zmoylan-pi | next zipper day... | 13:16 |
diddledan_ | zmoylan-pi: and then "getting it caught in the zipper day" | 13:16 |
* diddledan_ winces | 13:16 | |
zmoylan-pi | it'll keep them in stitches... | 13:16 |
diddledan_ | the big question when you get caught in your zip is "do I finish doing it up or attempt to undo it?" | 13:17 |
zmoylan-pi | or the slow v fast method of bandaid removal... | 13:17 |
diddledan_ | yeah that's another perennial | 13:17 |
foobarry | popey: i got some great github stickers | 13:18 |
foobarry | ask jono bacon for some ;) | 13:18 |
popey | i will! :) | 13:20 |
foobarry | we got 200 after buying the github onsite appliance | 13:20 |
popey | I'd rather have launchpad stickers though, because you know, free software | 13:20 |
foobarry | there are some great stickers | 13:20 |
foobarry | yeah | 13:20 |

diddledan_ | one must recognise there's a difference between someone saying "you gotta try ubuntu, mate" and "you gotta try ubuntu mate" | 14:37 |
diddledan_ | :-p | 14:37 |
diplo | Well it's not pronounced "mate" like alright mate | 14:38 |
diplo | So I've found out today | 14:38 |
diplo | :P | 14:38 |
zmoylan-pi | i learned the importance of commas when i helped my uncle jack off a horse... :-P | 14:38 |
diddledan_ | yeah, I think that makes it sound ponsey tho | 14:38 |
diddledan_ | I would imagine the horse was somewhat relieved to have that weight-off | 14:40 |
diddledan_ | whichever way you punctuate it :-p | 14:40 |
diddledan_ | fun exam answer (supposedly) http://paste.ubuntu.com/13299495/ | 15:31 |
foobarry | there's only 1 way to pronounce mate surelty? | 15:39 |
zmoylan-pi | unless you spell if maté | 15:40 |
foobarry | but they don't? | 15:41 |
zmoylan-pi | seems to have been dropped but still pronounced that way... | 15:43 |
bigcalm | Like Cafe | 15:51 |
daftykins | i find most pronunciation in the open source world to be quite stupid | 15:54 |
diddledan_ | café is supposed to be spelt with a ´ over the e. anything else is wrong. | 15:56 |
arsenip | well | 15:58 |
arsenip | anything else is the eastenders version | 15:58 |
daftykins | :> | 15:58 |

diddledan_ | my precious | 16:01 |
diddledan_ | I like the fingerprinty thingy | 16:01 |
daftykins | nah he knows it's been fixable for ages, but i saw him the other day at a party with a Samsung S5 =| | 16:01 |
daftykins | some folks are so ridiculous with their money | 16:02 |
diddledan_ | <-- | 16:02 |
daftykins | ;] | 16:02 |
arsenip | <-- | 16:03 |
arsenip | rediculous is relative. | 16:03 |
diddledan_ | I like shiny toys | 16:03 |
arsenip | as is money. | 16:03 |
daftykins | seems someone i know is still keen on getting a Surface despite having a Lenovo X1 carbon | 16:03 |
diddledan_ | o_O | 16:03 |
arsenip | surface looks good tbh | 16:03 |
* diddledan_ checks the lenovo | 16:03 | |
arsenip | is the x1 not old now ? | 16:03 |
Seeker` | Registered : Nov 20 23:44:23 2006 (8y 51w 5d ago) | 16:04 |
daftykins | unless you ever want to upgrade it, trollolol | 16:04 |
Seeker` | There must be 9 days this week | 16:04 |
arsenip | its a laptop .. | 16:04 |
daftykins | X1 has a 2015 model | 16:04 |
arsenip | if you're buying laptops for upgradability you're doing it wrong :D | 16:04 |
arsenip | i say this from my high perch cradling my macbook 12.. of course. | 16:04 |
daftykins | not when Lenovos are mostly sold with teensy SSDs | 16:04 |
arsenip | ah yes, that i can understand. | 16:04 |
daftykins | what the stupid Core M thing? | 16:04 |
arsenip | 'low on disk space' shouldnt be an error that exists in todays age. | 16:05 |
arsenip | probably daftykins | 16:05 |
daftykins | i was able to swap out the 160GB intel for a 512GB Crucial in the X240 of someones | 16:05 |
arsenip | though perf isnt an issue really. | 16:05 |
daftykins | buying all the accessories to get some sane sockets is? :> | 16:06 |
primered6 | ~<120gb is not that bad that's what NAS storage is for.. | 16:06 |
arsenip | i gots all the litle donglefriends daftykins :D | 16:07 |
arsenip | actually i could do with a usb-c to thunderbolt or whatever it is, i guess | 16:07 |
