[00:57] <diddledan> how is candy crush worth 5.9beeleon dollars?
[00:59] <zmoylan-pi> maybe they've already turned down such an offer?
[01:00] <diddledan> activision have bought them for 5.9
[01:02] <zmoylan-pi> maybe they want to backport candy crush to the atari 2600...
[01:24] <zmoylan-pi> or they see ms buying minecraft and want their own 'universe'

[09:01] <diplo> Morning all
[09:03] <jimmy_will> morning and afternoon
[09:42] <MooDoo> howdy all
[10:03] <JamesTait> Good morning all; happy Tuesday, and happy Area Code Day! 😃
[10:05] <awilkins>  http://news.slashdot.org/story/15/11/09/1748237/us-spends-1bn-over-a-decade-trying-to-digitize-immigration-forms-just-1-is-online
[10:05] <awilkins> $500M initial budget to digitize paper forms
[10:06] <awilkins> My company is spending an order of magnitude less to establish twin datacentres capable of handling 3PB of genetic data.
[10:06] <awilkins> Truly, the pork barrel runneth over in the USA
[11:03] <davmor2> JamesTait: I know an area code song from rush hour 2 iirc not sure I can paste it in such a polite channel though :)
[12:50] <zmoylan-pi> i'm beginning to work out why sony is in trouble.... http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/nov/10/betamax-dead-long-live-vhs-sony-end-prodution
[13:11] <mapps> hi zmoylan-pi
[13:11] <mapps> ;]
[13:15] <zmoylan-pi> o/
[13:18] <mapps> how could i block all gambling sites and make it so i cant access them
[13:18] <mapps> im serious
[13:24] <diplo> Edit /etc/hosts and change all the domains to 127 ?
[13:24] <diplo> Block them via your router if it has that option
[13:24] <mapps> but i can then change it mysellf
[13:25] <diplo> But you have to physically do it, which should work with you alerting yourself
[13:26] <diplo> If you're going to change it, I'd go to see a hypnotherapist, gammbling anonymous or something along those lines if you don't have the will power and you're in charge of your machine / router you obviously don't have the self will to not do it and get around your circumventions
[13:26] <diplo> Those things are not bad things, just giving options
[13:27] <diplo> I had a member of staff who couldn't stop visiting certain sites so I did the hosts thing on his windows machine, just having the block there was enough for him to understand it had become an issue
[13:27] <mapps> yea
[13:33] <zmoylan-pi> could you change it so router blocks it and give the password to a mate so you can't undo it?
[13:40] <popey> mapps, ask the sites you visit to do self-exclusion
[13:42] <mapps> i try but always un self exclude
[13:42] <popey> get help
[13:59] <diplo> I know this is an ubuntu channel but... :D I want to download the EPEL CentOS 4 packages to have as a backup, yes I know it is EOL
[14:00] <diplo> Normal option would be to use rsync, but that's not supported on 4 packages
[14:00] <diplo> How would anyone else do it, wget mirror ?
[14:01] <popey> no idea, never used centos, so no idea how packages are served
[14:01] <diplo> :) - I'd rather not :)
[14:02] <diplo> Read on other repos that wget is actively discouraged but no other option apart from rsync/reposync which doesn't work :P all good fun
[15:34] <directhex> is anyone currently seeding my steamos fork, stephenson's rocket? i have a new release i need to switch seeders onto
[15:35] <diddledan__> directhex: I think I might be
[15:36] <popey> bigcalm was
[15:37] <diddledan__> directhex: do you have the magnet link handy? I can add it to my torrent box
[15:38] <directhex> magnet:?xt=urn:btih:e282ac4fb18dbfae2e0be7a83411c7d47101b694&dn=StephensonsRocket2.49plus1.iso&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.openbittorrent.com%3A80&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fopen.demonii.com%3A1337&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.coppersurfer.tk%3A6969&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.leechers-paradise.org%3A6969
[15:38] <directhex> but BW will stink until i can get it seeded by a few people
[15:38]  * bigcalm looks in due to email notification. Sup?
[15:39] <directhex> it's steamos release day! so i made a stephenson's rocket refresh
[15:39] <diddledan__> bigcalm: how do you get irc emails?
[15:39] <bigcalm> directhex: I haven't recently seeded it. Happy to do so again though. Got the torrent link?
[15:39] <directhex> bigcalm: it's fastest for you to grab via http then seed, IME
[15:40] <bigcalm> diddledan__: I use away proxy for irssi
[15:40] <bigcalm> directhex: k
[15:40] <davmor2> diddledan__: irssi proxy away
[15:40] <directhex> although i'm pushing 2mb up! unprecedented!
[15:40] <diddledan__> aah
[15:40] <bigcalm> directhex: site url?
[15:40] <bigcalm> Something about a horse?
[15:40] <davmor2> diddledan__: irssi as a proxy rocks :)
[15:41] <diddledan__> bigcalm: horsebattlerystaple?
[15:41] <diddledan__> --l
[15:41] <directhex> wasn't kidding about unprecedented, i never push more than 100k on torrent uploads from my desktop. BT throttles i assume
[15:41] <daftykins> directhex: have you got another web link to snatch it and boost the torrent?
[15:42] <directhex> damn google drive that was supposed to be a public link
[15:42] <directhex> https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0RgGqWAMEw8VWJMUVc4SXZ1UFU/view?usp=sharing
[15:42] <directhex> grab it before google cuts me off :x
[15:43] <bigcalm> Got it!
[15:44] <diddledan__> my ratios are pretty awesome on there: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hb083u74k1k1p37/Screenshot%202015-11-10%2015.43.58.png?dl=0
[15:46] <daftykins> i shall seed until i need some bandwidth ;D
[15:46] <daftykins> since windows 10's autumn update comes out today
[15:46] <diddledan__> it does?
