| shauno | you're a furry? | 00:19 |
|---|---|---|
| daftykins | always had my suspicions | 00:20 |
| shauno | I'm just surprised - it'd be the most normal thing about him | 00:21 |
| diddledan | :-) | 00:21 |
| shauno | I've only just figured out that 'zero cool', sickboy and sherlock from elementary are the same person. "mind blown" as the internet goes | 00:22 |
| ali1234 | johnny lee miller? | 00:22 |
| shauno | yeah | 00:22 |
| ali1234 | remember back in the day when we didn't know what furry was, and http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/Amy_the_Squirrel was just cartoon mascot for the amiga? | 00:23 |
| ali1234 | we were so innocent back then | 00:24 |
| shauno | I'm not sure I can click on 'wikifur'. | 00:24 |
| ali1234 | don't worry, there are no pictures | 00:24 |
| shauno | ah. | 00:25 |
| daftykins | so some girl just squatted on my doorstep | 00:25 |
| daftykins | i open the door as i heard movement | 00:25 |
| daftykins | her bf comes back up, apologises and gives me £10 | 00:26 |
| daftykins | \o/ | 00:26 |
| diddledan | lmao | 00:26 |
| shauno | so this is why ireland forbids alcohol on good friday? | 00:26 |
| daftykins | do they? | 00:26 |
| shauno | yup | 00:26 |
| diddledan | but it's turdsday until I wake up in the morning/afternoon | 00:26 |
| shauno | I have a mediocre "squatting" story | 00:27 |
| shauno | the day before I moved to the US, I went out on the town with .. well, everyone. on the way home I relieved myself somewhere I probably shouldn't have | 00:27 |
| daftykins | wait, so IT WAS YOU! | 00:28 |
| shauno | mr "copper" stands right beside me while I finish up, and introduces himself. he gets my number (schawing!) and we go about our ways | 00:28 |
| daftykins | odd way of dating sir | 00:28 |
| daftykins | ;) | 00:28 |
| shauno | 24 hours later I'm on Delta out of heathrow, and forget all about it | 00:28 |
| diddledan | shauno: there's a similar story about one of the UK's most wanted criminals | 00:29 |
| shauno | eventually daddy#2 shows up to sell the house we move out of, and finds the mail. I have a notice to appear, a summons, a summary judgement on failure to appear .. | 00:29 |
| diddledan | we don't get much crime these days so peeing in the street is a somewhat of the most impressive of crimes | 00:29 |
| shauno | and to cap it off, it turns out the doorstep belongs to an ex | 00:30 |
| diddledan | lol | 00:30 |
| daftykins | LOL | 00:30 |
| daftykins | shauno: subconsciously you knew you had to do your business RIGHT there | 00:30 |
| shauno | possibly the strangest conversation ever was phoning transatlantic to explain to cumbria cty courts why I wasn't going to be appearing any time soon | 00:31 |
| daftykins | OI AM SHEEEEER-NO, OI AIN'T COMIN' | 00:32 |
| shauno | mostly just a silly story, until I moved back to europe. and the first time I visited the UK, I was genuinely nervous that the border were going to stop me because I had failure to appear against my name | 00:32 |
| ali1234 | happened to a friend of mine... for failure to pay TV license though | 00:34 |
| diddledan | shauno: you mean we actually let you back in? | 00:35 |
| daftykins | so me and the cat are playing charades, the clue is 'an activity' | 00:35 |
| daftykins | https://www.dropbox.com/s/x3h0sdkah33ahuo/IMG_20140418_013334.jpg | 00:35 |
| shauno | multiple times :) | 00:36 |
| daftykins | i've already guessed rowing | 00:36 |
| daftykins | and falling down a well | 00:36 |
| shauno | prostrate? your cat may be buddhist | 00:36 |
| daftykins | i feel silly, i'm unfamiliar with that word | 00:37 |
| shauno | 1) lying stretched out on the ground with one's face downwards. | 00:38 |
| diddledan | isn't that in a dude's bum? | 00:38 |
| shauno | " especially in reverence or submission." | 00:38 |
| shauno | that's prostate. the missing R is incredibly important | 00:38 |
| shauno | (see also: important vs impotent) | 00:39 |
