|---|---|---|
| diplo | Morning all | 07:20 |
| Azelphur | :( ebuyer are now irritating me too, Buy a nexus 7 they said, free next day shipping they said...what they actually meant was £7.99 for two day shipping xG | 07:24 |
| Azelphur | XD | 07:24 |
| DJones | If you have android and you don't have flash player installed and are likely to ever want it in future, http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/08/14/adobe_pull_android_flash_wendesday/ | 07:27 |
| Azelphur | yay | 07:29 |
| DJones | Has anybody come across a working way of having a google drive mounted as a folder yet in ubuntu, last time I looked the google-docs-fs seemed to have vanished/been disabled | 07:34 |
| bigcalm | Good morning peeps :) | 07:37 |
| ali1234 | nice. well i guess it isn't same to write to NTFS any more with ubuntu | 07:43 |
| ali1234 | anything you write just ends up in lost files | 07:44 |
| brobostigon | good morning everyone. | 08:24 |
| czajkowski | aloha | 08:27 |
| brobostigon | morning czajkowski | 08:27 |
| brobostigon | today is going to be interesting, humid, heavy winds, and heavy rain. | 08:28 |
| christel | PRETTIES <3 | 08:30 |
| brobostigon | morning christel | 08:31 |
| christel | helllooooo brobostigon and awesomekowski! | 08:32 |
| bigcalm | Good morning awake people :) | 08:33 |
| brobostigon | morning bigcalm :) | 08:33 |
| christel | "awake" | 08:42 |
| brobostigon | just about/ | 08:44 |
| diplo | <-- Asleep if I'm honest! | 08:46 |
| * diplo is not really functioning today | 08:46 | |
| brobostigon | last night, i actually got some sleep, first in weeks. | 08:46 |
| bigcalm | Started the day with a shower. Feeling more awake than I usually do | 08:48 |
| mungojerry | started the day with half-hour of train delays and a packed train :( | 08:48 |
| bigcalm | Working from home has it's perks :) | 08:49 |
| mungojerry | read a blog post about calligra author, looks interesting but seems to be vapourware atm? | 08:50 |
| mungojerry | strange that the announcement was the start of a project but was worded like a first release | 08:51 |
| mungojerry | is this the ugliest app around? http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-chUMkxEmTrc/UCkdrQd2VFI/AAAAAAAAAH8/er4ilQcyXoQ/s1600/amarok-2.6.0-screenie-take-1-orig.png | 08:52 |
| christel | i didnt go to bed all that late so i have no idea why i am so tired today | 08:54 |
| ali1234 | it doesn't look any worse than other KDE app | 08:54 |
| ali1234 | oxygen theme is really the only thing wrong with it | 08:55 |
| MartijnVdS | "Ooh there's some unused space. Let's add more bells and whistles!" | 08:55 |
| popey | kde still looks like a bad shareware app from the 80's | 08:56 |
| ali1234 | have you guys used windows recently? | 08:56 |
| ali1234 | it looks exactly like KDE | 08:56 |
| ali1234 | everything has menus and tabs and ribbons | 08:56 |
| ali1234 | and side panels | 08:56 |
| mungojerry | windows 7 did look a lot like kde 4 | 08:57 |
| ali1234 | windows just has a nicer theme... and nicer fonts | 08:57 |
| ali1234 | and a slightly more sane taskbar | 08:57 |
| mungojerry | the amarok screenshot is so cluttered and incongruous | 08:58 |
| mungojerry | it used to be a nice looking app in the 1.4 days | 08:58 |
| ali1234 | that amarok screenshot is a massive improvement over what it used to look like | 08:58 |
| mungojerry | no way | 08:58 |
| ali1234 | in like 2.0 | 08:58 |
| mungojerry | ok | 08:58 |
| mungojerry | 2.0 has loads of bare spare in weird places | 08:58 |
| ali1234 | this is what 2.0 looked like: http://al.robotfuzz.com/~al/random/kdefail.png | 08:59 |
| mungojerry | 2.6 is still an affront to my eyes | 08:59 |
| ali1234 | they finally got the vertical text to be in the middle of the tabs | 08:59 |
| Azelphur | ah, gotta love ebay | 09:18 |
