[00:06] <diddledan> where'd everyone go?
[00:10] <zmoylan-pi> they're off checking their attics for their old sleds and toboggans
[00:50] <popey> is it supposed to snow?
[00:54] <zmoylan-pi> cold snap on thursday for some parts of uk and ireland
[00:56] <popey> oh
[00:56] <popey> cool
[01:20] <diddledan> the iplayer just advertised something at me, "a bbc iplayer original"
[01:20] <popey> yeah
[01:20] <popey> heard about a thing - comedian guy what's his name
[01:20] <diddledan> when did they start doing that?
[01:20] <popey> Frank Skinner, that's it.
[01:20] <popey> recently
[01:21] <popey> his thing is even worse, it's a chat show _about_ iplayer
[01:21] <popey> or the things people watch
[01:21] <diddledan> this was for "the rack pack"
[01:21] <diddledan> some drama about snooker
[01:22] <zmoylan-pi> what you want is a long documentary on snooker commentary...
[01:22] <popey> ooooh and that's a bad miss
[01:22] <zmoylan-pi> on radio...
[01:22] <daftykins> for those watching in black and white, the pink is behind the red
[01:23]  * zmoylan-pi remembers that one
[01:24] <daftykins> my dad told me of it :D
[01:24] <zmoylan-pi> the whole class knackered because we had all stayed up till 2am watching the snooker including the teacher
[01:24] <daftykins> i enjoy playing pool but watching it? noooo
[01:25] <zmoylan-pi> hugely popular back in 80s
[01:27] <zmoylan-pi> as was cycling, marathons and other sports that barely make the news these days

[09:20] <MooDoo> howdy all
[09:27] <davmor2> The power of MooDoo, who do? you do, do what? remind me of the babe
[09:28] <davmor2> I've been saving that one up just for you dude ;)
[09:32] <MooDoo> davmor2: well it put a smile on my face :D
[09:34] <davmor2> MooDoo: It's all part of the service, I do charge extra for happiness though ;)
[09:39] <MooDoo> cheque is in the post mate :)
[09:43] <davmor2> MooDoo: Dude, c'mon not that old china, at least go with dog ate my cheque book I'm waiting for a new one ;)
[09:46]  * davmor2 receives an image from MooDoo of a picture of a man infront of a czech flag
[09:52] <foobarry> wow.
[09:53] <foobarry> just ran vlc on a machine without realising -X wasn't on my session. got batman in ascii art
[09:53] <foobarry> didn't realise that was a feature
[10:00] <JamesTait> Good morning all; happy Wednesday, and happy Skeptics Day! 😃
[10:09] <knightwise> Whow
[10:11] <knightwise> thats cool
[10:13] <zmoylan-pi> i'm doubtful of that...
[10:18] <foobarry> it was useful
[10:18] <foobarry> the file was called .m4v and i didn't know what film it was. colleague and I figured it out
[10:18] <foobarry> by squinting from the other side of the room
[10:27] <zmoylan-pi> i suppose you have to watch the matrix at least once as ascii art... :-P
[10:27] <davmor2> JamesTait: this seems appropriate https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kimrhwS3VlU
[10:27] <knightwise> hahah zmoylan-pi that would be awesome
[10:31] <JamesTait> davmor2, YES!
[11:01] <diddledan> just as I read a review of the new x-files
[11:02] <knightwise> Dman :( mps-youtube wont install on the rasp py
[11:02] <knightwise>  ImportError: No module named youtube_dl
[11:02] <foobarry> i saw that scully lady in the street not long ago
[11:02] <foobarry> my mate went crazy, fortunately was restrained from speaking/slobbering on her
[11:06] <knightwise> the "new" x-files ?
[11:06] <knightwise> as in the reboot ?
[11:07] <diddledan> yes
[11:07] <diddledan> http://www.indiewire.com/article/review-the-x-files-revival-shows-its-age-in-season-10-premiere-20151010
[11:10]  * knightwise is getting old that he didn"t notice that
[11:14] <zmoylan-pi> well there was a lot of star wars news drowning it out a smidge
[11:21] <foobarry> i did enjoy star wars
[12:15] <foobarry> wondered why a regular process run via cron  was suddenly eating 12gb ram
[12:15] <foobarry> it had an extra 30M lines in the file. usualy it has 5000.
[12:16] <czajkowski> people who use libreoffice for presentations, when the side pane goes bye bye, how do you make itcome back!!
