[08:13] <AlanBell> morning all
[08:16] <TheOpenSourcerer> Morning :-)
[08:18]  * Myrtti prods popey 
[08:26] <DJones> Morning all
[08:45] <hoover> morning all
[08:46] <MooDoo> hello all
[09:13] <danfish> morning! Last Monday at work for over a month :D
[09:16] <mattt> danfish: lucky bugger!
[09:18]  * danfish has an intense loathing of Mondays
[09:18] <AlanBell> haters gonna hate
[09:19] <MooDoo> danfish: +1 then again i was working the weekend so not had a nice day in 3
[09:19] <mattt> http://thechive.files.wordpress.com/2010/05/haters-gonna-hate-7.jpg?w=500&h=375
[09:44] <popey> Morning all
[09:44] <bigcalm> Hola popey
[09:45] <jpds> popey: Morning
[09:45]  * popey waves to jpds 
[09:46] <jpds> This reminds me of a UDS.
[09:46] <christel> Good morning beauties
[09:46] <popey> :D
[10:08] <Guest47021> anyone here working towards a technical degree?
[10:08] <Guest47021> or has one ?
[10:16] <czajkowski> aloha
[10:17] <brobostigon> morning czajkowski
[10:18] <oimon> ghostwiz_: what do u mean by techniacl degree?
[10:25] <ghostwiz_> like EE, CS
[10:25] <oimon> i have maths+CS
[10:25] <ghostwiz_> something to do with technology or engineering
[10:25] <ghostwiz_> Well to employer decided to employen
[10:25] <ghostwiz_> oops
[10:26] <ghostwiz_> Do employers decided if to employ you based on your grade
[10:26] <ghostwiz_> for example, someone who has a 61% 2.1 vs someone with a 75% 2.1
[10:26] <czajkowski> ghostwiz_: some do, or at least ask for your award.
[10:26] <ghostwiz_> they're both 2.1
[10:26] <czajkowski> Intel IBM Google all ask
[10:26] <oimon> experiences may differ wildly, but i've been involved in recruitment process for quite a few years and usually filter the 2:1 and above *from good unis* first
[10:27] <czajkowski> no they usually ask what award type
[10:27] <oimon> a 2:2 from a good uni may be better than a 2:1 or 1st from a crummy one
[10:27] <ghostwiz_> Right I see
[10:27] <oimon> no one cares about %age , just what the degree certificate says
[10:27] <oimon> 75% is a 1st
[10:27] <aquarius> ghostwiz_, and nobody knows what actual score you got; you get a 2.1 or a first or whatever. I don't even know myself what scores I got.
[10:28] <ghostwiz_> oh right I see
[10:28] <ghostwiz_> 75% isn't a forst at my uni
[10:28] <ghostwiz_> haha
[10:28] <oimon> whut?
[10:28] <oimon> which uni?
[10:28] <ghostwiz_> UWE
[10:28] <oimon> i was top of my year with 75%
[10:29] <czajkowski> it's not mine either as we go by QCA/GPA so to get a 1:1 you need A!'s from 2nd year onwards till the final exam
[10:31] <oimon> 40% of my 2nd year went to the degree grade, which sucks a bit when you get to the summer of the final year and getting burned out :(
[10:31] <ghostwiz_> y first year doesn't count :(
[10:31] <oimon> then i got a job and never took a break..year out would've been nice :)
[10:32] <oimon> first year is for work, party and sleep. 2nd year you can only choose 2.
[10:32] <JamesTait> Buenos días a todos!
[10:33] <ghostwiz_> I hope I can get a job in the future
[10:34] <ghostwiz_> the economy doesn't look good
[10:34] <ghostwiz_> I am willing to travel anywhere
[10:50] <popey> morning slackers
[10:50] <hoover> morning
[10:50] <popey> :D
[10:51] <bigcalm> I look forward to wearing slacks
[10:53] <gordonjcp> because frankly seeing you in tights would just be disturbing
[11:02] <davmor2> morning all
[11:03] <davmor2> czajkowski: prod, prod, prod, prod, prod, hello
[11:03] <bigcalm> Hi davmor2
[11:03] <davmor2> morning bigcalm was that your better half with you at sans le noir?
[11:04] <bigcalm> dans
[11:04] <bigcalm> No, Hayley had to stay at home
[11:04] <bigcalm> The 2 ladies in the party were @therealpopey and @christel
[11:05] <davmor2> bigcalm: ah twas christel then
[11:05] <bigcalm> Aye
[11:08] <DJones> bigcalm: Were there any photo's from inside the restaurant, I wasn't expecting any because of the darkness and assuming that flash photography would be banned
[11:09] <bigcalm> No, no sources of light are allowed
[11:09] <DJones> I thought that would be the situation
[11:10] <davmor2> DJones: no you might notice that you have fish and chips from the chippy next door else
[11:11] <bigcalm> The glowing starter was a hoot
[11:13] <DJones> davmor2: I've only ever had one meal in "darkness", that was on my honeymoon, romantic meal for two (there's a surprise) on a beach in mexico at about 9pm, sun had gone down, quite dark, only candles for lighting, I nearly threw up when the onion rings I was eating turned out be calamari
[11:13] <oimon> does it glow when it leaves the other end too?
[11:13] <DJones> TMI
[11:13] <bigcalm> popey: are you changing g+ profiles?
[11:15] <davmor2> bigcalm: that was radioactive sushi from the recent nuclear power plant fallout right?
[11:16]  * DJones wonders what naturally occuring food colouring glows in the dark
[11:16] <bigcalm> Bioluminescent scallops iirc. AlanBell will remember more
[11:17] <bigcalm> DJones: a lot of sea things have natural bioluminescence
[11:17] <popey> bigcalm: I will when a migration tool appears
[11:17] <davmor2> DJones: there is also bioluminescent oil from certain fish that you can cook food in and it keeps the glow
[11:18] <bigcalm> popey: Sounds sensible. g+ was confusing me by suggesting I add people I already have added
[11:18] <DJones> bigcalm: davmor2: The only fish I eat is battered cod, I've never been a fan of seafood
[11:18] <bigcalm> :D
[11:19] <bigcalm> Well, in the dark you don't know what's on your plate
[11:19] <oimon> DJones: +1
[11:19] <davmor2> DJones: ditto that and fish finger
[11:19] <bigcalm> Some people had shark. Wish I'd had it now
[11:19] <oimon> "fish" finger
[11:19] <oimon> hmm
[11:19] <DJones> davmor2: As long as they're cod fish fingers
[11:20] <davmor2> DJones: we are talking food not scut
[11:20] <DJones> Heh
[11:22] <bigcalm> I'm happy to have fish fingers as I have solders with my boiled eggs. It's just a name :)
[11:23] <oimon> it's strange that people eat sea creatures willingly that bear a similarity to bush-tucker if they lived on land
[11:24] <bigcalm> Keep an open mind to all yummy things :)
[11:25] <DJones> I'd agree with that, since I got married, I now eat brocolli and enjoy it :)
[11:25] <bigcalm> Hahaha
[11:25] <oimon> radical
[11:26] <popey> mmmmm fish
[11:26] <oimon> vegeatables aren't really yummy, though are they?