| Azelphur | what you ordered: Item condition new, Galaxy S3 in perfect condition, comes with box, charger and earphones | 09:18 |
| Azelphur | what you got: galaxy S3 with scratches and holes punched in the casing, no earphones, no box, and screen lock still turned on. | 09:19 |
| Azelphur | LOL AND THE CHARGER IS BROKE | 09:19 |
| MartijnVdS | Azelphur: so.. file complaint with ebay/paypal, get money back | 09:20 |
| Azelphur | yea, I'm gonna | 09:20 |
| Azelphur | gonna message him first to see what he says | 09:21 |
| mungojerry | not much he can say is there? | 09:22 |
| mungojerry | he lied | 09:22 |
| Azelphur | ye | 09:22 |
| Azelphur | p | 09:22 |
| Azelphur | http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=221091503643&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:GB:1123#ht_500wt_1415 is what I ordered xD | 09:22 |
| Azelphur | gonna snap some photos lol | 09:22 |
| MartijnVdS | Azelphur: exactly what I was going to suggest | 09:23 |
| MartijnVdS | Azelphur: ebay may ask for proofs | 09:23 |
| Pendulum | morning | 09:24 |
| Azelphur | photos are uploading... | 09:26 |
| DJones | Azelphur: Looks dodgy to start with "selling due to upgrade" :) | 09:27 |
| Azelphur | indeed xD | 09:27 |
| Azelphur | https://www.dropbox.com/sh/x1btb0c9w9futq4/3mEOQEpIEW photos | 09:32 |
| Azelphur | http://pastebin.com/TgqZi6U5 is what I'm thinking of sending to the seller, sound good? | 09:37 |
| MartijnVdS | Those holes.. did it drop off the back of a lorry or something? | 09:37 |
| Azelphur | god knows man, seriously lol | 09:38 |
| Azelphur | this has clearly taken a heavy beating | 09:38 |
| MartijnVdS | the password suggests stolenness | 09:38 |
| Azelphur | especially image 3 of 10, you can't see it properly in the photo but that hole goes right through to the inner casing | 09:38 |
| Azelphur | I thought that too, I should check the IMEI | 09:38 |
| MartijnVdS | Azelphur: next time, http://www.clove.co.uk/samsung-galaxy-s3-blue ;) | 09:41 |
| Azelphur | hehe | 09:41 |
| Azelphur | only £142 more XD | 09:42 |
| Azelphur | also just what I always needed, norton! | 09:42 |
| MartijnVdS | just sell a bitcoin 8-) | 09:42 |
| Azelphur | haha | 09:42 |
| Azelphur | hmm, this thing has a password lock on it | 09:42 |
| Laney | yeah, clearly nicked | 09:43 |
| Azelphur | oh that's good the IMEI is on the back | 09:43 |
| MartijnVdS | behind the battery, usually | 09:43 |
| Azelphur | yea | 09:43 |
| Azelphur | that's weird the IMEI has slashes in it and this site I'm using says it should only be numbers | 09:43 |
| MartijnVdS | Azelphur: sometimes they add dashes for readability | 09:44 |
| Azelphur | ah | 09:44 |
| Azelphur | so just truncate the dashes | 09:44 |
| MartijnVdS | Azelphur: as long as you have the 15-16 digits you're good | 09:45 |
| Azelphur | yep, at least it doesn't appear to be stolen | 09:45 |
| Azelphur | MartijnVdS: there's a sticker on the inside behind the battery, small square, and it's got X's all over it, is that the water damage indicator telling me it's been water damaged? | 09:46 |
| MartijnVdS | Azelphur: no idea | 09:46 |
| Azelphur | to the internets | 09:46 |
| Azelphur | nope, that's not water damage, that's at least one point in it's favour | 09:47 |
| mgdm | the water damage things are smalll cicles of paper with ink on the back | 09:47 |
| mgdm | if it gets wet, the ink goes through | 09:47 |
| Azelphur | yea | 09:47 |
| Azelphur | lol the inside of the phone is so dusty too | 09:47 |
| Azelphur | message sent | 09:54 |
| jacobw | morning | 09:56 |
| directhex | looks nicked to me | 09:56 |
| directhex | nicked but unreported? | 09:56 |
| directhex | "selling due to upgrade" - upgrade from sg3? to what, a bullion bar with an antenna in the top? | 09:57 |
| mungojerry | is there a password on the lock screen | 09:58 |
