Bearing in mind that beer and computers don't always mix that well - 
especially in crowded spaces with lots of trailing wires etc - a drunken LAN 
party might not be all that wise.

A reasonably sober LAN party with added takeaway sounds like fun though.  :-)

Also, just watched the Hunger Games 1080p x264-encoded mp4 on a Raspberry Pi 
and it worked flawlessly. No scrolling issues, not stuttering, no sync 
problems. Great quality picture (pity about the film).

Then I put on a normal DVD, and it's a completely different story! I guess 
this is due to the Broadcom graphics chip and hardware acceleration? I'm not 
really fussed as I already have a clapped out, archaic DVD player for 
playing 'legacy' formats. ;^)

 Morning,

I'm not sure how many of you will be on the Studio school's mailing list
:-) but given they've got RMS coming to talk next week I thought it might
be of interest...

Cheers,

Adrian.

You know, we could have a key signing party one evening. Maybe we should
also show the way and start using encrypted mailing lists ;)

That would be cool. You’re lagging a bit though mate - I suggested a crypto-party four weeks ago ;-)

An encrypted mailing list is a bit of an oxymoron. It’s also difficult to work with. The only way it would work is if the mailing list server had a copy of everyone’s public keys and then auto-encrypted using said keys. That’s not very secure, for a compromised server means an easy MITM attack.

Anyhow, I need some assistance and I think you may know a bit of stuff ;)

I have a new wordpress setup and I want to be able to mess around on my
local machine (ie dev) and then publish to the web. Any ideas ?

Ok, I thought I'd start the Christmas cracker jokes early.

The LUG Christmas meet will be this Thursday evening (11th) at the Funky
Aardvark. The plan will be for us to have a takeaway there, so everyone is
free to choose what you want.

After a couple of months of server-side talk, I thought that a nice
'lighter' topic for our meet could be desktop environments. Some of us had
a brief chat about this last month and I think it would be really
interesting to find out what everyone uses in a bit of a show & tell. I've
always found it interesting to hear what others use and their experience
with different WMs. Any experiences anything from full flashy interfaces to
light minimalist designs would be good. Any thoughts on that?

A word of warning, there's going to be a big parade going through the
centre on Thursday evening meaning parking might be tricky, so be prepared
to drive around for parking spaces!

Cryptography is hard to get right. The best solution is to generate a password protected 4096 bit RSA key and publish the finger print to a Twitter account people know you by. Facebook also works. That way, people and verify a finger print is yours based on your Tweet/Facebook. Obviously then publish the public key to pgp.mit.edu <http://pgp.mit.edu/> and you’re done. Don’t try and invent your own scheme.

Vagrant + Ansible, my friend. I think you’re trolling me now. Has someone let you use a computer drunk? :P

LOL! Well they've stuck with the same interface as long as Windows XP so it
should be very familiar by now!

Still at least it sits well with viewing lolcats :-)

No, I am being serious! Wordpress is not my thing at all. Maybe I need an
ansible refresher. We don't all use it all day mate!

I think Steve is the best person to speak about this as he works a lot with
Wordpress.

There are a few plugins that claim to do something similar to what you want
but I've never tested them. You can use the WordPress export and then
import functions to copy content over, but it's not that straight forward
sometimes.

What are you looking to test? You can do quite a lot with draft pages in
WordPress if you're playing with new pages etc.

Stuart’s MBP has a nice silent feature. It doesn’t make a single noise. The fans don’t even spin. Innovative!

Some of us had a brief chat about this last month and I think it would be really interesting to find out what everyone uses in a bit of a show & tell. I've always found it interesting to hear what others use and their experience with different WMs. Any experiences anything from full flashy interfaces to light minimalist designs would be good. Any thoughts on that?

Yes I use digital Ocean for Wordpress at the moment. I use rsync to keep
files in sync and version controlled on PC, then rsync to push changes to
live sites (leaving out just 2 files wp-config.php and .htaccess as these
have instance specific data in).



Then I do a database dump/import and use the amazing searchreplace.php
script to do a ‘smart’ find and replace for all the URL’s buried in the
database. Smart because it solves the issue of serialised data where the
length of the URL matters.

PS the $5 instance will only support a few sites (512MB).. I have to
upgrade after a while

Subject: [Chester LUG] Ubuntu boot problem
Message-ID: <CANHtLZ-5ycauDCJ1-_EHFE1v1hHbvwFWodjDBZ7Ef-M0+KSL2Q@mail.gmail.com>

Hi guys,

Really sorry I haven't been in touch for ages or attended any of the meets
for a few months. I finally have a dedicated linux box now to have a play
with. I installed Ubuntu 14.10 on a laptop, but it has a strange issue
whereby if I restart it or on the first cold boot, it gets past the BIOS
screen but then the screen goes blank.

If I hard power off and power on I then get GRUB and it boots into the OS
without any issues - have I missed something here or is something amiss?


Dave

There’s a Nandos near by - I suggest we do a hit and run on the place. They’ll never suspect that we fled the scene and traveled a mere 20 metres away and up one level!!

