| 12:39.16 | jcookeman | dick_turpin: I read that yesterday |
| 12:40.09 | jcookeman | I am really curious about their line that sais something like, "we believe IT administrators should be given the power to decide what website access is appropriate for their company. |
| 12:40.19 | jcookeman | sounds very wrong to me |
| 12:42.53 | z00dax | not always |
| 12:43.10 | z00dax | IT admin needs to have a say in matters, perhaps not be the deciding force |
| 12:43.31 | dick_turpin | jcookeman: Depends what side of the fence you sit on, Management or Worker |
| 12:43.36 | z00dax | specially since they are the guys who are going to get asked (told ?) to enforce policy |
| 12:43.55 | jcookeman | IT should never set policy on things like that. Never! |
| 12:45.07 | morsing | ~seen annec |
| 12:45.10 | ibot | annec <n=AnneC@cmarfw01.marlow.spinvox.com> was last seen on IRC in channel #gllug, 22h 4m 46s ago, saying: 'that's a bit... hmmm...'. |
| 12:45.51 | jcookeman | ibot class! |
| 12:45.52 | ibot | methinks class is over |
| 12:46.00 | tripitaka | IT should be able to say 'no access to warez and known virus distributing sites' |
| 12:47.06 | tripitaka | hardly a management/HR issue |
| 12:47.11 | dick_turpin | Thats the point its a "Covering our arses" policy if its blocked it cant infect |
| 12:48.00 | jcookeman | tripitaka: IT does not set policy on what is accessible. yes, they normally are delegated things like malware, etc. But, IT should never has any power to say Facebook is off limits. |
| 12:48.38 | tripitaka | jcookeman: However, they must be able to say that cracks.am is off limits |
| 12:48.58 | dick_turpin | SOPHOS (We/I am a reseller for them) are going down the path of denying every thing to standard workers |
| 12:49.00 | jcookeman | not really |
| 12:49.08 | jcookeman | only if policy dictates |
| 12:50.18 | dick_turpin | If you're Management then you take the view that office equipment is for company benefit not the workers, e.g. "You don't come here to play but to work" |
| 12:50.20 | tripitaka | it's an IT driven policy element. HR might not care about cracks.am, but I happen to know that if someone downloads from there, they will be delivering a virus into my perimeter |
| 12:50.59 | tripitaka | it could be for a perceived valid business reason, 'I don't have the serial to hand but I need the app working now' |
| 12:51.43 | tripitaka | in an ideal world policy and enforcement would be entirely separate, but there's usually some overlap |

| 12:57.05 | morsing | Why would you want to do that? |
| 12:57.13 | jcookeman | doesnt wget clobber automatically? |
| 12:57.23 | tripitaka | my fault for running a script which consisted of more than two lines |
| 12:57.29 | morsing | jcookeman: They should re-write it then |
| 12:57.55 | jcookeman | because there is an explicit no-clobber option in wget |
| 12:58.02 | jcookeman | so that would imply it clobbers by default |
| 12:58.41 | tripitaka | it clobbers with -r. I was calling wget, then zip, and zip was nonclobbering. |

