[00:31] <ali1234> can you retweet a tweet @ someone who doesn't follow you?
[00:33] <popey> yes
[00:33] <popey> you can retweet anything so long as you can see it and the person doesn't have their stream private
[00:33] <ali1234> but when i click retweet it doesn't let me edit it... i'm too old for this stuff
[00:34] <ali1234> i'll just email them the link. lol

[06:46] <MooDoo> morning all
[07:08] <knightwise> morning MooDoo
[07:09] <MooDoo> knightwise: hello :) it's friday :)
[07:15] <knightwise> I kneuw :)
[07:16] <knightwise> I'm having soundconverter have a crack at some of the flac files I found online
[07:16]  * knightwise has a day off today 
[07:16] <knightwise> now I need to drag .epub files out of a recursive file directory structure into one folder
[07:17] <knightwise> still looking how to do that
[07:17] <knightwise> find -r *.epub /sourcedirs/ | mv /targetdir/
[07:17] <knightwise> probably not .. right ?
[07:19]  * MooDoo shrugs...sorry
[07:22] <diddledan__> knightwise: find /path/to/epub/parent *.epub -exec mv '{}' /target/epub/dir \;
[07:35] <knightwise> hey diddledan__ :) thanx ! :)
[07:35] <knightwise> found it in the meantime :)

[07:51] <Myrtti> morning
[07:51] <MartijnVdS> hey, new Java.
[07:52] <Myrtti> my trusty(!) virtual machine had gotten a booboo during the week I wasn't showing it TLC :-(
[07:52] <MartijnVdS> Myrtti: what happened?
[07:52] <Myrtti> no idea, it wouldn't boot
[07:52] <Myrtti> quicker to reinstall the whole thing and start over than to dig deeper
[07:53] <MartijnVdS> aww
[07:53] <Myrtti> I'm not experienced enough with the problems they have to waste time on problem solving
[07:53] <MartijnVdS> Myrtti: does it show any messages? would it be bugreport-worthy?
[07:54] <Myrtti> doubt it, it's more likely to be a PEBKAC than anything else
[07:55] <mapps> pebkac?
[07:56] <MartijnVdS> mapps: problem exists betweek keyboard and chaird. aka "user error"
[07:56] <mapps> ahh course
[07:56] <mapps> thx
[07:56] <diddledan__> PEBKAC tends to be the primary source of errors for me
[07:56] <MartijnVdS> diddledan__: get a bean bag instead
[07:56] <diddledan__> lol
[07:56] <diddledan__> I need a big ball
[07:57] <diddledan__> that way I'll improve my posture at the same time

[08:13] <diplo> Morning all
[08:21] <SuperMatt> I just went the longjohns route this morning
[08:21] <SuperMatt> so I'm nice and warm :D
[08:22] <DJones> Morning
[08:38] <TheOpenSourcerer> I got my wife a onesie for Xmas - she thinks it's great. It's purple with dots. Makes her look like a big baby :-)
[08:41] <mapps> doesnt everyone look like a big baby in them? They dont appeal to me at all:)
[09:01] <MartijnVdS> but they're nice and warm!
[09:03] <YaManicKill> Yeah, great for using in the winter, in the house.
[09:03] <YaManicKill> Never to be seen by other people :-P
[09:05] <directhex> nggggg
[09:06] <SuperMatt> I wouldn't be surprised if I saw people in their onesies popping down to the corner shop, or whatever
[09:06] <SuperMatt> because for some people laziness trumps decency
[09:08] <directhex> i've seen people in onesies in the town centre
[09:08] <directhex> also 25% packet loss wtf
[09:08] <popey> i saw someone in a onesie in the co-op recently
[09:08] <popey> she was buying chocolate
[09:08] <popey> pretty sure we knew what was going on there
[09:09] <TheOpenSourcerer> My missus won't go out in hers. But should think it's common in Banbury and Farnborough ;-)
[09:09] <MartijnVdS> TheOpenSourcerer: that article you retweeted mentions my employer (zaaksysteem.nl) :)
[09:09] <TheOpenSourcerer> :-D
[09:09] <popey>  my missus won't wear hers

[09:18] <MartijnVdS> SuperMatt: amazon
[09:18] <bigcalm> SuperMatt: Rackspace are paying you already?
[09:18] <foobarry> SuperMatt: i've seen people in their pyjamas in coop too
[09:19] <MartijnVdS> foobarry: The Dude?
[09:19] <foobarry> and slippers. buying superkings for their toddlers
[09:19] <SuperMatt> bigcalm: yes, fortunately
[09:19] <SuperMatt> and my last job's pay came in too
[09:19] <SuperMatt> a little too much in fact
[09:19] <SuperMatt> they called me yesterday in a panic because they over paid me
[09:20] <popey> bigcalm: sister, her kids
[09:20] <bigcalm> Ah, okay
[09:21] <SuperMatt> they want me to send the money back, but haven't actually sent the bacs details \o/

[09:29] <Laney> my first UDS was the one in "Brussels"
[09:30] <MartijnVdS> Laney: was there a room named that?

[09:30] <Laney> not sure, a magical coach took us there

[09:31] <MartijnVdS> Laney: ah, no, the real city of brussels. Didn't go there

[10:11] <MartijnVdS> FASTESTEST EVAR
[10:11] <MartijnVdS> In all of space and time!
[10:11] <diddledan__> :-)
[10:11] <davmor2> bigcalm: file a bug :)
[10:13] <YaManicKill> "It allows them to increase their capacity without having to spend much more money."
[10:13] <YaManicKill> Bet we'll see increase in prices though...
[10:13] <MartijnVdS> YaManicKill: also, transceivers aren't cheap
[10:13] <MartijnVdS> for fibre
[10:13] <YaManicKill> Yeah
[10:15] <diddledan__> I've got a gigabit-capable sfp port on my router - I want BT to install FTTP so that I can get superspeed
[10:15] <diddledan__> 40 Mbps just doesn't cut it
[10:15] <MartijnVdS> I have a gigabit media converter in my house (and fibre going into it)
[10:15] <MartijnVdS> but the other end is only 100mbit :(
[10:16] <MartijnVdS> hance I only have 100/100 at home
[10:16] <MartijnVdS> hence8
[10:16] <MartijnVdS> *
[10:17] <YaManicKill> I just want decent speed wifi. Need to save up my pennies and get a decent router. I'm on 76Mb/s internet, but with the router that they provided me with, I'm getting max of 4MB/s
[10:18] <MartijnVdS> wifi is never as fast as advertised
[10:18]  * popey hands YaManicKill an ethernet cable
[10:19] <YaManicKill> popey: Oh, where do I plug that into my phone?
