| SuperMatt | morning | 08:51 |
| foobarry | i bought an itunes voucher many years ago, and had to create an appleid | 09:01 |
| foobarry | keep getting attempts to login the account so i wanted to remove it...doesn't seem possible | 09:02 |
| popey | you have to ask them to remove it I think | 09:03 |
| foobarry | sigh | 09:03 |
| popey | oh, you might be able to from within itunes | 09:04 |
| popey | but that means installing itunes | 09:04 |
| SuperMatt | Vendor lock in? What vendor lock in? | 09:04 |
| foobarry | We are unable to complete your request at this time. Please try again or come back later. | 09:04 |
| foobarry | thats the support page | 09:04 |
| foobarry | and a spinning whell. just like using a mac | 09:05 |
| foobarry | they have to call me :( | 09:12 |
| foobarry | oh the shame when i had to answer my comical security questions on the phone | 09:15 |
| foobarry | ..should i say flippant | 09:16 |
| SuperMatt | "What's your favourite operating system?" | 09:16 |
| foobarry | been passed to senior adviser | 09:19 |
| foobarry | "you don't have any plans to have any apple stuff in the future?" | 09:19 |
| SuperMatt | because you said your favourite is Linux? | 09:19 |
| foobarry | "your account will be locked forever" | 09:19 |
| SuperMatt | I have to use a mac for work, and it's just terrible. For instance, there's no option for the dock to intellihide | 09:20 |
| SuperMatt | It's either hidden all the time of visible all the time | 09:20 |
| knightwise | morning | 09:21 |
| foobarry | "are you currently involved in legal action against apple" | 09:22 |
| foobarry | i get the impression not many people do this | 09:24 |
| SuperMatt | heh | 09:36 |
| knightwise | Ya-a--a-awn | 09:43 |
| foobarry | does retro pie work oOK with pi zero? | 09:51 |
| foobarry | was thinking of getting some of these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-X-Wired-USB-SNES-Controller-Retro-Gaming-Joypad-Joystick-Gamepad-For-Nintendo-/162281751335?hash=item25c8bf0327:g:8JEAAOSwcLxYKyg8 | 09:53 |
| davmor2 | Morning all | 09:58 |
| popey | foobarry: i use a pi3 but any pi will do for retropie | 10:32 |
| popey | I have 8bitdo bluetooth controllers with my pi3. works a treat | 10:32 |
| foobarry | quite expensive? | 10:39 |
| popey | they're more expensive than the cheapo wired ones on ebay, yeah | 10:39 |
| popey | search for 8bitdo | 10:44 |
| popey | they're quality devices | 10:44 |
| foobarry | been enjoying star wars pinball on android over the weekend, but got bad headaches | 11:00 |
| zmoylan-pi | the game occupying my time is pixel dungeon, a roguealike variamt thats fairly hard | 11:22 |
| === zmoylan-1i is now known as zmoylan-pi | ||
| === alan_g is now known as alan_g|lunch | ||
| knightwise | hmmm. is it possible that i need to upgrade my xps firmware to get bluetooth to work ? ? | 13:10 |
| knightwise | cant connect a single bluetooth mouse | 13:10 |
| zmoylan-pi | do any other bt devices work? | 13:11 |
| zmoylan-pi | send a file from a phone etc. | 13:11 |
| knightwise | i havent been able to pair my bluetooth speakers so far | 13:12 |
| knightwise | tried an apple mouse and 2 bluetooth models | 13:12 |
| zmoylan-pi | it may have a limited bt feature set, try sending receiving a file from a phone. one of the more basic services | 13:12 |
| zmoylan-pi | but it doesn't look good | 13:12 |
| knightwise | :( Hmmm | 13:13 |
| knightwise | gonna google some more , see if i can find something out | 13:13 |
| knightwise | https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2323373 | 13:16 |
| knightwise | hmm. downloading firmware from a dropbox like . rrrr | 13:17 |
| foobarry | knightwise: borrow a BT usb adapter from someone | 13:33 |
| knightwise | foobarry: gonna try that | 13:33 |
| knightwise | see if that works | 13:33 |
| ali1234 | sending a file from a phone over bluetooth is a bad test because it is explicitly broken | 13:58 |
| ali1234 | the feature was maintained by gnome so they removed it without writing a replacement | 13:59 |
| * zmoylan-pi makes a note to check what's doing the transfer next time i bt to a laptop | 14:04 | |

