MaazKilos: Sure10:30
KilosMaaz, rusks please10:30

MaazCoffee's ready for charl and Kilos!10:31
KilosMaaz, gracias10:31
MaazKilos: ¡de nada!10:31
charlMaaz: thanks10:36
Maazcharl: No problem10:36
charldelicious, rusks, i haven't had those in ages10:36
charli don't think they sell those in europe10:36
Kiloswow10:37
Kilosdo they make buttermilk breads and buns10:37
Kilosthen you can make your own rusks10:38
charli don't think so10:38
Kilosgoogle bakeries man10:38
charlin NL and DE we have a ridiculous variety of baked goods10:38
charljust not that :P10:38
charlby the way, i was just wondering10:39
charldo any of you people use rtorrent?10:39
charlthe headless bittorrent client10:39
Kilosthat sucks. coffee and rusks be lekker10:39
charli just discovered a really strange thing, when i finish downloading a torrent it immediately stops seeding10:39
charlthen i stop the torrent, start it back up again, and immediately it starts seeding again10:39
charlthat without any custom configuration10:40
charlKilos: in germany they have these coffee pastries, really delicious with coffee10:40
charli should go across the border and buy a few again10:40
Kiloslol10:41
charltransmission is probably the worst bittorrent client of all times10:46
charlit constantly keeps thrasing the disk10:46
charleven when seeding10:46
charlktorrent is actually a really powerful client10:46
Kilosexplain seeding please10:47
KilosMaaz, define seeding10:48
MaazKilos: Seed \Seed\, v. t. [imp. & p. p. {Seeded}; p. pr. & vb. n. {Seeding}.] 1. To sprinkle with seed; to plant seeds in; to sow; as, to seed a field. [1913 Webster]  2. To cover thinly with something scattered; to ornament with seedlike decorations. [1913 Webster]  A sable mantle seeded with waking eyes. --B. Jonson. [1913 Webster]  {To seed down}, to sow with10:48
Maazgrass seed. [1913 Webster]10:48
charlis when you upload data to other people10:48
charlother people who are downloading the torrent you already downloaded10:48
charlor you have partially downloaded10:48
Kilosoh i see10:48
Kilostorrent is using many download palces for on download right?10:48
Kilosplaces10:49
charlyes it's a distributed content distribution system10:49
Kiloslike splitting the download 10:49
charlthe idea that each person downloads and uploads to others10:49
charlyou could say that yes10:49
charlfor example, crunchbang is only distributed via bittorrent (last i checked)10:49
charland it's nice to contribute by seeding it again for others10:50
Kilosso seeding is your bit its feeding?10:50
charlyes10:50
Kilosyeah i remember i downloaded crunchband and it was very fast download10:50
charlyes i downloaded it at work, i got about 70MBps download10:50
Kiloswow10:51
charlthat's megabyte, not megabit10:51
Kilosi understand B as to b10:51
charlyup10:51
Kilos1 byte = 8 bits10:51
charli'm on gigabit ethernet but i was quite surprised myself because mostly if you download via http it's around 20-30MBps from the internet10:52
Kiloswhew10:52
charlexactly so we're talking around 7*8=560mbps10:52
charlplus protocol overhead10:52
charlthere's also latency and packet loss and a whole lot of things that contribute to speed10:53
Kilosand per sec normally written /s10:53
charldepends on who you ask :)10:53
Kilosi dont ask i see output when downloading or upgrading10:54
charlbut that's acceptable yes10:54
charllol10:54
Kilosi watch whole thing10:54
Kilosi enjoy watching upgrade details10:55
Kilosyou see the tiny and large packages10:55
kbmonkeyam back10:55
Kiloswb kbmonkey 10:55
kbmonkeythanks10:57

