[00:08] <redtape|renegade> mgdm : I have a nook color.
[06:59] <diplo> Morning all
[07:00] <hd5770> morning diplo
[07:00] <hd5770> hey man how do i install ksensors ? i get this from apt-get
[07:00] <hd5770> Package ksensors is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[07:00] <hd5770> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[07:00] <hd5770> is only available from another source
[07:01] <diplo> Means it's part of another package, not grabbed it myself. Will have a look a mo
[07:01] <diplo> !info ksensors
[07:01] <hd5770> not used no more ?
[07:01] <hd5770> i was following this website
[07:01] <hd5770> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto
[07:02] <diplo> Not packaged for new releases I'm guessing
[07:02] <diplo> Seems similar to lmsensors
[07:02] <hd5770> yeah it is
[07:02] <diplo> ah i see, it's a gui front end ?
[07:03] <hd5770> yes yes .
[07:03] <hd5770> hmmm strange
[07:03] <diplo> Are you running KDE ?
[07:04] <hd5770> yeah
[07:04] <hd5770> im new to it tho only install last night :P
[07:04] <hd5770> but i have used it in the past meny years ago seems a lot more stable now :)
[07:06] <hd5770> i most go back laters thanks for the help diplo
[07:06] <diplo> Doesn't seem to have been packaged since lucid
[07:13] <MartijnVdS> isn't lmsensors a bit old and being replaced by other kernel subsystems?
[07:13] <MartijnVdS> and files in /sys?
[07:17] <diplo> Probably, had a quick read a few mins ago
[07:17] <popey> i use xsensors to see what temp my laptop is
[07:17] <diplo> Ah that's it, couldn't remember it's name
[07:18] <MartijnVdS> I use turbostat
[07:18] <diplo> I rarely ever used those things
[07:18] <diplo> :)
[07:18] <MartijnVdS> but only incidentally
[07:18] <popey> yeah, i only use it when google hangouts is running, to point out how much cpu it eats
[07:18] <popey> and how crap my laptop is at dumping heat
[07:20] <MartijnVdS> turbostat also shows how often the CPU is in which idle states
[07:42]  * diplo installs
[07:52] <MooDoo> morning
[07:59]  * hd5770 installs both :)
[08:00] <popey> MartijnVdS: turbostat seems odd to install,
[08:01] <diplo> yeah I agree, not worked for me yet either. need to look into it later
[08:01] <popey> finally got it
[08:02] <hd5770> xsensers the one :)
[08:03] <hd5770> got aLL my stats
[08:03] <hd5770> popey how ?
[08:06] <Laney> meow
[08:09] <popey> had to install acpidump linux-tools-common linux-tools, and modprobe msr, then run sudo turbostat
[08:09] <popey> morning Laney
[08:13] <hd5770>  bit of  a faff nut hey its doing stuff  thanks popey
[08:15] <hd5770> its just listing my cpu and freq
[08:15] <hd5770> gay xsenser for the win
[08:16] <bigcalm> Good morning peeps :)
[08:24] <diplo>  
[08:25] <MartijnVdS> popey: you need to install linux-tools-common
[08:25] <MartijnVdS> popey: it's kernel-version dependent
[08:25] <hd5770> its agy
[08:25] <MartijnVdS> like linux-headers etc. (it auto-upgrades along with new kernel versions if you ahve the meta package)
[08:26] <hd5770> just keeps listing cpues in termal
[08:26] <MartijnVdS> popey: acpidump shouldn't be necessary, the modprobe msr is annoying
[08:26] <MartijnVdS> hd5770: yes, it lists all CPUs + their temperature + C-states used + speeds used
[08:26] <hd5770> xsensors
[08:26] <hd5770> for the win
[08:29] <JamesTait> Good morning all, happy Upload A Virus To The Alien Mothership Day! :-D
[08:30] <MartijnVdS> JamesTait: using a Powerbook!
[08:30] <JamesTait> MartijnVdS, of course, what else?

[09:34] <awilkins> I thought the whole point of a big store in the middle was to pay consistent prices that were low...
