daftykins | used to enjoy it but gaming on PC is such a joke these days | 06:44 |
daftykins | having said that i'm tempted by treating myself to a completely new PC build :) | 06:44 |
mapps | i dont bother with pc games | 06:47 |
mapps | too much effort..new game..great my gfx card sucks ont play it etc | 06:47 |
daftykins | exactly | 06:50 |
daftykins | in fact if i did a new build, i'd use the PSU and card from this one... but it's ancient so it'd suck | 06:50 |
daftykins | er not this one, but mine :D | 06:50 |
daftykins | hey mapps you heard anything by Tove Lo? :) | 06:50 |
daftykins | music wise | 06:50 |

daftykins | my brother is always buying the very latest Apple, such a mug | 07:05 |
mapps | heh | 07:05 |
daftykins | this is what's making me hesitant about dropping £500 on a PC upgrade really, i'd still be doing the same things :) | 07:07 |
daftykins | i just know modern kit is now 4x faster than mine - plus it's giving some grief with age now | 07:07 |

_Ridgewing | Moin Moin, Good morning \o/ | 07:18 |
mapps | morning | 07:19 |
_Ridgewing | You at UOS ? | 07:19 |
mapps | whats that | 07:19 |
_Ridgewing | http://summit.ubuntu.com/ | 07:19 |
* _Ridgewing opens a fresh bag of galaxy cookies that cost 5p from Tresco. | 07:20 | |
mapps | nice | 07:20 |
mapps | bargain | 07:20 |
mapps | so what is it _Ridgewing | 07:20 |
mapps | online thing..a forum a webcast? | 07:21 |
_Ridgewing | kinda | 07:21 |
mapps | so if i registered what would i see..how do i participate | 07:21 |
_Ridgewing | It's a dev summit where you can log onto gogle hangout and participate in the community tacks etc .. e.g. This was yesterday: http://summit.ubuntu.com/uos-1511/meeting/22620/community-roundtable-ii/ | 07:22 |
_Ridgewing | (just follow the links and participate on irc. | 07:22 |
* _Ridgewing puts his cookie monster badge on :) | 07:23 | |
mapps | thanks | 07:23 |
mapps | those galaxy cookies are nice they sell them here in morrisons | 07:23 |
mapps | have you had the bounty ones? | 07:23 |
_Ridgewing | Yeah, originally cost £1.37 but I got five bags of four cookie (american big style-y)for 5p each . Yay \o/ | 07:24 |
_Ridgewing | **cookies | 07:24 |
_Ridgewing | The bounty ones are like cocaine for me. Too much and I won't fit in my one-sie. | 07:25 |
daftykins | if you were a FOSS lover you'd be greeted by a requirement to install flash in order to watch | 07:25 |
daftykins | which is quite frankly laughable :) | 07:25 |
mapps | hahaha | 07:26 |
mapps | a one-sie?! | 07:26 |
_Ridgewing | shuttleworth says you have to take "risks", these days with things like pepper flash. | 07:26 |
daftykins | _Ridgewing: i doubt he said that at all :P | 07:27 |
_Ridgewing | mapps: There are suggies available, but not at the moment: http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/jml-snuggie-blanket-10-instore-at-asda-646718 | 07:28 |
mapps | heh | 07:28 |
_Ridgewing | **Snuggies | 07:28 |
_Ridgewing | daftykins: He did say you have to take risks in the keynote. want me to find it for ya ? | 07:29 |
daftykins | regarding flash specifically? :P | 07:29 |
_Ridgewing | No. | 07:29 |
daftykins | right, thought so | 07:29 |
_Ridgewing | k | 07:30 |
daftykins | but yeah being Canonical then requiring flash on your summit events, hilarious | 07:32 |
_Ridgewing | daftykins: I take it you don't 'hangout' much, then ? | 07:32 |
* _Ridgewing waves his little Manx Flag. | 07:35 | |
daftykins | never used Hangouts no, resist it on my phone too - still on the standard SMS app in android land :P | 07:37 |
_Ridgewing | SMS .. is that texting ? | 07:39 |
mapps | yea | 07:40 |
