[05:18] morning superfly inetpro and others [05:30] Morning Kilos [06:09] mornings [06:31] hi thatgraemeguy [06:57] good morning [07:02] power gone [07:02] wbb [07:11] it came again back [07:12] Kilos: Are there regular power outages there? [07:12] yeah zipper , but not so bad last few months [07:12] Man SA isn't what I thought it was. Zuma really screwing you guys it seems. :( Africa not rising. [07:13] power peeps are catching up with their maintenance schedule [07:13] Kilos: I thought you exported power and had nuclear plants (which I'm against). [07:13] Kilos: Oh I see [07:13] Nothing to do with the government. [07:13] yes we have one nuke station which has been going for many years trouble free [07:14] its all the coal stations that were left unmaintained and nothing done on planned new stations for many years that dropped us into shortage mode [07:15] a well maintained nuclear station is safe [07:16] Maaz when was koeberg power station built [07:16] Kilos: Not a clue, sorry [07:16] ai! [07:16] Maaz google when was koeberg power station built [07:16] Kilos: "Koeberg Nuclear Power Station - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koeberg_Nuclear_Power_Station :: "Koeberg Power Station - Eskom" http://www.eskom.co.za/Whatweredoing/ElectricityGeneration/KoebergNuclearPowerStation/Pages/Koeberg_Power_Station.aspx :: "The Koeberg Experience - Eskom" [07:16] http://www.eskom.co.za/Whatweredoing/ElectricityGeneration/KoebergNuclearPowerStation/TheKoebergExperience/Pages/The_Koeberg_Experie… [08:01] hi Kilos [08:01] hi magespawn [08:17] Mornings [08:22] hi mazal [08:42] good mornings [08:42] hi inetpro [08:43] oh and hi oomKilos [08:43] Kilos: we had 44mm last night [08:43] 24mm inetpro [08:43] you win again [08:44] eh magespawn, did you have rain as well? [08:44] sounded wonderful on the roof at 1 am though [08:44] I see people talking about rain in the Freestate as well... very happy if that is the case [08:44] lots of thunder as well [08:45] im sorry for farmers this year [08:46] not many will make ends meet [08:46] a very, very tough time for farmers indeed... at least many of them [08:46] now govt wants a say in farmers dams water as well [08:46] say it must be shared [08:47] sigh [08:48] I noticed that in the news as well, sending a very wrong message loaded with petty politics [08:50] even if it was well intentioned to address very real challenges [08:50] ys [08:51] farers built their own dams to water crops and stock and carry them through dry years [08:51] if thats taken away goodbye farmer [08:53] when I heard that last night the idiom that came to my mind was, 'To kill the Goose That Laid the Golden Eggs' [08:53] yip [10:11] wb thatgraemeguy [10:13] oh, i left [10:13] thanks i guess :D [11:01] inetpro: 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 [11:03] Kilos as i understand it the government already has a say in what you do with water, via one of the acts [11:03] you have to get permits for borholes, dams, or diverting of water etc. [11:07] Kilos i am going to be trying Peppermint 6, a little later on [11:18] yes inetpro you are right [11:19] but theyve said nothing so far about this borehole [11:19] let us know what its like resource wise [11:19] sorry that was for magespawn [11:19] unhappy head today [13:56] cool will do Kilos [13:56] chat later all, home ime [13:56] time [13:56] exit [15:22] boom boom [15:24] Listening to you're boom boom beats, Kilos? [15:24] haha [15:24] I started up my server, but I didn't realise that it sounds like a jet engine [15:25] it can boom boom all day and night as long as water falls as well [15:25] the drive? [15:27] The fans [15:27] Hey smile [15:27] hi smile [15:28] hi :p [15:28] hi :D [15:28] how are you both doing :D [15:28] I am well thanks and yourself? [15:28] as we choose and you? [15:29] How do you choose? [15:29] I'm good, "learning" for my exams :) [15:30] What are you writing? [15:30] i choose to do as little as possible [15:30] Haha [15:30] Quite lazy, hey? :P [15:30] yip [15:32] Kilos: but you should earn money! :o [15:33] easier said than done [15:33] I earned ticket complements cheques for a value of €90 :D [15:33] all online, Kilos ;) [15:33] thats all above me [15:33] im not 17 [15:34] How do you earn money online? :o [15:34] besides showing off your naughties [15:35] gremble: surveys! :D [15:35] Haha [15:35] hundreds of them actually [15:38] Alright, I got debian to boot. [15:59] Alright, the server box is connected to the laptop with an ethernet cable and the laptop is connected to the internet via wifi and a router [15:59] so, how do I make the laptop