<0> Oh... and this is true: I know this girl, 22, who got pregnant and had a kid and her parents were rip-**** that she got pregnant without getting married first. Now, get this: this girl's mom is only 37. Do the math. :-/
<1> Well, maybe they were pissed because they didn't want her to make the same mistakes
<1> I can understand that
<1> unfortunately, kids do not often learn from their parents' mistake
<0> yeah, I can too, but it's their holier-than-thou attitude that makes me wanna puke.
<0> Dad wanted to accuse her boyfriend of rape.
<2> ... at 22.
<0> when it's plainly obvious that by having a kid at 15, he was guilty of statutory rape.
<0> I mean, I can understand him caring about his daughter and all that but, really, he needs a big steaming cup of STFU.

<0> WOW
<0> About ****ing Time
<3> Ka-bar: don't you know you shouldn't crosspost? ;) oh wait, this isn't usenet :P
<0> heh
<4> heya, looking for a media player that has playlist and library views, so that I can queue up songs from the library without having to switch views or interrupt the currently playing song.



<3> Marupa: plenty available, I guess amarok might be a good one
<5> is there anyway to timeout inside a bash script?
<0> Ariya: depends on what you mean by that
<5> timeout a command
<3> Ariya: sure. "man wait" / "man bash".
<4> Hmmm, amarok doesn't like to show all my MP3s at once, and xmms doesn't allow me to pause the music while I have the queuer up.
<5> that is if a command doesn't return say after 5 secs then to return error
<3> Marupa: 'all at once' ? Ofcourse it will if you set it up properly.
<0> Marupa: they're open source. modify one of them to your liking. :)
<4> I'm just trying to make it easier on me, since I'm a digital dj.
<0> snerk
<6> Marupa: that's fun here - in the uk you must get a licence to be a digital dj, are not allowed to own more than 6,000 songs, and must submit to inspection of your machines and records at any time....
<0> DaveHowe: In the UK you have to have a license to use a TV, ffs. . .
<2> are you serious?
<2> that makes me lol.
<6> its great what record industry lobbists can get away with in a government that has no fair-use law and doesn't understand technology
<6> Ka-bar: to *own* a tv. it doesn't matter if you use it or not
<0> ah
<0> even worse
<6> Ka-bar: or tuner card for a pc. or a vcr, with or without a tv attached
<5> Lion-O: wait does not take input
<3> Ariya: it doesn't have to.
<2> LOL, no ****? you need a licence to own a TV?
<7> nnnnnnngh. I have a burning desire to hear an album I have, but can't get to
<4> so, anyone know of an app that could do what I need to do?
<5> Lion-O: well I want to timeout after some amount of time
<3> Ariya: ....
<3> Ariya: so how about you wait for a while, check if the process is still running and if so kill it ?
<5> Lion-O: oh you mean 'sleep'?
<0> Hmmm... it's been a looooong time since I've used 'expect', but doesn't it have the ability to do that?
<3> Ariya: thats also an option, no idea what bash' offers for that from mind.
<3> afaik its 'wait' though
<2> wait just waits for a pid or jobspec to complete
<2> it's if you want to spawn something off in the background, do a bunch of ****, then wait for it to finish before doing other ****.
<3> bhab: bingo. So if you spawn that in the background... Anyway, plenty of ways to do this.
<0> hmmm... is there a way to schedule a SIGALRM in the shell that can be caught with a trap statement?
<2> sure
<2> (sleep $duration; kill -ALRM $$) &; # do ****; wait %1
<2> and, of course, trap ALRM "# do ****" ;
<0> right. d'oh.
<2> i know there's a variable for the last job put in the background, too... you will ***uredly want to use that instead of %1, but I can't remember what the variable is off the top of my head.
<5> is there anyway to bracket a command in a timeout function in bash?
<3> Ariya: huh ?
<5> bhab what does that code do?
<3> Ariya: pay some attention to the channel I'd say.
<2> schedules a SIGALRM in the shell which is caught by a trap statement.
<2> :D
<2> (to mostly reiterate what Ka-bar said)
<5> the sleep function is in the trap?
<2> no, the sleep command acts as a scheduler
<0> er, no. the sleep, followed by the kill (which sends the SIGALRM) run in a subshell. When the timer expires, the alarm is sent, causing the contents of the trap statement to run.
<5> so the sleep command is allways called?
<5> ohoh ic
<3> English please.
<5> problem is, if I run that in a loop its going to spawn a lot of subshells
<0> The '(sleep 10 ; do something) &' construct puts that command sequence in a subshell which runs concurrently with the main shell.
<0> so you set the timer and continue on with what you were doing. When the timer expires, you get interrupted and the trap code runs.
<0> Ariya: well, yes, that could be a problem, unless you are doing things one at a time and cleaning up after yourself each time through the loop.
<5> so at the bottom of the loop, kill the sleep command?



