| Myrtti | m0nkey_: photos tomorrow, we're browsing through them first | 00:03 |
|---|---|---|
| Myrtti | 9GB's worth... | 00:03 |

| daftykins | they all suffer from workshop dust-itis | 00:04 |
| m0nkey_ | Myrtti, about time! :-) Been waiting for them! | 00:05 |
| intrbiz | daftykins: rather you than me | 00:11 |
| daftykins | intrbiz: why-so? easy peasy :D | 00:11 |
| intrbiz | daftykins: dust allergy :( | 00:12 |
| daftykins | ah | 00:12 |
| daftykins | how far do you have to go with protecting yourself from that? if you were in a room with a dusty floor would you notice? | 00:13 |
| intrbiz | daftykins: urm it's only an issue when very dusty, so when cleaning servers out or dusting the house I tend to take a hayfever tablet | 00:14 |
| intrbiz | daftykins: or more to the point, when distrubing the dust | 00:14 |
| daftykins | ah ok | 00:15 |
| daftykins | no clean rooms then :D | 00:15 |
| intrbiz | I tend not to tidy around often, but that is more laziness | 00:16 |
| * zmoylan-pi wonders if i still have a manky pcs i cleaned out folder... | 00:17 | |

| * SuperEngineer is annoyed with the beeb - they block get-iplayer but don't provide a linux download - only a Windows & Mac version - really beeb, you think that matches your charter? I don't. hurumph! | 12:46 | |
| penguin42 | SuperEngineer: Oh the Beeb have been doing that for 100 years+ since their choice of which TV standard to use in the days of early TV sets | 12:47 |
| zmoylan-pi | good old mechanical baird tv :-) | 12:50 |
| penguin42 | spin up the nipkov disk! | 12:51 |
| SuperEngineer | hmmm- have a look at theitr charter - they are required to provide *full* access - withiut bias | 12:52 |
| SuperEngineer | *without | 12:52 |
| zmoylan-pi | 'withiut bias' reads like proper bbc english :-) | 12:53 |
| SuperEngineer | yes, one fully agrees the previous staement | 12:53 |
| SuperEngineer | lol | 12:53 |
| * SuperEngineer takes plum out of cheek | 12:54 | |
| * zmoylan-pi prints that on a sign and using sticky back plastic attaches it to the wall | 12:54 | |
| SuperEngineer | ...don't forget to show us the one you made earlier | 12:54 |
| SuperEngineer | The question is, however, who/what/when/why did they change their tolerance of get-iplayer | 12:57 |
| SuperEngineer | ...was it the same a*hole who also said, "make'em suffer - don't even provode a linux download | 12:58 |
| SuperEngineer | *provide | 12:58 |
| SuperEngineer | hmmm - trying to [buffering] watch last week's grand [buffering] prix via i- [buffering] player really [buffering] sucks | 13:19 |
| popey | does get_iplayer no longer work? | 13:28 |
| zmoylan-pi | well the bbc has a blind spot when it comes to technology, their journalists think that only iphones exist for some reason | 13:28 |
| Myrtti | SuperEngineer: do you have the github version | 13:32 |
| Myrtti | the one from the repos stopped working ages ago methinks | 13:32 |
| popey | yeah, latest seems to work okay here | 13:38 |
| SuperEngineer | Myrtti, actually no - I have the repo version | 13:46 |
| Myrtti | yeah, that's why it doesn't work | 13:47 |
| Myrtti | BBC nixed an API the repo version used | 13:47 |
| SuperEngineer | hurumph! | 13:47 |
| * SuperEngineer avoids asking the obvious ["then why is it still in the repos - coz that would be annoying, wouldn't it] :D | 14:06 | |
| popey | file a bug | 14:06 |
| popey | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/get-iplayer/+bugs | 14:07 |
| popey | oh look, bugs | 14:07 |
| SuperEngineer | SURELY NOT! | 14:07 |
| SuperEngineer | & who hit my caps lock - oh, yeah, me! doh! | 14:08 |
| popey | someone needs to update it in vivid, then backport it | 14:10 |
| popey | or just remove it if nobody is maintaining it | 14:11 |
| * popey looks at Daviey | 14:11 | |
| SuperEngineer | The best thing about IRC is the fact you don't actually use your mouth - especially useful when you've just burnt your upper lip [hashtag damn, that hurts!] | 14:54 |

