04:31.15 | Leeds | morning |
04:43.24 | davilion | went to see 28 days later last night, fantastic film, very brutal though |
04:43.51 | Leeds | yeah? we were only going to go see it because it looked like the best of a bad bunch... |
04:45.46 | davilion | its got good reviews |
04:45.48 | davilion | i think. |
04:45.57 | davilion | but its worth seeing, but it is horrific. |
04:46.14 | davilion | What did you think of it? |
04:48.07 | Leeds | didn't see it - it was sold out. we saw Harry Potter instead :-) |
04:55.52 | davilion | ahh |

05:29.10 | Jenson | Afternoon all. |
05:29.17 | davilion | hi Jenson |
05:29.17 | highbury | hi |
05:29.20 | davilion | hows it going? |
05:29.55 | Jenson | Alright. Don't mind me being slow I'm eating and typing at the same time. |
05:30.03 | Jenson | How are you dav? |
05:30.09 | davilion | cool, what you eating? |
05:30.21 | davilion | im ok, just up. Was out being 'social' last night, |
05:30.23 | Jenson | bacon roll lol flour everywhere |
05:30.35 | davilion | going to make up for it this morning with lots of mobos' cases, disks and geekiness |
05:30.38 | Leeds | never tried bacon... |
05:30.41 | davilion | yum, im just about to have a donut. |
05:31.10 | Leeds | I need to go make crumpets... got chatting while eating my wheatabix |
05:31.23 | Jenson | I like donuts |
05:31.47 | davilion | me too |
05:32.00 | davilion | i shouldnt eat so many though, im trying to lose some beerage |
05:32.16 | davilion | but they are so yummy |
05:32.27 | davilion | What you upto today Jenson? |
05:32.29 | highbury | I just threw out my old 486 full tower case |
05:33.13 | Jenson | davilion:meeting up with my gran soon. Going to my parents orchestra concert this evening. You? |
05:33.56 | Leeds | ooh, Chanukah in 2 weeks... donuts are traditional then... |
05:34.04 | davilion | im going to make a fanless machine today hopefully, im making an old 486 laptop into a my router so I can get some sleep at night without disconnecting from the net, and also a fanless disk server, so i dont need to have my workstation on all the time |
05:34.34 | Jenson | Well that sounds more fun than what I'm doing. |
05:35.08 | davilion | i'll probably pop into my gran's at some point need to drop off some boxes, she's moving house in december |
05:35.41 | Leeds | davilion: you know micro-atx? |
05:35.45 | Jenson | At least I like my gran. Some people have really annoying grandparents. |
05:36.43 | davilion | Leeds: yeah but havent got any |
05:36.59 | Leeds | I plan to at some point... |
05:37.56 | Jenson | Right I'm back now. |
05:38.14 | davilion | yeah my gran on my mum's side is really cool. |
05:38.33 | Jenson | What do you guys think of computer fairs. My dad doesn't like them. We went to our first one a couple of weeks ago and he wasn't very impressed. |
05:38.34 | Leeds | mine was :-( |
05:39.07 | Leeds | Jenson: depends on what and where - some are very boring/bad, some are fun/cheap - you're not likely to beat online prices by all that much, but you get the stuff in your hands |
05:39.48 | Jenson | I think he was surprised that the complete systems being sold were P133s and stuff. |
05:40.04 | davilion | yeah |
05:40.12 | Leeds | a lot of shit gets dumped there |
05:40.30 | davilion | ive' never been to a fair, went to that auction in gatwick that was quite good |
05:40.33 | davilion | lots of good stuff |
05:40.39 | Jenson | I wouldn't by a P133 anyway I already have my own P90 |
05:40.55 | davilion | i have plenty of 486s at the moment |
05:41.08 | Jenson | We should be going to another fair next week so it might be better. |
05:41.12 | davilion | i do like the idea of fanless machines though, i have a liquid colling kit somewhere |
05:41.22 | davilion | i think its probably a case of finding a good one |
05:41.23 | Leeds | Jenson: where is the fair? |
05:41.42 | Jenson | davilion: the P90 I've got we just took the fan out of. Has no coolig system at all. |
05:41.48 | davilion | cool. |
05:41.50 | Jenson | Leeds: Colchester |
05:42.10 | Jenson | davilion: coz otherwise we had to put sponges under the case to keep it quiet. |
05:42.10 | davilion | my p120 didnt have a fan, just a wopping heatsink, which it didnt really need |
05:42.22 | Leeds | Jenson: only thinking that a fair in the centre of a big city would probably be better than a local one... |
05:42.33 | davilion | im hoping i wont even need a power supply fan. |
05:42.54 | Jenson | Yeah well Colchester is bigger than Thetford where we went before. |
05:43.08 | Jenson | This P700 is currently running at 24 degrees |
05:43.44 | davilion | nice |
05:43.51 | davilion | i dont have any decent spec machines turned on these days. |
05:44.18 | Jenson | We should be getting a new one within the next few months which means I get this one to put Linux on. |
05:44.59 | davilion | I have a massive dell poweredge server which is just too noisy i want to put it somewhere online but i cant afford the rackspace, since its about 8u |
05:45.23 | davilion | and i have a dual athlon 1800 but its too noisy as well. i jus tuse it from time to time |
05:45.40 | davilion | normally i just have my laptop, router, and a p3 500 |
05:46.13 | Jenson | We have a laptop. Well actually it is my mothers belonging to her work but it's just on the floor behind me she doesn't use it. |
05:46.40 | davilion | heh im trying to get my mum a laptop for xmas, i was going to give her mine, but i've started doing more freelance work so i need it for testing unfrotunatly |
05:47.23 | davilion | she doesnt need anything fancy just a floppy drive, and enough cycles to run win98/office |
05:47.46 | Leeds | my dad bought my mum a viao for her birthday last year... she had an operation and couldn't walk properly for a few months, so it let her sit in a comfy chair and use it |
05:48.42 | Jenson | I think I'm gonna kill my computer it seems to have something against pdf documents today. |
05:49.36 | Jenson | I have to go. I've got to go to meet my grany in 10 mins. |
05:49.46 | Jenson | I may well be here later this evening but I'm not sure. |
05:49.53 | Jenson | If not then see you guys tomorrow. |
05:49.54 | Leeds | enjoy the concert :-) |
05:50.02 | Jenson | thanks, Leeds. |

