| MartijnVdS | brobostigon: or are you keeping it "stock" for the time being | 08:01 |
| brobostigon | MartijnVdS: i didnt know you could actually do that, good to know, :) | 08:01 |
| MartijnVdS | brobostigon: I don't know if you can, but it has a processor, so why not | 08:02 |
| brobostigon | i think something like a MB of storage, so plenty of space. | 08:02 |
| MooDoo | you mean GB? | 08:02 |
| brobostigon | rtos i believe. | 08:03 |
| brobostigon | i cant find the page now, but it isnt very much apparently. | 08:08 |

| === iahmad_ is now known as iahmad|afk | ||
| knightwise | hey guys | 08:34 |
| knightwise | quick technical question | 08:34 |
| knightwise | i need to find out from what IP address i'm approaching a certain website | 08:34 |
| knightwise | but i'm in a citrix desktop session so I don't have any command line access | 08:34 |
| knightwise | or dosbox | 08:35 |
| knightwise | any idea how i can find that out ? | 08:35 |
| mapps | cant you just use a website like whatismyip.com | 08:35 |
| knightwise | mapps , agreed | 08:35 |
| knightwise | but ... | 08:35 |
| mapps | did i miss something sorry | 08:35 |
| MartijnVdS | the proxy might be set to only proxy for some sites.. | 08:35 |
| mapps | thought yousaid no command line? can you not load a browser? | 08:36 |
| mapps | ah | 08:36 |
| knightwise | Normally all my traffic goes through a proxy | 08:36 |
| knightwise | exxcept that one site | 08:36 |
| MartijnVdS | knightwise: if you have control over the server, you can put a small script there that tells you | 08:36 |
| knightwise | so thats the one I need to find out. | 08:36 |
| knightwise | No control over the server :( | 08:36 |
| MartijnVdS | knightwise: put the server in your /etc/hosts, pointing to 127.0.0.1 | 08:36 |
| MartijnVdS | knightwise: if you end up at 127.0.0.1, the proxy is not used | 08:36 |
| MartijnVdS | if you don't the proxy IS used, and you can use whatsmyip.com :) | 08:37 |
| knightwise | As I said , i'm only a thin client user on that server , so I have no access rights whatsoever | 08:37 |
| shauno | that might give you a false positive, most systems know to skip the proxy for local addresses | 08:37 |
| MartijnVdS | shauno: also, NAT | 08:37 |
| knightwise | Is an "online traceroute" something that works ? | 08:37 |
| MartijnVdS | knightwise: only from the website it's on | 08:37 |
| MartijnVdS | knightwise: (it traces from the server the traceroute script runs on) | 08:38 |
| knightwise | damn ... | 08:38 |
| knightwise | also not what I need | 08:38 |
| MartijnVdS | knightwise: what OS are you on? | 08:38 |
| MartijnVdS | knightwise: there might be flash versions of those tools, those work client side | 08:39 |
| MartijnVdS | knightwise: or in a java applet | 08:39 |
| knightwise | I'll give it a try | 08:39 |
| SuperMatt | morning all | 08:41 |

| Myrtti | new (to us) car day! | 09:14 |
| MooDoo | yaya | 09:14 |
| SuperMatt | ugh, a colleague of mine has put on the limp bizcuit version of behind blue eyes, and frankly it is making me feel sick | 09:17 |
| Myrtti | I knew there was another version than the Limp Bizkit one but I forgot which one was original... my mind must be slipping | 09:20 |
| Myrtti | and yes, no matter what version of the song is playing, I get nauseous too | 09:20 |
| JamesTait | Good morning all; happy Mountain Day! :-D | 09:27 |

