| mappps | so is it in UK too? | 03:34 |
| mappps | i trasferred some money and it said 1 working day is why im wondering | 03:35 |
| ball | I don't know. I don't have a UK calendar this year. | 03:35 |
| ball | Usually I have one up in the study. | 03:35 |
| mappps | hm | 03:35 |
| ball | I should pay my satellite television bill this week. | 03:36 |

| ball | I am aware of Manchester. | 03:40 |
| mappps | no i mean wiltshire is manchester? | 03:40 |
| ball | No, Manchester's in the midlands I think. | 03:41 |
| mappps | where's wiltshire | 03:41 |
| ball | Central Southern England, though we consider ourselves "West Country" I think. | 03:41 |
| ball | ...which made Cornish frinds point and laugh. | 03:42 |
| mappps | oh | 03:42 |
| ball | friends* | 03:42 |
| mappps | nowhere near surrey then? | 03:42 |
| mappps | thats where im from orig | 03:42 |
| ball | I think my grandfather used to live in Surrey, on my mother's side. | 03:43 |
| mappps | nice place | 03:44 |
| * ball nods | 03:44 | |
| ball | I've been there once or twice. | 03:44 |
| ball | Not in recent years though. | 03:44 |
| mappps | i swapped surrey/london for gib | 03:44 |
| mappps | doubt il ever move back really | 03:44 |
| ball | mappps: I can relate to that. Even if I could afford to go back it would be a difficult transition. | 03:45 |
| mappps | yea | 03:45 |
| mappps | i haven;t lived with family for ~12 years (since uni) | 03:45 |
| mappps | no way i'd go back | 03:46 |
| mappps | and it's a super safe place here | 03:46 |
| mappps | like london muggings are normal..here it'd make front page news | 03:46 |
| * ball nods | 04:01 | |
| ball | Here they mostly just shoot you. | 04:01 |
| mappps | here it's just non existant | 04:02 |
| mappps | last month there was a murder..and everyone was worried | 04:02 |
| mappps | turned out the girlfriend murdered her kids boyfriend and killed herself | 04:02 |
| ball | Well that's unfortunate. | 04:08 |
| Knightwise | mornin | 05:12 |
| * ball waves | 05:15 | |
| Knightwise | heya ball ! hows it goin | 05:18 |
| ball | Not too bad. I'm anout to turn in. | 05:19 |
| ball | There are things I should be doing but I'm too tired to care. | 05:19 |
| Knightwise | just got up on this end of the blue sphere. | 05:19 |
| ball | Knightwise: That makes sense. | 05:19 |
| Knightwise | hahah :) I'm in my productive hour. That quiet hour before the rush starts is when I pound everyone down with my caffinated emails :p | 05:19 |
| * ball grins | 05:19 | |
| Knightwise | need to get my Raspberry pi 2 finalised today. | 05:27 |
| Knightwise | Was thinking of using it as a desktop by that is a little overkill. I have plenty of desktops and vms to play with. | 05:27 |
| ball | My Raspberry Pi is running at the office. | 05:32 |
| Knightwise | I have a raspberry pi 1 running as my main terminal machine. I ssh into it, vpn into it, it runs irssi, telegram, my calibre server etc | 05:33 |
| Knightwise | very pleased with it :) | 05:33 |
| ball | I like mine but I'm looking forward to the better NIC on the Raspberry Pi 2 | 05:35 |
| Knightwise | I'm gonna try to run Mate on mine. Always handy to have a gui , especially when I want to use it to drag new books into my calibre library | 05:36 |
| * Knightwise loves to read | 05:36 | |
| * ball nods | 05:37 | |
| ball | I should charge up my Kobo | 05:37 |
| Knightwise | I have a Kobo too. use it mostly in the summer to read outdoors | 05:37 |
| Knightwise | when I read indoors or at night I use my tablet | 05:38 |
| ball | I can understand that. | 05:38 |
| ball | I've not tried Calibre though. | 05:38 |
| Knightwise | its great , The web browser on my Kobo even iterfaces with it :) | 05:39 |
| Knightwise | so i can download books off the calibre webserver on my PI straight to my Kobo | 05:39 |
| ball | Nice. | 05:40 |
| ball | I should go to bed. | 05:41 |
| Knightwise | Get some sleep dude :) | 05:41 |
| ball | Thanks | 05:42 |
| ball | I have to be up in a little under five hours | 05:42 |
| Knightwise | I need my 8 hours or i'm a zombie | 05:42 |