15:21.53 | skugg | looks good so far |

15:27.28 | eye69 | Sadly mutt is very slow with imap |
15:28.33 | skugg | eye69, not a problem. I don't use imap anymore with mutt ;) |
15:28.50 | eye69 | But I do :) |
15:29.12 | skugg | i use isync to sync the mail to my local machine, read it there with mutt, then sync back to the server with isync. |
15:29.34 | skugg | this can take place from multiple places simultaneously, without loosing mail |
15:29.55 | skugg | i can also log into the remote server and read mail locally there, without it screwing up things |
15:30.13 | skugg | (isync reads the mail via imap) |
15:30.27 | skugg | i've spent a little time setting it up today, and it works fine. |
15:31.03 | skugg | just need to work out how to integrate isync/mutt a bit better, and to make isync automagically set up an ssh tunnel... |

15:42.59 | eye69 | I did get around to renewing my lease yesterday though...guess that was a good thing (tm), considering that it expires on monday |

16:58.53 | skugg | Leeds, true. but lots of sleep is good for cold too. |
16:58.53 | Jenson | skugg: Ah well. I'm sure I can sleep and type at the same time. |
16:59.16 | skugg | Jenson, heh. teach me that trick, will ya? i could sure need it at times... |
16:59.46 | Jenson | Leeds: I don't understand normal networks yet. and all I understand about wireless is you can connect to other people's networks if they aren;t protected. |
16:59.59 | Leeds | skugg: thought you were a student... don't you already know how? |
17:00.02 | dankolb | Jenson: Yup |
17:00.16 | Jenson | skugg: Might be embarrassing to not know what your typing. |
17:00.34 | Jenson | Leeds: Currently studying Biology, History and Geography |
17:01.22 | Leeds | hmm, two 'social sciences' and one 'wimpy science' :-) |
17:01.29 | skugg | Leeds, no, unfortunately. |
17:01.56 | skugg | Jenson, ah, but I read much faster than I can write. I can give it a read-through in the morning before hand-in ;P |
17:02.09 | Jenson | I could take a degree in how to talk shit on the internet |
17:02.23 | dankolb | :) |
17:02.24 | skugg | Jenson, we'd all ace such a degree |
17:02.48 | Jenson | skugg: My problem is the spell check picks up typos, but not when I write a completely different word. |
17:03.07 | Jenson | And I never understand how I typo with letters that are on opposite sides of the keyboard. |
17:05.01 | Leeds | that's a thinko, not a typo |
17:05.36 | davilion | hi jenson |
17:05.39 | Jenson | Like once I wrote help instead of hope and when I read it through I was like WTF? |
17:05.51 | Jenson | Heya davilion mate how are you? |
17:06.49 | davilion | Jenson: im good thanks just packing up to go home |
17:06.49 | Leeds | davilion: ircspeak? |

17:15.05 | Leeds | hmm... alice seems to have changed a bit... |
17:15.14 | Leeds | I should try to get an alicebot up and running in here :-) |
17:15.15 | Jenson | My text reader is crap lol |
17:15.22 | Jenson | Mind you it's at least 2 years old |
17:16.20 | davilion | heh right back in a bit, just need to drag bagpuss away from his terminal and lock him in the car whilst we go home |
17:16.44 | Jenson | Where are you at the moment than davilion? |
