| marxjohn1on | is anyone else having trouble with APT this morning? I get a load of 404s when trying to run apt-get update, although I can access the URLs fine in a browser | 09:20 |
|---|---|---|
| zmoylan-pi | apt-get update running fine in other terminal window | 09:24 |
| marxjohn1on | damn, looks like like an issue with sudo rather than with apt :/ | 09:26 |
| marxjohn1on | hmm, seems to have fixed itself after a reboot! | 09:30 |
| popey | \o/ | 09:40 |
| popey | yay, now my laptop has longest uptime its ever had (in this install) | 09:40 |

| zmoylan-pi | my rasp pi laughs at your puny 17 days human :-) | 09:42 |
| zmoylan-pi | i recently had to reboot it after a network outage. first reboot in about 3 months | 09:43 |
| foobarry | 10:24:40 up 1167 days, 21:17, 2 users, load average: 0.00, 0.06, 0.03 | 10:24 |

| * Azelphur facedesks | 12:11 | |
| Azelphur | I saw a nice clip-on gamepad on Amazon and it states it'll only work with 82mm phones but the Nexus 6 is 83mm, so I asked a question on Amazon to see if anyone knew if it fits on the N6 | 12:12 |
| Azelphur | some guy replies "I've got an N4 and its fine" ... -.- | 12:12 |
| * xnox ponders about buying N6 | 12:17 | |
| Azelphur | xnox: I'm pondering too which is why I wanna make sure it fits ;) | 12:17 |
| * brobostigon is happy with his nexus4, not too big, not too small. | 12:25 | |
| * awilkins is another happy Nexus 4 person, not even unhappy with the battery life | 12:38 | |
| awilkins | Android L seems to have really perked it up. | 12:39 |
| brobostigon | last about a day i would say, average. | 12:39 |
| * brobostigon agrees | 12:39 | |
| awilkins | If it was an easy matter to replace the battery I would probably consider doing it just to refresh it, but since it's a fiddle, I'll probably wait until it actually annoys me. | 12:40 |

| sebsebseb | oh jolla has a real keyboard? | 15:58 |
| sebsebseb | yeah I'll get tablet in May to | 15:58 |

