[01:50] <hads> Oh. Leaky house.
[01:56] <ibeardslee> your house?
[02:19] <hads> Yeah
[02:19] <hads> I hear yours too.
[02:22] <ibeardslee> yup .. worst part is is that it is not a 'Leaky Home'
[02:23] <ajmitch> just a home that leaks?
[02:24] <ibeardslee> same symptoms, just too old
[02:24] <hads> We aren't too bad. We have a concrete block retaining wall as part of the basement level. Seems it wasn't sealed properly and it's leaking.
[02:25] <hads> We have had 300mm of rain in the last week so I guess if it was ever to leak now is the time.
[02:26] <ibeardslee> I have a concrete wall doing the same thing in my garage
[02:28] <ajmitch> I'm sure it's nothing compared to the house I used to live in when I was at school - was around 100 years old & the central hallways was covred in buckets or anything that could hold water whenever it rained
[02:30] <ajmitch> of course that place got flattened by a digger & a new house built on the site
[02:32] <hads> It would have been nice if this wall leaked a few months ago when I lined out that wall.
[02:32] <ibeardslee> oh bugger
[02:32] <ajmitch> that is a pain
[02:33] <hads> Indeed. Been in the house for 3 years and /now/ it decides to leak.

[04:58] <ajmitch> that looks a bit damp
[04:59] <hads> QUite
[10:07] <ajmitch> hads: monitor sure is shiny, it'll take some getting used to this much screen space :)
[10:07] <ajmitch> running nicely at 2560x1440 with nvidia drivers
[10:19] <hads> ajmitch: Quite spacious isn't it.
[10:19] <hads> Did you have to add the IgnoreEDID thing?
[10:25] <ajmitch> yes
[10:26] <ajmitch> just added it in the Device section, that one line seemed to be enough
[10:26] <hads> Yeah same. Happy with it so far?
[10:26] <ajmitch> only problem I have is the length of the DVI cable, it seems a little too short
[10:27] <hads> You got a DVI cable? My box didn't have one.
[10:27] <ajmitch> colour is slightly off at the bottom of the screen, but it's only really noticeable on all-white
[10:27] <ajmitch> odd, I got a dual-link cable in the box
[10:27] <hads> Luckily I had one here.
[10:27] <hads> I haven't noticed a color issue on mine yet.
[10:28] <ajmitch> of course today would be the day my laptop power adapter finally stops working
[10:28] <ajmitch> so now the laptop battery is flat
[10:28] <hads> Doh.
[10:28] <ajmitch> from what I've read it's not uncommon with these HP adapters
[10:30] <ajmitch> I should be able to charge it at work, but the battery lasts < 1 hour now. good thing I've got a new laptop on its way
