[10:12] morning [10:13] morning bashrc === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte [14:16] is it me or is the UK freezing right now?! [14:17] it's not freezing here [14:17] 1-2 degress above freezing [14:17] so no [14:19] It's not freezing here... I know that because there's no ice out there. However, juust gone out for a walk... darn right it's effing cold out there! :D [14:19] SuperEngineer, my room is like ice. FREEZING! [14:19] was snowing last night too. dahell?! [14:19] [decided playing games from the Steam sale is a much better idea! [14:20] yes, it's cold [14:21] ChunkzZ, if you're 18+ champagne is the answer... freeze it in your room, drink it... *you* will no longer feel the cold! [14:21] lmao I'm 25 but don't drink. [14:22] darn! [14:24] so your choices for this weather are drink tea, coffee, cocoa, bovril, hot chocolate [14:27] ...or gravy [14:27] your bloodstream is probably 10% gravy right now [14:28] 10% ++ [15:11] hot vimto [15:24] Cheeky vimto! [15:24] that'll sort you out [15:29] * SuperEngineer checks his can for vimto for cheeks [15:31] nope - definitely no cheeks! phweeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwww [15:42] it's delicious! [15:43] I need food. I can't cook. ideas? [15:44] errrmm? learn to cook? [15:45] or find a really good take away? [15:45] no money, spent all my money on Christmas. :/ [15:45] [yeah, the latter may be harder than the former] [15:47] got amy beand in cupboard? add bread. add any sauce. food! [15:47] *beans [15:48] yeah sounds like a good idea. :D [15:50] and add a touch of #ubuntu-uk - magic! [16:45] can't beat #ubuntu-uk magic! ;) [17:28] M&S really needs to fix their systems; I do a click-n-collect on a sale item, then get a phone call saying it's going to be a day late; go into a store, find the same thing on the shelf and it's a hastle to try and just say give me that instead [17:37] you can't argue with the system, it's always /right/ [17:38] eventually they owned up they could let me buy them again and they'd do the cancel tomorrow and give me a slip to say they will; whether I believe them is a different matter, what a broken system [17:38] they're luring you into a trap so that they can arrest you as a shop lifter as you leave :-P [17:39] haha [17:40] then they give you another slip so that you can come in at your convenience for the body cavity search... [17:41] it's all about the personal touch... :-) [17:41] * penguin42 doesn't want that type of personal touch [17:42] doesn't matter wether you want it or not, you have a slip that needs to be countersigned... [17:42] * penguin42 gulps [18:10] SuperEngineer, found paste an sauce in my cupboard. microwaveable! epic win! :D [18:17] paste vs pasta? [18:18] might be a poor student living off ketchup packets... :-) [18:19] it's really difficult to give away a part used packet of pasta; I was at a business meeting at the start of the month where I stayed in an apartment for the night and just bought some pasta in a supermarket and tried to give the remains away to my colleagues, very hard [18:23] oh, sorry. was typing too fast! :( [19:27] Argghhh. Don't you just hate it when you've spent 6 hours making conversation with somebody at a christmas family get together and in the last few minutes they drop into the conversation that they used to work at Bletchley Park [19:28] during wwii? or now as touristy place? [19:29] i heard at an aunts funeral that she had corresponded with gb shaw who's a hero of mine... [19:30] Just after WW 2 [19:31] neato [19:31] probably used bits of collosus as paper weights :-) [19:37] Next time I see him, I ll have to ask him abiout Alan Turing [19:37] though it was a big place with a *LOT* of people [19:38] True, but the well known names will be known [19:39] Oh, and can somebody please shoot the Dr Who scriptwriters for the current series....It was aweful [19:39] full of awe or awful? [19:40] :-) [19:40] Heh, full of something, probably most likely from the back endd of cow [19:42] I know a lot of people don't like Capaldi as the doctor because he's older, but thats not it for me, just the scripts have no passion or "get up & go" [19:43] * penguin42 watched the first Capaldi one - not watched Dr Who in ages - I like him, don't like the scripts [19:43] the scripts are more kiddie scifi with more emphasis on fantasty on the few episodes i saw since reboot. ok but nothing to write home about [19:43] penguin42: My thoughts exactly [20:04] morning [20:09] * m0nkey_ tickles the diddledan [20:09] * diddledan giglges [20:09] ello m0nkey_ [20:09] * m0nkey_ waves [20:11] * zmoylan-pi surfs [20:57] I wonder if I'm having a problem with the new laptops Haswell wifi. [20:57] atleast the symptoms match, but this should be fixed with the new kernel in Utopic [20:57] I'd thought [20:58] try a different distro on usb drive to see if problem persists? [21:48] hehe, I had a hilarious conversation with Amazon live chat [21:50] "that king size bed I just bought, are you delivering it to inside the home, or outside?" "outside" "ok when are you delivering it so I can arrange to have someone help me on the day" "some time between the 12th and the 15th" "...maybe you aren't understanding, I live alone...do you expect me to carry a king size bed across my apartment complex by myself?" *2 minutes on hold* "Oh...we'll deliver it to your home" [21:50] xD [21:52] you don't have log rollers and a team of lads on standby 24x7?? :-) [21:52] exactly, hahaha [21:53] when i got my first computer my brothers girlfriends offered me an old table as a desk for it. i just had to transport it 2 miles by myself. [21:54] so on a hot sunny day i walked there, and found it was an expanding table with extending section builtin. weighed a LOT. so carried it on my back home walking bent double, downhill thankfully. [21:55] by the time i got home you could take my pulse just by looking at veins in my forehead [21:55] then had to carry it up 3 flights of stairs to my bedroom... [21:55] haha ouch [21:55] to find that 1 leg was 1" too long to fit in room.... [21:56] i tried every permutation to get that table in. so cut off 2" of one leg, glued it back on after i got it in. did a really good job to confuse the person who decides to remove that table to make them wonder how i got it in [21:57] but after all that effort there was NO WAY it wasn't going in [22:02] hehe [22:02] zmoylan-pi: it's gonna be fun fitting a king size into the smallest bedroom in my place [22:03] remember to put a few litres of water in fridge so that you have something to help cool you down afterwards, that's what works for me [22:04] nah, I'll have someone come over and help me do it once its in [22:04] ah the sensible approach, we'll be having none of that now!! :-) [22:06] hehe
