|---|---|---|
| diddledan | I like how they use the first three adapters even though they clearly had a ps2 port available next to the PSU | 00:43 |
| daftykins | ;) | 01:05 |
| daftykins | it didn't seem to be an exercise in functionality | 01:05 |
| knightwise | Morningn peeps | 06:43 |
| daftykins | g'morn \o | 06:43 |
| daftykins | another plane lost :| | 06:43 |
| daftykins | https://www.flightradar24.com/data/flights/ms804/#9c0b766 | 06:43 |
| diplo | Morning all | 06:49 |
| daftykins | \o | 06:51 |
| Switches | Morning | 07:33 |
| daftykins | \o | 07:34 |
| Switches | Heya daftykins, hows you? | 07:41 |
| brobostigon | morning boys and girls. | 07:43 |
| daftykins | heyoooo o/ | 07:43 |
| Switches | hey brobostigon | 07:43 |
| daftykins | all good here thanks Switches! pottering about today :) and thee? | 07:43 |
| Switches | Yeah not bad mate, just doing my usual, reading and drinking coffee :) | 07:44 |
| brobostigon | morning daftykins and Switches | 07:45 |
| daftykins | same here! although my coffee seems to have evaporated | 07:45 |
| Switches | :o time for a refill then bud | 07:46 |
| daftykins | >:) | 07:46 |
| foobarry | wow dell completly disabled one finger scrolling on their drivers for windows | 08:09 |
| daftykins | o0 | 08:10 |
| daftykins | like the edge scroll zones? | 08:10 |
| daftykins | maybe some generic drivers'd work if it is lacking in the settings, but it's all about two finger! | 08:10 |
| foobarry | two finger suck | 08:11 |
| foobarry | especially their implementation | 08:11 |
| foobarry | it keeps bouncing back up the screen again | 08:11 |
| daftykins | that's pretty common now, mmm | 08:11 |
| daftykins | touchpad on my XPS13 is amazing under windows 10 :D | 08:11 |
| daftykins | finally they catch up to Apple standard (i'm sad to admit) | 08:12 |
| foobarry | oh wow | 08:12 |
| foobarry | there's a hidden utility | 08:12 |
| daftykins | :O | 08:12 |
| foobarry | instead of delltouchpad.exe (the default tray icon) | 08:12 |
| foobarry | there exists a delltpad.exe with the one finger stuff | 08:13 |
| foobarry | one a need to know basis! | 08:13 |
| daftykins | to do Windows right, you need a nice clean install without this crap | 08:13 |
| daftykins | smells like a factory install to me :) | 08:13 |
| foobarry | i did that i think | 08:14 |
| foobarry | but installed some dell drivers to make all the ! go away | 08:15 |
| daftykins | hrmm | 08:16 |
| daftykins | must be contaminated! :> | 08:16 |
| davmor2 | Morning mortals | 08:19 |
| SuperMatt | morning oh immortal god of the underworld, davmor2 | 08:29 |
| SuperMatt | we offer un to you this sacrifice of foobarry | 08:29 |
| * daftykins helps prepare the sacrifice | 08:30 | |
| davmor2 | SuperMatt: hahahaha | 08:30 |
| foobarry | ..................)o) | 08:31 |
| SuperMatt | YOU SHALL NOT FLEE THE WRATH OF THE GREAT ONE | 08:31 |
| davmor2 | foobarry: see how they pick on you | 08:31 |
| foobarry | please believe me oh great tux, i have not used windows as my main desktop for 15 years | 08:32 |
| davmor2 | so the youtube scope on the phone list a new star trek tv series hmmmmmmmmm | 08:32 |
| foobarry | i notice some sour grapes on behalf of omgubntun that they didn't get a review copy of the m10 tablet | 08:32 |
| daftykins | indeedy! CBS trying again | 08:32 |
| foobarry | keep carping on about bad reviews constantly | 08:33 |
| daftykins | the best i could manage was an eyebrow raise in the style of Spock | 08:33 |
| davmor2 | daftykins: hahaha | 08:33 |
| SuperMatt | foobarry: my guess is that they weren't sent a copy because the OEM were relying on a favourable review from them no matter what | 08:34 |
| SuperMatt | Joey clearly saw through that | 08:34 |
| foobarry | however clearly sour graps | 08:34 |
| foobarry | no need to search out bad reviews | 08:34 |
| foobarry | and keep mentining it | 08:34 |
| foobarry | clearly won't be considered next time | 08:34 |
| SuperMatt | to be honest, it looks like a dreadful device, so it should be panned | 08:35 |
