| SuperMatt | the good life | 07:56 |
| foobarry | did anyone see that one off goodnight sweetheart they recently made? | 07:58 |
| foobarry | it was actually watchable. so is the current red dwarf series | 07:58 |
| SuperMatt | dammit man, you were supposed to say something else, and then I was going to say mornington crescent and win | 07:58 |
| diplo | Morning all | 08:01 |
| davmor2 | Morning all | 08:06 |
| sebsebseb | davmor2: hi | 08:06 |
| sebsebseb | davmor2: so Facebook adveritisng for my event sot of working, but.... | 08:06 |
| sebsebseb | sort above | 08:06 |
| Gargoyle | mornin' | 08:06 |
| knightwise | Been watching Westworld | 08:11 |
| knightwise | pretty pleased with the first two episodes | 08:12 |
| TwistedLucidity | Is it better than the movie? | 08:13 |
| knightwise | Its a little "deeper" | 08:13 |
| knightwise | although I LOVED the movie :) | 08:13 |
| knightwise | Scared the crap out of me as a kid | 08:13 |
| * knightwise still thinks about the scenes in the long tunnels | 08:13 | |
| davmor2 | sebsebseb: was there meant to be something after the but... | 08:15 |
| foobarry | the movie was a bit pervy in the same way star trek is just a bunch of horny teenagers | 08:16 |
| foobarry | taps into fantasies about a saloon bar whorehouse | 08:16 |
| sebsebseb | davmor2: well yeah :d | 08:16 |
| sebsebseb | davmor2: so it's Linux and Creative Commons event | 08:17 |
| sebsebseb | davmor2: but... | 08:17 |
| sebsebseb | but for some reson the Facebook adveritsing is mostly targetting woemn, altough in the right kind of age range at least, like 25 to 33, but guess what that means? | 08:17 |
| TwistedLucidity | You will have lots of female attendees? | 08:18 |
| sebsebseb | TwistedLucidity: heh that would be nice actually I guess | 08:18 |
| sebsebseb | ,but yeah your close | 08:18 |
| sebsebseb | loads well only like four so far it seems, but may bring in more | 08:18 |
| sebsebseb | TwistedLucidity: the more correct answer is going to get artists and such hmm | 08:19 |
| davmor2 | sebsebseb: if it has a facebook page just let popey know about it and then most of the UK will know about it ;) | 08:19 |
| TwistedLucidity | Which fits nicely with CC stuff | 08:19 |
| sebsebseb | so looks lilke really going to have to try harder to make this Creative Commons aspect good | 08:19 |
| sebsebseb | that takes time and work~! | 08:19 |
| sebsebseb | uhmm was doing to look for more "suitable" music now, but got distracted by the mostly unsuitable Severed Fifth h eh | 08:19 |
| TwistedLucidity | Although there is a slight irony in promoting [GNU/]Linux and Creative Commons over Facebook. | 08:19 |
| sebsebseb | davmor2: a Creative Commons uk page you mean or ? | 08:20 |
| sebsebseb | TwistedLucidity: what's the irony? and just one of the attemped ways to try and get some more people in | 08:20 |
| sebsebseb | but got to go through a few hundred or so each time, not interested people, before getting the few that are, it seems, on Facebook that is | 08:21 |
| TwistedLucidity | sebsebseb: Promoting freedom over a closed platform is what I meant. I know why you're doing it, it just amuses me slightly is all. | 08:21 |
| davmor2 | sebsebseb: no I mean if there is a page or facebook page that advertises the event let popey know it | 08:21 |
| sebsebseb | at least the cost is still low, but I wonder by next week, if my budget of 30 pounds ( which I might up a bit with reason ), will be all spent | 08:21 |
| sebsebseb | for the Facebook marketitng | 08:21 |
| sebsebseb | TwistedLucidity: well it's aimed at general public, they use Facebook! | 08:22 |
| TwistedLucidity | That's because they don't know any better! :-P | 08:22 |
| sebsebseb | TwistedLucidity: not using Twitter for this, uh to that, one is enough like this for this one. | 08:22 |
| * sebsebseb doesn't like Facebook or Twitter | 08:22 | |
| TwistedLucidity | I wonder how GNUSocial is going these days? I really meant to set that up and well....life | 08:23 |
| sebsebseb | http://identi.ca was good, but then the community split in half. those who wanted to carry on on pump,io and those who wanted to continue with the old status.net on another site | 08:23 |
| sebsebseb | TwistedLucidity: yeah I used to use identica quite a bit for a while at one stage | 08:23 |
| sebsebseb | but well that's differnet, and that was nice, and yeah | 08:23 |
| sebsebseb | TwistedLucidity: actsaully I got ot meet the guy who started identi.ca at FOSDEM one year as well :) | 08:23 |
