diddledan__ | another rocket going-up at 01:29 - this one from spacex and they're going to attempt another landing, this time back at launch site rather than a barge : http://www.spacex.com/webcast/ | 20:30 |
diddledan__ | the video hasn't started yet tho | 20:31 |
penguin42 | I wonder why they decided not to go with the barge this time; a barge sounds like a much better place to land stuff | 20:31 |
diddledan__ | penguin42: less moving target :-p | 20:32 |
diddledan__ | that's a guess tho | 20:32 |
diddledan__ | I don't know the answer | 20:32 |
penguin42 | pity, their barges had nice names | 20:34 |
* daftykins is playing with Server 2012 R2 and Hyper-V for a job at his old College | 20:35 | |
daftykins | damn it's horrible :P | 20:35 |
diddledan__ | heh | 20:39 |
zmoylan-pi | they're running out of barges? :-P | 20:40 |
diddledan__ | yeah, torpedoing them doesn't help | 20:41 |
zmoylan-pi | pesky nasa zeros? :-) | 20:41 |
diddledan__ | yeah. that and weirdo decimal points. and weirdo conversions between feet and cm | 20:42 |
diddledan__ | when working for nasa, always remember to not carry the 1 | 20:42 |
zmoylan-pi | we should all switch to smoots... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoot | 20:42 |
diddledan__ | I like that teh googs does smoots | 20:48 |
daftykins | diddledan__: i think you just had a seizure mid-sentence there | 20:50 |
diddledan__ | lol | 20:50 |
zmoylan-pi | no no 'e's trying to be hip, down and cool with the kids :-) | 20:51 |
daftykins | i had him pegged for doing a voice artist try out for the chef on the muppets | 20:53 |
zmoylan-pi | der smooty booty dooty? | 20:54 |
daftykins | ho-hoo, careful with that talk around here ;) | 20:54 |
zmoylan-pi | minds in the gutter... | 20:55 |
diddledan__ | haha | 20:55 |
daftykins | i'll have you know i was expecting you to steal the last booty we plundered | 20:55 |
diddledan__ | der smooley doodey | 20:56 |
diddledan__ | ^ what my nephew is good at! | 20:56 |
daftykins | i was about to suggest my cat had a paw in that one | 20:56 |
diddledan__ | pooley. dats der smooley doodey! | 20:57 |
diddledan__ | don't you love that the web was invented to facilitate the end of the world research (nuclear bombs) | 20:57 |
diddledan__ | (that's what cern is all about, right?) :-p | 20:58 |
daftykins | makes me a tad con-cern'd | 20:58 |
zmoylan-pi | it's what the cats would have wanted... :-) | 21:01 |
diddledan__ | well when we nuke ourselves to oblivion, the radiation will help the cockroaches to attain sentience | 21:02 |
zmoylan-pi | i thought lawyers were sentient? | 21:02 |
diddledan__ | lol: https://twitter.com/meganamram/status/678688132640825344 | 21:33 |
daftykins | this is hilarious, to manage this Server 2012 R2 system i need a *second* one to put the management tools on | 21:47 |
zmoylan-pi | so when poop hits the fan you need 2 working systems to fix things... brilliant... :-) | 21:50 |
diddledan__ | daftykins: you can put the management tools on a normal windows | 21:54 |
daftykins | they advise against SCVMM being on the Hyper-V host | 21:55 |
daftykins | so yeah a client console could be on a normal OS, but then SCVMM they talk about being on a VM (which is lulzworthy) or on another host | 21:55 |
diddledan__ | daftykins: http://blogs.technet.com/b/canitpro/archive/2015/09/03/rsat-tools-for-windows-10.aspx looks like you need pro though | 21:55 |
diddledan__ | oh scvmm | 21:56 |
diddledan__ | dang | 21:56 |
zmoylan-pi | piddly little toy oses... :-) | 21:56 |
diddledan__ | wait, you put the management console in a machine that it's managing? | 21:56 |
daftykins | yeah XD | 21:56 |
diddledan__ | inception! | 21:56 |
daftykins | sounds like eggs and baskets eh? | 21:56 |
zmoylan-pi | if it's a small installation it *should* be an ok thing to do... | 21:57 |
daftykins | zmoylan-pi: and yep, i'd like to take them off windows server but would likely have an uphill battle from their own IT support department :( | 21:57 |
penguin42 | daftykins: Drop them into having win server as a guest under KVM ? | 21:57 |
* zmoylan-pi remembers running company mail server on windows 95 plus our office wiki. till it was all replaced with a small business server install that failed a few times per week... | 21:58 | |
zmoylan-pi | such a terrible os | 21:58 |
daftykins | well the use-case is my old College, where groups of 12-16 students at a time (a class) would be setting up VMs to learn OS installs as part of a full Windows domain, and/or Linux and Windows desktop OSs | 21:59 |
daftykins | i know what was on this big chunky server with oodles of RAM when i taught there 5 years ago, but i'm not sure if it's changed | 21:59 |
daftykins | i would likely want to switch to running a free education license of vmware instead | 21:59 |
daftykins | server becomes a drone box, maximise the use of resources on it instead of some silly Windows Server product... then just one client program at the other end to manage it | 22:02 |
zmoylan-pi | that windows 95 server also held a bigfoot drive i found for all our office 'media'... such a faithful little server... :-) | 22:02 |
diddledan__ | haha, spain's "Popular Party" has won the election. That's a great name, like the "Tooting Popular Front" | 22:03 |
zmoylan-pi | and not the peoples popular party...? | 22:03 |
daftykins | XD | 22:03 |
diddledan__ | nor the popular people's party | 22:03 |
penguin42 | oh, they've delayed the launch | 23:30 |
penguin42 | https://j.mp/1UT9kB2 | 23:30 |
zmoylan-pi | they're waiting for lemon soaked napkins to be delivered? | 23:30 |
penguin42 | yes | 23:30 |
