[10:34] yes, my son deleted all my wife game saves [10:34] oops [10:35] dont see how you can restore them [10:35] started asking aboutakey to get into castle, then that moment of dread [10:36] it'sa ds XL,seems to havea sd cardslot [10:36] mine's just a ds [10:37] maybe i need action replay === oimon is now known as Guest69729 [11:47] blurgle blurgle [11:47] yeah those old os maps are the same series wot i have [11:47] Oogie boogie [11:48] Going from a mouse to a thumb trackball is very weird [11:51] Maybe I should have gone for a finger operated type [11:58] morning [12:26] bigcalm: I have a finger trackball at work, it has a slightly annoying scroll button, but otherwise I really like it [12:26] I keep the mouse on the other side of the keyboard for scrolling, but I'll probably just get a magic trackpad when I switch to using a Mac as my main machine. [12:39] Hi Peeps Anyone wanna hangout this morning ? https://diasp.eu/posts/738249 [13:03] afternoon :) [13:03] http://www.facebook.com/Justice4Jobseekers [13:24] Afternoon [13:27] hello daubers [13:29] * daubers gets the java book back out again [13:30] * MartijnVdS seeks cover === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away [15:01] wonders if MartijnVdS is around [15:05] * MartijnVdS is [15:06] :) hello [15:06] \o [15:07] have quick question [15:07] wouldnt it be, "wonders if * is around". ? [15:07] sorry, i didnt read it properly, :( [15:07] did i remember correctly that you have a few yann tiersen albums? [15:07] oimon: just the one [15:08] aww maybe i woke you from slumber wrongly [15:08] sorry if si [15:08] so [15:08] np :) [15:08] trying to choose another for someone to buy me for chrimstas [15:08] oimon: Amazon tends to have previews of the tracks :) [15:09] spotify and grooveshark have most between them [15:09] but he has 17 albums :S [15:09] some are a bit diferent [15:09] les retrouvailles seems very tabarly esque so looks a winner [15:10] did anyone notice that the price of CDs is creeping up to £15 again [15:12] depends on the CD [15:12] mostly stuff i want :( [15:12] old ones are £5ish [15:12] (old not used) [15:15] no spotify unity icon boo [15:18] it works sometimes, for me [17:36] yeh, noticed prices of CDs going up [18:04] * MartijnVdS just finished The Walking Dead [18:04] *still shaking* [18:05] heh, I've been catching up with that too. 24 episodes in 2 days was not clever [18:07] shauno: I played the game ;) [18:07] shauno: it has YOU making the tough decisions.. it's horrible! [18:07] :) [18:08] ah [18:09] I've just been trying to whittle away some very quiet shifts. games are less acceptable in the office, for reasons unknown [18:09] Weird! :) [18:10] indeed. I'd have thought anything that stops me falling asleep from sheer boredom would be in the company's better interest. oh well [18:10] is it that bad? [18:11] it can be. if nothing breaks, there's little to do [18:14] If only nothing broke where I work... [18:17] * directhex is scared of zombies [18:17] * directhex has killed about a dozen people so far in zombiu [18:17] sadly ethan, the guy who had a carbine and ammo, got eaten & vanished into the sunset [18:22] directhex: Walking Dead is.. not as much about zombies as I thought before [18:22] * penguin42 gave up on the series after about 3 or 4 episodes [18:23] seemed quite repetitive [18:25] penguin42: TV or game? [18:26] TV [18:26] I can imagine that becoming repetitive.. at least in the game you get to do things :) [18:28] MartijnVdS: The TV show seemed to basically be in three states; apparent peace, tenseness as impending zombies were expected, and killing zombies, with increasingly tenuous ways to get to stage 3 [18:29] well what did you expect with a zombie franchise ;) [18:31] I'm on a hangout anyone wants to join in ... https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_/c033c757d4bc0b6a6e5e5f334e26ad755859d87e?authuser=0&hl=en-US# === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte [19:54] * penguin42 hates to think why Amazon has just offered me a Borat Mankini Union jack style - having searched for xeyes in Unity [19:57] penguin42: darn! I to them to suggest a Donald Duck mankini be offered to you ;) [19:57] *told them to [20:00] SuperEngineer: Indeed, that one makes just no sense.... [20:00] ;) [20:03] anybody know of an easy to contorl a web cam? [20:03] ... [as in turn it off at start up rather than have it glaring its green light at me at startup] [20:03] * penguin42 is surprised it does that [20:03] * penguin42 thought they were reasonably careful to make them only do that when video was being captured [20:05] apparently not... furthermore - I'm not beautiful... you'd think it would turn itself off as self defense! [20:07] * SuperEngineer has already installed latest webcam security device... a folded piece of black cardboard to cover the lens] [20:10] Evening all [20:11] eveninks popey [20:14] \o [21:24] is having a reasonably odd day with recommendations; on Amazon's Betterizer it says if I say 'like' for Downtown Abbey, it'll recommend BBC's Coast 2 === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away [22:01] Is it only BT that does the up to 76mbit service, or are there any unbundling type things going on? [22:45] Azelphur: you mean specifically fibre to the cabinet and via the telephone line? There's Virgin 100 Mbit cable, as I imagine you know. [22:46] this appears relevant: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/06/02/bt_fibre_eu/ [22:48] yea, virgin isn't available in my area [22:50] fun, so yea it's BT or the highway :P [23:45] Azelphur: plus.net do the 76mbit [23:45] oh that's cool, are they any nicer than BT for it? [23:46] yeah, well it is BT that do the installation, but plusnet shout at them for you so you don't have to do it yourself [23:46] ouch, 250GB monthly caps [23:47] I wonder if Be will join the party. [23:47] I think there are quite a few people reselling BTs fibre [23:47] I don't get anywhere near 250GB [23:48] not that it helps here since BT still haven't done our box [23:48] AlanBell: Are you on fibre though? If not, would you use more if you were on a faster conneciton? [23:48] You can register interest in Be fibre here: https://www.bethere.co.uk/web/beportal/fibre [23:48] penguin42: yes, on FTTC, it goes faster than my wifi [23:48] however I do have an office as well with the same connection [23:49] AlanBell: last month I used 255 [23:49] I'd go over 250 if I wasn't careful, 250 is annoying. [23:50] AlanBell: any others reselling? [23:50] This month you've used [23:50] 66.91GB [23:50] * penguin42 thinks Sky do [23:51] oh that's cool, I could perhaps stay on my current sky contract [23:51] and sky are no FUP by principle [23:51] I can't see my usage, as it's unlimited, which is good in a way but it would be useful to know. [23:51] yea, they do, that's awesome [23:52] sky won't do a static IP address though [23:52] * hamitron likes demon internet [23:52] yea, that's fine I have dydns [23:52] the main thing I like is the no FUP [23:52] or I lost the will to live when trying to explain to sky what a static IP address was [23:53] AlanBell: haha [23:53] http://www.sky.com/shop/broadband-talk/fibre-optic/ hmm there's not a lot of info there [23:53] AlanBell: Be? [23:53] I mean have you considered using BeThere... [23:54] no, they didn't do it at the time, and switching is a pain [23:54] Azelphur: midnight to 8am is all you can eat and doesn't count to the 250GB usage [23:55] AlanBell: interesting, I would probably survive ok in that [23:57] hmm, Sky fibre is only 40mbit [23:58] what is the upload? [23:59] doesn't say \o/ [23:59] I get 15.6 mbit upload without plugging in to the wires
