[12:10] <xoveruk> hi
[12:10] <xoveruk> is anyone using BT Internet?
[12:20] <BigRedS> Not this minute but I have it at home
[13:21] <xoveruk> BigRedS: Do you have any idea how to remove the BTFON network?
[13:22] <xoveruk> BigRedS: It appears that it was activated without my authorization and ever since I have been unable to get it removed by calling their support centre. There are of course no options on the router to disable it.
[13:23] <Myrtti> I can see why you might want to remove it... but... https://www.btfon.com/ ♥
[13:23] <xoveruk> Myrtti: What am I looking at?
[13:24] <Myrtti> xoveruk: I actually have bought several standalone Fons just to get the world wide wifi for free
[13:24] <Myrtti> I've got two new ones coming in Wednesday
[13:25] <Myrtti> https://www.bt.com/wifi/secure/status.do?s_cid=con_FURL_btfon/status
[13:25] <xoveruk> That status thing does not work for me because I never opted in.
[13:26] <xoveruk> I have informed them to disable it on my router and now they claim it takes 20 days to deactive.
[13:26] <popey> I ♥ fon
[13:26] <penguin42> Myrtti: You say standalone fon's - can you do that in the UK for non-BT users?
[13:27] <Myrtti> yup
[13:27] <Myrtti> technically atleast
[13:28] <penguin42> how much does it cost?
[13:29] <Myrtti> https://shop.fon.com/en/products/all
[13:30] <Myrtti> or https://www.gramofon.com/
[13:31] <penguin42> it asks me the country, it doesn't allow uk, england or Geramny, but if I tell it I'm in France it gives me a nice English page telling me it's 39E
[13:31] <penguin42> ^Geramny^Germany
[13:32] <zmoylan-pi> maybe it's under blighty? :-)
[13:32] <penguin42> hehe
[13:32] <penguin42> and then if I ask it to find a Fon spot it centers it on Madrid; go figure
[13:33]  * zmoylan-pi has fun in ireland finding ireland in drop down lists.  ireland, republic of ireland, eire, hibernia and one northern ireland site irish free state :-p
[13:34] <penguin42> https://corp.fon.com/en/maps  is fun - you can see all the individual users I think and see basically population density
[13:36] <penguin42> curious distribution; mainly europe, japan, with a few other scattered bits
[13:36] <Myrtti> https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/fon/gramofon-modern-cloud-jukebox I participated early
[13:36] <zmoylan-pi> frequency based?
[13:36] <shauno> zmoylan-pi: it's not much more fun trying to pick out uk/gb/britain/england/etc
[13:39] <zmoylan-pi> and i'm also a fan of alphabetical lists with 1-2 locations not in alphabetical order at the top.  makes my ocd so happy that does :-)
[13:40] <shauno> http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/massive-sinkhole-appears-county-durham-england-1462367  is it just me, or is the photo they're using for that .. China?
[13:41] <zmoylan-pi> just how deep is it?!?!
[13:46] <popey> do people actually call it County Durham
[13:47] <popey> http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2732531/Terrifying-sinkhole-100ft-wide-appears-overnight-Pennines-s-deep-t-bottom.html is the actual picture
[13:48] <shauno> why wouldn't they?  that's it's name
[13:49] <popey> not ime
[13:49] <popey> in .ie they tend to say "County N" in England we mostly say "N County"
[13:50] <shauno> right, but this one is actually named county durham
[13:50] <zmoylan-pi> well in ireland a few of the counties also have towns cities named the same thing so it prefixes which we mean.  hiberno english thing
[13:51] <popey> just sounded wierd
[13:52] <popey> Myrtti: does that gramophon have an API?
[13:53] <popey> (I mean, for devices, so you're not tied to whatever app they make)
[13:54] <shauno> wiki does mention it's the only county in england named the wrong way around.  so I can see why it'd sound weird.  if it was dahn saff it'd be durhamshire instead :)
[13:55] <Myrtti> popey: no idea.
[13:55] <zmoylan-pi> i saw an article over weekend talking about how we would say big red barn and not red big barn as the seond one sounds 'wrong'
[13:55] <popey> heh, yeah, it does.
[13:56] <zmoylan-pi> we chose the wrong way because it sounds 'better'
[13:57] <zmoylan-pi> and when people discuss how awkward the english language can be i always link to this list :-) http://www.livhambrett.com/2013/10/30/the-bandage-was-wound-around-the-wound/
[13:57] <shauno> I gotta say, sticking "galway, county galway" on addresses always feels wrong too.  it feels like I might as well just answer "yes" to county
[13:58] <zmoylan-pi> galway is a big county
[13:58] <foobarry> arggh.
[13:58] <foobarry> why has the chromecast button disappeared from the plex app
[14:00] <Myrtti> because chromecast.
[14:00] <foobarry> and because plex
[14:01] <Myrtti> mainly because chromecast.
[14:01] <foobarry> this is the plex.tv app launched from chrome on laptop
[14:02] <foobarry> wokring now
[14:05] <foobarry> restart everything :S
[14:33] <foobarry_> and freenode :P
[14:34] <shauno> foobarry_: we're blaming that one on you :)
[14:37] <foobarry_> thats ok
[14:37]  * foobarry_ 
[14:39] <shauno> I wish I'd read the instructions before buying this.  I didn't realise it involved soldering new headers to the motherboard :/
[14:40] <penguin42> shauno: For what?
[14:41] <shauno> trying to add a usb mouse port to my amiga
[14:42] <foobarry> i threw away a amiga mouse not long ago
[14:42] <shauno> oh I have mice for it.  but they all have balls.  nostalgia does not stretch as far as de-gunking mouse balls
[14:44]  * penguin42 would have thought it would be a USB converter thing to plugin to do that
[14:45] <shauno> there's an inline one that looks like a dongle, but it's very, very picky about which mice it works with
[14:48]  * penguin42 wonders why
[14:49] <foobarry> alcohol and cotton buds
[14:51] <shauno> it's supposed to just be any mouse that is ps/2 capable (but usb-plugged).  in reality it seems to work best with beige-era msft intellimouse
[14:53] <shauno> back from the days when you'd pretty much expect a usb mouse to come with a little green ps/2 adaptor
[14:56] <zmoylan-pi> which never worked
[14:57] <shauno> hm.  make that a soldering iron and a small saw.  I'm starting to get nervous :/
[16:20] <darrenr> hey
[16:51] <diddledan> *yawn*
[16:54] <penguin42> exactly
[17:06] <foobarry> wettest day ever
[17:07] <zmoylan-pi> nah, we had one day last year where we got a months rain in one day, broke all the records in ireland which as you can imagine was pretty nasty :-)
[17:09] <foobarry> yeah, not in volume but in incessant dreary rain from morning till niht
[17:09] <foobarry> no let off all day
[17:10] <penguin42> I don't think it's rained here yet, which means I should have gone out
[17:19] <DJones> I had to laugh at the BBC website a couple of days ago, one one page they had torrential rain predictions for the public holiday, on a 2nd page they had goverment/health & safety calls to pre-cook BBQ food to avoid food poisoning
[19:30] <BigRedS> 
[20:01] <ali1234> i was playing xcom earlier and got a mission in manchester. and in the map it was raining.
[20:01] <ali1234> never seen rain in any other mission
[20:01] <ali1234> wondering if it was intentional
[20:06] <MartijnVdS> probably