[10:19] <popey> android phone?
[10:19] <YaManicKill> MartijnVdS: I know, but 4Mb/s is crap
[10:19] <YaManicKill> popey: of course
[10:19] <diddledan__> do any androids support usb-ethernet adapters?
[10:19] <popey> yeah, usb ethernet ☻
[10:19] <popey> apple ones are best ㋛
[10:19] <YaManicKill> Oh for crying out loud.
[10:19] <popey> why is your wifi so slow?
[10:20] <YaManicKill> What about my tablet? It doesn't support otg
[10:20] <popey> bummer
[10:20] <YaManicKill> popey: because it's a crappy router that plusnet gave me.
[10:20] <popey> ah, shame
[10:20] <diddledan__> plusnet -_-
[10:20] <diddledan__> cheap as chips
[10:20] <popey> i had the same with my vm box so bought a netgear and slapped dd-wrt on it
[10:20] <diddledan__> but not as tasty
[10:21] <YaManicKill> Aye, I'm just trying to prioritise money just now. Just bought a house, you see :-P
[10:21] <YaManicKill> s/bought a house/about to buy a house/
[10:24] <MartijnVdS> sounds like the best time to invest in a proper router ;)
[10:25] <YaManicKill> Yep, but just need to convince the wife we need a proper decent one.
[10:25] <YaManicKill> s/proper decent/wifi ac/
[10:27] <bigcalm> Constantly getting "Error: bad minute" from crontab. Are there rules for how comments should be constructed?
[10:27] <popey> # this is a comment
[10:27] <MartijnVdS> make sure # is at the start of the line
[10:28] <bigcalm> Yep, that's the case
[10:28] <MartijnVdS> bad minute could indicate someone used a minute > 59
[10:29] <bigcalm> I replaced all of the blank lines with # # and now it works
[10:29] <YaManicKill> ha
[10:29] <bigcalm> Since when does crontab not like blank lines?
[10:29] <MartijnVdS> bigcalm: then they weren't really blank. Did they contain spaces?
[10:29] <foobarry> when there's special characters
[10:29] <MartijnVdS> bigcalm: also.. DOS line endings maybe? :)
[10:31] <bigcalm> Ahhhh, the line endings could be the issue!
[10:32] <MartijnVdS> bigcalm: so.. do you want authorization to hurt the author? :)
[10:34] <bigcalm> MartijnVdS: chance would be a fine thing
[10:34] <bigcalm> ^M everywhere
[10:37] <MartijnVdS> who invented those horrible things anyway
[10:46] <davmor2> bigcalm: I never add blank lines to crontab.  I just type in the comment and then the command next line is the next comment.
[10:55] <bigcalm> Taken from a website somewhere: Crontab delimits jobs with line breaks (newlines). Each job occupies one line. Therefore, if crontab sees anything other than an integer in the first column of a line, it throws the “bad minute” error, since the minute argument is the first one crontab encounters.
[10:56] <Dave2> well that's wrong
[10:56] <Dave2> you can have comments in cron
[10:56] <foobarry> i remember getting emails from crontab in the past
[10:56] <bigcalm> Comments are ignored
[10:56] <foobarry> "there are blank lines in your corontab"
[10:56] <Dave2> Yes. But they are newlines which don't start with integers.
[10:56] <MartijnVdS> the cron I know can handle that fine
[10:56] <bigcalm> Would be nice if crontab would ignore blank lines as well
[10:57] <YaManicKill> Easy fix though... just have a blank comment line
[10:57] <YaManicKill> #
[10:57] <YaManicKill> Sorted :-)
[10:57] <bigcalm> This is the default cron in 12.04
[10:57] <MartijnVdS> Or a long comment line: 0 * * * * /bin/true
[10:57] <bigcalm> YaManicKill: just done that, looks horrible
[10:58] <YaManicKill> bigcalm: better than nothing
[10:58] <bigcalm> True
[10:58] <MartijnVdS> bigcalm: how does a default 12.04 crontab end up with dos line endings
[10:58] <bigcalm> I know, the deployment script can remove blank lines from the file before it copies to the destination
[10:58] <bigcalm> MartijnVdS: line endings are no longer the issue
[10:59] <MartijnVdS> bigcalm: Blank lines in crontab are fine in Ubuntu's cron
[10:59] <MartijnVdS> you're aware /etc/cron.d/* crontabs use a different format?
[10:59] <MartijnVdS> with the username to run as between the time and the command
[10:59] <MartijnVdS> man 5 crontab, too
[11:00] <MartijnVdS> that manual claims:
[11:00] <bigcalm> MartijnVdS: yes
[11:00] <MartijnVdS>        Blank lines and leading spaces and tabs are ignored.  Lines whose first
[11:00] <MartijnVdS>        non-space  character  is a hash-sign (#) are comments, and are ignored.
[11:00] <bigcalm> Yep, it's the line endings then. This is nuts
[11:00] <bigcalm> My IDE should be saving everything with \n
[11:01] <Dave2> The line ending, on a blank line, is also the line beginning.</zen>

[11:31] <bigcalm> Is there a cli util to convert line endings to \n for a given file/files?
