07:00:24 PMRobbieF1 :)
07:00:32 PMGarbee heh, I've been busy with work stuff too the past few months.
07:00:41 PMDJQuad SashaD did you get your roku yet? :)
07:00:43 PMGarbee Normally I'm heading to bed around this time.
07:00:55 PMGarbee DST seems to have kicked me back around to a normal schedule somehow this round.
07:01:10 PMDennis_Kelley hello KelseyJ
07:01:20 PMDennis_Kelley hello SashaD
07:01:32 PMagamotto For some reason, the only person in the department who wanted Tuesday evenings off didn't get them. So I moved over to Flooring, and all of a sudden Tuesday evenings off weren't a problem.
07:01:48 PMGarbee haha
07:01:48 PMRobbieF1 Hi all!
07:01:49 PMGarbee Nice.
07:01:58 PMagamotto Garbee: Bed?
07:02:09 PMDennis_Kelley Hello theChrista
07:02:14 PM_Jot_ hi RobbieF
07:02:19 PMGarbee agamotto: Yea... my sleep schedule got *messed* up.
07:02:25 PMagamotto Garbee: Rather early for someone your age
07:02:28 PMGarbee For like 5 years.
07:02:30 PMGarbee :P
07:02:37 PMGarbee nah, only about 2 and a half.
07:02:40 PMDennis_Kelley Hi RobbieF
07:02:50 PMGarbee Well, I didn't mind since in between 4AM and 7AM I got a whole days work done.
07:02:52 PMDJQuad h'loo RobbieF
07:02:53 PMGarbee :D
07:02:54 PMrevdjenk Hey sasha and kelseyj
07:03:15 PM_Jot_ RobbieF, can you back up the show a little bit?
07:03:31 PMSashaD Hahaha
07:03:43 PMrevdjenk I'm not showing the show on yet
07:03:48 PMnapa_polarbear hello all
07:04:01 PMKalecomm I'm seeing it on Roku no problem.
07:04:01 PMGarbee I've been doing a lot of work with the Chromium project the past few months.
07:04:04 PM_Jot_ its been going for about 5 minutes
07:04:06 PMGarbee Good stuff going on there.
07:04:18 PMGarbee revdjenk: Try refreshing the page.
07:04:19 PMDennis_Kelley hello Garbee
07:04:20 PMagamotto Garbee: I suppose, if I could move at those hours
07:04:27 PMtic-toc Why does my computer go beep beep beep when I back it up?
07:04:37 PMDennis_Kelley it snowed last night in MI
07:04:38 PMGarbee agamotto: For me it was more about less distractions.
07:04:48 PMKalecomm 18:04:45 here in Central Texas.
07:04:49 PMrevdjenk Garbee I'm casting it
07:04:59 PMGarbee Even closing mail, IRC, and other stuff... I get distracted a lot.
07:05:01 PMagamotto Garbee: chuckles
07:05:03 PMDJQuad lol tic-toc. that means it's working
07:05:10 PM_Jot_ so nice to see KelseyJ here and not TheChrista
07:05:33 PMMoe_Maravilla Hello!!!
07:05:33 PMDennis_Kelley is Christa RobbieF1
07:05:34 PMDreamer__ Just turned 1st april here - beware
07:05:46 PMSashaD That's beep beeping is stuck in my head. Darn backup day lol
07:05:48 PM_Jot_ you never know :)
07:05:56 PMagamotto Hmmm, I am still poking around with a Roku that was given to me.
07:06:03 PM_Jot_ happy april fools, SashaD
07:06:05 PMKelseyJ HI Folks
07:06:06 PMDennis_Kelley RobbieF you missed Dreamweaver909
07:06:08 PMagamotto Backup day? I just did mine 3 days ago...
07:06:13 PMRobbieF1 :)
07:06:14 PMKelseyJ Looks like my name today is KelseyJ
07:06:17 PMDJQuad what like beep beep beeeeep?
07:06:22 PMKelseyJ But I'm actually Christa
07:06:23 PM_Jot_ Of course KelseyJ!
07:06:33 PMagamotto iCloud... ahem. I won't say much
07:06:35 PM_Jot_ it's 1am on april 1st
07:06:46 PMGarbee KelseyJ: "/nick TheRealChrista"
07:06:50 PMGarbee IN case you forgot.