kbmonkeyman I need to get some food in this place11:24
charldo any of you people know much about alsa and using it with a window manager like i311:25
charli am having a really irritating problem11:25
charlevery time i unplug my headphones from my laptop my speaker sound is set to mute11:25
charland i can't get it unmuted except by opening alsamixer11:26
charlpreviously while running kde4 i could just increase my volume again in the normal fashion by using fn+left and right arrow keys11:26
Kilosdont unplug headfones11:26
charlnah man i don't want to wear them all the time :P11:27
Kiloslol11:27
kbmonkeythat is weird charl11:27
charlit's sweaty in the summer11:27
charlit's hot now11:27
charlyeah kbmonkey 11:27
kbmonkeylag11:27
Kilosuse external speakers11:28
kbmonkeyas in ping lag not lol11:28
kbmonkeyhmm, must be a config issue11:28
charlin my ~/.i3/config i have the following two lines11:28
charlbindsym XF86AudioRaiseVolume exec amixer -q set Master 2dB+ unmute11:28
charlbindsym XF86AudioLowerVolume exec amixer -q set Master 2dB- unmute11:28
kbmonkeycould be a bug11:28
charli don't have a mute/unmute button on my laptop11:28
charlat work i have a mute/unmute button on my keyboard and i use an additional line11:29
charlbindsym XF86AudioMute exec amixer -q -D pulse set Master 1+ toggle11:29
charlthat works fine11:29
kbmonkeywhat version of alsa is it charl?11:29
charllatest version with ubuntu 13.04, lemme check11:29
charlamixer version 1.0.2511:29
kbmonkeymy laptop with headphones does not auto mute on unplug11:30
charli don't mind it i just want to be able to recover it again without opening alsamixer11:30
charlamixer doesn't do the job11:30
charlunmute doesn't work11:31
charlalsamixer works as expected though11:31
charlit must have something to do with amixer in other words11:31
charli have googled around but couldn't find a solution yet11:31
kbmonkeytry "amixer set Master toggle"11:33
kbmonkeyhello?..11:33
kbmonkeyhang on.. restting 3g...11:33
charlyes i tried that but didn't work11:33
kbmonkeydoes it toggle mute if you keep alsamixer in a oen window?11:34
kbmonkeyopen11:34
charlactually, muting works, it's just the unmute11:34
charlit mutes it but doesn't unmute11:34
kbmonkeyit mutes and unutes each time 11:34
charlnah first time it mutes fine but then second time it does nothing11:35
charljust keeps it muted11:35
kbmonkeythat is bizarre11:36
charlif i unmute it with alsamixer it mutes it again11:36
kbmonkeyso alsamixer shows it as unuted?11:36
charlbut then keeps it muted doesn't matter how many times i toggle11:36
charlno alsamixer shows it as muted11:36
kbmonkeybut it does not unmute11:36
kbmonkeywith amixer11:36
charlyes precisely11:36
charlbut i mean in the two above keyboard bindings it should unmute it in any case11:37
charlthe minute i adjust the volume11:37
charlhey wait a minute11:38
charlthis does work: amixer -q -D pulse set Master 1+ toggle11:38
charlsorry lemme just try something11:38
kbmonkeynot sure why you have +1 in there11:39
charlok found the problem, i need -D pulse11:39
charlthat makes the difference11:39
kbmonkeywas about to suggest you run amixer sscontrols to see the list of devices :D11:39
charlyeah i can take that out11:39
kbmonkeybha humbug. laggy typing11:40
kbmonkeybut you had -D pulse in your first command. how is that different?11:40
charlno only in the toggle11:41
charlin the volume up/down i didn't have that11:41
charli'll experiment with putting that in, that might solve the problem11:41
kbmonkeyah :)11:42
charlthe toggle i use at work because my keyboard has a mute button11:42
charli don't have that on my laptop11:42
kbmonkeyideally it should auto unmute, hey ;)11:42
charlnever realised that could be the issue until now11:42
charlyeah it's very strange11:42
kbmonkeysounds like a bug11:42
charlprobably is yes11:43
charlok well at least now i understand the problem (to some extent) so we made some progress11:43
charlthanks for the help :)11:43
Kiloskbmonkey, Telkom Mobile has rolled out over 1500 WiFi hotspots, offering an hour of usage to anyone.11:45