[09:34] <awilkins> No real correlation between license count and price either

[09:51] <dwatkins> In any case, apps in the Play store are checked for trojans, are they not?
[09:52]  * popey notes redtape|renegade seems to be using irc as twitter.. 
[09:53] <bigcalm> popey: that's what it is. Was bugging me slightly
[09:53] <redtape|renegade> popey: I'm just federationg .. but I'll stop ..
[09:53] <dwatkins> federationg?
[09:53] <redtape|renegade> **federationg
[09:53] <redtape|renegade> damn ..
[09:53] <redtape|renegade> **federating
[09:54] <dwatkins> Federating (verb) Form (states or organizations) into such a centralized unit.
[09:54] <bigcalm> Damn, I really want to paste a cat video link now
[09:55] <dwatkins> if this was blitzed IRC network, I'd just say "find, maru youtube"
[09:55] <davmor2> Morning all
[09:55] <bigcalm> Morning davmor2
[09:55] <davmor2> bigcalm: I loved you my coding companion, so it's your cat now right
[09:55] <redtape|renegade> I don't understyand why people feel so atomised and 'biting their lips' to share stuff ? But I'll stop as popey has said.
[09:56] <davmor2> bigcalm: how long did it sleep there?
[09:56] <popey> i would respond, but i suspect you'll /part before the conversation is finished
[09:56] <popey> and I'll just get more pissed off
[09:56] <dwatkins> redtape|renegade: imagine if everyone just shared links on here
[09:56] <dwatkins> also, what does "feel atomised" mean?
[09:57] <redtape|renegade> popey : I check the logs  most days .. yeah .. just imagine it would be like 'a community' or something ... but I'll walk away .. as this isn't diaspora.
[09:57] <popey> but irc isn't twitter
[09:58] <bigcalm> davmor2: I still think of her as the cat that lives with us. Never felt that I've owned a cat. She slept on my desk for about 2-3 hours I think
[09:58] <popey> bigcalm: my cats never sleep on my desk ☹
[09:58] <redtape|renegade> I don't use twitter .. perhaps I should ?
[09:59] <bigcalm> popey: it was a 1st for me. I had to pull my keyboard all the way to the edge of the desk so that she wouldn't swipe at my fingers as I typed
[09:59] <bigcalm> redtape|renegade: twitter is fun, you should try it :)
[10:01] <dwatkins> I like Twitter, but I prefer Google+ as it has threaded discussions.
[10:01] <davmor2> redtape|renegade: think of irc as letters between friends you ask how people are, you ask for help from people you trust and mostly know, and you have a bit of a laugh, twitter as a link sharing facility, you'll love it and facebook as the holiday snapshot board where you show how drunk and stupid you can be :)
[10:03] <Laney> People do share links on IRC too
[10:04] <dwatkins> indeed, Laney
[10:09] <Laney> but you should be discriminating otherwise people will be overwhelmed
[10:10] <dwatkins> redtape|renegade: thanks for sending me the definition of 'atomised', although I'm still not sure how it applies here
[10:13] <DJones> In irssi, is there a way to have the bottom row of the keyboard as shortcuts to different windows so that they operate the same as the top two rows, Alt+z = window 20 etc
[10:14] <dwatkins> DJones: you can probably re-bind them, although they may already be bound to other functions
[10:14] <dwatkins> do a /bind and have a look at what's already configured
[10:16] <DJones> dwatkins: Thanks, looks like some of them are already bound to other functions, ah well, aliases will do the job
[10:17] <redtape|renegade> dwatkins: It is the opposite of sharing ∴ is defined as "redtape"  .. which I openly rebel against.
[10:19] <dwatkins> redtape|renegade: sometimes one can overshare ;)
[10:19] <redtape|renegade> sometimes ..
[10:19] <dwatkins> anyway, I tend to just do what everyone else does around these parts
[10:20] <dwatkins> on other channels, I often share links - they are mainly to images of kittens, though.
