DosTuMai | Seasons greetings to you, too. =] | 13:32 |
lotuspsychje | DosTuMai: thank you ; ) | 13:36 |
DosTuMai | I missed wishing everyone a blessed solstice on 22nd, so a belated to one and all. =] | 13:37 |
lotuspsychje | DosTuMai: what does that mean blessed solstice | 13:44 |
lotuspsychje | a feast our country dont know? | 13:44 |
DosTuMai | It's an astronomical event: The winter solstice is the longest day of the year. | 13:44 |
lotuspsychje | ah | 13:45 |
DosTuMai | Summer is the shortest. Then there's the equinox in spring & autumn/fall where the day & night are the same length. | 13:45 |
lotuspsychje | DosTuMai: and you guys celebrate that? | 13:45 |
DosTuMai | I'm in England and don't celebrate Christ's mass. | 13:46 |
lotuspsychje | ah ic | 13:48 |

lotuspsychje | lol | 13:55 |
DosTuMai | Could swap places if you want, cfhowlett. It's nasty and seasonal everywhere in England. | 13:55 |
cfhowlett | UK? eh, thanks but no ... | 13:56 |
DosTuMai | lotuspsychje: Madness is doing seasonal things, so he wont be on air. But if we're lucky - Wiggles will cover his slot and do a mix show. | 15:00 |

lotuspsychje | tnx tnx | 18:00 |
daftykins | i'm totally filled with food and just sat back on a sofa at my parents with the dogs snoring around me :) | 18:03 |
DosTuMai | Wait... (Quit: = Ubuntu 14.04.3 64bit Samsung SSD EVO 840=) <-Ubuntu on a Samsung phone? =o | 18:05 |
nicomachus | nah he's just bragging about his SSD | 18:05 |
DosTuMai | Oh, oki. | 18:05 |
OerHeks | 'just' an EVO, not PRO | 18:05 |
daftykins | :) | 18:06 |
daftykins | i always found those forums where people state the spec of their PCs to be really quite sad | 18:07 |
nicomachus | haha, never venture onto http://reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace then | 18:08 |
nicomachus | or /r/linuxmasterrace, for that matter... | 18:08 |
DosTuMai | https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xfl1/v/t1.0-9/12369251_438331863039250_7693074436485259730_n.jpg?oh=9aa7bca07a43f26891283d7a6c7f1720&oe=57139FA9 | 18:08 |
daftykins | nah i can't stand reddit at all as a concept, it's full of people with... *gasp* OPINIONS! | 18:09 |
nicomachus | lol | 18:09 |
daftykins | bad enough on here ;) | 18:10 |
DosTuMai | Opinions are like assholes: everyone has one, and it's not nice to flash them in public. | 18:10 |
daftykins | 'xactly! | 18:12 |
BluesKaj | there's nothing wrong with opinions as long as they're expressed as opinions and not promoted as facts | 18:23 |
DosTuMai | True. But some people don't get that. | 18:24 |
nicomachus | well... I downloaded some tracks on soundcloud and have no idea where they decided to call home... | 18:27 |
DosTuMai | Time to search! xD | 18:28 |
nicomachus | been doin! | 18:28 |
DosTuMai | And it'll be in a hidden directory for some unknown reason. | 18:28 |
nicomachus | shoulda gone to ~/Music... but didn't. | 18:29 |
Bashing-om | On hold for Christmas dinner ~ | 19:00 |
daftykins | i have to admit, checking out the download process for Fedora is much nicer than Ubuntu's - https://getfedora.org/en_GB/server/download/ | 19:02 |
slidinghorn | Just a quick pop-in to say hello and Merry Christmas to those who are celebrating today! Off to my sister's for the festivities :) | 19:02 |
daftykins | fully https experience, then once you click through you have verify methods right there on the page | 19:03 |
daftykins | slidinghorn: merry christmas and enjoy o/ | 19:04 |
daftykins | keep safe out there :) | 19:04 |
slidinghorn | will do, thanks | 19:04 |
OerHeks | yeah, keep on the https side | 19:05 |
nicomachus | I don't really see the benefit of of SSL on the ubuntu site... no personal info ever goes through there, does it? | 19:06 |
nicomachus | what need is there for encrypting traffic? | 19:06 |
OerHeks | maybe ... some say 1 billion users come there | 19:07 |
daftykins | well i can see the point, however weak it is - and it's not like it'd be much effort to change | 19:09 |
daftykins | the page you're on after downloading ubuntu server is rubbish compared with the fedora one, where you get shown verify hash info as just one click away | 19:10 |
DosTuMai | Also, you can embed malicious software in a file that's being downloaded. If you catch someone at the right time to redirect the d/l/ | 19:11 |
DosTuMai | That's what they were talking about in #ubuntu, but there's really no point because Linux users are generally smart enough to look at checksums before installing. | 19:15 |
daftykins | i don't agree there, the distro is meant to be for newbies | 19:16 |
daftykins | so it should all be right from the start | 19:16 |
DosTuMai | True, but MITM attacks are so rare, it's a non-issue. Especially with Linux distros. | 19:17 |
