Nathan Osman

It's probably closer to 32 C outside.

mojo706

:v

Zignd

@NathanOsman do you really live in Canada?

jokerdino

He lives near the water. The cool clear water.

Call me V

no he just likes hockey for no reason...

jokerdino

6:01 PM

honorary Canadian?

Call me V

/snark

Nathan Osman

@Zignd Yes.

M̦̙̬̿̌͒a͇̯̾͒̌͜t̖͚̥͆̀͝ȩ͔͔̂̏̓o̾

eh, It will last a month. I accidentally edited my name again to check if I could change it back just to find I can't change it again. Is that something a mod can mess with If It gets crazy a week into the month @jokerdino

jokerdino

i can edit the name if you want to

Call me V

yes, a mod can fix it if they want to

Seth

6:02 PM

You'll have to pay them though..

Zignd

@NathanOsman I always thought it was a very cool place

M̦̙̬̿̌͒a͇̯̾͒̌͜t̖͚̥͆̀͝ȩ͔͔̂̏̓o̾

@Seth In cookies?

Seth

I think @jokerdino likes frozen yogurt...

Nathan Osman

@Zignd ...and we live in igloos, right? :P

Call me V

i like iced coffee, but that's another thing

jokerdino

6:03 PM

that's not the costliest things.

Nathan Osman

Anyone else seeing this on GitHub?

Seth

@M̦̙̬̿̌͒a͇̯̾͒̌͜t̖͚̥͆̀͝ȩ͔͔̂̏̓o̾ That works too. (tip: Shog like pie. With icecream.)

Nathan Osman

Zignd

@NathanOsman I saw this error page when I tried to create a git page.

Call me V

@NathanOsman not recently, but i'm on a painfully slow internet connection until wednesday if they don't push my DSL install date and bandwidth request

Seth

6:04 PM

Since we're talking about temperature... It's 31 C here. I am hot.

4

jokerdino

You are what?

jrg

laptop is 45c

Zignd

My laptop gets 50 C while playing minecraft

Call me V

76 F. you do the math. every day same cool air-conditioned temperature.

Seth

Why did that get stars?

jrg

6:05 PM

"I am hot". Best comment ever.

jokerdino

You said "I am hot".

Call me V

just a way to say @Seth is awesome.

Seth

Oh, I meant outside... O_o

Nathan Osman

@Zignd My video card pushes 75 C sometimes.

jrg

fantastic!

Seth

6:06 PM

I need to move somewhere colder.

jrg

@Seth come to ohio.

Zignd

@Seth Really? "I am hot" a chat filled of mans?

jrg

i've got a couch.

5

Nathan Osman

I always got nervous back when I had a mechanical hard drive and it routinely exceeded 60 C.

Call me V

my video card used to, but now i only have laptops...so the temp doubles and the performance is cut in half

Nathan Osman

6:07 PM

@Seth Move here! It's only 37 C...

M̦̙̬̿̌͒a͇̯̾͒̌͜t̖͚̥͆̀͝ȩ͔͔̂̏̓o̾

@jrg cozy

Call me V

i don't want the high income area couch. i want the low income area and telecommuting. insta-double-pay.

Seth

@jrg If Ohio is anything like Indiana I'll pass ;P

jrg

@Seth you should come to ohio, and live on the couch at work, and use the fast internets.

Call me V

just saying...i'm about half way through making my own mobile-command-center.

shameless die-hard reference

Seth

6:09 PM

@NathanOsman And you live North of me.. Global warming proven! /sarcasm

Nathan Osman

@jrg How fast?

jrg

@NathanOsman 50/50, theoretically.

in actuality, gigabit.

M̦̙̬̿̌͒a͇̯̾͒̌͜t̖͚̥͆̀͝ȩ͔͔̂̏̓o

@jrg did they expand the line like they were talking about when I was there?

Call me V

@jrg i'ld have to break in to the dslam to get that here

jrg

but i can't get a good reading on speedtest because everyone is using it right now.

Seth

6:10 PM

Say, who got Google's fiber optics?

jrg

@M̦̙̬̿̌͒a͇̯̾͒̌͜t̖͚̥͆̀͝ȩ͔͔̂̏̓o̾ they expanded a little bit, but not by much.

@Seth we've got the local equivalent.

