| diddledan | daftykins: that rick astley + nirvana is awesome | 13:14 |
| diddledan | from yesterday | 13:14 |
| knightwise | hey foobarry | 15:17 |
| knightwise | hows it hangin | 15:17 |
| CoolKevin | wow this latest version is seriously bad | 17:14 |
| CoolKevin | hardly anything works | 17:15 |
| Switches | Hmm had very few problems with it myself on any of my machines. Everything bar AMD is no problem (AMD isn't 16.04s fault though) | 17:19 |
| CoolKevin | I cannot get any flash player to work | 17:21 |
| CoolKevin | that is only 1 problem, I do not have the typing skills to list them all | 17:22 |
| Switches | Well for the Flash stuff I know "sudo apt install flashplugin-installer" works from terminal as I'm watching youtube with it at the mo | 17:23 |
| CoolKevin | ok thank you I will try that | 17:23 |
| Switches | For chromium it should should be erm "sudo apt install pepperflashplugin-nonfree" | 17:24 |
| daftykins | diddledan: :D sure is | 17:24 |
| Switches | If for some reason the installer one doesn't work try "sudo apt install flashplugin-nonfree" they are both the same but one may throw an error as the meta package changed | 17:25 |
| CoolKevin | I do not have a terminal box | 17:27 |
| daftykins | are you talking about ubuntu with unity? | 17:31 |
| daftykins | so normal ubuntu - or another flavour? | 17:31 |
| CoolKevin | normal ubuntu 16.04, that came with Linux Format magazine | 17:32 |
| CoolKevin | got the terminal box nowq | 17:33 |
| daftykins | so ctrl+alt+t should open a terminal emulator as normal, nothing different to usual | 17:33 |
| CoolKevin | now* | 17:33 |
| CoolKevin | I just had to dl it | 17:33 |
| daftykins | no, you never need to download it. | 17:33 |
| CoolKevin | I just did | 17:33 |
| CoolKevin | easier that way | 17:34 |
| daftykins | no, it's part of the stock install and *right there* so i think you're doing something very wrong. | 17:34 |
| CoolKevin | very possible, but if things was not changed so much | 17:35 |
| CoolKevin | I might have found it straightaway | 17:36 |
| daftykins | clicking dask and typing "term", mmm | 17:37 |
| CoolKevin | thank you guys that link you gave me worked sudo apt install pepperflashplugin-nonfree | 17:37 |
| CoolKevin | I never typed before | 17:37 |
| CoolKevin | all I done was click on menu and scroll down | 17:38 |
| Switches | Well aslong as you got it sorted, that's what matters :) | 17:40 |
| CoolKevin | yes thank you kind sir | 17:41 |
| Switches | No worries anytime | 17:41 |
| CoolKevin | still a lot more to sort though | 17:41 |
| CoolKevin | this version of xchat sucks | 17:41 |
| daftykins | hexchat is newer. | 17:42 |
| Switches | Don't use Xchat tbh, always use Smuxi or Polaris | 17:42 |
| CoolKevin | the notifications is really poor | 17:42 |
| Switches | or is it polari.. | 17:42 |
| CoolKevin | I think I saw polari | 17:42 |
| daftykins | graphics chips on the brain :) | 17:42 |
| Switches | Always :p | 17:42 |
| CoolKevin | I got hexchat now, at the moment I am a guest | 17:48 |
| SuperEngineer | [at the moment I am a ghost] | 18:25 |
| daftykins | :o | 18:25 |
| Switches | Good to know.. | 18:25 |
| daftykins | made any phone progress SuperEngineer? :> | 18:25 |
| SuperEngineer | hmmm... just when I get all nicely decided, I get all horribly UNdecided again [a.k.a. "No"] ;-) | 18:26 |
| SuperEngineer | ...but if some nice person / shop / company sent me a phone to "try"..... | 18:27 |
| daftykins | you can have this HTC One X+ 64GB for £50 :P | 18:29 |
| SuperEngineer | I'm sure you to sat say £30 | 18:35 |
| SuperEngineer | Say £30 ;-p | 18:36 |
| daftykins | naah | 18:39 |
| penguin42 | SuperEngineer: What are your criteria? | 18:42 |
| SuperEngineer | My criteria are: fits in pocket, is strong, has 8GB memory + SD card slot, and can crap on Google ;-) | 18:44 |
| SuperEngineer | ...oh, if only! | 18:44 |
| penguin42 | SuperEngineer: I suggest you go into a bunch of phone shops and test the 'is strong' aspect and buy which ever one survives | 18:44 |
| diddledan | penguin42: won't the shops mind a trail of broken handsets? | 18:46 |
| SuperEngineer | tried that... still can't appear in some towns due to minor "police objections" [something to do with accidental damage to phones", apparently] ;-) | 18:46 |
| penguin42 | diddledan: I don't know, but it would be good to watch SuperEngineer find out | 18:46 |
| SuperEngineer | [next time I'll post vids ;-D | 18:46 |
