[07:21] <_Ridgewing> kinda [07:21] so if i registered what would i see..how do i participate [07:22] <_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. [07:23] * _Ridgewing puts his cookie monster badge on :) [07:23] thanks [07:23] those galaxy cookies are nice they sell them here in morrisons [07:23] have you had the bounty ones? [07:24] <_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 [07:25] <_Ridgewing> The bounty ones are like cocaine for me. Too much and I won't fit in my one-sie. [07:25] if you were a FOSS lover you'd be greeted by a requirement to install flash in order to watch [07:25] which is quite frankly laughable :) [07:26] hahaha [07:26] a one-sie?! [07:26] <_Ridgewing> shuttleworth says you have to take "risks", these days with things like pepper flash. [07:27] _Ridgewing: i doubt he said that at all :P [07:28] <_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] heh [07:28] <_Ridgewing> **Snuggies [07:29] <_Ridgewing> daftykins: He did say you have to take risks in the keynote. want me to find it for ya ? [07:29] regarding flash specifically? :P [07:29] <_Ridgewing> No. [07:29] right, thought so [07:30] <_Ridgewing> k [07:32] 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 ? [07:35] * _Ridgewing waves his little Manx Flag. [07:37] never used Hangouts no, resist it on my phone too - still on the standard SMS app in android land :P [07:39] <_Ridgewing> SMS .. is that texting ? [07:40] yea [07:40] * _Ridgewing wonders if ppl stil send Txts [07:40] europeans say SMS more [07:40] brits just say text [07:40] <_Ridgewing> Really ? That's so 2005 [07:40] ive seen hangouts on my phone too..never used [07:40] <_Ridgewing> At least use telegram [07:40] people use snapchat..whatsapp kik telegram viber etc [07:41] <_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 ? [07:42] * _Ridgewing wipes the cookie crumbs away from keyboard. [07:42] =] [07:42] no clue [07:42] never used it [07:42] i have to use SMS for some holdouts, yeah [07:43] typically on whatsapp [07:43] heard that telegram name lurking around, no idea what benefits it has though [07:43] encrypted [07:43] i believe [07:43] ah so for the tinfoil hat crowd, great ;) [07:43] but for most peoples convos its irrelevant [07:44] <_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] see, i heard that one was for school kids sexting each other originally ;) [07:44] no point over whatsapp imo [07:45] yea [07:45] eharmony eh [07:45] <_Ridgewing> yeps. [07:45] <_Ridgewing> Only cost a grand in subscription/s. [07:45] <_Ridgewing> But I'm in Lurve [07:46] * _Ridgewing blinks [07:46] lol [07:46] <_Ridgewing> What am doing telling you my juicy bits, anyway - This is a tech channel !!!!!! [07:46] full of fakes and transexuals on dating sites [07:47] ive been on pof and yea uhh [07:47] <_Ridgewing> eHarmony is abit more softcore IMHO. [07:47] loads of fake profiles nice pics clearly stolen and then guys that are now girls..had a message off them before [07:47] not for me ta [07:49] <_Ridgewing> I take it "ta" is tea, then ?

[07:52] are you new here, didnt recognise the nick [07:52] daftykins the ta thing?;) [07:53] <_Ridgewing> daftykins: I'm a mixer of Manx and Irish, thou.

[07:57] How are we all this rather sh*te morning [07:57] <_Ridgewing> **CAnonical funding [07:57] is it the "i'll just get up to make a coffee" type chair movement, but then you see the desktop ready? ;) [07:57] whats that _Ridgewing [07:58] not bad here ty, ooh yeah it does look rather nasty out there [07:58] 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] Yep exactly daftykins :D [07:58] <_Ridgewing> mapps: http://community.ubuntu.com/help-information/funding/ [07:58] :D [07:58] 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 ...

[08:18] 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] If I'd tried this Evo and it had worked I'd have bought one already [08:20] 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 ?