Call me V

can't argue with 2k/yr plus internet for bills though

M̦̙̬̿̌͒a͇̯̾͒̌͜t̖͚̥͆̀͝ȩ͔͔̂̏̓o

@jrg ah, so not the "lets start a internet service" much

Seth

@jrg I've got the local equivalent too... cable.

jrg

@M̦̙̬̿̌͒a͇̯̾͒̌͜t̖͚̥͆̀͝ȩ͔͔̂̏̓o̾ nope, not yet.

@Seth no, like fiber into the building.

Call me V

6:12 PM

awwz, i'm out of coffee flavored ice cubes

it's the little things

Seth

@jrg Sweet.

mashable.com/2013/07/01/mozilla-firefox-os-phones

Call me V

danny elfman, little things. just saying, listen to it every time you hit a little wall

Nathan Osman

I really wish Google Fiber would come here. I've got 1.2 Mbps right now.

mojo706

I have a Keon @Seth

Seth

@mojo706 How do you like it?

Nathan Osman

6:17 PM

It's ADSL, so at least, I always get 1.2 Mbps. It's never throttled and it doesn't drop.

Call me V

@NathanOsman WAT?!?!?! minumum here is 1.5 Mbps DSL. I signed up for the 10Mbps option, but it wasn't availabe at my geo

mojo706

its very good especially with teh new update

Zignd

As my english is not one of the bests and I'm not a native speaker, I have to admit that I have some difficulties to understand what @CallmeV says looks like he make a massive use of slang.

Nathan Osman

@CallmeV My server has 100 Mbps though. So if I'm compiling a large project, I just do it there.

Call me V

@NathanOsman that's fair

Nathan Osman

6:19 PM

@Zignd "geo" in this case refers to geography - his current location.

jokerdino

@Zignd it's mostly the verbal language translating into written

jrg

@M̦̙̬̿̌͒a͇̯̾͒̌͜t̖͚̥͆̀͝ȩ͔͔̂̏̓o can you explain how you set this up?

because @flabricorn is looking over my shoulder and admiring your font.

M̦̙̬̿̌͒a͇̯̾͒̌͜t̖͚̥͆̀͝ȩ͔͔̂̏̓o

@jrg using firefox?

jrg

@M̦̙̬̿̌͒a͇̯̾͒̌͜t̖͚̥͆̀͝ȩ͔͔̂̏̓o ?

jokerdino

@jrg it's the great evil overlord zalgo's font

Nathan Osman

6:20 PM

@jrg Probably used Zalgoizer.

Zignd

@NathanOsman I'm not referring to "geo" and so to what he says in general.

Call me V

@Zignd WAT (jargon that you should get), The minimum speed available as a buyable DSL package here is 1.5Mbps, <1.5 doesn't even exist. I wanted 10Mbps and was ready to pay for it as it is listed as an option, but I got a not available phone-call because I'm too far from the DSLAM. Theres the expanded english...

Nathan Osman

@Zignd He's saying that the minimum speed his ISP offers is 1.5 Mbps and he applied for 10 Mbps but it wasn't available in his location.

Zignd

By the way I enjoy the way @jokerdino uses the words he have a very interesting sense of humor.

2

jokerdino

O_o

Nathan Osman

6:22 PM

@jokerdino...? A sense of humor??? WAT.

4

jokerdino

i honestly hope and pray that wasn't sarcasm beat into words.

Call me V

@NathanOsman if i could star that more than once i would

6

Firefox OS?

@NathanOsman bows

6:22 PM

yes

Zignd

@jokerdino replace "sense of humor" with "sarcasm" in my earlier text

Nathan Osman

Hands out another star.

mojo706

thank you

M̦̙̬̿̌͒a͇̯̾͒̌͜t̖͚̥͆̀͝ȩ͔͔̂̏̓o

@jrg zalgo text. It is browser dependent, so some see a bunch of boxes in a row...

Call me V

Nathan Osman

6:23 PM

@mojo706 Is that the lock screen?

jokerdino

@Zignd They can be replaceable.

mojo706

no

thats the home screen @NathanOsman

Call me V

@M̦̙̬̿̌͒a͇̯̾͒̌͜t̖͚̥͆̀͝ȩ͔͔̂̏̓o i see boxes offset from your name indented and in the middle of the next message...which is why i suggested tab and possibly some cr/lf

Zignd

@jokerdino not any more, looks like the "allowed time to edit" has passed out.

