Kilos | hi psyatw Trixar_za | 14:15 |
Trixar_za | Hey Kilos | 14:16 |
Kilos | what do you know about floppies | 14:16 |
Kilos | is there such a thing as a 2.88m floppy or is it a 1.4m formatted that way | 14:16 |
Kilos | i find nothing about 2.88m floppies with google | 14:18 |
psyatw | hi Kilos | 14:20 |
psyatw | hi Trixar_za | 14:20 |
Trixar_za | Hey psyatw | 14:21 |
Squirm | Kilos: I've only heard of 1.4mb | 14:28 |
Kilos | yeah me too but in bios you can choose 2.88m as well. does bios control the size? | 14:29 |
Squirm | no | 14:29 |
Squirm | it'll be the disk itself | 14:29 |
Squirm | maybe it's a similar concept to cds and dvds. same physical size, different way of burning the data to them | 14:30 |
Kilos | ai! one of them will sort all my bios flashing probs | 14:30 |
Squirm | anyway, I have to go now | 14:30 |
Kilos | go safe | 14:30 |
Squirm | chat later | 14:30 |
Kilos | ty | 14:30 |
Squirm | *gone | 14:30 |
Kilos | yo Cantide | 14:32 |
Cantide | hello :p | 14:32 |
Cantide | just cycled 8 km | 14:32 |
Cantide | i am unfit :< | 14:32 |
Kilos | hehe | 14:41 |
Kilos | at least you made 8 ks | 14:42 |
Cantide | :p | 14:42 |
Cantide | should make 15 easily | 14:42 |
Kilos | hi Mezenir Vince-0 | 15:01 |
Vince-0 | heyo | 15:02 |
Cantide | hey-0 | 15:04 |
charl | hi Cantide | 15:12 |
charl | hi Kilos | 15:12 |
Cantide | hi :) | 15:12 |
charl | did you see psy's new music video? | 15:13 |
Kilos | hi charl | 15:13 |
charl | i don't know what to make of it, it's catchy but i don't like the "abuse" in it | 15:13 |
Kilos | nope dont look at vids they eat data | 15:13 |
charl | yeah it's a problem if you don't have internet | 15:13 |
charl | was wondering what cantide thought though, considering it's going korea :) | 15:14 |
charl | *he's sorry :) | 15:14 |
charl | talking about people on irc as "it" is not so good :D | 15:14 |
Cantide | i don't classify that as abuse though | 15:14 |
Cantide | more like practical jokes | 15:14 |
charl | yeah | 15:14 |
Cantide | but yeah, it's not really good | 15:14 |
charl | but i mean for him to try and repeat his previous success would be impractical | 15:15 |
charl | something like gangnam style you only do once | 15:15 |
Cantide | yeah, because nothing will live up to it | 15:15 |
charl | exactly | 15:15 |
Cantide | he's just riding the gravy train :p | 15:15 |
charl | you shouldn't even try | 15:15 |
charl | lol precisely | 15:15 |
charl | i'm busy watching the 6-part bbc "africa" documentary | 15:15 |
Cantide | eh | 15:15 |
Cantide | the BBC were undercover in North Korea 2 weeks ago | 15:16 |
Cantide | posing as students | 15:16 |
Cantide | i want to see that when it's released :D | 15:16 |
charl | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Africa_(TV_series) | 15:16 |
charl | oh yes certainly | 15:16 |
charl | i want to see it as well | 15:16 |
Cantide | the monkey in the picture looks like he's wearing a red tie :) | 15:17 |
charl | yup exactly | 15:17 |
Mezenir | hey kilos :) | 15:17 |
charl | funny enough i thought the same thing subconciously :) | 15:17 |
charl | hi Mezenir | 15:18 |
Mezenir | hi charl | 15:18 |
Cantide | charl, what's your take on this whole North Korea "crisis" at the moment? | 15:19 |
charl | i think it's a big blown up thing personally | 15:19 |
Cantide | it is | 15:20 |
charl | especially because america seems to have provoked it | 15:20 |
Cantide | and i think the media is fueling it | 15:20 |
charl | yes | 15:20 |
Cantide | but ultimately i can't see a war starting | 15:20 |
Cantide | it's in no one's interest, especially not North Korea's | 15:20 |
charl | yeah they will be flattened | 15:21 |
Cantide | so my plans are still on, unless something drastic happens soon | 15:22 |
charl | how can the small north korea take on south korea, america, japan and everyone else | 15:22 |
Cantide | haha | 15:22 |
Cantide | yeah | 15:22 |
Cantide | exactly | 15:22 |
charl | even russia seems to be siding with america on this one | 15:22 |
Cantide | and they barely have enough food and fuel | 15:22 |
Cantide | if the war lasts anything longer than 3 days, which it will, North Korea will be forced to surrender | 15:22 |
Cantide | the only worry is China | 15:22 |
Cantide | but they don't want a war | 15:22 |
charl | well, not right now | 15:23 |
charl | i don't trust china but they have made no signal of open hostility towards anyone at this point | 15:23 |
Cantide | yes | 15:23 |
Cantide | but why are they still supporting NK via aid? | 15:24 |
charl | it's an old communist bond i think | 15:24 |
Cantide | they could cut off supply unless NK abandon their insanity | 15:24 |
Cantide | probably that | 15:24 |
charl | we should not forget where modern china came out of | 15:24 |
Cantide | also, i think if things got really bad, China would have 20 million refugees to handle | 15:24 |
charl | there's a theory that america is trying to drive a wedge between north korea and china with this nonsense that they provoked | 15:25 |
charl | i get the impression that america is behind most of the BS | 15:25 |
