[00:50] <ahayzen> popey, omg those windows support calls are hilarious, how did you record them ?
[00:50] <popey> ahayzen, it's my house phone held up against the usual mic I use.
[00:50] <ahayzen> haha
[01:12] <daftykins> hmm those are getting common!
[08:27] <brobostigon> morning boys and girls.
[08:40] <MooDoo> morning
[08:50] <brobostigon> morning MooDoo
[09:04] <davmor2> Morning all
[09:07] <MooDoo> morning davmor2
[09:07] <bashrc> morning
[09:09] <foobarry> the one from willcooke was brilliant
[09:10] <foobarry> lenny the precorded old man
[09:14] <willcooke> foobarry, I've tweaked the sounds a little:  https://soundcloud.com/willcooke/lenny-improved
[09:29] <foobarry> anybody else heard of a nouveau bug where mouse pointer flickers in certain parts of the UI
[09:29] <foobarry> i have 1 screen onboard and 1 screen nvidia
[09:30] <foobarry> the nvidia running nouveau only has this issue
[09:32] <foobarry> bug 1278223
[09:46] <bigcalm> Good morning peeps :)
[10:14] <JamesTait> Good morning all; happy Wednesday, and happy Stress Awareness Day! 😃
[10:18] <zmoylan-pi> dammit, i had just made myself forget the stress... thanks very much... :-P
[10:19] <davmor2> JamesTait: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jne9t8sHpUc I think this song covers most stressful situations nicely :)
[10:19] <JamesTait> You're welcome? 😝
[10:20] <davmor2> Ironically the song isn't Ironic
[10:22] <davmor2> JamesTait: Of course zmoylan-pi will now stress over the fact that he can't get it out of his head, but meh :)(
[10:22] <zmoylan-pi> literally no longer means literally...
[10:22] <zmoylan-pi> and they removed the word gullible from the dictionary
[10:23] <JamesTait> davmor2, but as long as he's aware that he's stressed, that's good, right?
[10:24] <davmor2> JamesTait: right that's why I made him aware first
[10:25] <davmor2> zmoylan-pi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKUQFtR6sPM
[10:25] <ali1234> you mean literally literally doesn't mean literally?
[10:27] <zmoylan-pi> literally literally means figuratively too... http://www.salon.com/2013/08/22/according_to_the_dictionary_literally_now_also_means_figuratively_newscred/
[10:32] <davmor2> zmoylan-pi: it's all because people are muppets, good is meh, bad is good, literally is figurative and and wicked is awesome and awesome is meant to be terrifying so the world language is all to pot
[10:33] <zmoylan-pi> tickety boo, just as long as don't go beyond the pale
[10:43] <popey> language evolves, get over it :)
[10:45] <MooDoo> I wish people wood talk proper like what I does.
[10:50] <JamesTait> Is anyone else seeing UI breakage in Qt4 apps under Vivid?
[10:50] <foobarry> meh...proprietary nvidia drive doesn't work at all when using 1 onboard card and 1 external
[11:52] <zmoylan-pi> bananas acquired for sandwiches for lunch...
[12:00] <popey> ooh, good idea
[12:00] <popey> I feel a peanut butter and banana sarnie coming on
[12:06]  * Laney wants nutella
[12:07] <zmoylan-pi> or i could make crisp sandwiches... king cheese and onion crisps...
[12:08]  * bigcalm wants a gin & tonic
[12:08] <zmoylan-pi> i did see that someone is selling gin and tonic crisps...
[12:09] <davmor2> bigcalm: won't that make the bread soggy?
[12:09] <bigcalm> Sod food, I want a drink
[12:09] <zmoylan-pi> after finishing a gin and tonic sandwich bigcalm won't care
[12:13] <popey> After OggCamp I don't think I need any more booze for a while
[12:13] <zmoylan-pi> that's just your liver speaking...
[12:13] <zmoylan-pi> and maybe your wallet...
