[00:00] interesting: http://www.geek.com/news/scientists-confirm-origin-of-stonehenge-bluestones-1641412/ [00:06] * zmoylan-pi awaits the announcement of the formation of the return stonehenge now group... :-) [00:09] speaking of stones... ::puts on fifth element:: [00:11] multi pass. [00:12] leeloo dallas... multi... pass... === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away [05:57] hello [06:25] mornin [07:43] yey WerdPress [07:43] * diddledan just finished updating one of my plugins: https://travis-ci.org/diddledan/wp-a-z-listing [07:44] err, https://wordpress.org/plugins/a-z-listing/ (the travis link is interesting, still, but doesn't tell you what it does) [07:48] morning boys and girls. [07:49] morning [07:50] morning diddledan [08:10] morning all [08:11] m00 [08:12] :) [08:31] Hmmh, after a week using Win 10 in work, its actually quite user friendly and unobtrusive in day to day use [08:34] * zmoylan-pi schedules DJones for deprogramming... :-P [09:11] Morning all [09:29] morning davmor2 [09:31] MooDoo: me awld mucka, 'ow bin ya? === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte [09:42] davmor2: crackin lad, waiting for 12, half day today ;) [09:43] MooDoo: \o/ woohoo [09:51] davmor2: yeah going to see laddo in his nativity this afternoon [09:55] MooDoo: so you lied when you said half day, what you meant was, Half a day of freedom then half a day of torture ;) Not yours obvious it's the other out of tune kids that ruin it :D [10:06] lol [10:13] Good morning all; happy Tuesday, and happy Pretend To Be A Time Traveler Day! 😃 [10:14] JamesTait: i feel like a timetravler :p [10:14] went from Sweden -> US [10:14] timezone differences and stuff [10:17] Where I come from, Pretend To Be A Time Traveller Day is regarded as an archaic but amusing event! [10:20] awilkins, where you come from, or *when* you come from? [10:20] bittin_US, my sympathies, I've been there many times. [10:21] The Temporal Prime Directive (rather ironically named from an old documentary reel) prevents me from revealing that there is, in fact, a Temporal Prime Directive. [10:21] JamesTait: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Adk1ujjmguo easy [10:23] Happily the predestination paradox schroedingloop that this willant noncause will prevent any major ripples from emerging. And after all, this is an IRC channel - who actually reads these things! [10:24] errrmmm.... everybody in Durham, Durham. Durham, Durham reads this? [10:26] Good morning peeps :) [10:26] I'm talking about participants in significant causality nexuses. Durham is in a few years anyway. [10:28] awilkins, only in your [unstable] paradox does it get redacted. [10:30] JamesTait: we can have this too as they time travelled enough times https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCARADb9asE [10:32] * SuperEngineer wonders about phrase: "time travelled enough times" [10:33] wot. no dimensions? ;-) [10:38] JamesTait: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8p3A_tt8ERU [10:59] davmor2, I like it. 😃 [12:00] hopefully php7 has been released early enough in the xenial cycle that it'll be included in the LTS [12:51] diddledan: Or just stop using PHP === alan_g is now known as alan_g|lunch [13:13] afternoon all o/ === alan_g|lunch is now known as alan_g [14:45] just called up a guy who's done home cinema installs etc for someone i know, helped me out with a few things... as i'd seen a clients' sky box often needs rebooting once a week minimum [14:45] anything to be done? nope they're just that rubbish now apparently. [14:48] get a timer plug to switch it off once a week at 3am in the morning :-) [14:50] clearly the problem is IT MUST BE OVERCLOCKED [14:50] put a heat sink on it. with massive fins [14:50] water. [14:50] 3x120mm rad [14:51] frozen vodka... someone doing that got a zilog z80 up to silly speeds iirc [14:51] baby oil [14:51] squeezed from freshly harvested babies [15:25] Myrtti, why use squeezed ones? Roast them & collect oil from from baking tray [plus you get a free meal] [15:29] SuperEngineer: that's the second phase [15:29] extra virgin virgin oil is always cold pressed [15:30] the dregs are collected from the baking tray [15:32] the dregs with yummy crunchy bits in it... [15:34] * SuperEngineer has suddenly gone off roast baby [15:35] [should've used some garlic & black pepper, I guess] [15:38] baste it with butter [15:41] but that would spoil the baby oil collecting in the roasting dish! [15:42] ...