| MooDoo | hmmm anyone up for a ubuntu uk christmas google + hangout a week on sunday 22nd? could be a giggle :D | 10:55 |
| MartijnVdS | why not | 10:57 |
| * MartijnVdS has a webcam and 100mbit internet ;) | 10:57 | |
| MooDoo | might send it to the mailing list..... | 10:57 |
| dogmatic69 | MartijnVdS: you on Virgin? | 10:59 |
| MartijnVdS | dogmatic69: nah, I'm in the Netherlands :) | 10:59 |
| dogmatic69 | ah | 11:00 |
| MartijnVdS | dogmatic69: on XS4ALL | 11:00 |
| MartijnVdS | dogmatic69: with FttH, so 100/100 symmetric | 11:00 |
| * dogmatic69 has 100mbit too :) | 11:00 | |
| dogmatic69 | only 10 upload though :/ | 11:00 |
| davmor2 | Morning all | 11:00 |
| MooDoo | morning davmor2 | 11:01 |
| davmor2 | Hey MooDoo how's Life | 11:02 |
| diddledan | I hate multilingualising | 11:03 |
| MartijnVdS | dogmatic69: I'll be getting 500/500 :) | 11:03 |
| MooDoo | davmor2: brill thanks, just sent a email to the mailing list :) how are you sir? | 11:03 |
| MartijnVdS | diddledan: what's wrong with multilingualism? | 11:03 |
| diplo | MartijnVdS: Do you know you can get to not like some people | 11:04 |
| diplo | :) | 11:04 |
| popey | MOO! | 11:04 |
| diddledan | turns out that I need to change my doodah because the client insists on it being a different format to what I'd speficied - i.e. I've given them two phone number slots, they only want to use one despite the original spec requiring two | 11:04 |
| diddledan | DOO | 11:04 |
| diddledan | put it together and you got MOODOO | 11:04 |
| MooDoo | awwww shucks you guys ;) | 11:04 |
| dogmatic69 | MartijnVdS: I got a email saying I get free upgrade to 120 soon :P | 11:05 |
| diddledan | dogmatic69: virgin? | 11:05 |
| dogmatic69 | yep | 11:05 |
| diddledan | aah | 11:05 |
| diddledan | <-- sky | 11:05 |
| diddledan | I got 40megalumps | 11:05 |
| * diplo if lucky gets 8mb on Sky | 11:06 | |
| diddledan | I want moar | 11:06 |
| dogmatic69 | diddledan: the difference between virgin and <other_broadband> is that on speed test I get 101.xxmbit on a 100mbit line | 11:06 |
| diddledan | lol | 11:06 |
| diplo | Can get Fibre, but not sure I want to upgrade an dbe tied for another year so pondering.. | 11:06 |
| MartijnVdS | diddledan: I also get 25/25 on 4G | 11:06 |
| diddledan | ouch | 11:06 |
| diddledan | that's fast wirelesses | 11:06 |
| diplo | MartijnVdS: Again, you can go off some people :) | 11:06 |
| dogmatic69 | never had any broadband that came close to the advertised speed | 11:07 |
| dogmatic69 | before virgin that is | 11:07 |
| MartijnVdS | diplo: 4G speeds should be similar everywhere, right? | 11:07 |
| MartijnVdS | diplo: it's the same tech | 11:07 |
| popey | http://www.speedtest.net/result/3158299347.png \o/ | 11:07 |
| popey | 60 megalumps | 11:07 |
| davmor2 | popey: you only just been updated or something? | 11:08 |
| diddledan | that's a lotta lumps | 11:08 |
| davmor2 | MooDoo: oh exciting | 11:08 |
| dogmatic69 | diplo: 4g should go upto around 100mbit on mobile | 11:09 |
| dogmatic69 | in ideal conditions etc | 11:09 |
| diddledan | ideal being sat at the foot od the tower | 11:10 |
| diddledan | actually that's probably one of the worst places for reception | 11:10 |
| MartijnVdS | dogmatic69: isn't that LTE-Advanced? | 11:10 |
| MartijnVdS | dogmatic69: with "normal" LTE being up to 50? | 11:10 |
| davmor2 | popey: http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3158303941 | 11:11 |
| diddledan | Long-Term Evolution my foot! | 11:11 |
| MartijnVdS | diddledan: yes, that's how it came about ;) | 11:11 |
| popey | heh | 11:11 |
| dogmatic69 | MartijnVdS: ah, seems so | 11:11 |
| MartijnVdS | sigh @ people who name standards: | 11:11 |
| MartijnVdS | Simultaneous voice and LTE (SVLTE) | 11:11 |
| dogmatic69 | seems LTE normal is 300 on wiki | 11:12 |
| dogmatic69 | "Peak download rates up to 299.6 Mbit/s and upload rates up to 75.4 Mbit/s depending on the user equipment category" | 11:12 |
| MartijnVdS | dogmatic69: then Vodafone is probably limiting it here :) | 11:12 |
| dogmatic69 | ye, overselling | 11:12 |
| MartijnVdS | dogmatic69: also, 20MHz of spectrum is a lot, and nobody has 4x4 antennas | 11:12 |
| diddledan | yeah a lot of corps are artificially limiting it | 11:12 |
| dogmatic69 | diddledan: that is how de beers made diamonds expenisve | 11:13 |
| dogmatic69 | oldest trick in the book | 11:13 |
| diddledan | they wouldn't be able to cope with the bandwidth (bits per second not wireless bandwidth) required for everyone to be on marked speeds | 11:13 |
| diddledan | that's a funky word: Boodschap | 11:16 |
| diddledan | MartijnVdS: what does it actually translate to? | 11:16 |
| diddledan | I've got it down as translation of "message" | 11:16 |
| MartijnVdS | diddledan: yes, it's "message" | 11:17 |
| bigcalm | Good morning peeps :) | 11:17 |
| bigcalm | davmor2: still going to the LUG meal tonight, or ditching it to see Sarah Millican instead? | 11:17 |
| diddledan | that's good, I'm still in sync with the actual content vs the foreign translation that doesn't include reference to what the translation is actually translating | 11:18 |
| MartijnVdS | Or when you go shopping, that's "boodschappen (doen)" | 11:18 |
| diddledan | lol, Onderwerp, sounds like "under wear" | 11:19 |
| davmor2 | bigcalm: the LUG it will be funnier, I have cards to write :) | 11:19 |
| DJones | Erm, http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-25330237 I must be missing something, how do blobs on a piece of paper become worth ~£15,000 each, I must get some new colour inks for my printer, I've got a ream of paper here, 500 * £15,000 = Loaded | 11:19 |
| MartijnVdS | diddledan: Well "onder" means "below", just like "sub" in subject | 11:19 |
| diddledan | aha | 11:19 |
| diddledan | it all makes sense | 11:19 |
| bigcalm | davmor2: ack, me too | 11:20 |
| MartijnVdS | diddledan: it's a translation from Latin from the 1500s | 11:20 |
| diddledan | I guess I need to learn latin >.< | 11:21 |
| diddledan | :-p | 11:21 |
| diddledan | those damned italians | 11:21 |
| MartijnVdS | diddledan: learning about the indo-european roots of all those languages would be even more useful | 11:22 |
| MartijnVdS | diddledan: and/or the various vowel and consontant shifts | 11:22 |
| MartijnVdS | -t | 11:22 |
| diddledan | continent shifts? :-p | 11:22 |
| MartijnVdS | diddledan: those too, but that's a different subject :) | 11:22 |
| diddledan | lol | 11:22 |
| MartijnVdS | diddledan: http://historyofenglishpodcast.com/ ;) | 11:23 |
| diddledan | as apple would say: there's a podcast for that | 11:24 |
| diddledan | but they wouldn't because they can't scrape any money off podcasts | 11:24 |
| diddledan | actually they might be working on a way to do so. that would be a money spinner. | 11:25 |
| diddledan | imagine. you can publish your podcast anywhere but when apple drives listeners to your podcast you must pay apple 30% of any advertising or direct revenue from that user | 11:26 |
| diddledan | like ebooks or apps that have a webstore built in | 11:26 |
| MartijnVdS | diddledan: I've heard a few ads in podcasts, they just play it at the start/end and/or the presenters do some promotion for a service and give a discount code | 11:27 |
| MartijnVdS | diddledan: the "history of english" guy made a "history of the alphabet" series you can pay for | 11:27 |
| MartijnVdS | diddledan: and another podcast I listen to is kickstartering its second season | 11:27 |
| MooDoo | popey: ah poo didn't know hangouts on air was 18+ doesn't the normal hangout only have a set amount of people that can join or has that limit been removed? | 11:42 |

