| MartijnVdS | davmor2: do you think that screensaver bug will be fixed before final? | 07:43 |
| MooDoo | speaking of bugs, anyone know if the login focus issue has been fixed with the beta | 07:44 |
| MartijnVdS | MooDoo: login focus? | 07:49 |
| MooDoo | MartijnVdS: on the login screen, after initial boot, you have to right click or do something to get the focus on the login prompt...er does that make sense.... | 07:51 |
| MooDoo | MartijnVdS: to be honest I went back to Saucy so I don't know if it's fixed or just me :D | 07:51 |
| MartijnVdS | MooDoo: works fine on mine without the click | 07:54 |

| jussi | FSOIP needs to be invented soon | 08:43 |
| jussi | (Face Stab Over IP) | 08:43 |
| MooDoo | hee hee | 08:43 |
| Myrtti | in other news, I love a cappella and Coldplay http://open.spotify.com/track/0pt23eSh17tYjhiOEKGKvE | 08:44 |
| foobarry | was just trying to download a 3rd party app for windows. i have sympathy for windows users. | 09:39 |
| foobarry | even the "trusted" sites feature adverts to trick you into installing the wrong thing | 09:40 |
| foobarry | repos ftw | 09:40 |
| dwatkins | yeah, loads of green "DOWNLOAD" buttons | 09:40 |
| jussi | foobarry: +++ | 09:40 |
| dwatkins | also, ad-block etc. | 09:40 |
| foobarry | this is a fresh pc, no firefox etc | 09:40 |
| foobarry | i felt very vulnerable | 09:40 |
| MooDoo | oh it's just ie for you, nothing new there.... | 09:40 |
| foobarry | my sis got pwned within 30 mins of owning her laptop when looking for a codec. | 09:41 |
| popey | blimey | 09:41 |
| MooDoo | wish people would get over this windows is rubbish ubuntu is great malarky....:p | 09:41 |
| MooDoo | yes i'm whiny today :D | 09:41 |
| popey | why do you always feel the need to jump to the defence of windows MooDoo ? | 09:41 |
| Myrtti | sourceforge is awful nowadays | 09:41 |
| jussi | MooDoo: is a secret MS agent | 09:41 |
| dwatkins | it's not Windows, it's these websites that's the issue here. | 09:41 |
| MooDoo | popey: no excuse | 09:42 |
| popey | heh | 09:42 |
| popey | I wonder what peoples very first download are on a fresh windows install usually | 09:42 |
| popey | i imagine for some it's ff/chrome, others steam, some vlc... | 09:42 |
| foobarry | also the pc is stuck installing update 1 of 2 after i chose a reboot. not sure if stuck or doing something | 09:42 |
| popey | would make for interesting stats | 09:42 |
| popey | (drivers aside) | 09:42 |
| popey | actually drivers included would be interesting | 09:42 |
| MooDoo | mine was AV to be honest. which ok i'll admit screwed me over last time I had to do it | 09:43 |
| dwatkins | MooDoo: which AV? | 09:43 |
| popey | I usually just install MSE | 09:43 |
| dwatkins | I tend to use AVG at home, we have McAffe at work. | 09:43 |
| popey | my Windows (gaming) install only has MSE | 09:43 |
| MooDoo | daftykins: I used bit defender. | 09:43 |
| dwatkins | ah yes, MSE, I used to install AVG | 09:43 |
| MooDoo | but the last AV which wasn't that, was packages with something that hijacks your browser | 09:43 |
| popey | i stopped using AVG when they used to make it actively hard to upgrade | 09:44 |
| MooDoo | and added things to the registry | 09:44 |
| dwatkins | yeah, double plus ungood | 09:44 |
| dwatkins | I don't tend to install a lot on my Windows machine at home apart from via Steam. | 09:44 |
| foobarry | whats the chance i'll hose this machien by powering off during update 1 of 2? | 09:44 |
| dwatkins | foobarry: fairly high | 09:44 |
| foobarry | no idea what its doing | 09:45 |
| MooDoo | I dual boot my laptop for 3 things, minecraft [for my son], photoshop and light room, other than that it's always in ubuntu | 09:45 |
| dwatkins | how long has it been sat there and is there disk activity, foobarry? | 09:45 |
| foobarry | 10 mins, yes disk tinkle | 09:45 |