| popey | there's a couple of ubuntu contributors who live on boats | 09:20 |
| zmoylan-pi | break out the cantenna... :-) | 09:20 |

| davmor2 | bigcalm: how do chap how's life? | 10:59 |
| popey | bigcalm: enjoying GTA5? :) | 11:01 |
| bigcalm | davmor2: not too shabby ta, yourself? | 11:03 |
| bigcalm | popey: yes. Loving it. Having to play in short bursts though. Otherwise I'd get sucked in for hours | 11:03 |
| popey | heh | 11:04 |
| davmor2 | bigcalm: a tiny bit busy but other than that grand thanks and looking forward to the caravan for the long weekend :) | 11:04 |
| bigcalm | Also, I had been close to rage quitting on the Rampage mission | 11:04 |
| popey | I dialed down the detail and it now runs at a decent framerate here | 11:04 |
| bigcalm | For the most part it looks fine to me. Little bit jerky in the city with lots happening though. Might dial it down as well | 11:05 |
| bigcalm | Love Trevor. He is so well written | 11:05 |
| bigcalm | That said, he also scares the crap out of me | 11:05 |
| bigcalm | davmor2: busy? But the release has happened. Surely you should be relaxing now | 11:05 |
| bigcalm | popey: have you tried the online bit yet? | 11:06 |
| popey | briefly | 11:06 |
| bigcalm | Same | 11:06 |
| popey | i have it at 720p which made a big difference | 11:06 |
| bigcalm | Are you popeydc, by any chance? | 11:06 |
| bigcalm | Interesting | 11:06 |
| popey | yes | 11:07 |
| popey | at 1080p i was running ~30 fps | 11:07 |
| popey | now it's 720p at ~70+ fps | 11:07 |

| popey | not getting 5* for crossing a bridge is nice | 11:08 |
| popey | stealing a helicopter and flying away is fun | 11:08 |
| popey | i do like the scammers who try to claim someone is being attacked and when you give chase they attack you | 11:09 |

| bigcalm | Makes sense | 11:25 |

| diplo | Would like it on the PC, but I don't think my old beast could run it | 11:25 |

| TwistedLucidity | "Because you hate freedom, Lenovo" | 11:37 |

| TwistedLucidity | popey: Site is so very, very s-l-o-w..... | 11:37 |
| popey | yes | 11:37 |
| TwistedLucidity | Is this a new recall? Because Lenovo have had to do this many, many times | 11:39 |
| ali1234 | any details on the actual fault? | 11:39 |
| popey | i have no idea, i got the link from foobarry last week iirc | 11:39 |
| TwistedLucidity | ali1234: All the previous ones have been about over-heating, fire, explosion, stealing your last Rolo | 11:39 |

| popey | the voxel thing reminds me of cube world | 12:32 |
| diddledan | I don't get why voxels are being so popular | 12:33 |
| diddledan | seems everyone and his dog wants to create a voxel game | 12:33 |
| awilkins | Because Minecraft did so well | 12:34 |
| awilkins | Have you seen Notch's house? | 12:35 |
| diddledan | also minecraft seems to be getting everyone to do "low res fctw" | 12:35 |
| diddledan | ftw** | 12:35 |
| zmoylan-pi | people don't want minecraft since ms bought it? | 12:35 |
| diddledan | I wonder what the long-term plan is for minecraft now ms own it | 12:35 |
| awilkins | Notch's House : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZhM56v9UVQ | 12:35 |
| awilkins | That's why there are so many voxel games | 12:36 |
| awilkins | The tail end of people going "Wowzer, that Minecraft thing is doing awfully well, isn't it?" and jumping on the bandwagon | 12:36 |
| awilkins | I doubt that people stopped liking Minecraft since MS bought it | 12:37 |
| zmoylan-pi | aren't ms adding downloadable content to minecraft? | 12:37 |
| zmoylan-pi | i've seen a few complaints already over that | 12:37 |
| diddledan | that house is way OTT | 12:37 |
| shauno | I don't think msft have done anything at all with it yet. the "complaints" are scaremongering | 12:38 |
| zmoylan-pi | if you were handed a few billion wouldn't you go for volcano lair or evil villan ship instead? :-) | 12:38 |
| shauno | not to say I trust msft much further than I could throw them, but waiting for them to actually do something before I whine about it :) | 12:38 |
| awilkins | I would find the house a bit much | 12:39 |
| diddledan | I don't think I'd like to live there | 12:39 |
| diddledan | I like cosy | 12:39 |
| awilkins | Community | 12:39 |
| diddledan | and community (no, wait, I'm a hermit, community doesn't really count) | 12:40 |
| awilkins | If I had unlimited money and Elon-Musk-like resources I'd have a town pad within walking distance of all the fun stuff, and a country pad with a nice kitchen garden | 12:40 |
| awilkins | And a hyperloop subway that went between them in < 10 minutes | 12:40 |
| zmoylan-pi | or a jetpack... | 12:41 |
| awilkins | Naah, practical Jetpack technology is basically impossible ATM | 12:41 |
| zmoylan-pi | ok an autogyro | 12:42 |
| zmoylan-pi | hipster helicopter :-) | 12:42 |

