| mapps | hey | 00:19 |
|---|---|---|
| neuro | is for horses | 00:20 |
| neuro | as my mum would always say | 00:20 |
| mapps | lol | 00:20 |
| mapps | ;] | 00:20 |
| mapps | just finished my passport application..hoorah | 00:20 |
| mapps | hope they dont reject the photos | 00:21 |
| neuro | as long as you're not smiling | 00:21 |
| mapps | yeqa | 00:21 |
| mapps | and no hair coivering face/glasses etc | 00:21 |
| mapps | but | 00:21 |
| mapps | thing was ..it says two photos minmum of 45mm height by 35mm width - so i cut them but theyre a bit bigger..someone said they will cut them to size its just if theyre smaller they get rejected | 00:22 |
| neuro | i still either need to find my old expired passport or go through the rigmarole of reporting it lost before i can renew | 00:23 |
| neuro | and if i can't find it and have to report it lost, when i go to renew, i need to get photos signed etc :( | 00:23 |
| mapps | yea | 00:23 |
| mapps | thats why i had to | 00:23 |
| neuro | by a "respectable" person, mental | 00:24 |
| mapps | i lost mine somehow between manchester and home | 00:24 |
| mapps | ;( | 00:24 |
| neuro | mine is in the house somewhere | 00:24 |
| neuro | no bloomin' clue where it is | 00:24 |
| mapps | yea i thought the same dude | 00:25 |
| mapps | came back from holland..and hadnt been anywhere since..I NEVER take it out if i go to tesco or go out drinking..we arent a police state and im 29 | 00:25 |
| mapps | but i cant find it:( | 00:25 |
| mapps | even went to tesco to see if it had fallen out of my pocket ..went there on my way back had no food in | 00:29 |
| mapps | but no;/was going to go away March 10th-19th too but wont be able to now;( | 00:29 |
| neuro | unlucky | 00:30 |
| neuro | and you can't use the express same day / next day services with lost renewals, right? | 00:30 |
| mapps | yea thats what it said | 00:30 |
| mapps | dunno if theres any like 1 week thing ..but i figure i just cant go | 00:31 |
| neuro | you'd think by cancelling the old passport and verifying you from birth certificate, NI records, tax records, credit record, etc they could quickly verify you. | 00:31 |
| mapps | yep | 00:32 |
| mapps | agree | 00:32 |
| mapps | i work..mum and dad british..etc nothing dodgy | 00:32 |
| mapps | all my details can be checked easily | 00:32 |
| mapps | they even say with lost passports you may have to go for an interview to prove youu are who you say | 00:32 |
| mapps | thatd be a PAIN | 00:32 |
| neuro | so premium service (4 hours) isn't available for replacing lost passports | 00:33 |
| neuro | but the fast track (1 week) service is | 00:33 |
| neuro | £103 | 00:33 |
| neuro | https://www.gov.uk/get-a-passport-urgently | 00:33 |
| mapps | ooh | 00:33 |
| mapps | might do that | 00:33 |
| neuro | i take it you've done the reporting process for a lost passport already? | 00:34 |
| mapps | do i have to go to the post office or a passport office or can i still do it by post? | 00:34 |
| mapps | no--i was going to send that at the same time as my applicaiton form..says you can send the LS01 at same time | 00:34 |
| neuro | i'd do that first, but then again i'm not in a hurry ;) | 00:34 |
| neuro | probably best to call the advice line in the morning and get them to help | 00:35 |
| ali1234 | if you go to the post office they just put all the documents in an envelope and post it for you | 00:35 |
| neuro | 0300 222 000 8am-8pm | 00:35 |
| mapps | thats what i thought ali1234 | 00:35 |
| mapps | thanks | 00:35 |
| mapps | neuro, does it say whether you have to go to a passport office or anything though | 00:35 |
| neuro | i think you do | 00:35 |
| neuro | "To get your passport within 1 week, you must supply all your completed forms and supporting documents to Her Majesty’s Passport Office at the agreed appointment." | 00:36 |
| mapps | aha | 00:36 |
| neuro | you can book an appointment at a Passport Customer Service Centre from the adviceline | 00:36 |
| ali1234 | the interview is really dumb | 00:36 |
| neuro | read that page i linked to, it tells you Stuff | 00:36 |
| mapps | thanks | 00:37 |
| mapps | hey you had one ali1234 ? | 00:37 |
| ali1234 | i didn't know the answers to any of the questions they asked, still got a passport | 00:37 |
| neuro | what kind of questions do they ask you? | 00:37 |
| ali1234 | basically if you show up and you're white you get a passport | 00:37 |
| mapps | lol hat kinda qs | 00:37 |
| mapps | ye | 00:37 |
| neuro | "what's your favourite colour?" | 00:37 |
| mapps | lo | 00:37 |
| ali1234 | pretty much | 00:37 |
| neuro | "who is the manager of arsenal?" | 00:37 |
| neuro | "what is the queen's middle name?" | 00:37 |
| neuro | (answer: Royal, as in Her Royal Highness) | 00:38 |
| ali1234 | they ask you about the person who notarized your photos | 00:38 |
| ali1234 | what bank accounts you have | 00:38 |
| ali1234 | ie "what bank is your current account?" | 00:38 |
| neuro | oh jeez, that's easy | 00:38 |
| mapps | what about the person who notarised it | 00:38 |
| neuro | probably what do they do | 00:38 |
| neuro | how long have you known them | 00:39 |
| ali1234 | who is the person and how do you know them? | 00:39 |
| neuro | what's your relationship etc | 00:39 |
| ali1234 | i don't think they're interested in the answers you give, it's more of a stress test really | 00:40 |
| neuro | from the list of people of "good standing" you can get as countersignatory, I can only really see one that i could use: director/manager/personell officer of a VAT registered company | 00:40 |
| neuro | i would just talk to one of my mates who contracts a lot :) | 00:40 |
| neuro | ooh or "chairman/director of a limited company" | 00:41 |
| mapps | i used my friends wife | 00:41 |
| mapps | she's a teacher | 00:41 |
| neuro | "used" | 00:41 |
| * mapps knows noone | 00:41 | |
| mapps | heh | 00:41 |
| mapps | you know what i mean:) | 00:42 |
| neuro | although in saying that, the occupations list does say "must work in (or be retired from) a recognised profession or be a 'person of good standing in their community', eg" | 00:43 |
| neuro | and the important bit is "eg" | 00:43 |
| neuro | so i guess it's not an exhaustive list | 00:43 |
| neuro | actually, a mate of mine works in a council-run sports centre | 00:44 |
| neuro | so he's had all the usual background checks to make sure he doesn't fiddle with kids | 00:44 |