| 13:54.35 | z00dax | awesome food season! |
| 13:54.50 | z00dax | not being muslim also means that I dont need to starve all day to get at it :) |
| 13:55.39 | z00dax | i think thats the best thing about being Sikh, there are no real rules in religious terms, but you get all the benefits from everywhere and there is still that whole spiritual angle for those who really need something / someone to blame |
| 13:56.45 | Armand | best thing about not being religious, is erm... not being religious. :) |
| 13:57.07 | boudiccas | goibhniu; what makes you think that i'm muslim? |
| 13:57.34 | boudiccas | :) |
| 13:57.37 | dick_turpin | boudiccas: Cant be she likes her sausage too much |
| 13:57.44 | boudiccas | thats true |
| 13:57.55 | boudiccas | sossidges are the food of the gods |
| 13:58.23 | Armand | hardly... |
| 13:58.29 | sabinef72 | please don't speak about food.... I'm always hungry ! |
| 13:58.30 | Armand | Haggis, FTW! |
| 13:58.31 | Armand | :) |
| 13:58.42 | boudiccas | i like haggis, thats good too |
| 13:59.00 | boudiccas | i also like liver, dislike kidneys but never tried tripe |
| 13:59.01 | Armand | you know it. |
| 13:59.07 | Armand | 1 sec.. |
| 13:59.13 | boudiccas | times up |
| 13:59.24 | goibhniu | boudiccas: I didn't ... just wishing you the very best this festive season! |
| 13:59.35 | boudiccas | goibhniu; :) |
| 13:59.39 | Leeds | it's also rosh hashanah |
| 14:00.06 | boudiccas | Leeds; enlighten me, what is 'rosh hashanah' please? |
| 14:00.19 | goibhniu | and software freedom day is nigh! |
| 14:00.19 | Leeds | Jewish New Year |
| 14:00.25 | Armand | found it. :) |
| 14:00.33 | Armand | Dolmathes. :D |
| 14:00.36 | boudiccas | ah, right :) |
| 14:00.40 | Armand | Yummers! |
| 14:01.00 | boudiccas | dolmathes? what is that Armand ? |
| 14:01.37 | boudiccas | bbiam |
| 14:01.41 | Armand | it's minced meat (either beef of lamb) with rice & herbs. |
| 14:01.43 | goibhniu | z00dax: but aren't you limited romantically? |
| 14:01.49 | Armand | wrapped in vine leaves. |
| 14:03.08 | Armand | it's well nice, and relatively easy to make. :) |
| 14:03.14 | Armand | takes AGES though. |
| 14:03.27 | z00dax | goibhniu: not at all |
| 14:04.16 | goibhniu | the 2 sikh's I know are always complaining about how difficult it is |
| 14:05.00 | goibhniu | one expects his parents to find a partner for him |
| 14:05.03 | Leeds | goibhniu: maybe it's just them ;-) |
| 14:05.51 | goibhniu | maybe it's just z00dax is a lady killer |
| 14:06.15 | z00dax | goibhniu: if only i was |
| 14:06.26 | Leeds | speaking of which, an intensely geeky thought just crossed my mind... |
| 14:06.39 | z00dax | but parents looking for matches, is ore of a cultural thing rather than religious |
| 14:07.01 | z00dax | Leeds: do share |
| 14:08.06 | Leeds | asking someone out for dinner by creating a facebook event, making it private, and putting just her and me on the invite list :-) |
| 14:08.17 | antiphase | Is your phone not working? |
| 14:11.50 | morsing | Huh? |
| 14:15.46 | Leeds | z00dax: geeky enough for you? |
| 14:16.06 | z00dax | Leeds: absolutely |
| 14:16.35 | Leeds | ever tried it? ;-) |
| 14:16.39 | goibhniu | Leeds: if some hot female tried that with me ... I'd ignore her |
| 14:16.42 | z00dax | not yet, ubt i will today |
| 14:17.04 | clive-h | good afternoon |
| 14:17.28 | dick_turpin | clive-h: |
| 14:17.34 | Leeds | goibhniu: a) I certainly wouldn't... and b) I am talking about people I know - not random strangers |

| 14:18.00 | Armand | did my format on your Vista machine finish?? :D |
| 14:18.17 | clive-h | lol |
| 14:19.18 | clive-h | I shall install qnx when I can actually download it |
| 14:20.18 | Armand | ahhh.. I'm supposed to be DLing Fedora 8. O_O |
| 14:21.26 | dick_turpin | z00dax: Thanks for the invite, thats the day after my birthday when I will be 18, I doubt I'll be able to go but it was nice to be asked. Thanks |
| 14:21.27 | clive-h | I'll wait for the full release before I touch F8 |
| 14:21.50 | Armand | I got a torrent for the mini-cd version going. |
| 14:22.01 | Armand | my laptop is my main test bunneh. :) |

