| mapps | hi all | 03:22 |
| daftykins | \o | 03:24 |
| daftykins | a bloody Aussie with the same name as me has bought wine and signed up my personal email to it! | 03:24 |
| mapps | :) | 03:25 |
| daftykins | debating how unpleasant to be | 03:25 |
| mapps | hah | 03:27 |
| daftykins | gonna phone him :) got a # here on the account | 03:32 |
| ali1234 | i'm still getting junk email from america | 03:35 |
| ali1234 | after the job search they moved on to get rich quick schemes, and then gambling websites :/ | 03:36 |
| daftykins | ooh | 03:36 |
| ali1234 | you can almost feel the desperation | 03:36 |
| daftykins | just heard the guys message saying my name as his in an aussie accent! | 03:38 |
| ali1234 | imagine if it turned out google had a bug, and actually loads of people had the same email address | 03:39 |
| daftykins | nah, i went through the process once before with a woman in the midwest US, she had numbers after the "dkins" equivalent and just chose to sign up like an idiot | 03:40 |
| daftykins | for a time she even began to use me as a human spam filter, as i kindly forwarded them... until i decided to take no more, reset her account password and cancelled her order. | 03:40 |
| daftykins | there was something really satisfying about receiving an email which said "hello ma'am here is a copy of your email where you asked us to cancel your order" naturally sent to my address. | 03:42 |
| ali1234 | the only time i ever did that is when someone posted a craigslist "personals" ad using my email | 03:43 |
| daftykins | oof | 03:43 |
| zmoylan-pi | i picked 2 random words for an email account that vaguely describe me, a few years later i find a german metal band with the same name... | 03:46 |
| daftykins | :D | 03:46 |
| daftykins | dick und doof | 03:47 |
| * daftykins runs | 03:47 | |
| * zmoylan-pi trips daftykins | 03:47 | |
| daftykins | no... no... NOT THE PI! | 03:47 |
| daftykins | ah nice, he did it already! i'm no longer reg'd to naked wines aus | 03:52 |
| daftykins | neat he's emailing me XD | 03:55 |
| zmoylan-pi | go with english is your second language in your responses... :-P | 03:58 |

| ging | what is the best thing for screen casting on ubuntu these days? | 09:27 |
| ging | the ubuntu wiki seems out of date | 09:27 |
| ging | it says xvidcap | 09:27 |
| ging | but it's not there in 14.04 | 09:28 |
| davmor2 | ging: kazaam/recordmydesktop are the two I've used they seem to work | 09:33 |
| davmor2 | popey: did you get home in the end? | 09:34 |
| ging | thanks davmor2 | 09:35 |
| ging | it's popey's fault, anyway it says he last updated the ubuntu wiki about screen casting | 09:35 |
| ging | in 2009 | 09:35 |
| ging | i know people who weren't even born then | 09:36 |
| popey | davmor2: ya | 09:36 |
| popey | ging: simplesxreenrecorder or vokoscreen | 09:37 |
| davmor2 | popey: thank god for small mercies :) | 09:37 |
| ging | :( but i've just started installing kazam | 09:37 |
| ging | can any of them do a specific windows and audio? | 09:38 |
| davmor2 | most can | 09:39 |
| ging | looks like kazam can | 09:39 |
| popey | dont use kazam | 09:46 |
| popey | others are better tgese days | 09:46 |
| Myrtti | what kind of screencasting? | 09:47 |
| ging | how many kinds are there? | 09:49 |
| ging | i'm trying to record what i do on my screen into a video | 09:50 |
| ging | with audio | 09:50 |
| ging | i thought that was the only type of screencasting | 09:50 |
| Myrtti | Internet live (a la Twitch), interactive (a la VNC and friends) and recorded (a la screencapture) | 09:50 |
| ging | live screen casting seems like a really bad idea | 09:51 |
| ging | i would need to purge my laptop of all bad things first | 09:52 |
| Myrtti | well, a lot of gamers do it | 09:52 |
| ging | do i count as a gamer now if i play a bit of pokemon go? | 09:53 |
| ging | well turns out i need a new microphone to do it anyway, all this picks up is noise | 09:55 |
| ging | but kazam seem to be ok for recording | 09:56 |
| ging | what do the others do better? | 09:56 |