| dwatkins | hmm, might still be installing it then - assuming it's in single-user mode | 09:45 |
| foobarry | have a very low trust threshold with win | 09:45 |
| dwatkins | likewise, especially after the Windows 8.1 update hosed my graphics driver and left me with a blank screen at boot-time | 09:46 |
| jussi | sad story of the day: I made coffee. I went to do other stuff. I forgot cofffee. I feel bad. | 09:46 |
| MooDoo | dwatkins: i will admit that the 8.1 update took hours. | 09:46 |
| foobarry | i only booted into windows to run easybcd because boot-repair didn't work under linux | 09:47 |
| dwatkins | jussi: http://www.amazon.co.uk/USB-Cup-Warmer-Port-Hub/dp/B0009VEL1O | 09:47 |
| dwatkins | MooDoo: I let mine complete (it also took a very long time) but it overwrote the NVidia driver and I had to do a safe boot to be able to see the output | 09:47 |
| jussi | dwatkins: yuck. old coffee | 09:47 |
| MooDoo | dwatkins: stupid computers.... | 09:47 |
| dwatkins | yeah, I was only kidding - I'd never get something like that for many reasons | 09:47 |
| dwatkins | don't forget you can power a BBQ off USB... http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2006/08/bbq0608152132_009.jpg | 09:48 |
| foobarry | screen gone black | 09:48 |
| dwatkins | drum roll | 09:48 |
| foobarry | shift key | 09:49 |
| foobarry | installing 1 or 2 | 09:49 |
| foobarry | arrrgh | 09:49 |
| foobarry | just a little verbose window would be nice | 09:49 |
| foobarry | doesn't even say what patch its doing | 09:49 |
| DJones | MooDoo: Why dual boot for minecraft? It plays well on Ubuntu for me | 09:49 |
| dwatkins | 1 of 2, clearly.... | 09:49 |
| * dwatkins ducks | 09:49 | |
| MooDoo | DJones: correct, it's just where i have minecraft installed :D laziness forbids me to move it to my ubuntu partition | 09:50 |
| MooDoo | ;) | 09:50 |
| DJones | Ah that would be a good reason | 09:50 |
| jussi | dwatkins: that bbq is just.... wrong | 09:50 |
| dwatkins | jussi: yep | 09:50 |
| dwatkins | I'm tempted to Hackintosh my desktop at home, but I suspect its gfx performance won't be as good as with a "supported" OS. | 09:51 |
| jussi | hackintosh... | 09:52 |
| jussi | the thing that got me into open source :D | 09:52 |
| foobarry | lol | 09:52 |
| foobarry | irony | 09:52 |
| dwatkins | Windows 95 got me in to open source, as you couldn't really do anything interesting with it. | 09:54 |
| jussi | foobarry: yeah. I played with hackintosh a bit and the my little brother said " why dont you try ubuntu". the rest, as they say, is history | 09:54 |
| shauno | 95 got me into opensource because my computer wouldn't run it. and I wanted new toys too. | 09:54 |
| dwatkins | this PC (486 DX/2 66) came with Win 3.11. | 09:54 |
| dwatkins | *that PC - I'm not still using it | 09:54 |
| jussi | this was in 2006 when Hackintosh first came out | 09:55 |
| foobarry | wow. installing 2 of 2 | 09:55 |
| shauno | this was an sx16 /w 3mb. it ran slack, but not '95. so when everyone else got new toys, so did I | 09:55 |
| dwatkins | I wanted to get a 286 laptop and run linux on it. | 09:57 |
| shauno | lol, no you don't. laptop not being absolute pants on laptops is a surprisingly recent move :/ | 09:58 |
| shauno | I had it on a 486 lappy and it was horrid | 09:59 |
| dwatkins | I first ran Slackware on my 486; I think it had 32 MB RAM originally. | 09:59 |
| shauno | it managed power the same way a 17yo manages alcohol | 09:59 |
| MartijnVdS | shauno: it goes out as often as it goes in? | 09:59 |
| shauno | it'd suspend to disk, but not resume from same :| | 10:00 |
| JamesTait | Good morning all! Happy Friday, and happy Something On A Stick Day! :-D | 10:00 |
| MartijnVdS | JamesTait: corndog day? | 10:01 |
| JamesTait | MartijnVdS, if that takes your fancy. :) | 10:01 |
| MooDoo | marshmallows over a fire | 10:02 |
