| daftykins | not sure if i should play it safe and check my line sync before i commit to upgrading :> | 01:20 |
| daftykins | only getting 50 of the 60 would be a shame, but i'd rather the upload | 01:20 |

| foobarry | confession:i don't like clicky keyboards. | 10:10 |
| foobarry | noise pollution | 10:10 |
| arsen | :< | 10:15 |
| arsen | i wish they had the click feel but not the noise. | 10:15 |
| arsen | still, i have one at work and one at home, so i'm that guy. | 10:15 |
| foobarry | what you do in your own home is ok | 10:16 |
| diddledan | but don't tell us about it in a public channel ;-) | 10:17 |
| diddledan | "I'll have none of your pre-versions here meladdo!" | 10:17 |
| diddledan | that's a hybrid quote from multiple sources that I forget | 10:18 |
| diddledan | meladdo is obviously rimmer | 10:18 |
| diddledan | but the rest I think is a misquote from rising damp? | 10:18 |
| foobarry | vegans, arch users, clicky keyboards, cold brew coffee, | 10:19 |
| diddledan | cold coffee?! | 10:19 |
| diddledan | that's all kinds of wrong! | 10:19 |
| foobarry | hipsters | 10:19 |
| foobarry | tis "different" so its better | 10:20 |
| diddledan | "I like my coffee how I like my men" | 10:20 |
| foobarry | https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2016/oct/29/nitro-cold-brews-energise-coffee-shops | 10:21 |
| foobarry | hah the guardian shoudl be on that list too | 10:21 |
| diddledan | http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-37800623?ocid=socialflow_twitter | 10:39 |
| diddledan | what's the betting that network rail embed the details of the journey onto the card rather than an ID number which would get matched to the database | 10:40 |
| diddledan | oic, the magstrip is dead on them, but staff still let you through | 10:44 |
| TwistedLucidity | Simple enough the thwart I'd have thought. Print a bar/qr-code onto the ticket that duplicates the mag. Staff can just scan that. | 11:02 |
| TwistedLucidity | Or is just a cryto-sig to prove the ticket is genuine. | 11:03 |
| TwistedLucidity | Take the start, destination; GPG; bish-bash-bosh; job's a good 'un. | 11:03 |
| TwistedLucidity | Can I have my millions foe the government contract, please? | 11:03 |
| === zmoylan-1i is now known as zmoylan-pi | ||
| zmoylan-pi | no millions for TwistedLucidity, you don't wear the right school tie... | 12:55 |
| foobarry | talktalk, my broadband provider also offer a free sim card, similar to what i curretly get from giffgaff | 13:47 |
| foobarry | anyone tried it? | 13:47 |
| foobarry | could save me in the region of Ā£90 per year | 13:47 |
| diddledan | hah, I just found a 64MB Sony Memorystick | 13:50 |
| diddledan | that was another attempt by sony to proprietarise (that's a real word, honest, guv') flash memory | 13:51 |
| foobarry | is it purple | 13:52 |
| diddledan | yup | 13:52 |
| foobarry | lilac | 13:52 |
| foobarry | mauve | 13:52 |
| foobarry | ugh | 13:52 |
| zmoylan-pi | appeals to female users... marketing said so... | 13:59 |
