Wow, the mouse on the RPi installer is drunk as fuck
09:28
<&[R]>
... and it's still drunk post install too
09:30
<&[R]>
... and it has no fucking clue what a pipe character is D:
09:31
<&McMartin>
UK layout by default
09:38
<&[R]>
Which doesn't have | AFAICT
09:38
<&[R]>
I had to copy/paste it
09:42
<&McMartin>
Well, or you could run raspbi-config or whatever it's called and change your layout >_>
09:43
<&[R]>
Fair enough, ATM looking to try another distro because not a fan of debian, and the mouse is driving me nuts
09:44
<&McMartin>
My Pi doesn't run X at all, as it happens >_>
09:44
<&McMartin>
I use it to test programs that claim to work in consolefb
10:45
<@TheWatcher>
UK layout does have | - it's a separate key for \ | between left shift and z
10:48
< Mahal>
That only works with a physical UK keyboard though. US ones don't have a button there

http://gcc.godbolt.org/ https://github.com/mattgodbolt/compiler-explorer <-- this looks neat
11:28
<~Vorntastic>
"godbolt" is a great name too
11:29
<&[R]>
It's apparently his last name
11:29
<~Vorntastic>
Indeed

... I just got a screen and a half-high privacy popup for a fucking web based compiler toy. The world is sodding mad.

Things said about code: "when there is no more beer on the wall, the song is over."

Take one down, pass it around, UINT_MAX bottles of beer on the wall

I want to redirect foo.com to foo.net using DNS records. What's the proper way, so that the URL changes in the address bar?
15:14
<@abudhabi>
Hmm. I could delete the existing A record, and alter the CNAMEs to point to foo.net. I could change the A to point to foo.net's IP instead.
15:15
<~Vornicus>
With http redirects. I know that f'rinstance GoDaddy lets you set up a full strength forwarder that will do this for http and https and with all ...sub-thingies set up
15:15
<~Vornicus>
So foo.com/bar.html will redirect to foo.net/bar.html
15:16
<@abudhabi>
Why not use DNS?
15:17
<@abudhabi>
Hm. That's a thought, actually. I can look at how our foo.org is redirecting to foo.net and copy that.
15:17
<~Vornicus>
the DNS system doesn't inform the browser that the name is the right one
15:20
<@abudhabi>
Hmm. That's interesting. They just have an A record there pointing at the IP.
15:20 celmin|sleep is now known as celticminstrel
15:22
<@abudhabi>
Yeah, I think I'll try your method.
15:24
<@abudhabi>
Hah. index.php has an unterminated <?php tag.
15:24
<~Vornicus>
Intentional and a good idea
15:25
<@abudhabi>
Why?
15:26
<~Vornicus>
Terminating the final tag means any stuff after that tag shows up in the final source, including for instance newlines.

<@abudhabi>
Welp, it seems to work, thanks for your help!
16:57
<&[R]>
<abudhabi> Why not use DNS? <-- because DNS is literally incapable of doing that
16:58
<&[R]>
DNS has exactly one job: turn a domain name into a number
16:58
<&[R]>
(I'm purposely ignoring PTR and TXT and a whole bunch of stuff)
16:59
<&[R]>
It's not some magical protocol, it does one thing.
17:00
<&[R]>
HTTP on the otherhand likes to blur the ever living fuck out of that with its host header. The host header lets HTTP do a ton of weird shit that looks like DNS is involved, but it honestly isn't.
17:03
<&[R]>
(Giving this explaination becuase you've been clearly confused about what DNS is in the past)
