Due to some reason, one of our mounted server has been restarted; now when we want to unmount the client server we will get the following error while we're using -f flag: umount -f -l /mnt/* umount: /mnt/nfs: not mounted Any ideas?

Videonauth

Zacharee1

Zacharee1

@Zacharee1 you should post the link with a summary/photos on my flower Q: microscopy-uk.org.uk/mag/indexmag.html?http://…

Zacharee1

@onebree Maybe it said it supported 1080p in a way that made it sound like it was 1080p?

@onebree Probably. Maybe I will

although, the current answer seems pretty valid and I have no idea what I'm talking about

Anonymous

@Zacharee1 but your link provides evidence or something, more than just "yeah it's this"

Zacharee1

hmm

Anonymous

@Zacharee1 I think so. But I am glad to have a true HD TV now

Zacharee1

10:10 PM

heh

Timed out

Videonauth

mhmm ok

weird port forwarding is set and apache is running mayb e the firewall on the machine messing up

Zacharee1

Timing out usually points to something with the connection to your IP. For me, the connection usually just gets refused if the destination is online.

Zacharee1

Zacharee1

The best chinese place by me has cantonese wontons, which are like fried pot stockers, but better

Terrance

10:25 PM

Dang, I shouldn't have looked at that pic of pot stickers. Now I'm starving! ;)

Seth

I love pot stickers!

But I usually boil them.

Zacharee1

I like them either way

Terrance

They're very good boiled!

Zacharee1

@Terrance muahahah

Zacharee1

@onebree how about Giant or Wegman's or ShopRite?

@Videonauth pot stickers?

Terrance

@Zacharee1 Because it's not curbing my cravings for pot stickers now! ;)

Videonauth

huh ? where ?

Zacharee1

lol

@Videonauth so far it looks like it :/

Terrance

I try. :)

Zacharee1

10:29 PM

lol

Videonauth

sighs

Terrance

Tonight looks like it is going to be really good cheesy pizza since everybody in my house (except for me) will be watching the WWE Pay-Per-View tonight.

Zacharee1

Your ISP doesn't block those ports, does it? @Videonauth

@Terrance I just ate and now I'm hungry :(

Videonauth

nah why should they?

Zacharee1

@Videonauth US's do

Videonauth

10:32 PM

it worked on windows before too

Zacharee1

hmm

Maybe try using No-IP?

Terrance

Mine are open on those ports.

Zacharee1

@Terrance Most* of US's do

Videonauth

is there a good site for scannnig open ports ?

Zacharee1

PenTeleData, Comcast I think

Terrance

10:33 PM

No-IP is a great service. It is what I am using right now.

Zacharee1

@Videonauth yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports

@Terrance it is

Terrance

Centurylink

Zacharee1

ew

Terrance

lol

Bonded 40 works good though

Zacharee1

Before we had cable, we had them for DSL. blegh

Expensive to the extreme for unreliable service, even though the switch house or whatever was 2 blocks away

Terrance

10:34 PM

I've been with them for years. They always move me to the cheapest, yet fastest things for my neighborhood.

Videonauth

mhmm it says the ports are closed

but that can be because they might be closed on my machien

how can i check that ?

Zacharee1

-_-

Just sudo ufw allow them

Then you'll know for sure :p

Videonauth

it was my machine, seems apache doesnt add them properly to ufw

Terrance

@Zacharee1 I had cable once before, and they did the same thing for me. I really believe that the majority of problems really all depends on where you live.

Videonauth

ok ist that now a fixed setting ?

Zacharee1

10:36 PM

@Videonauth tsk tsk :p

@Terrance probably

@Videonauth Ja es is ;p

Videonauth

correction "Ja ist es"

Zacharee1

"Yes is it"

?

Terrance

Now, if I can only get fiber. But they don't have plans yet. >:(

Zacharee1

@Terrance oh look at Mr. High and Mighty wanting fiber :P

Videonauth

thats what i told you about german has other building of setences

Terrance

Zacharee1

@Terrance one typo I wish you had made...

@Mateo dunno

Anonymous

@Terrance I read that as "pooped"

Terrance

10:42 PM

@Zacharee1 LMAO!

Zacharee1

yeah :D

@onebree that's the typo I wanted

Terrance

That would be weird.

:P

Zacharee1

Well if you eat popcorn, what else is going to happen?

Terrance

True

Maybe before I die, I will swallow a whole bag of popcorn kernels so that they get a surprise when they cremate my body! ;)

Zacharee1

That'll the the reason you die

Terrance

10:44 PM

Yep

@Seth how else are we gonna have fun?

Seth

10:47 PM

@Terrance mm. what kind?

Zacharee1

Cheesy, he says

Terrance

@Seth It's from a place call "The Pie", and it is pepperoni and black olive and cheese pull-aparts. They put more cheese on it then the rest of the pizza.

Seth

ooh, that is a good combo.

I like to add minced garlic to mine as well.

Anonymous

I could go for a greasy pizza hunt stuffed bacon crust right now

Terrance

These are really good. It was started by some university students a while ago, and it has become a very popular place out here.

OK, time to go get the pizza now. Peace all!

Zacharee1

11:26 PM

@Mateo no ports D:

I wonder if I should try installing normal Ubuntu. Does it have an ARM version?

Seth

anyone on 14.04?

Zacharee1

no

o_O

The Snapdragon 820 can do 600Mb/s down on LTE

Carriers don't even support anywhere near that, do they?

Videonauth

@Seth i could install it in a VM why ?

