JamesTait | Good morning all! Happy Wednesday, and happy Chocolate Eclair Day! 😃 | 08:39 |
brobostigon | morning boys and girls. | 08:56 |
TwistedLucidity | JamesTait: I'm on a diet you insensitive clod! | 08:59 |
JamesTait | TwistedLucidity, I'll have yours then. 😃 | 08:59 |
ujjain | I spoke to a girl and she said something about rebirth called constellations ... any idea what that is? | 09:09 |
foobarry | ? | 09:18 |
popey | also. "wat?" | 09:19 |
popey | sounds like astrology | 09:19 |
foobarry | or http://store.steampowered.com/app/250900/ | 09:20 |
popey | binding of issac? | 09:20 |
popey | hah, yes. | 09:20 |
TwistedLucidity | Fund game. Utterly deranged. | 09:21 |
TwistedLucidity | "Fun" | 09:21 |
foobarry | actually think its some mumbo jumbo reincarnation theory | 09:23 |
TwistedLucidity | I've finsihed with reincarnation. I clearly perfect. :-P | 09:23 |
popey | oh look, yougov eu referendum survey o'clock | 09:24 |
foobarry | i don't understand. surely the undecided should vote for the status quo? | 09:25 |
foobarry | why are people swinging their decision based on emotional swing over the last few weeks rather than the years preceding it when they were happy in the EU | 09:26 |
foobarry | and barely thought about it tbh | 09:26 |

SuperMatt | morning all | 10:00 |
popey | yo | 10:03 |
Newman101 | morning | 10:05 |
BigRedS | Gooodd Morning! | 10:18 |
diplo | hah, just read a tweet "If Britain leaves the EU, do I no longer get these annoying cookie warnings on every website? This changes everything." | 10:44 |
TwistedLucidity | It always amuses me how there is no way to refuse the cookies | 10:47 |
diplo | Refusing = leaving site? | 10:47 |
TwistedLucidity | That's would be one option but as I understand it, it wasn't what the law intened. You were meant to be able to refuse and continue | 10:49 |
foobarry | i think that law got canned already anyway | 10:54 |
foobarry | or certainly reinterpreted | 10:54 |
diplo | They don't enforce it I think is more to the point | 10:55 |
foobarry | ah...that moment where you think you broke it all. then relaised it was somebody else | 10:55 |
diplo | I've had a afternoon / mornin glike that, thought I'd broke code | 10:55 |
foobarry | running a scary change saw some horrific messages | 10:55 |
diplo | Nope, missing php-gd package | 10:55 |

zmoylan-pi | and as i asked in a different channel why do no manufacturers offer a sliding cover or a hardware switch for cameras in laptops or for microphones too | 11:25 |
popey | because most people aren't paranoid? | 11:28 |
zmoylan-pi | i *knew* you were going to say that... :-) | 11:28 |
foobarry | lol youtube is down | 11:29 |
foobarry | 500 Internal Server Error | 11:29 |
foobarry | Sorry, something went wrong. | 11:29 |
foobarry | A team of highly trained monkeys has been dispatched to deal with this situation. | 11:29 |
zmoylan-pi | crikey, were will the dregs of the internet go to comment?? | 11:29 |
foobarry | still broked | 11:30 |
popey | it fixed for me after a refresh | 11:30 |
zmoylan-pi | someone needs to wiggle a few cables... | 11:30 |
foobarry | get a white csreen now | 11:30 |
foobarry | yesterday reddit, today youtube. somebody conspiring to make me do other things for lunch | 11:31 |
DJones | foobarry: Such as eating? | 11:31 |
BigRedS | yeah, I turned to ebay yesterday for lunchtime. That was expensive | 11:31 |
zmoylan-pi | break out the emergency 64gb usb drive of cat videos | 11:31 |
* zmoylan-pi wonders if there's a market for large outages were you can sell torches for stupid amounts on the street if there's now a window for usb drives filled with internet meme videos and pics... | 11:50 | |