17:19.36 | Leeds | not at the keyboard, apparently :-) |
17:19.56 | Jenson | Yeah he's gone it seems. |
17:20.09 | Jenson | Where is sash lately? |
17:20.36 | dankolb | Hiding. |
17:20.40 | Leeds | ooh! the author/owner/creator of Alice is speaking in London in a few weeks... |
17:21.00 | skugg | Leeds, the chatbot? |
17:21.07 | Leeds | skugg: yes |
17:21.30 | skugg | hm. |
17:21.49 | Leeds | oh... it's a whole-day "how to run your own bot using my AI language" thing, rather than a more general talk... |
17:21.54 | davilion | Jenson: glasgow, partick at the moment, heading out to milngavie in a few seconds |
17:22.06 | Jenson | I see. |
17:22.52 | davilion | and now im in the car so im going to stop typing and drive now |
17:22.54 | davilion | bbiab |
17:23.09 | Leeds | so, the question is: do I have something to eat before bed? |
17:23.22 | dankolb | Cheese |
17:23.32 | Jenson | Cookies |
17:23.42 | Leeds | got neither :-( |
17:23.42 | dankolb | cookies with cheese |
17:23.48 | Leeds | could go shopping... |
17:25.22 | Leeds | http://www.savejackie.com - very strange site... |
17:25.38 | Leeds | pity she's a spammer, really... |
17:26.18 | Jenson | That is weird. |
17:26.31 | Leeds | hmmm... or I could go buy bagels! |
17:26.56 | dankolb | Yes. Bagels. |
17:27.13 | Leeds | bagels? |
17:27.19 | Leeds | anyone want anything in particular? |
17:27.52 | dankolb | Yes. |
17:28.02 | dankolb | You buying bagels for everyone? |
17:29.35 | Leeds | if you want... but they're coming via ctcp (except gaim doesn't do ctcp) or you collect :-) |
17:29.48 | Leeds | I've sent bagels by ctcp before... |
17:30.01 | dankolb | Can I collect at next Gllug? |
17:30.34 | Leeds | they'll be a little rock solid, but sure... |
17:31.19 | Leeds | I am actually serious about going to buy bagels in a few minutes... it's a tradition... |
17:31.30 | dankolb | The 'in a few minutes'? |
17:31.34 | dankolb | Or the buying bagels? |
17:32.00 | Leeds | both... buying bagels late on Saturday night |
17:32.16 | dankolb | :-) |
17:32.43 | Leeds | because the kosher bakeries can't open until Saturday evening, so they're open when pubs close, so people go buy bagels on the way home |
17:33.31 | dankolb | Ah. So you go buy bagels rather than kebabs |
17:33.59 | Leeds | well, that too... but we call it shwarma... |
17:34.43 | Leeds | there are lots of different types of kebab - shwarma is pretty much the same as donna kebab |
17:34.55 | Leeds | or however you spell it :-) |
17:34.55 | dankolb | Ah okay. |
17:35.02 | dankolb | Donner. |
17:35.17 | dankolb | Well....depends which 'bab van you go to, of course :) |
17:35.34 | Leeds | like the reindeer? |
17:35.52 | dankolb | Blitzen van |
17:44.23 | Leeds | right... bagels |
17:44.34 | Jenson | right then off you go leeds |
17:44.44 | dankolb | Bye Leeds. |
17:45.13 | Leeds | back in 10-15 mins |
17:45.18 | Jenson | OK |
17:45.22 | Jenson | I'll probably be gone then |
17:45.39 | Leeds | g'night then... you'll not get your bagel |
17:45.41 | dankolb | Going to bed already? |
17:45.47 | dankolb | Can I have her bagel? |
17:46.04 | Jenson | lol all you want is my bagel??? I'm offended <g> |

