[05:55] yup [05:55] what does gchq mean then? [05:56] cant find any result from google translate [05:56] gchq is the british equivalent [05:56] oh [05:56] i see [05:57] i have to go back to work [05:57] glad to talk to you [05:57] well take care o/ [05:57] ttyl [05:57] bye o/ [05:57] and trust me on firefly, father ted, blackbooks [05:57] :-) [05:57] without any doubt [05:58] :-) [07:02] morning boy and girls. [07:03] * zmoylan-pi squints out window and questions the use of the description morning... === kbingham is now known as kbingham_fn [09:01] Morning all [09:03] morning and afternoon [09:42] howdy all === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte [10:03] Good morning all; happy Tuesday, and happy Area Code Day! 😃 [10:05] http://news.slashdot.org/story/15/11/09/1748237/us-spends-1bn-over-a-decade-trying-to-digitize-immigration-forms-just-1-is-online [10:05] $500M initial budget to digitize paper forms [10:06] My company is spending an order of magnitude less to establish twin datacentres capable of handling 3PB of genetic data. [10:06] Truly, the pork barrel runneth over in the USA [11:03] JamesTait: I know an area code song from rush hour 2 iirc not sure I can paste it in such a polite channel though :) === Oli is now known as Guest12380 [12:50] i'm beginning to work out why sony is in trouble.... http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/nov/10/betamax-dead-long-live-vhs-sony-end-prodution [13:11] hi zmoylan-pi [13:11] ;] [13:15] o/ [13:18] how could i block all gambling sites and make it so i cant access them [13:18] im serious [13:24] Edit /etc/hosts and change all the domains to 127 ? [13:24] Block them via your router if it has that option [13:24] but i can then change it mysellf [13:25] But you have to physically do it, which should work with you alerting yourself [13:26] If you're going to change it, I'd go to see a hypnotherapist, gammbling anonymous or something along those lines if you don't have the will power and you're in charge of your machine / router you obviously don't have the self will to not do it and get around your circumventions [13:26] Those things are not bad things, just giving options [13:27] I had a member of staff who couldn't stop visiting certain sites so I did the hosts thing on his windows machine, just having the block there was enough for him to understand it had become an issue [13:27] yea [13:33] could you change it so router blocks it and give the password to a mate so you can't undo it? [13:40] mapps, ask the sites you visit to do self-exclusion [13:42] i try but always un self exclude [13:42] get help [13:59] I know this is an ubuntu channel but... :D I want to download the EPEL CentOS 4 packages to have as a backup, yes I know it is EOL [14:00] Normal option would be to use rsync, but that's not supported on 4 packages [14:00] How would anyone else do it, wget mirror ? [14:01] no idea, never used centos, so no idea how packages are served [14:01] :) - I'd rather not :) [14:02] Read on other repos that wget is actively discouraged but no other option apart from rsync/reposync which doesn't work :P all good fun [15:34] is anyone currently seeding my steamos fork, stephenson's rocket? i have a new release i need to switch seeders onto [15:35] directhex: I think I might be [15:36] bigcalm was [15:37] directhex: do you have the magnet link handy? I can add it to my torrent box [15:38] magnet:?xt=urn:btih:e282ac4fb18dbfae2e0be7a83411c7d47101b694&dn=StephensonsRocket2.49plus1.iso&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.openbittorrent.com%3A80&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fopen.demonii.com%3A1337&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.coppersurfer.tk%3A6969&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.leechers-paradise.org%3A6969 [15:38] but BW will stink until i can get it seeded by a few people [15:38] * bigcalm looks in due to email notification. Sup? [15:39] it's steamos release day! so i made a stephenson's rocket refresh [15:39] bigcalm: how do you get irc emails? [15:39] directhex: I haven't recently seeded it. Happy to do so again though. Got the torrent link? [15:39] bigcalm: it's fastest for you to grab via http then seed, IME [15:40] diddledan__: I use away proxy for irssi [15:40] directhex: k [15:40] diddledan__: irssi proxy away [15:40] although i'm pushing 2mb up! unprecedented! [15:40] aah [15:40] directhex: site url? [15:40] Something about a horse? [15:40] diddledan__: irssi as a proxy rocks :) [15:41] bigcalm: horsebattlerystaple? [15:41] --l [15:41] wasn't kidding about unprecedented, i never push more than 100k on torrent uploads from my desktop. BT throttles i assume [15:41] directhex: have you got another web link to snatch it and boost the torrent? [15:42] damn google