[08:50] <_Ridgewing> Plus, I need shopping cookies. [08:50] <_Ridgewing> and bounty cookies. [08:51] 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] curious. [08:52] <_Ridgewing> Well, I'm curious that your curious, too. [08:53] <_Ridgewing> :) [08:57] i'll take it as a yes then. [08:58] <_Ridgewing> daftykins: dunno, describe him to me . [09:01] 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] ok [09:02] <_Ridgewing> I'm mostly a Kubuntu fan. [09:02] * _Ridgewing is doing the PR and everything. [09:03] 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. [09:04] <_Ridgewing> **solid [09:05] i'm in a tech channel on IRC, i'm not judging an OS by its' WALLPAPER! [09:06] <_Ridgewing> ok, no need to get the hump. Hump day was so yesterday, :) [09:08] just pointing out how ridiculous your claim was :) [09:08] or query even [09:08] nah every UI element really, it's grown up a bit since i last saw it though [09:08] but 1.2GB RAM used at boot? that one's been at the cookies [09:17] <_Ridgewing> So it's basically the RAM overhead, then ? - well It's not for your average 2004 laptop, I guess. [09:17] no that's an aside [09:18] <_Ridgewing> go on ... [09:18] <_Ridgewing> we need feedback. [09:18] no, you don't [09:19] 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] er, just how iffy the dev on that one seems [09:20] <_Ridgewing> One of the dev has a Patreon page if you are interested ? https://www.patreon.com/sgclark?ty=h [09:20] _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. [09:21] 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] SuperMatt: ah-har! wow almost 2 years :S [09:28] Whatcha doing now SuperMatt ? [09:30] I'm working for a company called Sporting Index, doing infrastructure stuff [09:31] Cool, a bit slow paced ?

