| brycec | mnathani: xmonad is a tiling wm, which means (broadly speaking) windows equally share screen space maximally. ex: if you have 4 windows open, they all take up 1/4 of the screen. And some people prefer that (like me, at least on *nix systems. I just don't like it on Winders and OSX) | [02:25] |

RUDE AND RUDE. | [07:14] |
| staticsafe | heh | [07:14] |
| m0unds | double xp weekend for members in planetside = lots of new targets to kill
i was annoying high BR VS and TR players w/my reset NC character, capndelicious | [07:19] |
| staticsafe | yeah | [07:20] |
| m0unds | killed a couple BR100 MLG idiot pilots with a stock reaver w/airhammer (reaver shotgun) and got rage tells from them :) | [07:20] |
| staticsafe | i was wondering why i seemed to have suddenly gotten better, turns out a lot of lower BRs | [07:21] |
| m0unds | muahaha | [07:21] |
| staticsafe | but yeah i should try piloting again
repairing maxes all day gets old | [07:21] |
| m0unds | yeah
i get really tired of support stuff after a while. i gave up on squad/platoon stuff for a long time because it turns into REPAIR/HEAL ME NAOOOO | [07:22] |
| staticsafe | i need a gun with a lower recoil than the one I have currently | [07:23] |
| m0unds | i wish the corvus was available for VS engineers
that thing has absurdly manageable recoil and is pinpoint accurate | [07:24] |

| brycec | mercutio: There's a certain amount of functional overlap in all tiling wm's... I wouldn't say one is better than the other though, it all depends on your usage. Give 'em all a try and see what fits you best. | [09:55] |
| The big ones I know of are awesomewm (my current preference), xmonad (my previous preference, but I didn't like Haskell and awesome was being talked up quite a bit), i3 (pretty cool, but its global tagging didn't work well for me with multiple monitors)
There are plenty of others too, but I can't think of their names (I want to say spectrwm and stumpwm too, but can't recall of those are real and tiling) | [10:00] | |
| plett | I use i3wm (another tiling wm) now, after phlux in here mentioned it. | [10:12] |

| mercutio | brycec: i've only tried ion and awesome
but been using ion since 2001... i kind of want to try subtle when i tried googling | [16:44] |
| m0unds | gah, weechat keeps wigging out and drawing weird
it's like split at the 2/3 mark, and the whole right side of my terminal is filled with |............ | [16:47] |
| RandalSchwartz | tmux does that sometimes | [16:49] |
| m0unds | oh, ok, so it's tmux? | [16:50] |
| RandalSchwartz | are you using tmux? | [16:50] |
| m0unds | yep | [16:50] |
| mercutio | try resizing it slightly? | [16:50] |
| RandalSchwartz | yeah, if there are two windows to the same session, it can only paint the smallest window
so maybe you have it open twice? | [16:50] |
| m0unds | that's gotta be it
yeah | [16:50] |
| mercutio | oh what randal said makes more sense | [16:51] |
| m0unds | i do, on my workstation
yup now i know - small window open on my windows box upstairs haha | [16:51] |
| RandalSchwartz | heh | [16:51] |
| mercutio | i've had some kind of screen corruption with weechat too | [16:51] |
| m0unds | terminal on my mac is screen width and drops down like the console in quake
yeah, i had corruption w/weechat and i resolved it with /window refresh | [16:51] |
| RandalSchwartz | yeah, I'm really liking tmux
never go back to scren screen too | [16:51] |
| m0unds | was just gonna try the steam streaming thing on my mac (from my pc)
just to check it out | [16:52] |
| RandalSchwartz | finally got all my ports rebuilt in poudriere | [16:52] |
| m0unds | nice - resolved the python thing? | [16:52] |
| RandalSchwartz | yeah,
now I just have to find a time to uninstall all the existing packages, and reinstall the new ones | [16:52] |

| jpalmer | RandalSchwartz: mosh + tmux + weechat = pure joy. | [17:21] |

mosh | [17:22] |
| jpalmer | there is just something amazing about being able to establish an ssh session, travelling between various networks with different IP's, different latencies, etc.. and never haing to re-establish the SSH session. just open up my laptop, and I'm instantly back in my session. | [17:23] |
| RandalSchwartz | yeah… mosh is cool | [17:26] |
| jpalmer | I have clients in alaska, with 1700ms round trip times, and 70% packet loss. mosh isn't cool.. its a necessity ;)
especially with --predict=experimental lol | [17:27] |
| RandalSchwartz | sounds like when I'm on a cruise ship
800 ms ping | [17:27] |
| jpalmer | it took me a bit of time to get used to the vi/vim visual artifact oddities with teh experimental prediction, but now it's second nature. | [17:28] |

| novae | So it's just like what, buffered screen over ssh? | [19:59] |
| brycec | No
though I'm having trouble explaining what it *is* but "screen" isn't part of it It's just a more reliable transport for high-latency/loss links It uses SSH to connect and authenticate with the remote host, then uses its mosh protocol (UDP) to transfer encrypted data In addition to a more resilient protocol, it features "prediction" for the client eg. rather than waiting for the 'g' you just typed to be drawn by the far-side, it draws the 'g' itself and it will update it once the far-end does. | [20:10] |

| CaZe | Why would you want that? | [23:51] |
| mnathani | Recursively copy files from one disk to another | [23:52] |
| up_the_irons | yeah, what is up with the multi thread req? | [23:52] |
| mnathani | My use case is a windows box that needs to be backed up before it can be re-formatted
normally I boot into a live linux disk and simply scp or tar the files to another location but this time I came across a machine with around 350 GB of files small and large and cp took almost 4 hours to complete to another local disk | [23:52] |
| CaZe | Threading would make it slower, if anything. | [23:54] |
| brycec | ^^
Easy to test - run several cp's concurrently, each handling a different subdirectory (or rsync, or tar|tar...) | [23:54] |
| mnathani | would multiple instances of an ftp client work, each set to skip if the file exists?
all the ftp clients set to upload the same directory to the same server | [23:56] |
| brycec | They'd probably run all over one another | [23:57] |
| CaZe | mnathani: What is the bottleneck in your use case? | [23:58] |
| brycec | (eg: they'd all say "XYZ doesn't exist" at the same) | [23:58] |
| mnathani | the single thread or process working on an individual file, one by one | [23:58] |
| CaZe | It's not i/o? | [23:58] |
| mnathani | CaZe: not i/o
if I was doing like one large file, more likely to hit i/o limit but 100,000 small files like few kb not so much | [23:59] |