| daftykins | they tend to all be chained to stands though | 18:47 |
| SuperEngineer | but my backside is not | 18:47 |
| penguin42 | reminds me of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fikfhYznqhw | 18:47 |
| SuperEngineer | that's not me!!! I will keep denying that was me as long as the lawers ask me to | 18:49 |
| SuperEngineer | *lawyers | 18:49 |
| daftykins | that is very cringe | 18:52 |
| daftykins | wow 5 cops! | 18:53 |
| daftykins | that's one busy high-street :P | 18:53 |
| penguin42 | Market street is one of the main shopping streets here | 18:54 |
| daftykins | bit shocking nobody sorts the idiot out | 18:55 |
| penguin42 | shrug; he wasn't hurting any one, and it was a phone shop.... | 18:57 |
| daftykins | wasting fire extinguishers could hurt :) | 18:57 |
| diddledan | Better not to intervene while he's only interested in criminal damage rather than hurting people. | 19:00 |
| diddledan | When someone is confronted by an untrained bystander things can get dangerous | 19:00 |
| SuperEngineer | Wimps! That's not dangerous. Danger = someone driving aone of those cars with 4 circles on the bonnet or with a 3 coloured circle on the bonnet ;-) | 19:06 |
| * Switches Thinks SuperEngineer has been playing to much Carmageddon | 19:07 | |
| SuperEngineer | [may have been.........] | 19:07 |
| Switches | Ok I guess I won't try Gnome 3.20 just yet.. | 20:35 |
| zmoylan-pi | and there's no such thing as too much carmageddon | 21:05 |
| Switches | rofl | 21:06 |
| diddledan | What shall we do with the something something, what shall we do with the something something, what shall we do with the something something something something morning | 21:36 |
| zmoylan-pi | too late to deal with it now... | 21:36 |
| daftykins | Switches: ooh nice! AMD press event may 31st | 21:51 |
| Switches | :o | 21:52 |
| zmoylan-pi | they're pulling out of the cpu market and going to move to making toasters... :-P | 21:52 |
| Switches | Aint seen that yet, just listening to Linux unplugged totally mess up exactly what the ZFS in Ubuntu is about ... Why do people still think its Oracles ZFS? | 21:53 |
| daftykins | i see some UK sites have listings now too | 21:54 |
| daftykins | http://www.ebuyer.com/store/Components/cat/Graphics-Cards-Nvidia/subcat/NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-1080 | 21:54 |
| * Switches Runs off to check | 21:54 | |
| daftykins | £528 down here in rock land | 21:54 |
| Switches | ouch £633.. | 21:55 |
| daftykins | for the Flawed Edition :) | 21:55 |
| Switches | yeah | 21:55 |
| daftykins | i've decided it's badly made given the power inputs being castrated | 21:55 |
| Switches | lol yeah a lot are saying thats holding back the OC'ing | 21:56 |
| Switches | Seen a few say they hope the custom boards add a six or eight pin extra | 21:56 |
| diddledan | Flawed edition? | 21:57 |
| penguin42 | Switches: To answer your previous question; because it's still the code written by Oracle | 21:57 |
| Switches | Its Founders Edition, but its Flawed | 21:57 |
| daftykins | *nod* AIBs should fix it | 21:57 |
| Switches | Erm penguin42 it isn't the version they use is version 28 which was written by Sun before Oracles purchase | 21:57 |
| penguin42 | Switches: That's splitting hairs; Oracle bought Sun->Hence it's Oracle's | 21:58 |
| penguin42 | Switches: and they bought them ages ago as well, so fine if you want to call it Sun's zfs I won't argue | 21:58 |
| diddledan | It doesn't really matter though. It's the license that's in dispute | 21:59 |
| diddledan | Sun or Oracle, it's still CDDL | 22:00 |
| Switches | True | 22:03 |
| Switches | Hmm seems they got some more stuff going on aswell http://www.amd.com/en-us/press-releases/Pages/computex-2016-2016may19.aspx | 22:06 |
| Switches | 7th generation APU and Polaris | 22:06 |
| Switches | Should be an interesting Computex | 22:09 |
| diddledan | Isn't it computer that Sandra's Bullocks fixes the praetorians mess? | 22:10 |
| diddledan | Computex ** | 22:10 |
| daftykins | i thought she was more known for breaking things? | 22:11 |
| Switches | Yeah it is | 22:11 |
| Switches | Its in Taiwan, a few of the tech shows I watch are going | 22:12 |
| Switches | Seems a lot are saying AMD will announce and show Bristol Ridge there | 22:13 |
| Switches | Which actually ties in with what daftykins was saying as its the 30th it starts I think.. | 22:14 |
| zmoylan-pi | what would be the most exciting? amd making a portable chip? a new desktop processor? graphics cpu? | 22:15 |
