07:33.01 | morsing | She was really nice. She denied being posh though, laughing all night about the fact I said she was :D |
07:33.46 | nixofortune | i thought you r married man. |

09:23.36 | gregj-uk | mentaly, or she has flu or something ? |
09:29.09 | morsing | Leeds: US kind sick or UK kind sick? |
09:29.22 | Leeds | she has vomited twice today |
09:29.38 | morsing | :( |
09:29.41 | gregj-uk | pregnant ? |
09:30.07 | gregj-uk | (geeks talking about woman sickness, priceless) |
09:39.19 | wethrin | morsing: I'm not in denial about Gllug being mostly-dead. However, I actually made an effort to organise some meetings before I ended up having too much to do. You've made no effort to organise any meetings. |
09:40.15 | wethrin | So I think I can quite reasonably be irritated by people who clam sonething's dead while not making any effort themselves to try and keep it alive |
09:41.07 | morsing | wethrin: How so? The statement "It's dead" has nothing whatsoever to do with anyone's willingness to keep it alive? It's a self-contained statement! |
09:41.16 | morsing | s/?/!/ |
09:41.31 | morsing | Aaqrggg - second ? not the first |
09:41.49 | morsing | gregj-uk: I'm not a geek |
09:42.43 | wethrin | "It's dead" is a blanket, final statement. "It's dead at the moment; we're working on more meetings" would be better |
09:42.59 | morsing | We? |
09:43.04 | morsing | I'm not... |
09:43.18 | wethrin | Well, you should be |
09:43.19 | morsing | I can't tell people that someone else is working on something |
09:43.22 | morsing | I shouldn't... |
09:45.53 | Leeds | wethrin: to be fair, he shouldn't |
09:46.16 | Leeds | wethrin: neither should you, greg or I |
09:46.40 | morsing | Clive should... |
09:47.12 | wethrin | Someone actually in London should |
09:48.22 | gregj-uk | morsing: yes, you're british |
09:48.32 | gregj-uk | morsing: that makes you a geek |

12:44.53 | gregj-uk | anyone with oil heating here ? |
12:45.05 | morsing | No - we're in the UK |
12:45.10 | morsing | gregj-uk: Why? |
12:45.17 | gregj-uk | for your information, NI is part of UK |
12:45.35 | morsing | Why do you ask? |
12:45.38 | gregj-uk | but not part of GB, which is a geograpical term for "main island" |
12:45.44 | gregj-uk | cos we do have oil heating |
12:45.51 | gregj-uk | just like some ppl in scotland |
12:45.56 | gregj-uk | and probably england too |
12:46.03 | morsing | gregj-uk: Don't tell NI people this - believe me, I know you're right but they don't believe you and get upset |
12:46.22 | antiphase | Since when have all you foreigners been so interested in the minutiae of the UK? |
12:46.51 | gregj-uk | but it wasn't used for a while, and I was wondering, what should I check before starting it |
12:46.59 | morsing | antiphase: I got in trouble with my boss at work once for trying to explain to my NI colleague that NI isn't in Britain |
12:47.11 | morsing | gregj-uk: Check it's got oil |
12:47.11 | gregj-uk | morsing: trust me, I live here for over a month now, I know what I can ask the locals about and how |
12:47.19 | gregj-uk | I bought a fucking oil today |
12:50.17 | gregj-uk | I really love when ppl assume I am intelligent enough, in conversation |
12:50.39 | wethrin | United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland |
12:50.42 | wethrin | The clue's in the name |
12:52.02 | wethrin | There''s probably very little you can check with oil heating, other than the level of oil |
12:55.34 | wethrin | Turn it on, and if you smell burning, turn it off |
12:55.52 | wethrin | http://eliasqfuntybunt.wordpress.com/2008/10/06/linux-and-marketing-a-rant/ |
12:56.40 | gregj-uk | what about air in pipes and stuff like that |
12:56.53 | gregj-uk | I mean that has to be some water in heating system probably |
12:57.05 | gregj-uk | and since it has not been used for some time, it evaporated by now |
12:57.42 | antiphase | If you think water can evaporate from a sealed heating system, you should probably consult a qualified person |
12:58.15 | gregj-uk | it is sealed, fair enough, but you'll still end up with minor leaks |
12:58.30 | gregj-uk | trust me, I have gas heater in other place, and you have to add water to it every month-two |
12:58.34 | gregj-uk | not much, but still |
12:58.36 | gregj-uk | so... |
12:58.54 | gregj-uk | don't try to be smarter than you are |
12:59.06 | antiphase | laughs heartily |
12:59.45 | gregj-uk | smirks, and says 'pff, arogant ignorants' |
12:59.49 | antiphase | I detect someone that's not going to get on too well in the UK |
12:59.52 | wethrin | Air you can bleed out of radiators |
13:00.11 | gregj-uk | antiphase: 6 years, and doing well |
13:00.50 | gregj-uk | but I have to say, there's more ignorants here than on mainland, just takes some time to get used to that |
13:00.53 | gregj-uk | ;p |
13:01.09 | wethrin | If you turn the central heating pump on, you'll hear if there's air in the system |

