Kiloshi nsnzero 06:50
nsnzerokilos how are you ?06:54
Kilosok ty nsnzero andyou?07:15
nsnzeroyear end is stressfull time for me but have to cope07:17
nsnzeroi heard about your incident - glad you are doing well 07:18
Kilosty07:22
Symmetriasup07:38
nsnzerohi07:42
Symmetriaheh, wheee, my power backup upgrade arrives this afternoon 07:43
Symmetriajust in time for me to plug in my new monster machine tomorrow07:43
nsnzerowhat hardware you packing ?07:44
Symmetriaheh new machine arriving tomorrow is....07:44
Symmetria64gigs of DDR 3333mhz ram, a 6700K cpu, 8 x 8TB HGST drives, 1 x 512gig NVME M.2 disk for operating system07:45
Symmetriaa GTX1080p video card 07:45
Symmetriaand 4 x 43" 4K displays 07:45
Symmetriaand a LSI 12gigabit/second raid controller 07:45
Symmetriaoh and a dual port 10G ethernet card07:46
Symmetriaheh, there are only 3 possible upgrades on that system, one is the video card where I could have gone titan-x, wasn't worth it, one is on the drives, where I could have gone 10TB disks, wasn't worth the cost, and the other is on the CPU - and the only CPU upgrade beyond the 6700K was more thousands of dollars than I was willing to spend07:46
nsnzerowhat are you building ? a skynet clone ?07:48
Symmetriahahaha supplementing my current system07:49
Symmetriaran outta disk space :( 07:49
Symmetriaand had no way to connect more disk space without an entire new system07:49
MaNIyou could always get some pci sata controllers and shove another 8 disks07:50
SymmetriaMani heh can't - no more slots on the motherboard07:51
Symmetriaheh current 2 machines are full - I've got 10G NIC's in them and 8 channel raid controllers07:51
MaNIahh07:51
Symmetriaheh, I'm running 160T at the moment07:54
Symmetriathis will push me over 200 07:54
Symmetriaas I said :) I was outta options07:55
nsnzerothats an awesome build you have 08:02
nlsthznhey uncle Kilos, how are you?09:29
Kilosim ok ty nlsthzn . getting ready for bed now. dreading the long flight back to za on monday10:20
Kilosand 4 hours in abu dabi10:20

theblazehenChannel's gotten quiet..17:27
nsnzeromake some noise 17:39
theblazehennsnzero: I'd rather make signal :)17:58
nsnzerolol18:03
nsnzerosorry went to wash dishes 18:03
nsnzeroanyone use python ?18:06
Cryterionnot really, but post your problem anyway18:06
nsnzeroCryterion: no problem - just checking for fellow programmers18:07
theblazehenA bit, but not a dev really, just script a bit18:07
Cryterionmaaz: tell ThatGraemeGuy can't connect to mt server due a password request, although keys allow connection18:07
MaazCryterion: Got it, I'll tell ThatGraemeGuy on freenode18:07
theblazehennsnzero: Try superfly and kbmonkey iirc18:08
theblazehenmaaz seen kbmonkey18:08
Maaztheblazehen: kbmonkey was last seen 21 hours and 39 minutes ago in #ubuntu-za on freenode [2016-11-22 22:29:10 SAST], and has been offline on freenode since 2016-11-23 15:17:41 SAST18:08
* superfly hears his name being mentioned18:08
superflyohi Cryterion18:08
Cryterionheya superfly18:08
superflynsnzero: yes, I use Python18:08
nsnzerohi there guys18:08
Cryterionad theblazehen18:08
* Cryterion got everyone awake18:09
theblazehenhey Cryterion 18:09
superflyCryterion: not a bad thing ;-)18:09
Cryterionat least I'm doing something good :)18:09
nsnzerosuperfly: i am just learning the tkinter library - its pythons gui library for those not in the know 18:11
superflynsnzero: don't bother with it, just used PyQt518:11
superfly*use18:11
Cryterionhmm, and I'm still fighting getting qt running on a raspberry, grrr18:12
superflyCryterion: which distro are you using?18:12
theblazehensuperfly: Easier than html + css? (I know python is easier than js)18:12
superflytheblazehen: eh... they are totally different18:12
Cryterioncurrently ubuntu 14.04 with the RPI2 using raspbian18:13
superflytheblazehen: html+css is a little more like writing the instructions to draw the button, whereas Qt gives you a button without caring about drawing it18:13
superflyCryterion: I thought Raspian came with Qt already installed?18:13
nsnzerosuperfly: i will look into that18:13
superflyIn fact, I know it does. I ran OpenLP on it back in the day18:13
theblazehensuperfly: Right. I meant in terms of overall work, how easy it is to define the layout basically18:13
