inetpro | good mornings | 07:36 |
superfly | <anton_may> We have ditched sms notifications totally from Nagios and it's running completely over Telegram | 07:42 |
superfly | NICE | 07:42 |
superfly | anton_may: how are you achieving that? | 07:42 |
superfly | through a bot? | 07:42 |
* inetpro likes that idea as well | 07:42 | |
Cryterion | anyone know of any refrigeration wholesalers around besides Carrier and Kovco? | 07:52 |
anton_may | superfly: took our weekend phone sim, registered with TG. Installed telegram on our nagios server and then added it to the cmd.cfg | 07:54 |
anton_may | telegram has a very good cli interface | 07:54 |
superfly | Ah, OK. We've written a bot. There's a very nice Python library for Telegram. | 07:55 |
anton_may | yea there are plenty ways to install it. Saves us now a crap load on sms | 07:57 |
anton_may | fees | 07:57 |

inetpro | oh and Happy Mailman Day as well! | 08:31 |
chesedo | again... | 08:32 |
chesedo | or just your april fools joke? | 08:32 |
anton_may | So whose knickers are they getting into? | 08:32 |

inetpro | chesedo: http://bill-owens.blogspot.co.za/2012/02/only-you-can-prevent-monthly-mailman.html | 09:10 |
anton_may | anybody with neotel dc in midrand? | 09:53 |
Kilos | Cryterion you still here | 10:37 |
Cryterion | Hi | 10:37 |
Cryterion | wish I was home, but have to work :( | 10:38 |
Kilos | try dishes or cups with some balsamic vinegar and apple cider vinegar and water | 10:38 |
Kilos | like half full | 10:38 |
Cryterion | I've heard about it, cleans them | 10:38 |
Kilos | then add 2 or three drops sunlight dishwashing liquid and stir | 10:38 |
Kilos | then leave all over where miggies pester you | 10:39 |
Cryterion | hmmm | 10:39 |
Kilos | the sour attracts them and they come to drink | 10:39 |
Kilos | with no soap added the walk on the moisture and drink then fly away | 10:40 |
Cryterion | ah, but normally vinegar chases, I know it keeps the flies out the biltong drier | 10:40 |
Kilos | with soap they sink and drown | 10:40 |
Kilos | not normal vinegar | 10:40 |
Cryterion | hmm, will give it a go | 10:40 |
Cryterion | has to be balsamic? | 10:40 |
Kilos | im using balsamic and water and soap | 10:41 |
Kilos | catches many | 10:41 |
Cryterion | ok kwl | 10:41 |
Cryterion | thanks | 10:41 |
Kilos | havent got apple cider vinegar | 10:41 |
Kilos | if you get get the one thats yellow in colour | 10:42 |
Cryterion | that's apple cider | 10:42 |
Kilos | they say with mother in over seas i dunno here | 10:42 |
Cryterion | balsamic is dark | 10:42 |
Kilos | yes apple cider | 10:42 |
Kilos | Maaz google apple cider vinegar with mother | 10:42 |

anton_may | me think Kilos should change professions to as a medicine man | 10:45 |
Cryterion | lol | 10:46 |
Kilos | haha | 10:46 |
Kilos | them things bite me so i try anything to get rid of them | 10:47 |
Kilos | they love going in eyebrows then walking down to eyes to drink | 10:47 |
Kilos | ive almost slapped myself blind already | 10:48 |
magespawn | good day | 11:53 |
Kilos | hi magespawn | 11:53 |
magespawn | hi Kilos | 11:55 |
Kilos | someone asked about neology | 12:30 |
Kilos | im using it on desktop | 12:30 |
Kilos | the repo that is | 12:30 |
Kilos | hmm... are we quiet here today or what | 13:03 |
Kilos | Maaz coffee on | 13:31 |
* Maaz flips the salt-timer | 13:31 | |
Kilos | Maaz hurry | 13:31 |
Maaz | Making decent coffee is an art Kilos and should never be rushed | 13:31 |
Maaz | Coffee's ready for Kilos! | 13:35 |
Kilos | Maaz ty | 13:35 |
Maaz | You are welcome Kilos | 13:35 |
magespawn | home time, chat later | 13:53 |
magespawn | bye | 13:53 |
Kilos | oooo yay | 15:31 |
Kilos | touched some thing and backlighting wen dark | 15:31 |