| popey | My first digital camera was one of those sony ones with memory sticks... http://www.steves-digicams.com/f55.html | 14:01 |
| popey | a whole 2.6MP | 14:02 |
| popey | maybe 3.3, something like that | 14:03 |
| zmoylan-pi | as much as i dislike propietary standards i did hear of memory sticks surviving washing machines and other hazards that killed lesser memory storage devices | 14:03 |
| popey | the lens flipped over so you could take "selfies" :) | 14:03 |
| foobarry | my mum had her credit card pwned. a replacement sent, and the new one pwned | 14:04 |
| popey | http://imgur.com/a/Bd0Ts selfie I took 15 years ago on a Sony Cybershot :) | 14:05 |
| zmoylan-pi | that was quick service by the thieves... if only we could make them work in the service industry... | 14:05 |
| foobarry | she said she only entered it on paypal and amazon and shopping at sainsbury, and petrol at sainsbury | 14:06 |
| zmoylan-pi | and not typed the number into the friendly popup asking 'is your credit card number secure?' :-P | 14:07 |
| foobarry | i asked her, allegedly no | 14:07 |
| foobarry | and no indian men calling from mikrozoft | 14:08 |
| zmoylan-pi | is it new shiny card with skimmable rfid chip? | 14:08 |
| diddledan | when do the merry-cans vote? | 14:14 |
| diddledan | the 8th according to teh googs | 14:16 |
| diddledan | so next... tuesday | 14:17 |
| diddledan | (I had to look it up :-P) | 14:17 |
| diddledan | talk about loaded question: https://twitter.com/omgubuntu/status/793094547295305728 | 14:17 |
| foobarry | can amazon prime member borrow kindle books for free? | 14:19 |
| foobarry | "A Prime membership includes over a million ebooks at no additional cost" | 14:19 |
| foobarry | can't find the ability though | 14:19 |
| foobarry | Books can only be borrowed and read on Kindle devices (works with all Kindle generations). ...ah | 14:27 |
| diplo | This is why I try to only buy non drm'd books | 14:42 |
| diplo | Or deDRM them once I have bought them | 14:43 |
| foobarry | this is borrowing as part of prime | 14:49 |
| diplo | I expect then it's under the ebook app / library bit, I can look in a bit | 14:50 |
| diddledan | has anyone tried the re-release of KDE1? | 14:53 |
| popey | i can't see it in the kindle app | 14:54 |
| popey | doesn't this require Kindle Unlimited? | 14:56 |
| diplo | May do, I remember reading about it now | 14:58 |
| diplo | Slight price increase on prime, same as the music probably, get a million tracks on prime, pay Ā£3.99 extra and you get 10 million | 14:58 |
| Azelphur | Managed to get my GPD Win all happy and running Linux properly, http://n.Ē£.cc/nextcloud/index.php/s/XlXkAq0XHiaaBKz :) | 15:14 |
| Azelphur | 5.5" laptop is fun :) | 15:15 |
| foobarry | popey, click your amazon prime icon at top of amazon page | 15:15 |
| foobarry | and it shows what you should get | 15:15 |
| foobarry | its not kindle unlimited but lets you check out 1 book per month | 15:15 |
| foobarry | also, i recommend the film "the double" by richard aoyade | 15:16 |
| foobarry | free on prime | 15:16 |

