| diddledan_ | oh no! humpty dumpty fell off his wall! | 03:09 |
|---|---|---|
| daftykins | diddledan_: D: not his wall! | 04:54 |
| daftykins | also you appear to have clones | 04:54 |
| diddledan | yes! his wall! | 04:54 |
| zmoylan-pi | that's just diddledan, always cloning around... | 04:55 |
| daftykins | hehe yeah, if i had a guernsey £1 note for every time... | 04:55 |
| daftykins | hmm i'm debating going down the working man's cafe when it opens at 6am for a good fry up! | 04:55 |
| zmoylan-pi | you'd have a lot of money that would take forever to spend on mainland as you'd have to explain it's real money each and every time... :-) | 04:57 |
| daftykins | it's refused :( | 04:57 |
| zmoylan-pi | i thought it was like northern ireland or scottish money, legit in england? | 04:58 |
| diddledan | don't be silly. he prints them himself | 05:00 |
| daftykins | i got roped into going to a clients' cleaners place to look at a dodgy router in a house shared by about 8 Latvian immigrant folks | 05:01 |
| daftykins | halp... | 05:01 |
| diddledan | oh dear | 05:04 |
| === zmoylan-1i is now known as zmoylan-pi | ||
| daftykins | hmm some place predicts that by 2017 SSDs will cost only 7p per GB more than HDDs | 05:15 |
| MartijnVdS | sounds about right | 05:16 |
| zmoylan-pi | i _might_ have ssd by then :-) | 05:16 |
| MartijnVdS | 1TB SSDs are €200 now | 05:16 |
| daftykins | 3D NAND has been the saviour for sure | 05:19 |
| daftykins | so Mozilla are giving Thunderbird the chop :O | 05:20 |
| zmoylan-pi | i miss hardcards... a hard disk stuck on a wafer thin daughter board wobbling over your mother board like a sword of damocles... :-) | 05:20 |
| diddledan | I want an NVMe epeen | 05:25 |
| diddledan | moar disk! | 05:25 |
| daftykins | i find it odd how i had to update that thar Surface | 05:26 |
| daftykins | still had to select to murder the old OS backup in disk cleanup, too | 05:26 |
| daftykins | do the factory reset type options do much on surfaces? | 05:27 |
| diddledan | I'm dirty | 06:09 |
| diddledan | I'm messing about with visual studio | 06:09 |
| daftykins | D: | 06:10 |
| daftykins | never played with surface wiping options then, sir? | 06:10 |
| diddledan | nope | 06:10 |
| daftykins | your kitchen must be a bacteria playground! ;D | 06:11 |
| diddledan | :-p | 06:11 |
| zmoylan-pi | it hardens the immune system... and they have shares in andrex... :-P | 06:12 |
| MooDoo | hello all | 09:04 |
| davmor2 | Morning all | 09:05 |

| brobostigon | morning boys and girls. | 09:46 |
| bashrc_ | g'day | 09:47 |
| daftykins | o/ | 09:48 |
| brobostigon | morning bashrc_ and daftykins | 09:48 |
| daftykins | no sign of the posties :( | 09:49 |
| brobostigon | :( | 09:50 |
| MooDoo | daftykins: waiting for goodies? | 09:51 |
| daftykins | mmhmm | 09:52 |
| daftykins | an SSD that was on amazon's deals, a Nexus 5 LCD from China and more | 09:54 |
| Myrtti | I was impressed by the speed the Moto360 made its way from China | 09:59 |
| Myrtti | I think we ordered it on Thursday evening and it arrived yesterday | 09:59 |
| daftykins | free shipping off ebay here, so it said 1-17 December | 10:03 |
| JamesTait | Good morning all; happy Wednesday, and happy International Day for the Abolition of Slavery! 😃 | 10:27 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: not exactly slavery but I think the sentiment is right https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AgcTvoWjZJU | 10:47 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: and then there is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UH1CMCtV4to which is a slavery people don't mind so much ;) | 10:48 |
| Myrtti | I can't remember the name of the pdf annotation app that I used years and years ago... gah | 10:58 |
| davmor2 | Myrtti: foxit/okular/xournal/evince all do it off the top of my head | 11:03 |
| Myrtti | xournal, thassit | 11:03 |
| Myrtti | I don't think evince does any | 11:04 |
| davmor2 | Myrtti: https://help.gnome.org/users/evince/stable/annotations.html.en | 11:06 |
| davmor2 | Myrtti: just not so pretty | 11:06 |
| davmor2 | Myrtti: glad to be of help anyway :) | 11:07 |
| Myrtti | ah right | 11:08 |
| Myrtti | thank you | 11:08 |
| awilkins | IME Okular is the best Linux PDF viewer that does annotations | 11:16 |
| awilkins | The evince annotations are done in an external file and don't translate to Adobe's PDF reader | 11:16 |
| awilkins | Okular annotations are done in the standard PDF/A way and do carry over | 11:16 |
| davmor2 | awilkins: personally I think pdftk is the best ;) | 11:24 |
| davmor2 | awilkins: xournal is the same iirc | 11:25 |
| awilkins | Xournal is a PDF viewer? | 11:25 |
| awilkins | And pdftk is Windows only AFAICT | 11:26 |
| Myrtti | doctor's wants some of my papers and I needed to translate them a bit, so annotations it is | 11:26 |
| davmor2 | awilkins: sudo apt install pdftk it was on linux first ;) | 11:27 |
| awilkins | Those wags at PDF Labs | 11:28 |
| davmor2 | awilkins: it's a cli tool that uses cat seriously you think that was a windows only tool :) | 11:28 |
| awilkins | I think combined media notetaking apps are sadly deficient, TBH | 11:28 |
