10:43.33 | NisoRamen | Ello All |
10:44.25 | skugg | hi NisoRamen |
10:44.43 | NisoRamen | Nice to know there are people with as little life as me about this time of day :) |
10:45.42 | NisoRamen | Skugg you still using IMAP for your mail? |
10:47.05 | skugg | NisoRamen, no. haven't in a long time |
10:47.14 | NisoRamen | Which server did you use to use? |
10:47.34 | skugg | i get it locally, but i actually shift it up to a remote machine (for backup) with isync... |
10:47.40 | skugg | that happens over imap |
10:47.43 | NisoRamen | Ah ok. |
10:48.00 | NisoRamen | ibot google isync |
10:48.01 | | i don't know, NisoRamen |
10:48.04 | skugg | i would like to get imap running on the local machine, because that would make isync complain less when i move messages between folders |
10:48.21 | skugg | isync.sourceforge.net |
10:48.36 | NisoRamen | Ah right. All i found were links to the apple one. |
10:48.58 | skugg | it seems a bit unmaintained at the moment... |
10:49.18 | skugg | the CVS repo is unaccessible (have been a long time -- i checked today, even) |
10:49.30 | skugg | works like a charm though |
10:49.37 | skugg | and now also over ssh tunnel ;) |
10:49.37 | NisoRamen | I think SF.net's been havinv CVS issues for a while |
10:50.06 | skugg | and it also creates remote/local mailboxes if you specify the correct flag... |
10:50.08 | NisoRamen | Looks interesting |
10:50.16 | NisoRamen | rsync for email :) |
10:50.36 | skugg | you specify a local dir, and a remote dir, and it creates and sync all mailboxes under those (both ways) |
10:50.40 | skugg | yep :) |
10:50.51 | skugg | 'tis good. thank martin ling for suggesting it ;) |
10:50.55 | NisoRamen | Tested with Exchange as ewll. Sweet |
10:51.34 | NisoRamen | So all i need now is to chose an IMAP server |
10:51.45 | NisoRamen | Nice to have only the easy stuff ;) |
10:53.43 | skugg | NisoRamen, read the points about running a local imap server? |
10:53.51 | skugg | that's what I'm missing so far |
10:54.02 | NisoRamen | Not yet. I just want one on the local lan. |
10:54.12 | NisoRamen | for "experimentation" |
10:55.27 | skugg | ah |
10:55.40 | skugg | i think vince uses it locally too... |
10:55.49 | skugg | or to duplicate mail between places |
10:56.09 | NisoRamen | I'm also looking at friging with Squrrel mail or IMP. But IMAP seems to be pretty important |
10:56.21 | NisoRamen | The amount of mail he gets i'm not surprised! |
10:56.57 | NisoRamen | IMP looks mighty purty |
10:57.04 | NisoRamen | http://www.horde.org/imp/screenshots/imp-standard.png |
10:58.46 | NisoRamen | vs the more cluttered http://www.squirrelmail.org/images/shots/1.4.0/messagelist.jpg |
11:00.25 | skugg | who 'he'? |
11:00.35 | skugg | vince? |
11:00.37 | skugg | :) |
11:01.07 | NisoRamen | Yep. I think he's on all the mailing lists :) |
11:01.25 | skugg | true ;p |
11:01.37 | skugg | i liked how imp looked, yes... |
11:02.27 | skugg | i've been thinking of setting up some simple webmail for my mom and dad (and sister?) at some point... |
11:02.42 | skugg | but i need proper hosting for my domain first. |
11:02.51 | NisoRamen | Which ever one of the two has an inbuilt spell checker wins ;) |
11:02.51 | skugg | now that i have a job, i might be able to afford that... |
11:02.59 | skugg | NisoRamen, haha ;) |
11:03.08 | NisoRamen | Skugg get an account on the TULS box. |
11:03.34 | NisoRamen | <PROTECTED> |
11:03.46 | NisoRamen | Its amusing the first three times :) |
11:04.52 | skugg | NisoRamen, i've got an account there |
11:04.57 | skugg | i've not used it though... |
11:05.09 | NisoRamen | it apparently has mail setup and ready on it now. |
11:05.18 | NisoRamen | I use it as an offsite CVS store at the minute ;) |
11:05.24 | skugg | i want hosting somewhere where i pay, and can bitch at people when something goes wrong ;) |
11:05.29 | NisoRamen | Ahhh ok. |