| davmor2 | SuperMatt: more the fact that they were limited number of devices, and as an insider he already has two devices that are his not just on loan | 08:36 |
| foobarry | awww no bash on win10 for me | 08:36 |
| daftykins | y'gotta be running the latest insider preview | 08:36 |
| foobarry | meh | 08:36 |
| davmor2 | foobarry: don't you need the developer version or something | 08:36 |
| daftykins | that too | 08:37 |
| foobarry | what daftykins said | 08:37 |
| foobarry | i have build 10586 | 08:37 |
| daftykins | good ol' stock | 08:37 |
| foobarry | i only wanted windows for 2 apps | 08:38 |
| foobarry | and 1 is n/a :( | 08:38 |
| davmor2 | so this is the song stuck in my head this morning https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvgZkm1xWPE | 08:38 |
| foobarry | is it the frankfurter song? | 08:38 |
| daftykins | apps? o0 | 08:38 |
| davmor2 | foobarry: no | 08:38 |
| daftykins | not available in my country | 08:38 |
| daftykins | WAT. | 08:38 |
| davmor2 | daftykins: vmware vsphere client and Ubuntu on windows | 08:39 |
| foobarry | or whats that song with the fat kid rama aaaa duma eee eee | 08:39 |
| foobarry | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9mojl_MBDg | 08:40 |
| foobarry | thats the one | 08:40 |
| daftykins | nooooo :P | 08:40 |
| daftykins | i just read vsphere for Windows is getting canned, it's all going HTML5 only | 08:41 |
| davmor2 | foobarry: ^ what he said also I noticed they said there was a browser version | 08:41 |
| foobarry | need it until web client is up to scratch | 08:41 |
| foobarry | the workflow on the web client is unbelievably sucky | 08:42 |
| daftykins | i remember playing with vmware server 1.x -> 2.0 and cringing at the web admin | 08:42 |
| foobarry | everything hidden under related items | 08:42 |
| foobarry | also keyboard shortcuts are the way to go in the client | 08:42 |
| daftykins | mmm that would be a pain to go without | 08:43 |
| JamesTait | Good morning all! Happy Thursday, and happy Devil’s Food Cake Day! 😃 🎂 | 08:44 |
| daftykins | ooh my that sounds like a good day | 08:44 |
| JamesTait | Yes, I definitely approve. | 08:44 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fh9OzTL0iQc | 08:50 |
| foobarry | numa numa guy made an updated version. it was terrible | 09:52 |
| SuperMatt | It wasn't great to begin with | 10:00 |
| daftykins | wow, in my head i thought you guys were talking about Non Uniform Memory Architecture | 10:09 |
| SuperMatt | if only | 10:10 |
| SuperMatt | instead we were discussing the scrapping of the bottom of the popular culture barrel | 10:11 |
| daftykins | seeing that large chap sing certainly makes my memory non-uniform | 10:11 |
| Myrtti | reminder: change your LinkedIn passwords | 10:56 |
| zmoylan-pi | won't matter, linked in will still find you... :-P | 10:56 |
| daftykins | seems so! anyone that had an account in 2012 anyway | 10:56 |
| Myrtti | https://motherboard.vice.com/read/another-day-another-hack-117-million-linkedin-emails-and-password | 10:57 |
| TwistedLucidity | Myrtti: Change you password 3 years ago | 10:58 |
| Myrtti | still doesn't hurt to change it again... | 10:58 |
| knightwise | afternoon peepz | 10:59 |
| SuperMatt | not yet | 10:59 |
| SuperMatt | someone's a little premature | 10:59 |
| * knightwise is not in your timezone ! | 10:59 | |
| SuperMatt | now! | 11:00 |
| knightwise | Stickler ! | 11:00 |
| zmoylan-pi | maybe they're east of greenwich and calculating local time on sundial? | 11:00 |
| knightwise | Me has a sundail wristwatch | 11:01 |
| knightwise | I call it the "whatever-i-want-it-to-be-o'clock" | 11:01 |
| zmoylan-pi | i always liked the personal sundials from animated around the world in 80 days | 11:01 |
| foobarry | Myrtti: is there a list we can check of linkedin? | 11:03 |
| knightwise | ? list , | 11:03 |
| foobarry | leaked usernames | 11:03 |
| daftykins | like searchable data he means | 11:04 |
| foobarry | yeah | 11:04 |
| daftykins | so you can find out if you got nobbled | 11:04 |
| TwistedLucidity | Probably safest to assume "Yes" and change it | 11:04 |