| foobarry | i havent found someone yet who *only* uses the net, without occasional other bits and bobs | 15:11 |
| foobarry | the fact they sell them in netbook size suggests its a companion to other computing devices you already have | 15:12 |
| foobarry | could that dell pic be any more multi cultural? | 15:14 |

| MartijnVdS | or "any ban or prohibition." | 15:50 |
| bigcalm | Somebody (not me) should set-up a RPi and webcam to play scalextric against a human. Reacting to impending corners and proximity to other cars. Sending control signals either directly to the track or via an actuator to vary pressure on a controller | 15:50 |
| MartijnVdS | bigcalm: why not you? | 15:51 |
| bigcalm | MartijnVdS: lack of time and Scalextric ;) | 15:51 |

| Azelphur | crappy skype xD | 17:03 |
| daftykins | i feel like the world + dog upgraded to a Nexus 5 whilst i just got my N4 back in Feb :> | 17:03 |
| Azelphur | I was gonna stick with my N4, but someone offered me £190 for it | 17:04 |
| Azelphur | figured it was worth the cheap upgrade | 17:04 |
| daftykins | :o | 17:04 |
| daftykins | neat :) | 17:04 |
| daftykins | alrighty, i think i've made my house sufficiently cat-proof | 17:04 |
| daftykins | i'm cat-sitting for my olds this weekend, with the view that they're going to try and give me this one permanently D: | 17:05 |
| Azelphur | cat sitting \o/ | 17:08 |
| dwatkins | a friend of mine was cat-sitting two cats, and one of them disappeared within the flat for 4 hours, she was distraught | 17:09 |
| dwatkins | it magically turned-up later that same evening, acting like nothing had happened, of course | 17:09 |
| popey | wifey rabbit sat the neighbours bunny | 17:10 |
| popey | it died | 17:10 |
| popey | well, we had to take it to the vets and have it put down | 17:10 |
| popey | it got bum rot | 17:10 |
| dwatkins | :( | 17:10 |
| daftykins | dwatkins: :D | 17:10 |
| popey | she was scared that they'd go mental when they got back | 17:10 |
| popey | so we asked their friend (who picked them up from their airport) to let them know in the car | 17:11 |
| popey | the family were very much "oh, whatever" | 17:11 |
| dwatkins | blimey | 17:11 |
| dwatkins | I'm a 36 year old man, and I cried when my hamster had to be put down. | 17:11 |
| dwatkins | (last year) | 17:12 |
| daftykins | wow, didn't think there was much that could afflict hamsters prior to their already short lifespan | 17:12 |
| dwatkins | he had cancer, poor dude, had a massive lump on his belly | 17:12 |
| daftykins | :O | 17:12 |
| dwatkins | this all happened relatively quickly, he was fine until a couple days before | 17:13 |
