SuperMatt | morning all | 07:21 |
SuperMatt | Gotta admit to being very impressed with the latest version of solus | 07:21 |
MooDoo | solus? | 07:23 |
diplo | Morning all | 07:35 |
diplo | MooDoo: https://solus-project.com/ | 07:36 |
diplo | I run it on my Gem at work too SuperMatt | 07:36 |
diplo | Sorry NUC* | 07:36 |
MooDoo | is this another elemental? | 07:48 |
MooDoo | elementary* | 07:48 |
diplo | Nope, written from the ground up by a bloke called Ikey | 07:52 |
diplo | Fast, up to date, changes alot underneath though | 07:52 |
MooDoo | diplo: not based on another distro? see it has support for ubuntu snaps | 07:54 |
diplo | Nope, well the base was clear linux project I think, ikey used to work for Intel till recently, but now gone full time on Solus | 07:54 |
MooDoo | cool, looking at the site now | 07:55 |
diplo | He wrote support in for snaps in a couple of days, the guy is a machine | 07:55 |
* diplo will try installing diddledan's Corebird I guess, but I think it's already newest version in solus repos | 07:57 | |
MooDoo | diplo: downloading the iso now :) | 07:58 |
diplo | It's nice, needed to wait till now as needed certain packages for work | 08:00 |
davmor2 | Morning all | 08:05 |
foobarry | http://imgur.com/a/lkUrO woops | 08:13 |
foobarry | need to close a few tabs | 08:13 |
diplo | jeesh foobarry | 08:14 |

knightwise | morning ! | 08:15 |
MooDoo | diplo: it's certainly very pretty | 08:19 |
diplo | It is and quick I find | 08:27 |
diplo | Thunderbird can't attach from Samba shares created via nautilus it appears | 08:27 |
diplo | What is the correct way of mounting samba shares via cli now ? cifs is all the tutorials are mentioning, just want to confirm it is still that as I thought it was gvfs or something now ? | 08:28 |
MooDoo | diplo: I'm just running the live version from USB, but that's quick, took me a few mins to realise it's eopkg :) | 08:28 |
MooDoo | diplo: i've always done it mount -t cifs etc etc | 08:28 |
diplo | Yup, syntax has taken me a bit longer, alias apt to eopkg :P | 08:28 |
diplo | ah ok, will install cifs-utils then ta | 08:28 |
MooDoo | diplo: might replace my ubuntu partition with it, but we'll see live version is ok for today | 08:29 |
MooDoo | diplo: even from usb, it really is fast isn't it | 08:32 |
diplo | Yup | 08:34 |
diplo | I've been using Ubuntu Budgie for quite a while, but wanted to move over | 08:34 |
knightwise | morning guys | 08:45 |
knightwise | how are you doing | 08:45 |
diplo | morning knightwise, exhausted after taking my kids away for a 5 day break :D | 08:46 |
diplo | So bug 378425 on Thunderbird, can't attach files from smb share - opened 11 years ago! | 08:47 |
MooDoo | diplo: something for the weekend for you to look at? ;) | 08:47 |
diplo | god no! I'll use the workaround for now thanks | 08:48 |
diplo | I'll be sleeping all weekend | 08:48 |
knightwise | diplo: had a bit of a break too :) couple of days in the north of france :) | 08:49 |
diplo | oooh lovely | 08:51 |
MooDoo | I'm off at the end of the month, bank hol weekend, taking the kids to legoland for a couple of days. :) | 08:53 |
diplo | Oh nice, my youngest really wants to go back | 08:56 |
MooDoo | diplo: was going to drive down then go straight into the park, but just seen a travel lodge 20 mins from the park, might go down the day before now :D | 09:00 |
knightwise | oooh legoland | 09:03 |
knightwise | take me take me | 09:03 |
MooDoo | knightwise: if you can fit in the kids rucksack and they won't notice, then deal :) lol | 09:04 |
diplo | I was going to camp down there MooDoo, but decided against it, it's only a 1 1/2 for me, but was going to do 2 days | 09:14 |
MooDoo | we're there wed/thursday but i think i might be tired driving down there early wed morning | 09:17 |
diplo | You're in Nottingham still aren't you ? | 09:18 |
MooDoo | diplo: yes just looking at google maps now | 09:18 |
MooDoo | diplo: yeah 3 hours is | 09:19 |
MooDoo | ish | 09:19 |
diplo | That's fairly quick, takes me 4+ from Bath to Notts | 09:26 |
