| directhex | brobostigon, well, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mn8Sd013sM8 might be indicative. On the left is the old Second Life scripting system, LSL. on the right is the same script compiled using mono, which is now standard in second life. | 11:57 |
| brobostigon | directhex: interesting, | 11:58 |
| brobostigon | bbl, meds to pickup from chemist, hope i stay dry. | 11:59 |
| directhex | using something like Mono for this type of game engine is reasonably logical. The Sims 3 is a good example of it | 11:59 |
| directhex | especially if you compare performance of TS3 and TS2 | 11:59 |

| mgdm | dogmatic69: which bit of that script did you use? The .deb or the second bit? | 16:20 |
| dogmatic69 | mgdm: the deb iirc | 16:20 |
| dogmatic69 | was a while back | 16:20 |
| mgdm | well, just remove the .deb - sudo apt-get remove elasticsearch | 16:21 |
| mgdm | (I think it's remove, at least) | 16:21 |
| dogmatic69 | normally I use apt-get remove, ye. | 16:21 |
| dogmatic69 | maybe I did not use the deb then... | 16:21 |
| mgdm | in that case you probably want to just remove /usr/local/share/elasticsearch | 16:21 |
| mgdm | (which, by the way, is a really strange place to put it) | 16:21 |
| dogmatic69 | ok, its fine to just rm -r it? | 16:22 |
| dogmatic69 | it being that folder. | 16:22 |
| mgdm | make sure it's stopped first, but yeah (subject to the usual disclaimer; if you break it you get to keep all the bits ;-) | 16:22 |
| dogmatic69 | :( | 16:22 |
| dogmatic69 | its only my dev box for doing work / making a living on... | 16:23 |
| mgdm | well, tar it up and keep it somewhere if you're concerned | 16:23 |
| mgdm | or rename it and see if anything breaks | 16:23 |
| dogmatic69 | lol, no space for that :D | 16:23 |
| dogmatic69 | hence trying to clean up | 16:23 |
| dogmatic69 | I will just live on the edge a bit, most things are only a git clone (php dev etc) | 16:24 |

| Azelphur | Anyone got any good suggestions for cheap curtains? I got 8 Windows all with no curtains, so stuff it's looking rather expensive :( | 19:24 |
| mgdm | You've got Windows 8 with no curtains...? | 19:24 |
| * mgdm flees | 19:24 | |
| popey | Azelphur: for cheap curtains see "blinds" | 19:25 |
| directhex | blinds aren't really cheap either | 19:26 |
| Azelphur | popey: haha, yea been looking for that too, it's a bit difficult because of the size required though, need ~2m drop, 1m wide | 19:26 |
| directhex | the cheapest curtains are the pre-sized ones that come shrink-wrapper. if find some that fit your windows. anything else means custom curtains means ££££££££££££££££££££££££££ | 19:26 |
| popey | +1 | 19:26 |
| Myrtti | Azelphur: "ikea" | 19:26 |
| popey | depends on the blinds | 19:26 |
| directhex | yes, ikea is worth considering. dirt cheap compared to non-ikea | 19:27 |
| Myrtti | ikea and mum's sewing machine | 19:27 |
| directhex | it may still be cheaper to buy premade curtains & have them adjusted at a dry cleaners than to have custom curtains done | 19:27 |
| directhex | e.g. for the boy's bedroom we had pre-made tab top curtains converted to track top | 19:27 |
| Azelphur | didn't think of ikea, will check them | 19:28 |
| Myrtti | http://www.flickr.com/photos/myrtti/4700741202/in/set-72157604075155031 | 19:28 |

| Myrtti | http://www.flickr.com/photos/myrtti/4700742416/ | 19:28 |
| Azelphur | sounds like a plan | 19:28 |
| popey | directhex: https://plus.google.com/u/0/102823828455295039123/posts/1gHAhqP2icf | 19:29 |
| shauno | mum's sewing machine ftw. curtains aren't difficult. curtain tape is <50p/metre, and the rest magically falls into place | 19:30 |
| directhex | https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/522990_10150789180530709_115359205_n.jpg | 19:30 |
| popey | awwww | 19:30 |
| Myrtti | most ikea curtains have so much excess that if you have a sewing machine available the excess can be used as curtain tie-backs | 19:31 |
| Myrtti | especially with the ridiculously low ceiling height of UK apartments | 19:31 |
| directhex | popey, confused, why can't i reply to that post? | 19:32 |

| diplo_ | evening all | 20:06 |
| === diplo_ is now known as diplo | ||
| directhex | popey, there are build logs for debian, at buildd.debian.org | 20:07 |
| directhex | https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=eglibc | 20:07 |
| directhex | so, there won't be a build log for architectures where the package was compiled by the maintainer and uploaded. debian requires binary uploads, not source-only uploads (sigh) | 20:08 |
| directhex | there's a delay from a package being in "installed" state and being in your local mirror, too | 20:08 |
| Azelphur | Can anyone with a VPN and an android phone do me a favour and tell me if when wifi tethering is enabled, does the phone route all data through your VPN? | 20:09 |