[10:22] <redtape|renegade> well that's interesting .. the 1st reaction to any share for myself is "Well , how does that help me/others ?" .. but we are getting semantic ,..  & I'm not indicating any value for today's posts.
[10:26] <dwatkins> I thought it was a link to a related board, or do you not mean today?
[10:28] <redtape|renegade> "it was a link to a related board"  .. by that you mean .. this is a portal to those in charge of the Ubuntu-UK loco team ? I'm not sure I understand ..
[10:29] <popey> Not sure we have anyone "in charge" of the UK loco team ⍨
[10:29] <MartijnVdS> popey: I volunteer you!
[10:29] <brobostigon> anyone made sausage rolls before ? think i can use normal chipolatas insted of just straight sausage meat ?
[10:30] <popey> brobostigon: that would be pigs in blankets
[10:30] <popey> well, the american definition of pigs in blankets
[10:30] <brobostigon> yes, quite.
[10:30] <dwatkins> redtape|renegade: I thought you were referring to the first link you posted this morning
[10:31] <MartijnVdS> popey: "hog in a hammock"
[10:31] <DJones> popey: Don't talk about pigs in blankets, my mouth has started watering at thought of eating some
[10:31] <popey> heh
[10:31] <bigcalm> BACON!
[10:35] <redtape|renegade> dwatkins: Oh . Ok you mean 'MoBo' as in mother*board* .. Ok .. yes .. I was a look into the JW11 that runs Android .. that's completely different .. Yes, well Android have an almost monopoly on ARM devices these days HTPC or not.
[10:35] <redtape|renegade> **Iwas having a look ...
[10:36] <dwatkins> redtape|renegade: I think we're talking about different conversations :)
[10:38] <redtape|renegade> The only alternative that I've found is :: http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv6/raspberry-pi :: Archlinux|Arm seems to be ahead of a lot of others in this field .. but I don't know how close *linaro* is to Ubuntu .. I guess it come down  to the 'power ' of the CPU etc .. mostly underpowered for Ubuntu.
[10:38] <redtape|renegade> **comes down ..
[10:38] <MartijnVdS> isn't Linaro a meta-thing, optimizing compilers etc.?
[10:38] <dwatkins> redtape|renegade: http://hastebin.com/kicijejowo.xml
[10:39] <redtape|renegade> opening...
[10:39] <dwatkins> That's what I thought you were referring-to
[10:40] <redtape|renegade> dwatkins: I wasn't 'cos no-body jumped on the conversation ,... but we can if you prefer , if not .. I care not.
[10:41] <dwatkins> ah ok, I'm lost, then
[10:43] <brobostigon> option two, remove sausage meat from sausages.
[10:45] <hd5770> i had pigs in blankets last night 2 chicken with cheese in middle to extra good bacon raped a round yummmmm
[10:47] <dwatkins> I'm going to have to have lunch now.
[11:15] <popey> brobostigon: i have done that too, removed sausage meat from pork sausages to add to mince beef when making meatballs
[11:16] <brobostigon> popey: ah, it simply seems like the best solution.
[11:23] <directhex> cheap sausages are mostly bread, of course
[11:28] <hd5770> bread!! in a sausages
[11:31] <MartijnVdS> snakes!! on a plane
[11:32] <directhex> pornography!! on my computer?
[11:32] <MartijnVdS> directhex: it's more likely than you think
[11:32] <directhex> yay, someone got the reference
[11:32] <TheOpenSourcerer> I rather like Devils on Horseback
[11:33] <directhex> y'big nerd
[11:33] <TheOpenSourcerer> Prune wrapped in Bacon...
[11:33]  * TheOpenSourcerer 's mind wanders off to thoughts of food and beer.
[11:33] <MartijnVdS> hmmm beer
[11:34] <TheOpenSourcerer> I'm out this evening with an old mate.
