| 01:21.24 | Clyphox | :) |
| 01:23.22 | murb | push |
| 01:24.40 | Huhn | mhpf :( |
| 01:24.57 | Huhn | ppl who sponsored my website so far decided it was too much traffic :( |
| 01:25.17 | murb | Huhn: you mean they don't want to host it anymore? |
| 01:25.26 | Huhn | murb: correct |
| 01:25.47 | Huhn | murb: it was the Weinbrenners, so I didn't say it on the #huhnix channel |
| 01:26.14 | murb | oh, so it must be costing somthing... |
| 01:26.21 | Huhn | it seems so |
| 01:26.32 | murb | hmm, can you get any stats? |
| 01:26.38 | Huhn | it's ok that they don't want to host it anymore, but I need to find another solution |
| 01:26.47 | Huhn | tbh: I don't care |
| 01:26.58 | Huhn | I helped them with editing various texts for their websites |
| 01:26.58 | murb | you could save loads of bandwith if you used somthing like fotopic.net for the images |
| 01:27.15 | Huhn | it seems that they don't need my help anymore, deal over |
| 01:27.27 | Huhn | that's a nice way of saying thanks.. really |
| 01:27.58 | Huhn | the deal was: you write for us, edit texts, translate them into English, we host your webpage |
| 01:28.07 | Huhn | now that their texts are all written the deal is over |
| 01:28.10 | Huhn | *sigh* |
| 01:28.11 | murb | I'd say put it on klepto.pho.be, but that won't be there for long... |
| 01:28.48 | Huhn | thanks for offering, I just have to find a solution.. |
| 01:28.52 | murb | and you probably don't want it on the wrong end of an adsl link. |
| 01:29.12 | murb | Huhn: I'm sure i could put it on a work server and nobody will notice for ages :) |
| 01:29.51 | Huhn | no wrong deals :) |
| 01:30.15 | Huhn | I'll have to find sth, it's a few days left before they remove my stuff |
| 01:30.56 | Huhn | it's not a prob that they won't host it anymore if it costs too much, the way they told me is what upsets me |
| 01:31.19 | murb | what size is the content |
| 01:31.52 | Huhn | I cannot even ssh the machine anymore |
| 01:32.02 | murb | that is unfriendly |
| 01:32.25 | Huhn | yes, that's why I'm complaining |
| 01:33.49 | Huhn | it's no prob really when they tell me: remove your data -- fine, but deleting my account that I cannot backup the stuff is sth else :( |
| 01:34.05 | murb | do you have a backup? |
| 01:34.28 | Huhn | at home, yes |
| 01:34.59 | Huhn | ah, anyway, I shouldn't get upset, it's a cruel world |
| 01:36.46 | highbury | hey guys |

| 09:24.06 | dank_work | And our production Collaboration system went a bit titsup |
| 09:24.17 | dpash | I prefer the pancakes |
| 09:24.18 | dank_work | Ahh....but then they're not McMuffins :) |
| 09:24.35 | dpash | hmmm bland |
| 09:24.51 | dank_work | "What's the blandest thing on the menu?" |
| 09:24.54 | highbury | thas why I said "macmuffin" ;-) |
| 09:25.06 | dpash | dank_work: but highbury never said they were McMuffins |
| 09:25.10 | dank_work | Whee! Lots of virii on our server |
| 09:25.18 | dpash | dank_work: fillet-o-fish |
| 09:25.24 | dank_work | And it's still not doing backups because the tape drive isn't connected |
| 09:25.31 | dpash | dank_work: only the tartare sauce has any taste |
| 09:25.35 | dank_work | And it's been our main fileserver for about a week |
| 09:25.58 | dpash | backup? whats that?? |
| 09:26.13 | dank_work | Heh :) |
| 09:26.34 | dank_work | So I've never had a fillet-o-fish, and I never will |
| 09:26.46 | highbury | dank_work: you still got that little server room in the offices, with everything balanced on each other? |
| 09:27.07 | highbury | thank g*d they don't server Grits in the UK |
| 09:27.16 | dank_work | highbury: Oh yeah. |