[11:26] <popey> some are
[11:26] <popey> sweet potatoes
[11:26] <popey> parsnips
[11:26] <DJones> oimon: They are with beef gravy on
[11:26] <oimon> and beef on the fork
[11:27] <bigcalm> Cabbage
[11:27] <popey> sprouts!
[11:27] <popey> mmmmm sprouts with bacon
[11:27] <DJones> Yummy spouts
[11:27] <bigcalm> All veg are yummy if prepared correctly.
[11:27] <popey> except celery
[11:27] <oimon> and served with meat
[11:27] <popey> celery is the work of the devil
[11:27] <oimon> celery is nice with turkey and dips
[11:27] <DJones> Celery with a bit of salt is lovely#
[11:27] <popey> i could eat roast parsnips on their own
[11:27] <bigcalm> popey: sprouts are yummy if moved directly from the plate to the bin without passing the mouth
[11:27] <popey> bleh
[11:28] <popey> haha
[11:28] <popey> consensus! We've heard of it!
[11:28] <bigcalm> :)
[11:28] <gord> i could eat a giant bowl of sprouts forever, they are wonderful
[11:28] <bigcalm> I loves me some roast parsnips
[11:28] <oimon> ewww farty pants
[11:31] <DJones> One thing I love now is macaroni cheese, my wife does a home made one which tases amazing, all I'd had before was tinned and always smelt as though somebody had already eaten it
[11:32] <chrisjrob> macaroni cheese cannot be bought or re-heated, it can only be made fresh at home
[11:32] <chrisjrob> IMHO
[11:32] <chrisjrob> and I consider myself a connoisseur ;)
[11:33] <AlanBell> bigcalm: sprouts actually become edible if fried up in bacon
[11:33] <AlanBell> then throw away the sprouts and eat the bacon
[11:33] <bigcalm> AlanBell: ooo, wonder if I can recommend this for the 25th
[11:33] <bigcalm> \o/
[11:33] <danfish> AlanBell beat me to it!
[11:33] <DJones> Just mix some spouts and snails together
[11:34] <bigcalm> Snails are ok, if a little chewy
[11:34] <DJones> Snails as a food item are just _wrong_
[11:34]  * chrisjrob agrees with DJones 
[11:35] <directhex> nothing is forbidden. everything is permitted
[11:35]  * chrisjrob bans things that create slime as foodstuffs
[11:37] <popey> directhex: +1
[11:37] <popey> Eat everything _once_.
[11:37] <bigcalm> _everything_?
[11:38] <DJones> And don't eat it a 2nd time once its been regurgitated :)
[11:38] <directhex> eat everything *twice*. it's too new to form a useful opinion the first time
[11:38] <popey> My daughter will try just about anything
[11:38] <popey> my Son wont
[11:38] <popey> he will probably change tho
[11:41] <bigcalm> Hayley doesn't like olives and yet she will try one every few years to see if her taste has changed. It never does yet she keeps checking
[11:42] <gordonjcp> bigcalm: heh
[11:42] <oimon> i didn't like olives till i used extra virgin olive oil
[11:43] <bigcalm> She'll happily let me cook with olive oil though
[11:51]  * mattt is hitting the monday morning brick wall
[11:52] <davmor2> popey: did you ever decide on a player for Sophie (/me hopes he got the name right)
[11:52] <popey> yes
[11:52] <popey> ipod shuffle
[11:52] <davmor2> popey: fair enough :)
[11:54] <oimon> do shuffles have screens nowadays?
[11:54] <oimon> or they are designed for joggers
[11:56] <bigcalm> I take my joggler out jogging
[11:56] <smittix> Morning all
[11:56] <bigcalm> Hullo :)
[11:57] <smittix> How goes it?
[11:57] <bigcalm> Swimmingly
[11:57] <smittix> kool and the gang
[11:58] <Myrtti> hm
[11:58] <Myrtti> who's next on the list...
[12:00] <davmor2> Myrtti: Ah just put me in the naughty column and continue :)
[12:03] <andylockran> how's things?
[12:08] <brobostigon> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17521020/9-DWP-Social-Security-Benefits-Uprating.pdf  might interest a few people, the proposed benefit rate changes, that were just published.
[12:14] <awilkins> Just had a thought - would Unity benefit from a "summon window" method ; instead of switching to the workspace with a particular window, summon that window to the workspace you are looking at
[12:15] <Darael> That actually sounds like a kind of nifty feature for /any/ desktop with workspaces.
[12:17] <Darael> Personally, I think Compiz could use "move with window to specific workspace" bindings.  It can do "move to specific workspace", and it can do "move one workspace up/down/left/right/next/prev with window", but it can't combine the two.
[12:17] <Darael> I'd like that because I tend to work on a 9x9 grid, with the workspaces mapped to ctl+alt+numpad.
[12:20] <oimon> adblock plus: “Allow non-intrusive advertising” option is enabled by default for all users but the ones using privacy filter lists
[12:20] <oimon> As of Adblock Plus 2.0b.3277
[12:21] <gordonjcp> Darael: 9x9?
[12:21] <gordonjcp> o_O
[12:21] <Darael> gordonjcp: Um, I feel silly.  3x3
[12:21] <Darael> I feel even sillier that I didn't catch it.
[12:21] <gordonjcp> Darael: I thought that seemed a bit hardcore
[12:22] <Darael> Hey, seen what e16 was capable of?  Something ridiculous like 2048 sets of 16x16 each, wasn't it?
[12:22] <smittix> Does anyone else have ultra slow usb transfer speeds in Ubuntu 11.10?
[12:23] <gordonjcp> only when I'm using a USB1 hub
[12:23] <oimon> which shops sell miniatures (alcoholic)?
[12:24] <gordonjcp> oimon: some "high end" off-licences, whisky shops
[12:24] <oimon> would supermarkets sell them individually?
