dlPhreakGood morning.06:45
theblazehenhi Kilos, andrewlsd, paddatrapper, dlPhreak06:47

andrewlsdHi paddatrapper, theblazehen06:52
theblazehenAnd I need it to quit quassel so desktop doesn't read the notifications on desktop and not show laptop06:52
andrewlsdtheblazehen:  write a haskel version of Quassel, call it Hassel06:53

theblazehenandrewlsd: heh. 06:53
andrewlsd... Hassel: never log hoff.06:53
Kiloschores wbb06:53
theblazehenHmm. Smuxi does vertical channel list too06:54

paddatrapperHey theblazehen, dlPhreak06:55

Kiloshi christol magespawn Squirm 07:56
christolhello07:56
Kilosnice to see you back christol 08:04
christolyes. Had a catastrophic laptop failure.08:05
christolforgot my charger at the office08:06
christol:(08:06
Kilosai!08:06
christolbut i use linux on my laptop, so i was ok.08:08
Kiloslol08:08
* theblazehen gets around https://linx.home.theblazehen.com/jlg0izsl.jpeg <- that long when accessing laptop over ssh08:47
theblazehenNo power saving tools either08:47
andrewlsd`alias au="apt-get update`08:57
theblazehenandrewlsd: https://xkcd.com/1654/ close enough?08:57
andrewlsdlol.08:59
andrewlsdI'd prefer some ||  to be used.08:59
andrewlsdbut that is the general idea.09:00
theblazehenI'd say replace the '&' with ';'. If we're going with bad ideas, why not make sure you have the latest version of the software?09:03
theblazehen3rd last line needs to use && at the end though09:04
magellanichmm, does that xkcd cover the new snappy package thingy :p09:04
magellanicheya andrewlsd 09:05
theblazehenhey magellanic. 09:05
magellanicanyone played with the snaps stuff, looks interesting09:05
magellanicheya theblazehen 09:05
andrewlsdhi magellanic09:05
theblazehenNope. Nor appimage, or what are they calling it now? flatpak?09:05
andrewlsd.... appimage I've used. Seems to work the best (as in, it runs)09:06
andrewlsd... appimage has not sandboxing built in.... but I just run them via firejail instead.09:06
andrewlsdomgubuntu.co.uk had a couple of posts about snaps.09:07
andrewlsdhttp://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/07/snap-package-of-vlc-player-daily-build09:08
* theblazehen remembers https://www.turnkeylinux.org/09:08
* andrewlsd also remembers TurnKeyLinux 09:20
andrewlsd80MB of daily VLC snap downloaded...09:21
andrewlsdout of 110MB09:21
theblazehenWow. That's huge09:23
christolDoes anybody know of any Linux conferences in the near future arround gauteng?09:36

