| JamesTait | Good morning all! Happy Friday, and happy Don’t Fry Day! 😃 ☼ | 08:52 |
| knightwise | morning peeps | 08:57 |
| SuperMatt | why would we not do any frying? | 09:15 |
| knightwise | Frying is never bad | 09:31 |
| brobostigon | especially fried potatoes, :) | 09:32 |
| SuperMatt | I would love a bacon sandwich today | 09:32 |
| * knightwise drops the sandwich | 09:32 | |
| brobostigon | yes please, too. | 09:33 |
| * zmoylan-pi fires up 1980s fact of the day app in dosbox... 'bismark hit by torpedo' | 09:41 | |
| knightwise | whooo | 09:45 |
| knightwise | that was a intense one | 09:45 |
| foobarry | belgrano? | 09:46 |
| foobarry | or it's just telling you thats how the bismarck as sunk in WWii? | 09:47 |
| zmoylan-pi | and weirdly the attack succeeded as the planes used were so obsolete the guns predictors on the bismark found it hard to track them | 09:47 |
| foobarry | fairey swordfish? | 09:47 |
| zmoylan-pi | stringbags | 09:48 |
| foobarry | and they were verstaile and could be carried on aircraft carriers | 09:48 |
| zmoylan-pi | they outlasted 2 planes meant to replace iirc | 09:48 |
| zmoylan-pi | *replace them | 09:49 |
| foobarry | are you just reading wikiepdia? | 09:50 |
| zmoylan-pi | when my health was at it's worst i may have read the internet once or twice... :-P | 09:50 |
| foobarry | i made a 1/32 tiger moth with rigging | 09:50 |

| TwistedLucidity | foobarry: That's pretty neat. Every time I've tried something like that it ends up looking like a perfect replica. | 10:10 |
| TwistedLucidity | Post crash. :-( | 10:10 |
| foobarry | heh | 10:10 |
| foobarry | trying to get to tab-zero | 10:13 |
| foobarry | close about 10 tabs a day | 10:14 |
| foobarry | still got over 50 | 10:14 |
| TwistedLucidity | And Moz killed tab groups :-( | 10:15 |
| zmoylan-pi | i use a lot of rss and 10-15 tabs | 10:15 |

| anes_ | Hi friends , i try preseed using pinguy , but not working | 11:16 |
| anes_ | my preseed is : http://pastie.org/10854841 | 11:16 |
| anes_ | custom.seed file | 11:16 |
| anes_ | any body pls help | 11:17 |
| anes_ | no body hAVE IDEA? | 11:23 |
| davmor2 | anes_: only thing I can do is point you at the official preseed doc for ubuntu but that is easy to find with a quick google | 11:37 |
| davmor2 | anes_: but I don't think that will help much, you might want to ask on #ubuntu as there are more people there and someone might of use the software and preseed | 11:38 |
| zmoylan-pi | https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/4l7kjd/found_a_text_file_at_work_titled_why_should_i/ | 13:24 |
| davmor2 | \o/ I can use the t'interwebz again | 14:30 |
| davmor2 | man I forgot what this kinda slow was like | 14:30 |
| SuperMatt | hoorah! | 14:30 |
| davmor2 | has 128kbs connection till I repositioned the areals on the router now I'm up to a balmy 2mbs | 14:31 |
| SuperMatt | 128kbps? that was a pipe dream for me in the 90s | 14:31 |
| SuperMatt | christ, I want this long weekend to start already | 14:45 |
| TwistedLucidity | davmor2: I am only getting 30Mbps from a supposed 300Mbps link - is there some secret sauce guide to aerial-fu? | 14:45 |
| SuperMatt | HURRY UP | 14:45 |
| davmor2 | TwistedLucidity: if you get a faster connection by the router then the likelihood you need to direct the aerials in the general direction of where you pc is, so the router here is up stairs the aerials where upright, this basically meant that very little of the signal was being bounced downstairs | 14:48 |
| TwistedLucidity | Hmm...I was in the lounge within 2m of the router. | 14:48 |
| davmor2 | TwistedLucidity: so by putting them at a 45° angle and turning the router in the direction of the laptop I got a much better signal | 14:49 |
| davmor2 | TwistedLucidity: went from 8-12% to 52% | 14:49 |
| TwistedLucidity | I'm seeing ~75% signal | 14:49 |
| TwistedLucidity | I'm clearly too stupid for this kind of thing. | 14:49 |
| DJones | SuperMatt: Having 7 day long weekends isn't the paradise you want, they're really boring | 14:50 |
| SuperMatt | DJones: I've been on my notice period for the last three weeks. I've done no work. Coming in to the office to do no work is *worse* than staying at home | 14:51 |
| DJones | SuperMatt: Being at home on long term sickness/benefits isn't any fun | 14:51 |
| SuperMatt | ah, yes I can imagine so | 14:52 |
| SuperMatt | I'm trying to convince the fiancee that when she officially finished uni that she doesn't want to be a stay at home wife, because she will get bored | 14:52 |
| SuperMatt | Any money she earns will be completely disposable income, because I'm already paying the mortgage, bills, food, etc | 14:53 |
| SuperMatt | we could save quickly for a holiday | 14:53 |
| Seeker` | good luck with that | 14:53 |
| SuperMatt | the convincing or the saving? | 14:54 |
| foobarry | SuperMatt: i have colleagues who have done no work in 15 years | 14:54 |
| Seeker` | my wife graduated at the same time as me (8 years ago). She currently picks online orders for a local supermarket. Can't convince her to do anything more | 14:54 |
| DJones | SuperMatt: Wife.... Shoes & Handbags///// | 14:54 |
| TwistedLucidity | Heh, looking for infor on my router I wonder of Bufallo are guilty of false advertising. It's meant to be 300Mbps, but not test has got faster than 70Mbps.... | 14:54 |
| SuperMatt | Seeker`: if it brings in even a little money, I'd be ok with the mrs doing that kind of thing | 14:55 |
| DJones | SuperMatt: s/Wife/whife or Fiance/ | 14:55 |
| SuperMatt | she's probably going to graduate with a first, so she shouldn't have too much trouble getting a good job | 14:55 |
| TwistedLucidity | Yeah, I think I'll stop banging my head against a brick wall - the unit can't push the data Buffalo claim. Why claim "300Mbps" when it can barely top 70Mbps? | 14:57 |
| SuperMatt | anyway, I think I'm going to bugger off early because the boss isn't here | 14:58 |
| SuperMatt | ciao | 14:58 |
| davmor2 | TwistedLucidity: run speedof.me :) | 14:58 |
| davmor2 | TwistedLucidity: also stop all the torrenting and you'll have interwebz again too :D | 14:59 |
| TwistedLucidity | davmor2: As I'm wired right now, it won't tell me much. | 15:00 |
| TwistedLucidity | speedof.me claim 35Mbps, fast.com says 160Mbps. How queer. | 15:01 |
| akxwi-dave | davmor2, Powerline adaptors are your friend.. | 15:03 |
| TwistedLucidity | Not if you are a radio ham | 15:04 |
| akxwi-dave | thats very true.. but i bet sooner or later it may be.. :-) | 15:05 |
| daftykins | diddledan: heh yeah i slept far before midnight :P | 15:06 |
| davmor2 | TwistedLucidity: and what about speedtest.com | 15:07 |
| TwistedLucidity | Err...a free dating site? | 15:08 |
| TwistedLucidity | .net | 15:09 |
| TwistedLucidity | ~160 down. THat's about right | 15:09 |
| davmor2 | TwistedLucidity: yeap .net | 15:10 |
| foobarry | arrgggh | 15:48 |
| foobarry | tried debugging a blurry graph issue and it turns out the firefox page have been ctrl-+ zoomed | 15:48 |
| popey | heheh | 15:53 |
| TwistedLucidity | Some plonker near me is running their WiFi onc channel 5. I bet they think they're clever | 16:05 |
| popey | i flashed replacement firmware on mine to move it up to ch 13 | 16:10 |
| * popey hugs MartijnVdS | 16:10 | |
| TwistedLucidity | Won't 13 overlap 11? Also, isn't 13 on for Japan (or USA)? | 16:11 |
| TwistedLucidity | Ah, no. I have 13. Maybe it's 14 or somehting | 16:12 |