| 14:26.47 | z00dax | dick_turpin: one drink on me if you turn up |
| 14:26.49 | boudiccas | dick_turpin; you're not, gasps in horror, 66 are you???!!! |
| 14:27.36 | boudiccas | Armand; nope |
| 14:27.42 | dick_turpin | boudiccas: You are a very naughty girl and need to be..... Oh crap I'm still married |
| 14:27.45 | Armand | crapola |
| 14:28.29 | boudiccas | dick_turpin; i have the feeling of deja vue come over me when you say that |
| 14:28.33 | Armand | brb |
| 14:28.47 | dick_turpin | z00dax: Actually, thinking about it, 1.30pm, hm, train, Saturday, might be do-able I'll think about it |
| 14:28.47 | Leeds | boudiccas: you get strange men saying that sort of thing to you often? |
| 14:29.01 | boudiccas | some are stranger than others Leeds |
| 14:29.22 | dick_turpin | boudiccas: and some just get ignored |
| 14:29.28 | boudiccas | lol |

| 14:31.17 | z00dax | dick_turpin: we usually head to the pub after |
| 14:31.28 | morsing | It's floo's birthday |
| 14:32.08 | jcookeman | where we going? |
| 14:32.50 | dick_turpin | z00dax: How long does it usually go on for? |
| 14:33.14 | z00dax | some people have been known to hang around for a few hours after, so maybe 6 - 7pm |
| 14:33.40 | z00dax | also, people like wethrin might be thre long enough to go in for a curry after |
| 14:33.49 | z00dax | I would need to leave by 6:30 - 7:00pm |
| 14:33.59 | z00dax | jcookeman: gllug meeting |
| 14:34.57 | dick_turpin | z00dax: Its a bit of a trek from the Midlands but seeing as its a Saturday and in the day time I could get off my lazy butt |
| 14:35.12 | jcookeman | What about the gllug meeting? |
| 14:37.30 | z00dax | jcookeman: thats where we are going |

| 15:44.57 | Cope | gw280: how to index it |
| 15:45.08 | Cope | I can't seem to work out how it decides what it can see/launch |
| 15:45.28 | Cope | eg if I install "new program" sometimes it can see it, sometimes it can't |
| 15:45.34 | gw280 | Cope: no idea |
| 15:45.58 | Armand | YAY! my torrent is DLing at 42KB/s.. ¬_¬ |
| 15:46.36 | Leeds | hmm... I think I'm going to have to go to two parties on Saturday night, say no to the one I haven't technically been invited to (and which might be on Sunday anyway) and skip the rugby |
| 15:46.45 | gw280 | Cope: read the source? |
| 15:51.12 | goibhniu | Cope: does it just look for apps in the menu? |
| 15:51.28 | goibhniu | i.e. kicker menu |
| 16:04.45 | Leeds | and assuming an at least vaguely positive answer, if I can pull off "thanks - I guess I might ask you sometime then..." |
| 16:04.52 | [Clive] | Wouldn't it be better to say : would like to go out for dinner? |
| 16:05.04 | [Clive] | s/would/would you/ |
| 16:05.29 | Leeds | Armand: just for the record, do you know where I live? |
| 16:05.35 | Armand | nope.. |
| 16:05.44 | Leeds | [Clive]: possibly - but that would be far too straight and honest :-) |
| 16:05.51 | Leeds | Armand: well... China. |
| 16:05.56 | Armand | kewl. |
