zipperMan SA isn't what I thought it was. Zuma really screwing you guys it seems. :( Africa not rising.07:12
Kilospower peeps are catching up with their maintenance schedule07:13
zipperKilos: I thought you exported power and had nuclear plants (which I'm against).07:13
zipperKilos: Oh I see07:13
zipperNothing to do with the government.07:13
Kilosyes we have one nuke station which has been going for many years trouble free07:13
Kilosits all the coal stations that were left unmaintained and nothing done on planned new stations for many years that dropped us into shortage mode07:14
Kilosa well maintained nuclear station is safe07:15
KilosMaaz when was koeberg power station built07:16
MaazKilos: Not a clue, sorry07:16

Kiloslots of thunder as well08:44
Kilosim sorry for farmers this year08:45
Kilosnot many will make ends meet08:46
inetproa very, very tough time for farmers indeed... at least many of them08:46
Kilosnow govt wants a say in farmers dams water as well08:46
Kilossay it must be shared08:46
Kilossigh08:47
inetproI noticed that in the news as well, sending a very wrong message loaded with petty politics 08:48
inetproeven if it was well intentioned to address very real challenges08:50
Kilosys08:50
Kilosfarers built their own dams to water crops and stock and carry them through dry years08:51
Kilosif thats taken away goodbye farmer08:51
inetprowhen I heard that last night the idiom that came to my mind was, 'To kill the Goose That Laid the Golden Eggs'08:53
Kilosyip08:53
inetprowb thatgraemeguy10:11
thatgraemeguyoh, i left10:13
thatgraemeguythanks i guess :D10:13
magespawninetpro: we have had a little here, about 70mm in the one storm, a little more since then, but it has not made any difference yet 11:01
magespawnKilos as i understand it the government already has a say in what you do with water, via one of the acts11:03
magespawnyou have to get permits for borholes, dams, or diverting of water etc.11:03
magespawnKilos i am going to be trying Peppermint 6, a little later on11:07
Kilosyes inetpro you are right11:18
Kilosbut theyve said nothing so far about this borehole11:19

Kiloshaha15:24
grembleI started up my server, but I didn't realise that it sounds like a jet engine15:24
Kilosit can boom boom all day and night as long as water falls as well15:25
Kilosthe drive?15:25