| * TwistedLucidity hates LinkedIn | 11:04 | |
| * knightwise lives by it | 11:04 | |
| Myrtti | foobarry: I always just assume mine got leaked and change it anyway instead of possibly leaking more information | 11:04 |
| foobarry | emails and encrypted passwords leaked | 11:05 |
| foobarry | As this data set also originates from the 2012 hack, these passwords are encrypted in the same way – with “no salt” – meaning they are more easily cracked | 11:05 |
| TwistedLucidity | knightwise: Too much spam from them, all I ever got was annoyance from recruiters; so I stripped all the data I could. Can't see the value in it. | 11:05 |
| foobarry | so if i changed it after the 2012 hack i'm ok i guess | 11:05 |
| knightwise | i'm a freelance consultant so .. its like the red light district for me | 11:06 |
| TwistedLucidity | Ahhh....that would be different. | 11:07 |
| daftykins | took me a while to get that comparison XD | 11:07 |
| knightwise | daftykins: :) your innocence is charming | 11:08 |
| TwistedLucidity | What I never understood about recruiters is why they ignore your preferences "Permi job, Central belt Scotlan"...can get repeated call with "Would you like a 3 month contract in London?" err...no | 11:08 |
| daftykins | knightwise: nah i was just thinking "does knightwise mean as a customer or..." | 11:08 |
| zmoylan-pi | the commute would be interesting... | 11:08 |
| knightwise | daftykins: i'm a freelance consultant | 11:08 |
| daftykins | ja but the red light bit | 11:09 |
| daftykins | it's ok, all understood now :) | 11:09 |
| knightwise | https://www.linkedin.com/in/hendriksjo | 11:09 |
| TwistedLucidity | zmoylan-pi: No one could pay me enough to go back to London. Horrible place. | 11:09 |
| zmoylan-pi | the fun the excitement and that's just finding a place to live that you can afford... | 11:10 |
| TwistedLucidity | Barcelona? Yeah, that I would do in a heartbeat. But no hablo Espanol (or Catalan) | 11:10 |
| TwistedLucidity | Sorry, missed the ñ there | 11:11 |
| daftykins | :) | 11:11 |
| daftykins | i'm popping down again through Malaga for a brief work trip | 11:11 |
| daftykins | gotta set up a fancy WiMAX internet connection down there, very novel territory | 11:12 |
| knightwise | daftykins: that is cool | 11:13 |
| TwistedLucidity | daftykins: Fancy a trip North? Internet up there is shocking. | 11:14 |
| daftykins | hehe, ah this is only as a consumer really. is BT's investment really low up where you are, or are you outside their net? | 11:14 |
| TwistedLucidity | Outside I think, it's Telefonica-Movistar | 11:15 |
| daftykins | could be pretty cool to be such a provider, although wireless tech is probably a bit scary to work with regularly | 11:15 |
| daftykins | oh North Spain you meant? | 11:15 |
| TwistedLucidity | Aye | 11:15 |
| daftykins | my mistake, was thinking England/Scotland | 11:15 |
| TwistedLucidity | That's a different problem. | 11:16 |
| * TwistedLucidity glowers at VirginMedia | 11:16 | |
| daftykins | amusingly my clients apparently lucky to have a wired landline, but they've had the ADSL service in there be down for weeks at a time O_O everything else in the area is this funky WiMAX from masts up on the hills | 11:16 |
| TwistedLucidity | Yeah, that's pretty much my experience as well. Pay for 20Mb, get 1Mb if yer lucky. | 11:17 |
| daftykins | utilities seem a bit third world in general really in Spain to me :S | 11:17 |
| daftykins | i remember reading about the limited power consumption that Lester Haines fella from theregister.co.uk had in a place down there, and sure enough my client had the same situation - they couldn't run the AC at the same time as a hairdryer in their apartment before the current refurb :D | 11:18 |
| TwistedLucidity | I can see the fibre getting laid but there appears to be (skirting close to stereotype here) a certain lack of work ethic | 11:18 |
| TwistedLucidity | In all things | 11:18 |
| TwistedLucidity | I paid for urgent shipping of an item - it took a month to get from Spain to the UK. | 11:19 |
