daftykins | what kind of data o0 | 00:25 |
zmoylan-pi | nah, i was covered up today. i did leave front of my fleece almost unzipped. sweaty when i got home but i prefer to sweat than lie in bed at night trying not to touch bed with sunburnt skin | 00:25 |
zmoylan-pi | they provice internet via microwave links | 00:26 |
daftykins | ah | 00:27 |
zmoylan-pi | been irish if the moon shines too bright i get moonburn... | 00:27 |
daftykins | :D | 00:27 |
zmoylan-pi | lots of people were walking about shirtless who are now probably whimpering lying in bed now | 00:28 |
daftykins | mmm i don't go in for the lazy act of sunbathing | 00:31 |
daftykins | i just hung about indoors in shorts | 00:31 |
daftykins | just stepped outside, nice breeze and i can see the full moon! | 00:31 |

mapps | ughh | 05:44 |
mapps | hear how trains stopped in the uk.melted tracks | 05:44 |
mapps | O_o | 05:44 |
daftykins | yeah, i don't get how they have such low tolerances | 05:46 |
daftykins | 50 deg C and they're bad? wat | 05:46 |
mapps | ya i was surprised | 05:48 |
daftykins | ah, only a few pages left of a book \o/ | 05:54 |
daftykins | dunno whether to sleep or try a little work | 05:56 |
daftykins | still fixing up some old PCs :) almost done now | 05:56 |
knightwise | hey daftykins | 06:06 |
daftykins | good morning sir | 06:07 |
knightwise | workin on some old hardware I see ? | 06:15 |
daftykins | yeah, since i did my lovely skylake build i'm selling off my core 2 quad to a friend - and also come to possess a few more core 2 duo era machines | 06:16 |
daftykins | been fixing them up / finding faults and considering selling on via a local trade site | 06:16 |
knightwise | Running linux on 'em ? | 06:20 |
daftykins | no | 06:22 |
daftykins | might list it as an option for sale, but i don't think folk would spring for them so much that way | 06:23 |
daftykins | i wouldn't fancy the support ;) | 06:24 |
daftykins | just got a DVD writer on order, as right now one has a rather ugly white PATA drive which no longer reads CDs in it | 06:25 |
brobostigon | morning boys and girls. | 06:43 |
MooDoo | morning | 06:46 |
diplo | Morning all | 06:56 |
diplo | What a week to start exercising more often! need a shower at work at this rate :P | 06:56 |
daftykins | diplo: haha oh dear! what form of exercise? sprint to work? ;) | 07:06 |
diplo | Everything, I've been cycling, swimming, jogging and walking | 07:14 |
diplo | So cycle to and from work ( and other times ) walk 1-2 miles at lunch, jog a little later on, swim as and when Ican | 07:14 |
MooDoo | diplo: ah so you're playing pokemon go ;) | 07:16 |
diplo | No!!!!!! | 07:17 |
diplo | God no even! | 07:17 |
diplo | When I'm on my walks, the amount of people who just stop randomly and flick their screens, pretty sure they're all playing.... | 07:18 |
diplo | Good on them I guess for getting out, but the random stop starts is getting quite annoying | 07:18 |
daftykins | *Tux no ;) | 07:19 |
daftykins | yeah, it's only a matter of time i reckon before someone stops in their car and nobbles a cyclist | 07:20 |
diplo | I was out drinking last night, some guy swooped to a stop as we were wandering down a busy road, picked his phone ( i thought for a phone call ) no, my mate says he heard the distinctive noise of how you catch these things ( I've not played so don't know ! ) | 07:25 |
diplo | But I mean he stopped fairly stupidly, for a bloomin game! | 07:26 |
daftykins | such was the thrill of the chase | 07:28 |
daftykins | did he have a deer stalker on? | 07:28 |
daftykins | ;] | 07:28 |
diplo | hah | 07:32 |
davmor2 | Morning all | 08:11 |

davmor2 | JamesTait: every chorus sings man in the moon :D | 08:33 |
JamesTait | Little Boy Blue and ... | 08:34 |
MooDoo | :) | 08:41 |
* daftykins slides everyone a cuppa | 08:50 | |
