| inetpro | ek en myself is nie altyd goeie vriende nie | 10:27 |
| Kilos | hahahaha | 10:28 |

| Kilos | now i had to sit up to answer you | 17:34 |
| Kilos | ai! | 17:34 |
| Kilos | ek sukkel darem met my volk | 17:34 |
| Kilos | ohi superfly | 17:34 |
| superfly | hi Kilos | 17:35 |
| nsnzero | evening all | 17:42 |
| inetpro | Kilos: sorry oom | 18:58 |
| inetpro | hi superfly | 18:58 |
| inetpro | oh and nsnzero as well | 18:59 |
| nsnzero | evening inetpro | 18:59 |
| superfly | mornign inetpro | 19:00 |
| superfly | nsnzero: hi | 19:00 |
| nsnzero | hi there superfly | 19:00 |
| nsnzero | does anyone use or is there a need to use a proxy server ? | 19:03 |
| superfly | What sort of proxy? | 19:06 |
| inetpro | nsnzero: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proxy_server | 19:06 |
| nsnzero | like the free 1's on samairproxy to hide IP - not a caching proxy | 19:07 |
| nsnzero | the site gives IP's but the info on the net show hostname like www.freeproxy.com | 19:08 |
| nsnzero | just cant figure out why the ip's dont work | 19:09 |
| superfly | oh right. proxys are used to get around things like the great firewall of china, or region locking, or just for privacy | 19:09 |
| nsnzero | spot on superfly | 19:10 |
| nsnzero | i dont think our data and surfing habits are monitored here but you can never be to careful | 19:12 |
| inetpro | nsnzero: don't be evil | 19:13 |
| nsnzero | inetpro: i dont want to use it for narfairous - just wanted to try them out | 19:15 |
| nsnzero | i would use tor for that | 19:17 |
| inetpro | I guess there's always more than one way to skin a cat | 19:18 |
| nsnzero | although even tor is not foolproof - just get hold of an exit node and you will be boss | 19:22 |
| MaNI | well theres speculation that tor is at this point completely compromised - depends who you believe I guess :) | 19:24 |
| nsnzero | MaNI: knows his stuff | 19:24 |
| nsnzero | evening MaNI | 19:24 |
| MaNI | I know some stuff, but learn new stuff every day, life is a constant learning curve :) | 19:25 |
| MaNI | evening | 19:25 |
| inetpro | change is the only constant in life | 19:26 |
| MaNI | if you just need to occasionally hide your ip for some web browsing, for basic privacy reasons or to get around a geo-block, opera VPN mode can be a nice easy solution | 19:26 |
| MaNI | it's no good if you are doing something more sensitive than that of course :p | 19:27 |
| nsnzero | i use opera mini for most of my browsing on the android - opera just didnt work on the pc for some reason | 19:28 |
| inetpro | MaNI: oh that is an interesting feature by Opera, thanks for sharing | 19:29 |
| nsnzero | i usually read about 10 to 20 articles before i sleep - opera mini really reduces the bandwith which is nice on capped data bundles | 19:30 |
| MaNI | yeah the data compression for mobile is one of their bigger contributions to the world | 19:36 |
| inetpro | I just installed Opera mini on my phone, will see how it goes after using it a bit | 19:48 |
| inetpro | immediately I'm not very impressed with how it's eating up my battery | 19:48 |
| Kilos | lol | 19:49 |
| inetpro | phone died as I opened it, having said that, my battery was on low | 19:49 |
| inetpro | Kilos: don't laugh, it's not funny | 19:50 |
| inetpro | oh when do we have earth hour even? | 19:54 |
| inetpro | eish! | 19:54 |
| * inetpro missed it | 19:54 | |
| Kilos | opera is a light weight fast browser | 19:56 |
| MaNI | I had an involuntary earth four hour last night so I figure I've already done mine | 19:57 |
| inetpro | Kilos: it kille my phone | 19:57 |
| Kilos | your battery was alread flat man | 19:57 |
| inetpro | actually it wasn't that flat... was still on 20% | 19:58 |
| MaNI | desktop opera is almost identical to chrome for the most part | 19:58 |
| Kilos | i use opera and opera dev | 19:58 |
| inetpro | but it dropped suddenly after running opera | 19:58 |
| Kilos | i think its called that | 19:58 |
| Kilos | great browsers | 19:58 |
| MaNI | I have three browsers open at all times chrome/firefox/opera | 19:59 |
| Kilos | i think chromium is faster than chrome here by me | 20:00 |
| MaNI | sorry chromium not chrome | 20:00 |
| Kilos | ah | 20:01 |
| Kilos | nice browser | 20:01 |
| * inetpro wishing that we could have text only browsers staying up to date with the latest tech | 20:01 | |
| MaNI | each browser for a seperate set of things, to help seperate concerns and minimise risk | 20:01 |
| Kilos | inetpro charge the battery fully and then check what happens | 20:01 |
| MaNI | so chromium has most my work stuff, firefox most my personal stuff, and opera is for some misc. high risk stuff and/or vpn tabs | 20:01 |
| MaNI | hehe | 20:01 |
| inetpro | Kilos: busy charging... will see over time | 20:01 |
| inetpro | too many sites these days depend on javascript | 20:02 |
| inetpro | anyone know of a text mode browser that can run javascript? | 20:03 |
| inetpro | http://www.cnx-software.com/2014/02/09/building-elinks-text-based-web-browser-with-some-sort-of-javascript-support/ | 20:04 |
| MaNI | Links can be compiled with it | 20:04 |
| inetpro | I tried that ^^ this morning | 20:04 |
| MaNI | but they consider it too buggy to keep | 20:04 |
| inetpro | not worth it | 20:04 |
| Kilos | night all of ya. sleep tight | 20:05 |
| inetpro | goeie nagrus Kilos! | 20:05 |
| Kilos | dankie boetie en julle ook | 20:05 |
| MaNI | I think it's pretty much a lost cause sadly, current crop of web developers no longer even know or care about "graceful degradation concepts" | 20:05 |
| inetpro | yep, very sad | 20:06 |
| nsnzero | maybe running your text based browser through a mobile site that converts to wap might work | 20:15 |
| inetpro | nsnzero: sounds like a mission | 20:16 |
| nsnzero | i was looking for a javascript enabled termnal browser for ssh to connect to the router - unfortunately nothing worked | 20:17 |
| nsnzero | textise will convert sites to text only as well | 20:18 |
| nsnzero | https://www.textise.net/ | 20:19 |
| inetpro | nsnzero: "Properly designed websites and web tools can be used by people with disabilities" | 20:20 |
| inetpro | sadly many sites and tools are developed with accessibility barriers that make it very difficult or impossible for some people to use them | 20:20 |
| nsnzero | inetpro: +1 | 20:21 |
| nsnzero | people have forgotten that the interweb/internet was created to share information quickly | 20:22 |
| nsnzero | try newsbeuter for some rss feeds in terminal slashdot and reddit provide some good feeds- if you like text only | 20:27 |
| nsnzero | have a good night all | 20:28 |
