[05:02] <mappps> hi all
[05:02] <mappps> watching deal or no deal..how exciting;D
[08:11] <brobostigon> morning boys and girls.
[08:18] <MartijnVdS> \o
[08:24] <brobostigon> morning MartijnVdS
[08:32] <knightwise> morning guys
[08:32] <brobostigon> morning knightwise
[08:38] <knightwise> so, i appear not to be the only one stuck behind the keyboard on this fine sunny day :p
[08:46] <brobostigon> it was sunny here yesterday, its more cloudy here today.
[08:51] <knightwise> looking at a sunny day here today .
[08:51] <knightwise> Reinstalled my home server this week. Now settng up the final details :)
[08:51] <knightwise> pretty cool thingie this Acer Revo
[08:52] <knightwise> looks like a giant tictac
[08:53] <brobostigon> :)
[08:54] <knightwise> hardly any fan noise , not the fastest machine on the block but it runs plex and a couple of scripts flawlessy
[08:55] <knightwise> hmm.. now to find out how to make some simlinks.
[08:55] <brobostigon> :)
[08:55] <knightwise> I have stored the config files for podget and newsbeuter in my dropbox folder . Now i have to figure out how to point to them
[08:57] <brobostigon> i said its cloudy and that moment the sun shines through the window, oh well.
[09:31] <dwatkins> I think my Ubuntu install needs an update, it's still running Saucy.
[09:33] <knightwise> dwatkins: about time :)
[09:33] <dwatkins> yeah, I rather like the wibbly windows - is there a way to do that on the most recent version?
[09:34] <knightwise> time to walk the doggies for a bit :) bbl
[09:34] <dwatkins> ciao
[09:38] <popey> yes
[09:38] <popey> switch to ubuntu mate
[09:38] <dwatkins> okay dokey, also happy birthday popey :)
[09:38] <popey> (if your machine is so old that it's on saucy, it'll probably run ubuntu mate fine)
[09:38] <popey> it's not my birthday today, but thanks :)
[09:38] <dwatkins> it's a core i7, should be fine
[09:38] <popey> oh!  😃
[09:39] <dwatkins> :)
[09:40] <dwatkins> I wonder why my browser thought it was, strange.
[09:40] <dwatkins> A Very happy unbirthday to (almost) everyone!
[09:42] <MartijnVdS> I run Debian testing + Cinnamon on my desktop these days
[09:43] <popey> (It's tomorrow)
[09:46] <directhex> popey: hard disks suck :(
[09:46] <popey> Yes.
[09:47] <popey> 6 years old.
[09:54] <directhex> popey: 2 failed disks less than 2 days old each!
[09:54] <directhex> well, pre-fail
[09:54] <directhex> SMART says "replace"
[10:03] <popey> directhex: do you have any steam controllers?
[10:04] <popey> One of mine flat refuses to work in game, but works fine in steam / overlay
[11:06] <directhex> popey: 2!
[11:07] <popey> I can't fathom what's up with it
[11:07] <popey> i should plug directly into pc and try it actually
[12:40] <penguin42> does asda.com look like it's lost it's css to anyone else?
[13:29] <zmoylan-pi> looks a tad wonky on firefox on xubuntu
[13:32] <zmoylan-pi> but looks fine in vivaldi my alternate browser
[13:33] <zmoylan-pi> reload in firefox and... broken
[13:34] <zmoylan-pi> fine in midori
[13:36]  * zmoylan-pi goes looking for chromium...
[13:36] <zmoylan-pi> and fine in chromium...
[13:38] <zmoylan-pi> restart firefox... and broken
[13:38] <penguin42> hmm that's the 2nd thing in 2 days that hasnt worked in ff but has in chrome
[13:38] <zmoylan-pi> css... work...