* TwistedLucidity inspects cuppa...discovers it is not ice coffee...slides it back... | 08:52 | |
daftykins | i'll have you know that's Thailand's finest! | 08:53 |
daftykins | lul, i'm installing Windows 10 on a core 2 duo machine, on my old 150GB WD velociraptor | 08:54 |
daftykins | it sounds like millions of bugs are fighting at once | 08:54 |
davmor2 | TwistedLucidity: it's okay leave long enough it will go cold you can drink it then | 08:55 |
zmoylan-pi | 09:20 | |
foobarry | yeah daftykins i#m looking after the daughter at the mo | 09:31 |
foobarry | but sometimes it gets dull when she's dressing up dollies | 09:31 |
foobarry | trying to decide whether cheddar gorge caves or wookey hole for holiday | 09:31 |
diplo | Anyone else being affected by bt issues today ? | 09:31 |
TwistedLucidity | diplo: Just had an alert come through from work, BT are having issues nation wide. Affects those leasing BT lines too (i.e. everyone who isn't on Virgin) | 09:55 |
daftykins | oof! | 09:55 |
* zmoylan-pi licks finger, holds it in the air to judge conditions and predicts bt will blame the heat... :-) | 09:56 | |
diplo | Funny thing was ( this affected half our customers ) was that their lines were still up | 10:00 |
diplo | Just the ipsec vpn's were failing to connect | 10:00 |
diplo | Would love to know why | 10:01 |
davmor2 | diplo: just cause, that's why :) | 10:02 |
TwistedLucidity | diplo: Yup, seems to be taking out VPNs | 10:03 |
zmoylan-pi | the movie industry strikes back... | 10:04 |
diplo | Ah right, at least it wasn't just me | 10:04 |
daftykins | the good ol' Virtual Private Notwork | 10:04 |
davmor2 | diplo: possibly down to compression at my best guess if it only took out 1/2 | 10:07 |
diplo | Yeah, not really sure.. not sure how well BT talk about their major outages | 10:16 |
daftykins | annoyed me when my local ISP and our major telco decided they would no longer maintain a status page | 10:29 |
daftykins | they didn't seem to realise how many calls they'd spare themselves | 10:30 |
zmoylan-pi | but the guy who monitored the web page can answer calls AND do stuff when he's not answering calls... | 10:31 |
daftykins | :) | 10:31 |
daftykins | i think today marks my 1 month no-going-to-Costa anniversary | 10:34 |
daftykins | yes it does! \o/ | 10:34 |
foobarry | i managed 15 years of no costa | 10:36 |
foobarry | similar for starbucks :D | 10:36 |
daftykins | it's really been around that long? | 10:36 |
daftykins | we don't have a starbucks :) | 10:36 |
diplo | I don't go to either either | 10:38 |
diplo | Unless with someone who wants to, can't understand how people spend so much on coffee!!!! | 10:38 |
daftykins | for me, it's that they have a branch 20m from my front door | 10:38 |
diplo | but you have coffee in your house ? | 10:38 |
daftykins | wake up of a weekend and have nothing in the house? panino and coffee it is! | 10:39 |
daftykins | not the same thing. | 10:39 |
diplo | hah | 10:39 |
zmoylan-pi | people spending as much money on coffee per day as do for mobile phone service for 2-3 months... Oo | 10:39 |
daftykins | these are the downsides of living on the capital's high street | 10:39 |
daftykins | oh i can certainly say i was never as insane as to go daily... once or twice a week was my limit :) | 10:40 |
daftykins | also, it's all about the carrot cake | 10:49 |
diplo | hehe, the cake is stupidly dear too | 11:03 |
daftykins | does make you wonder what the entire thing pulls in, profit wise | 11:03 |
daftykins | sometimes you've just got to go out and live a bit, though! | 11:07 |
daftykins | ...so i'm told ;) | 11:07 |
zmoylan-pi | like outdoors and stuff?! | 11:07 |
daftykins | yeah! | 11:07 |
diddledan_ | looks like BT's issues were due to power problems at telecity in docklands | 12:38 |