| neuro | and he's had his application approved to volunteer at the Commonwealths | 00:45 |
| neuro | so he'd probably do | 00:45 |
| neuro | what the hell ... | 00:45 |
| neuro | http://www.scotsman.com/news/environment/wind-farms-like-lockerbie-disaster-donald-trump-1-3304511 | 00:46 |
| neuro | donald trump has compared wind farm development in Scotland to the Lockerbie disaster | 00:46 |
| neuro | he's a lunatic | 00:46 |
| mapps | yea | 00:47 |
| mapps | moron | 00:47 |
| mapps | ;/ | 00:47 |
| neuro | jeez, they actually have a page on the golf club website (the one near aberdeen) detailing trump's scottish ancestry | 00:49 |
| neuro | aaaanyway ... | 00:50 |
| neuro | just had to go through a whole bunch of domain names resetting contact info :P | 01:15 |
| neuro | bloomin' annoying as the reason i got a reseller account to handle mates wanting domain names was to avoid all the admin hassle :) | 01:16 |
| mapps | heh | 01:19 |
| mapps | how many domains u got | 01:20 |
| neuro | counting ones that other people have bought from me, 32 | 01:20 |
| neuro | 12 personally | 01:21 |
| neuro | including omnombuntu.com which was a mistake really | 01:21 |
| neuro | hmm, i need to reset the default page | 01:21 |
| neuro | that's better | 01:22 |
| mapps | ;] | 01:51 |
| mapps | oke | 02:26 |
| mapps | taking my dell 1501 completely apart | 02:26 |
| mapps | to find out if it is the fan causing this horrific noise:) | 02:26 |

| daftykins | neuro: lol, no good deed. | 02:29 |
| mapps | if not..well then | 02:29 |

| daftykins | throw it out and get a new! | 02:31 |
| mapps | no!" | 02:31 |
| mapps | never | 02:31 |
| daftykins | hehe i jest | 02:32 |
| mapps | i hatr throwing stuff away:D | 02:32 |
| mapps | *hate | 02:32 |
| daftykins | mapps: rather than disassemble twice | 02:32 |
| daftykins | why not ebay a replacement cooler and strip it down with it present | 02:32 |
| mapps | ive got a new laptop samsung i5 ..this is my old dell from my uni days ..so ya its old | 02:32 |
| daftykins | that way you can replace it if it is \o/ | 02:32 |
| mapps | just runs centos atm | 02:32 |
| mapps | what else could it be if not fan | 02:32 |
| daftykins | i dunno i just turned up tbh i don't know the convo | 02:32 |
| daftykins | i guess that's all it could be! | 02:33 |
| mapps | basically my dell 1501 makes a horrific noise ..but it works fine..boots and everything works | 02:33 |
| daftykins | i only do laptop teardowns when i have enough wake-time to put them back together again :D | 02:36 |
| daftykins | if i sleep between, i forget things | 02:36 |
| mapps | i get that heh..i printed out the instructons for taking it apart | 02:43 |
| mapps | :) | 02:43 |
| mapps | hmm well didnt think this through | 02:47 |
| mapps | i cant turn it on and power it up so i cant see the fan going | 02:47 |
| mapps | doesnt look bunged up with dirt though so nothing visibly wrong | 02:47 |
| daftykins | is it a bearing based fan? | 02:54 |
| mapps | silly q but not sure what that means or how to know | 02:55 |
| daftykins | so you've got a motor spinning it, but to stop it just being plastic on plastic spinning wearing itself out, they used to be metal ball bearings | 02:57 |
| daftykins | or a cunning sleeve based system | 02:57 |
| daftykins | sometimes it just says on the little fan what it is | 02:57 |
| daftykins | but yeah this is why i like just replacing 'em 'cause yup it tends to be quite hard to run whilst on the bench | 02:57 |
| daftykins | though i've always been happy to sketchily reassemble it enough to make it work | 02:57 |
| daftykins | even if it means holding the battery up to it to run it XD | 02:58 |
| daftykins | mains is easier to attach though of course | 02:58 |
| mapps | yea | 03:00 |
| mapps | i just didnt think duh..i need to be able to press it on and there's nothing i can press on the kaptops motherboard to go on | 03:00 |
| mapps | heh | 03:00 |
| mapps | it looks just like plastic | 03:00 |
| daftykins | how do you mean press on to go on? 'cause the power button board's off? | 03:02 |
| mapps | ya | 03:02 |
| mapps | the hinge bit is off which is where the power button is | 03:03 |
| daftykins | *nod* | 03:04 |
| daftykins | you could put back the bare minimum :> | 03:05 |
| daftykins | usually that board just presses on a button on the other side | 03:05 |
| mapps | yea thats what i thought thought id be able to press it myself? | 03:05 |
| mapps | maybe just put the hinge cover back on? | 03:05 |
| daftykins | i'd imagine the only other thing in that system that's mechanical is the HDD? | 03:10 |
| daftykins | maybe reassemble all and take the HDD out, then fire it up :D | 03:11 |
| daftykins | but yeah doubt it's that really | 03:11 |
| mapps | hm | 03:14 |
| mapps | so for now to test fan | 03:14 |
| mapps | put hinge back? | 03:14 |
| mapps | hinge cover | 03:14 |
| daftykins | i really don't know the specific laptop to tell what's viable or not :D | 03:18 |
| mapps | :) | 03:23 |

| jussi | MooDoo: hahaha, read up, I mentioned earlier | 12:06 |
| DJones | jussi: Whereabouts in Liverpool? | 12:06 |
| jussi | DJones: some hotel on the docks at this point, although that may change... | 12:07 |
| MooDoo | jussi: I can't complain I'm from Nottingham, wear a flak jacket every day | 12:07 |
| jussi | DJones: dependent on whether they move the football match I was planning on attending or no... | 12:07 |
| DJones | Ah right, probably fairly close to where I am, I work up near Bootle docks | 12:08 |
| jussi | DJones: ahh ok. guess maybe a beer or so is in order then... | 12:11 |
| DJones | jussi: Possibly, have to see how things work out around then | 12:11 |
| jussi | :) | 12:11 |
| jussi | you know how we are moving to systemd.... I have a question... | 12:25 |
| jussi | When is debian/ubuntu planning then to move to rpm/yum? :D | 12:26 |
| * jussi laughs manically | 12:26 | |

| MooDoo | SuperMatt: I retired as a fedora mentor about 3 weeks ago! | 12:29 |
| SuperMatt | I'm actually going to have to learn the rhel way of doing things :( | 12:30 |
| SuperMatt | so much so, I've put centos on my laptop | 12:30 |
| * SuperMatt dies a little inside | 12:31 | |
| jussi | SuperMatt: ouch | 12:31 |
| jussi | I tired suse once... | 12:31 |
| MooDoo | rhel isn't so bad really, I use it on a daily basis | 12:31 |
| MartijnVdS | let me guess, you got tired of it ;) | 12:31 |
| MartijnVdS | MooDoo: except when you need a modern piece of software. RHEL releases less often than Debian, doesn't it? | 12:31 |