| * Switches rubs hands | 22:15 | |
| Switches | Well tbh if they are announcing both a new APU and Bristol Ridge that will be exciting, Although the graphics is more what I'm looking forward to | 22:16 |
| diddledan | None of the above. Most exciting would be making all their products available for free :-p | 22:17 |
| Switches | lol | 22:17 |
| zmoylan-pi | that's easy, you get your friends and family to buy them and run windows and in 6 months when it's an infected mess then you take it off their hands while they buy new stuff :-P | 22:18 |
| Switches | Got about the same chance of that as Intel releasing an "enthusiast" chip at a reasonable price :p | 22:18 |
| daftykins | :D | 22:19 |
| penguin42 | haswell-e was OK wasn't it? | 22:20 |
| Switches | Haswell-E was fine, they got the newer Broadwell-E coming out the around £1500 i7-6950X >.< | 22:20 |
| daftykins | broadwell using a 6 as the first digit? | 22:21 |
| Switches | Tbh Sandy Bridge is still fine, let alone Haswell | 22:21 |
| penguin42 | ouch 1500 is a bit much! | 22:21 |
| Switches | Yeah, don't understand that but hey | 22:21 |
| Switches | maybe they didn't want to be confused with a certain graphics chip xD | 22:22 |
| Switches | Intels HD7950X rofl | 22:22 |
| Switches | I did read somewhere though that the new Broadwells also have Iris Pro, rather than the Intel HD graphics | 22:24 |
| daftykins | makes sense | 22:25 |
| Switches | Yeah, they had them already on Ebay or something.. someone selling the Intel Confidential chips.. | 22:31 |
| Switches | http://www.ebay.com/itm/Intel-i7-6950X-LGA2011-3-8C-16T-3GHz-25MB-L3-140W-for-X99-chipset-/111980028756?hash=item1a1287a354:g:1EoAAOSw-tNXH4eu | 22:31 |
| Switches | Almost $2000 | 22:31 |
| daftykins | lul | 22:32 |
| daftykins | 140W >_< | 22:32 |
| Switches | Yeah | 22:32 |
| directhex | at least i already have x99! | 22:32 |
| Switches | I thought we were meant to be getting more power effiecient, guess not :p | 22:33 |
| zmoylan-pi | well you won't be able to afford acutal heating after buying this so it will help with the cold :-) | 22:33 |
| Switches | Rofl, thats so true | 22:33 |
| zmoylan-pi | version 2 will have a grill so you can make toast... :-P | 22:33 |
| Switches | hehe | 22:34 |
| directhex | there we go, H.D firmware release supports broadwell-e | 22:34 |
| Switches | Or an inbuilt George Foremans | 22:34 |
| Switches | I'll stick to my Xeons for now | 22:34 |
| penguin42 | which xeons ? | 22:35 |
| directhex | i can just throw my haswell-e in the bin | 22:35 |
| * penguin42 takes directhex's bin | 22:35 | |
| Switches | Got 5 here, really old dual server thats socket 771, dual E5620 and a E3-1270v2 | 22:36 |
| Switches | Still trying to source a new board for the E5620s, but spent to much this month so prob be able to get one next month | 22:39 |
| * Switches needs to stop putting lighter next to usb stick.. | 22:46 | |
| Switches | Amount of times I've tried to light a ciggy with a usb stick is beyond belief today.. | 22:49 |
| penguin42 | usb sticks generally are safer | 22:53 |
| Switches | this is what I need http://coolmaterial.com/tech/usb-8gb-flash-drive-lighter/ | 22:54 |
| diddledan | Switches: at least you haven't lit your computer yet | 23:04 |
| Switches | True | 23:04 |
| zmoylan-pi | obviously not cool enough for kevin... :-) | 23:12 |
| Switches | He was having some problems earlier, guess he didn't fix all of them | 23:14 |
| daftykins | still a bit puzzled as to how someone can't find the stock terminal | 23:17 |
| zmoylan-pi | the terminal scare people | 23:17 |
| Switches | Well bit hard to miss in Ubuntu yeah.. but still as zmoylan-pi said, scares some people | 23:19 |
| daftykins | well that one said they downloaded another | 23:19 |
| Switches | Thought he was on about the chat client? | 23:19 |
| Switches | Tbh was tabbing a bit once he said the pepperflash was working for him | 23:20 |
| Switches | Ohh Fermi cards finally got OpenGL 4.2.. | 23:24 |
| Switches | Only three generations for the Nouveau to catch up on now >.< | 23:25 |
| Switches | Really wish Nvidia would give those guys a hand, rather than put up more blocks for them.. damn signed firmware >.< | 23:26 |
| daftykins | BFG! :P https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1fZg0hhBX8 | 23:27 |
| Switches | rofl | 23:28 |
| Switches | Remember reading the book to my daughter when she was small.. | 23:28 |
| daftykins | :) | 23:29 |
