[10:36] mornin [10:40] morning [13:43] Huh, seems my city as of today is now a metropolis. [13:45] your commute is now upgraded from pleasent trip to dystopian nightmare... [13:52] http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/quebec-proposes-greater-autonomy-grants-metropolis-status-for-montreal-1.3888329 [13:52] It was already a nightmare [13:55] can i transfer a domain to someone who's email address is @ that domain? [14:01] Yes [14:02] During the transfer you can tell the new registrar to keep the existing DNS [14:17] i dont want to change the registrar [14:17] i want to change the owner [14:18] example: i own foo.com [14:18] i create a new user account at my registrar with email address stupiduser@foo.com [14:18] then i transfer ownership of foo.com to stupiduser [14:19] of course stupiduser is just me, but with a different email and postal address [14:26] прив всем [14:26] кто-нить знает, чем в лине можно SSD прогнать на востановление с HFS+ разделом? [14:26] Mak_Trefa: uk = United Kingdom [14:27] I'm sure there used to be a factoid about that [14:27] !ukraine [14:27] !uk [14:27] Join us for a discussion using the Queen's English in #ubuntu-uk [14:27] hiberno english also acceptible :-) [14:27] !ua [14:28] sorry [14:28] net problemo [14:28] !ru [14:28] Пожалуйста наберите /join #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке. | Pozhalujsta naberite /join #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke.

Так [14:31] Це не український канал [14:32] k, back to work for m e [14:33] *me [15:13] hi [15:14] SebthreeBQM10HD: hi [15:18] davmor2, right that's me happy for now :) someone around here wanted to buy a new cd player for some rason, but bought a buetooth boombox . so that's a cd player, a radio, and all with a nice pair of spakers, and yes the bluetooth. so listening to music from tablet on it now :) [17:27] lol @ alexa hijacking in ubuntu podcast to send tweets saying how great the ubuntu podcast is :-p [17:33] god this is bad: https://twitter.com/ericlaw/status/807276698559516677 [17:33] from a gov website no less! [17:34] well with all the other spying on your actions online, what's a few more criminals? [17:38] oof, 5 mile ride severely kicked my posterior today [17:39] Packard Hell still exist! https://www.dropbox.com/s/9uydhwpfxzg07yf/IMG_20161209_134411.jpg?dl=0 [17:40] yeesh [17:40] https://www.dropbox.com/s/zwht3jkyo84wfwh/IMG_20161209_134422.jpg?dl=0 [17:40] crazy SFF style unit there [17:41] first pc i got my brother was a packard bell... cheap, solid and shipped with all the software and hardware he'd ever neeed [17:42] win 3.11 and solitaire? :D [17:42] win me :-D x2 [17:42] wow you must really not have got on! [17:43] it gave no grief till he started using it online in a location where his phone line was split with a neightbour so struggled to get 28k [17:44] oof [17:45] i was really jealous of the lady today, she's practically opposite the parish exchange, so her VDSL line syncs at 82Mb down and 32Mb up [17:45] at least with me as it was win 9x you could rip put every virus with just a boot disk... when i upgraded it to win2000 to make a new printer work it got a lot harder to keep going [17:45] that's when he got a mac [17:45] eww. hope you insult that at every opportunity [17:46] at 28k the 5mb download twice a week of av updates got cancelled constantly [17:46] the mac wasn't infected every week needing a reinstall from scratch [17:47] nor would a Windows machine in the right hands, but so it goes. [17:47] must've been a fan of the naughty side of the tubes... [17:47] that's when he began his evil plan to get broadband... he rang them once a month till it was installed.... just over a year iirc... he can be _very_ persistent [17:47] same brother that had the words with the supermarket exit driver fella? :) [17:48] yup [17:48] :D [17:48] he has a gift.... [17:52] so cure: https://anki.com/en-us/cozmo [17:52] cute* [18:32] Guys, I need a new phone. I've decided to use some of my savings so I'm not being a cheap bastard (Like I was being the other day) .. suggestions? [18:32] XD [18:33] you sure? they tend to be crap that is redundant in a couple of years so it might make more sense going with those basic (presumed telco contract) offers [18:33] * zmoylan-pi temples fingers and prepares pure evil suggestion of a nokia 3310 >:-) [18:35] Now I can look at the S7, iPhone 7 and other similar devices. [18:35] Or the Google Pixel [18:36] and the OnePlus 3T [18:38] m0nkey_: the moto G gets good