floridagram-bot7<ahoneybun> damn the ubuntu installer is changing a lot01:06
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> O?01:07
floridagram-bot7<ahoneybun> Ubuntu not Android01:07
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> I just auto removed all of the spare kernels from my closet server.  I may need that.  :001:08
floridagram-bot7<ahoneybun> looks very GNOME now01:08
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> I'm rebooting now.01:08
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> You know I have several Ubuntu machines, right?  I have 4 physical and 12 virtual.  Then several virtual variants.01:09
floridagram-bot7<ahoneybun> nope01:09
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> Haha. What?  Really?01:10
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> I configure these things all the time. That's why I come to the Ubuntu hours.01:10
floridagram-bot7<ahoneybun> well I know the Surface and a server01:10
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> Then my desktop dual boots, and my work laptop, and then I have several VMs.  7-ubuntu server, 3 for testing and then a few here at home.01:11
floridagram-bot7<ahoneybun> damn I basically just have my laptop for everything01:12
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> I actually have 3-work laptops.  1 windows running VMs, one laptop with Ubuntu, and one with Windows.   Then my surface, 2-laptops, a desktop, my closet..  oh, and my home security camera system (server) and a crap ton of raspberry pis running raspian mini which is like ubuntu server.  Also all my windows machines that support Windows 10 run "Ubuntu" in WSL.01:15
floridagram-bot7<ahoneybun> Damn01:16
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> So.. 12 physical machines???  Ish?01:16
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> closet-server survived the autoremove of 18 kernels!01:17
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> I have to give a class to the new guy on Android Exploits.  I did a talk in 2012 at Big Android BBQ with Jordan Keyes on Android Exploits.  That was back when I would recommend you root your device for security purposes because you could patch the hole.  The paradigm changed somewhere between then (Android 4.2) and Android 5.0 (SELinux), so 3-releases.  I'm not sure if Kernel Address Space Layout01:26
floridagram-bot7Randomization(Android 4.4), or SELinux was more important.01:26
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> good morning~10:53
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> So is it normal to receive a personalized response to an application to Google?12:55
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> @RazPi, Morning12:56
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> @Ivoriesablaze, Sometimes12:56
floridagram-bot7<Abrerr> @Ivoriesablaze, They dig ya12:56
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> Asking about offer deadlines and anticipated graduation date12:56
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> Could be an AI response12:57
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> From a named Google account12:58
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> Sure.12:58
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> Maybe there is a guy who was told to pick a few facts and respond personally with a template.12:59
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> I like x and the y.  Are you available for a call on ddmmyyyy?12:59
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> But it's not a flat out rejection letter, though13:00
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> So I guess it's not bad13:00
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> What did it say?13:01
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> To confirm my anticipated graduation and if I have any offer deadlines.13:01
floridagram-bot7<ahoneybun> To see if you have anything holding you back from moving I think13:57
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> Sounds like it.  Embellish your other offers but mention the prestige of Google.14:11
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> You're young.  Get Google under your belt14:12
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> I'd love to talk about my days at Google.14:13
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> I've got a wife and family.  I can't just pack up and move to California.  But I would do it if I were you.14:14
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> This ones in Michigan... Lol14:46
floridagram-bot7<SivaMachina> Hopefully not Flint14:53
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> Oh Shit15:18
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> https://twitter.com/NBCNews/status/90327245632398950615:18
floridagram-bot7<Abrerr> As snap15:18
floridagram-bot7<Abrerr> Got the weather on mute here, didn't read hurricane. :(15:19
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> It is expected to get to a Cat 4 by early next week... A Florida Landfall is possible15:20
floridagram-bot7<Abrerr> Yikes.15:20
floridagram-bot7<Abrerr> I'll pretend I didn't read that15:20
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> A South Florida and Alabama and Mississippi and Louisiana impact is  very likely15:23
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> Woo!!! Paid time off!!!15:30
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> With probably no power...15:30
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> Dammit!15:30
floridagram-bot7<SivaMachina> You could start canoing if you loose power15:31
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> True15:39
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> Darnit.  I might have to put up those shutters!15:41
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> It has been almost 12 years since we got hit with anything too nasty (Wilma)15:52
floridagram-bot7<SivaMachina> I don't remember Wilma being to bad or South Florida15:54
floridagram-bot7<SivaMachina> For15:54
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> It was very bad, I was without power for close to 6 weeks15:54
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> sounds about right16:08
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> Since I haven't finished my degree program, they can't take me16:24
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> @Ivoriesablaze what position did you apply for?16:29
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> Fluffer16:29
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> IT residency program16:29
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> I was so excited, too16:29
floridagram-bot7<SivaMachina> Maybe keep an eye on it and see if they have one open when you finish16:57
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> https://hackernoon.com/the-fcc-gov-website-lets-you-upload-documents-and-host-them-there-bdcd5c1a5b8b17:06
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> Derp...17:06
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> I'm so upset right now17:33
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> ?17:33
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> About the job thing17:33
