7:05:14 PMDennis_Kelley ok got it on Youtube but its behind
7:05:15 PMGoodGuy Take my wife first lol (just kidding)
7:05:43 PMGoodGuy Paragon Virtualization Manager?
7:05:54 PMGoodGuy It is supposed to do that iirc
7:06:28 PM_Jot_ youtube is about a minute behind due to encoding for multiple resolutions I think
7:06:48 PMT0B33 Been wanting to know this for a very long time RobbieF, i've missed this show!! Will be ideal and better than Duel Booting all the time and we can use our installs on any machine that has Virtual Box xD
7:07:19 PM_Jot_ RobbieF fixed it so you can donate now below $35 too, but more is welcome as well. So go to http:/cat5.tv/c to do that :)
7:07:25 PM_Jot_ http://cat5.tv/c
7:07:29 PM_Jot_ learn to type, Jot!
7:08:10 PM_mote_ morning!
7:08:15 PMrobgor hey all hows everyone going
7:08:20 PM_Jot_ hi everybody who came in during the beginning of the show
7:08:41 PMGoodGuy hi robgor
7:08:45 PMT0B33 robgor: going no where i dont think?
7:08:45 PMRobbieF-tab Hey _mote_ and robgor
7:08:54 PMRobbieF-tab Doing well here man how about you?
7:09:19 PMGoodGuy Save buying a 2nd copy and the fees necessary
7:09:42 PMPaulR8 audio still good,
7:09:44 PMrobgor lol TOB33
7:09:53 PMPaulR8 will watch video later
7:10:07 PM_Jot_ http://clonezilla.org for clonezilla
7:10:07 PMRobbieF-tab Glad audio is working for you at least PaulR8... it's nice to have a useable fallback.
7:10:12 PMRobbieF-tab Thanks _Jot_
7:10:38 PM_Jot_ not going to make you type symbols on a tab RobbieF :)
7:11:13 PMRobbieF-tab phew!
7:11:45 PMGoodGuy you mean 128 mb.. 128 gb is still fairly costly
7:11:55 PMGoodGuy ?
7:12:02 PM_Jot_ If you don't want to get unetbootin from a repository or are using windows, you can get it from http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
7:12:17 PM_Jot_ (or mac)
7:14:48 PM_Jot_ ooohhhhh fight figh figh fight
7:14:56 PM_mote_ lol
7:15:26 PM_Jot_ 'you'll never go through all the flashdrives and put the name on them'
7:15:43 PM_Jot_ meanwhile they all got erased anyway due to age :)
7:15:46 PMGoodGuy RobbieF: walked right into that one.. my wife catches me on that often
7:16:16 PMajamison5579 what happened ? I just logged in
7:16:54 PM_Jot_ Robbie was like 'look at me! I got all these flashdrives! And I use a sharpie to put the name from what I put on them'
7:17:00 PM_mote_ any idea about the finite number of write/delete of a flashdrive?
7:17:08 PM_Jot_ and Bekah was like 'but you never do that and go through them all'
7:17:22 PMRobbieF-tab different for each one _mote_ but wikipedia has lots of info on general rule of thumb
7:17:33 PMRobbieF-tab I'm like a DVD hoarder ;)
7:17:40 PMajamison5579 did not realize tonight was the Bekah episode
7:18:11 PMGoodGuy I have all my computer stuff stored in hysterical sequence
7:18:40 PMajamison5579 GoodGuy Order + Computer stuff ?
7:18:54 PMajamison5579 I have computer parts everywhere it drives the wife nuts
7:19:04 PMGoodGuy Means there really is no order.. it just piled somewhere
7:19:35 PM_Jot_ ajamison5579, we get two of them, next week also. This week is the episode where RobbieF uses unetbootin to put clonezilla on an USB drive, and make a copy of her laptop
7:19:53 PMGoodGuy Same here.. my wife is always threatening a cleanup and I plead don't.. I know where most stuff is
7:20:12 PMajamison5579 I even have a external 14 drive SCSI 2 enclosure which is as tall as a dang full sized computer tower
7:20:16 PMajamison5579 whic I never use
7:20:35 PM_Jot_ I always say 'dumb people need to clean neverything up and organize to remember where everything is, smart people just remember it'
7:20:37 PMajamison5579 because i lost my SCSI 2 card
7:20:47 PMGoodGuy Be nice it was full of 14 drives
7:21:05 PMajamison5579 GoodGuy its empty lol never go around to filling it
7:21:21 PMajamison5579 trying to see if i can retrofit it to eSATA some how
7:21:28 PMGoodGuy 14 scsi drives would cost a few bucks
7:21:29 PM_Jot_ I have one or two of such smaller towers too :) i do have a few scsi drives, but mostly in computers that use them
7:21:59 PM_Jot_ ajamison, not if it is SCSI, it'll have some kind of controller-chips that won't be compatible
7:22:39 PMajamison5579 _jot_ this is old school! I relied on Daisy Chaining SCSI drives no controler chip lol
7:22:54 PMajamison5579 *it
7:23:21 PMGoodGuy Dove makes good ice cream bars as well
7:23:30 PM_Jot_ ajamison5579, of course you daisy-chain SCSI, but you still have a terminator on there, and the box itsself will probably have some kind of selection-logic
7:24:00 PM_Jot_ of course with 14 it probably won't, but it still needs termination somehow
7:24:14 PMrobgor why does the website say that its 6 minutes until the live show?
