[01:52] further to the gitlab purchase of gitter.im - they're gonna opensauce it: http://venturebeat.com/2017/03/15/gitlab-acquires-software-chat-startup-gitter-will-open-source-the-code/ [06:23] morning all, in fact very early morning [08:13] popey, poing [08:25] Morning all [08:26] \o [08:44] popey: yes, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTRd18GR5k0 choose HD quality [08:44] of my missis nabbing a parking space back [08:47] foobarry: Wifey can reverse well :) [08:48] ometimes she phones me from the car to reverse into small gaps when she's tired [08:48] Well that was better than a lot of people I know [08:48] i can reverse park brilliantly but cannot reverse straight [08:48] down a narrow road. i always over correct [08:49] hah, I actually learnt to drive reversing, so it is second nature to me [08:49] Started a job at 15, never driven a car before and I was told to reverse the vans out of the building [09:01] Reversing is easy. Just use the trick I learnt using the rear gun in "Elite" and turn the steering wheel upside down. [09:04] Morning all [09:04] TwistedLucidity: why do that just reverse [09:05] davmor2: It was meant to be read like a Viz "Top-tip"; not taken literally. [09:06] TwistedLucidity: oh okay I didn't see the start of the conversation which obviously doesn't help :D [09:06] LOL [10:12] Good morning all! Happy Thursday, and happy Freedom of Information Day! 😃 [10:15] we can't talk about that here [10:19] morning boys and girls. [10:20] Gooood Morning! [10:20] :) [10:21] JamesTait: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StlMdNcvCJo [10:26] JamesTait: I think that is valid right it seems to be where we get most of our information nowadays :D [10:28] davmor2, something like that. ☺ [10:32] I only believe news that carries the "Trump Approved" sticker. [10:34] TwistedLucidity: so you see no news, cause all the legitimate News agencies are banned from his meetings [10:35] davmor2: They're all fake news, which is why they were banned. You know it's real news if Trump allows it. /s [10:36] Must 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] "..across the room this morning.." [10:37] TwistedLucidity: I know it's like he is surprised that breaking the law isn't allowed [10:37] the list of places that have banned the bbc is a list you want to be on north korea, vietnam.... the white house... [10:37] HE IS THE LAW! [10:37] Wait, is that it? Did he read to much "Judge Dredd" as a wee bairn? [10:38] he was 40+ when dredd came out [10:38] zmoylan-pi: That's physical age, what about mental? [10:39] -4 [10:39] but dredd was probably too liberal for him... [10:40] Dredd is a fascist, but I don't think he has any personal agenda. [10:40] dredd is a fascist but he tries to do the /right/ thing [10:41] He applies the law. If the law is right, he does the right thing. [10:41] TwistedLucidity: he is not judge dredd [10:41] Has he let perps off with law breaking? (Been a while since I read Dredd) [10:41] davmor2: More Walter? [10:42] he's given pardons i seem to remember [10:42] i haven't read it since 1989 or so [10:42] Got some old 2000ad annuals downstairs (the benefits of having a g/f who is also a geek) [10:43] No, I take that back. She's a nerd. [10:43] I'm the geek. [10:43] she's never bitten the head off a chicken? :-) [10:43] Not a second time, no [10:46] foobarry: nice [10:46] i was given 12gb of 2000ad comics yonks back... still haven't found a reader i like to read them on [10:47] it really calls for a 20" screen to get the full centre spread appreciation but it's not comfy on a desktop or laptop screen [10:48] I'd love to get an eReader, but I want a colour screen. [10:48] Deadtree is simply better at some things. [10:49] it is [10:50] an ipad or android tablet of those dimensions would be silly expensive [10:50] how about one of those dell all in one things with a battery :) [10:50] 18" tablet [10:50] e-ink doesn't do colour and even when it gets there it probably won't be vibrant enough for reproducing comics [10:50] e-ink does do colour [10:50] * popey points to his pebble watch [10:51] aren't they dead now since been bought? :-( [10:51] zmoylan-pi: http://www.eink.com/press_releases/e_ink_announces_advanced_color_epaper_05-24-2016.html [10:52] zmoylan-pi: looks vivid enough to me :P [10:52] looks a little washed out to me but it is getting better all the time [10:52] well, pebble are, but the fact the tech exists was more the point [10:53] yeah, it's a bit washed out [10:53] probably for the best... i'd end up getting one and try to read 2000ad on it :-) [11:09] how do i enter fontawesome special characters with alt+ number? [11:09] into libreoffice for example [11:10] i have number U+ F0C0 [11:12] ah got it [11:12] ctrl-shift-u return [11:24] that sounds like it needs 3 hands... [11:31] zmoylan-pi: no you only need to type ctrl+shift+u then you type in the number after letting go :) [11:31] 😁 [11:32] zmoylan-pi: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emoticons_(Unicode_block) [11:32] enjoy [11:33] i'll stick with irc emoticons and be happy i tellz you... ::waves cane at whippersnappers:: [11:34] 💩 [11:34] which is just a little box with numbers on my pi... ::pats pi for shielding me from nasty unicode:: [12:57] I have the poop icon in my fonts? \o/ Life complete. [12:58] so... you're the fan the poop hits? :-) [13:06] Emoji are not Emoticons are not Kaomoji