[11:31] <MartijnVdS> bigcalm: "fromdos"
[11:31] <MartijnVdS> you can also use sed but that takes work to figure out :)

[12:46] <DJones> Have MS actually bought Nokia's mobile phone business, just a bit confused as to why Nokia would bring out an Android phone (even if it is supposed to be skinned to look like Windows mobile) if they're owned my MS
[12:47] <diddledan__> DJones: maybe they had that on the drawing board already before MS bought them
[12:47] <DJones> diddledan__: Yeah, thats what I'm guessing/reading
[12:47] <foobarry> Myrtti is our resident expert on these things
[12:47] <Myrtti> huh
[12:47] <Myrtti> what
[12:47] <Myrtti> where
[12:48] <foobarry> nokia stuffs
[12:48] <Myrtti> Nokia wasn't sold
[12:48]  * foobarry is dipping his BLT sandwich into carrot and coriander soup..yum
[12:48] <Myrtti> and Nokia isn't owned by MS
[12:48] <MartijnVdS> yet
[12:49] <diddledan__> Myrtti: afaik the phone business was
[12:49] <Myrtti> MartijnVdS: MS has no reason to buy the rest of the company
[12:49] <Myrtti> and it's doubtful it would be sold
[12:49] <DJones> diddledan__: As I read it, the deal hasn't been completed yet for the phone business yet
[12:50] <diddledan__> Myrtti: "nokia" isn't allowed to operate in a competitive field for 2 years last I heard of the "deal"
[12:50] <popey> 71%!
[12:51] <Myrtti> yes, but it's also probable that the Android development started before the purchase plans were published
[12:51] <Myrtti> so the fact they've done something like that isn't surprising at all
[12:52] <diddledan__> indeed, that would be my guess
[12:53] <Myrtti> Following the sale, Nokia will focus on three core business units; its Here mapping service (which Microsoft will license for four years under the deal), its infrastructure division Nokia Solutions and Networks (NSN), and on developing and licensing its "advanced technologies".
[12:54] <Myrtti> so whatever that R&D on 'advanced technologies' is...

[13:05] <MartijnVdS> popey: still fscking?
[13:05] <popey> ya
[13:06] <popey> disk blink very sporadically
[13:07] <bigcalm> How much of the HDD did you use in it?
[13:08] <bigcalm> I still have 2 doing nothing. No idea what to do with them
[13:08] <bigcalm> Anybody want 2 door stops?
[13:10] <popey> i think it was 80G
[13:11] <popey> I'm giving mine to @andysc because his died
[13:11] <DJones> bigcalm: If a relative was still alive, I'd tell her to ask you for a door stop, she used to use a 2" WW2 shell as a door stop
[13:11] <popey> forgot how quiet these are
[13:13] <bigcalm> No fan iirc
[13:13] <bigcalm> But a really REALLY bright blue LED on front
[13:13] <bigcalm> Which lights up a whole room, stopping one from sleeping. Tape to the rescue
[13:14] <MartijnVdS> solder and a regular diode :)
[13:15] <MartijnVdS> I'm thinking of getting a JBC362
[13:15] <MartijnVdS> fanless, dual gigabit ethernet
[13:19] <MartijnVdS> GMA500 graphics though.. but I'm not going to use that anyway
[13:20] <popey> 74!
[13:20] <popey> yeah, that LED is a bit bright
[13:20] <MartijnVdS> popey: wow, it's getting faster
[13:29] <davmor2> popey: isn't the first 50% finding out is there is issue and the final 50% fixing them :)
[13:32] <popey> 75
[13:33] <JGJones> popey - is it your btrfs partition?
[13:33] <popey> no
[13:33] <popey> a viglen
[13:33] <davmor2> JGJones: no on lucid :)#
[13:36] <JGJones> ah. Should get a Granny™ to do it. They're very patient. (Was told by a friend upgrading a PC for his gran recently. 256MB. And she was using Vista. No it's not slow for her).
[13:52] <MartijnVdS> popey: has it hit 80% yet?
[13:53] <popey> 77
[13:53] <MartijnVdS> what's it *doing*
[13:55] <popey> well indeed
[13:55] <popey> i just see a plymouth(?) screen and a checking thing
[14:01] <SuperMatt> wooo, dkim set up on my server
[14:02] <Laney> OH GOD NOT THE ARCHERS
[14:08] <czajkowski> someone put me out of my misery
[14:09] <czajkowski> can you alphabetical sort stuff on lo or google docs
[14:09] <czajkowski> or is it staring me in the face
[14:11] <TheOpenSourcerer> czajkowski: yes
[14:13] <czajkowski> yes it's starting at me where......
[14:13] <TheOpenSourcerer> What, exactly, do you want to sort?
[14:13] <czajkowski> a list of cities
[14:13] <czajkowski> *cities
[14:13] <TheOpenSourcerer> In a spreadsheet?
[14:14] <czajkowski> nope in a plai document
[14:14] <MartijnVdS> czajkowski: sort list_of_cities.txt
[14:14] <czajkowski> I was going to use a spreadsheet but if I copy that into the document it copies the table and I don't need the table
[14:14] <MartijnVdS> czajkowski: sort list_of_cities.txt > sorted_list_of_cities.txt (don't use the same filename twice!)
[14:14] <MartijnVdS> czajkowski: can't you shift+paste ("Paste Special" -> text only)
[14:15] <czajkowski> hmmmm
[14:15] <czajkowski> that may work
[14:15] <czajkowski> seems to be a fairly simple thing to want to do in a document but missing from LO and Google docs
[14:16] <bashrc> add it as a feature request
[14:16] <TheOpenSourcerer> You can do this in spreadsheet - not sure about in a writer or doc...
[14:17] <MartijnVdS> also, it would work if you used LaTeX source and vim ;)
[14:18] <czajkowski> MartijnVdS: bah
[14:18] <czajkowski> bashrc: indeed
[14:18] <TheOpenSourcerer> why not just C&P into something that you can sort then C&P back?
[14:18] <popey> thats what I'd do
[14:19] <czajkowski> true I guess
[14:19] <czajkowski> just baffling that it's missing
[14:20] <popey> 80
[14:20] <TheOpenSourcerer> 65
[14:20] <SuperMatt> 12
[14:20] <MartijnVdS> 42
[14:21] <SuperMatt> Mornington Crescent
[14:21] <davmor2> czajkowski: don't forget that documents are dumb.  The cleverness comes from what you do with it.  Like running sort etc
[14:21] <TheOpenSourcerer> gah!
[14:21] <TheOpenSourcerer> 8
[14:21] <TheOpenSourcerer> Mornington Crescent!
[14:21] <MartijnVdS> that's numberwang!
[14:21] <SuperMatt> too slow man
[14:21] <SuperMatt> I've already won
[14:21] <TheOpenSourcerer> I had it ready
[14:22] <TheOpenSourcerer> but got sidetracked by a though about Ajax.
