| zmoylan-pi | i hope it's roomy in there as a few more residents will be trying to get access | 09:29 |
| knightwise | Morning :) | 09:30 |
| * knightwise hopes interwebs are less depressing today | 09:32 | |
| zmoylan-pi | time to break out your emergency terabyte drive of kittens... | 09:33 |
| TwistedLucidity | Yesterday was a bit of a Hobson's choice to be honest. The best candidate got shafted by his own party | 09:33 |
| foobarry | "his" | 09:35 |
| foobarry | oh i see | 09:36 |
| foobarry | from all acounts it seems people didn't have the stomach to vote hillary even though they knew it was potentially a trump enabler by not doing so. i can understand that | 09:36 |
| knightwise | I think Unity Sucks , KDE is better | 09:37 |
| * knightwise desperately tries to change the subject | 09:37 | |
| zmoylan-pi | emacs... the misunderstood os... | 09:38 |

| TwistedLucidity_ | It's not me with the split personality....it appears to be my network :-( | 10:03 |
| zmoylan-pi | so... an evil network... | 10:03 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | Meh, Windows VPN; can't get much worse | 10:07 |

| TwistedLucidity_ | Anyone trying to run VoIP phones over Virgin Media? | 10:35 |
| daftykins | might be better to ask the actual question | 10:39 |
| BigRedS | I have used a VoIP phone over Virgin Media, it didn't take very much tryingf | 10:51 |

| popey | hahaha, Jack Schofield is a massive Windows fanboy. | 11:11 |
| daftykins | i think the persons machine should be upgraded for cheap rather than just 'cure' it with a whole new desktop ;) | 11:14 |
| popey | I didn't read it, I just know jack only writes about microsoft | 11:19 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | SIP services seemed to go down for ~1 hour | 11:30 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | Working now | 11:30 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | Start spamming him: "Dear Jack, What would be the best choice for <insert GNU/Linux distro> desktop? I also want to do some gaming, so a decent GPU is a must." | 11:32 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | In fairness to "Jack", the user seems to have specific software needs that require Windows (i.e. MS Office). | 11:33 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | If it's professional use with plugins; no, LibreOffice will not do it. | 11:33 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | Although in that case, why no just ask Internal IT? | 11:34 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | Whut? "A PC is more likely to crash if it runs out of memory than if it runs out of processing power." | 11:34 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | Oh...wait a minute.... | 11:34 |
| daftykins | TwistedLucidity_: well if gaming was on the cards, Linux wouldn't be the choice | 11:35 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | popey: Is that our regular drive-by Canoncial Castigater? | 11:35 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | daftykins: Every game I want to play runs on GNU/Linux. \o/ | 11:35 |
| daftykins | then you're in the minority | 11:36 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | I'm oppressed! | 11:36 |
| daftykins | wat | 11:36 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | Rather bad semi-bad Blackadder reference | 11:36 |
| popey | TwistedLucidity_: yes | 11:36 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | IIRC more top titles are coming out with GNU/Linux support (on Steam at any rate). | 11:36 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | popey: Ah. Explains much | 11:37 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | Such a shame Steam boxes died a death. | 11:37 |
| popey | I don't have enough time to play all the steam games I have on my linux box :) | 11:38 |
| daftykins | i saw them in shops in the US, just a bit weird really | 11:38 |
| popey | I have 301 games, of which 187 run on Linux. | 11:38 |
| popey | Yeah, I use a steam link, rather than a full steam box | 11:38 |
| popey | Love the steam controllers. | 11:38 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | I really wish I could get the time to play Kerbal. | 11:38 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | And Trine | 11:38 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | And Fex | 11:38 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | And... | 11:39 |
| daftykins | mmm tried one, just prefer an xbox one pad though | 11:39 |
| popey | I never got into KSP | 11:39 |
| popey | yeah, I like the xbox ones, but the steam one is so much better | 11:39 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | I crash. A lot. | 11:39 |
| popey | hah | 11:39 |
| daftykins | well, i don't agree - also there's lacking game support | 11:39 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | It's not at parity, but it's the chicken/egg thing. | 11:40 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | Vulkan could put a cat amongst the pigeons /IF/ it's faster on GNU/Linunx. | 11:40 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | Gamers hold allegance to one thing - FPS. | 11:40 |
| popey | I've found every game I need works with it. | 11:40 |
| daftykins | well it doesn't need to be faster, it just needs to start by being equal and widely available | 11:40 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | It's still in development, no? And you have to wait for Unity et al to provide support too. | 11:41 |
| daftykins | a Linux build you mean? no idea, all i know is i snagged the latest 'Doom' game demo which has Vulkan support in | 11:42 |
| popey | Speaking of Unity.. I have been playing with that, it's fun. | 11:42 |
| popey | made a little multi-player networked game | 11:42 |
| TwistedLucidity_ | Sweet | 11:42 |
| daftykins | i feel that although it enables the masses to make things, it's mostly bloated output that'd run better if done well | 11:43 |
| popey | nice that I can do that on Linux, and spit out Windows, Linux and OSX binaries from it | 11:43 |
| daftykins | that's quite neat | 11:58 |