* _Ridgewing wonders if ppl stil send Txts | 07:40 | |
mapps | europeans say SMS more | 07:40 |
mapps | brits just say text | 07:40 |
_Ridgewing | Really ? That's so 2005 | 07:40 |
mapps | ive seen hangouts on my phone too..never used | 07:40 |
_Ridgewing | At least use telegram | 07:40 |
mapps | people use snapchat..whatsapp kik telegram viber etc | 07:40 |
_Ridgewing | That's a good question: I know snapchat is available for Linux (it has an API) - what do-we need to do to get it on Touch ? | 07:41 |
* _Ridgewing wipes the cookie crumbs away from keyboard. | 07:42 | |
mapps | =] | 07:42 |
mapps | no clue | 07:42 |
mapps | never used it | 07:42 |
daftykins | i have to use SMS for some holdouts, yeah | 07:42 |
daftykins | typically on whatsapp | 07:43 |
daftykins | heard that telegram name lurking around, no idea what benefits it has though | 07:43 |
mapps | encrypted | 07:43 |
mapps | i believe | 07:43 |
daftykins | ah so for the tinfoil hat crowd, great ;) | 07:43 |
mapps | but for most peoples convos its irrelevant | 07:43 |
_Ridgewing | I'm sure I wouldn't have an eHarmony girlfriend if it wasn't for Snap chat available on Linux. She specifically stated she was a snapchat addict. [Fair enough] | 07:44 |
daftykins | see, i heard that one was for school kids sexting each other originally ;) | 07:44 |
daftykins | no point over whatsapp imo | 07:44 |
mapps | yea | 07:45 |
mapps | eharmony eh | 07:45 |
_Ridgewing | yeps. | 07:45 |
_Ridgewing | Only cost a grand in subscription/s. | 07:45 |
_Ridgewing | But I'm in Lurve | 07:45 |
* _Ridgewing blinks | 07:46 | |
mapps | lol | 07:46 |
_Ridgewing | What am doing telling you my juicy bits, anyway - This is a tech channel !!!!!! | 07:46 |
mapps | full of fakes and transexuals on dating sites | 07:46 |
mapps | ive been on pof and yea uhh | 07:47 |
_Ridgewing | eHarmony is abit more softcore IMHO. | 07:47 |
mapps | loads of fake profiles nice pics clearly stolen and then guys that are now girls..had a message off them before | 07:47 |
mapps | not for me ta | 07:47 |
_Ridgewing | I take it "ta" is tea, then ? | 07:49 |
mapps | ta like thanks | 07:49 |
_Ridgewing | Oh Ok, but what your favourite type of tea-bag ? | 07:50 |
mapps | http://www.tv.com/shows/supergirl/ | 07:50 |
mapps | green tea with honey=] | 07:50 |
* _Ridgewing prefers She-ra to Supergirl. | 07:51 | |
_Ridgewing | she-ra was all about eternity - supergirl is all about muscles. | 07:51 |
mapps | decent enoughratings | 07:52 |
mapps | i watch lots of tv;D | 07:52 |

_Ridgewing | I had a haircut yesterday- and I felt like a new man ! | 07:53 |
daftykins | ooh already an hour into opening time! | 07:53 |
daftykins | i've been debating losing the pony tail :P | 07:54 |
* _Ridgewing shudders | 07:54 | |
mapps | =] | 07:55 |
_Ridgewing | Do we have any Corbyn fans here ? | 07:55 |
mapps | not me | 07:55 |

_Ridgewing | I did apply for reddit funding recently. | 07:57 |
diplo | How are we all this rather sh*te morning | 07:57 |
_Ridgewing | **CAnonical funding | 07:57 |

mapps | whats that _Ridgewing | 07:57 |
daftykins | not bad here ty, ooh yeah it does look rather nasty out there | 07:58 |
diplo | I used to wait 20 mins before I could get to work, boot up, go make a brew and open all my daily applications and do nothing | 07:58 |
diplo | Yep exactly daftykins :D | 07:58 |
_Ridgewing | mapps: http://community.ubuntu.com/help-information/funding/ | 07:58 |
daftykins | :D | 07:58 |
mapps | and re reddit i just mean unless i sit there refreshing how would u keep up with a topic | 07:58 |
_Ridgewing | Right - trading time ... | 07:58 |