[12:16] <czajkowski> want to see side pane beside the slide
[12:18] <xnox> bash F1-F12 keys until it's back?!
[12:18] <xnox> .... is the extended of my libreoffice usage skillz
[12:26] <knightwise> czajkowski: i weep for you...
[12:26]  * knightwise hates dogy presentation apps like .. powerpoint
[13:29] <foobarry> ear worm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRxRX6Mr3Lk
[13:32] <brobostigon> is it possible to send a text to my phone on a highlight in irssi?
[13:34] <foobarry> does it have to be a text
[13:34] <foobarry> not a notification?
[13:35] <brobostigon> options like pushover and pushbullet exist, but i was just curious about the problem.
[13:36] <Myrtti> brobostigon: android?
[13:37] <brobostigon> Myrtti: ubuntu touch/firefox os/sailfish os.
[13:37] <Myrtti> oh.
[13:37] <Myrtti> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fi.iki.murgo.irssinotifier&hl=en_GB would've been the standard Android answer.
[13:37] <brobostigon> yes, thats what i use on my droid.
[13:40] <m0nkey_> If you want text messaging, maybe something like clickatell and develop something around their API
[13:41] <brobostigon> let me look that up.
[13:41] <m0nkey_> Clickatell is a paid service, like many SMS gatewates
[13:41] <m0nkey_> *gateways
[13:42] <brobostigon> i see.
[13:42] <m0nkey_> Or the cheapest way to do it, if your mobile operator supports it, is to use the e-mail to SMS gateway.. usually you can send something like 0123456789@sms.yourtelco.com
[13:43] <brobostigon> yes, i have read about that option.
[13:57] <diplo> brobostigon: I use Telegrams API with Nagios :)
[13:57] <diplo> tis free
[13:58] <brobostigon> :)
[13:58] <m0nkey_> ^-- that works
[13:58] <diplo> Just have to amend irssi-notifier? to use telegram cli instead I guess, not tried that
[13:59] <diplo> Interesting though
[13:59] <brobostigon> i shall have a look into that one.
[14:00] <diplo> Got very very rudimentary code on how I did it on my github if you want a look
[14:00] <brobostigon> thank you.
[14:07] <davmor2> foobarry: that's not an earworm, this is an earworm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fe93CLbHjxQ or this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NL6CDFn2i3I or this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykwqXuMPsoc
[14:07] <foobarry> we'll see what happens at 2am tonight
[14:07] <foobarry> when i wake up
[14:08] <foobarry> because the internal jukebox has kicked in
[14:09] <davmor2> foobarry: oh internal jukebox in that case I'll throw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCARADb9asE and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mGBaXPlri8 into the mix
[14:10] <foobarry> there used to be an advert for frankfurters
[14:10] <foobarry> with an annoying repetitive song
[14:10] <foobarry> do do doo-doo do do doo-doo do dooo doo do do do
[14:10] <davmor2> foobarry: skol skol skol skol skol skol skol skol skol skol
[14:11] <foobarry> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qAuoXBNkw0
[14:11] <foobarry> also my old friend mungo jerry
[14:12] <foobarry> sang a catchy little tune
[14:13] <davmor2> foobarry: It is in the international sign that Summer is here when you hear it :)
[15:07] <foobarry> having your own github instance onsite is so handy
[15:14]  * bigcalm hugs gitlab
[15:20] <diplo> About to try gitlab here and import our svn repo
[15:23] <diplo> Did you guys use the omnibus package ?
[15:25] <m0nkey_> diplo: using gitlab at work.. omnibus works great
[15:25] <diddledan> ditto
[15:25] <m0nkey_> and i'm prepared for the hate... running on centos :)
[15:25] <diddledan> I use omnibus packages too
[15:25] <diddledan> m0nkey_: not bsd? :-p
[15:26] <m0nkey_> diddledan: unfortunately my current hard on BSD doesn't spill over to my professional life just yet.
[15:27] <diddledan> hehe
[15:27] <diplo> m0nkey_: I have to use CentOS at work too :/
[15:27] <diddledan> :-(
[15:27] <diddledan> at least you're not using Gentoo :-D
[15:27] <diplo> Will set up a VM tomorrow and play
[15:28] <diplo> diddledan: SCO 5 work for you ?
