| daftykins | o0 | 09:41 |
| knightwise | Hey daftykins | 09:42 |
| knightwise | how man today you are* | 09:42 |
| knightwise | * please arrange words in right order to confirm you are not a freenode bot | 09:43 |
| daftykins | xD just strolled down from the bedroom so not bad so far thanks :D all well with you? | 09:43 |
| knightwise | Yup :) | 09:44 |
| knightwise | first day in the new company office | 09:44 |
| knightwise | we renovated the garage and its now an office/classroom for our company | 09:44 |
| daftykins | :D fresh smell of paint? | 09:44 |
| knightwise | paint smell is gone, place smells of fresh wood | 09:45 |
| knightwise | we used american pallet-wood to cover one of the walls | 09:45 |
| knightwise | makes the place look very rustic | 09:45 |
| daftykins | ooh yes i see the above pic now, i hope that mug contains a tasty beverage | 09:47 |
| knightwise | Yep , Half of my coffee rations | 09:47 |
| knightwise | i've moved down to a maximum of 2 cups a day | 09:47 |
| knightwise | rest is tea | 09:47 |
| daftykins | i've often found tea seems like the more mild alternative now, too - have quite a few now | 09:48 |
| knightwise | too much coffee makes me stressed and ancious | 09:48 |
| knightwise | I was completely stressed out during our holidays, decided it was time for a change | 09:49 |
| daftykins | right, i best get myself cleaned up and to the bank, then i can have a word with the charity shop staff about these two spruced up laptops for them to try and shift :D | 09:49 |
| knightwise | so i started meditating/mindfullness, cut down on coffee and stuff like social media and stuff | 09:49 |
| knightwise | daftykins: good luck with that dude :) | 09:50 |
| daftykins | ah didn't get the relaxing effect of the holiday huh? that sounds terrible | 09:50 |
| knightwise | nope , got a stress-backlash | 09:50 |
| zxmoy-pi | with a wood covered wall you can give classes on axe throwing or advanced sysadmin :-) | 09:50 |
| daftykins | yikes | 09:50 |
| knightwise | hahahah :) THAT is an excellent idea | 09:50 |
| knightwise | and we can practice on LIVE USERS | 09:50 |
| zxmoy-pi | only once... :-p | 09:50 |
| daftykins | good that you're nipping that one in the bud now, as i know someone who had to go off work for an entire year during a stress related breakdown... in fact that's why i ended up teaching, to help cover for them | 09:51 |
| knightwise | zxmoy-pi: they still breathe after you chop off an arm | 09:51 |
| knightwise | daftykins: wife had a burn out 4 years ago. not something you wanna go through | 09:51 |
| zxmoy-pi | yeah but they won't stand still to try again... | 09:51 |
| daftykins | eek | 09:51 |
| knightwise | she never fully recovered. Says she is like a phone battery that only charges 80% | 09:51 |
| daftykins | well, that's definitely better than nothing | 09:58 |
| daftykins | was it a busy work life that did it? | 09:59 |
| knightwise | Work mostly, Giving 120 percent for 4 years on end | 10:03 |
| knightwise | bad bosses who offered her no help | 10:03 |
| knightwise | and one day .. poof: she could no longer go up the stairs | 10:03 |
| zxmoy-pi | work them till they're knackered, there's plenty more waiting for a job :-/ | 10:05 |
| knightwise | zxmoy-pi: very true | 10:08 |
| knightwise | drone 4993 is defective, replace with drone 4994 | 10:08 |
| knightwise | she always says she got the "BSOD" for 3 years and only then slowy rebooted | 10:08 |
| knightwise | she is now a therapist counceling people with stress issues, (Shiatsu and relaxation therapy) and works in our company as a trainer/coach teaching entrepreneurs about Social Media | 10:09 |
| zxmoy-pi | amazon are walking themselves into a massive lawsuit soon with the same treatment of their warehouse workers | 10:10 |
| zxmoy-pi | technically they work for other companies for amazon but some smart lawyer will find a way to nail them | 10:10 |
