[02:18] <zmoylan-pi> splitters
[02:18] <diddledan> zmoylan-pi, can't trust anyone
[02:20] <diddledan> daftykins, so it turns out that cortana doesn't work when the system is set to a british locale - only available in english (US) according to their forums
[02:21] <diddledan> I really wanted to give it a go
[02:21] <daftykins> diddledan: ah that figures, come to think of it i vaguely recall it's country limited too
[02:21] <daftykins> why don't you install the US image and proxy it via the US? :>
[02:22] <daftykins> perhaps via a digital ocean droplet or some such
[02:22] <diddledan> the version of cortana on phones (for winpho8.1) only became british capable a couple months ago
[02:22] <diddledan> lol
[02:22] <zmoylan-pi> not even the peoples popular front?
[02:22] <penguin42> does it get confused if you tell it you want to knock up a quick fix?
[02:22] <diddledan> you'da thunk they'd have made it available everywhere the phones can do it tho
[02:23] <diddledan> zmoylan-pi, the popular front? as in betty on the street corner's cleavage?
[02:23] <penguin42> diddledan: That is hard, language stuff like that is pretty new
[02:26] <daftykins> considering how xbox live goes down every monday night me and my friends play of late, perhaps MS aren't confident they can keep cortana running for all the people playing with win10 ;)
[02:26] <diddledan> maybe
[05:10] <mapps> hi all
[05:27] <mapps> hm
[08:22] <diddledan> yawn
[09:11] <davmor2> Morning all
[09:13] <diddledan> ello
[10:20] <brobostigon> morning boys and girls.
[10:33] <davmor2> morning brobostigon diddledan how's life this fine morning?
[10:34] <brobostigon> morning davmor2
[14:00] <penguin42> hmm, why is my DNS broken
[14:01] <zmoylan-pi> did you hit it with a hammer?
[14:02] <zmoylan-pi> was it on a shelf and the cat knocked it off?
[14:03] <penguin42> no, but I just did and it's come back
[14:03] <zmoylan-pi> that'll teach it
[14:04] <zmoylan-pi> you'd be amazed the amount of wonky hardware that behaves perfectly when there's a good hammer handy
[14:07] <penguin42> well, this appears to have been software - restarted bind on my router, it was spewing 'no valid DS' for everything, which I think is dnssec stuff, but don't understand any more
[14:07] <daftykins> o0
[14:08] <daftykins> how rude of it
[14:08] <penguin42> yes, I'm not sure it's better or worse that restarting made it go away
[14:09] <zmoylan-pi> makes it feel... windowsy...
[14:10] <daftykins> ;)
[14:21] <penguin42> well, I always worry more with things like bind that something dodgy is happening
[15:08] <diddledan> penguin42, as long as bind stays bound you don't have a problem :-p
[15:09] <penguin42> diddledan: well a bound bind that doesn't reply to anything isn't much yse
[15:09] <daftykins> needs more glue ;)
[15:13] <diddledan> there's nothing quite like a good bit of bondage
[15:14] <DJones> diddledan: TMI
[15:14] <diddledan> :-p
[15:14]  * zmoylan-pi hands around the forks, chopsticks and mind bleach
[15:15]  * DJones joins zmoylan-pi and hands out a tazer
[15:15] <diddledan> DJones, TMI
[15:15] <zmoylan-pi> diddledan would probably enjoy that DJones
[15:15] <daftykins> welcome to the Sunday surgery on #ubuntu-uk
[15:16] <davmor2> I'll just stick with Mjölnir good as tazer and hitty thing
[15:16] <DJones> diddledan: Hey, you brought up the bondage
[15:20] <diddledan> DJones, and you continued it with your special toys
[15:21] <DJones> diddledan: You consider tazers as a "special toy" that is seriously to much information
[15:21] <diddledan> lol
[15:22] <DJones> Anybway, enough of your personal life......
[15:22]  * DJones hands popey an eclectic guitar
[15:23] <DJones> (Yup, I spelt that how I meant)
[15:23] <daftykins> don't even want to know how that's used
[15:23]  * daftykins whistles
[15:23]  * zmoylan-pi breaks out the kazoos and hands them around
[15:23] <penguin42> DJones: Does that play floyd ?
