[05:55] howdy all [08:46] allo allo [09:13] morning [09:15] oh gawd: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1734147 [09:15] Launchpad bug 1734147 in linux (Ubuntu) "Ubuntu 17.10 corrupting BIOS - many LENOVO laptops models" [Critical,Confirmed] [09:23] glad i don't have a lenovo [11:08] it does seem telling that Ubuntu is randomly killing Lenovos and Microsoft had to prevent the Creator's Release of Windows from going to a slew of Lenovos, too, also due to EFI shenanigans [11:57] and if you turn off efi and use good old bios does the problem persist? [12:05] wanna play tron in ssh ? ssh sshtron.zachlatta.com [12:11] wow, cool, :) [12:14] lol: "vim keybindings for movement" [12:14] so you can never get out [12:19] you'll stay there till you learn vim like nature intended... [23:36] Does anyone know of any software I can use to stream the video/audio from aa Windows PC to a Linux one? I have tried moonlight and it'd be perfect apart from the audio sounds horrible [23:38] on the same network? why is file sharing or UPnP not viable? [23:38] on the same network, yes, because there is no file, I want to stream the display output. [23:39] can you backup with the actual task instead of that, sounds a bit x-y problem right now :> [23:39] aren't there entire protocols to do streaming from one device to another... i seem to remember a bunch of letter soups for sharing video audio last time i used windows [23:40] daftykins: VR PC is in my office, and has a Vive connected to it via a long HDMI cable that runs into my lounge, HTPC is in my lounge. I want to be able to view the monitor of VR PC on my HTPC in the lounge, so that people can see what's going on in VR. [23:40] ugh. [23:40] so you want a steam link? [23:41] don't think that's the same thing [23:41] ali1234: yes, except that doesn't work ( see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZPocek885M ) [23:41] put in a second HDMI cable [23:42] ali1234: that's an issue too, I would want to do display mirroring, but the TV only has one 4k HDMI input. [23:42] time to get a receiver [23:42] or a better TV :D [23:43] or a bad ass HTPC that can do VR [23:43] I'm just wondering if I can achieve this with OBS, actually :) [23:43] ali1234: haha, because I totally need a third top end machine in my home where only I live [23:43] xD [23:47] "I would want to do display mirroring, but the TV only has one 4k HDMI input." - i don't see how they are related [23:48] video also seems to suggest the solution is 'walk a few feet away and click a button' ;D [23:48] = zero sympathy [23:48] ali1234: HTPC is using the 4k input, I can't now plug the VR PC into that same 4k input, as its in use [23:49] daftykins: but...effort :( [23:49] get a switch box? [23:49] ali1234: that could also work [23:49] hey buddy, you're the one that runs Linux :> [23:49] * daftykins ducks [23:50] daftykins: haha [23:50] i was just setting up OBS actually [23:50] yea, apparently if I compile nginx with the RTSP module and set up OBS, it's possible [23:51] which sounds like a PITA, but at least it's a possibility [23:51] my first dabble with it had me appreciating twitch streamers for editing layouts live, a whole lot more [23:56] i need a green screen [23:56] what would you stream? i thought you had dialup level upload :> [23:57] i got better internet [23:57] oh nice, what changed? [23:57] switched to zen [23:57] i thought your phone line was the problem? [23:58] it still is, but VDSL is way faster to start with [23:59] yeah i'm on VDSL2, but it's only faster depending on line length :> [23:59] i had about 500kbit upload before, now its 20mbit
