[09:05] <bigcalm> Good morning peeps :)
[09:15] <davmor2> Morning all you funky people
[09:21] <bigcalm> Who likes beer, steam trains and an evening of good/raucous fun? We need to find a date for this year's RAT: http://doodle.com/poll/qw7ehwk5dnweviyp
[09:28] <Laney> is there floor/sofa/bed space available?
[09:28] <Laney> :)
[09:29] <zmoylan-pi> how many tonnes of coal can you shovel per hour? :-P
[09:36] <davmor2> zmoylan-pi: depends how much I'm being paid
[09:36] <davmor2> bigcalm: bit early for you isn't it
[09:41] <bigcalm> davmor2: I'm here to promote the RAT
[09:42] <davmor2> bigcalm: you should talk to JamesTait he's caught a few apparently :D
[09:44] <zmoylan-pi> there's probably an ointment for that... :-)
[10:12] <MooDoo> roland rat?
[10:13] <zmoylan-pi> eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh
[10:14] <brobostigon> morning boys and girls.
[13:18] <bigcalm> Dave, popey, czajkowski: RAT? http://doodle.com/poll/qw7ehwk5dnweviyp
[13:21] <czajkowski> bigcalm: cheers
[13:24] <bigcalm> czajkowski: will you be married by then?
[13:25] <czajkowski> yup
[13:25] <Dave> already?
[13:25] <Dave> That was to the RAT survey
[13:25] <czajkowski> 5 weeks time
[13:25] <Dave> Not marriage.
[13:26] <bigcalm> Dave: yes, I started planning last years in Feb
[13:26] <bigcalm> It's a bit late this time
[13:28] <czajkowski>  /c
[13:29] <bigcalm> popey: I am holding you responsible for my ordering a Pebble Time
[13:29] <popey> Excellent.
[13:29] <popey> I love mine
[13:30] <bigcalm> Now that I've ordered it, I want it now!
[13:30] <bigcalm> I've become far too accustomed to Amazon Prime
[13:36] <popey> heh
[13:36] <popey> I have a keyboard arriving today
[13:37] <popey> was on special offer on amazon last week
[13:37] <zmoylan-pi> going cheap, great keyboard as long as you don't need the letter e? :-)
[13:39] <Myrtti> does RAT have any nice non-alcholic drinks or is it just ale and such?
[13:40] <Myrtti> and is the non-alcoholic just bogstandard cola and lemonade?
[13:40] <zmoylan-pi> that would be a great brand name for softdrinks... bogstandard... :-)
[13:41] <Myrtti> lol
[13:41] <Myrtti> true
[13:41] <Myrtti> gah I need to get dressed
[13:41] <Myrtti> jammin' in my jammies doesn't work when I need to do a village walk to the library and pharmacy
[13:42] <zmoylan-pi> for that you need a tux onsie... :-D
[13:43] <Myrtti> need to go flip some Which? magazines, not superexcited but someone has to do it
[13:43] <Myrtti> BBL
[13:46] <foobarry> what u choosing from which Myrtti
[13:46] <bigcalm> Myrtti: I think it's just your run of the mill cans and such. I'm not sure. Full details here: http://www.watercressline.co.uk/product.php/10/real-ale-train-r-a-t
[13:46] <zmoylan-pi> reading which which magazine to decide which which magazine to read...
[13:47] <foobarry> i'm in 2 minds about pi day
[13:47] <foobarry> due to the US date format, which is illogical
[13:48] <foobarry> we always have 22/7 but it is a poor approximation, but then again 3.14 is worse
[13:49] <Myrtti> foobarry: lots of things :-)
[13:49] <foobarry> does your library do online mag subs thru zinio?
[13:49] <Myrtti> bigcalm: yeah, that's what I thought. D doesn't drink and I don't much either so it's a bit meh if it's just RWhites and whatnot.
[13:49] <foobarry> mine does but most were gay times and hello magazine
[13:49] <Myrtti> foobarry: yeah, but I don't have a library card yet
[13:50] <Myrtti> so I can't log in
[13:50] <popey> \o/ new keyboard time
[13:51] <foobarry> cherry or nipple?
[13:52] <popey> cherry
[13:52] <popey> humph
[13:52] <popey> supposed to be uk layout, is US
[13:52] <foobarry> heh
[13:52]  * popey checks his order
[13:52] <foobarry> colleague had the same happen to him
[13:52] <foobarry> was a cheap chinese knockoff
[13:53] <foobarry> so is taking the keys and putting on a new keyboard "chassis"
[13:53] <popey> already pressed # instead of enter multiple times
[13:53] <popey> hah
[13:53] <zmoylan-pi> a mate ordered wireless keyboard and mouse set and got a wireless keyboard and wired mouse... not a happy bunny but it was exactly as described... :-P
[13:53] <popey> bah, it says english layout, should have checked better#
[13:53] <popey> gah!  😃
[13:54] <foobarry> US english.
