| magespawn | this thing was left behind when they all got on the ark | 06:53 |
| Superhuman | Mondays are awesome, because all my enemies are miserable! | 06:53 |
| magespawn | lol @Superhuman | 06:53 |
| Kilos | aw , you got enemies Superhuman | 06:53 |
| Kilos | already | 06:53 |
| Squirm | lol magespawn | 06:54 |
| Superhuman | Kilos: "You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life." - Winston Churchill | 06:55 |
| Kilos | lol | 06:55 |
| magespawn | indeed, ut means that you taken a stand on something and did not budge | 06:56 |
| magespawn | s/ut/it | 06:58 |
| Superhuman | enemies(colleagues) keep you incheck, they are sometimes your best motivators, and biggest fans. | 06:59 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | morning peeps | 07:02 |
| Kilos | hi ThatGraemeGuy | 07:02 |
| Superhuman | morning | 07:02 |
| magespawn | this is the projector http://www.google.co.za/imgres?imgurl=http://party-verleih-koeln.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Sanyo-PLC-200-P-Video-Beamer.jpg&imgrefurl=http://party-verleih-koeln.de/product/sanyo-plc-200-video-beamer-grossbildprojektor/sanyo-plc-200-p-video-beamer/&h=480&w=640&sz=52&tbnid=Dc_bv-kdbzRRWM:&tbnh=88&tbnw=117&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dsanyo%2BPLC-200p%2Bpictures%26tbm%3Disch%26tbo%3Du&zoom=1&q=sanyo+PLC- | 07:03 |

| magespawn | sorry about the link | 07:04 |
| Kilos | whew magespawn use maaz to shorten that kinda link | 07:04 |
| magespawn | did not look to see how long it was | 07:04 |
| Kilos | it comes on xchat as 2 posts so can use it anyway | 07:04 |
| magespawn | hold on | 07:05 |
| Kilos | cannot | 07:05 |
| magespawn | http://is.gd/ZVOrVJ | 07:05 |
| Kilos | much better hey | 07:06 |
| Superhuman | Kilos: how do I tell Maaz to tinyurl it? | 07:06 |
| magespawn | indeed | 07:07 |
| Kilos | just maaz shorten | 07:07 |
| Kilos | magespawn, give that full link to QA lets she if she also splits it to 2 posts | 07:07 |
| magespawn | private chat then "Maaz shorten 'link to be shortened'" without the quotes | 07:08 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | that doesn't really help if the URL is too long to fit in a single message :P | 07:08 |
| magespawn | Kilos this is what QA gave me http://is.gd/ZVOrVJ | 07:09 |
| Kilos | if you pm or query maaz then he accepts whatever you post ThatGraemeGuy | 07:09 |
| magespawn | identical | 07:09 |
| * Superhuman still prefers goo.gl for urls shortening, since I can track views/stats on the url in my google account | 07:10 | |
| Kilos | no man i meant post the link in my channel, sorry | 07:10 |
| magespawn | okay | 07:10 |
| Kilos | i get kinda mixed up at times | 07:10 |
| magespawn | no worries | 07:10 |
| Kilos | oh its an irc thing | 07:11 |
| Kilos | freenode thing | 07:11 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | Kilos, that may be, but if the URL is too long, it's too long, whether its a privmsg or not | 07:11 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | think its 512 chars IIRC | 07:12 |
| Kilos | only allows 6 lines at a time | 07:12 |
| Superhuman | It avoids flooding in a channel | 07:12 |
| tonberryE352 | how on earth is a url that long? | 07:12 |
| Kilos | well at least the ibid bots shorten it ok | 07:12 |
| Superhuman | IRC used to be like wild west before that restriction came in | 07:12 |
| Kilos | yeah Superhuman they been working on upgrades to fix flooding etc | 07:13 |
| Superhuman | tonberryE352: I know, right? AFAIK, the RFC calls for a max length of 256 chars for all urls...naturally google doesn't listen. | 07:13 |
| Kilos | had many ddos attacks too | 07:13 |
| Kilos | havent had serious net splits for a while now | 07:14 |
| Kilos | hi tonberryE352 | 07:15 |
| Superhuman | In the old days (giving age away) with dialup, you could hang/flood a connection on irc with just 10 lines of text. Thus they capped one message to less than 10 lines | 07:15 |