| foobarry | moon on a stick? | 10:02 |
| dwatkins | I have some videos on my stick and some software installers. | 10:02 |
| JamesTait | MooDoo, yum! | 10:02 |
| JamesTait | foobarry, now that one I'm used to. | 10:03 |
| MooDoo | I know it's only 10am, but can I go home now please? | 10:08 |
| dwatkins | yes | 10:08 |
| MooDoo | dwatkins: why thank you, I'll tell my boss irc said I could go home :D | 10:09 |
| shauno | if he asks, just explain that 'something on a stick day' is a national holiday | 10:09 |
| foobarry | now installing 10 of 12 ..what the heck | 10:11 |
| foobarry | iterative updates. it did 160 yesterday | 10:11 |
| === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte | ||
| popey | yeah, non cumulative updates suck | 10:15 |
| popey | used to have that in SAP land.. you had to install each patch incrementally, and there could be hundreds, and you had to do them in a very specific sequence | 10:15 |
| popey | manually | 10:15 |
| popey | one reason it paid well I guess, you had to know the voodoo ☻ | 10:16 |
| MartijnVdS | sounds like a great way to keep people employed | 10:16 |
| popey | indeed | 10:16 |
| diplo | popey: My friend does it for a big company in london, uses PowerShell now to load a csv to do it in the correct order | 10:16 |
| popey | they eventually added an update tool which went off to their website to find out what sequence to do them in and would queue them in that order | 10:16 |
| MooDoo | until they get fedup and leave :S | 10:16 |
| popey | when sap paid decently, it made it very easy to justify staying | 10:17 |
| MooDoo | would you ever go back to SAP popey ? | 10:17 |
| popey | i ask myself that now and then | 10:18 |
| popey | been out of it for 2.5 years so some of my knowledge will be out of date | 10:18 |
| popey | and its not fun ☻ | 10:18 |
| popey | so only if I lost my job at canonical for whatever reason and couldn't find something else in this industry | 10:18 |
| MooDoo | fingers crossed you enjoy your job at canonical for years to come then | 10:19 |
| shauno | is 2.5yrs long enough to forget why you ran away screaming? | 10:19 |
| brobostigon | morning boys and girls. | 10:20 |
| MooDoo | morning brobostigon | 10:20 |
| brobostigon | morning MooDoo | 10:21 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | popey: there's loads of opportunities in OSS now. One of my mates used to work at Microsoft, then Oracle (Sales roles). I kept talking to him about FOSS and he was quite sceptical. He now works for Datastax selling Cassandra and open source big data stuuf. Loves it and thinks proprietary s/w is now a dinosaur model... | 10:22 |
| popey | shauno: haha | 10:22 |
| popey | TheOpenSourcerer: good to hear | 10:22 |
| MooDoo | shauno: let's grep the ubuntu-uk logs to see how many times we can see popey scream ;) | 10:23 |
| MooDoo | shauno: no screaming on brobostigon stats - http://taylorworld.me.uk/ubuntu-uk.html ;) | 10:25 |
| MooDoo | yay 18th most active nick, czajkowski is now my next target | 10:26 |
| brobostigon | :) | 10:26 |
| czajkowski | eh | 10:26 |
| MooDoo | czajkowski: hehe don't worry, just looking at the ubuntu-uk stats on brobostigon page, your the 17th most active nick | 10:27 |
| brobostigon | i am happy someones using it. | 10:27 |
| czajkowski | really | 10:27 |
| czajkowski | I'm rather quiet in lately | 10:27 |
| czajkowski | that whole work thing | 10:27 |
| czajkowski | however | 10:27 |
| czajkowski | TheOpenSourcerer: did you see we're 6 nations champions :D | 10:27 |
| MooDoo | czajkowski: yes i can see you were last active 8 days ago :D | 10:27 |
| MooDoo | czajkowski: only just | 10:27 |
| MooDoo | czajkowski: if that french plonker hadn't passed the ball forward you wouldn't have been :p | 10:28 |
| * MooDoo sulks | 10:28 | |
| TheOpenSourcerer | czajkowski: Hi. | 10:28 |