daftykins | diplo: i really can't stand being on a machine without one now :( ruins you like proper resolution screens, then multi screens | 07:58 |
mapps | same as twitter, i follow some accounts but notifications alays has like 10000 | 07:59 |
mapps | how can you keep up with it all unless constantly checking | 07:59 |
diplo | I need more, tried the one from this lappy in my D820 dell at home | 08:00 |
diplo | Didn't recognise it :( | 08:00 |
diplo | mapps: You just don't care what you missed :) | 08:01 |
mapps | =] | 08:01 |
diplo | That's how I do it, I have lists and add people I like to keep on top of in the list, so have 5 lists | 08:01 |
daftykins | diplo: non recognised o0 still a SATA machine? might need a BIOS update perhaps | 08:02 |
diplo | yeah there is one update | 08:02 |
diplo | No mention of it though | 08:02 |
diplo | But reading online others have had luck with drives, supposedly intel ones work/recognised beter | 08:02 |
diplo | better* | 08:02 |
daftykins | sometimes you get lucky :) i did a RAM upgrade in a Dell that claimed no benefits but it made new RAM POST ok \o/ | 08:02 |
daftykins | which did you get? | 08:03 |
diplo | Samsung Evo 850 250gb, work bought it for me so didn't choose per se | 08:03 |
daftykins | ah yeah | 08:04 |
daftykins | mmm not a bad choice at all | 08:04 |
diplo | Oh good, as I am sooooo soooo far out of the hardware game it's ridiculous | 08:04 |
MooDoo | morning all | 08:05 |
daftykins | only £65 odd for that one too | 08:08 |
daftykins | MooDoo: gm o/ | 08:08 |
diplo | yeah it was a bargain, I want to spuce the speed of my home laptop though | 08:12 |
daftykins | oh yeah i think we may've spoken about its' specs in the past | 08:12 |
diplo | Yeah, that's two I've tried now a hybrid and this one | 08:13 |
diplo | Only bios updater is windows too :/ | 08:14 |
daftykins | hmm, freeDOS on a flash drive ;D | 08:15 |
_Ridgewing | Are you looking for an SSD drive ? | 08:16 |
diplo | If I remember correctly I may have done that before... wish I knew someone with some spare drives to test :D | 08:16 |
diplo | Yeah for an *old* laptop | 08:16 |
_Ridgewing | k .. hangon ... | 08:16 |
_Ridgewing | £54.99 http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/sandisk-ultra-ii-2-5-internal-ssd-240-gb-54-99-pcworld-2305892 | 08:17 |
daftykins | i'd go crucial BX100 for a budget option maybe | 08:17 |
daftykins | sandisk, not so hot. | 08:17 |
diplo | Yeah, I just don't want to spend the money and it won't work, not the flushest guy with money being a single dad :D | 08:18 |
diplo | If I'd tried this Evo and it had worked I'd have bought one already | 08:18 |
diplo | Just got a UPS for work PC, todays task is to get it to email/Telegram on powerfailure, unfortunately it's only usb connected | 08:20 |
_Ridgewing | Is that a power-back up kinda thing, then ? | 08:20 |
diplo | yeah | 08:20 |
_Ridgewing | cool. | 08:20 |
daftykins | diplo: http://uk.crucial.com/ have a model picker so you can guarantee compatibility | 08:22 |
daftykins | free return if it doesn't work \o/ | 08:22 |
_Ridgewing | They have good returns (crucial.com) But there certainly not the budget option. | 08:23 |
diplo | daftykins: thanks, looking now | 08:23 |
daftykins | np :) | 08:24 |
diplo | Only shows memeory | 08:25 |
diplo | :P | 08:25 |
daftykins | aww | 08:27 |
_Ridgewing | Why doesn't this work ? http://tinyurl.com/uukstat | 08:36 |
diplo | domain doesn't resolve | 08:37 |
diplo | www or non www | 08:38 |
SuperMatt | it's not that the domain doesn't resolve, it's that port 80 is not open on ip 85.119.82.16 | 08:40 |