| MooDoo | MartijnVdS: depends on what you want, there are repos you can use for most stuff. | 12:32 |
| SuperMatt | if Rackspace supported ubuntu in dedicated, we could break up the teams in to rhel and ubuntu specialists | 12:32 |
| SuperMatt | I would happily volunteer for the ubuntu team | 12:32 |

| SuperMatt | we support epel and ius | 12:33 |
| SuperMatt | nothing else | 12:33 |
| SuperMatt | (and the official ones, of course) | 12:33 |
| MooDoo | MartijnVdS: well what in particular? if it's not in the repos what would you need it for? unless you're doing something specidic | 12:33 |
| MooDoo | MartijnVdS: playing devils advocate here :d | 12:33 |
| MartijnVdS | MooDoo: it was some Oracle server, maintained by external sysadmins | 12:34 |
| MooDoo | MartijnVdS: stupid computers :) | 12:34 |
| MartijnVdS | MooDoo: part of the problem was that we didn't really have a good way of communicating with them | 12:34 |
| MartijnVdS | and that every keystroke cost money | 12:34 |
| MooDoo | MartijnVdS: time to move to windoze ;) | 12:34 |

| foobarry | i have a work account for google so i can read calendars. but people are adding me on g+ how do i stop that? | 13:13 |
| foobarry | if i delete my google profile then youtube videos will be taken down | 13:14 |
| ali1234 | tell them to stop adding you? | 13:15 |
| foobarry | thats hard | 13:15 |
| foobarry | g+ says "connect to foobarry " | 13:15 |
| ali1234 | it's pretty easy | 13:15 |
| foobarry | it doesn't say which foobarry (work or not) | 13:15 |
| ali1234 | just do a google+ post telling them to stop following you. problem solved. | 13:16 |
| foobarry | deleted my profile | 13:16 |
| jussi | foobarry: most people Ive seen just put a big profile pic with "dont connect to this account, I dont use it" | 13:18 |
| MartijnVdS | you can ask Google to merge your G+ accounts | 13:18 |
| foobarry | i think i chose the right option | 13:18 |
| MartijnVdS | http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/transfer-google-plus-accounts/ | 13:18 |
| popey | i have 4 G+ accounts :() | 13:20 |
| MartijnVdS | popey: ^ that link might be helpful then :) | 13:21 |
| popey | dont think that helps. I need to have at least two of them active | 13:22 |
| popey | for hangouts on air for work and personal | 13:22 |

| foobarry | this place is the only one in the known universe where they have patch ports that look like this http://ubuntuone.com/24TASqz19ymmgQu92lWpCt | 13:23 |
| foobarry | new ones put in :S | 13:23 |
| Dave2 | popey: is that including the one with writing all over your face? | 13:23 |
| foobarry | it's easily solvable. google have a tick box that says "active" or "disable" | 13:24 |
| foobarry | diable g+ | 13:24 |
| foobarry | or "allow people to add you" | 13:24 |
| MartijnVdS | popey: sure but you could merge the other 2 into them | 13:25 |
| MartijnVdS | popey: so you end up with 2 accounts instad of 4 | 13:25 |
| popey | nope | 13:25 |

| * knightwise switched wife to linux yesterday | 13:42 | |
| knightwise | gave her 0 instructions :) | 13:42 |
| knightwise | wonder how she"'s gonna react | 13:43 |
| popey | hehe | 13:43 |
| knightwise | put elementary OS on her 24 inch iMac | 13:44 |
| jussi | elementary .... | 13:45 |
| popey | ʘ‿ಠ | 13:45 |
| knightwise | Yeah , it LOOKS like OSx , its pretty light and it runs on 12.04 | 13:45 |
| knightwise | I could have also gone for 13.10 with CairoDock | 13:46 |
| MartijnVdS | why make it OSX-like though? | 13:47 |
| jussi | it makes the jump a little easier to take, no? | 13:47 |
| MartijnVdS | Isn't Ubuntu mac-ish enough by itself? | 13:47 |
| knightwise | MartijnVdS: yeah it is. | 13:48 |
| knightwise | to be honest I had installed 13.10 and it was working ok , but I had a keyboard issue | 13:49 |
| knightwise | so i thought maybe in 12.04 it would have been ok | 13:49 |
| knightwise | so i reinstalled | 13:49 |
| knightwise | turned out keyboard issue was apples fault | 13:49 |
| brobostigon | watch tbbt, and lunch, then tackle last nights washing up. | 13:49 |
| knightwise | apple keyboards send out the wrong keycode for their @ sign | 13:49 |
| knightwise | take a logitech keyboard with an apple keyboardlayout and it works perfectly | 13:50 |
| * knightwise hates cupertino sometimes | 13:50 | |
| MartijnVdS | knightwise: then stop buying their stuff | 13:50 |
| knightwise | MartijnVdS: why make it OSX like : because that is what my wife is used to and user experience is important | 13:50 |
| knightwise | MartijnVdS: haven't bought a new mac in a while now | 13:51 |
| foobarry | knightwise: elementary \o/ | 13:51 |
| knightwise | foobarry: and its light and very efficient | 13:52 |
| foobarry | i know | 13:52 |
| brobostigon | elementary my dear watson. | 13:52 |
| foobarry | used it 10hrs a day for last year or 2 | 13:52 |
| knightwise | well ,its simpler then xfce ... | 13:52 |
| knightwise | and to be honest it feels a lot more polished because of that. | 13:53 |
| knightwise | we are talking about a user that wants to USE her machine ,and does not enjoy tinkering with it (like we do) | 13:53 |
| foobarry | requires least amount of re-configuring/tweaking, and is simple/fast, and doesn't get in my way | 13:53 |
| * brobostigon is happy with standard gnome-shell. | 13:53 | |
| foobarry | i meet few people who are | 13:53 |
| MartijnVdS | knightwise: I don't need to tinker with Unity to use it. | 13:53 |
| MartijnVdS | which seems to be the point of it.. | 13:54 |
| knightwise | brobostigon: gnome 3 ? | 13:54 |
| MooDoo | brobostigon: never got on with gnome2 | 13:54 |
| brobostigon | knightwise: yes. | 13:54 |
| MooDoo | 3 even | 13:54 |
| popey | elementary does indeed look pretty | 13:54 |
| brobostigon | MooDoo: i like the workspace implementation, | 13:54 |
| knightwise | MartijnVdS: if you have somebody who just "switched" to linux , its important to give their UI some consistency | 13:54 |
| foobarry | question: what happens if your PC runs out of ram and you have no swap? does unity crash immediately? | 13:55 |
| MartijnVdS | knightwise: Unity is very consistent! | 13:55 |
| MooDoo | brobostigon: you need to move to debian ;) | 13:55 |
| popey | foobarry: depends | 13:55 |
| popey | OOM Killer kills processes | 13:55 |
| brobostigon | MooDoo: i use debian unstable/sid with gnome3 already. | 13:55 |
| knightwise | MooDoo: I might give pure debian a go too soon | 13:55 |