| mungojerry | lol, so he couldn't unlock it so sold it | 09:58 |
| directhex | er, you're not the only scamee. | 09:59 |
| directhex | http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/221090440055#ht_500wt_1182 - negative feedback | 09:59 |
| directhex | "Acts like a scammer and doesn't deny it. Never do anything outside paypal." | 09:59 |
| jacobw | quick question, i'm working on a package that's >1GB unpacked, i don't want to repack it each time i change the DEBIAN/ files, i can't imagine the packagers unpack and repack large packages all the time | 10:00 |
| directhex | Azelphur, looks like a hacked ebay account. it's their first time selling ever, and it's a nicked mobile phone? | 10:00 |
| gord | jacobw: thus, foo and foo-data packages | 10:00 |
| directhex | jacobw, you don't change DEBIAN/ | 10:01 |
| Azelphur | directhex: it's not nicked as far as I know | 10:01 |
| mungojerry | my friend had his gmail hacked, and immediately they started buying of ebay | 10:01 |
| directhex | DEBIAN/ is machine generated from debian/ in the source package. if you're editing DEBIAN/ you're doing it wrong. also what gord said | 10:01 |
| Azelphur | directhex: yea, I noticed that, that feedback was placed after I bought it I guess | 10:01 |
| Azelphur | he had 100% when I bought it | 10:01 |
| directhex | Azelphur, sure. but it *is* though. it's a nicked phone on a nicked account. | 10:02 |
| Azelphur | directhex: how do you know that? | 10:02 |
| davmor2 | morning all | 10:02 |
| davmor2 | czajkowski: prod | 10:02 |
| jacobw | directhex: that makes sense, however i'm not packaging for the debian project, i'm just packaging for my own repository | 10:02 |
| czajkowski | davmor2: ello | 10:03 |
| directhex | jacobw, your call. you're just generating work for yourself is all. | 10:03 |
| mgdm | morning campers | 10:03 |
| jacobw | directhex: mysql-cluster-server being dropped from precise is generating work for me ;) | 10:04 |
| popey | how is that 1GB!? | 10:04 |
| directhex | Azelphur, you think a user who's never sold anything on ebay before suddenly has two never-used brand-new galaxy s3's spare due to an upgrade, which are neither new nor unused, and sells them on ebay? | 10:04 |
| Azelphur | directhex: he had 100% (25) feedback, that's not nothing, admittedly not much | 10:05 |
| jacobw | popey: oracle's package for squeeze (which only unpacks their binary distribution for squeeze to /opt) is statically built | 10:06 |
| popey | golly | 10:06 |
| directhex | Azelphur, 25 positive feedback *as a buyer* | 10:06 |
| Azelphur | ah | 10:06 |
| jacobw | i understand why it was dropped from precise, because the release from oracle wasn't ready in time and it was unclear what was going on at oracle | 10:07 |
| Azelphur | seller just got back to me, http://pastebin.com/rd92Cyfi | 10:07 |
| directhex | Azelphur, fingers crossed. still 101% super dodgy | 10:07 |
| Azelphur | indeed | 10:07 |
| mungojerry | it might be one s3 | 10:08 |
| jacobw | can you bump your $overall_rating by buying from yourself and returning positive reviews? | 10:08 |
| AlanBell | these accounts buy stuff from each other for 1p each | 10:08 |
| popey | sounds like bs | 10:08 |
| mungojerry | and the first attempt to sell failed | 10:08 |
| directhex | Azelphur, an any-condition sgs3 goes for £300 at fonebank.com, if he wanted to sell a knackered phone for lots of cash he could have done | 10:08 |
| AlanBell | jacobw: if you have multiple sock puppet accounts | 10:08 |
| Azelphur | directhex: *shrug* | 10:08 |
| popey | looks like delaying tactics | 10:08 |
| directhex | Azelphur, you paid via paypal? | 10:09 |
| Azelphur | directhex: yup | 10:09 |
| directhex | well, there's that at least, ifwhen he fails to give you a refund | 10:09 |