17:48.56 | Jenson | yeah? |
17:49.46 | davilion | yeah my attempts to broadside the scenic didnt work as well as i had planned |
17:49.55 | davilion | i need to correct the understeer problem |
17:50.35 | Jenson | I see. |
17:52.26 | davilion | it was a lot more fun with half a tonne of engine's gearboxes, steel, servers, and other dead weight in the back. |
17:52.46 | davilion | unfortunatly the fuel economy was suffering so i unloaded all the junk |
17:52.57 | Jenson | Well yeah likely it would. |
17:53.29 | davilion | nice pendulum effect i found though, |
17:53.48 | davilion | Jenson: Do you drive? |
17:54.02 | Jenson | No davilion I haven't got around to learning. |
17:54.06 | davilion | ahh, |
17:54.27 | davilion | one of my hobbies. well, cars, not so much driving anymore. |
17:55.31 | davilion | How was your day Jenson? |
17:55.53 | Jenson | Alright. I'm sleepy now but that isn't suprising. |
17:57.04 | davilion | heh |
17:57.17 | davilion | im fairly tired but im a on a winner with usb support and my curses programming |
17:57.18 | Jenson | How about you? How was your PC building? |
17:57.34 | Jenson | Damn, I'm thinking too slowly lol |
17:57.38 | davilion | i found out why they call it curses |
17:57.50 | dankolb | :) |
17:58.11 | davilion | it was erm, eventfull, i got a working router for a while, well the hardware worked until i wanted to boot off floppy to install the os, and fater much footering around with cables and magic sticks, the power supply let out the magic smoke |
17:58.39 | davilion | bbiab going to reboot into new kernel |
18:02.49 | dankolb | wb |
18:02.59 | Jenson | wb Leeds |
18:03.02 | Leeds | hi :-) |
18:03.06 | dankolb | Did you get me a bagel? |
18:03.14 | Leeds | yup... plain or sesame? |
18:03.23 | dankolb | Sesame, please. |
18:03.41 | dankolb | Thanks :) |
18:05.00 | Leeds | nice and fresh, eh? |
18:05.05 | dankolb | Yup. :) |
18:05.08 | dankolb | Is it warm? |
18:06.20 | Leeds | slightly... if it's *really* fresh/warm, they put it in a paper bag, because it needs to breathe... got plastic this evening... |
18:07.37 | Leeds | it's pot luck if you get there soon after a batch has come from the oven... |
18:07.50 | Leeds | you shouldn't microwave a bagel - particularly not a fresh one |
18:07.52 | dankolb | You could wait... |
18:08.37 | Leeds | true.. and I have, in the past |
18:08.49 | Jenson | Bloody hell look at the time I better be going |
18:08.57 | dankolb | The morning is still young |
18:09.08 | Jenson | Yeah but I'm tired. |

