[02:58] good morning === gry_ is now known as gry [06:49] Good morning [08:34] Hello! [08:39] Hello marcoagpinto [08:39] hey hey [08:39] >:) [08:39] I have been working on the GB speller for ~2 hours [08:39] :) [08:39] what's up? [08:40] Everything is fine marcoagpinto. How about you? [08:40] well, right now I am feeling fine and drinking my cola bottle [08:40] :) [08:41] Nice bottle. I have made changes to my blog. Sidebar and site wallpaper [08:43] cool [08:43] yesterday, when I said that grey font was hard to read, I was referring to the site wallpaper [08:43] :) [08:45] marcoagpinto: Now, can you read gray text using the new wallpaper? [08:45] let me check [08:45] Buaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa [08:46] yes, but the previous wallpaper looked better [08:46] there were just the grey issue [08:46] were=was* [08:47] OK. [10:52] Hey folks [11:07] BluesKaj: Hello!!!! I was buying cola [11:07] hi marcoagpinto, of course you were ... [11:08] >:) [11:54] Snaps are evil, and are breaking ubuntu, #prove me wrong [11:54] its the users choice fallenour [11:55] if you dont want snaps, dont use them? [11:55] I cant choose, thats part of the issue lotuspsychje. The last LXD update for packages is 2.X, snap is 3.X [11:55] !latest [11:55] Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. [11:56] Id upgrade instantly, melt the sun, freeze the North, whatever it took to make it work, but theres just not a solution it seems for 16.04LTS, and I havent seen one for 18.04LTS either. [11:56] I mean latest stable, not latest latest, I rarely if ever install those. [11:57] or consider moving up a higher ubuntu version [11:57] if itll fix it, id move to 19.04 [11:57] I have images for 18.04 atm [11:57] non-lts isnt really reccomended for server production [11:57] 18.04, or 19.04? [11:58] 18.04 = lts 19.04 non-lts [11:59] Im going to risk upgrading one of my ha primary storage controllers to test [11:59] Ill try literally anything [12:00] upgrading what to what? [12:00] ill even try sysadmin cat, which would probably work best. 16.04LTS > 18.04LTS [12:00] Im super paranoid about snaps because of all of the issues they cause, as demonstrated here. [12:02] ok now this is just... its saying theres no upgrade for 16.04 to 18.04, that just simply cant be right [12:02] whats everyones general experience with MaaS > Juju > === gry_ is now known as gry === lotus|i5 is now known as lotuspsychje [14:35] My USB Wifi dongle was google while the computer was not moving, but that i move it around a bit, it's not so good in fact. [14:38] looks like you have an imperfect auto correction which things that google is an inherently good thing there [14:38] *thinKs - apparently i don't have auto correction [14:42] :D [14:42] I didn't even notice. [14:42] I thing when somethink is spult incorectly its moor entraining [14:42] And i skipped the "now" too. [14:42] Hehe [14:43] Anyone got serious with SDN/Openflow and have opinions on hardware? [14:47] i could repeat what i think i suggested last time you asked something that was above my pay grade: /join ##networking. but then you already did, just didn't ask *this* question there. [14:49] i thnk the last network guy who i feel really knows what he does *and* liked SDN was happy with a mix of juniper and arista [14:50] *guy i met / knew [14:51] I'm going lowbrow... looking at the NorthBound Zodiak GX all F/OSS and the earlier FX was a kickstarter project that worked in conjunction with a RasPi [14:53] those whose USP is "PRICE INCLUDES FREE SHIPPING!!111" [14:54] looks liek they're sold out? [14:56] i guess you can build those yourself based on pcengines apu2, though [14:59] possibly but it isn't urgent; I'm designing a BSc degree level apprenticeship course that has a large networking component and want to make SDN the core and give students real hardware to work with [15:00] where can i register? [15:01] looks like development is complete. https://github.com/NorthboundNetworks/ZodiacGX [15:02] for security it's all paper based :D [15:02] write your encrypted packets on paper aeroplanes and throw them :p [15:04] ah, too, bad, i don't use paper anymore for ecological reasons. (i only buy ikea shelves). [15:06] yes, folks have got their hands on GXs, presumably they're manufactured in batches [15:07] more seriously... you've given me an idea. Maybe we can deliver some of the course using remote learning (if students can obtain the hardware themselves or we sell it) - only been thinking in terms of delivering this through employers (like us) who want to train people rapidly and with depth and quality [15:11] webinaaaah! [15:12] it could certainly be nice to offer this to a brader audience, yes. [15:12] *brOader [15:13] It could make it more profitable for us for sure and it'd obvisouly scale well - though we'd have to think through how we'd manage demand for personal supervision to keep students on-track and motivated [15:18] i can see how this instantly blows up the size of this project [15:20] Well I was already planning on using ATutor/AContent to deliver and manage the courses and that purposed-designed for web delivery. I contributed some patches to those projects a few years ago. I recall relatively recently the retiring Professor appealing for a new maintainer but at the time didn't have a reason to volunteer... shall have to revisit that [15:30] i never heard of those before, but i'm not really into this kind of software. by the looks (web design, urls) atutor must have been developed during php3 times originally. [15:33] it's also full of XSS :-/ [15:33] and probably worse [15:33] yes, sqli too [15:33] that'd be a lot of work [15:43] yeah .... interia and technical debt. Patches are still flowing in from other devs to fix CVEs though. Probably better to choose Moodle since it has a much more active dev community [15:43] Originally I didn't like it due to what it was based around, or language/framework. Cannot recall now what my precise objection was [15:49] moodle had the same issues, and apparently still has to a degree, but it's been under a lot more scrutiny already, due to the larger user base, i agree. [15:50] the other day i read someonthing about a newly done open source web conferencing with a focus on education, which looked good, and also had seemed to have more orginizing features. but i already forgot the name. [15:53] I hope it was built around jitsi :) [15:54] i don't really know, but that's what i was thinking of, too [15:54] the new jitsi thing looks great [15:56] hmm i can't seem to find it anymore. [15:58] It is... deploying it for a conference room and for remote health/doctor consultations === gry_ is now known as gry