[13:54] <foobarry> sneakty
[13:54] <foobarry> my local council website has every page that is the leaf of the html tree as a pdf
[13:54] <foobarry> really annoying
[13:55] <foobarry> you can't just browse the site looking for the info u want
[13:58] <foobarry> ooh it appears my library now has better zinio mags
[13:58] <foobarry> linux format, linux user, finescale modeler
[13:59] <foobarry> 2 different minecraft mags , 4 different quilting
[14:02] <popey> good job this keyboard is actually for the "gaming" computer
[14:02] <zmoylan-pi> enough quilting magazine to make a bigger magazine... :-)
[14:07] <Myrtti> lol
[15:37] <Seeker`> popey: what games do you play?
[15:39] <popey> Seeker`: mostly stuff on steam
[15:39] <popey> popeydc is my steam id if you want to see :)
[15:40] <Seeker`> I'll have a look when I get home :)
[15:40] <Myrtti> and to my disappointment it turns out that the village library doesn't in fact carry Which? magazine. And no library card means no online mags either.
[15:40] <davmor2> Seeker`: popey plays monkey island, jetset willy, manic miner, and beneath a steel sky if he says anything else he is lying ;)
[15:41] <Seeker`> no leisure suit larry?
[15:41] <popey> i got scummvm working on ubuntu phone
[15:41] <davmor2> Seeker`: only after completing guantlet
[15:41] <popey> so yeah, leisure suit larry could be :)
[15:42] <diddledan> larry ftw!
[15:43] <diddledan> new series I been watching - just started airing on alibi - quantico. tis awesome!
[15:44] <diddledan> another one that looks like it's gonna turn out fun is blindspot
[16:14] <foobarry> has anyone used rpy2 for mixing python code with R?
[16:19] <davmor2> john oliver on encryption hilarious sadly true but hilarious :)
[16:19] <davmor2> nsfw
[16:19] <diddledan> wtf? MS actually have their own distro of Linux based on Debian (specialised for network switches) http://www.theregister.co.uk/2016/03/09/microsoft_sonic_debian/
[16:19] <diddledan> davmor2, no linky?
[16:21] <davmor2> diddledan: first they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win
[16:21] <diddledan> davmor2, does that fall under the "embrace, extend, extinguish" banner? :--p
[16:24] <davmor2> diddledan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=012tbFzd0R4
[16:25] <diddledan> danke
[16:28] <Myrtti> diddledan: https://twitter.com/mjg59/status/707868846812741633
[16:28] <diddledan> lol
[16:29] <Myrtti> well, turns out Zinio doesn't even have Which?, so that's moot too. I need to go to the town to fiddle with the physical copies then
[21:31] <popey> ali1234: saw this and thought of you https://twitter.com/grim_fandango/status/709490922883575810
[21:32] <ali1234> popey: he's my only user
[21:32] <popey> hah!
[21:32] <ali1234> http://www.alphr.com/life-culture/1002880/the-teletext-salvagers-how-vhs-is-bringing-teletext-back-from-the-dead
[21:34] <popey> oh I'd not seen it written up
[21:35] <ali1234> i dont think anyone did
[21:36] <ali1234> i got more emails after it was on boingboing
[21:36] <ali1234> more than zero that is :)
[21:36] <ali1234> also pretty sure that is where mr o'malley saw it
[21:41] <popey> :)
[21:41] <popey> is he just collecting VHS tapes and scouring them for teletext streams?
[21:41] <ali1234> yes? also other teletext related activities, but i don't know exactly what
[21:42] <ali1234> there's a facebook group... but i don't check it that often.... because facebook
[21:44] <popey> neat
[21:44] <ali1234> there's also a podcast :)
[21:48] <popey> a podcast, about teletext in 2016? :)
[21:48] <popey> brilliant
[21:48] <ali1234> i warn you know, it's not a high quality production
[21:48] <ali1234> but yes
[21:48] <zmoylan-pi> you have to listen to it 2-3 times before it makes sense? :-)
[21:48] <ali1234> sometimes
[21:49] <ali1234> they do talk over each other a lot, and then don't edit it out
[21:49] <popey> please tell me episode one is numbered 100 ?
[21:49] <ali1234> sadly not
[21:50] <zmoylan-pi> 103 tells you were all the good episodes will be...
[22:10] <diddledan> I wonder why amazon doesn't support Firefox for HTML5 video?
[22:10] <diddledan> only Chrome is supported on loonicks
[22:10] <diddledan> better than nothing though
[22:17] <ahayzen> probably the same DRM reason as netflix ?
[22:18] <diddledan> I thought Firefox did DRM these days?
[22:18] <ahayzen> not sure i remember it having parts of it
[22:19] <ahayzen> maybe try changing the user agent and see if they are just blacklisting :-)