superflytheblazehen: probably slightly easier in Qt18:14
Cryterionno doesn't, qt is now at 5.7, and most tutorials are still at 5.5/6, compile problems18:14
theblazehensuperfly: Alrightm ty18:14
theblazehens/m/,/18:14
CryterionI've seen qt advertises the python side with everything else18:15
superflytheblazehen: you can use Designer to start, and then transpile that XML to Python and tweak things in Python18:15
Cryterionand is a prerequisite for it to work properly18:15
superflyCryterion: There's PySide, and PyQt. PyQt is the more mature project18:15
theblazehensuperfly: How about dynamic kind of things? Eg adding a <dev> in html18:16
nsnzeroCryterion: i having the same problem with python 3 , almost evrything out is python 218:16
superflytheblazehen: you can add stuff dynamically. that's basically what happens when you change the XML to Python18:16
theblazehensuperfly: Alright, will check it out then. Ty18:16
Cryterionnsnzero just a start point to try look for info, www.ics.com18:16
Cryterionsome blogs on there to use qt with most things18:17
superflytheblazehen: my OpenLP project uses PyQt5, and we have a plugin system, and that allows you to add certain GUI elements dynamically18:17
CryterionI can't get a start base to build, that's my problem atm18:18
nsnzeroCryterion: thanks i will check it out 18:19
superflyCryterion: sorry, what are you trying to build?18:20
superflyalso, 98% of my Python 3 is identical to my Python 2, so I'm not entirely sure what the problem is...?18:20
tumbleweed:)18:21
superflyohi tumbleweed18:22
tumbleweedhi superfly. You settled into Trump-land yet?18:22
nsnzerosuperfly : not all libraries used in the tuts have been ported to 3 18:22
superflytumbleweed: negative. Interview with the consulate in Joburg on the 8th, and hoping to be in Trump-land before Christmas.18:22
tumbleweed:)18:22
Cryterionsuperfly https://www.ics.com/blog/configuring-qt-creator-raspberry-pi, for some reason, some of the source files are missing when compiling18:23
tumbleweedjust in time to catch the last bit of Obama-land18:23
superflytumbleweed: indeed...18:23
CryterionTrump-land will be very different to Obama-land18:23
MaNIor exactly the same, guess we will see next year :)18:25
Cryterionwell, jan 27th is his start18:25
* tumbleweed flew out on election night. And just got back yesterday. I've already had several long Trup conversations :/18:25
Cryterionhe's going to bring them change, I believe, and that's what they need18:26
MaNIwouldn't be so sure18:27
superflyObama promised lots of change, and never got to implement much of it18:27
superflyso yeah, all the politicians promise that18:27
MaNIalso the huge groups of people who seem to think he is 'not part of the system' are IMO massively deluding themselves18:28
Cryterionwe can only see, maybe the shadow gov gets control again18:28
superflyCryterion: which source files are missing, btw?18:28
theblazehenhttps://xkcd.com/1274/18:29
CryterionThe Simpson predicted this event in 2000 btw18:29
MaNIrage agaisnt the machine called it sooner :p18:29
CryterionI'll have to start the compile again superfly, and take screen shot to get back there18:30
MaNIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w211KOQ5BMI < check at 1:0418:30
CryterionBart to the future episode was a year out, map has only one state different18:30
CryterionMaNi interesting18:35
nsnzerois there a good ide for pyqt5 ?18:41
nsnzerovisual basic spolied me from text based ide's18:41
Cryterionhaven't tried the latest qt5 yet, as still problems stabilising it, but you could try code:blocks18:53
nsnzeroi have been fighting with eric6 for awhile and to my surprise it has a qt5 designer 18:54
nsnzerobut i cant get it to work as yet 18:54
nsnzerogood night all19:00
theblazehencheers nsnzero 19:00
kulelu88Python has spoiled me from trying to understand how Go compiles code only if your code has a certain directory structure 0.o19:08
Cryterionkulelu88, as far as I know, you don't compile Python19:09
kulelu88Cryterion: semantics :P19:09
theblazehenCryterion: Well, _technically_, yes _you_ don't compile python, but the interpreter does. (Seen .pyc files?)19:14