| diddledan | america are trying to pin a charge of unlicensed aircraft on a guy with an autogiro who landed on some green space outside their capitol building | 12:43 |
| zmoylan-pi | he was a postman and he was delivering letters... | 12:43 |
| diddledan | that's the guy | 12:43 |
| shauno | seems like one of the easier charges to make stick. they have some exemptions for ultralights but they all have geographic restrictions (built-up areas, airports, etc) | 12:45 |
| zmoylan-pi | not sure they ever managed to prosecute lawn chair larry | 12:46 |

| zmoylan-pi | with a horrendous safety record | 13:34 |
| zmoylan-pi | it's a bit of an f35 in budget terms... | 13:35 |

| daftykins | diddledan: two failed disks from the _same user!_ | 18:50 |
| daftykins | D: | 18:50 |
| diddledan | jeez | 18:51 |
| diddledan | you're getting silly with it :-p | 18:51 |
| daftykins | ;] | 18:51 |
| davmor2 | daftykins: well if you will put computers in magnets room you will have to expect this kinda thing | 18:57 |
| penguin42 | what are you doing with them - mri? | 18:57 |
| daftykins | no these are all helpees asking for support in #ubuntu | 18:58 |
| daftykins | i tend to go from "my system is a little slow..." to diagnosing a dead disk pretty quick XD | 18:58 |
| zmoylan-pi | does he work at the sledgehammer testing lab? | 18:58 |
| diddledan | I think daftykins either has shares in the disc companies OR he invents faults that aren't real | 19:05 |
| daftykins | :( | 19:06 |
| daftykins | *disk | 19:06 |
| diddledan | :-p | 19:06 |
| diddledan | no, disk is for floppies - disc is for hdds | 19:06 |
| davmor2 | shiny spinning platters? | 19:07 |
| daftykins | diddledan: you lie! | 19:07 |
| daftykins | disk is for square, disc is for round \o/ | 19:07 |
| diddledan | nope, it's the truth | 19:07 |
| daftykins | well, or rectangles | 19:07 |
| daftykins | -ular :/ | 19:08 |
| diddledan | disk is an abbreviation of diskette whereas disc is a circular thing | 19:08 |
| daftykins | i disagree | 19:08 |
| davmor2 | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive | 19:08 |

| daftykins | ah yes the finest resource known to man | 19:10 |
| foobarry | hello.. | 19:10 |
| daftykins | hi | 19:10 |
| diddledan | OED says disk for everything | 19:11 |
| davmor2 | daftykins: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/componentprofiles/p/p_hdd.htm | 19:11 |
| MartijnVdS | disque | 19:11 |
| davmor2 | http://www.amazon.co.uk/Generic-Hard-Disk-Drive-250GB/dp/B000OUI8QO | 19:11 |
| daftykins | why are you linking me to this crap 0o | 19:11 |
| foobarry | so there's some twitter feeds that have lots of dupes | 19:12 |
| diddledan | aah yes, it's obviously disc with a C for HDDs because windows uses C to indicate such | 19:12 |
| foobarry | i would like to write a twitter bot that retweets only unique stories and i can follow that instead | 19:12 |
| diddledan | i.e. C:\windows | 19:12 |
| foobarry | sound easyish? | 19:12 |
| diddledan | C:\ means disC:\ :-p | 19:12 |
| diddledan | I believe, also, that I've earned troll-of-the-day with that one :-D | 19:14 |
| davmor2 | daftykins: sorry it was for diddledan I was backing up your disk argument :D | 19:14 |
| davmor2 | like what I did there :D | 19:15 |
| diddledan | obviously disks are for KDE users | 19:15 |
| daftykins | kallthethings! | 19:16 |
| MartijnVdS | daftykins, davmor2, diddledan: your names confuse :P | 19:17 |
