[15:39] Bit of background to anyone that sees this later and feels they could help: 10 machines, old Dell R210's we have lying around, matched specs as close to the NUC's in the Orange Box as much as possible.

[15:44] http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2014/06/hands-on-with-canonicals-orange-box-and-a-peek-into-cloud-nirvana/ suggests that node0 has a virtual machine on it, that looks to have had Juju deployed onto it. Yet as far as I'm aware, Juju's bootstrapping process (when run on node0) is simply going to pick a random node and attempt to deploy the Juju workload to it.

[16:04] directhex: yea I know :) [16:06] ali1234, In real life, an area affect that sets the map on fire will kill you if you fly because the uprising gases will have no oxygen in them [16:07] * awilkins wonders if enlightened DMs for D&D take this into account when hurling a fireball into a 10x10 room of fireproof creatures that nevertheless have to metabolise === alan_g is now known as alan_g|EOW [17:06] any kerbal addicts? this is awesome https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RQ-CShPYEk [17:06] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RQ-CShPYEk: SKY + + BOX - A Kerbal Space Program Movie - YouTube [17:10] thank you snarfit! :) [17:11] almost 11 whole minutes! [17:45] czajkowski: Hippo Birdy [19:12] I think it's time I stopped working for today [19:12] yip [19:12] i'm debating a curry [19:13] mm, tasty [19:13] just watched a horrid film [19:13] i'm feeling too lazy to bother to shave to look presentable, to go and get it though :( [19:13] don't know why i carried on watching [19:19] you need to shave to get a curry? [19:19] yeah i don't like going out in public looking homeless :) [19:20] if you're going to curry or co-op,. its ok [19:21] i was at work with 5 day growth this week [19:21] 5 whole days? you lot are lightweights [19:21] <-- hippy [19:22] 5 days = scruffy [19:22] I rock homeless all the time :) I apparently can't grow a beard. I can grow 5 beards which aren't on speaking terms with each other. [19:27] i can't grow anything though [19:27] shauno: lol, like it [19:28] trouble is i'm in the centre of town, i'm guaranteed to see someone i know too, given as it's Guernsey [19:28] and there's one degree of separation [19:28] I wasn't sure. I have you and directhex perpetually confused in my head. As soon as the conversation's over, I'll instantly forget which of you is the islander :) [19:29] d'aww [19:29] it's easy, hexy is all sensible with wife and child [19:29] i'm the care-free daft one [19:30] lol [19:31] hmm i'm gonna nip off to the curry house then, hopefully it's not chock full of lairy work-meal types [19:35] yummy [19:44] is it a good thing or bad that transformers made the "blwoooorp" noise so prevalent? [19:48] I'm not sure what you're talking about. and /exec say blwoooorp didn't help much [19:50] reminds me, completely off topic, but I have some accessibility stuff turned on for various reasons. and I'm fairly sure my mac's pronounciation of english is getting worse [19:51] it's because they're using siri [19:51] siri is learning bad english off chavs [19:51] that's then getting ploughed into the maps for speach synthesis [19:54] it's inception that invented the noise, aparently (re: my transformers comment): http://blogs.indiewire.com/theplaylist/braaam-10-trailers-that-use-abuse-the-inception-braaam-20130412 [19:54] http://blogs.indiewire.com/theplaylist/braaam-10-trailers-that-use-abuse-the-inception-braaam-20130412: BRAAAM! 10 Trailers That Use & Abuse The 'Inception' BRAA | The Playlist [19:55] https://www.dropbox.com/s/ge7qin4fafi6kre/serena.mp3?dl=0 [19:55] https://www.dropbox.com/s/ge7qin4fafi6kre/serena.mp3?dl=0: Dropbox - serena.mp3 [19:56] (and seriously, I think a whitelist is the way to go ;) [19:57] it's handy for youtube, vimeo, and ... almost nothing else. [19:58] but yeah, the voice synth. whenever it has to pronounce the name of a process, it butchers it. it can say "login window", but not "loginwindow" [19:58] who runs snarfit? [19:58] I'm not sure "runs" is valid [19:58] for irssi users, it should tinyurl the link [19:58] I fired it and forgot [19:59] so when it repeats the link, it just shows the tinyurl version instead and the descriptopn [20:00] just a suggestion :D [20:00] https://github.com/diddledan/snarfit <-- patch it and submit a pull-request :-p [20:00] https://github.com/diddledan/snarfit: diddledan/snarfit · GitHub [20:04] i'll do that if i remember/have time next week [20:37] mmm curry [20:50] if you have 14.04 installed can you tell me if you can resize your folders columns when viewing in list mode [20:51] in thunar? [20:52] isnt gnome the default? [20:52] nautilus. [20:52] well it is the default one [20:52] what channel is this? [20:52] fun reading, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2221949 (short version, you can, but it's not intuitive *when* you can) [20:52] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2221949: [SOLVED] Nautilus 14.04 Resize columns [20:54] the concept of solved for some people is interesting [20:54] " you can only resize a filed when it's next to a filed that has extra space" [20:55] heh, I'm not defending it, just bringing the convo to the point where you know as much as I do :) [20:56] sometimes even the stupid things microsoft does (not that i used win8 for instance but everyone talks badly about it) sound nothing compared to the basic failures of some functionality