[12:17] <davmor2> popey: you mean it might take a while for there to be too much blood in your alcohol stream again ;)
[12:25] <bigcalm> I spent an amazing amount of money on the Friday evening
[12:26] <bigcalm> Good food and expensive drinks
[12:26] <zmoylan-pi> what you need to do is have a fake receipt made up for a tattoo parlour and put it in drunkest persons pocket... :-)
[12:48] <diddledan> morning
[14:18] <Myrtti> this might interest someone
[14:18] <Myrtti> Kensington SD3500v USB 3.0 Universal Docking Station with Dual Video for Windows 8.1, 8, 7, XP (HDMI, DVI,VGA to 2048x1152, GB ethernet, 4 x USB 2.0, 2 x USB 3.0) https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B009JZHEVU/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_EoHowbMKMYY70
[14:20] <diplo> Best way of seeing how many users are on multiple servers on a VM? python + fabric ?
[14:23] <diddledan> diplo, for a single machine the `who` command should tell you who's logged-in?
[14:24] <bigcalm> As will `w` but with slightly different information
[14:24] <bigcalm> And then there is `last` to see who has recently been on
[14:24] <diplo> So basically we host a load of customers on a VM, 6-7 centos boxes, we just want to check how many users are on each box before rebooting without logging into each box
[14:25] <diddledan> a vm with multiple boxes? eh?
[14:25] <bigcalm> Sounds like you need a centralised remote management tool
[14:33] <diplo> :P
[14:33] <diplo> Yes you know what I meant
[14:33] <diplo> Fabric works fine, just wanted a quick and simple check
[14:33] <diplo> 4 lines of code, simples
[14:34] <Laney> damn
[14:34] <Laney> accidentally opened the door to someone selling
[14:34] <diddledan> oops
[14:34] <diddledan> I hate opening my door
[14:35] <Laney> was expecting someone
[14:35] <Laney> otherwise I would have been more cautious
[14:37] <awilkins> Is there a way to temporarily register a hostname to a particular IP address without editing /etc/hosts ?
[14:37] <awilkins> Like, I know ubuntu runs dnsmasq for name cacheing, is there a way to signal it to assign a name to an IP
[14:48] <ali1234> yeah, edit /etc/hosts
[14:48] <awilkins> That's what I did :-/
[14:48] <awilkins> Thinking on it, there are probably pretty good reasons for that
[14:49] <ali1234> you can also put config files in /etc/dnsmasq.d and then restart it
[14:49] <ali1234> but that is not very useful for hosts functionality
[15:03] <awilkins> Just a PITA to remove it after
[15:03] <awilkins> It's for resolving VMs on a bridged adapter
[15:07] <diddledan> if it's a bridged adapter you might get away with using avahi or by getting your router to save dhcp hostnames into it's resolver
[15:35] <awilkins> My router at home takes note of their name and serves the address
[15:36] <awilkins> I'm in a wifi lounge in Manchester though
[15:36] <diddledan> aah
[15:36] <awilkins> Well, pshaw
[15:36] <awilkins> It's a minor inconvenience
[15:37] <diddledan> why do my windows pcs not see any samba servers and vice versa?
[15:37] <ali1234> you can set up a DNS server for a specific domain
[15:37] <ali1234> add it to dnsmasq config
[15:37] <ali1234> and then reconfigure it however you like
[15:38] <diddledan> it seems that I have some kind of split brain - half my network are able to see each other and the other half are able to see each other but it seems that neither half can see the other half
[15:38] <diddledan> yes, ping works
[15:39] <diddledan> and yes, accessing samba from a windows via ip address also works - it's just the name resolution that seems wonky
[15:46] <diddledan> ok that's interesting. seems pings to the broadcast address are only getting 4 distinct replies (there should be more systems than that)
[15:54] <awilkins> Murdoch buys National Geographic. Murdoch fires 180 award winning journalists.
[15:55] <awilkins> *surprise*
[17:04] <diddledan> awesome bug: https://youtu.be/avwDj3KRuLc?t=1636
