lazyPowerwow, that was back when you had to do the wine schenanigans04:19
lazyPowerthat or the lokii installer, i forget04:19
pleia2they had a linux installer, but to install the umod packs you needed to use the script that was hard to find04:19
pleia2and it was lame without the umod packs, so04:20
lazyPowersoudns about liek any pc game ever, the mods make the community04:20

lazyPowercuz ya know, openstack = private infrastructure for errbody04:22
pleia2oddly I know fewer and fewer canonical folks at the summit these days04:22

lazyPowerbecause boxes  + lines = interesting stories04:25
pleia2I liked the juju powered ice cream at the hong kong ODS04:25
pleia2it was clever and fun04:26
lazyPowermeanwhile, we see those charms and think "What a terrible way to explain what we do"04:26
pleia2lol04:26
lazyPoweri mean, at its core, basic foundation, sure04:27
lazyPower"I want strawberry"04:27

lazyPowerwe figured this crap out early04:28
lazyPowermy parents never did figure it out, and hated working. all 60 years of it04:28
lazyPoweri'm like "nope"04:29
lazyPower"not gonna do that"04:29
pleia2I just got lucky04:29
lazyPowerthats a fair assessment, in many regards i did too04:29
pleia2I like linux and open source, and it turns out people want to pay me to work on it, score04:29
lazyPowerbut we shouldn't negate the work we put in to get here either04:30
lazyPoweri mean, just 4 short years ago i was a pool boy04:30
pleia2indeed, a lot of work04:30
lazyPoweryou've got quite the impressiev back story, when i did my "internet research" on you while in belgium there's a lot on google04:30
lazyPoweryou're an absolute power house in the community04:31
pleia2much of which I did for free because <304:31
lazyPoweraannndd creepiest statement tonight goes to me for admitting i did research on you04:31
pleia2hahah04:32
pleia2it's less creepy when you admit to it04:32
lazyPowerphwew04:32
lazyPoweri admit it, creeper reduction level 204:33
pleia2lol04:34
rmg51Morning09:20
JonathanDMorning.11:44
JonathanDSo hey, uh, pleia2... could you throw me a retweet? :D11:44
teddy-dbearMorning peoples, critters and everything else12:16
WorkingTurkeywaltman: i have several cigar ideas in the making13:15
ChinnoDogWhy is it so complex to get the bell working in Ubuntu? I finally got the audible bell working on my laptop but still can't figure out why it won't play through my ssh session.15:40
waltmanChinnoDog: because linux15:41
ChinnoDogWeren't terminal specifications created to fix things like this?15:42
waltmanI don't know, but I do know that's what the visual bell in screen was created to fix :)15:43
ChinnoDogIt is an in interesting solution to the problem but of limited usefulness. I want to send the bell character not just so I can hear the bell on my terminal but also so its window can blink.15:44
ChinnoDogThe first problem was that alsa didn't have a sound sample to play for the bell. I don't think I have a PC speaker so that is the only way for it to play.15:45
waltmanThat's exactly what screen's visual bell does.15:45
waltmanwait, a sound sample?15:46
ChinnoDogIt flashes the terminal window but it won't cause it to flash in the GUI.15:46
ChinnoDogI want it to get my attention if I don't have the terminal window up15:46
ChinnoDogYes, a sound sample so that the bell works locally.15:46
waltmanOh, I thought you wanted to beep the internal bell, e.g. like this: echo '\a'15:47
waltmanI'm very confused.15:47
ChinnoDogIt is the same thing.15:47
waltmanthat doesn't use a sound sample!15:47
ChinnoDogIt may play to the PC speaker but it also gets intercepted by alsa15:48
ChinnoDogI don't have a PC speaker so if it plays there I wouldn't know.15:48
ChinnoDogIf you install the sound sample for the bell into also then it will play through the sound card.15:48
ChinnoDogI remember opening a Packard Bell desktop once and finding that the sound card had a jumper on it for connecting the PC speaker output from the motherboard so it would always play through the sound card. I thought that was clever. I wish it were wired like that.15:50
waltmanI thought the pc speaker and the sound card were separate things. But my linux box is getting on 10 years old, so maybe things have change.15:52
waltmanAnyhow, I don't know the answer to your question, so I'll just be quiet now.15:52
ChinnoDogThey are separate things but modern computers don't have a PC speaker. They saved 4 cents and left it out.15:52
ChinnoDogThat is why connecting the PC speaker output to a sound card input was clever. I'm sure the PC speaker I/O port still exists in the chipset. It just isn't connected to anything.15:53
jthanmy case speaker is still there and works fine15:53
jthanand that's my workstation at work... which I got two weeks ago15:54
ChinnoDogMost desktops still have them because motherboard manufacturers frequently put surface mount speakers directly onto the desktop motherboards.15:54
ChinnoDogIf they added a full sized 8 ohm speaker to the case for you then I guess it is a frill.15:55
ChinnoDogAnyway, I digress! I can't beep over an SSH session!15:57
WorkingTurkeyyeah16:24
WorkingTurkeyxset +b16:24
WorkingTurkeyright?16:24
ChinnoDogI already did that.16:46
ChinnoDogSomehow I've made it work but I don't know how.16:46
ChinnoDogI can now play the beep character in weechat and the sound plays locally.16:47
ChinnoDogapparently the beep command does not beep. I can "echo -e \\a" to test it though.16:48
ChinnoDogNow I just have to figure out how to get the visual bell to work in Unity.16:49
lazyPoweryou could always pipe that through notify-osd16:51
ChinnoDogHow do I do that?16:54
lazyPowerhttp://askubuntu.com/questions/161851/how-do-i-use-notify-send-to-immediately-replace-an-existing-notification16:55
lazyPowerthat answer is a bit overkill16:56
lazyPowerjust notify-send will work16:56
ChinnoDogI don't know how to execute it when I receive a terminal beep though.16:57
JonathanDI really need a notification on my laptop for irssi.16:58
ChinnoDogActually, maybe I should just install Terminology.16:58
lazyPowerhttps://weechat.org/scripts/source/anotify.py.html/16:59
lazyPowerseems like someone already did it for you16:59
lazyPoweranything in this list that requires libnotify is a candidate for working with notify-osd17:00
lazyPowerhttps://weechat.org/scripts/stable/tag/notify/17:00
ChinnoDogIt wIt would have to work over ssh though17:00
lazyPowerah17:00
lazyPoweri didnt see that part17:01
lazyPowerthats tricky17:01