| 16:06.08 | [Clive] | do you not think she'd prefer straight and honest? |
| 16:06.10 | Leeds | they don't have Chinese food here - it's just called 'food' |
| 16:06.15 | Armand | I'll have the shrimp-fried rice & a prawn curry then. :D |
| 16:06.39 | Leeds | actually, to be more precise, they don't have Chinese food in the same way that nobody goes for 'European food' in the UK |
| 16:06.50 | Armand | lol |
| 16:06.55 | [Clive] | I shall have crispy duck and kung po king prawns later |
| 16:06.58 | Armand | although, not quite right. :) |
| 16:07.12 | boudiccas | Leeds has volunteered to take us out for a meal, providing we make our own way to his local resaurant or restaurant of his choice :))))) |
| 16:07.16 | [Clive] | England doesn't really have a cuisine anyway |
| 16:07.24 | Armand | as we do have frence, italian, greek, etc restaraunts. :) |
| 16:07.35 | jcookeman | clive: english breakfast |
| 16:07.38 | boudiccas | Armand; frence? |
| 16:07.38 | Armand | And, we do, so don't lie. |
| 16:07.45 | Armand | yeah. |
| 16:07.50 | [Clive] | full english? |
| 16:07.50 | Armand | loads of 'em. |
| 16:08.19 | Armand | Clive: Bacon, eggs, sausages, toast, beans, etc.. O_o |
| 16:08.22 | [Clive] | heart attack in a single meal |
| 16:08.26 | Armand | Yup. :D |
| 16:08.30 | Leeds | Armand: exactly my point - there are noodle places, dim sum places, sechuanese (sp?), shangainese, etc. etc. - what there isn't is 'Chinese food' |
| 16:09.01 | Armand | ofc, but over here it just gets dumps onto 1 menu. :P |
| 16:09.02 | [Clive] | gah I meant to buy bacon earlier |
| 16:09.14 | Armand | FKING WASP! |
| 16:09.16 | Armand | DIE! |
| 16:09.41 | Leeds | actually, probably not - any individual Chinese place in the UK is likely to serve a particular sort of Chinese food, but may not be advertised or described as such |
| 16:09.50 | Armand | damnit, escaped.. sorry about that. :P |
| 16:10.21 | Leeds | I hate bloody wasps - almost at a phobic level, I think |
| 16:10.29 | Armand | There are places that do sechuan, cantonese, etc.. but it's more common to find a "chinese" place. |
| 16:10.50 | Leeds | they will probably lean towards a particular style, I think |
| 16:10.56 | Leeds | not that I regularly went for Chinese in the UK anyway |
| 16:11.05 | Armand | Can't say I recommend it. :P |
| 16:11.06 | Leeds | I strongly suggest chemical warfare |
| 16:11.09 | Armand | lol |
| 16:11.13 | Armand | not in MY room. :) |
| 16:11.35 | [Clive] | i assume the local one does Peking style since it's called peking chef |
| 16:11.49 | Armand | mayhaps. :) |
| 16:11.50 | Leeds | boudiccas: for what it's worth - absolutely! If you happen to be in my neighbourhood, I'll be very happy to pay the couple of quid it would cost to take you to dinner :-) |
| 16:12.36 | boudiccas | Leeds; :) |
| 16:13.14 | Armand | damnit, why do I keep reading back and thinking "This laptop makes me type like a 'tard!" ?? |