| Azelphur | yea | 10:09 |
| Azelphur | I've been told you can chargeback a direct debit? | 10:09 |
| directhex | chargeback against paypal? yikes, i wouldn't | 10:09 |
| Azelphur | apparently they just take it straight from the seller | 10:10 |
| directhex | paypal dispute procedure is much less likely to result in lawyerage | 10:10 |
| * Azelphur shrugs | 10:10 | |
| directhex | ebay is stacked against sellers these days. show good faith by waiting his little waiting period, then file a formal dispute via ebay | 10:11 |
| directhex | you'll get your money back, and be wiser | 10:11 |
| Azelphur | guess so | 10:11 |
| Azelphur | it's tempting to try and scam him back, but probably not a wise move | 10:11 |
| popey | *boggle* | 10:12 |
| directhex | terrible move. you'll lose your money | 10:12 |
| Azelphur | indeed | 10:12 |
| Azelphur | I shall go the sane route and wait | 10:12 |
| directhex | play by ebay's rules. they're brutally stacked against sellers. | 10:12 |
| Azelphur | yea | 10:12 |
| Azelphur | plus I got all this evidence, hard for him to really have a leg to stand on | 10:12 |
| popey | the description doesn't say "original box" | 10:13 |
| popey | it just says "box" | 10:13 |
| directhex | it does say new though. | 10:14 |
| Azelphur | popey: hehe I noticed, but that doesn't change the new, perfect condition, earphones, etc | 10:14 |
| directhex | Condition: | 10:14 |
| directhex | New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging is applicable). If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag. See the seller's listing for full details. | 10:14 |
| popey | ahh | 10:14 |
| * AlanBell wonders if the holes are because it was a working display unit in a store that got ripped off the fixture | 10:14 | |
| === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte | ||
| directhex | AlanBell, store display units are very VERY rarely real phones. they keep real phones behind the counter | 10:15 |
| Azelphur | I plugged the IMEI into a stolen phone finder, and into google and got nothing | 10:15 |
| AlanBell | I was in CPW farnham when two lads walked in an nicked an iphone | 10:15 |
| Azelphur | so if it has been stolen, nobody has bothered to register it | 10:15 |
| directhex | yeah, iphone is an exception, they have real display units. people are too reverential to damage them | 10:15 |
| directhex | seen the abuse all other display units get? | 10:16 |
| AlanBell | they had a display stand with a working iphone on it, the little lad ripped it off and ran out with it the big guy walked out slowly making sure nobody followed | 10:16 |
| directhex | scum are scum, news at 11 | 10:16 |
| popey | i doubt the IMEI would show up online | 10:16 |
| directhex | Azelphur, plenty of idiots wouldn't think to report their phone nicked | 10:17 |
| Azelphur | true | 10:17 |
| popey | and the networks aren't obliged to share that data | 10:17 |
| directhex | i don't know my imei, but wp7 has remote lock/wipe | 10:17 |
| popey | you could phone each uk network and tell them you bought a phone and ask if they supplied it :) | 10:18 |
| popey | they dont have to tell you of course | 10:18 |
| popey | but you could try | 10:18 |
| Azelphur | popey: it's a 3 phone | 10:18 |
| Azelphur | (it's branded) | 10:18 |
| popey | that makes things easier :) | 10:18 |
| Azelphur | I wonder if 3 would tell me if it was stolen if I called them | 10:18 |
| directhex | they'd know who they sold the phone to, by imei | 10:18 |
| * Azelphur shrugs | 10:18 | |
| Azelphur | yea, I imagine a name wouldn't help me too much | 10:19 |
| directhex | still, question remains r.e. dodgy description: what does one upgrade to from an sgs3? | 10:20 |
| Azelphur | directhex: some people like iphones xD | 10:20 |
