[10:04:59] <SirFinkus> tonight 8pm to 3am
[10:05:07] <SirFinkus> and we get to do it all next weeked
[10:10:25] <Booga1> thirteen hour days with wild swings from 11am start to 8pm start? Is that a work schedule?
[10:10:47] <Booga1> If so, that's a recipe for health issues. :P
[10:13:15] <SirFinkus> I'm a roadie
[10:13:44] <Booga1> Oh. That would explain it.

[12:43:08] <pinchy> anyone here still use a cellphone with a slider keypad?
[12:43:36] <pinchy> ive been using some ancient LG slider phone that works like a champ till some of the buttons started getting flakey
[12:44:09] <chromas> Okay, grandpa, time for your pills
[12:44:10] <pinchy> i found out about old motorola droid 3 that has a nice keybaord. the top row is dedicated numbers
[12:44:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> chromas, wut?
[12:44:45] <pinchy> i got one off ebay. CDMA phone and it wasnt able to activate. took it to verizon and they said nothing we can do about it
[12:45:04] <pinchy> "but theres plenty of other phones to upgrade to. how about the ishit 7"
[12:45:53] <chromas> 7 has awesome lightning connector. like the button. soon it will have only one of everything. and that's a good thing
[12:46:23] <pinchy> only reason i have a phone is for dating. other than that I might use it to call 2 or 3 times a year

[12:48:43] <pinchy> they look ok. of course no top number row like that droid 3 but its still too expensive

[12:52:21] <chromas> When I had a keyboard phone, it couldn't keep up with my fingers. The great thing about the touchscreen is it slows me down ;)
[12:52:50] <chromas> Usually it would skip letters because the next button was pressed too soon
[12:55:54] <pinchy> is there a name for the feature ive seen where unstead of tapping each key u drag your finger to each letter
[12:56:13] <pinchy> and it will try to autocomplete it

[22:36:38] * OverWatcher is Deucalion - just updating / upgrading my bouncer box
[22:41:38] <BadCoderFinger> Oh, hey juggs, how are you?
[22:42:42] <OverWatcher> not bad thanks - having a lazy weekend mostly
[22:43:29] <OverWatcher> unsurprisingly - looks like I need to recompile ZNC following my upgrade shenanigans
[22:43:48] <BadCoderFinger> The endless upgrade train, gotta love it.
[22:44:12] <BadCoderFinger> Not that I'm immune, I did my time with Arch, heh.
[22:44:59] <OverWatcher> Sounds painful. This is very much vanilla debian server so pretty much as straight forward as it comes

[22:45:32] -!- mode/#Soylent [+v Deucalion] by Aphrodite
[22:46:03] <BadCoderFinger> Yeah, Debian was always the least amount of headache to upgrade.
[22:46:28] <OverWatcher> aha - more a case of a little patience rather than needing to recompile znc it seems :)
[22:46:46] <BadCoderFinger> Aw, I'm a coder, I never pass up a chance to recompile!
[22:47:24] <OverWatcher> I will have to anyway as I need to grab a newer version - just wanted to upgrade the OS first
[22:50:42] <BadCoderFinger> In that case, happy compiling!
[22:50:56] <BadCoderFinger> If you hit a snag, maybe I can help.
[22:53:47] <OverWatcher> hmmm.... seems znc 1.4 is now in the jessie repos (it was some horrible out of date version in the wheezy repos). /me needs to look at the change logs between 1.4 & current 1.6 versions then decide whether to go with the repo version or not
[22:54:14] <BadCoderFinger> Two minor versions could mean a lot of reading...
[22:55:01] <OverWatcher> indeed. I know there's been a lot of functionality changes - but last I read nothing additional I would actually use! More concerned if there are any security patches
[22:55:46] * OverWatcher takes post upgrade snapshot
[22:56:23] <BadCoderFinger> btrfs snapshot?
[22:56:38] <OverWatcher> vps snapshot
[22:56:45] <BadCoderFinger> Ah, cool.
[22:57:10] <OverWatcher> my connection at home is too damn flaky to run anything that needs any kind of connectivity reliability
[22:58:06] <BadCoderFinger> Yeah, I'm in the same boat. I'm rather unwilling to give comcast any money, so it's CenturyLink, which is almost as bad. Much like presidents, ISPs are always a choice of lesser evils.
[22:58:28] * OverWatcher looks askance at Deucalion - he shouldn't still be here... the VPS is powered down ffs lol. Guess he'll timeout shortly
[22:58:42] -!- Deucalion has quit [Ping timeout: 244 seconds]
[22:58:53] <OverWatcher> And thar it goes
[22:58:59] <BadCoderFinger> Heh!
[22:59:40] <BadCoderFinger> Internet ghosts... Isn't there a good movie about those? With a crappy remake on the way?
[22:59:57] <OverWatcher> Ghost In The Machine or some such?
[23:00:07] <BadCoderFinger> Yeah, that was the joke.
[23:00:31] <BadCoderFinger> Not an exact fit, though, so maybe not as funny as it was in my head.
[23:01:36] * OverWatcher entirely missed the joke... but then I'm not really paying full attention here... never been great at multi tasking :D
[23:03:15] <BadCoderFinger> It's ok, I'm an odd one, my humour isn't always on the right wavelength.
[23:05:41] <OverWatcher> right wavelength for you - you gives a damn if others get it or not :D