| 09:27.20 | dank_work | With about 60 machines in there now |
| 09:27.21 | highbury | now Thats bland! |
| 09:27.26 | dank_work | (or maybe about 50) |
| 09:27.38 | dank_work | The room was originally designed for 6 |
| 09:27.49 | highbury | <sigh> |
| 09:27.53 | dank_work | Oh, and the last Dirk-box went last week :) |
| 09:27.57 | dank_work | (gate has been replaced) |
| 09:28.14 | highbury | did they get the air-conditioning up-rated? |
| 09:28.17 | dank_work | No. |
| 09:28.26 | highbury | did Dirk ever come back? |
| 09:28.28 | dank_work | There's still only one aircon unit that's running full-tilt |
| 09:28.32 | dank_work | I don't think so |
| 09:28.48 | dank_work | Well, actually, not quite full tilt. Sometimes it gets it down to 20C |
| 09:28.55 | dpash | highbury: try asking for a Quater Deluxe in McD's |
| 09:29.02 | dpash | it will be warm |
| 09:29.14 | dpash | it isn;t on the menu and they have to make it esp for you |
| 09:29.35 | highbury | what's a "Quater" ? |
| 09:29.40 | dpash | it is also the most expensive burger, so if you get a meal, you'll be giving them less profit |
| 09:29.46 | dpash | habad spelling? |
| 09:29.54 | highbury | :-) |
| 09:30.18 | dpash | quarter? |
| 09:30.30 | highbury | ok, I thought it was some sort of McDonald's Freemasonry Secret code |
| 09:30.50 | highbury | a variation on "Quaker" |
| 09:31.08 | dpash | now that is a scary tin foil hat thought |
| 09:31.30 | dpash | Quaker is a christian denomination |
| 09:31.37 | dpash | not a secret society |
| 09:32.41 | dpash | they believe that you don't need a huge church to worship their god |
| 09:32.42 | dpash | or any of the riches that other churches have |
| 09:42.37 | dank_work | Bah. I just got phoned by someone whose network is down. It's not our effin' problem! |
| 09:42.50 | dank_work | (they're on a remote, non-Causeway, site) |
| 09:44.12 | dpash | I got a phone call on Monday at 5:20 saying "does site A have PCAnywhere installed, cos I'm going there early tomorrow and I need to contact site B" |
| 09:44.54 | dank_work | The correct answer is: "It's 5.20. I don't care!" |
| 09:45.02 | dank_work | Or was this 5.20pm? |
| 09:45.37 | dpash | pm |
| 09:45.42 | dpash | even still the answer was feck off |
| 09:46.15 | dpash | how long must he have known about goting to site A? |
| 09:46.50 | dpash | a little warning would hae been nice |
| 09:47.13 | dpash | as it was my boss was near site A during the day |
| 09:47.45 | dank_work | Heh |

| 16:17.28 | dank_work | Did you know that the top cover of a hard drive can score the platter quite nicely? |
| 16:17.56 | Clyphox | platter? |
| 16:18.00 | new2unix | "score the platter"? |
| 16:18.02 | dank_work | Yes. |
| 16:18.05 | Clyphox | eh? |
| 16:18.09 | dank_work | The platter is where the data is stored. |
| 16:18.21 | Clyphox | and to score it is to? |
| 16:18.23 | dank_work | To score something, in the sense of to make a mark in it |
| 16:18.29 | Clyphox | Ahh.. |
| 16:18.54 | Clyphox | They have vacummes inside too.. |
| 16:18.59 | dank_work | No they don't |
| 16:19.09 | Clyphox | aparently they did.. |
| 16:19.22 | dank_work | Nah. Reduced pressure, maybe |
| 16:19.32 | dank_work | But, well, hard drives have breather holes |
| 16:19.42 | Clyphox | hehe |
| 16:20.03 | dank_work | So obviously they can't be in a vacuum |
| 16:20.11 | dank_work | Actually, then they can't be under low pressure either |
| 16:20.18 | dank_work | But they're very clean inside |
| 16:20.33 | Clyphox | (mirror) |