| jussi | hehe | 10:28 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | It was a brilliant tournament. I though Ireland deserved it just so O'driscoll can go out smiling | 10:29 |
| MooDoo | I think everyone saw how much he was smiling :D | 10:29 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | We played the best rugby. France were very lucky in the first game with 2 very fortuitous bounces. | 10:29 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | But England look very good for next year ;-) | 10:30 |
| foobarry | in grub2, where is the file i edit to remove superfluous entries in grub menu? | 10:30 |
| czajkowski | TheOpenSourcerer: they do | 10:30 |
| MooDoo | I shall be looking forward to the tornament. | 10:30 |
| czajkowski | It was a good season, and yes as much as a I'm not a fan of BOD he did deserve to go out smiling | 10:30 |
| MooDoo | lets setup ##ubuntu-uk-rugby so we can rant ;) | 10:30 |
| czajkowski | we shall have to do another ubuntu uk rugby day out | 10:30 |
| MooDoo | +1 | 10:30 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | That is a fine idea | 10:31 |
| czajkowski | looking forward to RAT though this year | 10:32 |
| czajkowski | lets hope I can make it | 10:32 |
| MooDoo | I'm tempted with that too | 10:33 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Ticket for the RAT booked. Better get on it. You can always sell it later if you can;t make it. | 10:34 |
| Laney | there's a RAT in mi kitchen | 10:34 |
| dwatkins | what am I gonna do? | 10:34 |
| czajkowski | TheOpenSourcerer: Jon already booked them, I just need to make sure I'm not travelling | 10:35 |
| czajkowski | will be living at an airport in May | 10:35 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | lol | 10:35 |
| czajkowski | July is currently empty so far | 10:35 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | I used to do that. Glad I don't any more. Enjoyed the airmiles and whatnot but had enough of it now. | 10:36 |
| MooDoo | TheOpenSourcerer: damn you....booked | 10:36 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | lol | 10:36 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Just registered on the RWC site for news about ticketing. Would love to go to at least one game next year. | 10:37 |
| directhex | moop | 10:38 |
| MooDoo | TheOpenSourcerer: I signed up for volunteering, it's such a tedious process lol | 10:38 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Ah, good idea MooDoo | 10:38 |
| popey | directhex: done 811.0 MB Rate: 0.0 / 0.0 KB Uploaded: 36771.6 MB [ R: 45.34] | 10:39 |
| directhex | i should prep a 96plus1, but i've been so busy :/ | 10:41 |
| jussi | yay, ramen for lunch again | 10:43 |
| jussi | "Eastern Style Pork" | 10:44 |
| jussi | oh, and "shallots" are weirdly named. | 10:45 |
| MooDoo | TheOpenSourcerer: do people book b&b's for this rat ? so I can prepare, it's long drive for me :D | 10:45 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Dunno - I can walk to the Farnham -> Alton train in 40mins from my house. | 10:46 |
| MooDoo | lol don't know why I asked, i'll sort it out | 10:47 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | The Mulberry has rooms and is close to Farnham Station | 10:47 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Or, if you want a NSFW kind of stay try "Hotel de Ville" lol. | 10:47 |
| MooDoo | ah there are premier inns about :D | 10:48 |
| jussi | hey popey, mr "crowdfunded stuff" guy, what do you think of this? https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/107750026/new-compact-step-driven-vehicle-its-your-move | 10:57 |
| MooDoo | TheOpenSourcerer: I was looking at the crown in alton :D | 10:58 |
| popey | i got added to a list on twitter called "Experts on crowdfunding" | 10:58 |
| popey | which made me lol a bit | 10:58 |