| DJones | Aren't the operators required to block all reported stolen phones now by IMEI anyway, I thought that was brought in across Europe last year | 10:20 |
| directhex | yeah, i'm sure he paid for a retail sim-free iphone | 10:20 |
| popey | heh, i did :) | 10:20 |
| directhex | weirdo | 10:20 |
| directhex | when you could buy a lumia 710 for a hundred quid | 10:21 |
| popey | still no phones to match it :) | 10:21 |
| Azelphur | lol | 10:21 |
| directhex | wife is considering selling her htc sensation, and buying something on wp7. largely due to battery life. wp7 goes miles further on the same size battery | 10:21 |
| MartijnVdS | DJones: they do it in the UK, but in the Netherlands we don't have a stolen-SIM-register | 10:21 |
| MartijnVdS | directhex: because it can do less :P | 10:22 |
| popey | because it stays in your pocket? | 10:22 |
| directhex | popey, she can burn through most of the battery in less than an hour of active use. i can use mine as an mp3 player for 4 hours, actively use it for browsing etc for 2 hours, and still have 60% battery | 10:23 |
| popey | golly | 10:23 |
| popey | my htc hero was a bit rubbish on battery | 10:23 |
| Azelphur | I never run out of battery on anything ever http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170846891179 | 10:24 |
| MartijnVdS | My Galaxy Nexus can go for more than a day of moderate use | 10:24 |
| MartijnVdS | I _can_ burn the battery in a few hours if I want to.. but I don't want to :) | 10:24 |
| Azelphur | my solution wins, game over :P | 10:24 |
| directhex | she's also suffering from a horrid stuttering issue. frequently the ui just goes totally unresponsive, takes ~30 seconds to react to taps | 10:25 |
| MartijnVdS | Azelphur: you just buy a new phone every time the battery runs out? :P | 10:25 |
| Azelphur | MartijnVdS: hahaha | 10:25 |
| Azelphur | MartijnVdS: 15,000mAh portable battery, it can charge my laptop and phone multiple times | 10:26 |
| Azelphur | well my old laptop anyway, it doesn't seem to be compatible with my new lenovo :< | 10:26 |
| * TheOpenSourcerer finds the battery life on his S3 to be most excellent. | 10:26 | |
| * Azelphur shall try and hack it | 10:26 | |
| Azelphur | TheOpenSourcerer: did you see my brand new perfect condition S3 photos? XD | 10:27 |
| jussi | TheOpenSourcerer: I agree, I find similar | 10:27 |
| ormiret | Azelphur: what kind of laptop did you have that 67Whr was enough to charge it multiple times? | 10:27 |
| davmor2 | my s3 is much better now I have full charged it a few times | 10:27 |
| Azelphur | ormiret: inspiron mini duo, I only got the battery recently, but it did a full charge on it and the battery still had >50% remaining | 10:28 |
| directhex | every time i use an android phone, it's slow, unresponsive, and has crap battery. every time i moan about it, i'm told "oh, yeah, that happened on old phones. you need a new one, with moar cores and moar ram, it doesn't do that anymore" | 10:28 |
| directhex | and then i use a new one, with moar cores and moar ram. know what happens next? | 10:28 |
| Azelphur | it bursts into flames? | 10:28 |
| directhex | it's slow, unresponsive, and has crap battery. so i moan about it. | 10:28 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Azelphur: Nice. My S3 is in much better condition and I was one of the first to get one in the UK. | 10:28 |
| directhex | and i'm told "oh, yeah, that happened on old phones. you need a new one, with moar cores and moar ram, it doesn't do that anymore" | 10:28 |
| * Laney is still on N900 yo | 10:29 | |
| Azelphur | directhex: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDsOtdRtG0Q&t=0m35s very slow phone here :p | 10:29 |
| Azelphur | TheOpenSourcerer: nice :) | 10:29 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | And I still haven't got round to buying a case... | 10:30 |