<0> you could do that, or you could wait for it.
<8> Anybody here that can please help me and give me the IP of a working DNS?
<9> hmm good, a USB based KVM now, no more PS/2 crappiness
<8> My ISPs DNS just went down.
<5> that would take to long :)
<0> NumeroUno: you asked google first, RIGHT?
<8> I cant ask google.
<3> NumeroUno: bull
<5> NumeroUno: how can you irc?
<8> google wont resolve without my DNS.
<0> so how did you get here?
<3> NumeroUno: 1) This has nothing to do with Linux. 2) Get real.
<8> I was connected to IRC before the DNS went down.
<5> google.com has address 64.233.187.99
<3> NumeroUno: Most ISP's have multiple DNS servers btw. If one goes down use the second.
<0> NumeroUno: DynDNS offers a fast, reliable recursive DNS service for people like yourself whose ISPs ****. It's not free, but it works and is definitely worth it.
<8> They both seem to be down,.
<0> NumeroUno: http://64.233.167.99/
<8> Thank you for that.
<8> But it doesnt help me much since I cant click on the search results.
<8> Hmm.. Perhaps if I use googles cached pages.
<10> Ka-bar: Nice to know you still recommend dyndns :)
<0> Falchion: I just like to send cluebies your way since I know you love them so much. :)
<10> heh
<8> Thanks for your help. =)
<10> Meh. Gotta love sharing your neighbor's cable TV and having them forget to pay the bill. Meh
<7> Falchion, heh
<5> problem with that code is it slows down my loop
<11> nameserver 193.201.201.18
<5> i don't know why if the sleep command is running as a background proc
<12> Hi, are there any good "Half-Life"-like games under Linux that one would suggest me to play?
<11> Ariya, how are you measuring the slow down?
<13> anyone here try to mount a SCO openserver 5 partition on linux?
<10> Zoffix: Sure. Halflife.
<10> http://lhl.linuxgames.com/
<5> dig_shot: the trap is always being called for some reason
<12> Falchion, heh... is it the same as the Windows version? Because I already played it
<5> dig_shot: because without the code it runs faster?
<10> Zoffix: Go google linux games and have fun.
<12> Falchion, might as well... just didn't want to go through a hundred of downloads... wanted an opinion about what is a really good 3D FPS for linux
<10> Opinions are like ***holes. Everyone has them, they all stink and they prove that people are full of ****.
<11> do you have that on hot key Falchion?
<12> Falchion, ahha... better write it down lol
<10> dig_shot: I don't have anything on hot key.
<14> hi i have a routing problem
<3> xs4me: good for you.
<10> xs4me: See a doctor.
<14> i installed pptpd on a redhat 7.3 box and i can't make it work
<3> xs4me: Trying to connect to the Internet?
<14> i can connect to the box but i can't ping, browse the internet
<10> xs4me: That ****s. Go read the manual.
<14> lol
<3> xs4me: be glad. Using RH7.3 for Internet access is UTTERLY stupid.
<15> why does rsync have to be such a bastard to use? :(
<14> why is that Lion-O ?
<5> $! the PID of the last job put in the background
<1> That's a dumb question
<10> mike2: It's not, once you wine and dine it. It's a gentle creature so you can't be too rough. No kissing on the first date,
<3> xs4me: because its approx. 7 - 8 years old and totally unmaintained. So full of bugs and exploits.
<3> xs4me: get a more modern distribution and try again.
<12> xs4me, why don't install something newer?
<14> ok, i got your point, but still, this doesn't solve my problem
<15> Falchion, I don't want to kiss, I want much more than that on the first date, I want to bend it to my every whim and have it doing full weekly rolled incremental backups
<10> xs4me: basically putting a TH 7.3 box on the internet is like being a blond at a bar and bringing your own roofie.
<10> mike2: Ohhhhh... You like it rough!
<15> Falchion, damn straight
<10> heh
<14> so, anyone knows how to do this or not ?
<5> so, how do I kill all of those sleep subshells?
<3> xs4me: you're a bit dumb huh ?
<2> rsync is rad.
<15> I hate tar and ftp, seems kinda pointless with tools like rsync
