| tgm4883 | nacc: are you suggesting that 15.10 was a development release? | 15:54 |
| nacc | tgm4883: sorry, typo'd, still waking up :) | 15:54 |
| tgm4883 | ok :) | 15:54 |
| tgm4883 | I know some people do call non-lts releases dev releases, and they really shouldn't | 15:55 |
| nicomachus | boo. forgot to turn on my PC at home this morning. can't backup without it... | 15:55 |
| nacc | tgm4883: yep, it's a bad habit on my part | 15:56 |
| daftykins | from work o0 | 15:56 |
| tgm4883 | nicomachus: upgrade and if things go awry then restore from your normal backups? | 15:56 |
| nicomachus | tgm4883: it's been a couple weeks. :/ | 15:57 |
| nicomachus | daftykins: yes from work. in my line of work, everything is owned by me. data, documents, etc. I guarantee no one else on staff has backups anywhere. but they all run windows so don't think about updating OS's or anything like htat. | 15:58 |
| daftykins | heh, nasty | 15:59 |
| daftykins | think i'd rather take in an external HDD though and have the benefit of speed | 15:59 |
| nicomachus | heh. the external HDD is currently plugged into my PC at home. :/ | 16:00 |
| nicomachus | I think it's actually a faster transfer that way anyway. I have parallel gigabit on both machines, but this laptop only has USB 2.0 and the PC at home has 3.0 | 16:01 |
| nicomachus | so max on this machine would be, what, 500 Mbps? | 16:01 |
| daftykins | far less, speed of the drive if it's mechanical | 16:02 |
| daftykins | less still if the enclosure doesn't support UASP | 16:02 |
| nicomachus | true. it is mechanical. | 16:02 |
| daftykins | i'm gonna see if i can reassemble my old graphics card without the air gap i noticed last time, hoping it's not entirely dead after all | 16:03 |

| daftykins | 2GB nvidia 560Ti | 16:04 |
| daftykins | got the lovely new MSI nvidia 1070 8GB in my new desktop build :D | 16:05 |
| * tgm4883 sighs | 19:07 | |
| daftykins | more delightful customers? | 19:11 |
| tgm4883 | Not customers this time | 19:15 |
| tgm4883 | I just find it so much fun when we point out that we shouldn't support something (in this instance, we shouldn't help enable a user stay on an EOL version) and the persons response (that is enabling this) is "I'm just providing unbiased facts. End of discussion" | 19:16 |
| tgm4883 | I mean, get off yourself dude | 19:16 |
| daftykins | some guy is helping someone keep running EOL? | 19:21 |
| daftykins | that's as damaging as the ones that say lubuntu can revive a turd like a netbook :( very frustrating | 19:22 |
| tgm4883 | yep | 19:29 |
| daftykins | bearing in mind the rule on support in here, has anyone used mod_evasive with apache2 before? | 21:29 |
| daftykins | ah nevermind :) just for reference though, i had a web server getting hammered by random IPs that kept changing - mod_evasive is kind of like an alternative to fail2ban but built into apache - it's now blocking IPs based on repeated access attempts which before were causing apache to fall over | 21:33 |
| Bashing-om | Heads up. the forum has problems posting .. expect our traffic load on the channel to increase . | 21:34 |
| daftykins | ooh dear! | 21:34 |
| daftykins | Bashing-om: just in time for the weekend masses ;) | 21:34 |
| Bashing-om | Oh Joy ! See what all you are missing .. daftykins I miss ya on the channel ! | 21:35 |
| daftykins | :) thanks sir | 21:37 |
| daftykins | missing you on #squoo.sh too! | 21:37 |
| Bashing-om | There not a thing going on in squoo.sh; when there is .. I can and will join .. where oh where has our fearless leader got off to ? | 21:39 |
| daftykins | True, that - but a nice little camp for us to chat in. I'd wager he's buried under a project or two :) He did mention buying a new farm for a new build iirc | 21:40 |
| Bashing-om | yeah .. I can accept that building a new house ( as in domicile) will take up ALL time . | 21:41 |
| Bashing-om | you, me and 2 others in #squoo.sh .... pickens are slim . | 21:43 |
| daftykins | plus you know how much he likes to multi-task with and keep going on the back burners :D | 21:44 |
| Bashing-om | Then again, maybe a flood wiped out his data center ?? | 21:46 |
| daftykins | ah he seemed to think he's pretty safe from floods i think | 21:49 |
| Bashing-om | Next time lotus checks in .. will have him ping TJ-; he was able once before to raise him up to provide his status . | 21:51 |
| daftykins | ah no i did that by dropping him an email :) | 21:54 |
| daftykins | could certainly check in on him again | 21:55 |
| Bashing-om | Ho Kay; Time to see if he is still breathing ? | 21:55 |
| daftykins | sure can | 21:58 |
| Bashing-om | when #squoo.sh channel number lights up .. will know TJ- is on ! | 22:00 |
| daftykins | bit too engrossed in a task of my own right now though :( | 22:13 |
| Bashing-om | Forum is back in business :) | 23:03 |
