=== NOPA-SOPA is now known as MH0 [06:58] morning all [08:02] morning [08:04] morning [08:07] aloha [08:18] Morning [08:23] daubers: http://www.irishexaminer.com/breakingnews/ireland/minister-considering-broadcasting-charge-whether-you-have-a-tv-or-not-536421.html [08:23] is how Ireland plans to deal with the tv fee [08:25] jumping straight from fees lost to evasion, to charging people who don't have TVs, seems like a bit of a wild leap [08:25] nods [08:26] but in some ways it's true, many people dont have tvs have laptops now and watch stuff via it [08:28] so now I need a laptop license :) [08:33] czajkowski: Meh. I have no argument with the licence fee, just with the way it's enforced [08:35] I'm no fan of the license fee here. the value returned on it seems incredibly low. [08:42] I can see the cultural value to tg4, but the main value of RTE seems to be to make sure that you can still watching Neighbours if you don't receive the bbc by other means [08:47] What do people recommend in terms of forum software these days? [08:50] daubers: google groups? :) [08:51] swat_: I've been told by someone that they want a forum and not just google groups [08:51] It's been specifically specified [09:20] phpbb comes with lots of nice sql injection features [09:21] handy if you forget your password [09:27] Good morning meeps [09:29] MEEP! [09:30] my son's favourite word [09:30] :D [09:32] shame about Kodak, couldn't adapt to the market [09:32] maybe they could have injected their cash pile into making cheap and easy 3d printers for homes rather than switching from photography to inkjet printers [09:33] As companies get bigger and more successful they also become less adaptive [09:33] oimon: My favourite word at the minute rhymes with "meep" Its sleep [09:33] neep is a character from abney and teal, a wonderful programme [09:34] AlanBell: is this happy hour happening tonight? [09:35] * bigcalm_lappy waves bye bye to London [09:55] Good day, all. :) [09:57] Like that this train is zipping though stations without stopping [10:02] daubers: no idea, just need one that's regularly maintained presumably [10:16] good morning everyone, [10:18] Morning over there [10:18] morning pretties [10:20] morning bigcalm_lappy and christel [10:21] @search paleo [10:21] * bigcalm_lappy curls up and hides from the world [10:21] Last night was good [10:21] what did you do bigcalm_lappy [10:21] christel: drank and had yummy curry [10:22] ah :) [10:23] * bigcalm_lappy gives up trying to do work [10:24] haha [10:24] * s-fox just gives up, full stop [10:24] :D [10:25] aww [10:29] why do all the nice jobs that I want to apply for need to be somewhere far away? I don't want to move to Belfast [10:29] even Glasgow is a bit far [10:30] ;___; [10:30] Glasgow is the centre of the universe [10:30] Everything happens in Glasgow. The rest is just virtual. [10:32] Hi, I am getting the error message 'Not allowed' when trying to access a USB memory stick [10:32] I am running 11.10 [10:32] Any ideas? [10:38] Hmm. [10:40] d3ngar: "Not allowed" doesn't sound like the full error message [10:40] d3ngar: can you give us the error message verbatim? [10:46] Myrtti: Glasgow's quite good [10:47] gordonjcp: I'm afraid I don't see anything else in Nautilus [10:47] "Unable to mount DATABAR Not authorized [10:48] I am member of the plugdev group [10:48] gordonjcp: yeah, I don't doubt that, I'd move there in a heartbeat if I were alone [10:48] move to East Ren and the schools are also top notch [10:49] short commute to city centre [10:51] so... n9 [10:54] i have never been to glasgow :s [10:54] Been to glasgow a coulpe of times. Reinforced my "I hate cities" thinking [10:55] hehe [10:55] i am not a big fan of cities [10:55] cities are wonderful fantastic places [10:56] i'd rather have acres of land, a farmhouse in the middle of nowhere and no neighbours :) [10:56] where else can you get mugged for a fish supper but in a city [11:03] should go to Edinburgh to dig up some more information about BF's family history [11:04] drove through glasgow once. we locked the doors [11:04] christel: stick "G66 1RS" into gooooooooogle maps [11:04] Does everyone here use Ubuntu as their default system? [11:05] smittix: most, i'd guess [11:05] for desktop, yes [11:05] christel: that's actually dropping the pin about 100m up from my house [11:05] * christel tickles sladen [11:05] gordonjcp: ooh [11:06] smittix: I do now [11:08] Cool, Was just wondering. I Was having a conversation in Fedora. It appeared that most of them actually used a different os as their default. [11:08] Mainly Windows. [11:09] heh [11:09] I'm split about 50/50 between Ubuntu and Arch [11:10] I haven't tried Arch yet. [11:10] with other weird outliers like Haiku as appropriate [11:10] I have been using Fedora for past week though. [11:10] arch doesn't exist [11:10] Haiku is nice. [11:10] it's a virtual OS quoted by internet trolls [11:10] HEH [11:11] morning ratfans [11:12] if anyone is on 12.04 could you please confirm bug 914354 ?