| tonberryE352 | hi kilos | 07:15 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | uhm, Superhuman where do you see that 256-char limit? | 07:16 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | afaik its not specifically limited, but there's a de facto limit somewhere around 2,000 chars | 07:16 |
| Superhuman | can't seem to find it in the rfc. might be something to do with SEO limits then...my bad | 07:19 |
| * Superhuman just knows, long url = bad web development | 07:20 | |
| superfly | the RFC says URLS should be no longer than 8000 chars, but Apache cuts it off at 4000 | 07:21 |
| Kilos | but that one was really exceptionally long | 07:21 |
| Kilos | magespawn, if you got playtime see if imageshack or one one the other sites do a better job than google | 07:22 |
| Kilos | just for interests sake that is | 07:23 |
| magespawn | that was from a google search not an upload | 07:23 |
| Kilos | because maaz fixes it quite well | 07:23 |
| tonberryE352 | i have seen google embed thumbnails in urls | 07:23 |
| Kilos | ah | 07:23 |
| tonberryE352 | once pasted one of those in irc by mistake, server did not like me | 07:23 |
| Kilos | lol | 07:23 |
| magespawn | http://party-verleih-koeln.de/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Sanyo-PLC-200-P-Video-Beamer.jpg | 07:24 |
| magespawn | that is the original link | 07:24 |
| magespawn | page | 07:24 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | http://slexy.org/view/s20OPHDJ0t | 07:25 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | RFC does not impose a limit | 07:25 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | http://www.boutell.com/newfaq/misc/urllength.html | 07:25 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | IE has a limit of 2,083 chars, so that's your de facto limit due to market share | 07:26 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | interestingly, IIS' limit is 16,384 chars, despite the fact that IE would reject that length | 07:26 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | well done Microsoft | 07:26 |
| Kilos | ohi superfly | 07:27 |
| magespawn | morning superfly | 07:29 |
| superfly | hi Kilos, magespawn | 07:29 |
| magespawn | ThatGraemeGuy: did you find your problem | 07:29 |
| Kilos | watch the pro complain about long scroll back | 07:29 |
| magespawn | ? | 07:29 |
| Kilos | oh ya the server prob? | 07:29 |
| magespawn | when he eventually gets here | 07:29 |
| Kilos | he is most likely lurking | 07:30 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | i haven't looked at it yet, it isn't terribly urgent | 07:30 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | our dns servers are pretty much never down, so we just need to patch them after hours until i figure it out | 07:30 |
| magespawn | does anyone know if e-tolling is on? i thought they were already going ahead with that. | 07:32 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | where? | 07:33 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | http://www.iol.co.za/news/south-africa/western-cape/cape-town-tolls-different-says-sanral-1.1499070#.UWe5AWYqskc | 07:35 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | Gauteng starting in 2 months, CT still being opposed by City of Cape Town | 07:35 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | and they want to put toll plazas in CT apparently | 07:35 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | ew | 07:35 |
| magespawn | looks like the trade unions are getting involved in gauteng | 07:47 |
| Kilos | hi Jabberwocky psyatw Vince-0 | 08:00 |
| Vince-0 | Haai | 08:01 |
| Vince-0 | always quick on the draw there Kilos | 08:01 |
| Kilos | only when im here | 08:01 |
| Kilos | hehe | 08:01 |
| psyatw | hi Kilos | 08:01 |
| psyatw | hi Vince-0 | 08:01 |
| magespawn | just got a pentium 3 up and running with DSL, was getting some horrible colours, so i put in an old graphics card, and hey presto everything works | 08:06 |