daftykins | primered6: perhaps for your own usecase, however i have travelling business folk clients | 16:07 |
daftykins | hehe | 16:07 |
arsenip | franly the only reason i have 500gig SSD in mine is because i dont want to ever have to delete stuff | 16:08 |
arsenip | i can't see many businesses using >100gig on a workstation unless its a creative industry (sound/video processing) | 16:08 |
bashrc_ | nobody will ever need more than 640K | 16:09 |
arsenip | :D | 16:09 |
* daftykins groans at the cliché | 16:10 | |
diddledan_ | I use > 100G on my laptop for business | 16:10 |
arsenip | i basically work out of crhome and a terminal, so my 500gig exists for random junk downloads and videos to watch on flights. :D | 16:10 |
daftykins | i wish i knew who this office opposite was, i'd tell 'em they can save money by turning off their damn screens at night :P | 16:13 |
* daftykins keeps using Firefox tab groups before it gets removed in FF 45 :( | 16:15 | |
diplo | I use > 100G on my laptop and work PC arsenip as do most of the work staff, but I agree in a typical office maybe that would be a lot | 16:22 |
awilkins | Windows eats like 60G or something now? | 16:25 |
awilkins | I know a lot of it is actually hardlinks to libraries, but still | 16:26 |
daftykins | no | 16:26 |
daftykins | it's never taken 60GB | 16:28 |
primered6 | More like 20-30gb | 16:29 |
primered6 | if that.. | 16:29 |
daftykins | 10 comes with that funky install shrinking tech | 16:30 |
hexhaxtron | Anyone has Freeview HD? | 16:30 |
daftykins | what'd the actual question be? | 16:30 |
zleap | some channels on freeview are HD, | 16:31 |
hexhaxtron | If it works with WiFi or if I need cables connected to the TV? | 16:31 |
zleap | like bbc channels, so if you have HDTV you get a better picture | 16:31 |
daftykins | hexhaxtron: wait what? freeview is aerial broadcast no o0 | 16:31 |
hexhaxtron | daftykins, what does it mean aerial? I need an antenna? | 16:31 |
daftykins | yeah that's what freeview is, unless something new has come out in the last year i don't know about | 16:32 |
zleap | ariel = antenna | 16:32 |
hexhaxtron | Or the builtin Freeview in the TV already catches the signal? | 16:32 |
daftykins | depends what your TV is capable of | 16:32 |
hexhaxtron | daftykins, I'm interested in this TV: http://dealbuyer.com/viewproduct/18228/Digihome_48_LED_Full_HD_1080p_TV_2_x_HDMI_2_x_USB_Media_Player | 16:32 |
daftykins | so yeah roof antenna only | 16:33 |
hexhaxtron | I don't have a roof antenna... | 16:33 |
daftykins | then you're up that specific creek with no paddle | 16:33 |
daftykins | i think i'd aim for something with a freesat tuner, then you can make use of a sky dish | 16:34 |
hexhaxtron | daftykins, can you suggest me an antenna to buy? | 16:35 |
daftykins | nope | 16:35 |
daftykins | you'll want to phone your local handy installer | 16:35 |
daftykins | before that though, use the freeview site to check coverage in your area | 16:36 |
zleap | we have a freeview tv with a normal indoor ariel / antenna works ok | 16:36 |
daftykins | sounds like non-HD | 16:36 |
zleap | the UK should have full coverage of freeview analog channels were switched off IIRC | 16:36 |
daftykins | no harm in checing :) | 16:36 |
daftykins | +k | 16:36 |
zleap | not sure just now we have a new tv and we are using an indoor ariel | 16:37 |
hexhaxtron | zleap, something like this? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/271206041756?adgroupid=13936810266&hlpht=true&hlpv=2&rlsatarget=kwd-124296812946&adtype=pla&ff3=1&lpid=122&poi=&ul_noapp=true&limghlpsr=true&device=c&chn=ps&campaignid=220881786&crdt=0&ff12=67&ff11=ICEP3.0.0-L&ff14=122&viphx=1&ops=true&ff13=80 | 16:37 |
zleap | kinda but yes | 16:37 |
zleap | they come in all shapes | 16:37 |
hexhaxtron | Thanks! :) | 16:37 |
zleap | https://duckduckgo.com/?t=lm&q=indoor+ariel&iax=1&ia=images | 16:38 |
hexhaxtron | zleap, what do you think of this one? http://www.qvsdirect.com/amplified-indoor-freestanding-digital-freeview-aerial-with-4g-filter?utm_source=google&utm_medium=googleshopping&utm_campaign=googlebase&gclid=CJDBxJmxlckCFQxmGwodfrMDKg | 16:42 |