| MooDoo | foobarry: i would say it goes so slow to give the appearance of it hanging coz it's swapping lots | 13:55 |
| brobostigon | MooDoo: with a splash of debian experimental. | 13:55 |
| MooDoo | brobostigon: smarty pants. | 13:55 |
| popey | MooDoo: he said with no swap | 13:55 |
| foobarry | gala in elementary crashes immediately. i got shot down on g+ for saying this is a bug | 13:56 |
| brobostigon | MooDoo: :) | 13:56 |
| knightwise | and it might sound boring .. but i'm an LTS kinda guy | 13:56 |
| popey | its not a bug | 13:56 |
| popey | its working as designed | 13:56 |
| foobarry | should handle OOM more gracefully | 13:56 |
| MooDoo | knightwise: me too | 13:56 |
| foobarry | other WMs seem to | 13:56 |
| popey | oom is out of your control | 13:56 |
| knightwise | because linux just has to WORK and i don't always need to have the cutting edge on my desktops | 13:56 |
| foobarry | not sure if OOM-killer got deployed | 13:56 |
| MooDoo | knightwise: LTS on the server and 14.04 LTS on my laptop | 13:56 |
| popey | kernel log will tell you | 13:56 |
| foobarry | i opened 1 tab too many and gala crashes, happened a few times near capacity RAM usage | 13:57 |
| foobarry | dmesg had nowt | 13:57 |
| knightwise | MooDoo: so soon ? | 13:57 |
| MooDoo | knightwise: yup, was feeling reckless :) | 13:57 |
| popey | why do you have no swap? | 13:57 |
| brobostigon | lts on one server, debian testing on the other. | 13:57 |
| foobarry | because i have 8gb ram | 13:57 |
| foobarry | and usually its not an issue | 13:58 |
| knightwise | Linux mint debian ed. on the server (rolling release) 13.10 on the laptop , all other machines : 12.04 | 13:58 |
| knightwise | now i need to find a way to incorporate her Google Calendar into her workstation, that when she gets an ics link , it gets added to her calendar | 13:58 |
| foobarry | knightwise: i suspect that maya shows evolution calendars | 14:01 |
| foobarry | and evolution handles gmail cals right? | 14:01 |
| foobarry | or just add a chrome app and drag it to desktop | 14:01 |
| knightwise | can you do that ? | 14:02 |
| knightwise | i'll try the evolution thing. | 14:02 |
| knightwise | because otherwise she wont have an app that handles ics files | 14:02 |
| MartijnVdS | knightwise: Chrome can handle ICS files I think | 14:07 |
| MartijnVdS | especially if they're sent through gmail ;) | 14:07 |
| MooDoo | popey: planning uukpc season 7 or on a break for a few months? | 14:11 |
| knightwise | MartijnVdS: thats it , she gets her mail in outlook | 14:12 |
| MartijnVdS | *shudder* | 14:12 |
| MooDoo | I don't like outlook 2013, it's really slow on my laptop | 14:13 |
| bashrc | as an email client Thunderbird is pretty good | 14:16 |
| bashrc | havn't used MS Outlook for a decade | 14:17 |
| knightwise | knightwise: sorry I meant THUNDEBIRD 8 | 14:17 |
| knightwise | Thunderbird ! | 14:17 |
| * knightwise is ashamed to say outlook | 14:17 | |
| bashrc | thunderbird is go | 14:17 |
| MartijnVdS | bashrc: no, it's C++ | 14:19 |
| bashrc | well, nearly | 14:20 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | thunderbird and the lightning calendar work with ics and google calendar (CalDAV) | 14:25 |
| MartijnVdS | thunderbird and lightning, very very frightening? | 14:36 |
| foobarry | me | 14:39 |
| foobarry | there should be are easter egg in apt-get when you type sudo apt-get install thunderbird lightning | 14:40 |
| knightwise | does lightning do a two way sync with google calendar ? | 14:40 |
| MooDoo | knightwise: depends if you're in a field holding a laptop and golf club in the air during a storm ;) | 14:41 |
| MartijnVdS | knightwise: https://support.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/kb/using-lightning-google-calendar | 14:41 |
| knightwise | an easteregg like " sudo apt-get lightning" and you get an echo "veryvery frightening ?" | 14:41 |
| knightwise | MartijnVdS: thanx :) | 14:42 |
| knightwise | gonna have a go at it tonight. | 14:42 |
| knightwise | so far : wife been working on machine all day. no complaints. | 14:42 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | That's rather old isn't MartijnVdS? | 14:43 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | I just use CalDav to Google. | 14:43 |
| MartijnVdS | TheOpenSourcerer: first hit on google ;) | 14:43 |
| knightwise | but i think she can manage , considerign THIS is her grandmother https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuForGrandma | 14:43 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Works fine both ways | 14:43 |
| MartijnVdS | TheOpenSourcerer: Google is deprecating CalDav | 14:43 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | No it isn't/ | 14:44 |
| MartijnVdS | ah wait | 14:44 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | They decided against it | 14:44 |
| MartijnVdS | they switched URLs, that's it | 14:44 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Yep. | 14:44 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | They did announce a while ago they were going to drop it. But everyone shouted and they rescinded their decision surprisingly. | 14:45 |

| xalyy | Hey, im back! :P | 19:26 |
| xalyy | Does anyone have any experience of vps host? | 19:27 |
| xalyy | What you think guys SSD or HDD is better for hosting purpose? | 19:27 |
| directhex | xalyy, both have their strong points | 19:29 |
| directhex | xalyy, but i wouldn't consider a VPS host using consumer-grade drives as competent, and probably wouldn't pay for enterprise SSDs for web/mail | 19:29 |
| xalyy | And what you think which is better for: 10 VPS under a dedicated server, a 2x 128GB SSD or 1TB HDD? | 19:30 |
| directhex | 2x128 configured how, and which devices exactly? | 19:30 |
| xalyy | What you mean? | 19:31 |
| directhex | not all SSDs are equal | 19:31 |
| xalyy | Well yeah | 19:31 |
| directhex | and how would you have those SSDs set up? e.g. RAID? | 19:31 |
| xalyy | I not know the manufactuer, the dedicated hosting does not wrote on his website :D | 19:31 |
| xalyy | I have to ask this | 19:31 |
| xalyy | RAID? | 19:32 |
| xalyy | Its not a security thing? | 19:32 |
| directhex | jesus really? pretty sure they teach about raid in basic computing qualifications in high school | 19:33 |
| xalyy | Ohh data redundancy and performance improvement | 19:33 |
| xalyy | Got it :D | 19:33 |
