[02:17] <Bashing-om> pauljw: Yeah, The quality has been commendable .

[02:26] <EriC^^> :)
[02:27] <EriC^^> how are you Bashing-om ?

[02:28] <EriC^^> i'm ok
[02:29] <EriC^^> was sleeping and woke up to a thunderstorm, they're rare here
[02:29] <EriC^^> it's one lightning after another like a stroboscope outside O.o
[02:30] <Bashing-om> EriC^^: Times like that I know to shut the systems down and unplug ! Lightening is unforgiving too .
[02:31] <EriC^^> that's a good idea
[02:32] <EriC^^> i'll remove them
[02:34] <Bashing-om> I live at the top of a mountain ... highest point .. lighteneing has done a number here more than just once !
[02:37] <EriC^^> i see
[02:37] <EriC^^> i've removed everything from electricity
[02:38] <EriC^^> i imagine in the morning "why is everything not turning on? wtf?"
[02:38] <EriC^^> lol and i'm in my sleep and cussing is going on in the house
[02:40] <Bashing-om> Hah ! Better bleary eyed and catching up that spending big bucks replaceing hardware .
[02:41] <EriC^^> yeah :D
[02:42] <Bashing-om> EriC^^: ya ninja's me with BlastRed . Fast on the fingers huh ?
[02:43] <EriC^^> what's his issue?

[02:51] <EriC^^> i see
[03:53] <OerHeks> postfix configuration for the harddrive ...
[05:27] <lotuspsychje> good morning to all
[11:57] <daftykins> new toys! https://www.dropbox.com/sh/rj9p21r6jowb4o7/AACkI5b027SctsMRNppGZLfOa?dl=0
[11:57] <daftykins> £160 27" HannsG 2560x1440 IPS LCD arrived :)
[11:57] <lordievader> 2560x1440 is nice :)
[11:58] <daftykins> not for me, just ordered in for someone... but nice to see
[11:58] <daftykins> it was even a hassle getting it to display over HDMI correctly on Windows ;)
[12:28] <lordievader> I like having lots of screen estate.
[12:42] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[12:57] <daftykins> hallo o/
[13:11] <BluesKaj> hey daftykins
[17:58] <daftykins> TJ-: heya o/
[17:58] <TJ-> Evening :)
[17:58] <OerHeks> :-)
[18:02] <daftykins> https://www.dropbox.com/s/6vgbr5ix7pqj459/IMG_20151117_171517.jpg?dl=0
[18:02] <daftykins> still playing with this 27" thing :)
[18:02] <daftykins> hmm i forget TJ- can't view those links without hassle!
[18:04] <daftykins> http://techblo.gg/stuff/lcd.jpg
[18:04] <daftykins> there's a tad more sane version
[18:04] <TJ-> It amazes me; an organisation depends on another externally controlled server for its core product - in this case ajax.googleapis.com
[18:05] <daftykins> mmm that's annoying
[18:05] <daftykins> some have sworn off dropbox because that ex-government person Condoleeza Rice is on their exec board o0
[18:05] <TJ-> looks like the larger monitor ought to be above the other 2 :)
[18:05] <daftykins> can't say i saw a reason there though
[18:05] <daftykins> haha, well i bought this in for a client y'see, so it's just getting 'testing' right now
[18:06] <daftykins> amusingly only my desktop can drive this 27" with its' native 2560x1440, and even then only if i turn off one of my two
[18:06] <TJ-> I generally won't use any service that depends on external servers - shows the directors have no concept of controlling their quality and core value
[18:06] <TJ-> is the GPU capable of driving more than 2 heads at once?
[18:07] <daftykins> nope
[18:07] <TJ-> many only have 2 outputs at once
[18:07] <daftykins> only two TMDS signal converters on-die
[18:07] <TJ-> right. That's why I have the Quadro with dual GPUs, to drive 4 heads
[18:07] <daftykins> makes me laugh this panel came with VGA, since that can't drive >2048x1536 iirc
[18:08] <TJ-> analog can get some very high resolutions, more than some digital outputs
[18:09] <daftykins> RAMDACs used to be limited to the 2048 res though, or maybe more so the VGA cable MHz rating? *shrug*
[18:09] <daftykins> i've not tried VGA, could be fun for a laugh
[18:10] <TJ-> RAMDAC frequencies was the top limit, but bad cables could cause some terrible crosstalk and ghosting/wobble
[18:12] <daftykins> it's funny that i've owned these Dell 2408 LCDs since 2008, with all the inputs under the sun, yet still haven't owned anything with displayport to make use of it :)
[18:12] <daftykins> old v1.1 though it is
[18:15] <TJ-> I've got the U2412 and the same; but what I like is they take 12V DC input
[18:18] <daftykins> :)
[18:18] <daftykins> http://vrworld.com/2015/11/16/nvidia-unveils-pascal-gpu-16gb-of-memory-1tbs-bandwidth/
[18:18] <daftykins> ooh nvidia's stab at HBM tech
[18:30] <TJ-> trying to rsync 64GB from android phone over MTP; looks like it'll take a few days!
[18:31] <daftykins> ugh
[18:31] <daftykins> even on Windows when i've done backups of phones before wiping, it takes forever just counting the data before a copy starts
[18:32] <daftykins> ooh i'm getting a free LG Nexus 5 soon, it has a smashed screen but i ordered one from Hong Kong on ebay for £26 :)
[18:36] <TJ-> Good plan
[18:41] <daftykins> hope it works out, 'official' LCDs with digitizer and panel etc are listed for more like £90
[19:03] <daftykins> if only Elementary didn't exist :)
[19:05] <Bashing-om> elementry is close, but no chocolate chip cookies !
[19:07] <daftykins> that's true
[20:15] <daftykins> OerHeks: i'm not sure that WMV or WMA have to have DRM, i think they can be without too, no?
[20:16] <OerHeks> Yes, with and without
[21:45] <OerHeks> themes problems should be top priority, guys.
[21:46] <OerHeks> we are losing 1000+ users per hour
[21:46] <daftykins> :D
[22:11]  * daftykins sings whilst doing maintenance
[22:12] <OerHeks> that game0 dude is annoying, earlier in #ubuntu-touch he was insulting volunteers, but they have a policy to be nice,not ban.
[22:14] <daftykins> mmm i wasn't very impressed with the things being said
[23:41] <OerHeks> daftykins, it is your fault that his celeron is slow.
[23:41] <OerHeks> :-D
[23:41] <OerHeks> man, some don't want help
[23:41] <daftykins> maybe if i give it a cookie?
[23:41] <daftykins> just because it came from Vista era though, it shouldn't be slow :/
[23:42] <daftykins> maybe it has a faulty hard disk / shouldn't be running unity
[23:42] <OerHeks> celeron single core perhaps
[23:42] <daftykins> yeah, low cache celeron + low RAM = swap++