[14:22] <TheOpenSourcerer> s/thought
[14:26] <czajkowski> right sorted it
[14:26] <czajkowski> into spreadsheet and sort it
[14:26] <czajkowski> thanks folks
[14:29] <SuperMatt> huzzah!
[14:36] <popey> 82 ☹
[14:36] <czajkowski> what game are we playing
[14:36] <czajkowski> 4 - the hours left in todays work day :)
[14:37] <popey> percentage fscked of my viglen I booted up after an unknown period of time
[14:38] <foobarry> why so slow?
[14:38] <foobarry> i had sparc 10's fsck quicker than that
[14:38] <popey> no idea
[14:39] <popey> i cant tell what it's doing
[14:39] <popey> it's an 80GB HDD with an AMD Geode CPU and not much RAM
[14:56] <diddledan__> I like how when you say "it's fscking the disc" it could conceivably be either good OR bad
[14:56] <diddledan__> ARGH MY DISC IS FSCKED!
[14:56] <diddledan__> or dammit it fscked my disc last night!
[14:56] <popey> 84
[14:58] <SuperMatt> I think it'll be just about done by dinner time
[14:58] <diddledan__> lol
[15:01] <brobostigon> https://github.com/keelanc/bcsexagesimal/blob/master/src/bcsexagesimal.c now this i like.
[15:08] <foobarry> operation "close chrome tabs" is in effect
[15:10] <diplo> Sorry, the program "run" closed unexpectedly
[15:10] <diplo> :)
[15:10] <foobarry> diplo: #windows?
[15:11] <diplo> Nope 13.10
[15:11] <diddledan__> "run"?
[15:11] <diddledan__> that's a very generic program name
[15:11] <foobarry> a.out ?
[15:11] <diddledan__> lol
[15:11] <diplo> heh, why I posted it, was Hotot crashed
[15:12] <foobarry> i remember hotot
[15:12] <foobarry> used to use it years ago
[15:12] <diplo> This PC stays on 24/5 - But after 2 days or so Hotot crashes with that
[15:13] <diplo> Not really an inconvenience but maybe worth bug reporting it I guess
[15:13] <popey> 86!
[15:13] <MartijnVdS> popey: maybe it'll get to 100% before the weekend!
[15:41] <Myrtti> suction cups are stupid
[15:41] <Myrtti> I've got an obsession on sticking them on the skin
[15:45] <Dave2> That's one way to interpret that
[15:45] <Dave2> Although now I bet the next time I see a suction cup I'm going to try that. (I probably have too much hair for one to stick though.)
[15:46] <MartijnVdS> Dave2: try when you've just shaved
[15:46] <Myrtti> don't put it on your forehead for prolonged periods.
[15:46] <Myrtti> nuff said
[15:46] <MartijnVdS> Myrtti: why?
[15:46] <Myrtti> don't put it anywhere visible for prolonged periods
[15:47] <Myrtti> MartijnVdS: because suction cups suc
[15:47] <Myrtti> suck
[15:47] <Dave2> I'd hope they do
[15:47] <Dave2> MartijnVdS: now that's an idea.
[15:49] <Myrtti> if you didn't get the wisdom behind 'suction cups suck' and 'don't put them anywhere visible on your skin for prolonged periods', don't worry, it'll appear to you in about half an hour
[15:50] <Myrtti> I'm obviously *not* speaking from experience
[15:50] <Dave2> Now you're just making me want to try even more.
[15:57] <JGJones> Is there a package for that?
[15:57] <popey> 90
[15:58] <JGJones> What time did you start popey?
[15:58] <popey> ~12:30
[15:59]  * DJones predicts a power cut at popey's in about an hour
[16:01] <popey> hah
[16:14] <JGJones> Storms expected tonight. High possibility of power cuts.
[16:15] <JGJones> Oh nothing to worry about, it's not as if we have anything we're waiting for.
[16:15] <foobarry> waiting 2 weeks for 2 repair man to arrive
[16:28] <popey> oh ffs
[16:28] <popey> laptop froze, rebooted
[16:28] <popey> now x wont start
[16:28] <popey> [    13.922] (EE) Server terminated successfully (0). Closing log file.
[16:28] <popey> what the hell
[16:30] <popey> restarted lightdm
[17:02] <popey> 91
[17:09] <davmor2> popey: man that is still going
[17:09] <popey> ya
[17:10] <popey> disk is probably utterly broken
[17:10] <popey> and when it finally boots there'll be like a bazillion broken sectors
[17:25] <bigcalm> popey: want a replacement? ;)
[17:25] <popey> hah
[17:27] <bigcalm> Surprised but pleased that the Revo is still working well as my parents' server
[17:28] <popey> yeah, my revo is chugging along
[17:36] <diddledan__> first generation atoms those if memory serves?
[17:42] <popey> ya
[17:42] <popey> atom + nvidia
[17:43] <diddledan__> the nvidia chip was actually pretty awesome
[17:43] <popey> yeah
[17:43] <popey> with vdpau it was
[17:43] <diddledan__> made it a sweet media-centre with vdpau
[17:50] <brobostigon> any suggestions for a more detailed android battery usage meters, than the standard one. please.
[17:57] <popey> brobostigon: battery widget
[17:57] <brobostigon> thank you popey
[17:57] <popey> \o/ fsck done!
[17:57] <brobostigon> :)
[18:03] <bigcalm> Do I order this or keep looking? http://www.amazon.co.uk/TP-LINK-TL-SG108-8-Port-Gigabit-Ethernet/dp/B00A121WN6/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pd_S_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=LXT6MFP2WUWA&coliid=I3CSVGNLRUBWZ4
[18:04] <diddledan__> popey: does it still work?
[18:04] <popey> kinda
[18:04] <diddledan__> bigcalm: switches got cheap
[18:04] <bigcalm> diddledan__: they did
[18:05] <popey> looks okay
[18:05] <diddledan__> bigcalm: I remember buying a huge-ass 10Mbps HUB (NOT switch) for just shy of a ton back in the 90s
[18:05] <bigcalm> I want this though: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B005UGRIIG/ref=s9_simh_gw_p147_d3_i1?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=07N8057S8YWC7WBNRSXB&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=455344027&pf_rd_i=468294
[18:06] <diddledan__> yeah, the netgear prosafe range are pretty solid
[18:06] <bigcalm> popey: want to buy back this WNDR3700? ;)
[18:06] <popey> hah
[18:06] <popey> what's wrong with it?