christolnot a laptop, but maybe a burner phone??09:57
theblazehenHmm. And chuck it when you leave?09:58
christolno, i'll give it to someone, i do not like :o09:58
theblazehenheh10:01
ra1v3nhow does one get a Burner phone in SA10:02
christolCNA10:02
ra1v3nAppImage is awesome especially for getting something ancient to run on a newer distro10:03
ra1v3nCNA10:03
ra1v3nreally10:03
ra1v3nI thought you had to RICA a sim ..... 10:03
theblazehenra1v3n: You do10:03
christolyes only the sim, phone differant story...10:04
theblazehenOr wait10:04
theblazehenYeah, was gonna say that10:04
ra1v3nwell then its not exactly a burner now is it 10:04
theblazehenra1v3n: How so?10:04
christolsure10:04
theblazehenWell, I guess govt can track you10:04
ra1v3nyour Identity will be linked to the sim10:04
theblazehenBut not others10:05
ra1v3nlol10:05
andrewlsd+1 ra1v3n (re appimage + newer distro)10:05
* theblazehen is gonna install GNU/Linux on a phone. Wonder what they'd do with that :) (ty andrewlsd!)10:05
ra1v3nI have Cyanogen and tiny Linux on my old P10010:06
christolnice, theblazehen.10:06
christollinux on everything10:06
* theblazehen wonders which distro. Perhaps debian10:06
theblazehenBinary packages10:06
* andrewlsd has linux on his toaster.10:06
andrewlsd(not really)10:06
theblazehenOr gentoo, more packages because of source, and distcc10:06
theblazehenhttp://www.bbspot.com/news/2008/12/linux-on-a-potato.html10:07
andrewlsdtheblazehen: how long to compile a kernel on the 1Ghz arm processor with 512MB ram?10:07
christolarch??10:07
christoltwo years - andrewlsd10:07
ra1v3nlmao10:07
theblazehenandrewlsd: Well, gonna be hitting flash a lot. 3 hours on an x86_64 atom single core with hyperthreading at 1.6GHz, 2 GB RAM and a 5400 RPM HDD. That was back in 2012 though10:08
theblazehenMaybe if I use nfs/nbd10:08
theblazehenor iSCSI10:08
andrewlsdlol. iSCSI over Wifi.10:08
theblazehenI think you _can_ use swap over iscsi..10:08
andrewlsdor iSCSI over USB.10:08
theblazehenandrewlsd: Nah. USB Gadget10:08
theblazehenRun it as usbnet or rndis10:09
theblazehenPut swap on a ramdisk over network10:09
theblazehenHmm. Wifi and usb10:09
theblazehenhttp://dmitry.gr/index.php?r=05.Projects&proj=07.%20Linux%20on%208bit wanna do this sometime10:10
theblazehen> This results in a maximum bandwidth of about 300 kilobytes per second. 10:10
theblazehenIf storage is 200 KB/s, why even bother with the RAM?10:11
christoltheblazehen -- you could show us your project at christocon.10:13
theblazehenchristol: Heh. yeah10:14
* theblazehen needs to get a reverse proxy set up on dedicated server10:14
theblazehenGot stuff I want to write for blog.10:14
theblazehenHome saltstack setup10:14
theblazehenFinding security bug in http://rocket.chat10:14
theblazehenAnd other things I forgot10:14
theblazehenAnd phone thing. Yeah10:15
* theblazehen will hopefully break https://github.com/Seitanas/kvm-vdi/ today also10:15
theblazehenWell, it's already broken I think10:16
theblazehenJust need to use it10:16
theblazehenHow do people not see these security bugs... So easy, ffs!10:16
theblazehenLiterally found it withing 4 min of looking for security stuff10:16
theblazehenAnd 6 min of looking at general code10:16
christolhave you looked at X2Go for your VDI10:18
theblazehenchristol: I've used it, ran primary pc with it10:19
theblazehenVirtualized pc on an i3-2100 with IIRC 16 GB RAM10:19
christolnice10:20
theblazehenconnected with netbook mentioned earlier10:20
theblazehenDepending on wifi link it was either good performance or a little bit better than running on the netbook itself10:20
theblazehengood=4mbit, little better = 2 mbit/s10:20
* theblazehen should probably get some sleep some time... Those sleep deprivation headaches are fun10:25
christolsleep is good10:26
theblazehenIt's good, yes. But it's really annoying when you're trying to get stuff done10:28
* theblazehen finds 5-7 hours on week days, 10 on friday night, 8 on saturday night is _okay_10:29

Kilosplenty12:09
ra1v3nso It needs HDD and A GPU now12:09
Kiloswhat speed cpu12:09
Kilosmy dualcore is a 3.2GHZ cpu12:10
Kilosand strangely its almost as fast as this i5 laptop12:11
ra1v3nThe machine itself works I booted it up with parted magic on a USB 12:11
Kilosthen the internal graphics should be fine12:11
ra1v3nI had that written down somewhere ... lol the "where" is the problem12:11
Kilosdont fiddle with what works12:12
Kilosram is another matter12:12

artsI'm trying to re adjust the heigt of my graph in chart.js13:15
artscan I show you the site?13:15
andrewlsdarts: have you been to www.chartjs.org/docs13:19
artsyep13:19
artshttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/38874529/chart-js-adjust-height-in-mobile-view13:19
artsI've been trying to fix this thing the whole dau13:19
artsdayu13:19
arts*day13:19
arts LOL13:19
andrewlsdanyone else find this to be somewhat ironic:13:28
andrewlsdvtop                              1.0.1                         stephen-stewart-blah  -      A graphical activity monitor for the command line. Written in node.js13:28
andrewlsda graphical activity monitor, for CLi, in Node.13:28
magellanicarts: I have no experience with chartjs, but that SO post mentions that it does resize just is then too small to work with after the resize?13:32
magellanicandrewlsd: weird yeah13:33
artsyep13:33
magellanicarts: when I load the link mentioned in the SO post, chrome dev console complains that bootstrap requires jquery, did you perhaps forget jquery?13:33
magellanicoh I see you do have it13:34
artsyeh, damn graphs13:35
magellanicarts: load jquery before bootstrap13:35
artsI will but there is no need for jquery theres nothing on the page tht uses it, but let me change it quick13:36
magellanicbootstap uses it13:36
artsyeah only for madals, dropdowns etc not chart.js13:39
magellanicah okay13:39
artsmadals... I'm losing my mind! I meand modals :X13:40
magellanicso on mobile you want a larger height?13:41
artsyeah, the bars are too short13:43
magellanicin the docs they set the height of the canvas element13:48
magellanicI'd look at the maintainAspectRatio option too13:52
jeriteither my pc is confused about who I am13:53
jeritor I'm confused about who I am13:53
jeritO_o13:54
jeritI don't know which is actually the case her13:54
jerithere*13:54
magellanicarts: setting a height on the canvas to test, works for me, it makes the chart longer. I guess you need some css and media queries to resize it dynamically?14:10
artsnice on magellanic 14:44

