* Maaz flips the salt-timer | 13:45 | |
Kilos | hi charl_ | 13:45 |
Kilos | Maaz, coffee please | 13:45 |
Maaz | Kilos: Okay | 13:45 |
Kilos | Maaz, and grandpa | 13:45 |
Maaz | ai! Kilos headache again? | 13:45 |
Kilos | charl_, you got time to explain something to me | 13:46 |
Kilos | english not geek | 13:46 |
charl_ | hi Kilos | 13:46 |
charl_ | sure thing, throw it | 13:46 |
charl_ | gooi should i say :) | 13:46 |
Kilos | what is a domain and whats the diffs between that and a site | 13:47 |
Kilos | i got a site at weebly and it keeps offering a domain | 13:47 |
Kilos | then i looked here for a freedomain thing http://www.prchecker.info/web-hosting/best-free-domain-name-services/ | 13:48 |
Kilos | but dont know what one would do with a domain and a site | 13:49 |
Maaz | Coffee's ready for charl_ and Kilos! | 13:49 |
Kilos | Maaz, ty | 13:49 |
Maaz | You are welcome Kilos | 13:49 |
charl_ | ok, here goes | 13:50 |
charl_ | a domain is something like google.com | 13:50 |
Kilos | sjoe | 13:50 |
charl_ | if you type that domain into your browser, a site opens | 13:51 |
Kilos | what does one do with a domain | 13:51 |
charl_ | that site will, in this case, be google search because that's the site that lives at google.com | 13:51 |
Kilos | oh so you have a site in a domain | 13:51 |
charl_ | a site could also live under the domain | 13:51 |
charl_ | for example you could have a site under example.com/kilos | 13:52 |
Kilos | and other peeps also have sites in that domain | 13:52 |
charl_ | a site is just a collection of web pages, usually maintained by the same person or the same group of people | 13:52 |
charl_ | yes i could have a site under example.com/charl | 13:52 |
charl_ | and there could be another site under the root of example.com | 13:52 |
Kilos | ok | 13:52 |
Kilos | so why would a person want a domain | 13:53 |
charl_ | you could also have a subdomain like kilos.example.com or charl.example.com | 13:53 |
charl_ | just because it makes it easy to find your site | 13:53 |
charl_ | these days most people just use google to find stuff in any case | 13:53 |
Kilos | huh? | 13:53 |
charl_ | so having a nice domain doesn't matter so much | 13:53 |
Kilos | is the diffs just in the address | 13:54 |
charl_ | yup | 13:54 |
charl_ | that's all it's about, is the address | 13:54 |
Kilos | ok | 13:54 |
charl_ | but you could also have more stuff like email, xmpp and other services like irc | 13:54 |
charl_ | for example, if you connect to freenode you go to irc.freenode.net for example | 13:54 |
Kilos | but if i have a site i can surely shorten the link | 13:54 |
charl_ | or i connect directly to a specific server in germany which is kornbluth.freenode.net | 13:54 |
Kilos | and somehow let google know about it | 13:54 |
charl_ | eh, google should automatically find stuff if you like to it from other places | 13:55 |
charl_ | you could use url shorteners too | 13:55 |
charl_ | but these days people usually don't care about that so much anymore | 13:55 |
charl_ | if you have a company it makes sense to have a domain in the country where you're based | 13:55 |
charl_ | but it's more a facade than anything else, just gives you that "corporate presence" | 13:55 |
Kilos | oh | 13:56 |
charl_ | for example, a company wants everyone to send email from an address @theirdomain.nl for example | 13:56 |
charl_ | it just makes it look coherent and professional | 13:56 |
charl_ | like you are officially representing the company, it comes across better than mailing @gmail.com | 13:56 |
charl_ | in reality it doesn't really make much of a technical difference, if the mail arrives then who cares | 13:56 |
Kilos | yeash | 13:57 |
charl_ | these days a lot of people just use forwarders and other fancy stuff to achieve the same effect | 13:57 |
charl_ | but it's like if you want to contact vodacom, you expect to mail someone @vodacom.co.za, not @gmail.com | 13:57 |
Kilos | oh now its sinking in | 13:57 |
charl_ | same if you want to go to vodacom's website | 13:58 |
charl_ | you would much rather go to vodacom.co.za than somevaguenonsense.example.com/someotherthing/andetc | 13:58 |
Kilos | thats surely for big companies | 13:59 |
charl_ | yes exactly | 13:59 |
charl_ | you get people like me who host everything on a vps and need my own domain for that too | 13:59 |
charl_ | like i use charl.eu for that purpose, it is nice and short, easy to remember | 13:59 |
charl_ | and it's very easy to tell people over the telephone | 13:59 |
charl_ | if somebody asks me what my address is it is simply <my first name>@<my first name>.eu | 13:59 |
