Myrtti_bigcalm: too late for that, we have booked the flights (but nothing else) already08:54
bigcalmHayley and I did a coach trip to Belgium as our mini-moon and then a cruise to Norway the following year as our proper honeymoon08:54

TwistedLucidityWell that's weird. The first window of a byobu session connected from cywin won't accept Shift-Fn etc; and the Fn keys don't work at all from mRemoteNG.10:05
TwistedLucidityI blame Windows.10:05
zmoylan-piwell windows and function keys are weird now as some laptops think that function keys are for using browser and changing the volume...10:05
TwistedLucidityThat's more a fault of the OEMs10:06
TwistedLucidityWhen I demove byobu the guy using the Mac had loads of trouble with the key-combos.10:06
zmoylan-pitrue but ms could say stop that silliness if they weren't obsessed with adding more keys to keyboard with windows logo on it10:06
Myrtti_in case someone is looking into buying stylish mens flight socks, Nabee has a -50% sale on mens' sizes. http://nabeesocks.com/collections/mens?mc_cid=9f192b77a2&mc_eid=6b32bf68c610:08
TwistedLucidityAre those really compression hose?10:08
Myrtti_the markings on my legs after wearing them say yes10:09
Myrtti_(I've used them for years)10:09
TwistedLucidityAh, it only says that on the front page10:09
TwistedLucidityMeh, I get up and walk around. I do have Falke compression socks for the m'cycle though10:10
Myrtti_I've got elevated risk for DVI so I have ten pairs in my sock drawer and only some single pairs of woollen and normal bamboo socks10:11
TwistedLucidityPractice your handstands in th aisle!10:11
Myrtti_I wear them all the time...10:13
arseniphave to say i have a pile of compression socks at home10:14

foobarrycool. tried a couple days ago and wasn't there10:51
foobarrythx10:51
TwistedLucidityHuzzah! DNS works, now I just have a routing problem...10:54
TwistedLucidityI've had continual issues with Flash over the last few weeks. Keep getting whinges that "flashplugin-installer" has permanent failures.10:55
TwistedLucidityIt needs to die. And die now.10:55
penguin42yes a couple of cases where I've had to rerun the flashplugin-installer - I think it downloads from archives.canonical.om and occasionally has problems on it10:56
TwistedLucidityAnd now DNS is goosed again. I hate networking.11:01
davmor2TwistedLucidity: will you leave poor DNS alone, the poor Girl, Weird name though ;)11:08

davmor2foobarry: autoremove never removed old kernels till 14.04 iirc13:20