That's a very good point, I suspect they won't have a lot. So maybe plastic
cutlery would be good. Is anyone near a supermarket / pound shop today? Not
sure if I'll get a chance to get the chance.

I’ll go Tesco today and grab some paper plates, plastic forks, etc. Leave it with me. I’ll automate this task!

Sounds about right to me. Just need to turn it off and turn it back on again. 
Usually works!

Have you tried installing Google Ultron?

I think some paper plates, plastic forks and knifes should suffice :-)

That is a strange one, does it sound like anything is loading in the
background when the screen goes blank? That's assuming you have a spinning
disk in there...just realised that SSDs are ruining that check now!!

I've just been into town and dropped some plastic cutlrey and paper plates off 
at the FA. Jay tells me they have plenty there already. They have even more 
there now.

The paper plates are silvered. Could you use them as wifi receivers, like some 
kind of can-tenna?

Sorry guys, not going to be able to make it. Got home and fell asleep on the sofa. Just woke up. Clearly I'm working too hard ;-)

Have a great night, Christmas, and New Year, and I'll see you in January for a CryptoParty? 

All the best,  Mike

The website might not look the best, but I've always had great service from
them. I've probably bought about 10+ servers from them and each time they
arrived next day with no problems.

There was an "s" missing from the first URL. Its a totally different
company.

Happy Christmas all,

From: benarnold at fsfe.org (Ben Arnold)

Subject: [Chester LUG] https://identi.ca
Message-ID: <20141212213534.GA28055@Sammy>

Evening,


What an excellent idea for an "alternative" Christmas meal (not because
I'm still not hungry) - big thanks to all organisers, hosts & company.

There was a whiff of interest in "that other Twitter type thing that's
not" so if thy dear reader is interested, allow me to explain (bore) a
couple of the best things IMHO.

GNU Social (formerly StatusNet, formerly Laconi.ca) is a decentralised
(the site code can handle multiple sites) and federated (one/multiple
networks communicating by a common message protocol). The most populous
instance was Identi.ca; it migrated to a new 'engine' PumpIO, powered by
ActivityStreams, which is also a decentralised and federated protocol.

What I actually love about it: ActivityStreams means that not just notes
can be posted. The primary feed (the main column) is indeed only notes
and images as they're *super* easy to display fully (no reason why any
other activity can be put there if the site/instance knows how to). The
Meanwhile (secondary) column is all the other activities; seldom have I
see anything other than wrote/favourited/deleted a note/image/comment,
but some more involved community members post other activities. Either
way, posts use the "actor verb object" pattern:
  Actor  Verb     Object       DisplayText
  Robin  write    a note       "Robin wrote a note"
  Les    post     a picture    "Les posted "River Dee in snow""
  Stuart shutdown 10.40.21.123 "10.40.21.123 went down"
  Ben    travel   2C42         "Ben travelled from Chester to Sandhills"

The display text is a arbitrary HTML string, so "note" could hyperlink
to the note itself, "10.40.21.123" may not hyperlink to that server but
perhaps the company service status page, and "Chester to Liverpool" may
hyperlink to the journey status on National Rail / Realtime Trains. Hush
but I'm in the middle of making a webapp to make it really easy to post
any activity I think useful (expanding my current Ruby scripts).

There is even more to this that I won't go into now; for example that
private messages are possible as they are just notes with only one
recipient, so only the creator and recipient can see and reply to it.
Public and "only Followers" posts use special recipients that the PumpIO
engine identifies and delivers accordingly. Nifty.

Hopefully there's something there of interest, or at least shows why I
like it.


Happy New Year and the other thing,
Ben

I am simultaneously interested and confused.

How does this compare to something like RSS?

Is that a really stupid question?

A dangerous combination... for everyone but yourself :)

Not at all. Indeed there's feeds of stuff, but that's as far as it goes.

RSS is a standard way of consuming a feed of items: a document (XML)
format that defines how to link to an item and provide a bit of detail
(title, body, published date) - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS#Example
You may have software to consume the feed document, and it regularly
requests an updated list of it's items.

ActivityStreams are, simply, a much richer definition for the Item. It's
the document format that Pump.io uses to serialise activities. Stuff can
be added at will: the data published in Les' post may describe his
camera (a "device" maybe with it's name and manufacturer/product URL)
and where he took the photo (a "place" that has an "address" and the
lat/long/alt "position"). If a really good Pump.io website or app - it's
a protocol, the websites can represent it however they want - understood
what a "place" was then it could draw a map and pin. That extra "place"
info will literally be tacked on the end of the post data. What could
RSS display of all this? Just the title, a blurb of text and URL to the
post (https://identi.ca/note/wfohb2obr23 or whatever).

(The federation and decentralisation features aren't really relevent in
this reply focussing on data formats.)


Goodnight,
Ben

Hi all,

Hope you all have a good Christmas break. I've just had an invite for a
OnePlus One phone, but it has to be used in 24 hours!

If you fancy getting a phone please let me know ASAP!

sim phone.