| 16:20.46 | new2unix | Are the internals of a 3.5" HDD any different to that of a 5" one? If not, why dont PC manufacturers use them instead? surely, it could decrease the size of a base unit considerably? |
| 16:21.00 | Clyphox | Cost.. |
| 16:21.10 | Clyphox | cost me 80 for a simple 20g |
| 16:21.23 | Clyphox | and a 20g is normally 30quid to me. |
| 16:21.33 | dank_work | new2unix: eh? |
| 16:21.39 | dank_work | a 5.25" drive? |
| 16:21.46 | new2unix | yeah. |
| 16:21.52 | dank_work | Is bigger, not smaller than a 3.5" drive |
| 16:21.56 | Clyphox | pedantic :P |
| 16:22.03 | dank_work | How can it decrease the size of a base unit? |
| 16:22.42 | dank_work | No. I just don't understand |
| 16:22.46 | new2unix | *drinking |
| 16:22.57 | dank_work | If something is bigger than another thing, how can it decrease the size? |
| 16:24.06 | Clyphox_work | He meant 2.5 |
| 16:24.10 | Clyphox_work | er 3.5 |
| 16:25.10 | new2unix | Ok. I mean, wouldnt it make desktops smaller if PC manufacturers used laptop HDD instead of what they use now? |
| 16:25.35 | dpash | my teacher soon stopped laughing when I told him to meausre one |
| 16:25.49 | dpash | new2unix: many of the mini ITX machines need 2.5" drives |
| 16:26.13 | Clyphox_work | really? |
| 16:26.46 | Clyphox_work | I thought they were mostly larger ide's |
| 16:27.05 | Clyphox_work | its all gonna change when ppl wake up to serial-ata :-) |
| 16:27.23 | new2unix | yeah. but why isnt it a standard amongst the manufacturers? |
| 16:27.51 | Clyphox_work | money |
| 16:27.57 | Clyphox_work | they don't care about quality.. only money |
| 16:28.17 | new2unix | i mean the usage f laptop parts. its not like these components havent been tried and tested in the wild. |
| 16:29.38 | Clyphox_work | its the cost.. they are expensive.. therefore will sell less |
| 16:31.43 | dank_work | Laptop drives are slower |
| 16:34.42 | Clyphox_work | and quite noisey I find too |
| 16:42.19 | dank_work | Not necessarily |
| 16:42.51 | dank_work | But the 3.5" drives tend to spin faster, which gives them faster seek times (and often transfer rates) |
| 16:43.09 | Clyphox_work | mine just klunks alot |
| 16:43.15 | dank_work | And you wouldn't get a smaller footprint PC if you used a laptop drive instead of a 3.5" one |
| 16:43.21 | dank_work | There's plenty of bigger components |
| 16:51.03 | new2unix_brb | but one could replace all those 'bigger' components for smaller ones, right? |
| 16:51.17 | dank_work | Not that easily |
| 16:51.23 | dank_work | Not much free space on a motherboard |
| 16:52.23 | new2unix_brb | Apart from the ability to easily upgrade the hardware on desktops, what other reasons make people prefer them to laptops? Oh and the price factor. |
| 16:52.55 | dank_work | Generally nicer keyabords? |
| 16:52.56 | new2unix_brb | I'm sure prices would go considerably down, if we all ditched our desktops for laptops. |
| 16:52.58 | dank_work | *keyboards |
| 16:53.03 | dank_work | (or at least, easily replaceable) |
| 16:53.16 | dank_work | Mice are much nicer than glidepads |
| 16:53.27 | dank_work | And nipple mice are just evil |
| 16:53.39 | new2unix_brb | so you think the *nice* factor is a huge one? |
| 16:53.53 | dank_work | I'm a bit picky about keyboards |
| 16:54.01 | dank_work | I'm not too keen on the one I'm currently typing on |
| 16:54.17 | dank_work | And larger size means better heat dissipation |
| 16:55.16 | new2unix_brb | but heat dissipation is only an issue on highend machines. Its hardly an issue with entry level machinery. |
| 16:56.00 | dank_work | You try playing one of the latest 3D games on a laptop, compared to a similar spec desktop |