[18:06] <popey> also, how much did you give me for it?
[18:06] <diddledan__> not enough ports :-p
[18:07] <popey> (I may)
[18:07] <diddledan__> popey: does he make a loss on it, break even or get a small profit (should you buy it back)?
[18:08] <diddledan__> :-p
[18:09] <bigcalm> popey: nothing wrong with it except that I need more than the 4 ethernet ports it provides.
[18:09] <bigcalm> popey: £50
[18:09] <popey> ahhh
[18:10] <bigcalm> It might make me consider the Netgear Wireless-N 8 Port Gigabit VPN Firewall
[18:11] <bigcalm> I still have this WNDR3800 I bricked. Never got around to trying to fix it
[18:13] <bigcalm> Anybody heard of / used pcmshop.com ?   http://www.pcmshop.info/Netgear-8-Port-ProSafe-Wireless-N-Gigabit-VPN-Firewall-FVS318N-100NAS-A5485530
[18:15] <ali1234> i'll give you £20 for the WNDR3800. or i'll fix it for £20.
[18:16] <bigcalm> There's no advantage of doing so (for me) as it's the same number of ports
[18:17] <bigcalm> I have a usb ttl device, just need to get around to plugging it in
[18:19] <bigcalm> I wonder if the netgear switch I'm looking at has the NSA loving going on
[18:21] <MartijnVdS> bigcalm: dumb switch or smart
[18:21] <bigcalm> MartijnVdS: the one with wifi, so smart
[18:21] <MartijnVdS> bigcalm: then maybe
[18:22] <MartijnVdS> bigcalm: but if it's firewalled so it can't talk to the outside AND nothing from the outside can talk to it.. how is it going to talk to them?
[18:22] <bigcalm> ...
[18:23] <bigcalm> I want to buy this as it'll mean that I don't need an extra mains socket in use
[18:23] <bigcalm> I like things to be neat
[18:25] <bigcalm> popey: or was is £70. One of those two numbers anyway :)
[18:29] <DJones> bigcalm: Has your laptop arrived yet?
[18:30] <DJones> Missed the last 48 hours on IRC due to a funeral
[18:30] <bigcalm> DJones: sorry man :(
[18:30] <bigcalm> DJones: https://twitter.com/bigcalm/status/426375609325858816/photo/1
[18:31] <bigcalm> DJones: very nice so far. Had a problem with 14.04 where the laptop would power back on after being told to shut down. But that issue appears to have gone away after trying the upstream kernel and then going back to the ubuntu one - most odd
[18:32] <bigcalm> DJones: the keys will take some getting used to. They remind me of the keys on a public internet phone
[18:32] <bigcalm> DJones: the mouse pad is annoying as the left and right mouse buttons are also track pad
[18:32] <ali1234> MartijnVdS: what they do is intercept the package after it leaves the seller and before it gets to you. they put in a small circuit board which is about 1cmx1cm, and that contains a radio that copies all ethernet packets. they can then monitor you from up to 8 miles away.
[18:32] <bigcalm> DJones: the touch screen is just a gimmick (to me) as Ubuntu isn't really set up for touch yet
[18:33] <DJones> bigcalm: Interesting, at least it will install Ubuntu without issues from the sound of things
[18:33] <MartijnVdS> ali1234: ah wait that one. Just open the case yourself first :)
[18:33] <DJones> bigcalm: But looks nice
[18:33] <bigcalm> DJones: yes. As long as the install media isn't corrupted (as mine was 1st time)
[18:33] <ali1234> yeah the thing is that that small circuit is built into the ethernet connector
[18:33] <ali1234> so you won't see it if you just open the case
[18:33] <MartijnVdS> ali1234: also, 8 miles? I can't even get wifi over 100m
[18:33] <ali1234> you have to xray the circuit board
[18:34] <ali1234> it might have been 8km. probably not though, US hates metric
[18:34] <DJones> bigcalm: Its tempting......................................
[18:34] <bigcalm> DJones: it's heavy - cast AU. Also getting used to it
[18:34] <DJones> bigcalm: How is it with Minecraft
[18:34] <bigcalm> DJones: yet to try that! Heh
[18:34] <DJones> Thats the killer app...
[18:34] <MartijnVdS> bigcalm: cast Al I hope. Au is a bit expensive to make laptops out ofg
[18:35] <bigcalm> Erm, yes, Al :D
[18:35] <DJones> Cast Gold?
[18:36] <MartijnVdS> DJones: you don't have a gold laptop?
[18:36] <bigcalm> DJones: the battery is under the back panel that has to be unscrewed to access. So don't expect a 3rd party enhancement any time soon
[18:36] <bigcalm> DJones: I've yet to see what the battery performance is like yet. Only been setting things up so far
[18:37] <DJones> bigcalm: Cheers, will give it a week then will poke your brain
[18:37] <MartijnVdS> bigcalm: my XPS-12 can go for about 6 hours
[18:37] <bigcalm> DJones: this is the output of lspci http://paste.ubuntu.com/6803821/ - Bloody optimus :S
[18:37] <DJones> Heh, thought that might be an issue
[18:37] <bigcalm> DJones: don't leave it too long, Dell are doing free shipping at the moment
[18:38] <bigcalm> MartijnVdS: this isn't an XPS and it's a larger screen. I have high hopes though :)
[18:38] <MartijnVdS> bigcalm: it is haswell though, right?
[18:38] <DJones> bigcalm: ...points at work credit credit card...
[18:38] <bigcalm> MartijnVdS: yes
[18:39] <bigcalm> DJones: if you make it a work purchase, I'm sure you could get it cheaper than the 799 I paid
[18:39] <bigcalm> MartijnVdS: what's haswell?