diplo | Do you hardcode creds for a samba share in fstab ever? load from a text file etc ? | 09:27 |
foobarry | is ff55 faster or the same old disappointment? | 09:32 |
foobarry | down to 24 tabs! | 09:33 |
diplo | I've seen a significant increase! | 09:33 |

foobarry | lies! | 09:34 |
foobarry | they never deliver | 09:34 |
foobarry | upgrading now brb | 09:34 |
diplo | heh, they have this time | 09:35 |
foobarry | witchcraft! | 09:35 |
foobarry | sorcery! | 09:35 |
foobarry | will test with redmine, which it seems to be 5x slower than chrome | 09:35 |
diplo | I've heard 57 is faster still | 09:37 |
MooDoo | doesn't 57 use the new rendering engine? | 09:38 |
foobarry | awesome bar is broken :( | 09:38 |
foobarry | ah working now | 09:38 |
MooDoo | it's quite fast using the i3 window manager too :) | 09:40 |
diplo | Keep thinking about trying i3, watched a vid of it | 09:41 |
diplo | Been years since I distro hopped, now on my third in a few months :D | 09:41 |
MooDoo | diplo: I love it :) then again i'm a terminal junkie. | 09:41 |
MooDoo | diplo: I'm using ubuntu, just installed i3 :) | 09:41 |
diplo | May try it in a vm full screen one day | 09:44 |
davmor2 | works fine here on neon | 09:45 |
davmor2 | although I am only using it in home activity work is on chrome | 09:46 |
MooDoo | I prefer chrome myself | 09:46 |
diplo | I found it got heavier and heavier on my system, also had loads of caching issues | 09:54 |
diplo | So moved to FF for a bit, haven't moved back yet :D | 09:54 |
SuperMatt | FF 57 is amazing. I've moved my personal profile over to it and I hope to track it back to stable. | 09:59 |
foobarry | where's 57? beta? | 10:04 |
MooDoo | http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2017/08/download-firefox-57-nightly | 10:04 |
foobarry | the quit button is a bit abrupt | 10:04 |
foobarry | no questions just POOF | 10:05 |
foobarry | redmine still more sluggish than chrome | 10:10 |
knightwise | ok, Rasberry PI setup :) running Calibre server and ssh endpoint. Thank god for the 128 gig microsd | 10:52 |
foobarry | http://www.gearbest.com/tablet-pcs/pp_613003.html?lkid=10853351 | 12:50 |
foobarry | :o | 12:50 |
foobarry | ubuntu/linux support forthcoming | 12:51 |
daftykins | the text on that page is so bad XD | 12:55 |
diddledan | dear God it's teeny weeny! | 12:56 |
foobarry | i fell for that trick with eee pc701 | 12:59 |
foobarry | i'm not buying more shiny | 12:59 |
daftykins | glad to hear :P looks like the kind of cheap tat that'll get abandoned quick | 12:59 |
foobarry | i have footage of a UFO taking off | 13:01 |
foobarry | http://imgur.com/a/18Lzy | 13:01 |
daftykins | :D | 13:01 |
diddledan | hahaha. I love that | 13:05 |
SuperMatt | still can't install Solus to existing logical volumes | 13:19 |
daftykins | where can you? non-LVM? | 13:20 |
SuperMatt | yup | 13:21 |
SuperMatt | I can install it, but it would mean a lot of faffing to back up my stuff | 13:22 |
daftykins | does it have to be bare metal? | 13:23 |
diplo | Asked in #solus - ikey is quite active there as well as others in the channel | 13:24 |
popey | i saw some video review of the gpd thing a week or so ago where he tried kde | 13:25 |
popey | it mostly worked, but screen orientation was off | 13:27 |
zmoylan-pi | there's a revered gif version for the aliens landing... | 13:28 |
popey | I can't fathom why they have the Del key next to P on the GPD and backspace next to 0, odd layout | 13:28 |
popey | seems early versions were the other way around and they changed based on feedback | 13:29 |
zmoylan-pi | i do wonder if people who change the layout of keys are touch typists... | 13:30 |
popey | with tiny hands | 13:30 |
Azelphur | Hi folks, I'm looking at /proc/<pid>/fd and it has a lot of files which link to sockets, is there any way to find out more info about what those sockets are? | 13:30 |
Azelphur | eg "socket:[36745917]" isn't a particularly useful piece of info | 13:30 |
