[09:16] Kaia: Nope, it's a brand new one -_- [09:30] JScreenFix overnight was a no-go [13:43] afternoonings everyone. [14:57] afternoonnings ianto and Luinar [14:57] :) [14:57] Hi you two [14:57] Hey. :-) [14:58] Thought I'd drop by and check out the Welsh chan. [14:58] brobostigon: Did you see the comment in the politics chan? [14:58] Luinar: Ah cool, you from Wales too? [14:58] ianto: i am just reading it, [14:58] Yeah... well, not originally. Moved here 5 years ago when I went to uni and just never left! [14:59] Ah brilliant, what uni was it? [14:59] Aberystwyth [15:00] Heh, we have a lot of people in here at Aberystwyth or have/are studied/studying there [15:00] Oh, cool. :) [15:00] I'm actually back doing a Masters now. [15:00] Oh cool, in CompSci? [15:01] Nope, in History of all things. I just like tinkering around with computers in my spare time. [15:01] I've just finished a Welsh exam paper for the Aberystwyth scholarships and I'm doing the CompSci one tomorrow [15:02] Hopefully I'll get a merit or scholarship then I'll eventually be one of the Ubuntu Aberystwyth alumni ;) [15:02] Ah... pob lwc! [15:02] I got in on a merit scholarship for my undergrad. [15:02] They're well worth taking the exams for! [15:04] Yeah, all of my mates who've done it in the past have gotten the merit award so hopefully I will too. I feel rather confident about the Welsh exam that I've done, thinking that I had about 75% [15:04] Not sure what the grade target is for merits [15:05] Hmm, I'm not sure how they grade the scholarship exams either. They never told me what score I got, only that I received a merit. [15:36] Hello :D [15:36] * Kaia pats arthurL [15:36] afternoonings Kaia :) [15:36] Luinar: hello :D I'm an Aber student also :) [15:37] Hey. :) [15:37] I know a history masters student :O you might know him [15:37] What do you study? [15:37] Oh? What's their name? [15:37] Computer Science [15:37] Luinar: Kris Lovell, do you know him? [15:38] Hmm, doesn't ring a bell I'm afraid... I am terrible with names though! [15:39] haha [15:39] i'll PM you a picture [15:40] nice middle name Luinar [15:40] :D thanks [15:41] were your parents pink floyd fans by any chance? [15:41] do you recognise him? [15:41] I do now, yes! We haven't spoken much through. Is he doing PhD? [15:42] My mum had been listening to a lot of Pink Floyd when I was born. She though I'd grow up to hate it, but I think it's awesome. [15:42] *thought [15:42] I'm not sure, he's my signpost mentor [15:42] awwww [15:43] I found you on facebook, we have 1 mutual friend, Sue McAusland [15:43] shwmae Mr__T [15:43] hola [15:43] Heh, small world eh, Kaia? [15:44] yep, Mr__T is an aber grad [15:44] ^__^ [15:45] ^show off :P [15:47] weird [15:49] whut? [15:49] who is weird? [15:55] ^__^ [15:55] -uc_tumbleweed- Error: "__^" is not a valid command. [15:55] I guess there's a bot activated by commands starting with ^ [15:56] !8ball is ianto a god? [15:56] brobostigon: It is possible. [15:56] :) [16:02] !8ball is Luinar scared of us? [16:02] Kaia: No clue. [16:02] lol [16:02] 16:02 Your edit request has been forwarded to #ubuntu-irc. Thank you for your attention to detail [16:02] lol [16:03] !8ball is Kaia our welsh queen? [16:03] brobostigon: Of course. [16:04] shwmae Tm_T [16:04] shwmae [16:12] shwmae! [16:37] shw'mae buttes [16:37] Smae [16:38] ianto: IP address of ubuntu-cym.org is changing [16:38] Narcissus: Ah cool ok thanks for letting us know [16:38] Narcissus: Any idea what to yet? [16:38] 178.79.152.244 [16:39] it'll switch over on the 18th Feb [16:40] Going to that IP in my browser loads up the homepage anyway.. [16:40] because that's the first entry in httpd.conf [16:40] I've already migrated your site to the new server [16:41] you just need to change the A record of ubuntu-cym.org to 178.79.152.244 before the 17th [16:41] and then receive a PM from me with your new password for the new server [16:41] Gonna have to go through the whole Ubuntu-eu process again... 