| awilkins | But I don;t have a coherent plan to improve them without thinking hard about it | 11:28 |
| davmor2 | awilkins: I think most of the tutuorials you find online are windows only cause linux users know how to read man pages and use --help :) | 11:29 |

| foobarry | wow, good guy zuckerburg | 13:31 |
| === alan_g|lunch is now known as alan_g | ||
| * SuperEngineer notices his name must be in code in Zuckerburg's letter as it's not mentioned specifically- supposes he doesn't want to embarrass me | 13:42 | |
| foobarry | people need to stop using foo | 13:44 |
| foobarry | found a file /tmp/foo with 2 different logs in | 13:44 |
| foobarry | somebody did a blah > /tmp/foo | 13:44 |
| foobarry | somebody else did a script that opened /tmp/foo and wrote more stuff | 13:44 |
| SuperEngineer | would you rather they used /tmp/barry foobarry? | 13:45 |
| foobarry | yes | 13:45 |
| SuperEngineer | ;-) | 13:45 |
| davmor2 | they could use foobar | 13:57 |
| foobarry | its all naughty | 13:57 |
| foobarry | use proper file names in production | 13:58 |
| davmor2 | foobarry: no | 13:58 |
| foobarry | :0 | 13:58 |
| davmor2 | foobarry: the issue is lots of people just copy paste the examples from the internet without thinking I'll call the file x.log instead of foo | 13:59 |
| foobarry | this was a script written inhouse | 14:00 |
| foobarry | not sure if my biggest gripe is that foo is undescriptive as a log name, or is common so might get splatted by another unimaginative person | 14:01 |
| diplo | Bit of nboth probably foobarry | 14:07 |
| diplo | -n | 14:07 |
| diplo | You would hate to see all our internal and customer servers, you'd probably scream ( i do :D ) | 14:12 |
| foobarry | been screaming a lot already today | 14:18 |
| foobarry | ny NFS server is extremly slow | 14:45 |
| foobarry | like bytes/sec instead of 1Gb/s | 14:45 |
| foobarry | something is afoot | 14:45 |
| diplo | I've never got on with NFS, then again not used it in years | 14:46 |
| diplo | Always had issues with speeds | 14:46 |
| MooDoo | I use NFS for my storage/backup solutions, it seems ok for what I want until I just get a single NAS and remove all my servers | 14:51 |
| foobarry | gonna use async option | 14:52 |
| diplo | bigcalm: hadn't checked on letsencypt for a while, ta fanx | 15:02 |
| diplo | Set up and ready to try tomorrow night :) | 15:02 |
| SuperMatt | my website is signed by let's encrypt | 15:06 |
| SuperMatt | I found a bug in it, submitted a patch, and then got it accepted :) | 15:06 |
| SuperMatt | it didn't like TLDs longer than 6 characters, but with the new TLDs, they can be as long as 63 | 15:07 |
| SuperMatt | .digital was just too longer for LE until I came along ;) | 15:07 |
| diplo | Good man :) opensource in action | 15:07 |
| SuperMatt | I was dead proud of myself :) | 15:10 |
| SuperMatt | it's a shame it's still in closed beta, but it's quite easy to find the form | 15:10 |
| diddledan | m00 | 15:12 |
| diddledan | it goes public tomorrow afaik | 15:13 |
| foobarry | how do i know if my nfs mount is async or sync? | 15:14 |
| foobarry | doesn't want to tell me | 15:14 |
| diplo | yup it does, at 6pm on the 3rd GMT | 15:14 |
| SuperMatt | if it doesn't tell you, it's the default | 15:14 |
| SuperMatt | which you could probably find by running "man mount.nfs" | 15:14 |
| foobarry | yeah, nothing there | 15:15 |
| * diddledan still messing in MS Visual Studio >.< | 15:15 | |
| diddledan | it's actually not bad | 15:15 |
| SuperMatt | foobarry: man nfs might tell you | 15:16 |
| davmor2 | diddledan: don't make me get out of this chair..... | 15:16 |
| SuperMatt | I think it's in async mode | 15:16 |
| SuperMatt | "If neither sync nor async is specified (or if the async option is specified), the NFS client..." | 15:16 |
| diddledan | davmor2, I hear that. sitting ftw | 15:16 |
| SuperMatt | which suggests async is the default | 15:17 |
| foobarry | i was just reading that bit | 15:17 |
| foobarry | doesn't look like async is my problem then | 15:17 |
| SuperMatt | have you tried doing cat /etc/mtab? | 15:18 |
| SuperMatt | that should expand all the options beyond just their defaults | 15:18 |
| SuperMatt | though I could be wrong | 15:18 |
| foobarry | rw,relatime,vers=4.0,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,namlen=255,hard,proto=tcp,port=0,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,clientaddr=192.168.42.15,local_lock=none,addr=192.168.42.21 0 0 | 15:18 |
| foobarry | win 9 | 15:18 |
| SuperMatt | I'm almost certain async is the default | 15:19 |
| SuperMatt | but you've moved on past that, obviously | 15:19 |
| diddledan | oh dear, that global-ish message doesn't sound fun | 15:50 |
| diddledan | "appears a hub went boom"!! | 15:51 |
| SuperMatt | they're pretty quick kon the notification there | 15:55 |
| SuperMatt | 10 minutes it's very good | 15:55 |
| diddledan | indeed. very good response for a volunteer effort | 15:56 |
| daftykins | wussat? | 15:57 |
| diddledan | daftykins, freenode is broke | 15:58 |
| diddledan | daftykins, someone lost a hub | 15:58 |
| daftykins | ah | 15:59 |