[18:39] <MartijnVdS> bigcalm: your laptop
[18:39] <MartijnVdS> CPU
[18:40] <bigcalm> Ah, okay
[18:40] <DJones> bigcalm: Probably not
[18:41] <bigcalm> DJones: work bought me my Alienware X51 - much cheaper than doing so as a consumer as the sales reps all want the commission so can drop the price
[18:41] <DJones> bigcalm: Don't think there will be much difference
[18:43] <bigcalm> I'll check Minecraft in a bit ;)
[19:05] <davmor2> bigcalm: sometimes I wonder if you bother to read the things you paste what haswell ;)
[19:13] <mapps> phw my nexus7 charged
[19:13] <mapps> thought it was broked:D wouldnt turn on and didnt show the battery icon when i plugged it in
[19:13] <mapps> but left it for hours and its now charged and powered up
[19:15] <diddledan__> mapps: running ubuntu?
[19:19] <mapps> nope
[19:20] <mapps> not tried that yet
[19:20] <mapps> perhapos i should
[19:21] <bigcalm> davmor2: I really don't know what haswell is though :)
[19:21] <diddledan__> I've read that in the past some people have had issues similar to that when running ubuntu on there where their device will drain down so completely that it won't charge (sometimes using a specific model of charger has overcome the problem)
[19:22]  * bigcalm doesn't know about hardware
[19:22]  * bigcalm goes to eat food instead
[19:22] <davmor2> bigcalm: the line from your lspci paste actually gives a pretty good description hence saying what I said :P
[19:22] <mapps> diddledan__,  i remember reading that same happens with nexus7 running droid ..if its drains completely it takes hours to charge..but there was also the problem where it wouldnt charge at all sometimes..my first n7 i had to take back to argos
[19:22] <mapps> it ran down and then no matter what i did couldnbt get ut to charge up
[19:24] <MartijnVdS> wow. g+ is flaky atm
[19:24] <diddledan__> I guess when it completely runs out of juice the hardware can't rebootstrap enough to get the charging software to put the device into a charging state until after it's got enough charge to be able to run the software (catch 22)
[19:24] <diddledan__> software/firmware
[19:24] <mapps> yea
[19:24] <mapps> i never used g+
[19:24] <mapps> :D
[19:24] <diddledan__> I forget to use g+
[19:24] <davmor2> diddledan__: I haven't had that issue
[19:25] <diddledan__> also most the folk I know apart from you lot aren't on there
[19:26] <diddledan__> one major annoyance I have with g+ is that it doesn't ajax new content until you click the "new" button
[19:26] <davmor2> diddledan__: are you saying you know people outside of us?  :P
[19:26] <diddledan__> davmor2: good point
[19:27] <diddledan__> so when does google become wayland corp and own the entire planet?
[19:28] <mapps> ya
[19:28] <mapps> free taxis
[19:28] <mapps> whatever next
[19:29] <davmor2> diddledan__: no Intel become wayland.  Google become skynet
[19:29] <mapps> what a nuisance..lost my passport between manchester airport and home;/
[19:29] <diddledan__> ergh, mapps that sucks
[19:30] <mapps> gotta get a replacement lost/stolen fill in a new form..a lost form 2 new photos AND get it all countersigned
[19:30] <diddledan__> and, free taxis? shuddup and take my money!
[19:30] <mapps> right pain if it was a rep[lacement dont need countersign but as its lost i do..luckily my friends wifes a teacher
[19:30] <diddledan__> oh. no money involved.
[19:30] <mapps> but it also says 'may have to come for an interview to prove your identity' lol shouldnt they be more worred about the people they dont know are here and illegals on fake passports..than me a genuine brit
[19:31] <mapps> thinking of going away in March too so must get it sorted
[19:31] <mapps> :)
[19:34] <DJones> mapps: How do they know you're a genuine BRIT though, as against somebody who's looked at a gravestone for a random DOB
[19:35] <mapps> hm
[19:35] <mapps> well
[19:35] <mapps> it asks my mum/dads dob place of birty etc too
[19:36] <DJones> Yeah, but .... google.... or more specialised family history websites
[19:36] <diddledan__> they should implant a chip at birth and then you can just wave your foot over a head-height scanner
[19:37] <MartijnVdS> "Sorry, you can't ride this roller coaster"
[19:37] <DJones> diddledan__: Only after the replacement hips
[19:37] <DJones> diddledan__: You have a lot of tails
[19:38] <diddledan__> either that or minority-report style retina scanners everywhere
[19:38] <shauno> I'd totally be in favour of the implant idea, if we could actually trust anyone to compartmentalize data cleanly
[19:39] <diddledan__> shauno: gchq are being fasttracked through the court of human rights
[19:39] <diddledan__> technically it's a challenge to gchq that's being fasttracked**
[19:40] <diddledan__> I guess the court things something might be amiss?
[19:43] <mapps> about what?
[19:43] <mapps> and yes retina scanners/chips :D do away with passports
[19:43] <mapps> heh
[19:45] <shauno> just saying I like the idea but not the side effects.  I like the idea of having scanners in door handles so your front door works magically; in laptops so it only works for the right users, etc
[19:45] <shauno> but my landlord, employer, border control, boots don't all need access to the same info.  and we've wound up in a strange place where they all would
[19:48] <DJones> shauno: as long as you don't work for google/ms/spammer/government/nsa etc I'm sure the info wouldn't be available :)
[20:00] <shauno> I dunno.  tesco probably know more about me than the state.  phillips probably have better records of when I'm home or not than I do.  it's pretty much everywhere now
[20:04] <Myrtti> stupid Google
[20:10] <mapps> that was strange
[20:10] <mapps> https://94.193.78.219/testing/ is my dir containing cgiirc on my server and it was saying server error..perhaps downtime or exceeded capacity..restarted apache and it worked fine hm
[20:30] <shauno> hah, I just noticed valve released their own version of 'ye olde steamos'.  very cool  (yes, I'm a bit late)
[20:30] <daftykins> :D
[20:31] <directhex> yeah, but theirs doesn't support dmraid
[20:31] <directhex> i do a video of that, and i get a queue out the door of people offering me "services" as thanks
[20:31] <shauno> yeah, I noticed your comparison on the forum
[20:32] <diddledan__> "services"?
[20:32] <diddledan__> as in personal or bona fide?
[20:33] <MartijnVdS> pro bono?
