02:02.09Georgeheh
02:02.17Georgewill you be on IRC?
02:02.21wethrinOtherwise we'll pour beer on it :-P
02:02.23wethrinNo
02:02.33wethrinAs you may have noticed, I've been off IRC quite a bit
02:02.34Georgeif you pour beer on my thinkpad I'll ... give you lyposuction
02:02.45Georgefatso
02:02.50wethrinWoohoo!
02:02.57Georgeanyway
02:03.00GeorgeI need to go feast
02:09.44pawelwhat do you guys use for backup?
02:10.01Georgeback
02:10.03Georgepawel: raid
02:10.52pawelI'm currently trying duplicity, however. I'm not entirely happy with, so I could switch to something else.
02:10.58pawelGeorge: rm -rf /
02:11.05pawelGeorge: how about it?
02:11.07Georgepawel: I'm not a moron
02:11.30Georgewethrin: no comments allowed
02:11.49pawelGeorge: but what if someone breaks? or you loose both etc?
02:12.03Georgepawel: then I cry
02:12.06pawelGeorge: sad.
02:12.37pawelGeorge: I'm looking for something to prevent tears.
02:13.02Georgepawel: so are most girls
02:13.04Georgeanyway
02:13.16wethrinraid is not a backup
02:13.25pawelGeorge: are you calling me a lady? ;>
02:13.26Georgetime for more yes minister
02:13.30wethringood plan
02:13.41wethrinpawel: I've heard things about Bacula
02:13.53GeorgeI've heard things about wethrin
02:14.01wethrinsome may be true
02:14.04Georgeapparently wethrin is very good at memorising binary sequences
02:14.12wethrin:)
02:14.25pawelwethrin: rather something from your own experience.
02:14.34Georgehe even has an rs-232 connection in his rear end
02:14.51wethrinpawel: tar
02:15.15pawelwethrin: boring.
02:15.15Georgeyes, let us not forget what tar stands for
02:15.18pawelwethrin: :>
02:16.05wethrinpawel: Yes, but it works
02:16.53Georgeunlike wethrin
02:17.05Georgewho occassionally gets a 1 in the wrong place
02:17.08Georgeannoying git
02:17.22wethrinthat1's not tru1e
02:17.25pawelwethrin: that is what I used to do, write scripts myself. but it becomes quite annoying when you have few more machines with diffrent requirements. I am sure that you can workaround it.
02:17.43wethrinTivoli Storage Manager :)
02:17.45Georgerm -rf wethrin
02:18.07Georgeuse a hard disk and rsync
02:18.16pawelwethrin: now you are going too far. ;>
02:18.33Georgepawel: you have a very right-angled chin
02:18.41wethrinrsync would work, yes
02:18.54Georgeunlike wethrin
02:18.57Georgewho hasn't worked in his life

02:20.21pawelGeorge: you do not know me.
02:20.36Georgepawel: you still have a very right-angled chin
02:22.18pawelGeorge: there is much more, more then you could presumably imagine.

16:31.51LeedsHKI had better on O2 for a few months - but that's because they forgot to meter it
16:32.02Georgehahaha
16:32.31Georgethis is on pay as you go though

16:53.19Georgerhowe: cafe tpt?
16:53.55rhoweGeorge: It's on Wardour Street
16:54.15rhoweGeorge: It has exceptionally impolite staff, but does nice food and desserts

16:55.11Georgeare you talking about the phone shop?
16:56.31rhoweYes
16:57.18rhoweIf you stand at Cafe TPT, there's a road in front of you and slightly to the right which takes you to Leicester Square tube
16:57.33rhoweThe phone shop is down there and on the left, before the Chinese supermarket
16:59.13rhoweif that's not the one, there's another on Gerard street, and another just a few doors down from Cafe TPT on the Shaftesbury avenue side
16:59.56Georgeit's near a place called won kee