[11:37]  * popey has placed a lamb leg in the slow cooker
[11:37] <popey> i can smell it
[11:37] <popey> aaargh
[11:40] <TheOpenSourcerer> Gosh - that must be a large slow cooker or a very small lamb's leg popey
[11:40] <MartijnVdS> TheOpenSourcerer: it's a lamb, not a sheep
[11:41] <hd5770> how can i staress test my system
[11:41] <TheOpenSourcerer> popey: We'll be back at the "All you can eat" chinese tonight... ;-)
[11:41] <mgdm> hd5770: what kind of stress?
[11:41] <TheOpenSourcerer> Shout at it a lot
[11:41] <TheOpenSourcerer> sorry.
[11:41] <popey> its kinda crow-bared in
[11:41] <popey> its a fairly small leg
[11:42] <TheOpenSourcerer> Better write some scripts hd5770 to generate whatever kind of load you need.
[11:42] <hd5770> TheOpenSourcerer,  i do any way lol
[11:45] <popey> you can stress the desktop with phoronix-test-suite
[11:45] <popey> in the repo
[12:07] <brobostigon> in the oven, roughly 180/190c, felt about the right temp.
[12:07] <brobostigon> fingers crossed.

[12:10] <TheOpenSourcerer> nom nom. Quite a large Slow Cooker...
[12:12] <popey> i guess
[12:12] <popey> it just fits in the sink, for cleaning
[12:13] <TheOpenSourcerer> I had one before I was married and it was rather small - prolly 8" in diameter and about the same depth.
[12:14] <mgdm> I got a fairly decent sized one a while ago
[12:14] <mgdm> I don't use it as much as I should though
[12:15] <TheOpenSourcerer> We were talking about them in the pub the other night - was tempted to get another and use it a bit more. I rather like stews and curries etc - which are perfect for slow cookers.
[12:15] <brobostigon> good for making a chilli, leaving it all afternoon while in the pub, or at work, and getting home to a perfect chilli.
[12:15] <TheOpenSourcerer> Indeed brobostigon
[12:15] <TheOpenSourcerer> Hmm, chilli...
[12:15] <brobostigon> :)
[12:15] <MartijnVdS> I need to get one
[12:15] <mgdm> I have some beef that's destined for it at home, actually
[12:16] <mgdm> need to do that
[12:16] <mgdm> They're actually really cheap, too
[12:17] <popey> I did a whole chicken in one on monday
[12:18] <popey> and a chilli on tuesday
[12:18] <popey> today is lamb! so it's really slow-cooker-week for me
[12:18] <brobostigon> damn, i just had a cool idea, cheesy sausage rolls.?
[12:19] <directhex> we have a book of slow cooker curries
[12:19] <popey> yeah, i think we have a slow cooker book
[12:19] <popey> it's dead handy given I'm at home all day, I can slap it on at lunchtime and check it through the day
[12:20] <TheOpenSourcerer> Blimey - all this talk of food...
[12:22] <popey> indeed!
[12:22] <popey> bah, had a great idea for a game in bed last night, can't remember now

[14:11] <mungbean> interestd to see the kind of market out there
[14:12] <hamitron> is there a filesystem type/method to have a directory tree, with files stored on external media (such as dvd), where the user is prompted to insert the media for the file wanted?
[14:13] <hamitron> dunno if that is clear what I want
[14:13] <hamitron> ;)
[14:14] <popey> Not to me.
[14:15] <hamitron> example: a folder with 7GB of xvid movies, some are on disk1 and others are on disk2.... a user can browse all the files, but then must insert the correct disk to play the file?
[14:15] <bigcalm> I'm guessing it's like on Window where you've installed something like Office and at a later date want to make an update, the system tells you to insert the CD...
[14:15] <hamitron> yeh, where each disk has a number or code
[14:16] <bigcalm> hamitron: sounds like you want a catalogue
[14:16] <hamitron> yep
[14:16] <hamitron> this isn't just for movies though
[14:17] <popey> we used to have one of those
[14:17] <popey> an HP jukebox box, thing
[14:17] <popey> it had 8 CD drives and some hard disks.
[14:17] <hamitron> want it to work for directories too
[14:18] <hamitron> could do it manually with soft links
[14:20] <hamitron> mv file /mnt/mediaxyz && ln -s /mnt/mediaxyz/file file
[14:20] <hamitron> but kinda want it "automated"
[14:42] <bigcalm> Do I want to buy a previous generation xbox?
