| diplo | Trying to svn+ssh on a new install, want to use a priv key fron my machine ( already put pub on svn server ) | 15:13 |
| diplo | oops focus on wrong screen :P | 15:13 |
| diplo | Fixed it (need to except the key manually, need to work around that now! ) and also help is you type /var/www and not /var/wwww | 15:23 |
| diddledan | popey: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C4M_0_UUYAE_LNe.jpg:large | 15:26 |
| popey | diddledan: haha, love that | 15:34 |
| diddledan | lol, I didn't mean to target that to you, was meant as a general for everyone :-p | 15:34 |
| diddledan | oops @ tabfail | 15:35 |
| daftykins | eat both! | 15:35 |
| daftykins | yay my mums boot-looping LG G4 is going back under a 2 year warranty | 15:35 |
| diddledan | daftykins: what does bear taste like? | 15:35 |
| daftykins | it's the CPU cores desoldering apparently | 15:35 |
| diddledan | \o/ | 15:35 |
| diddledan | I've got an intel ATOM cpu which is gonna have to go back when asrock acknowledge the problem (it's a flaw in the atom that causes complete failure after 18 or so months of use) | 15:36 |
| diddledan | ref: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/02/06/cisco_intel_decline_to_link_product_warning_to_faulty_chip/ | 15:37 |
| daftykins | ja, whats yours in? | 15:37 |
| diddledan | on an asrock mobo | 15:37 |
| diddledan | self-build nas | 15:37 |
| daftykins | SFF PC though or wha? | 15:37 |
| daftykins | oic | 15:38 |
| diddledan | this jobbie: http://www.asrockrack.com/general/productdetail.asp?Model=C2750D4I | 15:38 |
| daftykins | funky | 15:39 |
| ali1234 | 18 months? that's terrible. loads of people will just think it died without knowing why | 15:40 |
| diddledan | yeah | 15:40 |
| daftykins | well it's in the docs now | 15:41 |
| ali1234 | hey popey, i just found out about your "double click URl in gnome-terminal" problem | 16:55 |
| ali1234 | xfce4-terminal and terminator have a setting for double click chars, it looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/n9cvqqc.png | 16:55 |
| ali1234 | they both include ":" so it matches the whole URL | 16:55 |
| ali1234 | gnome-terminal either removed this setting or never had it, and they don't include ":" in their defaults | 16:56 |
| ali1234 | but looks like you can change it directly in the dconf: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/290544/double-click-selection-in-gnome-terminal | 16:57 |
| Laney | or right click and copy url | 17:39 |
| davmor2 | or right click and open url :) | 17:44 |
| Laney | depends what you want to do | 17:57 |
| davmor2 | Laney: indeed | 17:58 |
| marshmn | I don't know much about "WiFi Direct"; but I have a printer that supports it; what I'd like to know is, if I have a laptop connected to regular WiFi - and then I want to print from the printer using WiFi Direct, does that mean I'll have to drop my regular WiFi connection in order to do that? | 17:59 |
| * Laney copies davmor2 to the clipboard | 17:59 | |
| marshmn | I'm assuming that it works by the printer having it's on WiFi AP in it basically? | 18:00 |
| marshmn | perhaps if I plug a USB WiFi dongle into the laptop then I can have two WiFi connections - one to the regular WiFi and one to the WiFi Direct printer? | 18:00 |
| daftykins | marshmn: yes you have to hop network | 18:01 |
| marshmn | ok | 18:01 |
| davmor2 | NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO | 18:01 |
| daftykins | but if the printer has this feature, can it not just go *on* your wifi network? | 18:01 |
| daftykins | because that'd be more common... | 18:02 |
| marshmn | daftykins: yes, that's possible - I'm just trying to understand the options right now; it's a mobile printer so there is the additional hassle of having to get that added to the WiFi network at the venue (as well as laptop etc.) | 18:03 |
| marshmn | but it's certainly an option | 18:03 |