| Azelphur | hehe | 10:30 |
| directhex | i loved the pre3, but it was soooooo buggy | 10:30 |
| directhex | i mean, crazy buggy | 10:30 |
| directhex | no idea how they shipped it so buggy | 10:30 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | WebOS is/was quite a ncie GUI in concept. | 10:31 |
| directhex | worse than evolution in precise | 10:31 |
| directhex | i didn't like the n9 one bit | 10:32 |
| directhex | better than the n900, maybe even by a couple of orders of magnitude | 10:33 |
| directhex | in that it took me a week to decide "er, no" not 15 minutes | 10:33 |
| directhex | pre3 was <3, if not for the bugs. | 10:33 |
| directhex | e.g. memory leak. it never freed memory in apps you quit, so it needed rebooting frequently | 10:33 |
| directhex | actually i think it was file descriptors or mountpoints or something it leaked, not memory, but some finite resource was never freed | 10:34 |
| directhex | and the mp3 player paused every few songs. infuriating! | 10:34 |
| directhex | loved the hardware and the ui. loved them. so nice. | 10:34 |
| directhex | battery life was on the short side, but better than htc sensation. | 10:35 |
| directhex | also, very hackable. real linux. | 10:36 |
| directhex | well..... real gnu. not "real linux". android kernel, since all embedded cpu devs these days only make android kernels | 10:36 |
| brobostigon | interesting, | 10:37 |
| Azelphur | directhex: you know what I should do, ask for a partial refund (£100) and then sell it to that site you mentioned for a profit XD | 10:40 |
| Azelphur | if it goes to dispute resolution anyway | 10:40 |
| AlanBell | then you get in trouble for selling a nicked phone | 10:41 |
| Azelphur | good point, *avoids that too* | 10:41 |
| jacobw | i think you should restrict yourself to backtracking only :) | 10:42 |
| Azelphur | indeed | 10:42 |
| Azelphur | it's #androids fault, they keep suggesting I do bad things | 10:42 |
| * Azelphur points | 10:42 | |
| jacobw | haven't you read 'do android dream of electric sheep'?, they're all out to get us :p | 10:43 |
| Azelphur | haha | 10:43 |
| mungojerry | is the picture quality degraded if i use a vga-vga cable rather than hdmi-hdmi cable from laptop to 24 in ch monitor | 10:47 |
| AlanBell | yes | 10:48 |
| gord | technically yes, you won't notice the difference | 10:48 |
| mungojerry | even if i'm working 1ft away? | 10:48 |
| AlanBell | you will notice the difference if you are using it as a monitor for text and general computerish stuff | 10:48 |
| mungojerry | not sure if it's the monitor or the cable | 10:48 |
| AlanBell | movies you will get away with it | 10:48 |
| mungojerry | doing text and close stuff | 10:49 |
| gord | eh what makes you think you'll notice the difference? | 10:49 |
| mungojerry | seems a bit dim and colours are a bit meh | 10:49 |
| AlanBell | because I notice the difference on my monitors between VGA and HDMI | 10:49 |
| mungojerry | even thought i've played with the monitor settings | 10:49 |
| gord | i think you have a dodgy monitor then ;) | 10:49 |
| mungojerry | the monitor only takes vga/dvi/dp | 10:49 |
| mungojerry | i have vga-vga or hdmi-hdmi | 10:49 |
| AlanBell | it might vary according to the quality of your VGA port (on the computer side mostly I expect) | 10:50 |
| ormiret | depends on your general noise environment and the DAC + ADC for the analogue path and how well shielded the cable is etc. Generally better off sticking to digital formats. | 10:51 |
| mungojerry | ok i just stole my colleagues hdmi-dvi cable and the difference is huge | 10:53 |
| AlanBell | yus, no need for gold plated connectors on digital formats ;) | 10:53 |
| mungojerry | the text is now clear and the calrity and colours are better | 10:53 |