| magespawn | so win 98 that was on there | 08:06 |
| magespawn | much^ | 08:06 |
| magespawn | that should read 'so much for win 98 that was on there' | 08:07 |
| psyatw | hello magespawn | 08:07 |
| magespawn | hey psyatw | 08:07 |
| magespawn | hey Vince-0 | 08:07 |
| Kilos | them p3's actually went wel with 98 | 08:08 |
| magespawn | i think this one has problem on the hard drive | 08:08 |
| Kilos | whats it doing? | 08:09 |
| Kilos | i actually started with ubuntu on a p3 | 08:10 |
| magespawn | just does not boot, disk boot failure please insert boot disk and press enter to continue | 08:10 |
| Kilos | just boot from cd and do fdisk /mby then reinstall | 08:11 |
| Kilos | fix /mbr | 08:11 |
| magespawn | next two things to check. the add on network card and see if the bios support usb boot | 08:11 |
| Kilos | it wont i think | 08:11 |
| Kilos | but went up to 10.10 on the p3 | 08:12 |
| magespawn | probable not | 08:12 |
| Kilos | usbs you had to add in a card and install the drivers for winsucks | 08:13 |
| Kilos | but ubuntu saw it straight off | 08:13 |
| magespawn | indeed but if the bios has not got usb boot support then it is no go anyway | 08:13 |
| magespawn | dsl sees the usb ports | 08:14 |
| Kilos | no but it can then see a usb mouse | 08:15 |
| Kilos | hehe | 08:15 |
| Kilos | ubuntu didnt like the old mouse | 08:15 |
| Kilos | what you wanna do with a p3 | 08:15 |
| Kilos | server | 08:16 |
| magespawn | maybe | 08:19 |
| magespawn | or something for the kids | 08:19 |
| Kilos | ah | 08:20 |
| magespawn | looks like it will run ubuntu server without too much sweat | 08:21 |
| Kilos | i spent many months with red alert on a p3 and 98 | 08:21 |
| Kilos | yeah server will work well | 08:21 |
| inetpro | good morning | 09:24 |
| inetpro | is it Friday yet? | 09:24 |
| magespawn | indeed, good morning | 09:24 |
| Kilos | morning inetpro | 09:24 |
| inetpro | Kilos: ai! | 09:25 |
| inetpro | jy praat te veel nonsens | 09:25 |
| Kilos | ai! me again | 09:25 |
| inetpro | Kilos: hoe verwag jy moet ek alles lees? | 09:25 |
| Kilos | rofl | 09:25 |
| psyatw | hi inetpro | 09:26 |
| psyatw | good morning | 09:26 |
| Kilos | met moeite | 09:26 |
| inetpro | psyatw: hi | 09:26 |
| magespawn | Kilos: the p3 has a 20gig drive and it looks okay | 09:26 |
| Kilos | magespawn, told you | 09:26 |
| magespawn | hah lol | 09:26 |
| inetpro | ThatGraemeGuy: you posted some interesting limits there, thanks | 09:26 |
| magespawn | inetpro: you getting predictable | 09:27 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | :) | 09:27 |
| * inetpro always thought there was a limit of 256 characters | 09:27 | |
| inetpro | but recently google has really gone overboard | 09:27 |
| Kilos | magespawn, i still dunno what a server actually must do but if 20g is big enough then yay | 09:27 |
| Kilos | oh my he actually thought!! | 09:28 |
| inetpro | Kilos: eish! | 09:28 |
| Kilos | musta hurt some | 09:28 |
| inetpro | some times | 09:28 |
| magespawn | easily, requirement is 1gig | 09:28 |
| Kilos | lol skuus man | 09:28 |
| Kilos | no magespawn i mean whether it needs space to actually do what it is supposed to | 09:29 |
| magespawn | that depends on what you want/need | 09:29 |
| Kilos | thats what i dunno | 09:29 |
| Kilos | like is it sposed to store stuff for later use etc | 09:30 |
| magespawn | well for me i will use it as a file server, dhcp and dns for my home network | 09:30 |
| magespawn | i will use my external drives for the actual storage | 09:30 |
| Kilos | ah | 09:31 |
| magespawn | then the kids can play on the xp machine where all the games are | 09:31 |
| Kilos | ya thats better | 09:31 |
| Kilos | ians stupid pc has started rebooting on its own whenever i try make it do something | 09:32 |
| Kilos | so its more than the psu | 09:33 |
| Kilos | sigh | 09:33 |