[14:42] <BigRedS> No
[14:44] <SuperMatt> nah
[14:44] <SuperMatt> after 6 months there won't be any new games for it
[14:45] <popey> define previous generation?
[14:45] <bigcalm> Not the xbone
[14:45]  * popey looks at his original Xbox crystal in a crate next to him
[14:46] <bigcalm> I've been watching Hat Films playing Trials Evolution
[14:46] <Dave2> so current generation then
[14:46]  * Dave2 nods.
[14:46] <bigcalm> Dave2: isn't eh xbone available for sale?
[14:46] <popey> pre-order
[14:46] <Dave2> no.
[14:46] <bigcalm> Ok
[14:46] <bigcalm> Current generation then :D
[14:46] <Dave2> not for months and months
[14:47] <bigcalm> Oh, it's available on Windows
[14:48] <bigcalm> I have a Wii. All I play on it are Lego games. I think I need something else in my life
[14:49] <popey> \o/ Ouya
[14:49] <bigcalm> ¬.¬
[14:49] <mungbean> i bought a snowboarding game for the wii balance board
[14:50] <mungbean> wii fit is fun too
[14:50] <mungbean> you can probably pick it up for ~15
[14:51] <popey> and you too can leave it leaning up against the TV with batteries rotting inside like everyone else
[14:52] <mungbean> i've been using it
[14:52] <mungbean> only last coupla weeks though
[14:52] <mgdm> popey: good then?
[14:53] <bigcalm> I use my wii fit every day
[14:54] <popey> gosh
[14:54] <popey> what do you play?
[14:54] <bigcalm> Wii Fit +
[14:54] <bigcalm> I do 25 mins of exercise on it
[14:58] <hamitron> the kinect games for fitness are good too
[14:58] <popey> our lounge isnt big enough for kinect really
[14:58]  * hamitron hangs head in shame
[14:58] <hamitron> ah, that could be an issue :/
[14:59] <popey> 26 degrees on sunday!
[14:59] <hamitron> :/
[14:59] <hamitron> too hot now ffs
[15:00] <SuperMatt> oh now I want an icecream
[15:00] <hamitron> anyone here used btier?
[15:00] <SuperMatt> thanks guys
[15:00] <Darael> ...Why did I have to follow a link to fusionio?  Those cards are *shiny*.  Shame they're expensive enough that the prices aren't listed on the site (which as we know is hardly ever a good sign).
[15:06] <DJones> hamitron: Too hot? Never, another 10C and it'll be just comfortable
[15:06] <hamitron> no way! :(
[15:07] <hamitron> 22C is my max working temp
[15:08] <hamitron> anything above and I have to enter lazy mode
[15:08] <Darael> What?  Heresy!  22C is the low end of optimal working range.
[15:08] <DJones> mungbean: I love the snowboarding games on the wii, only problem is that they leave me crippled (two dodgy knee's so end up unable to walk)
[15:08] <DJones> Darael: +1 to that
[15:13] <hamitron> oh I give up
[15:13] <hamitron> just gonna buy some new hdd
[15:13] <hamitron> ;)
[15:13] <hamitron> trying to spread files across media is a pain
[16:00] <Stripe> hi guys just wanted to say thanks for the advice yesterday, i am going to get a dell
[16:22] <popey> cool
[16:22] <TheOpenSourcerer> Right then. Think it's about time I wandered into town for a beer :-)
[16:29]  * xnox is listening to: Avicii and Aloe Blacc - Wake Me Up!   <[17:00] <HoT|2fC^iPad> lo all :)
[17:17] <diddledan> beer on a thurdsday?!
[17:20] <popey> outrage
[17:21] <MartijnVdS> but.. Thursday = beer & pizza night
[17:21] <MartijnVdS> also, tomorrow is Comic Sans day
[17:21] <diddledan> comic sans must die
[17:21] <MartijnVdS> diddledan: hence the drinking
[17:22] <MartijnVdS> http://comicsansdag.nl/
[17:30] <diddledan> kill it with fire!
