=== Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away [06:24] morning === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte [09:59] allo everyone === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away [10:40] morning [10:44] morning boys and girls. [10:46] hey brobostigon [10:46] how are you :) [10:47] hi knightwise, not bad overall, and you? [10:52] doin ok , been tinkering with an old netbook to turn it into a plex server [10:52] not very successfull so far [10:52] might have to add some ram [10:54] :) :( [11:24] dont know if it will help but i'll give it a try [11:54] hmm.. [11:54] opening up the netbook is like brain surgery [11:55] i can imagine. [11:58] hmm.. cpu is pretty busy , but i still have about 300 meg left of ram free [11:58] (of 1 gig) [11:59] disk io is allmost nothing , network io has some peeks [11:59] looks like the 1 gig is sufficient [13:55] Pretty impressed with the chromecast 2 I got for Christmas, cost £25, and got a £20 google play credit, plus a free hd movie rental for 30 days charged at £4.50, so net cost of chromecast 50p [13:58] i'm always wary of services that offer themselves free to get you hooked [13:59] on the bright side, they never ask for a credit card up front, do they ;-) [13:59] nope [14:00] every time i try to add an app to android device it wants me to 'review' my account and add a credit card [14:01] correct, it *wants* you to, but do you *have* to? [14:01] pretty much killed my interest in android. naggy screens are annoying [14:01] you have to wait 2-3 seconds before the skip button responds to press [14:02] .....slow...... [14:03] and i'm someone who paid for winzip :-) [14:03] if your phone is as old & slow as mine, you don't realise there *is* a lag... it's just normal [14:03] it's a fairly new tablet and none of the other dialogs lag like that [14:05] do get a really old phone & get lag everywhere... it makes life easier when you get used to it :D [14:05] my actual phone is a dumbphone. i love the little indestuctible insane battery life bugger [14:06] +1 ..If I need instant response, it's my dumbphone every single time [14:06] used yesterday for 23hours and still at 50% when i got home after a long busy day [14:06] My phone & tablet are pretty new, must admit I don't have any lag issue or nag screens, maybe because I have a card regisetered even if it is an expired one [14:07] and did web searches faster than 2 other people on car journey as it had real keyboard :-) [14:08] * SuperEngineer thinks of 3foot cardphone, shouts "hello, can you hear me? Yeah, I'm in a library" [14:09] dome comedy sketches are still relevant [14:09] red fox to grey squirrel, red fox to grey squirrel.... [14:09] :-) [14:09] gave the dvd... love it [14:09] *have [14:10] london calling nighthawk [14:10] listen very carefully, I will say this only once [14:11] i also have allo allo here on a hard drive... love that show... the jug with the drug and the candle with the handle... [14:11] night-Awk receiving [14:11] good moaning.... [14:11] beware the flashing nobs [14:11] knightwise, I'm always wary of flashing my nobs [14:12] [not to mention I used to play cards with her & her sis on a friday night after pub] [14:12] ...& she owes me money, I'm sure she cheated on those cards!!! [14:19] Hmm, just got 2nd e-mail from my bank in 10 days requesting me to clck on unknown links. I'm sure it's genuine - NOT!!! [14:20] hashtag phishing [14:31] for christmas they should send you a personalised email from their account manager mr. n. prince asking you to confirm account details... :-) [14:40] lol [14:47] I hate when people type hashtag like they were speaking hashtags when typing a hastag would be better as #hastag, hashtag: #hashtag [14:50] some things can't be described in any right way... http://bgr.com/2015/12/28/worst-wi-fi-password-ever-video/ [14:53] i always have a giggle when i hear radio adverts for company names that can be spelled a multiude of ways. what plonker chose such a badly spelled name? [14:57] zmoylan-pi, then there's adverts for companies whose name is easy to spell but they insist on reading the spelling letter-by-letter anyway [14:59] and somehow do it such a way as to confuse the spelling in your own mind [15:38] has most of the flooding in York come from the Foss, not the Ouse? says he noticing Bytemark is 50m from the Ouse [15:42] How on earth did Han Solo and Leia Organa have Serveres Snape as a child? [15:42] Mixed up movies [15:45] penguin42, since when has free open source software been the cause of flooding?! [15:46] diddledan: That's what happens when you flush your buffers [15:46] ouch [15:47] I suppose it takes a lot of cache to fix [15:47] diddledan: These days containers can help [15:48] I hear it's been difficult for drivers [15:50] perhaps they should just hit ctrl-s [15:50] or even ctrl+z [15:51] * penguin42 prefers flow-control [16:52] how to reboot remote linux machine? [16:54] diddledan: o/ [16:57] ssh user@machine; sudo reboot; [16:58] that works nicely if you can use passwordless logins with an ssh key i think [16:58] good point. [16:59] so it recognises which computer is connecting and can authenticate [16:59] yes. [16:59] plus you can run quite a few other commands that way, and from inside scripts [17:00] true. === Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte [17:58] brobostigon, I think that will reboob your local machine [17:58] brobostigon, too many ; [17:59] nod [17:59] but less reboobing please [18:00] :) [20:15] aaah, Nexus 5 LCD and what not finally arrived from Hong Kong... all transplanted, Marshmallow 6.0.1 flashed on and all working ace [20:19] :) [20:39] we fiddled with the new Nexii at Lakeside yesterday [20:39] wouldn't want the bigger one [21:11] my nexus 4 seems about perfect size, you can just about hold it in one hand, typing two hands, quite thin and light, its just about right. [21:13] nexorum no longer appeal to me. too biiiiiiiiiiiiig === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away [21:40] this chan5 doc on the vulcan is intereting [21:42] * brobostigon is watching the prog on bbc2 abour mr fry.