| sebsebseb | which year I don't remember exactly, I been five years now. uhmm I guess it was 2013 or something | 08:24 |
| sebsebseb | TwistedLucidity: indeed promoting freedom, bingo exacly what it is, but software, and creative commons multimead stuff to | 08:25 |
| sebsebseb | loads of artists music peopel etc, won't een know about CC yet | 08:25 |
| TwistedLucidity | Matt Lee come to our LUG to give a talk. We couldn't get enough folks together (very small LUG) so we had beers instead \o/ | 08:25 |
| TwistedLucidity | (Matt Lee of GNU Social fame) | 08:25 |
| sebsebseb | TwistedLucidity: which LUG is that, also I have mett Matt Lee :) | 08:25 |
| sebsebseb | in 2014 | 08:25 |
| sebsebseb | since I decided to go on a special visit, to attend one of his talks etc | 08:26 |
| sebsebseb | that was happening a train ride away, longish one | 08:26 |
| sebsebseb | TwistedLucidity: would be nice if these more open sites, federated sites and what not | 08:27 |
| sebsebseb | were all more popular | 08:27 |
| sebsebseb | but nope | 08:27 |
| sebsebseb | not with the society we have etc | 08:27 |
| sebsebseb | TwistedLucidity: companies really dominate things | 08:27 |
| sebsebseb | money this money that, oh and brexit will be something to h eh | 08:27 |
| TwistedLucidity | It's hard for a non-techy to do though. And you have to worry about redundancy, back-ups etc. | 08:27 |
| TwistedLucidity | Security.... | 08:27 |
| TwistedLucidity | Tricky stuff | 08:27 |
| sebsebseb | apparnatly petrol will go up five pencce a litter soon since that to etc etc | 08:27 |
| sebsebseb | TwistedLucidity: a non techy to do what? | 08:28 |
| sebsebseb | hard for | 08:28 |
| TwistedLucidity | Install, say, GNUSocial, ensure it is secure and so on | 08:28 |
| sebsebseb | TwistedLucidity: yeah I guess, but there are quite a few sites out there, using that | 08:28 |
| sebsebseb | I think | 08:28 |
| sebsebseb | or well for status.net there still are | 08:28 |
| TwistedLucidity | I'm still not convinced my ownCloud install is safe to use. :-S | 08:29 |
| JonTheNiceGuy[m] | TwistedLucidity: have you seen sandstorm.io yet? | 08:29 |
| TwistedLucidity | JonTheNiceGuy[m]: Uh, nope. That's a new one. | 08:29 |
| sebsebseb | TwistedLucidity: so what are the details for that, so someone can get in easier :D | 08:29 |
| JonTheNiceGuy[m] | It's a very secure, self hosting platform | 08:30 |
| sebsebseb | JonTheNiceGuy[m]: aww going to have to look at sosme other music sources to | 08:30 |
| TwistedLucidity | sebsebseb: Hire someone who know's what they are doing, just as you would a plumber. :-D | 08:30 |
| sebsebseb | JonTheNiceGuy[m]: shame about the lack of a serach feature and by genre as well | 08:30 |
| sebsebseb | TwistedLucidity: so is that what I Want, more female attendes in 20's to early 30's :D | 08:31 |
| sebsebseb | TwistedLucidity: trying to promote tech to a not that interested woman, can be differnet, to a not that interested man | 08:32 |
| TwistedLucidity | JonTheNiceGuy[m]: Sandstorm looks neat, maybe even more overkill for my needs than ownCloud is TBH. Still...might give it a punt at some point for giggles. I know folks who might have a use for it | 08:33 |
| TwistedLucidity | sebsebseb: Is it? I've little (well, no) marketing experience. | 08:34 |
| sebsebseb | TwistedLucidity: can be | 08:35 |
| TwistedLucidity | I guess there can be a cultural slant to things. | 08:35 |
| sebsebseb | hmm maybe ths song can be used , not that keen on it, but it's not that bad I guess | 08:36 |
| TwistedLucidity | Right...supoort calls...who hasn't read the blasted instructions today? :-| | 08:37 |
| Gargoyle | TwistedLucidity, Maybe you should have a look at https://github.com/facebook. The product might be closed, but Facebook as a company has done a lot more than others for open-source development of large scale web apps. | 09:08 |
| TwistedLucidity | Gargoyle: I am aware. I still won't use Facebook. | 09:08 |
| Gargoyle | Fair enough, I don't use it either (other than for development). | 09:09 |
| Gargoyle | There's no irony to using it to promote a Linux event though. | 09:10 |
| foobarry | is there a way to show nicklist in irssi only for certain chans? | 09:11 |
| foobarry | its super useful for small chans , sucks for biggues | 09:11 |
| JamesTait | Good morning all! Happy Tuesday, and happy Ada Lovelace Day! 😃 | 09:13 |