| daftykins | if you did employ a USB wifi dongle, you could use the packages that let you run one as an access point - then have the printer configured to join that | 18:03 |
| marshmn | yeah, was also thinking that | 18:04 |
| daftykins | then instead of you hopping to the printer, the printer joins you (when the device is plugged in) | 18:04 |
| marshmn | yeah | 18:04 |
| marshmn | I think I might go that way | 18:04 |
| daftykins | though i'd sooner put a cable in | 18:04 |
| marshmn | which is another option :) | 18:04 |
| diddledan | I always shove my dongle in ports | 18:04 |
| marshmn | you should ask permission first | 18:06 |
| daftykins | ^ and at least buy dinner | 18:06 |
| diddledan | when is pulseaudio getting put into systemd? *duck* | 19:33 |
| diddledan | I just heard tar is getting put in now (ref: bsdnow) | 19:34 |
| diddledan | it's gonna be called tard | 19:34 |
| davmor2 | diddledan: man we just need and is command and we can time travel | 19:36 |
| diddledan | lol | 19:36 |
| diddledan | also is wayland getting put in systemd yet? | 19:37 |
| diddledan | giant lizards are invading: https://twitter.com/spookperson/status/829777392038182913 | 19:43 |
| popey | ali1234: yeah, they removed it :( | 19:44 |
| popey | silly rabbits | 19:44 |
| davmor2 | diddledan: that's not a lizard that's just a really bad rendition of snakes on a plane where the sfx guy need to scale down the snake | 19:45 |
| popey | ali1234: that worked, magic, thank you :) | 19:45 |
| ali1234 | popey: i just mentioned it to some xfce terminal devs cos they were discussing https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=854585 | 19:46 |
| lubotu3 | Debian bug 854585 in evilvte "evilvte: Allows executing (unexpected) commands via mouse-clicks" [Important,Open] | 19:46 |
| ali1234 | apparently it does not affect xfce4-terminal as they used the url regex from gnome-terminal | 19:46 |
| ali1234 | and they told me about the double click chars thing | 19:47 |
| ali1234 | funny bug though... arbitrary code execution by clicking on a url | 19:47 |
| popey | oops | 19:59 |
| ali1234 | and that's why you don't right click -> open i suppose | 20:00 |
| diddledan | did ubuntubsd die? https://www.ubuntubsd.org/ | 21:05 |
| daftykins | check the channel? | 21:07 |
| * diddledan looks-out over the solent | 21:07 | |
| diddledan | there's a lot of seafog | 21:08 |
| * daftykins waves a flag on the northern tip of the island | 21:08 | |
| diddledan | aren't you supposed to flash a torch in a special pattern? | 21:08 |
| daftykins | well that proved to be too distracting to the series of opera singers which stand on the coastline singing out to provide our off-island data links | 21:09 |
| diddledan | lmao | 21:10 |
| diddledan | I thought they were for when it's foggy | 21:10 |
| daftykins | they're the upgrade to the fires, yip | 21:13 |
| daftykins | the torch batteries were proving prohibitively expensive | 21:14 |
| zmoylan-pi | pfft, in ireland in 70s we tried nuclear batteries for our lighthouses... :-) | 21:21 |
| zmoylan-pi | good enough for space probes, good enough for remote unoccupied wastelands | 21:21 |
| diddledan | green light | 21:21 |
| diddledan | why is green assumed for radiation/toxic stuff | 21:22 |
| diddledan | ? | 21:22 |
| zmoylan-pi | maybe because of radium watch dials which glowed green? | 21:23 |
| zmoylan-pi | and killed a few people who used to paint watch dials. now if you bring in ancient watches from that time they can be treated as toxic waste | 21:25 |
| daftykins | D: | 21:25 |
| diddledan | I had a toy car with that in the windows to make it glow | 21:25 |
| diddledan | least I assume it was the same stuff | 21:26 |
| zmoylan-pi | i think by the time they stopped using it in 70s they used a lot lot less | 21:26 |
| zmoylan-pi | now lick your lead paint and shush... :-P | 21:26 |
