foobarryof my missis nabbing a parking space back08:44
diplofoobarry: Wifey can reverse well :)08:47
foobarryometimes she phones me from the car to reverse into small gaps when she's tired08:48
diploWell that was better than a lot of people I know08:48
foobarryi can reverse park brilliantly but cannot reverse straight08:48
foobarrydown a narrow road. i always over correct08:48
diplohah, I actually learnt to drive reversing, so it is second nature to me08:49
diploStarted a job at 15, never driven a car before and I was told to reverse the vans out of the building08:49
TwistedLucidityReversing is easy. Just use the trick I learnt using the rear gun in "Elite" and turn the steering wheel upside down.09:01
davmor2Morning all09:04
davmor2TwistedLucidity: why do that just reverse09:04
TwistedLuciditydavmor2: It was meant to be read like a Viz "Top-tip"; not taken literally.09:05
davmor2TwistedLucidity: oh okay I didn't see the start of the conversation which obviously doesn't help :D09:06
TwistedLucidityLOL09:06
JamesTaitGood morning all! Happy Thursday, and happy Freedom of Information Day! 😃10:12
zmoylan-piwe can't talk about that here10:15
brobostigonmorning boys and girls.10:19
BigRedS1Gooood Morning!10:20
brobostigon:)10:20
davmor2JamesTait: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StlMdNcvCJo10:21
davmor2JamesTait: I think that is valid right it seems to be where we get most of our information nowadays :D10:26
JamesTaitdavmor2, something like that. ☺10:28
TwistedLucidityI only believe news that carries the "Trump Approved" sticker.10:32
davmor2TwistedLucidity: so you see no news, cause all the legitimate News agencies are banned from his meetings10:34
TwistedLuciditydavmor2: They're all fake news, which is why they were banned. You know it's real news if Trump allows it. /s10:35
TwistedLucidityMust admit, I nearly sprayed my morning coffee across this morning when lauging after I heard his rant about the travel ban being banned. Again.10:36
TwistedLucidity"..across the room this morning.."10:36
davmor2TwistedLucidity: I know it's like he is surprised that breaking the law isn't allowed10:37
zmoylan-pithe list of places that have banned the bbc is a list you want to be on north korea, vietnam.... the white house...10:37
TwistedLucidity HE IS THE LAW!10:37
TwistedLucidityWait, is that it? Did he read to much "Judge Dredd" as a wee bairn?10:37
zmoylan-pihe was 40+ when dredd came out10:38
TwistedLucidityzmoylan-pi: That's physical age, what about mental?10:38
zmoylan-pi-410:39
zmoylan-pibut dredd was probably too liberal for him...10:39
TwistedLucidityDredd is a fascist, but I don't think he has any personal agenda.10:40
zmoylan-pidredd is a fascist but he tries to do the /right/ thing10:40
TwistedLucidityHe applies the law. If the law is right, he does the right thing.10:41
davmor2TwistedLucidity: he is not judge dredd10:41
TwistedLucidityHas he let perps off with law breaking? (Been a while since I read Dredd)10:41
TwistedLuciditydavmor2: More Walter?10:41
zmoylan-pihe's given pardons i seem to remember10:42
zmoylan-pii haven't read it since 1989 or so10:42
TwistedLucidityGot some old 2000ad annuals downstairs (the benefits of having a g/f who is also a geek)10:42
TwistedLucidityNo, I take that back. She's a nerd.10:43
TwistedLucidityI'm the geek.10:43
zmoylan-pishe's never bitten the head off a chicken? :-)10:43
TwistedLucidityNot a second time, no10:43
popeyfoobarry: nice10:46
zmoylan-pii was given 12gb of 2000ad comics yonks back... still haven't found a reader i like to read them on10:46
zmoylan-piit really calls for a 20" screen to get the full centre spread appreciation but it's not comfy on a desktop or laptop screen10:47
TwistedLucidityI'd love to get an eReader, but I want a colour screen.10:48
TwistedLucidityDeadtree is simply better at some things.10:48
zmoylan-piit is10:49
zmoylan-pian ipad or android tablet of those dimensions would be silly expensive10:50
popeyhow about one of those dell all in one things with a battery :)10:50
popey18" tablet10:50
zmoylan-pie-ink doesn't do colour and even when it gets there it probably won't be vibrant enough for reproducing comics10:50
popeye-ink does do colour10:50
* popey points to his pebble watch10:50
zmoylan-piaren't they dead now since been bought? :-(10:51
davmor2zmoylan-pi: http://www.eink.com/press_releases/e_ink_announces_advanced_color_epaper_05-24-2016.html10:51
davmor2zmoylan-pi: looks vivid enough to me :P10:52
zmoylan-pilooks a little washed out to me but it is getting better all the time10:52
popeywell, pebble are, but the fact the tech exists was more the point10:52
popeyyeah, it's a bit washed out10:53
zmoylan-piprobably for the best... i'd end up getting one and try to read 2000ad on it :-)10:53
foobarryhow do i enter fontawesome special characters with alt+ number?11:09

davmor2zmoylan-pi: no you only need to type ctrl+shift+u then you type in the number after letting go :)11:31
