[00:07] <daftykins> wow a B-52 lost an engine over North Dakota... just dropped it - whoops
[00:08] <diddledan> well they are heavy. it was probably worn-out
[00:08] <diddledan> you'd probably drop it if you had to carry it any distance
[00:09] <daftykins> would start to burn the ol' shoulder, yeah
[00:13] <zmoylan-pi> there was talk in a different channel of a previous incident with a b52 when 1 engine failed and 2 fell off...
[00:14] <daftykins> show-offs
[00:15] <zmoylan-pi> on that day it wasn't just the pope kissing the ground on landing... :-P
[00:54] <daftykins> :D
[00:54] <daftykins> crikey, 2TB drive still getting zero'd - have to leave it run overnight
[00:55] <daftykins> g'night folks \o
[01:01] <zmoylan-pi> o/

[01:22] <diddledan> I wonder why irccloud has extreme lag when a netsplit occurs
[09:40] <JamesTait> Good morning all! Happy Friday, and happy Cuddle Up Day! 😃
[09:48] <TwistedLucidity> JamesTait: But I barely know you. PERSONAL SPACE! PERSONAL SPACE!
[10:03] <JamesTait> TwistedLucidity, you do get to choose your cuddlee, it doesn't have to be me. 😉
[10:09] <foobarry> what's the app i need for google assistant? will it let me dictate SMS to a named contact?
[10:23] <brobostigon> morning boys and girls.
[11:42] <SebthreeBQM10HD> hi
[14:11] <diddledan> apparently in xenial "widgets/FollowButton.vala:48.5-48.26: error: Property `Gtk.Stack.interpolate_size' is read-only" but the source code in launchpad says otherwise
[14:11] <diddledan> trying to snap-up corebird 1.4.0
[16:34] <diddledan> https://github.com/AkdM/KnightTouchBar2000
[20:17] <diddledan> where is everyone? it's far too quiet!

[20:26] <diddledan> I'm somewhat jealous

[20:46] <MartijnVdS> 10GbE on copper?
[21:02] <diddledan> seems so, yeah
[21:23] <zmoylan-pi> copper is supposedly good over short distances... it's only on a long haul it starts to fail
[21:32] <diddledan> now that's just silly: https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/cd-tea/
[21:33] <popey> it needs sudo
[21:34] <popey> to eject a cd
[21:34] <zmoylan-pi> and i recommend having an android device running kitkat when you do...
[21:34] <diddledan> is that like the make me a sammich xkcd?
[21:35] <diddledan> "make me a cuppa tea" .. "no" .. "sudo make me a cuppa tea"
[21:40] <foobarry> ok google won't send a whatsapp message, does it work for anyone else?
[21:42] <foobarry> it opens their whatsapp convo but not send it
