MartijnVdSali1234: almost as if someone designed it that way10:14

MartijnVdSdon't be14:54
mgdmas he said, 'ignorance is bliss' :-)14:54
dwatkinsI won't point out that some terminals interpret the colons as being part of the URL, then ;)14:55
brobostigoni would concur, the opposite can be true, being intelligant and clever can be hell.14:55
MartijnVdSthough I wonder how scary the world must be if you don't know how to learn new things quickly14:56
dwatkinsthings change fast in some areas, but not all14:56
MartijnVdSdwatkins: exactly14:56
MartijnVdSdwatkins: but I saw someone who was used to Windows XP try to use Windows 7 and be *completely lost*14:57
MartijnVdSit's mostly still the same!14:57
dwatkinsthey'd be even more lost on win8, I imagine14:57
brobostigonok, now to read some more of MartijnVdS's blog.14:57
dwatkinspart of the problem is that people learn how to use a computer by learning where to click, though - they don't understand the fundamentals14:57
MartijnVdSdwatkins: Agreed, but even that has some logic to it14:58
MartijnVdSdwatkins: twisted, weird logic (2 operating systems at once, or something)14:58
MartijnVdSdwatkins: yes, and not knowing the fundamentals makes change scary. I think.14:58
brobostigonMartijnVdS: thats interesting, well written, good job, :)15:05
ali1234no15:35
ali1234it's not scary15:35
ali1234when people get a new computer and don't know how to use it they don't get scared15:36
ali1234they just go "meh" and don't use it15:36
ali1234or they get angry15:36
ali1234this whole "change is scary" meme is just a strawman invented by people trying to push through unpopular changes15:36
ali1234and please don't give me any yoda quotes. george lucas is no philosopher15:37
ali1234"i don't know how i'm going to pay the bills next week" is scary. "i can't find bbc iplayer any more" is not.15:38