| daftykins | none of my clients have been daft enough so far, touch wood... | 18:08 |

| diddledan | aye. | 18:12 |
| popey | he brought it round sheepishly, "help!" | 18:12 |
| popey | managed to fix it with extreme prejudice | 18:13 |
| popey | also, informed him that downloading music from limewire wasn't a good plan | 18:13 |
| daftykins | does that mean wiping it for ubuntu? ;) | 18:13 |
| MartijnVdS | even my dad had some malware yesterday.. he'd installed a Chrome extension promising to re-enable Java support | 18:13 |

| foobarry | still wiating for a yodel delivery. their tracking is garbage | 18:15 |
| diddledan | foobarry: it'll never arrive! | 18:16 |
| foobarry | on the contrary i could follow mohammed in his DPD van earlier | 18:16 |
| foobarry | amazon delivery, supposed to arrive today on prime | 18:16 |

| zmoylan-pi | the welding gear and steel toe capped boots aisle? for repairing pcs... :-) | 18:48 |
| foobarry | staring out of the window for a delivery on trick or treat night is a bit awkward | 18:57 |
| popey | foobarry: did they mistake you for a zombie? | 19:01 |

| Azelphur | Ubuntu 14.04 seems to have a /lib/systemd/system, but it doesn't have systemd, why does this folder exist? is there a way to make use of systemd init scripts in 14.04? | 19:02 |
| popey | 14.04 does use bits of systemd | 19:07 |
| popey | just not as pid 1 | 19:07 |
| popey | (like it does in 16.04) | 19:07 |
| Azelphur | I see, can I launch a systemd script in 14.04 somehow? | 19:08 |
| Azelphur | it seems to lack systemctl | 19:08 |
| * daftykins wonders why you would fight it | 19:09 | |
| foobarry | most deliveries are done by work from home guys out of the back of their car nowadays | 19:09 |
| foobarry | or is that just hermes | 19:09 |
| popey | amazon own people do that too | 19:09 |
| foobarry | fruitlessly tweeting the yodellers | 19:09 |
| foobarry | they are asking for irrelvant info | 19:10 |
| daftykins | strangely their stuff is carried by a local courier who handles UPS stuff too | 19:10 |
| foobarry | gave full address and tracking number. why they asking for my name | 19:10 |
| daftykins | i had a UPS card for my missed nespresso coffee capsules delivery | 19:10 |
| daftykins | it has all the phone numbers crossed out and a Guernsey one written in biro :D | 19:10 |

| popey | you're getting an entire piano delivered by someone out of the back of his ford mondeo estate? | 19:16 |
| foobarry | bought on amazon but delivered by yodel | 19:16 |
| foobarry | i expect it to be attached to his roof | 19:16 |
| foobarry | the guy was so confused. i dashed out and saw a tiny package and was crestfallen | 19:16 |
| daftykins | a courier van stopped outside my house once, i went to the front door and opened it waiting "i'm not here for you!" he shouted :( | 19:17 |

| popey | did they dd the internal (80GB) disk to it? | 20:47 |
| popey | leaving the rest unallocated? | 20:47 |
| daftykins | no, the contents showing on the mac is all her user data, but just files, no directories | 20:47 |

