Kiloslol07:50
Kiloshi Vince-0 07:50
Vince-0o/ Oom Kilos 07:54
Kiloswhen you gonna add something interesting to the agenda Vince-0 08:00
Vince-0ha! I've been so busy here trying to start a company08:03
Kilosaha08:03
Kilosyours?08:03
Vince-0hopefully08:04
Kilosgood08:04
Vince-0;-) I think kbmonkey won't make it to chair this eve08:05
Vince-0I haven't been keeping up with the Canonical news, 08:06
Kilosya he told me, is he ok08:06
Kiloshe didnt answer when i asked is he ok08:06
Vince-0probably busy with work too08:06
Vince-0I'm sure I can dig up some news feed items about Ubuntu08:08
Vince-0I remember there being a desktop environment productivity study somewhere08:08
Kilosalso we need to find out what we can do to improve our connectivity in za08:09
Kiloslike to to email and rev08:09
KilosMaaz, google south african minister of communication08:10
MaazKilos: "Department Of Communications" http://www.doc.gov.za/ :: "Minister of Communications (South Africa) - Wikipedia, the free ..." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minister_of_Communications_(South_Africa) :: "Department of Telecommunications and Postal Services - Wikipedia ..." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Department_of_Telecommunications_and_Postal_Services ::08:10
Maaz"Blog: South Africa's new communications ministry causes concern" http://cpj.org/blog/2014/0…08:10
Vince-0ha08:10
Kilosi dunno what one would call that minister08:10
Vince-0cape town's pushing big fibre projects08:11
Kilosive found that if one complains to the top they get great pleasure in revving everyone beneath them08:11
Kilosyes fibre is the answer, but they need to wake up peeps like voda with their adds of how wonderful they are08:12
Kilostake bushtech for example, he gets utms from them but yoyos all the time, they have no excuse for that08:13
Vince-0Here's the untiy productivity article08:14
Vince-0http://news.softpedia.com/news/Believe-It-or-Not-Unity-Is-the-King-of-Productivity-450919.shtml08:14
Kilosconnectivity wise i cant complain, because im online nearly all the time08:14
ThatGraemeGuyheh08:19
ThatGraemeGuyyou want the ZA ubuntu loco to shout at govt to improve connectivity?08:19
=== SubOracle[away] is now known as SubOracle
Kilosnot as a loco but as individuals08:20
Kilosthe peeps at the top just sit and enjoy their incomes and perks, so, if no one informs them of what probs there are they just park off08:21
inetproKilos: pong08:22
inetprooh and hi08:23
Kiloslike pta govt section, i used to have power cuts almost daily everytime the wind blew or it rained and complaining didnt help08:23
Kilosi then got hold of the mayor and within 2 weeks all trees near lines were trimmed or removed and since then power has been quite stable08:24
Kilosohi inetpro are you ok?08:24
Kilosmeeting tonight08:24
nuvolariwhat meeting?08:24
nuvolario.O08:24
Kilosai!08:24
ThatGraemeGuyKilos: govt is forever making noise about improving connectivity08:25
ThatGraemeGuyas with many things, awareness isn't the issue, lack of action is08:25
Kilosyes ThatGraemeGuy that is 08:25
Kilosum08:25
Kiloser08:25
Kilosjust political talk to get votes08:25
Kiloswhen contacted at the top they actually do things08:26
Kilosall the speaches you here are written and read and not absorbed, one needs to actually make them act on complaints or issues08:27
Kilosread speeches go above or through minds08:28
nuvolaribut guys/ladies, remember, the previous regime kept the interwebs away from us before 1994! :P08:29
Kilos20 years ago08:29
nuvolariok, sorry, we're not supposed to discuss politics IIRC08:29
nuvolari:P08:29
Kiloswe as net users must do something to improve the net for us and future users08:30
Kilosas they say if you dont buy a ticket you cant win the prize08:30
nuvolarioom Kilos, it only went mainstream globally in 199408:31
nuvolariIIRC :P08:31
Kilosjust lurking and complaining will never have any results08:31
Kilosnuvolari, im mainly thinking of poor stability atm08:32
Kilosyouve all had it when trying to attend a meet or something08:32
Kilosif someone can point me to the correct peeps to contact ill do the mailing08:33
=== SubOracle is now known as SubOracle[away]