11:05.34 | NisoRamen | And harker is quite big ;) |
11:05.38 | skugg | yep :P |
11:06.02 | skugg | NisoRamen, i use printf.net for offsite store... |
11:06.27 | skugg | it's got a 100 days uptime now |
11:06.35 | NisoRamen | Bastards! |
11:06.52 | skugg | oohh, i lied. |
11:06.55 | NisoRamen | TULS is still using a char for measuring uptime |
11:06.57 | skugg | i just logged in to check |
11:06.59 | skugg | 90 days ;) |
11:07.06 | skugg | :P |
11:07.22 | NisoRamen | Eventually it'l be a short. If we get that lucky ;) |
11:07.31 | skugg | hehe. |
11:08.02 | skugg | you measure uptime in cpu-ticks too, right? none of those pansy seconds :P |
11:08.22 | NisoRamen | I don't measure uptime, i'm on a dozer box :) |
11:08.31 | NisoRamen | Why depress myself? |
11:09.42 | skugg | i meant on slut ;) |
11:10.23 | NisoRamen | Squirrel mail has a calender system. +1 point |
11:10.40 | NisoRamen | I reckon we should just od the damn kernel and cheat. |
11:10.48 | NisoRamen | Saves so much grief in the end ;) |
11:12.29 | skugg | do any of them support threading? |
11:12.35 | skugg | i can't read mail without threading support :P |
11:12.47 | NisoRamen | Not sure. I'm still on the overviews at the minute. |
11:13.05 | NisoRamen | I used Exchange webmail for a while. You learn to live without it :) |
11:13.29 | NisoRamen | IMP has a plugin for calender called Kronolith |

18:07.41 | JD | bloody hell |

18:09.32 | Jenson | JD: What you need is a friend obsessed with you, preferably a female one... |
18:14.45 | JD | Jenson|BBS: I know that |
18:14.51 | JD | I just need to find one :( |
18:14.58 | JD | although not too obsessed |
18:16.31 | cupis | JD: how? |
18:17.21 | JD | elif $original_local_part is not "david" then save Maildir/.returned/ |
18:17.38 | cupis | ah, cool. |
18:17.41 | JD | it is a bit of a sledgehammer approach, but it works |
18:18.10 | cupis | JD: well you're using exim. When all you have is a sledgehammer... |
18:18.19 | cupis | :) |
18:18.52 | cupis | dammit JD - people are still directly sending me responses to your debconf email... |
18:18.59 | skugg | JD, why the hidden directory? |
18:19.19 | cupis | skugg: it's not hidden, it's Maildir |
18:19.41 | cupis | well it /is/ hidden, but /because/ it is Maildir. |
18:20.26 | skugg | cupis, was that to be able to nest maildirs? |
18:20.33 | JD | cupis: you should have set Reply-To header |
18:20.34 | cupis | skugg: yes |
18:20.52 | skugg | so, what's the layout then? |
18:21.00 | cupis | JD: well it should have follow-up'd to the list |
18:21.29 | JD | ~/Maildir/{cur,new,tmp,.folder/{tmp,cur,new}} |
18:22.08 | JD | cupis: I could be more clever about the filtering if I wanted to |
18:22.14 | JD | but I can't be arsed |
18:22.33 | cupis | JD: I can't believe you didn't rise to the obvious swipe at exim! |
18:23.08 | skugg | JD, so new mail simply arrive in ~/Maildir/new, yes? |
18:23.26 | cupis | skugg: it is delivered to the 'right place' by the MTA |
18:23.37 | cupis | fetchmail, for example |
18:23.50 | skugg | cupis, fetchmail? you mean procmail? |
18:24.01 | cupis | er, I didn't mean MTA, I meant ... |
18:24.04 | skugg | fetchmail is not a MTA |
18:24.04 | cupis | bah, yes |
18:24.11 | cupis | procmail or postfix or whatever. |
18:24.15 | JD | skugg: mail is written to tmp/ |
18:24.25 | skugg | JD, yeah, but moved to new, right? |
18:24.42 | skugg | JD, then moved to cur when it is read |
18:24.46 | JD | once the cache has been flushed and you are sure it has been written to disk, you hardlink it to new/ |
18:24.59 | skugg | oh. |
18:25.17 | JD | courier moves it to cur when the folder has been lsited |
18:25.42 | JD | so once seen, but not neccessarily read |
18:26.08 | skugg | ah, okay |
18:26.15 | JD | cupis: I don't need to rise to exim insults cos exim speaks for itself :) |
18:26.35 | cupis | JD: exim has speech synthesis? Not that is just bloat. |