| daftykins | :/ | 11:20 |
| TwistedLucidity | What is well set-up though it health care. Probably from all the conniptions people have trying to get a contractor to do their job! | 11:20 |
| daftykins | good to know! looked like there could be some good downhill mountain biking down there | 11:22 |
| TwistedLucidity | The ambulance drivers are all rally-cross competitors I think. They'll hit the forest trails and simply not slow down. | 11:22 |
| daftykins | hahaha | 11:24 |
| daftykins | come to think of it, i did say on my last trip that the southern spain look reminded me of colin mcrae rally gaming | 11:25 |
| knightwise | http://quidsup.net/tutorials/?p=retrogame anyone tried this yet ? | 11:33 |
| TwistedLucidity | knightwise: I've used RetroPi, which is another Emulation Station based thing | 11:35 |
| knightwise | TwistedLucidity: i tried that on the pi | 11:36 |
| knightwise | but now i would like to play some classics on the xps | 11:36 |
| zmoylan-pi | define classics, pong, 8bit, 16bit, nintendo? | 11:37 |
| knightwise | nintendo | 11:37 |
| knightwise | some galaga and super mario | 11:37 |
| TwistedLucidity | I seem to remember reading that the Kodi-devs were looking at adding better support for emulators etc | 11:37 |
| knightwise | when I can play super mario on the xps with a gamepad i'm happy :) | 11:39 |
| * zmoylan-pi was just looking for some old program for my psion and found my zx spectrum emulator for it... :-) | 11:42 | |
| daftykins | it's a-me, maaaaario | 11:42 |
| knightwise | I just love that stuff | 11:44 |
| knightwise | I have a bunch of roms i found for my retropi project | 11:44 |
| knightwise | Outrun , | 11:45 |
| knightwise | green berret | 11:45 |
| knightwise | shinobi :) | 11:45 |
| knightwise | (c64 classics) | 11:45 |
| zmoylan-pi | i keep tau ceti, jet pac, bomb jack around | 11:46 |
| knightwise | https://archive.org/details/internetarcade | 11:55 |
| foobarry | i got a peter rabbit 50p coin | 12:07 |
| foobarry | apparently quite rare | 12:07 |
| zmoylan-pi | rare rabbit.... mmmmm | 12:07 |
| Myrtti | foobarry: so do I! | 12:12 |
| Myrtti | paid £55 for it tho | 12:13 |
| foobarry | i was usinght eself service and noticed it. | 12:13 |
| foobarry | oh you got the colour one? | 12:13 |
| Myrtti | yeah | 12:13 |
| foobarry | they are worth load now | 12:13 |
| Myrtti | tempted by the others but I think we'll pass | 12:13 |
| foobarry | value will drop | 12:13 |
| TwistedLucidity | I have an old G-Shock is is now (apparently) eye-wateringly expensive | 12:13 |
| TwistedLucidity | Scared to wear the blasted thing! | 12:14 |
| bigcalm | Good morning peeps :) | 12:14 |
| foobarry | Myrtti:£250+ ? | 12:14 |
| Myrtti | £15 more like | 12:15 |
| Myrtti | judging from eBay | 12:15 |
| foobarry | i got the non colour one and wanted to keep it so had to put a £10 note in the machine to pay the last 10p of my breakfast | 12:15 |
| foobarry | Myrtti: i see a lot of colour ones going for 250-350£ | 12:16 |
| foobarry | the non colour is more like £2 | 12:16 |
| Myrtti | oh no, yes, 250 | 12:16 |
| foobarry | completed sales too | 12:16 |
| foobarry | gonna reconsider? | 12:16 |
| Myrtti | what, selling it? | 12:16 |
| foobarry | yeah | 12:17 |
| daftykins | that's quite the chunk of change | 12:17 |
| Myrtti | oh no. It's a present for a baby not born yet | 12:17 |
| foobarry | aww | 12:17 |
| daftykins | value in things that don't serve a purpose mystifies me | 12:17 |
| foobarry | i.e "collectors edition" anything | 12:18 |
| Myrtti | daftykins: yeah we did spend a good amount of time considering would it be a good idea to buy it or not, but it's quite small in comparison to Toby jugs or Royal Doulton stuff | 12:18 |
| Myrtti | it's just nice to give something that's got a bit of value and a stamp of their birth year | 12:19 |
| Myrtti | I've got the Queen's Diamond Jubilee stamp on my engagement ring just for the sentimental value of having it | 12:19 |
| foobarry | my wife loves BPotter | 12:19 |
| daftykins | Barry Potter? :) | 12:20 |