| gord | i think you guys just have badly calibrated monitors ;) the signals are comparible unless you are doing something horrible like interlacing | 10:54 |
| popey | i have two monitors next to eachother driven from the same machine, one VGA, one DisplayPort, both are identical | 10:55 |
| AlanBell | there is a teeny tiny bit of bleed between pixels which makes it less sharp for me with VGA | 10:55 |
| mungojerry | the difference is very real here | 10:56 |
| Azelphur | popey++, my 4 monitors, one of them is an E2607WS (with DVI) while the others are E2607WSV (VGA Only), and you cannot tell the difference at all side by side | 11:00 |
| Azelphur | and I used them for like 3 years, so any differences between them I would have most likely noticed | 11:01 |
| AlanBell | yeah, probably decent graphic cards do fine, this is a built in laptop port | 11:01 |
| popey | this is built in laptop :) | 11:01 |
| AlanBell | yeah, but yours is a nice thinkpad and mine is a cheap Samsung (that I like very much) | 11:02 |
| jacobw | mungojerry: you can get cheap hdmi/dvi adapters | 11:02 |
| mungojerry | for the time being i hope that my colleague will not notice ...it was dangling unused | 11:03 |
| mungojerry | another strange effect is that swapping my wireless keyboard for a wired one has sped up my typing | 11:14 |
| mungojerry | does forwarding spam SMS to 7726 do anything? | 11:27 |
| mungojerry | apparently it reports it to your network provider | 11:27 |
| mungojerry | outlook.com reports 4 messages in my inbox. only 2 there. | 11:30 |
| popey | i have exactly two mails in my outlook.com inbox | 11:33 |
| popey | "Getting started with hotmail" | 11:34 |
| popey | "Get to know what's new in outlook" | 11:34 |
| Azelphur | yay for microsoft spam | 11:35 |
| mungojerry | popey, almost the same, but it thinks theres 4 | 11:38 |
| mungojerry | did you get popey@outlook | 11:38 |
| popey | nope | 11:39 |
| mungojerry | thats cos i got 5 aliases and nicked it :) | 11:39 |
| mungojerry | *may not be true | 11:39 |
| popey | i dont plan on using it, so I don't care | 11:39 |
| mungojerry | nor me, but hey | 11:40 |
| popey | just looked in to see what the fuss was about | 11:40 |
| mungojerry | ditto everybody else | 11:40 |
| mungojerry | they don't do the dot thing | 11:40 |
| mungojerry | so mungojerry@ is different from mungo.jerry | 11:40 |
| mungojerry | to be fair, gmail is the only one i've seen do that | 11:41 |
| popey | ok, so now I do have popey@outlook.com | 11:41 |
| mungojerry | :D | 11:41 |

| directhex | i had 3700 new mail in my outlook account | 11:46 |
| mungojerry | converted from hotmaail? | 11:46 |
| directhex | mostly spam from 2010 and earlier. hotmail antispam didn't work prior to then | 11:47 |
| mungojerry | which is why everyone moved to gmail in 2007 | 11:47 |

| jacobw | mungojerry: faster typing on a wired keyboard? | 11:54 |
| mungojerry | yeah, i think it's because the wireless one had lame amount of key depress | 11:55 |
| mungojerry | unsatisfying | 11:55 |
| mungojerry | but from a human perspective it just felt more sluggish than the wired one | 11:55 |
| mungojerry | ooh this looks cool, i wonder if i can get gnuplot to handle this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tupper%27s_self-referential_formula | 11:55 |
| jacobw | check out usbcore.autosuspend settings, sometimes the autosuspend settings for a USB port are set to turn it off after something like 0.1s of inactivitz | 11:56 |
| jacobw | http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_reduce_power_consumption#USB_Subsystem | 11:57 |
| jacobw | a value of -1 prevents autosuspending | 11:58 |

| mungojerry | what does 100.0% Device Audio codec hwC0D0: Analog Devices mean in powertop? | 12:04 |
| mungojerry | the other entries are 1us and stuff liek that | 12:05 |
