[23:56:50] <chromas> butt also don't forget NMs are fake news now. It's marketing all the way down
[23:56:01] * chromas copypastes his fs now
[23:55:49] <chromas> hm, my f key doesn't work at all now
[23:55:33] <chromas> I thought that's what arduinos were or
[23:46:04] * Runaway1956 sighs
[23:45:34] <Runaway1956> s /entire/entire/
[23:45:04] <Runaway1956> at 7 nm, couldn't they hide an entier mainframe into something little - like a dildo?

[22:34:17] * Runaway1956 needs to disable DNS server on his shiny new Windows server - it wreaked havoc on host system, LOL
[22:33:07] <Runaway1956> A guy can always take a few bites out of a pizza, and leave the rest for the next customer.
[22:32:25] <Runaway1956> I knew one once, but she died of old age.
[22:32:23] <chromas> from the comments, "This reminds me post 9/11. I had to buy an uncut whole pizza at the airport because TSA had come around to the pizza vendors and took their pizza cutters."
[22:32:05] <requerdanos> yeah but where's a government going to find honest citizens? I don't know many
[22:32:02] <Runaway1956> I bet they didn't take any knives away from terrorists, or terroristic bikies, or common criminals.
[22:31:30] <Runaway1956> In a rational society, government would have given a survival knife to all honest citizens, so they could defend themselves against knife wielding terrorists.
[22:29:25] <chromas> no scissoring :'(
[22:24:30] <systemd> ^ 03Knives taken off supermarket shelves in New Zealand after terrorist attack
[22:24:29] <requerdanos> Not only gun control, it's... "Knife Control!" https://thehill.com

[19:26:38] <chromas> no surprise. aristarchus can barely do aristarchus
[19:25:43] <MasteroftheUniverse> runaway can do aristarchus better than aristarchus!
[19:22:45] <chromas> Runaway's turning into aristarchus before our very terminals!
[19:17:55] <Bender> karma - coffee: 5587
[19:17:55] <MasteroftheUniverse> coffee++
[19:17:31] <Runaway1956> You could make more coffee while you wait
[19:16:37] <MasteroftheUniverse> Time to do something different
[19:16:29] <MasteroftheUniverse> The waiting game resumes - WSUS is connecting to Microsoft servers, and it goes on and on and on . . .
[19:07:43] <MasteroftheUniverse> Server 2022 Version 21H2 (OS Build 20348.169)
[19:07:43] <MasteroftheUniverse> Win11 Win Version 21H2 (OS Buile 2200.176)
[19:00:49] <MasteroftheUniverse> Meaning, that bit of spyware isn't even installed
[19:00:45] <chromas> finally some good news!
[19:00:27] <MasteroftheUniverse> ahhh-HA! I followed a couple links, and learned that the Microsoft Store isn't accessible
[18:53:02] <chromas> What would you do for a klondike card?
[18:52:17] <MasteroftheUniverse> Huh - no Windows Solittaire
[18:48:18] <MasteroftheUniverse> Bring back some biscuits and gravy?
[18:47:57] * Bytram can procrastinate no more. Ambles off to have breakfast.
[18:45:47] <MasteroftheUniverse> Kinda
[18:45:26] <MasteroftheUniverse> I'm not familiar with Server 2019 or Server 2016 - You might say that this kinda feels like Server 2003 with a Win10 GUI
[18:43:45] <Bytram> So, sounds like they went through a bunch of UI changes (for those who were paying for maintenance so they actually got something for their money) so they could clean up underlying coding bugs, and eventually came back to where they started?!~
[18:41:47] <MasteroftheUniverse> probly have to hack it somehow
[18:41:28] <MasteroftheUniverse> I don't even know if Anytime works anymore
[18:41:19] <MasteroftheUniverse> I may have to do Anytime Upgrade on Dear Wife's computer so I can use Group Policy on it
[18:40:28] <MasteroftheUniverse> Yeah, TBH, it feels a lot like Win 7 Pro
[18:39:32] <janrinok> lol - you know how to make a man hurt
[18:39:27] <MasteroftheUniverse> That was a pretty horrible installation experience, but now that I'm finally in, it seems pretty good, for Windows
[18:39:09] <Bytram> So, like Win 7 Pro?
[18:37:50] <MasteroftheUniverse> Active directory, DNS server, whatever
[18:37:24] <MasteroftheUniverse> Well - it's a server. Want to serve a website from here? Just do it.
[18:36:57] <requerdanos> so it's kind of a meta thing
[18:36:43] <MasteroftheUniverse> In a few minutes it will serve Windows Updates to any machines I configure to update from here
[18:36:13] <Bytram> BACON?
[18:36:12] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Internet Shutdowns by Governments Have ‘Proliferated at a Truly Alarming Pace’ - https://sylnt.us - stifle-opposition-quash-free-speech-and-muzzle-expression
[18:36:08] <MasteroftheUniverse> assigning server roles now, including WSUS
[18:35:53] <requerdanos> Out of curiosity, what does server 2022 serve?
[18:35:29] <MasteroftheUniverse> I don't see all the Microsoft spying crap embedded into Win8 or Win10/11
[18:34:59] <MasteroftheUniverse> It pretty much feels like any other Windows prior to Windows 8
[18:34:36] <MasteroftheUniverse> Huh - Server 2022 FINALLY let me into the desktop
[18:33:40] <Bytram> just posted the link; not germane to the site, but I suspected somebody else would like to know. Sorry to be the bearer of sad news!