kbmonkeyonly 1 hour of internet ? bah humbug11:49
kbmonkeyI need 1x24 hours of internets :)11:49
Kiloslol i have 10g wifi data that for some reason just doesnt expire11:49
Kiloscame with topups free 2g a time11:50
Kilosbut you should chaeck if you get the connection man. isnt wifi cheaper than mobile11:51
kbmonkeyits not much of price but stability - these 2g things go up and down like a yoyo11:53
kbmonkeylol11:53
charlin NL the biggest cable company (ziggo) came out with a service that turned every cable modem into a wifi hotspot11:53
charlbut it's only available for use by other ziggo customers11:53
charlit went wrong on my router though so i disabled it11:54
charlgood idea but bad execution it seems11:54
charli have the ubee evw3200 which is one of the most standard cable modems around here11:55
charlhad to reset the thing a dozen times to get my connection working properly again after disabling wifispots11:55
kbmonkeyeish. seems like technology is a monster unto itself!11:57
kbmonkeyit's own worst enemy, hehe11:57
charli just blame it on lack of testing and bad execution11:58
charli just want my connection to work, i don't care about the rest :)11:58
kbmonkeyyes!11:58
charli'm quite happy with the dell optiplex i have at work12:01
charlapparently it uses less than 20 watt during idle12:02
charland the cpu temperature remains at a constant 21 degrees irrespective of the load12:02
charlthat's cool to the touch, impressive12:02
charlmy laptop runs a little hotter, at around 50 degrees12:04
charlbut it's also a laptop :P12:04
kbmonkeydoes the optiplex have a ssd drive?12:05
charlno regular magnetic disks12:07
charl2x internal 1x external connected via usb 3.0 (for backups)12:07
kbmonkeywow it runs very cool then!12:08
charlfirst is about half a terabyte (main system disk) and second is a terabyte (data disk)12:08
charland then 2TB for backups12:08
kbmonkeythe pyweek theme is only announces at 2am local time. 12:08
charlthe hard drives run slightly hotter at around 40 degrees each12:08
kbmonkeymaybe I will wake up at 4am to get going on that 12:09

charl"The song is featured in the film xXx, it is also featured during the CSI episode "Slaves of Las Vegas"."12:18
kbmonkeyxxx is such a porno film title12:18
charli thought so too12:18
charlmaybe that was what they were going for12:19
charlnow you must go google for "xxx film" and be careful what results you pull :P12:19
kbmonkeyah no worries I google that all the time!12:19
charllol12:20
kbmonkeyjokes12:20
charla friend told me to google "japanese newsreader" once12:20

charlbe careful when you include japanese in anything12:20
kbmonkeylol! yes it is a alien culture indeed12:21

charlit would be interesting to hear him talk12:28
charlwill somebody upload a video?12:28
kbmonkeyapparently they will be recording it12:29
kbmonkeynotably with non-free codecs. he must be furious about that :D12:29