[15:46] <daftykins> mhmm
[15:48]  * bigcalm pauses the seeding of Ubuntu Mate 15.10
[15:50] <directhex> xbox one win10 upgrade on thursday!
[15:50] <daftykins> indeed 8D
[15:50] <daftykins> i'm wondering how big it'll be
[15:50] <zmoylan-pi> so people can panic on friday \o/
[15:51] <bigcalm> Back to work I go, toodles
[15:51] <daftykins> i bet it'll be like patch tuesday, comes out 9am Seattle time so takes until 6pm UK
[15:52] <bashrc_> got one more person onto ubuntu last weekend. Some initial grumbling, but once they realized they could still use the same apps they were ok with it
[15:53] <daftykins> they can't have used much then
[15:53] <bashrc_> whenever there is a Windows disaster I always use that to try to get people onto ubuntu
[15:54] <bashrc_> no, I'd class them as a basic user. Email (thunderbird) firefox and a working printer and they were done
[15:54] <daftykins> oh so they didn't use anything non-native
[15:54]  * zmoylan-pi is giving vivaldi browser a spin and not hating it...
[15:54] <daftykins> you put them on LTS so they don't have to experience the more regular ubuntu disasters? :)
[15:55] <davmor2> zmoylan-pi: give ubuntu-browser a go :)
[15:55] <zmoylan-pi> i think i tried that at one point...
[15:55] <bashrc_> I did put them on LTS
[15:56] <bashrc_> with automatic security updates enabled
[15:57] <daftykins> ^_^
[17:12] <davmor2> Hmm trying out hexchat so far looks and feels the same as xchat :)
[17:13] <daftykins> just more updated so i hear!
[17:14] <davmor2> indeed and supported
[17:14] <zmoylan-pi> you want irssi with green text on a black background so you can irc in the dark wearing a balaclava for maximum daily mail hackerness ;-)
[17:14] <davmor2> zmoylan-pi: no I don't
[17:14] <daftykins> lmao
[17:15] <popey> I'm using hexchat these days
[17:16] <davmor2> popey: you using any plugins or just vanilla?
[17:17] <popey> nope
[17:17] <popey> didnt know it had any
[17:18] <davmor2> popey: well there is indicator for a start :)  and then there is the plugins package which I haven't looked at yet :)
[18:13] <diddledan> flash. just die already. https://threatpost.com/adobe-flash-update-includes-patches-for-17-vulnerabilities/115322/
[18:19] <m0nkey_> I simply don't install it these days
[18:20] <davmor2> diddledan: you can't kill flash how will lazy advert writers make money without it ;)
[18:20] <m0nkey_> The other thing I want to die is Java in browsers
[18:20] <m0nkey_> But alas, I need it for IPMI
[18:22] <daftykins> :(
[18:24] <diddledan> lol: https://twitter.com/Sidragon1/status/664143917051285504
[18:30] <czajkowski> anyone remember how you move  a window to a certain number?
[18:32] <daftykins> context = irssi ?
[18:39] <czajkowski> yes
[18:40] <czajkowski> ahh gotit
[18:40] <czajkowski>    /window move 10
[18:40] <czajkowski> :D
[18:41] <daftykins> czajkowski: if you've not already, i didn't know that one but "/layout save" is a neat one for keeping a set order
[18:48] <czajkowski> daftykins: aye so I've tried
[18:48] <czajkowski> but somewhere in my evil config it has me joining to rooms
[18:48] <daftykins> o0
[18:48] <czajkowski> and no matter my editing it still autjoins me to them
[18:49] <daftykins> how rude!
[18:50] <czajkowski> I know!
[18:50] <czajkowski> there are channels really I don't want to go bac kto
[18:50] <daftykins> i never learnt the command set in irssi, i just manage my joins by editing the config directly XD
[18:50] <czajkowski> but irssi seemingly does
[20:18] <Myrtti> czajkowski: /channel list
[20:18] <Myrtti> /channel add -noauto #channel
[20:21] <davmor2> czajkowski: well if you will go to these channels you will attract the wrong kinda attention :D
[23:02] <czajkowski> Myrtti: ohh thank you
[23:03] <czajkowski> 23:02 -!- Irssi: Not enough parameters given
[23:04] <Myrtti> /channel add -noauto #channel network
[23:05] <czajkowski> ahh
[23:05] <czajkowski> Myrtti: you're amzing thank you
[23:06] <daftykins> i'm sure that was in the manual :)
[23:07] <Myrtti> not really
[23:07] <daftykins> yes
[23:07] <Myrtti> well, kinda, but you need to know how to read the manual
[23:08] <Myrtti> if you're referring to /help channel
[23:08] <czajkowski> wow there was still autojoins from my canonical time
[23:08] <Myrtti> Just had a mint aero. That was nicer than I thought
[23:08] <czajkowski> wow that is super useful thank you Myrtti
[23:10] <czajkowski> Myrtti: one more question, is there a way to also remove the list of channels from /channel list
[23:11] <czajkowski> the ocd tidy kicks in
[23:11] <czajkowski> so they're removed from autojoin but still show up on list
[23:11] <Myrtti> doing the command above should do it
[23:12] <Myrtti> /channel list is a list of channels you've got configured
[23:12] <Myrtti> not necessarily a list you've got autojoins for
[23:13] <czajkowski> ahh I see
[23:15] <Myrtti> if you want them totally gone, /channel remove #channel network
[23:15] <Myrtti> don't forget to /layout save and /save
[23:17] <czajkowski> nods
