<0> yup
<1> yes
<2> ok then
<0> or.. "there are 10 kinds of people. those that understand binary, those that don't understand binary, and those that don't care"
<1> heh
<3> jblack, much better!
<0> You are wrong, of course.
<0> you got tricked by the boolean nature of the statement.
<0> Humans don't count that way. We don't say there are one choices. We say there are two choices.
<3> how do you figure?
<0> You can chose one or the other. You have two choices.
<3> Yea, and in bin that is a single digit
<4> no.... if you have 0 choices, you have bin(0) choices.
<4> If you have 1 choice, you have bin(1) choice.
<4> If you have 2 choices, you have bin(10) choices.
<0> 1 choice is not a choice at all.
<3> mmmm
<4> well... yeah...
<0> You can go right, you can go left, or you can stop.
<4> that's 11 choices. ;)
<0> I.E. "I'm walking. I have two choices. I can go right or left"
<0> If you stop, you haven't made a choice at all.
<4> "if you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice." ;)
<4> oh my god... i'm quoting RUSH!
<4> someone kill me now.
<3> its not being used in a boolean natrue (at least not the way i read it)
<0> If you like slush puppies then can add a dozen ice cubes and a pair of puppies in a blender for 30 seconds.
<3> its being used as a short unsigned object
<0> (Nobody can argue with a non-sequitor)
<3> I duno, I see lots of people do it, its fun too
<5> simmy: I didn't get a chance to read it all, but did you say you need a backup MX running postfix?
<1> I need to start writing a spreadsheet
<4> p3nguin : noep... I have a backup MX... i'm going to get a new server up and running... and I'm going to use postfix on it, I think.
<5> Oh alright.
<5> I'd be happy to help if you don't know about postfix config.
<6> hola
<5> There's only one little part I don't understand with the postfix... that's virtual mailboxes.
<6> disculpen...como se llama el programa para instalar programas de windows wn linux???
<5> I have them configured, I can send mail to the virtual mailbox, it arrives safely...
<5> But I have no clue how to login and retrieve it.
<6> alo
<5> I know I have to make users with SASL, but that's the part I don't know about.
<5> Any apache web server expert here?
<5> Can someone tell me what ``SSLP***PhraseDialog exec:/path/to/program'' means when talking about overriding p***phrases for certificates? It says path to program... What program?
<7> identity crisis ?"
<4> nope... 24 hours ago, I'd never used telnet to communicate directly with an IRC server... I'm making sure I understand how this stuff works to aide me in programming a bot.
<4> I JUSt set up another channel to test this stuff in so you shouldn't see/hear much from me as far as testing goes.
<7> doesn't bother me... might end up alittle interesting even
<8> how do you untar a bz2?
<5> bzip2 is not tar.
<8> it's a .tar.bz2
<5> You don't untar a bz2 file... you bunzip2 it.
<5> In that case...
<5> If it is a bzip2 tar archive, you can simply tar jxvf file.tar.bz2
<5> Or the old way: bunzip2 file.tar.bz2|tar jxf -
<5> The first way filters it through bzip2 for you.
<8> thanks
<5> No problem.
<5> pythagoras: Consider using man pages for help on that type of question.
<8> the man pages don't make it clear how to do it. it would be nice if tar just figured out what to do based on filetype
<5> You can write a script to do that.
<8> i could if i knew how to write scripts
<5> Oh. Let me see what I can come up with for you within a few minutes.
<8> i suppose i'll learn to write scripts over the summer. know any good resources for that?
<8> i bet wiki has good info
<5> Dave Taylor has a couple of beginnger level books from the No Starch Press.
<5> How do I return 2 thru 4 with awk, awk '{ print $2-$4 }' ?
<9> Mulder5: you still here man?
<10> Calidan, yeah man. what's up
<9> Mulder5: the chan you made +i :)
<9> heh
<10> which one?
<10> oh
<10> that one
<10> 1 tick
<9> lol - yeah
<8> is $2$3$4 not good enough?
<8> you could always do a for loop if you need to
<0> How do I get a list of +Is?
<11> /mode #linux +I
<0> So services doesn't save it?
<11> <sigh> well... taht didn't work.
<5> pythagoras: I messed around with some if statements to get you want you wanted. Let me post the script on the net for you to have a look.
<5> It's very primitive, but I'm not advanced in shell scripting.
<8> thanks
<4> sigh....
<4> SOME HOW this stupid bot isn't doing its "on join" checks until right before it quits a channel.
<9> so it doesnt just trigger on the msg sent to it?
<5> pythagoras: http://linux.virtualaddiction.net/scripts/tarx.txt
<4> not anymore... trying to add its first bot check to it.
<9> I see youve got it changing nick? or are there 2 of them that alternate
<12> nope... still isn't doing it.
<9> weird
<12> HRM.... or maybe it is....
<12> it's not showing any output until it quits...
<9> ah
<12> damnit... I was hoping I could have it output stuff to the screen AS it was happening so I could debug easier.
<9> MsgMeForAKickBan: what language is it coded in - script ot C
<9> or ??
<4> perl
<9> nod
<4> figured it was as good a project as any to finally learn perl. :)
<9> true
<4> it's my first structured language in.... 6 yeras or so.
<9> heh
<4> (hacking in bash doesn't count)
<9> well - I wrote an irc bot framework I had on freshmeat for a while - can post it/send it sometime if you're interested *shrug*
<9> written in C
<4> thanks, but no thanks.
<9> should really put it back on freshmeat sometime - once I get some stable hosting for it again :)
<9> simmy: np
<4> hrm... I COULD just have the bot privmsg the channel and use THAT for debugging (only in a non#linux channel, that is...
<9> that may give you output as it happens
<4> I'd HOPE so.... :)
<9> :)
<9> anyway - think Im going to bail for a while :\ talk to you all later
<4> later, calidan.
<13> cigaro time!!!111eleven
<4> holy ****..
<4> i made 100G in WoW in the last 72 hours.
<4> I LOVe when people under-price stuff in the auction house. :)
<11> it's running the subroutines... just not doing what I expected 'em to.
<14> evening guys
<0> hi mouju
<14> hey man
<14> evening
<15> dir
<0> linuxnewbie: Actually, its ls
<13> hi jblack
<15> lol
<13> linuxnewbie, et al
<1> finally
<13> gn _popeye_
<16> There's this magazine in India.. which you could say "popularised" linux in india by giving our Redhat CDs with their issues in 1995 and all... they tke redhat, tweak it a bit. their form of tweaking is aliasing ls to dir in /etc/profile or bashrc
<15> its daytime here...why should i go sleep ?
<15> somewhere around the corner of the world
<15> ok heres a newbie question ... i really want to hide a hidden file from being shown even using show hidden file..how do we kept that .file hidden ? some annoying user delete lot of .files
<17> heh
<15> ?
<18> hid files, from user, try chown command
<15> chown root:user .file ?
<15> it didnt work
<17> on ext3 it's probably not possible
<17> there *might* be some acl thing that letsyou do that
<17> but probablynot
<19> how can i take some space from my home partition and resize another partition?
<15> how do we check our kind of fat system ?
<17> and if there are no vanilla solutions you'll need to find/create a hack to do the hiding yourself