SuperMatt | nmap lists the firewall rule as closed, instead of filtered, and I can see port 22 is open, so it's probably that httpd/apache/nginx is down, rather than firewall rules locking it down | 08:41 |
diplo | heh, hadn't gone that far to check | 08:43 |
diplo | Good work :D | 08:43 |
SuperMatt | I'm just breaking out my l337 ex-Rackspace skills | 08:44 |
daftykins | :) | 08:44 |
daftykins | hang on a minute, didn't you chat on here when you got that job? doesn't seem like all that long ago? | 08:45 |
daftykins | mmm gingerbread latte | 08:46 |
_Ridgewing | My domain resolves : http://wilywerewolf.com/ | 08:48 |
daftykins | oof, that'll be out of date very quick | 08:49 |
daftykins | hope you only picked one year :) | 08:49 |
_Ridgewing | Just not sure what to do with it. | 08:49 |
_Ridgewing | Yep, I didn't even register it with my real name Hey-Ho domain-monster ! | 08:49 |
_Ridgewing | I want to get discourse running, but not sure how ? | 08:50 |
_Ridgewing | Plus, I need shopping cookies. | 08:50 |
_Ridgewing | and bounty cookies. | 08:50 |
daftykins | you're not that redtape fellow from a while back are you? | 08:51 |
_Ridgewing | In fact all types of cookies are acceptable, to me. | 08:51 |
_Ridgewing | daftykins: Why ? | 08:51 |
daftykins | curious. | 08:51 |
_Ridgewing | Well, I'm curious that your curious, too. | 08:52 |
_Ridgewing | :) | 08:53 |
daftykins | i'll take it as a yes then. | 08:57 |
_Ridgewing | daftykins: dunno, describe him to me . | 08:58 |
daftykins | sorry, can't be bothered to play that game. | 09:01 |
_Ridgewing | fair enough, but I think your barking up the wrong tree. | 09:01 |
daftykins | ok | 09:01 |
_Ridgewing | I'm mostly a Kubuntu fan. | 09:02 |
* _Ridgewing is doing the PR and everything. | 09:02 | |
daftykins | i installed that in a VM the other day, i find it weird looking | 09:03 |
_Ridgewing | what the wallpaper , or what ? | 09:03 |
_Ridgewing | seems a_lot more solyd to me. | 09:03 |
_Ridgewing | **solid | 09:04 |
daftykins | i'm in a tech channel on IRC, i'm not judging an OS by its' WALLPAPER! | 09:05 |
_Ridgewing | ok, no need to get the hump. Hump day was so yesterday, :) | 09:06 |
daftykins | just pointing out how ridiculous your claim was :) | 09:08 |
daftykins | or query even | 09:08 |
daftykins | nah every UI element really, it's grown up a bit since i last saw it though | 09:08 |
daftykins | but 1.2GB RAM used at boot? that one's been at the cookies | 09:08 |
_Ridgewing | So it's basically the RAM overhead, then ? - well It's not for your average 2004 laptop, I guess. | 09:17 |
daftykins | no that's an aside | 09:17 |
_Ridgewing | go on ... | 09:18 |
_Ridgewing | we need feedback. | 09:18 |
daftykins | no, you don't | 09:18 |
daftykins | i was being told just the other day by a guy who considered joining the kubuntu dev team until he saw how they're just glorified debian repackagers :) | 09:19 |
daftykins | er, just how iffy the dev on that one seems | 09:19 |
_Ridgewing | One of the dev has a Patreon page if you are interested ? https://www.patreon.com/sgclark?ty=h | 09:20 |
ali1234 | _Ridgewing: KDE has huge problems with alignment - i have to agree it makes everything look weird | 09:20 |
_Ridgewing | right, got it - I shall pass that on. | 09:20 |
SuperMatt | daftykins: yes, it was only 21 months since I started at Rackspace, but I quit last week for something a little more down to earth | 09:21 |
daftykins | SuperMatt: ah-har! wow almost 2 years :S | 09:21 |
diplo | Whatcha doing now SuperMatt ? | 09:28 |
SuperMatt | I'm working for a company called Sporting Index, doing infrastructure stuff | 09:30 |