KilosThatGraemeGuy, i got my mv setup working , is it weaker than the lv setup? or did i do something wrong09:16
Kilosoh and what are solar panels for09:16
Kilosi have made some but they dont connect like the things with a cross inside09:17
Kiloshaha were there no comments or opinions to that link that unity is king09:21
Kiloshehe09:21
Kiloshttp://news.softpedia.com/news/Believe-It-or-Not-Unity-Is-the-King-of-Productivity-450919.shtml09:21
Kilosi think im the only one here using it still09:21
charli don't think it's that bad actually09:23
charlubuntu one is closing down /09:24
charl?09:24
nuvolaricharl: eh? you didn't get the annoying notifications? :P09:25
Kilosi read why somewhere, but as in my case maybe it wasnt utilised as it could be09:25
charlnuvolari: no somebody else i know just forwarded me a mail09:25
charli never use ubuntu one09:25
charlcloud storage in general09:26
charlat work we have a owncloud based thing now09:26
Kilosit worked quite fine to share things09:26
charlbut i'll keep it to that09:26
charli'm interested to know why they decided to cancel their service now09:26
charlconsidering that those types of tools are all the rage at the moment09:26
charlmaybe not profitable enough ?09:27
Kilosit was in the earlier emails i think charl  that they gave the reason why09:27
charlah ok never got them09:27
Kiloshttp://askubuntu.com/questions/444930/why-is-ubuntu-one-going-to-be-shut-down09:28
ThatGraemeGuyKilos: solar panel produces power09:31
ThatGraemeGuythe "thing with the cross" is a solar array, it also makes power, but more than a panel09:31
Kilosyou connect them with same cables ThatGraemeGuy ?09:31
ThatGraemeGuyMV stuff uses MV cables09:31
ThatGraemeGuyLV stuff LV cables09:31
ThatGraemeGuyguess what you use for HV stuff? :P09:32
ThatGraemeGuyLV/MV/HV is low/medium/high voltage09:32
Kilosoh i didnt notice if they were mv or lv09:32
ThatGraemeGuylv is white cables09:32
ThatGraemeGuymv cables are black09:32
Kilosya i got that far09:32
charlhttp://blog.canonical.com/2014/04/02/shutting-down-ubuntu-one-file-services/09:32
ThatGraemeGuyhv cables are black and yellow stripes09:32
Kilosdo your mv arrays also supply less power than the lv ones with same number of them cross things09:34
Kiloshehe09:34
Kilosi get 2500 from 5 lv ones and 1500 from same number mv ones09:35
Kilosbut they are on the opposit side of the roof09:36
Kilosopposite09:36
Kilosthat thing09:37
ThatGraemeGuysame height09:37
ThatGraemeGuy?09:37
Kilosyip09:37
ThatGraemeGuyweird09:37
Kilosill check again tonight09:37
ThatGraemeGuywait09:37
ThatGraemeGuyare they MV panels or MV arrays?09:37
Kilosarrays for both09:37
ThatGraemeGuyyou have LV arrays if i recall correctly09:37
ThatGraemeGuyoh09:37
ThatGraemeGuyweird09:37
ThatGraemeGuymine are HV, so i can't compare09:38
Kiloswas major work making mv arrays09:38
ThatGraemeGuyyea its a lot of effort09:38
ThatGraemeGuythe idea is to make you work for the more useful stuff09:38
Kiloslol09:38
ThatGraemeGuywait until you build a mining laser ;)09:38
ThatGraemeGuya mk3 one is a huge amount of resources09:39

Kilosok12:13
Kiloswow ThatGraemeGuy big one hey12:14
ThatGraemeGuyyes12:14
Kilosdid you see if that thing was a dungeon12:14
ThatGraemeGuywhen i was underground i picked up some lava into a lava can12:14
Kiloshaha naughty12:14
ThatGraemeGuyand then i was cutting trees and i guess i accidentally mousewheeled or something, because instead of cutting a tree i put down a lava block :(12:14
Kilosuh oh12:15
ThatGraemeGuyi'm looking into how rollback works12:15
Kilosyou rush too much12:15
ThatGraemeGuythere is apparently a rollback function so you can undo something12:15
ThatGraemeGuynot sure though12:15
Kilosits not serious12:15
Kiloswe havent done anything there really12:15
ThatGraemeGuyyou remember waaay back when you were playing with lava and pouring it from high into a lake?12:18
ThatGraemeGuythis is why i warned you to be careful ;-)12:18
ThatGraemeGuyalthough in this case i was in a jungle, which is pretty much the worst place to drop lava12:18
ThatGraemeGuyjungle grass and trees grow very close together :-/12:19
Kiloslol we made that lake mooi man12:19
Kilosive built some walls around so it can be filled again even higher12:20
Kilosthen we can make layered places12:21
