lotuspsychjecfhowlett: good morning mate02:32
lotuspsychjesupport is pretty active cfhowlett but we have a volunteer est31 that i find a bit misinformed02:34
lotuspsychjeyou see that guy before?02:34
OerHekshe is on my ignore, a troll.02:45
lotuspsychjeah tnx OerHeks but he's been 'helping' false info all night02:45
cfhowlettI just entered, but I did get that vibe off him pretty quickly.02:47
cfhowlettwill continue to observe02:47
lotuspsychjeok02:48
lotuspsychjei saw wileee arguing with him too earlier02:48
lotuspsychjesi lets be warned02:48
lotuspsychjeso02:48
OerHeksit is not a community minded person, i in team.02:48
lotuspsychjeOerHeks: such fellas should not support then02:49
Bashing-omWell ! I am surprised est31 / sruli .02:57
* cfhowlett wonders why anyone would seek medical health, especially pregnancy, in an irc channel ...02:59
OerHeksnot the #c++ channel i guess03:00
lotuspsychjeBashing-om: howso?03:01
OerHekswait .. dr. phil !03:01
Bashing-omlotuspsychje: Honestly , I was of the opinion that est31 had his head in a dark place .03:06
lotuspsychjeBashing-om: indeed03:06
cfhowlett!ops ??03:44
daftykinsindeed :/03:44
cfhowlettok, we bein' trolled here or what???04:14
cfhowlettyeah, I think troll mentality confirmed.  /ignore applied04:16
daftykinswow.04:17
daftykinsjust... wow.04:17
cfhowlettI must have missed the ending.  "Screw this, I'm going back to windows!"???04:17
daftykinsapparently i'm a fed because i asked what he used a VPN for.04:19
* daftykins shakes his head04:19
daftykins"this is officer kins, i need your IP right now"04:19
cfhowlettso I take it he exited in a huff?04:20
daftykinsyeah :S proper rage quit04:22
daftykinsthat one was DEFINITELY a teen04:22
cfhowlettI always think of South Park when Cartman says "Screw you guys, I'm going home!"04:23
cfhowlettand it takes everything in me to resist the urge to type that message in channel ...04:23
Bashing-omSad state of afffairs .. No fun .. I going to sleep it off . Gnight guys .04:23
daftykinscfhowlett: :D04:26
TJ-g'morning04:44
daftykinsheya04:46
daftykinsyou just missed a doozy ;)04:46
daftykinsok if i PM a text file link?04:47
TJ-I'm so glad I was asleep! I've actually got my hours front-to-back at last :)04:47
TJ-I'll have to start it; I have +g set04:48
daftykinsah ok04:48
TJ-Wow! Just did my first test of this InstallShield Z archive extractor I've written on some other archive files I've found listed on a file formats wiki and it extracts them flawlessly04:55
daftykinsexcellent :D04:55
daftykinsnow if that functionality could be folded into an archive manager that'd be amazing04:56
TJ-Always good when the code works on something other than the test file04:56
TJ-That's my aim; I'm turning this into a library + standalone front-end, so it can be called from an archiver04:56
daftykinsah magic!04:57
TJ-Which means I have to figure out the best API to enable support of the most popular archiving tools, and find out how they auto-discover libraries04:57
TJ-It got me what I was after though - this 1990s MCU emulator's data file for the ancient MC34510E8SP I'm hacking :)04:58
daftykinsbut only if you can escape volunteering for long enough! :D05:54
daftykinsi'm gonna head off to sleep, your shift :)05:54
daftykins\o05:54
TJ-g'night05:55
lordievaderGood morning10:11
lotuspsychjegood noon to all11:23
lotuspsychjehttp://news.softpedia.com/news/debian-based-robolinux-8-2-lxde-linux-os-lets-you-run-windows-10-virus-free-496171.shtml11:42
lotuspsychjethat project looking pretty nice11:42
lotuspsychjenice ideas integrated11:42
cfhowletttrying to see the value added ...11:44
lotuspsychjeyeah i know we can run w10 on virtualbox too :p11:44
lotuspsychjeand tor browser11:44
lotuspsychjebut i like the default package allright11:45
TJ-I'm not sure how they get the 'virus free' bit11:47
lotuspsychjelol11:48
cfhowlettyeah, that does seem to be a bit of a reach.11:48
TJ-unless the windows installs are snapshots and always start from the installed image11:48
TJ-in which case, good luck to all those Windows users wondering where their installed software disappeared to, after they shutdown the VM11:48
cfhowlettthough I admit I've never experienced a breach on my virtualbox windows.  Of course, I DO only turn it on what?  10 days each year?11:49
lotuspsychjehttp://www.robolinux.org/11:49
lotuspsychjewebsite surely looks bit playmobile lol11:51
TJ-"because Robolinux invented Stealth VM Software that runs on over 500 Linux Operating Systems, which keeps a protected clone of Windows and mirrors your data in a secure Linux partition you can restore within a few minutes in just two clicks!"11:52
TJ-"invented" ... yeah right11:52
lotuspsychjelol11:52
TJ-"snapshots"11:52
cfhowlettwait, they charge $$ for this?!!11:53
TJ-well you've got those invention patent license fees :)11:54
cfhowlettwhat a sweet, sweet racket.11:54
TJ-For end-users who just want to get on it makes sense; someone has done a lot of work to make it work together seamlessly. When it looks easy someone spent a lot of time and effort on it11:55
cfhowletttrue.11:56
lotuspsychjetoo much banners and videos on that site my god11:56
TJ-Agreed; the web-site is very 199411:56
lotuspsychjeskype support robolinux :p12:00
TJ-anyone recommend a USB-based eprom programmer that supports 27C*12:03
lotuspsychjeTJ-: not me, maybe Ben64 knows or the ##hardware guys12:22
TJ-Looks like the TLC866A has a decent Linux 'minipro' tool: https://github.com/vdudouyt/minipro12:34
BluesKajHowdy folks12:59
livingBEEFWas packages.ubuntu.com always http only? For example startpage gives me links with https (which obviously doesn't work).13:02
pauljwmornin13:25
BluesKajlivingBEEF, which ubuntu?13:32
BluesKaj'morning  pauljw13:32
pauljw:)13:32
livingBEEFBluesKaj: not on ubuntu ATM, but that's not the point. The point is, that the web page "packages.ubuntu.com" can only do http and not https (unlike most other *.ubuntu.com webs). Firefox/wget/whatever just times out for me14:21
BluesKajodd I didn't have that problem with FF14:37
Bashing-omBack on, much refreshed. Are we having fun now ?16:30
Latrodectusi found the info for that upgrade bug, what should i do with it?20:50
=== Pici` is now known as Pici