18:26.47 | cupis | s/Not/Now/ |
18:26.57 | skugg | cupis, easily. so does mutt. |
18:27.08 | JD | cupis: It could have if you install festival and spend half a day at it |
18:28.17 | skugg | JD, willing to take an irssi script that pipes channels through festival? :} |
18:29.00 | Tarragon | JD: What do you mean - Me and the family rabbit? |
18:39.00 | JD | Tarragon: fatal attraction |
18:39.15 | JD | skugg: hmmmmm :) |
18:39.30 | JD | skugg: if you could add viavioce support to it too |
18:39.35 | JD | then I could irc in the car |
18:40.02 | JD | could be due to wrong modem cable |
18:40.05 | skugg | JD, i'm _not_ thinking of doing it :P |
18:40.13 | skugg | but it would be a bit sick and twisted... |
18:40.21 | skugg | worthy of thinking about :) |
18:40.45 | JD | skugg: nearly as sick and twisted as booting my laptop from my camera? |
18:41.06 | skugg | heheh |

18:44.08 | JD | I just need to buy the camera |

18:50.48 | Jenson | skugg: oh well... |
18:50.51 | Xiaoqi | Jenson: but you fail to realise that everyone is in monogomous relationships and therefore doesn't want to do anything like that |

18:51.18 | Xiaoqi | Anyway.. just been called for food shaped substances |

18:51.32 | Xiaoqi | bbl |
18:51.55 | JD | Jenson: I think that proves Xiaoqi's point and not yours |
18:51.58 | Xiaoqi | Jenson: huh? who? |

18:58.04 | JD | before people think he is obsessed with nipples |
18:58.19 | Jenson | JD: yeh, no cracking my user p/w lol, I domnt want you on my HDD |
18:58.21 | JD | cos I don't really think about nipples all the time |
18:58.44 | JD | it was just that one nipple related thought today |
18:58.47 | Jenson | i dont like nipples, Alex always finds a way to embarrass me with them |
18:58.58 | Jenson | plus he calls them small penisis....i think i started that |
18:59.33 | Jenson | fuck, whats the plural of penis, never been in a situation where i needed to knpw |
19:00.08 | Jenson | Sacred everyonr away again |
19:00.10 | Jenson | oppsie |

19:01.08 | cupis | skugg: are you running unstable? |
19:01.12 | JD | skugg: I installed sysvinit |
19:01.13 | Jenson | skugg: Ruin the lowered tone why dont you :P |
19:01.16 | skugg | cupis, yeah |
19:01.18 | JD | and then moved back to file-rc |
19:01.25 | JD | but I see it has done it again |
19:01.36 | skugg | JD, you mean you just uninstalled file-rc? |
19:01.41 | JD | yes |
19:01.43 | skugg | i was thinking of that... |
19:01.50 | JD | it did work |
19:01.52 | skugg | yeah, i guess that would work |
19:01.59 | Jenson | i need to upgrade, i'm lazy though, but i suppose i should upgrade to slack 9 |
19:02.04 | JD | it is pissy I know |
19:02.13 | JD | I didn;t file a bug on it at the time |
19:02.31 | skugg | JD, maybe i should now then. |
19:02.59 | JD | skugg: be my guest |
19:03.12 | skugg | oops. too late. |
19:03.19 | JD | skugg: maybe email d-d |
19:03.26 | JD | d-devel |
19:03.37 | skugg | i had already uninstalled it, and i don't know now what it said... |

21:59.30 | murble | armijn: at what level will your talk be? |
21:59.42 | armijn | not kernel ;-) |
22:00.14 | murble | will it be atall practical? |
22:00.19 | armijn | more of an introduction to buildfarms, it's really hard to go deep in just 34 minutes |
22:00.30 | armijn | practical? not really |
22:00.36 | armijn | I mean, really not |
22:01.09 | armijn | I just want to show why you'd want to use a buildfarm, what problems you can run into and how to overcome these |
22:01.31 | murble | so like a perl mongers tech meeting extened 15 minute slot |
22:01.53 | armijn | hmm, is that positive or negative? |
22:02.07 | murble | good useful to learn about new things quickly |
22:02.30 | armijn | hmmyeahwell, I guess... |
22:02.39 | armijn | I should train it a few times (the talk) |
22:02.50 | skugg | armijn, that's a good idea, yeah :) |