Kilosdid you see the glass house the fly built under that lake12:21
ThatGraemeGuyno12:22

KilosMaaz  hi12:31
MaazHowzit Kilos12:31
ThatGraemeGuyKilos: http://mt.donaldson.za.net/new.png12:32
ThatGraemeGuywater didn't help12:32
ThatGraemeGuyif you stand still it seems that fire only spreads a certain distance12:32
ThatGraemeGuyexcept some fire still exists at the edge of that distance12:32
Kilosah12:32
ThatGraemeGuyand as soon as you move closer more stuff starts burning12:33
Kiloslike everything else it needs new source to carry on12:33
ThatGraemeGuyyou see that square, i was standing at the centre of it, so it only burned until that distance12:33
ThatGraemeGuydidn't spread, but i could still see fire at the edges of the square12:33
Kilosweird12:33
ThatGraemeGuyand as soon as i moved closer it started spreading again12:33
Kilosdont peeps get burned12:34
ThatGraemeGuyyes12:34
ThatGraemeGuyif you stand right in it12:34
Kiloseish more system updates available12:34
Kilosi know lava really cooks you, i have the pile of bones to prove it12:37
magespawngood afternoon all13:33
charlhi magespawn :)13:38
magespawnhey charl13:38
nuvolariai keeel you! slf4j is a pile of nonsense13:54
nuvolarianyone around that knows how to tame it?13:54
charlnuvolari: have you tried log4j13:57
charllogging in java is a mess in any case13:57
magespawnanyone know for sure what frequencies are unlicensed in south africa? 14:03
nuvolaricharl: it's a 3rd party lib using it14:04
nuvolaricharl: I might be missing the point of all the logging frameworks, but we've been quite happy with JUL14:05
nuvolaribut yeah, agreed, logging is a PITA14:05
charla pita? looking it up14:08
charloh, now i see :) thought it sounded a bit like spanish puta14:09
nuvolarilol14:12
ThatGraemeGuymagespawn: you mean spectrum available for licensing or bands that may be used without licence?14:13
ThatGraemeGuyeither way, icasa likely has the information14:14
ThatGraemeGuywhether its easily understood is a different question14:15
magespawnThatGraemeGuy, that is the problem, i am looking at the bands that can be used without a licence14:17
ThatGraemeGuywhat are you doing?14:18
magespawni understood that 2.4Ghz and 5.2Ghz where un-licensed14:18
ThatGraemeGuyoffhand i know of 2.4GHz and 5GHz14:18
magespawnlooking into wug and other wan network ideas14:18
ThatGraemeGuyyeah that's where 802.11 stuff goes14:18
ThatGraemeGuyah14:19
ThatGraemeGuyyeah thats what they use14:19
ThatGraemeGuyhttp://www.scoopdistribution.co.za/index.php/antennas-24ghz-c-38?osCsid=a5bsan37h22l07fecfv2i8d1g2 and http://www.scoopdistribution.co.za/index.php/antennas-5ghz-c-37?osCsid=a5bsan37h22l07fecfv2i8d1g214:19
ThatGraemeGuywith WUG its best to get in touch with your local guys, they are typically quite helpful14:19
ThatGraemeGuywell the CTWUG guys are at least14:19
magespawnalso i think that if it goes out your property you still have to apply to icasa for licence exemption14:20
ThatGraemeGuywhich equipment you need is dependant on what's already in place near you14:20
ThatGraemeGuynot sure14:20
magespawnthat is what i understand from icasa14:21
ThatGraemeGuybut contact your WUG people, they will likely know all the answers already. no need to get lost alone, rely on the community14:21
magespawni think the durban one will be the closest14:22
ThatGraemeGuywhere are you?14:22
magespawnEmpangeni currently but mostly Hluhluwe14:22
ThatGraemeGuyah14:24
magespawni did not know about that supplier, thanks for those links14:25
ThatGraemeGuynp14:26
magespawnalso from icasa if you provide any service to a third party regardless of the frequency you use you have to be licensed14:26
ThatGraemeGuythe WUG people typically have an IRC hangout that's usually a good place to lurk for a bit14:27
ThatGraemeGuyyou are supplying yourself with service :P14:27
ThatGraemeGuyif there was an ICASA hassle they would've shut down the WUGs already14:27
ThatGraemeGuyseriously, talk to your WUG people, they have all these answers already, no sense trying to speculate or make sense of ICASA nonsense14:28
Kiloshi magespawn  Gremble  lemme catch up14:35
magespawnhey Kilos14:37
magespawni think WUG fall under the exemption part of the rules14:38
magespawni agree with that ThatGraemeGuy 14:40