07:06:54 PMGarbee :P
07:06:57 PMtic-toc National beep beep day
07:07:03 PM_Jot_ more like /nick TheChrista
07:07:03 PMagamotto _Jot_: Feeling foolish?
07:07:25 PMrevdjenk_ tahdah, ok Garbee now its on
07:07:27 PMDennis_Kelley TheChrista is in the house!
07:07:32 PMagamotto Good PSA/advert
07:07:34 PMDJQuad agamotto well stop with the nude selfies and weak iCloud passwords
07:07:47 PMrevdjenk_ TheChrista: and SashaD hey from /me
07:07:58 PMSashaD Happy April fools!
07:07:58 PM_Jot_ hi TheChrista, long time no see :)
07:08:16 PMtic-toc chicken coop
07:08:18 PMrevdjenk_ SashaD: who are you calling a fool?
07:08:18 PMABQTKY Like I always ask, Backup? What's a backup??
07:08:18 PMSashaD To some now, others later :)
07:09:03 PMrevdjenk_ _Jot_: you are a fool already, eh? I mean it is already tomorrow there?
07:09:16 PMDJQuad rsync is the best backup software ever
07:09:16 PM_Jot_ Don't forget a backup is only backup if you can actually restore it to the original content
07:09:28 PMagamotto Speaking of such... has anyone here used something called Macrium Reflect with linux systems/partitions?
07:09:31 PM_Jot_ revdjenk, yep, it's tomorow here, so april 2nd
07:09:42 PMrevdjenk_ hee hee
07:10:04 PMGarbee Well, I'm gonna be board this episode.
07:10:14 PMrevdjenk_ yikes, SashaD !!
07:10:15 PMDJQuad it's not about good backups, it's about how easy it is to restore it
07:10:15 PMagamotto Planking?
07:10:19 PMMoe_Maravilla Wow!!! You guys are more than 24 hrs in the future!!!
07:10:34 PMMoe_Maravilla It's March 31st in the USA.
07:10:36 PMrevdjenk_ deja dup or mint backup, discuss!
07:10:41 PM_Jot_ ha,ha, april fools, its really 1am on april 1st
07:10:42 PMGarbee TheChrista: Good job reading the script!
07:10:52 PMrevdjenk_ _Jot_: yes, I got that!
07:10:57 PMDJQuad mint uses rsync, no?
07:11:36 PMrevdjenk_ _Jot_: my eldest granddaughter turns 30 today!
07:11:47 PMrevdjenk_ she is april fools baby
07:11:52 PM_Jot_ congratulations
07:12:03 PMGarbee How do you guys deal with inbox overload?
07:12:12 PMGarbee Just delete stuff that doesn't seem important right away?
07:12:16 PMagamotto Yep
07:12:37 PMKalecomm A friend of mine said that if you really want it, you need three copies!
07:12:40 PMagamotto I have - NOW, 1 DAY, 1 WEEK boxes...
07:12:40 PMGarbee I've signed up for more Chromium email lists, about to add more. Need to find a good system for weeding out what isn't relevant.
07:12:48 PMDJQuad sorting by subject and triage. lol
07:13:13 PMrevdjenk_ Garbee: yes, delete ds, or anything with pdf or graphics... those are usually largest. You should have saved the graphics already it they were important?
07:13:14 PMDennis_Kelley i always found pogoplug too slow
07:13:14 PMagamotto subject and filtering out anything with fwd:, etc...
07:13:27 PMDennis_Kelley might have to revisit using pogoplug
07:13:43 PMGarbee Can't filter fwd stuff. Those can actually be pretty damn important.
07:13:56 PMGarbee I guess I should just start finding keywords to filter out.
07:14:02 PMagamotto Garbee: Ahh, for me, 99% aren't
07:14:10 PMGarbee Like "service workers". I can safely kill like 98% of those emails.
07:14:12 PMrevdjenk_ agamotto: those are good hints, too
07:14:37 PMrevdjenk_ Garbee: facebook notices?
07:14:38 PMDJQuad if you use gmail, inbox.gmail.com is actually a pretty cool service
07:14:38 PMagamotto I also sort by priority of sender
07:14:45 PMGarbee agamotto: Yea. I am conversing with other technological people. We don't forward crap to each other.