Like, really good [10:30] I just didn't feel like doing computers at home anymore [10:30] 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] I still don't like it SuperMatt, will stay with 7 for now [10:31] If I could only have a good SSH client on it, I would genuniely use it for my day to day [10:31] I'm debating for the same reason MooDoo [10:31] I really don't like putty [10:31] SuperMatt: wait for SSH to be bult into powershell :D [10:31] yeah, I was just about to say that [10:31] diplo: :) [10:31] I use mputty SuperMatt :) [10:31] SecureCRT is OK, but not free [10:32] diplo: I stream via twitch at the moment via my xbox one :) [10:32] xbox one \o/ [10:32] Did I see a vid from you the other day ? Destiny ? [10:32] MooDoo: looking forward to the new OS on the 12th? i am :) [10:32] I think waiting for power shell is th ebest bet for me [10:33] on an xbox? XD [10:33] daftykins: ah wondered when it was being release, not fussed really as long as I can stream and play games :) [10:34] :) [10:34] should be waaaaaay faster to do most things [10:34] plus xbox 360 backwards compatibility comes \o/ [10:34] well i'm a MS fanboy any way so I'm sure it's going to rock! [10:35] ^5! :) [10:35] i love win10 streaming from it [10:35] :) [10:35] i can play the games up here at my desk [10:35] xbox down in the lounge downstairs [10:35] daftykins: I'm wireless laptop so it doesn't work over wireless [10:35] sure it does! [10:35] i've had my laptop streaming over 130Mbps 'n' [10:36] maybe not on the 'very high' setting, but it does admirably [10:36] hmmm will need to look into it as my laptop won't discover the xbox one [10:36] is it possible your router / WAP has wireless isolation configured? so it can't see wired devices? unless they're both wireless. [10:37] i'll look into that :) [10:38] daftykins: ah looks like I can just create a new static route in my dd-wrt router and that should fix it [10:40] daftykins: or I'll just plug in a ethernet over power adapter :D [10:40] :D === zmoylan-1i is now known as zmoylan-pi [11:10] My 360 RROD'd last weekend :( [11:11] d'aww, long out of warranty? [11:12] 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] Yeah it is [11:12] i did a couple myself but they were only ever temporary fixes [11:12] I've looked on ebay, can get the elite for about 50-60 quid [11:12] Or £79 in Game [11:12] Can't decide what to do, can't really afford the One yet [11:13] Kids just bought 4-5 games for the 360 with their birthday money :/ [11:14] erk! the GPU sink mount kit costs about £5 if you're good with hardware [11:15] 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] (MS support makes you do that as step 1 too) [11:15] Good morning all; happy Gunpowder Day, and happy Men Make Dinner Day (totally unrelated)! 😃 [11:15] oh I so need to hide someplace safe from bleeding fireworks tonight [11:16] oh no forgot it was that onight [11:16] me too! [11:16] i'm in the capital so i can't avoid haha [11:17] I once visited a friend on bonfire night - his housing estate was more like a warzone [11:18] popey thanks for he tp link [11:19] np [11:22] sad about losing root on my hudl2 though [11:22] they patch it out with their lollipop update? [11:22] yeah [11:22] daftykins: I will look into it thanks, think I'll order another anyhoo and have the old one as a project [11:23] i guess now they're winding those down, it'll likely come back [11:23] Kids can have one in another room if it works [11:23] and they don't allow unlocing bootloader [11:23] diplo: :D [11:23] even though they stopped selling the tablet [11:27] they don't sell the hudl2? [11:27] I thought i saw them in tesco last week [11:28] 'til stock runs out i think now [11:28] no more making them [11:29] no hudl3... [11:32] nope! [11:32] they shut down a lot of their content streaming services and are getting out of hardware it seems [11:32] they created a really nice piece of kit, got a lot of mindshare and then throw it away... [11:32] Tesco's big cheese wants to focus on the supermarket being a... supermarket :D [11:33] well that's not going to work when aldi and lidl are nearby [11:33] i use tesco mobile for my mobile phone. hope that keeps going as it's best/only prepay in ireland left [11:35] hmm [11:37] no junk sms, cheapest, good coverage... [11:38] i think they're just a MVNO over there - the virtual networks? [11:39] same here, piggy backing on 02's network, now owened by 3 i think [11:40] ah yeah [11:41] i use data, calls sms so little that i get 2-3 months per €5 [11:41] wowzer! [11:42] we have 3 mobile providers right now, but one is buying the other yet again so we'll be back to 2 :( [11:42] 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 [11:43] so i kinda want to stick to proper prepay :-) €30 for same if i get a rolling contract... [11:44] 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 [11:45] GiffGaff is kind of in that space [11:45] You can do a rolling contract or pay as you go [11:46] They charge a flat £0.06 a text, and £0.10 a minute, £0.20 for the first 20MB of data in a day [11:47] 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] Calls to other GiffGaff phones are free [11:48] They too subcontract onto the O2 network [11:48] *nod* saw some ads for that the other day, can't remember where as i don't normally see broadcast TV [11:49] of course since 3 bought 02 they've been shutting down the 2g network to push 4g which is annoying [11:49] Yeah, the coverage of even 3G is still awful on transport links [11:49] Which is a real PITA when you are using Maps and you need a reroute and you can't get decent data [11:50] i use cycle streets for offline map as there is a uk and ireland download for all the map data [11:51] I find the thing where it will route you around traffic pretty useful [11:51] it won't do the routing offline but i never use that [11:52] I have no idea how I would function without satnav now :-) [11:52] i have a compass in my bag... :-) [11:58] zmoylan-pi: I have a watch with hands who needs a compass [11:59] how do you tell direction with a watch with hands? [12:01] take lots of iron, point, spin and when you stop you'll be pointing north :-) [12:02] http://www.wikihow.com/Use-an-Analog-Watch-as-a-Compass [12:02] ah, it's cloudy :'( [12:03] and it doesn't work when summer time is in effect :-) [12:04] i did get a cheap watch in lidl with a compass feature builtin. but i don't wear it [12:04] Gary: you can still tell where the sun is even now when it is cloudy [12:05] not it ireland you can't [12:05] zmoylan-pi: it does work you just set the hand back an hour which takes a couple of seconds [12:05] there are days you're not even sure it's day when the could cover is really thick === alan_g is now known as alan_g|afk [12:07] davmor2, it's in the sky! :p [12:08] JamesTait: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LF1951pENdk === alan_g|afk is now known as alan_g [12:25] Good morning peeps :) [12:26] morning [12:40] because using a solar powered charger on a plane should make everyone around you nervous... :-P https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/da/f6/ce/daf6ce953f87af11d8110291c101210b.jpg === alan_g is now known as alan_g|lunch [13:02] zmoylan-pi, That's mental [13:25] can anyone recommend a veeam cloud connect supplier?
