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