Call me V

too fast @Seth

mojo706

Zignd

@mojo706 yes

Call me V

@jokerdino i'll keep starring them until i run out...because i told people to do it that way in the installation question here and they still troll

jokerdino

Q: Setting up 802.3ad for true 2Gb/s link aggregation

I have been trying for a few days and reading many posts/resources online but am getting nowhere... I have found so many frustratingly unanswered topics such as - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1572502 or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1572502 . Basically, I have a load of sw...

dschinn1001

have almost made it to compile and install 3.9.7

Zignd

@mojo706 thanks

jokerdino

@WilliamHilsum they are out on loan

Call me V

@dschinn1001 gcc is in nathan's repo as new as it gets.

dschinn1001

only network configuration (3.9.7 stable ) is stocking while booting.

it is because of gcc ? no - kernel is set default to sid0.

Call me V

6:44 PM

you're talking kernel or gcc?

dschinn1001

kernel

sid0

Call me V

use the mainline repo. it's on google...and it basically works

mojo706

@Zignd No Problem

dschinn1001

in network-settings instead of eth0. mah-mhmh-iwanna3.9.7rrrrrmgbgrmlblll.

Call me V

never apt-get linux-source, just apt-get source linux-kernel-uname -r. for whatever reason things like luks fail if you use vanilla and the same really long key

dschinn1001

6:47 PM

yea - true - but now really not much is missing. only sid0 is the last thing to fix. when fixed I will post it as answer to my ques from last time.

Call me V

sid0 is what kind of device?

dschinn1001

i thought nvidia-current was the problem - but it was not - it was grub<2.0 - I replace dit with grub2 - then it worked with modules-install - wait I look now ...

(update-grub was somehow broken in <2.0)

Call me V

i doubt that last part...you're probably doing something wrong

dschinn1001

cannot look now - I think sid0 was fixed to atheros - and eth0 now ( in 3.9.0 ) is fixed to linkcap ethernet.

Call me V

atheros is the embodiment of well designed driver

don't crap where you eat

that being said, i have an ath9k driver that just works short of signal strength control on recent kernels

dschinn1001

6:51 PM

found workaround at gentoo to recompile with eth0 enabled in network-settings, but this did not work - so guess that I have to disable sid0 too before recompile with make (after saved new config-file for kernel)

??? okay - I dont crap now ...

Call me V

all i was saying is don't criticize the ath9k driver. it's the closest thing we have to an absolutely awesome wireless driver for linux.

it's the chipset i tell people to buy all.the.time

dschinn1001

no am not criticizing anything of it ! - misunderstood ? - only wanted to know, how to work-around a little thing to be fixed.

Call me V

understand.

dschinn1001

yep.

sorry - did I cut the topic ?!

Call me V

it's fine...don't worry about it. send me a mail with what distro version and kernel version from mainline you're using. i should have dsl unmetered in a day or two. happy to help, but there's not a lot i can do atm on metered internet

dschinn1001

6:58 PM

cannot hold with my knowledge to "2Gb link aggregation" - thats to high for me at moment.

thanks V - I will try something before, then I come back to you of course, when unclear.

Call me V

i think i made that...

dschinn1001

at moment ubuntu 12.10 with kernel 3.9.0 here ( pear OS 7.0.1 - but it is Ubuntu 12.10 - ) ... okay. need some break today evening ... lol I know how to make coffee.

Call me V

and you are ignored for pearOS

dschinn1001

like my grandma, brew it with boiled water manually ( no machine here )

no, did not ignore it - it is 12.10 ... !?

going now to coffee - break ... - no offense ! ;-)

Call me V

if you're not using mainline, pay me or don't ask

where you live ? which country ? I send you 5 Euro for coffee !

or 10 Euro for coffee.

Oli

@WilliamHilsum After a few years on the site you pick up random knowledge like that.

William Hilsum

@Oli Just annoys me... I need to know all this... been reading books, but, in the same way as I tell people most books about Windows just don't cover experience... I am finding the same here

I will remember that, but, just annoying (for me and others)/I hate asking for help all the time!

Oli

That's one of the great things about a site like Ask Ubuntu (as I'm sure you find on SU) - you're exposed to a crazy array of problems that you'll and helping people through them teaches you stuff about the systems that a book just wouldn't bother with.

A side effect is I can't remember what I had for dinner yesterday but hey, who needs to remember things like that when you can remember all the flags for tar?! (That's a lie - nobody can remember how to tar without at least one Google)

I don't know what's worse--the fact that after 15 years of using tar I still can't keep the flags straight, or that after 15 years of technological advancement I'm still mucking with tar flags that were 15 years old when I started.
