| diddledan | magnum icecream ftw | 00:54 |
|---|---|---|
| daftykins | :D | 00:58 |
| daftykins | have they shrunk yet? | 00:58 |
| diddledan | I wouldn't know | 00:59 |
| daftykins | hehe | 01:01 |
| daftykins | i just murdered my last M&S chocolate eclair | 01:01 |
| diddledan | \o/ | 01:02 |
| diddledan | lurve those things | 01:02 |
| daftykins | diddledan: what excitement awaits you this week? | 01:02 |
| diddledan | erm.. moar gentoo | 01:02 |
| daftykins | woohoo! | 01:02 |
| daftykins | you're cunningly dragging that one out ;) | 01:02 |
| diddledan | lol | 01:03 |
| diddledan | yeah .. keeps the money rolling for a bit | 01:03 |
| diddledan | even as streamlined as I've got it now it still takes several hours to do all the systems | 01:04 |
| diddledan | before I started on them they were unmaintainable - unable to install anything due to the outdated nature of their software stack being beyond the point-of-no-return | 01:05 |
| daftykins | *nod* are they all old physical boxen, too? | 01:06 |
| diddledan | yeah | 01:06 |
| diddledan | or rather these are just the VMs left - the 8 physical servers have been upgraded to ubuntu | 01:06 |
| diddledan | the vms were shuffled around on top of those physical servers to get them all buntified | 01:07 |
| daftykins | *nod* | 01:09 |
| daftykins | was gonna say, surely you'd just build new then move everything left on the old hosts | 01:09 |
| mappps | hi | 05:04 |

| davmor2 | zmoylan-pi: waste of Tea day I think you'll find we call it | 09:24 |
| zmoylan-pi | but cheap inferior tea sent to americans... not proper tea... :-) | 09:24 |
| davmor2 | zmoylan-pi: shhhh don't tell them that we were charging them top whack | 09:25 |
| zmoylan-pi | mostly tax to keep king george in underpants | 09:26 |
| davmor2 | zmoylan-pi: nothing new there then | 09:27 |

| diddledan | apple and spotify are having a fistycuff fight: http://www.macrumors.com/2016/07/01/apple-spotify-app-rejection-half-truths-rumors/ | 13:53 |
| zmoylan-pi | more a hissy fit. spotify is playing in apples garden and doesn't like the rules v apple now competes directly with spotify so can strangle them when they want | 13:55 |
| zmoylan-pi | at some point government/courts will have to make a decision | 14:01 |
| diddledan | aye. if it gets that far. | 14:02 |
| zmoylan-pi | apple taking a cut of every transaction on their platform does seem a little much | 14:02 |
| diddledan | oops: https://twitter.com/bdsams/status/749967172382916608 | 14:07 |
| zmoylan-pi | 1 down, a few million to go... :-P | 14:08 |
| zmoylan-pi | mind i do have a bad history with watches getting broken | 14:09 |
| zmoylan-pi | my nuband has lasted 2 months now so i'm a little proud of that... :) | 14:11 |
| Myrtti | I scratched my Moto360 last week getting stuff from the garage, grazed it against a brick wall. Not end of the world but annoying still :-( | 14:15 |
| zmoylan-pi | i wear long sleeves so at least it's behind at least one layer of protection | 14:15 |
| zmoylan-pi | i did see android watches for sale in a euro store for €20 last week. i'm morbidly curious as to how bad they are... :-) | 14:16 |
| Myrtti | cheap ones undoubtedly are bad | 14:17 |
| zmoylan-pi | then again i saw my first digital watch when i was in school around 1980 when a rich kid got one and 2-3 years later they were for sale for ir£5 everywhere | 14:18 |
| Myrtti | I love mine. It's a great piece of kit. | 14:20 |
| zmoylan-pi | if it broke completely would you rush to replace it? | 14:22 |
| zmoylan-pi | it's kinda the ultimate test. | 14:22 |
| Myrtti | quite possibly | 14:22 |
| Myrtti | I'd say about 80% probability | 14:23 |
| zmoylan-pi | it's a high number but it isn't 100%... :-) | 14:23 |
| Myrtti | there's lots of stuff going in my life at the moment, and it's a lot of money to consider at this point when things are still shifting | 14:24 |