| 16:14.12 | Armand | I can't stand laptop keyboards.. |
| 16:14.20 | Armand | they are all wrong. |
| 16:14.33 | [Clive] | I use a usb keyboard and trackball on mine |
| 16:15.02 | Leeds | I've been using a laptop as my primary home machine for over 3 years, and my primary work machine since I started my current job in May, and I'm actually quite used to them now |
| 16:15.05 | Armand | I really should setup my main PC. |
| 16:15.29 | Armand | I've been using the laptop for about 2 months now. |
| 16:15.40 | Armand | it's the first "proper" laptop I've had. |
| 16:15.57 | [Clive] | This laptop is as powerful as my desktop machine |
| 16:16.06 | Armand | damn you. :P |
| 16:16.23 | Armand | Mine is a P3M-1GHz, 256MB, 20GB, DVD.. |
| 16:16.26 | Leeds | "I intend this breast satirically" |
| 16:17.02 | [Clive] | Intel pentium dual core , 1gb memory, 80 gig disk, DVD+-RW |
| 16:17.03 | Armand | Main PC is a AthlonXP 2Ghz, 1GB, 160GB, DVD-RW, etc.. |
| 16:17.14 | Armand | noice. :) |
| 16:17.36 | [Clive] | The desktop is Athlon 64 x 2 , 1Gb, 120Gb disk |
| 16:17.43 | Armand | My main rig would be better, if I could get my hands on a sckt939 motherboard. |
| 16:17.51 | [Clive] | Both are 2 x 1.6Ghz |
| 16:18.13 | Leeds | this machine is Core Duo 1.66GHz, 1GB RAM, 100GB disk, DVD-RW, 1440x900 100dpi 14inch screen |
| 16:18.30 | Leeds | I really like the high-res screen |
| 16:18.33 | Armand | ok, ok.. stop making me jealous, you gits. :P |
| 16:19.37 | Leeds | bought it just over a year ago for under £450 with a couple of extras (big battery, spare charger) thrown in |
| 16:19.52 | Armand | not bad.. |
| 16:19.57 | Leeds | PC hardware is almost unbelievably cheap nowadays :-) |
| 16:20.08 | [Clive] | This cost 399 |
| 16:20.08 | Armand | mines ok, considering I got it for nothing. :) |
| 16:20.21 | Leeds | [Clive]: when? |
| 16:20.31 | Armand | so I beat you both on price. :D |
| 16:20.36 | [Clive] | jan/feb |
| 16:20.49 | Leeds | the one annoying thing about mine, the one thing I got wrong when I specced it, is that it doesn't have hardware virtualisation |
| 16:20.53 | [Clive] | These days 399 would get you Core 2 Duo |
| 16:21.05 | [Clive] | Yeah this doesn't do Vt-x |
| 16:21.26 | [Clive] | The laptop does AMD's virtualisation though |
| 16:21.45 | Leeds | I suppose I'll probably replace it early next year - unless I decide to go back to a desktop machine - which will obviously have VT |
| 16:22.02 | [Clive] | errrr s/laptop/desktopp/ |
| 16:22.09 | Armand | damnit with all these dual-core fripperies.. |
| 16:22.20 | Armand | my only SMP is a dual p2-400.. >:( |
| 16:22.37 | [Clive] | I have a p2-350 smp |
| 16:22.45 | Leeds | Armand: I had a dual P3-550 in about 2000 |
| 16:23.03 | Leeds | for that matter, I had a dual-486 test machine at work before that |
| 16:23.05 | Armand | i still use mine, as a RAID server. |
| 16:23.49 | Armand | drives are noisy though. |
| 16:24.12 | Armand | gotta mod it too, as the drives get *a bit* warm. :P |
| 16:24.26 | Leeds | I'm lucky - my flatmate is happy to have a server in the corner of the living room, as long as I download the odd series of things like CSI for her :-) |
| 16:24.33 | Armand | hehe |
| 16:24.50 | Leeds | anyway, should sleep, since it's Friday already |
| 16:25.06 | Armand | dang, it's 5:20 already. |
| 16:25.17 | [Clive] | I threw most of my pre-p3 kit out |
| 16:25.24 | Armand | shit, I was supposed to phone the college! |
| 16:26.12 | Armand | I threw out a shitload of hardware, anything pre-p2. |
| 16:26.23 | Armand | well, pre-PC100 anyways. |
| 16:26.41 | Armand | less than FSB100 = not worth 2 shits. :P |
| 16:27.45 | Leeds | one of the odd things about moving over here was leaving all my old kit behind - spares, emergency PCI graphics cards, etc. |
| 16:28.23 | Armand | I couldn't do that. |
| 16:28.36 | z00dax | is anyone in London interested in a Netra ? I have 5 spare that need a home |
| 16:28.55 | z00dax | is [Clive] == clive-h ? |
| 16:28.56 | Leeds | z00dax: and an ultra10? ;-) |
| 16:29.02 | [Clive] | What spc netra? |
| 16:29.08 | z00dax | Leeds: nope, i am keeping the ultra10 |
| 16:29.08 | [Clive] | spec |
| 16:29.15 | [Clive] | yes i'm clive-h |

