[00:30] <nicomachus> daftykins: I fixed the internet issue on the rpi
[00:31] <daftykins> without the total wipe? :D
[00:31] <nicomachus> it wasn't the rpi's fault.
[00:32] <nicomachus> the fiber jack for the whole apartment was zonked
[00:32] <daftykins> woot O_O
[00:32] <nicomachus> internet for the whole apartment finally went out friday night. Finally got a tech in this afternoon and back up and running.
[00:33] <daftykins> bit weird you were on from other devices... or were you chatting to us over mobile data o0
[00:34] <nicomachus> I'm not sure about that part.
[00:34] <nicomachus> also I wiped the pi and installed OSMC
[00:34] <nicomachus> which I like so far.
[00:35] <daftykins> done a full teardown, dust, replace fans + CPU/mobo/RAM on my home server today :)
[00:36] <daftykins> been messing about with vmware ESXi on it instead then trying to pass through the RAID controller card to a guest VM to handle my main storage volume
[00:36] <nicomachus> how much storage?
[00:36] <daftykins> the disks are approaching 4 years old now, but it's a 6 x 2TB RAID5
[00:54] <daftykins> nicomachus: got some snaps if you're interested, was quite the task!
[01:12] <nicomachus> snaps?
[01:13] <daftykins> pics
[01:13] <daftykins> link in PM ok? :>
[01:14] <nicomachus> ok
[01:19] <nicomachus> that is a large tower
[01:19] <daftykins> ^_^
[01:19] <nicomachus> what is that, 3 feet tall?
[01:19]  * daftykins grabs a tape measure
[01:20] <nicomachus> maybe 4
[01:20] <daftykins> just 2 feet
[01:24] <daftykins> big upgrade and also a great power drop \o/ haven't seen the numbers yet though
[01:24] <daftykins> and now it's time to sleep as i've been messing with it way too long :>
[01:25] <pauljw> :)
[01:26] <daftykins> good news is it no longer breaks!
[01:26] <daftykins> but for how long...

[11:40] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[11:42] <JimBuntu> Good morning BluesKaj
[11:42] <BluesKaj> 'Morning JimBuntu
[11:53]  * BluesKaj is a little under the weather today. Had too many beers at our weekly jam yesterday.
[11:53] <BluesKaj> Tylenol for breakfast :-)
[11:57] <JimBuntu> Sounds like you had fun though.
[11:57] <BluesKaj> yup, we usually do
[11:59] <BluesKaj> I was somewhat irresponsible, especially at my age...takes me too long to recover
[12:01] <BluesKaj> still upgrades in the repos...already heard some complaints , now there'll be more
[12:01] <BluesKaj> no
[12:59] <lotuspsychje> good afternoon
[13:02] <BluesKaj> Hey lotuspsychje
[13:03] <lotuspsychje> hey BluesKaj
[13:10] <lotuspsychje> hey pragmaticenigma
[13:11] <pragmaticenigma> a'lo lotuspsychje
[13:24] <hggdh> morning to all. Or afternoon, or evening, as it may be
[13:25] <lotuspsychje> hey hggdh how are you today
[13:26] <lotuspsychje> hggdh: tnx for editing last factoids suggested
[13:26] <hggdh> don't know yet, have not had a coffee. But I think I will survive & thrive, even with my current contract screwing up firewalls daily
[13:28] <hggdh> lotuspsychje: we do see the requests; then it is a question of timing for who will accept it
[13:29] <lotuspsychje> ah kk, just dont wanna spam the channel, thats all hggdh
[13:29] <hggdh> to be honest, I did not change factoids for a while now, usually either AFK or busy
[13:30] <hggdh> a request for factoid change is not spamming , so please feel free to point other issues to us
[13:30] <lotuspsychje> ok cool
[13:31] <hggdh> now THAT is something. One update this morning on libwavpack1, and the system needs a reboot
[13:31] <hggdh> BRB
[13:41] <hggdh> so, it turns out that pop-os, based on 18.04, gets left-handedness correct on the tablet (which 18.04 does NOT)
[13:42] <hggdh> ugh, not on the tablet, but on the touchpad
[14:27] <lotuspsychje> i strongly reccomend new dconf-editor on bionic :p
[14:27] <lotuspsychje> !info dconf-editor bionic
[14:48] <Gargravarr> the best-laid plans of mice and men... installed macOS Sierra on a spare MBP, upgraded to High Sierra, tested Docker, builds etc., all working. upgrade my work assigned MBP to High Sierra -> freezes halfway through, having to restart from recovery. even upgrading to Bionic pre-release went smoother than this...
[14:49] <Gargravarr> OS upgrades are such a minefield >_<
[14:53] <lotuspsychje> yay to ubuntu :p
[14:53] <Gargravarr> lotuspsychje: indeed. all you need to fix any Linux machine is a root shell
[14:54] <lotuspsychje> :p
[14:54] <Gargravarr> round 2 - FIGHT
[14:54] <lotuspsychje> i worked in service center for repairing windows pc's..that was a nightmare with overnight updates
[14:55] <lotuspsychje> i feel nervous just thinking of it..
