Symmetriagah, damn dell06:46
SymmetriaI cant believe Im doing this, installing windoze to configure a san so I can reboot and install linux :P because the damn linux versions are deadrat only06:46
Symmetriathey wont install under ubuntu06:46
Symmetriaso either install windoze or install deadrat or suse06:47
Kilosai!06:47
Symmetriaand on principle I wont install deadrat on anything06:47
nuvolario/ oh hi06:55
Kiloslo nuvolari 06:56
nuvolarihi oom Kilos 06:56
SymmetriaI seriously wish companies like dell would realize no one uses deadrat anymore07:02
charlgood morning07:02
Symmetriaand they really should start supporting linux distributions that are slightly more modern07:02
* Symmetria bitches and whines07:03
Kiloshi charl battling to type hands are so cold07:03
charlKilos: bah :(07:03
KilosSymmetria, petition them07:03
charlSymmetria: i had that the other day - needed to install dataverse network and the only officially supported linux distro is deadrat07:03
charlSymmetria: ended up installing centos though, i'm not going to even bother buying deadrat licenses07:04
SymmetriaIm gonna install suse, this windows installation is giving me crap07:04
charlarnaudmez: so you're on congo ! whow don't get many congonese people here07:26
Kiloshi arnaudmez 07:27
Symmetriawhich congo 07:40
Symmetriathe drc or congo da brazil 07:40
arnaudmezhi charl07:46
arnaudmezhi Kilos07:46
arnaudmezSymmetria: Congo Brazzaville07:46
arnaudmezcharl: where are you located ?07:46
SymmetriaI'm always amused by the fact that there is a large fiber system between brazzaville and kinshasa but its never been plugged in07:47
Symmetriabecause the governments can't agree on crap07:47
arnaudmezSymmetria: you are right but also remember historically these two countries are totally different and almost never worked together07:48
Symmetria*sigh* why does suse linux installation insist on sending dhcp to every interface that you can't cancel and have to wait to time out before install07:49
arnaudmezSymmetria: the only thing that link these two is the river07:49
Symmetriayou have any idea how long that takes when you have 14 interfaces in the box :P07:49
Symmetriaarnaudmez yeah but its still bizarre because kinshasa is the only way to get to WACS07:49
Symmetriathats the entire problem with most of west africa though, no one wants to work together even in their own mutual benefit07:50
arnaudmezSymmetria: actually not, kinshasa put his hope on Brazzaville for access to WACS to be effective07:51
arnaudmezkinshasa doesn't have direct access to the sea cable at all but still they are preparing necessary infrastructures for the day all will get finalized with Brazzaville regarding F.O07:52
arnaudmezbut after all, i can only tell you what the news paper tells us :-)07:54
Symmetriaarnaudmez heh, there is direct fiber to the wacs station from kinshasa07:57
SymmetriaI know because I've seen it myself07:57
Symmetriatrust me on this :P if there is one thing I know about, its where fiber in africa goes 07:57
Symmetrialol I can tell you a lot about what the papers ARENT saying :)08:09
arnaudmezSymmetria: :-)08:12
Symmetriawow we're running at 1.3gig into kampala right now08:20
Symmetriathats... high08:20
Symmetriaheh finally decided for configuring I'd go with SL6.5 since I had shit installing suse and windows :P08:23
SymmetriaSL6.5 seems to be installing ok :P08:23

inetprogood evening08:58
inetprooops, mornings as well08:58
Kiloshelloooo inetpro 08:58
Kilosvrek koud ne08:58
inetprosun is shining 08:58
Kilosya man you know what i mean. how were your hands when you got to work?08:59
Golynx_all i see is white mountains when i step outside08:59
inetpronot as bad as other days08:59
Kilosai!09:01
charlarnaudmez: in NL09:02
Golynx_flowcharts to design programs . Good or bad?09:03
Golynx_pseudo code is confusing09:03
charlGolynx_: what are you trying to do exactly09:04
Golynx_design a life manager app 09:04
inetproa life manager app?09:05
