| tjaalton | bryce: thanks, although we are just one group out of ten that are in this | 00:25 |
|---|---|---|
| tjaalton | the record is some 214 hours, and we are trying to do 240 (ie. ten days) | 00:25 |
| tjaalton | and we had to do 24h, still 13.5h left but I just got home and left other to finish it off | 00:26 |
| tjaalton | I took some pictures to prove it, but we'll see how long it takes to actually get them published (same hold to the photos I took at UDS :) | 00:27 |
| bryce | awesome | 02:51 |
| bryce | tjaalton: my girlfriend is big into karaoke (karaoketerri@yahoo.com) | 02:51 |
| ubotu | New bug: #39530 in wacom-tools (main) "xorg.conf "TPCButton" option does not work" [Medium,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/39530 | 05:13 |
| tjaalton | bryce: heh, so you should get singstar, it's great fun :) | 07:05 |
| bryce | heh maybe | 07:05 |
| tjaalton | there is some freeware game for windows available, maybe for linux too | 07:06 |
| tjaalton | like the frets on fire is a version of guitar hero | 07:06 |
| tjaalton | ultrastar-ng, hmm | 07:07 |
| tjaalton | ..and it's apt-get'able ;) | 07:08 |
| bryce | heh | 07:08 |
| bryce | yeah we don't have any windows in my house anymore | 07:08 |
| bryce | well, except for the ones you see through | 07:09 |
| tjaalton | I've got two installations, one on the laptop for a car diagnostics program, and one on the desktop that I can't even boot :) | 07:09 |
| tjaalton | but I'd really like to play something again, so PS3 is on the list | 07:10 |
| bryce | you know, for the style of games I like (turn based strategy like civilization, HOMM, etc.) the don't really make those anymore, even for Windows | 07:12 |
| bryce | I do have a windows hard drive in a drawer with a bunch of older strategy games installed | 07:13 |
| bryce | but linux actually has a sufficient number now, and I found a Linux ported version of HOMM by Loki on an auction site earlier, so I'm fairly well set. Plus a lot of them run under wine now. | 07:14 |
| bryce | but I don't know, I don't really play games as much as I used to | 07:14 |
| tjaalton | same here, ENOTIME :) | 07:15 |
| tjaalton | but the kids are getting bigger (3 and 1y atm), so there's an excuse to get a console | 07:15 |
| tjaalton | yeah wine is getting better and better | 07:16 |
| bryce | nice | 07:16 |
| tjaalton | I should get a new display card because the radeon 8500 can't drive 1920x1200 (getting a new monitor as well), so I can't decide should I get a nvidia 7xxx which can do 3D right now (blob), or a modern radeon which will take a while until it can do the same | 07:19 |
| bryce | I'd ordered a pair of new widescreen monitors, but the order got canceled (insufficient stock on hand) | 07:21 |
| tjaalton | I missed a great deal of a Benq 24" monitor this week, it has the same problems | 07:24 |
| tjaalton | some pics, maybe a bit too small: http://users.tkk.fi/~tjaalton/singstar/ | 07:42 |
| tjaalton | powered by ubuntu (my ancient T23) :) | 07:44 |
| tjaalton | oh, there's a bigger version of every pic if you click on it.. this is the first webfolder I've created with the bibble :) | 07:44 |
| bryce | awesome, I can show these to terri :-) | 07:47 |
| tjaalton | of course :) | 07:54 |
| tjaalton | the first picture is a duet of "Smoke on the Water" (Deep Purple) | 07:57 |
| bryce | cool | 07:57 |