Kilos | battled to see but could follow the cli way to set brightness from http://askubuntu.com/questions/57236/unable-to-change-brightness-in-a-lenovo-laptop | 15:32 |
Kilos | worked like a charm | 15:32 |
Kilos | i forgot where to set it in settings | 15:33 |
Kilos | Maaz tell cryterion http://src.easyhealthoptions.com/ego/dab21579-718e-4dd1-a318-d895284bd3f2/401863400/310694 | 15:50 |
Maaz | Kilos: Okay, I'll tell Cryterion on freenode | 15:50 |
Kilos | Maaz tell mazal http://src.easyhealthoptions.com/ego/dab21579-718e-4dd1-a318-d895284bd3f2/401863400/310694 | 15:50 |
Maaz | Kilos: Okay, I'll tell mazal on freenode | 15:50 |
Kilos | i havent watched the video but we can discuss their findings | 15:51 |
* chesedo wonders who Kilos is talking to :P | 15:58 | |
Kilos | lol | 15:58 |
Kilos | when | 15:58 |
chesedo | [17:51:17] <Kilos> i havent watched the video but we can discuss their findings | 15:58 |
Kilos | oh haha some places just want to make money | 15:59 |
Kilos | i dont have data to watch them so its up to each of them to decide | 15:59 |
chesedo | lol oky | 16:00 |
* chesedo wbb | 16:01 | |
Kilos | ok | 16:01 |
Kilos | i go eat | 16:59 |
Wolfeyes | Evening everyone. | 17:17 |
dlPhreak | Hi Wolfeyes | 17:19 |
Wolfeyes | how you doing dlPhreak? | 17:19 |
dlPhreak | It's a friday and I'm sober... Think that's good? LOL Yourself? | 17:20 |
Kilos | hi Wolfeyes | 17:29 |
Kilos | well done dlPhreak | 17:30 |
Wolfeyes | hey Kilos | 17:32 |
dlPhreak | Kilos! Hi | 17:43 |
Kilos | hmm... | 17:47 |
Wolfeyes_is | hmmm ... | 17:51 |
=== Wolfeyes_is is now known as Wolfeyes | ||
dlPhreak | Does anyone have an opionion on the Canonical Microsoft deal? | 17:53 |
magespawn | good evening | 17:54 |
Kilos | hi magespawn | 17:54 |
Wolfeyes | hey magespawn | 17:54 |
magespawn | so whats up? interesting problems, ideas or discussions? or maybe a chilled friday? | 17:56 |
Wolfeyes | I need to finish my car first magespawn :-P, then I want to start with a rasberry pi. | 17:57 |
magespawn | whats with the car? | 17:57 |
Kilos | dlPhreak bad news on the brew i think | 17:58 |
Wolfeyes | I redid the valve stem seals and it seems to be sucking air in somewhere, so I need to find the leak so it can run properly. | 17:58 |
Wolfeyes | I think so too, dlPhreak | 17:58 |
magespawn | Wolfeyes: did you do the seals yourself? | 17:59 |
Wolfeyes | Yes. | 17:59 |
magespawn | okay then, i took mine in for that | 18:00 |
magespawn | can a pressure test show you where it is sucking in air? | 18:00 |
Wolfeyes | Next time I will do the same, although it was a nice experience. | 18:00 |
Kilos | nope | 18:00 |
Wolfeyes | no | 18:00 |
Wolfeyes | maybe a vacuum test on the head, but apparently the guys don't doit here | 18:01 |
Kilos | sucking below the carb and between there and the lock | 18:01 |
Wolfeyes | and then it would only be for valves | 18:01 |
Wolfeyes | not the pipes or gaskets | 18:01 |
magespawn | what car? | 18:01 |
Wolfeyes | or air screw :-P | 18:01 |
Wolfeyes | citi golf | 18:02 |
Wolfeyes | 1.4 | 18:02 |
magespawn | i have found th seal between the carb and the inlet manifold is particularly easy to crack and not notice | 18:03 |
Wolfeyes | It is a common problem on them | 18:04 |
magespawn | not that then, i take it? | 18:06 |
Wolfeyes | Nope | 18:06 |
Wolfeyes | But she works a lot for me so I am trying to replace a lot of the old parts as possible | 18:07 |
Wolfeyes | had her now close to a year and done close to 30 000 km on her | 18:07 |
magespawn | they are good cars, mine takes a hell of a beating, bad roads etc | 18:08 |
Wolfeyes | I have a small dirt road I ride on but not too bad. | 18:08 |
Kilos | best car on the road | 18:10 |
