| magespawn | no just the colours and such of the text etc | 10:34 |
| captine | hi all | 10:36 |
| Kilos | hi captine | 10:36 |
| Kilos | i grfeeted you early i think | 10:36 |
| Kilos | greeted | 10:36 |
| captine | isnt irssi console based? I think i recall trying it as I wanted to be permanently on irc from a digitalocean droplet... but i like pictures :) | 10:37 |
| captine | Kilos, sorry, my machine is on as long as Eskom provides power | 10:37 |

| Kilos | hahaha | 10:38 |
| magespawn | hi captine, yes cli based | 10:38 |
| magespawn | you do need time out | 10:39 |
| captine | any preference here for nginx over apache2? stuggle to get my head around nginx configs.... | 10:40 |
| captine | Kilos, how's the bazaar usage going? | 10:40 |
| Kilos | hmm... | 10:41 |
| Kilos | bazaar usage? | 10:41 |
| captine | I almost proposed it at work for managing IBM Cognos Rule Files, but am pretty swayed to GIT, due to it's massive uptake. | 10:41 |

| magespawn | i thought apache was the standard | 10:42 |
| captine | it is... | 10:42 |
| captine | but nginx seems to be very light and fast | 10:42 |
| Kilos | its becoming a static thingie and who knows what else | 10:42 |

| captine | based site | 10:48 |
| captine | not sure if it is 100% plain html and css, or if there was going to be something using a markdown type tool | 10:48 |
| magespawn | superfly has generated the static site using nikola | 10:49 |
| magespawn | http://getnikola.com/ it uses restructured text | 10:50 |

| Kilos | hi thoquz | 12:47 |
| Kilos | welcome to ubuntu_za | 12:47 |
| thoquz | Hey, thanks. | 12:50 |
| Kilos | first time here hey? | 12:59 |
| Kilos | tell us about yourself and if you need help state your prob and someone will advise | 13:00 |
| Kilos | advize | 13:00 |
| Kilos | that thing | 13:00 |
| thoquz | No problems so far, I'm running Xubuntu 14.10 64bit at the moment until the next release of elementry OS. | 13:01 |
| Kilos | ah you like elementary? | 13:06 |
| Kilos | i think its quite lekker | 13:07 |
| thoquz | I'll tell a little more about myself, let me know if I talk too much as I am unsure what you specifically meant by your question. I'm from the Western Cape, just finished matric, so now I'm taking a gap-year to decide what I want to study. I was going to do a internship at a computer security company this year, when I applied I received very promising feedback, yet it seems I made my decision to join them a day or two too late | 13:08 |
| thoquz | as the position was already taken. | 13:08 |
| Kilos | aw | 13:08 |
| Kilos | shop around you might find another one | 13:09 |
| Kilos | or join our mailing list and ask if there is anything going with all them peeps | 13:10 |
| Kilos | http://bit.ly/MCOujZ | 13:11 |
| Kilos | and then theres hetzner that takes interns as well i think | 13:11 |
| thoquz | There's another company that I should still contact that might take me in, they are more hardware based. I am a electronics hobbyist and recreational programmer. I love working with embedded systems, such as Texas-instrument's 16bit MSP430 series, I also design and do circuit board layout. | 13:13 |
| thoquz | As for what my plans of studying are after the gap-year, I recently discovered UCT's "computer engineering" program that seems to have interesting subjects. | 13:14 |
| thoquz | I'm on a few mailing lists such as the Cape Town python user group, Stellenbosch Linux user group and OWASP | 13:15 |
| Kilos | cool | 13:19 |
| Kilos | and where is a ububuntu list | 13:40 |
| Kilos | hmm... | 13:40 |
| Kilos | everyday there is someone here that needs help | 13:42 |
| Kilos | namely me | 13:42 |
| thoquz | I'll try, what seems to be the problem today? | 13:44 |
| Kilos | today im ok too tired to fight things | 13:49 |
| Kilos | magespawn you winning? | 13:51 |
| Kilos | you supposed to greet new peeps when im asleep | 13:52 |
| Kilos | Maaz coffee on | 13:53 |
| * Maaz washes some mugs | 13:53 | |
| inetpro | Kilos: you don't have to fight | 13:53 |
| inetpro | hi thoquz | 13:53 |
| inetpro | welcome to #ubuntu-za | 13:54 |
| thoquz | Thanks inetpro | 13:54 |
| Kilos | thoquz he is one of our big guns here | 13:56 |
| Kilos | cant program or anything he says but fixes everything | 13:57 |
| inetpro | Kilos: don't come with stories now | 13:57 |
| Maaz | Coffee's ready for Kilos! | 13:57 |
| Kilos | Maaz ty | 13:57 |
| Maaz | You are welcome Kilos | 13:57 |
| thoquz | So I'm guessing you're a sysadmin? Are you two employed by the same company? | 13:58 |
| inetpro | no | 13:58 |
| Kilos | oh inetpro i seem to somehow have lost all my saved stuff on nikola and the bazaar thing | 13:58 |
| inetpro | Kilos: you see | 13:58 |
| * inetpro told him he needed a backup strategy | 13:59 | |
| Kilos | ya the backup thing | 13:59 |
| Kilos | no man i saved it somewhere and forgot where | 13:59 |
| inetpro | Kilos: you have a folder called ~/Projects ? | 13:59 |
| Kilos | oh ya | 13:59 |
| Kilos | and should be a file for nikola and bzh or m or whatever | 14:00 |
| Kilos | maybe i was on another drive | 14:00 |
| Kilos | bzr? | 14:00 |
| Kilos | bad head day | 14:01 |
| inetpro | ai! Sorry oom | 14:01 |
| inetpro | thoquz: just stick around and try to help where you can and you'll make it far | 14:01 |
| Kilos | inetpro keep ears open for a job for him | 14:02 |
| thoquz | Yeah, at the moment the conversation seems to lack context so I'm a bit confused at all the references to names. | 14:02 |
| Kilos | there were some with the dbnlug peeps but they wanted experienced peeps with programming stuff as well too | 14:03 |

