[09:55] hi lordievader, 2 s. better than max verstappen [10:03] Err, what? [10:26] lordievader: im sleep .-. [10:30] * lordievader slides reconnect a cup of coffee [12:38] Howdy folks [12:39] wb BluesKaj :) [12:42] Hi ducasse [12:48] BluesKaj: i'm soon heading out, to look at amps/receivers. need something to play music at home, but very unsure exactly what to get... [12:50] ducasse, you can't go wrong with the less expensive line of higher end brands ...it's the quality you want, not a whole lot o bells and whistles that you'll never need or use. that's my outlook [12:52] BluesKaj: i kind of agree. right now i'm looking at a very discounted (but still a bit expensive) nad receiver, a smaller denon, and another denon mini-thingy with streaming etc. [12:54] yes ducasse, I think you're on the right track and I'm you'll be happy with any of those [12:54] sure [12:55] thanks :) think i'll head to the shop and give them a listen. either way it looks like i'll need to set up ubuntu on my pi :) [12:56] i had a NAD AM/FM tuner and it had the best FM station reception of any that I ever owned [13:04] nad is amazing, but even ~$300 discounted this one is expensive. thinking about whether or not i can justify it, it's a wonderful piece of hardware. [13:04] btw, fm is shutting down here next year. === JanC is now known as Guest103 === JanC_ is now known as JanC [16:38] laters guys ; ) [19:15] Here we go again .. we as I join in what yall are up too :) [19:16] welcome back :) [19:18] \o daftykins, BluesKaj :) [19:19] once more into the fray! [19:19] ^_^ [19:20] hey Bashing-om daftykins [19:20] ducasse: [19:20] not much here, atm just reconfiguring some video addons in kodi [19:20] hey BluesKaj [19:20] Hi EriC^^ , daftykins [19:21] * daftykins waves :D [19:22] thinking of cutting the Sat TV cord , but wife is still afraid to [19:25] our satellite service isn't very expensive, but Bell Canada just irks me ... [19:25] cancel all the packages, beef up the tubes and stream all the things :D [19:26] we just have a very basic HD and SD package [19:27] Looks like the gang is all here - lessin Lotus, that is . [19:27] yeah, the internet service will require changing providers [19:44] any of you use mpd and can recommend clients, both gui and tui? [19:46] newp (: [19:46] welp, guess i'll just start in one end of google :) [19:47] I use kodi for all media, now that i have it properly set up [19:50] there's ncmpcpp or something [19:50] yeah that's it, miraculously [19:51] EriC^^: thanks, i'll look at that [19:52] no problem [19:53] i think that's the one that was mentioned in #i3 recently [19:53] huh. I didn't know #ubuntu-on-windows existed. [19:56] nicomach1s: Some discussion on ubuwin: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2318965 . [20:02] I want to make a PPA that removes all PPAs on a system. [20:03] just for the irony factor. [20:05] that used to be true because the PPA purge util people spoke of in #ubuntu was... in a PPA [20:05] 8D [20:06] which is why I thought about it. [20:13] ppa-purge should be installed by default on desktop systems, imho [20:17] pinkware-purge needs to be in development :) [20:19] pinkware? [20:19] users :) [20:21] plenty alternatives for purging users exist already :) [20:22] never enough! [20:22] we should have an orbiting laser cannon... [20:22] #1 way -> sic daftykins in them. LOL [20:23] in/on* [20:23] LOC? [20:27] we also need - urgently - a device to remotely slap users. i'm sure it would be popular with admins. [20:35] sometimes I just want a mirror to stick in front of users. [20:36] Like, "Look at yourself. Just look at yourself right now." [20:38] ...and the ability to make them comprehend what they just did/asked [20:44] it's ok, trolltrace will resolve all of these problems one day [20:44] :) [20:45] daftykins: btw, bought play-music-thingy! [20:45] oooh [20:45] so it is done? [20:46] yup, happy-happy-joy-joy! [20:46] Denon in the end, or? [20:47] denon. basically just a small amp with a network jack + analog and digital inputs. bought it new for a decent price. [20:48] https://www.tig.gg/l46086-Marantz-Hi-Fi-separates-.php [20:48] £100 for a Marantz NR1504 [20:49] "for steaming music" [20:50] yeah i enjoyed that :D [20:51] i'm very unsure what that would be, and don't want to think about it :) [20:51] no HDCP 2.2 but it's a pretty capable unit [20:53] i just decided to get something nice when i can afford it, at which point i'll relegate this to a bedroom system. it actually sounds much better than i thought it would, so i'm happy. [20:54] \o/ [20:54] it'll be interesting to see what the new year brings [20:55] yup :) so far i'm streaming flac over dlna, which works well. i'll try optical from rpi+usb soundcard tomorrow, too late now. [20:56] yep can't have all the fun at once! [20:56] gotta ration it out [20:58] there are cables _everywhere_ now, i should probably do something about that :) === lordievader is now known as Guest12557 === Guest12557 is now known as lordievader === EriC^ is now known as EriC^^