7:24:15 PMajamison5579 Can send pictures _jot_ it relied on an external terminator, it was litteraly just a cable attached to the back of the enclosure
7:24:30 PMajamison5579 So i could maybe install a controller of some sort
7:24:54 PMajamison5579 held on by 2 screws
7:25:01 PM_Jot_ ajamison5579, you still can get controllers, but they still aren't very cheap, I got a few so I'm good :)
7:25:39 PMajamison5579 well since SCSI is expensive 1) and 2) outdated I would retrofit it to some other interface
7:26:03 PM_Jot_ sounds difficult :)
7:26:31 PM_Jot_ Of course these days the thing that would never happen has happened, scsi turned into sas, and they made that compatible with sata, so now IDE and SCSI are compatible with each other
7:26:36 PMajamison5579 I bought it over 10+ years ago with my dilusions of owning a super high capacity sotrage solution
7:26:43 PMajamison5579 but it sat there to long
7:27:28 PMswl_brasil Hi Bekah, Hi Robbie...Nice to meet you.
7:27:41 PMajamison5579 Robbief Gas cars are endangered
7:27:49 PMajamison5579 Electric is the future
7:28:44 PM_Jot_ ajamison5579, same for me, I figured I'd be able to get some drives cheaper, but oh well, technology :)
7:29:09 PM_Jot_ at least now I actually got myself a new 24 drive server so I have something recent that I can use
7:29:17 PMajamison5579 Canadian's have crime?
7:29:26 PM_Jot_ hey swl :)
7:30:02 PMswl_brasil jerk is the derivative of acceleration: d3x/dt3
7:30:08 PMGuest_1669 hi Robbie
7:30:28 PMajamison5579 wait till Elon Musk works it out it will transfer thousands and be able to return
7:30:36 PMRobbieF-tab hi Guest_1669
7:31:18 PMRobbieF-tab ajamison5579 our crime consists of driving over the speed limit and holding the door open too long for people as they exit stores, thereby running up the air conditioning bill.
7:31:20 PMGuest_1669 napa polarbear herre
7:31:33 PM_Jot_ RobieF, say 'hi swl_brasil' cause he said hello too
7:31:46 PM_Jot_ Hi Bekah, Hi Robbie...Nice to meet you.
7:31:55 PMajamison5579 is this pre-recorded?
7:32:25 PMDreamer__ the beeb enjoy squandering our money
7:32:27 PM_Jot_ I don't see a tab in the picture, so I suspect so :)
7:32:52 PMDennis_Kelley he was cool just wearing the Kilt
7:33:00 PMGuest_1669 mars the war plant
7:33:11 PMRobbieF-tab thanks swl_brasil :)
7:33:14 PMRobbieF-tab Hey !! :)
7:33:34 PMtic-toc One of these days Alice- Pow right to the moon
7:33:35 PMRobbieF-tab My view of Mars is entirely from Total Recall (the original) :)
7:34:29 PMajamison5579 Robbief-tab Elon Musk claims that in the next 20 years he will be able to land on mars and return. Given his past predictions coming true be interesting to see if this happens
7:35:28 PMswl_brasil I do appreciate that.
7:36:04 PMtic-toc The porn industry is gonna love this....
7:36:07 PMRobbieF-tab definitely an interesting though ajamison5579
7:36:42 PMRobbieF-tab Oh tic-toc, you're terrible!
7:36:53 PMtic-toc just saying...lol
7:36:54 PMDennis_Kelley the pain of the bullet
7:37:56 PM_Jot_ yep, prerecorded :)
7:38:24 PMajamison5579 Robbief-Tab wait till he brings Tesla to your part of Canada! That car is freaking awesome
7:39:40 PMtic-toc another good free tool is AOMEI Backupper
7:40:48 PMajamison5579 Come on Intuit make a Linux compatible Quick Books
7:41:10 PMswl_brasil Bekah runs Linux!! I Love Bekah!!