charl_ | but most people don't need to go that far, an @gmail.com or @outlook.com or even @yahoo.com is good enough | 14:00 |
charl_ | all that i would not recommend is using your ISP's mailbox like @ziggo.nl for example | 14:00 |
charl_ | because then if you change ISP your mail address also changes | 14:00 |
Kilos | i want things as simple as possible | 14:01 |
Kilos | and just a small free site with a shopping cart | 14:01 |
charl_ | in south africa you _can_ register a free domain at www.za.net | 14:02 |
charl_ | then you can get something like kilos.za.net or kilos.za.org if you want (if it's available) | 14:02 |
charl_ | but then you still need to configure dns, etc | 14:02 |
Kilos | do they give you space for nothing | 14:02 |
charl_ | no only a domain | 14:02 |
charl_ | then you must point it at your web host where your site lives | 14:02 |
Kilos | again im lost | 14:02 |
charl_ | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_name_registrar | 14:03 |
Kilos | is a domain only a link to somewhere | 14:03 |
charl_ | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_hosting_service | 14:03 |
charl_ | yes exactly | 14:03 |
Kilos | not actually like a server somewhere | 14:03 |
charl_ | exactly | 14:03 |
charl_ | za.net is a domain registrar | 14:03 |
Kilos | whew | 14:04 |
charl_ | then you point it at a hosting service | 14:04 |
Kilos | ok | 14:04 |
charl_ | the above wikipedia links give in-depth detail | 14:04 |
Kilos | lets say i build a shopping site at weebly | 14:04 |
Kilos | then i get a domain and link the site to it? | 14:04 |
charl_ | yes | 14:05 |
charl_ | you will also need a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNS_hosting_service | 14:05 |
charl_ | so you register a domain, point it at a dns hosting service | 14:05 |
charl_ | and then you configure your dns at the dns hosting service to point to your hosting provider | 14:06 |
Kilos | whew that enough for today ty. unhappy head day | 14:06 |
charl_ | so you have three components you will need to get organised | 14:06 |
charl_ | shame sorry to hear :( | 14:06 |
charl_ | hope you feeling better soon! :) | 14:06 |
Kilos | its part of my life man. | 14:06 |
charl_ | nah but still | 14:06 |
Kilos | just some days worse | 14:06 |
charl_ | i just broke my arm two weeks ago | 14:07 |
Kilos | mainly after doing physical stuffs | 14:07 |
charl_ | it isn't even that serious but it upsets your routine | 14:07 |
Kilos | ya must be near plaster off time | 14:07 |
charl_ | got it removed this morning! | 14:07 |
Kilos | aha | 14:07 |
Kilos | now its thinner than the other one | 14:07 |
charl_ | yes just came back from the hospital before coming on irc | 14:08 |
charl_ | not really, but my arm did get stiff | 14:08 |
Kilos | nurse it for a while | 14:08 |
charl_ | so now i need to exercise it | 14:08 |
charl_ | but it's nice being able to turn my wrist again so i can type semi-normally | 14:08 |
Kilos | lotsa typing | 14:08 |
Kilos | hehe | 14:08 |
charl_ | it was so much problems not being able to type | 14:08 |
charl_ | and it was my right arm which is also my dominant arm | 14:08 |
Kilos | eish | 14:08 |
charl_ | so i had to do everything with my "weak" hand | 14:08 |
charl_ | not so nice, but of well, it's something that passes so not something i want to complain about too hard | 14:09 |
Kilos | lol | 14:09 |
charl_ | i think i am going to go out and buy some turkish food shortly | 14:09 |
Kilos | ty for the help | 14:09 |
charl_ | i am feeling like some donner kebab | 14:09 |
charl_ | doner with one n | 14:09 |
Kilos | what kinda kebab is that | 14:09 |
charl_ | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doner_kebab | 14:10 |
Kilos | kebabs are food | 14:10 |
Kilos | no man | 14:10 |
Kilos | stop the links | 14:10 |
charl_ | it comes from a rotating spit | 14:10 |
Kilos | they all tons to read | 14:10 |
charl_ | super popular with turks | 14:10 |
charl_ | Doner kebab (/ˈdɒnər kəˈbæb/, /ˈdoʊnər/; Turkish: döner or döner kebap, [døˈneɾ̝̊ keˈbap]) is a Turkish dish made of meat cooked on a vertical spit, normally lamb but also a mixture of veal or beef with these, or sometimes chicken. The dish is also widely known by its Arabic name "shawarma" or the Greek name "gyros". | 14:11 |
Kilos | lol i remember eating shawarmas in durbs | 14:11 |
Kilos | they cut bits of meat of a rotating leg on a spit | 14:12 |
Kilos | off | 14:12 |
charl_ | yes | 14:12 |
charl_ | that is it exactly | 14:12 |
charl_ | except here they put it in a bread (broodje doner) or a turkish pizza (lahmakun) | 14:13 |
charl_ | or they even make a "kapsalon" out of it | 14:13 |
charl_ | lahmacun sorry | 14:13 |