Golynx_i like the visual structure of flowcharts , so i know what i'm doing 09:05
Golynx_i cant go into much details 09:06
inetproyou mean as in lifecycle management?09:06
Golynx_its just flowcharts that improves the design experience so much more09:06
charlthat is so vague i have no idea what it's supposed to mean09:07
Golynx_nope real person("life", "living", "alive") 09:08
charlas in, get up, brush your teeth, eat breakfast, drink coffee, go to work ?09:09
Golynx_hmm i guess no one here design programs then, nevermind09:09
inetprouh, so your question is?09:09
Golynx_charl ja09:10
charlwhy would you want that ?09:10
Golynx_the question is , does anyone here use flowcharts to design programs09:10
charlon the odd occasion if you have complex architecture or data flows yes09:11
charlbut not to "design programs" per se, more on a higher level09:11
Golynx_charl not me, all the people that care about knowing themselves and improving themselves 09:11
* inetpro prefers to see things mapped out visually but haven't been doing programming for some time09:12
Golynx_yes , flowcharts is a kind of higher level language in itself09:12
inetprosometimes it can be a waste of precious time09:12
Golynx_inetpro: designing with flowcharts first without diving into coding is very rewarding. A whole lot less bugs to worry about in the future09:13
inetprodefinitely helps when you have to transfer conceptual knowledge to others in a team09:14
Golynx_yeah true09:15
inetprobut programming in a team is always very difficult and can slow you down to a grind09:17
inetproobviously the opposite can be true if you have a team that works together very well09:17
inetproGolynx_: so waht do you use for drawing the flowcharts?09:19
inetprowhat as well09:20
Golynx_first i used Dia , but too much bloat. Now i'm fine with the smaller clickcharts. It gets the job done fast.09:22
mazalOom Kilos , I just found a Nyan Cat and Nyan Cat Rainbow !! :))09:35
inetproGolynx_: smaller clickcharts like?09:36
mazalBoth of them right next to each other :)09:36
Kiloshi mazal bduk1 09:41
Golynx_inetpro: its about 2mb with a lot of features. I like anything made by Nch software. All of there programs are small and powerful.09:41
Kiloswow mazal 09:41
Golynx_their*09:41
Kiloshow far down and in what area09:41
inetproGolynx_: 2mb? Wow, where do you get that?09:42
Golynx_but its for windows :)09:42
inetproai!09:42
Golynx_http://www.nchsoftware.com09:43
mazalOom Kilos I was only at -38809:44
mazalSaw a pink glow , and there it was :)09:44
Kilosin what area mazal? desert or green valleys or what09:47
Kilosi dont know what you can do with it09:47
mazalI'm not sure what is on top of me , if my bearings is correct I am under a desert09:48
mazalStarted below dirt but had to move left while mining a few times to avoid lava and caves and think I am below a big desert by now09:49
superflyGolynx_: that's what I use a todo manager for09:51
Kiloshi superfly 09:55
superflyhi Kilos09:55
Golynx_superfly: its got nothing to do with a todo list lol09:56
Golynx_its something way different09:57
Golynx_i may include a todo list feature in it, so thanks for the idea :)09:59
arnaudmezhi superfly09:59
superflyhi arnaudmez09:59
Golynx_superfly: is lua better than python?10:04
superflyGolynx_: I've never used Lua10:06
Golynx_oh ok, i will ask google :)10:07
jabberwockya19Golynx_: it's faster10:16
jabberwockya19just missed him10:16
superfly"it's faster" is really not much of an argument these days10:16
jabberwockya19all depends on what you're trying to do10:17
jabberwockya19but yeah mostly people just want something that "works"10:17
superflyThese days a business is more interested in "how quickly can we get this out?"10:18
superflyand that is one of the areas where Python excels.10:18
jabberwockya19yeah, and then you also get languages that is slow but later gets very optimized, JS is a good example with v8 and asmjs etc10:18
superflyeish... JS... almost as bad as PHP10:20
jabberwockya19sad but true10:20
