JamesTaitIt refers to Mulligan as in the golfing term. 😉10:57
daftykinsah see i had a feeling it was from a sport, but had no idea which!10:57
diddledanhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carey_Mulligan10:57
JamesTaitOne I'm quite familiar with, as it turns out: roughly "Oops, that was rubbish, let me try again!"10:57
* diddledan anticipates the davmor2 tune of the day for this one10:57
* popey notes davmor2 is currently having lunch10:58
daftykinsthis channel is starting to feel like a BBC Radio 2 program10:58

diddledanpopey: don't you get priority for being the amazeballs popey?10:59
popey30 flights since "records began"10:59
popeyin december 200810:59
diddledanI wonder how many in pre-history11:00
daftykinsthere we go, cannon just fired off the castle - it's mid-day :D11:00
popeyquite a few, used to fly to copenhagen every week, sunday to thursday, but that was in 1997-199811:00
diddledandaftykins: I want a castle and cannon for my clock!11:00
daftykinsyou can buy the place next to mine, guy wants to sell it ;)11:00
zmoylan-pithere used to be a site castles for sale... you'd have to supply the cannon11:01
daftykinsjust beware the ones that come with a King already installed11:01
zmoylan-piking infestations are the worst...11:01
zmoylan-piyou go to sit down in your comfy chair and it's always occupied11:02
popeyhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/23338138/11:02
popeyall the flights I've done for 8 years11:02
popeyoften feels like I've flown more, but seems not11:03
daftykinsoof the LA one must've been a killer if direct11:03
zmoylan-piyou hope that if someone joins all the dots of locations that it spells out something rude if viewed from some angle? :-)11:03
foobarryi have a bot that returns results of commands to a channel, but is it possible to get the bot to check a folder for existence of a file every 15mins?11:04
popeyyeah, direct to LA was okay11:04
popeyjust watched a load of films and got drunk11:04
foobarryor do i need hooks like the git uses11:04
SeekerI've done Heathrow -> LA direct before. It's not that bad, just boring11:05
Seekerbut then again, I didn't get drunk11:05
popeygot here in .nl via LCY which I've never flown out of before, was surprisingly pleasant11:05
popeywould fly again11:05
daftykinsah i always used to see rates from local airlines to London City, looked like it could be worth a try sometime11:05
daftykinsthere's something about them being one of those quiet airports that don't announce things, though i think Guernseys is that way too11:06
popeyyeah, for me it wasn't bad to get to either, FNN -> WAT -> Canning Town (tube) -> LCY (DLR)11:06
popeynice views on the way in and out too11:06
popeyif you like buildings and stuff11:06

SeekerI need to find a decent 3-monitor stand. Then to buy a 27" 4k monitor.13:17
daftykinsand enjoy display scaling to actually make use of it properly, yeah no thanks :P13:18
zmoylan-pinah, you buy the 27" 4k monitor, run it at 800x600 256 colours and call in technicans just to make them cry :-P13:19
knightwiseLOL13:19
knightwiseI love the dell monitors for their great stands13:19
knightwise4K is a little bit too crazy for me13:20
dwatkinsthere's enough room for a USB hub and a Raspberry Pi13:20
