[08:02] <davmor2> Morning all
[08:02] <foobarry> o/
[08:04] <diddledan> ello
[08:13] <foobarry> anyone been watching mr robot?
[08:14] <foobarry> very linux heavy programme
[08:14] <foobarry> lots of gnome and kali linux
[08:18] <TwistedLucidity> That's because Linux is a hacker's tool
[08:18] <TwistedLucidity> Or something....
[08:18] <foobarry> often they use Hollywood OS
[08:18] <foobarry> or FutureOS
[08:19] <foobarry> but i think they wanted to appear a bit more genuine than CSI
[08:20] <IrishJen> Is there anywhere my employer can actually purchase an Ubuntu phone at the moment, for me ?
[08:23] <IrishJen> hello?
[08:24] <foobarry> which vendor? bq?
[08:24] <IrishJen> any ...
[08:24] <IrishJen> the best one.
[08:25] <foobarry> !best
[08:26] <foobarry> i think thats the meizu pro 5
[08:26] <IrishJen> any ideas ?
[08:26] <foobarry> popey probably knows best
[08:26] <IrishJen> where is popey ?
[08:27] <foobarry> usually around
[08:27] <IrishJen> well i need some info on this. soon.
[08:28] <foobarry> i've even heard you can flash the android version to ubuntu if you can't get hold of the ubuntu one. caveat emptor though
[08:29] <DJones> Maybe there's something in this link http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/04/meizu-pro-5-ubuntu-edition-buy
[08:29] <IrishJen> I want one that is ubuntu - out of the box.
[08:29] <IrishJen> opening ....
[08:29] <brobostigon> morning boys and girls.
[08:30] <diddledan> foobarry: I've been watching mr robot. awesome show!
[08:30] <foobarry> trying to decide if i like it. on series 2 now
[08:30] <foobarry> i have been burned by US series before
[08:30] <diddledan> aye
[08:30] <foobarry> they get into doldrums and nothing happens for 5 series
[08:30] <foobarry> string you along
[08:31] <IrishJen> DJones: it says that is out of stock - where can I buy an Ubuntu phone from ?
[08:31] <diddledan> I'm also currently watching dark matter
[08:31] <DJones> IrishJen: I don't know, thats about all I've seen
[08:31] <diddledan> they're my two current shows
[08:31] <IrishJen> Are there any ubuntu phones available ?
[08:44] <popey> IrishJen: not currently
[08:45] <IrishJen> right-oh bye
[08:45] <popey> IrishJen: one question...
[08:46] <IrishJen> right ...
[08:46] <popey> why don't you ever come on irc with the same nickname?
[08:46] <popey> but a different one every time
[08:46] <IrishJen> dunno. ask my therapist.
[08:47] <popey> le sigh
[08:47] <diddledan> who was that then?
[08:49] <TwistedLucidity> Oh, was that that trolloid again? Pops in about once a month, asks a question to make Ubuntu looks bad/irritate popey and then leaves?
[08:49] <popey> hard to say, they use a new nick every time they come in
[08:49] <foobarry> similar IP?
[08:50] <popey> i have lost count of the nicknames
[08:50] <TwistedLucidity> popey: So where can I buy an Ubuphone?
[08:50]  * TwistedLucidity dodges slap
[08:51] <foobarry> i thought kids stopped knocking doorbells and running away when they got to age 10
[08:51] <foobarry> obviously not
[08:52] <TwistedLucidity> Welcomoe to the Internet
[08:52] <foobarry> although it is the school holidays...
[08:52] <foobarry> i did it once and didn't run away but hid behind a van
[08:52] <foobarry> got caught
[08:52] <foobarry> didn't see the point unless i saw them come to the door and look around
[08:53] <diddledan> I did it once, but stayed and asked if fred was coming out to play when they answered the door
[08:53] <foobarry> a bit like the kid who is now refreshing logs
[08:53] <TwistedLucidity> Should have hid behind a lamp post - Looney Tunes logic
[08:53] <diddledan> I was a good boy
[08:53] <foobarry> plot twist.