| 16:29.37 | [Clive] | how much RAM? |
| 16:29.54 | [Clive] | Can I have one please? |
| 16:30.09 | Armand | If I knew what it was, I would probably be interested. :D |
| 16:30.12 | z00dax | ok, i shall hang onto one for you. does anyone else also want one ? if so - email and let me know |
| 16:30.33 | [Clive] | they're fairly funky |

| 17:53.26 | etorix | by m68k u mean a 68k mac with bsd on it? |
| 17:54.51 | goibhniu | yes ... if etorix knows .. someone owes me a bag of crisps ... a fancy bag ... toasted dolphin wing flavour |
| 17:56.03 | etorix | my 68k mac is scsi |
| 17:56.42 | Ch0Hag | hdd is IDE |
| 17:56.45 | Ch0Hag | Performa 630 |
| 17:57.25 | etorix | ah, ok, format it fat32, reformat it when u put it in the mac |
| 17:57.42 | Ch0Hag | Will a PC partition table work? |
| 17:57.51 | etorix | not for long |
| 17:58.16 | etorix | um, ok for data, yeah, it could |
| 17:58.19 | Ch0Hag | It wouldn't format it from linux w/ swap. |
| 17:58.42 | Ch0Hag | The only system I can get into is from a network install disc. |
| 17:58.43 | etorix | u can vfat from linux |
| 17:58.49 | Ch0Hag | I can't unstuff anything else. |
| 17:59.12 | etorix | hmm .. i never formatted over network |
| 17:59.15 | etorix | sec |
| 17:59.24 | etorix | um |
| 17:59.28 | Ch0Hag | I have no network, just a network install disc. |
| 17:59.38 | Ch0Hag | It's the only dd-able image I've managed to scour off the net. |
| 17:59.47 | etorix | u need an rescue disk floppy |
| 18:00.37 | Ch0Hag | From? |
| 18:01.32 | Ch0Hag | Bah why must everything be compressed with these weird mac compression tools? |
| 18:02.30 | clive-h | There's a linux unstuffit |
| 18:02.37 | Ch0Hag | Yeah it segfaults. |
| 18:03.23 | clive-h | I think you may need to do export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL |

| 18:23.21 | Ch0Hag | rescue.bin doesn't boot. |
| 18:25.32 | Ch0Hag | etorix: Do you have a 68k mac boot disc with hd preparation utilities and a few minutes to spare? |
| 18:25.48 | etorix | um |
| 18:25.55 | Ch0Hag | to, eg., decompress it for me and let me download it. |
| 18:26.02 | etorix | well, i may have on floppy |
| 18:26.33 | etorix | trouble is , handling these on linux destroys em |
| 18:27.01 | Ch0Hag | Yeah that's the trouble I seem to be having. |
| 18:30.07 | Ch0Hag | Acorn are so much easier. |
| 18:30.30 | Ch0Hag | OS in ROM and an easily downloadable app to stick on a PC disc and format a hard drive. |

| 19:23.19 | Ch0Hag | Can't say I've ever experienced that. |
| 19:24.24 | Armand | prefer some red onions in a greek salad. |
| 19:24.36 | Armand | but this was just a crappy basic salad. |
| 19:24.40 | Armand | :( |
| 19:24.44 | Ch0Hag | Salad sucks. |

