| SCR1845-6357A | Pleasant night to all southafricans, regardless their operating system | 00:42 |
|---|---|---|
| SCR1845-6357A | I have read about the existence of a weird distro called "apartheid linux" | 00:43 |
| SCR1845-6357A | based on ubuntu, and seemingly identical in all senses except some far-right decoration... | 00:44 |
| SCR1845-6357A | never tried it myself, though | 00:45 |
| Private_User | good night SCR1845-6357A | 00:52 |
| SCR1845-6357A | goodnight to you too, Private_User | 01:10 |

| Kilos | oh sorry afternoon | 10:37 |

| not_found | o/ | 11:11 |
| Golynx | hi Kilos | 11:13 |
| Golynx | hi charl_ | 11:13 |
| Golynx | hi theblazehen | 11:13 |
| Golynx | hi not_found | 11:13 |
| Golynx | hi Maaz | 11:13 |
| theblazehen | hi Golynx | 11:13 |
| * Golynx agrees with Telkom CEO Sipho Maseko "MTN, Vodacom is standing in the way of SA's future" http://techcentral.co.za/mtn-vodacom-standing-in-way-of-sas-future/46705/ | 11:22 | |
| not_found | and Telkom isn't?! >.< | 11:22 |
| theblazehen | not_found, lol | 11:23 |
| Kilos | telkom is much cheaper not_found | 11:24 |
| Golynx | not_found: that maybe true in the fixed line arena, but its about mobile that reaches many more people in the country | 11:24 |
| not_found | at least there is the possibility for competition in the mobile area... but it is still ironical for Telkom to make statements like that.. | 11:25 |
| Golynx | not_found: Telkom wants payback of its R50 billion it had to subsidise MTN and Vodacom since 1994. | 11:38 |
| Kilos | yay maybe theyll drop 8ta data even more | 11:39 |
| Golynx | Kilos that will happen , how soon ? depends on the court case of MTN and Vodacom has against Icasa | 11:43 |
| Kilos | they big money okes so it can hang in courts for ages | 11:44 |
| Golynx | ya true | 11:46 |
| Golynx | but even them agree that mobile tarrifs must come down, but they want it to come down slowly at their pace | 11:46 |
| Kilos | they want it cheap from telkom but dont want to lower their price to comsumers | 11:48 |
| Kilos | swines | 11:48 |
| Golynx | ya , its hard to get out of any kind of comfort zone, even for the big babies lol | 11:50 |
| Kilos | you cant live in a mansion and drive the latest merc and live on peanuts | 11:51 |
| Golynx | lol | 11:53 |
| Golynx | they have to ditch the expensive peanuts for the cheaper ones | 11:53 |
| Kilos | lol | 11:54 |
| Kilos | who wanted to root a tablet here the other day? | 12:02 |
| Kilos | just got a mail with instructions | 12:02 |
| Private_User | afternoon all | 12:22 |

| Kilos | except money | 16:48 |
| SCR1845-6357A | well, as far as I know jozi no longer has many of the things it once had | 16:48 |
| SCR1845-6357A | so that's why I asked it | 16:48 |
| Kilos | ah | 16:49 |