[08:53] <foobarry> fred was 37 year old
[08:53] <foobarry> power lifting champion
[08:53] <foobarry> bone crusher fred
[09:20] <JamesTait> Good morning all! Happy Tuesday, happy Book Lovers' Day, and happy birthday davmor2! 😃  🎂
[09:50] <davmor2> JamesTait: that's easy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inS9gAgSENE and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mRqF_F6IhY
[09:50] <davmor2> JamesTait: and thanks :)
[12:47] <foobarry> amazon prime x-ray thing has too many spoilers
[12:47] <foobarry> !ping
[12:56] <diddledan> !ding
[13:01] <czajkowski> this may be of use to people to share with their networks http://www.meetup.com/Linuxing-In-London/events/233034121/
[13:15] <davmor2> diddledan: when are you implementing !ring Wrong! ;)
[13:15] <diddledan> davmor2: HAH I wondered about that exact reply too
[13:15] <diddledan> complete with teh W on wrong
[13:16] <davmor2> diddledan: randomise it with Wrong and ring so sometime you get ring ring and others ring wrong you know it makes sense ;)
[13:17] <diddledan> no way, pedro!
[14:06] <popey> foobarry: saw this and thought of you with your dioramas http://imgur.com/gallery/syB1J
[14:07] <DJones> That'd  be easier to do in creative mode on minecraft :)
[14:08] <DJones> Grr, fancying liver & onions for tea, haven't got any liver going spare
[14:09] <zmoylan-pi> were's hannibal lecter when you need him...
[14:10] <foobarry> i love that water
[14:10] <foobarry> man that is an excellent model
[14:11] <foobarry> that'll be like lego movie DON'T TOUCH MY STUFF KIDS
[14:15] <davmor2> zmoylan-pi: I was just thinking onions shouldn't it be fava beans and a nice chianti
[14:16] <diddledan> what are father beans anyway, zmoylan-pi ?
[14:17]  * diddledan goes to find a bottle of chianti
[14:18] <gpd_> ls
[14:18] <zmoylan-pi> if heinz don't can them then i don't know...
[14:54] <DJones> Ah well, gnochi in a cheese, bacon & chicken sauce with cauliflower cheese instead of liver & onions
[14:55] <DJones> Had to laugh at the local traffic chaos earlier today
[14:55] <DJones> https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/13887074_10210168040657639_9148016947534854510_n.jpg?oh=df9fa8c3717af976d1e5fde0fbd993b5&oe=5853F76F

[14:55] <diddledan> moron
[14:58] <DJones> Yep
[14:59] <diddledan> we had a bus do it locally a couple months ago
[14:59] <diddledan> http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-hampshire-36428881
[15:01] <DJones> Yeah, we've got a stobarts/tesco distribution centre nearby, & this happens around once a month, plus major diversions & construction work for the new merseygateway bridge changing every few days
[15:01] <DJones> Not just stobarts to be fair
[15:07] <diddledan> this is clickbait: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-37009324
[15:08]  * DJones doesn't click
[15:08] <diddledan> people should be allowed to wear wth they want IMO
[15:08]  * diddledan baits DJones
[15:08]  * DJones passes diddledan to Brian May for baiting
[15:09] <diddledan> better Brian than Theresa
[15:10] <DJones> Oh I don't know, he's quite ranty in anything involving baiting, specially bears & badgers
[15:14] <TwistedLucidity> Would you rather repeatedly dive on to sand with expose skin, or with a protective barrier?
[15:56] <dwatkins> by barrier do you mean something like sunscreen, or a large metal sign?
[18:53] <daftykins> DJones: time for another of those temp bans :>
[18:54] <daftykins> diddledan: back on yonder desktop today?
