| jfw: | diana_coman, your blog front page renders but articles all seem to be 404, e.g. http://ossasepia.com/2019/11/14/amito-data-centre-in-reading-uk/ | [00:25] |
| jfw: | mod_rewrite config I'd guess. | [00:25] |
| whaack: | diana_coman: EOD report - Writing the backup scripts took a bit of time because I had to pay a lot of unix debt along the way. I have the basic design you laid out here with steps a,b,c. done. I still have some questions about how the file's permissions + group + owner are copied over that I will investigate later. I need to make projections as t | [02:00] |
| whaack: | o how long before my hard drive fills up, and also exactly what it is on my local computer I want to save. Lastly, I need to do a dry run of recovering my blog to make sure everything is in order. | [02:00] |
| whaack: | diana_coman: As for the '2h of planning for the hardware store / listing comp parts' i didn't get to do that w/ a specific block of time. But I did make progress on that front earlier in the day w/ speaking to the carpenter + the figuring out the ssd for my comp. Continuing work on this is my first priority for tomorrow morning before I head to town. | [02:18] |
| diana_coman: | http://ossasepia.com/2020/04/21/ossasepia-logs-for-21-Nov-2019#1010996 - should be fixed now, thanks! | [03:39] |

| diana_coman: | http://ossasepia.com/2020/04/21/ossasepia-logs-for-21-Nov-2019#1010999 - good idea | [03:41] |

| diana_coman: | hello Jeff78 | [03:41] |
| diana_coman: | ask in here Jeff78 | [03:43] |
| Jeff78: | Sure | [03:43] |
| Jeff78: | Can you tell me about to goal of ossasepia. and the platform on ossasepia.com? | [03:44] |
| diana_coman: | Jeff78: this chan is basically the forum/discussion place/direct interaction for my YH (http://younghands.club/) project | [03:45] |
| diana_coman: | you can read the story on YH starting with http://ossasepia.com/2019/07/03/growing-young-hands/ (do note that you might need the IP directly for my blog 85.25.134.66 ) | [03:46] |
| diana_coman: | Jeff78: as to platform, what do you mean? ossasepia.com simply runs a customised version of wordpress really | [03:47] |
| diana_coman: | (as does younghands.club for that matter) | [03:47] |
| diana_coman: | Jeff78: how did you find this place? | [03:47] |
| Jeff78: | I've indeed read the part on younghandsclub. It difficult for me to understand though. | [03:47] |
| diana_coman: | Jeff78: there is a lot to it; but just ask further then; what are you stuck on? | [03:48] |
| Jeff78: | I will start of with reading the article here | [03:49] |
| Jeff78: | http://ossasepia.com/2019/07/03/growing-young-hands/ | [03:49] |
| Jeff78: | The reason I'm interested in your project is because I saw the domain eventix.de is directed to your project. I've started my own business recently after I graduated. To take it of the ground in germany I would be in need of the domain that is now pointing to your website. Would you be open to an offer from my side? | [03:50] |
| Jeff78: | If you actually using it thats fine too. I'll have to find another name haha ;) | [03:50] |
| diana_coman: | Jeff78: you might want to have a look at what others figured out too and/or the road they took to here, eg on their blogs | [03:51] |
| diana_coman: | eventix.de ? no idea | [03:51] |
| diana_coman: | lolz; what is this project about? | [03:52] |
| Jeff78: | Hahaha, did you see the redirect? | [03:52] |
| diana_coman: | Jeff78: I just switched IPs recently so it's possibly an old record somewhere | [03:52] |
| diana_coman: | Jeff78: I tend to ignore DNS and simply set the IPs in hosts file so not exactly bothered with all that | [03:53] |
| Jeff78: | Hmm that could be it. I was amazed because it didn't ooint anywhere a few weeks ago | [03:53] |
| Jeff78: | If people know where to find you IPs are fine haha :) | [03:53] |
| diana_coman: | Jeff78: so what's the project you are working on ? | [03:53] |
| diana_coman: | well yes, the people around here know and do; they are quite...knowing, like that. It's a bit the whole point around here, you know | [03:54] |
| Jeff78: | We're developing a ticket solution for cultural organisations to be able to sell their tickets without having to deal with high fees from companies such as ticketmaster. | [03:54] |
| Jeff78: | So I've had an interest in tracking the domain owner, but the whois records are set to anonymous | [03:55] |
| Jeff78: | So you're my only lead lol | [03:55] |