7:41:15 PMDreamer__ virtualbox will use the file created by clonezilla directly will it?
7:41:19 PM_Jot_ I hope you have a backup of that computer RobbieF. Because just keeping a computer and put 'quickbooks' on it doesn't make it safe from data-corruption and so on :)
7:41:59 PMRobbieF-tab _Jot_ we backup the virtual machine weekly, and the QBW file (within the vm) nightly.
7:42:22 PM_Jot_ 'sorry Mr Taxman, I kept my data safe, look I have this computer, I even wrote 'quickbooks' on it with a sharpie, what else could I have done, and somehow it all got erased'
7:42:23 PMRobbieF-tab Essentially that's it Dreamer__, yes.
7:42:33 PMRobbieF-tab swl_brasil - I love her too :)
7:42:54 PMRobbieF-tab The fact that she runs Linux just makes me love her more ;) haha
7:43:11 PMDreamer__ hmm. thought it just used vdi and the vmware format and a couple of others
7:43:20 PMajamison5579 Sadly alot of my games will not run in WINE so I must use Windows as I refuse to stop playing them
7:43:44 PMajamison5579 one day the movement is upon us and Steam for Linux is a huge step in the right direction
7:43:46 PMRobbieF-tab that's right Dreamer__ but Clonezilla is agnostic as to what hardware you're restoring to... be it a physical drive, or a VDI :)
7:44:32 PMkeckeckec RobbieF-tab We make a snapshot in Virtualbox right before the incremental backup. Makes the backup smaller.
7:44:47 PMRobbieF-tab Perfect.
7:44:48 PMswl_brasil my wife runs windows...but i'm still loving her. I never understand womans well?
7:44:50 PMDreamer__ ah got you you RobbieF-tab you clonezilla restore in the vm
7:45:00 PMRobbieF-tab Yep, that's right.
7:45:03 PM_Jot_ how often do you make a full backup, RobbieF? I hope regularly also?
7:45:20 PMRobbieF-tab Full backups are weekly _Jot_. Incrementals are nightly.
7:45:37 PMajamison5579 swl_brasil i think the correct version of Woman you were looking for in that statement was Women
7:45:40 PM_Jot_ Have to check because not all presenters are so good :)
7:45:46 PMajamison5579 Womans is not a word
7:46:40 PMswl_brasil ok...sorry my english is very bad...in portuguese the plural comes with a "s" in the end of the word.
7:46:52 PMkeckeckec Got to run, all. Will watch rest of the video later
7:47:03 PMRobbieF-tab Since Eric is not here to be the grammar police, ajamison5579 is happy to step in :) Surprised he didn't give me a hard time with the way I say "kilometre" ;)
7:47:11 PMajamison5579 it does with alot of our words as well and I was just letting you know
7:47:12 PM_Jot_ don't worry swl_brasil, you're doing great :) they just want to help because they like to help
7:47:18 PMRobbieF-tab seeya keckeckec
7:47:45 PMDreamer__ of couse when you boot the restored os, it is up to os how it handles different 'emulated' hardware but in this case it will be fine with xp
7:48:01 PMajamison5579 Robbief-tab my Grammar is horrible lol just happened to know that part
7:48:38 PMajamison5579 swl_brazil thats right we are here to help unless your name is _jot_ then apparently we are here so you can win every giveaway!
7:49:19 PM_Jot_ yep! what did I win this time by the way? I wasn't even paying attention
7:49:22 PM_Jot_ but I'm sure I won
7:49:40 PMajamison5579 A shorter list would be what have you not won lol
7:49:59 PMajamison5579 I would go as far as to say you hold the record for the most contest wins on the show
7:50:09 PM_Jot_ apparently there is still a whole box of half makerd and unmarket USB-drives of 4GB I can still win :)
7:50:23 PM_Jot_ marked and unmarked
7:50:28 PMRobbieF-tab _Jot_ has very likely been watching the show the longest (or at least close to it!) so it make sense.
7:50:46 PMRobbieF-tab Haha _Jot_ they are like $100 each :)
7:51:19 PMajamison5579 Robbief-tab I started watching before he did :) he joined after your excapade with Entropia I joined back on episode like 20
7:51:31 PMajamison5579 Escapade
7:51:33 PMRobbieF-tab Amazing man...
7:51:40 PMajamison5579 ah heck you know what i ment
7:51:45 PM_Jot_ RobbieF, are they all safety copies of unraid Plus or something?