charlplease ping me with the url when you have it17:06
theblazehenwill do17:07
kbmonkeycool theblazehen :D17:11
kbmonkeydid he rip anyone apart for asking a question? ;)17:11
theblazehenNope :(17:11
charlis he that terrible?17:12
kbmonkeyhe is known to do that and must be a sight to witness 17:12
theblazehenYeah :)17:12
kbmonkeyonly when the question deserves it of course!17:12
theblazehenI need to find a video on -youtube- I mean online17:12
theblazehenTrue kbmonkey 17:12
kbmonkeyhe is just very passionate is all.17:13
kbmonkeyI'd rather have him than steve balmer ha ha17:13
theblazehenI saw :D17:13
theblazehenEven convinced my friend to use retroshare17:13
charli've never used that either17:15
charlretroshare17:15
theblazehenBasically friend to friend network17:15
charli need to try it17:16
charli am using xmpp right now for instant messaging17:16
theblazehenWith chatrooms, forums, file sharing, and private messaging17:16
charlsounds good17:16
theblazehencharl, if you do, you can add my key17:16
charlok lemme put it on my list for the coming week17:16
theblazehenok17:16
charli'll ping you when i have it set up17:16
theblazehenawesome17:17
charlit's decentralised - does that mean you need a static ip?17:18
charlor does it have some centralised tracker?17:18
theblazehenNah, not sure how it does it, but most of my friends have dynamic17:19
theblazehenand it uses DHT17:19
theblazehendistributed hash tables17:19
charlhmmm i'm curious about how the protocol works17:20
charlDHT is great but you need a starting point17:20
theblazehenYeah, maybe when IP changes, you connect to friends with old IP, and tell them of new IP17:21
charlyeah but what if you go offline and all of your friends ips change17:23
charlthese fully distributed networks give me some concerns17:23
charlbut maybe i need to understand it better17:24
theblazehenyeah, well I never had problems17:24
charlyeah sorry i'm just one of those people i want to try and understand how everything works :)17:26
theblazehenSame here :D17:26
kbmonkeythink I heard of retroshare before,17:28
kbmonkeyis that where content is distributed across an encrypted network eh17:28
theblazehenyeah17:29
theblazehenbut only friend to friend17:29
theblazehenhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_lists_of_lists wow...17:31
kbmonkeylol17:31
kbmonkeyhttp://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Recursion17:33
charllol17:35
kbmonkeyso retroshare is a UI wrapper for pgp17:35
kbmonkeywith protocals for transferring data17:35
kbmonkeyerr, protocols17:35
charli think it's a little more complicated than that17:35
charli am interested in how the peer discovery works though17:36
charlthat has always been the most tricky part in any distributed effort17:36
theblazehenkbmonkey, sorta17:36
kbmonkeywith added bling :)17:36
theblazehencharl, yeah me too. If you find a good explanation, let me know?17:36
charli was watching the p2p-dns initiative a few years back17:36
charlit was one of the most active channels on efnet at the time17:37
charlbut met an early demise17:37
theblazehencharl, like namecoin?17:37
charlhaven't properly looked at namecoin yet17:37
theblazehenah ok17:37
theblazehenI'm gonna need to17:37
theblazehenAwesome speaker at SFD has a .name site17:38
charli'm looking at the wiki and it seems like it is using a combination of upnp and dht17:46
charlif you don't have upnp you need to either configure port forwarding manually17:46
charlor you need to make use of the relay servers17:47
charlthe german wikipedia article mentions relays, not even the english wikipedia page17:48
charl"Unterstützung von Relay, diese funktionieren ähnlich wie ein Proxy, optimal um eine dichte Firewall zu umgehen."17:48
kbmonkeycount von Relay - :D17:49
kbmonkeyI know the words but the concepts elude me17:49
charlit means support of relay, this functions as a proxy in order to go past a closed firewall17:51
charli don't see any mention of stun17:52
kbmonkeyso your pc can initiate connections?17:52
charlno it's because you can't connect directly between two hosts17:52
charli hate firewalls and nat17:52
charli want ipv6 :)17:53
kbmonkeymaybe we should start with the networking section in the LPI ;)17:53
charlstun was developed just to get past nat routing17:54
charlhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STUN17:55
charlretroshare uses upnp http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Plug_and_Play17:56
kbmonkeythat is interesting17:57
charlthat in turn uses this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Gateway_Device_Protocol17:57
theblazehenInteresting.18:10
theblazehenI hate going on wikipedia trips :(18:10
theblazehenAt least when I have stuff to do18:11
kbmonkeyreally feel like going to bed already, heh18:19
charllol18:19
charlthis is also quite interesting: http://www.maketecheasier.com/how-bittorrent-dht-peer-discovery-works/2013/06/1418:20
charlthe main problem is bootstrapping18:20
charlthat's where you need to connect to a known host to get the first few peers18:20
charlhttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/9451424/where-can-i-find-a-list-of-bittorent-dht-bootstrap-nodes18:21
charlthat's the only part that isn't fully dynamic and distributed18:22
charlbut you need it18:22
charlbah peer again18:25
adeebnqoHello everybody18:37
charlhi adeebnqo 18:39
adeebnqohowzit?18:39
charlgood you18:40
adeebnqoawesome. do you have any experience with cinnamon on ubuntu? my interface has been hanging alot these days -- was just wondering what could possibly be the reason18:42
charlonly experimented with it but haven't used it on a day-to-day basis18:43
charlmy experience has been that it is not terribly stable (yet)18:43
adeebnqooh ok, thnx.18:46