| daftykins | lol. | 00:40 |
| shauno | eg, http://nickyloh.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Tibet0035.jpg they're wearing 'shoes' on their hands because the ascend the entire moutain in this position | 00:41 |
| daftykins | wellity wellity | 00:41 |
| shauno | strange strange day. I'm so glad I took tomorrow off (it's bring your child to work day. I had to) | 00:44 |
| daftykins | ah yes :D | 00:44 |
| daftykins | i'm off to England in the afternoon | 00:45 |
| daftykins | in fact i have a number of things to get sorted before i go, so i should really go to sleep right now | 00:45 |
| shauno | I found out today that my pay raise this year is 0%, because I had a disciplinary for being late too often | 00:45 |
| daftykins | :/ | 00:45 |
| daftykins | are we talking 5 minutes here and there? | 00:45 |
| shauno | despite the fact I kicked ass this year. I've brought in some huge clients. apple. microsoft, ericson, walmart, etc | 00:46 |
| shauno | 5 minutes way too often, up to an hour on exactly the wrong day, which set it off | 00:46 |
| daftykins | :( | 00:47 |
| daftykins | legit reason? | 00:47 |
| shauno | I've been told I can appeal it, but I'm torn between that, and acting like a 12yo and flipping the bird | 00:47 |
| shauno | no legit reason. I'm an insomniac. have been as long as I remember. 6am shifts are difficult | 00:48 |
| daftykins | damn yeah :S | 00:48 |
| daftykins | seems to be us three nightowls meet quite often | 00:49 |
| daftykins | i'm tempted to quote Macbeth i think it is by asking, since i'll be away for the weekend, "when shall we three meet again?" :D | 00:49 |
| shauno | just a weird one because I've had an abnormally strong year | 00:49 |
| daftykins | does seem like they should be lenient on such minor transgressions given that | 00:49 |
| daftykins | especially being so... school like about it | 00:50 |
| daftykins | have you spoken one on one with whoever's the decider? | 00:50 |
| shauno | I'm still thinking about that. I only found out today | 00:50 |
| daftykins | ah | 00:51 |
| daftykins | guess it depends on your relationship with them if it's worth a try or not | 00:51 |
| shauno | the 'problem' is our manager's manager. it's his training I was quite (almost an hour) late for. | 00:51 |
| daftykins | doh | 00:51 |
| shauno | and ... he's german. 'late' doesn't translate into german | 00:51 |
| daftykins | hehe | 00:51 |
| diddledan | I don't think they have an equivalent word | 00:52 |
| jpds | Oh, they do. | 00:52 |
| diddledan | jpds: insults aren't quite the same | 00:52 |
| shauno | 'dead' is probably the equivalent. if you think about it, 'late' and 'late and synomnym in english | 00:52 |
| jpds | "absolute Wahnsinn". | 00:53 |
| shauno | it's just a weird situation. especially since they already took 1/5th of my bonus for the same reason. and without tooting my own horn too much, I am the alpha nerd on the team | 00:54 |
| daftykins | :D | 00:55 |
| daftykins | shauno: hope it works out | 00:55 |
| daftykins | right i really have to go, have a good easter all \o | 00:56 |
| diddledan | nn | 00:56 |
| shauno | have a fun trip :) | 00:57 |
| daftykins | ty ^_^ | 00:58 |

| TheProphet[S] | Hi all | 08:59 |
| TheProphet[S] | I am trying to connect to my wireless network from recovery, but I can't get Dhcp to work. dhclient wlan0 - v just ends with no dhcpoffers received, no working leases in persistent database - sleeping | 09:02 |
| TheProphet[S] | Iwconfig shows I am connected to the network but there's no Internet connection | 09:08 |
| TheProphet[S] | Has anyone got any idea what the problem could be? I need the Internet to fix the installation | 09:13 |
| dwatkins | TheProphet[S]: does "iwconfig list" show the SSID of your access point? | 09:16 |
| TheProphet[S] | iwconfig wlan0 does yes | 09:18 |
| TheProphet[S] | dawkins: I can see the correct ssid and encryption key | 09:19 |