| knightwise | yep. Welcome to the new slavery | 10:11 |
| knightwise | Same thing with online stores like zalando and stuff | 10:11 |
| knightwise | order-pickers are the slaves of the next decenium | 10:11 |
| zxmoy-pi | till robots put them out of work | 10:11 |
| * knightwise is currently working for a company helping them with Chatbots and AI, | 10:12 | |
| knightwise | take a gooood hard look at the helpdesk/callcenter agent. | 10:12 |
| knightwise | cuz a lot of them arent going to be around for that much longer | 10:12 |
| zxmoy-pi | no no, they promised those jobs weren't at risk from robots... | 10:12 |
| knightwise | zxmoy-pi: every time you say "hey google" or'hey alexa" you are feeding them linguistic data that helps their voice recognition systems become smarter | 10:15 |
| knightwise | the smarter they get .. the faster they can replace a menial callcenter agent | 10:15 |
| zxmoy-pi | i have never used alexa or hey google | 10:16 |
| zxmoy-pi | never will | 10:16 |
| zxmoy-pi | will never buy amazon | 10:16 |
| knightwise | i have one in the office , /me needs to know how it works | 10:16 |
| knightwise | hmm. Good article on reddit/r/commandline about a guy who wants to go full cli because hey plays to much games/pron | 10:17 |
| zxmoy-pi | introduce him to rogue :-) | 10:18 |
| knightwise | Rogue ? | 10:18 |
| Laney | nethack | 10:18 |
| Laney | the best of the genre | 10:18 |
| zxmoy-pi | oh dear... rogue a console game from the 70s... excellent game. try pixel dungeon on android for a modern prettier version | 10:18 |
| Laney | 😈 | 10:18 |
| knightwise | hey Laney | 10:19 |
| knightwise | nah , he doesnt wanna GAME on the Cli , | 10:19 |
| Laney | moin knightwise | 10:19 |
| knightwise | he wants to get his scatterbrain under control and focus on whats important when he is using a computer | 10:19 |
| zxmoy-pi | i do the same with as many console based apps as possible. it is good for reducing distractions | 10:20 |
| knightwise | zxmoy-pi: totally agree | 10:20 |
| * knightwise working on a podcast on becoming a little more "cyber zen" | 10:21 | |
| Laney | well | 10:21 |
| Laney | I have IRC in my terminal :P | 10:21 |
| knightwise | lets see, irc, newsbeuter, rtv, twidge and Nano | 10:21 |

| zxmoy-pi | my irc is run on irssi on my rasp pi which i ssh into from any other device at home... | 10:21 |
| zxmoy-pi | sc for spreadsheets | 10:21 |
| knightwise | zxmoy-pi: I run all my cli apps on my Pi3 in Cli via Tmux | 10:22 |
| knightwise | oh , and alpine for mail ! | 10:23 |
| zxmoy-pi | i did try alpine but it didn't like my gmail at the time... must go look at it again | 10:24 |
| knightwise | zxmoy-pi: works fine with Gmail via imap | 10:25 |
| knightwise | tls and everything | 10:25 |
| knightwise | hmm. I should take on of my older laptops and JUST put a cli interface on there :) see if it would be workable | 10:32 |
| zxmoy-pi | freedos.... whoooooo!1!!! :-) | 10:34 |
| diddledan | CPM! | 12:13 |
| zxmoy-pi | i have looked at some of the z80 computers currently available to run cp/m.... | 12:14 |

| * diddledan tries to penetrate zxmoy-pi 's airgap | 12:26 | |
| * zxmoy-pi watches 3 feral cats approach ninja diddledans hiding spot... | 12:27 | |
| daftykins | first machine dropped off at the charity shop \o/ | 12:39 |
| diddledan | \o/ | 12:39 |
| zxmoy-pi | left in basket at the door, ring bell and leg it... | 12:40 |
| diddledan | I love that term "leg it" | 12:40 |
| zxmoy-pi | wonderfully visual, isn't it? | 12:40 |
| daftykins | how'd you know? | 12:41 |
| daftykins | <me> have you heard of Linux? <them> uh, no...? | 12:41 |
| diddledan | did you explain via interpretive dance? | 12:42 |
| daftykins | nay, some authentic Guernsey throat singing | 12:42 |
| zxmoy-pi | no glove puppets to hand? | 12:42 |
| diddledan | puppets? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkCfws0jtVA | 12:43 |