| diana_coman: | Jeff78: heh, the technical solution exists already really; there's a bot around those parts that does invoicing and payments and all that | [03:55] |
| Jeff78: | I know we're not the only one, but we aim to be the only free one :p | [03:55] |
| diana_coman: | to not have to pay high fees to ticketmaster and other similar slave-masters (because that's what they are), it's the people in those organisations you need to develop, not technical solutions | [03:56] |
| diana_coman: | they are in that poor situation because they don't know better, not because they don't have more tools really | [03:56] |
| Jeff78: | Oh definetely the technical solution is never the only part. You need to educate people. | [03:57] |
| diana_coman: | Jeff78: the bot here is free, you know? but yes, it's free *not for anyone* and if you don't mind me saying it, the "free for everyone" approach is an extremely poor choice. | [03:58] |
| Jeff78: | Do you have any idea of what was hosted on the ip before? Maybe that will give me a lead to the owner of the domain. | [03:58] |
| diana_coman: | Jeff78: trouble is: what do you plan to educate them about/on? | [03:58] |
| diana_coman: | Jeff78: I have no idea but apparently that eventix thing was hosted there before,no? | [03:59] |
| Jeff78: | uhm, probably just pointed here. | [03:59] |
| Jeff78: | There was never really a website | [03:59] |
| Jeff78: | Its just some domain squatter. | [03:59] |
| diana_coman: | well, I don't mind it,lolz. | [04:00] |
| Jeff78: | But the ip probably hosted more websites by the same owner | [04:00] |
| Jeff78: | Thanks for your help anyway | [04:00] |
| Jeff78: | And for your interest in what im working on. | [04:00] |
| diana_coman: | no problem; maybe find some time and read around a bit, you might find more than you came asking for :D | [04:01] |
| diana_coman: | that's what I do around here: taking an interest in who people are and what they are working on; it reportedly... helps them. | [04:01] |
| dorion_road: | waves from vermont. | [10:58] |
| diana_coman: | that's a long wave! good to see you made it though. | [11:06] |
| dorion_road: | diana_coman thanks. fog cancelled the afternoon flight from boston, ended up renting a driver to make the ~4 hour drive instead. got in later, but had had a nice conversation on the drive with a fellow traveler and made a connection so it worked out. | [11:11] |
| dorion_road: | to get caught up on log/blog reading. | [11:13] |
| dorion_road: | also, there's snow on the ground here, so that was nice to arrive to :) | [11:13] |
| diana_coman: | enjoy! | [11:14] |
| whaack: | diana_coman: good morning. Is there a specific type of thermal paste I should buy? Is the arctic mx4 an acceptable option? I am planning to get 2 4gram tubes of these. | [12:13] |
| BingoBoingo: | whaack: That's probably a fine choice. Artic silver also probably a fine choice, but it is electrically conductive so gotta be very careful where it goes. When I do laptop heatsinks I usually use one of the artic ceramic pastes. | [12:35] |
| whaack: | BingoBoingo: Cool, I will use the mx-4 then and be very careful where it goes regardless. | [12:39] |
| BingoBoingo: | More tubes of smaller size is better. You'll be using very little of it infrequently, so the next time you want to apply thermal grease it may be better to open the second tube instead of using the first again. I base this around the assumption thermal grease is a sort of glue and "bottle open time" is the enemy of shelf life. | [12:39] |
| diana_coman: | whaack: it's fine,yes; but buy small tubes, you won't need a ton for one single computer. | [12:40] |
| diana_coman: | ah, BingoBoingo already said it, huh; thank you BingoBoingo ! | [12:40] |
| BingoBoingo: | The most important thing is following the instructions. They vary by thermal grease. | [12:40] |
| BingoBoingo: | diana_coman: You're welcome. | [12:41] |
| whaack: | alright, I will get 4x 2g tubes. | [12:45] |
| whaack: | (the smallest size I see available on amazon) | [12:46] |
| jfw: | waves but will be pretty well tied up today. | [15:03] |
| diana_coman: | no worries. | [15:04] |
| jfw: | I look forward to your feedback on today's article and any direction for tomorrow's; a similar treatment of the WoT series would be my assumption. | [15:07] |
| diana_coman: | jfw: for tomorrow pick better something from your original plan http://fixpoint.welshcomputing.com/2019/planned-articles-as-of-october-2019/?b=something&e=#select | [18:50] |
| diana_coman: | and do write it in the morning please. | [18:51] |
