| 09:43.53 | ChoHag | Error message fail: print STDERR "Database user role failed\n"; |
| 09:44.24 | ChoHag | That's exactly as useful as 'computer says no'. |
| 09:53.39 | ChoHag | One of our bin directories is full of jpg files because a client's cronjob got confused where its temp store was. |
| 09:55.55 | ChoHag | I love being a contractor. Never have I seen so much pure fail. |
| 10:10.07 | wethrin | Except in every other place you've worked? |
| 10:12.42 | ChoHag | They seem to get progressively worse. |

| 13:12.44 | dick_turpin | Afternoon all |
| 13:24.33 | morsing | It's not afternoon yet |
| 13:24.41 | morsing | AndyMillar: G'night |
| 13:26.21 | dick_turpin | Dam I've missed evensong :-( |
| 13:26.56 | AndyMillar | heh |
| 13:28.49 | morsing | Hmmm... pwd is the only command that doesn't hang on my home server |
| 13:33.03 | dick_turpin | shutdown -h now would be even better |
| 14:06.39 | wethrin | morsing: Your disk sounds buggered |
| 14:36.07 | dick_turpin | bilarh: :'( |
| 14:37.40 | wethrin | evenin' dick_turpin |
| 14:42.29 | dick_turpin | wethrin: What we up to then? |
| 14:44.17 | wethrin | we're up to Thursday |
| 14:44.19 | wethrin | tomorrow's Friday |
| 14:44.38 | cbz | misread that as 'dick' |
| 14:46.10 | dick_turpin | waves his glasses at cbz |
| 14:46.50 | dick_turpin | wethrin: Your just jealous because you've not had an invite to the wedding |
| 14:48.50 | wethrin | No-one invites me to anything :( |
| 14:50.47 | dick_turpin | That's because you intimidate everyone with your professorship |
| 14:51.01 | wethrin | I'm only a doctor! |
| 14:52.08 | dick_turpin | Show off |
| 14:52.25 | dick_turpin | "Only" Pah |
| 14:54.08 | wethrin | heh |
| 14:54.57 | ChoHag | Can you use more than one expansion on a variable? |
| 14:55.06 | ChoHag | eg. I currently have mac=${1//:/-}; mac=${mac,,}. Can I just do mac=${1<something>} where the something will do both the regex substitution and case modification? |
| 15:03.37 | dick_turpin | wethrin: What's your Doctorate in? |
| 15:05.26 | wethrin | Organic electronics |
| 15:22.29 | dick_turpin | I was going to figure out some sarky repost but I don't have the energy for the minute |
| 15:25.23 | wethrin | hehe |
| 15:36.23 | morsing | wethrin! |
| 15:36.27 | wethrin | hi |
| 15:39.07 | dick_turpin | wethrin: So here's an internal laugh for you, about two or three months ago I had a play around here with FreeNAS and OpenFiler the idea being to maybe sell it out as part of a solution |
| 15:39.32 | wethrin | yeah... |
| 15:40.37 | dick_turpin | CYB has a little diddy micro box "Pete I have had a good this lot has cost us £95 and Simon says we can put a Linux thing FreeNAS on it and say knock it out at £140" |
| 15:41.19 | dick_turpin | "Erm excuse me, we have had a FreeNAS box on our network for months! How is this a new idea?" |
| 15:41.33 | dick_turpin | "Oh wait silly me" |
| 15:41.47 | dick_turpin | "Its new becuase you thought of it" |
| 15:42.13 | dick_turpin | "or did you steal the idea?" |
| 15:48.12 | morsing | ? |
| 15:48.39 | wethrin | heh |
| 15:49.24 | dick_turpin | I really didn't want to come back today :-( |
| 15:49.54 | morsing | Who's Simon? |
| 15:50.10 | dick_turpin | Guy who works here |
| 15:50.15 | morsing | wethrin: Do you get it? |
| 15:50.41 | wethrin | yes |
| 16:02.39 | dick_turpin | wethrin: Did you see my "Ringing round the University's" phone bill message on the Internet? |
| 16:02.47 | wethrin | no.. |
| 16:02.53 | dick_turpin | £113.00 |
| 16:03.03 | dick_turpin | :'( |
| 16:04.07 | wethrin | ouch |
| 16:04.34 | dick_turpin | I've put my mom back on the game to try and pay it |
| 16:04.46 | wethrin | think bilarh will pay that much for her? |
| 16:05.21 | dick_turpin | Seeing as he never gets any that's a cheap price for him |
| 16:05.27 | wethrin | yeah |
| 16:07.22 | dick_turpin | So one of our guys has just come back from a visit. The customer bought 5 Fuji rackmount servers for £75 a pop they are old but not that old all are pretty good apparently and still boxed |
| 16:07.30 | wethrin | that's not bad |
| 16:07.39 | wethrin | hey, on a more serious note |
| 16:08.09 | dick_turpin | Oh go on I was just about to tell a story but it can wait a minute |
| 16:08.26 | wethrin | do you know of an external disk enclosure that can take 6 SATA hard disks? |
| 16:08.38 | wethrin | tell your story now :) |
| 16:08.49 | dick_turpin | Yeah a server case! |
| 16:10.38 | wethrin | dick_turpin: http://tinyurl.com/38fhr9e - something like that, maybe |
| 16:11.01 | wethrin | but just the case |
| 16:11.19 | dick_turpin | http://tinyurl.com/36oo48o |
| 16:11.52 | wethrin | Right. I'm not paying a grand for that |
| 16:11.54 | dick_turpin | Ooh Qnap I sold one of those a couple of months back |
| 16:13.30 | dick_turpin | wethrin: There is this http://tinyurl.com/3xpw2ehbut its only 4 bays |
| 16:14.10 | dick_turpin | Of course you could get that then daisy chain a 2 bay off it. |
| 16:14.32 | wethrin | True |
| 16:14.59 | dick_turpin | feels like he is dealing with one of his cheap and nasty customers |
| 16:15.17 | wethrin | I am cheap |
| 16:15.19 | wethrin | but I'm not nasty! |
| 16:15.30 | dick_turpin | The solution is nasty |
| 16:15.40 | dick_turpin | But it would work |
| 16:16.23 | dick_turpin | You'd lose a little bit on through-put but hey look at what you'd save in pounds shillings and pence |
| 16:17.05 | morsing | dick_turpin: What's for tea? |
| 16:17.26 | dick_turpin | Sausage, mash peas and gravy |
| 16:17.55 | morsing | Oh, Sharon is cooking for you? |
| 16:18.19 | dick_turpin | Sharon is certainly letting me stick something in the oven |
| 16:18.37 | wethrin | buns? |
| 16:19.06 | dick_turpin | If I play my cards right I may get to pop something in the grill as well |
| 16:22.48 | morsing | Nice |
| 16:23.04 | dick_turpin | Makes me smile |
