They can use the switch/access point part of the router... not two DSL connections
07:14:07 PM

agamotto, not to mention that ads can be used as infection-vehicles for malware and so on
07:14:17 PM

SashaD was so early, when I turned on the BSP, I thought RobbieF grew hair, but she was aleady there
07:19:55 PM

i think 3.5 itself already draws about 8w
07:20:30 PM

08:14:57 PM
Dennis_Kelley
Does anyone know i created some video files from my webcam named 08\29\2012.avi how can i change them to 08-29-2012.avi easliy?
08:16:17 PM
_Jot_
mv ?
08:17:17 PM
_Jot_
i don't know enough to make a script or batchfile that does it automaticly, but if there aren't a lot, then midnight commander can help as well
08:17:48 PM
Dennis_Kelley
I tried MC but could not figure out how to do it. I will look at it again!
08:18:27 PM
invinciblemutant
RobbieF: is Rachel a half chinese? i guess that out from her name
08:18:28 PM
Dennis_Kelley
_Jot_ - mv results - mv: cannot stat `08292012-21:18:16.avi': No such file or directory
08:18:53 PM
_Jot_
yeah, mv is
08:19:09 PM
_Jot_
so if you're in the 08\29 folder, you would do mv * ..
08:19:10 PM
invinciblemutant
put the file name in double quotes
08:19:23 PM
invinciblemutant
sets
08:19:28 PM
invinciblemutant
sorry
08:19:45 PM
Dennis_Kelley
it is treating the \ like spaces
08:20:18 PM
invinciblemutant
user slash instead of back slash Dennis_Kelley
08:20:21 PM
Dennis_Kelley
awesome! Thanks!
08:20:40 PM
invinciblemutant
correction: use slash
08:20:42 PM
SashaD
Good night everyone
08:20:51 PM
_Jot_
Have a good week SashaD!
08:20:56 PM
_Jot_
It was nice to have you on the show
08:21:31 PM
_Jot_
With midnight commander, you can then select everything with * and then mv it to xx-* for example (where xx would be the name you want to name it as)
08:21:35 PM
Dennis_Kelley
invinciblemutant - any idea how to change all of them at once?
08:21:56 PM
invinciblemutant
use regular expression
08:22:11 PM
invinciblemutant
use can play around with this unix script
08:22:36 PM
invinciblemutant
i would do it in steps
08:23:02 PM
invinciblemutant
1. for i in *; do echo $i; done
08:23:10 PM
invinciblemutant
step 1 get all the files right
08:23:58 PM
invinciblemutant
1. for i in *; do echo $i | sed "s/\\//g" ; done
08:23:59 PM
_Jot_
RobbieF, I can still see her! Did you use that special glue to attach her to the chair?
08:24:04 PM
invinciblemutant
2. for i in *; do echo $i | sed "s/\\//g" ; done
08:24:22 PM
invinciblemutant
step 2, sed replaces the back slash
08:24:36 PM
invinciblemutant
output it, no replacement done
08:25:25 PM
invinciblemutant
3. for i in *; do target=`echo $i | sed "s/\\//g"`; echo $i $target ; done
08:25:43 PM
invinciblemutant
step 3, show all are fine before moving
08:26:06 PM
invinciblemutant
last step is to change the echo command to mv, and put filenames in double quotes
08:26:27 PM
invinciblemutant
4. for i in *; do target=`echo $i | sed "s/\\//g"`; mv "$i" "$target" ; done
08:26:42 PM
invinciblemutant
that is all
08:26:51 PM
agamotto
ok, dinner is started
08:27:04 PM
invinciblemutant
Dennis_Kelley: got it? please check if my regular expression works for the backslashes
08:27:07 PM
_Jot_
great! I'm getting hungry
08:28:26 PM
invinciblemutant
Dennis_Kelley: if it does not work, you might need to double the pair as sed "s/\\\\//g"
08:28:58 PM
invinciblemutant
perhaps RobbieF can help to rectify this regular expression if it does not work
08:28:59 PM
Dennis_Kelley
I am working on it. I am new to scripting
08:29:17 PM
invinciblemutant
make sure everything is fine before moving/..
08:29:28 PM
invinciblemutant
backup before doing everything
08:29:39 PM
agamotto
_Jot_, Do you like tandoori-style naan?
08:29:39 PM
invinciblemutant
that may break the system
08:29:51 PM
invinciblemutant
Dennis_Kelley: remember to backup
08:30:06 PM
Dennis_Kelley
oh i do back up
08:30:10 PM
_Jot_
agamotto, I do like such dishes, I never had that one though, so I'll give it a try :)
08:30:13 PM
invinciblemutant
good luck
08:31:08 PM
Dennis_Kelley
I get - sed: -e expression #1, char 6: unterminated `s' command
08:32:01 PM
Dennis_Kelley
i did the s/\\\\//g, this worked
08:32:13 PM
agamotto
This one is easy: Get some flatbread (indian style is called naan), put bits of lamb, sesame oil, spices, cheeses, and other toppings on, put in oven on a clay plate for about 15 min, depending on size,
08:32:33 PM
_Jot_
sounds good!
08:33:07 PM
invinciblemutant
yea, i tried that out, double the backslashes
08:33:49 PM
invinciblemutant
make sure everything is ok before changing the echo command to mv
08:33:49 PM
agamotto
Very... as I use gouda, romano, and asiago cheese. Spices tonight are: cardamom, turmeric, paprika, garlic, and cinnamon
08:34:20 PM

