11:46.41 | z00dax | humm... not to dead skin, but yay! to holiday in the sun |
11:46.50 | arika-chan | t'was most relaxing |
11:46.56 | arika-chan | especially since my parents paid :) |
11:47.08 | George | rich bastard. |
11:47.20 | George | yes you are |
11:47.22 | arika-chan | my parents are |
11:47.38 | George | rich. |
11:50.37 | z00dax | I have 5, hungover, people in my house. |
11:50.44 | George | wtf. |
11:51.17 | z00dax | friends, came over yesterday evening - ended up drinking too much and decided to stay back |
11:51.33 | George | FRIENDS? |
11:51.59 | arika-chan | hehe |
11:52.32 | George | arika-chan: I was sociable on wednesday, that's enough for the whole year. |
11:52.42 | George | if taking a laptop to a pub counts as sociable. |
11:53.08 | arika-chan | close |
11:53.15 | z00dax | George, yes I have friends. most of whom drink too much - which kinda makes up for the fact that i hardly drink at all. |
11:53.19 | arika-chan | so long as you weren't conversing with people in the same building over IRC |
11:53.26 | George | arika-chan: of course I was. |
11:53.55 | z00dax | arika-chan, same building ? there was irc chatter between people, over the table |
11:54.13 | z00dax | (arika-chan)++ |
11:54.27 | George | z00dax: yup |
11:54.27 | z00dax | these sort of things usually only happen accidentally |
11:54.34 | George | z00dax: me, mozrat, cpufreak and some randoms |
11:54.45 | arika-chan | oh well :) |
11:54.48 | George | z00dax: did you get the orange thing? |
11:55.13 | z00dax | George, not yet, am thinking of getting a new upgrade on my vodafone mobile, and using the p900 for the orange pay-as-you-go |
11:55.21 | George | is PIPEX good? |
11:55.29 | z00dax | i suppose all the shops will be closed on Monday ... or i could have done this then |
11:55.31 | z00dax | pipex sux |
11:56.07 | George | why |
11:56.42 | z00dax | they were quite bad to start with - in terms of support and prduct capability, then they bought into nildram |
11:57.16 | z00dax | which in turn was a good isp, rather than nildram dubbing off on pipex, it went the other way, now avoid both |
11:57.26 | George | hrmm, ok... |
11:57.32 | George | I'm on Bulldog at the moment |
11:58.10 | z00dax | ooohhhh |
11:58.51 | z00dax | is zen an option ? or plus.net ? ( problem with plus.net is that they can never make up their mind on how much to charge and what for ) |
12:00.14 | George | plus.net have bandwidth capping |
12:00.35 | z00dax | only for some hours in the day |
12:00.40 | George | that SUCKS |
12:00.42 | z00dax | I use way over that - never had a problem |
12:00.53 | z00dax | i average between 100 - 120gb/month |
12:00.58 | George | ROFL |
12:01.04 | George | they say 15GB a month |
12:01.11 | z00dax | no they dont.. |
12:01.15 | z00dax | not for the premier account |
12:01.22 | z00dax | or do they ? |
12:01.40 | George | yes they do |
12:02.23 | George | they all have fucking bandwidth capping |
12:02.30 | George | in taiwan we have 8Mbit internet... COMPLETELY UNLIMITED |
12:02.33 | George | for 16 pounds a month |
12:02.37 | George | 8192/640 |
12:02.54 | z00dax | yea, but the commute to work in the city would sux |
12:02.56 | George | even came with a router w/4 port switch and 802.11b AP |
12:03.09 | George | z00dax: ? |
12:03.28 | z00dax | i work in the docklands, commute from .tw to docklands everyday might not be good for me |
12:04.58 | z00dax | how about aaisp ? |
12:05.20 | George | z00dax: :P |
12:05.39 | z00dax | they do ipv6 as well, and everyone i know seems to think much of them |
12:06.03 | arika-chan | work from home |
12:06.16 | George | arika-chan: you suck |
12:06.19 | z00dax | arika-chan, find me such a job |
12:06.36 | arika-chan | easy |
12:06.47 | George | z00dax: prostitution |
12:06.52 | arika-chan | so long as you don't specify a job you'd actually enjoy or have an interest in |
12:07.17 | z00dax | and aaisp does channel bonding as well :) |
12:07.40 | z00dax | George can i pimp you ? |
12:07.43 | George | z00dax: no. |
12:07.46 | George | try pimping arika-chan |
12:08.05 | arika-chan | good luck |
12:08.26 | z00dax | George, you'r the freak - we're likely to make much more off you |
12:08.30 | z00dax | much much more |
12:08.48 | George | I'm a freak? |
12:09.05 | z00dax | we could find a bunch of rich 60' something's who like round, hairy, toyboy's |

