| JamesTait | davmor2, you wouldn't let me exercise my human right to eat turkey at the Wolves LUG Christmas dinner. Happy Human Rights Day, btw. ;) | 10:03 |

| davmor2 | bigcalm: you'll be able to see the new motor :) | 13:09 |
| bigcalm | davmor2: got rid of the 407? | 13:09 |
| davmor2 | bigcalm: yeap we needed something heavier for the new caravan :) | 13:09 |
| davmor2 | the tow weight on a 407 is abysmal | 13:10 |
| bigcalm | Considering that the 407 is quite a large car to begin with, I'm guessing you have a silly sized caravan | 13:10 |
| davmor2 | bigcalm: nope | 13:10 |
| bigcalm | davmor2: you did have the under powered version of the 407 | 13:11 |
| bigcalm | davmor2: what have you gone for then? | 13:11 |
| davmor2 | 407 tow weight max ie your car is only 1500kg mine is 1800 and the van is 1500 which give me a nice 300kg buffer | 13:11 |
| bigcalm | Fair enough | 13:12 |
| bigcalm | I don't go in for towing large things :) | 13:12 |
| bigcalm | In fact, my 407 lacks a tow bar/ball | 13:12 |
| bigcalm | Hayley's Matrix has that and was good enough to move house with | 13:12 |
| DJones | davmor2: What car have you got now? | 13:43 |
| davmor2 | DJones: Skoda Superb Tow car of the year \o/ | 13:44 |
| shauno | see, I got half way through that before I realised the 407 wasn't authentication required. | 13:44 |
| DJones | I used to have a Kia Sedonna for towing, car weight 2500kgs, could tow anything with that, but fuel consumption was almost at the gallons per mile ratio | 13:44 |
| davmor2 | DJones: yeah this is just a bog standard saloon/hatchback 1800 tow weight and we went from Tenby to Wolverhampton on m4 m5 m6 and use a little over half a tank so I was pretty impressed with that | 13:47 |
| === alan_g|lunch is now known as alan_g | ||
| davmor2 | DJones: we got that 2015 Adria Altea Trent and spent a week in tenby in the coldest week of november and never had the internal temp drop below 12°c at night with no heating so we were pretty impressed with that :) | 13:50 |
| DJones | I ended up getting an Insignia estate, I suspect the weights are fairly similar to the superb | 13:51 |
| DJones | In theory, I can tow about 1600kgs, but would probably stay below 1500kgs which would cover most vans that don't need chelsea tractors anyway | 13:52 |
| DJones | davmor2: Thats good heat retention | 13:52 |
| davmor2 | DJones: indeed that why we went with the superb the write up was fantastic it's won towcar of the year several time and been runner up for most of the rest and to be honest I can see why :) | 13:55 |
| DJones | Cars, caravans and towing have come a long way in the last 45 years, my first memory is my grandad towing his caravan with a 1300cc MK1 Escort | 14:07 |
| === MooDoo is now known as Guest33121 | ||
| DJones | Wives were never allowed to do the driving & towing, although even now my wifes friends are always shocked when she says she tows a caravan as though they don't think she'd be capeable | 14:09 |
| davmor2 | DJones: I can understand why, I mean most people use cars not their wives to tow caravans ;) | 14:12 |
| DJones | Heh | 14:12 |
| DJones | Mines good, although if she's had mushy peas or sprouts, the afterburner makes a mess of the caravan :) | 14:13 |
| davmor2 | DJones: haha that's so wrong :) | 14:15 |

| foobarry | noticing some items on amazon now selling for cheaper than the "lightning deals" were | 15:21 |
| zmoylan-pi | sales weren't as good as they were hoping perhaps | 15:22 |
| foobarry | or the amazon price rose before the sale | 15:22 |
| zmoylan-pi | isn't that illegal in uk? | 15:23 |
| foobarry | no | 15:23 |
| foobarry | amazon prices change all the time | 15:23 |
| zmoylan-pi | item on sale has to be offered for higher price x number of days before sale price | 15:23 |

| diddledan | what's new about it? | 16:36 |
| foobarry | new UI | 16:37 |
| diddledan | oh the material makeover? | 16:37 |
| zmoylan-pi | well if they want to push people to the inbox app they need to make the gmail app worse first :-) | 16:39 |
| diddledan | they can't do that because businesses aren't allowed to use the "inbox" thing | 16:40 |
| intrbiz | new UI, material design, breaks the soft menu button on my S4 | 16:42 |
| intrbiz | in generall looks different and not quite a usable | 16:42 |
| intrbiz | but could be worse | 16:43 |
| diddledan | "breaks" it how? | 16:43 |
| intrbiz | it doesn't work, you have to use the in app menu button | 16:43 |
| intrbiz | rather than the menu button at the bottom on the screen on the S4 | 16:43 |
| diddledan | it shouldn't be visible in that case then | 16:43 |

| diddledan | Guest47327, you cacn try running top in a terminal to see if there's anything evidently using a lot of cpu | 21:48 |
| diddledan | can* | 21:48 |
| Guest47327 | its so laggy i cant do that | 21:48 |
| Guest47327 | diddledan: | 21:48 |
| diddledan | if the system is unresponsive then we can't work out why - all we can do is restart it | 21:50 |
| Guest47327 | diddledan: i tried that but im running on 12.04 | 21:51 |
| Guest47327 | 32 bit | 21:51 |
| diddledan | eh? | 21:51 |
| diddledan | why is that a problem? | 21:51 |
| Guest47327 | no i just wanna know why it could be laggy? | 21:52 |
| diddledan | you said you tried rebooting but you're running 12.04 - why is running 12.04 a factor in rebooting? | 21:52 |
| Guest47327 | i don tknow | 21:53 |
| diddledan | as to what would cause it - we need to find out if something is using your cpu or disc extensively thereby tying up runtime | 21:57 |
| diddledan | that's why I suggested running top | 21:57 |
| Guest47327 | oh i did run top but i dont understand it | 21:58 |
| diddledan | the important bit is the lower-half of the window/screen - it's a list of processes sorted by their cpu usage in percent - it's a table with columns, and one of the columns is headed CPU% - look at the top few processes and see what amount of cpu they're using | 22:00 |
| diddledan | I would have share a screenie helping him if he hadn't left | 22:03 |
| daftykins | didn't exactly start out as a very good user, in fairness | 22:04 |

| diddledan | a few years ago a read/write speed of 150MB/s would be amazing | 23:19 |