ali1234popey: the qt setup in raring is really really messed up17:38
ali1234this is kind of hampering my efforts with qml-box2d17:38
penguin42http://blog.kotowicz.net/2013/07/jealous-of-prism-use-amazon-1-button.html sounds messy17:39
ali1234specifically the problem is ubuntu-sdk has a dependency on qt5-default and build-dep qt4-x11 has a dependency on qt4-default, so these are mutually exclusive17:53
ali1234and i currently have the latter installed17:53
popeyali1234: can you file a bug and I'll point the guys at it?18:05
ali1234they probably already know about it18:06
popeyi wouldnt be sure18:06
ali1234i bet qt4 source package has some hardcoded stuff that requires qt4-default to be installed18:06
popeymost if not all are running saucy18:06
popeywell the desktop needs qt4 for ubuntuone client18:06
ali1234so that doesn't have qt4 at all?18:06
ali1234this bug affects build-dep only18:06
popeyno, i mean they're not likely to see raring specific issues18:07
ali1234ie if you want to build qt4 from source18:07
ali1234i doubt it is raring specific18:07
popeyah18:07
ali1234since literally no ubuntu developers build packages locally they probably won't care either :P18:07
popeyyes, they do18:07
ali1234yeah, in a chroot18:07
popeyin fact the sdk guys are most likely to18:07
popeymaybe yeah18:07
ali1234i'm not building qt4 from the package, i'm building upstream18:08
ali1234looking for the webkit bug18:08
ali1234so i could use a chroot18:09
ali1234but i'd have to enter it and build manually18:09
ali1234and that's 100% undocumented "nobody ever does that" territory18:09
ali1234when i finish bisecting qtwebkit i can uninstall this18:10
ali1234!info libqtwebkit4 saucy18:10
lubotu3libqtwebkit4 (source: qtwebkit-source): Web content engine library for Qt. In component main, is optional. Version 2.3.1-0ubuntu3 (saucy), package size 8758 kB, installed size 34138 kB18:10
ali1234actually i could just install that on raring and forget about it18:10
ali1234but i;m curious now18:10
popeyheh18:11
ali1234it's one of those "it's fixed but we have no idea why" bugs18:12
ali1234and turns out it's not caused by ubuntu patches18:12
popeywe had a lot of that during early phone development18:13
popeypeople were very cautious about upgrading qt18:13
popeygiven the whole world depends on it on the phone18:13
ali1234qtwebkit4 2.3 isn't even an official release you know18:13
popeyand we had product demos to do at trade shows18:13
popeycouldn't break those18:13
ali1234it's the backport of qtwebkit518:14
ali1234but you probably know this18:14
HoT|2fC^lo all :-)19:54
HoT|2fC^I have gone and 2 Netgear Powerlines today for the Basement as the Router/ADSL Modem is in my Room (second floor) so it's Router connect to Powerline then another Ethernet cable joining to my PC from the Router.19:56
HoT|2fC^But when I try and connect via the PC I don't get any connection19:56
HoT|2fC^Would I need a switch?19:57
AlanBellHoT|2fC^: I have some of them, they work great for me19:58
popeynope, shouldn't need to19:58
HoT|2fC^AlanBell, yeah works for me but I cant use the other 3 ports on my router.19:58
HoT|2fC^It's like the Powerline has taken over it lol!19:58
AlanBellerm, that shouldn't happen19:59
HoT|2fC^AlanBell, yeah must be faulty :/19:59
HoT|2fC^all I have done with the Router is Port Forward no Static IP or anything I auto DHCP an still didnt work :\19:59
AlanBellI have two powerline bricks and a powerline hub19:59
HoT|2fC^As I set a sttic on my PC.19:59
HoT|2fC^I like the bricks is that the WD's ?20:00
HoT|2fC^Black ones :)20:00
AlanBelltp link I think, grey ones20:00
HoT|2fC^aah nice :)20:00
AlanBellhttp://hencam.libertus.co.uk/ is coming to you over wifi and powerline networking20:00
AlanBellyou have to follow the instructions quite carefully to pair them up, then they just work like a long network cable20:02
AlanBellor possibly like a hub if you have more than just a pair20:02
popeyi had to do zero to pair devolo ones20:02
HoT|2fC^I want in my basement to have the powerline pluged in, then connected to a switch then wired from the switch to my PC and maybe a access point but one going outside outdoor :) then I want IP CCTV connected to that switch20:02
HoT|2fC^:o20:02
HoT|2fC^ah ok nice :)20:02
AlanBellI used power over ethernet to get 5V out to the chickens for the camera, but the cable isn't used for data, that goes over wifi20:03
ali1234won;t the hens get worried when the camera is moving?20:04
ali1234also why didn't you use the cable for data?20:04
AlanBellthey don't seem to be bothered by it20:04
ali1234you should make a chicken suit for the camera20:05
AlanBellheh20:05
HoT|2fC^lol20:05
HoT|2fC^thats awesome AlanBell :)20:05
AlanBellI didn't use the cable for data because I was planning to get the power out there a different way, and I wanted wifi that covers the garden anyway20:05
HoT|2fC^Here is my network I have put together, I know the laptop isnt wireless :) but I still connected it :D20:06
HoT|2fC^http://oi39.tinypic.com/4sfeoo.jpg20:06
ali1234even so no point wasting precious wifi bandwidth... i mean it's slow enough already20:06
AlanBellI was just going to shove 5v down the cable but it is crappy cheap aluminium out of spec chinese cable so I had to use a PoE injector to push 48v down it and regulate to 5v at the far end20:06
HoT|2fC^ali1234 cant be worse then my speed ;)20:06
ali1234i'm guessing it probably can if you;re able to maintain a connection to irc20:07
mungbeananuone used pocketmags? opinions?20:07
HoT|2fC^Can I run any switch off a powerline adaptor ?20:08
AlanBellspeed is fast enough, it doesn't slow me down as I normally use the wifi hotspot at the front of the house20:08
ali1234HoT|2fC^: yes20:08
HoT|2fC^ali1234: Thanks :>20:08
ali1234HoT|2fC^: just think of them as like a magical network cable20:08
HoT|2fC^Can I connect the Router into the Switch ? once connected to the Powerline ?20:09
ali1234or rather, think of the whole system as a hub20:09
AlanBellyou can in theory network stuff with the house 2 doors up the road with them20:09
ali1234eh, not really20:09
AlanBellhouses are apparently on three different phases20:09
ali1234you're lucky if they work between rooms in your house20:09
HoT|2fC^depends on your house wiring :)20:10
HoT|2fC^mines all new and it pushes max speed from my basement to my room.20:10
ali1234new wiring is worse20:10
HoT|2fC^really?20:10
ali1234those things work better on spurs20:10
HoT|2fC^lol20:10
AlanBellyeah, probably stuck on range, but my point is that next door is on a different phase so won't work in theory20:10
ali1234but standard since about 1952 is rings20:10
ali1234well i didn't know that20:11
ali1234so if i wire my electric to my neighbours, it will explode?20:11
AlanBellyeah, not a good plan20:11
popeyindeed20:11
popeydouble plus not good20:11
HoT|2fC^lol20:11
AlanBellbut two doors up should be fine :)20:11
popeybut wire to the neighbours 3 doors down and you're fine20:11
popeyFSVO "fine"20:11
ali1234alternatively if i want 3 phase in my house all i have to do is buy three houses in a row20:12

AzelphurMartijnVdS: yea I did that but I still had very high uptime21:34
MartijnVdSAzelphur: uptime goes up as long as you don't reboot :)21:34
Azelphurhaha21:34
ali1234one more build in this bisect :)22:03
MartijnVdS*\o/*22:04
Azelphurare there any distros roaming about that have rebootless kernel upgrades yet?22:22
Azelphurbesides oraclecrap22:22
MartijnVdSmaybe one or two niche ones22:22
Azelphurlame :(22:22
AzelphurI dunno why people are slacking so much on this, Linux being so prominent in the server market and all :P22:22
MartijnVdSAzelphur: rebootless kernels are *scary*22:22
Azelphurpfft22:23
MartijnVdSI mean.. the kernel data structures for sockets, file handles, etc. -- how does a rebootless kernel keep those sane?22:23
* Azelphur shrugs22:23
AzelphurI don't handle stuff on that low of a level22:23
ali1234the kernel does22:31
ali1234which is why you should worry about patching it in real time22:31
penguin42yeh there is the one that does the live patching which is kind of scary, the other way is to kexec into a new kernel22:34
penguin42but kexec kills all the processes off22:34
Azelphurhehe22:36
penguin42hmm the panorama creator in the new digiKam is interesting - a bit touchy but interesting22:59