[15:28] <diddledan> hah
[15:28] <diplo> Two sites still on it, a couple of Redhat 8 boxes
[15:28] <diddledan> that's awesome from a geek perspective, less so from a usability stance
[15:28] <diplo> It's a royal pain in my arse :/
[15:29] <diplo> So are the multitude of Cent 4 boxes
[15:29] <diddledan> ooh, 4 is ancient now
[15:29] <diplo> Getting there with upgrading now though, just moved a customer live with cent6 today, from sco 5
[15:29] <diddledan> \o/
[15:30] <diplo> His previous machine didn't have internet access, this one has, unfortunately their internal network is 195.194 range, which is actualyl part of Janet, Can't change it yet either
[15:30] <diplo> :/
[15:30] <m0nkey_> Dammit Janet!
[15:31] <diplo> tbh with all the changes we've done for them for this upgrade, why we didn't go the whole hog and sort their network out too is beyond me :/
[15:32]  * m0nkey_ loves console only teamviewer :)
[15:32] <m0nkey_> Latest version of TV supports headless Linux boxes now
[15:34] <diplo> Didn't know that was an option
[15:34] <foobarry> diplo: i hav esome janet boxes on 194
[15:35] <diplo> This was based in walsall
[15:35] <foobarry> walsall have internet?
[15:36] <m0nkey_> diplo: it is :)
[15:36] <diplo> I shall investigate m0nkey_ :)
[15:36] <diplo> hah foobarry
[15:36] <m0nkey_> I'm also disappointed nobody got my Rocky Horror Picture Show reference.
[15:37] <SuperMatt> problem with a reference like that is that it is so well known that no one reacts any more
[15:38] <m0nkey_> I'm still disappointed.
[15:38] <diplo> Not by me, never watched it!
[15:38] <popey> dont think I have ever seen RHPS
[15:38] <m0nkey_> You could have at least said "Oh, Brad!"
[15:38] <diplo> See not the only one :D
[15:39] <m0nkey_> I downloaded it again the other day, been meaning to watch it again for the 50th time in my life.
[15:39] <m0nkey_> Tim Curry is awesome.
[15:40] <m0nkey_> I'm sad about his stroke which left him wheelchair bound :(
[15:40] <SuperMatt> well, I know the reference, but I've only seen it once, so I can't remember what comes next
[15:45] <diplo> https://www.bas.ac.uk/jobs/vacancy/wintering-communication-manager/#jobskills
[15:46] <diplo> Normally only a 4 month stint, debated doing this last year... 18 months maybe too long though :(
[15:47] <diplo> Family-friendly policies
[15:47] <diplo> Flexible working hours
[15:47] <diplo> hahaha, not when you're in the Antartic :D
[16:11] <zmoylan-pi> free ice for your parties
[16:16] <m0nkey_> diddledan: that 'all RAID is software' tweet got me a few likes and followers :) lol
[16:19] <diddledan> \o/
[16:23] <m0nkey_> back to work for me
[16:23] <m0nkey_> cya folks
[16:24] <m0nkey_> also diddledan, disappointed you're not in #freenas :)
[16:35] <bigcalm> Can't decide if I should run the landscape-client on my landscape server. Would it confuse matters and break?
[16:35] <Seeker`> popey: you should watch it?
[16:35] <Seeker`> -?
[21:59] <amunizp> hi all I have LUKS disk encryption and get this every time: mapper/ubuntu(...) swap1 not ready wait or manual mount?
[21:59] <amunizp> is it normal?
[22:02] <amunizp> an update also said it ran out of space in /boot.  said to run apt-get clean but it did not do anything.
[22:03] <daftykins> apt-get autoremove ; would kill any older kernels
[22:03] <daftykins> confirm with "dpkg -l | grep linux-"
[22:04] <daftykins> for encryption help you'd be better off asking in #ubuntu - one of the encryption experts is active in there
[22:08] <daftykins> amunizp: ?
[22:09] <amunizp> thanks!
[22:15] <amunizp> daftykins your command seems to show I have more than 11. how many old kernels do I need?
[22:16] <daftykins> the present running one and maybe one old one for backup cases
[22:20] <amunizp> update went through for now but autoremove clearly din not delete any.
[22:25] <daftykins> throw "dpkg -l | grep linux-" in a pastebin then ( http://paste.ubuntu.com )
[22:25] <daftykins> or install 'pastebinit' and pipe that command into it
[22:29] <amunizp> thanks daftykins I'll have to leave it for another day!
[22:29] <daftykins> righty-o, 2 min job though