[12:24] <gordonjcp> they might do
[12:25] <gordonjcp> John Lewis do
[12:26] <oimon> ok ta
[12:26] <oimon> maybe waitrose might then
[12:26] <gordonjcp> yeah that's not a bad idea
[13:03] <BigRedS_1> asda do, I think
[13:03] <BigRedS_1> which I always found odd
[13:03] <Myrtti> tesco had some wines in relatively small bottles
[13:38] <Daviey> Anyone here using nvidia binary drivers with oneiric?
[13:40] <popey> yes
[13:40] <popey> ^ Daviey
[13:40] <popey> on my mbp
[13:40] <popey> (which I hate)
[13:40] <Daviey> popey: good stuff... Is nvidia biary still working with the latest kernel?
[13:40] <Daviey> binary*
[13:40] <popey> Linux mbp 3.0.0-14-generic #23-Ubuntu SMP Mon Nov 21 20:28:43 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[13:41] <popey> is that latest?
[13:41] <Daviey> yah
[13:41] <Daviey> or the same version i have broken nvidia binary.
[13:42] <popey> I switched from EFI to BIOS mode, so I get nVidia binary 'goodness'
[13:43] <Daviey> frack.
[13:43] <Daviey> So it's just me.
[13:46] <davmor2> Daviey: Nvidia hates you hate it back work for me, oh that and I moved to ATI ;)
[13:47] <Daviey> hah
[13:48] <christel> DJones: it was quite painful for us, having to place laptops and mobiles in the lockers before going inside!
[13:49] <mattt> christel: so no photos then?
[13:49]  * mattt jokes
[13:49] <christel> quite :P
[13:49] <christel> well, they had infrared cameras
[13:50] <christel> so they could spy on bigcalm attempting to feel up AlanBell
[13:50] <christel> :o
[13:50] <christel> (pervs, the lot of them)
[13:50] <MooDoo> christel: i've just spat out my food thank you very much :p
[13:50] <christel> "they" being the restaurant
[13:50] <christel> MooDoo: haha i am sorry!
[13:50] <MooDoo> :D
[13:51] <bigcalm> christel: damn right. Maybe I should apply to be freenode staff
[13:51] <MooDoo> bigcalm: nah thay suck.....pardon the pub
[13:51] <MooDoo> pun
[13:51] <MooDoo> oh christel didn't see you there ;)
[13:51]  * MooDoo waits for the kick/ban :D
[13:52] <christel> harr harr
[13:53] <bigcalm> I can vouch for christel and say that she is an angel and a delight to spend time with
[13:53] <davmor2> christel: why would blind people want to stare at a screen they can't see when they can just stand next to the table and listen in?
[13:53] <christel> haha
[13:53] <MooDoo> bigcalm: are you drunk?
[13:54] <christel> well, the chef and the bar staff and the maitre'd's can see
[13:54] <christel> also, our waiter ran away
[13:54] <AlanBell> oh my, what is going on now!
[13:54] <bigcalm> MooDoo: not right now, not. I did have a skin full after the meal though :D
[13:54] <christel> so me, doctormo and bigcalm were sat there shouting for him for like 10 mins
[13:54] <christel> attempting to order more drinks
[13:54] <Laney> GAU!!!!!!!!!!
[13:55] <davmor2> christel: now I understand why he ran away :P
[13:55] <christel> haha
[13:55] <bigcalm> I was exceedingly pleased that the pub we went to afterwards served ale in proper mugs
[13:55] <christel> haha
[13:56] <davmor2> bigcalm: Calling yourself a proper mug is a bit harsh
[13:56] <bigcalm> Haha
[13:56] <christel> badumtisch
[13:56] <christel> davmor2 is my favourite.
[13:56] <bigcalm> "in" not "to" :P
[13:56] <MooDoo> christel: davmor2 ?  are you nuts?
[13:56] <christel> MooDoo: quite possibly!
[13:56] <MooDoo> :d
[13:56] <davmor2> christel: I think you meant to say instantrimshot.com
[13:56] <christel> quite!
[13:57] <christel> AlanBell: when can we come say hello to your chicks?
[13:57] <MooDoo> cough splutter
[13:58] <davmor2> MooDoo: you should know everyone thinks I'm "special" just ask czajkowski
[13:58] <MooDoo> davmor2: czajkowski doesn't count as she's also special :D
[13:59]  * davmor2 can't wait for czajkowski to check the channel and read that :D
[14:01] <DJones> christel: At least they let you put everything in a locker and wasn't like a coat room, ticket number 45 goes missing
[14:02] <christel> true!
[14:02] <christel> i had to entrust bigcalm with my locker key mind as i had no pockets
[14:03] <MooDoo> davmor2: special, spelt "g o r g e o u s"  :)
[14:03]  * AlanBell checks the chick calendar
[14:03] <bigcalm> Hehe
[14:03] <davmor2> christel: Could of been worse it might of been an Alan
[14:03] <bigcalm> christel: the alternative was amusing
[14:05] <AlanBell> thursday or friday look good
[14:05] <christel> darn! the boy child does childminder on a thursday and friday, however, i may grab him early on friday as we have a christmas do thing
[14:05] <davmor2> christel: You have shattered all my illusions I thought bras had pockets
[14:06] <christel> davmor2: they were both full(!)
[14:06] <MooDoo> davmor2: my wife says they do, especially when she goes out, stores lollipops
[14:06] <davmor2> MooDoo: I was thinking more of the notes that disappear when women have no pocket visible
[14:07] <MooDoo> davmor2: no idea about that one :d
[15:01] <bigcalm> !info backup
[15:02] <bigcalm> !backup
[15:14] <HoaxKey> Hey all I am trying to add a tool tip to the column header of a column in a grid and cannot see how to do it, any suggestions?
[15:15] <Darael> We'll need a bit more context than that, HoaxKey - we have no idea what this grid is!
[15:15] <mattt> hahaha
[15:15] <mattt> i was just thinking the same
[15:15] <dogmatic69> wrong chan i would guess
[15:15] <HoaxKey> loooooooooool
[15:15] <HoaxKey> failed to join extjs
[15:15] <HoaxKey> cheers guys :D
[15:15] <mattt> :)
[15:16] <gordonjcp> HoaxKey: that would do it
[15:16] <Darael> .u'i .ua *ahem* I mean, "heh, that explains that"
[15:35]  * davmor2 tickles MooDoo and czajkowski and runs away
[15:37] <christel> czajkowski will get you.. you may run but you can't hide from her
[15:37] <MooDoo> davmor2: i'm bigger than you, pack it in
[15:37] <davmor2> MooDoo: Nope :P
[15:37] <MooDoo> davmor2: oi christel get im ;)
[15:38] <oimon> i wonder how out-of-date my harvest chewee bars need to be before i stop eating them
[15:38] <oimon> over 3 months out of date already
[15:38] <davmor2> christel: I'll stop when czajkowski is 100% then she might stand a chance of catching me :)
[15:51] <christel> hehe
[15:51] <christel> you won't have long to go!