07:14:59 PMGarbee revdjenk_: Not sure how FB came into anything...
07:15:07 PMrevdjenk_ hee hee Garbee
07:15:14 PMGarbee DJQuad: I use inbox on my gmail account. This is Chromium though, they haven't turned on inbox for us.
07:15:29 PMGarbee And that honestly still probably wouldn't help with my case.
07:15:37 PMrevdjenk_ I know some of those!
07:15:40 PMGarbee This address isn't really inbox-targeted.
07:15:52 PMagamotto I make a decent amount of money on the side from that 30%
07:16:08 PMGarbee agamotto: Problem with "priority of sender" is the sender in most cases is some bot. :/
07:16:18 PM_Jot_ SashaD, don't forget to put all your passwords here in the chatroom so you have a backup for when you need a password and forgot it or something
07:16:22 PMGarbee Because someone makes a commit or Code Review request.
07:16:39 PMrevdjenk_ SashaD: amazon has a new deal for $60us annual for unlimited backup... no charge for backing up unlimited pics
07:16:40 PMagamotto Garbee: Can't whitelist like I do? 'Family' book gets 1st priority, etc..?
07:17:13 PMGarbee I could whitelist to raise some senders up. In fact, would need to in order to get certain conversations that would otherwise just be removed.
07:17:13 PMrevdjenk_ _Jot_: hee hee
07:17:26 PMGarbee Good thinking on that one...
07:17:55 PMagamotto Garbee: It helps eliminate a lot of 'urgent' messages from the non-urgent extended family:)
07:18:08 PMGarbee hehe
07:18:16 PMGarbee I guess I'm just in a different boat with email.
07:18:23 PMrevdjenk_ 321 backups ... 3 backups, 2 on different media, 1 off site
07:18:23 PMGarbee More work related then family/friends.
07:18:36 PMSashaD Hahaha... My passwords are safer with you than me!
07:18:38 PMagamotto Baby shower announcements aren't 'urgent,' nor are discussions involving Facebook
07:18:40 PMGarbee So, can't do any strict whitelisting and such.
07:18:56 PMagamotto Garbee: hrm
07:19:22 PMDJQuad on my windows boxes (and the vboxes on them) carbonite works well for me
07:19:26 PMrevdjenk_ 42 in chat!
07:19:53 PMGarbee But, what I can do is kill email based on keywords that appear repeatedly I don't care for, Like service workers.
07:20:11 PMagamotto That sounds like a good start
07:20:15 PMpadd3-45 hi
07:20:18 PMGarbee Then, whitelist certain users so if an email thread has a keyword that auto-archives but this user shows up, the thread is brought into my view.
07:20:27 PMSashaD Revdjenk, I don't know how to even start!
07:20:42 PMDJQuad Garbee have you tried squirrelmail?
07:20:54 PMGarbee Or whitelist certain keywords so if one set of keywords I am interested in appears with an auto-archive one, pull up the conversation due to whitelist.
07:20:59 PMGarbee DJQuad: Won't help here one bit.
07:21:10 PMGarbee No spam, this is all relevent stuff I've signed up for (Mailing Lists.)
07:21:19 PMGarbee Just trying to brainstorm ways to handle the excessive load.
07:21:22 PMagamotto Hmmm... I keep one external drive in the safety deposit box, one at home, and rotate them out at payday, so at worst I could lose two weeks worth of whatever.
07:21:29 PMDJQuad there are plugins that seem to do what you want
07:21:54 PMGarbee gmail's filtering will handle it all from what has been brought up so far.
07:21:58 PM_Jot_ it would be very comforting to automatically curl up in a little ball indeed
07:21:58 PMagamotto Stuff like photos and music, I put on DVDs as a semi-permanent storage.
07:22:32 PMtic-toc They have maple syrup in Canada? who knew....
07:22:32 PMGarbee I'm just looking at an inbox that was like ~30 emails a day (Issues only) and is now balooning at ~120 a day. And going to add more lists soon which will increase the load probably 3-fold from that.