| popey | again? | 13:49 |
| daftykins | hmm, bit of a mistake to give the choice - as people will always favour the path of least resistance | 13:49 |
| foobarry | github makes it so easy to fix code in real life projects :D | 14:01 |
| foobarry | for a non coder | 14:01 |
| diddledan | the only thing I don't like about github is that you need to use github if you want to contribute to a project on github. e.g. you can't fork to a gitlab instance and create a PR from there back to github | 14:04 |
| foobarry | fair do's though | 14:07 |
| diplo | anyone use restructured text ? | 15:01 |
| diplo | rst format ? | 15:01 |
| diddledan | diplo: I've done some minor tweaks to the .net documentation which is in rst, but I don't really understand the format | 15:02 |
| diplo | heh, I'm ok at it ( wrote a lot! ) but just wondering if I can do code stuff ie :: inside of a list | 15:03 |
| diplo | Can't work it out atm | 15:03 |
| diplo | so basically have 1. lots of text here and follows with an example of code inside the list :: | 15:03 |
| diplo | hahaha found it, love it that everytime I ask for help I work it out! been looking for ages :D | 15:05 |
| diddledan | I find sometimes putting into words what you're struggling with can help you think of better terms to google for | 15:07 |
| diddledan | there's a school of thought that you only really understand something when you are able to describe it to someone else. I think that's a similar idea.. | 15:07 |
| diplo | Well if you come across it in the future, need to double tab the code inside of the list :) | 15:08 |
| diddledan | davmor2: transcoding the movie worked | 16:05 |
| diddledan | I did it with handbrake in the end | 16:05 |
| daftykins | o0 | 16:05 |
| diddledan | daftykins: I had a disc that makemkv wouldn't recognise the main title from | 16:06 |
| diddledan | it was running at approx 113 fps, which I'm assuming is why makemkv wouldn't see it | 16:06 |
| daftykins | XD | 16:08 |
| daftykins | was that not a standard film then? | 16:08 |
| diddledan | which is 29.97 (base ntsc rate) * 2 (to make it ntsc field rate) * 1.9 | 16:08 |
| diddledan | it was a film, but I think the frame rate was on purpose to prevent copying | 16:09 |
| kvd_ | awkward | 16:10 |
| * kvd_ has just rendered a vid but it's massive like a few hundred meg for about 4 minutes | 16:10 | |
| daftykins | smells like 4K | 16:11 |
| * diddledan sniffs | 16:12 | |
| diddledan | pooo | 16:12 |
| diddledan | stinky | 16:12 |
| davmor2 | diddledan: \o/ did the resultant video work though | 16:12 |
| daftykins | aww yeah, ripped a bunch of music for a client again and instead of taking a drive up there, i can just SCP it to his file server direct :D yay 10Mb upload \o/ | 16:12 |
| diddledan | `o/ | 16:13 |
| diddledan | \o/ | 16:13 |
| brobostigon | anyone know where i can get libwww-ssl-dev for 16.04 please. i have hit a deadend. | 16:13 |
| daftykins | ooh your poor arm | 16:13 |
| daftykins | !find libwww-ssl-dev xenial | 16:13 |
| lubotu3 | Found: W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W:, W: (and 17 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libwww-ssl-dev&searchon=names&suite=xenial§ion=all | 16:13 |
| diddledan | wat | 16:14 |
| diddledan | W: and W: and W:??? | 16:14 |
| daftykins | all the W | 16:14 |
| brobostigon | odd. | 16:14 |
| diddledan | brobostigon: what package are you hoping it relates to? | 16:15 |
| diddledan | libwww-perl exists | 16:15 |
| diddledan | afaik all libwww-* packages are perl-related | 16:15 |
| brobostigon | i am trying to compile https://ryzomcore.atlassian.net/wiki/display/RC/Build+Source+on+Linux and said is a dependency | 16:16 |
| diddledan | yeah those docs look very outdated | 16:20 |
| brobostigon | i cant find anyhting newer, hence me trying to work the problem out. | 16:21 |
| diddledan | try without the libwww dependency at all | 16:21 |
| diddledan | i.e. try installing everything else and run the compile to see if it's missing anything | 16:22 |
| brobostigon | good diea, yes. | 16:23 |
| brobostigon | let me try. | 16:23 |
| daftykins | http://dev.ryzom.com/boards/17/topics/1979 | 16:23 |
| daftykins | nevermind that link is useless | 16:24 |
| diddledan | dev.ryzom.com looks to be irrelevant too | 16:25 |
| diddledan | as in the whole site there | 16:26 |
| diddledan | seems they've moved their issue tracker to https://bitbucket.org/ryzom/ryzomcore/issues?status=new&status=open | 16:26 |
| brobostigon | yes. | 16:26 |
| daftykins | a mate used to work at atlassian | 16:27 |
| daftykins | before moving to the dark side permanently and *gasp* being employed by Apple | 16:27 |
| brobostigon | ah, oh dear. | 16:28 |
| daftykins | blech, natwest Guernsey making all account holders fill out CDD (client due diligence) forms | 16:29 |
| diddledan | what're they? | 16:29 |
| daftykins | essentially a 10 page document where you have to tell them all the stuff they already know, like provide your identity, home address, etc | 16:31 |
| daftykins | anti money laundering test exercise basically | 16:31 |
| diddledan | so why don't they do that to people on the mainland? | 16:37 |
| daftykins | well over here we have some of the same banks as you guys, but due to the fact we're a wholly different place with different laws and outside the EU, they have to run separately | 16:38 |
| daftykins | for example, when i went to Uni i went in the nearest NatWest and was told that i could get more info out of the ATM than they could do in-branch, so i had to open an account there to do most things | 16:38 |
| daftykins | was really quite the hassle | 16:38 |
| diddledan | I can imagine | 16:39 |
| daftykins | it's kinda funny though because when NatWest UK enabled android pay a bit ago, it was auto there for me - also i see the online banking system behaves the exact same way, so they're all the same systems i'm sure | 16:39 |
| daftykins | just probably pointing to a different database server, if that | 16:39 |
| diddledan | it all goes to the mothership :-) | 16:40 |
| brobostigon | a led zeppelin saized mothership :) | 16:45 |

| popey | aptanet: hey, about your nextcloud box, are you running the original sd card that came with it? | 20:43 |