| 22:12.56 | *** join/#gllug cupis (~paul@modem-1533.baboon.dialup.pol.co.uk) |
| 22:15.57 | Davilion | anybody know of any packages which need packaging for debian? |
| 22:16.10 | Davilion | i need to get myself another online project in the absence of an offline girlfriend |
| 22:16.30 | cupis | Davilion: http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp |
| 22:23.09 | Davilion | cupis: nice one |
| 22:24.06 | cupis | Davilion: there is plenty of non-packaging work that wants doing as well, if you are interested |
| 22:24.16 | Davilion | could be |
| 22:24.25 | Davilion | ive no idea how to make .debs yet but im working on it |
| 22:24.43 | cupis | Davilion: read as much as you can bear from http://www.debian.org/devel |
| 22:25.23 | cupis | including http://www.debian.org/devel/todo |
| 22:28.59 | cupis | Davilion: what sort of stuff are you likely to be interested in? And dare I ask about this new found free time? |
| 22:30.33 | Davilion | cupis: not sure, it just dawned on me today how much i like debian and it would be good to give something back so i guess the easiest way to start is by creating a package for sometihng i could use |
| 22:30.36 | Davilion | but im open to suggestions |
| 22:30.39 | Davilion | and i dont have any free time |
| 22:30.45 | Davilion | but thats sbecause i work when im bored |
| 22:30.49 | Davilion | so i want to do less work, more hobby |
| 22:31.30 | cupis | Davilion: well one of the best ways to start might be to look at any outstanding bugs/problems with the programs you know/use and try and help resolve those with the maintainer. |
| 22:31.45 | Davilion | not a bad idea. |
| 22:32.00 | cupis | That's a good way to work, improving on someone elses work and learning from them etc. |
| 22:32.26 | cupis | Then maybe take on packages of your own or help with other group efforts within Debian. |
| 22:34.40 | Davilion | cool. |
| 22:35.19 | cupis | and see if you can get dankolb to do the decent thing and ditch slack :) |
| 22:36.00 | dankolb | Oi |
| 22:36.10 | cupis | oh, hi there dan. |
| 22:36.19 | dankolb | sorry - on phone |
| 22:36.41 | cupis | no worries |

| 23:30.53 | Davilion | thanks |
| 23:31.00 | Davilion | it appears gcc3 wasnt the problem that time |
| 23:31.20 | qwertzz | spud: aight. thats good |

| 23:33.36 | dankolb | Bored |
| 23:33.39 | Davilion | nice |
| 23:34.04 | SpudUAway | Shirley you want to use a drill if you're bored? |
| 23:34.40 | Jenson | grrr, I thought I'd lost my screwdrivers, but they'd hidden under the MS Office CD my dad insisted I install as he pointblank refused to use Linux after I left Win in a half dead state |
| 23:35.08 | dankolb | heh |
| 23:35.19 | dankolb | Well, I took a screwdriver to it first |
| 23:35.33 | SpudUAway | Screwdrivers also offer good scratching potential, especially against Office CDs. |
| 23:35.38 | Davilion | yes |
| 23:35.44 | stephen | tbh, it's not worth trying to convert your parents, just get them to get you a machine of your own |
| 23:35.47 | Davilion | but what you really want to do is open the disk up, spin it up, and throw things at it |
| 23:36.04 | Jenson | stephen: I have one, but no internet or printer, so I took over theirs |
| 23:36.12 | dankolb | The top lid of a hard drive makes very good scores on a drive platter |
| 23:36.21 | Jenson | I have 3 actually |
| 23:36.25 | Jenson | Well 2 and a half |
| 23:36.29 | Jenson | But only one works |
| 23:36.54 | stephen | Jenson: yeah, I installed my own network and fscked around with samba and some java proxy server for about a year and a half |