| MartijnVdS | it means your sound device is eating battery | 12:09 |
| mungojerry | it's on my desktop, but could it cause slowness? | 12:10 |
| mungojerry | this PC is allegedly faster than my previous work PC but is incredibly sluggish, especially at i/o | 12:11 |
| MartijnVdS | could be, but unlikely... I guess | 12:15 |

| GirlyGirl | Hi, what do you guys expect the resale value of a 2010 corolla axio trd to be? | 15:53 |
| bittin | i only know strange people :( | 15:54 |
| popey | GirlyGirl, I'd look in autotrader | 15:55 |
| popey | see what comparable models go for | 15:55 |
| gord | popey: any idea what package is supposed to provide the org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences gsettings schema? | 15:56 |
| GirlyGirl | It has scratches on one door, damage to front and rear bumpers, denting on hood and a boot that doesn't always close so that would lower the value I guess | 15:57 |
| popey | gord, not off the top of my head | 15:57 |
| GirlyGirl | Blame the ex-owner for the scratch, me for the front damage and my sister for the rear damage lol | 15:58 |
| gord | grumble | 15:58 |
| bittin | you drive on the wrong side of the road there anyways :( | 15:59 |
| popey | s/wrong/left/ | 15:59 |
| bittin | must try to not forgot that when going there | 15:59 |
| MartijnVdS | yeah.. I want to go practice driving on the left | 15:59 |
| GirlyGirl | bittin: Why would I drive on the wrong side? | 15:59 |
| MartijnVdS | _before_ driving all the way to Cornwall in May :) | 16:00 |
| bittin | GirlyGirl, iam in sweden and here we drive on right side :D | 16:00 |
| MartijnVdS | so I might take a boat around Decemberish | 16:00 |
| bittin | but i don't even have a drivers license | 16:00 |
| MartijnVdS | bittin: you used to drive on the wrong side thoguh | 16:00 |
| bittin | yepp | 16:00 |
| bittin | but we stopped 1967 | 16:01 |
| bittin | years before i was born | 16:01 |
| GirlyGirl | I'm still deciding different things here 1) Sell it as it is 2)Repair and sell 3) Cut the bumper with a saw and keep using it | 16:04 |
| MartijnVdS | it's 2 years old.. wouldn't repair be worth it? | 16:05 |
| GirlyGirl | MartijnVdS: You don't get parts as its not sold here ... only in Japan | 16:05 |
| MartijnVdS | GirlyGirl: you don't need to, the repair people get the parts ;) | 16:06 |
| GirlyGirl | MartijnVdS: I know but its too expensive | 16:06 |
| GirlyGirl | because they need to get the parts | 16:06 |
| MartijnVdS | GirlyGirl: how are the parts only available in Japan? Was the car specially imported? | 16:07 |
| MartijnVdS | Because if the model was sold "normally" the parts should be available "normally" | 16:07 |
| GirlyGirl | MartijnVdS: Its a second hand import | 16:08 |
| GirlyGirl | Since the model is not sold here new, Toyota UK dealers refuse to service it | 16:08 |
| GirlyGirl | besides its functional and the damage doesn't bother me that much .. just that the bumper touches the tyre | 16:09 |
| MartijnVdS | what was the model again? | 16:09 |
| GirlyGirl | Corolla Axio TRD | 16:09 |
| MartijnVdS | I'd shop around for what people are willing to buy it for | 16:10 |
| GirlyGirl | But I'm unlikely to get a replacement car for the money it sells | 16:11 |
| MartijnVdS | but that depends on your situation really -- would selling it (and buying a new one) be cheaper than repair | 16:11 |
| GirlyGirl | Thats why I thing I'll use it with the damage ... definitely the cheapest | 16:11 |
| MartijnVdS | Open a savings account somewhere for the repair ;) | 16:12 |
| * MartijnVdS 's SMART needed a spring replaced last month.. and tyres.. and some other small things | 16:13 | |
| GirlyGirl | Well I did repair the front once and it was expensive, then I felt like I wasted money when the same place got damaged again | 16:14 |