in linux distros [20:57] nobody makes you use gnome [20:57] difference is, you can change it. [20:57] in practice you can't [20:57] unless you fork the entire desktop [20:57] good luck maintaining that [20:58] there are two changes possible [20:58] see just talking about it opens a debate [20:58] using Windows doesn't? :) [20:58] gebbione: you can ask for a refund if you like [20:58] the easiest solution is just to not use gnome [20:58] ahahha time is not refoundable [20:58] or at the very least stop using nautilus [20:59] daftykins, so how do you browse your desktop [21:00] files system in the GUI [21:00] that's not relevant [21:00] it is for me, i am looking for a solution that does not require any customisation other than a straight forward one, at least not requiring mainteinance [21:01] so basically you want an alternative that doesn't involve changing anything? [21:01] 1) use a different file manager 2) use a different DE [21:02] install xubuntu [21:02] is there any difference between nautilus and gnome? [21:02] yes, one is a file manager, one is a desktop that includes nautilus [21:03] nautilus is also the default in unity afaik [21:03] so the alternative to nautilus would be? [21:03] which is why even in ubuntu i use thunar :-) [21:03] nemo, thunar, pcmanfm... [21:03] and to see how they look i need to install them? i guess some videos are on youtube or such [21:03] nemo is a fork of nautilus from before it jumped the shark [21:04] it's probably the best one for you, if you just want a less annoying version of nautilus [21:04] zmoylan-pi, why thunar [21:08] http://artfulrobot.com/blog/whats-best-file-manager-ubuntu-gnome-1404-trusty [21:08] http://artfulrobot.com/blog/whats-best-file-manager-ubuntu-gnome-1404-trusty: What's the best file manager for Ubuntu Gnome 14.04 Trusty? | artfulrobot.com [21:09] diddledan: hmm, i'd just have the title and not a URL repeat personally [21:17] it's small light and didn't annoy me gebbione [21:24] is it easy to downgrade to 12? [21:25] downgrades aren't supported [21:39] nemo is on [21:40] i'm gonna guess you don't mean Finding Nemo on TV [22:26] nemo? [22:27] file manager [22:27] aah [22:39] I figured the animated film, too [22:39] :D === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away [22:58] daftykins, i feel so much better now, it is unbelievable how much rubbish nautilus is in this state, from my point of view of course [22:59] i think you're being a bit too dramatic about it [22:59] and i don't even run desktop Linux, so... [22:59] not at all, if you are running 14.04 suddenly stuff is really strange [22:59] at the moment nemo fixes some of the problems [22:59] still [23:01] gnome windows in general are strange, for instance chrome you maximise/minimise from the left top when maximised or from the top right when not maximised [23:01] though you might think this is not major [23:01] simple case of running a non-native browser [23:01] in preferences check "use native window controls" or w/e [23:02] from UA it is really annoying [23:02] so configure it properly [23:02] "Use system title bar and borders" [23:02] gebbione: none of these rants of yours are going to change anything by taking place in here, take them to where they belong [23:02] alternatives, don't use chrome [23:02] yes, go tell #gnome on irc.gnome.org [23:03] ali1234, i was using chromium but that is not supported anymore [23:03] firefox is too junky imho [23:03] i don't think chrome has an irc channel. not one with developers in anyway [23:03] daftykins, for all these observations of mine there are open bugs/reports [23:04] they still mark them solved despite complaints from users [23:04] are you the minority? [23:04] yeah that's the point where i stopped using the software and started telling everyone not to use it [23:05] ali1234: what did that happen with? [23:07] unity [23:08] bug 729979 [23:08] bug 729979 in compiz (Ubuntu) "[nvidia] Windows appear blank white" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/729979 [23:09] daftykins, who is the majority of people that wants unresizable columns in windows listings? [23:09] why are you asking me? [23:10] because you are asking me if I am the minority [23:10] people who report bugs are always the majority, because most people don't know how to [23:10] i mean minority [23:10] talking to me about this isn't going to get you anywhere [23:10] I've felt for a long time (and I may be wrong), that ubuntu's target demographic are people who don't, and probably won't use ubuntu [23:11] daftykins, from that point of view your replies will not really do much with you either but at least now from talking in this channel i have trashed nautilus from something uglier that does the job [23:12] gebbione: can you run that one by me in English? [23:13] no i am sure you ll get there somehow, walking, running or anywayyou prefer [23:13] ... [23:13] i'm saying your statement didn't make sense [23:14] "your replies will not really do much with you either" 0o [23:14] nevermind, i'm gonna go do fun things like my physio [23:15] thats exactly what i mean, while my comments here will not do much neither will you telling me that i should go to complaint somewhere else ... while really i was just asking your opinion from a UA point of view [23:16] but physio is fine [23:16] i ll go too [23:16] but i am sure i ll be back with more [23:16] bear with us daftykins [23:16] bye for now and thanks for the suggestions [23:16] i do not like that user.
