[09:19] <DJones> morning
[09:20] <dwatkins> hiya DJones
[09:21] <DJones> i thought i was the only one awake
[09:22] <DJones> 14 hours with no comments in the channel, that could be a record
[09:23] <popey> http://www.pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/256728/ubuntu_os_for_smartphones_may_come_next_year.html
[09:24] <popey> morning btw
[09:28] <brobostigon> good morning everyone.
[09:30] <AlanBell> morning
[09:31] <Laney> greeeeeeeetings
[09:31] <brobostigon> morning AlanBell , Laney and popey
[09:33] <dwatkins> is today a bank holiday in the south as well as in Scotland?
[09:33] <brobostigon> yes
[09:33] <dwatkins> ah, no wonder people weren't talking much until recently :)
[09:36] <brobostigon> my drum teacher, teaches today, so it is lesson day for me, like normal.
[09:38] <dwatkins> I look forward to having a drum kit again someday.
[09:38] <brobostigon> :)
[09:38] <brobostigon> dwatkins: i am saving, aswe speak.
[09:49] <dwatkins> sadly I had to give up my kit when I moved
[09:49] <brobostigon> :(
[09:49] <dwatkins> it was only a cheap 2nd hand one, though
[09:49] <dwatkins> not really very complete
[09:49] <brobostigon> ah.
[10:34] <dogmatic69> After some updates yesterday I can no longer use byobu. It seems the shortcut keys are not being sent
[10:35] <dogmatic69> eg: pushing F7 used to make the screen scrollable, now it just does a ~
[11:13] <DJones> dogmatic69: Updates on the machine running byobu, or updates on the machine ssh'd into the server
[11:15] <dogmatic69> DJones: both :/
[11:16] <dogmatic69> server is 11.10 and local is 12.04
[11:16] <mattt> i really want one of these dock-able phones
[11:16] <dogmatic69> server did not have major updates, local was 150mb and I saw the issue I submitted about key bindings from VM's has been looked at
[11:18] <DJones> dogmatic69: I've not had any issues with that, my laptop had updates yesterday, server hasn't had updates for a few days, although I don't use function keys for anything
[11:22] <penguin42> hmph back to work tomorrow after a bit more than a week off :-(
[11:26] <penguin42> it means waking up before midday
[11:26] <dogmatic69> DJones: I just tried minicom which uses some key bindings in terminal and that works ok
[11:46] <dogmatic69> DJones: I wonder if it has anything to do with X?
[11:47] <dogmatic69> I set up the Xauth stuff a while back to see what that is all about, yesterday I rebooted the server for the first time in a while and it could be that
[13:02]  * AlanBell decides to plan a bit of a party
[13:03] <brobostigon> :)
[13:03] <AlanBell> and you are all invited
[13:03] <brobostigon> cool, thank you, where is it?
[13:04] <AlanBell> Farnham
[13:04] <AlanBell> just trying to figure out when
[13:04] <brobostigon> ah.
[13:05] <_2E0BXQ> AlanBell: as in on the Hants/Surrey border?
[13:06] <AlanBell> _2E0BXQ: yup
[13:06] <_2E0BXQ> ah, awesome :o
[13:06]  * _2E0BXQ is near Southampton :D
[13:15] <penguin42> AlanBell: Are the chicken invited?
[13:20] <AlanBell> of course :)
[14:32] <SuperEngineer> Was that the the Wing Commander leading the flypast?
[16:27] <MartijnVdS> _the_ Wing Commander? :)
[16:27]  * MartijnVdS makes a spotify playlist
[16:29] <MartijnVdS> the Linux version isn't too bad
[16:41] <diplo> evening all
[16:55] <MartijnVdS> hi
[16:59] <AlanBell> http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/umavd/iama_ubuntu_community_manager_at_canonical/ if anyone has any questions for Jono, the Ubuntu community manager
[17:45] <ali1234> are marco ceppi and michael hall jono's sock puppets or what?
[17:47] <ali1234> has anyone ever seen all three of them in the same room at the same time?