| Rixon | Hi there, I've been following a guide to pivot_root so I can shrink my root fs+lvm and grow my var fs+lvm, I got as far as copying the necessary parts into tmpfs and restarting all the services, fuser -vm and lsof both roport nothing holding onto /oldroot but I still can't umount it =( I saw a suggestion that /oldroot/boot might still be mounted, but it's not | 14:23 |
| Rixon | any ideas on what to investigate if fuser -vm and lsof both have nothing left to tell me? | 14:25 |
| diddledan | Rixon: what about /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys and any other mountpoints? | 14:47 |
| diddledan | Rixon: I'd recommend doing the resize in a live-boot environment rather than off your working installation | 14:48 |
| Rixon | diddledan: unfortunately we have no physical access to the machine, so no liveCD trickery, hence the online resize | 14:53 |
| Rixon | /dev, /proc, /sys and /run are all in tmpfs now and pivot_root worked fine | 14:53 |
| diddledan | yes but did you unmount the old locations? | 14:54 |
| Rixon | aaaah it looks like umount -a didn't catch them because they were still busy - thanks I think I should be able to pick it up from there ;) | 14:55 |
| Rixon | dunno how I didn't see that haha | 14:58 |
| daftykins | diddledan: i see your cat links and i raise you... | 17:06 |
| daftykins | kittens in 4K! https://www.dropbox.com/s/50xmsuxadlinsy7/VID_20161219_133034.mp4?dl=0 | 17:06 |
| diddledan | naww, cute kitties | 17:46 |
| daftykins | adding to the 2 year old son and wee dog, bit crazy that place now :> | 17:47 |
| daftykins | ooh i just tried a bit more of Tron: Legacy out on the LG OLED, sooo nice looking \o/ | 17:48 |
| diddledan | \o/ | 17:48 |
| daftykins | with any luck the 2017 models will be cheaper ;) | 17:48 |
| daftykins | i could totally move up from a 55" to a 65" ;) | 17:49 |
| davmor2 | daftykins: awwwwwwwwwwwwww | 18:01 |
| daftykins | =] | 18:08 |
| diddledan | I'm curious if anyone thinks snap could replace rather than compliment something like docker | 18:44 |
| diddledan | (or lxd) | 18:45 |
| diddledan | there's some kind of similarities in containers and snap's confinement model but implemented using different tech | 18:45 |
| diddledan | and if not replace, how do you see snap complimenting docker or vicky verky | 18:46 |
| davmor2 | diddledan: there is a very nice summary that mark did let me see if I can find it | 18:55 |
| diddledan | \o/ | 18:55 |
| diddledan | thankyou :-) | 18:56 |
| * diddledan checks shuttleworth.com | 18:56 | |
| diddledan | apparently mark is into integrated product handling solutions :-p | 18:56 |
| davmor2 | diddledan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0z3yusiCOCk | 18:57 |
| diddledan | lol @ docker and apt-get had a baby | 18:58 |
| zmoylan-pi | a frankenstein kill it with fire baby... | 18:59 |
| diddledan | don't you love that mark has to have a label telling people he's mark shuttleworth? :-p | 18:59 |
| davmor2 | zmoylan-pi: besides the slide it's actually a good talk :) | 18:59 |
| zmoylan-pi | could you pick top 20 silican valley faces out of a police line up? :-) | 19:01 |
| diddledan | well it depends whether I saw them actually commit the murder or not | 19:01 |
| zmoylan-pi | they wouldn't murder, they'd violate a eula :-P | 19:02 |
| diddledan | even worse | 19:02 |
| davmor2 | diddledan: hope that helps resolve your issue for you :) | 19:02 |
| diddledan | they might violate the GPL! | 19:02 |
| * diddledan watching it | 19:03 | |
| zmoylan-pi | gpl 1, 2 or 3, or lgpl? there's not a lot gpl in that... | 19:03 |
| davmor2 | zmoylan-pi: it's one project where bits touch all of the above ;) | 19:08 |
| diddledan | while we're talking about docker, I spun-up a few containers to support ubulog.com | 19:35 |
| diddledan | there's two elasticsearch containers, a web container, and a kibana container (for my use only) | 19:37 |
| diddledan | oh and a logstash container | 19:37 |
| diddledan | knew there was one I was forgetting :-p | 19:37 |
| diddledan | aah, and another container collecting the logs in the first place | 19:38 |
| diddledan | so that's 5 containers and 1 kibana container | 19:39 |
| diddledan | this guy's getting silly with it : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4gH7e3mvFM (same conference as davmor2's link to Mark's explanation of snap vs docker) | 19:44 |
