liamTbah, wrong window13:59
Kilosnot forward slash13:59
theblazehenliamT, Kilos ?13:59
Kiloshaha13:59
theblazehenno, use forward slash13:59
liamTjam i always get the slashes mixed up13:59
Kiloslol13:59
theblazehenliamT, how is emacs?14:00
Kiloshi theblazehen 14:00
theblazehenI'm a vim guy myself14:00
theblazehenhi Kilos 14:00
charl_same here14:00
liamTi thought seeing as emacs has been around for 30 years, it's probably worthwhile learning14:01
theblazehenliamT, ah. Tried vim?14:01
liamTi do use vim14:01
theblazehenI highly recommend it14:01
theblazehenkk14:01
charl_liamT: why move to emacs then ?14:01
charl_unhappy with vim?14:02
liamTi don't have an answer for you, thought I would try it out14:02
charl_lol ok14:02
liamTanyone use the Jedi autocompletion for Python in vim ?14:03
charl_this one? interesting no i have not tried it http://jedi.jedidjah.ch/en/latest/14:06
charl_i was looking at this one the other day http://eclim.org/14:07
liamTyes ,that one, having one hell of a time getting it to work with a python virtualenv14:12
liamTyes ,that one, having one hell of a time getting it to work with a python virtualenv14:12
liamTsorry14:12
charl_ah, i don't really use virtualenv much anymore, i just create a completely separate virtual machine14:12
charl_virtualenv is a fantastic idea but in practice it doesn't always work that well14:13
charl_but i want to try eclim in the next week14:13
charl_because right now at work we are stuck using eclipse and i really hate it14:13
charl_the other thing we use is jdeveloper but that is a disaster of a completely different kind14:13
charl_talking about oracle bloatware... insane14:13
charl_and it's about as stable as everything else java-related you can expect from oracle14:14

Private_Userafternoon all14:28
Kiloshi Private_User 14:29
Private_Userhey Kilos14:29
charl_hi Private_User 15:17
charl_lisstening to security now for the first time in over two years15:17
Private_Userhey charl_15:18
charl_it's a good show, it's just that it is so long (two hours)15:18
Private_Usersecurity?15:18
charl_http://twit.tv/sn15:18
charl_some excellent shows and steve gibson takes a huge amount of time to explain everything in exact detail15:20
charl_that's why the show is so long but it also makes the show very good15:20
charl_but i love listening to his shows, i need to make some time for it15:20
Private_Userok gotcha unfortunately I don't have uncapped internet how much of data does it use at a time?15:22
Kilos2 hours is many megs15:22
Kilosa gig maybe15:23
charl_i have no idea Private_User 15:23
charl_i guess it depends on which quality you watch it at15:23
charl_but if you have very restrictive internet i would not suggest using iptv15:23
charl_maybe try the audio-only version?15:24
Private_Userok but is the security good enough to learn all the basics that one needs to know about IT security?15:24
charl_eh it's announcements about what happened in the last week15:24
charl_it is not noob school15:24
charl_but when you listen to stuff you pick things up as you go along and you can always google what you don't understand15:24
Private_Userah thought it was like a show discussing security issues15:24
charl_yes that is exactly what it is15:25
Private_Useroh ok then sounds good15:25
charl_announcements and discussions about what is hot topics right now15:25
Private_Useronly issue I have is the capped internet15:25
charl_in belgium they have that too, they get limited to 300 or so GB per month15:25
charl_in NL we are fortunate not to have that15:26
charl_so i have no idea how much i download in a month but it probably exceeds that some months15:26
Private_Userbut 300GB per month compare to me getting 200GB for 12 months once off with 50GB to use during peak time and 150GB to use between 00:00 and 06:0015:27
charl_http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_in_Belgium#Bandwidth_and_transfer_limits15:27
charl_Download speeds in Brussels are now reaching a good level,[when?] however, the majority of Belgians have bandwidth caps in place to limit the amount of data users can transfer through their connection.15:27
charl_Typically these are between 5GB/month and 1000GB/month and show that the competition in this market has not been strong enough to drive out these practices which have vanished in other western and eastern European countries.15:27
Private_Userbut my friend has a 1MB line uncapped but its shaped15:27
charl_shaped?15:28
charl_what, round shaped or square shaped?15:28
Private_Userbut he is still able to do around 5GB downloads per day15:28
Private_UserLOL @ charl_15:28
charl_strange, i didn't realise internet has a shape15:28
Private_Usershaped as in some of the services and ports are throttled15:28
charl_wait lemme google it15:29
Private_Userso depending on the time of day and service provider certain tasks take priority over others15:29
Private_Userlike for example you may get quick speeds browsing and download emails15:29
Private_Userbut extremely sloe for downloading15:29