08:40:13 PM
Guest_Harry
did you guys ever finalized the video for the server build/
08:40:30 PM
_Jot_
Not yet I think, Guest_Harry
08:40:37 PM
Dennis_Kelley
invinciblemutant - for i in *; do target=`echo $i | sed "s/\\\\//g"`; echo $i $target ; done - gave me - sed: -e expression #1, char 6: unterminated `s' command
08:40:56 PM
_Jot_
it was mostly a lot of staring at a computer and seeing if the box would collapse or not before it was finished
08:40:59 PM
Dennis_Kelley
I will put it to Robbie in a question for the show!
08:41:03 PM
_Jot_
plus RobbieF did it wrong, he forgot parts
08:41:20 PM
Guest_Harry
really? wow
08:41:38 PM
_Jot_
that's where the washers come from, if you heard about that, he forgot those
08:41:52 PM
Guest_Harry
oh yes , I remeber now
08:41:53 PM
_Jot_
It's becuase he doesn't read manuals, although lately he seems a bit better at it
08:42:02 PM
Guest_Harry
haha
08:42:20 PM
_Jot_
also he put the videocard in, and then wanted to put the cpu in, so he had to remove the videocard again
08:42:23 PM
invinciblemutant
Dennis_Kelley: change it back with just 2 backslashes
08:42:56 PM
Dennis_Kelley
same error
08:43:09 PM
Guest_Harry
oh by the way , did RobbieF asked about a device like Ipod? at the begining of the show?
08:43:21 PM
Dennis_Kelley
for i in *; do target=`echo $i | sed "s/\\//g"`; echo $i $target ; done
08:43:32 PM
invinciblemutant
Dennis_Kelley: sorry, use single quotes for the 's/\\\\/-/g'
08:43:50 PM
invinciblemutant
that replaces backslashes to -
08:44:08 PM
invinciblemutant
previous, got rid of backslashes
08:44:46 PM
Guest_Harry
have a good evening guys, and thanks for all the good things
08:44:46 PM
agamotto
Ahhh, the joys of syntax
08:44:47 PM
invinciblemutant
sorry for the trouble and errors
08:45:21 PM
invinciblemutant
hope this will finally work for you
08:45:28 PM
invinciblemutant
i have just tried that out
08:46:15 PM
Dennis_Kelley
ok so I am sorry for my lack of knowledge, but do I run that script just from the command line?
08:46:26 PM
invinciblemutant
yea
08:46:33 PM
Dennis_Kelley
09\04\2012-06:30:29.avi 09042012-06:30:29.avi