07:22:37 PMrevdjenk_ SashaD: amazon.com or dropbox.com or google drive or carbonite choose a service, you will have a certain amount free to begin with in all of these services, then make an account, and start saving/copying files to your new account.
07:22:48 PMagamotto Garbee: wow
07:23:11 PMDennis_Kelley _Jot_ i wish i could roll in a ball and roll around all over! it would be cool!
07:23:12 PMGarbee Amazon Drive, Dropbox, and Google Drive are not backups alone. Always duplicate between their services as well just in case of failure.
07:23:22 PMGarbee Failure or account suspension.
07:23:26 PMagamotto What, duplicate Ducatis?
07:23:49 PMGarbee agamotto: Yea, and those numbers are *one* email address of my 3 primary accounts (one account has like 4 addresses forwarding into it as well.)
07:23:53 PMagamotto Just make sure you encrypt when using a 'service'
07:23:56 PMrevdjenk_ Garbee: yes, I use multiple accounts...
07:24:05 PMGarbee Lots of email, most of it actually relevant in some capacity.
07:24:32 PMagamotto That is more than I could probably deal with
07:24:53 PMGarbee Google Drive encrypts data at rest for you. At least for Apps subscribers.
07:26:06 PMagamotto I did turn on the encryption on my smartphone that I finally upgraded to.
07:26:16 PMtic-toc I don't trust Google... too many visits to the white house for me
07:26:59 PMagamotto We must be a weird family... we stuff like negatives in safety deposit boxes.
07:27:11 PMrevdjenk_ tic-toc: you've been reading wrong sources....
07:27:25 PMtic-toc No I haven't
07:27:27 PMGarbee tic-toc: Yea, most of that was video guys for the Hangouts they do.
07:27:32 PMnapa_polarbear every ones life is an open book:P
07:27:36 PMrevdjenk_ tic-toc: they were working on ACA web site
07:27:39 PMMoe_Maravilla I'm in the process of scanning hundres of thousands of my negatives.
07:27:44 PMGarbee And seriously, what major company doesn't visit the government agencies regularly?
07:28:07 PMagamotto I would imagine they are visited more likely
07:28:16 PMrevdjenk_ SashaD: is SO far away!
07:28:17 PMDennis_Kelley Go SashaD
07:28:42 PMtic-toc 250 times is a little more than regularly
07:28:45 PMagamotto I sure hope Roku doesn't do that... not good to tork off the user base
07:28:49 PM_Jot_ wow, SashaD has a bigger studio than RobbieF
07:29:25 PMagamotto I wonder if Robbie could put her in the ISN studio from Babylon 5?
07:30:02 PMnapa_polarbear cant get into one pat on my 3g, said root
07:30:43 PMtic-toc They should ask Hillary Clinton...
07:30:47 PMagamotto hahahhaaha
07:31:15 PMagamotto Which begs the question - why isn't email protocol encrypted by default?
07:31:58 PMKalecomm Agamotto, it's so that the NSA can more easily intercept and look at it.
07:32:20 PMDJQuad because the internet in general isn't encrypted. it wasn't built for encryption in mind
07:33:04 PMagamotto Is it something that is or will be part of IPv6?
07:34:10 PMagamotto Would you expect anything else from the company who has the Death Star as their logo?
07:34:59 PM_Jot_ email is a protocol that has nothing to do with IPv6
07:35:13 PMKalecomm Indeed, agamotto! AT&T sucks!
07:35:15 PMagamotto ahhh
07:35:17 PMtic-toc Exactly what Google does to everyone
07:35:44 PMrevdjenk_ tic-toc: you need either more tinhat material or far less!
07:35:49 PM_Jot_ and email never got encrypted, because when email was invented in the 60s, there wasn't the computer-power or requirement for it
07:36:26 PMagamotto I must have a large FBI or NSA file... I encrypt a lot of stuff
07:36:42 PMDJQuad IPv6 has some possibilities for better encryption, but it's generally just because IPv4 IPs are quickly running out
07:36:46 PMKalecomm That's because you're smart, agamotto!
07:36:56 PMrevdjenk_ _Jot_: besides the early net exchanges were almost on a restricted limited internet
07:37:22 PMagamotto Nah, DuckDuckGo
07:37:23 PM_Jot_ yeah, you even had to type the bangpath yourself
07:37:29 PMtic-toc revdjenk -- you are clueless if you thing google doesn't track you
07:37:56 PMrevdjenk_ tic-toc: not clueless, not so worried...