| brobostigon | morning boys and girls | 09:27 |
| foobarry | not sure i like these skullcandy headphones | 09:28 |
| foobarry | the EQ seems odd. | 09:28 |
| foobarry | not flat | 09:28 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSfBmlXlqio cheeky one it's from ada lovelace the musical :) | 09:47 |
| davmor2 | JamesTait: and yes I had to look that one up :) I didn't want to spilt it between songs like last time :) | 09:50 |
| danielmx | hi on ubuntu 16.04.1 adding a network printer. i click find printer with the associated ip address. it finds the printer but keeps repeating the ip address until the printing software ceases | 10:52 |
| danielmx | can anyone point me in the right direction | 10:53 |
| davmor2 | danielmx: what manufacturer is the printer by? | 10:55 |
| danielmx | HP | 10:56 |
| danielmx | adding printer work on another linux machine | 10:56 |
| davmor2 | danielmx: hmm normally that works fine | 11:03 |
| davmor2 | danielmx: you can try add the hp-lip app and access it via that | 11:04 |
| danielmx | seems to be fixed i was logged in as guest user | 11:08 |
| danielmx | logged out and logged in as admin and was able to add printer and print test page | 11:09 |
| danielmx | does this mean any user that logs in as guest can now use printer | 11:09 |
| danielmx | or shall i test it to be sure | 11:09 |
| davmor2 | ah yeah you would need to be an admin to enable it | 11:12 |
| danielmx | thanks for your help, very much appreciated | 11:16 |
| Gargoyle | Is there something specific you have to do, or does gnome just not like to remember the position of app windows between runs? | 13:00 |

| daftykins | Gargoyle: the old ctrl+click rule do nothing i take it? not that i know whether that was ever cross-platform or not | 15:58 |
| Gargoyle | daftykins, Nope. | 15:59 |
| Gargoyle | Maybe it's just a Mac thing I had gotten used to. | 16:01 |
| daftykins | guess you didn't have multiple screens there then, i've always heard and seen first hand how Macs can't handle multiple displays :) | 16:03 |
| Gargoyle | Sure do. The last few iterations of OSX have been MUCH improved in that regard. | 16:04 |
| Gargoyle | Separate exposé per screen, etc. | 16:05 |
| daftykins | can't stand the OS myself - and the business practices of the company simply immoral | 16:05 |
| daftykins | yay i gave android pay my first try today, having repaired my phone \o/ waitrose had some self service machines in which supported it :) | 16:05 |
| Gargoyle | 4 years ago, I would have told anyone that it was the best desktop. Unix like sub-system with a well polished UI. But over the last few versions, they have crippled it from a hobbyist/techie perspective in favour of making it more of a consumer product. | 16:07 |
| Gargoyle | Which was the final push to make me switch to linux desktop! :-) | 16:08 |
| daftykins | hmm, i find it gives very little UI feedback in most operations as to anything going on - so for example adding accounts you have to sit and hope awaiting a result | 16:09 |
| daftykins | but the sale of outdated components in fixed configurations that are often not upgradable (or take a while to be reverse engineered) due to the Apple Way(TM) is just unforgivable for me :) | 16:10 |
| Gargoyle | daftykins, Yeah. But that's part of the consumer focus which Apple has always had to some degree. "It just works". None of this nonsense about only having the choice of 1 resolution option! ;-) | 16:15 |
| daftykins | Gargoyle: sounds like you're talking display res? did i misunderstand? | 16:15 |
| Gargoyle | Yeah I am. I have to run the nvidia tweak tool thing every login to change my screen res down a bit (MBP Retina). | 16:17 |
| Gargoyle | I'm not that bothered though. After Christmas I'm going to build a dedicated desktop system. The laptop will become a tool for the 2 days a month I am in the office until it dies. | 16:18 |
| Gargoyle | I'm sure with a bit more playing, I could get xrandr to play ball or something. Haven't really had the time to dig into it too much. | 16:20 |
| daftykins | ah i didn't mean to allude to that, but definitely the scaling settings are a joke versus manual control, and is an example of Apple dumbing things down too much | 16:20 |
| Gargoyle | yup | 16:20 |
| Gargoyle | Speaking of running out of time - must go and get a haircut before I forget what my ears look like! | 16:22 |
| Gargoyle | laters... | 16:22 |
| daftykins | enjoy o/ | 16:22 |
