[10:11] JamesTait: oh sorry old rock from the stones you wanted https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YszyvXlCD2g [10:14] That definitely covers both there can't be any rocks older than Keith Richards face right [10:25] Good morning peeps :) [10:28] ning [10:31] is nong the right response to a ning [10:32] That was my thought process [10:43] Hi All, looking at the HP microserver for webhosting as I really want to move all my stuff back in house...recommendations? or any of them? [10:47] MooDoo: something like http://www.serversdirect.co.uk/hp-proliant-microserver-gen8-g2020t-2.5-ghz-3mb-4gb-1x4gb-udimm-2-lff-sata-784918-425/version.asp [10:51] http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hewlett-Packard-Enterprise-ProLiant-MicroServer/dp/B013UBCHVU/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1452163318&sr=8-2&keywords=hp+microserver davmor2 [11:21] talking of microserver, is the optical drive on it sata only?

[12:06] it has one [12:06] finalyl finished my mammoth script to rip tv shows "easily" [12:07] since the internet did not give up what i needed to ignore the short titles found on dvds [12:07] so... as obsolete as mammoths are extinct? :-) [12:07] the sata connector on the mobo in an annoying location [12:07] oh [12:07] but with small fingers you can get to it without pulling the entire mobo out [12:08] :o [12:08] https://paulroberts69.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/image3.png [12:08] i have nimble fingers [12:08] i may have a right angled sata too [12:08] bet it goes the wrong way :) [12:10] :'( [12:17] popey: you still on telegram ?

[12:32] popeydc [12:32] or just plug in my phone number [12:34] anyone else around here on telegram ? My contant list is so short I look like a digital hermet [12:43] Despite being on plenty of social media systems, I communicate with very few of them [12:45] DHL attempted to deliver my new phone today. I wasn't in and they didn't try leaving it with a neighbour. Quite miffed [12:45] sent back to china? === popey_ is now known as popey [12:52] Thankfully they aren't that dumb. Close though [12:53] I've opted to pick it up from Staples at the weekend [12:58] bigcalm: did you tell them to leave it at a neighbour [12:59] I was under the impression that's only done wiht the likes of DPD an dmaybe royal mail [12:59] but UPS and DHL require the address it's shipped to especially if there is a signaure required === alan_g is now known as alan_g|lunch [13:02] czajkowski: I assumed that all couriers attempted next door deliveries as a matter of course. I now find out that DHL require permission to do this === alan_g|lunch is now known as alan_g [13:05] * Laney is forever taking parcels for the neighbours [13:05] perils of WFH [13:08] bigcalm: aye pretty standard tbh [13:08] Jon had stuff being delivered today but only as I'm at home or else he'd have changed it [13:11] I would personally do that for my neighbours [13:11] mostly because I hate having to get parcels from the post office or arrange a new delivery [13:11] we do the same around here also, but usually only if pre arranged === alan_g is now known as alan_g|lunch [13:13] Wifey laptop arrived today via dpd [13:13] ugh new halifax banking site is horrid [13:13] I didn't even have time to track the guy and egg him on [13:13] he turned up way too early for my liking [13:13] "we changed it to look better on mobile devices" and aswful on desktop [13:14] which Laptop popey ? [13:14] Got her a Thinkpad X1 Carbon [13:15] which I am a little envious of [13:16] spendy [13:16] non-removable battery? [13:16] yeah [13:16] well, with a screwdriver [13:16] ah ok [13:16] not glued down though [13:17] might be, but they can be removed [13:17] with a bit of effort [13:17] not something I do every day, so not an issue [13:17] unlike my drain cover which the patio guy cemented down [13:17] causing a bit of problem [13:17] hah [13:18] czajkowski, I ate all the haribo :S [13:18] I am a bad father [13:19] popey: you didnt share!