| penguin42 | daftykins: Something like a mismatched GPT and DOS partitioning? | 20:49 |
| daftykins | claims to be FAT32, yet if Windows doesn't read it, it must be using some completely weird cluster size or some such to be invisible | 20:49 |
| daftykins | i'm gonna run this one by parted or something yeah, seriously weird | 20:50 |
| daftykins | partition table: loop | 20:56 |
| daftykins | O_O | 20:56 |
| daftykins | now ubuntu shows the files *and* folders | 20:58 |
| daftykins | must be some weird result of whatever which wrote this as FAT32 despite the capacity | 21:00 |
| daftykins | ok nope win7 reads it fine, it's just win10 then :P | 21:05 |
| diddledan | weird | 21:07 |
| diddledan | win10 shouldn't see it any diff, I'd have thunked. I guess they broke something | 21:08 |
| daftykins | yeah! just confirmed on my laptop which runs 10 too, no go there either | 21:09 |
| diddledan | humings is a great series | 22:46 |
| daftykins | o0 | 22:47 |
| diddledan | daftykins: channel 4 | 23:03 |
| diddledan | second season started yesterday | 23:03 |
| daftykins | ah, no broadcast TV here, chief | 23:04 |
| diddledan | I didn't watch it on broadcast :-p | 23:04 |
| diddledan | I really don't understand the benefit of using a browser other than safari on an iThingie. Mozilla just emailed me to let me know users love firefox on iOS. it doesn't make sense to me 'cos all third-party browsers are just a wrapper around the webview provided by the OS | 23:06 |
| * daftykins ponders | 23:06 | |
| daftykins | actually i suppose ITV and channel 4 on-demand services are free, right? since they're ad supported | 23:06 |
| diddledan | yup | 23:06 |
| daftykins | last time i looked channel 4's only gave really bad SD content | 23:07 |
| diddledan | yeah they're still only SD on all4 (the name of ch4's OD) | 23:07 |
| diddledan | that's AFAIK | 23:07 |
| daftykins | i've been a good boy since the rule change and not even touched anything iPlayer | 23:08 |
| diddledan | what do the rules say for you islanders in regards to the beeb? | 23:08 |
| daftykins | nothing new to the mainland, gotta hold a TV license | 23:09 |
| daftykins | er nothing different, even | 23:09 |
| diddledan | bah | 23:09 |
| daftykins | well i know they have no way of knowing, but i'm just not fussed either way | 23:09 |
| diddledan | that means there's no benefit to being foreigners?! well that's sucky | 23:09 |
| diddledan | I thought the whole point of you lot was to make a mockery of our financial rules!! | 23:11 |
| diddledan | I want my money back! | 23:11 |
| m0nkey_ | Just got back from Trick or Treating. We now have enough candy to last us until January next year. | 23:12 |
| diddledan | or tomorrow morning if HĆ©lene has her way | 23:13 |
| m0nkey_ | She's not big on candy. She'll have a couple and that'll be enough for a day or two. | 23:13 |
| daftykins | diddledan: me too, i think they lost the memo :( | 23:13 |
| diddledan | heh | 23:13 |
| m0nkey_ | But my youngest, yes.. if she had her way, it'll last less than 48 hours. | 23:14 |
| diddledan | :-p good girl! | 23:14 |
| daftykins | could be a good lesson to permit it ;) | 23:14 |
| daftykins | that dashcam video on the BBC news site of the guy that killed a mother and 3 kids due to looking down at his phone = :/ | 23:16 |
| m0nkey_ | daftykins, very sad. | 23:16 |
| m0nkey_ | However, I hope more people install these dashcams | 23:17 |
| m0nkey_ | I have one | 23:17 |
| m0nkey_ | I had one idiot swerve into me just the other day | 23:17 |
| daftykins | oh, proper damage? | 23:17 |
| m0nkey_ | No, I managed to move out of the way just in time. | 23:18 |
| m0nkey_ | He missed me by an inch | 23:18 |
| m0nkey_ | Had the kids in the car with me at the time | 23:18 |
| daftykins | guy in another channel has kubuntu 16.10 on an acer laptop with intel core 3 series (ivybridge) graphics and tab rendering/update issues in chrome apparently btw | 23:18 |
| daftykins | in case anyone has encountered this | 23:18 |
| daftykins | seems wierd that on some boots he'll have 'modeset' referred to as the active driver in the Xorg log and other times intel | 23:18 |
| diddledan | lol: https://twitter.com/Brett_Shavers/status/793231982406664192 | 23:24 |
| daftykins | wow wix.com in trouble over GPL contravention | 23:25 |
| diddledan | yup | 23:26 |
| diddledan | against WordPress | 23:26 |
| daftykins | ctrl+F4 o0 | 23:26 |
| m0nkey_ | It's not like WP has ever stolen code before. | 23:27 |
| diddledan | if you read about it on theregister, then they might have got the story from me 'cos I emailed their tips address about it :-) | 23:28 |
| daftykins | no wai | 23:28 |
| daftykins | i once mailed in a tip, got asked for a clarification on one point, then ignored | 23:29 |
| daftykins | totally wasn't "So, you're supreme ruler of Guernsey?" | 23:29 |
| m0nkey_ | I remember WP when it didn't have a password reset function. I wrote it and submitted it. The code was accepted for the next release, I was never credited. So $%^& wordpress. | 23:30 |
| daftykins | perhaps you didn't outline your terms! | 23:34 |
| daftykins | time for bed, g'night \o | 23:34 |
| diddledan | they're MUCH better at giving credit | 23:34 |
| diddledan | now** | 23:35 |
| m0nkey_ | To give you an idea when I contributed, I hadn't even met my wife yet. | 23:39 |
| m0nkey_ | Heck, I still remember when it was forked from b2 | 23:42 |
| ali1234 | huh, so wix actually is based on wordpress? | 23:57 |
| diddledan | ali1234: no, it's their mobile app that is in question | 23:58 |
| ali1234 | oh, okay | 23:58 |