[18:08:30] <Runaway1956> He was a part of my morning for years
[18:08:14] <Runaway1956> Oh - I completely missed the Willard Scott story Bytram
[17:04:54] <Bytram> LOL!
[17:04:46] <Runaway1956> The source of those groceries will come out in conversation soon
[17:04:25] <Runaway1956> Well, I've been Dad for quite a long while now - and I've found that the fastest way to get information is to just act like nothing strange has happened
[17:03:07] -!- AzumaHazuki [AzumaHazuki!~hazuki@the.end.of.time] has joined #soylent
[17:02:59] <Bytram> left no sign indicating their plans? I suspect they may do things differently the next time. If it was, indeed, them. ;)
[17:01:13] <Runaway1956> so all they had to do was grab 4 bags from the closet, and start filling them
[17:00:53] <Runaway1956> Oh, they were in bags, but that's no stretch, because Dear Wife saves her shopping bags to use for trash bags and whatnot
[16:58:37] <Bytram> Were they just sitting loose or in bags? (That might be a sign)
[16:57:58] <Bytram> LOL!!!
[16:52:11] <Runaway1956> I'll probably get in trouble for putting it all away, I'll find out later that those were my own groceries that they were robbing for a camping trip or something
[16:50:56] <Runaway1956> It appears that one of the boys bought a bunch of stuff
[16:50:37] <Runaway1956> Huh. I walk into the kitchen to pour a cup, and there are sacks of groceries on the counter
[16:47:43] <Bytram> Hypothesize, Test, Learn... repeat!
[16:46:33] <Bytram> aka Trial and Error!
[16:46:02] <SedBot> <janrinok> lol - it's how lots of us learned, but we prefer not to have to admit it...
[16:46:01] <janrinok> s/lots of/lots of us/
[16:45:44] <janrinok> lol - it's how lots of learned, but we prefer not to have to admit it...
[16:44:59] <Bytram> Quite frankly, it's how I learned a LOT of programming!
[16:44:35] <Bender> karma - coffee: 5586
[16:44:35] <Runaway1956> coffee++ I'm not even awake yet
[16:44:29] <Bytram> ;)
[16:44:11] <Bytram> Ready! Shoot! Aim!
[16:44:09] <janrinok> there is nothing worse than being ignored by your own computer.....
[16:43:26] <Runaway1956> It's looking like I'll delete this machine, and start all over, AFTER reading some more guides on how to do it.
[16:42:56] <systemd> ^ 03Willard Scott, longtime weatherman for 'Today,' dies at 87 ( https://www.cnn.com )
[16:42:54] <Bytram> https://www.cnn.com
[16:42:53] <Runaway1956> Well then - Server 2022 finished installing itself. So, I feed it a password for admin account, then try to log in. So far, it's been about 10 minutes, waiting for user profile service to give me access.