diddledan_ | http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-36844712 | 12:39 |
DJones | Thats what they say, I blame everybody trying to do their hair with staighteners and hairdryers so they don't go crinkly in the heat | 12:39 |
DJones | Thats using all the power | 12:40 |
DJones | BT Openreach are pretty useless anyway, been waiting almost 10 days for them to come and fix a fault on our voice line, excuse is there's too many faults and not enough staff..... Erm.. Isn't that part of the infrastucture planning | 12:41 |
MooDoo | http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-36844712 | 12:42 |
zmoylan-pi | all those selfish people wanting to breath running air con... | 12:55 |
zmoylan-pi | they might have been looking up what a voice line is... :-P | 12:59 |
DJones | You'd think they'd know, its what spam callers use to send junk messages | 13:00 |
DJones | Surely they pay BT to not be banned and prosecuted for ignoring TPS preferences | 13:00 |
zmoylan-pi | if they knew what those were they'd have to do something about it | 13:00 |
DJones | As in backhanders | 13:01 |
zmoylan-pi | one way they get paid, the other they have more work and less paying | 13:01 |
foobarry | does anyone know about bike brakes? i was wondering about the sizes of the barrel/nut that screws into the lever assembly | 13:41 |
foobarry | its a junior 20 inch bike, | 13:41 |
foobarry | one of these http://imgur.com/a/uJi6g | 13:42 |
diddledan_ | http://krebsonsecurity.com/2016/07/carbanak-gang-tied-to-russian-security-firm/ | 15:19 |
davmor2 | foobarry: they aren't standard you would be better off buying a new or secondhand one for the part | 15:50 |
m0nkey_ | Grace Hopper explaining a Nano second.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEpsKnWZrJ8 | 16:05 |
diddledan_ | nice | 16:16 |
diddledan_ | I want one | 16:16 |
diddledan_ | is there an official store for purchasing of nanoseconds? | 16:16 |
m0nkey_ | You could always make your own | 16:16 |
m0nkey_ | She gives the length | 16:16 |
m0nkey_ | 11.8 inches | 16:16 |
diddledan_ | never mind the length, feel the width | 16:17 |
diddledan_ | something about an actress and a bishop | 16:17 |
diddledan_ | how long is a picosecond then? | 16:18 |
diddledan_ | 0.3mm | 16:19 |
diddledan_ | google's conversion thingy can't grok the correlation | 16:22 |
diddledan_ | "1 picosecond in milimeters" it fails | 16:23 |
Myrtti | Thunder and lightning | 16:39 |
m0nkey_ | Very, very frightening me! | 16:44 |
m0nkey_ | diddledan_, need your regex skill again | 16:46 |
m0nkey_ | from [127.0.0.1] (helo=localhost) | 16:47 |
m0nkey_ | need to get the word, localhost | 16:47 |
m0nkey_ | i thought helo=([^\)]*) might get it, but it doesn't | 16:48 |
ali1234 | str.strip().split('=')[1][:-1] | 16:51 |
m0nkey_ | needs to be regex | 16:51 |
m0nkey_ | the received header could also be from: computername ([x.x.x.x]) | 16:52 |
m0nkey_ | I have a list of regex to test | 16:52 |
m0nkey_ | which is why regex | 16:52 |
m0nkey_ | nvm.. got it | 16:54 |
m0nkey_ | i hate regex | 17:32 |
diddledan_ | I made a thing: https://uappexplorer.com/app/unofficial-hexchat.diddledan | 20:35 |
diddledan_ | I'm using it right now | 20:36 |
diddledan_ | it works | 20:36 |
diddledan_ | \o/ | 20:36 |
daftykins | what's that site o0 | 20:53 |
daftykins | nm read the page :P | 20:54 |
ball | daftykins: hamsterdance.com ? | 20:54 |
daftykins | < diddledan_> I made a thing: https://uappexplorer.com/app/unofficial-hexchat.diddledan | 20:55 |
daftykins | it would appear mr diddle of the dan made a snappy package for hexchat | 20:55 |
diddledan_ | I did :-) | 20:56 |
diddledan_ | and I'm in it now | 20:56 |
daftykins | *gasp* | 20:56 |
daftykins | i've got a box of 3 double chocolate magnum ice creams | 21:19 |
daftykins | i think the shrinkening has occurred, because they're a ridiculous size :| | 21:19 |