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> Like about to cry upset, though I should be happy, I guess, that my resume was good enough for Google to actually look at me17:34
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> Still17:34
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> What happened?17:35
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> Because I'm still in a degree program, they can't consider me17:36
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> Thats not abnormal17:37
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> It complicates things for employers17:37
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> I just want to get out of this job so much17:37
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> I know17:39
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> @RazPi - Awake?18:01
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> @KMyers What's up?18:01
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> @KMyers solved the problem of using a watch strap with this watch btw, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01K0XQB04/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=118:02
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> Nice18:03
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> One sec, Let me read the fine print on something real uick18:03
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> @KMyers local raspi3 distrubut or19:45
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> A while back seeing the guy at a maker event he said I could phone him and buy some pi's, might be good for anyone!19:46
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> Not sure if he only has kits or individual pi's though19:47
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> He does https://www.makerbright.com/raspberry-pi-kits?p=219:48
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> That tech support pic.  I was about to share it and the share button isn't working on Oreo apparently.20:22
maxolasersquadOur lead developer is moving on and I'm getting the position.21:20
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> Does anyone want to do undergrounds on Saturday? I need a day out before Monday21:27
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> Isnt Monday a Holiday?21:27
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> It is, but I need to get out on Saturday, last thing I want to do is mope21:28
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> Is still be up for hanging out on Monday as well21:28
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> There is no reason to mope. You even said you had low expections from the start.21:30
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> When they express interest and the only reason they can't take me is literally a piece of paper, it tends to get to you21:32
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> @Ivoriesablaze google google interviews, you'll find that they tend to do several month long rounds and reject often for seemingly no reason at all. There's a lot of bitterness about it.21:34
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> No. That is why they did not process with pre-screening. After pre-screening, they will then go with an interview followed by another interview. Thousands with similar pieces of paper are likely trying to get the same position and only one will make it - again, no reason to mope or feel bad21:34
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> It's a residency program, so they probably take a few, but I get what you're saying21:35
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> But I couldn't even get an interview because I'm still in a degree program21:36
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> Google is also very secretive in their hiring processes - there is really no way to know what the real qualifications are21:36
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> Even if you had the degree, there is likely less than 1% of applicants that will make it to an interview21:36
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> Even if you had one, that really means nothing. Trust me on that21:37
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> http://www.businessinsider.com/my-nightmare-interviews-with-google-2009-1121:37
floridagram-bot7<SivaMachina> http://wsvn.com/news/us-world/irma-becomes-category-2-hurricane-may-intensify/21:39
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> @SivaMachina, Yes, Going to be getting emergency supplies this weekend. I am mostly stocked up but a few extra things wont hurt (mainly wet dog food)21:41
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> Sounds like I might should get a battery backup or solar panels21:42
floridagram-bot7<SivaMachina> If you can both21:42
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> I ordered a 2nd USB solar panel this morning. I have plenty of USB battery packs21:43
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> which one?21:43
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XBGSS2R/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&psc=1&linkCode=ll1&tag=lz0d6-20&linkId=5cb1a934ad2c6ccc43db31e433c5621721:44
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> Should be here tomorrow21:44
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> !!!!!21:44
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> @_@21:44
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> I was looking at those when I was researching camping gear!!21:44
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> I have a smaller one (10W) that I use to top off batteries. This one should be better21:45
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> Got an AC solution?21:45
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> That might be a good idea, but if the hurricane hits, I'ma get outta here.21:46
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0196GQAKM/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=121:49
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> @RazPi  that's my ac solution.21:49
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> XD I meant.. air conditioner21:50
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> @AdamOutler21:50
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MR562AB/_encoding=UTF8/ref=as_li_ss_tl?coliid=I3BDCMT360NTJ4&colid=1DU9D04SVLS25&linkCode=ll1&tag=lz0d6-20&linkId=be40c0cd3a80cceaef0f1343711c4200 Looks better21:50
floridagram-bot7<AdamOutler> Heh.  Then my solution is to plug in to that .21:50
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> My internet rage is growing http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/forget-linux-use-windows/22:15
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> hnnnnngh22:17
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> until you try programming22:17
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> then nothing about windows makes sense22:17
floridagram-bot7<RazPi> or anything beyond clickclickinstall22:17
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> So is anybody up for Saturday?23:12
floridagram-bot7<KMyers> @Ivoriesablaze, It depends. @ahoneybun is having the Day 5 viewing on Saturday. it depends on when it is done23:13
floridagram-bot7<Ivoriesablaze> Is this something all of you are going to?23:30