| xalyy | So both SSD and HDD need at least RAID 1? | 19:34 |
| directhex | IMHO yes | 19:34 |
| directhex | drives fail. | 19:34 |
| xalyy | How can I check the RAID of my current dedicated? | 19:34 |
| directhex | question is how your customers will feel if a drive fails and you have no way to get them going again | 19:34 |
| xalyy | Because having problems with the VPS's, I mean I started installing 2-3 VPS at a time and it slowwssss | 19:34 |
| directhex | um... lspci might indicate whether there's a hardware raid controller installed | 19:34 |
| xalyy | Okay | 19:35 |
| xalyy | Ty :D | 19:35 |
| xalyy | And | 19:35 |
| directhex | e.g. | 19:35 |
| directhex | root@handi:~# lspci | grep RAID | 19:35 |
| directhex | 04:00.0 RAID bus controller: 3ware Inc 9650SE SATA-II RAID PCIe (rev 01) | 19:35 |
| xalyy | But wait | 19:36 |
| xalyy | The lag is because of the HDD is not enough powerful? | 19:36 |
| xalyy | Or does not have raid? | 19:36 |
| directhex | i don't have enough data to answer you. | 19:36 |
| xalyy | What you need? :D | 19:36 |
| directhex | lspci | grep RAID | 19:37 |
| xalyy | Nothing | 19:37 |
| directhex | hm | 19:38 |
| directhex | pvdisplay? | 19:38 |
| ali1234 | directhex: have you ever used cgroups in anger? | 19:39 |
| xalyy | http://gyazo.com/42ca34b64c7f2e86306b08fe8c4c9dab.png | 19:39 |
| directhex | ali1234, no... i've used hardware cpusets on sgi altix though! | 19:39 |
| ali1234 | it seems like it has the ability to limit the amount of physical memory used by a group | 19:39 |
| xalyy | I think its a toshiba 1tb HDD | 19:39 |
| directhex | xalyy, that's a single drive, then. no redundancy, no failure recovery | 19:39 |
| xalyy | So? | 19:40 |
| directhex | xalyy, well, if the drive goes wrong then your server and every VPS is gone forever, unless you have a decent backup solution in place | 19:41 |
| directhex | xalyy, and one spinning disk isn't very fast, for I/O intensive stuff | 19:41 |
| xalyy | Wait but this disk runs atleast 7200 RPM nah? | 19:41 |
| directhex | xalyy, look at it this way, if you have 10 VPS then you have 1/10 of that disk available per VPS, if they're all busy | 19:42 |
| xalyy | Ohh | 19:42 |
| xalyy | And what is the solution? :S | 19:42 |
| xalyy | RAID? | 19:43 |
| directhex | RAID won't speed up writes. it'll speed up reads, though | 19:49 |
| xalyy | So | 19:50 |
| xalyy | What do I have to do, to get all good :D | 19:50 |
| xalyy | I mean hosting 10 VPS what is the requirements? | 19:51 |
| directhex | well, it all depends on your expectations | 19:51 |
| directhex | what you have right now is a single bit of spinning rust. it's fine as long as you don't have any IO-heavy requirements - fine for email, fine for web hosting, fine for IRC | 19:52 |
| xalyy | Well I said I have now 3 running and if I start 2 more install then thoose two installs really slowly | 19:52 |
| directhex | crap for compiling software | 19:52 |
| directhex | well, installing is pretty IO heavy | 19:52 |
| directhex | try installing/running iotop on the host. it's a console-based disk usage monitor | 19:53 |
| xalyy | apt-get install iotop? :D | 19:54 |
| directhex | actually, let's try iostat | 19:55 |
| directhex | run "iostat 5" on the host. every 5 seconds it'll refresh a view of disk activity on all your disks | 19:55 |
| directhex | the first column is disk name, then "tps" is "transactions per second" (i.e. individual IO operations), which will be max 100 on one 7200rpm disk | 19:55 |
| shauno | if I knew what was good for me I'd keep quiet, but I gotta point out that if you're io-bound installing 2 or 3 instances, you may not have happy customers at 10+ instances | 19:56 |
| xalyy | Wait | 19:56 |
| xalyy | How do I run that? | 19:56 |
| directhex | "iostat 5" | 19:56 |
| xalyy | -bash: iostat: command not found | 19:57 |
| directhex | sysstat package. | 19:58 |
| xalyy | Exactly what does this do? | 19:59 |
| xalyy | the iOSstat | 19:59 |
| directhex | it just extracts a snapshot of current & historic IO usage from the kernel, in an easy to read form | 20:00 |
| xalyy | Okay, sorry for the silly questions, I am doing this the first time I not counted about HDD problems when I opened my host, I wanted to provide cheap and reliable VPS for poor people :S | 20:02 |
| xalyy | http://gyazo.com/2adddf3151998f4ff57848756faca877.png | 20:03 |
| xalyy | What is the diagnosis? | 20:03 |
| directhex | yeah, so the tps column, like i said, is the important one | 20:06 |
| directhex | and your limit is about 100, give or take, with your arrangement | 20:06 |
| directhex | each of the dm-X entries is the virtual disk from a VPS | 20:07 |
| directhex | so you can see that post-install, the VPSes are quiet. but during install, one VPS can max out the disk, making the server slow for everyone else | 20:07 |
| xalyy | But wait | 20:08 |
| xalyy | Its now 63% load? | 20:08 |
| xalyy | And 100% is max? | 20:08 |
| directhex | although note it says 82% idle as well | 20:08 |
| directhex | balancing IO is complicated | 20:09 |
| xalyy | Is it possible that I made wrong the VPS's? | 20:09 |
| directhex | keep that window open whilst installing another VPS. | 20:09 |
| xalyy | I used IDE | 20:09 |
| xalyy | I mean | 20:09 |
| xalyy | if I use IDE and my host HDD is SATA | 20:09 |
| xalyy | then its bad? | 20:09 |
| directhex | you didn't use IDE. | 20:11 |
| directhex | well | 20:11 |
| directhex | you may have done on the virtual disks, but that's largely irrelevant | 20:11 |
| directhex | you could probably have gotten some speed improvement by using virtio for the virtual disk, though | 20:11 |
| xalyy | By the way I am using Proxmox for VE | 20:11 |
| xalyy | Ok | 20:12 |
| xalyy | And what you say windows server 2012 or 2008 is better for 1 Core 2GB ram VPS's? | 20:12 |
| xalyy | Not really sure you are a windows master :D | 20:12 |
| directhex | i know nothing about windows server. | 20:17 |
| shauno | eh, either comes with 'core' flavours. but windows licences are going to eat into your 'cheap' | 20:17 |
| directhex | i think physically you will still be constrained by trying to chop one server into eleven servers & expecting no bottlenecks | 20:17 |
| xalyy | Ok | 20:18 |
| xalyy | And what about IP's | 20:18 |
| xalyy | How can I assign unique IP for every VPS? | 20:18 |
| xalyy | Because I got the same IP for every VPS | 20:19 |
| xalyy | The hosts ip | 20:19 |
