10:39.26 | morsing | MMm... music |
10:39.51 | morsing | That reminds me... |
10:39.56 | kbsingh | I've now started recognising fellow commuters |
10:40.28 | kbsingh | specially this very lovely looking girl in a z3 |
10:40.41 | morsing | When I originally ripped a CD with ripit, it used lame to convert to mp3. This work fine on my car stereo |
10:41.16 | morsing | I can't get it to do this anymore and if I run lame manually it converts to a different mp3 format that the player can't understand |
10:41.21 | morsing | What has happened? |
10:41.29 | morsing | I can't find any options on lame for this |
10:42.40 | morsing | Hello? |
10:42.50 | kbsingh | odd. vbr / cbr issue ? or does the stereo need a specific bitrate ? |
10:43.42 | morsing | kbsingh, no, but when I hover over the new mp3s in Konquerer it says the new ones are MPEG 1.0 v II where the olds one don't say anything |
10:43.52 | morsing | 'file' can't tell the difference though |
10:44.05 | morsing | kbsingh: bitrate is 128 on both types |
10:44.10 | Leeds | they are mp2 rather than mp3? |
10:44.17 | morsing | Are they? |
10:44.27 | morsing | So why can't lame create mp3 anymore? |
10:44.39 | Leeds | I don't know - that's what the ? sign on the end of my sentence meant |
10:45.02 | morsing | Leeds: Your sentence should have been "Are they mp2 rather than mp3?" |
10:45.34 | Leeds | nope |
10:45.37 | morsing | Yes |
10:45.43 | morsing | That wasn't correct english |
10:45.50 | morsing | Is this what HK does to you? |
10:47.28 | Leeds | aye |
10:47.35 | Leeds | it was rhetorical English |
10:48.29 | morsing | Leeds: What did your teacher tell you about using rhetorical english in writing? |
10:48.45 | Leeds | I wasn't asking a factual question, I was suggesting a possible answer to the original question, in the form of a rhetorical question |
10:49.02 | Leeds | I consider IRC to be spoken, not written |
10:49.22 | Leeds | or better, to be a hybrid |

10:50.21 | kbsingh | try that |
10:51.44 | kbsingh | in LAME version 3.96.1, I've just done a 'lame infile.wav infile.mp3' and its given me a mp3 file, not a mp2 |
10:53.21 | morsing | kbsingh: Thanks |
10:53.47 | Leeds | morsing: it's fixed? |
10:55.09 | morsing | Leeds: No - I was only thanking for the suggestion |
10:55.47 | Leeds | morsing: you should be more precise in your speech, perhaps? |
10:56.39 | morsing | Leeds: :-) |

10:56.57 | Leeds | I should stop this now, maybe? |

10:57.38 | morsing | Leeds: A more serious question: How are you coping in HK? |
10:57.49 | Leeds | what sort of coping? |
10:58.19 | morsing | Well, being far away from home, living there, working there... |
10:58.40 | morsing | Trying to not get depresed |
10:58.40 | SlayerXP | being far away from home is the main reason I'm in norway |