| daftykins | diddledan: come help me remove this funny dust insulation stuff... | 21:27 |
| daftykins | it smells funny | 21:27 |
| diddledan | speaking of which, my flat is gonna have an asbestos survey in the foreseeable | 21:28 |
| zmoylan-pi | and we lose 1000s every year from radon gas now that we build insulated homes with no draughts to flush the gas | 21:28 |
| daftykins | but i like playing draughts | 21:29 |
| * zmoylan-pi lived in house with such draughts in winter that i made a kite out of a postage stamp and flew it indoors for amusement... | 21:30 | |
| zmoylan-pi | the long winter nights really flew when you had a postage stamp kite... :-P | 21:34 |
| diddledan | lol | 21:34 |
| diddledan | they were simpler times | 21:34 |
| daftykins | :D | 21:35 |
| zmoylan-pi | it was also at the time building model gliders out of wood veneer and greaseproof paper | 21:35 |
| diddledan | I'm guessing you didn't have electricity even | 21:35 |
| daftykins | with that supply he could've had an indoor wind farm! | 21:35 |
| diddledan | I had one of those | 21:35 |
| diddledan | I never built it | 21:35 |
| zmoylan-pi | well one of my gliders was powered by a rubber band motor i built into a bic pen tube using an icecream wooden spoon as a propeller... | 21:36 |
| daftykins | action shot of zmoylan-pi https://image.shutterstock.com/z/stock-photo-old-man-in-aviator-goggles-200487461.jpg | 21:42 |
| diddledan | isn't that one of the chuckle brothers? | 21:44 |
| daftykins | :D | 21:46 |
| ali1234 | radium does glow green. but modern glow-in-the-dark stuff is not (as) radioactive | 22:07 |
| ali1234 | it doesn't work the same way... if you ever noticed that glow-in-the-dark items have to be "charged up" by putting them in light, that is why | 22:08 |
| ali1234 | radium doesn't need that | 22:09 |
| diddledan | popey: what happened to popey.com? | 22:10 |
| * diddledan just spotted your keybase id shows it as unreachable - tried accessing myself and you're offline :-( | 22:10 | |
| diddledan | ali1234: aah | 22:11 |
| ali1234 | some glow-in-the-dark stuff does still use radioactivity, but it uses tritium instead of radium | 22:11 |
| ali1234 | and its pretty rare | 22:11 |
| ali1234 | in fact radium doesn't glow green at all | 22:12 |
| ali1234 | it's the phosphors that do that | 22:12 |
| ali1234 | when bombarded with radiation | 22:12 |
| ali1234 | so radioactive waste glowing green is a 100% myth :) | 22:13 |
| zmoylan-pi | some articles describe a lot of different colours from a lot of different materials | 22:15 |
| ali1234 | yes, phosphors dont have to be green | 22:15 |
| ali1234 | but they are usually the brightest | 22:15 |
| ali1234 | CRTs have red green and blue phosphors in them :) | 22:15 |
| * zmoylan-pi puts duct tape over the glowing blue radiation as it's so bloody annoying... :-P | 22:16 | |
| ali1234 | also high power LED lights work by having a blue LED illuminating phosphors which then re-emit the energy as white light | 22:16 |
| ali1234 | because blue LEDs are the brightest | 22:17 |
| ali1234 | this is also why LED lights glow for a bit after you turn them off | 22:18 |
| ali1234 | the phosphors are still "charged" | 22:18 |
| diddledan | https://twitter.com/wesgeorge/status/829822138039336960 | 22:41 |
| daftykins | yay at the telco support guy sorting out the certificate to restore functionality | 22:50 |
| daftykins | he also said kudos for using Linux, but i tricked him! | 22:50 |
| zmoylan-pi | in daftykins pc's linux uses you... :-P | 22:50 |
| daftykins | i do have servers and VMs :P | 22:53 |
| zmoylan-pi | did you say shiboleet? http://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/806:_Tech_Support | 23:00 |
| daftykins | >:D | 23:02 |
| daftykins | i just put in a few comments to ensure i wouldn't get the usual browser cache clearing rubbish response | 23:03 |
| daftykins | diddledan: also, a much delayed "To me, to you" is in order | 23:06 |