diplo | Cool, a bit slow paced ? | 09:31 |
SuperMatt | so this week I have mostly been working on zabbix | 09:31 |
SuperMatt | yeah, lovely and slow paced | 09:31 |
daftykins | rackspace was a bit high pressure and time based eh? | 09:32 |
daftykins | i was just glancing at their careers page, heh | 09:32 |
MooDoo | glad you're enjoying yourself SuperMatt :) | 09:44 |

daftykins | how's brobostigon this fine morning? | 10:13 |
brobostigon | my eczema could be better, and you? | 10:13 |
MooDoo | oh no - https://blogs.fsfe.org/jonas/?p=30 a sad day indee | 10:14 |
daftykins | brobostigon: doh! a friend gets that big time on the island, but when he lived in England it all went away - sea air! all good here ty :) | 10:14 |
brobostigon | daftykins: i find moutains are good as well. | 10:15 |
daftykins | MooDoo: :( | 10:18 |
daftykins | evil cancer | 10:20 |
daftykins | dear Asus, please speed up your UK website | 10:20 |
diplo | Good luck daftykins, it's been awful for years! | 10:22 |
MooDoo | daftykins: yeah i know :( | 10:22 |
daftykins | diplo: :D glad it's not just my funny island then | 10:23 |
daftykins | just ogling my likely new choice: http://www.asus.com/uk/Motherboards/Z170-PRO/specifications/ | 10:24 |
daftykins | proper intel gigabit LAN, proper intel USB 3.1 controller | 10:24 |
diplo | I sooooo need a new Pc at home, well everything really :) | 10:25 |
daftykins | :D | 10:26 |
daftykins | you can have my core 2 quad once i upgrade ;) | 10:26 |
diplo | Still runs steam though | 10:26 |
diplo | Mines a old Dell workstation, core2duo something with 4 or 6gb of ram | 10:26 |
diplo | More than anything I'd like to be able to play newer games and rip dvd's a lot quicker | 10:27 |
daftykins | mmm you could definitely benefit from a more modern intel i3/i5/i7 with intel quicksync | 10:28 |
daftykins | that's great for the DVD transcoding | 10:28 |
diplo | Yup, stopped using it at home for nearly 2 years :D | 10:29 |
diplo | Switched it on for the kids for Minecraft on the PC, last windows update was like Jan 2013 :D | 10:29 |
daftykins | yeeouch! | 10:30 |
diplo | Wasn't insecure as it hadn't been powered on :) | 10:30 |
SuperMatt | I'll be honest, you should upgrade to windows 10. It's good. Like, really good | 10:30 |
diplo | I just didn't feel like doing computers at home anymore | 10:30 |
MooDoo | I've only got a laptop but we're having an extension so I'm building a new PC for streaming games etc | 10:30 |
diplo | I still don't like it SuperMatt, will stay with 7 for now | 10:30 |
SuperMatt | If I could only have a good SSH client on it, I would genuniely use it for my day to day | 10:31 |
diplo | I'm debating for the same reason MooDoo | 10:31 |
SuperMatt | I really don't like putty | 10:31 |
MooDoo | SuperMatt: wait for SSH to be bult into powershell :D | 10:31 |
SuperMatt | yeah, I was just about to say that | 10:31 |
MooDoo | diplo: :) | 10:31 |
diplo | I use mputty SuperMatt :) | 10:31 |
diplo | SecureCRT is OK, but not free | 10:31 |
MooDoo | diplo: I stream via twitch at the moment via my xbox one :) | 10:32 |
daftykins | xbox one \o/ | 10:32 |
diplo | Did I see a vid from you the other day ? Destiny ? | 10:32 |
daftykins | MooDoo: looking forward to the new OS on the 12th? i am :) | 10:32 |
SuperMatt | I think waiting for power shell is th ebest bet for me | 10:32 |
daftykins | on an xbox? XD | 10:33 |
MooDoo | daftykins: ah wondered when it was being release, not fussed really as long as I can stream and play games :) | 10:33 |
daftykins | :) | 10:34 |
daftykins | should be waaaaaay faster to do most things | 10:34 |