[17:47] <MartijnVdS> [no 'your mom' joke here]
[18:07] <AlanBell> ali1234: mhalll119 is indeed a paid sock puppet
[18:08] <AlanBell> or member of jono's team
[18:08] <ali1234> yeah i know
[18:08] <MartijnVdS> heh http://blog.crysys.hu/2012/06/stuxnet-duqu-flame-open-source-license-questions-v0/
[18:08] <ali1234> do they have desks right next to each other though?
[18:08] <AlanBell> no, mhall is in florida, jono is in california
[18:09] <AlanBell> I have seen all three in the same bar
[18:10] <DJones> I can see the headline to that "Jono in bar shocker" :)
[18:11] <AlanBell> one drink with three straws
[18:27] <penguin42> you can tell G+ is full of Geeks, currently trending up - International Telecommunications Union
[18:33] <dwatkins> penguin42: yeah, which is why it puzzled me that Justin Bieber was trending on there recently.
[18:34] <AlanBell> probably due to lots of people saying "who on earth is Justin Bieber?"
[18:34] <penguin42> haha I don't know
[18:38] <dwatkins> AlanBell: if only ;)
[18:44] <SuperEngineer> Justin Bieber, Jono Bacon - both silly stage names, both with initials JB - has anybody *ever* seen seen them in the same place or are my nightmares coming true
[18:45] <AlanBell> hmm, I have never seen Justin Bieber at UDS (not that I would recognise him) you could be onto something here
[18:45]  * SuperEngineer screams
[18:46] <MartijnVdS> AlanBell: you have daughters of almost Bieber-fangirl age
[18:46] <AlanBell> yeah, apparently it is highly uncool to like him
[18:47] <MartijnVdS> so that's why he's trending on twitter every day ;)
[18:47] <brobostigon> uds, hmmm, sponsership for a nobody, ex sys admin, :(
[18:48] <AlanBell> if you are an Ubuntu Member and you have not been to a UDS before then sponsorship is fairly likely
[18:48] <AlanBell> you get a point for each
[18:48] <brobostigon> like those irish boys/twins, whateevr there name are, equally pointless.
[18:49] <brobostigon> AlanBell: exactly, i knew this, it was a joke.
[18:49] <AlanBell> jedward. I am not sure if it is cool to like them.
[18:49] <AlanBell> brobostigon: mine wasn't :)
[18:49] <brobostigon> AlanBell: very uncool to like them.
[18:49] <brobostigon> AlanBell: yes, i knew, :), mine was.
[19:18] <brobostigon> mary and max, film4, 11:45pm, good film,

[20:04] <bigcalm> DJones: was grand ta. Indeed I'm back. Glad to be back in my office so I can get things done, but I was getting used to not having any priorities/todos/meetings/conference calls/responsibility
[20:05] <czajkowski> bigcalm: it's still holiday time :)
[20:05] <bigcalm> czajkowski: as was yesterday, when I also did a little work
[20:05] <bigcalm> Easing myself in gently ;)

[20:13] <bigcalm> 6 weeks to RAT \o/
[20:15]  * bigcalm hugs the radiator
[20:15] <bigcalm> I love how silly the weather is in this country
[20:16] <DJones> bigcalm: Its bank holiday weekend, its perfectly normal weather for that
[20:17] <bigcalm> DJones: good point :)
[20:17] <ging> why is it silly ?
[20:44]  * Laney is chillaxing thanks to MartijnVdS 
[20:51] <bigcalm> Solid Steel podcasts are keeping me company while I work
[20:52] <bigcalm> Oh, £100 cheque from HP. Best bank that in the morning
[21:00] <dr_balor> czajkowski: How on earth do people just not get it!
[21:01] <dr_balor> (I'd use more interesting language, but this is a family channel)
[21:03] <dr_balor> czajkowski: and I'm also blaming you for Lorraine's 11.04 machine not being able to connect to our new wireless box (my Fedora laptop works fine :) )
[21:05] <AlanBell> dr_balor: I believe czajkowski said goodnight to IRC in a different channel
[21:06] <bigcalm> Still full, need nibbles. Gah
[21:06] <dr_balor> AlanBell: I'll have to text her with my insights on life then.
[21:06] <czajkowski> dr_balor: 12.04 working on wifi here
[21:07] <czajkowski> dr_balor: you sure you didn't break it just to have a moan at me :)
[21:07] <AlanBell> dr_balor: I may be wrong about that ;)
[21:07] <dr_balor> czajkowski: But it's this one laptop on this one specific new access point :)
[21:07] <czajkowski> AlanBell: saw my name highlighted ;) only reason
[21:07] <czajkowski> dr_balor: upgrade her to 12.04 ?