cal_pyhttp://preview.qaxawkzy7e6d2t9vhswkar3v1n8w7b9p705un9k2ojkbj4i.box.codeanywhere.com/#20:02
cal_pyok so this is my attemp to making a dashboard with cards, I've spent the whole day getting the JS to create multiple graphs, it works, everyone on the same page?20:03
superflyooo, nice20:03
cal_pyok now here the problem20:04
cal_pyload the page again and press "push!"20:04
cal_pyapologies my typing is not so good tonight20:05
superflythe graphs don't load?20:06
cal_pyexactly, google's chart API seems to only load when the pages loads which is a deal breaker, any suggestions? 20:07
kulelu88works for me after reloading and hitting push20:07
cal_pyno way send a screenshot!20:07
kulelu88should the cards load the first time I visit the site without clicking push? it shows blank for me everytime20:08
cal_pythey should have charts in them20:08
kulelu88I don't see any charts 0.o20:08
cal_pythats the issue, 20:09
kulelu88even the first time I load it20:09
cal_pychange the code that it loads shaker_maker() on load, and the graphs will load20:09
kulelu88you changed it? 20:12
cal_pyyep20:12

superflycal_py: why aren't you using jquery?20:25
kulelu88which part is ass? going toilet?20:25
superflyyou've got it, but you're not using it20:25
cal_pyjquery is for modals and fancy buttons20:26
cal_pyalso 20:26
superflycal_py: and for DOM manipulation20:26
cal_pyI used it for clearing the screen when I change the resolution 20:27
cal_pyexactly superfly 20:27
superflycal_py: but you're not doing it20:27
superfly"document.getElementById('cards').appendChild(new_card);"20:27
superfly$("#cards").append(new_card);20:28
cal_pyjquery scares me20:28
superflyvar new_card = $("<div>");20:28
cal_pyive only been programming in JS for like 3 weeks now20:28
superfly^^ like way less typing than your version20:28
cal_pybut your right jquery is easier20:28
kulelu88cal_py: what's your other IRC username?20:28
superflyscripting. programming means using a real programming language20:28
superfly*you're20:28
cal_pyarts or cal_py20:28
cal_pymy bad superfly scripting 20:29
superfly;-)20:29
superflyhaving said that, at work I'm writing an entire application in JavaScript20:29
kulelu88so you're new here cal_py 20:30
cal_pyhaha same, well a dashboard, what are you writing, if you can tell20:30
kulelu88why are you rebuilding a dashboard cal_py ? there are many solutions out there already20:33
superflycal_py: http://nomanini.com/ the big orange device and the web dashboard next to it? both, actually.20:34
cal_pybecause im fussy kulelu88, 20:34
superflybut the web dashboard is written in JS20:34
cal_pyare you using a framework? superfly 20:34
superflyAngularJS20:35
cal_pylook awesome superfly 20:36
cal_py*looks20:36
superflyit is awesome20:36
superflyI was using jQuery for a project, and I wanted to do a lot of GUI stuff in it, and I didn't feel like all the boilerplate and manual labour. then I found AngularJS and I didn't have to care about that again20:37
cal_pyquestion, is the styling of the dashboard part of angular? 20:37
kulelu88there should be a lib for it20:38
kulelu88a lot of these JS frameworks inherit from JQuery20:38
cal_pyhaha seems like jquery is the root to all evil20:39
superflynegative, the love of money is the root of all evil. jQuery is awesome for its intended purpose20:39
superflybut application development is not what jQuery was intended for. it was intended for DOM manipulation20:40
superflyour app uses a bit of jQuery where Angular can't do what we want20:40
kulelu88then again, the browser itself was never intended for heavy JS apps20:40
superflyand it also uses Bootstrap, which is a UI framework20:40
cal_pygoogle's legends for charts suck!20:40
