15:11.26dick_turpinYeah amazing they have a problem with another country caused by another country
15:11.46boudiccasthats the middle east for you, very volatile
15:12.05bilarhegypt is in africa

15:13.04bilarhit's still a toilet
15:13.15boudiccasagreed
15:14.44dick_turpinAnd as usual the problems was started by the UK in the first place
15:15.22bilarhdick_turpin: i don't like your attitude blaming the uk for all the world's ills
15:15.28dick_turpinDivide and rule has served us well for years
15:15.33bilarhdick_turpin: you anti imperialist swine

15:21.12dick_turpinActually I do believe in the Royal Family, we no longer have a world policy we just sod about for the Americans
15:22.04boudiccasas they did for us in the Falklands war
15:22.17boudiccasthey provided much intelligence that we used
15:24.04bilarhthe americans providing intelligence :D
15:26.43dick_turpinboudiccas: That was probably the last time we will ever fight for sovereignty. Yes Good old Maggie had other reasons
15:29.35boudiccasdick_turpin; so far :)
15:30.39dick_turpinboudiccas: Na, just look at the news (I know you don't have a TV) every bleedin night Hilary Clinton and Abama or whatever his name is
15:31.45dick_turpinboudiccas: Why is it on our TV? do we care? I don't its all about making us good little token Americans
15:34.10boudiccasabout twenty years ago i was friends with an american airman and he invited me to stay over at his place one weekend, during which he took me onto the base of RAF Mildenhall. It was a real eye opener to american culture
15:34.48boudiccaseverything was differernt, they had so many varieties of ice cream in their ice cream parlor
15:35.25boudiccasand as we walked down the main roaday he pointed out that there was at least one atomic bomb targeted on us that day
15:35.32boudiccas*roadway
15:35.40dick_turpinboudiccas: Oh don't get me wrong I'm not rabid anti American I just wish we stood on our own two feet
15:36.28boudiccasi think that we're still beholden to the states atm, after all, i dont think we've finished paying them off for all their support in world war 2
15:36.52dick_turpinThats about right
15:37.26dick_turpinBy the way anyone else here get the Feck Off letter from egg? I did
15:37.34boudiccasit was onaly a year or so ago that we finished paying off them for their support in word war 1
15:37.53boudiccasi dont bank with them, so 'no'
15:38.23dick_turpinI don't understand, I've never had any real trouble with them
15:38.39dick_turpinmy card had £1000.00 of credit
15:38.55dick_turpinI had not used it for about 8 months
15:39.17Ch0HagSupport in world war 2?
15:39.22Ch0HagWhat support was that then/
15:40.30dick_turpinCh0Hag: Are you serious?
15:42.39Ch0HagOnly a little.
15:44.00dick_turpinCh0Hag: So you've not heard of Lease Lend then? or that while no state of war existed for the US their warships gave protection to ours
15:44.49dick_turpinCh0Hag: That US airmen flew british planes prior to 1941
15:45.08Ch0HagIf I say 'no' will it steer away the otherwise inevitable argument I'm not really interested in?
15:46.08bilarhdick_turpin: taht would be because you haven't used it, i.e. you're just costing them money in maintenance but not paying any interest
15:46.10Ch0HagI point you to the phrase "tongue in cheek".
15:47.20dick_turpinbilarh: Yeah that was my thought too
15:47.44dick_turpinwhy won't SCO just roll over and die http://rss.slashdot.org/~r/Slashdot/slashdotLinux/~3/229605829/article.pl
15:47.45bilarhdick_turpin: aren't you a clever little boy ;)
15:48.00dick_turpinbilarh: It has been known :-)
15:48.34dick_turpinCh0Hag: Careless talk costs lives :-D
15:50.20boudiccasand it did too
15:50.44Ch0Hagdick_turpin: That in fact appears to be SCO rolling over and dying.
15:51.05dick_turpinCh0Hag: Its not over till the fat lady sings
15:51.16boudiccasbutnot quite dead, just in the final thrashings about
15:51.23boudiccas*but not
15:51.30Ch0HagWell if it's an opera, then that makes sense.
15:51.36Ch0HagDeaths always take a long time.
15:52.00dick_turpinActually it is a bit like a tragic Opera if you think about it
15:52.51boudiccasbilarh; are you the fat lady waiting to sing for sco???
15:52.55dick_turpinboudiccas: Come on Brun Hilda give us a song :-D
15:53.15boudiccasnah, i have to be pissed to sing a decent song
15:53.46boudiccasand that wont be until friday night at our klug social meeting
15:53.50dick_turpinboudiccas: Thats OK I can wait another 5 minutes :-)
15:53.52bilarhboudiccas: i wouldn't call myself a lady, te-he