| zmoylan-pi | i put episodes of star trek on in the background. it really gets their attention focused... :-) | 23:07 |
| diddledan | I sleep to the sounds of a warp reactor | 23:08 |
| daftykins | easy, B'elanna | 23:08 |
| diddledan | she was soo gorgeous | 23:08 |
| diddledan | those forehead ridges were to die for | 23:08 |
| daftykins | pff i thought you were going to say you saw the one where she's human | 23:09 |
| zmoylan-pi | i never really liked b'elanna. she wasn't klingony enough to my mind | 23:09 |
| diddledan | while I love Jeri Ryan, I don't really get the love for the 7of9 character | 23:09 |
| diddledan | her story was interesting, however | 23:10 |
| daftykins | i'm on a watch through on season 2 right now, so she's not turned up | 23:10 |
| zmoylan-pi | she was a human who'd missed out on childhood and was trying to work out how to be a human | 23:10 |
| daftykins | Janeway should have made her serve tea on the bridge | 23:10 |
| diddledan | she can sang! | 23:10 |
| daftykins | did you guys see the 2016 film 'Arrival' ? that was neat | 23:11 |
| diddledan | oh me darlin', oh me darlin' | 23:11 |
| diddledan | not yet | 23:11 |
| diddledan | really wanna see it though | 23:11 |
| zmoylan-pi | i recently watched enterprise again for first time in years. made it all the way through. it has finally grown on me... or there's not enough good sci fi on elsewhere... | 23:11 |
| daftykins | ah har | 23:12 |
| daftykins | i have some but never tried | 23:12 |
| zmoylan-pi | though they did wayyyyy to much t'pol in the decontamination room | 23:12 |
| daftykins | but she was very, very contaminated | 23:12 |
| diddledan | I really wanna watch season 2 of the expanse. it's started in the US in the past couple of weeks, I think? | 23:13 |
| daftykins | yep | 23:13 |
| daftykins | i'm not sure i even finished s1 properly, but yeah it showed some promise | 23:13 |
| zmoylan-pi | i tried the first episode of the expanse and while it impressed me it didn't make me watch the rest of the season | 23:13 |
| zmoylan-pi | i'll probably go back to it when i can binge watch | 23:13 |
| diddledan | they actually use real physical space flight | 23:13 |
| daftykins | https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/02/09/mac_malware_rash/ :D | 23:14 |
| zmoylan-pi | that impressed me in first episode of the bird flying in zero g | 23:14 |
| diddledan | none of this "go. stop. now come around the back like a fighterjet" | 23:14 |
| diddledan | damn, daftykins, now I need to go wash my mac in soapy water! | 23:15 |
| zmoylan-pi | i learned all my space fighting skills in elite... leave engine at 50% and constantly changing direction threw off the enemies aim a lot allowing you to plug them :-P | 23:15 |
| diddledan | https://www.countable.us/articles/237-preliminary-impeachment-inquiry-filed-president-trump | 23:16 |
| daftykins | ooh my | 23:17 |
| diddledan | it's getting crazy over there | 23:17 |
| ali1234 | the best tactic in eleite: stop as soon as pirates are on your scanner and snipe them. you have far better range than they do | 23:18 |
| zmoylan-pi | it will go nowhere with the republican majority | 23:18 |
| diddledan | also the 9th circuit just ruled that the arab-nation/muslim ban must remain blocked | 23:18 |
| zmoylan-pi | but but... it's not as chaotic and fighty as my method ali1234!! :-) | 23:18 |
| daftykins | huh? block the ban? :P | 23:18 |
| ali1234 | you can also avoid them entirely by not flying to the planet in a straight line | 23:18 |
| diddledan | daftykins: ban^2 | 23:18 |
| diddledan | ban the ban! | 23:19 |
| zmoylan-pi | so if they block the block that blocked the ban does achmed get welcomed in customs? :-/ | 23:19 |
| daftykins | hit it square in the ban! | 23:19 |
| diddledan | ouch | 23:19 |
| diddledan | that sounds nasty | 23:19 |
| zmoylan-pi | english can be such an inpercise language at times... | 23:20 |