grembleI am well thanks and yourself?15:28
Kilosas we choose and you?15:28
grembleHow do you choose?15:29
smileI'm good, "learning" for my exams :)15:29
grembleWhat are you writing?15:30
Kilosi choose to do as little as possible15:30
grembleHaha15:30
grembleQuite lazy, hey? :P15:30
Kilosyip15:30
smileKilos: but you should earn money! :o15:32
Kiloseasier said than done15:33
smileI earned ticket complements cheques for a value of €90 :D15:33
smileall online, Kilos ;)15:33
Kilosthats all above me15:33
Kilosim not 1715:33
grembleHow do you earn money online? :o15:34
gremblebesides showing off your naughties15:34
smilegremble: surveys! :D15:35
grembleHaha15:35
smilehundreds of them actually15:35
grembleAlright, I got debian to boot.15:38
grembleAlright, the server box is connected to the laptop with an ethernet cable and the laptop is connected to the internet via wifi and a router15:59
grembleso, how do I make the laptop share a address to the server so that I can connect to the internet with it?15:59
grembleI've tried link-locak on both IPv4 and 6 and a "Shared to other computers" whatever that may mean16:00
Kilosi did that shred route and it all worked16:14
Kilosshare16:14
Kilossomewhere in the server you need to tell it i think16:15
Kilosdunno how via cli16:15
Kilostry all those funny commands16:15
Kilosum16:16
Kilosroute -n16:16
Kilosand many others but youll need the clever peeps help16:16
Kilostraceroute16:16
Kilosand maybe you need to do a domain name server thing in the laptop16:17
Kilos8.8.8.816:17
Kilosor look for conflict16:18
Kilosi forget all that16:18
Kilosgremble can they ping each other16:23
Kilosyou might need to set ip addresses16:23
Kilosor use the dhcp auto setting16:24
grembleI don't want the laptop to assign ip adresses, because the router is alread doing that16:41
grembleNow I need help from some greybeards xD16:56
Kilosyou need to point out who you need to help you or they all just lurk17:30
Kilosnight all. sleep tight17:49
inetprogood evening19:08
grembleHey inetpro 19:10
gremblePerhaps you could help me. I have a dell poweredge here that I am trying to install debian on19:10
inetproeh gremble, ok and?19:10
grembleI am at the partitioning bit now and somewhat confused. The disk selection is giving me 3 drives, a raid device and two ata drives. 19:11
grembleThis machine only has two drives on it19:11
gremblethe raid device is raid119:11
gremblewhich do I partition?19:11
inetproyikes!19:12
grembleI suspect that the two physical drives are the components of the raid119:12
inetprologically, you would probably want to use the raid partition if all is set up correctly19:13
inetproraid 1 = mirroring19:13
grembleYes19:13
gremblethat is why I assumed that. I just wanted conformation from someone cleverer than I19:13
gremble:P19:13
inetproobviously you end up losing a drive with this kind of setup19:14
inetprocleverer? hmm...19:14
grembleIt is fine for now. I will probably do this a couple of times before the server konks out. I picked it up for R600 to play with19:15
inetproyou need to do your mathematical risk calculation to determine your options19:15
grembleHaha19:15
grembleI did. 19:15
inetprocool :-)19:16
grembleHow are you19:16
inetprogood, good and there?19:19
grembleIf I can get the networking between my laptop and server worked out, absolutely fantastic19:21
inetprowhat is your laptop running on?19:22
grembleArch linux19:22
inetproand the router is what?19:22
grembledirect link19:22
grembleat the moment19:22
inetproADSL?19:22
grembleYes. but that is out to the internet. The server is connected to the laptop with an ethernet cable, the laptop is connected to the router with wifi19:23
grembleideally I would like the server to be able to connect to the internet through the laptop19:23
gremblebut it is not playing nice19:23
inetprohmm...19:24
inetprocan't you get a small switch?19:25
grembleNope. What I have right now is all that I have19:25
inetproor can't you connect the server directly with cable to the router?19:25
grembleIn the past I have been able to connect my PC to the internet through my laptop19:25
grembleNo, not at the moment19:25
inetproshould be relatively easy to do but just want to understand why first19:26
grembleBecuase moving the server would require massive amounts of effort and I just want to play with it first19:27
grembleso it is here now. and the router is quite far away19:27
inetpronormally I would want a server to be connected to the router and then connect clients to the internet via the server 19:27
grembleI am the only client so it is alright :P19:27
grembleit will just be serving me19:28
grembleI want to toy around with virtualisation on a machine that is slightly stronger than my antiquated laptop19:28
superflyohi19:28
gremblehey superfly 19:28
inetprosure thing, was just saying, typically you would want a server to run proxy caching etc....19:28
superflygremble: docker19:28
superflyit's almost the same as virt without the overhead and the hardware nonsense19:29
inetproohi superfly19:30
superflyhi inetpro19:30
* inetpro likes the new stickynotes project19:30
grembleI just want to play with my toy that I discovered this morning. I will move it tomorrow then :P19:31
superflyinetpro: I have to rename it :-(19:47
superflysome guy made a pastebin clone (in php, ugh!) called Sticky Notes19:47
inetprooops really, why?19:47
inetproai!19:47
inetprojust when I started to like the name :-(19:47
superflyyeah19:48
inetproso how do we find a nice new unique name?19:49
grembleYou think up a name and then google it19:52
inetprosuperfly: how about binbucket?19:53
superflytoo close to bitbucket19:53
inetpro:-)19:54
grembleflypaper?19:54
grembleIt sticks19:54
grembleand it has your name in it19:54
inetprohaha19:54
superflyhahaha19:54
grembleAnd some people think I am just a pretty face...19:54
inetproam not sure about the word paper in the name but the slogan would would be nice, "FlyPaper, It Sticks!"19:58
inetpros/would//19:58
smilebye :)20:04
gremblebye smile20:04
smilegood night all :)20:04
superflyI'm trying to think of something like Code Bucket or Log Bin or something20:05
MaNIlog drop20:16
grembleHhah20:17