[14:08] More than I should. [14:13] * Seeker` imagines popey sitting on a mountin of haribo bags [14:16] * davmor2 buys a locked cabinet and gives the primary keys to Mrs Pope and the secondary lock keys to Master and Miss Pope to keep the Haribo safe while they are out [14:17] This laptop came with OpenOffice 4.1.2 installed [14:17] Don't think I've seen OOo for years [14:20] popey: don't just change the topic like that to tech talk to get out of being ashamed of eating all the haribo and ruining the lives of the poor children who are now haribo less [14:20] those poor children :( [14:24] popey: out of interest what laptop is it and is it windows based with ooo on it [14:24] It's a Thinkpad X1 Carbon [14:25] Yeah, Windows 7 64-bit [14:41] \o/ upgrading to windows 10 [14:47] You're having a fun day [15:02] Just found this bug, whilst poking 15.04. I find it highly amusing :) 1. Play audio through a displayport monitor 2. Using alsamixer mute the 1st S/PDIF channel. Result: audio mutes and the monitor goes blank, unmuting fixes it [15:03] Amusing [15:13] my work laptop failed to update [15:13] unknown error [15:33] lol [15:33] that's a fun bug [15:34] could be a great april fool joke [15:41] It might be specific to this monitor model or to DisplayPort. I couldn't reproduce it with an HDMI TV through a DP->HDMI adaptor, or the laptop's own HDMI [16:10] https://imgur.com/gallery/WESamuu [16:12] I don't get it [16:12] put your finger on the progress bar [16:12] to see if its moving [16:13] oh. no, I've never done that. [16:27] because we have mouse pointers [16:35] i have [16:38] popey: weirdo :-p [16:38] also done the puttint the mouse on screen too [16:39] the easiest way to see if it's doing something is to open a process monitor (on windows that'ld be taskman.exe, on a linuxy thing top or htop or simular) === alan_g is now known as alan_g|EOD === geheimni1` is now known as geheimnis` [19:55] flying cars: https://www.inverse.com/article/9967-human-carrying-ehang-drone-unveiled-at-ces-further-blurs-the-uav-av-line [19:57] with great power comes great willingness to use it [20:02] hi === pwaring_ is now known as pwaring [20:09] hi [20:16] popey: a bad time to buy euros it seems?

[20:19] i'm not sure what you're implying [20:19] I was kind of joking :) [20:21] yeah, just comes across quite dickish though [20:21] ever been to a open source event saying that? [20:21] that's a really stupid question [20:22] would that be an obscure hobby, to attend things then denounce them? [20:23] your sense of humour seems broken this evening daftykins [20:24] sebsebseb, yeah, I'm considering going, not sure yet [20:24] popey: did you go last year 2015? [20:24] I think you did [20:24] yes [20:24] just didn't see you there then [20:24] common result of #ubuntu idiots [20:24] daftykins: oh [20:24] but i still don't like sebsebseb's approach [20:25] alright. [20:25] popey: probably only time I am going abroad this year, so I'll try and make more the most of it [20:25] this time [20:25] I'm off to SCALE in a few weeks [20:25] your going tO SCALE WOW [20:25] with Canonical funding you to go though? [20:26] yeah, loads of us are going [20:26] oh nice [20:26] http://ubucon.org/en/ [20:26] I don't have money for that one etc, at the moment, so nope not going [20:28] popey: may as well do FOSDEM again if they are going to fund you to go :d [20:28] both I mean [20:28] Don't think they're funding me this time [20:28] Will find my own way [20:29] looks like a good Ubuntu turn out on the link you gave though [20:35] ...will blog for tickets... :-) [20:35] for which?

[22:05] sneakily ubuntu does a much more thorough calibration than the official software allows on osx [22:06] I've been meaning to get a Colorhug but I can't justify it for anything [22:06] the improvement over uncalibrated is immense [22:06] Myrtti: I was gonna get one of those but I decided to go for the more expensive option :-p === diddledan_ is now known as diddledan === Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away [22:49] http://gizmodo.com/geologists-found-a-rock-thats-older-than-earth-in-the-a-1751594778
