[07:30] hello all [08:15] Morning Voters. [08:39] Morning subject. Have sworn your daily oath of fealty to Darth Mayder like a good prole? [08:40] morning boys and girls. [09:20] ++report to room 102 for your daily scourging+++ [09:26] 102 - "processing". [10:28] everyone go vote! [10:29] rob the conservatives of victory, make them wish they hadnt called the election and the referendum. [10:37] Tories predicted to get ~340 seats. Not the stonking majority they hoped for, but enough. [10:37] Theresa May just loves her some "Statutory Instruments" [10:39] The only hope is that the youngsters go and vote, but as they are a feckless bunch of lay-abouts with zero motivation; they won't. [10:39] * TwistedLucidity hopes he understands this "reverse psychology" thing [10:39] I vote in ~30 mins. [10:43] :) [10:43] Someone tell JamesTait that Sat 10th is World Gin Day. http://worldginday.com/ [10:46] DAMN! Just thought of a T-shirt I should have gotten printed. "sudo apt purge tory" [10:47] lawls [10:47] although I'd make it more distro agnostic [10:47] rm -rf /tories [10:49] Can you pipe a device to null? "sudo /dev/may > /dev/null"? [10:50] no, but you could dd if=/dev/null of=/tories [10:50] Heh, nice [10:50] Aren't if/of the wrong way round? I was thinking dumping everything these say into the blackhole of null [10:51] *they [10:52] oh I see, I was overwriting the tories [10:53] Tried to open a bank account at Barclays, they told me my application was rejected and I should "Refer to the terms and conditions" [10:53] :< [10:54] SuperMatt: dd if=/dev/random of=/tories [10:54] Azelphur: Try Bank of Scotland. They had reasonable rates and a nice website. [10:55] TwistedLucidity: need an account with USD balance is the problem [10:55] so probably HSBC next [10:55] Ah [12:16] For extra hilarity, nobody at the bank actually knows why my account has been rejected [12:16] guess that's a good reason to not bank with Barclays [12:18] they could tell you but then they'd be added to the forbidden to deal with list... [12:18] lol [12:57] TP Link OK for a cheap switch in a small office ? Not really used much of their kit [12:57] Looking at the TL-SG108 [13:00] i use tp-link stuff, works well [13:00] better than the netgear stuff I previously used [13:01] in fact, i have that very switch on my desk :) [13:02] Good enough for you, will do for them then :) [13:02] ta fanx - I dislike netgear kit so was looking for something else [13:02] http://imgur.com/28GHydZ [13:02] excuse the dust [13:03] All full up too thanks [13:03] :) [13:03] yeah, went to plug a pc into it the other day and went "oh, bugger" [13:03] didn't realise I had need for 8 ports until then [13:03] Time for a 24 port then [13:04] heheh [13:04] i only need a 9 port! :D [13:04] :D [13:04] Ordered thank you, Prime is great for this sort of thing [13:05] ya [13:09] i didn't mean to make that image public, now I'm getting comments on it [13:14] Can't see comments here [13:16] http://imgur.com/gallery/cMIdz [13:18] Here we see a picture of OPs mom in her natural habitat. [13:18] I've never read imgur comments, are they all as bad as this? :) [13:19] Do these people have no work... I can't be arsed to respond on FB etc let alone a img site [13:19] not on the front page [13:19] in user submitted they're pretty terrible [13:20] it's for trolls not ready for youtube... :-P [13:24] I try and stop my kids looking at comments [14:01] exobuzz: happy belated birthday :) [14:01] (you weren't here on your birthday) [14:01] popey, oh - thanks! :-) [14:02] popey, how's things ? [14:39] Hey guys. Any monit users here? [14:41] selinuxium: I used to use it, switched to nagios [14:42] Yeah, I wanted something a little smaller. It is only supposed to be to monitor a couple of services and restart them.. [14:42] I could code it. But I fancied getting my head around monit. [14:42] yea, monit is fine for single systems, as soon as you get more than one system though, monit is a potato. [14:43] :) [14:43] what's up anyway? I know my way around monit a bit. [14:43] But MMonit allows for more than one system, only have a few boxen here so a license would be trivial [14:43] Yeah, Sorry... :) [14:44] €65...trivial :P [14:44] Trivial when it would be a purchase order and not mine... :) [14:44] suppose [14:45] So... [14:45] monitrc - https://paste.ubuntu.com/24808314/ [14:47] The monoserve just comes up with Status - Execution Faile [14:47] Failed [14:47] is monit running as root? [14:48] I assume so... [14:48] ps aux | grep monit [14:48] Erm.. yes. [14:48] hmm, interesting [14:48] have you tried running /etc/init.d/monoserve start manually, to see what happens? [14:49] Yeah, the /etc/init.d/monoserve start/stop/restart works, and has for several years... [14:50] that's weird [14:50] perhaps journalctl can shed some light? [14:50] that is, assuming you're running monit under systemd [14:50] Sadly not. [14:51] maybe run monit in the foreground? [14:52] https://paste.ubuntu.com/24808337/ [14:52] Doesn't give me much... [14:52] that's me out of ideas :( [14:53] Dammit, thanks for your time though :) [14:53] np, there is a monit IRC channel if you haven't tried there already, it's not that active though [14:54] ah, you're already in there [14:54] Nobody here but us chickens... :) [14:54] hehe [14:55] Right. My home time beckons. Thanks again :) [17:46] Heh, its good of the United States to arrange a congressional hearing with the former FBI director on election day in the UK, otherwise the uk's news media would have nothing to do today apart from report on https://twitter.com/hashtag/dogsatpollingstations?lang=en [18:30] actually the day after is more busy [18:30] nothing atually happens on election day [18:52] yep, [18:53] Well, saying yep, news still goes on, just reporters don't bother [20:29] hrmm my wealthy client has just bought a pad in Fulham! it seems the area is getting www.hyperoptic.com installed soon :O [20:29] anyone had any experience with them? :) [20:42] hrmm looks like they're using carrier grade NAT [21:13] Evening all [21:13] Tonight is going to be interesting [21:15] the old curse been may you live in interesting times [21:17] rm -rf /dev/tories :D [21:18] I'm surprised I'm able to stream the results from the BBC [21:21] streamlink -p cvlc https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/live/bbcone besr [21:21] streamlink -p cvlc https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/live/bbcone best === lan3y is now known as Laney
