daftykins | jokes on him, i have to sleep early 8D | 01:20 |
wileee | new user, big dreams, probably really young, heh, one here everyday lately, suppose I had some dream at one time | 01:21 |
daftykins | :D | 01:22 |
wileee | funny picture and story, grew up around this town, http://www.kgw.com/story/news/local/2015/11/12/4-masked-bandits-caught-newport-ore-art-gallery/75653184/ | 01:28 |
TJ- | amazing! my reverse-engineered installshield archive decompressor works first time | 05:11 |
* wileee waits for the user with single install always wanting grub vs the no grub match | 05:11 | |
wileee | heh, cool | 05:11 |
TJ- | I always get GRUB so I forget about how it can be invisible | 05:12 |
wileee | yeah me to | 05:12 |
wileee | it does a lot, I know maybe 1% | 05:12 |
wileee | I can read though if needed | 05:13 |
TJ- | With mine the LUKS pass-phrase or key-file device needs attaching | 05:14 |
wileee | ah, I've jsut been multibooted, limited computers so all on a couple. | 05:14 |
wileee | got my acer d250 mini as the backup, heh. | 05:15 |
TJ- | I dug out 2 notebooks I've had since 2002 this week; going to get them fired up again :) | 05:22 |
TJ- | made me realize how software devs have squandered memory and CPU cycles. Those used to perform better then, than many current PCs do with latest software | 05:24 |
lotuspsychje | good morning to all | 05:27 |
TJ- | morning, damn! | 05:27 |
lotuspsychje | TJ-: hey mate :p | 05:27 |
TJ- | I was supposed to go to bed before midnight | 05:27 |
lotuspsychje | doing overtime again | 05:27 |
TJ- | Programming is too adictive :) | 05:27 |
lotuspsychje | TJ-: do you program also? | 05:28 |
TJ- | That's how I started out, writing machine code and assembly language back in 1980 :) | 05:28 |
lotuspsychje | what languages | 05:29 |
TJ- | most over that time | 05:29 |
lotuspsychje | me and my brother fooled around with BASIC, but thats about it :p | 05:30 |
TJ- | I prefer close to the metal, so C and C++, but I've done some big Java systems. | 05:31 |
lotuspsychje | cool | 05:31 |
lotuspsychje | ICT is such wide spectrum plenty ways fro every talent | 05:32 |
lotuspsychje | morning OerHeks | 05:33 |

lotuspsychje | hey daftykins :p | 12:28 |
daftykins | what film did we see? :D | 12:32 |
lotuspsychje | 10 things i hate about you | 12:38 |
lotuspsychje | old college comedy | 12:38 |
lotuspsychje | http://news.softpedia.com/news/is-that-ubuntu-touch-or-ubuntu-desktop-the-answer-is-both-496123.shtml | 12:40 |
daftykins | :) | 12:47 |
lotuspsychje | they all ZZzzzZZ in #ubuntu | 12:48 |
daftykins | it is a strangely quiet day! | 12:49 |
daftykins | just ordered in a £160 IPS 2560x1440 27" HannsG display last night for someone | 12:51 |
lotuspsychje | nice | 12:51 |
daftykins | they also want to drive it from a really cheap laptop, so i've just spotted a basic looker... http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00Y0LWQAW ;) | 12:51 |
lotuspsychje | looking good | 12:52 |
daftykins | weird it only has one DIMM slot, so 8GB RAM max! D: | 12:53 |
lotuspsychje | can always add ssd later | 12:54 |
daftykins | indeedy | 12:55 |
daftykins | i saw a cheap HP on another site, to get RAM in you had to take the whole thing apart O_O | 12:55 |
lotuspsychje | yeah i had one the same to change a cmos battery | 12:55 |
lotuspsychje | even screen had to come off | 12:56 |
daftykins | >_< | 12:56 |
lotuspsychje | bbl | 13:55 |
pauljw | Hi everyone | 14:32 |

pauljw | good daftykins thanks. you? :) | 14:54 |
daftykins | yep all good here ta :) just digging into a clients email issue | 14:55 |
pauljw | fun | 14:56 |
daftykins | EriC^^: o/ | 16:03 |
daftykins | i always feel our 'customers' have such warped perceptions of what 'broken' 'doesn't work' and fix' mean | 16:03 |
EriC^^ | yeah that's true | 16:03 |
* daftykins is an overthinker ;) | 16:07 | |
EriC^^ | i think you're pretty practical | 16:09 |
EriC^^ | i've been learning a shit load of magic tricks | 16:13 |
ioria | hi. anyone knows where the ubuntu log of yestarday is ? i can't find here http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2015/11/12/ | 16:16 |
