=== Laney is now known as Guest13167 === zmoylan-1i is now known as zmoylan-pi [09:20] 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 [09:24] apt-get update running fine in other terminal window [09:26] damn, looks like like an issue with sudo rather than with apt :/ [09:30] hmm, seems to have fixed itself after a reboot! [09:40] \o/ [09:40] yay, now my laptop has longest uptime its ever had (in this install) [09:40] http://paste.ubuntu.com/9658563/ [09:40] 17 days! [09:42] my rasp pi laughs at your puny 17 days human :-) [09:43] i recently had to reboot it after a network outage. first reboot in about 3 months [10:24] 10:24:40 up 1167 days, 21:17, 2 users, load average: 0.00, 0.06, 0.03 [10:36] morning boys and girls. [10:41] morning mammals [10:45] Urrgh, it's 2015 [10:45] but you'll be writing dates down as 2014 for a few days weeks yet :-) [10:47] months === bashrc_ is now known as bashrc2 [12:11] * Azelphur facedesks [12:12] 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] some guy replies "I've got an N4 and its fine" ... -.- [12:17] * xnox ponders about buying N6 [12:17] xnox: I'm pondering too which is why I wanna make sure it fits ;) [12:25] * brobostigon is happy with his nexus4, not too big, not too small. [12:38] * awilkins is another happy Nexus 4 person, not even unhappy with the battery life [12:39] Android L seems to have really perked it up. [12:39] last about a day i would say, average. [12:39] * brobostigon agrees [12:40] 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. === Guest13167 is now known as Laney === bashrc2 is now known as bashrc [15:29] does preseeding have option to use NFS as option to install Ubuntu? [15:29] kickstart have this optin in the kickstart file e.g. nfs --server 10.2.3.4 --dir /srv/dfds [15:34] hi [15:46] hello sebsebseb [15:46] popey: hi [15:47] popey: are you back at work today? [15:55] sebsebseb: nope [15:55] Monday [15:56] Ubuntu BQ Phone [15:56] next month then? [15:56] popey: I am about to get my Jolla, waiting for parcel to come, I shoud have put the code in for that before Christmas really since had paid etc [15:56] ,but might get a BQ Ubuntu Phone to [15:58] yeah, mid feb i believe [15:58] popey: How's the headware ? [15:58] yeah accordingg to omgubuntu, but your the expert on that realy not htem :d [15:58] friend of mine just got a jolla, he likes phones with real keyboards. [15:58] oh jolla has a real keyboard? [15:58] yeah I'll get tablet in May to [15:58] well, actually omgubuntu Joey is one of the Ubuntu Insiders [15:58] who get news before us [15:59] really? [15:59] even though the site is unoffial [15:59] sebsebseb: yes, there was an indiegogo campaign [15:59] yes [15:59] yep that's what I contributed to [15:59] he's one of a whole bunch [15:59] the indiego compain for Jolla [15:59] Jordan Keyes is too [15:59] no, a separate indiegogo for a keyboard [15:59] also the edge before actaully I think, but that never happended so [15:59] https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2028347278/tohkbd-the-other-half-keyboard-for-your-jolla [15:59] good if you like real keyboards [15:59] spotify app works for non premium accoints now.. [15:59] oh another one [16:00] yes that's what annoys me about my Andoird phone trying to type on there is so slow uh [16:00] I am a touch typist :) [16:00] also, i don't seem to get any ads on the web player anymore ;S [16:00] for 15 years or so [16:00] so if you mean real keyboard as in like computer keyboard, well :) [16:02] popey: yes that's good, is that for the tablet to hm [16:02] that looks good I mean above [16:03] penguin42: it's http://store.bqreaders.com/es/smartphones/aquaris-e-4-5 - not high end [16:03] yeah so what will the price be of it [16:03] in pounds or proabably hmm [16:03] dunno, but should be similar to that price linked above [16:05] popey: No, I meant your promise to wear unusual headgear [16:05] about 117 pounds it seems then [16:06] penguin42: haha, i thought you meant hardware :D [16:06] I guess shoudn't be to much more than £100 since aparnatly the hardware is about a year old to on that phone [16:07] popey: then the high end phone is for USA and such mainly isn't it, from the other company? that comes out later [16:08] Meizu is chi [16:08] *China [16:08] popey: I am listening to the new years show, now starting to listen to you [16:08] hehe [16:09] I will do the whole thing [16:09] it isn't really 26 hours though, since white space [16:09] if I get a BQ phone, can I put android on it if/when ubuntu totally sucks? [16:09] ali1234: probably [16:10] try it might be a bit sucky I guess, someties anyway, but it wil still be intresitng to have the first one :) [16:11] * sebsebseb will have a Jolla as well :d and my old two years old Android phone [16:12] i might be able to get a freebie but it depends if they actually bother to send them out [16:12] if not i'll have to buy one [16:12] freeibie from where? [16:12] but pretty much i only want to try it out [16:12] ali1234: no I think BQ will sel them and that's that [16:12] you know, from people :) [16:12] if it's about £100 that's reasonable [16:12] I think [16:13] ,but not to much over that, hardware is old aparnatly [16:13] they always send out review devices when they make a new phone [16:13] hmm true to media [16:13] and by "they" i mean all mobile phone manufacturers [16:13] some bloggers [16:13] however this isn't really a new phone so who know [16:13] * sebsebseb probably woudn't get one free anyway [16:17] popey: so apparnatly ubuntu uk podcast might be stopping? [16:19] is it? [16:20] popey: no just something some were saying on the thing [16:20] the thing? [16:20] apparnatly Tony is leaveing I should probably say? [16:20] ali1234: yeah, we're sending some out to some people [16:20] yeah, he is [16:21] ,but you lot going to carry on without him? [16:21] canonical is? normally BQ would do that :) [16:21] we are. [16:21] google send out nexus devices, not lg [16:21] ok that's what I wanted to know :) [16:21] nexus devices are google branded tho [16:21] why's he leaving? someone mentioend on podcast that's all [16:21] sebsebseb: hang on, my "we are" was in reply to ali1234 [16:21] oh [16:21] sebsebseb: he said on uupc [16:22] and the bq is ubuntu branded (I think) [16:22] i guess they have the manufacturer logo on them too [16:22] nexus devices are co-branded. [16:22] oh ok well I haven't heard that [16:22] yeah, interesting, that :) [16:22] heh [16:22] you sure you're allowed to tell us this? ;) [16:22] heh [16:22] I'm only telling you what I've seen reported elsewhere :D [16:22] (publicly) [16:22] omgubuntu guy gets a free one I guess joey :d [16:22] yes [16:23] i expected it would be more of a "canonical makes the OS, manufacturer takes it and brands it" type of thing [16:23] popey gets a free one I guess, but you helped make it etc [16:23] so that makes sense [16:23] i already have one [16:23] the BQ one? [16:23] ali1234: i think that can happen too [16:23] sebsebseb: yes [16:23] oh I see just the last bits on the OS, and company stuff [16:24] henceFebrurary relaes [16:24] I guess [17:10] helllo UK! [17:10] i love your country. [17:11] but i have an issue with my linux. === Dave2_ is now known as Dave2 [17:42] [18:38] Anyone know a way of buying Google Play credit for your child's account without associating your paypal / credit card with their account? [18:39] how about one of those google play cards/tokens? [18:39] credit* [18:39] Yeah. It just seems redonkulous that you have to go a physical shop and buy a printed piece of plastic [18:40] And no, I'm not trusting one of those unapproved retailers who'll email you the code [18:40] i dont know if there is a way, to topup someones elses account. [18:40] Not an obvious one [18:42] brobostigon: Can you buy an electronic version of those google play cards [18:42] a prepay credit card? [18:43] no idea penguin42 [18:43] Prepaid credit cards are not available in the UK AFAIK but I've not researched it [18:43] Can't seem to buy electronic versions of the play gift cards [18:44] Well, not from the approved source [18:44] THere are guys who will mail you a code but I'd rather not give them my money [18:44] Although you can buy them for Bitcoin... [18:45] 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 :-) [18:48] * awilkins wonders if there's anything left on my Post Office Travel Card [18:48] You can get prepaids [18:48] Just never considered it [18:48] Still a total PITA to get a £3.99 app to please my daughter [18:49] stop bitching and go to the shop like a good dad [18:50] :P [18:51] can you gift apps on your account to her? [18:52] no [18:52] and if your child is under 13 they (or you) are in breach of the ToS anyway [18:52] so trying to get Google to "fix" this is a non-starter [18:53] the quick fix is logon to google play with your account on their device and install the app that way. [18:53] or see if it's in the amazon store, and use that [18:53] Yeah, even buying her a card and getting her to redeem it is outside the ToS [18:53] it's a bit sad that it works so badly [18:54] 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] you dont need to [18:54] login as you, logout again [18:56] i have found a number of paid apps are free in the amazon store [18:56] also, there's a free app each day [19:02] Blimey. Her tablet is sick. [19:02] She went to the loo with it while we chatted [19:03] It's dropped 80% of it's charge in that time [19:03] She must have utterly thrashed the battery [19:03] awilkins: Battery management seems to be complete black art; I've got a Nook that does that [19:08] awilkins: what tablet? [19:29] popey, hudl 1 [19:30] ah [19:37] popey: you about ? [19:42] czajkowski: yo [19:44] popey: any idea what I'm doing or not doing here [19:44] I've a clean install [19:44] installed flash [19:44] on chromium most work like youtube no issues [19:44] but on some pages keeps saying please install flash [19:45] and also some drop memus do not work on chromium they appear blank but if you arrow down them they show [19:50] don't a lot of youtube pages not use html5 and not flash? [19:51] *now use [19:52] zmoylan-pi: Only if you configure for it [20:04] what to wathc hm [20:04] watch [20:53] well that was rubbish crispy chilli chicken ..for 2 ..pah 2 5yr olds maybe [20:55] czajkowski: dunno, i dont have flash installed anymore, gave up on it. you may need pepper flash installing though [20:55] for chromium [20:56] oops http://download.cyanogenmod.org/ [21:01] popey: okie cheers [21:35] mouse just wandered out in the lounge [21:35] and dog was sleeping on my lap [21:35] think it escaped down a wobbly antenna socket that goes under floorboards [21:36] wife wtching another adwul film [21:37] afwul [21:37] snow twilight and the hunstman [21:47] never even heard of it [21:47] im watching gone girl..bit long tho 2hr26 pfft
