| brobostigon | quiet. | 09:14 |
| JamesTait | Good morning all! Happy Monday, and happy Clean Off Your Desk Day! 😃 | 09:43 |
| zmoylan-pi | if i cleaned off my desk it would lose structural integrity! :-) | 09:53 |
| SuperMat1 | My desk is normally quite clean really | 09:54 |
| SuperMat1 | but I do hate the number of cables I have to have | 09:54 |
| === SuperMat1 is now known as SuperMatt | ||
| zmoylan-pi | people are looking for a good monitor that'll charge their macbook pros in other channels to try and thin out the cable mess | 11:58 |
| foobarry | heh | 11:58 |
| zmoylan-pi | and like keyboards what is defined as a good monitor is very very subjective... | 11:59 |
| ali1234 | a monitor that charges your computer? | 12:29 |
| zmoylan-pi | if it works on usb-c yes. there are a few seemingly that do | 12:30 |
| ali1234 | crazy | 12:30 |
| zmoylan-pi | but it can mean that when you plug your usb-c enabled device into 1 cable on your desk at home or work it adds 2 displays, network, keyboard and mouse and charges the bugger at the same time... which is nice | 12:32 |
| zmoylan-pi | i'm not sure it's better than a docking station though... a good docking station mind, not a cheap horrible one | 12:32 |
| popey | less space | 12:48 |
| zmoylan-pi | which for some is the priority but i loved when i used a palm pda been able to drop it into a cradle with one hand and no fiddling with a connecting cable | 12:49 |
| zmoylan-pi | and i've seen 1-2 docks you could do that with a laptop | 12:49 |
| zmoylan-pi | drop in cradle, press the sync button and magic happened :-) | 12:53 |

| diddledan | chocolate | 13:20 |
| foobarry | like the magically chocolate biscuit machine in bagpuss? | 13:21 |
| diddledan | anyone interested in lifetime access to sitepoint learning material? (normally ~$450, currently $49) http://www.appsumo.com/~UZA0d/ | 13:24 |
| diddledan | they focus on web stuff | 13:24 |
| diddledan | going to see rogue one tonight | 15:58 |
| SuperMatt | Probably the most brutal film I've seen | 16:08 |
| davmor2 | SuperMatt: p-l-ease! Brutal. As in a brutal massacre of a franchise Hello H20 or Brutal as in violent I can name 50 worse :D | 16:15 |
| SuperMatt | I'm not going to discuss it further becuz spoilers | 16:19 |
| zmoylan-pi | the alien did it :-P | 16:59 |
| daftykins | D: | 16:59 |
| daftykins | just spotted the convo above, i'd like a monitor with USB C for my Dell XPS13 so i could have single cable charging, connection, possibly USB ports too so a wireless receiver could be plugged in and even gigabit LAN so i could leave a cable plumbed in and have wired on the laptop - all on the one cable! | 17:21 |
| daftykins | that's more doable with docks though, but sadly Dell's is still about £175 | 17:21 |
| zmoylan-pi | yeah a few people were talkings about dells docking thingy... | 17:26 |
| daftykins | i'm sure Apple would find a way to stop it working properly | 17:27 |
| zmoylan-pi | well i did see a story of someone who reported that their macbook kept trying to charge itself off a usb hard drive | 17:28 |
| daftykins | :D | 17:29 |
| daftykins | a lot will probably be down to iffy accessories and cable converters for now | 17:30 |
| zmoylan-pi | someone was saying it's all based on a pyramid of trust with every device reporting itself correctly as to what it is and what it can do... this will fail when cheap chinese knockoffs appear in 18 months | 17:30 |
| daftykins | well there've been tonnes of cables not to spec already so they're already there :> | 17:31 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | hi | 20:47 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | hi | 21:31 |
| diddledan | wow. just. wow. | 22:06 |
| diddledan | that was epic | 22:06 |
| diddledan | I prefer that to the force awakens | 22:07 |
| diddledan | I got a lil teary when carrie fisher appeared | 22:07 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | diddledan, I wasnt so keen on the new star wars from what I saw of it and thought the previous was better | 22:08 |
| daftykins | i don't get why anyone is so fussed o0 | 22:09 |
| diddledan | daftykins: please hand-in your badge and your gun | 22:10 |
| diddledan | :-p | 22:10 |
| * daftykins does not like any of Star Wars | 22:10 | |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | indeed its rather hyped like Marvel | 22:12 |
| diddledan | I find your lack of faith disturbing | 22:31 |
| daftykins | this is seriously confusing, i have an 8 disk RAID6 on a 3ware controller with XFS under 14.04.5 server, it's only writing at 20MB/sec... | 22:34 |
| m0nkey_ | STAR TREK! FTW! | 22:34 |
| daftykins | moreover, not every disk light flashes as it's writing | 22:34 |
| m0nkey_ | daftykins, you got a cache battery hooked up to it? | 22:35 |
| diddledan | m0nkey_: https://cdn1.bigcommerce.com/server3400/v4eyu8t/products/2187/images/3603/Loved_Him_Ladies_V-Neck_Close_UP__58268.1463517860.800.800.jpg?c=2 | 22:35 |
| m0nkey_ | lol | 22:35 |
| daftykins | m0nkey_: nah | 22:36 |
| daftykins | but these 3wares don't speed limit based on that automatically | 22:37 |
| m0nkey_ | does the card have any sort of write cache on it? because if it doesn't. it'll be slow. | 22:37 |
| daftykins | yeah 256MB RAM onboard | 22:37 |
| m0nkey_ | hmm | 22:37 |
| * diddledan cuts daftykins' power | 22:37 | |
| m0nkey_ | that should be enough | 22:37 |
| daftykins | it's on a UPS ;D | 22:37 |
| diddledan | I still need to fix my ups | 22:38 |
| daftykins | D: | 22:38 |
| diddledan | it's dormant right now | 22:38 |
| m0nkey_ | Just replaced my UPS battery | 22:38 |
| diddledan | https://twitter.com/kinlane/status/818585315195527168 | 22:39 |
| m0nkey_ | i need to test the new battery in my ups | 22:39 |
| * diddledan cuts m0nkey_'s power | 22:40 | |
| m0nkey_ | no need. Hydro Quebec will do that for you | 22:40 |
| diddledan | lol | 22:40 |
| daftykins | there's a little baby 500VA APC at my clients from many moons ago, i could try one of the batteries off amazon to get it going again | 22:40 |
| m0nkey_ | i need to recycle a Pb battery | 22:41 |
| daftykins | same here, gonna ask the guy that helped hang the TV to take it down to the local recycling place | 22:42 |
| diddledan | I hate peanut butter batteries | 22:43 |
| daftykins | mixed with sausage, they're the wurst | 22:43 |
| diddledan | bratwurst? | 22:43 |
| daftykins | please sir, sausages have feelings too | 22:44 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | daftykins, they do in the sausage fest animtion | 22:52 |
| * diddledan hopes shauno doesn't see this one: https://twitter.com/danielsing3r/status/818221826685812736 | 23:00 | |
| m0nkey_ | lol | 23:01 |
| diddledan | I'm off to snooze. nn | 23:04 |
| m0nkey_ | lightweight | 23:05 |
| daftykins | m0nkey_: congratulations, you're promoted to diddledan and diddledan is demoted to new-shauno | 23:07 |
| m0nkey_ | indeed | 23:08 |
| daftykins | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9Apcy8GyIM Louis seems to be trolling his assistant tonight | 23:29 |
| daftykins | he's reconnecting traces on a microSD card D: | 23:30 |