| zmoylan-pi | true, but it's the level of sacrifice that we would put towards replacing, repairing something that describes our commitment to it i think | 14:25 |
| Myrtti | well. | 14:25 |
| Myrtti | we're slow movers, it's over a month since dsample cracked the screen on his Nexus 5 | 14:25 |
| Myrtti | wow, Chris Evans stepping down from Top Gear. | 14:26 |
| diddledan | wow | 14:27 |
| davmor2 | that doesn't surprise me | 14:28 |
| zmoylan-pi | might be the police investigation more than the ratings | 14:28 |
| diddledan | I guess the rumors of trouble were right then | 14:28 |
| diddledan | Police investigation? | 14:28 |
| zmoylan-pi | http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/07/04/chris-evans-to-leave-top-gear-after-police-launch-sexual-assault/ | 14:28 |
| diddledan | oh dear | 14:28 |
| davmor2 | http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/tv/news/top-gear-matt-leblanc-vows-to-quit-unless-chris-evans-is-sacked-rory-reid-eddie-jordan-labour-crisis-a7105186.html | 14:30 |
| davmor2 | and that too | 14:30 |
| diddledan | gotta love that the media is full with sexual assault stories right now | 14:32 |
| Myrtti | I was just looking at Facebook memories few moments ago | 14:34 |
| davmor2 | diddledan: it's to take the edge of the politics | 14:34 |
| Myrtti | year ago I was waiting for Rolf Harris sentencing to happen | 14:34 |
| diddledan | with regards to sexual assult, I think of this: https://youtu.be/ccw_lcEb0Mc?t=156 | 14:35 |
| diddledan | the line is very blurry between innuendo, harrassment, and assult | 14:37 |
| diddledan | different people have different tolerences for innuendo where one person finds it fun another will consider it bordering on harrassment | 14:37 |
| diddledan | of course then you get the bumholes who go full assault who we all must despise universally | 14:38 |
| diddledan | it’s unfortunately very difficult to prove harrassment :-( | 14:39 |
| diddledan | in other news, kitties are cute: https://twitter.com/emrgencykittens/status/749977434880110592 | 14:47 |

| daftykins | diddledan: ah har, the cheese defense | 15:43 |
| diddledan | :-) | 15:43 |
| daftykins | apparently the chap i did an iPad digitiser swap for is saying it's misbehaving a lot, perhaps the parts are too cheap after all! bit of a pain though | 15:45 |
| zmoylan-pi | or apple checks for replaced non standard hardware and acts the goat to /encourage/ expensive trips to their repair locations /paranoia <_< | 15:46 |
| zmoylan-pi | wasn't there an update a while back that bricked a few phones that had fingerprint sensor repaired? | 15:47 |
| daftykins | well that was sensationalised by the 'press' as always, anyone dumb enough to do a screen swap and not transfer the original home button (sensor) was going to get burnt | 15:50 |
| daftykins | it stands to reason for security purposes that such a sensor would be tied to the mainboard via serial number or so | 15:51 |
| daftykins | i think i just got too cheap parts really, the digitiser i got was £20... there's one for £27 claiming to be 'original' on ebay there | 15:51 |
| daftykins | most are now saying £12 XD http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=ipad+air+black+digitiser&_sacat=0 | 15:52 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | 17:20 | |
| diddledan | I was thinking exactly the same thing | 17:23 |
| daftykins | another annoying habit :P | 17:23 |
| diddledan | what, thinking? | 17:24 |
| daftykins | nah the blank intros | 17:24 |
| diddledan | aah | 17:24 |
| diddledan | yeah | 17:24 |
| daftykins | yay for Q2 end, invoice o'clock is here | 17:38 |
| DJones | daftykins: You spend to long on irc to be working, so can't see how you can ivoice anybody :) | 17:46 |
| daftykins | skillful multi-tasking, sir | 17:47 |
| popey | I don't think any of us can throw that around :) | 17:47 |
| daftykins | XD | 17:47 |
| DJones | popey: daftykins: :) | 17:48 |
| daftykins | and to think of all those from #ubuntu in need of help that starve now i'm no longer around ;) | 17:48 |