share a address to the server so that I can connect to the internet with it? [16:00] I've tried link-locak on both IPv4 and 6 and a "Shared to other computers" whatever that may mean [16:14] i did that shred route and it all worked [16:14] share [16:15] somewhere in the server you need to tell it i think [16:15] dunno how via cli [16:15] try all those funny commands [16:16] um [16:16] route -n [16:16] and many others but youll need the clever peeps help [16:16] traceroute [16:17] and maybe you need to do a domain name server thing in the laptop [16:17] 8.8.8.8 [16:18] or look for conflict [16:18] i forget all that [16:23] gremble can they ping each other [16:23] you might need to set ip addresses [16:24] or use the dhcp auto setting [16:41] I don't want the laptop to assign ip adresses, because the router is alread doing that [16:56] Now I need help from some greybeards xD [17:30] you need to point out who you need to help you or they all just lurk [17:49] night all. sleep tight [19:08] good evening [19:10] Hey inetpro [19:10] Perhaps you could help me. I have a dell poweredge here that I am trying to install debian on [19:10] eh gremble, ok and? [19:11] I 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] This machine only has two drives on it [19:11] the raid device is raid1 [19:11] which do I partition? [19:12] yikes! [19:12] I suspect that the two physical drives are the components of the raid1 [19:13] logically, you would probably want to use the raid partition if all is set up correctly [19:13] raid 1 = mirroring [19:13] Yes [19:13] that is why I assumed that. I just wanted conformation from someone cleverer than I [19:13] :P [19:14] obviously you end up losing a drive with this kind of setup [19:14] cleverer? hmm... [19:15] It 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 with [19:15] you need to do your mathematical risk calculation to determine your options [19:15] Haha [19:15] I did. [19:16] cool :-) [19:16] How are you [19:19] good, good and there? [19:21] If I can get the networking between my laptop and server worked out, absolutely fantastic [19:22] what is your laptop running on? [19:22] Arch linux [19:22] and the router is what? [19:22] direct link [19:22] at the moment [19:22] ADSL? [19:23] Yes. 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 wifi [19:23] ideally I would like the server to be able to connect to the internet through the laptop [19:23] but it is not playing nice [19:24] hmm... [19:25] can't you get a small switch? [19:25] Nope. What I have right now is all that I have [19:25] or can't you connect the server directly with cable to the router? [19:25] In the past I have been able to connect my PC to the internet through my laptop [19:25] No, not at the moment [19:26] should be relatively easy to do but just want to understand why first [19:27] Becuase moving the server would require massive amounts of effort and I just want to play with it first [19:27] so it is here now. and the router is quite far away [19:27] normally I would want a server to be connected to the router and then connect clients to the internet via the server [19:27] I am the only client so it is alright :P [19:28] it will just be serving me [19:28] I want to toy around with virtualisation on a machine that is slightly stronger than my antiquated laptop [19:28] ohi [19:28] hey superfly [19:28] sure thing, was just saying, typically you would want a server to run proxy caching etc.... [19:28] gremble: docker [19:29] it's almost the same as virt without the overhead and the hardware nonsense [19:30] ohi superfly [19:30] hi inetpro [19:30] * inetpro likes the new stickynotes project [19:31] I just want to play with my toy that I discovered this morning. I will move it tomorrow then :P [19:47] inetpro: I have to rename it :-( [19:47] some guy made a pastebin clone (in php, ugh!) called Sticky Notes [19:47] oops really, why? [19:47] ai! [19:47] just when I started to like the name :-( [19:48] yeah [19:49] so how do we find a nice new unique name? [19:52] You think up a name and then google it [19:53] superfly: how about binbucket? [19:53] too close to bitbucket [19:54] :-) [19:54] flypaper? [19:54] It sticks [19:54] and it has your name in it [19:54] haha [19:54] hahaha [19:54] And some people think I am just a pretty face... [19:58] am not sure about the word paper in the name but the slogan would would be nice, "FlyPaper, It Sticks!" [19:58] s/would// [20:04] bye :) [20:04] bye smile [20:04] good night all :) [20:05] I'm trying to think of something like Code Bucket or Log Bin or something [20:16] log drop [20:17] Hhah
