[08:15] <MooDoo> howdy all
[09:34] <brobostigon> morning boys and girls.
[09:54] <SuperMatt> good morning
[09:56] <brobostigon> morning
[10:55] <czajkowski> aloha
[10:57] <brobostigon> morning
[11:01] <czajkowski> so oddly when I launch some applications they are so max screen I can't see how to mimmise them :/
[11:01] <czajkowski> somewhat baffled
[11:03] <popey> Morning :)
[11:07] <czajkowski> popey: ello ello
[16:49]  * diddledan pokes daftykins to see if there is any life left in the idler
[16:49]  * zmoylan-pi hands diddledan the cattle prod upgrade...
[16:49] <diddledan> it has been far too quiet in here lately (I'm also at fault there)
[16:49]  * diddledan drops the cattle prod on his toe
[16:51] <diddledan> weirdly, clicking links in my gmail inbox in ff58 on buntu opens the new tab and then immediately closes it again
[16:51] <zmoylan-pi> none shall pass...
[16:52] <zmoylan-pi> popups that is
[16:52] <diddledan> I have to middle click it to do it via a different mechanism
[17:52] <m0nkey_> diddledan: how's that gsuite working out for you?
[18:15] <diddledan> Does its job.
[18:15] <uniquorn> Hey
[18:15] <m0nkey_> I may set-up G Suite, disable purchases from the Play store to prevent locking myself in.
[18:16] <uniquorn> So... Im from Sweden. I need an app called bankid on my phone to engage with the government. Can I ask if Ubuntu on a phone would support this?
[18:17] <m0nkey_> Wasn't Ubuntu touch dropped?
[18:17] <diddledan> It was
[18:18] <uniquorn> Ok so there's no Ubuntu edge or something similar?
[20:46] <daftykins> diddledan: a much delayed... "ow!" :D
[21:01] <diddledan> "ow my *alls"
[21:01] <daftykins> yep, falls
[21:02] <daftykins> i present to you, hardware porn, cats and the final haul of out of warranty disks (which also meets item 1) https://dafty.rocks/nextcloud/index.php/s/GanfIt7T2Gxo5us
[21:02] <diddledan> DUST BUNNIES!
[21:03] <daftykins> not my place of course
[21:03] <diddledan> ooh, WD Gold!
[21:03] <daftykins> nah RE2
[21:03] <daftykins> err RE4 even
[21:03] <diddledan> dame thing, aren't they?
[21:03] <diddledan> same*
[21:04] <diddledan> gold is the old name
[21:04] <diddledan> afaik
[21:04] <diddledan> I might be wrong
[21:04] <daftykins> new surely, these disks are old
[21:04] <daftykins> enterprise models before they launched the Reds
[21:04] <diddledan> aha
[21:05] <daftykins> i actually thought his desktop had Reds in RAID-1, but newp - so i've got a bunch of randoms now
[21:05] <daftykins> weirdly, one of the four reds only writes at 105MB/sec whilst the rest hit 150MB/sec
[21:06] <diddledan> popey: should we try amazon go while in Seattle? https://www.amazon.com/b?node=16008589011
[21:06] <daftykins> got a live session booted on a core 2 duo upstairs, SSH server installed and then remoted in 4 times from here to zero 3 disks xD
[21:06] <daftykins> you two off on a holiday? :)
[21:06] <diddledan> yeah we're off on a secret trist
[21:08] <daftykins> nice, be sure to find Frasier!
[21:20] <zmoylan-pi> all those 2tb drives... how titchy :-) see the 512gb card for phones announced :-)
[21:21] <daftykins> ah these are all old yeah
[21:21] <daftykins> no plans what to do with them, but technically being out of warranty and spinning so long, they could pop
[21:22] <zmoylan-pi> recommend the new helium filled jobbies just to save weight... :-D
[21:22] <daftykins> ;)
[21:23] <diddledan> do those helium ones float?
[21:23] <daftykins> i feel a bit iffy about those for now - also totally dislike the idea of the SMR drives (shingled magnetic recording) where write rates are slow due to needing to wait for it to rewrite adjacent tracks
[21:23] <zmoylan-pi> no, not light enough... you need hydrogen ones to float but no smoking is allowed of course...
[21:23] <diddledan> not even the magic smoke?
[21:23] <diddledan> the blue kind
[21:24] <zmoylan-pi> well when the magic smoke is released the problem goes away
[23:22] <diddledan> Rabies from Maid Marian and her Merry Men has died :-( http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-42775406
[23:23] <daftykins> how old! O_O
[23:53] <zmoylan-pi> In a 2003 interview, Lewis said he turned to acting after many years working in computers. He added that when they decided to make him a manager, "it was time to move on and became an actor".