[15:52] <MooDoo> davmor2: perhaps you can chase christel in the meantime?
[15:53] <christel> i think he was running away, not chasing :o
[15:53] <davmor2> christel: I'm pretty sure I safe as long as I can run faster :)
[15:53] <jutnux> Afternoon guys.
[15:54] <christel> ah! but she may secretly be an antelope!
[15:54] <davmor2> MooDoo: why would I chase christel tickle maybe but not chase that's just wrong
[15:54] <MooDoo> davmor2: chase, rugby tackle to the floor, then tickle?
[15:55] <davmor2> MooDoo: No that's just wrong, it'll end in tears and possibly yours for suggesting it
[15:57] <MooDoo> i can take the pain....just ask them in #likesalotofpainonfridays
[15:59] <davmor2> MooDoo: so why do you keep complaining when you get the short end of the stick on Fridays E:TOOMUCHPAIN!
[16:00] <MooDoo> lol
[16:04] <christel> tickles :(
[16:05] <davmor2> christel: No don't tickle sad face he may become :) and then how do we do :('s then?
[16:08] <awilkins> I opened a flapjack that had been in my car for 5 years recently. I didn't eat it. Smelled wrong.
[16:08] <awilkins> My wife will throw food out the picosecond it goes "out of date"
[16:09] <dogmatic69> awilkins: that is too late...
[16:10] <christel> i do that :s
[16:10] <bigcalm> Tut
[16:10] <christel> it drives gareth mad
[16:10] <awilkins> We have this fantastic diagnostic chemical lab attached to our face, specifically tuned for detecting spoilt food, and no-one uses it
[16:10] <MooDoo> he'll cope
[16:10] <bigcalm> christel: good enough reason then ;)
[16:10] <christel> haha
[16:11] <bigcalm> awilkins: I always sniff the milk (mostly out of habit). Even on the day of purchase
[16:11] <awilkins> She threw out a bottle of worcestershire sauce once... I had specifically bought the largest bottle I could find, because it gets better with age
[16:11] <awilkins> All that maturing time wasted :-(
[16:12] <bigcalm> Oh my :(
[16:12] <bigcalm> That's just wrong!
[16:12] <awilkins> I'd had that sauce since uni
[16:12] <bigcalm> WS should have no date on it. Same way that wine doesn't
[16:13] <dogmatic69> bigcalm: my gf looks at me strange when i open a new milk and give it a sniff
[16:14] <bigcalm> :)
[16:14] <DJones> Somebody from work bought some whisky the other week from waitrose, it'd been reduced to half price because it was near to its use by/sell by date..... Doesn't whisky mature the older it is
[16:14] <dogmatic69> nothing beats sour milk first thing in the morning
[16:14] <awilkins> Yes
[16:14] <bigcalm> In a cask, yes
[16:14] <dogmatic69> DJones: not when its bottled
[16:14] <Darael> DJones: Alcohol only really matures in a cask.  Once it's bottled, age makes little difference.
[16:14] <davmor2> dogmatic69: you need help
[16:14] <awilkins> The bottle life is basically infinite anyway
[16:14] <awilkins> Well, long
[16:15] <awilkins> We have whisky we bought on our honeymoon
[16:15] <jutnux> My mum throws away mouldy bread
[16:15] <jutnux> Even if there is just a little bit
[16:15] <bigcalm> So will I
[16:15] <dogmatic69> only thing that will happen to spirits is the good parts (alcohol) evaporates
[16:15] <bigcalm> If there's one spot of blue mould on a loaf, the whole thing goes
[16:15] <awilkins> I always buy the wine that's on the yellow label on the grounds that it's ready to drink now..
[16:15] <dogmatic69> jutnux: one tiny green spot and its in the bin
[16:15] <DJones> Thats hwat I'd have expected though with whisky, it doesn't exactly go off if its 6 months older than its date
[16:15] <awilkins> I pick out a fair margin AROUND the green spot
[16:16] <awilkins> The green patch is just the fruiting body, there are plenty of hyphae under the surface
[16:16] <bigcalm> There will be mould spoors in the rest of the bag. It has to go
[16:16] <bigcalm> Cheese is meant to be mouldy though :)
[16:16] <Darael> ITYM spores, bigcalm.  Spoors are something altogether different.
[16:16] <dogmatic69> i dont understand people that pay for and eat cheese that has gone off (blue cheese)...
[16:17] <bigcalm> Darael: it's possible but I don't care enough ;)
[16:17] <awilkins> Spoor is poop (specifically poop you are using to track an animal)
[16:17] <awilkins> Blue cheese is an acquired taste. I only acquire it after a few beers, a slap up dinner, and a large brandy.
[16:18] <awilkins> On the occasion, was in a casino - casino restaurants are ace - really cheap because they want to reap your cash on the tables.
[16:18] <christel> casinos are bad
[16:18] <christel> i lose so much money whenever i go
[16:18] <awilkins> Excellent salad, rump of lamp, dessert and a huge cheeseboard, £13 a head
[16:19] <awilkins> I think I gambled the complimentary £5 chip they gave us with the package
[16:19] <jutnux> I never used to like Soya milk, but I drank so much of it in the end I don't really notice.
[16:19] <awilkins> lamb, not lamp
[16:19] <jutnux> Stupid lactose intolerance, glad I can drink normal cows milk now though.
[16:21] <Myrtti> popey: ♥
[16:24] <popey> hmm?
[16:25]  * awilkins wonders if lactose intolerance is linked to geekiness ; had never considered it before watching Big Bang Theory
[16:26] <jutnux> awilkins: Mine seemed to go away.
[16:29] <awilkins> jutnux, People with secondary lactose intolerance can retrain their intestines to make lactase again
[16:30] <awilkins> (some)
[16:30] <jutnux> Oh. Sweet! It has left me with some other things though.
[16:32] <s-fox> Hello.
[16:33] <MooDoo> hello s-fox how the devil are you?
[16:33] <s-fox> Breathing. You?
[16:33] <MooDoo> s-fox: barely that
[16:33] <MooDoo> lo
[16:34] <MooDoo> s-fox: so what's up with ya?
