[04:44] ouch [04:47] lotuspsychje: Time an money solves many issues :) [05:00] !ping [05:00] pong! [05:01] !ping [05:01] pong! [05:11] bbl breakfast ;p [06:45] done for this session - laters . [07:24] hi all === lordieva- is now known as lordievader === lordievader is now known as Guest10438 === Guest10438 is now known as lordievader [08:56] Good morning. [09:39] 'Morning all [10:31] hey ducasse & lordievader [10:46] Hey lotuspsychje [10:48] how are you lordievader [10:57] Doing good here :) [11:34] wohoo http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=clear-steam-linux&num=1 [11:35] has anyone tried those mesa drivers? [11:37] oh, mesa is the nouveau driver? [11:37] brunch875: think daftykins recently tested it [11:37] brunch875: the #gamingonlinux community also know a bunch on it [11:38] unfortunately for me, I can only use the proprietary drivers on this laptop [11:38] otherwise ubuntu hangs on login [11:38] which is surprising, since the installer works just fine with whatever it comes bundled with [11:38] brunch875: what kind of card is that [11:39] gtx960 [11:39] (laptop) [11:39] brunch875: talk to the #gamingonlinux guys, they will know if that card can run mesa [11:40] really? thanks for the tips [11:40] msea is a big deal lately on gaming for linux [11:40] *mesa [12:18] Howdy folks [17:47] \o [17:52] hey daftykins [17:53] how's it going? [17:53] mmm not bad here cheers, although i've had my shower ripped out now for the insurance process so i can't wash at home anymore :) [17:55] what's new with you? [18:41] not much just finished eating some mcdonalds [18:42] eating like a beast [18:43] ever since my grandma got kidney disease i was already eating like a beast and i figured i'd probably get kidney disease too so i'm like eating even more now before it happens some day [18:43] plus i have to take advantage of my super fast metabolism, it's like wasting a gift or something [18:44] :D [18:44] XD [18:44] not sure how you get from kidneys -> food, but hey if it works for you :D [18:44] she can't eat anything anymore [18:45] oic [18:45] it's like a super strict diet no chocolate no salt no eggs nothing [18:46] oof [18:47] yup it's basically like trying to eat very very little to control the kidney malfunction [18:47] like she can eat pees just once a week, and just a coupe fruits, etc [18:48] that's a serious quality of life reduction [18:48] yeah it is [18:49] i'd hate to be picking and choosing food [18:51] yup, and like 20% of people get it i think [18:51] let the food downing begin :D [18:53] are you gaming much? [18:53] did you check out the last guardian by any chance? [18:53] not hugely, been replaying Mass Effect 2 a little bit recently [18:53] i watched some twitch streamers play Last Guardian yeah, but it doesn't strike me as being much fun [18:53] cool [18:54] yeah me too, it seems so-so [18:56] i'll probably get it though, i really enjoyed shadow of the collosus back on the ps2 [18:56] it's sort of soothing and climbing around giants was pretty fun [18:57] ah i had friends that played that and Iko (sp) but i never saw either [18:57] i dont feel like solving the puzzles though, they seemed pretty cumbersome in some youtube videos i watched [18:58] shadow of collosus is probably one of my favorite games on ps2 [18:58] i played it though when i used to smoke a lot of weed [18:58] lol so that could have been a factor [18:59] not sure how much i'd like the last guardian but it seems ok i guess, not a lot of releases have been fun on the ps4, i have like 9 games i bought and just finished uncharted 4 and tomb raider that's all [19:00] no man's sky was a huge meh [19:01] :) [19:01] i wish they'd make games like zelda and more nintendo'y games [19:01] NMS probably will become like everyone wanted it to be in time [19:01] i'd imagine the devs got plenty of money to keep going with it! [19:02] yup [19:03] i read that final fantasy got a really good review [19:03] i've never played one before [19:04] nor me, years and years ago i found a coverdisc demo of Final Fantasy VII on PC - and since my friends at school were talking about it, i tried it out [19:04] you started as a chracter walking along a sunny, green path up to an old man... then as you got close you were suddenly transported to a cave fighting some weird creature [19:04] i quit it right away :P just seemed silly [19:04] lol [19:05] :D [19:05] how's work been? [19:06] a few little bits going on, still trying to work out why the first 4K bluray we tried on my clients new TV went out of sync [19:06] aha [19:06] he's kindly let me use one of his bathrooms whilst my house is a mess, so when i went up for a shower yesterday i put the same film on again (Everest) and yep, yet again it went out of sync about 65 minutes in [19:07] i might just take the films back [19:07] needs another one tested really :> [19:07] yup [19:12] daftykins, what audio codec did the 4K bluray use ? [19:12] Dolby Atmos on them now [19:13] i'm not sure which other formats it can switch down to, though [19:13] PCs can't do anything with the new discs yet [19:20] ok, I'm kind of setup for Dolby Atmos , my surround speakers are placed on high shelves facing the ceiling. [19:21] gives more ambience [19:21] just need an AV receiver that supports it, supports HDMI 2.0 with HDCP 2.2 - a 4K bluray player and a 4K TV also with HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 :) [19:22] pretty sure the display was actually reading "Dolby TrueHD with Dolby Surround" during playback though [19:22] might be that it only uses Atmos if you have all the channels hooked up, he has a 5.1 setup there [19:25] right, that's my setup ..5.1, altho my subwoofer has seen better days , my mains go just as deep in the bas , but with better definition than the sub, just not as loud [19:25] bas=bass [19:25] :> [19:26] i need to work out how to configure his a bit better, the sub is at 50% volume and is ridiculously overpowered at the moment. a dial on the side shows it's set to "90Hz" so i assume i need to set crossover to 90Hz on the AVR too [19:28] well, that makes for a steeper drop in upper bass response which can cause phase troubles with a hole in the middle effect [19:31] but room placement has more effect than anything , it's a tricky thing [19:31] best i configure it right in case there's any potential for damage, though i doubt that's possible [19:32] maybe it just needs the sub's volume dropped to 25% then it'll be bearable, bit of a room shaker at the moment :) [19:34] that's what subs are supposed to do, altho they shoudn't overwhelm the rest of the sounds [19:34] mmm because my client never gets much time to make use of it, it's never been properly set up by the guy that put it in [19:35] now i've taken it over and put the new TV, AVR and 4K bluray in i've had a chance to configure them from scratch [19:41] right