12:10.57 | George | whereas I fancy my shiny new thinkpad |
12:11.02 | arika-chan | (incrementation of what) |
12:11.04 | arika-chan | to be fair |
12:11.06 | z00dax | just bigg'in you up arika-chan |
12:11.10 | George | arika-chan: karma, fool! |
12:11.19 | George | ibot tell arika-chan about karma |
12:11.39 | arika-chan | [13:11] <ibot> george wants you to know: somebody said karma was $1 has power karma |
12:11.44 | arika-chan | that's really uninformative :) |
12:11.57 | George | arika-chan: you suck then. |
12:12.11 | George | arika-chan: now fix my new thinkpad. |
12:12.40 | George | arika-chan: go into tech support then |

12:14.04 | George | no more troubles. |
12:14.18 | George | z00dax: did you get that torrent down in the end? |
12:14.54 | z00dax | George, i've got the .torrent - but not started it up as yet, had to resync my repository up - 25 gigs or so, its going to take me a few days @ 22k/sec |
12:15.02 | George | to be honest, ADSL is a moot point as I'll have 1000Mbit come October |
12:15.03 | z00dax | <-- b/w challenged |

18:50.38 | George | ok, that sucks |
18:51.49 | George | got to use the phone, no modem use |
18:51.50 | George | that stinks |
18:54.31 | z00dax | technically, use as a modem - or use from a phone might be the same thing |
18:54.41 | z00dax | since you can use ssh or irc clients from a mobile phone as well |
18:54.47 | George | hah |
18:54.54 | z00dax | or even a conventional'ish browser like opera |
18:54.56 | George | indeed |
18:55.20 | z00dax | 1 GB/month does not sound like a lot - but for irc + ssh only, its a crapload |
18:56.20 | George | heh |
18:57.47 | z00dax | is that Byte or Bit ? |
18:58.48 | z00dax | cause at 40kbit/sec - you'd need to be online saturating the link for 18 days and 3 hrs to make 1 GBit of traffic |

23:01.11 | George | I'm at boarding school |
23:01.45 | ldnblk | oh so u have to organise a colditz style breakout ? |

23:04.10 | ldnblk | if tv what channel ? |
23:04.47 | George | not tv |
23:25.06 | z00dax | George, yes - the network provider are obliged under law to give you the unlocking code for your mobile phone |
23:25.18 | z00dax | once you have done the minimum required time on contract with them |
23:25.45 | z00dax | ( replying to your message from a few hours back since i wasent here then - and just got back into the house ) |
23:25.56 | George | z00dax: are you sure about that? |
23:26.02 | z00dax | George, yes |
23:26.22 | George | z00dax: ok |
23:26.30 | George | z00dax: do I just phone them up and ask for the unlock code? |
23:26.33 | z00dax | i have no idea on how this works with pay as you go, but thats how it works on contract monthly payments thing |
23:26.43 | George | I don't use PAYG |
23:26.58 | z00dax | yes, they usually either tell you there and then on the phone ( you need to give them your phone's IMEI number ) - or they mail a letter with the unlock code on it |
23:27.19 | z00dax | make sure you get the details right, a wrong number - and you can zap the firmware on the phone |
23:27.37 | George | really? |
23:27.45 | George | how? |
23:33.02 | George | z00dax: can 3g phones use 2g simcards? |
23:33.30 | z00dax | dunno about 3g 2g simcards |
23:33.53 | z00dax | but the unlock code is usually a SP-Lock function in the fireware that needs unlocked. and its a XOR in most cases. |
23:34.00 | ldnblk | i would be supprised if that were possible george, it would be a bit like mixing apples and pears |
23:34.23 | z00dax | XOR the wrong code in..... and its the end of that phone |
23:34.44 | George | z00dax: hrmm, that's a bit crap |
23:35.07 | z00dax | just get the details correctly, and you should be ok |