14:55.10 | morsing | 14:31 < JonathanD> I wanna run aix on my coffeepot, can someone help me? |
14:56.27 | morsing | What does htis mean in terms of mp2 or mp3: |
14:56.28 | morsing | 01 About A Girl.mp3: mp3 file with ID3 2.0 tag |
14:57.59 | Erwin | What part? There are two standards for ID3 tags which contains stuff like artist name/ album/ genre |
14:58.51 | morsing | Well, does that look like mp2 or mp3? |
14:58.59 | morsing | What's ID3 2.0 tag |
14:59.17 | Erwin | It's mp3, since it says mp3 file |
14:59.57 | kbsingh | morsing, why not play it with mpg321 ? that will give you details, if not initially - then with a -v it would |
15:01.04 | Erwin | Anyone using an NFS client under Windows? |
15:03.33 | SlayerXP | Erwin: some poor tortured souls are, I'm sure. |
15:04.46 | Erwin | I'm thinking of exporting part of my application dataspace as an NFS share. I'd like to do it with WebDav, but that's limited to Office files apparently, the editor that my users use doesn't support WebDav |
15:06.38 | morsing | Erwin: It's fool me before. I don't think 'file' can tell the difference |
15:07.17 | Erwin | Well, it has a comprehensive database |
15:08.11 | morsing | kbsingh: mpg123 just throws an error about the sound devcie |
15:10.08 | morsing | kbsingh: Ahh... I think you meant -t |
15:10.09 | morsing | MPEG 1.0 layer III, 128 kbit/s, 44100 Hz joint-stereo |
15:10.36 | morsing | So that's mp3 then! |
16:26.51 | morsing | O dodm'y leave? |
16:28.48 | kbsingh | morsing, cool |
16:29.06 | morsing | Eh? |
16:32.32 | kbsingh | w.r.t mp3 being an mp3 |
16:44.53 | morsing | Is there a SQL command that will get me the total space used by a node in TSM? |
16:58.58 | morsing | Cope? |
17:22.56 | morsing | Qmail sucks! |
17:23.05 | morsing | We just found out what the problem is!!! |
17:24.34 | morsing | When it sends mail it launches up to #concurrentoutbound connections to deliver one mail each |
17:24.59 | morsing | BUT it then won't send more until all these connections have died down |
17:25.08 | kbsingh | yes, i agree. qmail sucks |
17:25.12 | morsing | and it then launches another #concurrentoutbound connections |
17:25.28 | morsing | How stupid is that? |
17:25.31 | kbsingh | wait |
17:25.57 | kbsingh | you mean it starts (eg) 15, and if one of them blocks for 20 seconds, even with other 14 down, it wont initiate any more ? |
17:26.32 | morsing | kbsingh: Exactly! |
17:26.42 | kbsingh | genius! |
17:26.48 | kbsingh | djb strikes again! |
17:26.49 | morsing | That's why we see queues of 200.000 emails! |
17:28.28 | morsing | Well, I've gotta go! |
17:29.45 | SlayerXP | qmail belongs in the pile of software that contains sendmail, mysql, php and all RPM based distros |
17:30.05 | SlayerXP | the pile marked "Fun for a while, but we've grown up now, sorry" |
17:31.16 | kbsingh | you mean the pile started by brain dead pkg managers like apt ? |
17:31.38 | SlayerXP | oh, and CVS |
17:31.50 | kbsingh | oh yes, cvs. yes. onto same pile |
17:32.19 | SlayerXP | and enlightenment |
17:32.53 | kbsingh | havent used that in a while- last time i saw it, way too much eye candy |
17:40.15 | George | that's my first pure maths module for further maths done |

21:55.40 | wethrin | Great Scott! |
21:55.52 | Cope | it was next to Great Queen Street |
21:56.14 | Cope | wethrin: send my watch! |
21:56.37 | wethrin | Cope: I'm doing a batch sending of stuff on Friday |
22:07.44 | George | sausages! |
22:09.24 | wethrin | I'm not sending sossidges! |
22:22.10 | George | :D |
22:23.30 | wethrin | I have venison sasuages in the freezer, though |
22:28.34 | George | :D |
22:28.42 | wethrin | They're verrah tasty when cooked |
22:29.14 | George | hrmm |
22:29.47 | wethrin | They're a bit crunchy when frozen |
22:30.21 | George | hrmmm |
22:30.28 | Cope | something very fishy going on with my machine |
22:30.36 | wethrin | a haddock? |
22:31.00 | Cope | I can't su to root, or log in, or spawn another screen session |
22:31.13 | Cope | only log I see is indicating can't stat /var/log/lastlog |
22:31.26 | Cope | but since I can't become root, I can't touch it |
22:31.31 | wethrin | hrm |
22:31.33 | wethrin | disk space? |
22:31.39 | Cope | this reminds me of auditd problems, when /var gets too big |
22:31.45 | Cope | but I have 3G of space |
22:31.50 | wethrin | should be plenty |
22:31.53 | Cope | indeed |
22:32.34 | Cope | nothing is chewing resources |
22:32.53 | Cope | it just looks like a process which needs to log can't log, and therefore gets stuck |
22:32.57 | wethrin | reboot? |
22:33.04 | Cope | did that 2 hours ago |
22:33.23 | Cope | and I could log in... now i can't |
22:33.31 | wethrin | hrmm |
22:33.35 | wethrin | Permissions? |
22:33.43 | Cope | nothing's changed |
22:33.51 | Cope | i've not done anything |
22:34.25 | wethrin | omg d00d. y00v b33n h4xxx0r3d!!!!11!! |
22:34.29 | Cope | lol |
22:36.14 | SlayerXP | Cope: sounds like the admin needs a LART |
22:36.56 | Cope | hmm |
22:37.20 | Cope | can't see how lastlog would just vanish |
22:37.25 | Cope | unless some twat deleted it |
22:37.28 | George | I need to actually do some work at some point |
22:37.58 | wethrin | Cope: Blame George |
22:38.02 | George | :( |
22:38.10 | George | but but but I'm special |
22:38.16 | wethrin | indeed |
22:38.30 | George | and perfect |
22:38.45 | wethrin | Look what you've made him do |
22:40.53 | George | ? |
22:41.06 | wethrin | He went off |
22:41.34 | George | awww |
22:41.37 | George | but I'm perfect |
22:41.38 | George | in every way |
22:41.45 | George | I'm more perfect than Mary Poppins |
22:42.56 | wethrin | Do you sing as well? |

22:44.21 | wethrin | oh dear |