[15:03] <ali1234> surveymonkey.com
[15:03] <ali1234> sorry, surveymonkey.co.uk is doing the same thing
[15:03] <ali1234> no css in firefox
[15:04] <ali1234> it looks as if ublock is blocking the css
[15:05] <ali1234> different problem with asda though
[15:06] <penguin42> but I don't have any of the blocking things
[15:49] <popey> ali1234: have you ever played rust?
[15:50] <ali1234> no
[16:06] <ali1234> popey: why do you ask?
[16:08] <daftykins> i had some friends talking about it, so i thought i'd look up a video... it looks very basic
[16:09] <ali1234> video might be old? it's been early access for like three years
[16:53] <daftykins> as a concept really
[16:55] <user_9876> http://adfoc.us/2542957954871
[16:56] <daftykins> what is this...
[16:58] <daftykins> mmhmm.
[17:26] <penguin42> http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-lancashire-35953847 is very odd
[17:28] <daftykins> hrmm very light on detail
[17:28] <penguin42> yeh, as is the tweet from lancs police
[17:32] <penguin42> it's odd that they haven't been able to wake someone from Santander
[17:33] <ali1234> santander says they deactivated them. lancashire police says they haven't
[17:34] <penguin42> oh, I hadn't seen anything from Santander
[17:35] <ali1234> it's on the same article
[17:35] <ali1234> my guess is the police removed a load of skimmers, told santander, santander said "sorry we're a bank we don't work on sundays"
[17:35] <penguin42> haha
[17:37] <daftykins> sounds fair
[17:37] <ali1234> police aren't ATM engineers so they have no way of knowing if the machines are now safe to use. so they issue this tweet
[17:38] <popey> ali1234: just thought it might be a game you'd enjoy
[17:38] <penguin42> anyway, hopefully the crooks have run off to Yorkshire
[17:38] <ali1234> popey: thanks. i'm not a big fan of PvP games though
[17:50] <knightwise> popey: once again , thanx for pointing me at Colussus, realy enjoyed that
[17:50] <popey> yay
[17:52] <knightwise> in return I trade you : Fail Safe
[17:52] <knightwise> https://johendriks.wordpress.com/2012/05/16/fail-safe-what-if-w-h-o-p-p-e-r-did-fire-the-missiles-in-war-games-3/
[17:53] <penguin42> is this as in the early computer-vs-computer war film Colossus?
[17:53] <knightwise> penguin42: correct.
[17:53] <penguin42> ooh I hadn't heard of failsafe
[17:54] <knightwise> Its good. its a movie from the late 50's but the story is very chilling.
[17:54] <penguin42> incidentally, you do know that the one critical mistake in Wargames was that the launch codes were actually set as all 0's for 20 years?
[17:55] <knightwise> Djeez
[17:56] <knightwise> same thing with the auto distruct sequences for the enterprise
[17:56] <penguin42> http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2013/12/launch-code-for-us-nukes-was-00000000-for-20-years/
[17:56] <knightwise> haven't changed since TOS
[17:57] <penguin42> oh yes, what is it again, Picard, alpha 1 alpha  or something?
[17:58] <knightwise> http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Auto-destruct
[18:01] <popey> ooh, thanks knightwise
[18:02] <popey> penguin42: yeah, I got Colossus on DVD for my birthday a few years back. I love it
[18:02] <penguin42> hmm haven't seen it for a long long time
[18:03] <knightwise> no prob popey :) hope you enjoy it :)
[20:30] <zmoylan-pi> the skimmers on atms is getting to the point they'll have to i dunno have a special building were humans handle the cash... and we shall call them... banks...
[20:37] <daftykins> nobody wants those :)
[20:42] <zmoylan-pi> but queueing!! the british love a good queue!! :-P
[20:52] <zmoylan-pi> it'll be indoors and dry so you can get some serious queueing done...
[20:58] <daftykins> does Ireland not have queues for ATMs? :D
[20:58] <zmoylan-pi> we have huddles trying to stay dry and out of the wind... more a march of the penguins thing happening... :-)
[21:02] <daftykins> :D