[17:31] <MartijnVdS> diddledan: just enjoy it for the day
[17:31] <diddledan> nevar
[17:31] <diddledan> comic sans is an abomination :-p
[17:32] <MartijnVdS> diddledan: but it's going to be comic sans day!
[17:32] <diddledan> I shall be the one not participating in festivities :-D
[17:33] <jacobw> Comic Sans is more culpable for the finanical crisis than anything else
[17:33] <MartijnVdS> jacobw: how so?
[17:34] <MartijnVdS> jacobw: did it put "proper" foundries out of business?
[17:34] <diddledan> when Douglas Adams wrote about "big friendly letters" he did not in any way envisage the evilness of comic sans
[17:35] <jacobw> MartijnVdS: It's just the worst thing I can think to say about Comic Sans
[17:35] <diddledan> jacobw: you'd be right then :-p
[17:36] <MartijnVdS> jacobw: "comic sans touches children" ?
[17:36] <MartijnVdS> (it's funny because it's true.. in a sense)
[17:36] <diddledan> and the silence outside my window is suddenly shattered with a youf yelling as if to nobody as there were no other noises until he uttered "f*cking knob!"
[17:36] <jacobw> In an odd sense
[17:37] <diddledan> and yes, "f*ck" does spell "fasterisck" :-p
[17:38] <MartijnVdS> oh, I figured you meant "frock"
[17:38] <diddledan> frollock?
[17:38] <diddledan> how many others are there?
[17:39] <MartijnVdS> "frolicking knob" ?
[17:39] <diddledan> now the usual noises of urban life have returned
[17:39] <diddledan> including the obligatory car alarm
[17:40] <MartijnVdS> diddledan: sirens in the distance?
[17:40] <diddledan> yup
[17:40] <MartijnVdS> so I'm guessing.. north-west England? :)
[17:40] <diddledan> lol
[17:40] <diddledan> nah, basingstoke :-p
[17:41] <diddledan> find the thames, and the severn estuaries, draw a line between them, then find the estuary above the little island down the middle bottom and draw a vertical line from there, and where the two lines meet is basingstoke
[17:42] <MartijnVdS> diddledan: I drove past it :)
[17:42] <MartijnVdS> once
[17:43] <diddledan> best thing you could have done - woe betide you if you actually stopped here
[17:43] <MartijnVdS> also:
[17:43] <MartijnVdS> "Are you trying to tell me that we just stuck out our thumbs and some green bug-eyed monster stuck his head out and said, Hi fellas, hop right in. I can take you as far as the Basingstoke roundabout?" - Arthur Dent, Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
[17:44] <diddledan> yeah, basingstoke is renowned for roundabouts
[17:44] <MartijnVdS> I thought that was Swindon?
[17:44] <diddledan> swindon has the "magic" roundabout, but basingstoke has more ordinary ones
[17:44] <MartijnVdS> diddledan: the entire country seems to be littered with "normal" ones
[17:45] <MartijnVdS> diddledan: (I drove from Harwich to Land's End and back)
[17:45] <diddledan> yeah, we decided we liked circles and so plonked them down everywhere there was enough space for them
[17:45] <MartijnVdS> just a dot in the middle of the road in places
[17:50] <davmor2> diddledan: ERROR: fsck failed yob is not ext2 compatible
[17:51] <diddledan> lolz
[17:59] <popey> Squeee! L4D2 on Steam for £3.74!
[17:59] <popey> http://store.steampowered.com/app/550/
[18:00] <MartijnVdS> but.. I already own it
[18:00] <popey> I don't! :D
[18:00] <MartijnVdS> popey: wanna play? :)
[18:00] <popey> can't yet, still working
[18:00] <MartijnVdS> .. sometime soon?
[18:00] <czajkowski> aloha
[18:01] <popey> yes!
