=== Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away [02:26] can anyone else get to the bbc news site? [02:26] I seem to be stalling on loading images and javascripts and things [03:50] diddledan: wfm. Do you have a particularly broken link? [03:50] Also, http or https? [03:50] (I'm hitting bbc.com though) [04:36] hey === zmoylan-1i is now known as zmoylan-pi === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte [10:14] morning boys and girls. [10:23] hi [10:24] there [10:24] when doing ls -rtl [10:24] is it possible to see the complete th ? [10:37] like doing ls -rtl | less ? [11:07] * bashrc fixes emacs configuration [11:26] whats the song called... [11:26] it´s blabla oclock in soho.... [11:26] london band [11:26] old music === marcus_ is now known as Guest86584 [14:41] afternoon all [14:41] o/ [14:42] afternoon === marcus_ is now known as Guest30601 [16:11] my screen artifacts returned. All day last night my system was working normal and before a update (i think it was) i havest experienced screen artifacts for 4 months [17:42] damn, Amazon has started to understand me; it's offered me a 1kg bag of chocolate coffee beans [17:52] penguin42, tell them I want those! [17:53] I lurrrrv chocolate coffee beans! [17:55] SuperEngineer: http://www.amazon.co.uk/CAROL-ANNE-CHOCOLATE-COFFEE-BEANS/dp/B00CDW241Q/ref=sr_1_2?s=grocery&ie=UTF8&qid=1425750819&sr=1-2&keywords=chocolate+coffee+beans [17:57] penguin42, thank you [17:57] hi all [17:57] penguin42: hehe, you are powerless to resist! [17:57] SuperEngineer: Seems a reasonable price - if they're good [17:58] yup [17:59] * penguin42 had the first ice cream of the year today from an 'artisan' chocolate shop; very creamy, but frankly very unchocolatey :-( [18:00] it was oddly sunny down here, too [18:00] 12 deg C i believe [18:00] it was lovely here [18:01] It was gorgously sunny here... went for a pint, drank it outside in the sun... [18:01] :) [18:01] i went to a cafe up north overlooking a harbour, bay and the neighbouring islands [18:02] ...&commented "oh what a glourious day, except for that awful wind"... [18:02] just as a woman passing farted.... perfect timing methinka [18:02] *methinks [18:04] D: [18:07] tsk tsk naughty CentOS users trying to get support in #ubuntu [18:08] the bash prompt is such a giveaway 8D [18:22] penguin42, just ordered me some chocolate coffee beans. Fingers crossed :) [18:25] SuperEngineer: Haha sorry about that; if you're still awake after a week then they're probably good [18:31] Well Ubuntu MATE is running pretty well. It's old skool, but hey. [18:32] penguin42, I call chocolate coffee beans "chocolate driving means".. so here's hoping! [18:32] bashrc: I quite like it; my dad mostly runs mate [18:33] I ran Gnome 2 for years, so this is quite familiar. I expect it's also very lightweight and could run well on older hardware [18:33] SuperEngineer: haha; M&S used to do some a few years back where it was chocolate coffee remolded into a bean shape that were great; no crunchy core but still a big kick [18:34] stupid xchat-gnome opens this channel by default [18:34] i have no idea how to stop it [18:35] irssi ftw [18:35] i dont like monospace fonts on irc [18:35] because it looks like i rc ? [18:35] because its not code [18:37] arg reinstalling OS is very stressful :) [18:38] i should just go back to chatzilla [18:38] even though firefox crashes so often and i lose irc connection [18:39] i think the mistakes those that don't do OS installs often make, is they try to rush back. [18:40] i just did 14.04 -> .10 [18:41] why would you reinstall for that? [18:41] installed too much junk [18:41] well we all know what the word 'upgrade' really means ;) [18:41] i wouldn't fancy non-LTS personally :> [18:41] 'Upgrade'? [18:44] also, can i use docker or something to keep all my dev and DB stuff separate from OS ? [18:44] i dont want postgres running all the time (when i wanna play games) [18:44] eggs and baskets come