reviews for a budget device - for top-end I like my iPhone 7 :-p [18:38] diddledan: you disappoint me! [18:38] daftykins: baa [18:38] I got to admit. I sort of like the iPhone [18:38] how can you do dev and be ok with their evil moves? [18:38] daftykins: because baa [18:39] :-p [18:39] what are the sheep's feelings on the matter? [18:39] he has no choice, I cornered him [18:39] any iphone as long as it's white [18:39] I'm somewhat intrigued by the daydream vr thingy but don't think I'd use it [18:40] i've just been handed a brand-spankin' Dell XPS 13 9360, the kaby lake edition (intel i5 gen 7) [18:40] *drool* [18:40] Thing is, an iPhone tends to just work. Pretty much any accessory will. [18:40] Also, it has the added bonus of being compatible with my car head unit. [18:41] and you use how many? [18:41] I just a few bluetooth thingies [18:41] just don't forget to subtract headphones from that list sans-adapter ;) [18:41] it just works, as long as you do things the apple way and are prepared to keep following their lead [18:41] adapter comes in the box [18:41] Heh, headphone are already bluetooth. I couldn't give a m0nkey_ about not having a headphone jack. [18:42] plus they give you a pair of lightning headphones too [18:42] i believe people lose the adapter quite easily [18:42] * m0nkey_ uses his big ass Bluetooth headphones [18:42] i suppose folk who don't care for quality use the stock ones [18:42] >.< [18:42] Which are quite warm during the brisk Canadian winter days [18:43] * zmoylan-pi also uses big headphones on cold days to keep my ears warm [18:43] well, seems that despite you asking your mind is already made up! [18:43] :) [18:45] the need for real headphones over bt might only be a valid argument if there is good fm radio available in canada [18:47] well i would personally never even consider wireless tech for such a job [18:47] did anyone spot this link I mentioned in the darkest hours of the night: https://github.com/plasma-umass/browsix [18:49] one weird thing i have had happen with bt is that sometimes in aldi and lidl they tried to connect to their staff headset intercom thingy [18:50] "would zmoylan-phone please come to customer service for a swift clout 'round the ear 'ole" [18:52] i got a right dirty look from the supermarket checkout lady out in the furthest parish today, must've been disapproving of my coming from 'so far' away :) [18:53] sort of League of Gentlemen moment [18:53] just as long as you get out of there before sunset... [18:54] oh i did, no bike lights on me so i had to hurry away! [18:54] could've gone to the cinema had i had them on me - quite keen to see The Arrival but i see they've stopped showing it already :| [18:54] cycling in winter without lights... [18:55] yeah, i got home in light hours still so it was fine [18:55] i was quite unlucky because the batteries i had in one had leaked the white goodness and ruined the whole unit i discovered the other day [18:56] i haven't had alkaline batteries leak in years.. [18:56] i've had a batch of 4 Duracell all do it just in the last month :( [18:56] check that they are genuine duracells? [18:57] finished the pack now [18:57] one of the main reason i bought them was they guaranteed no leaks [18:57] those energizer adverts are misleading: how many zinc batteries do you see in the shops at all these days let alone buy? [18:57] when i used them in psion and palm it was super important to me [18:57] "we last much longer than a battery you can't buy" [18:58] maybe back in the day they advertised homo-sapiens over neanderthals in the same way [18:59] "homo sapiens have much more brainpower than the leading homo erectus" [18:59] 20% usage in uk... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc%E2%80%93carbon_battery#History [19:03] I think I've decided. [19:03] windows phone \o/ [19:03] Baaah [19:04] oh he's sheeping it, \o/ for apple! [19:04] :-p [19:04] >:) [19:04] no love for blackberry [19:04] [19:04] the DTEK-60 is interesting [19:06] the whaaa? [19:06] m0nkey_: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00JBBM92G/ref=s9_zgift_hd_bw_b35SnbL_g23_i3?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_s=merchandised-search-6&pf_rd_r=NG0294FZ1GPTA3XEAWD0&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=2a4b8882-fc45-557f-ab4e-13303a876d88&pf_rd_i=2829144031 [19:07] eww @ amazon links [19:07] Couple of reasons for iSheep. 1) Car, plug-in and go. Works seamlessly with the head unit. 2) Don't use Gmail, I use plain IMAP hosted by FastMail, they support push on the iDevice. 