[10:04] <SuperMatt> man, I am having such a great code day
[10:05] <SuperMatt> I'm writing a library which takes a golang struct, and converts it in to a routing table, so you don't have to write long lists of routes for an API
[11:16] <foobarry> forgot to sign in to irc for a week. what did i miss?
[11:17] <brobostigon> our pm's voice falling over a contipated cat.
[11:17] <brobostigon> constipated cat*
[11:19] <brobostigon> sorry, i was trying to make a joke.

[13:43] <diddledan> nasa likes their balloon room: https://arstechnica.co.uk/science/2017/10/nasa-inflatable-room-space-station/
[14:06] <Rixon> is there any way I can install a package in recovery (read only) mode without remounting as rw?
[14:07] <Rixon> I'm trying to get extundelete whilst in recovery mode to avoid writing to the root fs
[14:13] <Rixon> do I need to make a desktop LiveCD or can I install packages in ram on server install CD somehow?
[14:15] <ali1234> you can install packages in the live cd environment
[14:15] <ali1234> i dont think you can do it on the server install
[14:16] <Rixon> ok ty =)
[14:16] <Rixon> I was trying to use the server install CD but quickly realised ash has a very limited set of commands, I think it's busybox?
[14:39] <ali1234> yes probably
[14:45] <daftykins> you probably want to take a disk image before having a stab
[14:51] <diddledan> daftykins: STEP AWAY FROM THE HARD DRIVE
[14:52] <daftykins> ;D
[14:54] <diddledan> I really need to shut everything down, pull all the cables out and reorganise/tidy up my desk
[14:55] <diddledan> I'm sure half of my power cables are going nowhere
[14:57] <daftykins> :>
[14:57] <daftykins> you don't work beside all the racked gear you obtained, do you?
[14:58] <diddledan> ooh, esxi got a security patch today
[14:59] <diddledan> I might do :-p
[14:59] <daftykins> surely there's some noise to that!
[14:59] <diddledan> not too bad
[14:59] <daftykins> how do they tend to apply those, just lazily click in management software, or?
[15:00] <diddledan> the paid editions have easy one click updates. the freebie you have to do it via the cli
[15:00] <daftykins> ugh i finally got a response from the insurance adjuster as the works at mine have been held up for a couple of weeks again, but he's making me get yet more paperwork
[15:00] <diddledan> gah
[15:00] <daftykins> ah :>
[15:00] <diddledan> have to run this to update the freebie:
[15:01] <diddledan> https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/nQQEceSV/
[15:01] <daftykins> ooh err
[15:01] <diddledan> the -p argument changes depending on which update you're applying
[15:59] <m0nkey_> God damnit Amazon. Post office says the package has been received and ready for collection, but I can't collect it because Amazon hasn't sent me the collection notice.
[16:00] <daftykins> o0
[16:00] <diddledan> \o/
[16:02] <m0nkey_> Amazon give us the option to have it delivered to the local post office
[16:03] <m0nkey_> Mostly because their courrier in Montreal blows and everybody knows it.
[16:05] <diddledan> yodel. canada edition.?
[16:07] <daftykins> XD
[16:07] <daftykins> or almost any courier on Guernsey
[16:27] <arsenip> there are couriers on the island?
[16:28] <arsenip> or are we talking about farm animals being used as mule slaves?
[16:28] <arsenip> :D
[16:28] <daftykins> ;) mostly it's undesirables in an unmarket white van operating on behalf of ones that exist in England
[16:28] <daftykins> arsenip: you anywhere near SW6 these days? i'm over next week
[16:28] <daftykins> client bought another pad, haha
[16:29] <arsenip> whaey
[16:29] <arsenip> where?
[16:29] <arsenip> oh
[16:29] <arsenip> nay
[16:29] <arsenip> im in SW16
[16:29] <arsenip> my house.
[16:30] <daftykins> o0
[16:30] <daftykins> ah well that's only down the road!
[16:30] <daftykins> and over a wet bit
[16:31] <daftykins> arsenip: right beside chelsea stadium anywho
[16:31] <arsenip> gotcha
[16:32] <daftykins> and Brompton Cemetary
[16:34] <daftykins> thinking of going to the vue beside to watch the new Blade Runner when i'm over
[17:08] <daftykins> diddledan: lul - https://www.macrumors.com/2017/10/05/macos-high-sierra-disk-utility-vulnerability/
[19:38] <diddledan> do I wanna get one of these? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Digital-Device-Twin-Tuner-TV-Karte-DVB-S-S2-PCI-Express-Karte-DD-Cine-S2-V7A-/311899875954?hash=item489eae6a72:g:GxsAAOSwPK1ZSQnA
[19:38] <diddledan> native support under linux in the mainline kernel (no third-party drivers)
[19:40] <daftykins> if i were to get such i'd check the support for 'backend' setups that can pipe out to things like Kodi on the frontend
[19:40] <daftykins> then rather than just use on one box, have it networkable to any device
[19:41] <daftykins> i'd kinda like to play with such a setup but money and time to get broadcast TV? haha no :D
[21:06] <ali1234> TBS have linux drivers for all their cards
[21:07] <ali1234> https://www.tbsdtv.com/products/tbs6902-dvb-s2-dual-tuner-pcie-card.html
[21:09] <diddledan> ali1234: except they're third-party drivers that aren't guaranteed to continue supporting new kernels
[21:09] <ali1234> true
[21:09] <ali1234> better than nothing though
[21:09] <diddledan> that was my point above
[21:37] <daftykins> i'd love to be able to offer a decent IP solution to compete against the new Sky Q setups
[21:47] <m0nkey_> new GbE switch is live
[21:51] <daftykins> how's the fan noise level? my clients one had quite the whine to it
[21:52] <daftykins> the TP-Link 48 port has no fan at all :D
[21:54] <m0nkey_> No fan in the v4
[21:55] <m0nkey_> So it's 0dB :)
[21:58] <daftykins> funky!
[21:58] <daftykins> concerns me about putting it in in London tbh