| Kilos | it has new ddr2 ram so methinks that leaves cpu and bios right? | 09:33 |
| magespawn | or something on the board | 09:34 |
| Kilos | oh you mean imbedded stuff | 09:34 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | unlikely bios, as it does pretty much nothing after the boot process starts | 09:34 |
| ThatGraemeGuy | maybe cpu overheating? | 09:34 |
| Kilos | it reboots before it has time to get hot even | 09:35 |
| Kilos | maybe i must try them temp tools | 09:35 |
| magespawn | does it do it if you are in the bios? | 09:37 |
| Kilos | a coupla times when trying to do all the settings in the bios it did restart on its own yes | 09:38 |
| Kilos | struggled to get to saving boot prefs etc | 09:38 |
| magespawn | did you flash it? | 09:39 |
| Kilos | nope. cant fit flash and update stuff onna floppy and not sure of how to use flashrom in ubuntu properly | 09:40 |
| Kilos | has a terrible man page | 09:40 |
| Kilos | i installed kde here and then took the drive there and it boots fine | 09:41 |
| Kilos | are 2.8m floppies bought like that or do you format it like that some other way | 09:41 |
| Kilos | lets hear what the twits say i did wrong today | 09:46 |
| magespawn | AFAIK you can format them to change the file structure but not the density, but that has been long ago | 09:46 |
| * Squirm yawns | 09:47 | |
| Kilos | in xp you can compress a 1.4m floppy but you need the 98 bootable thing to do bios | 09:47 |
| Kilos | ai! Squirm tired again | 09:47 |
| Kilos | still | 09:47 |
| Squirm | still | 09:47 |
| Squirm | my boss is out | 09:48 |
| Squirm | maybe I should go and take a nap | 09:48 |
| Squirm | :P | 09:48 |
| Kilos | ai! | 09:51 |
| Kilos | twits=tweet peeps | 09:52 |
| Kilos | normally the pro says you got it wrong | 09:52 |
| magespawn | Squirm: not enough sleep? | 09:53 |

| tonberryE352 | 2% loss give or take | 13:01 |
| tonberryE352 | I've had worse | 13:01 |
| inetpro | http://mybroadband.co.za/ working now | 13:02 |
| inetpro | and so is http://www.hetzner.co.za/ | 13:02 |
| inetpro | uh... | 13:03 |
| inetpro | not anymore | 13:03 |
| Squirm | both working for me | 13:03 |
| Squirm | mweb | 13:03 |
| inetpro | ok, let me rather stay out of it and let the relevant people look into it | 13:04 |
| * inetpro has no need for those sites right now | 13:04 | |
| inetpro | but clearly something is not lekker | 13:05 |
| Squirm | http://9gag.com/gag/7057247 Minecraft structures | 13:05 |
| magespawn | http://9gag.com/gag/7068485?ref=popular check out the suspended baby cage | 13:29 |
| Squirm | yeah, I saw that | 13:32 |
| magespawn | that is what people came up wtih before lawsuits | 13:33 |
| magespawn | for that apartment where you just have to have that extra space | 13:34 |
| Kilos | hi Cantide | 14:11 |
| Cantide | hello '-' | 14:11 |
| Cantide | hmm | 14:12 |
| Cantide | what to do now >.< | 14:12 |
| Cantide | i have been pimping my CV lately | 14:13 |
| Kilos | now hope someone bites | 14:16 |
| Cantide | well, i haven't applied for anything yet | 14:17 |
| Cantide | graduation is still about 6 weeks away | 14:17 |
| magespawn | maybe put it online somewhere | 14:17 |
| Cantide | and i need the certificate for the jobs i want | 14:17 |
| magespawn | what did you study? | 14:17 |
| Cantide | a general BA with majors in English and linguistics | 14:17 |
| magespawn | ahh right that is why the classic reading | 14:18 |
| Cantide | yup | 14:19 |
| Cantide | was planning to move to Korea | 14:19 |
| Cantide | but right now things aren't looking too hot | 14:19 |
| magespawn | maybe not such a good idea for now | 14:19 |
| Cantide | so just waiting for graduation while i prepare some things | 14:19 |
| Cantide | and i will decide then | 14:19 |
| Cantide | yeah, i still think North Korea is all bark and no bite | 14:20 |
| magespawn | why Korea? | 14:20 |
| Cantide | that's a very long story | 14:20 |
| magespawn | ahh okay | 14:20 |
