[1:21] <elfgoh> dqminh: next time tell them it is "linuxNUS cohesion" ;)
[1:21] <dwu> now, I don't -think- I'll want to pack GH :P But the console itself is tiny.
[1:21] <dwu> (I mean, GH is technically packable, but biggish)
[1:21] <elfgoh> dwu: well actually we were on the verge of loaning GH from M$
[1:22] <dwu> elfgoh: Heh, isn't MS Xbox360 though?
[1:22] <elfgoh> but let's go with the portable wii for starters
[1:22] <dqminh> elfgoh, we dont have any TV, do we ?
[1:22] <dwu> dqminh: I'll be trying to find a Wii-VGA, I think.
[1:22] <dwu> (anyways, I don't have enough controllers for a full band :()
[1:23] <dwu> (I do have two wiimotes, so we -can- do multiplayer stuff.
[1:23] <elfgoh> dwu: well let me ask for on our mail/blog for a wii-vga too
[1:23] <dwu> elfgoh: Thank you.
[1:23] <elfgoh> dwu: i can borrow another 2 wii motes
[1:23] <elfgoh> actually my office has 4 i think....
[1:23] <dwu> elfgoh: Awesome. Full four-player multi. Count the wii in.
[1:23] <elfgoh> but I doubt there are games that need 6 wii motes?
[1:23] <dwu> (let's all hope I don't get OT on thursday, although so far I've heard nothing)
[1:24] <dwu> elfgoh: maximum 4 anyways, haven't you seen the player indicator lights on the wiimotes?
[1:24] <elfgoh> dwu: well i am afraid my skills of observation had failed me
[1:25] <elfgoh> ah yes!
[1:25] <elfgoh> I have some shit to clear up with triplez regarding the right and left sides of the brain

[22:04] <cyberjames> ah
[22:04] <ruiwen> dwu: what's rss-twitter about?
[22:05] <dwu> ruiwen: elfgoh wants to make RSS into twitter feed. I think it can probably be done with Perl.
[22:05] <ruiwen> dwu: icic
[22:05] <dwu> ruiwen: And I will prolly not be gaming :)
[22:06] <ruiwen> dwu: haha okie.. happy hacking then =)
[22:06] <dwu> ruiwen: yeah, I'll join though, I like watching people game :)
[22:06] <ruiwen> can't find my way around HoN myself
[22:06] <ruiwen> it'll probably only be elfgoh leading the charge i figure
[22:06] <dwu> ruiwen: So I'll see you guys semilateish tomorrow, prolly around... 8.00 or 8.30.
[22:08] <ruiwen> dwu: sure thing.. give a ring when you're heading over then

[22:33] <dwu> I like being a lab rat!
[22:33] <jarick> dwu: Excellent.
[22:33] <dwu> I am, however, not a sysadmin.
[22:33] <jarick> dwu: Are you, or have you been a sysadmin?
[22:33] <jarick> Ah. Damn.
[22:33] <dwu> Dude, we went to the same school, you tell me :P
[22:34] <jarick> dwu: I dunno, maybe you were moonlighting?
[22:34] <jarick> I was.
[22:34] <dwu> Oh, fair point.
[22:35] <dwu> I dunno, what does this lab rattery involve?
[22:36] <jarick> dwu: It involves you being presented a windows machine under attack.
[22:36] <jarick> And you telling them what's wrong.
[22:36] <dwu> dear lord.
[22:36] <jarick> Other than the fact it's running windows.

[22:53] <jarick> Hmm, so no sysadmins here?

[23:16] <jmarki> ruiwen: how are you thinking of training sysmins???
[23:16] <ruiwen> jmarki: you
[23:16] <ruiwen> =p
[23:16] <jmarki> diao
[23:16] <jmarki> i was thinking for 2+ years, and i still can't figure out how that can be done
[23:17] <ruiwen> jmarki: but seriously, that why we need to sit down and hammer out the necessary skills to see if this is feasible or not
[23:17] <elfgoh_I> i saw that coming from ruiwen
[23:17] * jmarki change line to be sysmin lecturer
[23:17] <jmarki> ~wee!!
[23:18] <ruiwen> jmarki: they don't have to be at your level.. they just need enough to be able to help maintain the mirror
[23:18] <jmarki> "thou must be paranoid, my young jedi"
[23:18] <ruiwen> thank you elfgoh_I
[23:18] <elfgoh_I> ruiwen: think soc helpdesk has some in house program for student helpers?
[23:18] * ruiwen never knew jedi masters used "thou"
[23:18] <ruiwen> elfgoh_I: yeah true
[23:18] <jmarki> ruiwen: ancient mah
[23:18] <ruiwen> elfgoh_I: though if it's soc, they might well be trained in solaris, not linux
[23:18] <elfgoh_I> we could possibly look at that and cutomise to our needs
[23:19] <jmarki> okok, "paranoid thou must be, my young jedi"
[23:19] <ruiwen> jmarki: even the ancient yoda doesn't seem to use "thou" =P
[23:19] <ruiwen> elfgoh_I: a possibility, yes
[23:19] <ruiwen> incidentally, jmarki, would you happen to know why soc loves solaris so much?
[23:19] <dqminh> "thou" is not used in the movies i think
[23:19] <elfgoh_I> ruiwen: i think linux was thought too... not sure. need to verify
[23:20] <jmarki> erm? cos they use sun products? and sun products works best on solaris?
[23:20] <ruiwen> elfgoh_I: that i haven't heard of
[23:20] <ruiwen> jmarki: such as?
[23:20] <dqminh> elfgoh_I, is there such a program ?
[23:20] <jmarki> isn't all their servers and stuff all from sun?
[23:20] <ruiwen> jmarki: also, why the sun-ward leanings?
[23:20] <ruiwen> yeah
[23:20] <ruiwen> so why Sun is what i'm asking, really
[23:21] <ruiwen> dqminh: it's not very wide-scale i think.. just a few each sem/year or something?
[23:21] <elfgoh_I> dqminh: yes it started when i was in yr 4. am not sure if it is still going on
[23:21] <jmarki> cos sun is traditionally THE powerhouse in academic computational hardware
[23:22] <ruiwen> hm.. ok
[23:22] <jmarki> elfgoh_I: any link for that helper thing?
[23:22] <jmarki> ruiwen: maybe discuss the sysmin thing tomolo
[23:23] <ruiwen> jmarki: sure
[23:24] <jmarki> ruiwen: did u ask shing gene what's his plan to train sysmins?
[23:24] <ruiwen> oh dqminh.. can we have a coreteam meeting soon perhaps?
[23:24] <ruiwen> jmarki: no we didn't discuss the training
[23:24] <dqminh> ruiwen, sure.
[23:24] <ruiwen> jmarki: all we discussed was that we could send people over to help
[23:24] <jmarki> ruiwen: aww...
[23:25] <ruiwen> jmarki: we can always follow up with him once we have a more complete idea of what we want to achieve i think?
[23:25] <dqminh> ruiwen, actually i'm drafting an email now :p
[23:25] <jmarki> dqminh: make it after 7.30, then i can go.. =D
[23:25] <ruiwen> dqminh: yay! about the meeting? or..?