hexhaxtron | Is it good? | 16:42 |
daftykins | you really should just do it right :P | 16:45 |
daftykins | after all you only do it once, so there's no point scrimping | 16:46 |
hexhaxtron | daftykins, it's not my home... it's a private rented room... I cannot put an antenna on the roof by myself, the landlord needs to give permission for it. | 16:46 |
daftykins | weird to have a place with no provision | 16:46 |
hexhaxtron | daftykins, but... that antenna works with the TV I mentioned, right? And then I get many channels for free? That's all I need to know. | 16:48 |
daftykins | i wouldn't want to say | 16:48 |
arsenip | whenever ive lived in rented i've had tv/phone instaleld - usually with landlord perms tho | 16:48 |
daftykins | one years little buggers had sky fitted to my place in Portsmouth, they never asked :P | 16:49 |
hexhaxtron | I don't have phone either. However, I got wireless Internet. :) | 16:49 |
daftykins | phones pretty useless today | 16:49 |
daftykins | i only have one from being forced for my VDSL provision | 16:49 |
arsenip | tbh i think these dasy its pretty standard to have sky or cable installed | 16:50 |
hexhaxtron | arsenip, can I pm you? | 16:55 |
diddledan | now that's an odd spam - advertising an "ultra realistic" flight simulator they're calling "VirtualPilot3D" | 16:56 |
diddledan | they claim it "is going to be a GAME-CHANGER" | 16:56 |
daftykins | diddledan: well you do have to quit what you're playing to run it i suppose ;) | 16:57 |
diddledan | lol | 16:57 |
arsenip | ofc hexhaxtron | 16:57 |
arsenip | im not sure what use i am, though. | 16:57 |
daftykins | yeah that arsenip can't even do s saff London accent ;) | 16:58 |
arsenip | afaik freeview works via standard tv aerial right? anyting you get from the likes of argos etc would do fine. | 17:00 |
daftykins | yeah probably | 17:01 |
daftykins | hexhaxtron: http://www.freeview.co.uk/availability | 17:03 |
daftykins | see how good the coverage is nearby before investing in some cheap internal antenna | 17:03 |
hexhaxtron | daftykins, I did that already. | 17:03 |
daftykins | oh ok, just not sharing then | 17:03 |
daftykins | sue me for trying :P | 17:04 |
* diddledan demands monies | 17:04 | |
hexhaxtron | daftykins, 90 channels, 14 HD and 29 radio stations. | 17:04 |
diddledan | daftykins: talking of suing for money - this is a fun talk at the DEFCON security conference some years ago "that awesome time I was sued for two billion dollars" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSWqx8goqSY | 17:05 |
daftykins | only get 18 over here! | 17:05 |
diddledan | seems it was 2009 conference | 17:06 |
daftykins | cor | 17:06 |
daftykins | but that was last week, no? | 17:06 |
daftykins | diddledan: i want that 30 minutes back! :P | 17:40 |
diddledan | lol | 17:55 |
diddledan | you're stuffed then :-p | 17:55 |
daftykins | heh nah it was quite interesting, glad i'm not high profile enough to get such letters | 17:55 |
diddledan | indeed. I don't know that I'd be able to spot the silly from the serious | 17:56 |
daftykins | just imagine being a family person and finding the time to even sift through it all though, ugh | 17:56 |

hexhaxtron | daftykins, do I have to pay some tax to use TV in the UK? | 18:48 |
diddledan | hexhaxtron yes | 18:51 |
diddledan | hexhaxtron, to wathc live broadcast (even via the internet) you need a "TV License" | 18:52 |
diddledan | catch-up that isn't live is ok wihtou tho | 18:52 |
hexhaxtron | diddledan, where can I get more info about the TV License? | 18:52 |
diddledan | hexhaxtron. tvlicensing.co.uk | 18:53 |
hexhaxtron | diddledan, can't I just use an antena and a TV and watch it for free? | 18:53 |
diddledan | hexhaxtron, you can, but it's illegal | 18:54 |
hexhaxtron | diddledan, are the channels encrypted or something? | 18:55 |
diddledan | freeview and freesat are completely unencrypted | 18:56 |
Myrtti | TV licence is a bargain | 19:32 |