7:51:51 PMRobbieF-tab We need to send you a prize just for being a long-time viewer
7:52:13 PMajamison5579 Robbief-tab 5000 in Unmarked bills would be nice ;)
7:52:25 PMRobbieF-tab lol
7:53:16 PMajamison5579 and Miro is what introduced me to your show while searching for episodes of Linux Journal
7:53:18 PMajamison5579 lol
7:54:54 PM_Jot_ oh wait, can't be unraid plus, those cost $99 per 2, not per 1
7:55:04 PM_Jot_ Bekah is an amazing author though, she is good with language
7:55:13 PM_Jot_ it's just RobbieF is boring her
7:55:14 PMswl_brasil cat5 when comes to Brazil, my home is your home. Linux in Brasil is very popular.
7:55:49 PM_Jot_ that's very nice of you swl_brasil
7:55:52 PMRobbieF-tab :)
7:56:00 PMRobbieF-tab We'll bring the whole community!
7:56:05 PMRobbieF-tab Surprise! Bring on the BBQ!
7:56:06 PMRobbieF-tab ;)
7:56:17 PMDennis_Kelley is it RobbieF and Bekah anniversary?
7:57:04 PMRobbieF-tab Not until October Dennis_Kelley
7:57:18 PMajamison5579 Robbief-tab does Bekah enjoy doing the show? as a co-host i mean or does she do it for you
7:57:38 PMDennis_Kelley RobbieF - you usually have a prerecorded show at that time!
7:58:27 PM_Jot_ swl_brasil, I live in The Netherlands, and the temperature was like brasil in the past weeks, so very warm :)
7:58:42 PMRobbieF-tab Ahh gotcha Dennis_Kelley. I think our anniversary actually fell on a Tuesday... that's why
7:58:59 PMajamison5579 _jot_ was it hot enough to stop wearing wooden shoes?
7:59:03 PMswl_brasil 23�C here at 08:58 pm
7:59:03 PMRobbieF-tab this time we just wanted to 1) have bekah on the show (she can't do it unless we record) and 2) wanted to do a very heavy tech feature.
7:59:14 PM_Jot_ ajamison5579, wooden shoes are very cool!
7:59:45 PMRobbieF-tab They're cool? Must breathe well then.
7:59:46 PM_Jot_ swl_brasil, here it was like that too! But now it is 22c during the day
7:59:46 PMtic-toc until you get a splinter
7:59:47 PMajamison5579 _jot_ but they do not breathe well meaning your likely to have your feet feel on fire in wooden shoes with high heat
8:00:15 PM_Jot_ nature makes it cool down automaticly
8:00:42 PM_Jot_ seriously proper wooden shoes even wit socks are a lot cooler than you would think in summer
8:01:21 PMajamison5579 _jot_ ahh but you can not sneak up on people with wooden shoes or get near an open flame
8:02:03 PM_Jot_ ajamison5579, you don't need to sneak up on people if your open flame is large enough!
8:02:05 PMRobbieF-tab Yeah, just try tip-toeing through a corredor in wooden shoes ;)
8:03:26 PMswl_brasil big difference
8:03:59 PMDennis_Kelley Bekah is such a trooper!
8:04:21 PM_Jot_ Bekah is amazing. I do wonder who that guy is though
8:04:44 PM_Jot_ oh wait, that's Spock :)
8:04:52 PMRobbieF-tab LOL
8:05:05 PMDennis_Kelley RobbieF is amazing also! He is perfect for Bekah.
8:05:17 PMajamison5579 _jot_ he shows to much emotion to be a Vulcan even Spock
8:06:18 PMajamison5579 Damn it Jim get a Riko Magic not a Dell!
8:06:23 PMajamison5579 sorry could not resist
8:06:41 PM_Jot_ Bekah does have to say something about RobbieF in one of her fiction-books at least
8:07:12 PM_Jot_ it's funny to read books written by people you know cause you go 'hey, I know that person'
8:08:01 PM_Jot_ Bekah is also very polticial not responding to that last remark :)
8:08:11 PMRobbieF-tab Hahaha
8:08:34 PMswl_brasil thank you. great show. see you next week.
8:08:43 PM_Jot_ see you next week swl_brasil!
8:09:01 PMRobbieF-tab Thanks everyone!
8:09:07 PM_Jot_ nice show RobbieF
8:09:14 PMRobbieF-tab cheers
8:09:27 PMajamison5579 back to some Eurotruck simulator 2
8:09:36 PMtic-toc I think Bekah under married......
8:09:41 PMtic-toc lol