daftykins | yay new nvidia 1070 card on the way \o/ | 13:52 |
zmoylan-pi | a warm winter ahead for daftykins :-) | 13:53 |
daftykins | haha, it's low power! | 13:54 |
Seeker` | saw four 1080s lined up in the office today | 13:57 |
daftykins | o0 what for? | 13:58 |
Myrtti | sweet, new Spotify client! | 14:02 |
tpe | Here I am sticking with a 750 Ti until I do a new system build... | 14:18 |
daftykins | that's not even vaguely sticking, i'm replacing a 560Ti from 2010/2011 :P | 14:19 |
daftykins | this 1070 will be a 6 fold improvement XD | 14:19 |
tpe | The 750 Ti was a forced replacement for a dead HD 4870. I'd probably still be on that if it hadn't fried itself. :) | 14:21 |
daftykins | hehe | 14:21 |
daftykins | i think that AMD is in legacy status now | 14:21 |
tpe | Has been for more than 5 years I think... I was relying on improvements to the r600g driver. | 14:22 |
daftykins | nah the fglrx driver would only drop given ranges here and there | 14:24 |
daftykins | at least that's my meaning for legacy | 14:24 |
diplo | I'm still using a 8800GTX, it struggles quite badly now | 14:28 |
daftykins | even my 560Ti does! 18fps on low in the new Hitman, @ 1920x1200 | 14:35 |
Seeker` | I'm sticking with my GTX970 for now | 14:39 |
daftykins | i almost got one of those a while back, were it not for the RAM controversy | 14:40 |
halt | Hi guys, I have an old Blackberry phone, and few ubuntu desktop/ laptop all around is there any way to sync that to ubuntu ? on the BB site I found only windows drivers and apps | 15:00 |
daftykins | with what kind of content? sync means a different thing to different people | 15:01 |
daftykins | really though given the company is a walking zombie they should be abandoned | 15:01 |
=== m0nkey__ is now known as m0nkey_ | ||
=== funkyHat_ is now known as funkyHat | ||
halt | I'm intrested about the contacts only, and not keep in sync just download | 15:15 |
SuperMatt | pen and paper might be quicker ;) | 15:17 |
halt | really it's that bad ? | 15:18 |
diplo | Last time I did something for a friend, I believe you can sync contacts with Google halt | 15:19 |
diplo | Twas the easiest way I found | 15:19 |
diplo | Has been a while though | 15:19 |
halt | so I need to register a google account login on both the phone and ubuntu and then expect the magic, well that's something | 15:20 |
SuperMatt | that sounds like the best way | 15:21 |
daftykins | halt: what are the contacts in right now? | 15:22 |
daftykins | yeah in fairness before my first smartphone arrived i sorted all my contacts out on my gmail account and when it arrived, i had just to add the account then BAM all imported and also, online - so never again would i have to hear of the woes of contacts "on SIM" or "on phone" | 15:23 |
halt | on that one phone and on few of my old laptop where I used to have windows | 15:24 |
daftykins | the source of the contacts is that blackberry? | 15:25 |
halt | I don't use neither phone or windows anymore | 15:26 |
halt | daftykins: it's few years of collection on that phone yes that's the source | 15:26 |
diplo | I expect you can export to csv on the blackberry? then bluetooth to a laptop ? | 15:26 |
daftykins | yep i'd just type 'em out :P | 15:27 |
halt | I might take it into the office and give it to one of the intern | 15:28 |
daftykins | that's the spirit! | 15:30 |
daftykins | circle of life complete :) | 15:30 |
halt | never mind I found an free bb app for export all contact in vCard format I saved it to sd card so now I just need to import it | 15:43 |
daftykins | you might have some fun with those :) | 15:48 |
* zmoylan-pi remembers the good old days transferring a lot of data between phone, palm and psions with good old vcards and infrared :-) | 18:07 | |
daftykins | :D | 18:13 |
popey | I wish palm os was still a thing | 18:13 |
daftykins | i remember asking a volunteer sixth-former in the library if i could install PsiWin on the library computers | 18:13 |
daftykins | \o/ | 18:13 |
marshmn | I loved Palm OS | 18:14 |
zmoylan-pi | the most convuluted complicated working application ever written in vb6 was psiwin... | 18:14 |
zmoylan-pi | if they made a palm still with graffitti 1, not 2 and had wifi or even just a bt bridge to a smartphone they'd still be selling. | 18:15 |
popey | Yeah, Palm was delightful | 18:15 |
marshmn | Graffiti was great! | 18:16 |
marshmn | I'd forgotten how good that felt | 18:16 |
zmoylan-pi | simcity on palmos... happy memories... | 18:16 |
marshmn | and I probably had more fun writing programs for Palm than any other programming I've ever done | 18:16 |
zmoylan-pi | avantgo for offline news... | 18:17 |
popey | beginning of the end of palm for me was when my Palm T|X wouldn't do any better than WEP for wifi security | 18:18 |
daftykins | that remained the case for the Nintendo DS :| very daft | 18:24 |
zmoylan-pi | some companies think the universe should revolve around their hardware | 18:25 |
marshmn | wow, just saw that Linode double the amount of RAM you get (for those who had 4GB or less) | 18:44 |
marshmn | nice. | 18:44 |
daftykins | i thought Linode always had very high prices | 18:46 |
=== Lcawte|Away is now known as Lcawte | ||
foobarry | can i transfer multiple ISAs into one ISA in one year? | 19:37 |
foobarry | hmm provided you only pay into one active ISA per year and you're not locked into a fixed account). | 19:38 |
marshmn | daftykins: I think they're pretty reasonable? I pay $20 for 4GB VPS now | 19:50 |
daftykins | $5 for a 1GB at DO i think | 19:51 |
daftykins | (digital ocean) | 19:51 |
marshmn | OK, so that's about the same? | 19:52 |
marshmn | actually, DO is $5 for 512MB by the looks of it | 19:53 |
daftykins | only if you multiply directly | 19:53 |
daftykins | ah my mistake | 19:53 |
marshmn | it looks like the DO prices are pretty much the same as what Linode were prior to the recent upgrade | 19:54 |
marshmn | so now Linode is half the price | 19:54 |
marshmn | but I'm not really trying to convince anyone to use Linode | 19:55 |
marshmn | I've used it for a couple of years and has been good for me | 19:55 |
marshmn | YMMV | 19:55 |