22:02.50 | murble | oh you used the XP phrase...run for the hills |
22:02.55 | armijn | giving it in a different language than I'm used to will make it even harder... |

22:11.07 | armijn | I did a test with those beers...we're pretty sure that the lager is "Hertog Jan Pilsener" and the strong lager is "Hertog Jan Triple" |
22:11.26 | skugg | armijn, heh. |
22:11.34 | murble | armijn: so are they drinkable? |
22:11.38 | skugg | ever tried getting tesco's to ack that? :) |
22:11.46 | armijn | skugg: nope |
22:11.58 | murble | skugg: did you find train .ed? |
22:12.01 | armijn | murble: yeah, they are, but don't go for the "value lager" |
22:12.09 | murble | if not train and get a bargin return, i got mine for 44 quid. |
22:12.13 | murble | s/train/try/ |
22:12.21 | skugg | murble, i'm riding with jd in his car |
22:12.44 | murble | armijn: is it in a horrible blue can? |
22:12.50 | skugg | pretty convenient, since we're sharing room... |
22:13.02 | armijn | murble: yeah, horrible blue can (even though the last time I had it was 2 years ago) |
22:13.04 | murble | i get to scout out ed the week before... |
22:13.26 | armijn | beers are not special...but OK |
22:13.32 | armijn | (then again, I am a beer snob) |
22:13.40 | murble | have you tried any .LU beers? |
22:13.54 | armijn | murble: no...I tend to stick with NL and BE beers |
22:14.30 | armijn | (and not the lagers) |
22:14.33 | armijn | skugg: uggg... |
22:14.48 | armijn | french beer... |
22:14.52 | skugg | i prefer bitter, but tehy don't do any good bitters at the local shop |
22:14.56 | murble | hmm UKUUG get back on the 3rd fly to Vienna on the 8th |
22:14.56 | skugg | armijn, it's not too bad |
22:15.00 | armijn | I mean...french...beer...in one sentence... |
22:15.23 | skugg | armijn, better than that piss grolsh and stella at least ;) |
22:15.29 | murble | skugg: when is the first pay cheque and which pub are you drinking it in? |
22:15.35 | armijn | skugg: ah, yeah, export grolsch is awful |
22:15.52 | armijn | skugg: grolsch here is much much much much better |
22:16.09 | skugg | murble, dunno. i guess july 26, and quite possibly up in edinbourgh... |
22:16.20 | skugg | (if not the local, windermere) |
22:16.30 | murble | if you had a choice of Carling, Grolsch or Stella, which would you go for in a horibbly expensive london bar. |
22:16.36 | skugg | armijn, i take your word for it. |
22:16.48 | armijn | skugg; really, normal grolsch and export grolsch cannot be compared at all, real grolsch is really bitter |
22:16.53 | armijn | and has character ;-) |
22:17.16 | armijn | murble: never had carling, so I'd go for that |
22:17.21 | murble | clearly we need a miniLB somewhere to test this out. |
22:17.27 | skugg | murble, carling. i've only tried it once, but it has yet to make my stommach turn... |
22:18.01 | armijn | hmm, maybe I could take one extra bottle with me to Edinburgh... |
22:18.21 | skugg | armijn, that would be nice ;) |
22:18.32 | armijn | maybe not >:) |
22:18.32 | skugg | i wouldn't mind tasting "the real stuff" |
22:18.53 | armijn | hmm, I guess a can doesn't hurt... |
22:18.59 | skugg | i'd bring some over from norway, but they're all pretty shite |
22:19.16 | skugg | not that i'm going there anytime soon, anyway... |
22:19.28 | armijn | like Hansa ;-) |
22:19.39 | skugg | ugh. awful |
22:19.54 | armijn | friend just returned frm Oslo and he said that was about the only thing he could afford |
22:19.55 | skugg | there's one i like: "frydenlund fatøl" |
22:20.04 | armijn | my guess is he liked the barmaid better than the beer... |
22:20.05 | skugg | armijn, hehehehe, yeah ;) |
22:20.27 | skugg | armijn, imported beer is hideously expensive in norway |
22:20.40 | armijn | skugg: even worse than the UK? |
22:20.44 | murble | skugg: yeah so you have to get pissed on harder diy stuff? |
22:20.48 | murble | and go blind. |