daftykins | *nod* very tinfoil hat really | 19:23 |
DosTuMai | I bet he looks at contrails and screams, "ILLERMINATTI!!!!!!11!!!1!one1!" | 19:24 |
* daftykins installs fedora server in a VM | 19:28 | |
DosTuMai | xD | 19:29 |
daftykins | 606 packages downloaded | 19:31 |
DosTuMai | I am Red Hat/Fedora scum. xD | 19:32 |
BluesKaj | Bilderberg for you | 19:35 |
daftykins | weirds me out that Fedora pushes xfs as the standard fs | 19:36 |
DosTuMai | I want to ask LJSeinfeld the person's name so I can try converting them to Pastafarianism. | 19:39 |
DosTuMai | I'm not too sure why they use XFS over standard, Daftykins. | 19:40 |
daftykins | i use it on a clients 24TB file server | 19:41 |
daftykins | meant to be good for larger fewer files | 19:41 |
DosTuMai | That could be the reason. I used to run Suse on my servers. >_> | 19:43 |
daftykins | i had to use CentOS in Uni | 19:46 |
daftykins | yum yum yum | 19:46 |
DosTuMai | Yah, it's odd switching and going yum. xD | 19:47 |
daftykins | though i understand even that's replaced now? | 19:49 |
daftykins | i don't usually dare try other distros 'cause i don't fancy the new package manager head ache :P | 19:49 |
DosTuMai | It is? I haven't used any other flavours for years. xD | 19:49 |
daftykins | yeah definitely heard something new came along | 19:50 |
daftykins | dnf | 19:50 |
DosTuMai | Hmm, oki. *Waddles over to g00gle.* | 19:50 |
daftykins | i found - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/ReplaceYumWithDNF | 19:51 |
daftykins | "Notice that upgrading F21 to F22 will not cause the compat package to be installed so will not disturb any upgrading users." | 19:52 |
daftykins | maybe that's relevant | 19:52 |
DosTuMai | Yah, looks like you'd need to `yum|dnf` with older installs. | 19:53 |
daftykins | DosTuMai: did you see my pic of working on that samsung in the end? i forget | 19:55 |
DosTuMai | Nope, but that would be pornographic! D= | 19:56 |
DosTuMai | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahlWufJqcSQ | 19:58 |
daftykins | https://www.dropbox.com/s/d4cycurzc11p65o/IMG_20151224_181821.jpg?dl=0 | 19:58 |
daftykins | you know you want to see! :P | 19:59 |
DosTuMai | Oh my, I'm all hot under the collar. =o | 19:59 |
DosTuMai | That's not the worst screen I've ever seen. | 20:00 |
daftykins | i think my mate has some action shots of me working on it | 20:00 |
DosTuMai | Really should upload a few more videos to youtube. | 20:01 |
DosTuMai | Gah, Coldfront is experiencing netsplits again. | 20:02 |
daftykins | :< | 20:02 |
daftykins | wow - what is all this - a web management UI O_O | 20:08 |
DosTuMai | Most Fedora users use it for web servers. | 20:09 |
daftykins | https://www.dropbox.com/s/vh6df33rr0rd3rt/fedora.png?dl=0 | 20:10 |
daftykins | i bet this net install is a chunky monkey | 20:10 |
daftykins | 1.3GB used, not bad | 20:11 |
DosTuMai | Be going to bed in hour. | 21:02 |
daftykins | 10pm!? that's early | 21:08 |
daftykins | early start tomorrow? | 21:08 |
DosTuMai | Yah, trains and busses will get me to work far too late tomorrow. | 21:09 |
DosTuMai | So, I'm gonna have to get up at 0400 so I can get to work on time. | 21:11 |
DosTuMai | My travels to work tomorrow will start at 0530, so I need time to digest breakfast. | 21:12 |
daftykins | >_< | 21:12 |
DosTuMai | There was some holiday thing on this week, so trains that I normally catch aren't starting until 2hr _after_ I start work tomorrow. | 21:24 |
daftykins | you getting any extra pay for being in on a hol? | 21:29 |
DosTuMai | Pfft, you're kidding, right? It's not a bank holiday. | 21:30 |
daftykins | i don't even | 21:30 |
DosTuMai | Welcome to work as a CSA. | 21:31 |
daftykins | custard sauce admin | 21:31 |
DosTuMai | Pretty much. | 21:32 |
DosTuMai | Unappreciated, get shouted at by idiots, and given unreachable targets. | 21:33 |
DosTuMai | I'm supposed to handle an average 21.5 calls/hour. | 21:33 |
daftykins | oy | 21:33 |
DosTuMai | I'm close - 16.2 - but not close enough. Fuck you, Argos. | 21:34 |
daftykins | some bloke mentioned working for umm, rackspace, i saw some interesting Linux jobs on their site | 21:35 |
daftykins | not favoured ends of England though :P | 21:35 |
DosTuMai | They're in my neck of the woods IIRC. | 21:36 |
DosTuMai | Oop noorth lahk, lad. | 21:39 |
daftykins | XD | 21:45 |
DosTuMai | And I'm a southern fairy. I was raised in Berkshire. xD | 21:46 |
daftykins | i used to tease a dude i was at Uni with (Portsmouth) for being northern, he was from there ;) | 21:47 |
daftykins | can't get further south than me other than being on Jersey (and still be British) | 21:47 |
DosTuMai | xD | 21:48 |
