[10:36] 75 million so far i think like wtf [10:36] in theory, the motor neuron disease association, and their international equiavlents [10:36] cancer foobarry [10:36] what is ALS?

The Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster is a cocktail. All the same, I'll probably buy one." [11:14] heh [11:18] or the galactically known gin and tonix variant [11:22] zaphod's just this guy, you know? [11:39] * zmoylan-pi waves hands over sub-etha radio to change the station [11:48] i bought a kindle book that was on offer yesterday for £0.99. then later on i received a £1 credit for amazon music because of a qualifying purchase :S [11:48] nice [11:49] 1p short of giving them a piece of your mind :-) [11:51] foobarry: I can do better than that, I use one of the android apps that searchs for free books on Amazon, got one a day or so back for £0.00 and also got the £1 credit for digital music [11:58] \o/ [11:58] was the book any good? [12:00] Looked ok to me [12:01] I can give it a try anyway, not lost anything if its no good [12:02] amazon will be recommending you the weirdest stuff because of your previous 'purchases'? :-) [12:02] you can delete them from history [12:02] it's even if you looked at them [12:03] i got recommended bras for ages after looking at a completely unrelated item [12:03] and the hour or two you looked through the recommended bras they sent? :-) [12:04] DJones: what app is that? [12:05] popey: Let me find it, there's one for kindle & one for kobo books [12:06] ace [12:06] https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kindook.bookofday&hl=en [12:06] odd, it refused to install [12:06] https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Book%20Monk&hl=en Is the developers of it, a lot of romance books, but occasionally some decent scifi [12:06] i sent it from there to my n7 [12:07] "could not be downloaded due to an error. (941) [12:07] Maybe thinks the link was specific to my play account, perhaps try from the 2nd link [12:07] no, it isnt [12:07] i can see it in the store on my device but it wont install [12:08] I've just done the Kindle UK freebooks app & thats installed ok for me [12:08] nope [12:08] that one fails too [12:08] Strange, mine is installed on a N7 (2013) model [12:09] http://techknowzone.com/how-to-solve-fix-error-code-941-google-play-store/ [12:09] *boggle* [12:10] ah, i think the internal storage is full [12:10] 576MB free [12:10] I wouldn't have thought it was that big an app [12:11] hah, clear cache as freeed up 2.3G!

[12:35] not sure if thats a deal breaker [12:36] got a message from bayer saying paypal are taking 72 hrs to clear funds atm [12:37] so the money is 'just resting in their account'? [12:37] sounds like it [12:39] considering i paid on credit card, there is no such funds waiting to clear [12:40] "A nine year-old girl in the US has killed her shooting instructor by accident while being shown how to use a high-powered submachine gun." [12:42] an uzi! [12:42] a fully automatic uzi [12:42] from a place called bullets & burgers! [12:42] called the last stop ironically enough [12:42] #1-rated attraction in the whole of las vegas, according to tripadvisor! [12:43] fun for almost the entire family [12:43] we instruct 5yr olds [12:44] do you hand them automatic weapons? [13:59] * awilkins boggles at the idea of handing 9 yr olds automatic weapons [13:59] Air rifle? No problems. [14:00] When I was a kid we all wanted a Black Widow catapult, which is easily a lethal weapon [14:00] depends on the kid, i wouldn't hand nerf to some kids, they'd just use them to persecute cats birds [14:01] * zmoylan-pi remembers the blackwidows, always wanted one, never got one. i just made my own with wooden branch and rubber bands dennis the menace style [14:04] then later in school a good metal coat hanger did the job nicely [15:00] Ah the proper ~2mm steel ones, not a wire one [15:25] splitters!! [15:25] * diddledan loves when that happens - it's quite a rush [15:25] like when you get up too quick and nearly pass out === Myrtti_ is now known as Myrtti === Azelphur_ is now known as Azelphur === Seeker`_ is now known as Seeker` === Seeker` is now known as Guest65951 [17:59] black widow catapult pffff bowie knife [18:01] * zmoylan-pi must watch crocodile dundee again [18:02] ?e sharpens bread knife [18:02] [makes as much sense as "black widow catapult pffff bowie knife" ;) [18:03] * brobostigon is happy to say, his brother has beat him again, and he has another nephew. [18:04] brobostigon: hope the beating wasn't too violent [tho just a bit is ok] [18:04] \o/ a reason to go shopping for lego [18:04] SuperEngineer: haha [18:05] ...sorry folks - in a silly mood - just won a long, long battle to get Montague's Mount [on steam] fitting the screen it's wanted on :) [18:06] SuperEngineer: I was expecting something along the lines of cancer whenever I see the line just won a long battle...... [18:06] * brobostigon is the aspie of the family, and will never marry nor will he likely ever have children. [18:07] donate to a sperm bank? [18:07] Dave2: