| ikt | http://www.speedtest.net/global.php#0 | 02:33 |
| ikt | my line speed is in line with mexico -_- | 02:33 |

| sagaci | downloading squeeze at 130kB/s | 03:04 |
| ikt | nice | 03:05 |
| sagaci | because i'm too impatient to wait for it on aarnet | 03:06 |
| ikt | lol | 03:06 |
| ikt | I don't think node cares about the debian mirror | 03:09 |
| blahdeblah | iiNet has a good Debian mirror if you guys want something better. Just upgraded 4 of my VMs last night. | 03:10 |
| blahdeblah | http://ftp.iinet.net.au/debian/debian/ | 03:10 |
| ikt | yeah I just checked and saw then | 03:11 |
| ikt | which is how I came to the conclusion node doesn't care :P | 03:11 |
| ikt | and a quick search of 'debian' on the internode section of whirlpool | 03:11 |
| ikt | http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum/?action=threads_search&f=68&q=debian | 03:11 |
| ikt | blahdeblah, do you know how long it takes for stickers to get to adelaide :S still haven't received them | 03:12 |
| ikt | I don't send mail often so I'm unsure how long to wait | 03:12 |
| blahdeblah | ikt: I only sent them on Friday, so i would guess at least another day or so. | 03:27 |
| ikt | cheers :) | 03:29 |
| Phlosten | I think I am going to blow away this Windows 7 install and load up 64bit Ubuntu instead | 04:05 |
| Phlosten | windows 7 not working with my Belkin flip kvm anyway | 04:06 |
| ikt | :/ | 04:08 |
| Phlosten | windows 7 forces DDE or whatever it is, the belkin flip doesnt pass this info, so my monitor resolution becomes unavailable | 04:09 |
| Phlosten | handy hint, to burn cd the cd must be in the correct cd drive | 04:11 |
| Phlosten | high speed cd burn fail...next | 04:18 |
| kaushal | hi | 04:25 |
| kaushal | is there a way to set "Open Terminal" when i right click on the desktop on 10.10 ? | 04:26 |
| ikt | kaushal, as an option? | 05:40 |
| ikt | or as in, the moment you right click terminal opens up | 05:40 |
| kaushal | ikt: as an option | 05:41 |
| kaushal | like the default is open gedit file | 05:41 |
| kaushal | for example | 05:41 |
| ikt | hrmm good question | 05:43 |
| ikt | kaushal, have you tried nautilus actions? | 05:46 |
| kaushal | ikt: how do i use it ? | 05:47 |
| kaushal | I did added Nautilus Action Configuration | 05:48 |
| kaushal | but its not so user friendly | 05:48 |
| ikt | yeah | 05:49 |
| ikt | http://www.foogazi.com/2007/11/05/adding-shortcuts-to-the-right-click-menu-in-ubuntu/ | 05:50 |
| ikt | http://helpdeskgeek.com/linux-tips/add-shortcuts-to-right-click-context-menu-in-ubuntu/ | 05:51 |
| ikt | looks like it's the only way | 05:51 |
| ikt | kaushal, now you've got me trying to do it :P | 06:00 |
| kaushal | ikt: it doesnot work :/ | 06:10 |
| ikt | :/ | 06:14 |
| ikt | i'm trying to get this to work in natty | 06:14 |
| kaushal | ok | 06:15 |
| ikt | i've got it working in nautilus | 06:18 |
| ikt | but not on the desktop :/ | 06:18 |
| ikt | this is just impossible | 06:48 |
| ikt | kaushal, would it be ok if it is in a sub menu ? | 07:14 |
| ikt | http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=3083307&postcount=10 | 07:14 |
| ikt | works | 07:14 |
| ikt | but it's in a sub meni | 07:14 |
| ikt | what's everyone up to? | 09:10 |
| Phlosten | ikt: trying to take over the world again | 09:55 |
| head_victim | ikt: just about to head to bed, I trust I'll see you tomorrow night though? | 09:55 |
| ikt | yeah, I'll be online, going to talk to class teacher tomorrow, should only be an intro class, not to important | 09:57 |
| Phlosten | now making a cup of tea | 09:57 |
| head_victim | nisshh: you going to be around tomorrow night at 6pm WA time? | 09:58 |
| nisshh | for the meeting? yes | 09:58 |
| head_victim | nisshh: cool just checking, hadn't spoken to you in a while I don't think | 09:58 |
| Phlosten | so 10pm NSW time then? | 09:59 |
| nisshh | head_victim, im at home almost all the time now, since i didnt get accepted into tafe this semester :| | 09:59 |
| nisshh | yeah | 09:59 |
| head_victim | Phlosten: no, we moved it forward an hour to be 9pm NSW time to be more accomodating | 09:59 |
| Phlosten | nisshh: booga | 09:59 |