09\04\2012-07:00:27.avi 09042012-07:00:27.avi
08:46:40 PM
Dennis_Kelley
that is what I get!
08:46:49 PM
invinciblemutant
is this what you wanted?
08:46:53 PM
Dennis_Kelley
but then I ls and nothing is changed
08:47:10 PM
Dennis_Kelley
thats fine, but nothing is changed
08:47:14 PM
invinciblemutant
that just display the output before the change, change the last echo command to mv
08:47:22 PM
invinciblemutant
then will finally move !!!
08:47:35 PM
invinciblemutant
you missed the step 4
08:47:41 PM
agamotto
Call me stupid, but wouldn't the renaming create a new directory?
08:47:58 PM
_Jot_
mv is pretty smart
08:48:03 PM
agamotto
ahh, ok
08:48:36 PM
Dennis_Kelley
Awesome! Thank you so much! Not sure what any of it means but it worked!
08:48:41 PM
invinciblemutant
in unix, mv is rename
08:48:54 PM
invinciblemutant
Dennis_Kelley: you are welcome
08:49:18 PM
Dennis_Kelley
so the sed changed the \ to - right?
08:49:19 PM
invinciblemutant
once you are happy, you can even turn that into a unix command..:)
08:49:44 PM
invinciblemutant
sed is called the stream editor...
08:49:54 PM
agamotto
Now please deposit 5 Bitcoins to to continue your support in this channel... chuckle
08:50:01 PM
Dennis_Kelley
well it wont happen again. i had to change my motion.conf to produce the correct files
08:50:02 PM
invinciblemutant
it edits characters
08:50:26 PM
_Jot_
I just put 5 bitcoins in the slot in front of my computer!
08:50:36 PM
Dennis_Kelley
so what does the s/\\\\//g mean?
08:50:53 PM
invinciblemutant
it means to replace backslashes with nothing
08:51:23 PM
invinciblemutant
you can check out the command with: man sed
08:51:33 PM
Dennis_Kelley
how do you learn that s/\\\\//g changes slashes to nothing
08:52:27 PM
invinciblemutant
from the manual, and well as forum..i use it a lot in managing my files in bulk in which file browser falls short
08:53:01 PM
Dennis_Kelley
ok so if i would have Read the Man Page i could have figured it out?
08:53:04 PM
invinciblemutant
imagine that you have thousands of files, i wont do it in a file browser
08:53:07 PM
_Jot_
usually it starts when you have a problem, like putting files in the wrong golders, for example
08:53:36 PM
_Jot_
then somebody goes 'try this' and then you go 'I didn't know that! I learned something'
08:53:45 PM
invinciblemutant
Unix command is powerful, but you have to use it with care...it is just too powerful...
08:54:06 PM
invinciblemutant
it is experience like what _Jot_ said
08:54:22 PM
invinciblemutant
i have used unix and linux for more than 10 years
08:54:24 PM
invinciblemutant
just learning
08:54:24 PM
_Jot_
if you want to see RobbieF sweat, ask him how to fix it after something like that goes wrong :)
08:54:42 PM
agamotto
Well, on that lesson , I will away... from the smell of it, dinner is just about done.
08:54:46 PM
invinciblemutant
sweat? pissed i suppose
08:54:50 PM
_Jot_
have a nice dinner
08:55:05 PM
agamotto
I will
08:55:13 PM
_Jot_
he'll be like looking everywhere for the solution, moving his head this way and that and so on
08:55:17 PM
invinciblemutant
it is really problem based learning
08:56:08 PM
Dennis_Kelley
Thanks A lot Guys! This is the place to learn!
08:56:35 PM
invinciblemutant
bear in mind, not just learn but share...:)
08:57:01 PM
Dennis_Kelley
I will as soon as I have something to share that someone needs!
08:57:01 PM
invinciblemutant
good to hear that this is the place for you
08:57:28 PM
Dennis_Kelley
I chime in when I can!
08:57:46 PM
_Jot_
it's great to help when you can :)
08:57:56 PM
invinciblemutant
the door is always open, no chime required..lol
08:59:17 PM
Dennis_Kelley
I have a good one to send to Robbie, if I put my home folder on a separate partition, can i install a different distro and then use my home folder in that distro?
08:59:54 PM
_Jot_
you could, but settings could be different between distributions and so it may not work well
08:59:59 PM
Dennis_Kelley
is the answer yes as long as it is based on the same distro?
09:01:07 PM
invinciblemutant
no really Dennis_Kelley, even different distro, u still can share the home folder
09:01:41 PM
Dennis_Kelley
but like _Jot_ said are settings going to work
09:01:45 PM
invinciblemutant
it is all about filesystem mounting