[16:35] <s-fox> MooDoo,  It is december. lol
[16:35] <MooDoo> s-fox: not your cup of tea?
[16:35] <s-fox> Everyone has to pretend to be happy. Its depressing. ;)
[16:35] <MooDoo> s-fox: so don't pretend ;)
[16:36] <MooDoo> s-fox: :p
[16:37] <gordonjcp> bugrit
[16:38] <s-fox> +1 gord
[16:38] <s-fox> +1 gordonjcp
[16:38] <gordonjcp> so I'm going down to London on Wednesday, but apparently $work has already organised a hotel
[16:38] <gordonjcp> *and* the boss's son is coming with me, ostensibly to help with the driving
[16:38] <jutnux> So much revision needing to be done :-(
[16:39] <czajkowski> gordonjcp: is this good or bad
[16:39] <gordonjcp> czajkowski: well he drives like an idiot
[16:40] <gordonjcp> and he's the most boring mindless arse it's ever been my profound misfortune to be stuck with
[16:41] <czajkowski> lovely
[16:41] <mgdm> gordonjcp: you drive, you control stereo, you put on Future Sound of London?
[16:41] <jutnux> gordonjcp: Pull out the HDSPA and talk to us ;)
[16:41] <jutnux> the phone with HDSPA*
[16:41] <gordonjcp> jutnux: well yeah
[16:41] <jutnux> what is up with me :0*
[16:41] <jutnux> :-(
[16:41] <gordonjcp> mgdm: also part of the plan
[16:42] <gordonjcp> actually I'm going to download a couple of eps of Book of the Week from Radio 4
[16:42] <jutnux> Can't stand boring people
[16:42] <gordonjcp> oooh actually
[16:42] <gordonjcp> I *can* get out to Farnham
[16:42] <gordonjcp> 'cos I can get John to drive me
[16:44] <jutnux> Anyone doing anything unusual for christmas this year?
[16:45] <s-fox> Finding a bar and staying in it? :)
[16:46] <gordonjcp> finding a new girlfriend and staying in... no, that's against channel guidelines
[16:47] <jutnux> Haha.
[16:47] <jutnux> All bars near me are closed (not that I could buy anything from them, alcohol wise).
[16:52] <christel> haha
[16:53] <christel> gordonjcp: yes! make him drive you to farnham
[16:53] <christel> i'll make AlanBell do an extra happy hour, just for you!
[16:53] <bigcalm> o.O
[16:53] <christel> (it'll be extra happy, see?)
[16:53] <christel> o.O's bigcalm
[16:54] <Dave2> ö
[16:54] <bigcalm> Eep
[16:54] <christel> Dave2: yesyes.
[16:58] <AlanBell> Wednesday, hmm, working in Basingstoke, but should be back for pub o clock
[17:02] <christel> \o/
[17:05] <awilkins> Bars? At Christmas?
[17:05]  * awilkins shudders
[17:06] <awilkins> Although the last time I went on a pub crawl you could still smoke in a pub
[17:06] <jutnux> You can if you go in the smoking area ;)
[17:06]  * awilkins avoids
[17:06] <christel> ooh AlanBell, we should do a pubcrawl, i havent done a proper pubcrawl for aaages
[17:07] <jutnux> I fail to see the point in smoking. Could anyone here (if they smoke) tell me why they do? Just wondering :-)
[17:08] <jutnux> I live in an area where teenage pregnancy, unemployment, drugs and smoking is high for 13 year olds - so I see it a lot.
[17:08] <jutnux> Why is my grammar so bad tonight, I apologise!
[17:10] <Darael> I don't smoke, but the majority of those I was at VIth form with for the last two years do.  Most of them seem to do it as a social activity.
[17:10] <jutnux> Meh
[17:10] <jutnux> I don't care what other people do as long as it doesn't affect anyone else.
[17:11]  * AlanBell checks calendar for Thursday
[17:11] <AlanBell> pubcrawl looks feasible, I wonder if popey can come out to play
[17:11] <Darael> Which is to say, just about nothing so long as they have anybody who cares at all about them, since even doing nothing would affect /them/.
[17:11] <Darael> No, jutnux?
[17:11] <awilkins> I tried it once when I was about 21
[17:11] <awilkins> One puff, that is
[17:12] <awilkins> I didn't see anything special about it
[17:12] <popey> uhm
[17:12] <jutnux> Darael, you know what I meant - I hope.
[17:12] <awilkins> Although recently I've been wondering if getting a nicotine inhaler or electronic cigarette would assist concentration
[17:12] <AlanBell> popey: wondering about Farnham on Wednesday night is the plan so far
[17:13] <Darael> jutnux: I appreciate the sentiment, but I also know that one can find harm to someone if one follows /any/ action far enough.
[17:13] <AlanBell> wandering even
[17:13] <awilkins> My father was unable to give up permanently, even after they drained a pint of fluid out of his chest cavity
[17:13] <Darael> s/know/suspect/
[17:13] <awilkins> That turned out to be the pancreatitis from his chronic boozing though :-S
[17:13] <jutnux> Darael: Yes, I agree.
[17:14] <popey> AlanBell: this wednesday
[17:14] <jutnux> In 3 years I'll have to come to one ;)
[17:15] <popey> ?
[17:15] <AlanBell> popey: yeah, day after tomorrow
[17:17]  * jutnux has tea, be back soon.......
[17:17] <popey> maybe
[17:17] <popey> need to check with moonbase alpha
[17:18] <bigcalm> Oh, I see a new meeting date has been arranged. Will we remember? ;)
[17:23] <DJones> A thursday at 12:00, thats an unusual time
[17:23] <AlanBell> it is
[17:24] <AlanBell> the idea is to get different people along, there are some who can't sit on IRC in the evening
[17:24] <DJones> Is that using the idea that people are more likely to be around and not doing something productive
[17:25] <DJones> most of us will be in work/college, so not being productive :)
[17:25] <bigcalm> DJones: shhh, stop describing my daily irc activity
[17:26] <DJones> bigcalm: I was just talking about me
[17:26] <DJones> But using the "us" to not draw attention to myself
[17:26] <AlanBell> DJones: well I don't know if it is more people, but it might be different people, so if we keep shuffling it about a bit there will be more people involved in total
[17:27] <bigcalm> Good thinking
[17:27] <DJones> AlanBell: Its a good iea, I think its more likely to bring in more people, evenings do seem to have gotten quiet on IRC lately
[17:27] <DJones> s/iea/idea
[17:28] <Darael> Thursday at noon UTC... why, that puts it at 17:30 IST, conveniently in the evening for me to drop in!