| * diddledan might buy deadpool2 | 13:09 | |
| diddledan | available on vudu (US only) | 13:09 |
| daftykins | oooh i forgot that existed | 13:10 |
| daftykins | my neighbour invited me to go see this new Antman one soon, could be amusing | 13:10 |
| * diddledan whops the wasp | 13:11 | |
| daftykins | wow serious storm brewin' here, real rumbles coming from the channel - maybe over France | 13:33 |
| diddledan | no, that's my stomach | 13:33 |

| daftykins | then you must be near me! | 13:34 |
| diddledan | almost over top of you, by the looks of that cluster on the map | 13:34 |
| daftykins | yip yip | 13:35 |
| * knightwise back :) | 14:14 | |
| daftykins | woohoo proper rain \o/ | 14:31 |
| knightwise | daftykins: lucky bastard | 14:59 |
| knightwise | i just saw an astromech and a protocol droid in my back yard asking for directoins to jabba's palace | 14:59 |
| daftykins | xD | 14:59 |
| daftykins | mmm caramel latté from next door also, aaaah life is good | 15:00 |
| emma | hi | 15:09 |
| emma | how do you make the factoids for ubottu? | 15:09 |
| emma | !test | 15:10 |
| lubotu3 | Testing... Testing... 1. 2.. 3... | 15:10 |
| daftykins | you have to ask in #ubuntu-ops | 15:10 |
| daftykins | also hi :> | 15:10 |
| emma | daftykins: wow i didn't know you were an ubuntu uk member | 15:10 |
| daftykins | did you get anywhere with that lemon laptop of your aunts the other day? just done some full disassembly of a couple here myself which had faulty HDDs | 15:11 |
| emma | i came here to find out how to make the factoids for ubottu because i can't remember how to make them for ubnotu lol | 15:11 |
| daftykins | oh i'm not a member, i just lurk here since they've yet to ban me ;) | 15:11 |
| emma | i didn't think there would be anyone here that knew me | 15:11 |
| daftykins | and i can wave across at the English Channel at them! | 15:12 |
| emma | lol | 15:12 |
| daftykins | -at | 15:12 |
| emma | i did put linux on her laptop but she hasn't seen it yet | 15:12 |
| emma | it works okay i think i don't really know how to test it but i think it is okay | 15:13 |
| daftykins | given the age it no doubt has clogged vents like the ones i got and failed HDDs :> | 15:13 |
| emma | maybe i can try to clean it | 15:14 |
| daftykins | https://dafty.rocks/nextcloud/s/w8J28nLfbbrs6bb - i'd been boring this lot with my pics | 15:14 |
| daftykins | yeah, even easier if they're not like the two i had - HP and Compaq that needed even the LCD off to get down to the board :( | 15:14 |
| emma | is that your domain? | 15:14 |
| daftykins | yep | 15:14 |
| emma | that's an awesome domain! | 15:14 |
| daftykins | heh thanks | 15:15 |
| emma | oh my gosh you took it apart completely | 15:15 |
| emma | that's why you are always telling me to fix things for myself | 15:15 |
| * m0nkey__ lurks here too | 15:15 | |
| emma | but that sort of taking it apart terrifies me | 15:16 |
| daftykins | yeah, had i not sorted that cooling, it would've overheated for the people picking them up from the charity shop i just gave them to | 15:16 |
| emma | i would never get it back together | 15:16 |
| emma | hi m0nkey__ | 15:16 |
| daftykins | well if you google the range you can find the service manuals so it's quite easy to follow along | 15:16 |
| emma | reading the service manual is a skill tho | 15:16 |
| daftykins | m0nkey__: \o | 15:16 |
| daftykins | naaah it just has pics | 15:17 |
| daftykins | and "take out these screws" | 15:17 |
| daftykins | i don't know how the guy got his data off them, because the original OSs just totally froze up due to the faulty HDDs + overheating | 15:17 |
| daftykins | Louis is live \o/ www.twitch.tv/rossmanngroup | 15:18 |
| m0nkey__ | Happy little macbook | 15:18 |
| emma | daftykins: you gave it to a charity? | 15:19 |
