| diddledan | can someone confirm that I'm not barmy? trying to login to ubuntu software centre via various methods such as "turn on recommendations" or "reinstall past purchases" I get an error from the single sign-on dialog that it gets a 404 from the ubuntu one server | 01:03 |
| diddledan | obviously "not barmy" is a bit of a misnomer because it's obvious that I am somewhat barmy | 01:04 |
| daftykins | ;D | 01:07 |
| daftykins | wish i could help sir but i don't think i can reproduce on windoze? | 01:07 |

| diddledan | yeah I guess I should have highlighted the pre-requisite that you gotta be running ubuntu | 01:08 |

| diddledan | I figure it hasn't worked since composited X11 came along, which means years. why hasn't anyone actually fixed it yet or has nobody noticed that since 2012 it's been broken? | 04:07 |

| bigcalm | http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00F1DOUXY/ | 09:59 |
| * awilkins has an _old_ keyboard | 09:59 | |
| awilkins | Holy toledo that's an expensive Cherry-keyboard-with-USB-hub | 10:00 |
| awilkins | Have an old one of these at work | 10:01 |
| awilkins | http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cherry-Quality-Action-Keyboard-G80-3000LSCGB-2/dp/B0041KJKAG | 10:01 |
| awilkins | Have a vintage Model M at home | 10:01 |
| bigcalm | I spend my life at the computer, decided that it was worth the expense | 10:02 |
| awilkins | If it fails I'll try to get another or maybe shell out for a Unicomp | 10:02 |
| awilkins | Oh, quite | 10:02 |
| bigcalm | I have a Unicomp IBM Model M on my shelf now - it's what I was using prior to this one | 10:02 |
| awilkins | Decided a long time ago that screen, keyboard, mouse are the components that survive multiple computers and you may as well shell out for the best | 10:02 |
| awilkins | Would be interested to see how the Unicomp ones compare to the vintage ones | 10:03 |
| awilkins | Any reason why you switched to the Das? | 10:03 |
| awilkins | I love my model M | 10:03 |
| bigcalm | My fingers were getting tired | 10:03 |
| awilkins | I suppose the Cherry switches do have a lighter touch | 10:03 |
| awilkins | And a different click | 10:03 |
| bigcalm | Did some research on cherry mx switches and chose to go brown | 10:04 |
| awilkins | I think mine are blues | 10:04 |
| awilkins | I spilt smoothie in it the other day and had to pry off the caps | 10:04 |
| bigcalm | Yeah, my wife was getting fed up of the clicking | 10:04 |
| bigcalm | You can buy my Unicomp kb if you want ;) | 10:04 |
| bigcalm | Actually, I have 2. The company sent me a US layout 1st by mistake | 10:06 |

| awilkins | My mouse pointer is stuck in the left-right resize form | 10:24 |
| awilkins | And now it can't escape from the right-hand monitpr | 10:25 |
| awilkins | Or click on things | 10:25 |
| joshua__ | I want to cache DNS locally on some ubuntu servers, first hit should query the internal BIND dns server and then something like dnsmasq should cache the response for a set amount of time. Sounds sane? | 10:25 |
| awilkins | Ok, it was Spotify | 10:25 |
| awilkins | But an app shouldn't be able to trap your pointer like that <growls at the X server> | 10:26 |
| awilkins | joshua__, Doesn't this already happen? | 10:26 |
| bigcalm | Ooo, 5 red arrows just flew over | 10:26 |
| awilkins | joshua__, I know the desktop distribution runs dnsmasq and uses it to cache DNS hits out of the box | 10:26 |
| * awilkins fires up his server VM to check that too | 10:27 | |
| joshua__ | hmm, server doesn't seem to be doing that.. | 10:27 |
| awilkins | Nope, isn't running dnsmasq | 10:28 |
| joshua__ | So I setup dnsmasq to listen on 127.0.0.1 and in the config file put my upstream DNS servers to query? | 10:29 |
| joshua__ | sorry, being lazy here really | 10:29 |

| Azelphur | davmor2: broken packages, managed to get it to install but it crashes on connect | 13:47 |
| davmor2 | Azelphur: meh yeah I forgot about that | 13:47 |
| Azelphur | davmor2: the problem with the nomachine client is that it has no sane screen scaling, and in a multi monitor setup it's unusable | 13:48 |
| joshua__ | Hey guys, am using dnsmasq on my servers to cache DNS, and have set upstream to be my bind DNS servers, which do not have dnsmasq.

| ali1234 | similar same? | 23:37 |
| ali1234 | *name? | 23:37 |
| daftykins | i reset the password on the account for this website, which is legit... (farming related by the looks) then found a postal address then started googling | 23:38 |
| daftykins | actually i didn't even reset it, i got sent an email saying my new temporary password was... | 23:38 |
| daftykins | http://www.cargillag.com/ | 23:38 |
| daftykins | 'tis from this :> | 23:38 |
| daftykins | so this company is a farmer produce selling contractor by the looks | 23:39 |
| ali1234 | that's ... weird | 23:39 |
| daftykins | over skype he told me he'd just gone through renaming his farm or whatever | 23:39 |
| daftykins | and mentioned this company was helping with that process | 23:39 |
| daftykins | so i've just found his local rep and asked him by email to sort it out | 23:39 |

| daftykins | ah right | 23:40 |
| daftykins | basically my gmail is <first initial><surname>@ | 23:40 |

| diddledan | daftykins, dkins@gmail? :-p | 23:41 |
| daftykins | contacted her employer and asked wtf | 23:41 |
| daftykins | she started buying office supplies and signing up my email, thinking i'd forward them to her work | 23:42 |