| foobarry | back from my nerdfest modelshow | 17:18 |
| foobarry | full on scale model geekery | 17:18 |
| foobarry | rather akin to oggcamp/linux geekery i've seen. seems to attract the same types | 17:19 |
| penguin42 | what types of model? | 17:38 |
| _TROLL_ | ubuntu is crap | 17:42 |
| Myrtti | ok. | 17:43 |
| penguin42 | ah a nice honest troll | 17:43 |
| foobarry | all sorts | 17:45 |

| foobarry | at least troll had the decency to annoucne himself as troll | 17:45 |
| shauno | the rugby seems awefully exciting, but I've no idea what's going on | 18:55 |
| SuperEngineer | that, *that*, was one of the best games of rugby I've watched in ages... no ^N cup [^ points short] - but wow! | 18:58 |
| SuperEngineer | *6N ... & 6... and whoops somethings happened with keyboard.. guess I'g better go changre the batteries! | 19:00 |
| shauno | not sure I've ever seen them look so sad about beating france though | 19:02 |
| SuperEngineer | now lets try... 6! &6! .... wow, new batteries make a wee bit of difference :D | 19:02 |
| SuperEngineer | shauno - it's a shame, but they should be proud | 19:02 |
| shauno | I only pay attention so I know what to say at work :/ | 19:03 |
| SuperEngineer | shame on you! | 19:03 |
| shauno | :) | 19:04 |
| shauno | rugby for me is tainted with some very dark memories of school | 19:04 |
| SuperEngineer | ...confuse them, tell them at work that you thought Sweden played the best match :D | 19:04 |
| shauno | as an englishman living in ireland, letting them win but giving them a fright is quite a convenient narative | 19:05 |
| SuperEngineer | hmmmmm | 19:05 |
| SuperEngineer | ever thought of becoming a politician ;) | 19:06 |
| shauno | I couldn't do that. my poor mother would die of shame | 19:07 |
| SuperEngineer | :) | 19:07 |
| SuperEngineer | [rugby players wearing suits mostly like bouncers] | 19:10 |
| shauno | [I wonder if he knows we can hear him thinking] | 19:11 |
| SuperEngineer | .................... I can't! | 19:11 |
| SuperEngineer | In retrospect, all it would have taken for England to get those final 6 points was a vet with a sedative air dart gun in the crowd - shame on all you vets - you let us down! | 19:25 |
| KrimZon | is there any way to install ubuntu server 14.04 via usb stick? | 19:25 |
| KrimZon | I've had a quick go but | 19:26 |
| KrimZon | using unetbootin the installer complains that it can't find the cd | 19:26 |
| penguin42 | KrimZon: You should just be able to dd it straight to the stick | 19:28 |
| penguin42 | KrimZon: If your usb stick is /dev/sdX then dd if=ubuntu14.04.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=1024k note don't put the '1' at the end if it's /dev/sdX1 | 19:29 |
| KrimZon | aha, thanks, i'll give that a go | 19:30 |
| KrimZon | this looks more promising | 19:36 |
| penguin42 | KrimZon: Out of interest what machine are you booting it on? | 19:39 |
| KrimZon | an atom d510 motherboard i bought in 2010 or 2011 | 19:48 |
| KrimZon | installing over ubuntu server 10.04 | 19:48 |
| penguin42 | ok | 19:50 |
| KrimZon | i can't remember the model name | 19:51 |
| KrimZon | and the manual isn't in the easiest-to-dig-out box of manuals | 19:51 |
| penguin42 | no no, don't worry about it | 19:52 |
| KrimZon | it's old anyway, and last time I installed it I plugged a CD drive in | 19:55 |
| penguin42 | '10 isnt old! | 19:56 |
| KrimZon | it's old enough that i was worried some devices wouldn't boot from usb | 19:59 |
| KrimZon | unless I was thinking of something else | 20:03 |
| penguin42 | nah, not in '10 | 20:04 |