Kilos | vee double you and me | 18:10 |
Wolfeyes | now to get back to the pi, I want to connect it to a relay or use the relay on it if it has one, to operate a siren for work hours and times, which can be programmed by the user from a pc and not a digital timer, because I am battling to find a digital timer that works in seconds. | 18:11 |
Kilos | not good when van der merwes have fiddled though | 18:11 |
Wolfeyes | ha ha ha ha ha | 18:11 |
magespawn | seconds seems a little precise Wolfeyes | 18:12 |
Wolfeyes | if the siren runs for more than 4 seconds then it burns out | 18:12 |
Wolfeyes | after a while and totally annoying to hear it blast for so long | 18:13 |
magespawn | ahh right i see | 18:13 |
magespawn | i thought you wanted it to go at a specific time like 14:05:09 | 18:13 |
Wolfeyes | yes it must | 18:13 |
Wolfeyes | but just run, so everyone can hear and switch off | 18:14 |
superfly | so how the flip do you log in to mattermost from another machine? | 18:17 |
Kilos | oh my | 18:17 |
Wolfeyes | lol | 18:18 |
Kilos | superfly carefully | 18:18 |
Wolfeyes | If you battling superfly, then we are a little more lost than you | 18:18 |
superfly | Wolfeyes: it's just unintuitive | 18:19 |
superfly | but I figured it out | 18:19 |
Kilos | little more? | 18:19 |
Kilos | how | 18:19 |
Wolfeyes | okay a lot more | 18:19 |
Wolfeyes | lol | 18:19 |
Wolfeyes | I am sure unintuitivity comes from experience :-P | 18:20 |
superfly | inetpro: where are you? | 18:28 |
inetpro | pong | 18:28 |
inetpro | superfly: ? | 18:30 |
superfly | inetpro: I figured that one out too | 18:31 |
* superfly moves on to other things | 18:31 | |
inetpro | superfly: sorry for the disturbance in the force | 18:33 |
Kilos | inetpro fix audio alerts there man | 18:36 |
kulelu88 | superfly: what is libvirt? | 18:44 |
superfly | kulelu88: AFAIK it's a library for talking to virtualisation technologies like KVM And XEN | 18:45 |
kulelu88 | superfly: I am attempting to map my LXC container to a LAN IP using this info: https://wiki.debian.org/LXC/LibVirtDefaultNetwork | 18:45 |
superfly | ah! | 18:45 |
kulelu88 | ooh fancy, it gave me an internalized IP :D | 18:46 |
kulelu88 | success! | 18:46 |
kulelu88 | now I can browse my LAN via my phone with my stuff inside the container haha | 18:46 |
Trixar_za | :'( | 18:54 |
Trixar_za | Downloads are slow | 18:54 |
Trixar_za | Damn rainy weather -_- | 18:55 |
* magespawn goes to read about LXC | 18:58 | |
magespawn | inetpro when running byobu on local and a ssh remote machine then you can disable local F keys with Shift+F12 so that the key strokes go through to the remote machine, depends on the local setup of course | 19:04 |
magespawn | a question i asked sometime ago, you did propose another answer | 19:04 |
inetpro | magespawn: I am used to the screen commands like Ctrl+a and c and others and thus use the screen backend | 19:07 |
inetpro | in stead of tmux | 19:07 |
inetpro | you can switch the backend with 'byobu-select-backend' | 19:08 |
inetpro | then 'man screen' to see all the many options | 19:08 |
inetpro | in other words I do not use the F keys | 19:09 |
magespawn | i got that, lol | 19:09 |
magespawn | each to his own, and i am still learning what suits me best, so options are good | 19:10 |
Kilos | i go sleep cant upgrade opera because something else is using the installer thing and i cant find it | 19:17 |
Kilos | night all. sleep tight | 19:17 |
Wolfeyes | night dad | 19:17 |
magespawn | good night Kilos | 19:19 |
magespawn | Wolfeyes: what pi do you have? | 19:23 |
inetpro | magespawn: I'm not sure whether that answered your question | 19:24 |
inetpro | magespawn: what keys specifically are messing with your workflow? | 19:25 |
