inetprocinemas cost way to much these days10:44
* inetpro wishing everyone a Blessed and a Happy New Year!10:45
superflyinetpro: pong11:21
superflyinetpro: i thought so, but then I know the people who made it11:22
superflyinetpro: it is a good story, the music is great, the animation not bad (though it is not a Pixar), and the dialogue is entertaining and quite African despite the US voice actors11:28
Squirmoh yeah11:28
Squirmhappy new year11:28
Squirm:)11:28
superflySquirm: you gonna try sobering up a bit this year?11:29

* Squirm keeps quiet from now on11:39
Kiloshehe11:40
superflyheh Squirm just don't mention it so often :-P 11:40

inetprowith only one eye I also can't watch this stupid 3d stuff 11:58
superflyinetpro: one eye?12:00
* inetpro been a one eyed bandid for ever12:03
inetprodon't know what it's like to see with two eyes12:03
inetprooh and there are thousands of others in the same boat12:05
superflyinetpro: wow, I didn't know that12:05
superfly*bandit12:05
inetprothat's why I think the whole idea of a 3d movie/tv is just plain stupid12:06
inetprosuperfly: yes bandit, sorry :-)12:08
inetprosuperfly: I only realised that I was blind at 5 years12:09
inetprosuperfly: that was when my dad tried to teach me to aim with only one eye with a pellet gun12:11
superflyah,ok12:12
inetproI think it was a bigger shock for him than for me at that stage12:12
Kiloswb magespawn 12:13

Kilosevery second one17:31
kbmonkeydid you have a nice xmas, Kilos ?17:32
Kilosnice and quiet ty kbmonkey  and you lad?17:37

Kiloslol17:39
Kilosive actually never been one that celebrates the new year because its just another day17:39
kbmonkeyI installed xubuntu-desktop from ubuntu 11.04, and now i see its not supported :/17:40
Kilosaw that sucks17:40
kbmonkeyso now i guess i'll have to install the new one17:41
Kilosno man17:41
Kilos10.10 just lost support 6 months ago17:41
Kilosoh ya thats 6 months to 11.0417:41
Kilosim still running maverick on old pc17:42
kbmonkeyi have 12.10 here :)17:42
Kilosinstalled after support stopped17:42
kbmonkeyI wonder if I can use aptonCD and use the packages in the new release17:42
Kilosdidnt work on 12.0417:43
Kilosi used to make aptoncds all the time17:43
kbmonkeythanks :)17:43
Kiloson 12.04 you have to open it and install packages independantly with gdebi17:44
Kilos10.10 opened the cd with synaptic and installed everything for you17:44
kbmonkeyi can give it a try, but murphey says the 11.04 packages might conflict with the 12.10 repos17:48
kbmonkeydid father xmas bring you any nice toys, Kilos ? :]17:48
Kilosya they will17:48
Kiloswe had a lekker meal or 317:49

Kiloshey kbmonkey you still gotta 17:50
Kilosum17:50
Kiloser17:50
Kiloswrite some debugging script for the greeter hey17:50
kbmonkeyI don't have ibid or an ubuntu system at the moment to do that. not sure what a debugging script is, I assume it means including trace/debug output within the bot script.17:52
Kiloshehe i suppose so17:53
kbmonkeyany particular places within the bot we need debugging?17:53
Kilosit only greeted once then gave up17:53
kbmonkeysounds like it's idle timeout gets reset when we don't need it to17:54
kbmonkeyperhaps some of the join/part events are not being filtered properly17:55
Kiloseven if no one says anything all day on the channel it doesnt greet even new peeps17:55
Kilosand i had to get her a new nick. someone stole QP and grouped it to their nick17:57
kbmonkeyawe17:59
Kilosya the swine18:00
Kilosnew ones nick is QA and its registered with freenode with their bot registry18:01
Kilosive learned18:01
Trixar_zaThey have a bot registry?18:01

kbmonkeywould it be a bad thing to rather keep the machine on 11.04? it wont receive any new security updates tho :/18:08
Kilosthen once installed you can decide if you got data to upgrade18:08
Kilosi didnt like 11.0418:08