[20:36] <mapps> what would it be useful for shauno
[20:38] <MartijnVdS>  oh wow.. look what I just found: http://i.imgur.com/vy9q7tf.jpg
[20:38] <diddledan__> which version of the kernel was that?
[20:39] <MartijnVdS> let me check
[20:39] <diddledan__> 2.4 or earlier? :-p
[20:39] <MartijnVdS> it has http://www.toms.net/rb/ on it
[20:39] <diddledan__> 16MB of RAMS!
[20:39] <MartijnVdS> diddledan__: "Slink and a half with a 2.2.13 kernel"
[20:39] <shauno> heh, I still have the old-style fsf membership 'card' in the same format
[20:40] <diddledan__> I'd like to see you try to put it into a slot-load dvd drive :-p
[20:40] <diddledan__> aka every mac since 2005
[20:40] <MartijnVdS> all files are from 1999-2000
[20:40] <diddledan__> nice
[20:41] <MartijnVdS> january 2000
[20:41] <shauno> heh, my mac doesn't have a dvd drive :)  but the one ones are usb
[20:41] <diddledan__> shauno: yeah, but that's because you broke it
[20:42] <shauno> nah it still works.  it's in a drawer somewhere, I think
[20:42] <diddledan__> my mac has a usb dvd drive because it didn't come with one
[20:43] <MartijnVdS> I'm going to boot it in a vm
[20:43] <MartijnVdS> or not.. I'm going to make an iso anyway
[20:44] <diddledan__> it'll fly even in qemu's emulation mode (as opposed to hardwared virtualisation - kvm or kqemu e.g.)
[20:44] <MartijnVdS> diddledan__: oh probably :)
[20:44] <shauno> I appear to have broken my fireplace.  I didn't know that was possible :/
[20:44] <daftykins> as in an electric/gas fire unit?
[20:44] <MartijnVdS> shauno: chimney fire?
[20:45] <diddledan__> shauno: you're pretty good at breaking things
[20:45] <shauno> nah, the grate snapped
[20:45] <shauno> not gas/electric, fireplace = a hole in the wall you burn stuff in
[20:45] <daftykins> fair enough
[20:45] <diddledan__> like photos of the ex?
[20:45] <daftykins> the term is often misused
[20:46] <diddledan__> or better - like voodoo dolls of the ex?
[20:48] <daftykins> nearly time for your weekend sleeping pills diddledan! :D
[20:48] <diddledan__> :-p
[20:49] <MartijnVdS> http://tomorrowcorporation.com/littleinferno (available on steam on linux)
[20:58] <Azelphur> hey MartijnVdS a while back we were working on getting my IPv6 going, and my ISP needed to give me some details and activate me
[20:59] <MartijnVdS> Azelphur: and, did they? :)
[20:59] <Azelphur> MartijnVdS: they did indeed, here's the info they gave me http://pastebin.com/ZpaHmQWa
[20:59] <MartijnVdS> Azelphur: ah so it's a manual job :)
[20:59] <Azelphur> hehe
[21:00] <diddledan__> google+ being down has made the news: http://techcrunch.com/2014/01/24/gmail-goes-down-across-the-world/
[21:00] <Azelphur> so on openwrt, I assume I'm editing my wan6 interface
[21:00] <MartijnVdS> Azelphur: can you paste your /etc/config/network as well?
[21:00] <MartijnVdS> Azelphur: (you can blank out any passwords)
[21:01] <diddledan__> Azelphur: which isp are you using?
[21:01] <diddledan__> (sheer curiosity here)
[21:01] <Azelphur> MartijnVdS: http://pastebin.com/i0f8JYnj
[21:01] <Azelphur> diddledan__: enta.net
[21:04] <MartijnVdS> Azelphur: http://pastebin.com/EpSxJLgu -- I've modified it a bit :)
[21:05] <Azelphur> oO
[21:05] <MartijnVdS> Azelphur: - ip6assign on interface lan is now 64, so autoconfigure will actually work
[21:05] <MartijnVdS> Azelphur: - wan6 is now static/manually configured
[21:05] <Azelphur> so just drop that config in, and then networking restart?
[21:05] <MartijnVdS> I suppose
[21:06] <diddledan__> except ipv4 won't work then
[21:06] <diddledan__> oh wait
[21:06] <diddledan__> ignore me
[21:06] <diddledan__> ip4 is configged by pppoe
[21:06] <MartijnVdS> /ignore diddledan__
[21:06] <diddledan__> /nick diddledan_
[21:08]  * MartijnVdS hopes Azelphur didn't drop off the net
[21:11] <Azelphur> MartijnVdS: nah, I'm back
[21:11] <Azelphur> it's actually looking a little hopeful
[21:11] <Azelphur> MartijnVdS: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3832397/screenshots/2014/Jan/2014-01-24-211126_1702x915_scrot.png
[21:12] <Azelphur> but http://test-ipv6.com/ says I don't have IPv6 :(
[21:12] <MartijnVdS> Azelphur: let me try :)
[21:12] <Azelphur> also for some reason my DNS stopped working
[21:13] <Azelphur> swapped from my ISPs DNS to google DNS to resolve that, though
[21:13] <shauno> curious, if you're assigning it to wan6, why does wan have a v6 address and wan6 doesn't?
[21:13] <MartijnVdS> shauno: openwrt handles interface aliases strangely
[21:14] <shauno> just curious.  it makes it a bit strange trying to compare the config to the apparent output
[21:15] <MartijnVdS> Azelphur: on the device, can you do "route  -n -A inet6"
[21:15] <MartijnVdS> Azelphur: and pastebin it
[21:15] <Azelphur> MartijnVdS: on router or PC?
[21:15] <MartijnVdS> Azelphur: on the router
[21:16] <Azelphur> MartijnVdS: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=u6b66KzV
[21:16] <diddledan__> your default ::1 route looks odd
[21:17] <MartijnVdS> everything to :: seems odd
[21:17] <diddledan__> oh wait
[21:17] <diddledan__> that's loopback
[21:17] <diddledan__> ignore me again
[21:17] <Azelphur> xD
[21:17] <diddledan__> ::/0 is default route
[21:17] <diddledan__> which you don't have one of
[21:17] <diddledan__> so your router doesn't know where to send ip6 packets that need to leave your network
[21:18] <MartijnVdS> but that's what ip6gw should be for
[21:18] <MartijnVdS> probably best to ask on an OpenWRT-specific channel
[21:19] <diddledan__> ip6gw is to a network not a single ip - it should have a :2 at the end?
