[09:55] yes [09:56] we use oracle here, can't say i get very happy from it [09:56] my uncle is OCP (Oracle Certified Professional) [09:56] nice psyatw [09:56] i think there are good job opportunities in that area though [09:56] SAP too actually [09:56] businessobjects for example [09:56] charl_, yes, that´s what I think too [09:56] actually BO's ETL aspect is really cool [09:56] Kilos, yeah, thanks [09:56] we use that too [09:57] hmm, I should look into that later then [09:57] but you know what is also important? [09:57] BODI (business objects data integrator) [09:57] I could continue my studies now, maybe through Open Universiteit [09:57] yes! very nice [09:57] cool [09:58] that was the reason I started looking for jobs in the first place in the Netherlands but they didn´t have anything, not even manual jobs ... [09:58] the job market here is looking terrible right now [09:58] so I ended up applying here in Poland [09:58] yeah [09:59] i thought maybe it's just me but i had really bad luck while applying last year [09:59] I´ve actually told my sister to apply in Poland [09:59] i sent out like 5 applications and only received 1 offer which i didn't want [09:59] and I could help her out financially as well [09:59] yeah, terrible indeed [09:59] but fortunately i got an extension on my current contract so i'm good for another year [09:59] realistically i will not immigrate to poland any time soon but i wonder what the job market is like in germany [10:00] i hear positive things but you always hear this and that... [10:00] well, actually jobs are being moved from France and Germany to Poland as well now [10:00] in my new job I will be speaking English and German to people [10:01] well that's my thing, my english and german are not perfect but i can manage [10:01] polish on the other end... i'm not even starting on it :) [10:01] hahaha [10:01] yeah [10:01] I had an assessment of my levels of English and German [10:02] I had to speak to some teacher from the language school for 15 minutes for each language [10:02] and then the IT guy also interviewed me in German [10:02] so you couldn´t fake it until you make it [10:02] my only problem is i don't really understand the north/east germans very well, their accent throws me off [10:03] i don't have much of a problem with the bavarians though [10:03] or the swiss i find generally quite easy to follow [10:03] oh, I see [10:03] well, swiss german sounds like some twisted version of dutch [10:03] exactly [10:03] their accent is more like our accent [10:04] they also have that "g" that we have, they even step it up and pronounce a "k" like that [10:04] yeah [10:05] it's quite funny when they say "gartoffel" instead of "kartoffel" lol [10:05] i was like "sorry what?" [10:05] I didn´t have too much trouble in Hamburg or Flensburg, but I had 5 years of German in school and took my final exam in it as well [10:05] I can see how that can confuse indeed [10:05] confuse you* [10:05] lol [10:06] ok back to work... ttyl all [10:06] ttyl [11:37] afternoon [11:38] hi magespawn [11:49] hello magespawn [11:59] hi psyatw Kilos [12:22] hi Guys [12:22] hi Kilos [12:22] hi nuvolari [12:22] hi inetpro [12:22] hi Squirm [12:22] hi somaunn [12:23] Kilos: please what's new on the desk [12:24] hey somaunn [12:25] i'm looking for method to write a script for users on my network [12:25] a registry script to be applied on windows machines [12:28] um [12:28] I think you might have the wrong channel :-) [12:37] ThatGraemeGuy: hi [12:37] ThatGraemeGuy: i know it's Ubuntu/linux channel but still the most skilled guys are here and not in another place [12:43] sometimes flattery won't get you anywhere :-) [12:45] haha [12:47] somaunn, do you know the script you want to write but need a tool to write it in? [12:48] Kilos: tool i will use gedit [12:48] so what do you want to know then? [12:49] whats wrong with the win machines registries [12:53] or do you want to make something go wrong with them? [12:53] hehe [12:53] you can usually just leave them be, and something will eventually go wrong :-) [12:54] yeah. ccleaner fixes them lekker and its free [12:59] somaunn: you'll have to look at something like group policies [13:00] otherwise write the registry entries to a file and put it in a directory all have access to. They will have to run it manually. [13:18] Squirm: thanks a lot [14:43] good afternoon [14:44] hi charl [14:44] hi Kilos [14:44] did you know about the ubuntu font family http://font.ubuntu.com/ [14:44] they even have their own license [14:45] you can use them on the web too, they are all on google fonts [14:46] my pc already full of fonts [14:46] just interesting to me [14:46] i don't actually plan on using them [14:46] and all i use is that utf8 or something [14:46] that is encoding, not a font [14:47] whatever i do text only basically [14:47] to change the text size i go to fonts [14:48] i think you're talkig about font styling, i'm talking about the actual fonts themselves [14:48] i dont know what that is then [14:49] i remember i had to accept some ms fonts for something [14:49] tt something [14:50] hmm... [14:50] later all home time [14:51] toods mage [14:51] grerr [15:01] hello all [15:01] hi Private_User [15:01] Hi Kilos, sorry, I forgot about the meeting yesterday [15:04] np [15:05] btw I went to the http://ubuntu-za.org/ web page and I get errors [15:05] is it only me or is there an issue with the webpage? [15:05] lemme look [15:06] what errors ? it opens fine here [15:06] ok where can I paste the screenshot of what I get so you can view it? [15:07] sjoe i dunno where you paste them [15:07] imageshack or something [15:09] have you cleaned out your buntu pc yet? [15:10] and does dropbox do images? [15:11] nope not yet [15:11] hmm... [15:11] is that laziness or busyness [15:11] hehe [15:13] btw I have a Toshiba laptop here which was used by my sis and she spilled soup on the keyboard and now many of the keys do not work. Any ideas from the guys here what I could use to clean if I do not have alcohol or is it damage and needs to be replaced? [15:13] well a bit of both Kilos :D [15:13] whow talk about errors... that is a huge list [15:13] Private_User: that's impossible to know but using anything other than alcohol you risk damaging it further [15:13] get servisol from a radio shop [15:13] or [15:14] Private_User: you can actually get each key off to clean it, but with a laptop it's a mission [15:14] distilled water would probably work [15:14] spanjaadt lubricating switch cleaner it half the price and just as good [15:14] or something like clear meths [15:14] no water near there or alcahol [15:14] Kilos: distilled water [15:14] no [15:15] yes :/ [15:15] i really do not think the water being distilled makes it better [15:15] and how are you gonna get soup off with water [15:15] you're just going to spread the dirt around [15:15] them switch cleaners clean remove mess and protect electronic circuitry [15:16] do you want *lubricating* switch cleaner though? [15:16] distilled water isn't a good conductor, if it conducts at all. Besides, if the laptop keyboard is unplugged/completely powerless, as long as it dries it should be find [15:17] that sounds terrible to me [15:17] s/find/fine [15:17] Squirm: that is crazy because the minute it gets in touch with the mess on the keyboard it turns conductive again [15:17] Squirm: that makes no sense whatsoever [15:17] charl_: ok [15:17] but if there's no electricity to the keyboard, there is nothing to conduct [15:18] no, that's not the reason you don't want to use water [15:18] you can actually stick your desktop keyboard into a cold dishwasher. As long as it's bone dry before oyu connect it [15:18] the reason you don't want to use water is because it doesn't clean the mess up [15:18] the laptop is a Toshiba Satellite C660-1E3 [15:18] charl_: ok [15:18] and i'm sorry kilos but to use lubricating switch cleaner sounds just as bad [15:19] you don't want lubricant in under your keyboard [15:19] nope it works kiff on keys [15:19] alcohol is powerful for cleaning, doesn't conduct electricity, and disappears into the air quickly [15:19] it doesnt leave a layer of oil there [15:19] ah ok [15:19] Kilos: then how is it lubricating? [15:19] yes that's what i also want to know [15:19] lookup spanjaardt lubricating switch cleaner [15:20] Lubricates and cleans all electrical sliding [15:20] switches and contacts [15:20] of off knops on radios that get scratchy when moved also get fixed with it [15:20] so it'll go under the keys [15:21] ive cleaned everything on pcs with it [15:21] I'd only use it to clean moving parts [15:21] thats the plan to get it under the keys' [15:21] you prefer coffee there? [15:22] what about methlyted spirits? [15:22] Private_User: yes! [15:22] Private_User: rubbing alcohol, a.k.a. methylated spirits [15:23] I've used clear meths to clean circuit boards before [15:23] oh sorry it turns out there is a difference between rubbing alcohol and methylated spirits [15:24] nope spirits removed the coating over all the board then corrosion sets in [15:25] I used it to remove corrosion :P [15:25] we used to use pure alcohol to remove flux after soldering on boards in the gpo [15:26] hmmm [15:26] ok cool thanks charl_ but now I have tried that and it worked with some keys, how I did it was remove the whole keyboard from the laptop, then remove the keys that do not work I used an ear bud to swab the area around the key [15:27] I am wondering if I need to go below but not sure how to get the liquid there or should I just soak the keyboard? [15:27] ooh that's a tricky one [15:27] we can argue all day [15:27] http://www.instructables.com/id/Clean-Your-Sticky-Laptop-Keyboard/?ALLSTEPS [15:27] :P [15:28] ah there you go [15:28] rubbing alcohol ! [15:28] thanks Squirm :) [15:28] ^^ [15:28] step by step how to [15:29] methylated spirits is just a more disgustig alternative that will leave you light-headed due to the poisonous compounds in it [15:29] so try and stay away from that and get regular rubbing alcohol [15:29] you get spanjaard without the lube in too just like servisol [15:29] google servisol switch cleaner [15:30] charl_: the word poisonous can be up for debate too ;) [15:30] it says that on the wikipedia, don't look at me :P [15:30] :P [15:30] before a few mins ago i didn't even know the difference [15:31]
