[11:35] * Calum2 (Mibbit@mib-6373825A.cable.virginm.net) has joined #glitchpc
[11:36]<+camerongray> Hey Calum2
[11:36]<Immental1200> I was busy when he sent it, channel was empty when I joined :/
[11:36]<Calum2> Does anyone know if there's something weird going on? I can't connect as Calum tonight
[11:36]<+camerongray> Not that I've seen
[11:36]<Calum2> how odd
[11:36]<Calum2> apparently Calum is connected...
[11:36]<+camerongray> But your hostname is virginm.net rather than virginmedia
[11:37]<Calum2> so it is
[11:37]<Calum2> hmm
[11:37]<+camerongray> Can't you use /ghots
[11:37]<Immental1200> Ghosty time
[11:37]<+camerongray> /ghost*
[11:37]<Calum2> I was about to quickly Google for that heh
[11:37]<Immental1200> Damn you ... Two seconds earlier

[11:38]<@Calum> there we go
[11:38]<+camerongray> yay
[11:41]<@Calum> so painful setting up a laptop with a HDD...how did people manage before SSDs were invented
[11:44]<+camerongray> lol! yEah
[12:15]<Immental1200> I did 5 server installs today. Waiting was so boring.
[12:15]<@Calum> Yeah, waiting is the boring part
[12:16]<Immental1200> Worst part was it was 5 installs on Hyper-V on the same server... at pretty much the same time, read / write speeds took a dump.
[12:16]<@Calum> ah yeah
[12:16]<Immental1200> It only had like RAID 5 I think
[12:17]<@Calum> SSDs for everyone, that should be a campaign. It would reduce deaths due to frustration and anger
[12:17]<Immental1200> And the best bit, is that it's just the test server... and won't live to see 2014 in it's current setup.
[12:17]<@Calum> charities could give them out like they currently give out free glasses and things
[12:17]<Immental1200> Which idiots would donate to them C:
[12:18]<@Calum> people donate to anything
[12:18]<@jacky> idiots?
[12:18]<@jacky> did somebody say idiots?
[12:18]<@jacky> oh... wrong channel
[12:18]<Immental1200> What's +h
[12:18]<@Calum> hehehe
[12:18]<@jacky> +huff-n-puff
[12:18]<Immental1200> I can't be bothered to google channel modes
[12:18]<Immental1200> If you wanna tell me, it saves CTRL T
[12:19]<@Calum> it's halfop, I didn't actually set it
[12:19]<Immental1200> Oh.
[12:19]<@Calum> especially as I already have admin and op.
[12:19]<@Calum> ctrl + t = new tab
[12:19]<@jacky> Calum: that reminds me... when are you going to send in this month's $5 ?
[12:20]<@jacky> ok on new tab
[12:20]<@Calum> for op licensing fees?
[12:20]<@jacky> yep
[12:20]<Immental1200> op licensing?
[12:20]<@jacky> well... $2 is just to keep from getting kicked....
[12:20]<@Calum> I think camerongray has me covered
[12:20]<@jacky> Oh
[12:21]<@jacky> I'll check with him
[12:21]<+camerongray> My ears are burning
[12:21]<@jacky> I thought it was always cold there
[12:21]<+camerongray> hehe
[12:22]<@jacky> Immental1200: yes. For $5 you can be an op. for another $10, you can have everybody else de-op's
[12:22]<Immental1200> Wait what
[12:22]<@jacky> (oh... I wish BC was here... hehehehe)
[12:22]<Immental1200> But he's ... admin
[12:22]<@jacky> (He can lay on the BS even better than I can)
[12:22]<Immental1200> Admin > Op
[12:22]<Immental1200> So
[12:22]<Immental1200> You no make sense
[12:22]<+camerongray> Finally submitted my Computer Systems coursework :P
[12:22]<Immental1200> He should be taxing you
[12:23]<+camerongray> MIPS Assembly Code :D So much fun
[12:23]<@jacky> Immental1200: want to see me huff-n-puff ?
[12:23]<@jacky> camerongray: your serious-ness is interrupting out utter idiocy. How dare you!
[12:23]<+camerongray> haha
[12:24]<@jacky> heh
[12:24]<+camerongray> Nothing more fun than spending days writing a simple program because you have to use Assembly
[12:24]<+camerongray> Which of course has so many real world uses...
