| 13:21.13 | SlayerXP | yes? |

| 13:31.24 | morsing | Check it! |
| 13:32.32 | George | the royal mail has FAILED ME! |
| 13:33.06 | SlayerXP | morsing: that's truely awful perl for several reasons |
| 13:33.46 | morsing | SlayerXP: I'm glad to hear |
| 13:33.56 | morsing | SlayerXP: Why? |
| 13:35.10 | SlayerXP | well, basically you say "dear bash, please execute this perl." then perl says "dear bash, please execute this shell" |
| 13:35.24 | SlayerXP | plus you seem to have postfix installed |
| 13:37.49 | morsing | SlayerXP: That method is used by Nagios modules which is what I'm editing/writing |
| 13:37.58 | morsing | SlayerXP: Tell the Nagios people |
| 13:38.18 | morsing | SlayerXP: It's because of Perls limitations that they do it that way |
| 13:46.40 | murb | morsing: or limitations in their perl ability? |
| 13:46.41 | morsing | SlayerXP? |
| 13:46.59 | morsing | murb: Give a better suggestion then |
| 13:48.56 | murb | no, i'm busy trying to work. |

| 13:51.44 | morsing | murb: You just don't know... |
| 13:53.29 | rhowe | http://bash.org/?605550 |
| 13:53.42 | eye69 | It's scary that there are so many mailservers that don't report a correct HELO. |
| 13:54.21 | murb | eye69: there are good reasons for it being incorrect. |
| 13:54.25 | murb | atleast the hostname. |
| 13:54.41 | murb | i certainly don't try and valid date it as i'd drop lots of legitimate email. |
| 13:54.53 | murb | actually i think people who claim to be me get a 30 second delay. |
| 13:58.19 | Erwin | greylisting is pretty effective apparently -- temporarily denying unknown hosts for a few minutes; bulk mailers never try to resend |
| 13:58.44 | morsing | Erwin: I just deny unknown hosts |
| 13:58.51 | morsing | Very efficient |
| 14:01.21 | murb | Erwin: but it fails to scale. |
| 14:05.34 | Cope | mmm pizza |
| 14:08.39 | rhowe | It is also inevitable that it will be rendered ineffective |
| 14:08.55 | rhowe | If greylisting became widely deployed, the spammers would just start retrying connections |

| 14:35.15 | rhowe | Their packaged release is broken |
| 14:35.29 | rhowe | or at least incomplete |
| 14:35.38 | SlayerXP | i still fail to see why you're compiling glibc |
| 14:35.50 | rhowe | It's part of the build process |
| 14:36.28 | rhowe | OK, the answer is not to use gcc 4.x to compile glibc 2.3.x |

| 19:59.33 | Cope | \O/ |
| 19:59.34 | angelchild | this CD is quite possibly the most relaxing I've ever listened to |
| 19:59.36 | angelchild | \o/ |
| 19:59.40 | angelchild | <o/ \o> \\o o// |
| 19:59.41 | angelchild | 4*\o/12* 4*\o/12* 4*\o/12* 4*\o/12* 4*\o/12* 4*\o/12* 4*\o/12* 4*\o/12* 4*\o/12* 4*\o/12* 4*\o/12* 4*\o/12* |
| 19:59.45 | angelchild | etc |
| 20:00.36 | angelchild | :( |
| 20:01.35 | Cope | oooh! |
| 20:01.38 | Cope | more arguing! |
| 20:01.39 | Cope | :( |
| 20:02.02 | angelchild | :< |
| 20:02.04 | angelchild | what about? |
| 20:02.46 | Cope | unsure |
| 20:02.50 | Cope | mummy and sister :( |
| 20:02.53 | angelchild | oh :o |
| 20:03.12 | angelchild | play some relaxing music, they do that outside the Co-ops here to "calm the chavs down" |
| 20:04.55 | Cope | shouting over |
| 20:04.56 | Erwin | Classical musical has been sucessfully used in such a case to make young kids stop lingering in front of the supermarkets. |
| 20:12.00 | Erwin | Begging for mercy? |
| 20:13.41 | Cope | lol |
| 20:14.46 | Cope | sups |
| 20:14.47 | Cope | brb |
| 22:07.13 | Erwin | Looks like someone did get that jackpot. Why is the Camelot site so slow? :-) |
| 22:13.26 | murb | was it me? |
| 22:14.39 | Erwin | I was wrong, the next week's is 125 mil |
| 22:15.41 | murb | how much does a ticket cost? |
| 22:16.03 | murb | and how many tickets do i need to buy to win? |
| 22:19.38 | Erwin | I think there are 5 1-50 numbers and 2 1-10 numbers, so that's 31 billion tickets |
| 22:21.01 | Cope | Erwin: what do you recommend for getting python to talk to oracle? |
| 22:21.08 | Cope | Erwin: I've read about cx_Oracle |
| 22:21.27 | Cope | Erwin: but I'd rather not have to get '3rd party' stuff |
| 22:21.33 | murb | Erwin: oh that is silly numbers. |
| 22:21.42 | murb | i'm not buying a ticket with those odds. |
| 22:21.45 | Cope | lol |
| 22:23.28 | Erwin | Cope: There are no built-in SQL DB modules -- I only use PG |
| 22:23.51 | Cope | Erwin: what's PG? |
| 22:23.57 | Cope | oh |
| 22:23.58 | Cope | sorry |
| 22:24.00 | Erwin | Postgresql :) |
| 22:24.00 | Cope | sure |
| 22:24.05 | Cope | yeah - was being slow |
| 22:24.26 | Cope | Erwin: what do you use to talk sqlish to you db? |
| 22:25.03 | Erwin | There also seems to be a DCOracle2. I don't know the difference between them -- there's a more or less standard API DB modules have to follow, so you have the same concept of connecting, getting a cursor, doing a query and fetching the results |
| 22:25.08 | Erwin | For Postgresql, I use psycopg 1.x |