[21:07] <bigcalm> AlanBell: we're 6 weeks away from the RAT. Time to update the event page with who is going?
[21:08] <czajkowski> dr_balor: or........... file a bug :)
[21:08] <dr_balor> czajkowski: I'll do it when she's asleep
[21:08] <czajkowski> hehe
[21:08] <czajkowski> hows the monsters?
[21:08] <dr_balor> czajkowski: but on this more important sexism thing.  How on earth do people just not get it?
[21:08] <dr_balor> Monsters are all fine, if you count not sleeping as being fine
[21:08] <bigcalm> dr_balor: congratulations on the doctorate
[21:09] <AlanBell> bigcalm: ah yes, and there has been comment spam on that event http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-uk/1603/detail/
[21:09] <czajkowski> dr_balor: I never sleep! and I've no monsters
[21:09] <dr_balor> bigcalm: thanks.  Being rude, do I know you?
[21:09] <bigcalm> AlanBell: haha
[21:09] <czajkowski> for content folks http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/06/04/asus-rear-tweet_n_1567696.html?ref=fb&src=sp&comm_ref=false
[21:10] <bigcalm> dr_balor: unlikely, I thought you were somebody else from here with a similar nick :)
[21:10] <czajkowski> dr_balor: I dont know why folks don't get it, I dont see why advertising laptops has to be glamorous in any way.
[21:10] <czajkowski> he was balor and now dr_balor
[21:10] <bigcalm> That's what I thought
[21:11] <dr_balor> bigcalm: thanks again then :)
[21:11] <bigcalm> dr_balor: I've been here a few years now. Mostly active during work days though
[21:11] <dr_balor> czajkowski: In fairness, it's not an ego thing, but a nick clash thing.  balor in work, dr_balor at home
[21:11] <AlanBell> so who is going to the RAT?
[21:11] <bigcalm> o/
[21:11] <bigcalm> and Hayley
[21:12] <czajkowski> Jon and I
[21:12] <AlanBell> czajkowski and jon, bigcalm and Hayley, AlanBell all by himself
[21:12] <dr_balor> czajkowski: I've got no problem with advertising laptops being glamouous.  I just don't define half-naked people as being the only interpretation of glamour
[21:12] <czajkowski> nods
[21:12] <bigcalm> AlanBell: christel, bryn_s
[21:12]  * dr_balor has never been on the RAT and should change this
[21:12] <AlanBell> there was no lack of clothes in this one really
[21:13] <dr_balor> AlanBell: no...true enough.
[21:13] <czajkowski> dr_balor: you need tocome met us more
[21:13] <AlanBell> popey might be on the RAT, I forget
[21:13] <czajkowski> *meet
[21:13] <bigcalm> AlanBell: popey
[21:13] <dr_balor> I still owe popey beers
[21:13] <AlanBell> I think people should press the add comment button to say they are going
[21:13] <AlanBell> I did already, but I was logged in as czajkowski :)
[21:14] <bigcalm> popey would die quickly if he were to cash in all of the beers that he's owed
[21:14] <bigcalm> Haha
[21:14] <czajkowski> AlanBell: oh was that at uds hah
[21:15] <czajkowski> during my epic not so wise desktop image choice
[21:15] <AlanBell> czajkowski: yeah, that was a rather funny session all round
[21:15] <czajkowski> have you seen this weeks :)
[21:15] <AlanBell> yeah

[21:17] <czajkowski> heheh :)
[21:50] <ali1234> heh... if you're going to put your game assets into a renamed and password protected zip file, it's a good idea not to put the password into the game binary as a simple C string :)
[21:51] <AlanBell> oops, who did that then?
[21:52] <ali1234> one of the games in humble bundle 5
[21:52] <AlanBell> and you just stumbled upon it?
[21:53] <ali1234> it was a bit harder than that
[21:53] <AlanBell> heh
[21:53] <AlanBell> like tripping and falling all the way to the top of the stairs
[21:55] <ali1234> they even used an 11 character random alphanumeric password
