foobarryhad a bad cold for 9 days. back at work because thought that i should probably go, but feeling crap09:45
foobarrywondering if there are non antibiotic remedies for curing sinus infections09:46
evildespotPretty much everything we have, even vitamin supplements where they do add value, are prophylactic rather than remedial09:48
evildespotOnce you've caught a cold, you're mostly stuck with the thing09:50

czajkowskiCheers :)10:58
popeynp10:58
czajkowskidid think it was odd the error on the likes of an amazon page last night but was too tired to do much digging10:59
gingi stopped using chromium a few weeks ago because i couldn't get to amazon anymore11:01
czajkowskiging: ah it literally stopped last night as was on it yesterday before I went out and no issues11:02
gingbecause of some stupid spat between google and symantec11:02
czajkowskiging: the link Laney posted explains it more11:02
gingi missed that, but i suspect it's the same issue or related to it11:03
czajkowskiging: https://sslmate.com/blog/post/ct_redaction_in_chrome_5311:03
gingyeah it is the same, i thought it was fixed11:04

foobarrypetulant child11:34
knightwisevery11:35
knightwiseanyone of you played with Solus OS yet ?11:35
foobarryvery briefly11:36
knightwisegonna give it a try on the xps13 , see how it rolls11:37
foobarryseems like mostly hype11:37
foobarryand predictions for the future11:37
knightwisefoobarry: basically its ubuntu with a differnt skin ?11:37
foobarryand too much instability regarding strategy i.e. package manager, rewrite everything in C, etc11:37
foobarryno, the budgie remix is, but solus is a different distro by itself11:38
knightwisehmmm... so you would go with budgie ?11:39
foobarrydepend what u wnat?11:41
foobarryit felt a bit like linux mint to me. cinnamon-esque11:43
foobarrysolus itself changes constantly and i don't see a clear strategy coming from them11:44
diploMorning all12:03

daftykinsoh dear i just did one of those static IP sets on a friends Windows 10 box, as they released a patch that broke DHCP with BT routers14:43
daftykinswhat a blunder :D14:43
foobarrytalktalk are asking me dto factory reset my router in order to do a firmware update "we can't see your router"14:44
daftykinsheh TR-069 failure14:45
daftykinscan you just ask them what is the current version instead? and compare it against what the web UI reports...14:46
foobarryi'm definitely old. i wanted the new version14:46
foobarryits a newly supplied router though14:46
foobarryfactory reset will reset my wifi SSID config though :(14:46
daftykinsoh no, you'll have to change 3 whole parameters max per band! :)14:47
daftykinsmight have a backup feature :)14:47
foobarrywell it means i can't ask the missis to do it14:48
foobarryor she will have no wifi14:48
daftykinsah you tried to call up from work14:50

m0nkey_Today, I became a real Canadian! :D16:08
daftykinsdid you avert disaster?16:08
m0nkey_lol, not quite16:08
m0nkey_Coming home by car, I have a parking space in the back street. The back street is never cleared of snow.16:09
m0nkey_But turning into the backstreet, car gets stuck in the snow16:09
m0nkey_I sit there for a moment, turn off the traction control, put it into reverse and started16:10
m0nkey_'rocking' the car16:10
m0nkey_boom, I'm out. Put the car into low range, get enough momentum and voila! Not stuck and rolled happily to my parking space16:10
m0nkey_TIL about TCS16:10
m0nkey_Forgot the car had it16:11
daftykinsthat sounds pretty standard to me and i don't even drive, nor hold a license ;)16:11
m0nkey_lol16:11
daftykinsah i've spotted that one in a racing game of all things :> always turn all the 'assists' off16:11
m0nkey_It's the first time I got stuck in the snow with the car16:11
m0nkey_So I passed the Canadian test16:11
daftykins\o/16:12
daftykins*but* did you apologise to the car and the snow in the process?16:12
daftykinsthat's the real test ;)16:12
m0nkey_Of course16:12
daftykinshurrah!16:12