| 19:34.44 | Ch0Hag | Massive breasts are generally not cute. |
| 19:34.46 | morsing | She also used to be on my Facebook friends list but I have been ordered to delete her |
| 19:34.52 | morsing | Ch0Hag: I agree |
| 19:35.07 | z00dax | morsing: ok you can keep her |
| 19:35.16 | morsing | Quite surprised she responded |
| 19:35.30 | morsing | z00dax: Why? You not into the whole breast thing either? |
| 19:35.48 | z00dax | not really no |
| 19:35.57 | morsing | Good |
| 19:36.48 | morsing | She's a very nice girl though |
| 19:37.01 | z00dax | aye, i am sure you will do well together |
| 19:39.14 | morsing | z00dax: HA HA HA HA! !!!! Do you want to see me dead? I can list about 2-3 maybe four people who would string me up for touching her! |
| 19:39.42 | z00dax | morsing: atleast you die happy |
| 19:40.21 | morsing | :) You mean they would suffocate me between her breasts? :O |
| 19:40.34 | z00dax | if thats what floats your boat... |
| 19:40.51 | z00dax | and as long as she is not BSD licensed |
| 19:41.22 | morsing | I don't think I quite got that...? |
| 19:49.59 | Armand | z00dax, what are you asking for those Netra units? |
| 20:00.12 | z00dax | Armand: interest and usage in Linux/sparc |
| 20:00.52 | Armand | Well, interest in Linux, for sure. :D |
| 20:01.33 | Armand | I've never touched Sun hardware.. so I can't really say for that, but I do want to learn. |
| 20:01.39 | clive-h | z00dax: does centos support sparc on the netras? |
| 20:01.55 | z00dax | clive-h: its what we are working on |
| 20:02.05 | clive-h | ahh ok |
| 20:02.08 | Armand | I'm moving over all my hardware to Linux atm. |
| 20:02.12 | z00dax | you can pretty much install 4.2 on it - and get an upgrade path. We should have 5.1 on there in about a months time |
| 20:02.36 | clive-h | 4.2 would be what i'd do then |
| 20:02.37 | Armand | getting intensely bored of Windoze & M$ in general. |
| 20:02.48 | z00dax | Armand: send me an email : its my nickname at centos.org |
| 20:02.53 | Armand | rgr |
| 20:03.11 | z00dax | I am surprised that no one on gllug list has mentioned anything :) |
| 20:03.36 | clive-h | I loathe doze |
| 20:04.02 | clive-h | I find it counter intuitive |
| 20:05.30 | Armand | mostly, I'm getting annoyed with all the DRM + licensing BS. |
| 20:05.54 | Armand | I don't need M$ to tell me WHAT I'm allowed to do with MY hardware. |
| 20:06.43 | clive-h | Linux has DRM |
| 20:06.53 | Armand | where? |
| 20:07.39 | clive-h | Linus took the view hell why not |
| 20:07.47 | Armand | O_O |
| 20:07.51 | Armand | thats bollocks. |
| 20:08.10 | clive-h | No |
| 20:08.29 | clive-h | You don't have to enable it |
| 20:08.32 | Armand | sounds more like, "If we don't, the kernel won't run on Intel's hardware" |
| 20:08.53 | clive-h | Not at all |
| 20:09.29 | Armand | it's just the whole M$ + Intel dictatorship issue that pisses me off, tbh. |
| 20:10.04 | Armand | I've been reading about the whole "Trusted" issue for a few years now, and it's just sick. |
| 20:10.22 | Armand | Why the hell should I trust them? |
| 20:10.45 | clive-h | Errrm |
| 20:10.51 | Armand | Although, I should say.. I suffer from rampant paranioa. :P |
| 20:11.23 | clive-h | i think getting someone to talk about SElinux was mooted |
| 20:12.14 | clive-h | the nix community is also interested in trusted platforms |
| 20:14.28 | Armand | can't say I'm that interested meself.. |

| 21:59.04 | z00dax | not me no, i am on a low java diet |
| 21:59.32 | hali | they fucking cool boxes |
| 21:59.37 | hali | i'm getting one for work |
| 21:59.43 | hali | just wondered if anyone had played with them |
| 21:59.54 | hali | a client just bought the 768 cpu model |

| 22:00.28 | z00dax | 768 ? wtf are they doing with that |
| 22:00.53 | hali | normal cheating |
| 22:01.02 | hali | it's just a custom chip |
| 22:01.06 | hali | 48 cores per chip |
| 22:01.07 | hali | 16 chips |
| 22:01.15 | z00dax | is it cores, or threads |
| 22:01.18 | hali | cores |
| 22:01.24 | hali | actually processing units |
| 22:01.27 | hali | not threads |
| 22:01.42 | z00dax | this is the vega2 platform righ ? |
| 22:01.44 | z00dax | right |
| 22:01.50 | hali | yep |
| 22:01.57 | hali | over a million quid |
| 22:02.07 | z00dax | even for 96 cores ? |
| 22:02.12 | hali | nah |
| 22:02.13 | z00dax | thats only 2 sockets |
| 22:02.18 | hali | the 3220 i'm getting is just 225k |
| 22:02.25 | z00dax | I bet oracle love it for their per-socket pricing model |
| 22:02.32 | hali | heh e:) |
| 22:02.40 | hali | it only runs java offloading though |
| 22:02.46 | hali | custom os and all |
| 22:02.59 | z00dax | does it do the whole java-6 stack ? |
| 22:03.10 | z00dax | i suppose for that much money, prolly does |
| 22:04.33 | clive-h | errrki |
| 22:07.57 | hali | not sure about java6, but it does *most* java5 things |
| 22:07.57 | hali | it still requires an appserver etc |
| 22:07.58 | hali | i won't do any jdbc calls etc |