| jussi | popey: hehe | 11:00 |
| popey | hah, those look hilarious | 11:00 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | MooDoo: Depends on when you plan to arrive. Quite a few of us will come from Farnham so it might be better to stop here and meet up for a pre-RAT beer or two and possibly a post-RAT curry ;-) | 11:00 |
| jussi | TheOpenSourcerer: wait... so you are going to have a pre-beer train beer? :D | 11:01 |
| MooDoo | TheOpenSourcerer: I'll be driving down on the sat, probably morning, just looking for somewhere to stay the sat night so I can drive back sunday :D | 11:01 |
| popey | i like the photo of him pulling it along by the front wheel | 11:01 |
| popey | like you'd want to do that after riding through dog shit | 11:02 |
| MooDoo | TheOpenSourcerer: Farnham is it then :D | 11:02 |
| MooDoo | lol | 11:02 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | MooDoo: Yeah - I'd stop in Farnham then. I'd be more than happy to meet up for a pre-beer train beer ;-) | 11:02 |
| MooDoo | TheOpenSourcerer: you sir are on :) bring chillies ;) lol | 11:02 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | I don't know anyone who actually lives in Alton - lol | 11:02 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Oooh - I might just have some by then too. | 11:02 |
| Laney | Ah, finding a cheeky packet of tangfastics downstairs | 11:03 |
| Laney | excellent | 11:03 |
| bigcalm | Good morning peeps :) | 11:03 |
| MooDoo | Laney: ouch they make my tabs laugh | 11:03 |
| bigcalm | Aren't I just? | 11:03 |
| MooDoo | morning bigcalm | 11:03 |
| Laney | tabs?!?!?! | 11:03 |
| MooDoo | Laney: never heard that before? | 11:03 |
| Laney | probably not in this context | 11:04 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | Take a look at the end of this Album MooDoo: https://plus.google.com/photos/104060033182234025482/albums/5975387695779422977 Some if this year's chilli plants | 11:04 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | s/if/of | 11:05 |
| jussi | will someone buy me a bottle of red wine... i so feel like wine right now | 11:05 |
| MooDoo | TheOpenSourcerer: coming along quite nicely i see | 11:05 |
| TheOpenSourcerer | :-D | 11:05 |
| foobarry | jussi: red grape juice | 11:06 |
| jussi | foobarry: red grape juice + alcohol | 11:06 |
| awilkins | partially digested red grape juice + yeast-pee-pee | 11:58 |
| popey | finally! http://torrentfreak.com/uk-dvd-cd-ripping-will-legalized-summer-14032 | 12:00 |
| Laney | now i can unleash all that pent up ripping i've been holding off on because it wasn't legal :-) | 12:00 |
| MartijnVdS | 8-) | 12:01 |
| MooDoo | really? wow I always thought it was legal for your own copy....oooops | 12:06 |
| brobostigon | quick poll, does anyone think there is space in the market, for well designed dating site, specificlly for aspies? | 12:12 |
| MartijnVdS | arent there already tons of them? | 12:13 |
| brobostigon | no, | 12:13 |
| MooDoo | there are but not as he said, specifically to aspies. | 12:13 |
| MooDoo | you're probably asking the wrong people. | 12:14 |
| brobostigon | who as i know from experience, need axtra help, and crucially the site it self need to be designed differently. | 12:14 |
| MartijnVdS | you'll have to make sure you don't get 4channers or similar though | 12:14 |
| MartijnVdS | that would *kill* a site like that | 12:14 |
| MooDoo | brobostigon: do you know any? or belong to a group that you could probably ask? | 12:14 |
| brobostigon | MooDoo: yes, and yes. | 12:15 |
| brobostigon | MartijnVdS: definatly. | 12:15 |
| MooDoo | brobostigon: might be a good marketing thing for them then :D | 12:15 |
| brobostigon | MooDoo: maybe, yes, | 12:16 |
| bashrc | does aspies mean Asperger's syndrome? | 12:17 |
| brobostigon | bashrc: yes. | 12:17 |