[12:24]<@jacky> exercise for the brain
[12:25]<+camerongray> Ruined our brains :P
[12:25]<@jacky> yours has a limit on use?
[12:25]<+camerongray> During one late night session we started just wheeling around the lab on chairs
[12:25]<@jacky> (holding head in hands).... and YOU are the next generation that is supposed to save our world??
[12:25]<+camerongray> So much fun
[12:25]<@jacky> ... sigh...
[12:25]<+camerongray> haha
[12:26]<+camerongray> It wasn't me that went down to the vending machines without getting up! (Took his chair in the lift)
[12:26]<+camerongray> This was at 3am
[12:26]<@jacky> camerongray: you don't understand business, etc.
[12:26]<+camerongray> heh
[12:26]<@jacky> you were live testing chair bearings
[12:26]<@Calum> took his chair in the lift hah, nice
[12:26]<@jacky> right?
[12:26]<+camerongray> lol!
[12:26]<+camerongray> None broke!
[12:26]<@jacky> don't forget to write it off your taxes, too
[12:26]<Immental1200> Wel...
[12:26]<+camerongray> We started going mental in the end
[12:27]<Immental1200> Our office is currently half full of servers, I'd struggle getting the chair to the door... let alone out it!
[12:27]<+camerongray> My friend was sitting yelling at his PC as me and my other friend went to the shop - When we asked if anyone wanted anything, his response was "3 metres of rope" :P
[12:27]<@jacky> umm... camerongray.. ahhh... hate to be the one to break it to you... but "started going mental" happened to you a looooong time ago
[12:27]<@jacky> we have logs
[12:27]<@jacky> heh
[12:27]<@Calum> hah
[12:27]<+camerongray> haha!
[12:27]<@jacky> !g 3 metres in feet =
[12:28]<@Calum> I'm just imagining waiting for the lift...*bing* door opens...guy sitting on his chair waiting to push himself out of the door
[12:28]<+camerongray> haha
[12:28]<+camerongray> Oh yeah - I was waiting for that too!
[12:28]<@jacky> Calum: you got something against folks in wheelchairs??
[12:28]<@jacky> <g>
[12:28]<@Calum> what's it to you?
[12:28]<+camerongray> Then again - Nothing is unusual in Informatics
[12:29]<@jacky> Calum: you need to be in an attitude channel, not this idiocy channel
[12:29]<@Calum> I wonder what a phobia of wheelchairs is called, I might have that
[12:29]<Immental1200> !g phobia of wheelchairs
[12:29]<@jacky> Informatics - sounds like the name of a cartoon super hero show
[12:29]<+camerongray> hehe
[12:29]<+camerongray> In other news: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brutalist_architecture#Gallery
[12:30]<+camerongray> The undergrad informatics building made it! :D
[12:30]<Immental1200> 'A phobia of wheelchairs is too uncommon to have an official term - See more at: http://www.thislinkisamotherfuckingbitch.com
[12:30]<@Calum> from the link - "A phobia of wheelchairs is too uncommon to have an official term."
[12:30]<+camerongray> Big photo on the right
[12:30]<Immental1200> Beat you to it Calum XD
[12:30]<@Calum> and the woman in the picture at the top of the page looks completely horrified, she must have had a terrible experience with a wheelchair
[12:30]<Immental1200> Is that... your building?
[12:30]<+camerongray> Yeah
[12:30]<+camerongray> Wow - That photo makes the building look good!
[12:31]<@Calum> heh
[12:31]<+camerongray> Voted ugliest building in the city
[12:31]<Immental1200> http://ubic.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Innovation-Centre-e1363696861753.jpg
[12:31]<Immental1200> That is mine...