3) Couldn't give a hoot about the lack of headphone jack. I use bluetooth headphones. :) [19:07] well you only need up to the / before 'ref=' :) [19:07] diddledan, awesome. [19:09] i suppose on the plus side you fit even better as new-shauno now, m0nkey_ ;D [19:09] True [19:09] Until the day I rage quit. [19:09] it's ok, we'll reign in zmoylan-pi :> [19:10] you're all lucky that I'm never rage quitting! [19:10] or should that be "fated" [19:12] nobody else will take you 8D [19:12] well that's true [19:16] I gotta go shovel the snow. Back later. [19:17] he's just stepping outside, he may be some time... [19:17] If I'm not back in 20 minutes. Just wait longer. [19:18] * daftykins sets the clock [19:18] i'll make it 32 minutes, 'cause that's how long until the cylons catch up again [19:18] * zmoylan-pi allows for 5 minutes moose tax [19:18] daftykins: I was thinking exactly the same [19:18] 8D [19:49] http://darkpatterns.org/ [19:50] this one is sky: http://darkpatterns.org/skys-marketing-preferences-puzzle/ [19:51] morning [19:52] o/ [19:52] daftykins: I love that reference to the clock [19:52] reminds me i could probably rewatch BSG-reboot [19:53] :D i was only reminded of it from snagging season 1 in bluray and skipping through the first episode a bit [19:53] * knightwise needs to setup his linux laptop for the wife tonight [19:53] gonna borrow her macbookpro for the weekend [19:53] D: [19:53] So wifewife is going to be using the xps13 with elementary [19:54] * davmor2 setups up mr blobby, agadoo, pineapple pen, stutter rap, shut up your face, chicken song and startreking on a loop that only stops when diddledan rage quits, muhahahahahahahahahahaha I know how to be evil [19:54] Star Trekking ! [19:54] Mr blobby rules [19:54] across the universe [19:54] * knightwise misses noels house party [19:54] knightwise: i'm setting up a brand new XPS 13 9360 tonight :) [19:55] Wicked [19:55] knightwise: yeah but come on did you hear the song [19:55] touchscreen version .? [19:55] the blobby song ? [19:55] * knightwise has to youtube that [19:55] i said to a client that he could save upwards of £300 for a 9350 off the Dell Outlet, but he was impatient so brand new 9360 it was - £916 delivered here in tax free lands [19:55] if you want good scifi get babylon 5 [19:55] daftykins: and now you have to put vista on it [19:55] yeah , bab5 is also great [19:56] quick everyone hide the knives, ropes and shoelaces while knightwise listens to mr blobby on youtube [19:56] nah not touch screen, i5/8GB/256GB/FHD model - best for battery life [19:56] me also loves space1999 [19:56] I have the same versiond [19:56] season 1 or 2? [19:56] Season 1 [19:56] season 1 is better [19:57] true, Anderson quit after season 1 , because the americans wanted more cheap spacemonsters [19:57] and the design of the eagle is still one of the best spaceships ever to make it to tv [19:57] Agreed [19:58] basically its the space version of a ford transit [19:58] durable, hardworking and utilitarian [19:58] and so good it made it into red dwarf... [19:58] Now there is a show I never got [19:59] babylon 5 is probably the best of 90s scifi [19:59] red dwarf is awesome, at least up till season 6 [19:59] split between ds9 and babylon 5 [19:59] Time? [19:59] time! [20:00] 19:17 - 19:59 = 42 minutes [20:00] just watched all seasons of ds9 again [20:00] 43 minutes... [20:00] Really? [20:00] is DS9 on netfix yet? [20:00] yep [20:00] diddledan, yes it is. [20:00] knightwise: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNkgDJpcuwU [20:01] davmor2: you complete bar steward! [20:01] Well, I did do the extra scrape all the icy crap, move the car to clear the snow underneath. [20:01] that's evil! [20:01] Oh man thats bad [20:01] Running linux on my chromebook and i'm using the opera vpn client to watch that video :) [20:02] Now thats evil ;à [20:02] diddledan: you're welcome I'll make you rage quit I'm that evil muhahahahahaha [20:02] :-p [20:03] * davmor2 hugs diddledan [20:03] \o/ [20:03] brb, walking home [20:03] anyway guys and gals have a wonderful weekend [20:03] o/ [20:03] roger, wilco [20:03] over, dunne [20:04] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BrRdy4BAYp0 [20:05] Technically, Dunn was under Oveur and I was under Dunn. [20:05] So, you see, both Dunn and I were under Oveur, even though I was under Dunn. [20:06] love those movies [20:18] ugh, trying to run portsnap on my bsd box, the mirror is so damn slow [20:20] have i mentioned how great