[08:57:48] <Runaway1956> if not I'll start over
[08:57:41] <Runaway1956> Mehhh - I'm gonna take a nap, and see if it's done when I wake up
[08:57:22] <janrinok> oh, windows won't like that. How can they steal your data if you encrypt the drive when it is not in use?!
[08:56:15] <Runaway1956> In encrypted the drive - the guide I found didn't
[08:56:00] <Runaway1956> A quick search tells me that I should choose VHD as the disk type - and I chose VDI -

[08:53:30] <Runaway1956> Oh-oh - you'er getting into racissssss territory with jiggabytes
[08:53:15] <janrinok> Well, I've still got some working 5 1/4" floppy drives here but I would have to dust them off to use them.
[08:52:24] <chromas> 1.21 jiggabytes
[08:51:59] * Runaway1956 can probably locate some hard disks smaller than a gig
[08:50:52] <Runaway1956> Nahhh, don't have any spare physical machines sitting around
[08:50:37] <janrinok> Sorry, that is 'Recommended Size' - I still own some hard drives that are smaller than that
[08:50:36] <chromas> Consooming
[08:49:42] <janrinok> Damn, WinServer 2022 needs 60Gb minimum for an installation! What the hell is it doing with all of that disk space?
[08:46:04] <janrinok> doesn't matter if it runs like molasses, it will still provide useful info
[08:44:41] <janrinok> have you not got a spare box that you can try a clean install on? That way you will at least know whether it is a VM config setting that is wrong, or whether the server OS is looking for something in particular.
[08:41:57] <janrinok> lol
[08:41:51] <Runaway1956> Touche, janrinok
[08:41:05] <janrinok> he has just downloaded Windows Server 2022 to 'see what he can do with it", and the answer appears to be 'not very much'...
[08:39:37] <chromas> don't need to restart it after changing the network settings?
[08:37:09] <Runaway1956> I'll come back to this tomorrow, and see if it's cooked long enough.
[08:36:38] <Runaway1956> On second thought, maybe it's alright with Linux, as long as Linux is running Systemd?
[08:35:52] <Runaway1956> Virtual machine is OK if not run by Linux
[08:35:42] <Runaway1956> It's possible that it doesn't want to install on a Linux machine.
[08:34:40] <chromas> ah
[08:34:35] <Runaway1956> I don't need a server, I just downloaded Windows Server 2022 to see what I can do with it
[08:34:26] <chromas> I might set up a windows box forlocal ip cam dvr
[08:34:11] <Runaway1956> For fun and entertainment
[08:33:58] <chromas> What's the server for?
[08:33:13] <SedBot> <Runaway1956> Looking at the back of the machine, there's a line of pissants, each carrying two bits of data into the server.
[08:33:13] <Runaway1956> s/like/line/
[08:32:50] <Runaway1956> Looking at the back of the machine, there's a like of pissants, each carrying two bits of data into the server.
[08:31:57] <Runaway1956> Ahhhh, there it is, in network settings. I shouldn't have clicked the "sneakernet" option.
[08:31:27] <Runaway1956> Maybe I configured the VM wrong?
[08:30:45] <Runaway1956> Ya know - I haven't installed very many Windows Servers, but I'm thinking that after 3 hours, it should have progressed beyond "getting files ready for installation".

[02:17:04] <halibut> (Correction: This is modified from an example in the GNU sed info page, not man page.)
[02:15:17] <halibut> Just my two cents worth ... also I could not resist such a horrific-looking line consisting mostly of punctuation that actually does something.
[02:14:28] halibut_ is now known as halibut
[02:14:24] <halibut_> These have the added benefit of assembling the entire line even if the pattern occurs on the second or third line of a group of backslash-terminated lines.
[02:13:59] <halibut_> (Replace ``pattern'' in the first one with the desired pattern, and replace ``print'' in the second one with the desired pattern.)
[02:13:20] <halibut_> sed -ne ':s;$!{/\\$/{N;bs}};s/\\\n//g;/print/p;'
[02:13:12] <halibut_> You can also recombine the lines with this modification:
[02:12:55] <halibut_> sed -ne ':s;$!{/\\$/{s/\\\n$//;N;bs}};/pattern/p;'
[02:12:33] <halibut_> FatPhil: I know I am really late to the party, but I wanted to try submitting a sed command. This is modified from an example in the GNU sed man page (probably GNU sed specific):
[02:12:06] <halibut_> boru: Neat sed command earlier. However, I notice it fails on empty lines and when the pattern is on lines that are not terminated with a backslash.
