| foobarry_ | firefox tab separation doesn't seem to have achieved anything. whole browser still freezes :( | 07:45 |
|---|---|---|
| === foobarry_ is now known as foobarry | ||
| SuperMatt | Stop going to whichever site is causing it to freeze then | 07:49 |
| SuperMatt | I haven't had firefox freeze on me for yonks | 07:49 |
| foobarry | its random | 08:06 |
| davmor2 | Morning all | 08:06 |
| diplo | Plugins issues foobarry ? I like SuperMatt don't have any freezes on a sub par laptop. Maybe try a fresh profile and see if that helps ? | 08:16 |
| diplo | I run the 64bit version though if that makes a difference | 08:16 |
| foobarry | thats the thing | 08:16 |
| foobarry | the profile needs purging every now and then | 08:16 |
| foobarry | its a pain | 08:17 |
| SuperMatt | Something's wrong with what you're doing | 08:17 |
| SuperMatt | stop doing that | 08:17 |
| foobarry | 50+ tabs? | 08:17 |
| diplo | I never do mine :) | 08:17 |
| foobarry | thats work innit | 08:17 |
| diplo | I rarely have that many in Firefox, more like 10-15 and then I start closing them | 08:17 |
| foobarry | wasn't there a tool to copy the useful bits to a new profile and clean it up? | 08:17 |
| diplo | I'd probably say that's more of the issue than anything else. | 08:17 |
| foobarry | the sqlite dbs get munged up | 08:18 |
| brobostigon | morning boys and girls. | 08:50 |
| foobarry | Cleaning urlclassifier3.sqlite done -18.56 Mbytes | 09:05 |

| foobarry | profile cleaner doing its thing | 09:05 |
| foobarry | Profile(s) for firefox reduced by 43.93 Mbytes. | 09:06 |
| diplo | Can't say I've ever looked at something to do that | 09:08 |
| diplo | I do run ccleaner occasionally and that's about it on my windows box | 09:08 |

| JamesTait | Good morning all! Hapy Friday, and happy Hairball Awareness Day! 😃 🐈 | 09:10 |
| diplo | Cheers! | 09:11 |
| davmor2 | tempted to just link to smellycat and say I'm done :D | 09:12 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: ^ | 09:12 |
| JamesTait | davmor2, Tom Jones? | 09:13 |
| JamesTait | What's New Pussy Cat? | 09:13 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: Smellycat is funnier | 09:13 |
| JamesTait | *hack* *hack* *wheeze* *splat* | 09:13 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5bBKsH0s5E | 09:15 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: only song I can think of that mentions a hairball | 09:19 |
| JamesTait | Good job, davmor2. ☺ | 09:20 |
| JamesTait | davmor2, how could I have forgotten Ed Balls Day? :-O | 09:37 |

| JamesTait | davmor2, he's a lot better than I'll ever be! | 09:42 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: put a smile on my face and I don't watch it, my wifes aunt pointed it out to me but I do like awilkins too but he beat me to the song :D | 09:44 |
| JamesTait | We're doing well on the video front today. | 09:44 |
| foobarry | sigh, deleting slack channel messages 100 at a time... | 10:28 |
| SuperMatt | can't be done in one fell swoop? | 10:41 |
| * davmor2 hits the button to trigger global thermal nuclear war to kill all the slack channels.......there easy :D | 10:45 | |
| foobarry | found a tool on github to do it | 10:48 |
| foobarry | you can only delete 1 or 100 messages at a time. | 10:49 |
| SuperMatt | If corp ever decide to delete my team's slack channel, they're going to send a lot of time going through animated gifs of kittens | 10:50 |
| foobarry | we are realising rather late than #general is bad | 10:51 |
| foobarry | when you want to add the users you abused at a later stage | 10:51 |
| foobarry | or lets say the inappropriate comments about eating noises | 10:52 |
| foobarry | slack are gonna have to change their pricing model , its ridiculous | 10:57 |
| davmor2 | SuperMatt: hahahahahaha | 10:58 |
| foobarry | tried that new thunderbird theme shown on omg | 11:17 |