popey | Azelphur: what type of application? | 13:32 |
Azelphur | popey: stuff I wrote, aiohttp handling websocket connections. | 13:32 |
popey | won't they match open connections, like what you see in netstat? | 13:34 |
Azelphur | popey: they don't, no | 13:35 |
daftykins | lsof any use in that scenario? | 13:36 |
Azelphur | daftykins: actually much, dunno why I didn't think of that | 13:37 |
Azelphur | and now I know that my app is leaking connections to redis, woo. I'm a good programmer \o/ | 13:39 |
daftykins | yay i knew a thing! | 13:41 |
* zmoylan-pi gives daftykins a peanut... | 13:54 | |
* daftykins looks at it... | 13:55 | |
daftykins | err, where's that been? | 13:55 |
daftykins | that was amusing, i just called up the travelinn i'm staying at outside of Stansted airport tomorrow evening, guy didn't really know how to get to them from the airport without blowing £20 on a taxi, oof | 13:55 |
zmoylan-pi | people still ask for directions?! | 13:58 |
daftykins | i'm an island bumpkin in a strange and foreign land :( | 14:00 |
daftykins | tbh my research did already point out a better answer than he offered, just no price | 14:00 |
daftykins | (local buses) | 14:00 |
zmoylan-pi | take out your string and tie off at starting point and trail it out behind you as you go... :-P | 14:00 |
daftykins | excellent, but what's this i hear of horseless carriages? | 14:06 |
zmoylan-pi | putting hardworking horses out of work... and people with shovels.. | 14:07 |
daftykins | on Sark they have bins mounted on the wall sides you're meant to clean up after your own horse, with | 14:08 |
zmoylan-pi | some places now require horses to wear diapers | 14:08 |
zmoylan-pi | just need tescos to step up and provide changing tables... :-P | 14:11 |
daftykins | :D | 14:12 |
foobarry | popey: http://daniel-lnx.blogspot.co.uk/ fixed the rotation issue | 14:32 |
popey | nice | 14:32 |
popey | i think flexiondotorg has one of those GPD things on the way | 14:32 |
popey | maybe | 14:32 |
foobarry | tbh even a full size laptop is an annoyance for me | 14:33 |
foobarry | keyboard and desktop PC ftw | 14:33 |
foobarry | and moar monitors | 14:33 |
daftykins | +1 to that | 14:34 |
foobarry | and a big desk with all my gonks on | 14:34 |
foobarry | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FtcW9u0GDE | 14:35 |
daftykins | hmm gonk was new on me! | 15:22 |
diddledan | what's that, skip, you wanna play with me didgerydoo?! | 15:41 |
Azelphur | lol, got one of those SMS's pretending to be my bank asking me to fill in my account details, looked at the domain and it was owned by a self-employed PC repair guy, so I phoned him and let him know | 15:57 |
* Azelphur is useful | 15:57 | |
Seeker` | "You do know you're scamming people, right?" | 15:59 |
Azelphur | haha, was obviously a malicious user got control of his server | 16:00 |
Azelphur | and he just emailed me and let me know that he took it down, that probably saved a few peoples bank accounts | 16:02 |
Azelphur | good deed for the day \o/ | 16:02 |
Seeker` | "oh, good catch, I'll *definitely* stop scamming people" | 16:02 |
Azelphur | haha | 16:02 |
popey | You should listen to the ReplyAll podcast, the guy gets friendly with one of those Windows scammers, and even goes to visit them in India. It's quite fun | 16:08 |
popey | https://gimletmedia.com/reply-all/ - episode 102 and 103 | 16:08 |
Azelphur | that sounds fun | 16:09 |
Azelphur | Idea of the day: Friend is making me a SATA cable that takes the 5v line and puts it out into a female USB port, gonna buy a crappy GPS tracker off aliexpress for £5.60, and put it inside an unused drive bay in my laptop | 17:27 |
ali1234 | Azelphur: three has a payg sim that gives you 200MB free per month if you top up £2 every six months | 20:03 |
ali1234 | but you will need to get a tracker with 3G or they will kick you off because they don't support 2G | 20:03 |
Azelphur | ali1234: nice | 20:03 |
ali1234 | also i odnt recommend using the drive bay that's the first place anyone wold look... | 20:04 |