[18:00] <czajkowski> aloha
[18:00] <jutnux> czajkowski: \o
[18:00] <davmor2> czajkowski: prod
[18:01]  * czajkowski glares at MooDoo and davmor2 special eh lads
[18:01]  * christel tickles laura
[18:01] <christel> hullu my pretty
[18:02] <davmor2> czajkowski: I didn't say you were special I argued that you'd beat him for that I said I was special :P
[18:02] <czajkowski> christel: darling how are you
[18:02] <gord> i'm special :(
[18:02] <davmor2> no gord the term was "Special"
[18:03] <christel> czajkowski: not at all bad! :)
[18:04] <davmor2> christel: but by the sounds of picking on bigcalm not all good either infact part evil Muhahahahahahaha!
[18:04] <christel> oh, he is for picking on i believe
[18:05] <ubuntuuk-planet> [Jono Bacon] Nicholas Skaggs Joining The Canonical Community Team - http://www.jonobacon.org/2011/12/12/nicholas-skaggs-joining-the-canonical-community-team/
[18:05]  * bigcalm eyes up christel
[18:06] <christel> :P
[18:06] <s-fox> Time to go. Goodbye.
[18:08] <jutnux> \o s-fox
[18:12] <jutnux> http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=LjxaK-dVugs
[18:16] <jutnux> http://youhavedownloaded.com
[18:17] <popey> heh, seen that in numerous IRC channels now
[18:17] <Azelphur> popey: the funny part is it says it has no records on me :D
[18:18] <Azelphur> popey: or any records for my static IP on the previous ISP I used xD
[18:21] <Darael> I think they have a list of torrents, and they grab the list of IPs in the swarm for those torrents from maybe four or five trackers.  The result is that they miss a lot.
[18:39] <jutnux> If you use the bay where the pirates lounge then you wont be on there. They gave up on trackers a longggggggg tiem ago.
[18:39] <jutnux> I think they use DHT now
[18:40] <Darael> DHT rather requires that one is using a tracker for at least one torrent, in order to discover another peer and thus get ahold of the hash table.  No?
[18:42] <jutnux> I have no idea.
[18:42] <davmor2> czajkowski: by the way Hello
[18:42]  * czajkowski kicks davmor2 on her way out 
[18:42] <czajkowski> toodles my dear : )
[18:44] <davmor2> czajkowski: you can't good you only just got here
[18:45] <jutnux> czajkowski: How do you actually pronounce your nick?
[18:45] <czajkowski> Chi Kov Ski
[18:46] <jutnux> Ah thanks
[18:46] <jutnux> Whenever I see it I keep running through my head how to pronounce it.
[18:46] <czajkowski> it's just like the russian Tchaikovsky
[18:46] <davmor2> jutnux: I'll tell you really czajkowski is pronounced OI!
[18:47] <jutnux> The composer?
[18:47] <davmor2> jutnux: that's the one
[18:47] <czajkowski> jutnux: aye
[18:57] <czajkowski> http://www.bfi.org.uk/whatson/bfi_southbank/events/previews_in_conversation/look_around_you_robert_popper_peter_serafinowicz  looking forward to this
[19:08] <Paul2> hello
[19:09] <Paul2> I know ubuntu have experience of running irc meetings. any comments/advice/whatever. wiki.ubuntu doesnt have much on the acutally running of them instead of the minutes
[19:12] <davmor2> Paul2: how do you mean?
[19:13] <Paul2> how do you stop a dozen people all chatting at once? I supose liberal use of mute etc
[19:17] <gordonjcp> Paul2: same way you do in a physical meeting
[19:18] <AlanBell> hi Paul2, we have a guide that might help
[19:18] <Paul2> I saw there was that bot. I guess that helps
[19:18] <AlanBell> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/Meeting/Guidelines
[19:18] <Paul2> Still doesn't stop distractions, tangents, bikeshedding etc
[19:18] <AlanBell> yeah, that is the chair's job
[19:19] <AlanBell> like in real life
[19:19] <Paul2> fair enough :)
[19:19] <AlanBell> the chair is responsible for timekeeping and keeping people focussed
[19:19] <Paul2> well it seemed to work well enough in real life. Now just got to apply it to IRC.
[19:20] <AlanBell> you need to have an agenda, and a chair
[19:20] <Paul2> Just concerned that people who actually turn up in real life have made a commitment in time and effort to be there and get something done. Whereas anyone can join IRC and put their 5000 word 2pence into the convo
[19:20] <Paul2> we'll see how it goes :)
[19:21] <AlanBell> you can mute people if they are disruptive, or let them rant away, the nice thing is that someone trying to dominate a conversation can't actually stop anyone else from saying stuff
[19:21] <AlanBell> whereas they can in real life
[19:23] <Paul2> in real life you sigh loudly and offer to get a round in, ignoring that person. :D
[19:23] <Paul2> but cheers :)
[19:24] <jutnux> Can anyone join the Ubuntu meetings?
[19:24] <Azelphur> yep
[19:27] <AlanBell> jutnux: most global teams meet in the #ubuntu-meeting channel, we have the #ubuntu-uk-meeting channel for our meetings
[19:28] <jutnux> Oh right, cool.
[19:28] <AlanBell> and yeah, everyone is welcome to both
[19:28] <jutnux> Will have to sit in on one everyday.
[19:29] <AlanBell> !fridge
[19:29] <AlanBell> http://fridge.ubuntu.com/calendars/ meeting calendars here
[19:29] <MartijnVdS> People who hang out on there are fridge magnets?
[19:30] <daubers> Evening
[19:30] <jutnux> daubers \o
[19:30] <MartijnVdS> \o
[19:31] <AlanBell> MartijnVdS: that seems only logical
[19:31]  * daubers waits for the toad in the hole to cook \o/
[19:31]  * MartijnVdS learned some Cisco stuff today
[19:31] <MartijnVdS> "Turn off port security"
[19:31] <daubers> MartijnVdS: Cisco stuff is a little odd
[19:32] <MartijnVdS> daubers: I see the point of "port security" (maximum number of MACs per switch port)
[19:32] <MartijnVdS> but not when I'm trying to install access points :)
[19:32] <MartijnVdS> "Why does only the first client get an IP?)
[19:32] <jacobw> Ergh
[19:34] <MartijnVdS> jacobw: my thoughts exactly :)
[19:35] <mgdm> MartijnVdS: heh heh, seen that
[19:36] <MartijnVdS> mgdm: it's very confusing.. and the guy who manages the ciscos wasn't on-site
[19:36] <MartijnVdS> mgdm: also, the server room has no 3g/gsm coverage 8-(
[19:36] <mgdm> bah
[19:36]  * mgdm did a CCNA a few years ago
[19:36] <mgdm> every now and again, it becomes useful
[19:37] <Dave2> do they teach you how to use IOS?