magespawn | it did, especially the first time, this was a continuation of the conversation | 19:25 |
inetpro | I'm asking because not all keys are specific to screen or tmux | 19:26 |
Wolfeyes | I don't have one yet, magespawn. I want to buy one and start playing. The basic one will do for now as it doesn't need to do a lot. | 19:26 |
inetpro | byobu has come with more keys | 19:26 |
magespawn | nothing in particular, i learnt byobu on my local machine and did not try to use it remotely from a session | 19:26 |
inetpro | and... | 19:26 |
inetpro | some keys have changed from version to version as well | 19:26 |
magespawn | Wolfeyes: maybe the smallest one will be good for you then, i have a pi B+ and i have found it to be remarkable capable | 19:27 |
magespawn | inetpro: those changes will be in the man so that should be okay | 19:27 |
Wolfeyes | I was even looking at the A model | 19:28 |
magespawn | thats the one | 19:28 |
inetpro | magespawn: sometimes documentation is not always up to date | 19:29 |
Wolfeyes | it only needs to run an interface window where the changes can be made to times manually, maybe have a password to enter it and then, if it has a relay trigger the siren or if it doesn't have a relay then trigger a relay which triggers the siren. | 19:29 |
inetpro | in fact documentation is often not up to date | 19:29 |
magespawn | ahh, i will tread with caution then inetpro | 19:29 |
Wolfeyes | Where did you buy yours from again magespawn? | 19:33 |
magespawn | i didn't | 19:33 |
magespawn | wife bought it | 19:33 |
Wolfeyes | lol | 19:33 |
Wolfeyes | Man she loves you......lol. | 19:33 |
inetpro | magespawn: in (k)ubuntu 16.04 for instance you use 'Ctrl + A %' to split vertically and 'Ctrl + A |' to split horizontally | 19:34 |
inetpro | and I think in the older version it's the other way around | 19:34 |
inetpro | or in fact Horizontal split = 'Ctrl+A S' | 19:35 |
inetpro | and Vertical split = 'Ctrl+A |' | 19:35 |
inetpro | splits are really awesome | 19:35 |
magespawn | yup i love running things side by side, i used to use Terminator with split screens a lot | 19:36 |
Wolfeyes | http://www.bidorbuy.co.za/jsp/tradesearch/TradeSearch.jsp | 19:37 |
Wolfeyes | was quite surprised there is even a manual from Haynes now | 19:38 |
magespawn | that links just takes me to bid or buy search page | 19:39 |
magespawn | wife says she got it from a local computer shop Wolfeyes | 19:43 |
Wolfeyes | type in rasberrypi 4 items come up of which one is the haynes manual | 19:45 |
magespawn | heh cool | 19:45 |
Wolfeyes | I'll talk to Matrix when I get a chance, buy a lot from them and they give me good discounts for local things | 19:45 |
magespawn | nice, my search has turned up a view other things | 19:49 |
Wolfeyes | Yeah I see that too | 19:49 |
magespawn | nice toys | 19:50 |
Wolfeyes | lol | 19:50 |
magespawn | Wolfeyes: dwho is the siren controller for? | 19:50 |
magespawn | s/dwh/who | 19:50 |
Wolfeyes | clients | 19:50 |
Wolfeyes | so they will pay for my fun lol | 19:51 |
magespawn | did they just ask for a solution? | 19:51 |
Wolfeyes | Nods | 19:51 |
magespawn | right | 19:51 |
magespawn | nice when people do that, just ask for a solution then let you find it | 19:51 |
Wolfeyes | I have a digital timer in already but the daylight saving has gone haywire, and I could just get another one, but I started talkign to the clients and finding out what they wanted. So they told me. Now I just apply what they said and put the pieces together and get it to work and sell it back to them. | 19:52 |
Wolfeyes | Plus have something which I now can sell to other clients | 19:53 |
magespawn | nice | 19:53 |
Wolfeyes | Because it doesn't exist. | 19:53 |