charl | and north korea seems to be "falling" for it perfectly and playing into their hands | 15:25 |
charl | maybe america wants to use this as an excuse to put more forces and arms in the area, perhaps as a measure against other (real) threats | 15:26 |
charl | you can carry on speculating | 15:26 |
Cantide | lol | 15:26 |
Cantide | those are some good speculations though | 15:26 |
charl | well america have decided to put a smaller missile defence installation in eastern europe and increase their defenses in alaska instead | 15:27 |
Cantide | still, i wish they would just wipe out the North Korean government / military, liberate the people and then work towards reunification | 15:27 |
charl | i wonder if they are scared of china/russia, but it's hard to see it on the front | 15:27 |
Cantide | they very well could be | 15:27 |
Cantide | still, i think the world has moved on after WW2 | 15:28 |
Cantide | it's all about resources now | 15:28 |
charl | perhaps, china and japan had a military show-off about some territories that are high in oil | 15:28 |
Cantide | yeah | 15:28 |
Cantide | and they use those islands as a facade for their true purpose | 15:29 |
Cantide | 'o' | 15:30 |
charl | it's a blurry mess if you look at it, but i get the impression that these "conflicts" are an excuse for governments to keep pushing money into military resources | 15:30 |
Cantide | and that | 15:30 |
charl | and look at the debt that is being racked up by it | 15:30 |
Cantide | well, having a strong military is a useful thing | 15:30 |
charl | that debt has to be payed sooner or later | 15:30 |
charl | eventually the whole world belongs to the IMF | 15:30 |
Cantide | :D | 15:30 |
charl | bsh i dunno, i try not to overthink these things :P we'll see where it goes regardless | 15:31 |
charl | *bah | 15:31 |
Cantide | South Africa is relatively neutral | 15:31 |
Cantide | but moving to Asia might put me in harm's way | 15:32 |
charl | in south africa the conflict seems to be internal | 15:32 |
Cantide | indeed | 15:32 |
charl | at the end of the day, you could die no matter what you do | 15:32 |
Cantide | i feel more at risk in SA than i do in Korea, despite the war | 15:32 |
charl | the rumors in europe are so bad about south africa, you would believe you get shot on the street if you visit | 15:32 |
Cantide | haha | 15:32 |
Cantide | it's true - but only if you're on the wrong street :p | 15:33 |
charl | yeah that's what i also try to tell people | 15:33 |
Cantide | i'm sure if i go to one of the more dangerous areas i'd be at serious risk | 15:33 |
charl | it depends on where exactly you are | 15:33 |
Cantide | well, i live in a relatively safe area | 15:33 |
Cantide | and this morning my dad was threatened while taking the dog for a walk | 15:33 |
charl | threatened? | 15:34 |
Cantide | well, some people said they'd hit him | 15:34 |
Cantide | for what reason i don't know | 15:34 |
charl | ooh :( | 15:34 |
charl | i once went with a former colleague of mine (canadian) and she accidentally steered us into south east london | 15:34 |
Cantide | he doesn't know either | 15:34 |
Cantide | what's down there? | 15:34 |
charl | even in europe there are some places that are better to stay out of | 15:34 |
Cantide | lol | 15:34 |
charl | dunno but the people that live there looked shady | 15:34 |
Cantide | haha | 15:34 |
charl | the two of us got pretty freaked out | 15:34 |
charl | got out of there asap | 15:35 |
Cantide | i think one of the biggest threats here now is drugs | 15:35 |
charl | maybe it's just because we don't know the region, it's easy to make assumptions | 15:35 |
Cantide | people on drugs commit crazy crimes to try to get money for more drugs | 15:35 |
Cantide | yeah | 15:35 |
Cantide | still, if you don't feel safe, rather get away :p | 15:36 |
charl | in cape town there was always a big problem with drugs | 15:36 |
Cantide | KZN, too | 15:36 |
charl | i used to work at the university of the western cape at the FSIU | 15:36 |
Cantide | wb Kilos | 15:36 |
Kilos | ty | 15:36 |
Cantide | i have to help with dinner | 15:36 |
Cantide | bbl! | 15:36 |
charl | one of the projects that one of my colleagues was working on was for providing drug users with help | 15:36 |
charl | ciao Cantide | 15:37 |
Cantide | ah | 15:41 |
Cantide | that's a difficult project :< | 15:41 |
charl | well we were just opening up a channel of support | 16:13 |
charl | so that on its own wasn't too bad | 16:13 |
charl | but it's a difficult area to work in | 16:13 |
charl | i wasn't directly involved though | 16:14 |
Squirm | http://mybroadband.co.za/news/columns/74997-facebook-home-the-trojan-horse.html | 16:41 |
Vince-0 | Squirm, you tried it? | 17:39 |
Squirm | Vince-0: nope, still phoneless | 17:40 |
Vince-0 | meh, you might be better off | 17:41 |
Vince-0 | I use mine for games mostly | 17:41 |
Squirm | trying to get the Nexus 4. I know someone coming over from the states, just waiting to hear if he can bring it over | 17:42 |