[14:55] <Gargravarr> previous place i worked was all Windows. nobody ever shut down their PCs and management wouldn't let IT reboot them remotely. guess how far out of date they were
[14:58] <Gargravarr> (after WannaCry made the news, management finally relented and IT were allowed to force updates that rebooted people's machines, but that's how long it took. this company has existed since 1995)
[14:59] <lotuspsychje> yeah alot of campanys def. need help on IT
[14:59] <lotuspsychje> we cant generalize of course
[14:59] <Gargravarr> lotuspsychje: i would agree with you if this company was not a tech company
[14:59] <Gargravarr> but it was a freaking .Net software house
[14:59] <lotuspsychje> lol
[15:00] <lotuspsychje> Gargravarr: thats the danger of admins thinking their god, they overlook so much basics
[15:00] <Gargravarr> s/admins/management/
[15:00] <Gargravarr> admins had next to no power there, still don't
[15:05]  * Gargravarr is root/BOfH/god here though :D
[15:05] <lotuspsychje> lol
[15:05] <Gargravarr> security updates pushed out with Landscape as often as it nags me (guh...)
[15:06] <lotuspsychje> where you from Gargravarr
[15:06] <Gargravarr> UK
[15:06] <lotuspsychje> cool, belgium here
[15:06] <lotuspsychje> whats your current Os?
[15:06] <Gargravarr> 18.04 at work, Mint at home
[15:07] <lotuspsychje> bionic and ubports on all machines here
[15:07] <Gargravarr> we run a heterogenous network of Ubuntu and macOS, roughly 50/50
[15:07] <Gargravarr> Xenial and Sierra
[15:07] <lotuspsychje> Gargravarr: at home or business?
[15:07] <Gargravarr> business
[15:08] <lotuspsychje> Gargravarr: what kind of?
[15:08] <Gargravarr> software startup - AI
[15:08] <lotuspsychje> neat
[15:09] <lotuspsychje> cant recall your nick in main here? you support here?
[15:20] <lotuspsychje> !enviromentvariables
[15:53] <Gargravarr> lotuspsychje: only joined this year. i lend a hand in the main channel from time to time
[16:01] <lotuspsychje> cool Gargravarr
[16:27]  * JimBuntu is only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)
[16:27] <lotuspsychje> lol
[16:28]  * lotuspsychje you can search my brain on 127.0.0.1
[16:42] <lotuspsychje> tv time guys
[16:42] <lotuspsychje> laterz
[18:36] <EriC^^> why do i get the sense that futtbucker is a troll
[18:46] <pragmaticenigma> EriC^^: because reasons
[18:47] <pragmaticenigma> DIR-64 just admin booted
[18:47] <EriC^^> yeah i get the feeling it's the same guy
[18:48] <EriC^^> yeah he's not too anal after all
[18:48] <EriC^^> xD
[18:54] <pragmaticenigma> Should say that ubot** is the leader
[18:54] <pragmaticenigma> pings ops which will be self resolving
[18:54] <EriC^^> i was thinking to mention Drone, then thought better not feed him :D
[18:55] <oerheks> let me talk to the leader
[18:55] <pragmaticenigma> Drone doesn't reply... ubottu forwards comments to the ops channel
[18:55] <oerheks> *hips*
[18:55] <EriC^^> pragmaticenigma: he does?
[18:56] <pragmaticenigma> Yes, when people respond to ubottu, it pings the ops room...
[18:56] <EriC^^> i dont believe so, let me try
[18:56] <pragmaticenigma> rather it fowards the message to ops
[18:59] <pragmaticenigma> EriC^^: it only works from main chat... not if you message the bot directly
[18:59] <pragmaticenigma> EriC^^: and I don't recommend trying it
[20:13] <pragmaticenigma> dang support just went to the dogs or something
[20:13] <JimBuntu> Same thing if I feed ubottu cookies?
[20:14] <leftyfb> pragmaticenigma: seer's question is most certainly on topic
[20:15] <pragmaticenigma> No... A.) They're whining about a 5 to 10 second delay... B.) Anything that relies on an internet connection is going to encounter slowdowns depending on connection quality and server loads
[20:16] <leftyfb> pragmaticenigma: 5-10 seconds for the app store to load up or whatever is certainly something to complain about
[20:17] <pragmaticenigma> leftyfb: it's not the loading of the app... it's the execution of a package isntall they're complaining about
[20:17] <leftyfb> pragmaticenigma: did you ask if using apt install on the commandline takes just as long?
[20:18] <pragmaticenigma> leftyfb: direct quote from seer: <seer> But not everyone is a terminal power user. So I was wondering why the ubuntu software center GUI is always so slow
[20:20]  * JimBuntu ventures into the app center, has to dust the cobwebs outta the way first.
[20:22] <JimBuntu> nope. It's not "always" slow, seems to be as peppy as I would expect over here.
