=== avis- is now known as Guest23968 === Guest23968 is now known as avis [06:18] morning boy and girls. [06:27] morning [06:34] morning [06:36] you've already said that ;-) [06:42] :) [11:24] ok, the Gnome guys officially jumped the shark now: https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2018/05/nautilus-remove-ability-launch-binaries-apps [11:54] Like 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 laucher [11:54] TBH, there's no reason for app devs shipping a tarball not to provide a .desktop file. [11:58] just email yourself the binary and launch by double clicking the attachment... :-P [12:16] works for me [12:53] The new Nautilus in 17.10 / 18.04 is a real regression in terms of performance from my POV too [12:54] Not sure if it's that or GVFS [12:54] But you revisit a network folder that hasn't changed at all and it takes AGES to relist it all [15:55] awilkins: 100% - I've been meaning to investigate that myself, thought it was my setup [15:55] sucks [15:56] Also the network browser for windows shares no longer works but dunno if that's because my NAS is being rubbish and SMB1 flavoured [15:56] Most likely, we're having issues on client sites, so just forcing protocol = SMB2 [15:58] Right home time [16:45] m0nkey_: you're back! you been awol in this room for a while :-p [16:46] daftykins will be pleased [16:46] :D [16:46] the band is back together [16:47] \o/ [16:47] * diddledan pokenprods zmoylan-pi [16:47] m0nkey_: did that meanie zmoylan-pi say something nasty to you? ;) [17:27] forgot to rejoin all this time [17:27] :D all well? [17:36] * zmoylan-pi waves o/ [17:45] a wild zmoylan-pi! [17:46] * brobostigon waves with his right hand, holding a new gadget in his left hand, a new gadget he bought in his local technology store this afternoon with a lady friend of his. [17:46] a selfie stick! [17:48] * brobostigon puts a sticker on zmoylan-pi's forehead, with "blasphemer" written on it. [17:48] selfie stick's suck v [17:48] selfie stick's suck balls. [17:49] you need to read the selfie sticks manual if that ever happened to you... [17:49] new gadget day, :), comparing that to a selfie stick is blasphemy. [17:50] * brobostigon does the dalek voice, :) [17:50] think how much more photogenic the daleks would be if they replaced the plunger with a selfie stick... [17:54] * brobostigon aims his magical sonic screwdriver at zmoylan-pi with the spell 'personal cold snap' readied to be cast. [17:55] * zmoylan-pi extends my selfie stick and flips sonic screwdriver reverse polarity switch... [17:56] * brobostigon casts his spell, and causes zmoylan-pi 1d6 cold damage. [17:57] * zmoylan-pi points to irish race on character sheet which adds +2 cold damage resistance... [17:57] and +5 rain tolerance? :P [17:58] +11 alcohol poisoning resistance... [18:02] :) [21:09] hint: don't turn on the cooker when you mean to turn on the oven. especially when there's junk on the cooker that can burn [21:10] ruh roh! [21:10] hey check out B&Q's handy store stock checker - https://i.imgur.com/7x4hL0A.png [21:11] just pop to waymouth [21:12] surely you have access to 10 stout men and a ship? [21:12] I like how they also include jersey [21:12] maplins and argos in ireland used to want me to pop to uk for nearest shop with stock [21:12] yeah, as if i'd wanna go there ;D [21:12] haha [21:13] nowt on the Isle of Man? :D [21:13] and 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 stores [21:13] nah, even argos wouldn't send you to the isle of man... [21:13] i'm not sure there's a regular service to irish republic [21:14] nah doubt it [21:14] interesting how I caught the potential fire before the smoke detector did [21:14] does the main one to Anglesey go from Dubs? [21:15] yep just seen it on maps [21:15] you'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... :-P [21:15] hang on google maps claims a ferry route to Douglas from Dublin! [21:15] apparently it has a 'toll road' :D [21:15] might be a summer or weekly service [21:17] dublin to douglas once per week... https://www.directferries.com.au/ferries_from_isle_of_man_to_ireland.htm [21:17] i knew there wasn't enough traffic from this side of the border... [21:18] two per week from Belfast! [21:18] ugh cat trolling me at the office window again [21:21] ireland 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/ [21:22] the loss in sales of brekkie rolls will alone crush the uk... :-P [21:22] pics! http://www.dublinport.ie/news/worlds-largest-short-sea-ro-ro-vessel-mv-celine-christened-dublin-port/ [21:24] https://afloat.ie/media/k2/items/cache/3de1c1c873b77c02e3c70a0794f868a0_L.jpg [21:24] that's probably the kind of thing our ferry company should've bought instead of the lemon [21:25] i'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... [21:26] :D sounds familiar [21:26] first time i was on it and it hit log in sea and had to limp to port [21:28] i do regret i never got to travel on the hydrofoil that used to do dublin liverpool run in 80s [21:29] you 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... [21:33] there used to be one of those from here too, but before my time :) [21:34] shame the chunnel took out the hovercraft service too [21:35] i never did try the one from Portsmouth to the Isle of Wight, should do some day :D [22:04] https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10155808940014620&set=a.211750699619.132787.586969619&type=3&size=1440%2C822&source=13&player_origin=unknown [22:04] does that work? [22:04] login prompt [22:04] bah [22:04] sucky nuts [22:05] how about https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/nti5eHpC/image.png [22:05] works [22:11] and also tee-hee [22:20] https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1727824/videoplayer/vi3635854105
