dam it ,beaver. Snow's picking up again

@TheWanderer college ? maybe not, depends on a school. But definitely a cool thing to put on resume if you ever wanna apply for Android dev job

I wish my indicators could bring me a job

I should also look into Android development type of stuff

Thomas Ward

@NathanOsman well. I got my own mail server now, fully functional.

Kaz Wolfe

\o/

I hereby declare @ThomasWard a real sysadmin.

Thomas Ward

SMTP (PostFix) + IMAP (DoveCot) + Amavis + SpamAssassin + SPF checks + DKIM (OpenDKIM) + Antivirus Scanning (Avast, 30d trial of their server antivirus software for linux, because ClamAV ate the memory completely)

And it works. Gonna try and write up a guide lol.

Nathan Osman

@ThomasWard Looks similar to mine, good job. I have SPF checks enabled but they don't do anything other than set a header on incoming messages. I wrote a plugin for Roundcube that displays the value of the header in a user-friendly way.

Kaz Wolfe

also similar to mine, but i use mysql for user management :)

(and I check DKIM and DMARC)

Thomas Ward

23:19

@NathanOsman Yeah, well, Postfix has the SPF policy installed and configured, Amavis does DKIM verify inbound, and for all outbound messages through PostFix for the domain on the mail server PostFix DKIM signs for valid DKIM enabled domains.

And I have DMARC records published too, with a third-party forensic analysis tool

so yay!

Nathan Osman

That's pretty good.

Thomas Ward

@NathanOsman well, it's way crazy but it should work. And the antivirus part is working too, though it's $300 for 3-years after the 30 days.

since their crap isn't free

lightweight most definitely.

but not free.

Nathan Osman

Well, if you need it, then you need it :D

Dammit Colorado . . . It was sunny a few hours back. Now back to snowstorm.

@ByteCommander Thinking back you are correct. Good memory!

TheWanderer

how do I regex?

TextColor="*" doesn't work

Sergiy Kolodyazhnyy

Regex where ? And what are you trying to achieve ?

TheWanderer

oh .*

nvm sergiy wergiy

Sergiy Kolodyazhnyy

Minding, minding a lot

minding intensifies

Kaz Wolfe

@TheWanderer That's almost as bad as calling @ThomasWard Tommy.

TheWanderer

23:37

Tommy Wommy?

Kaz Wolfe

uh oh

enjoy ur ban k3d

TheWanderer

@TommyWommy

Kaz Wolfe

he ragequit

TheWanderer

rip

WinEunuuchs2Unix

can I repurpose RIP for Relax In Paradise?.... It would be nice to do that sigh

Kaz Wolfe

23:41

You can not.

WinEunuuchs2Unix

darn.

Kaz Wolfe

well you can but nobody else will follow suit

WinEunuuchs2Unix

I'll save my repurposing for things more significant... I really don't care about paradise today.

I'm procrastinating doing doc on next Q&A

This morning I started researching figlet and toilet for the next coding project instead of writing doc :(

like who in their right minds calls their app "toilet" and why on earth would they use "gay" as a parameter to give rainbow colors?...LOL

Kaz Wolfe

People with a sense of humor.

WinEunuuchs2Unix

update-alternatives: using /usr/bin/figlet-toilet to provide /usr/bin/figlet (figlet) in auto mode

I guess I need to install figlet to use toilet?

perhaps because of the fonts.

Kaz Wolfe

23:49

toilet is new figlet.

WinEunuuchs2Unix

update-alternatives: using /usr/bin/figlet-figlet to provide /usr/bin/figlet (figlet) in auto mode

^^ now I get that when I install figlet

Kaz Wolfe

uninstall figlet and just use toilet.

WinEunuuchs2Unix

Doesn't matter I have lots of disk space... like 10 GB free on 30 GB partition.

Kaz Wolfe

no, toilet replaces figlet.

figlet has nothing toilet doesn't have.

DESCRIPTION
       TOIlet prints text using large characters made of smaller characters. It is similar in many ways to FIGlet with additional features such as Unicode handling, colour fonts, filters and various
       export formats.

WinEunuuchs2Unix

lots of linux news sites show both of them in their articles... I'll keep both of them installed for now.

Kaz Wolfe

23:51

they're the exact same (well, toilet is figlet, not the other way around).

[redacted]

WinEunuuchs2Unix

I'll be using toilet in my code because I want the colour options

$ date +%r | toilet

  mmmm  mmmmm         mmmmm   mmmm         mmm     mmmm         mmmmm  m    m
 m"  "m #             #      "   "#          #    #    #        #   "# ##  ##
 #  m # """"mm   #    """"mm   mmm"   #      #    "mmmm"        #mmm#" # ## #
 #    #      #             #     "#          #    #   "#        #      # "" #
  #mm#  "mmm#"   #    "mmm#" "mmm#"   #    mm#mm  "#mmm"        #      #    #

^^^ needs some work...LOL

Kaz Wolfe

install toilet-fonts if you want fonts.

Sergiy Kolodyazhnyy

Fuuuuuuuuuuuu

Kaz Wolfe

@SergiyKolodyazhnyy Break your board?

WinEunuuchs2Unix

$ echo "Fuuu" | toilet

 mmmmmm
 #      m   m  m   m  m   m
 #mmmmm #   #  #   #  #   #
 #      #   #  #   #  #   #
 #      "mm"#  "mm"#  "mm"#

Sergiy Kolodyazhnyy

I just realized I wrote my 7-segment design in gate-level design, while I should have been doing the data-flow model

I have working code, it's just not written using required "model"

Welp, I've an hour to rewrite the code . . .