| foobarry | knew i should have bought 2 pairs of same trainer. they don't sell that model anymore :( | 18:50 |
| foobarry | my favourite soe | 18:51 |
| foobarry | karrimor don't seem to do many with vibram sole any more | 18:53 |
| penguin42 | foobarry: I found most of my karrimor's at sports direct and it was pretty random | 19:10 |
| foobarry | gonna go back and have a look tomorrow | 20:01 |
| foobarry | the cheap ones have nasty flat sole, but the mid range have nicer shape and support | 20:01 |
| penguin42 | but I always tended to pick the cheapest that didn't look insane - well, the cheapest | 20:01 |
| foobarry | i've had both | 20:02 |
| daftykins | any of you folks keep any old kit around? i need a pretty specific size of graphics card fan (just the fan) | 20:02 |
| penguin42 | my current pair have a very thin sole - you can feel each rock | 20:02 |
| foobarry | even as a cheapskate i recommend the vibram or dynagrip sole | 20:02 |
| zmoylan-pi | the last video card i found was so old it hadn't even got a heat sink... :-P | 20:03 |
| daftykins | ;] | 20:03 |
| daftykins | http://i1017.photobucket.com/albums/af297/oldbanian/vfan054-2.jpg~original | 20:03 |
| foobarry | worth asking | 20:03 |
| daftykins | whoever came up with this design needs to be shot | 20:03 |
| zmoylan-pi | wow that's ugly | 20:04 |
| daftykins | the heatsink uses a non-standard mount approach too, so i can't just swap the lot | 20:05 |
| zmoylan-pi | i did have one cpu fan that got killed and had no replacement for. i ended up using a completely different fan that took creative screwing to fit the heatsink it sat on | 20:44 |
| daftykins | :> | 20:50 |
| daftykins | just now i used twist ties to mount a 120mm fan to an expansion slot blanking plate, slips in nicely :> | 20:50 |
| zmoylan-pi | great minds... :-) | 20:51 |
| daftykins | i used to do that a lot though, add a fan by screwing into a Pentium III's heatsink for example | 20:51 |
| daftykins | i had a 600MHz beaut that ran at 800 | 20:52 |
| penguin42 | the SPEEEEEED | 20:52 |
| daftykins | :D | 20:52 |

| zmoylan-pi | touchdown | 21:48 |
| Seeker` | it's almost as if they're getting good at this | 21:49 |
| penguin42 | have they reused any of the stage1's yet for actual launches? | 21:50 |
| zmoylan-pi | not yet aiui | 21:50 |
| zmoylan-pi | i think the first one is going in a museum | 21:50 |
| Seeker` | I think they're planning that for later in the year | 21:52 |
