| mapp | hi all | 04:12 |
|---|---|---|
| mapp | daftykins the pi2 being able to run win10 is cool | 04:12 |
| daftykins | it probably won't be the win10 you expect | 04:12 |
| mapp | hm | 04:13 |
| daftykins | think i read something about the idea it'll be like Windows RT | 04:15 |
| mapp | ah | 04:23 |
| mapp | whats the RT stand for..not realtime;D | 04:24 |
| mapp | pi2 can run ubuntu too? | 04:24 |
| daftykins | no idea. just doesn't run standard apps i think | 04:24 |
| daftykins | it'll be a compatible ARM version this time yeah | 04:24 |
| daftykins | #ubuntu-arm | 04:24 |
| mapp | which is albeit same as normal ubuntu no?> | 04:24 |
| mapp | just diff arch? | 04:25 |
| daftykins | yeah, ARM | 04:25 |
| daftykins | first Pi was based on a broadcom SoC that was v6 API based i think, so it was no-go - whereas the 2 is v7 based | 04:26 |
| mapp | be cool running ubuntu on a pi | 04:31 |
| mapp | you gonna try it? | 04:31 |
| daftykins | i don't own one | 04:35 |
| daftykins | i can spin up any little machines i want as VMs atop my file server :) | 04:36 |
| daftykins | that already runs 24x7 | 04:36 |
| mapp | i jist think its neat considering how small the pi is | 04:37 |
| mapp | :D | 04:37 |
| daftykins | and how reliable... oh wait | 04:42 |
| daftykins | :) | 04:42 |
| mapp | pffft | 04:44 |
| daftykins | hahaha | 04:45 |
| mapp | only 1 of them..others always good | 04:46 |
| mapp | nd even the one that acts strange..my openVPN server runs stable | 04:46 |

| penguin42 | [ho | 16:18 |
| zmoylan-pi | diddly oh | 16:19 |
| popey | evening | 17:58 |
| * zmoylan-pi peeks outsides and confirms it is indeed evening... | 18:00 | |
| shauno | hm. it's dark and grey here. which really only tells me it's not july yet | 18:15 |
| zmoylan-pi | you live in ireland... it can be dark and grey at any time. :-) | 18:17 |
| MooDoo | evening all | 19:03 |

| daftykins | wow, can't get much of a break as a pedestrian over there | 19:17 |
| zmoylan-pi | 50,000 dashcams can't be wrong | 19:19 |
| daftykins | that's almost the population of Guernsey | 19:22 |
| zmoylan-pi | sheep or humans? | 19:22 |
| daftykins | i don't think we're all that big for sheep, cows we're famous for :) | 19:23 |
| daftykins | heard of the Guernsey Gold? | 19:23 |
| shauno | I honestly have no mental picture how big most the channel islands are. I guess I just picture french-er versions of the isle of wight | 19:25 |
| daftykins | :) | 19:26 |
| daftykins | IoW is pretty big compared to us, i think it's around 3x the size of my island | 19:26 |
| daftykins | 26 square miles i think for mine 0o | 19:26 |
| shauno | (that said I do love the isle of wight. although I'm pro-tunnel, so most the caulkheads would want to hang me) | 19:28 |
| zmoylan-pi | cows are quite popular on aran islands in ireland. after a year starving on near barren rock you bring them to mainland and they eat themselves stupid | 19:28 |
| daftykins | what's pro tunnel? | 19:29 |
| zmoylan-pi | they want to link island to mainland via tunnel? | 19:29 |
| shauno | some do, some don't | 19:29 |
| daftykins | in a local news program from the BBC i caught the other day, Jersey is claiming a tourism drop of 60% i think they said | 19:30 |
| shauno | I think it'd be a fantastic idea, because people can actually go get jobs on the mainland instead of all leaving once they leave school | 19:30 |
| daftykins | indeed! | 19:30 |
| daftykins | that's the biggest problem about the islands really | 19:30 |
| shauno | but some of the more insular folk really distrust the mainland | 19:31 |
| daftykins | e.g. here the government subsidises students going to Uni, then they leave! | 19:31 |
| daftykins | the UK gov is always trying to interfere with us, that's for sure | 19:31 |
| shauno | from what I"ve read, it seems to be old people genuinely believing that there's no drugs on the island, and dealers haven't figure out how the ferry works | 19:32 |
| daftykins | lol | 19:32 |
| zmoylan-pi | what they don't grow grass on the island? | 19:32 |
| shauno | I actually knew an old lady in newport that grew weed in the greenhouse. but had no idea what it was | 19:34 |
| shauno | apparently the whole thing ended up with dead rabbits | 19:34 |
| daftykins | O_O | 19:34 |
| zmoylan-pi | dead happy rabbits... | 19:35 |
| daftykins | first rabbits in space | 19:35 |
| shauno | the details seem to vary from one family member to the next. some suspect uncle rod was growing them there, others don't believe it .. | 19:36 |
| zmoylan-pi | and cats, foxes and dogs with serious munchies | 19:36 |
