[00:56] <diddledan> maybe the next G version of ubuntu should be "Gnarly Gnus"?

[06:48] <brobostigon> morning boys and girls.
[08:08] <MooDoo> morning
[08:51] <czajkowski> aloha
[08:54] <TwistedLucidity> 8 hours, 6 minutes of drudgery to go....
[08:56] <MooDoo> tell me about it
[09:02] <TwistedLucidity> I found a new hero yesterday: https://www.jitbit.com/alexblog/249-now-thats-what-i-call-a-hacker/
[10:08] <JamesTait> Good morning all; happy Tuesday and happy Celebrate Your Unique Talent Day! 😃
[10:09] <MooDoo> morning
[12:35] <foobarry> !ping
[12:35] <lubotu3`> pong!
[12:39] <foobarry> received duplicate order of tshirts from USA :S
[13:01] <diddledan> morning
[13:01] <diddledan> foobarry, maybe they decided you needed two
[13:01] <foobarry> i ordered 2 types, received 2 of each
[13:01] <foobarry> gonna have to get in touch with them
[13:02] <foobarry> postage to USA pricey though
[13:54] <popey> foobarry, surely they'll pay that, or more likely just let you keep it
[13:54] <foobarry> yeah, you'd think so
[13:54] <popey> I know someone who got sent double quantity of sofas
[13:54] <popey> they didnt want them back
[13:54] <Myrtti> I got a double quantity of digital cameras once
[13:54] <dogmatic69__> foobarry:  by law you can keep it with no cost
[13:55] <Myrtti> and I couldn't even return the other, because the system saw me getting only one
[13:55] <foobarry> i'd like to ask them first
[13:55] <diddledan> http://www.sciencealert.com/li-fi-tested-in-the-real-world-for-the-first-time-is-100-times-faster-than-wi-fi
[13:55] <diddledan> interesting concept
[13:55] <diddledan> I'm wondering how you communicate back to the light-fitting tho
[13:56] <dogmatic69__> foobarry: its to stop companies 'accidentally' sending extra and then asking people to pay up.
[13:59] <bashrc_> I remember discussing that li-fi idea in a job interview long ago
[13:59] <bashrc_> at a company which made lights
[14:12] <foobarry> i get 2 notifications from thunderbird. one is the desktop notifications, one is an ugly one at bottom of screen - how do i turn that off?
[14:19] <MooDoo> ubuntu spotted - http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2015/11/how-a-group-of-neighbors-created-their-own-internet-service/ 1m 27 mark :)
[14:22] <SuperMatt> It's so much easier to spot ubuntu in the wild than any other distro
[14:22] <SuperMatt> I wonder why that could be
[14:24] <zmoylan-pi> less windows 8 around these days? :-)
[14:24] <diddledan> SuperMatt, brown
[14:24] <diddledan> oh wait, we lost that these days. orange then
[14:24] <diddledan> or purple
[14:29] <MooDoo> it's aubergine not purple :p ;)
[14:37] <awilkins> Lifi : just communicate back with wifi
[14:37] <awilkins> No doubt designed for the common notion that people download more data than they upload
[14:37] <Seeker`> Myrtti: a real shame that you got a 2nd camera :P
[14:38] <Myrtti> well neither of them were for me
[14:38] <Myrtti> so one family got a camera in Finland and other in UK as a Christmas present
[14:39] <awilkins> The only time I want gigabit speeds upstream is when I sync my Windows 7 VM from my laptop to my desktop
[15:04] <diddledan> oh dear, a turkey has killed a rusky
[15:04] <diddledan> http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/turkish-warplane-shoots-down-russian-6888744
[15:04] <zmoylan-pi> techincally one of the ruskies was captured alive... won't end well
[15:07] <diddledan> https://www.google.com/intl/en-GB/starwars/
[15:09] <MooDoo> diddledan: dark side here :D

[20:54] <diddledan> yawn
[20:54] <diddledan> ello mapps
[20:57] <mapps> hey
[20:57] <mapps> i like how every idiot at the casinos is smarter than everyone else/better off/good job , then it turns out ..no they work in a bar
[20:57] <mapps> lol
[20:58] <mapps> why do people have to lie so much
[20:59] <diddledan> donno, but my 200ft yacht had a great party at the weekend ;-)
[20:59] <diddledan> (that was a lie)
[21:00] <zmoylan-pi> you were there by yourself...