drive that was supposed to be a public link [15:42] https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0RgGqWAMEw8VWJMUVc4SXZ1UFU/view?usp=sharing [15:42] grab it before google cuts me off :x [15:43] Got it! [15:44] my ratios are pretty awesome on there: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hb083u74k1k1p37/Screenshot%202015-11-10%2015.43.58.png?dl=0 [15:46] i shall seed until i need some bandwidth ;D [15:46] since windows 10's autumn update comes out today [15:46] it does? [15:46] mhmm [15:48] * bigcalm pauses the seeding of Ubuntu Mate 15.10 [15:50] xbox one win10 upgrade on thursday! [15:50] indeed 8D [15:50] i'm wondering how big it'll be [15:50] so people can panic on friday \o/ [15:51] Back to work I go, toodles [15:51] i bet it'll be like patch tuesday, comes out 9am Seattle time so takes until 6pm UK [15:52] got one more person onto ubuntu last weekend. Some initial grumbling, but once they realized they could still use the same apps they were ok with it [15:53] they can't have used much then [15:53] whenever there is a Windows disaster I always use that to try to get people onto ubuntu [15:54] no, I'd class them as a basic user. Email (thunderbird) firefox and a working printer and they were done [15:54] oh so they didn't use anything non-native [15:54] * zmoylan-pi is giving vivaldi browser a spin and not hating it... [15:54] you put them on LTS so they don't have to experience the more regular ubuntu disasters? :) [15:55] zmoylan-pi: give ubuntu-browser a go :) [15:55] i think i tried that at one point... [15:55] I did put them on LTS [15:56] with automatic security updates enabled [15:57] ^_^ === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away [17:12] Hmm trying out hexchat so far looks and feels the same as xchat :) [17:13] just more updated so i hear! [17:14] indeed and supported [17:14] you want irssi with green text on a black background so you can irc in the dark wearing a balaclava for maximum daily mail hackerness ;-) [17:14] zmoylan-pi: no I don't [17:14] lmao [17:15] I'm using hexchat these days [17:16] popey: you using any plugins or just vanilla? [17:17] nope [17:17] didnt know it had any [17:18] popey: well there is indicator for a start :) and then there is the plugins package which I haven't looked at yet :) === alan_g is now known as alan_g|EOD [18:13] flash. just die already. https://threatpost.com/adobe-flash-update-includes-patches-for-17-vulnerabilities/115322/ [18:19] I simply don't install it these days [18:20] diddledan: you can't kill flash how will lazy advert writers make money without it ;) [18:20] The other thing I want to die is Java in browsers [18:20] But alas, I need it for IPMI [18:22] :( [18:24] lol: https://twitter.com/Sidragon1/status/664143917051285504 [18:30] anyone remember how you move a window to a certain number? [18:32] context = irssi ? === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte [18:39] yes [18:40] ahh gotit [18:40] /window move 10 [18:40] :D [18:41] czajkowski: if you've not already, i didn't know that one but "/layout save" is a neat one for keeping a set order [18:48] daftykins: aye so I've tried [18:48] but somewhere in my evil config it has me joining to rooms [18:48] o0 [18:48] and no matter my editing it still autjoins me to them [18:49] how rude! [18:50] I know! [18:50] there are channels really I don't want to go bac kto [18:50] i never learnt the command set in irssi, i just manage my joins by editing the config directly XD [18:50] but irssi seemingly does === webpigeon_ is now known as webpigeon [20:18] czajkowski: /channel list [20:18] /channel add -noauto #channel [20:21] czajkowski: well if you will go to these channels you will attract the wrong kinda attention :D [23:02] Myrtti: ohh thank you [23:03] 23:02 -!- Irssi: Not enough parameters given [23:04] /channel add -noauto #channel network [23:05] ahh [23:05] Myrtti: you're amzing thank you [23:06] i'm sure that was in the manual :) [23:07] not really [23:07] yes [23:07] well, kinda, but you need to know how to read the manual [23:08] if you're referring to /help channel [23:08] wow there was still autojoins from my canonical time [23:08] Just had a mint aero. That was nicer than I thought [23:08] wow that is super useful thank you Myrtti [23:10] Myrtti: one more question, is there a way to also remove the list of channels from /channel list [23:11] the ocd tidy kicks in [23:11] so they're removed from autojoin but still show up on list [23:11] doing the command above should do it [23:12] /channel list is a list of channels you've got configured [23:12] not necessarily a list you've got autojoins for [23:13] ahh I see [23:15] if you want them totally gone, /channel remove #channel network [23:15] don't forget to /layout save and /save [23:17] nods