[21:19] <ujjain1> I am going to move to London.
[21:19] <MartijnVdS> diddledan__: nah, his ISP gave him an entire /64 for a single PTP link between router and ISP
[21:19] <MartijnVdS> diddledan__: so I'm guessing :0 and :1 are used for that
[21:19] <MartijnVdS> but I have no idea..
[21:19] <Azelphur> MartijnVdS: righto I'll move to #openwrt, could you jump in and perhaps dumb down things they say xD
[21:20] <MartijnVdS> Azelphur: just say you got those things from your ISP <pastebin here>, and this is your config now <pastebin here>, and if they have pointers to help make it work
[21:20] <MartijnVdS> Azelphur: because routes don't seem to be getting set correctly :)
[21:20] <Azelphur> ok
[21:20] <MartijnVdS> Azelphur: can you paste the output of "ifconfig -a" as well?
[21:21] <Azelphur> MartijnVdS: http://pastebin.com/hADGLDBr
[21:22] <MartijnVdS> noything weird that I can see, but ask  openwrt :)
[21:23] <ujjain1> MartijnVdS, do you live in the UK?
[21:23] <MartijnVdS> ujjain1: no
[21:23] <ujjain1> ah ok, Holland then.
[21:24] <diddledan__> holland is the next logical location after the uk?
[21:24] <MartijnVdS> diddledan__: of course!
[21:24] <MartijnVdS> diddledan__: for everything!
[21:25] <diddledan__> MartijnVdS: except bandwidth where the roles are reversed - you've pretty much got the whole internet thing sewn up over there
[21:25] <MartijnVdS> diddledan__: yup :)
[21:25] <ujjain1> diddledan__, he has a Dutch name.
[21:26] <diddledan__> ujjain1: I ignore the j and just pronounce it Martin
[21:26] <ujjain1> well, I am going to move to London from the Netherlands and I am scared, financially etc., but I feel I am being to anxious anyway.
[21:26] <ujjain1> haha yeah,
[21:26] <ujjain1> I recently saw a map of Europe´s funniest accents in English, I laughed when I saw #1 French, I was a bit sad when I saw #2 Dutch.
[21:27] <diddledan__> they're funnier than scottish or scouse??
[21:30] <diddledan__> www.worldenergy is down - I can't get in via ssh and I don't have any other access details to get into the machine to see why mysql isn't working
[21:30] <diddledan__> .org*
[21:31] <diddledan__> :-(
[21:31] <diddledan__> I guess it's going to remain down till after the weekend
[21:58] <shauno> I will admit, the size of subnets still boggles my mind.  "I can has ipv6?"  "sure kid, have a /56" takes some getting used to
[21:58] <shauno> I have two /48's, one on each router.  that makes my head hurt
[22:03] <diddledan__> shauno: that's a LOT of address space (2x/48)
[22:03] <shauno> indeed
[22:06] <shauno> it's just funny the way it works out.  get a /48, nice and easy.  try to point one /56 to one endopint and another /56 to another .. it's easier for them to just dole out another /48
[22:07] <diddledan__> http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-25860454
[22:11] <shauno> now that's a 10-minute class you'll remember
[22:13] <shauno> I was reading about the 'rosetta' mission recently.  it still amazes me that they can target a tiny little rock in the middle of one big nothing, and hit it
[22:14] <diddledan__> more info: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/01/22/amateurs_tag_new_supernova/
[22:14] <diddledan__> shauno: and yet they aim at mars and miss so much they can't even figure out where the damned thing went
[22:15] <diddledan__> (metric+imperial)
[22:15] <shauno> hey, there's a lot of nothing out there
[22:16] <diddledan__> but doing the numbers right is kinda an obvious thing to try, though, no?
[22:16] <shauno> I've been playing a whole lot of KSP .. I still have a little dude in a tin can somewhere that I have no idea how to bring home.  one 'oopsie' is all it takes
[22:17] <diddledan__> KSP is awesome. I haven't got out of kerbin's gravity yet
[22:17] <diddledan__> I don't play games much though
[22:17] <shauno> I'm actually putting together a mars mission right now :)
[22:17] <shauno> completely overdone though.  I spend last night docking chunks together at 6-7 seconds per frame
[22:18] <diddledan__> ouch
[22:18] <diddledan__> that's SLOW
[22:18] <diddledan__> you must have had a helluva lot of components to be that slow
[22:19] <shauno> to put it midly :)
[22:21] <shauno> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/23042/Screen%20Shot%202014-01-24%20at%2008.01.51.png   (the stripey texturing is an odd glitch I keep hitting when I drive it too hard)
[22:23] <shauno> (the green section is a floating gas station, 90,000 units of fuel in orbit.  and red station is my 'tug' come to refuel.  it can tow pretty much anything I can put into orbit, to pretty much anywhere)
[22:36] <shauno> (I since discovered the coloured lights are a huge fps hit, but .. I like them :)
[22:45] <Azelphur> MartijnVdS: found a dude who's on enta+openwrt, he's gonna send me his configs in the morning \o/
[22:57] <bigcalm> Tum te tum
[23:26] <shauno> I really should look into a new router.  atm I have one that has the throughput, but no toys (it's apple), and one that has teh powerz but lame throughput
[23:37] <shauno> out of curiousity, I popped up a ssh honeypot.  the results after the first week kinda broke my stereotypes.  china's only in third place, after india & the US
[23:44] <diddledan__> shauno: proxies
[23:45] <shauno> it doesn't seem so, actually.  they all came from a single host, but out-numbered everyone else
[23:47] <shauno> interesting to trawl through the list of attempted passwords though
[23:51] <shauno> I'm actually surprised to see not a single AWS address in 5,000 attempts, since they have something of a reputation for being a cesspool
[23:55] <shauno> also interesting to see a series of attempts from nanjing for root/alpine.  that's the default root pass on the iphone
[23:58] <shauno> seems a bit tenuous, since you have to root your phone, install ssh but not change the password.  and then be behind a carrier that doesn't NAT mobile, assuming they exist
