| TonyH | hi can somebody point me in the direction of help for starting a headless virtualbox VM? | 20:03 |
| TonyH | I've looked at the Virtualbox forum but it looks like complete gobbledygook | 20:04 |
| ali1234 | vboxheadless -s <name> | 20:04 |
| TonyH | yes, I'm getting an error when starting a VM | 20:05 |
| TonyH | VBoxManage: error: Failed to open/create the internal network 'HostInterfaceNetworking-eth0' (VERR_INTNET_FLT_IF_NOT_FOUND). | 20:05 |

| foobarry | my wife is watching one of the worst films ever | 20:20 |
| foobarry | death becomes her | 20:20 |
| diddledan | foobarry, it's funny when goldie hawn has a hole which meryl streep throws a stick through | 20:21 |
| foobarry | think thats about to happen | 20:21 |
| diddledan | \o/ | 20:21 |
| foobarry | this is awful | 20:21 |
| diddledan | teehee | 20:21 |
| foobarry | meryl streep also starred in another terrible film | 20:22 |
| foobarry | abba one | 20:22 |
| foobarry | not as bad as frozen or the dancing penguins film | 20:22 |
| diddledan | dancing penguins = happy feet | 20:23 |
| foobarry | unhappy foobarry | 20:23 |
| foobarry | is £25 for a safari oleg toy realistic? i just received one and gumtree reckons 25-35 | 20:23 |
| diddledan | abba = mamma mia | 20:23 |
| diddledan | I had to google | 20:24 |
| * DJones hands foobarry a copy of "The tooth fairy 2" | 20:24 | |
| diddledan | safari oleg? | 20:24 |
| diddledan | as in the meerkats? | 20:24 |
| foobarry | yes | 20:24 |
| diddledan | I think they're cute | 20:24 |
| foobarry | i hav 3 of them | 20:24 |
| diddledan | lol | 20:24 |
| foobarry | they aren't £25 cute | 20:24 |
| diddledan | if you have three, sell two of them | 20:25 |
| diddledan | DJones, foobarry , what about any of the "tinker bell and the..." movies? | 20:25 |
| foobarry | the two are differtn meerkats | 20:25 |
| diddledan | aah | 20:25 |
| DJones | diddledan: I've not had the pleasure of watching them | 20:26 |
| diddledan | DJones, me either. I don't believe I want to. | 20:26 |
| DJones | In fact, I don't think I've heard of them either | 20:26 |
| diddledan | http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2483260/ | 20:27 |
| foobarry | also, seems inappropriate amount of boobies for a daytime showing of a film | 20:27 |
| DJones | Eeew | 20:28 |
| foobarry | the streep one | 20:28 |
| diddledan | foobarry, streep stripped? | 20:32 |
| foobarry | no, some other lady | 20:33 |
| foobarry | osabella rossilini | 20:33 |
| diddledan | oh the woman who gave them the juice? | 20:36 |
| foobarry | yes | 20:36 |
| foobarry | imdb says "a case of beauty turns ugly in later years" | 20:36 |
| foobarry | We're writing to let you know that the Seller hasn’t yet notified us that they’ve dispatched the order listed below. If you’re expecting these items by December 24, please contact the Seller immediately to check the status of your order | 20:37 |
| foobarry | ugh | 20:37 |
| diddledan | \o/ | 20:38 |
| diddledan | late prezzies ftw | 20:38 |
| diddledan | time for the night shift? | 23:37 |
| * diddledan prods shauno daftykins zmoylan-pi | 23:37 | |
| diddledan | :-p | 23:37 |
| ali1234 | i seem to have got side tracked writing a crazy animation system | 23:38 |
| diddledan | ali1234, oh dear, that sounds like the slippery slope to hades | 23:38 |
| ali1234 | i have a scene stack now, scenes can push an effect on top of the stack | 23:38 |
| ali1234 | effects are also scenes | 23:39 |
| ali1234 | and a composite scene for transitions | 23:39 |
| diddledan | did you continue with the pointer smuggling or segue to a different idea? | 23:39 |
| ali1234 | so you would do return Composite(FadeOut(this), SlideIn(next)); | 23:40 |
| ali1234 | and magic happens | 23:40 |
| diddledan | sounds sorta like promises | 23:40 |
| ali1234 | this is all done with shared_ptr | 23:40 |
| ali1234 | so you have to prefix all that with std::make_shared<Scene> | 23:40 |
| ali1234 | now i;m trying to decide how best to implement the effects like FadeOut | 23:41 |
| diddledan | c++, while being awesome, can sometimes make baby jesus cry | 23:41 |
| ali1234 | can't decide if i should have FadeIn and FadeOut or Fade(direction, ...) | 23:41 |
| daftykins | diddledan: o/ | 23:42 |
| diddledan | \o | 23:42 |
| daftykins | hey all | 23:42 |
| webpigeon_web | Evenin' | 23:42 |
| diddledan | ali1234, maybe a FadeIn and a FadeOut which are helpers and actually call Fade | 23:42 |
| ali1234 | the best thing about this system though is that a random scene can return an effect at any time, and the effect will run until duration, then return the original scene | 23:43 |
| diddledan | webpigeon_web, ello duck | 23:43 |
| webpigeon_web | If i was a duck, surely i'd float... | 23:44 |
| diddledan | </bad bad pun> | 23:44 |
| * zmoylan-pi puts on the extra strong coffee for night shift | 23:44 | |
| diddledan | do pidgeons not then? | 23:44 |
| diddledan | spelign | 23:44 |
| webpigeon_web | and by monty python logic also be made of wood... but that's another story | 23:44 |
| diddledan | pigeons == ducks, surely? | 23:45 |
| diddledan | they look the same | 23:45 |
| diddledan | they even quack the same | 23:45 |
| diddledan | just pigeons need a bit more encouragement | 23:45 |
| webpigeon_web | but can they be converted into integers? (duck typing ;p) | 23:46 |
| ali1234 | ducks are really bad at typing | 23:46 |
| diddledan | but. 1000 ducks. shakespere. | 23:47 |
| diddledan | just throwing that out there | 23:47 |
| diddledan | email I received: "Your domain name dewisfynghhth.org.uk will be cancelled in 7 days" <-- welsh really sucks at readability | 23:48 |
| diddledan | I think whoever spelt that kinda got fed up half-way through and started mashing keys | 23:49 |
| daftykins | :D | 23:49 |
| diddledan | the website seems to still be active, just not listening on that domain: https://www.choosemypcc.org.uk/cy/ | 23:52 |
| shauno | reminds me of that one on the news where they used the out-of-office reply as the translation on a roadsign | 23:53 |
| webpigeon_web | he | 23:53 |
| webpigeon_web | heh | 23:53 |
| diddledan | lol | 23:53 |
| diddledan | yeah that was funneh | 23:53 |
| shauno | http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/7702913.stm | 23:53 |
| shauno | that's what gets me about welsh .. almost any other european language I can at least spot an out-of-office reply lol | 23:54 |
| daftykins | *nod* :) | 23:54 |
| diddledan | lol: "a sign for pedestrians in Cardiff reading 'Look Right' in English read 'Look Left' in Welsh." | 23:57 |
| daftykins | bit irritating that the new freenode services update has dropped DH-BLOWFISH support from SASL auth | 23:57 |
| daftykins | when i reconnected earlier it failed =| | 23:57 |
| === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away | ||