[18:03] <MartijnVdS> hmm
[18:03] <czajkowski> I'm thinking tonight may have to be a curry night
[18:03] <MartijnVdS> what's the difference between "Left 4 Dead 2 (Beta)" and "Left 4 Dead 2 Beta"?
[18:03] <MartijnVdS> I seem to have both
[18:05] <popey> me too
[18:06] <popey> installing the one without the brackets though
[18:06] <popey> (bought it) :D
[18:06] <MartijnVdS> popey: only the one with brackets has an icon
[18:06] <mgdm> czajkowski: 'lo, yu at EuroPython?
[18:06] <MartijnVdS> which means it's the "official" release version I guess?
[18:06] <popey> strange, this one is downloading
[18:06] <popey> 11.5GB
[18:07]  * MartijnVdS starts Little Inferno
[18:09] <popey> the () one is 7.6GB
[18:09]  * popey downloads both for the hell of it
[18:19] <Darael> MartijnVdS: Hast completed Little Inferno before?
[18:20] <Darael> There's a few surprising turns in that game, let me tell you.
[18:21] <Darael> Do wish I'd kept that coupon, though.  Yes, indeed.
[18:27] <directhex> popey, MartijnVdS, you want the one WITH brackets
[18:27] <directhex> the one without brackets is the beta version of the game on all platforms, and only supports beta servers. the one with brackets is the beta version of the linux port of the non-beta version, i.e. it can play on any global servers
[18:28] <directhex> on windows, there's left 4 dead 2, and left 4 dead 2 beta (no brackets)
[18:28] <popey> ta
[18:29] <czajkowski> mgdm: narp just got back
[18:29] <czajkowski> berlin on monday
[18:29] <mgdm> czajkowski: ah, I was going to get you to say hello to one of the speakers just to confuse him :-)
[18:30] <czajkowski> lol
[18:30] <czajkowski> I just got back
[18:30] <mgdm> you certainly seem to be earning your air miles since the job switch, eh? :)
[18:30] <czajkowski> so I need to find some sort of program for EU flights
[18:31] <czajkowski> as so many airlines
[18:32] <mgdm> czajkowski: ask Derick
[18:33] <directhex> popey, https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/2640
[18:57] <mgdm> one for czajkowski; http://i.imgur.com/pwwSmRk.jpg
[18:58] <czajkowski> LOL
[19:00] <redtape|renegade> czajkowski: What's with the Pug thing ? U got one ... ?
[19:01] <czajkowski> nope, just like them.
[19:01] <redtape|renegade> charming.
[19:06] <popey> There's something about pugs
[19:07] <czajkowski> there was one a the airport today
[19:30] <ZenoArrow> Hi. I've tried to uninstall a package using sudo apt-get remove --purge (following up with sudo apt-get autoremove), but I'm certain that it didn't clear everything. Is there any way to locate the files that the install changed?
[19:31] <popey> that should have removed it
[19:31] <popey> there may be generated files it wont remove
[19:31] <popey> and it wont touch things in your home directory
[19:31] <MartijnVdS> and things like log files probably
[19:31] <popey> yeah
[19:31]  * popey has a quick blast at l4d2
[19:32] <ZenoArrow> popey: It should've removed everything. To be clearer about the issue, after the first install, a script ran that attempted to setup some databases (but failed).
[19:33] <ZenoArrow> So that the script had a chance of running successfully, I followed the steps I mentioned earlier to remove the program, and attempted the install again.
[19:33] <ZenoArrow> This time, the database setup script did not run.
[19:34] <ZenoArrow> As I saw that the script failed the first time, I know the failure to run the script isn't down to the data already existing, so it must be setup related.
[19:34] <ZenoArrow> I'll have a look in my home directory and see what I can find.
[20:49] <staff-> hi folks
[20:49] <staff-> how are ya
[20:52] <popey> GREAT!
[20:52] <popey> Oh.

[20:54] <bigcalm> Aww, was I the only person to send uupc a cat photo?

[21:34] <Azelphur> to play? isn't that what minecraft is all about ;)
[21:34] <Azelphur> who doesn't want programmable computers with item networks.
