directhex_that's not so bad, honestly09:33
directhex_it's a high res screen, and hard to replace09:34
Myrttialmost went to a place to have it changed while we were in London but someone said that I shouldn't rush into things. Well, that means that I'm now very much not rushing because this certainly is not London where I could have gotten it fixed the same day09:34
directhex_/o\09:35
directhex_lots of cobblers do screen repair too09:35

ali1234and king arthur had magic14:56
foobarrysounds like some pervy geeks dream14:56
ali1234i think the aliens might have been time travellers14:57
ali1234would have been on tv around 198414:57
bigcalm70s 80s or 90s?14:57
bigcalmOkay14:57
ali1234and it was a british show14:57
bigcalmhttp://www.imdb.com/list/ls002724091/14:58
ali1234it wasn't a kids show14:58
bigcalmThat changes matters a lot14:59
ali1234well, i mean it wasn't on kids TV14:59
ali1234it was like doctor who14:59
ali1234or merlin/atlantis that they show now14:59
foobarryah15:00
foobarryknights of god?15:03
ali1234yes that could very well be it15:04
foobarryhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knights_of_God15:05
ali1234yes that is definitely it15:05
ali1234there's a helicopter in the intro15:05
ali1234i was gonna say i thought there was a helicopter15:05
ali1234oh look there's the laser gun storm troopers15:06
ali1234and more black helicopters15:06
foobarryi never saw it15:07
ali1234apparently it was only ever shown once15:07
foobarryi have a lifelong habit of not really watching ITV15:07
foobarryit was canned due to lameness apparently15:07
mappslol15:07

foobarry:-|15:09
foobarryits very hard to deal with DDOS15:09
mappswell15:09
mappsI'm sure the likes of Google/twitter/facebook get targeted..no?15:09
foobarrybecause its very similar actually supplying a web service15:09
mappsnot sure what that means15:10
awilkinsBeating DDOS is really only possible if you have a large distributed infrastructure15:11
foobarryif you have a web service that is popular15:11
foobarrythen it supplies web pages to lots of different people15:12
foobarrya DDOS is very similar to that15:12
foobarrythe first D in DDOS suggests that there are various/many sources15:12
mappsya15:13
mappsyou mean because theyd have multiple servers multiple locations15:21
mappsi assumed betfair would too15:21
foobarryyeah sure,15:21
foobarrybut DDOS will eat them all15:21
foobarrygiven sufficient capacity15:21

ChunkzZwhat channels are you guys on, on freenode? I'm on 24.15:56
daftykinssome ubuntu, some Kodi... some chat15:56
popeyonly 49 now. trimmed down a bit15:57
ChunkzZwhat one's popey ?15:58
popeywat?15:58
popeyoh, which channels15:58
popeylots :)15:58
ChunkzZpic ?15:58
popeynah. I'd have to blur some out15:58
daftykinsChunkzZ: why don't you ask us what you're really after? because asking people what channels they're in isn't exactly... normal.15:59
ChunkzZdaftykins, I'm not after anything!!!!!!!!15:59
diddledanplus you can just /whois them15:59
ChunkzZpopey, okay no worries15:59
daftykinsooook.15:59
Laneynot on freenode you can't16:00
daftykinssure you can, depends on those channel modes though16:00
diddledanoh fair enough, Laney , I just assumed having never tried it16:00
Laney(by default)16:00
Laneyno, it depends on user mode +i which is on by default16:00
daftykinsoh ok16:00
daftykinsthings used to be much different on Quakenet16:01
ChunkzZdaftykins, you're the 1 who ripped in to me about kodi?16:01
daftykinsi don't have a clue what you mean16:02
ChunkzZyou were on about some illegal stuff, remmeber now?16:03
ChunkzZstreaming is illegal etc etc etc or whatever shit you said. :p16:03
ChunkzZsorry excuse my French16:03
diddledano_O16:04
diddledanstreaming isn't inherently illegal. it's only illegal if you're streaming copyright works that you haven't got license for16:04
daftykinsoh probably, enforcing channel policy in #kodi of not permitting illegal addons or repos to be spoken of16:04
daftykinswell regardless of if that was me, another channel isn't the place to discuss that.16:05
diddledano...k...16:05
diddledanguess he didn't like the answer?16:06
ChunkzZdaftykins, diddledan https://torrentfreak.com/anti-piracy-group-admits-streaming-movies-isnt-illegal-130624/ that is all see ya16:06
daftykinssadly #kodi attracts a lot of idiots who aren't even aware of what they're being told not to discuss, so they start throwing out links like the above that are trying to justify their actions... when the main issue is simply that in #kodi the naughty repos and add-ons are off topic :)16:07
daftykinsunfortunately a lot of people out there make money by loading up little devices with these copyright infringing addons then sell them with Kodi as their base, which then make them come to #kodi when something doesn't work16:08

awilkinsIt mails things to GMail just fine16:16
awilkinsEven though GMail was initially canning it as spam (switched to my DNS mail relay and it's in my inbox)16:16
diddledanawilkins: afaicr outlook andpreviously hotmail require that you submit your spf details via a webform because microsoft don't trust standards16:17

ali1234the old one was too18:53
ali1234nintendo have been using ARM since the gameboy advance18:53
directhex_davmor2: your comment on spec is more true than you realise19:35
directhex_davmor2: the "2ds" cut-price 2d-only 3ds variant is literally a larger lcd with a bunch of it hidden behind plastic, as it's cheaper than 2 separate smaller screens19:35