magespawn | creating products | 19:53 |
Wolfeyes | nods | 19:53 |
Wolfeyes | always said I wanted to work smart and hard, not just one or the other.... there is always disadvantages in just choosing one. | 19:54 |
Wolfeyes | want to get kilos involved with making the relay boards maybe, if it is cost effective, give him something to do and a chance to make some money. | 19:57 |
magespawn | nice idea | 19:59 |
Wolfeyes | http://www.aliexpress.com/w/wholesale-raspberry-pi.html <--- wondering how well these work.... | 20:01 |
chesedo | Wolfeyes: something even smaller (and simplier) than the Pi is an arduino | 20:03 |
Wolfeyes | I have seen with the biometrics stuff the chinese quality has improved a lot, so much so that it is surpassing the other competitors. | 20:03 |
chesedo | oh and you in prt right? | 20:03 |
Wolfeyes | oh..... | 20:03 |
Wolfeyes | close to it, Rustenburg. | 20:03 |
magespawn | and you can link a pi and arduino together | 20:06 |
Wolfeyes | I actually have another application where a client has asked me to create a fingerprint device to allocate rations to people, problem being there is a computer runnign constantly, with this it would... | 20:08 |
Wolfeyes | isn't a computer* | 20:08 |
magespawn | the is also the pi zero | 20:17 |
magespawn | sorry Wolfeyes, not getting that last one | 20:18 |
Wolfeyes | the website? | 20:18 |
magespawn | < Wolfeyes> I actually have another application where a client has asked me to create a fingerprint device to allocate rations to people, problem being there is a computer runnign constantly, with this it would... | 20:19 |
magespawn | .:22:09:15:. < Wolfeyes> isn't a computer* | 20:19 |
Wolfeyes | I have a client that wants a biometric (fingerprint scanner) device, to register when people have taken and not taken rations they give out through fingerprint registration, it can be currently done on a normal computer but the site where they want it has no computers available, if I could connect the device to a pi, then it should work. | 20:21 |
magespawn | should work, how does the reader connect to the computer? | 20:22 |
Wolfeyes | You have two ways of it registering, either on a controller box which is expensive or via software which need to be continuosly running. | 20:22 |
Wolfeyes | network - rj45 | 20:22 |
magespawn | static ip? | 20:23 |
Wolfeyes | or via normal communication points to the motherboard tx+/- and rx+/- | 20:24 |
Wolfeyes | yeah | 20:24 |
magespawn | so then you just need to see if the software will run on the pi. is the computer windows based? | 20:25 |
chesedo | Rustenburg, hmm... There is a place in city central and one closer to menlyn that sells electronics - just can't remember names | 20:25 |
Wolfeyes | yes it is. | 20:26 |
magespawn | ahh and i suppose the software is closed source? | 20:26 |
Wolfeyes | nods | 20:27 |
Wolfeyes | will have to make my own there, hence another huge learning curve | 20:27 |
magespawn | ahh maybe be able to run the windows inside some sort of virtual setup on the pi | 20:28 |
Wolfeyes | maybe yes | 20:28 |
Wolfeyes | just trying to think of what I used to use in kde | 20:29 |
magespawn | if you can get the technical specs of the reader then writing the software becomes easier | 20:29 |
magespawn | but that is also probably closed source | 20:31 |
magespawn | have found this https://www.adafruit.com/products/751 | 20:31 |
Wolfeyes | check your dialogue lol | 20:33 |
Wolfeyes | Oh that is interesting | 20:34 |
Wolfeyes | Just trying to think of the names, there will be someone even cheaper than them | 20:36 |
Wolfeyes | and the sensors are good qulaity | 20:36 |
Wolfeyes | mmmm | 20:36 |
Wolfeyes | you got me thinking now | 20:36 |
