[03:59] <TJ-> morning lotuspsychje ... it's been a long night sorting out regressions for the PTI kernels
[04:00] <Sveta> this whole 'kernel' thing is disproportionately large and monstrous and i'm not terribly happy with it, but it works so i'm trying to stop thinking of it
[04:00] <TJ-> Sveta: how do you mean?
[04:03] <lotuspsychje> TJ-: yeah i bet!
[04:03] <lotuspsychje> tnx for helping out TJ-
[04:04] <Sveta> TJ-: too many components
[04:04] <TJ-> Sveta: you mean the number of different kernel packages?
[04:06] <TJ-> I managed to reproduce the lost NIC link detection on identical hardware... was writing up the bug report... the issue stopped happening! so now I'm not sure what was going on. Going to try it on a 3rd identical device later today
[06:42] <ducasse> good morning, all
[06:43] <alkisg> Good morning ducasse, hi everyone
[06:45] <ducasse> hi alkisg \o - all good?
[06:46] <alkisg> All well! Except.. troubleshooting netbooted clients' shutdown issues due to systemd. Not _very_ fun... :D
[06:46] <alkisg> How are you?
[06:47] <ducasse> i'm fine, thanks - just about to feed the cat so she'll stop pestering me :)
[07:06] <lordievader> Good morning

[12:54] <BluesKaj> just switched vpn servers, probly be gone for a while , this one seems to be throttling
[13:12] <TJ-> Hmmm, whyever does mount/kernel rely on symlinks rather than block device nodes. symlinks can break and then the system gets very confused
[15:09] <ducasse> alkisg: well, that was fun :)
[15:09] <alkisg> Hehe
[15:09] <alkisg> Fortunately I got used to it after years in IRC
[15:10] <alkisg> The first times it happened I was very frustrated, I even left IRC for a few months
[15:10] <ducasse> all too common, unfortunately...
[15:11] <alkisg> Yeah, I've seen much worse :)
[15:12] <daftykins> ?
[15:13] <ducasse> so have i, but it was still amusing :)
[15:14] <ducasse> daftykins: "i want software that does x and y by using magic"
[15:14] <TJ-> Be fun being a fly on the wall the first time they lose concurrent edits due to 'VFS'