| MooDoo | lots of people don't realise what they are growing lol | 19:47 |
| daftykins | preliminary synthetic benchmark data, testing DirectX 12's new optimisations for reducing CPU bottlenecks in graphics with Windows 10 and nvidia / AMD graphics cards: http://images.anandtech.com/graphs/graph8962/71450.png | 21:21 |
| daftykins | a GTX 980 improves from 26fps under DirectX 11, versus 67fps with 12 | 21:21 |
| * hamitron just now needs the GTX 980 | 21:36 | |
| * MartijnVdS has a R9 290 | 21:48 | |
| moreati | gawd bless get_iplayer | 22:00 |
| popey | yes indeedy! | 22:00 |
| directhex | mono for ARM is a real thing now. packages for debian/ubuntu arm! | 22:00 |
| popey | Sweet! | 22:02 |
| shauno | hm. maybe one day unity? KSP on the pi ;) | 22:02 |
| daftykins | it stopped working for me the other day 0o | 22:12 |
| daftykins | couldn't even fetch a program list with the latest build | 22:13 |
| daftykins | would someone mind testing the speed they can pull from my home hosting, briefly? | 22:14 |
| daftykins | i shall PM a link if anyone is willing :) | 22:14 |
| moreati | daftykins: sure | 22:14 |
| daftykins | thanks! | 22:14 |
| daftykins | seems our pals across the pond are getting 10% my potential today 0o | 22:15 |
| directhex | shauno: that's Complicated(tm) | 22:28 |
| shauno | ;) | 22:28 |
| shauno | I was mostly kidding anyway, KSP brings my laptop to its knees, so the pi .. may need a few more revisions | 22:29 |
| shauno | I just realised I accidentally bought decaf coffee | 22:56 |
| daftykins | ooh-err | 23:11 |
| zmoylan-pi | you'll need to brew it all at once and distill it to remove the water till you can get 1 cup with enough belt to keep you going :-) | 23:19 |
| === Myrtti_ is now known as Myrtti | ||
| shauno | I think maybe I'll just be really antisocial and grind some beans instead | 23:28 |
| shauno | and use this stuff to poison someone at work | 23:28 |
| penguin42 | shauno: Give it to your colleagues just before a meeting that you need to win, erm you know.... | 23:29 |
| shauno | I don't get invited to meetings anymore :( | 23:30 |
| penguin42 | hehe you also point out the really obvious dumb things everyone else is saying? | 23:33 |
| shauno | I have a small issue with bluntness | 23:33 |
| penguin42 | nod | 23:34 |
| shauno | and our product manager keeps trying to "blind us with technobabble", but lacks the babble | 23:34 |
| penguin42 | shauno: It's when you can identify specific dilberts for each meeting that you know you're in trouble | 23:35 |
| shauno | plus I used to work alongside him on another project, so I treat him a lot more 'familiar' than his position expects | 23:35 |
| shauno | it's all just a really bad combination, really | 23:35 |
| shauno | so we have some odd truce going on, where I join in his bi-weekly calls with india, in return for staying out of the rest of his meetings | 23:37 |
| penguin42 | haha | 23:38 |
| shauno | the sad thing is I think I'm meant to be trying to ally with him | 23:42 |
| shauno | because I want redundancy, and I think his ship is sinking | 23:42 |
| shauno | it's all weird :) | 23:42 |
| daftykins | shauno: erk, as in you're not allowed to provide input, but you're allowed to help him translate the foreign meetings? | 23:45 |
| shauno | no no no. I want to prevent him translating such meetings | 23:46 |
| shauno | having him translate nerd->manager->nerd is incredibly frustrating, because he has absolutely no idea what's he's talking about | 23:46 |
| shauno | eg, I found out our last 5 "security updates" were actually 5 failed attempts at the same update | 23:47 |
| daftykins | >_< | 23:47 |
| shauno | small details that are completely missed when they've been translated to waffle and back | 23:47 |
| daftykins | :D | 23:47 |
| * penguin42 wonders if shauno works for a tla | 23:48 | |
| daftykins | "the website is down" -> "the customer facing portion of the product has suffered a misalignment" | 23:48 |
| daftykins | sorry, i tried my best from thinking for 20 seconds but i just can't speak management | 23:48 |
| shauno | that would actually be an improvement | 23:48 |
| shauno | this is something I've been begging for. at the moment our system is completely monolithic | 23:49 |
| shauno | if one portion has an issue, the whole thing falls over | 23:49 |
| daftykins | :( | 23:50 |
| shauno | but yeah. coughing loudly whenever he's completely wrong seems to be my main role lately. it's not cool | 23:51 |
| shauno | but it does get me out of almost all meetings :) | 23:52 |