18:10.50 | Leeds | teenagers... |
18:10.50 | dankolb | Leeds: Yeah. With their sleep requirements |
18:10.53 | Jenson | Well I could stay up all night but I'll then be dead all tomorrow. |
18:10.53 | Leeds | because we all know that gown-ups find it easier to pull an all-nighter than kids... |
18:10.54 | Leeds | it's Sunday - it'; |
18:11.00 | Leeds | it's *made* to be dead... |
18:11.10 | Jenson | I can pull an all nighter |
18:11.16 | Jenson | last one was 36hrs |
18:12.22 | Leeds | I've not done a true all-nighter for quite a while... but I've done 5 days with an average of about 3.5 hours sleep per night... |
18:12.38 | Jenson | Leeds: That isn't good for you |

18:21.52 | dankolb | :) |
18:22.05 | davilion | skugg: now thats the life |
18:22.06 | skugg | i usually got a smack across the head then :) |
18:22.18 | davilion | heh |
18:22.36 | skugg | ah, the pleasant trips down memory lane... |
18:22.37 | skugg | :) |
18:24.08 | dankolb | :) |
18:25.00 | skugg | heh, a guy on a different channel i'm on claiming he had "a machine so underspec'd it was swapping when idle" :) |
18:25.15 | skugg | nice :) |
18:25.35 | dankolb | Excellent :) |
18:25.53 | dankolb | Load average was about 5 |
18:26.13 | skugg | hehe |
18:26.57 | dankolb | May I say, on the record, that running encrypted swap on a low-spec machine is *not* a good idea |
18:27.17 | skugg | i kinda got that :) |
18:27.37 | dankolb | Although I would try it again on a higher-spec machine |
18:27.40 | skugg | why did you run encrypted swap anyway? paranoid? got sometihng to hide? just testing? |
18:27.48 | dankolb | Just testing, in my case. |
18:27.53 | skugg | i see |
18:28.05 | dankolb | But if you had *really* sensitive data, I'd say it would be a good idea |
18:28.40 | skugg | it all depends off course, but i don't have anything to hide |
18:29.13 | dankolb | Cool. Can I have a copy of your home directory, then? |
18:29.42 | skugg | yep, if you want to. but only if *you* provide the bandwidth :P |
18:30.05 | dankolb | Sure. I'll bring my laptop and a network cable along... |
18:30.21 | skugg | not a problem. i could use some company. |
18:30.30 | skugg | i've got nothing to hide in there anyway. |
18:30.43 | dankolb | :) Fair enough |
18:31.32 | dankolb | Hmm. I wonder if I'm going to be around London next weekend. We may be doing some stuff at Globix (only 3 weeks late) |
18:31.32 | skugg | a few mildly embarrasing emails maybe, and coursework for which the hand-in date has not run out yet (so i can be done for duplication of work if somebody else hand in mine) but that's it. |
18:31.41 | dankolb | :-) |
18:31.45 | skugg | heh |
18:31.49 | dankolb | Fair enough. |
18:32.34 | skugg | aw, wait... there's my .fetchmailrc file with mail passwords :P you don't get that one. |
18:32.43 | dankolb | Aha. So you do have something to hide :) |
18:32.57 | skugg | i can actually just delete it. |
18:33.06 | skugg | i don't have fetchmail installed anymore... |
18:33.09 | dankolb | Still something to hide, though. |
18:33.11 | skugg | i get my email elsewhere now |
18:33.23 | dankolb | If you're deleting it *after* you've said you've got nothing to hide |
18:33.28 | skugg | yeah, but nothing worth encrypting swap for ;P |
18:33.53 | dankolb | Evidently. |
18:34.01 | dankolb | But 33v1l h4xx0r5 might |
18:34.12 | skugg | yeah, i guess |
18:34.13 | dankolb | Anyway, I think I should be asleep a long time ago |
18:34.15 | dankolb | Good night |