07:38:06 PMrevdjenk_ I guess
07:38:27 PMDJQuad http://www.techopedia.com/definition/27310/super-cookie
07:38:33 PMagamotto Flush all of your cookies with each session
07:38:39 PMrevdjenk_ I'd worry more about MS which is known for having human readers!
07:39:08 PM_Jot_ I'm more worried about Siri and Cortana listening to everythng and blabbing about it to her co-workers
07:39:11 PMagamotto Another store for Canadians to boycott...
07:39:33 PMrevdjenk_ _Jot_: hee hee... then they talk behind your servers!
07:39:35 PMtic-toc You really think MS is paying people to read everyone's web traffic...lol
07:39:57 PMagamotto RobbieF: Sadly, that is now the American way of making people redundant.
07:40:09 PMrevdjenk_ didn't mean to say happened to everyone.... but they have revealed that they have done that
07:40:49 PMKalecomm Never heard of Future Shop...but I understand the feeling Sasha has. Radio Shack was kinda the same for me.
07:40:54 PMDennis_Kelley Category5.tv and Samuel Adams - Summer Ale
07:40:55 PMtic-toc I trust no one... but i trust Google the least
07:41:00 PMDennis_Kelley its a great day
07:41:58 PMagamotto Gaming mouse... hrm
07:41:59 PMKalecomm You're forgetting the costs of keeping two stores in close proximity open, Sasha.
07:42:18 PMDJQuad there are many reasons why amazon offers affiliate links ;)
07:42:21 PMSmokyjoe I stopped going to best buy a long time ago Same with Fry's. Amazon is the king.
07:43:06 PMrevdjenk_ tic-toc: you are running Linux, correct?
07:43:18 PMtic-toc Sometimes
07:43:29 PMnapa_polarbear kbuntu
07:43:38 PMrevdjenk_ There's part of your problem!
07:43:49 PMtic-toc why is that
07:44:20 PMDJQuad as a gamer, http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AAS888S is the only way to roll
07:44:44 PMrevdjenk_ I'd really be worried running windows...
07:44:45 PMDennis_Kelley RobbieF are you going to go over installing Duplicati?
07:44:49 PMtic-toc Your ISP see's everything you do. your operating system means nothing
07:44:54 PMKalecomm I use a Logitech M570 Wireless trackball...bought from Amazon.com.
07:45:09 PMagamotto What models are considered 'legacy?'
07:45:18 PMrevdjenk_ tic-toc: correct, we should really worry about the isp, first and foremost.
07:45:40 PMtic-toc ISP ='s NSA
07:45:44 PMDJQuad legacy meaning 2 and 1?
07:45:53 PMrevdjenk_ but ms is nsa friendly...
07:45:59 PMDennis_Kelley does anyone know how to delete channels on Roku
07:46:02 PMtic-toc They all are
07:46:20 PMagamotto Why would I do that when they are coming out with the 4 sometime this summer/fall?
07:46:39 PMrevdjenk_ hee hee
07:46:51 PMagamotto Dennis_Kelley: Option star button, then remove
07:47:41 PMDennis_Kelley does not seem to delete. what about adding channels? they do not show on my list
07:47:59 PMDennis_Kelley I will look after the show
07:48:12 PMrevdjenk_ Dennis_Kelley: you obviously need a 4 yr old!
07:48:22 PMagamotto Adding would be going to the Channel Store
07:48:24 PMDJQuad roku is going after the iphone model. you'll need a new one every 2 years
07:48:24 PMDennis_Kelley revdjenk true say!
07:48:54 PM_Jot_ SashaD, now I want to see the purse :)
07:48:55 PMrevdjenk_ slight!?
07:49:04 PMDJQuad Dennis_Kelley try the web interface
07:49:10 PMDennis_Kelley agamotto tried that, seems like it does not show on my list in roku
07:49:16 PMrevdjenk_ _Jot_: and what's in it!!
07:49:16 PMtic-toc linux was forced to make their kernels so the NSA could track them too .
