=== Kaia is now known as Guest30821 [13:21] afternoonings everyone, [20:29] evening all. [20:29] noswaith dda p_masho [20:29] Evenin' [20:30] noswaith dda ianto [20:30] Ti'n iawn brobostigon? [20:32] ianto: not too shabby, but could be better, tired and frustrated, and not sleeping properly, how abou you? [20:33] brobostigon: Using workflowy.com to organise the next few days of my computing programming project (deadline Friday) [20:33] I've also registered sgwrsio.co.uk lately for a project [20:33] :) [20:34] fin hapus now catref.. a connection... [20:35] * p_masho BT is a horrendous company to deal with as an IT developer caught between BT inbound "support?" and an MD ripping what is left of his hair out... anyway.. [20:35] Noswaith dda ^_^ [20:35] arthurL: I am disappoint :( [20:35] ? [20:35] arthurL: YOu weren't at Hacio'r Iaith [20:36] noswaith dda arthurL :) [20:36] is there a meeting coming up in Aberystwyth? or have I missed it ? [20:36] ianto: When was this? [20:36] Noswaith dda, brobostigon :) [20:36] arthurL: 28/01/11 [20:37] p_masho: There was an event called Hacio'r Iaith at Aberystwyth, a few of us went to attend it http://hedyn.net/wici/Hacio'r_Iaith_-_Ionawr_2011#Pryd.3F [20:37] Oh yeah, exams that day :( [20:38] p_masho: BT is a fun company at times, if you forget to pay the bill and they disconnect you, you can still use port 22 for SSH and a SOCKS proxy [20:38] Ah, 29/1/11 even, not 28 [20:38] Srs? I thought that if you're disconnected, the entire service was cut off :/ [20:38] Hacio'r Cyri doens't count ;) [20:38] Yeah, exams that day too :( [20:39] * arthurL had a lot of them [20:39] and they unerringly sucked. [20:39] arthurL: They don't fully disconnect you they just put up a paywall preventing you from browsing the net [20:39] At least for a week or two [20:39] Ha, I'll remember this [20:39] ianto: sucks to neffodd... and If you get an engineer on site and there is a fault, he fixes it, if no fault its 170 for false callout (previous has no compensation clause).. [20:41] arthurL: Just sat the Welsh exam for Aber today, went fairly well but the first question was solid, other than that I reckon I got between 70 to 80% [20:41] Cwl :) [20:42] Any idea what your marks were for your merit? [20:42] ianto: They don't tell you :( [20:42] They tell the college though [20:42] Then again I don't want to be told [20:42] WHAT. [20:42] Like UCAS don't tell you your estimated grades but the Aber lecturers told me my grades [20:43] arthurL: They send your results to the head of school in the college when they send you a letter to confirm/deny your merit/scholarship [20:43] I got the letter to confirm but I was never told about results [20:43] Ever. [20:44] Oh well, it's too far in the past to care [20:44] I might nag the college to find out :) [20:44] When they get them [20:44] PRobably won't bother telling me but it's worth a try [20:44] I just assumed that they would actually send me the results but that never happened [20:44] I suppose I didn't care much when I got the merit award [20:45] Also, monitor setup as of today: http://lomax.ath.cx/temp/awwwwyeah.jpg [20:46] Left = 20", right = 24" [20:46] Odd way of setting up the left monitor [20:46] Very cool though [20:46] * p_masho wicked ianto.. that page translated yn daa into cymraeg.. [20:46] It's for reading code and stuffs [20:47] Awesome thing is that I can rotate it freely [20:47] The only bad thing is that the big one has a stuck pixel right in the middle [20:47] If it was in the corner I wouldn't care that much [20:49] ianto: your coming to aber? [20:49] Guest30821: It's likely, I only need 220 for straight Welsh or 260 for Welsh & InterPol [20:50] cool :) [20:50] Considering I need a B in Welsh to be accepted and I'm doing Welsh Bacc which is worth an A at A level, 220 is in the bag already, with Computing at grade B/C-ish, 260 is well easy [20:52] meepmeep [20:53] Roadrunner? [20:53] no, just me [20:53] happy birthday for the other day [20:54] a year flies [20:54] * brobostigon plays the happy birthday song.
