Kiloshi nsnzero 09:04
Kilosand pavlushka 09:04
MaNIsounds like you've done things backwards, you are meant to need a server for something, and then get one, not get one and then try and figure out a need :p09:05
pavlushkalol09:06
nsnzerolol mani - that just me 09:06
Kiloshaha been there done that twice, steup servers then have no use for them09:07

nsnzero_i have the same problem Kilos- 09:17
=== Kilos- is now known as Kilos
pavlushkansnzero: setup a web server there and start web developing09:41
inetpronsnzero: you have a solution looking for a problem?09:42
pavlushkarofl09:42
inetpronsnzero: let's not discourage you, people often become famous for having just one really good idea, among a lifetime of bad ones09:47
inetproif a bad idea is handled well, it can become a useful thing for all involved09:47
MaNIif you still haven't found a use for it within a month just give me root access and I'll put it to use :p09:55
kulelu88free server? where?09:55
jeritDon't suppose you guys would be willing to help me with a course I'm doing? All I need is for you to have a bit of a bitch session with me about things that have pissed you off recently with service providers or retail stores, etc. I want to know how you feel you're currently being underserved in the market and how you wish providers in that market would do things better11:20
jeritor you can tell me about markets that you can't consume in for whatever reason11:20
* Kilos looks around, maybe i was disconnected and that didnt show11:29
Kilosjerit ?11:29
jerithey?11:32
Kilos i cant consume in the kitchen, its too far to walk11:32
jeritI'm trying to find needs and gaps in markets where NEEDS are ways where current customers of a market are being underserved and GAPS represent opportunities to appeal to new customers who aren't being served in that market11:33
Kilosi am sure everyone or just about everyone isnt satisfied with isp's not providing what they promise11:33
jeritWell that's one market at least. I'm not limiting this to any particular market though11:33
Kilosno give a broad list 11:34
jeritMy assignment says I need to come up with 10 ideas out of these needs and gaps and then submit a problem statement for my favorite idea11:34
Kilossjoe11:35
jeritThe idea here is that this idea and problem statement will be the basis on which to start a company11:35
jeritby addressing the need or filling the gap in the market11:36
MaNII hate that I can't have an electric car, because nobody wants to provide affordable electric cars ;)11:50
Kiloslol11:50
MaNIhow about a company that buys old second hand cars, and converts them into electric ones11:51
jeritI'll put that on my list :)13:16
Kiloshi exupboy welcome to ubuntu-za15:07
KilosMaaz coffee on15:18
* Maaz washes some mugs15:18
KilosMaNI how far did you get putting up your solar panel15:18
MaazCoffee's ready for Kilos!15:22
KilosMaaz danke15:24
MaazBitteschön15:24
MaNIKilos-, they are in my garden but still not on my roof, heh17:19
nsnzeroevening all17:29
magellanichi, regarding that cloud budget, it is not a hard limit, just there to alert you on spend17:34
nsnzerohi magellanic - > got a server for myself now17:35
magellaniccool, which provider?17:35
nsnzeroits mine - nothing fancy though17:36
magellanicalso, not sure how granular the checks are, I set a budget for $1, it alerted me when I had already spent $16 :p17:36
nsnzero$16 is quite a bit higher than $117:40
magellanicyeah heh, it's not granular enough for a $1 budget17:41
nsnzeronow  wonder if i put a vm on it and open up the vm to the net - will it be more secure than running the box alone ?17:43
nsnzeroie port forwarding to the vm only - or does the vm present more security risks ?17:43
magellanicI think it adds insulation but then you sacrifice with resources17:44
magellanicother option is containers, but who knows how security battle tested those are17:45
nsnzeronot running anything on it at the moment - its got 16G ram17:46
nsnzeronot sure how to use containers as yet17:55
magellanicdocker would be simplest17:55
nsnzeroi will have to read up on it - i confused docker with the dock used by os's like mac os 17:57
inetprogood evening18:49
Kiloscellc signal worse than ever and mtn and telkom towers both went down in the last hour19:31
Kilosi go sleep19:31