| diddledan | MORNING! I FEEL LIKE YELLING TODAY | 14:31 |
| Myrtti | oh dear | 14:35 |
| diddledan | ello Myrtti | 14:37 |
| Myrtti | ello ello | 14:37 |
| diddledan | oh dammit, I didn't yell | 14:37 |
| diddledan | :-p | 14:37 |
| davmor2 | Myrtti: you forgot the "and what's going on 'ere" bit, you'll never pass for an English copper if you don't use the whole phrases ;) | 14:38 |
| diddledan | davmor2: that and pissing by the door | 14:39 |
| diddledan | zootropolis is fun | 18:11 |
| knightwise | hey diddledan | 18:15 |
| knightwise | zootropolis or zootopia ? | 18:16 |
| zmoylan-pi | zoolander isn't bad either... | 18:16 |
| knightwise | Zoolander i s awe-some | 18:17 |
| diddledan | zootropolis | 18:21 |
| diddledan | the recent disney film | 18:21 |
| knightwise | diddledan: indeed. Great inside jokes, and some pretty strong message in the storyline too | 18:25 |
| knightwise | without getting too muchy | 18:25 |
| diddledan | I love the dual message that anyone can achieve anything AND that we shouldn't discriminate | 18:31 |
| knightwise | AND the snarky referral to "Frozen" | 18:35 |
| Thudthrone | /msg NickServ identify <145?JuiceBox145> | 18:40 |
| diddledan | oops | 18:40 |
| Thudthrone | fuck | 18:40 |
| zmoylan-pi | double whoops | 18:40 |
| knightwise | Thudthrone: Ouch | 18:41 |
| knightwise | time to reset that pw | 18:41 |
| Thudthrone | indeed | 18:41 |
| knightwise | Would anyone like a juicebox while we wait ? :p | 18:41 |
| zmoylan-pi | dibs on the itunes account... :-P | 18:41 |
| Thudthrone | haha luckily i don't re-use pw's for this exact reason | 18:42 |
| knightwise | Nah :) how bout teh Gmail one | 18:42 |
| diddledan | Thudthrone: don't feel bad about it. I'm sure it's a common occurrence given the number of servers and respective channels | 18:48 |
| zmoylan-pi | it is a weakness of irc that you see passwords like that regularly | 18:48 |
| diddledan | in other musing, that's a pretty impressive password, too | 18:49 |
| diddledan | aye | 18:49 |
| diddledan | the problem is it's so easy to accidentally have one or more space characters before the / | 18:49 |
| ali1234 | freenode supports identifying via AUTH so you can just put your password into your irc client. you don't need to msg nickserv | 18:50 |
| Thudthrone | haha yeah it's a pretty ridiculous method of authentication | 18:50 |
| diddledan | it'ld be nice if the clients or even servers would protect against it | 18:50 |
| diddledan | ali1234: you need to know that though, when you register with nickserv it doesn't tell you about it :-( | 18:50 |
| ali1234 | well now you know | 18:51 |
| zmoylan-pi | an ascii art version of clippy popping up and saying 'it looks like you're about to leak your nickname password, would you like to continue?' | 18:51 |
| diddledan | I knew anyway. I mean for newcomers | 18:51 |
| diddledan | zmoylan-pi: awesome idea | 18:51 |
| Thudthrone | i new it was only a matter of time before i messed it up. | 18:51 |
| diddledan | I'm gonna have to unsubscribe from https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1573408 | 18:53 |
| lubotu3 | Ubuntu bug 1573408 in gnome-software (Ubuntu Xenial) "GNOME Software does not install third-party .deb packages" [High,Fix released] | 18:53 |
| diddledan | random folk keep commenting on it saying that it still isn't fixed despite it being so | 18:54 |
| diddledan | (I've tested on a fully-updated install and everything is normal) | 18:54 |
| ali1234 | it's broken in the installer image. people install then immediately try to install chrome and it fails | 18:56 |
| diddledan | gotta love linkedin - just got an email about someone starting a forum topic whose title I can only read in a Jamaican accent: "Suggest me Wordpress Theme And Important Plugins to Build E-Commerce Website " | 18:57 |
| diddledan | I would have expected the .1 release yesterday to have rectified that. maybe it hasn't | 18:57 |
| ali1234 | it should | 18:57 |
| diddledan | does anyone have multiple monitors and ubuntu 16.04? I recently installed fresh onto this version and can't seem to get the "sticky edges" setting to actually change anything - the switch toggles but the edge between my monitors still catches my mouse | 19:28 |
| DJones | diddledan: I do, I don't have any problems with sticky edges - Mine was upgrade from 15.10 | 20:11 |
| diddledan | DJones: does toggling the switch change anything? | 20:12 |
| DJones | Give me a few minutes, will need to go and start the machine up in the office | 20:12 |
| diddledan | lol, take your time :-) | 20:14 |
| diddledan | I'm not going anywhere. ever | 20:14 |
| * diddledan warns | 20:14 | |
| DJones | JUst realised when I booted up, its still on 15.10 | 20:19 |
| DJones | I know what I'll be doing tomorrow. Upgrading :) | 20:20 |
| DJones | I'll have a look tomorrow after I've upgraded & let you know | 20:21 |
| diddledan | \o/ | 20:28 |
| diddledan | upgrades FTW | 20:28 |

| diddledan | remember risc architecture is going to change everything | 23:03 |
| zmoylan-pi | angelina was right about that | 23:03 |
| diddledan | except it was johnny that said it | 23:03 |
| zmoylan-pi | all those iphones can't be wrong | 23:03 |
| diddledan | no you're right | 23:04 |

| diddledan | or `(while read i; do wget $i; done) < textfile` | 23:14 |
| diddledan | I think that will do it | 23:14 |
| zmoylan-pi | better off downloading bash scripting ebooks and getting it running under windows... ditto vim and manuals for same :-) | 23:16 |
| daftykins | nah i saved the text and did "wget -i file.txt" | 23:17 |
