[00:43] <_Sponge> The creator sold it to ITV for £125 million in 2005.
[00:44] <_Sponge> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friends_Reunited
[00:44] <_Sponge> Sad to see it go.
[00:44] <_Sponge> Could it run as a semi-offline App in Ubuntu ?
[00:44] <_Sponge> Probably worth £10 grand or so.
[00:46]  * _Sponge wonders how messaging would work with six-weekly updates ?
[00:47] <_Sponge> Probably so few people using it that you'd run the whole messaging service on about 20MegaBytes.

[10:36] <foobarry> can i put /quote PASS in my irssi config?
[10:37] <foobarry> to automatically login and pass
[10:38] <Myrtti> for freenode?
[10:38] <Myrtti> or in general?
[10:39] <foobarry> for each irc net , but irc.net in particular because i keep getting disconnected and losing connection
[10:39] <foobarry> and it isn't logging me back in automagically
[10:39] <Myrtti> If freenode, check http://freenode.net/sasl/
[10:39] <Myrtti> ircnet has a password? that's new
[10:40] <foobarry> oh, my bouncer does
[10:40] <foobarry> thanks
[10:41] <Myrtti> also /help network
[11:46] <\s__> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14678503/ HUH?
[11:46] <\s__> why is 91.189.91.15 down? (it isnt)
[11:47] <directhex> it's not
[11:47] <\s__> yeah but it says it is
[11:47] <directhex> it says 404
[11:47] <\s__> 404 means not found
[11:48] <directhex> yes.
[11:48] <directhex> because utopic (14.10) isn't available on the upgrade server any more
[11:48] <\s__> 404 not found thus down but when i go there it isnt
[11:48] <\s__> right?
[11:49] <\s__> so i have to start over in april?
[11:49] <directhex> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[11:49] <\s__> thats stupid
[11:50] <\s__> urgh
[11:50] <directhex> you can upgrade from LTS to LTS (so you can upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04, in april), or you need to do some manual hackery to do 14.04->14.10->15.04->15.10 to do short-term upgrades after some of those short-term releases are EOL
[11:50] <\s__> anual hackery to do 14.04->14.10->15.04->15.10 is what i was trying to do
[11:52] <\s__> im annoyed; im going to go shoot some pharmacuticals (im on cancer drugs.. i may have cancer but heh im still humorous)
[11:55] <Myrtti> gee, thanks. Now I've got Elton John's Circle of Life in my head...
[11:55] <Myrtti> damnit
[12:04] <davmor2> Myrtti: lucky you I have hit me baby one more time stuck in my head
[12:05] <Myrtti> well it's not that bad clearly, how hard can babies hit you?

[15:34] <Laney> martin lewis would have me for breakfast
[15:35] <Seeker`> :O
[15:35] <Seeker`> I hate the idea of paying off my student loan faster than I have to. I also hate having a student loan. Currently I hate the former more than the latter.
[15:36] <Seeker`> I think I've still got ~4k left
[15:36] <diddledan> davmor2: +1 on the sweet like chocolate choice
[15:36] <davmor2> diddledan: hahaha :)
[15:37] <davmor2> Laney: Congratulation dude :)  How long did that take?
[15:37] <Laney> davmor2: I graduated in 2008 :P
[15:37] <Laney> but didn't actually start repaying for a few years after that
[15:38] <Seeker`> I graduated in 2008 too. And started repaying that year. Not fair :P
[15:38] <davmor2> Laney: that's not too shabby at all then dude well done, what you gonna put that money toward now your house and get your mortgage paid off faster?
[15:38] <Laney> ummm
[15:39] <Laney> got some "home improvements" to get done
[15:39] <davmor2> Laney: oh well that's an investment too :)
[15:39] <Laney> save up for that canal boat
[15:39] <Laney> ohhh yeahhhh

[15:39] <diddledan> :-o
[15:40] <Laney> hahaha as if
[15:40] <Laney> good to have dreams though, right?
[15:40] <diddledan> I don't think I'll ever be able to retire :-p
[15:40] <davmor2> Laney: no you won't you love the pain of software too much ;)
[15:40] <diddledan> \o/ soft wares!
[15:40] <diddledan> or should that be warez?
[15:41]  * diddledan shows his 90s illegal download knowledge
[15:42] <Laney> davmor2: then I'll cruise around the waterways of the UK fixing the bugs that bother *me* and not ones which QA engineers dig up :P
[15:42] <davmor2> Laney: pfff you make it sound like I have to look :P
[15:44] <Laney> got to keep each other in work eh
[15:44] <Laney> (for now...)
[15:46] <diddledan> davmor2: do you attract bugs like daftykins does with hard disks?
[15:46] <diddledan> speaky of whom.. where's dafty?
[15:47] <davmor2> diddledan: No, no I write the bugs and destroy developers hopes and dreams
[15:48] <diddledan> \o/
