| SuperMatt | oops | 06:55 |
| SuperMatt | morning though | 06:55 |
| MooDoo | howdy all | 06:55 |
| SuperMatt | Didn't get facebook job :( | 06:55 |
| SuperMatt | need a little more systems knowledge | 06:56 |
| MooDoo | SuperMatt: awww that sucks, and what systems? | 06:56 |
| SuperMatt | As is, what system calls are called when starting a process | 06:56 |
| MooDoo | yeah that sounds a bit in depth | 06:56 |
| SuperMatt | yeah | 06:58 |
| SuperMatt | though my coding was fine, apparently | 06:58 |
| MooDoo | are you going to try again? | 07:02 |
| SuperMatt | One day | 07:03 |
| MooDoo | cool | 07:03 |
| brobostigon | morning boys and girls. | 07:14 |
| MooDoo | morning brobostigon :D] | 07:19 |
| brobostigon | morning MooDoo :) | 07:22 |
| foobarry | what system calls *are* called when starting a process? | 07:46 |
| * SuperMatt shrugs | 07:46 | |
| SuperMatt | essentially, they want kernel level knowledge | 07:46 |
| MooDoo | SuperMatt: time for some reading then :D | 07:47 |
| SuperMatt | indeed | 07:47 |
| MooDoo | I'm thinking about LPIC-1 | 07:48 |

| foobarry | really annoying issue with slack | 12:48 |
| foobarry | somehow it grabs the clipbaord and hogs it | 12:48 |
| zmoylan-pi | using slack? :-P | 12:49 |
| foobarry | 9/10 i'm pasting an old clip | 12:49 |
| diddledan | really interesting: https://medium.com/starts-with-a-bang/the-greatest-cosmic-puzzle-astronomers-find-stars-that-appear-older-than-the-universe-71bee462c6be | 12:55 |
| zmoylan-pi | is there a less bloggy link? | 12:56 |
| diddledan | I can shortlink it if you want a link that looks different | 13:07 |
| Oli | I want to make a big wall-mounted "keyboard" for the house. Ideally a white dry-erase surface with a grid of buttons. Then I can draw out keys and map those to actions via an Ubuntu server. But does anybody know if this mythical wipe-clean whiteboard-keboard thing exists? Or do I have to make this from scratch? | 13:33 |
| Oli | Everything I search for pushes me towards a smart board (without a projector) or a touchscreen overlay... But they're both pretty expensive options for an application where I need —at most— 30 buttons. | 13:39 |
| diplo | I have no idea whether you can use something, but sounds like the laser projection virtual keyboard ? | 13:58 |
| diplo | I'veen one on amazon, don't know if it works with linux though | 13:58 |
| Oli | Yeah sort of. That just seems very complicated. All I need is a matrix of large membrane buttons with something I can draw on on the surface. | 14:05 |
| Oli | Just doesn't appear to be something that exists. | 14:06 |
| Oli | I'm almost considering pulling a DDR mat apart. | 14:06 |
| Oli | That's the sort of scale I'm almost talking about | 14:06 |
| diplo | I was about to say, sounds like something you'd have to make yourself if not | 14:09 |
| diplo | Rip a keyboard apart and map the keys you want to use and stick a cover over them | 14:09 |
| diplo | Get one of the clear membrane covers for keyboards | 14:09 |
| Oli | Yeah. It's just a shame there aren't enough people as weird as me to justify mass production of these. | 14:10 |
| diplo | I guess that's why most people use smart boards in schools etc | 14:13 |
| zmoylan-pi | i think dnd now has software that'll project, might be an alternate starting point for similar features... | 16:56 |

| daftykins | HSBC want a 90 minute appointment to create an account, hrmm | 19:53 |
| zmoylan-pi | ring your own donuts and coffee? :-) | 20:09 |
| zmoylan-pi | *bring | 20:09 |
| daftykins | cor, i'm hoping for a free coffee at least! | 20:09 |
| zmoylan-pi | you'll get a free calendar like everyone else... with the heros of hsbc on it... in their skivies... | 20:10 |
| daftykins | ooh that might be a bit too fancy for HSBC Offshore, down here on the rock | 20:11 |
| daftykins | maybe a free branded biro which lasts a sentence or three of writing | 20:12 |
| zmoylan-pi | if you had opened the deluxe business account you'd get a red stapler... :-) | 20:12 |
| daftykins | woohoo \o/ | 20:15 |
| zmoylan-pi | well that might help a few peopkle here in ireland... http://www.rte.ie/news/2017/0921/906622-government-outlaw-zero-hours-contracts/ | 20:15 |

| popey | need | 20:48 |
| MooDoo | popey: I'm closer :p | 20:50 |
| popey | haha :) | 20:53 |
| daftykins | O_O | 21:01 |
| diddledan | wow | 21:05 |
| diddledan | I love finding old sites: "Rewrote the page in valid html 4.01 strict." | 21:19 |
| diddledan | nobody cares about being "valid html" anymore | 21:20 |
| diddledan | either it works or it doesn't | 21:20 |
| diddledan | it's even got those w3c checkmark icons to say "I really did validate it, honest, guv" | 21:21 |
| diddledan | e.g. http://www.w3.org/Icons/valid-html401 | 21:21 |
| daftykins | as long as the mobile version makes you cringe and head to a desktop browser to get anything done, everything is normal! | 21:21 |
| zmoylan-pi | does it have an undercontruction gif? :-) | 21:30 |
| diddledan | google chrome is refusing to open stackexchange sites | 21:35 |
| zmoylan-pi | is that a bug or a feature? | 21:35 |
| diddledan | I'm not sure | 21:36 |
| MooDoo | diddledan: url? | 21:37 |
| diddledan | https://stackoverflow.com | 21:37 |
| MooDoo | works fine for me! | 21:38 |
| MooDoo | well the site loads | 21:38 |
| diddledan | https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/8cHQYGds/ | 21:38 |
| daftykins | yip fine here | 21:38 |
| MooDoo | diddledan: that one didn't | 21:38 |
| diddledan | other https sites are loading fine so it isn't a misconfiguration of proxy | 21:38 |
| daftykins | diddledan: ah they saw you coming | 21:38 |
| diddledan | o_O | 21:50 |
| diddledan | https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/LUJK5pML/ | 21:58 |
| diddledan | weird | 21:58 |
| daftykins | are you running some convoluted setup from your many racks to help confuse your DNS setup and so on? | 22:00 |
| diddledan | I don't _think_ so | 22:00 |
| diddledan | if I curl direct to an IP from DNS resolution I get SSL correctly starting | 22:01 |
| diddledan | e.g. stackoverflow.com.197INA151.101.1.69 | 22:02 |
| diddledan | I curl that IP and get a result that no hostnames in the certificate match the IP (because it expects me to be asking for a hostname, not IP) | 22:02 |
| diddledan | curl: (51) SSL: no alternative certificate subject name matches target host name '151.101.1.69' | 22:03 |
| diddledan | that's fine AFAICT | 22:03 |
| diddledan | openssl s_client can connect | 22:05 |
| diddledan | for some reason curl and chrome are failing | 22:05 |
| diddledan | firefox also can't get there | 22:06 |
| diddledan | AHA | 22:06 |
| diddledan | forgot about that | 22:06 |
| diddledan | I fix | 22:06 |
| diddledan | turns out I had two default routes at the same priority - one for my real gateway and one from a stupid usb gsm dongle | 22:07 |
| daftykins | o0 | 22:10 |
| daftykins | surely it's a bit faster than GSM :D | 22:12 |