09:01:59 PM
invinciblemutant
as long as they use the same window manager, they should work
09:02:12 PM
invinciblemutant
if they are not, some may break apart
09:02:38 PM
Dennis_Kelley
that is the gnome kde ...
09:02:44 PM
Dennis_Kelley
*right
09:02:45 PM
invinciblemutant
for instance, if you use gedit for both distros, all settings should be intact in both
09:03:24 PM
invinciblemutant
the windows manager settings should be different if they are of different windows manager
09:03:41 PM
Dennis_Kelley
so if they both use nvidia-settings, my dual screens should work in both
09:04:01 PM
invinciblemutant
yes theoretically
09:04:07 PM
Dennis_Kelley
without setting them up again
09:04:45 PM
Dennis_Kelley
as long also the same driver is used. or is the driver being used in my home folder?
09:04:56 PM
invinciblemutant
theoretically, no extra setup if the same program and same version is used
09:05:20 PM
Dennis_Kelley
ok cool! thanks again!
09:05:28 PM
invinciblemutant
the driver is not in your home, but in the distro, kernel
09:05:35 PM
invinciblemutant
and kernel is almost standard...
09:06:10 PM
invinciblemutant
if you have nvidia, you may need to upgrade the driver manually
09:06:14 PM
invinciblemutant
afaik
09:06:29 PM
_Jot_
make sure to make backups in advance of everything
09:06:31 PM
invinciblemutant
like in ubuntu, you have to upgrade the driver after isntallation
09:06:50 PM
invinciblemutant
_Jot_ is right, backup backup backup
09:07:10 PM
invinciblemutant
but, why you need to distros?
09:07:19 PM
invinciblemutant
if you want to play around, use virtualbox
09:07:21 PM
Dennis_Kelley
oh for sure, That is what my pogoplug is for
09:09:22 PM
Dennis_Kelley
well I have an older computer. so VBox runs slow. Plus I can't get a really good feel for a distro, with my three monitors in a VM
09:11:27 PM
GWG
Today was not good
09:12:03 PM
Dennis_Kelley
why GWG
09:12:28 PM
GWG
I got threatened by someone who told me if I didn't do what he wanted, he'd get the media involved
09:12:40 PM
GWG
I'm tired of everyone who is upset threatening me with the press and/or social media
09:12:46 PM
Dennis_Kelley
wow! not good at all!
09:12:56 PM
_Jot_
wow, those harddrives can be a pain when they hit you, never mind optical media
09:13:11 PM
GWG
Dennis_Kelley: Thus is life
09:13:19 PM
invinciblemutant
is there any law protecting people from blackmailing
09:13:23 PM
GWG
I so rarely talk to people, and usually it is when someone else can't pacify them
09:13:36 PM
GWG
invinciblemutant: No. You can say whatever you want on social media
09:13:45 PM
GWG
Now, you may look like an idiot and gain no traction
09:13:50 PM
GWG
Or you may go viral
09:13:54 PM
_Jot_
here there are laws, but it depends on who you are, and what was said.
09:13:55 PM
GWG
I recommend you do it as a music video
09:13:59 PM
GWG
It worked for that Canadian guy
09:14:09 PM
RobbieF
Guru, I demand you send me a pizza, or I'll call the radio station! ;)
09:14:11 PM
_Jot_
you mean RobbieF?
09:14:20 PM
invinciblemutant
indeed u can say anything, but threatening is against the law
09:14:28 PM
invinciblemutant
i reckon
09:14:28 PM
GWG
No, Dave Carroll, the folk singer
09:14:36 PM
GWG
Search Youtube for United Breaks Guitars
09:14:47 PM
RobbieF
that was great
09:14:53 PM
RobbieF
(dave's story)
09:15:40 PM
_Jot_
RobbieF, I demand you send me wine or I'll whine and huf and puf and blow your house down! or something
09:16:05 PM
_Jot_
I can do it you know! I just have to move my eyes and you go all over the screen already!
09:16:24 PM
_Jot_
or my head, it was, with that program
09:16:34 PM
GWG
RobbieF: You a fan of his? I'd never heard of him till that, but I loved those songs. Very catchy. Bought them for 99 cents each
09:16:35 PM
RobbieF
C'mon over _Jot_. ;)
09:16:48 PM
_Jot_
darn! foiled again
09:16:54 PM
RobbieF
GWG neah it was just that video going viral that got me.
09:18:21 PM
GWG
It was catchy
09:18:37 PM
GWG
I could have ripped it off Youtube, but it seemed fair to give him the $3
09:20:56 PM
_Jot_
I need sleep, so I will go see if my bed is still where I left it. Have a great time everyone!
09:21:00 PM

P.S. Don't forget to unplug RobbieF from the charger after he is done, he's currently at 20% or so