| shauno | your provider is going to have to give you a bunch of IPs. at the moment they're all sharing one, and one's all you have to share | 20:19 |
| xalyy | Umm, IPv6 is good? | 20:20 |
| directhex | IPv6 is fine, but most people can't talk IPv6 yet | 20:20 |
| shauno | it's a plus, but the market for people that'll take v6 alone is very, very small | 20:21 |
| xalyy | So its good or not :D | 20:21 |
| directhex | e.g. no major UK ISP is setting up IPv6-capable equipment for its customers, so anyone wanting to access a 6-only server needs to configure their computer to do it | 20:21 |
| xalyy | My dedicated not have enabled DHCP so probably better than ipv4? | 20:21 |
| shauno | xalyy, do you have v6 at home? | 20:21 |
| xalyy | ipv4 | 20:22 |
| shauno | so if you were one of your own customers, you wouldn't be able to reach a v6-only vps either? | 20:22 |
| xalyy | Ohh :D | 20:22 |
| xalyy | Ok | 20:22 |
| directhex | you can't talk to a v6-only server from a v4-only client, unless you reconfigure your computer to use a tunnel | 20:22 |
| xalyy | Just asking because 11 IPv4 is 5.5$ cost | 20:22 |
| directhex | also, try http://test-ipv6.com/ in a browser | 20:22 |
| xalyy | And 60 ipv6 is the same price | 20:22 |
| xalyy | Ok I go with ipv4 | 20:23 |
| xalyy | But how to set up the IP's when I got it? | 20:23 |
| xalyy | Exactly what I have to do? | 20:23 |
| xalyy | I have to do something in proxmox? | 20:23 |
| directhex | i have no idea about proxmox | 20:24 |
| xalyy | Ok | 20:24 |
| xalyy | Disk image format? Which is the fastest? QEMU, Vmware or RAW DISK | 20:25 |
| xalyy | http://gyazo.com/542f24441f4470648fcfc6c0a5723e6b.png | 20:25 |
| directhex | there's not much in it. | 20:26 |
| directhex | i use raw, personally | 20:26 |
| xalyy | But no differencies between them? | 20:27 |
| xalyy | So its not matter | 20:27 |
| neuro | ok, it is officially cold | 20:29 |
| neuro | i am not liking col | 20:30 |
| neuro | d | 20:30 |
| neuro | i'm still trying to figure out why tesco send me two copies of an order confirmation | 20:31 |
| shauno | this isn't cold :p | 20:32 |
| neuro | tell that to my hands | 20:32 |
| shauno | hands: this ain't cold | 20:32 |
| neuro | they don't believe you | 20:32 |
| ali1234 | how do i configure my server for ipv6? | 20:33 |
| xalyy | Ok | 20:33 |
| neuro | with care :) | 20:33 |
| shauno | same way as v6, really. a smattering of knowledge of how your provider is providing it | 20:34 |
| shauno | er, as v4, rather | 20:34 |
| ali1234 | i have an inet6 addr but it says Scope:Link | 20:34 |
| ali1234 | the provider claims to support ipv6 | 20:34 |
| ali1234 | the server is running ubuntu precise | 20:34 |
| neuro | you still need the gateway, subnet, etc | 20:35 |
| shauno | yeah, you'll have an fe80..something address just for having it available in the kernel | 20:35 |
| ali1234 | so, where do i even start? | 20:35 |
| MartijnVdS | MooDoo: didn't you just buy an ASUS router? http://arstechnica.com/security/2014/02/dear-asus-router-user-youve-been-pwned-thanks-to-easily-exploited-flaw/ | 20:35 |
| * neuro still finds it amusing to set a IP address to ..::dead:beef | 20:35 | |
| MartijnVdS | neuro: ::babe:face | 20:36 |
| neuro | ali1234: getting the details your le hosting types would be a good start | 20:36 |
| shauno | I find it amusing to have proper reverse-dns for everything in the house | 20:36 |
| neuro | shauno: pain in the bum though | 20:36 |
| neuro | f.3.a.5.1.6.a.5.6.a.b.1.5.9.6.c.1.6.d.1.5.aaaaargh | 20:37 |
| shauno | ipv6calc --out revnibbles.arpa 2001:db8::1 | 20:37 |
| neuro | what the deuce ... | 20:38 |
| MartijnVdS | ipv6calc++ | 20:38 |
| shauno | if you're doing it by hand, you should have a sadface | 20:38 |
| neuro | i do have a sadface | 20:39 |
| xalyy | Whats this? http://gyazo.com/b0b2690984e3a9085b75bfa5f4332449.png | 20:40 |
| neuro | omg that's awesome | 20:40 |
| neuro | that's stupidly awesome | 20:40 |
| shauno | +1 for learning, -10 for repetition | 20:40 |
| neuro | WHY HAVE I BEEN DOING THIS BY HAND | 20:40 |
| MartijnVdS | xalyy: that's a dropdown box where you can select the RAID controller the virtual machine sees | 20:40 |
| MartijnVdS | xalyy: keep it on virtio unless you know what you're doing (still not reading the docs, are you?) | 20:40 |
| neuro | xalyy: it's a PNG image file, a newer image format which is better than GIF | 20:41 |
| xalyy | :DD | 20:41 |
| xalyy | Docs docs. But it not helps me to decide which is better for host :S or am I wrong Marin? | 20:41 |
| xalyy | Martin* | 20:41 |
| MartijnVdS | xalyy: Sure it does. | 20:41 |
| MartijnVdS | xalyy: Docs describe how a piece of software works. If you can't understand them, it might not be for you ;) | 20:41 |
| neuro | hehe | 20:42 |
| MartijnVdS | Or, you might need to learn a bit about the underlying concepts first :) | 20:42 |
| neuro | what are we doing, anyway? | 20:42 |
| xalyy | Could you help me to choose? Its night :D | 20:42 |
| * neuro reads back | 20:42 | |
| MartijnVdS | neuro: read back several days then ;) | 20:43 |
| neuro | vps config? | 20:43 |
| MartijnVdS | neuro: I think so | 20:43 |
| neuro | when i buy from joe random vm provider, i usually just stick with their default configs | 20:43 |
| shauno | commercial-vps-provider through the eyes of someone who has ... good intentions | 20:43 |
| xalyy | So Im on the Hard disk phrase VIRTIO format QEMU Cache Default | 20:44 |
| neuro | i must admit, i'm loving the crap out of ec2 at the moment | 20:44 |
| xalyy | Good? | 20:44 |
| shauno | I don't really have scalable loads, so ec2 isn't cost-effective | 20:45 |
| neuro | the new python based aws tools are epic | 20:45 |
| neuro | way way better (and faster) than the old java ones | 20:45 |
| xalyy | http://gyazo.com/e1a61318be3231e0c6c5af0276e51379.png anything I have to change here? | 20:45 |
| neuro | wait, we're configuring a windows vm? | 20:45 |
| neuro | in an ubuntu channel? | 20:45 |
| neuro | okaaaaay ... | 20:45 |
| xalyy | Yess :D! | 20:45 |
| shauno | a windows guest in a .. something else host | 20:46 |
| neuro | eeshk | 20:46 |
| neuro | and i get shouted at for talking about macs in here ... ;) | 20:46 |
| xalyy | Why, the host is still ubuntu, or not? :P | 20:46 |
| MartijnVdS | xalyy: isn't there an IRC channel for that VM management tool you're using? | 20:47 |
| neuro | i have to manage a few win2k3/win2k8 hosts in ec2 for work | 20:47 |
| xalyy | Yes there is but everybody sleeping all the day | 20:47 |
