[00:23] Howdy all o/ [00:23] hi [00:26] moobs [00:34] well this is rude, my new disk enclosure has started to be ignored by my xbox one [00:34] directhex: you used any external storage with yours? [00:37] daftykins, it's broke - like I said many times, you attract dead disks [01:11] and if you plug the external drive into any other system does it work? or does xbox demand some wacky format that only works on xbox? [01:18] * diddledan plugs his in [01:18] oh, wait, disks [01:18] ignore me [01:19] this is why chanops need to sleep so that I can get away with norties [01:21] zmoylan-pi: they use funky modifications to a standard GPT to stop PCs reading them outright [01:21] you can always use rude words from other languages... sassenach... :-) [01:21] a helpful UK chap is helping me hexedit the drive based on my disk dumps of the first 1MB :D [01:22] daftykins, I'll bet that weird loonicks thing can read them [01:22] eep [01:22] that's what i'm using ;) but no it can't [01:22] hexediting is evil at the best of times [01:22] oooooh, using norton disk util to read someones docs from a wonky disk.... that takes me back... [01:22] dang [01:23] I helped a dude work out what a long-lost game was that he had a photo of himself playing as a kid earlier: https://twitter.com/diddledan/status/664203318378516480 [01:23] if windows can't read it, then it's some wacky half assed ms layer on top of ntfs deliberately to make xbox look super duper [01:24] I wonder if they just have the filesystem without a partition table? [01:25] it might also be ReFS or Storage Spaces which I don't think linux can handle yet [01:29] somethings tweeting outside [01:29] or chirping [01:29] well i plugged a second disk in and installed halo5 to it, brought it up and my linux lappy read from the backup GPT just fine from it [01:29] so there's a quirk with my first drive === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away [04:11] so wily doesn't like my ms surface tablet :-p [04:12] it hangs shortly after booting [04:12] as in hard hang, not a crash [04:14] that fellow is cunning, we got it working by mounting the partition with losetup and an offset [04:14] skipping the partition tables entirely [04:14] \o/ [04:14] aww no wily surfaces for you sir! [04:14] I guess I should just put my wily away :-( [04:16] i think it best [04:16] you know what the neighbours would say === MooDoo is now known as Guest31128 [07:46] hi [07:52] morning boys and girls. === Guest31128 is now known as MooDoo [08:50] morning everyone [09:20] Morning all [09:22] Morning === alan_g is now known as alan_g|afk [09:35] Morning all [09:36] morning [09:42] Morning [09:49] bit of 4 non blonds stuck in my head this morning [09:55] aloha [10:09] Good morning all; happy Wednesday, and happy Armistice Day! 😃 [10:09] Ahh~ [10:09] Armistice Day!

[17:33] davmor2, then someone makes a riat [17:34] (she never pronounced that right for some reason) [17:35] maybe she said it as riet, rather than riat. either way it was not riot [17:37] diddledan: dude you can hardly speak English give the foreigner a break :D [17:37] lol [17:37] good point [17:38] bloomin foreigners being foreign [17:38] doing their foreign things with other foreigners [17:38] you'd think they were just like everyone else the way they behave [17:39] I hold higher standards! only natives are allowed to be eejits [17:39] * bashrc_ imagines Shuttleworth announcing spider eyeball convergence story [17:39] anywho I'm off === alan_g is now known as alan_g|EOD [18:20] On the matter of the Icelandic Singing Pixie : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1A78yTvIY1k [18:37] "for the next generation of ubuntu convergent devices we've made having spiders crawl out of your phone and feasting upon your eyeballs into a simple and elegant user experience.
