| 00:22.37 | Leeds | woo, payday |
| 00:23.02 | z00dax | hi everyone |
| 00:23.09 | Leeds | morning z00dax, all |
| 00:23.26 | z00dax | morning Leeds |
| 00:24.57 | Leeds | managed to fall asleep last night with the lights on, the curtains open, and the computer on |
| 00:55.15 | Leeds | today feels like a good day |
| 00:58.29 | Leeds | if for no other reason than it's payday, it's the weekend, and it's warm and sunny outside :-) |
| 01:03.49 | z00dax | its freezing cold here |
| 01:04.01 | z00dax | dcc send some sunshine and warm weather |
| 01:06.39 | z00dax | lol |
| 01:06.52 | z00dax | got the Sunshine, thanks |
| 01:07.03 | Leeds | oh, and I discovered this week that gnu tar now seems to handle both gzipped and bzip2ed tarballs without a decompression flag |
| 01:07.20 | z00dax | is that a good thing ? |
| 01:07.24 | Leeds | yes |
| 01:07.43 | z00dax | I dont mind passing in a z or a j flag |
| 01:07.48 | Leeds | means you can just do tar x(v)f and have it work without having to pick z or j depending on the file |
| 01:08.31 | Leeds | easier for muscle memory :-) |
| 01:08.36 | z00dax | humm.. cool, so as long as there is a .tar. in the name, it will handle it |
| 01:08.51 | z00dax | or tgz and such |
| 01:09.13 | Leeds | it shouldn't care about the filename, really |
| 01:10.03 | Leeds | tar, bzip2 and gzip have well-defined magic numbers |
| 01:10.55 | z00dax | true |
| 01:11.19 | Leeds | actually, looks like tarballs don't have magic numbers |
| 01:11.25 | Leeds | at least not at tht top |
| 01:12.53 | Leeds | ah, the magic number is at byte 257 |
| 01:13.53 | Leeds | Monorail! |

| 13:23.58 | Leeds | a episode from last year has a scene in a Chinese embassy... but no Chinese embassy would have a map on the wall with Taiwan drawn in a different colour from the mainland, and they probably wouldn't have the Hong Kong flag flying alongside the national flag |
| 13:25.05 | Leeds | and I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not that I noticed it :-) |

| 15:43.12 | mozrat | g'afternoon JAV |
| 15:50.07 | JAV | it's not a good idea to remove a keyboard from a server without monitor and then reboot it |
| 15:50.52 | JAV | it looks like it was all the night waiting for F1 being pressed |
| 15:51.12 | Cope | grr |
| 15:52.36 | mozrat | annoying |
| 15:52.41 | mozrat | major design fault really |
| 15:52.54 | mozrat | This is why I love HP servers :) |
| 15:53.12 | mozrat | and integrated lights out cards so you can see what the BIOS is doing remotely |
| 15:53.48 | stephen | *cough*, HP kit will happily sit there indefinitely waiting for F1 to be pressed, though I think you can disable it |
| 15:53.57 | stephen | iLO rocks though :) |
| 15:54.26 | mozrat | stephen: they don't normally AFAIK |
| 15:54.51 | Cope | busybox++ |
| 15:55.00 | z00dax | dont most PC bios's these days have that 'halt on error: all / non / keyboard + video ' thing ? |
| 15:55.02 | stephen | they will if there's a hardware problem, like missing a disk from a RAID array |
| 15:55.20 | z00dax | serial console to the machine sitting next to this one :) |
| 15:55.27 | mozrat | stephen: ah, right. Fair enough. A missing keyboard shouldn't matter though |
| 15:55.32 | stephen | indeed not |
| 16:01.54 | JAV | It's a Compaq, it had always keyboard and monitor (3 years ago) so I didn't check bios options for this matter. Tonight I had a *problem* involving water+keyboard and I take it from the server |
| 16:08.03 | JAV | yes, It was a very long night |
