MooDoowow flacky internet at home this morning :(06:40
Myrttioh man... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-2822315006:44
MartijnVdSyeah.. it's hard to backdoor an uncharged device06:45
MooDoomore ways of affecting the public.06:54
SuperMattI'll be honest, I think if the authorities want to be able to access your device, they'll just take your device and plug it in07:25
MooDoothey can have mine, as long as they don't mind seeing pics of my kids or cats.07:25
SuperMattI can imagine it'll be frustrating for people who need to take a laptop abroad that doesn't hold its charge07:26
MooDooI think they will check it before you get on then that's in....madness sheer madness07:27
SuperMattoh yay, we no support centos 7 without any training in systemd \o/07:33
MooDooso get training then07:34
SuperMattoh, and there's firewalld to learn as well07:35
SuperMattI'm so happy right now07:35
MooDooSuperMatt: come on your rhce, it's a breeze for you to learn07:35
SuperMattI was *rhcsa* but that has expired now07:42
MooDooSuperMatt: you redoing it, it's omething I'm working too07:43
SuperMattnope07:43
MooDoooh ok07:43
SuperMattthere's no call for people to do it here07:43
SuperMattonce you're in, it's just a piece of paper07:43
popeyMorning!07:43
MooDooreally?  ah right, thought rhce was a requirement.07:43
MooDoomorning popey07:43
SuperMattsome of the teams might have it as a requirement, I guess07:44
SuperMattespecially if you're working in enterprise07:45
MooDooah ok :D07:45
popeyTheOpenSourcerer: having fun with leaflet?07:55

brobostigonmorning MooDoo08:20
foobarryhow much has changed since rhce5 though tbh. upstart is going away too.08:27
foobarryis centos7 64bit only?08:29
foobarrymaybe i386 come later when the build servers stop chugging08:29
MooDoofoobarry: yes it's 64bit only08:35
MooDoofoobarry: http://pastebin.com/MbL8GZMh08:37
MooDooit's RHEL, but read it as CentOS as well08:37
foobarryinteresting08:39
TwistedLucidityThis is weird. "host <ip>" and "dig -x <ip>" both work and I can see the name in the answer section. "dig <name>" doesn't. I see the authority section, but no answer. :-S08:39
TwistedLucidityAnnndd....good morning08:40
foobarryis one result cached?08:40
TwistedLucidityMight be up on the DNS server I guess.08:40
TwistedLucidityBut if it has and ip/name entry, why not just return it?08:40
foobarrygives new meaning to the words ticket mountain. http://imgur.com/CmLuvLJ08:42

foobarrynew ticket system08:51
foobarryalso, we have intelligent users. most tickets are generally software compilation, packaging issues rather than "printer is broke" (which go to main helpdesk)08:52
foobarrysome tickets are taking longer than a week to resolve, which means, input > output ..08:54
foobarrycentos installer has got a bit nicer09:02
MooDoofoobarry: shame no current inplace upgrade from 6.5 to 709:15
TwistedLucidityHmm...there's a bunch of servers and vm guests with the strange asymmetric "dig" behaviour. Someone, somewhere, has messed up.09:15
* TwistedLucidity hops it wasn't him09:15
TwistedLucidity*hopes09:16

foobarryhad to kill it. felt sick10:19
awilkinsWhen I has squirrels I fancied a Ratzapper 200010:22
awilkins*had10:22
awilkinsI had to make do with a cage trap. Offing them was also pretty nerve wracking10:22
DJonesfoobarry: I'd lend you a dog, but I don't think my parents would be too happy, one of theirs chases and catches mice, then proceeds to eat them and then sick it up a couple of hours later10:41
foobarryi have a ratter type dog10:43
foobarryshe seemed uninsterested, which is weird for her10:44
DJonesfoobarry: This is a collie, should be chasing sheep, not mice10:44
foobarryif the mouse is in the garden she tries to catch10:45
foobarryshe chases squirrels10:46
foobarryif she saw the mouse scuttling across the floor maybe10:46
foobarryshe hates the meerkat toys10:46
foobarryhad to hide them instantly10:46

diddledanI've not seen any elephants around here ever since I started using it14:21
awilkinsdavmor2, The tiger is a mammal14:26
davmor2awilkins: and after it eats everything it will starve to death, proving my point :P14:27
davmor2diddledan: I bet you've been using Eagle repellent too right,  I've not seen many of those round here for a while :)14:28
foobarrydepends if it learns how to use the internet14:28

diddledanhow's that work then? : the 456ft monster that ranks as the world's tallest and fastest coaster in North America <-- it's either the world, or north america. it can't be both?16:20
diddledanaah, thankyou DM, I was hoping you'd use the elephant scale16:22
diddledan"The ride uses a massive 5,551ft of cable, a grand total of 26,502 bolts and has enough steel structuring reinforcing columns added to equal the weight of 32 massive African elephants"16:22
diddledanwhere on earth would we be without the DM Elephant scale?!16:23

daftykinswell i'm glad i didn't go in there17:47
foobarryjpds: in the MBR?17:50
jpdsfoobarry: Yep.17:52
foobarrythat sucks17:52
jpdsfoobarry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexnet17:52
foobarry"Basically, FlexNet works by writing stuff directly to the hard drive, to unallocated space between the Master Boot Record, and the first partition. That means there is a good chance it will break your bootloader, in case you are not using only Windows."17:53
daftykinssounds like some utterly irresponsible devs that should be fired out of a cannon18:05
MartijnVdS"it's a feature"18:08

daftykinsugh all i can hear are intermittent cackles coming from the neighbours23:17
daftykinsthey have a window wide open and these old houses have single pane glass windows and badly fitting doors23:17

dwatkinsMy neighbour was watching something loud on TV, seems to have stopped now thankfully.23:19
dwatkinsI considered taking it up with them or (if necessary) the council, but heared too many stories about loud neighbours who got worse when reported :-23:20
dwatkins:-/ even23:20
diddledangrr, google haven't launched the "ok, google! what's on my chromecast?" response mechanism yet23:21
diddledanI wanted to know more about an image23:21
daftykins0o23:24
daftykinsdwatkins: have you spoken to the neighbour yet?23:24
daftykinsi can see how someone would get annoyed if they weren't spoken to first23:24
diddledandaftykins: some folk might not feel confident enough to talk to the neighbour first23:26
daftykinsi can understand that23:27
