lotsa work to tunnel under all the cities09:47
Kilosand all the cave ins09:47
Kilosyou are better off there magespawn 09:48

Kiloshi nlsthzn 11:04

nlsthznthis has been a hectic week-end... just basically got back from Dubai... was awesome...:p11:24
Kiloscool11:28
Kiloswhen does your daughter arrive nlsthzn ?11:35
nlsthznthe date for her arrival has been accelerated and she flies this coming Thursday night (that has put a lot of pressure on me to get her VISA done ASAP) which is why I am off to Abu Dhabi again tomorrow morning 11:37
Kilosah11:38
Symmetriahrm, how do I take a screenshot in linux again11:49
Symmetriathe easy fast way ;p11:49
nlsthzn:p11:50
kbmonkeyscrot11:50
Symmetriagod I love USB-3 + SSD btw11:50
kbmonkeyprint-screen button? XD11:50
SymmetriaIm sitting here wanting to take 120gig of data home with me, copies the whole lot in 8 minutes 11:50
Symmetria160meg/second or smething stupid 11:50
kbmonkeythat is disgusting Symmetria. 11:50
Symmetriaheh, I dont think I will ever go back to crappy usb-2 external drives again ;p this is awesomeness11:51
kbmonkeyis that a vfat partition type Symmetria ?11:51
Symmetriakbmonkey no, ext3, I run an ext3 driver on my doze box at home11:52
Symmetriavfat = slow as hell :(11:52
kbmonkeyyar it is :(11:52
Symmetriaheh, vfat uses fuse, and as a result, vfat and ntfs are both crap slow 11:52
Symmetrialike, half the damn speed 11:52
SymmetriaIm pretty convinced its fuse that sucks 11:52
Symmetrialol also pretty convinced th at this machine here at the office had an SSD disk in it instead of a sata, this USB-3 would be copying a lot faster than 160meg/second 11:53
kbmonkey120Gig is twice as large as my desktop's OS hdd, lol!11:53
Symmetrialol, the harddrive read light on the normal disk is on solid11:53
Symmetriakbmonkey *lol* I have 4 x 768 gig SSD's and 3 x 3TB sata disks in my home desktop 11:54
Symmetriaand a 256gig SSD and a 120gig SSD in usb-3 bays11:54
kbmonkeyyou must have some collection of distros...11:54
Symmetriapricey but soooo worth it 11:54
Symmetria;p11:54
Symmetriakbmonkey lol, nto about distros, its about video processing and photo editing I do11:54
Symmetrialol, you start screwing around with 1080p video in adobe premiere or something, you better be prepared to burn some serious disk space on some seriously fast drives if you dont wanna wait forever11:55
Symmetriaok, copy done, time to go 11:57
Symmetriachat later from home11:57