charlthese issues are often a legal grey area, just like many others14:46
charlif you join a wug, you have strength in numbers14:47
charlbesides, you can simply state it's community building14:47
charlrather join a larger existing group of people than trying to go at it yourself14:47
Kiloshe is miles away from  any wugs charl  14:48
Kilosmagespawn  is this for home town or pangeni14:49
magespawnhome town Kilos14:49
ThatGraemeGuyKilos: wug links can be up to 50km depending on equipment and environment14:49
ThatGraemeGuythey're a bit more powerful than your WiFi AP at home ;-)14:49
Kiloshe is more than 50k from pangeni i think14:50
magespawni am not sure but i think the nearest 250km +14:50
Kilosya14:50
magespawnin durban14:50
ThatGraemeGuyah, that might be a significant hurdle14:50
charlnope no luck there14:50
ThatGraemeGuyyou will have to build repeaters ;-)14:50
charlyou're going to need multiple relays indeed14:50
magespawni have not found anything here in empangeni14:50
Kilosmagespawn  hometown including parks?14:50
magespawnjust the town and any out lying farmers that want to join14:51
charlmagespawn: speak to the DWC guys, they were making a killing14:51
Kiloshaha you gonna make them pay with pineapples14:51
magespawnmight be an idea14:52
charlmagespawn: they might already have some long-range relay points14:52
magespawnDWC ?14:52
charlthe DWC used to be big, i don't know how they are right now14:52
charlmy knowlege about za is outdated :)14:52
charlhttp://www.dwc.za.net/14:52
Kilosmagespawn  is quite clued up with wifi  equipment already he has done that one resort in a park iirc14:53
Kilosits just the legal stuff hey magespawn  ?14:53
Kilosbeen in your mind more than a year now14:54
magespawnyup i have sort out the licence exemption services and networks application14:54
charlbbl all14:55

Vince-0at least then its not working for the man!15:30
Kiloslol15:31
Kilosyou find you are a harder taskmaster on yourself than anyone else was15:31
Vince-0I do envy the farm dwellers somewhat. Been watching Doomsday Preppers lol15:32
Kilosliving on a farm is lekker but farming is hard work 24/715:33
Kiloswhen not working you worry about what you should have already done15:33
Vince-0I like the idea of being self sufficient, subsintence etc15:35
Kilosyes it is a satisfying achievement, you can look in the mirror and say hi boss15:37
Kiloshi Tonberry  meeting tonight hey15:37
Kilosnote tuesday15:37

Kiloswhy so early15:50
bushtechcar service, closest subie stealership in midrand15:52
bushtechdidn't know I drive a Lambo, wanted to charge me R7,600 for a rear silencer box. Told him where he can put it15:55
Kiloswow15:56

Kiloswhat a diffs hey15:57
bushtecha factor of 1015:58
Kilosyip15:59
Kiloswhat car is it15:59
magespawndealerships are always more expensive, the price for keeping the warrenty intact15:59
bushtechand what makes me really cross is the women who bring their cars in, don't know any better and just have to hoes15:59
Kilosyeah16:00
bushtechForester16:00
magespawnsome men too16:00
bushtechfor sure16:00
bushtechbut their prices ensures that their head mechanic has got a very lucrative business at home lol16:02
Grembleo/16:02
Kiloslol16:05
GrembleI once took my Bantam to a mechanic to replace the rear brakes and fix the handbrake. After I got it back both my back bearings destroyed my drums and the handbrake did not work.16:08
GrembleI don't have a car at the moment16:08
Kiloseish16:08
GrembleNot a fan. Haha. The reason I took it to him was because I struggled to replace the rear brakes myself. 16:10
GrembleDrums are a pain in the arse16:10
Kilosai!16:10
bushtechYeah! need to note where everything goes & which way & which side16:11
Kiloswhen you have a car its good to try get a correct workshop manual. everything is explained nicely in them16:11
magespawnHaynes Workshop manuals16:12
Gremble^ Those manuals are so expensive though 16:12
GrembleI tried to find one on the internet16:12
magespawnhttp://www.autobooks.co.za/16:13
bushtechmake very very good friends with the parts manager & try to get a st of workshop manuals out of him16:13
bushtechs/st set16:13
Gremble;p16:13
Kilosyes they are magespawn  but work out what you save paying someone else16:14