[23:06:07] <BadCoderFinger> Yeah, well, respect is the true currency of an engineer.
[23:07:04] <BadCoderFinger> So sometimes it's nice when someone else is on the same wavelength. Of course, when I watch american tv, I'm rather happy that I don't relate.
[23:07:36] <OverWatcher> snapshot complete... powering up for final sanity checks... very smooth other than a couple of GPG keys and apt having a little brainfart and needing it's bottom cleaned

[23:10:35] <OverWatcher> Oh - and remembering to change the choice of kernel via the vps provider GUI.... still not sure I understand the need for that.... you do a dist-upgrade in the vm which pulls in a new vmlinuz kernel, but then it actually boots up with something else defined in the hypervisor I guess ~shrug~
[23:10:52] <OverWatcher> right oh... time to check this shizzle out
[23:11:10] <BadCoderFinger> That's... odd. You'd think there would be one and only one way to select the kernel.
[23:12:34] <OverWatcher> The hypervisor seems to just inject the kernel at boot time - think it's a KVM thing. ~shrug~ I'm no expert on that
[23:12:55] <BadCoderFinger> Yeah, that's a QEMU thing, inherited by KVM.
[23:13:38] <BadCoderFinger> They should replace the internal method with a warning, though. "You should really change your kernel via the admin interface, this won't work."
[23:14:30] * OverWatcher hugs debian.... 39MB RAM used (ignoring cache).... not that it's really doing a lot, but that's a teeny amount these days :)
[23:14:42] <BadCoderFinger> Definitely!
[23:15:04] <BadCoderFinger> My work box (Xubuntu, sigh) has a lot of RAM chewed up.

[23:17:37] <BadCoderFinger> My OpenBSD craptop is 144 MB.
[23:18:04] <OverWatcher> I'm not sure how they could insert that warning though without getting all intrusive on what people are doing within their VMs. In the provider GUI this vps still shows as debian 6 but actually it's been upgraded to 7 and now 8. These cloudy vps providers really have nailed the whole orchestration stuff, it's so damn slick being able to spin instances up and down willy nilly in less than a minute.
[23:18:57] <BadCoderFinger> Yeah, that's true. It would seem like crossing the line.
[23:19:44] <OverWatcher> My minty craptop is currently eating 1.5GB - but meh, headless servers and desktop UI installs are very different beasts
[23:20:20] <OverWatcher> It's not like RAM is the ridiculously expensive proposition it was many years ago
[23:21:13] <BadCoderFinger> That's true, I prefer mine to be ZFS cache, heh.
[23:21:49] <BadCoderFinger> Which OpenBSD does not have. That's the reason I still have a FreeBSD box.
[23:23:23] <OverWatcher> OK - nginx has shat its ssl config for some reason during the upgrade
[23:24:17] <BadCoderFinger> Natch!
[23:25:44] <Deucalion> Andd... back
[23:27:39] * Deucalion goes to poke nginx with a stick and see what is up with the ssl/tls stuff thar
[23:31:41] <BadCoderFinger> Hey, mostly there, can't complain about that.
[23:32:33] <Deucalion> newp - easy fix I'm sure.
[23:48:07] * Deucalion chortles to self... seems I never setup ssl on this nginx instance - kinda splains why it's not working now
[23:48:28] -!- OverWatcher [OverWatcher!~02dec5e3@2.222.gku.oms] has parted #Soylent
[23:57:03] <mecctro> it happens
[23:58:23] <Deucalion> there's nothing of note being served - just some MUD maps I did way back when SN had a MUD server running
[23:59:46] <Deucalion> not going to bother
[23:59:59] <mecctro> probably not even worth it.
