| knightwise | y I seem to be the only person on the planet having a hard time getting my bluetooth mouse to work on ubuntu | 07:29 |
| davmor2 | Morning all | 09:10 |
| foobarry | knightwise: using libinput or synaptics? | 09:17 |
| knightwise | foobarry: the standard bluetooth control panel in ubuntu ? | 09:18 |
| knightwise | I have 2 ms mice lying around and an apple mouse , only one is "visible" and it refuses to pair | 09:18 |
| foobarry | oh ok , so still at the bluetooth stage | 09:18 |
| knightwise | yep | 09:19 |
| foobarry | built in bluetooth receiver? | 09:19 |
| foobarry | or usb dongle? | 09:19 |
| knightwise | built in | 09:20 |
| knightwise | so strange that i cant even get this basic thing working on the xps13 | 09:29 |

| diddledan | MS is getting silly :-p | 11:48 |
| foobarry | does it provide much more than cygwin ? | 11:49 |
| foobarry | i tried installing it on the windows partition on my work laptop i kept for vmware client | 11:49 |
| foobarry | the anniversary update hosed my entire disk and i had to wipe both OS and start again...without windows | 11:50 |
| zmoylan-pi | 'without windows...' so... some improvement then... :-) | 11:51 |
| foobarry | i rarely used it, once every 6 months | 11:52 |
| diddledan | "Tuesday’s debate appeared to confirm that the Government may indeed be on the verge of adopting one of the most bonkers approaches to overzealous Internet censorship.": http://www.ispreview.co.uk/index.php/2016/12/concern-uk-government-ponders-isp-block-twitter-social-media.html | 11:52 |
| foobarry | sites like reddit and twitter do have an awful lot of easy access smut on though | 11:59 |
| foobarry | and hate speech | 12:00 |
| davmor2 | foobarry: it is ubuntu cloud img running on windows effectively so yes it offers much more than cygwin like the whole of the ubuntu repos for a kick off :) | 12:10 |
| diddledan | cygwin is a hack, where the WSL is much more native | 12:12 |
| zmoylan-pi | so once every 6 monthd you waited impatiently for it to pull down and install a massive amount of updates... :-P | 12:13 |
| diddledan | zmoylan-pi: you're pretty much an equal-opportunities Operating System Hater, aren't you? | 12:13 |
| diddledan | :-p | 12:13 |
| zmoylan-pi | of course, i've worked in i.t. :-D | 12:14 |
| diddledan | the every 6 mo thing is a dig against ubuntu afaict. and you have macos. and you hate windows | 12:14 |
| diddledan | hate* | 12:14 |
| zmoylan-pi | nah ubuntu which can be irksome (latest lubuntu wanted me to create an account on ubuntu store just to install vlc) at least during updates can still be used... | 12:15 |
| diddledan | wat? | 12:16 |
| diddledan | you shouldn't need an account to access stuff in the apt repo | 12:16 |
| diddledan | are you sure you weren't installing a snap? | 12:16 |
| zmoylan-pi | what can i tell you.... i think it was a snap... | 12:16 |
| zmoylan-pi | so opened console in anger and 'sudo apt install vlc' | 12:17 |
| diddledan | you should have an account anyway though. it uses launchpad.net for auth | 12:18 |
| foobarry | openid could be a method for proving age | 12:18 |
| foobarry | binary flag child/not child | 12:19 |
| zmoylan-pi | if people in i.t. ask my age i sign the rs232 song from spitting image at them :-P | 12:19 |
| zmoylan-pi | *sing | 12:19 |
| foobarry | sign language might be better | 12:19 |
| zmoylan-pi | not when i sign... :-) | 12:19 |

| diddledan | also, cute kitty: https://twitter.com/EmrgencyKittens/status/809756268961337344 | 13:45 |
| zmoylan-pi | ah yes, fond memories of holding a door open on cold wet winter nights waiting for the cat to decide if their need to use the loo outweighed their need to be warm and dry... | 13:49 |
| foobarry | ah, lvextend and resize2fs online resize is just so awesome | 14:07 |
| diddledan | foobarry: yeah I love that | 14:26 |
| foobarry | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnXD6FRZtn0 my working song this afternoon | 14:40 |

| knightwise | literally dugg up my Eeepc out of the basement | 14:56 |
| foobarry | hmm a mysql db import form another server didn't set the passwords for the user accounts it created | 15:57 |
| BigRedS | just empty fields in mysql.user? | 16:23 |
| BigRedS | that's... odd | 16:23 |
| foobarry | the users were created but passwords not set | 16:27 |
| foobarry | reimported and it didn't work | 16:28 |
| foobarry | mysql 5.5 to mariadb | 16:28 |
| foobarry | shouldn't be a problem though. | 16:28 |
| foobarry | had to use a tool to dump the grant lines by hand | 16:28 |
| BigRedS | yeah, so what was in the password fields of mysql.user? | 16:40 |
| foobarry | some hash, but actually they were blank | 16:46 |
| foobarry | mysql -u user worked without password | 16:46 |
| foobarry | the original server had real passwords | 16:46 |
| foobarry | weird | 16:46 |
| diddledan | foobarry: that's an impressive performance in the video | 17:06 |
| foobarry | nice isn't it? | 17:06 |
| diddledan | aye | 17:07 |

| daftykins | zmoylan-pi: have you seen the big news!? http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_150-8475.php | 22:40 |
| zmoylan-pi | i saw that but it's s30 so no java apps | 22:41 |
| zmoylan-pi | i do have lower limits. :-D | 22:41 |
| daftykins | :O | 22:41 |
| * daftykins sends this news to The Register | 22:41 | |
| zmoylan-pi | s40 gives me java apps. so i can use albite for ereader, jirc for irc, midpssh for ssh... | 22:42 |
| zmoylan-pi | but it is good to see they are targetting the lower end of the market. judging by dublin bus pics of lost and found there are usually a few old dumb nokias that can now be replaced with new dumb nokias :-) | 22:45 |
| daftykins | well folks... http://i.imgur.com/SEuWN76.jpg | 23:06 |
| zmoylan-pi | o/ | 23:18 |
| zmoylan-pi | sleep well | 23:18 |
