foobarry | davmor2 is stoned | 08:13 |
davmor2 | foobarry: no JamesTait said it was World Dream day | 08:14 |
foobarry | i dream about travelling to work and i'm not wearing shoes | 08:15 |
davmor2 | and you think I'm stoned :P | 08:16 |
foobarry | or i'm forever trying to pack for holiday and i can never finish | 08:16 |
JamesTait | davmor2, Great A'Tuin is the world turtle, not a tortoise. ;) | 08:17 |
popey | knightwise: no thankfully! | 08:18 |
davmor2 | JamesTait: I couldn't remember which it was I was close though | 08:20 |
JamesTait | davmor2, we knew what you meant! | 08:20 |
* JamesTait is making his way through the Discworld series again, at eldest son's bedtime. | 08:21 | |

davmor2 | JamesTait: everything a growing kid needs :) | 08:26 |
davmor2 | JamesTait: you gonna take him to the NRM in york then? | 08:26 |
JamesTait | davmor2, undoubtedly, at some point. | 08:26 |
JamesTait | davmor2, we've done Etches Park depot, Great Central Railway, Midland Railway Centre, various train stations and level crossings. | 08:27 |
davmor2 | JamesTait: I can also recommend a trip to bridgenorth and jump on the Severn Valley Railway | 08:27 |
JamesTait | davmor2, he's asked me to take photos of the train I go to London on, and if I go on a subway in the US he wants photos. | 08:30 |
foobarry | i had a dream the other night that the 8.11 train was a steam train. but my 8.26 was a regualr commuter overground train. and i just missed the 8.11. it seemed to plant itself as a memory rather than a dream. i've only just recalled that it was a dream | 08:33 |
=== Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away | ||
davmor2 | JamesTait: you also get the hill train | 08:33 |

directhex | brobostigon: there *is* a FUP! | 09:19 |
directhex | brobostigon: 1T per month. | 09:19 |
brobostigon | directhex: ok, last time i looked there wasnt, ok thank you. thats still a huge amount of data. | 09:20 |
directhex | brobostigon: i don't push that on fibre, in a month, with all the steam games | 09:20 |
brobostigon | directhex: i can imagine, it would be difficult to get anywhere near to. | 09:21 |
davmor2 | Tunes stuck in my head today are http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrlhLaNClgw and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwlogyj7nFE | 09:22 |

directhex | i've had "starlight" by the supermen lovers in my head a lot lately | 09:26 |
ujjain | is dish washer tablets always th same size? | 09:27 |
=== Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte | ||
directhex | ujjain: approximately | 09:27 |
directhex | ujjain: dishwashers with a tablet tray should accept any brand on the market, anyway | 09:28 |
ujjain | ah ok, I will get the discounted finish powerball then, they should fit then | 09:28 |
ujjain | yeah right, I never boughth dishwasher tablets before, but should be fine then | 09:28 |
davmor2 | we should make a playlist of the tunes we have in our heads they are obviously the best tunes EVA!!!!! part 1 :) it's always part 1 don't ask me why :D | 09:29 |
Myrtti | spotify collaborative playlist | 09:30 |
Myrtti | I already have few of those earworm playlists from different groups | 09:31 |
zmoylan-pi | played from a cassette changer for full 80s retro :-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgTuzDQokdk | 09:31 |
ujjain | fabric conditioner is the same as fabric softener or as washing detergent? | 09:40 |
DJones | softener | 09:42 |
ujjain | ah thanks | 09:42 |
Myrtti | I use white vinegar from a Cash and Carry instead | 09:45 |
Myrtti | doesn't leave a horrid scent on the clothes and helps with limescale a bit | 09:46 |
ujjain | ah, right. :) | 09:58 |
ujjain | what's the english ikea called, you can order online and they have massive books, then you collect in the store | 10:31 |
ujjain | 5 letters I think, 2 silibals\ | 10:31 |