[21:00] <diddledan> yeah, the party suckecd
[21:00] <diddledan> sucked*
[21:00] <mapps> :D
[21:01] <diddledan> still at least the staff were friendly
[21:01] <diddledan> (lie)
[21:21] <popey> "every idiot at the casinos"
[21:23] <mapps> well
[21:23] <mapps> people that tell me i should play perect pairs at like 4/1 or whatever
[21:23] <mapps> ridiculous odds
[21:24] <mapps> im a gambler, but i know what odds stuff should be
[21:24] <mapps> im terrible at my own gambling ;) for the company already made 1.5mil since june lol
[21:27] <mapps> it pays for my "luxury living" apartment, 1500 quid a month for this pokey dump ..but i dont want to move to spain
[21:48] <diddledan> why are randoms following me on teh twits?
[21:48] <diddledan> @crimealertsusa is the latest random
[21:49] <zmoylan-pi> bots follow random people, people follow random people in hope they follow back to increase the # of their followers
[21:49] <diddledan> some guy called @AndrewMayne is following me
[21:49] <diddledan> he's supposedly an award winning author
[21:50] <zmoylan-pi> a lot of authors follow people to push their books....
[21:50] <zmoylan-pi> they usually have longest densest bios
[21:50] <diddledan> he's apparently the star of "Don't trust andrew mayne" on the A&E network
[21:53] <diddledan> https://www.dropbox.com/s/1ddsknofqlgyofm/Screenshot%202015-11-24%2021.53.54.png?dl=0
[21:54] <diddledan> not many
[21:57] <zmoylan-pi> kinda how snowden felt when he joined twitter :-)
[22:01] <diddledan> lol, yeah, if you're famous you really should turn off twitter emails
[22:11] <mapps> diddledan
[22:11] <mapps> i always get that
[22:11] <mapps> loadsa random follower reqs
[22:11] <diddledan> I want to know how they decide who to follow
[22:13] <zmoylan-pi> peobably scanning peoples bios or locations
[22:13] <diddledan> if it's locations then why would @CrimeAlertsUSA follow me?
[22:14] <diddledan> hint. I'm not in murrica
[22:14] <zmoylan-pi> maybe they assumed your an american if you follow mostly american accounts or are just eejits
[22:18] <diddledan> methinks they're somewhat more strongly worded than eejit
[22:18] <diddledan> f**king ***hole morons
[22:18] <zmoylan-pi> well it's a good enough description for a family friendly channel
[22:28] <diddledan> hmm, freenas mini discount
[22:29]  * diddledan waits for the email to load
[22:30] <diddledan> meh, that's expensive
[22:30] <diddledan> 4TB for 1.2k$
[22:30] <diddledan> 8TB for 1.3k$
[22:30] <diddledan> 1.4**
[22:30] <diddledan> 12TB for 1.5k$
[22:31] <diddledan> 16TB for 1.7k$
[22:31] <diddledan> or the top end 24TB for 2.25k$
[22:36] <daftykins> hmm i've definitely put together those for cheaper
[23:12] <daftykins> http://anandtech.com/show/9815/amd-moves-pre-gcn-gpus-to-legacy
[23:12] <daftykins> many many abandoned cards
[23:20] <diddledan> ouch
[23:20] <diddledan> I'm almost glad I bricked my 6850 :-p
[23:20] <diddledan> sorry, 6870
[23:20]  * diddledan just double checked the number
[23:22] <daftykins> you did? not via BIOS malarkey?
[23:24] <diddledan> yeah
[23:26] <zmoylan-pi> i don't think i've ever blown a video card... not from want of trying mind you... :-)
[23:26] <daftykins> ah could your recent purchase not help with that?
[23:26] <diddledan> donno
[23:27] <diddledan> it'ld require pulling the shield off to find any headers but that's too much hassle :-p
[23:27] <daftykins> diddledan: or you know, if you have a mobo with two PEG slots you could reflash it
[23:27] <zmoylan-pi> serial, parralel, usb, modems, isdn, scsi, scanners, sounds cards blown to kingdom come but never a video card for some reason...
[23:27] <diddledan> that's a point
[23:27] <daftykins> make it sew!
[23:27] <diddledan> I didn't think of plugging two cards into the machine
[23:28] <diddledan> I'm not sure I've still got the bios tho
[23:28] <daftykins> easily obtained online
[23:29] <daftykins> diddledan: example - https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/index.php?manufacturer=Sapphire&model=HD+6850