| bashrc | I imagine the proportion of the population which has that is very small, but it could be a niche market | 12:17 |
| brobostigon | last census, if memory serves, its about 3/4 million in the uk. | 12:18 |
| bashrc | that's more than I was expecting | 12:19 |
| brobostigon | thats those that are officiallly diagnosed. | 12:19 |
| popey | is that ¾ million or three to four million? | 12:19 |
| bashrc | I don't know much about it, other than that it's an autism type thing | 12:19 |
| MooDoo | brobostigon: just doing a seach shows you there are a few at the moment already | 12:19 |
| === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away | ||
| brobostigon | popey: the former. | 12:20 |
| popey | brobostigon: is the goal for aspies to meet non-aspies, or non-aspies to meet aspies or aspies to meet aspies? | 12:20 |
| brobostigon | MooDoo: most i see, are simply very badly designed, and not helpful. | 12:20 |
| brobostigon | popey: mostly the latter, but all those being a possibility, in my mind, | 12:21 |
| bashrc | I have tried dating sites, but they all seemed dreadful | 12:21 |
| brobostigon | exactly bashrc | 12:21 |
| brobostigon | this is why i said, crucially the design has to be so much better. | 12:21 |
| MooDoo | brobostigon: so why not knock something up then get your friends/group to review the site, might give you an idea about what's good/bad about it. | 12:22 |
| bashrc | A site where prospective couples did something together would be better than trying to match supposed personality characteristics | 12:23 |
| brobostigon | MooDoo: yes, ceretainly, i have already been doing a few design ideas on paper. | 12:23 |
| brobostigon | bashrc: maybe both those things, can be combined together? | 12:24 |
| brobostigon | bashrc: but i dont want to do, personality matching, that for people to work out themselves. | 12:24 |
| brobostigon | in the traditional sense. | 12:25 |
| bashrc | filling out long questionares is indeed boring | 12:26 |
| brobostigon | and most people loose patence, and eventually stop filling something in properly, once thats kicks in. | 12:28 |
| bashrc | Ubuntu Touch dating app for geeks? | 12:28 |
| brobostigon | html5, so works on any platform, not just ubuntu. | 12:29 |

| foobarry | great, now i wanna play tomb raider | 13:09 |
| foobarry | brobostigon: not only dating but social networking in a way that lets u meet new people/aspies | 13:16 |
| foobarry | so it could have 2 elements to it | 13:16 |
| brobostigon | yes. | 13:17 |
| foobarry | since aspies might not want the classic first date | 13:17 |
| foobarry | but get to know each other virtually first | 13:17 |
| brobostigon | exactly. | 13:17 |
| brobostigon | yep. | 13:17 |
| foobarry | isn't there a popular aspie freenode chan? | 13:19 |
| foobarry | wrongplanet or something? | 13:19 |
| brobostigon | popular, yes, useful and helpful, thats up for debate. | 13:20 |
| foobarry | male/female ratio? | 13:20 |
| brobostigon | its about 10/1 within asd generally. | 13:21 |
| foobarry | or should i say does the male female ratio also reflect male-female aspies, since most aspies i know are male and female ones have different traits to men and are actually more sociable | 13:21 |
| foobarry | now you need a cool name | 13:26 |

| brobostigon | i just need to work out basic design and features now, and how to design it. | 13:27 |
| bigcalm | I would have thought that was for people who want to have a cry | 13:27 |
| MartijnVdS | foobarry: nah that discounts same-sex relationships | 13:27 |
| foobarry | MartijnVdS: the lesbian couple a few doors down from me refers to her partner as her husband | 13:28 |
| * foobarry was not serious suggestion | 13:28 | |
| brobostigon | i could use something like drupal to make my life easier, then use jabber as the backend for the chat side. | 13:36 |