ujjain | sounds like astro | 10:31 |
dwatkins_ | Sweden upon Thames | 10:31 |
ujjain | hmm, that's not it :P | 10:31 |
dwatkins_ | aka Ikea | 10:31 |
ujjain | haha | 10:32 |
=== dwatkins_ is now known as dwatkins | ||
DJones | ujjain: Argos ? | 10:34 |
ujjain | ah yes | 10:34 |
ujjain | thanks | 10:34 |
DJones | Or Homebase, both owned by the same people, slightly different products though | 10:34 |
davmor2 | ujjain: you know we have ikea here too right ;) they have book books too | 10:35 |
ujjain | Yeah I know, but I am looking for more glasses/cutlery so I can be more lazy before doing laundry | 10:35 |
davmor2 | ujjain: again ikea :P | 10:36 |
ujjain | ah yeah, but it's far | 10:36 |
ujjain | I'd need a car | 10:36 |
davmor2 | ujjain: hahaha | 10:36 |
ujjain | or take a busride for 20/25 minutes | 10:36 |
Myrtti | woe is you | 10:36 |
DJones | I suspect most people order online at Ikea though, so they can just go to a collection point rather than having to get the Sat Nav out to find their way round the store | 10:36 |
ujjain | ah hmm, let me see, IKEA is cheaper yeah | 10:37 |
davmor2 | DJones: I prefer the satnav idea when going to Ikea but that is most cause it means I'm owed the meal I have there :) | 10:44 |
DJones | :) | 10:45 |
foobarry | anyone used LTSP lately (linux terminal server project) | 10:58 |
davmor2 | foobarry: no | 11:04 |
ujjain | 0800 numbers in the Netherlands are free, but are paid numbers in the UK, right? Do all 0800 numbers have the same cost? | 11:26 |
ujjain | found it: http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/phones/cut-cost-0800-mobiles | 11:27 |
davmor2 | ujjain: no 0800 numbers are free from landlines but cost a normal charge from mobiles | 11:27 |
ujjain | ah ok! thanks, didn't know | 11:27 |
foobarry | except on giffgaff i think it is no-cost | 11:27 |
ujjain | three contract also fere, but I have three pay as you go | 11:27 |
=== Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away | ||
ujjain | I was rejected for a FlexPlus account based on my credit score. Will that even more negatively affect my credit score? | 11:35 |
davmor2 | ujjain: no, but it might make it harder to get credit card and accounts that have them. | 11:43 |
ujjain | why do you even need credit score for a bank account, argh, I don't even want to be able to have a negative balance. | 11:45 |
directhex | there's still credit, on a non-credit account | 11:49 |
directhex | e.g. cheques are credit-based | 11:49 |
directhex | since there's no verification of balance when you write a cheque | 11:49 |
Myrtti | just get rid of cheques | 11:52 |
Myrtti | problem solved | 11:52 |
ujjain | i threw away my cheques | 11:53 |
brobostigon | they are outdated anyway. | 11:53 |
diplo | Our school for my kids prefers cheques for payment of stuff, I don't a cheque book but they don't like cash | 11:57 |
ujjain | crappy. | 11:58 |
Myrtti | haven't they heard of bank accounts? | 11:58 |
Myrtti | I heard that in the big world you write bills with the account information to which you want the money to be paid to | 11:59 |
Myrtti | I'm under the impression it's quite fast too | 11:59 |
Myrtti | like, nearly immediate or at most one banking day. | 12:00 |
Myrtti | heretic, I know! | 12:01 |
diplo | Myrtti, I know, or even just a card machine.. | 12:01 |
diplo | Other schools around the area allow it :/ | 12:01 |
diplo | A new head recently, so hoping he improves things | 12:02 |
Myrtti | notice how gracefully I'm ignoring the fact you're paying the school | 12:02 |
christel | our school also prefers cheque for stuff | 12:04 |
diplo | heh, it's for after school clubs etc and school dinners | 12:05 |
Myrtti | after school clubs have to be organised by someone else than the school in Finland | 12:06 |
Myrtti | and school dinners are free | 12:06 |