| popey | who get news before us | 15:58 |
| sebsebseb | really? | 15:59 |
| sebsebseb | even though the site is unoffial | 15:59 |
| popey | sebsebseb: yes, there was an indiegogo campaign | 15:59 |
| popey | yes | 15:59 |
| sebsebseb | yep that's what I contributed to | 15:59 |
| popey | he's one of a whole bunch | 15:59 |
| sebsebseb | the indiego compain for Jolla | 15:59 |
| popey | Jordan Keyes is too | 15:59 |
| popey | no, a separate indiegogo for a keyboard | 15:59 |
| sebsebseb | also the edge before actaully I think, but that never happended so | 15:59 |
| popey | https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2028347278/tohkbd-the-other-half-keyboard-for-your-jolla | 15:59 |
| popey | good if you like real keyboards | 15:59 |
| foobarry | spotify app works for non premium accoints now.. | 15:59 |
| sebsebseb | oh another one | 15:59 |
| sebsebseb | yes that's what annoys me about my Andoird phone trying to type on there is so slow uh | 16:00 |
| sebsebseb | I am a touch typist :) | 16:00 |
| foobarry | also, i don't seem to get any ads on the web player anymore ;S | 16:00 |
| sebsebseb | for 15 years or so | 16:00 |
| sebsebseb | so if you mean real keyboard as in like computer keyboard, well :) | 16:00 |
| sebsebseb | popey: yes that's good, is that for the tablet to hm | 16:02 |
| sebsebseb | that looks good I mean above | 16:02 |
| popey | penguin42: it's http://store.bqreaders.com/es/smartphones/aquaris-e-4-5 - not high end | 16:03 |
| sebsebseb | yeah so what will the price be of it | 16:03 |
| sebsebseb | in pounds or proabably hmm | 16:03 |
| popey | dunno, but should be similar to that price linked above | 16:03 |
| penguin42 | popey: No, I meant your promise to wear unusual headgear | 16:05 |
| sebsebseb | about 117 pounds it seems then | 16:05 |
| popey | penguin42: haha, i thought you meant hardware :D | 16:06 |
| sebsebseb | I guess shoudn't be to much more than £100 since aparnatly the hardware is about a year old to on that phone | 16:06 |
| sebsebseb | popey: then the high end phone is for USA and such mainly isn't it, from the other company? that comes out later | 16:07 |
| popey | Meizu is chi | 16:08 |
| popey | *China | 16:08 |
| sebsebseb | popey: I am listening to the new years show, now starting to listen to you | 16:08 |
| popey | hehe | 16:08 |
| sebsebseb | I will do the whole thing | 16:09 |
| sebsebseb | it isn't really 26 hours though, since white space | 16:09 |
| ali1234 | if I get a BQ phone, can I put android on it if/when ubuntu totally sucks? | 16:09 |
| sebsebseb | ali1234: probably | 16:09 |
| sebsebseb | try it might be a bit sucky I guess, someties anyway, but it wil still be intresitng to have the first one :) | 16:10 |
| * sebsebseb will have a Jolla as well :d and my old two years old Android phone | 16:11 | |
| ali1234 | i might be able to get a freebie but it depends if they actually bother to send them out | 16:12 |
| ali1234 | if not i'll have to buy one | 16:12 |
| sebsebseb | freeibie from where? | 16:12 |
| ali1234 | but pretty much i only want to try it out | 16:12 |
| sebsebseb | ali1234: no I think BQ will sel them and that's that | 16:12 |
| ali1234 | you know, from people :) | 16:12 |
| sebsebseb | if it's about £100 that's reasonable | 16:12 |
| sebsebseb | I think | 16:12 |
| sebsebseb | ,but not to much over that, hardware is old aparnatly | 16:13 |
| ali1234 | they always send out review devices when they make a new phone | 16:13 |
| sebsebseb | hmm true to media | 16:13 |
| ali1234 | and by "they" i mean all mobile phone manufacturers | 16:13 |
| sebsebseb | some bloggers | 16:13 |
| ali1234 | however this isn't really a new phone so who know | 16:13 |
| * sebsebseb probably woudn't get one free anyway | 16:13 | |
| sebsebseb | popey: so apparnatly ubuntu uk podcast might be stopping? | 16:17 |
| popey | is it? | 16:19 |
| sebsebseb | popey: no just something some were saying on the thing | 16:20 |
| popey | the thing? | 16:20 |
| sebsebseb | apparnatly Tony is leaveing I should probably say? | 16:20 |
| popey | ali1234: yeah, we're sending some out to some people | 16:20 |
| popey | yeah, he is | 16:20 |
| sebsebseb | ,but you lot going to carry on without him? | 16:21 |
| ali1234 | canonical is? normally BQ would do that :) | 16:21 |
| popey | we are. | 16:21 |
| popey | google send out nexus devices, not lg | 16:21 |
| sebsebseb | ok that's what I wanted to know :) | 16:21 |
| ali1234 | nexus devices are google branded tho | 16:21 |
| sebsebseb | why's he leaving? someone mentioend on podcast that's all | 16:21 |
| popey | sebsebseb: hang on, my "we are" was in reply to ali1234 | 16:21 |
| sebsebseb | oh | 16:21 |
| popey | sebsebseb: he said on uupc | 16:21 |
| popey | and the bq is ubuntu branded (I think) | 16:22 |
| ali1234 | i guess they have the manufacturer logo on them too | 16:22 |
| popey | nexus devices are co-branded. | 16:22 |
| sebsebseb | oh ok well I haven't heard that | 16:22 |
| ali1234 | yeah, interesting, that :) | 16:22 |
| popey | heh | 16:22 |
| ali1234 | you sure you're allowed to tell us this? ;) | 16:22 |
| popey | heh | 16:22 |
| popey | I'm only telling you what I've seen reported elsewhere :D | 16:22 |
| popey | (publicly) | 16:22 |
| sebsebseb | omgubuntu guy gets a free one I guess joey :d | 16:22 |
| popey | yes | 16:22 |
| ali1234 | i expected it would be more of a "canonical makes the OS, manufacturer takes it and brands it" type of thing | 16:23 |
| sebsebseb | popey gets a free one I guess, but you helped make it etc | 16:23 |
| sebsebseb | so that makes sense | 16:23 |
| popey | i already have one | 16:23 |
| sebsebseb | the BQ one? | 16:23 |
| popey | ali1234: i think that can happen too | 16:23 |
| popey | sebsebseb: yes | 16:23 |
| sebsebseb | oh I see just the last bits on the OS, and company stuff | 16:23 |
| sebsebseb | henceFebrurary relaes | 16:24 |
| sebsebseb | I guess | 16:24 |
| gavyam | helllo UK! | 17:10 |

