[05:47] <Kilos> hi thatgraemeguy magellanic 
[05:47] <magellanic> hi Kilos 
[07:11] <pieter2627> morning all
[08:34] <Kilos> hi pieter2627 
[09:49] <pieter2627> any bored peeps have a take on this -> https://youtu.be/ixIoDYVfKA0
[11:01] <Private_User> interesting thought pieter2627 but I would have assumed that self-driving cars should have predicted that and kept a better following distance to minimize risk
[12:24] <pieter2627> Private_User: that is also an interesting angle
[12:24] <pieter2627> Private_User: that is also an interesting angle...
[12:26] <pieter2627> althought i think the argument is more around collision prevention... what if it fell from a skyscraper or tall building
[12:29] <Private_User> pieter2627:  hmm... interesting thought but if the following distance is kept and say all the cars on the road are self driving would the car not determine a course of action to either stop or increase the speed and move forward to avoid whatever is falling from the sky? but I get the point never thought of that
[12:30] <Private_User> would be interesting to fi nd out what would happen if the road is shared with self driving cars and cars that are driven by humans
[12:31] <Private_User> cause a self driving car would follow rules but people I do not think so
[12:31] <pieter2627> Private_User: that seems like the ultimate solution, but the hybrid case will indeed make things interesting
[12:33] <Private_User> so if the the road is shared by cars that are driven by people then there would probably be no following distance cause from my experience driving on the roads is that when you keep following distance all the other people on the road find that as an opportunity to get onto your lane
[12:34] <Private_User> but yes interesting thought and I would love to hear what the experts who are developing these cars say pieter2627
[12:35]  * pieter2627 lately love these 'philosysing' thoughts about Robotics (smart tech) since it seems that they will 'jump
[12:35] <pieter2627> .. on us soon
[16:00] <Kilos> hmm...
[17:39] <Kilos> what a noisy bunch of geeks you all are
[17:39] <Kilos> evening everyone
[18:25] <inetpro> Kilos: noisy,.... who's noisy?
[18:25] <Kilos> hahaha
[18:26] <Kilos> all this chatting about nothing
[18:26] <inetpro> good evening everyone
[18:26] <Kilos> hi nasanzero 
[18:26] <nasanzero> hi guys 
[18:26] <Kilos> hows my pro and family doing??
[18:26] <inetpro> Kilos: good, good
[18:27] <Kilos> we had 2 big storms but only 7mm rain
[18:27]  * inetpro enjoying affordable quality music in the comfort of his home
[18:28] <inetpro> google play music is awesome!
[18:29] <Kilos> online?
[18:29] <inetpro> Kilos: yes online streaming eating a bit of data unfortunately
[18:30] <Kilos> hahaha and you say affordable
[18:30] <inetpro> but still awesome
[18:30] <Kilos> depends on th music i spose
[18:31] <Kilos> nasanzero welcome to ubuntu-za
[18:31] <inetpro> just need to find free hotspots in future to download to the device before playing :-)
[18:31] <Kilos> yes thats the answer inetpro 
[18:32] <Kilos> i use youtube-dl -f 140 link to get just the audios from the tube
[18:32] <inetpro> at R49.99 per month I think it is really worth it
[18:32] <Kilos> i havent yet found if 140 is the best but ok for me
[18:32] <Kilos> 50 bucks plus data??
[18:32] <inetpro> youtube eats much much more than just audio
[18:32] <Kilos> nono
[18:33] <Kilos> used like that you only get the audio
[18:33] <inetpro> ah
[18:34] <inetpro> clever!
[18:34] <Kilos> nono stupid
[18:34] <Kilos> i forgot where i found it
[18:34] <Kilos> hehe
[18:34] <Kilos> there was more you could add to the command
[18:34] <inetpro> -F
[18:35] <Kilos> i use small f
[18:35] <Kilos> the 140 has something to do with quality i think
[18:35] <inetpro> -F list all available formats
[18:36] <Kilos> oh ty
[18:36] <inetpro> -h for help
[18:36] <Kilos> haha