[19:37] <MartijnVdS> mgdm: I can imagine
[19:37] <mgdm> Yes
[19:37] <mgdm> I'm slightly surprised Cisco didn't react a bit more when Apple decided on that name
[19:40] <MartijnVdS> mgdm: IBM didn't respond to PS2 either
[19:41]  * daubers had a CCNA until recentl
[19:41] <daubers> y
[19:42] <daubers> mgdm, thry did, apple licence it I think
[19:42] <Dave2> Especially after the whole iPhone thing.
[19:45] <jutnux> Anyone here have a system76 machine?
[19:46] <MarquessDeBonBon> Dave2, my old friend.
[19:46] <MartijnVdS> ooh new Infinitte Monkey Cage
[19:46] <jutnux> Hello MarquessDeBonBon \o
[19:47] <MarquessDeBonBon> Anybody watching the Man Shitty - Chelski game?
[19:53] <jacobw> TIMC is great :)
[19:54] <jutnux> What is the score so far MarquessDeBonBon?
[19:55] <MarquessDeBonBon> 0 - 0
[19:55] <MarquessDeBonBon> Though to be fair the match hasn't started yet.
[19:56] <jutnux> Oh, HAHAHHA.
[19:59] <jacobw> jutnux: they're well priced even cosidering the cost to ship them to the UK
[20:00] <jutnux> I thought they seemed a little expensive.
[20:00] <jutnux> Might have to look again.
[20:01] <jacobw> jutnux: you can get a machine equivilent to a £1500 thinkpad for £800
[20:01] <jacobw> jutnux: that's including shipping
[20:01]  * jutnux has a look
[20:03] <jutnux> So you can
[20:03] <jutnux> Woah
[20:03] <jutnux> 16gb machine
[20:03] <jutnux> i7 quad core
[20:03] <jutnux> £723
[20:03] <MartijnVdS> cheap
[20:05] <jutnux> Indeed
[20:07] <jutnux> Definitely getting my next machine off of there
[20:07] <jutnux> if I don't build it myself
[20:10] <MarquessDeBonBon> i7 quad-core = huge waste of money unless you're transcoding.
[20:11] <MarquessDeBonBon> A quad-core i5 is as fast in all but a few niche tasks.
[20:11] <jutnux> Umhm.
[20:11] <jutnux> I don't think I'd need 16gb of ram either
[20:11] <jutnux> 8gb would be fine
[20:11] <jacobw> someone on #ubuntu-uk saying you can have too much computing power?
[20:11] <jacobw> this is odd
[20:11] <MarquessDeBonBon> jacobw: he's obviously trying to run Unity.
[20:11] <jacobw> haha
[20:12] <davmor2> bar them kick them off the channel now
[20:12] <MarquessDeBonBon> For that he needs 8x Westmere-EX 10-core CPUs with 384gb of RAM and 4x GTX 580s all submerged in LN2..
[20:12] <jutnux> Hahaha.
[20:13] <jutnux> Take it you both dislike Unity ;)
[20:13]  * DJones o ps up & kicks jacobw :)
[20:13] <MarquessDeBonBon> Careful
[20:13] <MarquessDeBonBon> jutnux = Mark Shuttleworth
[20:13] <DJones> For suggesting that unity won't run on a 386SX
[20:13] <MarquessDeBonBon> Won't it? :o
[20:13] <Darael> It probably will, but that's not to say it'll run usably fast.
[20:14] <jutnux> Hahaha.
[20:14] <MarquessDeBonBon> 16gb of RAM is overkill. I built a 12gb system a year ago, and I rarely use even 6gb.
[20:14] <ali1234> none of ubuntu will run on even a i586 machine
[20:14] <jacobw> 8gb of ram sounds ridiculous enough to me
[20:14] <DJones> Only with a user upgrade to control the system upgrade
[20:14] <Darael> ali1234: A fair point, that, actually.
[20:14] <MarquessDeBonBon> 8gb means you never have to swap to disk.
[20:14] <ali1234> currently using 14 of 16GB here
[20:15] <MarquessDeBonBon> ali1234, doing what?
[20:15] <jutnux> What are you running o.0
[20:15] <DJones> Must say, my 4gb machine has never used swap even transcodeing video
[20:15] <ali1234> firefox
[20:15] <MarquessDeBonBon> Hahaha
[20:15] <Darael> The more RAM one has, the more swap is necessary if one wishes to hibernate at any point.
[20:15] <MarquessDeBonBon> I was about to say the most memory-hungry app I run is Firefox.
[20:15] <jutnux> HAHHAHAHAH
[20:15] <DJones> ali1234: thats what you get trying to cache google.com :)
[20:15] <jutnux> Got to love Chromium
[20:15] <MarquessDeBonBon> Firefox routinely uses 2gb on my Windows machine.
[20:15]  * jacobw doesn't love chromium
[20:16] <davmor2> no thunderbird makes firefox look like a rank amateur
[20:16] <MarquessDeBonBon> Even the likes of Skyrim (I play on High, 2560x1440) only use 1gb.
[20:16] <ali1234> transcoding doesn't use ram, neither does games
[20:16] <MarquessDeBonBon> ...
[20:16] <ali1234> whtat uses up ram is badly coded programs that try to reimplement swap memory and disc caching
[20:17] <MarquessDeBonBon> I'll tell you what uses RAM: databases.
[20:17] <MarquessDeBonBon> And games...
[20:17] <davmor2> transcoding and and games use CPU time not so much memory
[20:17] <jacobw> and ewes :p
[20:17] <MarquessDeBonBon> Transcoding not so much since it's all done on the graphics card or GPU now.
[20:17] <ali1234> lolno
[20:18] <davmor2> jussi: you there?
[20:18] <MarquessDeBonBon> Do you know what QuickSync is? Probably not.
[20:18] <MarquessDeBonBon> There's also Badaboom.
[20:19]  * jacobw ponders another episode of 'house' vs studying python
[20:20] <ali1234> none of that stuff works on linux
[20:20] <DJones> jacobw: Having seen an occasional episode of House, I'd say studying python wins
[20:21] <ali1234> if you install a patched mplayer you can get h264 playback in hardware on nvidia
[20:21] <davmor2> MarquessDeBonBon: I'm assuming those are Windows apps
[20:21] <ali1234> that's about it
[20:23] <MarquessDeBonBon> davmor2: yes.
