| lordievader | Doing good here. | 06:18 |
| lordievader | Currently without a homedir on my server 😋 | 06:18 |
| lordievader | It was a 'bit' overdimensioned. | 06:19 |
| lotuspsychje | leech it empty :p | 06:19 |
| lordievader | Unfortunately lvm doesn't support reducing of raid volumes -.- | 06:20 |
| EriC^^ | !ping | 07:22 |
| ubot5 | pong! | 07:22 |
| EriC^^ | morning all | 08:39 |
| BluesKaj | 'Morning folks | 10:35 |
| ducasse | morning BluesKaj - how are you doing? | 10:36 |
| BluesKaj | Hey ducasse , doing fine here, and you? | 10:40 |
| ducasse | i'm good, just bought a new tv :) | 10:41 |
| BluesKaj | ahh, what make and size ? | 10:49 |
| BluesKaj | and are you connecting it up to your nice stereo ? | 10:50 |
| BluesKaj | ducasse: ^ | 10:52 |
| ducasse | BluesKaj: it's a sony 46" - kdl-46w5500. getting it 2nd hand for a decent price, looks to be a fairly high-end model. | 10:58 |
| ducasse | i only have the one optical input on the stereo, might use analog i guess | 10:59 |
| ducasse | it has 4 hdmi inputs, which is nice - i only have 2 now and need at least one more | 11:00 |
| BluesKaj | yeah Sonys are nice well designed TVs, has a reutation for high quality picture and sound | 11:01 |
| ducasse | i checked a couple of reviews, it had pretty high scores for excellent picture and above average sound | 11:02 |
| BluesKaj | er reputatation | 11:02 |
| BluesKaj | oops can't spell this morning | 11:03 |
| ducasse | or reputation :) | 11:03 |
| BluesKaj | yeah i end up using the stereo mode on alot of programs these days ..think my ceneter channel speaker has deteriorated | 11:03 |
| ducasse | either way it's better than what i have now, a low-end tv that is slowly dying. it's started randomly switching inputs and suddenly won't receive signals from the remote | 11:06 |
| BluesKaj | right ..time for the boneyard :-) | 11:06 |
| BluesKaj | looking for a match to my old Pardigm 5Semk3s which is the CC-300, i located one near Niagara Falls which is about 90 mins drive from Toronto where i'll be visiting next week | 11:07 |
| ducasse | i'll be moving it to the bedroom to watch movies on the old rpi | 11:08 |
| BluesKaj | ducasse: which OS are you using on the rpi? | 11:09 |
| ducasse | this tv is located just a couple of km from here, so a bit closer than that :) | 11:10 |
| ducasse | i'm using xbian, quite happy with it | 11:10 |
| BluesKaj | raspbian here | 11:11 |
| ducasse | of the various kodi-centric distros i've tried, xbian suits me the best. nice to have access to full apt repos etc | 11:12 |
| BluesKaj | right | 11:13 |
| BluesKaj | wonder what the diff between xbian and raspbian is , sounds like xbian puts the emphasis on video etc | 11:14 |
| ducasse | yes, it has some kodi-centric configuration screens etc | 11:18 |
| BluesKaj | kodi works well on the raspbian OS here..dunno if it's worth the trouble of installing xbian | 11:25 |
| ducasse | "if it ain't broken, don't fix it" | 11:28 |
| ducasse | but if you have a spare sd card it might be worth a look | 11:29 |
| BluesKaj | yeah, agreed ;-) | 11:29 |
| BluesKaj | well, i put the / on a usb connected HDD so the sdcard is only used to boot the system | 11:31 |
| BluesKaj | but i would still need another sd | 11:32 |
| BluesKaj | just discoverd i need another hdmi cable , i've used them all up on my new receiver | 11:33 |
| * BluesKaj heads over to amazon | 11:34 | |
| BluesKaj | gonna wait, just realized I won't be home when they deliver next week. The delivery services leave stuff by the front door and if I'm not home, then goodbye cable. | 11:47 |
| ducasse | can't you pick one up on your trip? | 11:54 |
| BluesKaj | just odered one thru the local electronics store online division using the store pickup option instead of home delivery | 12:15 |
| BluesKaj | their online inventory is much larger than the store and the prices are much lower as well. | 12:17 |
| ducasse | sounds good :) | 12:20 |
| oerheks | EriC^^, :-D | 15:53 |
| leftyfb | trolling in .... 3 | 16:00 |
| EriC^^ | hey oerheks :D | 17:06 |
| oerheks | mint users .. "..if not, install ubuntu please, and you can do it." :-D | 17:58 |
| leftyfb | nacc: it just amazes me the constant learning :) | 18:21 |
| leftyfb | with linux that is | 18:21 |
| nacc | keeps us all in jobs :) | 18:22 |
| leftyfb | so today I'm pretty excited because I'm going to be pushing through a PR at my work that makes our robots site-agnostic. This is a huge milestone if it all works out well. Gonna make our lives WAY easier | 18:22 |
| Bashing-om | leftyfb: Large feather in the cap too ? | 18:26 |
| leftyfb | eh ... you would think so. But around here it's just par for the course. Actual engineers do way cooler things | 18:28 |
| Bashing-om | dang ! | 18:29 |
| leftyfb | yeah, we got some top people here | 18:29 |
| leftyfb | in this industry anyway | 18:30 |
| Bashing-om | Good peeps to work with ,, is a nice thing :) | 18:32 |
| nacc | i don't have the patience to deal with qwebirc today (on friday, esp.) | 22:08 |
| nacc | oerheks: if you want to step in, feel free :) | 22:08 |
| oerheks | :-) | 22:09 |
| oerheks | something is not right, apt-cache policy virtualbox perhaps? | 22:10 |
| nacc | oerheks: they still aren't using the multiverse package | 22:10 |
| nacc | so i assume they downloaded something wrong | 22:10 |
| oerheks | and steam, that did install, now virtualbox.,. | 22:13 |
| oerheks | i think we end up with steam not installing in virtualbox :-D | 22:13 |
| nacc | lol | 22:14 |