| awilkins | Anyone know a way of buying Google Play credit for your child's account without associating your paypal / credit card with their account? | 18:38 |
| brobostigon | how about one of those google play cards/tokens? | 18:39 |
| brobostigon | credit* | 18:39 |
| awilkins | Yeah. It just seems redonkulous that you have to go a physical shop and buy a printed piece of plastic | 18:39 |
| awilkins | And no, I'm not trusting one of those unapproved retailers who'll email you the code | 18:40 |
| brobostigon | i dont know if there is a way, to topup someones elses account. | 18:40 |
| awilkins | Not an obvious one | 18:40 |
| penguin42 | brobostigon: Can you buy an electronic version of those google play cards | 18:42 |
| zmoylan-pi | a prepay credit card? | 18:42 |
| brobostigon | no idea penguin42 | 18:43 |
| awilkins | Prepaid credit cards are not available in the UK AFAIK but I've not researched it | 18:43 |
| awilkins | Can't seem to buy electronic versions of the play gift cards | 18:43 |
| awilkins | Well, not from the approved source | 18:44 |
| awilkins | THere are guys who will mail you a code but I'd rather not give them my money | 18:44 |
| awilkins | Although you can buy them for Bitcoin... | 18:44 |
| zmoylan-pi | odd, they have prepay cards in ireland. i thought the banks here would only risk them after the uk had done all the software writing :-) | 18:45 |
| * awilkins wonders if there's anything left on my Post Office Travel Card | 18:48 | |
| awilkins | You can get prepaids | 18:48 |
| awilkins | Just never considered it | 18:48 |
| awilkins | Still a total PITA to get a £3.99 app to please my daughter | 18:48 |
| popey | stop bitching and go to the shop like a good dad | 18:49 |
| awilkins | :P | 18:50 |
| zmoylan-pi | can you gift apps on your account to her? | 18:51 |
| popey | no | 18:52 |
| popey | and if your child is under 13 they (or you) are in breach of the ToS anyway | 18:52 |
| popey | so trying to get Google to "fix" this is a non-starter | 18:52 |
| popey | the quick fix is logon to google play with your account on their device and install the app that way. | 18:53 |
| popey | or see if it's in the amazon store, and use that | 18:53 |
| awilkins | Yeah, even buying her a card and getting her to redeem it is outside the ToS | 18:53 |
| zmoylan-pi | it's a bit sad that it works so badly | 18:53 |
| awilkins | The quick fix is not really acceptable because the point is that I want to AVOID exposing my account to her tablet because it's a cesspool of free/evil apps | 18:54 |
| popey | you dont need to | 18:54 |
| popey | login as you, logout again | 18:54 |
| popey | i have found a number of paid apps are free in the amazon store | 18:56 |
| popey | also, there's a free app each day | 18:56 |
| awilkins | Blimey. Her tablet is sick. | 19:02 |
| awilkins | She went to the loo with it while we chatted | 19:02 |
| awilkins | It's dropped 80% of it's charge in that time | 19:03 |
| awilkins | She must have utterly thrashed the battery | 19:03 |
| penguin42 | awilkins: Battery management seems to be complete black art; I've got a Nook that does that | 19:03 |
| popey | awilkins: what tablet? | 19:08 |
| awilkins | popey, hudl 1 | 19:29 |
| popey | ah | 19:30 |
| czajkowski | popey: you about ? | 19:37 |
| popey | czajkowski: yo | 19:42 |
| czajkowski | popey: any idea what I'm doing or not doing here | 19:44 |
| czajkowski | I've a clean install | 19:44 |
| czajkowski | installed flash | 19:44 |
| czajkowski | on chromium most work like youtube no issues | 19:44 |
| czajkowski | but on some pages keeps saying please install flash | 19:44 |
| czajkowski | and also some drop memus do not work on chromium they appear blank but if you arrow down them they show | 19:45 |
| zmoylan-pi | don't a lot of youtube pages not use html5 and not flash? | 19:50 |
| zmoylan-pi | *now use | 19:51 |
| penguin42 | zmoylan-pi: Only if you configure for it | 19:52 |