daftykins | the 7th was missing the other day too, when OerHeks looked i think? | 16:18 |
daftykins | i reckon there's a coverup going on :D | 16:19 |
ioria | thanx | 16:19 |
EriC^^ | lol | 16:19 |
OerHeks | Yes, last log was the 11-3 ? | 16:27 |
ioria | it misses from 3/11 to 12/11 | 16:28 |
daftykins | well Eczan was a complete idiot | 17:37 |
TJ- | did I miss something :D | 17:39 |
daftykins | guy asked which kernel to pick during a server install, i said i wasn't sure of any time you're asked that during server installs... eventually he gets so worked up that i'm claiming he's 'lying' he leaves saying he'll get help elsewhere | 17:44 |
daftykins | all in his own head O_O | 17:44 |
TJ- | weird | 17:48 |
TJ- | 'purple screen' certainly sounds like the Plymouth splash screen | 17:49 |
TJ- | It's about time we started charging a 'frustration deposit' ! | 18:00 |
daftykins | :D | 18:00 |
TJ- | it's true - some skin on the table usually makes people think first :) | 18:01 |
daftykins | "i have problems but you're not allowed to see... here's a darkened room, there are no lights... tell me what this object is" | 18:01 |
TJ- | oh ... and you can't touch it | 18:01 |
daftykins | so in other news i've gone into the business of extracting blood from stones | 18:09 |
daftykins | i have no idea what you do in situations where a system has somehow been using funky partitions the whole time :D | 18:12 |
TJ- | it may be corruption; it may even be misreporting somehow... I've simulated this by creating a large HBA on a disk *after* it was partitioned - and some PC manufacturers hide their Windows recovery images in an HBA | 18:19 |
TJ- | regardless of the partition, the ext* tools will read the metadata and superblock to tell us if the file-system instide matches any of the partition dimensions we can see or deduce | 18:20 |
daftykins | Vizio TVs were in the news recently for having a policy where they sell what you watch to marketing :) you have to opt out! | 18:47 |
TJ- | Doesn't surprise me; folks have allowed themselves to become the product by using all those 'free' web applications like Google, Facebook, et al | 18:48 |
daftykins | :D | 18:49 |
daftykins | they can be pretty impressive though! | 18:49 |
daftykins | i'm starting to think it's spaghetti bolognese time | 18:49 |
TJ- | Already making it here :) | 18:51 |
daftykins | i tried something new and cooked two portions of mince at once, so tonight will just be heating up | 18:51 |
daftykins | that bellflower has one funky disk alright | 18:52 |
TJ- | I often make large stews that last 1/2 a week :) | 18:52 |
daftykins | ah, see i've been very hesitant toward this 'leftovers' approach | 18:53 |
daftykins | it's very alien to me | 18:53 |
TJ- | it's not leftovers, that implies scraps. It's efficient production! | 18:54 |
daftykins | true :> | 18:55 |
daftykins | looks like another one i didn't catch due to assuming their setup again! | 18:56 |
TJ- | It's the whole 'incomplete data' issue - in-person you pick up a lot of stuff simply by looking. With remote support you have no context at all, so you've got to specifically identify everything | 18:59 |
DosTuMai | If I make more, means I eat more. Not a good thing because I hate seeing food sit there. | 18:59 |
daftykins | heh | 19:04 |
* daftykins helps out with that | 19:05 | |
TJ- | You need to learn self-control :) | 19:05 |
DosTuMai | Once cooked 3 days worth of food. Felt like it was a waste to leave it sitting there. Ate the lot. | 19:06 |
DosTuMai | OCD doesn't help with that. Food is for eating. | 19:06 |
DosTuMai | Main reason I like to stick with Gnome classic. | 19:08 |
daftykins | true, no food in that DE | 19:09 |
TJ- | ffs! bellflower! I'm off for dinner, can't take any more | 19:09 |
daftykins | XD | 19:10 |
daftykins | me too, RUN whilst the going's good! | 19:11 |
Pici | OerHeks: fyi, ubottu doesn't do channel logs, thats ubuntulog's job. | 20:38 |
OerHeks | Pici, oh oke, we were missing some logs lately, today is running. | 20:38 |
Pici | yeah, I think it might have been a netsplit related problem | 20:39 |