07:49:24 PMDennis_Kelley DJQuad i do that
07:49:28 PMagamotto Dennis_Kelley: interesting... not sure
07:49:42 PMDJQuad there's an X to delete em
07:49:45 PMDennis_Kelley i will look into after show
07:49:57 PMrevdjenk_ tic-toc: not according to Linus... but I'm sure they have ways
07:49:58 PMDennis_Kelley anyone available to assist after show
07:50:26 PMDJQuad yep no worries
07:50:35 PMtic-toc Sorry but you're 100% wrong. It was Linus who said it was true
07:50:48 PMrevdjenk_ here you go Dennis_Kelley !
07:51:06 PMtic-toc He said no but shook his head yes...look it up
07:51:31 PMrevdjenk_ other way round....
07:51:55 PM_Jot_ that was about being contacted by the NSA, it wasn't about altering the kernel
07:52:14 PMrevdjenk_ correct, _Jot_
07:52:34 PMtic-toc The kernel was compromised for the NSA
07:52:38 PMKalecomm NSA is the author of SELinux.
07:52:53 PMDJQuad superduper is great for macs
07:52:55 PMrevdjenk_ correct Kalecomm
07:52:56 PMSashaD I'm still going to buy a Roku, I just don't love the idea of things being obsolete so soon
07:53:31 PMKalecomm I agree with you, SashaD. My name is Keith. We spell that: C-H-E-A-P! ;)
07:53:45 PMrevdjenk_ Kalecomm: hee hee
07:53:49 PMtic-toc If you want to be tracked instantly by the NSA use tails linux.. Red flag for them
07:53:58 PMSashaD That's how I spell my name too!
07:54:30 PMSmokyjoe Sasha: how old is your phone?
07:54:53 PMBobK54 SashaD - I'm with you! I have an HP55 hand calculator I use on a daily basis....from 1985. Works great!!
07:55:07 PM_Jot_ everybody gets tracked all the time, its what they do with the information which matters
07:55:10 PMBobK54 excuse me....TI-55
07:55:12 PMrevdjenk_ RobbieF: does duplicati do backups automatically
07:55:15 PMDJQuad SashaD I *think* they were referring to versions 1 and 2. v3 was basically a complete rewrite but v4 is seen as a money-grab. we'll see
07:56:35 PMtic-toc I agree everyone is tracked - no matter what OS you use. Your ISP knows all
07:57:09 PMSashaD Smokeyjoe I see where you are going with this, but I don't want everything to be like my phone. I purposely switched from Apple for that reason
07:57:14 PM_Jot_ So, SashaD, you shall nowforth be known as SashaCheap
07:57:18 PMDJQuad tic-toc for sure. super cookies are a thing
07:57:56 PMrevdjenk_ RobbieF: so other Linux backups work the same way, with same capabilities. What makes duplicati your choice?
07:58:15 PMrevdjenk_ is it the cross OS capability?
07:58:58 PMrevdjenk_ _Jot_: or just Sacheep
07:59:27 PMrevdjenk_ Sacheap
07:59:37 PM_Jot_ SoCheap?
07:59:41 PMtic-toc wow 8 already
07:59:52 PMDJQuad it's more user-friendly with a pretty interface. rsync is fine if you're familiar with the command-line.
07:59:53 PMrevdjenk_ tic-toc: i noticed that too!
08:00:07 PMBobK54 Grsync is good
08:00:22 PMSashaD I'm trying not to laugh out loud :)
08:00:26 PMrevdjenk_ DJQuad: Mintbackup or deja dup are about the same
08:00:26 PM_Jot_ revdjenk, I think also because its open source
08:00:43 PMSashaD See.... Now you know why I love Linux :) :)
08:00:44 PMrevdjenk_ _Jot_: thanks for that
08:00:48 PMDJQuad yep they both use rsync
08:00:58 PMrevdjenk_ DJQuad: yes
08:01:21 PMrevdjenk_ SashaD: and why we love you!
08:01:50 PMDJQuad the command-line is a pain in the butt. many prefer a GUI
08:02:03 PM_Jot_ revdjenk, it doesn't list the source, but if you click you want to contribute, it goes to a google page that has a source-link
08:02:49 PMrevdjenk_ _Jot_: I probably wouldn't use it because uses mono
08:02:53 PMSashaD Thank you :) I truly love being a part of this show.... Even if sometimes I lose my place on the teleprompter
08:03:48 PMrevdjenk_ yes, .com
08:04:03 PMagamotto Out of curiosity: How would a dual-boot user use something like Duplicati to back up to an external drive?