to mind :) === m0nkey_|away is now known as m0nkey_ [20:37] has anyone got the magic to get five.tv to work ? [21:08] penguin42, I think it probably involves some kind of goat sacrifice [21:08] diddledan: Well, I've tried that.... [21:09] XD [21:10] I've got it playing on my Android Phone; but failed with Firefox (ubuntu and fedora) chrome (fedora) [21:11] pleasently surprised it's managing it on CM [21:12] I think it requires silverlight on desktop [21:12] diddledan: No, it seems to be Flash based these days [21:12] diddledan: but requires flash-drm [21:12] hmm [21:12] is flash more or less evil than silverlight these days? :-) [21:12] that is supposed to work out of the box [21:13] there are suggestions you need to install hald and *then* sacrifice a goat [21:13] I think that's really the only sane thing you can do with a goat once you've installed hald on it [21:13] the flash bundled with googley edition chrome should support drm on 14.10 [21:14] I thought 14.04 had received the relevant patches, too [21:14] diddledan: Yeh, that's why I installed chrome on ubuntu though, I tried it on fedora using chrome downloaded from google [21:14] diddledan: What needs the patches? [21:15] you need a free range goat beforre it works [21:15] penguin42, a library shipped with ubuntu [21:15] nss? [21:19] hmm [21:20] lol @ full-disclosure mailing list: there's queries over java 8u40 being released and people questioning why there was an out-of-band (not scheduled) bugfix release. it's got to the point that a dude from oracle has had to step-in and point out that it's a feature release that's been planned for over a year [21:21] oh dear :) [21:21] were they frothing at the mouth and demanding answers as to what it 'fixed' ? [21:21] hehe [21:23] ...here I am, brain the size of a planet.... [21:24] all the diodes down your left leg... [21:24] ;) [21:30] that statement was made when pluto was considered a planet... :-P [21:35] how many times have we re-classified pluto now? [21:36] 1 [21:36] really? [21:36] as I understand it, it just went from planet to dwarf-planet when we discovered there's other KBOs that are as big, if not bigger [21:46] I thought they upgraded it again and then down a second time [21:47] aww low battery already [21:47] :-o [21:48] * zmoylan-pi glances at phone i've used all day and it still registers 100% :-) [21:48] oh wrong chan [21:48] i dug out my Nintendo DSi :D [21:49] i tells ya that if nokia of yore had of made an electric car it would have the best range. :-) [21:50] turning the indicators on would have involved 16 menu options though... :-D [21:53] i quite liked the nintendo ds and the ds lite. very good solid hardware [21:59] it was claiming 50% battery when i fired it up just now, hasn't been used in years [21:59] ah the smart battery guage that guesses and adjusts over a batteries life... [22:11] :) [22:29] I still can't get anything from bbc.co.uk other than text [22:29] it just sits there spinning chrome's loading icon [22:30] wfm [22:30] hmm weird [22:30] everything else on the internet that I've tried works fine [22:31] just bbc can't load imagery and video [22:33] looks like js isn't loading eitehr [22:34] weird, it's just this computer (maybe the browser) [22:34] my mac loads it fine [22:35] matching DNS config? [22:35] should be - I do things with dhcp [22:48] both systems are resolving static.bbci.co.uk the same way [22:50] there's an error in the console from requirejs: http://requirejs.org/docs/errors.html#timeout <-- they helpfully don't mention the possibility that perhaps the server ain't responding [22:51] their two likely causes are 1) the path is wrong, or 2) the developer put two scripts of the same id [22:52] do you have some variant of https-everywhere? [22:52] noep [22:53] I wonder why bbc set a cookie with a browser version string embedded? [22:53] specifically: Mozilla/5.0%20(Windows%20NT%2010.0%3b%20WOW64)%20AppleWebKit/537.36%20(KHTML%2c%20like%20Gecko)%20Chrome/40.0.2214.111%20Safari/ [22:53] that's a browser string? it looks like ... all the browser strings [22:54] do you get a meaningful error if you go to one of the static assets directly? eg http://static.bbci.co.uk/weather/0.5.284/images/icons/individual_56_icons/en_on_light_bg/8.gif ? [22:54] that loads [22:54] this is pending: http://static.bbci.co.uk/frameworks/barlesque/2.83.4/orb/4/img/bbc-blocks-dark.png [22:54] so it can load them, but just doesn't want to ? [22:55] hm, that works here [22:55] but loads when I go there directly [22:56] ooh, you know what it is? [22:56] clean browser session? [22:56] bedtime. have fun with that :p [22:56] er i mean clean profile [22:56] shauno: nn sir :> [23:05] lulz https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NyShy_ey7Ds [23:05] Ubuntu MATE on PowerMac G5 [23:06] heh the 21:9 LCDs [23:07] yeah [23:07] what's the mention of apple firmware and lack of apple firmware all about? [23:08] mmm don't quite get that [23:08] me either [23:09] nor do i get messing with old PPC kit :D [23:12] nah, i dunno [23:12] might continue my win98 craptop finding mission this week :) [23:12] re: the java thread on full disclosure I mentioned - they're now onto talking about the ask toolbar being included gratis. someone pointed to a screenshot of the windows version http://i.imgur.com/82Tp2pp.png?1 which I'm curious as to the white bits being weirdly shaped and all over the shop [23:12] an ebay seller kindly has offered to take time to test serial + floppy on one i enquired about [23:13] diddledan: windows themeing, mmm [23:13] see it mess up a lot these days in 7 and 8 [23:13] that looks like it's vista? [23:13] although i wouldn't expect it to be that bad... but also i don't quite fancy running the installer to find out :D [23:14] same close control as 7, tough call [23:14] I can't actually remember 7 [23:16] same as that :D [23:17] cuteness alert: https://twitter.com/EmrgencyKittens/status/574309839679131648/photo/1 [23:17] awwwwwww [23:18] i can't click such links anymore, Mischief says she's all the cuteness i need [23:18] https://www.dropbox.com/s/mvepdm6sggtv2m2/IMG_20141129_020918.jpg?dl=0 [23:18] ;) [23:19] awwww [23:19] she wubs you [23:19] ooh the win10 VM wants to update its' store [23:19] daftykins: ever done an oem install of ubuntu? [23:19] merely the moggy equivalent of a mother wiping her childs face in front of their friends to embarrass them :-) [23:20] OEM you say? nope don't think so, not even sure what's involved? [23:20] k [23:20] zmoylan-pi, not only does the mother wipe her child's face, but she uses her spit to do so [23:20] its for oems (funnily) which lets you install, customize it then ship it [23:20] sadly i don't consider myself capable of supporting it well enough to try and put it in for someone [23:20] then when customer turns it on, it asks the usual questions - username, keyboard, locale etc [23:20] *nod* [23:20] that goes without saying diddledan, dial the embarrassment to 11 [23:21] is that 1 louder? [23:21] 1 ickier [23:21] aah [23:26] hrmm wonder what to do with this canon inkjet [23:26] can't be that great since it was free :D [23:28] the ink isn't [23:29] mmm just looked that up [23:29] even the cheap 3rd party cartridges are expensive [23:29] £17.49 for one cart of each [23:29] buy a laser [23:30] i don't even want a printer at all :) this cheap £208 Lenovo i3 laptop just came with it [23:30] it's ballast [23:30] a free anchor [23:30] so now i have to buy a boat? d'aww [23:31] use the styrofoam packaging to make a raft [23:32] hmmm [23:44] my my, SSD + double RAM to 8GB still comes to under £299 [23:49] new shiny hardware soon probably so shift the old 'junk' [23:50] hmmm? [23:50] skylake isn't for the second half of the year (intel's next greatest) [23:50] usually someything new and shiny in the spring [23:51] broadwell desktop might show up at some point [23:51] * penguin42 wishes for more faster cores