| MattJ | Jabber \o/ | 13:36 |
| brobostigon | xmpp* | 13:36 |
| MattJ | XMPP \o/ | 13:36 |
| brobostigon | lol | 13:36 |
| MattJ | I'm lacking context, but for XMPP chat in web apps both https://conversejs.org/ and https://mini.jappix.com/ are good options | 13:38 |
| brobostigon | ty, | 13:39 |
| MattJ | or for more of a full-page groupchat style, Candy: https://candy-chat.github.io/candy/ | 13:40 |

| MartijnVdS | even my remote uses it | 14:07 |

| MattJ | :) | 14:07 |
| MartijnVdS | bashrc: https://github.com/jterrace/pyharmony/blob/master/PROTOCOL.md | 14:07 |

| ali1234 | well i lived in manchester for like 10 years | 15:29 |
| ali1234 | met more rude people in london in about 10 days | 15:29 |
| mapp | but yea thats one persons experience | 15:30 |
| mapp | hard to reliably measure something like that really | 15:30 |
| mapp | this bbc death row series is quite interesting | 15:30 |
| foobarry | east london is the most rude place i ever been to | 15:57 |

| awilkins | Would it be insane to make a VFS layer for dconf? | 16:42 |
| awilkins | Like the VFS layer that Powershell has for the Windows Registry | 16:42 |
| awilkins | Then you could hack around with dconf settings using normal file system tools | 16:42 |
| awilkins | Just thinking of cases where there is a setting you wish to manipulate but there is no (no-generic) GUI to manipulate it | 16:43 |
| daftykins | wow, Lenovo refuse to sell to the Channel Islands | 17:27 |

| brobostigon | ah. | 17:28 |
| daftykins | gonna pick up a mini DP to HDMI adapter as well so he can hook it up on his boat, but of course that's more mainstream an accessory i can obtain elsewhere | 17:29 |

| * bigcalm blames popey | 18:50 | |
| daftykins | ;) | 18:51 |
| daftykins | a local affair or a chain? | 18:51 |
| bigcalm | We don't have any independent pizza places near by. Places that do do pizza are all the same and mostly base :( | 18:52 |
| bigcalm | So will likely drive to pizzahut or dominos | 18:52 |
| * bigcalm looks at the cheese burger pizza in bewilderment | 19:01 | |
| daftykins | i remember being horrified at how much dominoes costs | 19:02 |

| ali1234 | a good quality web cam will serve you better than a cheap camcorder if you want to make youtube videos - and also be cheaper | 21:48 |

| dwatkins | no surprise, I think I know one or two people who use bing | 23:43 |
| diddledan | I think they must be the blip from 2009 | 23:43 |
| dwatkins | is that the numbers for people searching Google for 'yahoo', 'google' or 'bing', though? | 23:43 |

| Azelphur | does anyone know any decent video editors? I tried avidemux but it crashes reproducibly all the time. | 23:52 |
| Azelphur | I got bored of avidemux once I hit 3 bugs (2 of which are crash bugs) | 23:53 |
| ali1234 | blender | 23:56 |
| ali1234 | but it depends what you are trying to do | 23:57 |
| Azelphur | ali1234: cut, paste. That's literally all I need | 23:57 |
| ali1234 | blender is comparable to after effects... although far far harder to use | 23:58 |
| ali1234 | how many cuts do you want to make? | 23:58 |
| Azelphur | 1 xD | 23:58 |
| ali1234 | then you don't want a video editor | 23:58 |
| Azelphur | I could do it with ffmpeg in all honesty but ffmpeg doesn't seem to like the video file | 23:58 |
| ali1234 | just use ffmpeg/avconv | 23:58 |
| ali1234 | if ffmpeg doesn't like the video then no video editor will play it either | 23:58 |
| ali1234 | convert it first | 23:58 |
| ali1234 | they all use ffmpeg/libav internally anyway | 23:59 |
| Azelphur | all video players play it, it's a standard avi, ffmpeg has problems with things all the time where it refuses to convert things | 23:59 |
| ali1234 | there is no such thing as a standard avi | 23:59 |
| Azelphur | oh hey I got it to work, passed it -acodec copy and it was happier. | 23:59 |