Apple software is on Windows, lately? [20:20] right now you need to manually run Apple Software Update, to update Apple Software Update, so it can get the latest Apple Software Update, so then you can update iTunes! [20:20] \o/ [20:21] daftykins: iTunes on my insiders build is b0rked [20:21] it starts fine but about a minute after opening it crashes [20:22] oh no that's normal ;) [20:22] :-p [20:23] not looking forward to being asked how to use this Dell :( [20:23] it's one of *those* types of clients :P [20:24] i HATE itunes [20:25] good man! [20:25] sometimes i run into it on folks' machines [20:25] i think Apple do it on purpose, it's either Quicktime or iTunes that actually overtook Java as the most exploited-when-unpatched program on Windows boxes [20:27] not many folk use java these days. it seems to only be used by android devs and anyone running an ide like eclipse or jetbrains thingies [20:27] there's nothing written in java that targets the consumer afaict these days [20:28] didn't openoffice install it typically? i keep finding it on some folks machines that really shouldn't need it and that seemed to be the only commonality [20:29] yeah, there's some bits of oo/libre office suites that use it but I don't think it's a hard dependency [20:29] at least not anymore [20:31] https://www.dropbox.com/s/2vzx2q4vo1s1563/IMG-20161209-WA0005.jpg?dl=0 [20:31] bikes [20:31] lots of bikes [20:31] my friend is doing a sorta charity thing with work where they manage and distribute a tonne o' bikes for school kids :> [20:31] aah [20:39] f [20:55] my wife is watching the worst thing i've ever seen [20:56] hairspray live show itv2. truly vomitous [20:56] foobarry, what's that? mght be what I am watching [20:56] foobarry, yep bingo same here, but that's since I got a litle 15 year old brother, who well he's got the show host to play in Aprl ro so [20:57] foobarry, where I live about all it's good for or kind of is amature drama groups, some rubbish pubs, schools and a lesiure centre [20:57] and some places kind of ok to walk a dog [20:57] ouch! [20:58] i feel ill [20:58] so glad i don't have a significant other who likes crap on TV [20:58] my cat can't even operate the remote! 8D [20:58] its truly shocking [20:58] foobarry, why's that? [20:59] it's my kryptonite [20:59] i cannot stand musicals [20:59] and this is the epitome of terrible tv [21:00] daftykins, heh I been trying to get some girl to like me online, she likes stuff like that [21:00] * brobostigon also gets to endure crap tv, ie soaps with his fiance, the things a man has to cope with for love. right? [21:00] i have such low tolerance for such drivel [21:00] foobarry, you typical guy you h eh [21:00] except i don't like action cheese that she likes [21:00] foobarry: did you escape into another room or are you in front of it now the wifi is behaving? ;) [21:00] like avengers, star trek etc [21:00] brobostigon, h eh :) [21:01] i prefer stuff with a story [21:01] there's always dr. horribles sing along blog... :-) [21:01] SebthreeBQM10HD: :) [21:02] foobarry, well where I live as I put above.... [21:05] i truly think 3DTVs missed out on a trick there... [21:05] ignore the 3D part, but have the specs be capable of tuning into one of two 2D programs based on the shutters, then headphones for everyone - yay two programs for one TV \o/ [21:06] ST:VOY-vr'3d, :) [21:06] the borg, in v3-3d, eeek [21:07] vr* [21:10] brobostigon, so which soaps you like :D ? [21:10] none. [21:10] h eh [21:10] what she make you watch then :D ? [21:11] emmerdale, eastenders, doctors, coronation street. [21:12] and not a sap [21:12] that's my hell right there [21:12] sap [21:12] bu the x facter to? [21:12] found a nit in my hair [21:12] * brobostigon agrees with daftykins wholeheartedly. [21:13] and britains got talent, again not soap, bu that to? [21:14] huzzah, dr. horribles sing along blog is on youtube... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Of9kHpCv1ts [21:15] think i'm due a lifetime of checking for nits while my kids are in school [21:16] time to go nuclear on foobarry's scalp [21:16] you might be uninvited from the #ubuntu-uk Christmas party now though ;) [21:16] or napalm... [21:17] he can guide santas sled to a safe landing with a napalm head... [21:18] is it a virtual party? [21:18] so far, yep ;) [21:18] daftykins is queen santa [21:18] m0nkey_: oh don't forget to avoid the intel radio chips in the iPhones, they perform slowly [22:26] alrighty i'm falling asleep already, g'night all \o [22:27] o/