Zacharee1

And O_o again: the 820 also supports Wireless AD, which operates at 60GHz and can do up to 7Gb/s

Seth

oh it's not worth that.

I was just curious about something.

Anonymous

11:33 PM

does anyone have gravatar? I am wondering if it is wroth it

Seth

I use it.

back in the day it was the only supported method of changing your SE avatar.

do I really need a wordpress account to have a gravatar? I just don't want to make an account for WP if I will never use it

Zacharee1

@onebree use your Google account to make a WP account to make a Gravatar account

Seth

@onebree yes. How do you expect to get one without creating an account of some kind?

Zacharee1

registration chains are fun :p

Why is the Snapdragon 820 so amazing?

Seth

11:35 PM

WP doesn't support other openIDs as an account zach

well there go my plans for tonight

So I commented on the garden site asking how big those florets could be. The person said "ask another question". I mean, why can't he just add to his answer?

Well more rep I guess :p

Seth

@onebree some people are just like that.

Zacharee1

LTE-U is a version of LTE that would operate at 5GHz. Weird

Qualcomm supports a technology not yet implemented, but I guess they did propose it, so... :p

future-proofing

@onebree like with the X-Files

Seth

@Zacharee1 why.. would that be a good idea?

Zacharee1

The X-Files == Qualcomm, Illuminati confirmed

Anonymous

@Zacharee1 Well future proofing is an actual practice by some companies/devs

Zacharee1

@Seth apparently, it'd give better signal in congested areas, but it does seem weird

Seth

11:42 PM

@Zacharee1 well more bandwidth, yes. But 5GHz doesn't seem like a good frequency for that.. Dunno. I know T-mobile uses similar high frequencies in some cities tho, so maybe it isn't so bad

I can (a) code, (b) watch family feud, or (c) both

@Seth I honestly can't believe T-Mobile is cheaper than Sprint, has fewer (if any) MVNOs than Sprint and has somehow managed to surpass them in coverage

@onebree (d) stay here :)

Anonymous

I would if I did A or C

Zacharee1

The do (a). Two things at once is bad enough, but you might go insane with three or more :p

Seth

11:44 PM

@Zacharee1 now that you say it.. yeah, it is hard to believe! but from what I've heard sprint isn't doing too bad on the network growth either.

but GSM > CDMA.

Zacharee1

What about GSM+CDMA? Is that better than GSM? :p

Seth

hm. maybe.

Zacharee1

My phone supports I think literally every current cellular band globally

Terrance

@Zacharee1 Good phone then. Mine only supports CDMA; LTE/CDMA; GSM/UMTS

Zacharee1

Carrier?

Terrance

11:47 PM

I don't even know what UMTS is.

Sprint

Zacharee1

Dupe of something I'm too lazy to find: askubuntu.com/questions/776124/…

@Terrance print("Sprint");

Terrance

LOL

Yep!

Zacharee1

@Terrance UMTS is GSM 3G

Terrance

Ah

Zacharee1

If I read the Wikipedia blurb correctly, that is

UMTS (telecommunication)

The Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) is a third generation mobile cellular system for networks based on the GSM standard. Developed and maintained by the 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project), UMTS is a component of the International Telecommunications Union IMT-2000 standard set and compares with the CDMA2000 standard set for networks based on the competing cdmaOne technology. UMTS uses wideband code division multiple access (W-CDMA) radio access technology to offer greater spectral efficiency and bandwidth to mobile network operators. UMTS specifies a complete network system...

Terrance

11:49 PM

I just set my phone to automatic so it switches automatically between them all

Zacharee1

Wait. It's based on the GSM standard, but uses WCDMA? wat

@Terrance probably the best. My phone calls that Global, for reasons previously discussed ;p

Terrance

Yeah, I was just reading that.

I missed that part

Zacharee1

I mean, it would make sense that a CDMA carrier would use CDMA up to LTE

All I know is at my job I use Wifi calling because the center data center room does not get any signal of any type in it other than Wifi.

Zacharee1

I wish Verizon would roll out WiFi calling like they promised

They're almost a year late

Oh, they've released it, but only for "compatible devices"

Terrance

It's pretty nice!

Are they saying that they have seamless transitions?

Zacharee1

They probably don't

Terrance

Mine doesn't have it

That's OK though

Zacharee1

In any case, I need an S6 or later, a Note 5 or later, a G4 or later or an iPhone 6 or later :/

Terrance

11:55 PM

I finish my calls before driving anyway. :)

Zacharee1

heh

smart man

Terrance

WOW! The S5 supports it fine. I wonder why Verizon chose just those models to do that on?

Zacharee1

Because..... wait for it..........

¡¡¡¡¡VERIZON!!!!!

Terrance

Good answer!

Seth

@Zacharee1 Does the S5 have marshmallow? A lot of the wifi calling handover features arrived with 6.0.

Zacharee1

11:58 PM

@Seth doubt it. Neither does the Note4

Terrance

Verizon actually sent me to collections on a fraudulent account that was opened under my name. They wouldn't talk to me at all once it went to collections for me to even argue my case with them. Then they told me that I couldn't even open another account with them in the future. Jerks!

Zacharee1

That would probably explain it though

@Terrance xD

Did you pay?

Terrance

My S5 has Wifi calling and Marshmallow, but I haven't tested seamless though.

Zacharee1

Sprint's always quick to release updates

Terrance

@Zacharee1 No, I found the loophole around here for that one. The collection company can't even touch me if they wanted to. 7 years is all they have to collect, and the time resets if I respond to them. So, I got away with out ever paying them. :D