charl_ | it has a soft dough and you roll it up like a pancake | 14:13 |
charl_ | delicious | 14:13 |
Kilos | if i member right shawarmas are meat in a foldup kinda pastry | 14:14 |
Kilos | like 2 flat round slices of bread glued together aover about 3/4 of it | 14:14 |
charl_ | a pita bread yes | 14:15 |
charl_ | or that is what we use here | 14:15 |
Kilos | lekker | 14:15 |
charl_ | yes very :) | 14:15 |

charl_ | no olives are delicious (for me) | 14:16 |
Kilos | oooo i love oysters and mussels | 14:16 |

charl_ | whole olives, olive spread, whatever | 14:17 |
charl_ | i eat it | 14:17 |
charl_ | all kinds of olives, especially the dark ones | 14:17 |
Kilos | olives are like whisky | 14:17 |
Kilos | yuk | 14:17 |
charl_ | well at least there we can agree, i don't like whiskey either | 14:17 |
charl_ | i don't really drink any hard liquor, only beer | 14:17 |
charl_ | even wine i dislike | 14:18 |
charl_ | here at the christmas dinner we had at work i was offered some gluewein | 14:18 |
charl_ | glühwein | 14:18 |
Kilos | i dont drink any of that for last 20 years or more | 14:18 |

Kilos | haha | 16:04 |
charl_ | delicious though | 16:04 |
psychicist | hi charl_ | 16:11 |
charl_ | how's it going | 16:14 |
charl_ | the first bombs are being thrown already but it is much more quite this year than last year | 16:14 |
charl_ | the war seems to be less serious now with the recession than previously, people have less money to waste | 16:14 |
psychicist | I'm ok, still in the hague | 16:15 |
psychicist | haha | 16:15 |
psychicist | yeah | 16:15 |
charl_ | nice, how is the hague this time of year | 16:17 |
charl_ | here by us it is unusually warm | 16:17 |
charl_ | last time i went to the hague i went to scheveningen in the summer | 16:17 |
charl_ | oops apparently we had a massive ddos in the office | 17:11 |
charl_ | went in excess of 20gbps | 17:11 |
charl_ | fortunately our external capacity on that link is twice that | 17:11 |
charl_ | but from what i read it caused some bgp problems | 17:11 |
psychicist | oh, it's good | 17:14 |
psychicist | but it's also a war zone over here | 17:14 |
charl_ | i assume in the randstad it will be worse than over here in the east | 17:15 |
charl_ | but i still think this year is much more peaceful than last year | 17:15 |
psychicist | yeah | 17:16 |
psychicist | which is a good sign | 17:16 |
charl_ | well not a good sign for the economy though | 17:16 |
psychicist | that too | 17:17 |
charl_ | but i do enjoy the peace, i wish they would ban the fireworks | 17:17 |
psychicist | do you think the economy over here in the netherlands still needs a lot of time to recover? | 17:17 |
Kilos | just put ear plugs in man | 17:17 |
charl_ | Kilos: heh with this madness that won't even help | 17:18 |
psychicist | poland is improving year over year and probably the rest of eastern europe does too | 17:18 |
psychicist | haha | 17:18 |
charl_ | psychicist: i have no idea, i get mixed signals, some people say it's busy picking up, other people say we haven't seen the bottom yet | 17:18 |
Kilos | it must , the ones they use at shooting ranges | 17:18 |
psychicist | a lot of fireworks are just as powerful as dynamite, you can blow up cars with them | 17:18 |
charl_ | yeah but take a look at where they come from... there isn't much to lose :) | 17:18 |
psychicist | yeah :) | 17:18 |
charl_ | oh yes but those are not normal Kilos | 17:18 |
charl_ | i used to practise shooting, you have internal ones and ones that go over them | 17:19 |
charl_ | that's not comfortable at all | 17:19 |
Kilos | no man they got tiny rubber ones you push in your ears | 17:19 |
charl_ | but you have no alternative because you can go death from shooting too often | 17:19 |
charl_ | yes and big ones that go over them that look like the ones the people on the runway at the airport have on | 17:19 |
charl_ | or those are the ones that i used in any case | 17:19 |
charl_ | those ones are really good actually | 17:20 |
Kilos | or head fones from pc with music on | 17:20 |
Kilos | hehe | 17:20 |
charl_ | lol then you need to put the music on very loud and you go death from those | 17:20 |
charl_ | that | 17:20 |
Kilos | deaf | 17:20 |
charl_ | deaf sorry | 17:20 |
charl_ | haha | 17:20 |
Kilos | no man i did lots of shooting without ear plugs and still hear a bit | 17:21 |
Kilos | haha | 17:21 |
charl_ | lol | 17:22 |
charl_ | thank you that makes me feel much better :) | 17:22 |
Kilos | lol | 17:23 |
Kilos | you can always wrap a tick pillow over your head | 17:24 |
Kilos | thick | 17:24 |
charl_ | hahahahaha lekker | 17:24 |
charl_ | that sounds comfortable :) | 17:24 |