8-) [19:11] Ola [19:11] anyone about? [19:11] Na [19:12] Bad answer [19:12] dariusH: Fancy doing me a favour? ;) [19:13] depends what it is :P [19:14] dariusH: Write in pseudocode an algorithm that finds all the prime numbers from 1 - 1000 ;) [19:14] why? [19:15] dariusH: Aber exam tomorrow, I dunno the maths behind it [19:15] well a prime is a number that can only be divided by 1 and itself [19:15] so you'd create a for loop to go through each number [19:15] then in that loop try dividing that number by different numbers if it passes that it's a prime [19:17] to pastebin [19:18] Mae Llewellyn y llyfrgellydd o Lanelli wedi llyfu llawer o lyfaint [19:18] llewellyn the librarian from llanelli licked a lot of toads [19:20] how do you do a for loop in pseudocode :S [19:21] i dunno, whenever I try to pseudocode it comes out looking like a C program without the preprocessor #include [19:26] http://pastebin.com/LNESrgcq [19:26] something along those lines [19:26] bizarre pseudocode yes, but oh well [19:27] that's the general just of it [19:27] gist* [19:28] could even switch //is prime to add the number to a stack for extra points [19:29] but that's overkill for this exam really [19:29] http://pastebin.com/CxQdy9SE = what I have [19:30] Oops, line 13 should be if currentCount divided by currentPrimes has no remainder [19:31] i don't remember this question being in my exam [19:31] what papers this off? [19:32] oh it was [19:32] lol [19:33] ianto: what VPS are you using? and how much is it? [19:33] dariusH: fsckvps.com at $8.50/mo [19:33] (15% discount) [19:34] how the discount? [19:34] Because I asked for it [19:36] all i want it a git server for backup at the moment [19:36] i literally have no available money to spend :( [19:36] Well can't you use some git hosting company? [19:36] Some offer private ones [19:36] because i'd rather have a VPS [19:37] Check out here http://www.fsckvps.com/hosting/ [19:37] I can get you 15% discount if you want it [19:37] Be warned they take their tiem with cancellation [19:38] So if you need to cancel do it about 5 days before your billing ends [19:38] *billing period [19:39] suppose that is only £5 a month [19:44] They may take like 24 hours to setup as well though depending on if anyone's working or not [19:44] says on the homepage 2 hours [19:44] might do that [19:44] atleast for a month to test [19:46] i'd prefer a UK based one (say in sovereign house) but they're hugely expensive compared to america [19:47] dariusH: Here's some C for the prime thing: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=Y2m4K5qg [19:47] In case you haven't cracked it yet [19:48] Good grief, just realised how horrid the comments are... [19:48] I did write this about 3 years ago... [19:51] reckon IS would let me host a server? :P [19:52] I don't see why not [19:52] although that negates hte point of having it [19:52] so long as it isn't a torrent slave or somesuch [19:52] i wanted to back up outside the aber network [19:52] well mainly off central (far too unpredictable) [19:55] Even when central is out of commission the webernets still work fine [19:56] other problems being only 1 ethernet port and no wifi in pjm, i'd have to passthrough, and i'd have to relocate in summer, and i'm not paying the electricity bill for that :P [19:56] Spare wireless router? [19:57] nope, not one that works and doesn't make a horrible high pitched noise anyway [19:57] heh [19:57] plus even that's at home at hte moment, my parents can't hear the noise and claim it's not there :( [20:00] Wait, that C code was for Chris [20:00] HURRRR [20:00] Anywho, I'd run the server at home like I'm doing [20:02] Also, I've learnt today that this stuck pixel isn't a stuck pixel. It's two dead sub-pixels :c [20:02] o/ ianto [20:02] \o arthurL [20:03] And because only one pixel is affected, they will refuse to replace it :( [20:03] Oh, cruel fate! [20:10] damage another [20:10] and don't go to dell india :P [20:13] neath's internet connection is horrible [20:13] and virgin doesn't provide static IP's i don't think [20:41] Mine never changes for some reason [20:42] Mine does with BT [20:42] Ewwww BeeeTeeee! [22:34] nos da, sleep well everyone,
