=== izdubar is now known as MarkDude [09:03] morning boys and girls. === MartijnV1S is now known as MartijnVdS [10:57] Hello. I need urgent help here. Anyone kind enough to assist me ? [11:04] well we cant do anything if you leave, :) [12:05] vroom vroom time! :) [15:19] morning [15:22] * penguin42 yawns at diddledan_ [15:23] hey [17:04] * DJones catches up with last nights Dr Who, When did the Tardis can upgrade so that it can go to exacty when and where its told to go to [17:44] * popey hasn't watched it yet [17:58] atleast the tardis console doesnt look like a bong anaymore. [17:59] hahaha [18:05] i made a little mash up of before and after pics from my accident [18:05] one is pretty graphic of my stitches, so don't click if you're squeamish [18:05] https://www.dropbox.com/s/sncjvrt3y1aocla/dafty.jpg?dl=0 [18:06] * popey is squeamish [18:06] * popey clicks anyway [18:07] I saw an Occulus Rift devkit in CEX at the weekend [18:07] it's low res so you're safe (: [18:07] was tempted [18:07] :O! v1? [18:07] the DK1 is a bit crap tbh === izdubar is now known as MarkDude [18:30] popey: I saw Google Glass [18:32] ʘ‿ಠ [18:32] in CEX!? [18:42] yes [18:42] look in their online thing they list a few [18:43] they're asking 995 for them [18:43] I was struggling to work out why you were surprisde to [18:43] see those at an international trade show, then the penny dropped === izdubar is now known as MarkDude [18:45] XD [18:45] moreati: There was supposedly some heavy restrictions in the agreement when buying them about resale, and it's also a bit odd to turn up in CEX [18:46] penguin42: I was reading CEX and thinking CES [18:46] ah [18:46] CEX is basically a shop that fences stolen goods so i don't see why they'd care about resale agreements [18:46] ali1234: Oh they're not as bad as some; they keep all the serial numbers logged [18:47] lol i'm too weak to slide my sash window shut, halp :( [18:50] did i mention that the oculus rift no longer works correctly in ubuntu? bug 1337641 [18:50] bug 1337641 in linux (Ubuntu) "Oculus Rift "drifts" on recent kernels" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1337641 [18:52] lol at BIOS update suggestion, seriously. [18:52] it's not the first time i've had that either [18:52] and it's never a useful suggestion [18:53] :/ [18:53] yeh that always get suggested - sigh [18:54] it's done by a script [18:54] ali1234: It's worth trying the upstream kernel ppa though to see if it's fixed before going further, it should only take a minute [18:55] yeah, i'll try it one day [18:56] there's only about three games that work with the oculus on linux [18:56] it's a curious bug to get a small rotation offset [18:57] it's down to the way head tracking works [18:57] what do they use - gyroscope? [18:58] it has multiple different methods [18:58] the kit I used back in '94 had a magnetic coil system (polhemus) [18:58] it uses the accelerometer/gyroscope to guess the approximate rotation [18:58] ie dead reckoning [18:58] and then it uses the compass to correct [18:59] the bug appears to make the compass not work, so it just relies on dead reckoning, which builds up error over time [18:59] http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00KQEJBSW/ [18:59] Amazon FireTV now available in the UK \o/ [18:59] just got to wait for it to be truly cracked wide open ;) [19:01] I don't want an amazon firetv 'cos it won't play googley play-doh purchases [19:04] it runs XBMC nicely :) === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte [19:26] hi [19:26] looks like Munich is going to give away lots of 12.04 cd's to help increase adoption, [19:26] :D [19:27] i replied to the tweet on this and asked why 12.04 when 14.04 is the latest LTS release [19:54] zleap: 12.04 has unity2d, 14.04 doesnt [19:55] ah ok [19:55] so is 12.04 better for people then [19:57] for some people it may be [19:58] ok [19:58] hmm [19:58] it would be cool if we could do something like that over here, but i don't think libraries would go with it [20:02] Just keep asking [20:03] ok [20:03] You never know- more likely are teaching areas- possibly schools [20:03] local