22:21.25 | skugg | murble, yep. |
22:21.37 | skugg | armijn, uk is cheap. |
22:21.57 | armijn | skugg: eep, cheap? |
22:22.07 | skugg | armijn, compared to norway, yes ;) |
22:22.11 | murble | i think cheap is a relative term. |
22:22.20 | armijn | skugg: (mental note, don't go beer drinking in norway) |
22:22.32 | Jenson | goodnight all, dont talk about beer too late :) |
22:22.37 | murble | don't drink in the nordic bar in london, you pay nordic prices... |
22:23.02 | formi | http://www.bisforbeer.com/belgium/grimbergenoptimobruno.html |
22:23.24 | Tarragon | How about GBP3 for 4l home brew in a week |
22:23.40 | skugg | murble, 8 people, at least, died in the months before christmas from drinking smuggled/illegally brewed spirits |
22:23.51 | armijn | formi: yeah, grimbergen is nice... |
22:24.31 | formi | armijn: highly difficult to find in london, |
22:24.39 | skugg | murble, smugglers/home-brewers have even been known to mix their shite with lye to make it taste stronger, so they could mix it with water and sell it at same price... |
22:24.48 | armijn | formi: luckily I don't live in london then ;-) |
22:25.18 | murble | skugg: i think you mentioned that before... |
22:25.23 | murble | urgle. |
22:25.27 | formi | in my home place any beer house has it |
22:25.28 | murble | when will .no join .EU? |
22:25.52 | formi | .no .EU |
22:25.54 | armijn | murble: probably after the UK has switched to the Euro... |
22:26.02 | skugg | murble, pretty soon probably. |
22:26.15 | murble | armijn: i was going to say it was probably a bit like asking me when will the UK get the Euro... |
22:26.21 | skugg | murble, now that so much of the easter european countries joined too... |
22:26.27 | skugg | s,much,many, |
22:26.55 | skugg | at least that's what my friends tell me over there |
22:27.01 | murble | skugg: so after we've had that party in Redsqure after Russia has joined? |
22:27.09 | formi | skugg: have a look at http://beer.trash.net/topten.php |
22:27.18 | skugg | murble, probably ;) |
22:27.40 | skugg | formi, hehe. |
22:27.58 | formi | 15Centigrades, that's mad |
22:28.00 | skugg | i've heard of aas, can't remember though... |
22:28.11 | armijn | what? they rated the Belle Vue kriek with 4 thingies? |
22:28.15 | formi | maybe in middle winter |
22:28.44 | murble | cross off all the interbrew ones, narrows down the choice a bit. |
22:29.03 | skugg | formi, heh. i thought it was a "thrash list", i.e. a blacklist ;) |
22:29.47 | *** join/#gllug G2 (~gdive23@212.159.59.85) |
22:30.34 | armijn | heh, not all interbrew beers are that bad |
22:30.48 | armijn | if the tesco beer is indeed Hertog Jan, that's Interbrew too |
22:31.13 | armijn | hmm, maybe a beer BoF at Edinburgh conference? |
22:31.17 | formi | Duvel, Leffe Triple, Mort Subbit, Trappistes Rochefort |
22:31.31 | armijn | oh, mort subite is pretty nice... |
22:31.34 | murble | armijn: are you coming up to be there for the tutorials as well? |
22:31.49 | formi | those are the ones + Grimberbeng that I drink when Im on holidays back home |
22:32.02 | armijn | murble: I'll arrive on the airport on july 31st at around 10pm |

22:32.45 | murble | .es? |
22:33.02 | Tarragon | Nah we have adopted formi. Londoner now |
22:33.13 | armijn | well, he misspelt most of the beernames, so... |
22:33.19 | murble | oh i'm arriving i hope the afternoon of the 30th... |
22:33.40 | murble | Tarragon: how can you get rid of those you've adobted? |
22:33.46 | formi | armijn: I wish |
22:33.47 | murble | or is that just too cruel? |
22:34.02 | formi | Im from .GZ |
22:34.11 | armijn | gz... |
22:34.15 | Tarragon | Call social services and they ge taken into care |
22:34.27 | armijn | (where's gz) |
22:34.58 | formi | Mort Subit I know, but I usually drink it rather than trying to remenber the spellings |