| neuro | it's a right pain | 20:47 |
| neuro | hate it hate it hate it | 20:47 |
| MartijnVdS | with people who, you know, actually know how it works? | 20:47 |
| MartijnVdS | We're guessing just as much as you are | 20:47 |
| xalyy | I keep saying all day Hello HELLO IS Somebudy hereeeee? And no response | 20:47 |
| MartijnVdS | xalyy: did you read the "smart questions" link earlier today? | 20:47 |
| MartijnVdS | xalyy: because that might work on them | 20:47 |
| ali1234 | probably not though | 20:48 |
| neuro | smart questions don't work on me | 20:48 |
| ali1234 | most irc channels are dead | 20:48 |
| neuro | because i'm not smart | 20:48 |
| neuro | duh | 20:48 |
| neuro | IRC IS TEH DEDZOR?! | 20:48 |
| MartijnVdS | Neuro Gump? | 20:48 |
| ali1234 | there's usually about one active person for every 20-30 idlers | 20:48 |
| neuro | MartijnVdS: VMs are like a box of chocolates | 20:48 |
| neuro | if you run them too hard, they'll melt | 20:48 |
| MartijnVdS | Run Neuro, Run! | 20:48 |
| xalyy | So | 20:48 |
| neuro | *cue inspiring Alan Silvestri score* | 20:49 |
| ali1234 | i have no idea why so many people feel the need to idle on channels and then never ever speak | 20:49 |
| xalyy | Can we get back to business guys? :) | 20:49 |
| neuro | ali1234: because it's good netiquette | 20:49 |
| MartijnVdS | *cue video of Neuro running* | 20:49 |
| neuro | lurk before engaging | 20:49 |
| ali1234 | no | 20:49 |
| neuro | MartijnVdS: that would be an AWFUL video | 20:49 |
| neuro | and very short too | 20:49 |
| ali1234 | that's usenet | 20:49 |
| MartijnVdS | neuro: sure but if the channel is *always* silent, lurking doesn't help | 20:49 |
| neuro | like 15 seconds of running, 5 minutes of wheezing and coughing, and 2 minutes of marlboro smoking | 20:49 |
| MartijnVdS | it's the same here though | 20:49 |
| ali1234 | on irc you practically have to troll people to even get a "hello" | 20:49 |
| xalyy | But why is that a problem if I set up a windows vm on ubuntu? :( | 20:50 |
| neuro | i'm not saying it's a problem | 20:50 |
| MartijnVdS | xalyy: there is no problem (make sure you have all the licenses), but we don't have much (if any) experience | 20:50 |
| neuro | but i'm not sure ... yeah, that | 20:50 |
| xalyy | You mean no hosting experience? | 20:50 |
| neuro | how many people in a channel of Ubuntu users do you really expect to have solid experience with win2k8 | 20:51 |
| neuro | i'm not saying it's impossible | 20:51 |
| neuro | but it's unlikely | 20:51 |
| xalyy | But I tried to search something on the internet like How to start a VPS business or something but not found exact guides or tutorials... | 20:51 |
| MartijnVdS | xalyy: I have plenty of hosting experience, just not of Windows VMs, and also, it will take so long to explain that I'd rather not bother on IRC | 20:52 |
| MartijnVdS | xalyy: I learned it from the docs + trying | 20:52 |
| shauno | or people with windows-server experience that aren't so traumatized by it that they're willing to do it for kicks & giggles at home/spare time too | 20:52 |
| neuro | step 1 in starting a VPS business: learn how to build and manage vps hosts | 20:52 |
| neuro | gotta walk before you can run | 20:52 |
| neuro | RUN, NEURO, RUN ... *shakes fist at MartijnVdS* | 20:52 |
| MartijnVdS | haha :) | 20:52 |
| xalyy | Okay | 20:53 |
| shauno | isn't it "skate silly fast" for Martijn this week? or is he the only dutchie left that didn't take a medal for it =x | 20:53 |
| neuro | you should look into scaleable ways to create and start VMs on a host | 20:53 |
| MartijnVdS | shauno: Several more to come ;) | 20:53 |
| neuro | i'm pretty sure a GUI or web interface is not scaleable for a business | 20:53 |
| MartijnVdS | shauno: tomorrow & wednesday | 20:53 |
| xalyy | You know what? I set up a time counter and count how many times does need 1 VPS to install with VIRTIO and VIRTIO SCSI then with SATA and VIRTIO SCSI then with SATA AND DEFAULT SCSI | 20:54 |
| xalyy | Then with two VPS with same | 20:54 |
| MartijnVdS | xalyy: be sure to install the right virtio drivers in windows | 20:54 |
| shauno | oh I don't doubt it. I accidentally caught some on tv yesterday. the ladies' 1500m. russia managed to take 5th place, because there was only 4 dutchies | 20:54 |
| MartijnVdS | shauno: that race was great :) | 20:54 |
| ali1234 | i've been watching the curling | 20:54 |
| ali1234 | USA really sucks at curling, lol | 20:55 |
| neuro | ha yeah | 20:55 |
| MartijnVdS | ali1234: UK was half/half as well | 20:55 |
| MartijnVdS | against Norway | 20:55 |
| shauno | I haven't been paying a whole lot of attention to most of it, but I was in a hotel the last few days, and the olympics is just as watchable in any language | 20:55 |
| neuro | curling = teh awesome | 20:55 |
| neuro | also, eve muirhead | 20:55 |
| ali1234 | over all we are doing okay | 20:56 |
| neuro | i forgot to watch the snowboard cross tho | 20:56 |
| dutchie | only 4 whats | 20:59 |
| shauno | lol, sorry, forgot about you | 21:00 |
| dutchie | :'( | 21:00 |
| xalyy | Exactly | 21:01 |
| xalyy | What TPS means? | 21:01 |
| MartijnVdS | xalyy: In which context? | 21:02 |
| neuro | new cover sheet? | 21:02 |
| xalyy | iOSstat 5 | 21:02 |
| neuro | did you get the memo? | 21:02 |
| xalyy | directhex said | 21:02 |
| xalyy | this is the command to check the HDD | 21:02 |
| neuro | http://lmgtfy.com/?q=iostat+tps | 21:03 |
| xalyy | Easy :P | 21:03 |
| MartijnVdS | xalyy: "man iostat" will also tell you all about it | 21:04 |
| xalyy | Ty mah man | 21:05 |

| ali1234 | i like how they are defining the design | 21:05 |
| ali1234 | but there's a problem with the way they've defined transparency | 21:05 |
| neuro | that's purty | 21:05 |
| ali1234 | namely they've used multiply transparency, when nearly all toolkits use additive transparency | 21:06 |
| ali1234 | multiply looks better of course, but is far more computationally expensive | 21:06 |
| neuro | but cpu is teh cheap :) | 21:06 |
| ali1234 | it's done on the GPU... | 21:06 |
| neuro | but gpu is teh cheap :D | 21:07 |
| ali1234 | i don't think GPUs can do this type of transparency in hardware without a custom shader | 21:07 |
| neuro | i admit though that i think kde is a hot mess | 21:07 |
| neuro | so they'd need to knock something out that's pretty amazing to impress me | 21:07 |
| ali1234 | it is at the moment definitely | 21:07 |