diddledan_ | pokémon go has doubled nintendo's valuation making them more valuable than Sony | 21:26 |
SebthreeBQM10HD | hi | 21:52 |
diddledan_ | does the ubuntu community still use bazaar mostly? | 21:59 |
diddledan_ | e.g. the various maintainers | 21:59 |
ali1234 | depends how you define community | 21:59 |
ali1234 | a lot of the new fangled stuff is being done in git | 22:00 |
ali1234 | like snappy and juju | 22:00 |
daftykins | how bazaar, how bazaar ~ | 22:00 |
ali1234 | all the old stuff is still in bazaar because nobody got time to convert it | 22:00 |
* diddledan_ boshes daftykins | 22:00 | |
ali1234 | launchpad supports git now though | 22:00 |
* SebthreeBQM10HD thinks Ubuntu convergence is starting to look more interesting now | 22:00 | |
* SebthreeBQM10HD by certan videos that seen recently | 22:01 | |
diddledan_ | grr. I wish the encfs package would give alternative options rather than just telling you it is insecure when you install it | 22:02 |
daftykins | diddledan_: DANGER DIDDLE ROBINSON! | 22:02 |
ali1234 | i'm having a word blank. what's the word that means "morally neutral"? as in "science is <morally neutral>, it depends how you use the results" | 22:03 |
* diddledan_ diddles robinson | 22:03 | |
diddledan_ | ambivalent? | 22:03 |
ali1234 | hmm... not really, but close | 22:04 |
diddledan_ | ambiguous :-p | 22:04 |
ali1234 | no :) | 22:04 |
daftykins | indifferent | 22:04 |
ali1234 | doesn't really capture the moral aspect. i'm sure there's an exact word for this though | 22:04 |
diddledan_ | promiscuous | 22:05 |
ali1234 | lol | 22:05 |
diddledan_ | corrups | 22:06 |
diddledan_ | corrupt* | 22:06 |
diddledan_ | :-p | 22:07 |
diddledan_ | agnostic | 22:07 |
diddledan_ | uninvested | 22:12 |
diddledan_ | impartial | 22:13 |
diddledan_ | ^^^^^ that one | 22:13 |
ali1234 | impartial is good | 22:14 |
ali1234 | i mean a good word for it | 22:14 |
diddledan_ | unbiased would be another | 22:14 |
ali1234 | that's the same as impartial. it's still no exactly right though | 22:14 |
diddledan_ | clinical | 22:14 |
diddledan_ | indifferent | 22:15 |
* diddledan_ has a thesaurus open | 22:15 | |
daftykins | a Brighton high school excluded some students for wearing shorts on the hottest day of the year | 22:15 |
daftykins | good work schools :> | 22:15 |
diddledan_ | daftykins, they were girls who had been told to wear skirts short enough you can see their difference | 22:16 |
daftykins | http://www.theargus.co.uk/news/14629093.Boys_excluded_from_lessons_after_wearing_shorts_on_hottest_day_of_the_year/?ref=mrb&lp=5 | 22:16 |
diddledan_ | annoying that girls often get told they cannot wear trousers | 22:16 |
daftykins | silly banner at the bottom to complain of adblocking usage, quick firefox inspection and 'node' deletion and bye bye! | 22:16 |
ali1234 | amoral | 22:17 |
ali1234 | that's it | 22:17 |
diddledan_ | aha | 22:17 |
ali1234 | that's the word i wanted | 22:17 |
ali1234 | "lacking a moral sense; unconcerned with the rightness or wrongness of something." | 22:17 |
diddledan | hmm, my hexchat is dead | 22:32 |
diddledan | :-( | 22:32 |
diddledan | it's trying to call fchown syscall which is banned | 22:32 |
* daftykins follows the support link | 22:33 | |
daftykins | :D | 22:33 |
diddledan | lol | 22:33 |
daftykins | i'm quite glad i finished dealing with all these PCs, i hope i don't end up having to give them away though :P | 22:35 |
diddledan | \o/ | 22:51 |
diddledan | money hopefully | 22:51 |
diddledan | they've been a pain for you so hopefully you can get a bit of a reward | 22:52 |
daftykins | i was just daft enough to persist with ones that were wonky in the past really | 22:54 |
daftykins | i've got 3 asus motherboards that are all funky in some shape or form, to the side of me | 22:54 |