22:35.34 | murble | http://www.iana.org/cctld/cctld-whois.htm for a list of ccTLDs |
22:36.10 | armijn | hmm, no gz on there |
22:36.24 | Tarragon | I used to drink Mack Artic a while back but it was expensive. |
22:36.49 | formi | Galiza, NW S-pain |
22:37.04 | skugg | Tarragon, mack... famous for giving you hangovers worse than any other beers |
22:37.06 | murble | armijn: maybe we should campagn for the Gaza strip to be a place worth of a ccTLD? |
22:37.14 | formi | Tarragon: all beer is expensive in the UK |
22:37.31 | skugg | formi, mack is a norwegian beer |
22:37.45 | skugg | formi, uk beer is not expensive compared to over there ;) |
22:37.46 | murble | got to be better than ps |
22:37.48 | armijn | murble: mebbe |
22:37.57 | Tarragon | I lived in Tromso and everywher sold it. |
22:38.10 | murble | armijn: well it can't have ga since that has gone.. |
22:38.23 | armijn | murble: then it has to be .gz |
22:38.25 | formi | Grimbergen OB is one of the most expensive ones back home, about 1.80 UKP |
22:38.39 | armijn | formi: per bottle? in a shop? |
22:38.48 | formi | with four of them you are sorted |
22:39.13 | formi | armijn: nope in the beer house, about 15% cheaper on a large supermarket |
22:39.23 | armijn | formi: from tap? |
22:39.57 | armijn | sounds like an OK price to me... |
22:40.01 | formi | Grimbergen only the blonde on tap, Optimo Bruno only in bottle |
22:40.23 | skugg | Tarragon, yeah. it's brewed in tromsø, i think... it's not popular in the more southern parts |
22:40.34 | armijn | formi: then it might be a bit expensive ;-) |
22:40.36 | formi | most places don't do "tap" beer |
22:41.36 | skugg | formi, fuck you. :P 0.4L of the local shite is about 4 UKP in norway. |
22:41.59 | murble | skugg: calm down, have another beer. |
22:42.07 | formi | well you don't seem to have a problem anymore, so chill out |
22:42.34 | skugg | formi, nope. |
22:42.42 | skugg | i've got one left after this one |
22:42.52 | armijn | norwegians can't handle beer that well |
22:43.05 | skugg | formi, i am chilling... note the ":P" 8) |
22:43.14 | formi | probably a national disgrace |
22:43.15 | skugg | armijn, not this norwegian anyway |
22:43.32 | armijn | hmm, chocolate milk...we also could do a chocolate milk BoF |
22:44.03 | Leeds | well... there's only one Benelux chocco worth drinking :-) |
22:44.06 | skugg | *groan* |
22:44.18 | armijn | leeds: chocomel! (or cecemel if you're in .be) |
22:44.24 | formi | highly flamable stuff |
22:44.36 | Leeds | armijn: that's the one :-) |
22:44.42 | skugg | why do they sell salsa dips in such large tubs? i've had two packages of tortilla chips now, and it looks like i've barely touched the surface of the dip... |
22:44.57 | skugg | i just _know_ 70% of it is going to go off before i get to use it |
22:45.07 | Leeds | skugg: depends on if you duck or dip |
22:45.34 | skugg | Leeds, i use every tortilla thing as a spoon, if that's what you mean... |
22:45.47 | Leeds | hmm... that's a lot of salsa then |
22:45.55 | formi | skugg: interesting question, usually rabbish food is sold in minimalistic amounts |
22:46.07 | armijn | skugg: invite friends with more bags of tortilla chips? |
22:47.08 | armijn | or ask random people on the street if they want to "salsa dip" with you... |
22:47.23 | skugg | i think not... |
22:47.24 | armijn | hmm, no wait...that's a bit dubious... |
22:47.29 | skugg | <PROTECTED> |
22:48.40 | skugg | hm. the moer beer i have, the less spicy the salsa dip seems... does that ring a bell? :) |
22:48.55 | skugg | s,er,re, |
22:49.49 | Nikki_Chris | hehe |
22:49.56 | Nikki_Chris | won't that curdle? |
22:50.04 | Leeds | hmm... maybe not |
22:50.23 | Nikki_Chris | let me know so I can try sometime |
22:50.24 | Nikki_Chris | hehe |
22:50.33 | armijn | sigh, not even NetBSD runs on it :( |
22:50.38 | Leeds | armijn: which one? |
22:50.40 | Nikki_Chris | yum! |