| Kilos | hi captine wb | 18:00 |
| captine | hi Kilos | 18:00 |
| captine | How you doing | 18:00 |
| Kilos | good ty and you? | 18:01 |
| Kilos | im smiling, running 12.04 64bit | 18:01 |
| captine | doing good. | 18:01 |
| Kilos | lekker fast | 18:01 |
| captine | 12.04. nice. last night I managed to get 13.10 installed on macbook | 18:01 |
| captine | very happy | 18:01 |
| captine | love the keyboard on this machine | 18:02 |
| Kilos | yeah only prob is the support is only for 6 months | 18:02 |
| captine | yip | 18:02 |
| captine | I will wipe it with 14.04 when released. 13.10 supports my macbook much better | 18:02 |
| captine | per the wiki | 18:03 |
| Kilos | 14.04 is out in 2 months then you can upgrade and get 3 years support | 18:03 |
| captine | yip | 18:03 |
| captine | am looking forward to it. Really liked 12.04 | 18:03 |
| captine | had tried arch linux which was fun, but like the quick install and little effort to get a good looking machine with ubuntu | 18:03 |
| Kilos | lts is lekker it gives next lts time to stabilise before support drops | 18:03 |
| Kilos | yeah installs are getting quicker | 18:04 |
| captine | was actually wanting to try PC-BSD10 but struggle to get it installed on my acer | 18:04 |
| Kilos | only hold up nowadays is the upgrading via internet | 18:04 |
| captine | true that | 18:05 |
| captine | I managed to mirror almost all the 12.04 64bit repo's to make vm installs etc faster, but still need to get it working properly | 18:05 |
| captine | hate waiting for downloads | 18:05 |
| Kilos | thats why its good to save downloaded packages then if you need to install again you have them on hand | 18:05 |
| captine | do you watch the linux action show at all? | 18:05 |
| Kilos | mirrored where? | 18:06 |
| captine | mirrored it on a home vm | 18:06 |
| captine | on my lan | 18:06 |
| Kilos | i rsync everything to an external | 18:06 |
| Kilos | ah | 18:06 |
| Kilos | n pe i dont watch shows | 18:08 |
| Kilos | data dont allow vids etc | 18:08 |
| captine | ah | 18:10 |
| captine | I hate the cost of data here | 18:10 |
| captine | anyhow. what can you do | 18:10 |
| Kilos | yeah but getting better with telkom mobile | 18:10 |
| Private_User | not too bad on cell c captine check CellC giga packages | 18:15 |
| Private_User | prepaid data options | 18:15 |
| Kilos | hi Proxima_Centauri | 18:20 |
| Golynx | hi Proxima_Centauri | 18:21 |
| Golynx | hi Proxima_Centauri | 18:21 |
| captine | Private_User, thanks. Am on Cybersmart 70 gig during day and 1000 from midnight till 7 | 18:21 |
| captine | or something like that | 18:21 |
| Golynx | my second fav star | 18:21 |
| captine | on ADSL | 18:22 |
| Private_User | oh wow, whats the cost of that? | 18:23 |
| captine | R700 | 18:23 |
| captine | ish | 18:23 |
| captine | on a 10meg | 18:24 |
| captine | line | 18:24 |
| Private_User | that is not too bad is there any additional costs or catches? is the data renewed monthly? | 18:26 |
| captine | R544 per month for 20gig + line and then 99 extra for the additional 50gig + 1000 night gigs | 18:28 |
| captine | afrihost may be cheaper. but I have been with cybersmart for many years and like their support | 18:28 |
| captine | etc | 18:28 |
| Private_User | ok and the data is renewed every month? | 18:29 |
| Golynx | thats like data for the gods wow | 18:31 |
| Golynx | hi captine | 18:31 |
| Kilos | thats adsl captine ? | 18:32 |
| captine | yes renewed each month | 18:32 |
| captine | yip. adsl | 18:32 |
| Kilos | us on farms dont have telkom lines | 18:32 |
| captine | so must pay trelkom for the voice portion | 18:32 |
| captine | Kilos, i would give up adsl to have a nice farm ;-) | 18:33 |
| Kilos | haha | 18:33 |
| Golynx | is fibre expensive, or are they just slow in rolling it out in SA | 18:33 |
| superfly | fibre is hectically expensive | 18:34 |
| theblazehen | How Long is a chinese guy | 18:34 |
| superfly | but, if you can afford it, the ROI is brilliant | 18:34 |
| Golynx | hi superfly | 18:34 |
| superfly | theblazehen: is his brother's name "So Long"? | 18:34 |
| theblazehen | superfly, lol, nope | 18:35 |
| Golynx | oh wow so its really that expensive to produce some light carrying tubes | 18:35 |
| Kilos | nope the cost is not in the production | 18:35 |
| superfly | Golynx: it's actully quite expensive to manufacture, and then it can be more maintenance than copper | 18:36 |
| captine | cybersmart offer 100mbps fibre uncapped in rosebank for R10 000 per month | 18:36 |
| superfly | but, the long term benefits and better - fibre is worth nothing, compared to copper | 18:36 |
| superfly | captine: considering I pay around R1000/month for 10Mbps, that's actually pretty much the same cost | 18:37 |
| Golynx | ah i didnt know fibre were such high maintenance | 18:37 |
| Golynx | but alot of stuff goes in there | 18:37 |
| superfly | they both translate down to R100 per Mbps | 18:38 |
| superfly | Golynx: they also have to redo their infrastructure. it's all based around copper right now | 18:38 |
| Golynx | oh that makes sense, thanks superfly | 18:39 |
| captine | superfly, yip. it might be comparable in terms of price per mbps, however, it is a lot of cash for a home user to pay | 18:40 |
| superfly | captine: absolutely | 18:41 |
| superfly | hence why I said it's well priced, but that doesn't mean that I can afford it! :-D | 18:41 |
| captine | not a bad price though if a complex bought it and split it through 30 units or more. | 18:42 |
| captine | but that is probably against terms and conditions | 18:42 |
| superfly | certainly if you're on cybersmart | 18:42 |
| superfly | I might know the MD, but that doesn't mean I agree with their T's & C's :-) | 18:42 |
| captine | :) | 18:44 |
| captine | lol | 18:44 |
| captine | I must say, i didnt like some of their terms around using only them etc way back, but can understand it in terms of reducing their cost base on support etc | 18:44 |
| * Golynx likes the irc logs | 19:02 | |
| Kilos | haha | 19:03 |
| Kilos | too much to read | 19:03 |