| foobarry | with a few tweaks, its nice | 11:17 |
| SuperMatt | I'll just keep on using google inbox | 11:17 |
| SuperMatt | it works exactly how I need an email client to work | 11:18 |
| foobarry | on an always-on desktop at work, tb seems to give a more tangible feel to mail | 11:18 |
| * davmor2 hugs claws mail | 11:18 | |
| SuperMatt | TBH, I think email needs to go the way of the dodo, but figuring out something to replace it isn't easy | 11:19 |
| foobarry | http://imgur.com/a/kULXz | 11:21 |
| davmor2 | SuperMatt: yeah that is the problem, twitter/facebook/G+/slack/telegram...... all do a job but none replace email it still lives on because nothing beats it hands down | 11:22 |
| SuperMatt | email's biggest advantage is it's biggest disadvantage too, the fact that it's decentralised | 11:23 |
| davmor2 | SuperMatt: and any client can plug into it because it has a standard that rarely changes | 11:26 |
| SuperMatt | indeed | 11:29 |
| SuperMatt | but the issue is, as show by email, by decentralising you have to come up with a robust verification method | 11:29 |
| awilkins | Slack are like facebook - turning PHP and MySQL into bank | 11:45 |
| awilkins | http://www.infoworld.com/article/3191210/cloud-computing/why-slack-cant-slow-down.html | 11:45 |
| awilkins | Oh : http://www.infoworld.com/article/3191210/cloud-computing/why-slack-cant-slow-down.html | 11:46 |
| awilkins | oops | 11:46 |
| awilkins | http://www.nhsbuntu.org/ | 11:46 |
| SuperMatt | that looks like a gateway to hell | 11:50 |
| SuperMatt | While I agree that the NHS using Ubuntu would be great, if it's a fork rather than a spin, they're going to end up with a security nightmare | 11:50 |
| diddledan | this is fun: https://scotthelme.co.uk/nomx-the-worlds-most-secure-communications-protocol/ <-- hint it isn't | 12:06 |

| daftykins | XD ace video from Dave at EEVblog | 18:20 |
| diddledan | I've shared this before, but https://github.com/veorq/oee | 19:08 |
| diddledan | daftykins: I already posted that at 15:04:25 | 19:08 |
| diddledan | tis like two lines (of real talking) before you | 19:08 |
| daftykins | oh wow so you did | 19:09 |
| daftykins | he's a jammy devil eh? | 19:09 |
| diddledan | what's happening in the bananas right now? | 19:27 |
| diddledan | apparently something big has gone wrong | 19:27 |
| daftykins | which diddled fruit is that? | 19:28 |
| diddledan | it's an island | 19:28 |
| daftykins | bahamas? | 19:28 |
| diddledan | yeah, bananas | 19:28 |
| diddledan | Theresa is moaning that European countries are being unified. almost like they're in a union! http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/theresa-may-labour-supporters-general-election-lend-me-their-vote-brexit-success-eu-tory-leader-a7706096.html | 19:31 |
| daftykins | "they're ganging up against us!" | 19:33 |
| daftykins | where us is you, i mean | 19:33 |
| zmoylan-pi | it's not a problem, they can just dump the cost of brexit on the poor people... and spare the bankers... | 19:33 |
| diddledan | zmoylan-pi: worked for trump and his wall | 19:36 |
| zmoylan-pi | he should make a bid on the chinese wall and see if they'll deliver... | 19:37 |
| diddledan | seriously? have you not seen what the chinese wall keeps out?! https://youtu.be/6SKI9rgqFck | 19:39 |
| zmoylan-pi | they really don't know how to not whitewash a movie do they? or is it ok to whitewash if there's a big wall in it? | 19:43 |
| daftykins | ooh Ubuntu 12.04 went EOL today :) | 19:45 |
| daftykins | there's a milestone | 19:46 |
| diddledan | yup | 19:46 |
| diddledan | old place of work _finally_ shut down their 12.04 box yesterday | 19:46 |
| diddledan | they went right up to the wire, right?! | 19:46 |
| daftykins | typical! | 19:49 |
| zmoylan-pi | so they replaced it with a system running xp then? :-P | 19:50 |
