[01:38] <ali1234> aaaaaaargh something on my desk is making low battery sounds and i have no idea what it is
[02:15] <Azelphur> ali1234: man, bitcoin just trolled the hell out of me
[02:15] <Azelphur> that was terrifying xD
[02:15] <ali1234> oh? bear trap?
[02:15] <Azelphur> ali1234: price tanked from £30 to £22
[02:16] <Azelphur> ...right after I just bought £6000 worth
[02:16] <ali1234> hmm... is it time for me to buy back then?
[02:16] <Azelphur> nah you missed the ship really, back up at £27
[02:16] <Azelphur> (this all in the space of a couple hours)
[02:16] <ali1234> hmm :/
[02:16] <ali1234> yeah... its crazy
[02:16] <ali1234> i don't really pay attention to GBP price
[02:16] <ali1234> only USD
[02:17] <Azelphur> ali1234: doesn't matter which you follow really, everything follows USD because of arb bots.
[02:17] <ali1234> but yeah... sounds like classic bear trap
[02:17] <Azelphur> ali1234: this has certainly been one of the most interesting days so far I've had in bitcoin
[02:17] <Azelphur> that massive bounce
[02:17] <ali1234> true... i follow usd because it's usually in front
[02:17] <Azelphur> and my first cash in person tx
[02:17] <ali1234> then i have time to react on secondary currency
[02:17] <Azelphur> https://www.dropbox.com/s/l5uf0lr0udcjel5/2013-03-06%2015.48.16.jpg giving this to some random guy from the internet was fun
[03:35] <ali1234> Azelphur:  that's quite a wedge
[03:35] <Azelphur> indeed
[03:35] <ali1234> interesting times, i guess
[03:36] <Azelphur> for sure
[03:36] <ali1234> you still operating the GPU farm?
[03:36] <Azelphur> nah shut down ages ago
[03:37] <ali1234> i would be tempted to hit those alt chains...
[03:37] <ali1234> i only ever had the one 5870...
[03:38] <Azelphur> :)
[03:40] <ali1234> pretty much everyone i talk to on the internet has some bitcoins by now
[03:40] <ali1234> and that's basically what i do all day every day
[03:41] <ali1234> so i'd say stage 1: early adopters is a success
[03:41] <Azelphur> :D
[08:35] <jacobw> Morning
[09:00] <BigRedS> Good Morning!
[09:04] <jacobw> Hey BigRedS, how does it go?
[09:09] <Laney> pew
[09:19] <BigRedS> Barney McGrew?
[09:19] <BigRedS> jacobw: not bad! You?
[09:20] <jacobw> Also not bad :)
[09:20] <jacobw> Too much IRC, too little work
[09:20] <BigRedS> I've got no audio on this PC which is really nice since it stops empathy badgering me, but really annoying 'cause I keep missing IMs...
[09:20] <JamesTait> Good morning all! :-D
[09:21] <JamesTait> (Cuthbert, Dibble Grub?)
[09:23] <jacobw> Morning
[09:30] <BigRedS> jacobw: yes!

[09:43] <shauno> hah, yes!  someone else who's cursed with a yankee keyboard
[09:46] <MartijnVdS> shauno: cursed? Blessed!
[09:52] <dutchie> how can i remove windows from grub? exams coming up, need more than self-motivation to stay off games
[09:52] <MartijnVdS> dutchie: stop rebooting
[09:52] <dutchie> well there is that
[09:53] <dutchie> but y'know
[09:57] <directhex> dutchie, grub.cfg gets autogenerated
[09:58] <directhex> dutchie, you could erase /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober and run update-grub
[09:58] <SuperMatt> dammit ubuntu.com, why can't I find an iso for 12.04? I don't want 12.04.2 :(
[09:59] <dutchie> directhex: yeah, i just chmod -x'ed it
[09:59] <dutchie> thanks
[10:01] <Laney> SuperMatt: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04/
[10:01]  * Laney refrains from asking why
[10:01] <SuperMatt> thanks!
[10:01] <SuperMatt> well, because I'm trying to replicate the way a server was installed
[10:36] <popey> redtape-renegade: wut?
[10:50] <MartijnVdS> Googly Eyes! :) https://plus.google.com/100189567362844794281/posts/T7e92hNN3H8
[10:57] <popey> :D
[11:00] <redtape-renegade> popey : got it .. http://t.co/b0XAUQie1Q
[11:01] <popey> ahh, Thomas Vo§ or however you do that S thing
[11:02] <brobostigon> good morning everyone,
[11:03] <Laney> ß ß ß
[11:04] <BigRedS> that's the most pleased looking kettle I've seen in a long time
[11:05] <redtape-renegade> Morning brobostigon ..
[11:05] <brobostigon> morning redtape-renegade
[11:06] <redtape-renegade> Qu.1 of  7609 : What did everyone think of the UDS ??
[11:23] <popey> b+ could do better
[12:02] <redtape-renegade> Seems legit  ... http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/coolship-an-android-desktop-computer-that-looks-like-a-keyboard
[12:18] <BigRedS> why would I want an Android PC?
[12:18] <BigRedS> Oh, the subtitle of that page makes it pretty clear who might want it
[12:20] <SuperMatt> people who want to play android games
[12:22] <DJones> I like that it describes it as "a hardware upgradeable android desktop computer" Can't be much you could upgrade in it
[12:22] <shauno> I thought these things were almost entire SOC
[12:23] <mgdm> maybe it will have RAM ports or something
[12:24] <shauno> unless they're using something like these "thumbstick mini-pcs" and the actually keyboard/chassis is a glorified peripheral
[12:29] <bigcalm_laptop> Ello peeps :)
[12:36] <bigcalm_laptop> MOT while I wait. Working while I wait. Laptops and 3g are a bad thing
[12:50] <MartijnVdS> bigcalm_laptop: this is why MiFi-like devices were invented ;)
[12:52] <bigcalm_laptop> MartijnVdS: I meant that with a combination of laptop and 3g, I'm working from the MOT centre when I could be relaxing instead.
[12:54] <MartijnVdS> bigcalm_laptop: Online games can be relaxing
[16:28] <candygirl> hey
[16:54] <ahayzen> 'With the unified look and feel of the user interface and core applications, Xperia Z and Xperia Tablet Z are the perfect pair.'...somehow sounds familiar ;)
[17:02] <mungbean> or the palm pre and hp touchpad
[17:02] <mungbean> they even had some fancy idea where you pressed the phone agains thte tablet and it did funky stuff
[17:12] <directhex> nfc, before nfc was a thing
[17:16] <shauno> palm had nfc back when nfc meant something quite inappropriate :/
[17:18] <directhex> i had a touchpad/pre3 combo, with the touch feature
[17:18] <directhex> one of, what, 10 people
[17:21] <shauno> I had a palm tungsten something, back when screens were squishy and resistive.  it turned me off smartphones for a long time
[17:56] <MartijnVdS> I had one as well
[17:57] <MartijnVdS> It crashed/full reset on me while I was on vacation in Berlin.. which kind of sucked
[22:22] <sebsebseb> Nice this girl I like, showed her some videos of Ubuntu 12.10 just now,  she said it looked neat and such
[22:22] <sebsebseb> so trying to get her to run the onilne demo