daftykins | plus xbox 360 backwards compatibility comes \o/ | 10:34 |
MooDoo | well i'm a MS fanboy any way so I'm sure it's going to rock! | 10:34 |
daftykins | ^5! :) | 10:35 |
daftykins | i love win10 streaming from it | 10:35 |
MooDoo | :) | 10:35 |
daftykins | i can play the games up here at my desk | 10:35 |
daftykins | xbox down in the lounge downstairs | 10:35 |
MooDoo | daftykins: I'm wireless laptop so it doesn't work over wireless | 10:35 |
daftykins | sure it does! | 10:35 |
daftykins | i've had my laptop streaming over 130Mbps 'n' | 10:35 |
daftykins | maybe not on the 'very high' setting, but it does admirably | 10:36 |
MooDoo | hmmm will need to look into it as my laptop won't discover the xbox one | 10:36 |
daftykins | is it possible your router / WAP has wireless isolation configured? so it can't see wired devices? unless they're both wireless. | 10:36 |
MooDoo | i'll look into that :) | 10:37 |
MooDoo | daftykins: ah looks like I can just create a new static route in my dd-wrt router and that should fix it | 10:38 |
MooDoo | daftykins: or I'll just plug in a ethernet over power adapter :D | 10:40 |
daftykins | :D | 10:40 |

diplo | My 360 RROD'd last weekend :( | 11:10 |
daftykins | d'aww, long out of warranty? | 11:11 |
daftykins | a friend of mine claims 100% success rate on applying the GPU heatsink bolt application fix, very cheap but a fair amount of time to do | 11:12 |
diplo | Yeah it is | 11:12 |
daftykins | i did a couple myself but they were only ever temporary fixes | 11:12 |
diplo | I've looked on ebay, can get the elite for about 50-60 quid | 11:12 |
diplo | Or £79 in Game | 11:12 |
diplo | Can't decide what to do, can't really afford the One yet | 11:12 |
diplo | Kids just bought 4-5 games for the 360 with their birthday money :/ | 11:13 |
daftykins | erk! the GPU sink mount kit costs about £5 if you're good with hardware | 11:14 |
daftykins | before going that far, it's usually worth unplugging all accessories + the HDD to make sure it's definitely the main unit too | 11:15 |
daftykins | (MS support makes you do that as step 1 too) | 11:15 |
JamesTait | Good morning all; happy Gunpowder Day, and happy Men Make Dinner Day (totally unrelated)! 😃 | 11:15 |
Gary | oh I so need to hide someplace safe from bleeding fireworks tonight | 11:15 |
MooDoo | oh no forgot it was that onight | 11:16 |
daftykins | me too! | 11:16 |
daftykins | i'm in the capital so i can't avoid haha | 11:16 |
Gary | I once visited a friend on bonfire night - his housing estate was more like a warzone | 11:17 |
foobarry | popey thanks for he tp link | 11:18 |
popey | np | 11:19 |
foobarry | sad about losing root on my hudl2 though | 11:22 |
daftykins | they patch it out with their lollipop update? | 11:22 |
foobarry | yeah | 11:22 |
diplo | daftykins: I will look into it thanks, think I'll order another anyhoo and have the old one as a project | 11:22 |
daftykins | i guess now they're winding those down, it'll likely come back | 11:23 |
diplo | Kids can have one in another room if it works | 11:23 |
foobarry | and they don't allow unlocing bootloader | 11:23 |
daftykins | diplo: :D | 11:23 |
foobarry | even though they stopped selling the tablet | 11:23 |
popey | they don't sell the hudl2? | 11:27 |
popey | I thought i saw them in tesco last week | 11:27 |
daftykins | 'til stock runs out i think now | 11:28 |
daftykins | no more making them | 11:28 |
zmoylan-pi | no hudl3... | 11:29 |
daftykins | nope! | 11:32 |
daftykins | they shut down a lot of their content streaming services and are getting out of hardware it seems | 11:32 |