| diddledan | I'll have you know my thingy is perfectly fine! | 23:20 |
| zmoylan-pi | it's his doohickey that's wonky | 23:21 |
| daftykins | a good workman doesn't blame his tools, zmoylan-pi! | 23:21 |
| zmoylan-pi | well you use windows so what would be the point... :-P | 23:22 |
| diddledan | haha | 23:22 |
| diddledan | that's a good one | 23:22 |
| daftykins | :P | 23:22 |
| ali1234 | as for trump. republicans would be quite happy to see him gone and have pence instead. they are just waiting for the public to turn first. | 23:23 |
| zmoylan-pi | i dunno, there's a large mad section of trump supporters who'd gut the republicans if they tried that | 23:24 |
| ali1234 | no, that group is not as large as everyone thinks. they are just super loud | 23:24 |
| zmoylan-pi | and republicans fear loud | 23:24 |
| ali1234 | not really. trump is pretty much guaranteed to mess up seriously at some point | 23:25 |
| ali1234 | he will lose widespread support at that point | 23:25 |
| zmoylan-pi | considering what he's done so far and hasn't had much republicans standing up to him, i'm not so sure | 23:25 |
| ali1234 | the hardcore will still love him, but they are a tiny group, like the tea party was | 23:26 |
| ali1234 | republicans won't stand up to him until *after* he messes up | 23:26 |
| ali1234 | he is doing bad stuff, but so far there has been no real bad results from it | 23:26 |
| ali1234 | when it happens, it will be over something that's not part of his rhetoric and completely unexpected | 23:30 |
| zmoylan-pi | his tweeting about melanias business dealings may be one of the straws | 23:31 |
| ali1234 | yeah, but not the final one. it will be used against him when the time comes though | 23:31 |
| diddledan | and in the shenanigans news department we have: https://www.tripwire.com/state-of-security/featured/french-man-sues-uber-after-privacy-bug-led-wife-to-suspect-adultery/ | 23:32 |
| zmoylan-pi | his not been in the situation room for the raid in yemen will be another | 23:32 |
| ali1234 | they're building a case against him for sure | 23:32 |
| ali1234 | but they need a slam dunk to convince the population, not just a load of "minor" things | 23:32 |
| ali1234 | once they have that he'll be gone so fast it makes the last two weeks look pedestrian | 23:33 |
| zmoylan-pi | they that live by the cloud find their data is used to hurt them later... not as catchy as die by the cloud but what the hey... | 23:33 |
| zmoylan-pi | it won't be fasst. it will take 2 years or so once the snowball starts rolling of legal shenanigans | 23:33 |
| daftykins | find their shirts are wrinkled by the cloud...? :) | 23:34 |
| zmoylan-pi | but i mentioned placing a bet in bookies of trump not lasting the 4 years and someone in another channel had already checked and the odds been offered were not good | 23:35 |
| ali1234 | bookies never offer good odds :) | 23:35 |
| zmoylan-pi | there were even allowing for that not good | 23:35 |
| ali1234 | not surprising. might be worth making the opposite bet. at least then you have something to look forward to either wway | 23:35 |
| diddledan | "and God said unto Moses 'Come Forth', but he came fifth, and got his money back" | 23:42 |

| diddledan | WordPress arbitrary post creation exploit gets a new twist: https://blog.sucuri.net/2017/02/rce-attempts-against-the-latest-wordpress-rest-api-vulnerability.html | 23:53 |
| diddledan | the T-man has replied! https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/829836231802515457 | 23:55 |
| diddledan | presumably that's about the 9th circuit decision | 23:55 |
| daftykins | i wanted it to read 'at steak' | 23:56 |
| diddledan | that would have been gold | 23:56 |
| zmoylan-pi | well it will the papers busy... | 23:58 |
| diddledan | will it now?! | 23:59 |
| diddledan | I've often willed the papers busy | 23:59 |
