diddledanok, the Gnome guys officially jumped the shark now: https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2018/05/nautilus-remove-ability-launch-binaries-apps11:24
SuperMattLike I've said, I don't mind as long as there is some way to quickly create a desktop file and add it to the laucher11:54
SuperMattTBH, there's no reason for app devs shipping a tarball not to provide a .desktop file.11:54
zmoylan-pijust email yourself the binary and launch by double clicking the attachment... :-P11:58
m0nkey_works for me12:16
awilkinsThe new Nautilus in 17.10 / 18.04 is a real regression in terms of performance from my POV too12:53
awilkinsNot sure if it's that or GVFS12:54
awilkinsBut you revisit a network folder that hasn't changed at all and it takes AGES to relist it all12:54
diploawilkins: 100% - I've been meaning to investigate that myself, thought it was my setup15:55
diplosucks15:55
awilkinsAlso the network browser for windows shares no longer works but dunno if that's because my NAS is being rubbish and SMB1 flavoured15:56
diploMost likely, we're having issues on client sites, so just forcing protocol = SMB215:56
diploRight home time15:58

zmoylan-pia selfie stick!17:46
* brobostigon puts a sticker on zmoylan-pi's forehead, with "blasphemer" written on it.17:48
brobostigonselfie stick's suck v17:48
brobostigonselfie stick's suck balls.17:48
zmoylan-piyou need to read the selfie sticks manual if that ever happened to you...17:49
brobostigonnew gadget day, :), comparing that to a selfie stick is blasphemy.17:49
* brobostigon does the dalek voice, :)17:50
zmoylan-pithink how much more photogenic the daleks would be if they replaced the plunger with a selfie stick...17:50
* brobostigon aims his magical sonic screwdriver at zmoylan-pi with the spell 'personal cold snap' readied to be cast.17:54
* zmoylan-pi extends my selfie stick and flips sonic screwdriver reverse polarity switch...17:55
* brobostigon casts his spell, and causes zmoylan-pi 1d6 cold damage.17:56
* zmoylan-pi points to irish race on character sheet which adds +2 cold damage resistance...17:57

zmoylan-pi+11 alcohol poisoning resistance...17:58

diddledanhint: don't turn on the cooker when you mean to turn on the oven. especially when there's junk on the cooker that can burn21:09
daftykinsruh roh!21:10
daftykinshey check out B&Q's handy store stock checker - https://i.imgur.com/7x4hL0A.png21:10
diddledanjust pop to waymouth21:11
zmoylan-pisurely you have access to 10 stout men and a ship?21:12
diddledanI like how they also include jersey21:12
zmoylan-pimaplins and argos in ireland used to want me to pop to uk for nearest shop with stock21:12
daftykinsyeah, as if i'd wanna go there ;D21:12
diddledanhaha21:12
daftykinsnowt on the Isle of Man? :D21:13
zmoylan-piand even when i'd nail the store down with a shop code it would never let me check my nearest stores stock levels but would let me check other irish stores21:13
zmoylan-pinah, even argos wouldn't send you to the isle of man...21:13
zmoylan-pii'm not sure there's a regular service to irish republic21:13
daftykinsnah doubt it21:14
diddledaninteresting how I caught the potential fire before the smoke detector did21:14
daftykinsdoes the main one to Anglesey go from Dubs?21:14
daftykinsyep just seen it on maps21:15
zmoylan-piyou'd have to hijack the ferry... set course to the isle of man or this barman will regret it!!! if we land on isle of man we'll _ALL_ regret it... :-P21:15
daftykinshang on google maps claims a ferry route to Douglas from Dublin!21:15
daftykinsapparently it has a 'toll road' :D21:15
zmoylan-pimight be a summer or weekly service21:15
zmoylan-pidublin to douglas once per week... https://www.directferries.com.au/ferries_from_isle_of_man_to_ireland.htm21:17
zmoylan-pii knew there wasn't enough traffic from this side of the border...21:17
daftykinstwo per week from Belfast!21:18
daftykinsugh cat trolling me at the office window again21:18
zmoylan-piireland is celebrating it's shiny new ferry bypassing uk and heading directly to france... 8km of parking spaces on it... http://www.en.portnews.ru/news/257097/21:21
zmoylan-pithe loss in sales of brekkie rolls will alone crush the uk... :-P21:22
daftykinspics! http://www.dublinport.ie/news/worlds-largest-short-sea-ro-ro-vessel-mv-celine-christened-dublin-port/21:22
daftykinshttps://afloat.ie/media/k2/items/cache/3de1c1c873b77c02e3c70a0794f868a0_L.jpg21:24
daftykinsthat's probably the kind of thing our ferry company should've bought instead of the lemon21:24
zmoylan-pii'll reserve my judgement till it's served a few years in the irish sea... it tends to chew ships up and spit them out... we had a high speed catamaran ferry and it was damaged sailing to ireland the first time in a summer storm...21:25
daftykins:D sounds familiar21:26
zmoylan-pifirst time i was on it and it hit log in sea and had to limp to port21:26
zmoylan-pii do regret i never got to travel on the hydrofoil that used to do dublin liverpool run in 80s21:28
zmoylan-piyou were strapped in like a fun fair and the voyages even on a good day were an adventure... but quicker than air as no security checks travel to airport outside city...21:29
daftykinsthere used to be one of those from here too, but before my time :)21:33
zmoylan-pishame the chunnel took out the hovercraft service too21:34
daftykinsi never did try the one from Portsmouth to the Isle of Wight, should do some day :D21:35