ali1234 | although if you can fit it all inside a case from a broken ssd that could work | 20:10 |
zmoylan-pi | aren't there software options for loading into firmware that will phone home if laptop is connected to internet? | 20:27 |
ali1234 | yeah, computrace | 20:28 |
zmoylan-pi | i wonder how good the bt trackers are you see advertised around | 21:00 |
diddledan | this lookee funky: https://www.frontrow.com/ | 21:27 |
zmoylan-pi | so another 'life trcaker'... | 21:30 |
diddledan | seems so | 21:30 |
zmoylan-pi | i'd love one that was small enough for a cat to wear with a wireless charging mat that i could slip into cats box that autouploaded pics to cloud | 21:31 |
zmoylan-pi | you could check what your murderfloof was up to when you weren't around | 21:43 |
diddledan | is google down? | 22:09 |
zmoylan-pi | panic \o/ ::goes to check:: | 22:09 |
diddledan | I'm searching "you're awesome" and it's not returning | 22:10 |
zmoylan-pi | came up for me | 22:10 |
zmoylan-pi | haven't fired up google page in months... worked ok | 22:10 |
zmoylan-pi | vivaldi on linux mint | 22:11 |
diddledan | I wonder what voodoo is ocurring then | 22:11 |
zmoylan-pi | have you sacrificed chickens to the gods of wifi? | 22:11 |
diddledan | neither chrome nor firefox are loading it | 22:11 |
zmoylan-pi | and on your mobile device? | 22:11 |
diddledan | ok chrome finally loaded something | 22:12 |
zmoylan-pi | but you didn't type google into google? #justchecking | 22:14 |
diddledan | damn. that'ld do it | 22:14 |
diddledan | oops | 22:14 |
diddledan | google is working fine now | 23:07 |
diddledan | I wonder what I did to break it | 23:07 |
daftykins | must be the stuff you type into it, making it blush | 23:08 |
daftykins | my wealthy client has discovered Three's partner in France has issues today, no network association this lunch! | 23:08 |
daftykins | er since lunch, i meant | 23:08 |
zmoylan-pi | did you cast wiggle network cable? :-P | 23:19 |
daftykins | maybe ;D | 23:19 |
daftykins | still got him with an O2 service in his laptop for mobile data, so he's not entirely in holiday mode due to the service outage... | 23:19 |
zmoylan-pi | when i first got an iphone many moons ago the service was taken out for most of a day by rain... rain in ireland, who knew... :-) | 23:20 |
daftykins | cor! | 23:21 |
daftykins | did that become a regular thing when it rained? | 23:21 |
zmoylan-pi | http://www.rte.ie/news/2011/1001/306829-dublin_weather/ | 23:22 |
daftykins | my my | 23:23 |
zmoylan-pi | nah, they had moved a bunch of servers into a basement i found out later, without checking for flood protection | 23:23 |
daftykins | :S | 23:23 |
daftykins | i should've asked you to translate for me when i had an Irish lass from EE during a call the other day | 23:26 |
daftykins | i swear i get the first 60% of sentences then they seem to allow all the words to hold hands by the end of the sentence | 23:26 |
daftykins | "Yes calling Guernsey from England will be 50p perminuteahoohaharemeraldisle" | 23:27 |
zmoylan-pi | one of my favourite films is i went down which provides a great example of inserting swear words into the middle of words when the sentence isn't long enough :-) | 23:28 |
zmoylan-pi | wow, 20 years old now... :-) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0126344/ | 23:31 |
daftykins | my my | 23:32 |
daftykins | what kind of a name is Git! | 23:32 |
zmoylan-pi | give it a watch, you will laugh out loud | 23:32 |
zmoylan-pi | in ireland a nickname can be more important than any other name | 23:33 |
daftykins | that's fair :> | 23:33 |
daftykins | now relaxing to some Cranberries | 23:33 |
daftykins | never did get to see them live, they cancelled | 23:34 |
zmoylan-pi | but it's a safe bet, anything with brendan gleason in it is pretty good | 23:34 |
zmoylan-pi | the guard, the general, in bruge | 23:35 |
daftykins | looks familiar, let's see | 23:37 |
zmoylan-pi | you will have seen in bruge | 23:37 |