[18:54] <diddledan> yup
[18:54] <daftykins> \o/
[18:55] <daftykins> my capacitors arrived already!
[18:55] <daftykins> next day from Devon = wow
[18:55] <diddledan> nice
[18:55] <diddledan> how badly are you going to solder them in place?
[18:55] <daftykins> time for a curry first though i think :) been out taking data off an old vista laptop, ugh
[18:56] <daftykins> well it's gonna be my first attempt sooo...
[21:48] <daftykins> http://imgur.com/a/halRm
[21:49] <daftykins> second try!
[22:13] <zmoylan-pi> remember the motto of the usb design team... 3rd time lucky... :-)
[22:16] <daftykins> XD
[22:17] <daftykins> i'm really pleased with that, i've just swapped 9 caps total
[22:17] <daftykins> there are 3 more i could do, of the same type, but they're intact right now
[22:17] <zmoylan-pi> if it ain't broken...
[22:17] <daftykins> er 4 i mean
[22:17] <daftykins> indeed! though i think the board zapped the RAM last time when the caps went
[22:18] <daftykins> yay for learning to solder \o/
[22:18] <daftykins> https://www.dropbox.com/s/15xc3u2s7ij93kq/IMG_20160809_224752.jpg?dl=0
[22:18] <daftykins> there are the rears of 3 i did
[22:18] <zmoylan-pi> not too shabby
[22:18] <daftykins> ta ^_^
[22:19] <daftykins> sometimes i felt i could drag back down solder that had clung to the cap legs from the hole, instead of think about putting any down
[22:19] <daftykins> i don't have any tools to test my work mind you, or know how to test...
[22:20] <zmoylan-pi> can't you test caps with a multimeter?
[22:22]  * zmoylan-pi goes to check... http://www.electricaltechnology.org/2013/06/how-to-check-capacitor-with-digital.html
[22:23] <daftykins> to my eternal shame i still don't own one
[22:23] <daftykins> but i was more thinking the fitting to the board
[22:23] <zmoylan-pi> spotted cheap one in lidl today...
[22:24] <daftykins> another amazon venture for the future methinks ;)
[22:25] <zmoylan-pi> i have one rattling around here... used to use it for checking network cables (first co ax then cat 5) till i got a cat 5 cable tester
[22:25] <daftykins> =]
[22:25] <zmoylan-pi> and serial/parallel cables of course...
[22:26] <daftykins> how fancy did you go? i have a cheap 9v battery one that just sends power down and beeps
[22:26] <zmoylan-pi> all i wanted at the time was one that audible tone for when a cable was making a circuit so i didn't have to glance from the probe leads to the read out... heard a tone... it was ok...
[22:27] <zmoylan-pi> i think iirc i got it in maplins for ~ir£20
[22:28] <zmoylan-pi> or it might have been peats the irish long gone equivalent store now i think of it... i used to get a lot of cables from them too which were cheap but iffy
[22:28] <daftykins> sounds like mine
[22:29] <zmoylan-pi> i was first introduced to a multimeter when i got a 20' parallel cable made... it was marginal and would work with some pcs printers and not others... 12' was the longest reliable lenght you could get easily iirc
[23:13] <daftykins> it LIVES!
[23:13] <daftykins> http://imgur.com/a/halRm
[23:16] <zmoylan-pi> this is were a foot pedal under the desk for thunder and lightning effects would really pay off and you'll have to spend time working on your evil cackle
[23:16] <daftykins> :>
[23:17] <zmoylan-pi> and a huge double knife switch on the wall for adding power to the pc would be a neat trick... :-)
[23:21] <zmoylan-pi> hmmm, a rasp pi doing voice recog looking for key phrases to then play mp3s against... 400 quatloos on the newcomers... ::cue star trek fighting music:: ...
[23:23] <daftykins> :>
[23:23] <daftykins> i wish i knew why my pi3 has issues with the onkyo AVR of mine
[23:23] <daftykins> ooh i should go and check that thread