| Cantide | :p | 14:20 |
| superfly | magespawn: cause Cantide thought the Korean chicks were hot... but no longer | 14:20 |
| Cantide | 안녕하세요 '-' | 14:20 |
| Cantide | superfly, hahaha | 14:20 |
| superfly | I think it had something to do with Gangnam Style | 14:20 |
| Cantide | naah :p | 14:20 |
| Cantide | i got involved with Koreans around 2006 | 14:21 |
| magespawn | it is not a usual place for south africans to think of moving to | 14:22 |
| Cantide | hmm | 14:22 |
| magespawn | assuming you are south african | 14:22 |
| Cantide | i think there are quite a few South Africans there | 14:22 |
| Cantide | I am :p | 14:22 |
| Cantide | it's either there or Japan | 14:22 |
| magespawn | i thought most expats from here went to place like oz | 14:23 |
| Cantide | ah | 14:24 |
| Cantide | fair enough | 14:24 |
| Cantide | there are a lot more South Africans in the UK and Australasia | 14:24 |
| Cantide | but Korea and Japan offer good jobs, high salaries and all sorts of other perks | 14:24 |
| Cantide | and they're not western countries | 14:24 |
| magespawn | culturally it would be a slight change | 14:25 |
| Squirm | hometime | 14:25 |
| Cantide | i suppose so | 14:25 |
| Cantide | but for me it won't be tough | 14:25 |
| magespawn | something some people struggle with | 14:25 |
| Cantide | i have plenty of friends there, can read and write the language, have eaten the food for several years | 14:25 |
| Cantide | ex girlfriend was Korean >_> | 14:26 |
| magespawn | ahh | 14:26 |
| Cantide | <_< | 14:26 |
| Cantide | so yeah, this tension at the moment doesn't deter me much | 14:27 |
| Cantide | but i think it's a good idea to wait a few months | 14:27 |
| Cantide | i have to wait for graduation anyway | 14:27 |
| Kilos | hehe | 14:27 |
| Cantide | hopefully there is decent Ubuntu activity there :) | 14:27 |
| Cantide | i might have to start something if there isn't | 14:28 |
| magespawn | well if not maybe we will have to come and visit | 14:28 |
| Cantide | :) | 14:28 |
| Cantide | my job should provide accommodation | 14:28 |
| Cantide | so you will be guaranteed a spot on the floor at least :p | 14:29 |
| magespawn | cool | 14:29 |
| Cantide | failing that i have a friend that rents out an apartment in Seoul :p | 14:30 |
| Cantide | i paid something like R 700 for 3 weeks last time :) | 14:30 |
| Cantide | assuming Seoul is still there next month =_= | 14:32 |
| magespawn | for the apartment rental? | 14:38 |
| Kilos | so Squirm did you work out how to get maaz to announce at a later time? | 14:48 |
| Kilos | dont think he does the at command does he | 14:48 |
| Kilos | Maaz: at 20.00 | 14:48 |
| Maaz | Kilos: Huh? | 14:48 |
| Kilos | hmm... | 14:49 |
| Kilos | maybe tumbleweed can tell us | 14:50 |
| magespawn | later all home time. | 14:53 |
| Cantide | yeah, for the apartment rental from my friend '-' | 14:55 |
| Cantide | see ya~ | 14:55 |
| nuvolari | o/ | 15:32 |
| nuvolari | home time | 15:32 |
| Cantide | \o | 15:33 |
| Kilos | guten abend. im so happy telkom didnt drop the 2+1 | 16:33 |
| Cantide | heh :) | 16:33 |
| Cantide | i bought the 60 + 60 in fear of them dropping it | 16:34 |
| Kilos | woulda been bad paying R20 more for only 1g | 16:34 |
| Cantide | yeah | 16:35 |
| Kilos | inetpro: the monkey says see us here monday if not sooner | 16:47 |
| Cantide | 19:30 as usual?? | 16:48 |
| Cantide | that will become 02:30 for me once i move T-Tv | 16:48 |
| Kilos | eek | 16:53 |
| Kilos | bad move | 16:53 |
| Cantide | chances are i won't be able to attend | 16:54 |
| Kilos | yeah you'll have to read minutes next day | 16:55 |
| Cantide | ㅠㅠ | 16:56 |
| Kilos | i wonder what games they playing in korea | 17:05 |
| Cantide | heh | 17:05 |
| Cantide | I hope nothing happens | 17:05 |
| Kilos | what they want such long distance missiles for | 17:05 |
| Cantide | but they may launch a missile soon | 17:05 |