zmoylan-pi | they created a really nice piece of kit, got a lot of mindshare and then throw it away... | 11:32 |
daftykins | Tesco's big cheese wants to focus on the supermarket being a... supermarket :D | 11:32 |
zmoylan-pi | well that's not going to work when aldi and lidl are nearby | 11:33 |
zmoylan-pi | i use tesco mobile for my mobile phone. hope that keeps going as it's best/only prepay in ireland left | 11:33 |
daftykins | hmm | 11:35 |
zmoylan-pi | no junk sms, cheapest, good coverage... | 11:37 |
daftykins | i think they're just a MVNO over there - the virtual networks? | 11:38 |
zmoylan-pi | same here, piggy backing on 02's network, now owened by 3 i think | 11:39 |
daftykins | ah yeah | 11:40 |
zmoylan-pi | i use data, calls sms so little that i get 2-3 months per €5 | 11:41 |
daftykins | wowzer! | 11:41 |
daftykins | we have 3 mobile providers right now, but one is buying the other yet again so we'll be back to 2 :( | 11:42 |
zmoylan-pi | on any other network €5 only lasts 2 weeks and then i need to add another €5 for 2 more weeks as they moved to rolling contracts but still calling it prepay | 11:42 |
zmoylan-pi | so i kinda want to stick to proper prepay :-) €30 for same if i get a rolling contract... | 11:43 |
zmoylan-pi | if i don't get a choice, i'll probably just ditch using a sim, it's not worth that amount of money for so little usage | 11:44 |
awilkins | GiffGaff is kind of in that space | 11:45 |
awilkins | You can do a rolling contract or pay as you go | 11:45 |
awilkins | They charge a flat £0.06 a text, and £0.10 a minute, £0.20 for the first 20MB of data in a day | 11:46 |
awilkins | I think I was getting by with about £6 a month but I just upped it to £10 so I could stop worrying about data | 11:47 |
awilkins | Calls to other GiffGaff phones are free | 11:47 |
awilkins | They too subcontract onto the O2 network | 11:48 |
daftykins | *nod* saw some ads for that the other day, can't remember where as i don't normally see broadcast TV | 11:48 |
zmoylan-pi | of course since 3 bought 02 they've been shutting down the 2g network to push 4g which is annoying | 11:49 |
awilkins | Yeah, the coverage of even 3G is still awful on transport links | 11:49 |
awilkins | Which is a real PITA when you are using Maps and you need a reroute and you can't get decent data | 11:49 |
zmoylan-pi | i use cycle streets for offline map as there is a uk and ireland download for all the map data | 11:50 |
awilkins | I find the thing where it will route you around traffic pretty useful | 11:51 |
zmoylan-pi | it won't do the routing offline but i never use that | 11:51 |
awilkins | I have no idea how I would function without satnav now :-) | 11:52 |
zmoylan-pi | i have a compass in my bag... :-) | 11:52 |
davmor2 | zmoylan-pi: I have a watch with hands who needs a compass | 11:58 |
Gary | how do you tell direction with a watch with hands? | 11:59 |
zmoylan-pi | take lots of iron, point, spin and when you stop you'll be pointing north :-) | 12:01 |
bigcalm | http://www.wikihow.com/Use-an-Analog-Watch-as-a-Compass | 12:02 |
Gary | ah, it's cloudy :'( | 12:02 |
zmoylan-pi | and it doesn't work when summer time is in effect :-) | 12:03 |
zmoylan-pi | i did get a cheap watch in lidl with a compass feature builtin. but i don't wear it | 12:04 |
davmor2 | Gary: you can still tell where the sun is even now when it is cloudy | 12:04 |
zmoylan-pi | not it ireland you can't | 12:05 |
davmor2 | zmoylan-pi: it does work you just set the hand back an hour which takes a couple of seconds | 12:05 |
zmoylan-pi | there are days you're not even sure it's day when the could cover is really thick | 12:05 |