jabberwockya19one example where lua is beter than python (or any other scripting lang) is where it's used in 3d engines10:20
superflyloosely types languages are horrible10:20
superflyyes, like minetest ;-)10:21
superflyI think it's because it's easy to write a plugin system for a C++ app that uses Lua10:21
jabberwockya19I love the design of golang, I don't know the lang very well, but the more I study it the more I like it10:21
jabberwockya19the strong type yet still dynamic aspect is not easy to balance10:22
jabberwockya19it's funny how people support broken tech, like facebook and their hiphopVM than later releasing hacklang and meanwhile people are still developing php in the background10:25
jabberwockya19hacklang question: why do you reinvent the wheel? answer: because php's wheel is a triangle10:27
superflyjabberwockya19: https://www.flickr.com/photos/raindrift/sets/7215762949290803811:01
charlused extundelete for the first time - worked amazing !11:04
jabberwockya19superfly: I've seen that before, but never knew it was a real thing! (too much photoshop going around)11:11
jabberwockya19awesome name for recovery software, I wil remember it11:13
tumbleweedsuperfly: I'd say these days it's worse. JS is the new PHP11:53
tumbleweedthe newbies use it for everything11:53
Golynx_js is the future!11:54
Golynx_nodejs should replace php though11:54
Golynx_i hope websockets kills http11:55
tumbleweedI hope the opposite11:55
tumbleweedI can speak http, it's simple11:55
Golynx_http its too old and static11:56
Golynx_websockets are dynamic and got so much more to offer11:56
jabberwockya19_can't tell if you're tolling or not :-/12:11
jabberwockya19_I developed 2 years full time using nodejs & coffescript, I loved it!12:15
jabberwockya19_That was also the first time we wrote tests for our code and we had a really good team of devs12:15
jabberwockya19_when your app becomes really complex it's very difficult to maintain loose type software and it's as simple as that12:16
jabberwockya19_tl;dr use node to test the market for new creative ideas12:17
mazalBye everyone , have a good night12:47
jabberwockya19__superfly: this one is also funny http://www.php.net/manual/en/datetimeimmutable.modify.php 12:55
charljabberwockya19_: for a moment there you were like this: https://i.chzbgr.com/maxW500/5649065728/hF4995500/14:34
jabberwockya19_hahaha I love that meme!14:35
charlsame guy as shut up and take my money !14:36

SymmetriaBOOM14:57
Symmetrialast reboot and I can go home :P hopefully it comes up the way it should 15:00
jabberwockya19_Symmetria: so... what's your favourite type of drive ^_^15:02
Symmetriajabber lol, I use seagates myself at home, these are also seagates I think15:02
Symmetriathough in large arrays, I dont really give a damn much anymore15:02
SymmetriaI just like having a 121 terabyte file system15:03
Symmetria;p15:03
Symmetriathat makes me warm and fuzzy15:03
SymmetriaI just hope the thing doesnt keep renaming my network interfaces, it was doing wierd things and couldnt decide what to name interfaces, it was renaming them on reboot 15:05
Symmetriawhich really screwed shit up15:05
jabberwockya19_how many raid contollers did you use?15:06
jabberwockya19_te best one I've had was a R3000 LSI 4 port pci-e controller, I'm not a sysadmin tho15:07
jabberwockya19_at home I just use rsync for backups, I've used backup pc in the past15:09
Symmetriaheh, this is a single dual port 6gig SAS HBA linked to several units15:09
Symmetriathat are full of drives15:10
theblazehenSymmetria: search udev network naming15:15
theblazehenChange happened in arch a few months back.15:16
theblazehenThey look like enp2s0 right?15:16
Symmetriaheh, p3p4 etc etc15:17
SymmetriaI have 15 interfaces in here though and its getting confusing15:17
SymmetriaI think Im gonna go with net.ifnames=1 biosdevname=0 on my kernel config15:18
Symmetriato stop it15:18
Symmetriaanyway heading home15:18
Symmetriaback from there15:18