& would clog up the cooling system [15:44] true [15:54] * SuperMatt steps in to the channel, reads the last 5 lines and start mashing the 9 button on his mobile [15:57] I just find the product name funny. [15:57] it has to be made of babies, just like canola oil and olive oil is [16:09] & they must be babies up to a certain age only [16:10] otherwise the oil becomes "a bit pongy" if not changed regularily [16:11] [& now he's definitely hitting the "9" key!] [16:13] it's starting to hit my nausea trigger point, too... [16:15] * SuperEngineer changes subject to reasting kittens [16:15] although well known not to be so good at producing oil ;) [16:16] actually [16:17] there was a rumour in the early days of margarine in Finland where did all the barn cats and strays disappear... [16:17] whoops! [16:17] and it was actually true, too [16:17] yuk! [16:20] Were "e" numbers used to disguise the dact? [16:20] *fact [16:23] ungh [16:23] I think it was a bit early days for any e numbers [16:32] So, might as well put my FirefoxOS phone in the bin, looks like mozilla are killing it off. [16:33] crikey, can't get anything else on there? [16:33] no, i mean the current build works [16:33] but dunno what future it has [16:36] yeah but other OSs once it's definitely dead [17:53] popey: ouch so ditching ffos and thunderbird so they are just going to do a browser that uses chrome plugins why not use chrome then [17:53] well, FFOS will be reborn as an IoT platform it seems. === alan_g is now known as alan_g|EOD [19:17] http://techcrunch.com/2015/12/08/mozilla-will-stop-developing-and-selling-firefox-os-smartphones/ [19:19] qi was so looking forward to trying one of those... [19:19] *i was [19:19] i don't think we needed another mobile OS [19:19] zmoylan-pi: you could buy popey 's [19:19] i think we do. a proper linux os [19:20] people said that when blackberry and symbian were leaders [19:20] no android java vm, no ios locked down tighter than ducks arse, no windows phone os silliness [19:20] i doubt it would've amounted to anything [19:21] needed more now than ever [19:22] maybe with all these cutbacks Mozilla can stop screwing up Firefox so much \o/ [19:23] no no, now they can focus all their resources ON screwing up firefox... [19:23] :) [19:24] They're moving over to IoT [19:25] i'm not sure what that means in actuality :D [19:27] new ways to make old tech insecure :-) [19:28] zmoylan-pi: harsh dude [19:29] * zmoylan-pi waits for the local script kiddies to have davmor2's lights turning on and off at random at 2am :-) [19:30] zmoylan-pi: my devices would be powered by ubuntu so that won't happen :P [19:30] haha [19:31] plenty of folks spilling into #ubuntu are 'powered by ubuntu' but on lovely EOL releases ;) [19:32] i found a laptop here that had a proper crusty old version on it [19:32] :D [19:33] that's fair when it's actively used, but how these folk get by with things like 13.10 still running [19:33] err, not actively used. [19:33] popey: 4.10? [19:33] they even say "yeah i haven't been prompted for updates for ages!" [19:54] I had one with 9.04 on it [19:58] * daftykins wonders if that was jaunty [19:58] !9.04 [19:58] Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) was the tenth release of Ubuntu. End Of Life: October 23, 2010. See !eol and !upgrade for more details. [19:58] yessss \o/ [20:02] that's a while ago already [20:14] time is way too scary [20:14] it's all that timey wimey stuff [20:14] ikr [20:14] the wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff === zmoylan-1i is now known as zmoylan-pi [22:50] news headline about donald trump: https://twitter.com/jaffathecake/status/674358927996403712 [22:50] or rather that's a quote from theoretical donald [23:02] rowan atkinson at his best: https://youtu.be/umRRCkspaQU [23:06] o0 [23:09] nah he's far better elsewhere :P [23:10] as the gorilla gerald in not the nine o'clock news... [23:12] time for bed i think [23:13] nn all \o [23:14] o/ [23:16] :-o === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away