| bushtech | oops sorry, mine is down | 14:17 |
| inetpro | that was with the antenna connected but I failed to get a consistent good signal | 14:18 |

| inetpro | thoquz: have you used git or bzr before? | 14:35 |
| thoquz | Yeah, I use git | 14:35 |
| inetpro | cool | 14:35 |
| inetpro | some people still prefer bzr over git | 14:36 |
| thoquz | Yeah, I'm pretty neutral to software choices, I'll use the first thing that works, if someone requires me to use another tool for the job I won't mind unless it requires a major time investment, I'm getting tired of software wars causing stagnation and preventing innovation. | 14:39 |
| inetpro | good point | 14:39 |
| inetpro | hmm... | 15:41 |

| Kilos | lol | 17:19 |
| Kilos | only the quassel hopping | 17:27 |
| superfly | hi Kilos\ | 18:00 |
| Maaz | superfly: By the way, magespawn on freenode told me "tell superfly thanks" 1 day, 57 minutes and 27 seconds ago | 18:00 |
| captine | embarrased to say I am going to use SMB shares instead of NFS... Just cannot mount the nfs share..... | 18:15 |
| superfly | captine: NFS is WAY easier than SMB, what's your issue? | 18:26 |
| captine | i have a openmediavault server with an nfs share... trying to mount it times out... | 18:26 |
| captine | the smb works no prob | 18:26 |
| captine | i will spend some time in the future to sort it. Just trying to organize the folders for now | 18:26 |
| captine | so smb will be ok | 18:26 |
| captine | I beleive NFS works much better for network drops etc... | 18:27 |
| captine | which will be what i need it for :) | 18:27 |
| Kilos | night all. sleep tight. see ya tomorrow | 18:34 |
| thoquz | Goodnight | 18:36 |
| superfly | captine: I could never get SMB working properly | 18:38 |
| superfly | captine: NFS, on the other hand, was simple | 18:38 |
| captine | :). seems to be the other way for me. The shares on on a web frontend of openmediavault (debian based distro). Unity just browses the network and mounts the folder when i click it. | 18:39 |
| captine | no command line at the moment | 18:39 |
| captine | needed | 18:39 |
| magespawn | right bed time, good night all | 20:33 |