| ali1234 | yeah | 21:07 |
| neuro | then again, no UNIX DE really impresses me other than OS X | 21:08 |
| neuro | which is a shame | 21:08 |
| MartijnVdS | neuro: Now you're just hating on twm | 21:08 |
| neuro | true, i am | 21:08 |
| neuro | hey, i grew up with openlook :) | 21:08 |
| ali1234 | i'd settle for something that doesn't try too hard | 21:08 |
| MartijnVdS | neuro: ah, so it's a deep-rooted hatred :) | 21:09 |
| MooDoo | evening all | 21:09 |
| neuro | not hatred :) | 21:09 |
| neuro | evenin | 21:09 |
| ali1234 | there is nothing worse than software that doesn't know it's own strengths and weaknesses | 21:09 |
| MartijnVdS | neuro: disappointment? | 21:09 |
| MartijnVdS | MooDoo: did you see that link I sent you earlier? | 21:09 |
| neuro | MartijnVdS: wistful yearning | 21:09 |
| ali1234 | KDE is probably the worst at doing that too | 21:09 |
| neuro | agreed | 21:10 |
| MooDoo | MartijnVdS: not sure what was it about? | 21:10 |
| MartijnVdS | MooDoo: http://arstechnica.com/security/2014/02/dear-asus-router-user-youve-been-pwned-thanks-to-easily-exploited-flaw/ | 21:10 |
| MartijnVdS | MooDoo: ASUS routers | 21:10 |
| MooDoo | MartijnVdS: oh brilliant lol | 21:10 |
| * neuro hugs his pfsense router running in an ESXi VM | 21:10 | |
| * MartijnVdS hugs his TP-Link TL-WDR4300 with OpenWRT ;) | 21:11 | |
| MooDoo | just checking it out | 21:11 |
| neuro | wow, my stomach just made the most unbelievable grumbly noise at me | 21:13 |
| neuro | i haven't eaten today | 21:13 |
| neuro | i really should | 21:13 |
| MooDoo | MartijnVdS: ah new firmware upgrade | 21:13 |
| MartijnVdS | Synology owners: also upgrade *now* (I got an email from them today saying that older firmwares have remotely exploitable holes) | 21:14 |
| shauno | neuro: didn't you come with a manual? I'm pretty sure this is mentioned in the maintenance cycle | 21:15 |
| neuro | tch, who reads the manual?! | 21:15 |
| MartijnVdS | \o | 21:16 |
| neuro | apart from you | 21:16 |
| MartijnVdS | but only after it breaks | 21:16 |
| shauno | I read the manual if I buy something in the real world. it makes the ride home with a new toy you can't use yet a little more interesting | 21:16 |
| MartijnVdS | that doesn't work on the *drive* home though | 21:17 |
| neuro | when i bought my new telly, i made sure to read the wee leaflet thingy to make sure i put the stand on correctly | 21:17 |
| neuro | but after that, random button pushing ahoy! | 21:17 |
| shauno | drive home? I'm european :p | 21:17 |
| MartijnVdS | neuro: http://imgur.com/LMPFfcs | 21:18 |
| neuro | DEXTER \o/ | 21:18 |
| neuro | DEE DEE NOOOOOOOOO! | 21:18 |
| MartijnVdS | shauno: so am I.. but they've been steadily dropping the number of bus lines in my town | 21:18 |
| MooDoo | MartijnVdS: I'm ok | 21:19 |
| neuro | good, because buses SUCK | 21:19 |
| MartijnVdS | MooDoo: \o/ | 21:19 |
| shauno | I've been having this problem with sundays. thanks to my work schedule, I never know what day it is until I realise it's been 40 minutes and still no bus | 21:19 |
| MartijnVdS | neuro: Buses are on time more often than trains | 21:20 |
| neuro | trains suck even more! | 21:20 |
| neuro | shauno: hehe | 21:20 |
| MartijnVdS | neuro: buses are way cheaper than parking | 21:20 |
| MooDoo | MartijnVdS: it only affected routers of people who attached usb drives to it and had left the FTP option enabled as it was at default. | 21:20 |
| shauno | I gotta say, .cz/.sk, public transport is amazing | 21:20 |
| neuro | you need one of those bus app thingies | 21:20 |
| MartijnVdS | (in Amsterdam) | 21:20 |
| neuro | MartijnVdS: depends where you park | 21:20 |
| neuro | ah right | 21:20 |
| neuro | yeah amsterdam does suck for cars | 21:20 |
| MartijnVdS | MooDoo: Ah, well.. it's good to make sure you're not vulnerable ;) | 21:21 |
| MooDoo | MartijnVdS: http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/526942 | 21:21 |
| neuro | right, i needs teh fods | 21:21 |
| shauno | bratislava to budapest by train, e17.50 return | 21:21 |
| neuro | teh noms have got me | 21:21 |
| MooDoo | MartijnVdS: makes me think now though lol | 21:21 |
| neuro | HOW MUCH | 21:21 |
| MartijnVdS | €17,50. About £17,50 in your moeny | 21:21 |
| MartijnVdS | money* | 21:22 |
| * neuro larts MartijnVdS | 21:22 | |
| shauno | I think it's about 15gbp atm | 21:22 |
| MartijnVdS | shauno: sure. but you pay a conversion fee ;) | 21:22 |
| neuro | i was expressing surprise at the cheapness, not requesting an exchange rate calculation :) | 21:22 |
| neuro | costs about 12 quid to get from here to edinburgh | 21:22 |
| shauno | bratislava to vienna was about 15eur too, but that got my a day-pass on vienna's public transport too | 21:22 |
| neuro | so glad i work from home | 21:23 |
| neuro | anyway | 21:23 |
| neuro | noms | 21:23 |
| neuro | tootles | 21:23 |
| shauno | although I did find funny, the same trip is much more expensive the other way around. exactly the same train costs much more if you buy in vienna | 21:23 |
| MartijnVdS | shauno: same reason why shipping stuff to china is expensive, but getting stuff from china costs next to nothing (except for customs/vat/etc.) | 21:24 |
| shauno | but even the bus/tram/trolly are decent. I really like the thing of buying the ticket at the stop instead of from the driver. they're quite militant about stopping for 15-20 seconds and then leaving | 21:25 |
| MartijnVdS | sounds like Frankfurt | 21:30 |
| MooDoo | MartijnVdS: OMG the amount of people that have the problem with the asus, you can just FTP to their drives and see all their contents :S | 21:38 |
| MooDoo | thanks to MartijnVdS any one else use Asus routers here? | 21:43 |
| MooDoo | MartijnVdS: thanks - http://www.paulmellors.net/asus-routers/ | 21:45 |
| diddledan | MooDoo: <ipaddress> is not html-escaped :-) | 21:49 |
| diddledan | it reads: "type ftp:// and see if you can see your files" | 21:50 |
| MooDoo | diddledan: I just mean just replace that with your IP :p | 21:52 |
| MooDoo | it's still amazing | 21:53 |
| diddledan | MooDoo: yeah but it's invalid html | 21:53 |
| diddledan | MooDoo: <ipaddress> is treated as a tag and therefore not shown | 21:53 |
| MooDoo | ah get you | 21:53 |
| shauno | did I just see sensible input from diddledan? o_O | 21:54 |
| MooDoo | diddledan: ok thanks | 21:55 |
| MooDoo | diddledan: changed, but wow, lots of content out there on unpatched routers :S | 21:55 |