charl_oh i understand it now http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traffic_shaping15:29
Private_User*low15:30
charl_Traffic shaping (also known as "packet shaping") is a computer network traffic management technique which delays some or all datagrams to bring them into compliance with a desired traffic profile.[1][2] Traffic shaping is a form of rate limiting.15:30
Private_User**slow15:30
charl_Traffic shaping is used to optimize or guarantee performance, improve latency, and/or increase usable bandwidth for some kinds of packets by delaying other kinds.15:30
charl_like real-time protocols like voip is prioritised above bittorrent, for example15:30
Private_Useryep thats it but I wish it were uncapped and unshaped15:31
Private_UserI like the freedom to do what ever I want on the net15:31
Private_Userand get equal performance speed wise15:31
charl_ah net neutrality you mean15:32
charl_http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Net_neutrality15:32
charl_Net neutrality (also network neutrality or Internet neutrality) is the principle that Internet service providers and governments should treat all data on the Internet equally, not discriminating or charging differentially by user, content, site, platform, application, type of attached equipment, and modes of communication.15:32
Kiloshi not_found 15:33
not_foundhey uncle Kilos and all... man I couldn't get unto freenode yesterday at all :/15:33
Kiloswow15:34
not_foundkept timing out, not connecting at all... very frustrating15:34
Kilosi had to use irc.freenode.net because chat.freenode.net had been crashed15:35
not_foundcant get any of the sport sites to load to show me the rugby score but was able to open two different betting sites to get it >.<15:35
Private_Useryeah here for uncapped can be very expensive if you want uncapped and unshaped at really fast line15:35
not_found*irony*15:35
Private_UserWhat the Hek15:35
Kilosbulls/lions 13/715:36
charl_bah not_found talking about net neutrality ...15:36
not_foundoxymoron?15:36
not_foundgot the score uncle Kilos :) thanks15:36
charl_lol for you yes15:36
charl_not_found: i use kornbluth.freenode.net and i haven't once had any problems connecting15:36
charl_despite the ddos15:37
Private_Userhi not_found15:37
not_foundo/ Private_User 15:37
Private_Userhmm.. no issues connecting despite the ddos, could it be that he is the one issuing the attacks or maybe works for freenode15:38
not_foundwith some of the things already being put in place in US and still coming with all the secret trade agreements it would seem the net as we know it is going to fade fast... will have to see if the rest of the world respond appropriately to stop it 15:38
Private_Userlol15:38
Private_Userman today I am slow15:39
charl_Private_User: ??? kornbluth is the german server15:40
Private_Userok, no was just pulling your leg charl_15:40
charl_not_found: yes that's true, sopa and pipa got overturned though so it's not too late15:41
charl_not_found: but i am also worrying about these secret trade agreements15:41
not_foundif there is one thing that the latest US Govt. has shown with the Prism leaks it is they will do what they want and how they want... the law matters very little... look at the Netflix now having to pay addiditonal to ISP's not to get throttled... and the Warner "monopoly" being created there... not good 15:42
charl_i don't know about nexflix but that sounds bad15:43
charl_this new monopoly is indeed not good15:43
not_foundit comes down to ISP's being able to dictate what, when, how and the price...15:43
charl_in NL upc and ziggo are now also merging but they serve different regions, they already had a monopoly15:44
not_foundmasters of the universe15:44
charl_i'm hoping that we get glass fibre in my region soon so i am no longer dependent off cable15:44
charl_agreed not_found 15:45
charl_in NL netflix HD only works on certain providers which i also think is strange15:46
charl_sorry, they stopped that http://tweakers.net/nieuws/91548/netflix-rolt-hogere-bandbreedte-uit-naar-alle-gebruikers.html15:48
charl_that's good news15:48
charl_they used to have the so-called "super hd" only for providers that peer directly with netflix15:49
charl_but they stopped that and are now streaming equally to everybody15:49
Private_Userbtw wanted to know, you guys live in NL or are originally from NL15:49
Private_Userjust curious15:49
not_foundI do hope that the influence of the US doesn't break Europe's resolve cause if they start to follow the US's way we are all screwed :/15:49
* not_found lives in the desert but comes from ZA land15:50
Private_Userok cool stuff15:50
Private_Userbut have you notice the US is always quick to point fingers at China for the internet usage policies15:51
Private_User*their15:51
charl_not_found: http://euobserver.com/institutional/11588815:52
not_foundjust look at the hypocrisy of the whole Snowden fiasco and/or Kim Dotcom to see just how bad it is in the US/UK  15:53