08:05:19 PMrevdjenk_ agamotto: it runs the three main OS... so that is in its favor
08:05:56 PMtic-toc AOMEI has a good backup & clone program for free
08:06:06 PMGarbee RobbieF1: I'll lose it all.
08:06:09 PMGarbee Don't worry.
08:06:13 PMDJQuad agamotto they won't. it'll backup virtual drives / boxes but if you dual boot one boot doesn't know about the other in most cases
08:06:33 PMWhiskey_Zero RobbieF, thanks for another super program. Very interesting about Duplicati program, looks like an easy back-up solution.
08:06:38 PMDreamweaver909 :(
08:06:39 PMBobK54 night all !! see ya'll next week
08:06:48 PMnapa_polarbear bye now
08:06:49 PMrevdjenk_ DJQuad: use the linux side, then, to backup the MS side... assuming that is your dualboot setup
08:06:51 PMagamotto DJQuad: Ok, so for low-info users, not any different
08:06:59 PMRobbieF1 Thanks all!
08:06:59 PMnapa_polarbear quit
08:07:17 PMagamotto revdjenk: I would assume in most cases, yes
08:07:21 PMTheChrista Hey all! I hope you enjoyed the show!
08:07:45 PMrevdjenk_ TheChrista: if we could only get you to stop hogging the mic! hee hee
08:07:53 PM_Jot_ it was great to see you TheChrista
08:08:24 PMrevdjenk_ TheChrista: you have been working on a new job? about a year ago?
08:08:31 PMrevdjenk_ how is it going?
08:09:02 PMTheChrista Haha, It's not my fault that I'm so quiet, Robbie talks to much
08:09:08 PMrevdjenk_ hee hee
08:09:17 PMTheChrista A new job revdjenk?
08:09:45 PMDJQuad rev i actually do the opposite in most cases but i'm unique in this crowd since i'm a gamer. my primary os is windows but my work day is spent in virtual boxes running quite a few linux distros
08:09:46 PMrevdjenk_ I thought you were starting something new... it could be my bad memory!
08:10:23 PMTheChrista Nope, still giving my own business a fighting go
08:10:44 PMrevdjenk_ DJQuad: since Linux can read windows format, but windows cannot read Linux, then use the linux for the backup solution.
08:10:58 PM_Jot_ bye SashaD, TheChrista on the radio :P
08:11:04 PMrevdjenk_ maybe that was it, TheChrista !
08:11:41 PMrevdjenk_ how did two of me show up!?
08:12:05 PMTheChrista Welp, I hate to be a dine and dash kind of gal, but I gotta head home. Lots of work to do!
08:12:07 PMDJQuad windows reads linux fine as far as the vds files vboxes create. those are what i backup
08:12:19 PM_Jot_ have a great time TheChrista, hope to see you soon again
08:12:29 PM_Jot_ greetings to TheBrad :)
08:12:45 PMrevdjenk_ DJQuad: ah...
08:13:14 PMDJQuad have a great week all. again, shortest hour of the week!
08:13:29 PM_Jot_ you too DJQuad
08:14:20 PMrevdjenk_ DJQuad: the only time I work with windows, is when my secretary asks me to help her with problems... I now hear her saying "I hate Microsoft" with the same inflection I use!
08:14:58 PMagamotto Well, I must away... Isabella is demanding my attention
08:15:09 PMrevdjenk_ yay, isabella!
08:15:38 PMrevdjenk_ agamotto: I hope that isn't a euphemism!
08:16:14 PMRobbieF1 Thanks everyone! I have to reboot the server unfortunately, so I'll lose connectivity, but seeya soon! Hope you enjoyed the show!
08:16:20 PMagamotto No, my new puppy is Isabella... she is a Shih-Tzu/Poodle mix
08:16:40 PMagamotto She likes to play before she passes out for the night around 2030.
08:17:38 PMrevdjenk_ hee hee
08:17:43 PMrevdjenk_ bye