19:04.06etorixdo nikons talk linux
19:04.27etorixi may have to have a word
19:04.35DiscordianSurely the question is posed the wrong way round
19:04.58DiscordianDo nikons talk a protocol that's supported under linux?
19:05.38etorixi found a reasonable package
19:05.56etorixNIKON   Coolpix S700 steel + Ultra Compact PIX case - black + SD 30x 2 GB Memory Card + EN-EL10 Compatible Battery
19:06.23DiscordianI know nothing about cameras

19:08.03DiscordianI have no idea
19:08.06etorixwot im not bending my spine over carrying about
19:08.46etorixi just cant bring myself to buy some cheapshit plastic jobbie
19:09.21DiscordianI respect people who are skilled in the arts of photography
19:09.36DiscordianI myself am not

19:10.27etorixthey has this weird 12-face recognition algo
19:11.01DiscordianActually I still have a l'espion key ring digi cam
19:11.51etorixi had a high level of darkroom skills too, funny-colored b+w prints n that
19:12.25DiscordianIn years gone by I used to do b+w developing at home
19:12.29etorixrather nasty for the environment tho
19:13.54Ch0HagThis mac's so slow the spinning beachball isn't even spinning.
19:14.25Discordianwhat mac is it?
19:14.30etorixmy ol mac runs os 9, no fancy spinners there
19:14.32Ch0Hagmac mini.
19:15.03etorixu can drop more ram in that
19:15.12etorixpaintscraper
19:15.25DiscordianIntel one?
19:15.27Ch0HagI spent a long time recently trying to put osx 10.5 which I, uh, acquired on it.
19:15.32etorixhad the lid off yet?
19:15.44Ch0HagI think that was a bad idea. I'm not used to OSs getting slower as the version number goes up.
19:15.47Ch0HagNo - G4.
19:15.56DiscordianSpeed?
19:15.57Ch0Hagetorix: Yes. It has one RAM slot which is full of a 512MB stick.
19:16.04etorixtiger bester then
19:16.04Ch0Hag1.something GHz.
19:16.10Ch0HagI'd say for sure but it's not responding.
19:16.10Discordianerrr
19:16.23DiscordianI'd stick with tiger on G4
19:16.30etorixyup
19:16.34Discordianunless you have a mac pro
19:16.41etorixfull ppc, no unibin crap
19:16.44Ch0HagWell I wanted to see what it was like.
19:16.58etorixleo is nice
19:16.59Ch0HagHere we go - 1.25GHz G4, 512MB.
19:17.12etorixbut tiger s better in that tank
19:17.21DiscordianI'd put leopard on a pdc
19:17.31Discordianpc if I had a copy
19:17.31Ch0HagLeopard isn't awful, speedwise. It's just that it currently has three users logged in.
19:17.48etorixi has leopard on amd
19:17.51etorixopps
19:17.56etorixi didnt say that
19:18.12etorixits all lies guv
19:18.16Ch0HagIndeed. And I didn't say a word about where Leopard came from.
19:18.50Ch0HagSo, of course, it never even occured to me to find out that it doesn't fit on a standard dvd-r.
19:19.26etorixwhereas tiger-ppc comes on cd-isos
19:19.40etorixseveral
19:19.58Ch0HagOh that's small enough for a single DVD.
19:20.02Ch0HagBut yeah, I hear it comes on CD too.
19:20.12etorixbest on cd
19:20.47Ch0Hag2.7 vs. 6.7 GB.
19:21.57DiscordianThat's the other problem with leopard
19:22.20DiscordianI could possibly *cough* acquire a copy
19:22.37DiscordianBut i don't have any dual layer media
19:27.41Ch0HagYou can burn it to a disc partition and boot off that.
19:27.44Ch0HagApparently.
19:27.55DiscordianYuck
19:29.50Ch0HagIndeed. Especially as to my knowledge osx partitions can't be (easily) resized.
19:30.12Ch0HagI [didn't] put it in space I've reserved for Linux at some point.
19:30.22Discordianheh
20:08.15z00dax_Indiawoo!
20:08.29Discordianloo z00dax

20:11.09DiscordianT'other side of the world and all
20:11.24z00dax_Indiaand its 132 years since thats how far back they have records for this sort of a thing
20:11.46DiscordianThat's pretty nasty
20:11.56DiscordianNot gone sub zero here yet
20:12.23z00dax_Indiamy flight back was cancelled due to excessive fog and unsuiteable conditions on the runway
20:12.34z00dax_Indiathe local airport is not setup for takeoff's at under 3 Deg :D
20:12.42DiscordianOh dear that is nasty
20:12.46z00dax_Indiaso i have a forced extention on the holiday