| dwatkins | I guess you could set the IP address manually, but it should be provided by the local DHCP server (assuming it's running etc.) | 09:19 |
| dwatkins | iirc, the key needs to be the hex equivalent of the passphrase, but I could be wrong about that | 09:21 |
| TheProphet[S] | Trying to ping Google Dns 8.8.8.8 it says host unreachable | 09:21 |
| dwatkins | have you manually configured your IP address, TheProphet[S]? | 09:21 |
| TheProphet[S] | No I haven't | 09:21 |
| dwatkins | if you know the network range, you could set the IP address by hand, but I suspect it's not connected successfully to your wifi because of the type of security | 09:22 |
| dwatkins | you might also have to stop networkmanager | 09:23 |
| AndChat|213761 | Sorry I'm back | 09:23 |
| TheProphet[S] | Hey dwatkins sorry I'm back now | 09:27 |
| TheProphet[S] | I should be able to ping an ip if I'm connected to the network right? | 09:28 |
| dwatkins | that depends on many things, TheProphet[S] - try pinging a local address first, such as your router | 09:28 |
| dvrr | Hi good morning everyone | 09:29 |
| brobostigon | morning boys and girls. | 09:31 |
| TheProphet[S] | Morning | 09:33 |
| TheProphet[S] | dwatkins even my router is unreachable sorry | 09:34 |
| TheProphet[S] | I thought I did things properly but it can't be | 09:35 |
| TheProphet[S] | I'm gonna try it again | 09:35 |
| TheProphet[S] | From recovery mode dropped to root shell and logged in as my user | 09:38 |
| TheProphet[S] | Remounted root fs to rw | 09:39 |
| TheProphet[S] | Ifconfig wlan0 up and iwconfig wlan0 essid... key... Done | 09:42 |
| TheProphet[S] | It's not just "key" right? I'm forgetting something | 09:44 |
| dwatkins | it depends on the format of key you're using | 09:45 |
| dwatkins | this might help, TheProphet[S] - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14119446/iwconfig-connect-network-via-wifi-on-terminal | 09:46 |
| TheProphet[S] | Thanks dwatkins I was reading that and it seems I need to use wpa-supplicant | 09:47 |
| dvrr | how to redirect all pages (website) to maintenance page | 10:08 |
| TheProphet[S] | dwatkins I managed to get it to work with wpa_supplicant thanks for your help | 10:15 |

| ahayzen_ | Hi, I'm trying to install ubuntu-restricted-extras and it wants to remove oxideqt-codecs is this ok to be removed? | 13:34 |
| brobostigon | !oxideqt-codecs | 13:35 |
| brobostigon | !info oxideqt-codecs | 13:36 |
| lubotu3 | Package oxideqt-codecs does not exist in saucy | 13:36 |
| ahayzen_ | brobostigon, i think it has come down with the new QML web browser that is installed by default? | 13:37 |
| brobostigon | which ubuntu version are you using? | 13:37 |
| ahayzen_ | brobostigon, trusty | 13:37 |
| brobostigon | !info oxideqt-codecs trusty | 13:37 |
| lubotu3 | oxideqt-codecs (source: oxide-qt): Web browser engine library for Qt (codecs). In component main, is extra. Version 1.0.0~bzr501-0ubuntu2 (trusty), package size 493 kB, installed size 2323 kB | 13:37 |
| brobostigon | nominally answers the question. | 13:38 |
| ahayzen_ | brobostigon, bit strange on a clean image u can't install ubuntu-restricted-extras without breaking the new web browser that is used for the webapps? | 13:39 |
| ahayzen_ | brobostigon, unless one of the packages in the restricted-extras will replace it? i see it wants to install things like oxideqt-codecs-extra | 13:40 |
| brobostigon | that would be a fair presumption. | 13:40 |
| ahayzen_ | brobostigon, this is what it wants to do http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7275721/ | 13:41 |
| ahayzen_ | it just looks much worse in USC when that dialog appears stating it is going to remove things lol | 13:42 |
| ahayzen_ | brobostigon, i'll take a punt and see what happens thanks for ur help | 13:43 |
| brobostigon | those nominally look like the right packages. | 13:43 |