| foobarry | if you have amazon prime, can you buy an add-on item by itself and get free postage? | 19:05 |
| Myrtti | no, you need to still buy the 20quid worth of stuf | 19:14 |
| foobarry | i thought prime allowed shipping with any amount of £ | 20:01 |
| foobarry | :( | 20:01 |
| foobarry | so thats why 25 pack of cdr addon is less than half price of the 50 pack | 20:04 |
| Myrtti | "As long as the minimum order threshold of £20 of qualifying items is met, Amazon Prime members enjoy their regular delivery benefits on Add-on Items. " | 20:46 |
| diddledan | add-on items are so-called and under special rules because of the cost of picking, not the cost of postage | 20:52 |
| Myrtti | yeah. I got a box of tea today as an addon | 20:56 |
| zmoylan-pi | tea... not from a proper tea shop... is that allowed in britain?! :-) | 20:57 |
| Myrtti | special non-caffeine organic herbal blend | 21:02 |
| Myrtti | tisane, I suppose | 21:02 |
| === james is now known as Guest86203 | ||
| daftykins | as handy as it is, i think there's a certain responsibility to not be getting all the kinds of items that the packing will build up from | 21:44 |
| daftykins | bit horrified seeing a client buy batteries off amazon the other day, given they have a corner ship 2 door down | 21:44 |
| daftykins | *doors | 21:44 |
| zmoylan-pi | but corner shop would charge more | 21:57 |
| daftykins | nah | 21:58 |
| daftykins | maybe in tax land | 21:58 |
| diddledan | just been shown this (not safe for kids who havne’t learned swearing yet) https://www.foaas.com | 22:09 |
| daftykins | heh my dad still uses a mildly educated phone, but he has some pictures my mum wants to post on facebook (groan) - she asked if he could MMS them to me, then me email them to her... | 22:17 |
| daftykins | i pointed out the quality of them isn't even worth it XD | 22:17 |
| diddledan | why can’t he just mms them direct to your mum? | 22:18 |
| diddledan | even so you’re right the quality will be shocking | 22:18 |
| daftykins | diddledan: well when he sends them to me i get a text from my telco with a site link and passwords to retrieve them, maybe her device is misconfigured | 22:28 |
| daftykins | don't honestly know | 22:28 |
| daftykins | MMS is a tech that we can al move on without though :D | 22:29 |
| Myrtti | daftykins: I've taken into the habit of doing a wish list in Amazon, taking all non-consumables on it and do a search on eBay, and buy from there instead | 22:31 |
| daftykins | wouldn't that be even more likelihood of individual shipments packaged? | 22:32 |
| Myrtti | even made a spreadsheet on what maximum bids are still sustainable in comparison to eBay | 22:32 |
| Myrtti | daftykins: I buy only used, not new | 22:32 |
| Myrtti | so it's already preloved and at least the manufacturing process doesn't add to the carbon footprint | 22:33 |
| daftykins | i was more thinking the shipping packaging etc | 22:33 |
| Myrtti | maybe, a lot of the sellers use recycled boxes tho | 22:34 |
| zmoylan-pi | even my dumbphone can send pics via email | 22:35 |
| zmoylan-pi | though i usually send them via bt to a tablet or laptop | 22:36 |
| zmoylan-pi | i think i have a ftp client on it somewhere too... | 22:37 |
| daftykins | ;) | 22:39 |
| daftykins | think my dad is quite happy to be away from the computers once he leaves the office nowadays | 22:39 |
| directhex | doesn't MMS cost like ten million quid per message?> | 22:51 |
| daftykins | might as well | 22:51 |
| zmoylan-pi | i think i received about 3 mms in all the time i've had a mobile phone, 1 when my brother sent a pic of his 2nd son, 1 when a norwegian mate had his first kid and 1 of a traffic jam last year. | 22:59 |
| daftykins | XD | 23:05 |
| daftykins | bet the last was great | 23:05 |
| zmoylan-pi | it was from a mate who is always late explaining that for once her lateness was someone elses fault :-) | 23:21 |