Myrtti | whoever organises said clubs can ask for a fee | 12:06 |
diplo | School dinners are free ( this year, wasn't that way last year ) up to year 2, so I only have to pay for one | 12:09 |
diplo | But the one who gets it free prefers packed lunch :/ | 12:09 |
Myrtti | kids in Finland would get a letter to home if they'd come in with a packed lunch :-/ | 12:14 |
Myrtti | talking of lunches, I just learned about Hartley's jelly cups | 12:14 |
Myrtti | well I have noticed them before but hadn't tried one before | 12:14 |
Myrtti | surprisingly nice | 12:15 |
diplo | Seen them, never tried them | 12:20 |
knightwise | Ghahhh ! You evil taxman you ! | 12:20 |
knightwise | Taking away hard earned money from my beloved little startup | 12:21 |
diddledan | oh dear. I got a colleague rattled by deleting files which he needed to stay | 12:38 |
DJones | Is there an easy way to convert .pdf to an excel/openoffice calc file? | 13:07 |
brobostigon | open the pdf in openoffice, then save/export it into a different format? | 13:08 |
foobarry | copy paste | 13:10 |
DJones | That doesn't work (at least using the Windows version, just opens the file in Draw) | 13:10 |
DJones | Just trying an online converter | 13:12 |
Myrtti | excuse me while I squee, but wedding shoes just arrived in mail | 13:13 |
Myrtti | *squee* | 13:14 |
Myrtti | there, done. | 13:14 |

NET||abuse | I'm having an absolute 'mare here, laptop keyabord, coffee spill, touchpad was out for a day, then started working again, everything else seems fine except the return key. external or onscreen keyboard is the only way I can keep working. | 15:21 |
NET||abuse | anybody have any tips on fixing a single key on a keyboard. mechanically seems fine. | 15:21 |
NET||abuse | dont know what i could have done to have just 1 key no work. | 15:21 |
BigRedS | what sort of keyboard is it? And when it doesn't work, do you mean it just doesn't appear to send any keypresses? | 18:58 |
zmoylan-pi | the old crumbs in the keyboard problem? | 19:00 |
daftykins | never heard a better candidate for percussive maintenance | 19:01 |
SuperEngineer | there's a way to stop crumbs, pizza bits, fag ash et al gettinhg into your keyboard | 19:12 |
directhex | don't use a keyboard, type via telepathy | 19:13 |
SuperEngineer | ...stick keyboard to ceiling... after tyring todo anything on it after that... | 19:13 |
SuperEngineer | all other probs seem simple! | 19:13 |
daftykins | could just get the flat surface medical keyboards i saw recently at the hospital | 19:14 |
daftykins | they looked pretty weird though, i doubt feedback is very good | 19:14 |
SuperEngineer | or a good ol' fashioned flimsy heyboard cover? | 19:15 |
zmoylan-pi | the don't eat over keyboard option a non goer? | 19:15 |
daftykins | even without eating you'll still get lots of dead skin and so on in there | 19:16 |
SuperEngineer | or try clingfilm... if you get it right you can still use the keyboard but if you don't...... ;) | 19:16 |
SuperEngineer | [on the other hand get a can of mankind's best friend - air duster! | 19:18 |
SuperEngineer | dead skin - use latex gloves! dandruff - use a head cover! runny nose -use a dust mask! | 19:21 |
SuperEngineer | ....& don't forgoet to post the picture of the result on the web :) | 19:21 |
SuperEngineer | Q/ anyone else finding that Chromium randomly crashes recently? Is it just me? | 19:26 |
zmoylan-pi | a full hazmat suit to keep dust away from keyboard? | 19:27 |
SuperEngineer | zmoylan-pi: not a good idea - the usb ports can't poewer the air blowers | 19:28 |
SuperEngineer | *power | 19:28 |
ali1234 | i've seen some random chrome crashes recently. and some random firefox ones too | 19:48 |
ali1234 | and by that i mean an above average amount | 19:48 |
ali1234 | is centos 5.9 still supported? | 20:07 |