| nisshh | ive been very busy getting into shape, etc | 09:59 |
| Phlosten | oh yeah, we are +11 with DST | 09:59 |
| head_victim | Yeah it was decided to give it a try and see if it helped the turnout | 10:00 |
| nisshh | head_victim, the new time is no issue for me, even if i had tafe, i would get home 2 hours before the meeting started, so its cool | 10:00 |
| head_victim | Cool, just hoping it gets more people from the daylight savings areas involved. | 10:00 |
| nisshh | yeah | 10:01 |
| nisshh | head_victim, get everyone to move to WA, problem solved :) | 10:01 |
| head_victim | Hah speaking of which I hope you're not involved with the fires? I saw some southeast of Perth and I recall you were somewhere south of Perth? | 10:01 |
| Phlosten | I'd prefer to stay in this country, rather than move to Perth ;) | 10:02 |
| nisshh | head_victim, nah, the fires are right in south perth and im 90 minutes south of perth | 10:02 |
| nisshh | Phlosten, lol | 10:02 |
| head_victim | nisshh: ah ok I didn't see any scale on the map so I thought I'd check. | 10:03 |
| nisshh | yeah | 10:03 |
| head_victim | Anyway, I have to be awake at some god awful hour now that I'm back at work so I'm going to run away now, cheerio. | 10:03 |
| nisshh | head_victim, did i tell you i just got a digital TV finally? | 10:03 |
| nisshh | ok | 10:03 |
| nisshh | gnight :) | 10:04 |
| head_victim | nisshh: woohoo :D Welcome to the new age :D | 10:04 |
| nisshh | heh | 10:04 |
| nisshh | i feel modern now | 10:04 |
| head_victim | I have no digital tvs, only set top boxes. | 10:04 |
| head_victim | All the TVs in this house are CRTs. | 10:04 |
| head_victim | And now I'm really going, night all | 10:04 |
| ikt | laters | 10:05 |

| sagaci | email for meeting tomorrow night | 10:23 |
| ikt | nisshh, are you watching qanda? | 11:31 |
| nisshh | ikt, am i watching what? | 11:33 |
| nisshh | what is qanda? | 11:34 |
| ikt | http://www.abc.net.au/tv/qanda/ | 11:34 |
| nisshh | ikt, my net is slow, which channel is it on? | 11:35 |
| nisshh | and what is it about? | 11:35 |
| ikt | which city are you in? | 11:36 |
| ikt | it starts at 9:30 local i think | 11:36 |
| nisshh | oh right | 11:36 |
| ikt | 9:30est | 11:36 |
| nisshh | yeah, it just started here then | 11:36 |
| nisshh | but i cant get ABC2 or 3 | 11:37 |
| nisshh | i have a crappy arial | 11:37 |
| nisshh | im assuming its on ABC2 | 11:37 |
| * nisshh checks | 11:37 | |
| sagaci | kinda of a boring ep | 11:39 |
| nisshh | uh, no, it must be on ABC2 | 11:39 |
| nisshh | all i have is news on ABC1 currently | 11:39 |
| sagaci | it just finished | 11:39 |
| nisshh | oh right | 11:39 |
| sagaci | on abc1 in nsw | 11:39 |
| nisshh | oh ok | 11:39 |
| nisshh | it must have finished here too | 11:40 |
| ikt | sagaci, really? | 11:41 |
| ikt | I thought it was pretty good | 11:41 |
| ikt | not as much bickering as I thought it would | 11:42 |
| ikt | but I was mainly hoping for nisshh to see it because of what they said about the wikileaks guy | 11:42 |
| sagaci | 50% was random crap about floods and levies, the remaining 50% random bites of minor topics | 11:43 |
| sagaci | prefer it when they get decent answers and cover 5 to 6 issues well | 11:43 |
| ikt | hrm | 11:46 |
| ikt | I thought they covered it quite well | 11:46 |
| ikt | you can't just go and tax a mining industry | 11:47 |
| ikt | and force them to change their ways | 11:47 |
| ikt | if Australia wants to reduce its usage of coal and other major polluters it has to do it by itself | 11:47 |
| sagaci | it's not just about Australia's usage of coal | 11:56 |
| ikt | go on... | 12:00 |
| sagaci | well regardless if Australia stopped using coal *tomorrow*, they're still going to dig it up at the same rate and sell it o/s | 12:00 |
| sagaci | and burn it | 12:01 |
| ikt | indeed | 12:05 |
| ikt | however Australia would be off the hook climate change wise, and could suggest to other countries to follow | 12:05 |
| ikt | depending on how buggered the country is | 12:05 |
| sagaci | sif anyone will do anything about it | 12:08 |
| sagaci | i'm no climate scientist | 12:10 |
| ikt | yeah I don't know anyone who is :( | 12:11 |