| diddledan | they've been rolling out 14.04 - I think they finally realised they should move that rollout onto 16.04 rather than finish it | 19:50 |
| daftykins | hahaha | 19:51 |
| diddledan | I really don't understand why people are so afraid to change stuff | 19:51 |
| zmoylan-pi | years and years of updates breaking things? | 19:52 |
| daftykins | must be due to how much the wheel gets reinvented i suppose | 19:52 |
| daftykins | i think i went from a 10.04 VM straight up to 14.04 last - quite some changes in how apache's configs are laid out :> but not so big in the grand scheme | 19:52 |
| foobarry | i have 2 centos 5 boxes that aren't built with puppet. its a pain to migrate the service and have lots of other things to do | 20:43 |
| foobarry | so much to do, so little time | 20:43 |
| foobarry | when its quite complex apps that are painful to migrate and usually provide reliable service, its hard to do it | 20:44 |
| foobarry | you just say, just another week | 20:44 |
| daftykins | diddledan: oh i have an amusing tale for you, prepped an old PC from a friends workplace for his wifes art gallery... popped the can and vacuumed it out etc, fired it up - oh look 14 bad sectors on the disk | 21:45 |
| daftykins | grabbed a spare 320GB laptop drive of mine to toss in, oh look bad sectors :D | 21:45 |
| diddledan | dodgy chip? | 21:45 |
| daftykins | third time was the charm though | 21:45 |
| daftykins | nah really was the disks | 21:45 |
| diddledan | aah | 21:45 |
| diddledan | I was getting errors spewed to the console on my xenserver box. swapped-out the cable and moved the drive to a different sata connector on the mobo and it appears stable now | 21:46 |
| daftykins | \o/ | 21:46 |
| diddledan | has gone several days where prior it was breaking after a few hours | 21:47 |
| * diddledan tests it now | 21:47 | |
| diddledan | yup, still working fine | 21:47 |
| daftykins | they're a pain those, i usually snip and bin the SATA cables regardless | 21:48 |
| diddledan | they're nice and cheap these days | 21:49 |
| daftykins | yipyip, i just get by on spares from mobos and that too | 21:49 |
| daftykins | that Dell and its' proprietary power one scuppered me though - http://i.imgur.com/keppJK0.jpg | 21:49 |
| diddledan | aye, new mobos coming with 2 or more cables is nice | 21:49 |
| daftykins | Asus were quite rude with mine and only included 2 :< | 21:50 |
| daftykins | Z170 board too | 21:50 |
| diddledan | that looks like a sata data plug | 21:51 |
| diddledan | I hope it's not the same shape | 21:51 |
| diddledan | "I'll just plug this into that drive's sata port" *bang* | 21:51 |
| daftykins | ah it's the mobo end on the right that's the devil, the middle is just a teeny tiny for a slimline optical | 21:52 |
| daftykins | Dell seem to have moved to putting laptop style drives in to make their cases smaller | 21:52 |
| diddledan | aah | 21:52 |
| diddledan | so that doesn't come from the PSU? | 21:52 |
| daftykins | nope! mobo | 21:53 |
| diddledan | weird | 21:53 |
| daftykins | the PSU is some teeny tiny jobby that hs funky connectors too | 21:53 |
| diddledan | I thought the point of ATX was to get rid of proprietary crud | 21:53 |
| daftykins | best part? 5 phone transfers with Dell and some guy looked it up for me, the code on it there was no use to them | 21:54 |
| daftykins | the guy then said "yep that'll be £38 please" | 21:54 |
| diddledan | wat?! | 21:54 |
| daftykins | (had to buy a second to drive an SSD as well as the disk inside) | 21:54 |
| daftykins | yip! | 21:54 |
| daftykins | ended up finding one on ebay from Latvia for £12.50 | 21:54 |
| diddledan | someone's been watching i-robot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5V_VzRrSBI | 21:56 |
| diddledan | it's elon musk's "the boring company" | 21:56 |
