[09:54] good morning [09:56] morning [10:55] aloha [10:57] morning [11:01] so oddly when I launch some applications they are so max screen I can't see how to mimmise them :/ [11:01] somewhat baffled [11:03] Morning :) [11:07] 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] 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] weirdly, clicking links in my gmail inbox in ff58 on buntu opens the new tab and then immediately closes it again [16:51] none shall pass... [16:52] popups that is [16:52] I have to middle click it to do it via a different mechanism [17:52] diddledan: how's that gsuite working out for you? [18:15] Does its job. [18:15] Hey [18:15] I may set-up G Suite, disable purchases from the Play store to prevent locking myself in. [18:16] 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] Wasn't Ubuntu touch dropped? [18:17] It was [18:18] Ok so there's no Ubuntu edge or something similar? === ChunkzZ is now known as FatB0yy [20:46] diddledan: a much delayed... "ow!" :D [21:01] "ow my *alls" [21:01] yep, falls [21:02] 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] DUST BUNNIES! [21:03] not my place of course [21:03] ooh, WD Gold! [21:03] nah RE2 [21:03] err RE4 even [21:03] dame thing, aren't they? [21:03] same* [21:04] gold is the old name [21:04] afaik [21:04] I might be wrong [21:04] new surely, these disks are old [21:04] enterprise models before they launched the Reds [21:04] aha [21:05] i actually thought his desktop had Reds in RAID-1, but newp - so i've got a bunch of randoms now [21:05] weirdly, one of the four reds only writes at 105MB/sec whilst the rest hit 150MB/sec [21:06] popey: should we try amazon go while in Seattle? https://www.amazon.com/b?node=16008589011 [21:06] 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] you two off on a holiday? :) [21:06] yeah we're off on a secret trist [21:08] nice, be sure to find Frasier! [21:20] all those 2tb drives... how titchy :-) see the 512gb card for phones announced :-) [21:21] ah these are all old yeah [21:21] no plans what to do with them, but technically being out of warranty and spinning so long, they could pop [21:22] recommend the new helium filled jobbies just to save weight... :-D [21:22] ;) [21:23] do those helium ones float? [21:23] 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] no, not light enough... you need hydrogen ones to float but no smoking is allowed of course... [21:23] not even the magic smoke? [21:23] the blue kind [21:24] well when the magic smoke is released the problem goes away [23:22] Rabies from Maid Marian and her Merry Men has died :-( http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-42775406 [23:23] how old! O_O [23:53] 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".