| daftykins | yeah by chance 10m from my door is one of the UK chain of cancer research places, so i popped down and asked if they would take them to sell in their shop | 15:20 |
| daftykins | so just this morning i took the first one in, loaded up with Xubuntu - we'll see if it shifts | 15:20 |
| emma | wow thats awesome | 15:20 |
| emma | oh wow | 15:20 |
| daftykins | just been fixing up a small Dell desktop as well but i don't know if they'll take that | 15:20 |
| daftykins | i had to put spare HDDs in of my own to get the laptops back to working order | 15:20 |
| emma | someone will be lucky to have it | 15:21 |
| daftykins | dunno if i'd go that far xD webcam and wifi were all working fine though - and they were able to play youtube videos fullscreen | 15:22 |
| daftykins | currently zeroing the HDD in the desktop then i'll get an OS on there too | 15:22 |
| emma | is that a good test? | 15:22 |
| emma | i put kubuntu on my aunts laptop so its not like i found a light weight one | 15:22 |
| emma | but i feel like it looks okay | 15:22 |
| daftykins | depending on the specs it would most likely be impractical to run well for anyone without patience like me | 15:23 |
| emma | i tried to test it by opening firefox over and over again and starting different youtube videos and playing them all at once. | 15:23 |
| daftykins | if i were selling these for profit i'd be putting SSDs in for sure | 15:23 |
| emma | it isn't fast like you are used to | 15:23 |
| emma | but i think her laptop was not that fast when it had xp on it either | 15:23 |
| daftykins | i dunno, it was a pretty simple OS | 15:24 |
| daftykins | i cringed when i saw XP boot on this Dell desktop just now xD | 15:24 |
| daftykins | hoping not to see that ever again :D | 15:24 |
| daftykins | seriously though, you must join the SSD master race - computing will never be the same again! :D | 15:26 |
| emma | i wish i could | 15:27 |
| === m0nkey__ is now known as m0nkey_ | ||
| diddledan | did telegram just die? | 17:46 |
| diddledan | https://outage.report/telegram seems yes | 17:48 |
| * diddledan blames popey | 17:49 | |
| daftykins | xD | 17:50 |
| marshmn | oh | 18:05 |
| marshmn | I was wondering | 18:05 |
| marshmn | I've only been using Telegram since the last week | 18:05 |
| marshmn | yet another chat system though :/ | 18:05 |
| marshmn | thank goodness for Rambox | 18:06 |
| popey | diddledan: did you break telegram again?! | 19:09 |
| zxmoy-pi | he tried to send a message in morse via telegtam?! :-P | 19:12 |
| m0nkey_ | Too many chats. | 20:14 |
| m0nkey_ | keep it simples. | 20:14 |
| m0nkey_ | IRC | 20:14 |
| m0nkey_ | That was nearly a haiku | 20:14 |
| brobostigon | :) | 20:16 |
| zxmoy-pi | don't worry google has a plan... release so many chat platforms till everyone has their own... | 20:36 |
| zxmoy-pi | then we'll all realise the mistake and switch to aol messenger :-) | 20:38 |
| popey | Bring back ICQ | 20:51 |
| m0nkey_ | uh-oh! | 20:55 |
| brobostigon | twelve monkeys on bbc4, :) | 21:00 |
| zxmoy-pi | i ...think icq is still going... | 21:03 |
| ali1234 | produce is to products as consume is to ___? | 22:39 |
| ali1234 | i don't really like the term "consumables" | 22:40 |
| zxmoy-pi | it is the common use word... | 22:48 |
| daftykins | concur | 23:36 |
| daftykins | my friend and his wife, a vat, just nipped back to my house to help trim my cat's claws (because i'm a wimp) after a night out (they're over from England for a wedding of one of our old school friends this weekend) | 23:37 |
| daftykins | i crept in, locked her flap then went to find her, all curled up atop the bed sheets on the top floor | 23:37 |
| daftykins | "oh, hello hooman" | 23:37 |
| daftykins | bring the rest of them in and go up, she's already crept under the bed and is camped out there with the least impressed face ever on her :D | 23:38 |
| daftykins | but right now she's forgotten, all is forgiven | 23:38 |