library already does code club (well exeter) [20:03] and torbay librariesa re looking at it [20:03] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8Co37GO2Fc [20:03] maybe what is needed is to take a minimal ubuntu and add lots of coding programs to it [20:03] so its a ubuntu-developer spin [20:03] Best FOSS video I have seen in a while - Charlie ROCKS! [20:04] yes, make a developer spin already [20:04] do it [20:04] dev spins rock [20:04] #emfcamp [20:04] over in #xubuntu we were brainstorming random ideas [20:04] I am working on the docs for ToriOS which is a very minimal distribution based on ubuntu [20:05] one was to make a "extras" iso, with things like libreoffice, gimp, inkscape, devtools [20:05] this oculd be shared between all the different versions [20:05] yeah [20:05] once its finished, and out of beta / alpha then that is a good time to start on different spons [20:06] different spoons :D [20:06] it's never finished [20:06] out of interest if I took lubuntu minimal on a sd flash disk thing, and booted live and installed stuff it SHOULD keep the installed programs right, so in a way i can do the same thing that way [20:06] no idea [20:06] ok [20:06] i don't really understand how all this works [20:07] but a developer edition would be good and would tie in realy well with the curriculum [20:07] ali1234: whelp, this should be interesting [20:07] as there are also loads of e-books out there and even the ubuntu full circle special editions that could be included [20:07] I'm about to be officially on a Bitcoin salary [20:07] ohhh [20:08] when i boot back in to torios Livce later on i will see if scrot is still installed, if so my what i said would be the case [20:09] so i then take ubuntu mini and add stuff to it [20:09] then work out how to make an iso from that flash disk === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away [22:07] hetzner problems? [22:07] am i even connected? [22:07] ali1234: yup [22:08] i don't understand [22:10] ali1234: I'm having hetzner issues too [22:11] i'm connected to irc through our server [22:11] but i can't create any new connections at all [22:11] weird [22:11] ditto [22:12] I just lost connectivity and my website went down [22:12] yeah, same [22:12] it appears back up for me for now but I'm still getting alerts about services being down [22:13] unrelated but my company's servers in a pulsant datacentre in reading are also offline [22:33] my website is behaving like a yoyo right now [22:33] I'm surprised I've remained connected here [22:37] diddledan_: hi sir [22:40] ello [22:40] on the phone :-) [22:41] at this hour :o [22:43] yep same [22:43] it's on http://www.hetzner-status.de/en.html now [22:44] just seen a site fail to login that did a few mins ago, could be related [22:46] on the phone to hetzner? ;) [22:48] nope, pulsant :-) [22:48] boss comes first :-p [23:08] re: hetzner: The Problem should be fixed. Our current analyses of the issue showed that a core system in Falkenstein stopped forwarding traffic while still participating in Routing Protocol. We'll closely monitor the further behavior and will discus this matter with the manufacturer. [23:08] cool. it does indeed seem to be working okay now [23:09] yeah, I've not had any alerts for a wee while now [23:09] we just launched our new website today [23:09] and now everyone thinks it doesn't work [23:10] grr [23:13] you know, i'm pretty sure that router has been acting flaky for about a week now [23:13] i guess it finally properly died [23:16] thank goodness for our tooling - I just relocated the company website to a secondary server in a different datacentre (my pulsant datacentre issue caused it to go down) [23:16] thankfully that's the only public service which appears to be affected - we're unbalanced it seems [23:17] all our others are already in the datacentre that I migrated to rather than being evenly spread between the two centres [23:18] Contracts are all signed now, I'm officially on a BTC salary :) [23:20] oh dear, still intermittent? [23:21] seems okay here [23:22] http://drumoff.tv/ [23:23] I guess it's just a case of monitoring it