| Cantide | to attack America | 17:05 |
| Cantide | but they're not that stupid - America will crush them | 17:06 |
| Cantide | brb! | 17:06 |
| Kilos | then they will be thumped like sadam | 17:06 |
| Kilos | hi smile4ever | 17:36 |
| smile4ever | hi Kilos :D | 17:56 |
| smile4ever | good night | 18:33 |
| smile4ever | :) | 18:33 |
| Kilos | night smile4ever | 18:34 |
| Kilos | sleep tight | 18:34 |
| Cantide | good night :) | 18:34 |
| Kilos | inetpro: are you here? | 19:05 |
| Kilos | just need some guidance please | 19:05 |
| inetpro | ho Kilos | 19:05 |
| Kilos | with wget | 19:05 |
| inetpro | sup? | 19:05 |
| Kilos | http://sourceforge.net/projects/systemrescuecd/ | 19:06 |
| Kilos | do i right click where it says download and copy link address and use that with wget? | 19:06 |
| * inetpro not knows | 19:06 | |
| Kilos | ai! | 19:07 |
| inetpro | http://www.sysresccd.org/SystemRescueCd_Homepage | 19:07 |
| Kilos | im bang to download with a browser on the wonderful internet we got at the moment | 19:07 |
| inetpro | what you wanna do with that? | 19:07 |
| Kilos | use that cd to flash the bios on ians pc | 19:08 |
| inetpro | ai! | 19:08 |
| inetpro | will it work? | 19:08 |
| Kilos | flashrom should be on it | 19:08 |
| Kilos | i dont see any other option. i put another psu in and it rebooted while in bios a few times before i got it setup and saved | 19:09 |
| inetpro | flashrom is also available on ubuntu, not? | 19:09 |
| Kilos | now with kde on there it reboots now and again when i try do stuff | 19:09 |
| inetpro | aptitude show flashrom | 19:10 |
| Kilos | yes it is but when i try start it there the pc reboots | 19:10 |
| * inetpro is the wrong person to ask on this | 19:10 | |
| inetpro | haven't played with flashrom or any such drastic tools | 19:11 |
| Kilos | thats why i wanted to know the wget addy for the iso | 19:11 |
| inetpro | so you better do your homework first | 19:11 |
| Cantide | good night '-'/ | 19:11 |
| inetpro | but Kilos, flashrom is just one very small part of sysresccd | 19:11 |
| inetpro | SystemRescueCd* | 19:12 |
| Kilos | ya but i was hoping that at least i can do things without it rebooting all the time | 19:12 |
| Kilos | i booted from 12.04 and installed unity alongside kde with no prob | 19:13 |
| inetpro | today? | 19:13 |
| Kilos | so was hoping the cd route would let me at least sort the bios | 19:13 |
| Kilos | yesterday | 19:14 |
| inetpro | but IIRC you said earlier today that even when you're in the bios that it reboots itself | 19:14 |
| inetpro | so how can it not reboot during installation? | 19:15 |
| Kilos | yip it kept doing that till i eventually got the settings saved now it boots to the drive | 19:15 |
| inetpro | ai! | 19:15 |
| Kilos | very sick pc that | 19:15 |
| inetpro | start with http://www.sysresccd.org/ | 19:17 |
| inetpro | that is the homepage | 19:17 |
| Kilos | lol or tell me where to get a 2.8m floppy | 19:17 |
| inetpro | nee man | 19:17 |
| Kilos | the home page wants payment | 19:17 |
| Kilos | the floppy route would really be the easiest because you only have the flash tool and update firmware on it | 19:18 |
| inetpro | sorry Kilos but I really can't help you here | 19:19 |
| Kilos | flashrom in ubuntu is for serious geek types | 19:19 |
| Kilos | hehe | 19:19 |
| Kilos | np boetie ill get there sometime | 19:19 |
| Kilos | danke | 19:19 |
| inetpro | at least not tonight | 19:19 |
| Kilos | no worries man | 19:20 |
| Kilos | i got the rest of my life | 19:20 |
| inetpro | sal jou nou van die wal af in die sloot in help | 19:20 |
| Kilos | lol | 19:20 |
| * inetpro is moeg en moet nog gou iets klaarmaak voor gaan slaap | 19:21 | |
| Kilos | it even has a man page | 19:21 |
| Kilos | geen prob inetpro | 19:21 |
| Kilos | die ding is al maande hier en ek sien jy kan die bios chip bestel so ja | 19:22 |
| Kilos | dis ook my slaap tyd | 19:22 |
| Kilos | night all. sleep tight | 19:35 |