22:50.48 | armijn | leeds: HP Jornada 820 |
22:52.00 | armijn | well, not really handheld...unless you got big hands |
22:55.42 | armijn | leeds: old, 1998 or so |
22:55.51 | Leeds | ah |
22:56.33 | armijn | would make a nice bed-IRC terminal |
23:02.22 | formi | armijn: http://beer.trash.net/beerpage.php?beernum=366, that's the local one |
23:02.52 | armijn | formi: I haven't had that many spanish beers |
23:03.09 | armijn | well, none to be precisely, but I don't know that many |
23:03.32 | formi | there are only 4 producers |
23:03.50 | armijn | formi: there must be some microbrewery stuff |
23:03.55 | formi | http://beer.trash.net/continent.php?cont=europe&range=20&by=country |
23:04.11 | formi | the last one is not really spanish |
23:04.48 | armijn | probably for the germans on mallorca... |
23:05.03 | formi | in the south not much beer is drunk, mostly we prefer wine and spirits |
23:07.15 | formi | even though it seems that now wine is losing market to beer, mainly in summer |
23:07.57 | armijn | well, south of belgium not much beer is consumed... |
23:08.25 | formi | Brauerei Falken AG |
23:08.25 | formi | Brewed since ? in Switzerland |
23:08.25 | formi | 13.5 % alc. vol. |
23:08.43 | formi | that is more alcoholic than wine |
23:09.06 | armijn | I thought yeast started dying around 12% |
23:09.24 | armijn | so they must have added some extra alcohol later |
23:10.28 | formi | i think the 10% mark is the right one for me |
23:10.43 | armijn | for me only in winter ;-) |
23:11.31 | armijn | hmm, 1:11 am... |
23:11.33 | armijn | beddie time |
23:11.41 | formi | good night |
23:11.43 | armijn | cu |
23:11.46 | *** part/#gllug armijn (~armijn@losser.st-lab.cs.uu.nl) |
23:12.01 | formi | bye blockes |
23:42.27 | Xiaoqi | anyone awake? |
23:45.13 | Xiaoqi | hehe, hiya! |
23:45.18 | new2unix | allo :) |
23:45.37 | Xiaoqi | hows you? |
23:45.53 | new2unix | its late. shouldnt you be in bed like the rest of humanity? |
23:46.09 | Xiaoqi | i am in bed, thats what laptops are for |
23:46.28 | Xiaoqi | gotta wake up at silly o'clock to say bye to a friend |
23:46.44 | Xiaoqi | so its either sleep for an hour or so, or play on the lappy |
23:46.56 | new2unix | why not say "bye" in advance and sleep to your hearts content? |
23:48.14 | Xiaoqi | because that would be rude, especially as my poor father shaped parental unit is getting up to drive him to the airport, hehe |
23:48.27 | Xiaoqi | whats yur excuse for being up late? |
23:49.10 | new2unix | i er... ermm... i errr am doing stuff :) |
23:49.22 | Xiaoqi | hehehe |
23:49.32 | new2unix | well, i got in late from work so i'm doing my washing now :( |
23:49.39 | Xiaoqi | you're as bad as i am and yu now it, hehe ;-) |
23:49.42 | Xiaoqi | aww... |
23:49.45 | Xiaoqi | washing sucks |
23:50.25 | new2unix | Hoovers suck. |
23:50.33 | Xiaoqi | lol |
23:50.34 | new2unix | Elementary, my dear Watson! |
23:52.36 | new2unix | but we are surrounded daily by the elements of nature? youve got to think outside the box haha |
23:53.39 | new2unix | come to think of it, dont lightbulbs have elemets inside them? or is it filaments? cant quite remember (it must be late) |
23:54.51 | Xiaoqi | i know... no idea... think it's filaments, and elements are in kettles!!! |
23:54.58 | Xiaoqi | hehehe |
23:55.17 | new2unix | being a trademark, i think the word we really should be using is "Vacuum Cleaner", and not Hoover. We really dont want another SCO case on our turff do we? |
23:56.44 | Xiaoqi | not really, although they may like the extra publicity a bit, hehe |
23:58.13 | new2unix | in 5that case we could probably charge Hoover anytime we use the word in a positive light to refer to the sucking of air or "vacuum cleaning", as we now know it. |
23:59.07 | Xiaoqi | hehehe |
23:59.29 | Xiaoqi | paid to use it in various places... quick and easy way to earn money |
