Unit193netritious: Oh, right.  Not doing a ton right now.00:08
netritiousgood morning locotn14:35
netritioushowdy wrst :)14:35
wrsthey hey netritious14:38
wrsthow are things going?14:38
netritioussame old, same old. you?14:38
wrstabout the same trying to get things folded up to roll a new year over14:39
netritioussounds like a lot of fun ;)14:40
netritiousrecently got aquainted with btrfs via some news feeds.15:11
netritioussounds promising15:12
wrstnetritious: yes it does, its just way behind ZFS on BSD if you are needing a file server I see no real compelling reason to use Linux over BSD15:20
cyberangerI see two compelling reasons, what one knows, and oracle18:09
wrstcyberanger: oracle?18:10
cyberangerI don't like getting too close to oracle's code18:11
wrstthe bsd and linux implementations of zfs are comletely seperate from oracle18:11
wrsteven to the point of making the version numbers so they will never intersect18:11
cyberangertrue, and there is now a new native version released in 2013, developed by lawrence livermore18:13
cyberangerI've been using ZFS on /mirror18:13
wrstcyberanger: under linux?18:13
cyberangerbtrfs for /18:13
cyberangerand ext2 for /boot18:13
wrstahh18:13
cyberangeryep18:14
wrstmy thing is freenas makes it so easy for me to have a great file server without much hassle at all18:14
cyberangerand no-exec set in fstab18:15
cyberangerand with lvm2 I can expand it easily, and I can expand zfs while mounted18:16
wrstnice18:16
cyberangerbut I find btrfs' force-compress to be nicer than what I've seen in zfs so far18:20
cyberangernetritious: did I tell you about dm-crypt and btrfs with force-compress?18:22
wrstI haven't used that but most of what I'm using zfs for is media files so its already compressed not a lot of use18:22
wrstcompressed somewhat18:22
cyberangerthere's additional benifits with crypto involved18:30
wrstof that I'm sure, on my home freenas box that's just not really necessary especially for family photos/videos etc18:45
* cyberanger wonders if wrst is really sure, or just taking my word for it ;-)18:47
wrstno actually have heard that18:47
wrstreally :)18:47
wrstbut did a lot of homework on zfs/freenas etc and still have a very limited knowledge of it18:47
* cyberanger likes this18:48
cyberangerwrst: learning crypto or just curious18:50
wrstcurious18:52
wrstdon't have the need... yet, or do we all have the need?18:52
cyberangerneed or desire18:53
wrstconsidering the times we may all have the need18:56
cyberangeryeah, trying times, but the law itself is fighting back too now19:09
cyberangergotta love case law > https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2013/12/historic-ruling-federal-judge-declares-nsa-mass-phone-surveillance-likely19:10
wrstcyberanger: that requires you to have people in power that acknowledge the constitution in the first place19:11
cyberangeryeah, and this means we have one more than last week19:11
wrsttrue but when many/most/all of our elected officials on use it when handy for their purposes and we keep electing them...19:13
cyberangerLord Acton said it best, "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men."19:18
cyberangerWilliam Pitt the Elder is a close second with "Unlimited power is apt to corrupt the minds of those who possess it"19:19
cyberangerI've been increasing my encryption usage, the strength of my ciphers, improving the way it's setup to minimize attack vectors19:25
cyberangermost are just normal for me, I can only think of two setup changes I did due to the NSA mess19:28
wrstwell you are pretty observant of the need for that anyway19:34
* cyberanger adjusts his tin foil hat to that compliment19:37
cyberangerI try19:40
cyberangerit helps to have an incentive, and I have a huge one19:42
wrstUnit193: looks like the gnome team is making nautiuls even more useless!20:41
Unit193Very likely, what now?20:42