[20:24] <popey> ali1234: didnt think you needed patched mplayer
[20:25] <popey> I dont use patched mplayer here for it, just install libvdpau
[20:25] <ali1234> the one in the repos only does mpeg2 last time i checked
[20:25] <ali1234> ie dvd
[20:25] <popey> i have done it recently on my revo
[20:25] <popey> 11.10
[20:26] <ali1234> well that's progress at least
[20:27] <davmor2> night all
[20:28] <zleap> hi
[20:28] <gord> mplayer has done h264 vdpau support for a long long time
[20:29] <zleap> I have just tried to install the foomatic-db package and clicking apply it wants to Remove Ubuntu-desktop
[20:29] <jutnux> Procrastination :-(
[20:29] <zleap> ?
[20:29] <MartijnVdS> gord: va-api > vdpau imho
[20:29] <MartijnVdS> gord: as it also works on other chips than nvidia
[20:30] <gord> MartijnVdS, i don't care, i only get nvidia ;)
[20:30] <MartijnVdS> I'm never buying nvidia every again :)
[20:30] <gord> everything else is terrible, bad drivers, bad chips. ew.
[20:30] <ali1234> nvidia drivers are pretty bad
[20:31] <MartijnVdS> Intel's are the least worst
[20:31] <gord> i work with these drivers every day, i fight with them. nvidia works 99% of the time how you expect, the rest are terrible
[20:31] <gord> intel among the worst offenders, just because they are open source doesn't mean they are good
[20:31] <gord> intel flat out lie
[20:31] <MartijnVdS> gord: except when you're a user and not a 3d/gl dev
[20:31] <ali1234> why is unity-2d so much faster on nvidia then?
[20:31] <MartijnVdS> gord: nvidia and ati break on EVERY upgrade
[20:32] <gord> well that will depend on your chipset and system, but unity-2d uses 2d acceleration so i would expect it to be rather nippy
[20:32] <ali1234> every time i click on the spread in unity i get a 5 second delay
[20:32] <ali1234> and dragging windows is really laggy too
[20:35] <jutnux> Works fine for me
[20:36] <jacobw> 1 datapoint
[22:01] <ali1234> popey: what energy monitor do you have?
[22:05] <mgdm> o_O
[22:09] <bigcalm> mgdm: I did a horrible thing. IRC bot in PHP
[22:10] <mgdm> bigcalm: you're not the first :)
[22:11] <mgdm> not that that makes it less evil
[22:11] <bigcalm> :D
[22:11] <bigcalm> I'm proud of my little achievement. At least it was a learning experience
[22:14] <mgdm> wotsit do?
[22:15] <bigcalm> !info tig
[22:15] <tig> Info about tig: Twitter IRC Gateway. Written by bigcalm in PHP. Modular addons are welcome.
[22:15] <bigcalm> Haha
[22:16] <mgdm> hehe
[22:16] <bigcalm> The original intention was for it to gate tweets for various minecraft people to #ubuntu-uk-minecraft. The bot I was using (written by dg in perl) didn't handle IRC and Twitter hickups very well, so decided to write my own
[22:16] <gord> think i figured out a new drinking game, watch a bbc nature documentary, drink whenever you see an ubuntu release. this may explain why its not precice penguin, we would all die from alcohol poisoning
[22:17] <bigcalm> In the process of writing it, I found the best way was to make it modular. Thus it now also does factoids
[22:17] <bigcalm> !info popey
[22:17] <tig> Info about popey: (born January 8, 1935) was one of the most popular American singers of the 20th century. A cultural icon, he is widely known by the single name Elvis. He is often referred to as the "King of Rock and Roll" or simply "the King".
[22:18] <bigcalm> gord: you just want an excuse for a drink ;)
[22:18] <gord> always
[22:18] <gord> have you seen how many penguins are in frozen planet though? its a lot
[22:19] <bigcalm> Tesco are selling a lovely mulled ginger wine. Might have me another glass tonight
[22:19] <bigcalm> Bottle doesn't last long, good job it's only 2.99
[22:22] <bigcalm> I might have to add cowsay to tig next
[22:27] <bigcalm> Wow...
[22:27] <bigcalm> cowsay -l | grep -v "^Cow" | sed -e "s% %\n%g" | sed -e "s%\(.*\)%cowsay -f \1 Now I am a \1%" | sh | less
[22:30] <bigcalm> !learn cowsay = cowsay -l | grep -v "^Cow" | sed -e "s% %\n%g" | sed -e "s%\(.*\)%cowsay -f \1 Now I am a \1%" | sh | less
[22:30] <tig> I now know that cowsay = cowsay -l | grep -v "^Cow" | sed -e "s% %\n%g" | sed -e "s%\(.*\)%cowsay -f \1 Now I am a \1%" | sh | less
[22:30] <tig> This information can be retrieved with: !info cowsay
[22:30] <tig> If you need to remove it, use: !forget cowsay
[22:30] <bigcalm> !info cowsay
[22:30] <tig> Info about cowsay: cowsay -l | grep -v "^Cow" | sed -e "s% %\n%g" | sed -e "s%\(.*\)%cowsay -f \1 Now I am a \1%" | sh | less
[22:34] <Azelphur> bigcalm: what does all that do? :P
[22:34] <bigcalm> Azelphur: install cowsay and find out :)
[22:35] <Azelphur> :P
[22:35] <bigcalm> It's safe
[22:36] <Azelphur> indeed, :D
[22:46] <AlanBell> just found a coil of solder from Tandy, 40% lead
[22:50] <exobuzz> AlanBell, good for the brain
[22:52] <gordonjcp> AlanBell: ah, the good stuff
[22:52] <gordonjcp> I wonder when the environmental lobby are going to get round to banning lead-free solder?
[23:36] <AlanBell> window 56
[23:37] <bigcalm> That's a lot of windows
[23:37] <AlanBell> wasn't the highest either
[23:37] <bigcalm> Oh my
[23:37] <AlanBell> top score right now is my aquarius window at number 70
[23:38] <AlanBell> or bottom score, depending on how you look at it
[23:45] <ubuntubhoy> I do well to remember 7 windows, never mind 70
[23:48] <Laney> adv_windowlist \o/
[23:52] <funkyHat> I have bindings for windows up to 100
[23:53] <funkyHat> Highest window right now is 67 though (and there are a lot of gaps)
[23:55] <jacobw> what are you talking about?
[23:56] <AlanBell> jacobw: irssi window numbers (it is an IRC client)