| foobarry | and my kids watch it all the time (the older bbc animated series with niamh cusack) | 12:20 |
| daftykins | "Greek state-run TV is confirming that debris from the missing EgyptAir plane has been found 230 nautical miles west of the Mediterranean island of Crete" | 13:25 |
| daftykins | erk | 13:25 |
| zmoylan-pi | horrible but at least this time they found the plane... | 13:28 |
| daftykins | indeed | 13:28 |
| zmoylan-pi | and eventually most likely will find what caused it to come down | 13:28 |
| diplo | Anyone used https://taiga.io ? | 13:51 |
| SuperMatt | daftykins: it's not been confirmed to be debris from the plane | 14:32 |
| SuperMatt | but it's the best bet right now | 14:32 |
| daftykins | yeah, i'm on one of those live update feeds so it changes constantly | 14:33 |
| SuperMatt | I'm following the guardian, because they're very good at relaying up to date information, but keeping it within the context of what is actually known | 14:34 |
| daftykins | that's where i pasted it from as it goes, perhaps the summaries are better than the live | 14:35 |
| TwistedLucidity | Am I wrong in thinking there's spate a spate of Airbuses have unplanned ground interfaces of late? | 14:36 |
| TwistedLucidity | "been a spate" | 14:36 |
| diddledan | unplanned ground interface. I like that description. | 14:37 |
| SuperMatt | I don't think there is a particular manufacturer to blame | 14:37 |
| daftykins | even if there were, it'd be more a point at the airline than the plane i'd think | 14:39 |
| zmoylan-pi | or the sub contractor who repaired it | 14:40 |
| SuperMatt | The chance of it being terrorism is relatively high though. It's a Egyption flight, travelling from France, two things which have been targetted by (isis|isil|daesh) a lot recently | 14:41 |
| zmoylan-pi | the altitude rules out a missile as it takes a bit to get missile up there so would be spotted more than likely | 14:42 |
| SuperMatt | sure, unlikely a missile | 14:43 |
| SuperMatt | so it could be something in the hold, or a human intervention | 14:44 |
| zmoylan-pi | far more likely | 14:44 |
| SuperMatt | though I would have thought CDG would have better security than the Egyptian airports | 14:45 |
| TwistedLucidity | Lots on people potential sympathetic towards terrorists flight-side. They revoked access for 60 in the previous security review | 14:51 |
| SuperMatt | yeah, I was thinking that could be a possibility | 14:51 |
| SuperMatt | I don't imagine baggage handlers are well paid, and it wouldn't take much for one to be able to stow something on a plane | 14:51 |
| TwistedLucidity | This is why we need more education and to stop supporting despots | 14:52 |
| SuperMatt | JC4PM! | 14:52 |
| TwistedLucidity | Julius Ceaser 4 Prime Minister? | 14:53 |
| bashrc | SuperMatt: how many planes crash due to aliens, and how many from other causes. The probability is that aliens were not involved. | 14:55 |
| SuperMatt | I'm only talking terrorism at the moment because that's the direction experts appear to be looking right now | 14:56 |
| bashrc | s/aliens/terrorists | 14:56 |
| foobarry | http://www.relativelyinteresting.com/heres-what-the-bigfoot-patterson-gimlin-film-looks-like-when-its-stabilized/ | 14:57 |
| SuperMatt | I know what you're saying. I'm a little sceptical about it being terrorists, but the chance is still higher than it would have been for any other flight, just due to the Paris/Egypt connection - it's a big coincidence if not terrorism | 14:58 |
| Seeker` | I think it's probably better to wait until there are some facts, rather than going "it's probably terrorism" | 15:17 |
| SuperMatt | again, not what I said. I said the chance is *relatively higher* than normal due to some of the circumstances | 15:18 |
| diddledan | oracle are out of time | 17:24 |
| diddledan | do they have a buzzer to tell them when to put their pens down? | 17:25 |
| diddledan | that's it till Monday when they'll do the closing arguments | 17:43 |
| Switches | Yep, Oracle are just sitting rubbing their hands now lol | 17:47 |
| brmbrmcar | do it | 18:43 |
