The record was 300GB/s i think. [07:32] we should actually set our channel to registered nicks only as well [07:32] yeah but they normally send out a warning [07:37] do it inetpro [07:37] but [07:37] hmm... [07:38] then noobs cant get on hey? [07:38] unless they register [07:38] shame [07:38] you had to help me register remember [07:38] anyway I can't just do it [07:39] the founders will have to do it [07:39] ah [07:40] and that won't just happen without a discussion [07:40] i thought you are so old you founded the internet never mind irc [07:41] * Kilos ducks [07:44] inetpro, just an idea, is or can such an option be turned on/off at will then, that would be great [07:45] just to turn it on in bad times [07:45] Kilos: with the proper permissions yes [07:47] that is then the answer, sort it out man , dont just sit there [07:47] hehe [07:47] skuus boetie [07:48] hi Squirm [07:48] wb crash kid :-) [08:01] Someone 's having fun with #Freenode's #DNS entry..

[19:13] charl: and what OS? [19:13] magespawn: broken [19:13] inetpro: gnu/linux and it's just because i want something as simple and fast as possible [19:14] inetpro: terminator has too many default key bindings that get in the way and doesn't seem to be too stable [19:14] inetpro: konsole actually works really well but it's too bloated (with the kde integration) [19:14] inetpro: so yeah, something simple, stable and minimalist [19:14] hmm... [19:14] Indeed, very broken, i was hoping for a little more info though [19:14] does not need to have tabs or anything, preferably not in fact [19:14] * inetpro is very happy with konsole [19:15] bad ddos magespawn [19:15] yeah but i use i3 so i don't need to have all the kde stuff installed [19:15] magespawn: go to https://twitter.com/freenodestaff [19:15] talk to them [19:15] My terminator is very stable charl [19:16] what is i3? [19:16] magespawn: i sometimes have issues with libcurses applications [19:16] inetpro: http://i3wm.org/ [19:16] They say the BMW i3 is the best electric car on the planet [19:17] i want an electric motorbike, they seem to be getting popular now here [19:17] Something seems to have been affecting the company sites to [19:17] they look extremely lekker to drive [19:18] I mainly use it for ssh and a couple of other things like mtr etc [19:18] nah i live on the terminal, i have needs :) [19:19] charl: tell us what you find when you do find it [19:20] lol ok [19:20] will do [19:20] Not quite there yet but getting there fast [19:20] i will ask around and google more [19:20] I am learning to love byobu [19:20] Very useful [19:21] byobu is useful indeed, though can be irritating as well [19:21] too much activity to update the status notifications [19:23] i see it is based on tmux, that's good, i will try it [19:23] charl: or gnu screen, you choose the bindings [19:23] inetpro have you tried in on centos? [19:23] magespawn: yep [19:24] And? [19:24] same thing really [19:24] just the version is a bit older, I think [19:24] Cool beans, going to add it to the asterisk server tomorrow [19:24] but you need to add the EPEL repo [19:27] Okay, i should be abpe to get it right, i hope. [19:27] S/abpe/able [19:27] very simple indeed, just google it [19:28] though I must say I'm not yet at ease with how the extra repositories fit into the picture with centos [19:28] night all. sleep tight [19:28] night Kilos [19:28] * inetpro prefers installing only standard apps [19:28] Night Kilos [19:29] night Kilos [19:29] I take it is not standard for centos then? [19:29] nope, byobu was developed by a ubuntu guy [19:30] in fact his name is Dustin Kirkland [19:31] works for Canonical [19:32] but it's good to see that it's available in Centos [19:33] and perhaps other distros as well [19:33] I read his blog, that is where i first read about byobu, i think you recommended the blog [19:33] another one I missed in standard Centos was Munin [19:34] have a good evening all [19:34] night ChanServ [19:34] Lol [19:34] oops :) [19:34] charl is always quick [19:35] * inetpro likes the simplicity of munin (http://munin-monitoring.org/) [19:36] Looks like more things to look at tomorrow [19:36] yep, time for a nap [19:36] good night as well [19:37] Good night inetpro [19:47] Good night all [20:19] finally, able to connect using client :) === Tonberry_ is now known as Tonberry