pesimist! [18:07] SuperEngineer: I'm so happy it was only software :) [18:08] software ills are always better than real life ones [says SuperEngineer with a torn shoulder muscle]! [18:09] * zmoylan-pi sees your torn shoulder muscle and raises you an artificial hip [18:09] ...but how else could I get home early to solve my game-play woes ;) [18:09] zmoylan-pi: ouch! [18:09] on the plus side, cyborg 0.1 beta [18:10] * zmoylan-pi just wishes that victorinox made an artificial hip, they'd shove some cool stuff in there :-) [18:13] a motion powered wireless phone charger :-) [18:19] * zmoylan-pi discovers that crocodile dundee didn't make it after last disk loss. time to dig out dvd for rerip [18:20] eughh eye strain sucks [18:30] arsen: so do vacuum cleaners however them sucking is a good thing ;) Sorry to hear about the eye though it is annoying [18:32] arsen - eye strain or time to visit othalmic optician? [18:33] *opthalmic [18:33] test your eyes on the charts from feckarse industries :-p [18:35] "nope, I can't see the 3rd row, or the secound, or the first actually - would you mind a lot if I turned the chair to face charts?" [18:42] ooo- just realised - I like the new blue Steam Launcher - and circular the notification icon [18:43] is being young Luke [18:46] * SuperEngineer wonders where that darn line break came from! [19:03] is there a difference between UK and EU keyboard layouts? [19:03] i want the new das keyboard 4 ultimate, but in UK form - hard to find :/ [19:03] *squint* [19:05] UK keyboards are slightly different [19:06] almost every EU country has its own keyboard [19:06] NL uses American layouts.. but French and German layouts are WEEEEIRD [19:06] hmph [19:06] french have azerty [19:09] and numbers that you have to press SHIFT for first === webpigeon_ is now known as webpigeon [19:13] MartijnVdS: but for some reason you think it is right to have a US layout in an EU Country :P [19:13] MartijnVdS: weirdos ;) [19:15] davmor2: I have a UK chromebook to compensate [19:15] davmor2: I don't think it's that different really.. I mean who uses ¬ [19:16] MartijnVdS: popey for his silly ascii art big letters [19:17] davmor2: Weirdo [19:18] trying to figure out if "EU" means UK on the DAS keyboard 4. as i can only find it listed as EU on amazon, not UK. [20:00] arsen i bought from getdigital.de when i got mine, years ago [20:00] :) [20:26] I thought das keyboard had no key markings? [20:28] so it should just be ansi vs iso - tall enter key (eu/iso) vs no key between lshift & Z (us/ansi) [20:28] some of them do [20:35] I guess that's just the only context I can see an 'eu' layout making sense [20:39] daftykins - so you suspect DE = UK? therefore EU=UK? :o [20:50] arsen: nah they just sell UK ones :) [20:53] ah [21:27] Good morning peeps :) [21:28] morning [21:35] any wifi extender recommendations? [21:35] I have a WN3000RP which seems rubbish [21:36] This appears to work well for my parents: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00BMULADI [21:37] morning? o_O [21:38] arsen: UGT [21:40] bigcalm: any idea on the rage it gets? [21:40] wow, i'm going to have to google that timezone. [21:40] dogmatic69: enough to keep my parents happy :) [21:40] lol [21:40] okok. i get it :) [21:41] dogmatic69: I got that one to partly future proof them. They don't have 5GHz yet, but it's there for when they do [21:41] arsen: :) [21:41] I got 5g [21:41] \o/ [21:41] smarter response than my usual to when people quiz me for saying "morning" irrelevant of time. :) [21:41] Me too. Makes a huge difference [21:42] Must say that the 5ghz range is pants in my house, but the speed makes up for it [21:42] bigcalm: is there such a thing that would just use the same ssd? [21:43] none of the mobile devices we have can function efficiently on 2.4 anymore [21:43] dogmatic69: you can change the SSID to the same as your router [21:43] at least when at home [21:43] But do that as the very last step :) [21:43] bigcalm: it does not conflict? [21:44] dogmatic69: not tried it so I can't comment [21:44] k [21:44] 2.4 is so full there's about 5 ssids on any channel [21:44] It might very well just work :D [21:45] Looking at the Wifi Analyzer [sic] on my phone, my 5ghz network is the only one in range :) [21:49] i think half of my devices in my house don't yet support 5g :< [21:49] can't remember if it was my iphone or ipad, one of them sucked. [21:51] Just noticed that the chromecast is back up to 30 odd quid on Amazon. Making last week's purchase even more pleasing [21:51] id like to play with a chromecast to see if i actually would want one [22:03] i extended the range of my access point.. [22:03] ..by adding another access point [22:08] bigcalm: same ssd working so far :) [22:54] gog.com are going to do other things in addition to games - starting with movies from today [22:54] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZQL-8SDyi8 [22:59] what happened to their "like steam" thing? [22:59] galaxy? [22:59] dunno? [22:59] as far as I'm aware it's still planned? === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away