[12:31]<Immental1200> It's pretty ugly
[12:31]<+camerongray> Still better than appleton :P
[12:31]<+camerongray> And our lifts troll us
[12:31]<Immental1200> Bath University student accomodation floors 3-5
[12:32]<Immental1200> Bath uni innovation centre floors 0-1
[12:32]<Immental1200> Something on the middle floor I don't actually know about
[12:32]<+camerongray> Get in on 5, press G - Takes you to 9 (Which has a key to normally go to) then back to 5, then to the basement, then to G
[12:32]<Immental1200> Well... that's broken
[12:32]<+camerongray> And the middle one likes to open its doors right before it stops - So depending on the number of people in the lift it will sometimes jam
[12:33]<Immental1200> I'm on the first floor, so I walk in and go up some stairs, then walk like ... 5m to the office :D
[12:33]<+camerongray> Solution is to kick them and they open
[12:33]<Immental1200> Literally... less than 25 metres from the entrance door to the office xD
[12:33]<+camerongray> lol
[12:34]<+camerongray> Most of the labs are on 5, some on 4 and 3
[12:34]<Immental1200> I don't suppose anyone wants 13 1U servers an a 2U?
[12:34]<+camerongray> Pretty nice inside until you go into a room with an "Asbestos Warning" sign
[12:34]<Immental1200> Umm. That's worrying.
[12:35]<+camerongray> Place is made of it :P
[12:35] * Zuwer (Mibbit@mib-9196E61D.jetstream.xtra.co.nz) Quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
[12:35]<+camerongray> All the labs.etc are from around 2004 so they are pretty modern (Informatics used to be a different building but was lost in a massive fire in 2002)
[12:36]<Immental1200> But yeah... we've got 17/18 serves sat there, and after we stick all the bits together and make 4/5 ultra ones, we're ditching the rest XD - you'd just need to be in Bath at the middle of next week XD
[12:36]<+camerongray> lol
[12:37]<@Calum> I'll take them
[12:37]<@Calum> googling how far away bath is brb
[12:37]<Immental1200> broad quay, bath
[12:37]<Immental1200> XD
[12:38]<@Calum> ah Bath is actually further than I thought
[12:38]<@Calum> hm
[12:38]<@Calum> you should see Cassie's face right now
[12:38]<Immental1200> Don't worry, I'll take all the good leftovers for myself and we'll recyle / donate the rest or something :P
[12:39]<@Calum> ah I thought I was passing that way but it's not for a few weeks
[12:39]<Immental1200> Yeah... they're hiring a second apprentice, and currently the desk in the office for him has 14 servers under it, 4 on top and then there's a few stacks of switches + 3 monitors...
[12:40]<@Calum> nice
[12:40]<Immental1200> Not to mention boxes of hard drives, cables and ... well I haven't even got to the bottom boxes yet.
[12:41]<@Calum> I am actually passing that way on the 16th, would've helped you out with "recycling" ;) much to Cassie's displeasure heh
[12:41]<+camerongray> What spec are the servers?
[12:41]<Immental1200> Erm. Don't know yet.
[12:41]<Immental1200> I know they're mainly HP with perhaps a couple fujitsu and one Dell.
[12:42]<Immental1200> And I know they were used to support two business ... like their entire IT infrastructure ran off them.
[12:42]<Immental1200> So, I'd imagine still lots of use left.
[12:42]<Immental1200> My boss reckons one of them could still be worth nearly £5k if it's what he thinks it is
[12:54]<+camerongray> Ahh nice
[12:54]<+camerongray> I'd take any if they are decent
[12:54]<+camerongray> Like not P4-era stuff :P
[12:55]<Immental1200> I turned up Monday and was told here's 3 PCs make one work and use it xD
[12:55]<Immental1200> All P4
[12:55]<Immental1200> Swiped the old developers PC instead
[12:56]<+camerongray> hehe
[12:56]<Immental1200> Interesting PC actually...
[12:56]<+camerongray> What company is this?
[12:56]<Immental1200> It's got two Xeon's
[12:56]<Immental1200> Shows up as 4 cores on Task manager
[12:56]<Immental1200> But both are single core, with no hyperthreading
[12:57]<+camerongray> hmm
[12:57]<+camerongray> That must be pretty old though :P
[12:57]<Immental1200> 2004
[12:57]<@Calum> sure it doesn't have 4 Xeons? ;)
[12:57]<Immental1200> Opened it up and checked...
[12:57]<Immental1200> Shows as two processors under system properties
[12:57]<@Calum> what model are they?
[12:58]<Immental1200> Literally just says Xeon 2.4GHz
[12:58]<Immental1200> Socket 604
[12:58]<+camerongray> Wow that's old :P
[12:58]<@Calum> sure they're not hyper threaded? I think most 604 processors were