[15:25] <DJones> penguin42: Probably more deep purple than pink floyd
[16:08] <davmor2> DJones: it's not very eclectic if it only play deep purple :P
[16:09] <zmoylan-pi> he can play barney the dinosaur on it for more purple... :-)
[16:11]  * daftykins disabled TR-069 on his ISP supplied router to stop them connecting in
[16:12]  * zmoylan-pi waits for daftykins to be denounced as a rebel and taken away by security forces
[16:12] <daftykins> NOOOOO!
[16:12]  * daftykins gets dragged off through some double-doors
[16:13] <daftykins> just heard a nasty tale about an infected router over in the US
[16:25] <diddledan> daftykins, you rebel
[16:25] <diddledan> daftykins, yeah I don't like remote management backdoors
[16:25] <daftykins> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9868532/
[16:25] <daftykins> what a bunch of cruft
[16:26] <daftykins> CWMP-S is what i just murdered
[16:26] <daftykins> the client looks for firmware but i doubt i'll ever see firmware
[16:26] <diddledan> stabby stab stab
[16:28] <daftykins> kind of tempting to just run my own device again
[16:28] <daftykins> at least i'd be in charge of it, then ;)
[16:31] <diddledan> daftykins, telnet!
[16:31] <daftykins> yeah that's what i'm logged in over XD
[16:31] <daftykins> i doubt it's externally facing ;D
[16:31] <daftykins> he says :(
[16:31] <diddledan> hope so
[16:33] <daftykins> you have to telnet in to dump the IPs it dishes out via DHCP, for DNS... then setup your own
[16:33] <daftykins> otherwise if you just add them to the web admin, it always gives out itself as a response in addition
[16:33] <daftykins> so buggy :D
[17:35] <daftykins> {Administrator}[upgrade]=>lastUpgradeInfo
[17:35] <daftykins> Last Upgrade Time    : 0001-01-01T00:00:00Z
[17:35] <daftykins> :D
[17:37] <zmoylan-pi> jesus's was a nipper?
[17:38] <zmoylan-pi> so... linux was in alpha then :-P
[17:39] <diddledan> I'm not sure but I think that was even before linus made his first announcement
[17:40] <daftykins> possibly before Linus learnt the f-word :o
[17:40] <diddledan> don't be silly
[17:40] <diddledan> linus was born knowing the f-word
[17:40] <zmoylan-pi> he always knew the word f...riday
[17:41] <diddledan> TGIFriday
[17:54] <diddledan> oh dear. new trend sweeping my facebook folk at the mo: they're all posting 7 facts about themselves because someone told them to.
[17:54] <daftykins> =|
[17:54] <daftykins> sign out, clear your cache, never look back
[17:54] <diddledan> lol
[17:54] <davmor2> diddledan: you can hear the bleating right?
[18:00] <daftykins> it's deafening
[18:03] <diddledan> baaa
[18:03] <diddledan> omg, did I just do that?!
[18:04] <diddledan> what have people done to me!?
[18:04] <zmoylan-pi> block facebook.com at your router, it's the only way to be sure
[18:05] <diddledan> but. my "friends"!
[18:05] <zmoylan-pi> friends don't let friends use facebook
[18:06] <diddledan> I don't "let" them, they do it without my consent
[18:08] <zmoylan-pi> just means you're not administrating enough punishment beatings to me :-P
[18:08] <diddledan> and we're back to the bondage again
[18:08] <diddledan> see, DJones, it's not just me :-p
[18:09] <zmoylan-pi> you don't need to tie them up to administer a beating
[18:09] <diddledan> lol
[18:09] <diddledan> semantics
[18:09] <zmoylan-pi> no, actions
[20:04] <mapps> hi all
[20:07] <brobostigon> evening mapps
[20:24] <DJones> Remind me not to watch "Slash - made in stoke" and to try headbanging along with the music with a shaved head
[20:24] <mapps> hey brobostigon
[20:25] <mapps> time to watch arrow:D
[20:25] <brobostigon> :)