13:01.38 | antiphase | Then the pump will seize if there's no water |
13:01.40 | antiphase | \o/ |
13:01.45 | gregj-uk | question is, does it have a valve somewhere that I have to turn on, and wait for pressure to come to certain level, or will it just do it by it self |
13:02.08 | antiphase | would answer, but apparently isn't qualified |
13:02.09 | gregj-uk | with gas eating, you have to turn on a valve for a bit, untill the pressure comes to right value, turn it off, and than turn on heating |
13:02.24 | gregj-uk | but it is probably a slightly different thing with oil heating |

13:03.46 | wethrin | antiphase: If there's no water, sure. If there's just some air bubbles, it's not going to do damage |
13:04.11 | gregj-uk | anyway, lemme see |
13:04.27 | antiphase | I'm just far too ignorant to know anything about central heating. Oh yes. |
13:04.32 | antiphase | is a fucking retard |

20:16.15 | DiscordianUK | likewise |
20:21.44 | hali | good evening |
20:21.59 | Kitty | hello hali |
20:22.01 | DiscordianUK | hi hali |
20:22.24 | hali | Kitty: hows business, sellling vps' like butter? |
20:22.42 | Kitty | not like butter, but sales are ok |
20:22.44 | Kitty | could do better |
20:22.48 | Kitty | would you like to buy a vm ? |
20:22.56 | DiscordianUK | haha |
20:23.04 | hali | i'm alright, i've hidden three servers in a closet at my old employeer |
20:23.12 | Kitty | lol |
20:23.55 | hali | do you do sun vms yet? |
20:24.03 | hali | or all xen |
20:24.35 | Kitty | al xen |
20:24.40 | DiscordianUK | solaris zones? |
20:24.45 | Kitty | tho its a heavily customized xen |
20:24.46 | hali | joyent own that market it seems |
20:24.59 | Kitty | solaris zones just aren't upto the job right now |
20:25.35 | DiscordianUK | i concluded that about openvz too |
20:25.56 | Kitty | xen is an appalling solution |
20:26.00 | Kitty | but its the best of a bad bunch |
20:26.55 | DiscordianUK | so many virt solutions |
20:27.32 | hali | virtuozzo seems ok, but a bit pricey |
20:27.38 | morsing | Beer |
20:27.50 | hali | lots of vps providers use virtuozzo |
20:28.03 | Kitty | hali: and all the decent ones use xen |
20:28.16 | Kitty | virtuozzo allows for overselling |
20:28.26 | Kitty | xen gives dedicated resources. |
20:28.39 | DiscordianUK | unless there's some magic in virtuozzo that's not in openvz i'd avoid |
20:28.47 | hali | probably why less-than-honest companies use virtuozzo |
20:28.52 | Kitty | hali: quite |
20:29.11 | hali | and it comes with pretty provisioning software out of the box |
20:29.16 | Kitty | ultimately, I would love a Z series running VM |
20:29.25 | hali | yeah that would be pretty cool |
20:29.36 | Kitty | but it uses 5kw jus tto sit there |
20:29.44 | DiscordianUK | mm a mainframe |
20:29.47 | Kitty | yeah |
20:29.49 | hali | and capex is pretty high |
20:29.53 | Kitty | and takes up the space of about 3 racks |
20:29.59 | DiscordianUK | i'd love to do that too |
20:30.49 | DiscordianUK | but we should be greening the planet |
20:31.06 | DiscordianUK | and z-series aren't green |
20:31.08 | hali | mainframes are the greenest boxes you can buy |
20:31.11 | Kitty | they are |
20:31.21 | Kitty | when you consider you can get several thousand vm's on one box |
20:31.26 | hali | as avg utilization is high |
20:31.36 | DiscordianUK | i guess |
20:32.01 | DiscordianUK | but the construction isn't green |
20:32.40 | Kitty | when the worlds end, its going to be z series and cockroaches |
20:32.50 | hali | :) |
20:32.54 | Kitty | maybe some of the old sun kit |
20:33.10 | hali | yeah, sun isn't what it used to be |
20:33.20 | DiscordianUK | what kind of sun kit? |
20:33.29 | hali | i was upgrading a sun v880 the other day and compared to the new boxes it's just so rock solid hw |
20:33.41 | hali | 880 was the last true sun box |
20:33.45 | hali | well, 890 too |
20:34.16 | DiscordianUK | sparcs ftw |
20:34.41 | hali | i run my X on that box these days, much faster :) |
20:34.44 | hali | 32gb ram in it |
20:34.51 | Kitty | needs to rebuild her sparc coffee table... |
20:35.02 | DiscordianUK | heh |
20:35.18 | DiscordianUK | what sparcs died for that? |
20:35.44 | Kitty | IPX, IPC, Classic, 2, 2, 5, 5, 10, 10, 20 , 20 |

20:38.17 | DiscordianUK | i'm not ready to skip the ultras just yet |
