14:28.34 | bilarh | turbo, of course |
14:28.43 | bilarh | should achieve about 300bhp "easily" |

14:28.59 | bilarh | on the other hand, i don't know how many tuned cars i need :-\ |
14:31.41 | j0nr | xantia 2.0 turbo ...hardly interesting, but i didnt know they did one |
14:32.21 | j0nr | shame you need a big car... could get a supra |
14:32.28 | bilarh | yeah a supra would be cool :D |
14:32.30 | bilarh | i like the mk3 |
14:32.35 | bilarh | feels like driving a tank :) |
14:32.45 | bilarh | although, they do feel overweight |
14:33.28 | j0nr | theres a subaru legacy still under 500 on ebay...doubt it will stay under, but bet that could be made into a beast |
14:33.37 | bilarh | ah yeah |
14:33.42 | bilarh | got a subaru already, don't want another one :) |
14:33.47 | bilarh | bloody money pits |
14:33.50 | j0nr | i bet... |
14:33.55 | j0nr | what you got? impreza? |
14:34.00 | bilarh | yeah |
14:34.03 | Blapto1 | How many cars have you been through bilarh? |
14:34.05 | bilarh | the wrx |
14:34.15 | Blapto1 | For as long as I can remember you've been looking to buy/sell them |
14:34.41 | j0nr | wish i could afford to buy/sell cars |
14:35.12 | bilarh | blapto1: complete history timelline: saab 900i, toyota celica, clio 1.2, subaru impreza wrx, renault megane coupe, renault clio 1.4 |
14:35.25 | Blapto1 | Ah, that's not too bad |
14:35.36 | bilarh | the first clio was my wifes |

14:35.47 | bilarh | and the megane was my in laws :) |
14:35.55 | j0nr | oo i like renaults |
14:36.01 | j0nr | ive had a few 19 16v |
14:36.02 | j0nr | s |
14:36.03 | bilarh | they are good to drive, yes |
14:36.18 | bilarh | i liked the 1.2 clio the best to be honest... it was an r-reg, weighed nothing |
14:36.28 | Blapto | Are you no longer looking for a porsche? |
14:36.37 | j0nr | but would have been better if it was 16v, or better still 2.0 |
14:36.50 | Blapto | There's about £300 of repairs on that Rover |
14:36.52 | Blapto | Maybe more |
14:37.02 | bilarh | blapto: nah, gave up that idea... they feel too slow :S |
14:37.22 | j0nr | you expect to find a car that doesnt need repairs for under 500? |
14:37.35 | Blapto | Not repairs to the same value as the car :P |
14:37.46 | bilarh | j0nr: no but what i meant was, i wasn't sure if i could get it home the 30 miles without blowing the engine and gearbox :D |
14:38.23 | j0nr | ah |
14:38.41 | bilarh | to be honest, the fixing it part is part of the fun |
14:38.44 | bilarh | when it's not rust |
14:38.46 | Blapto | yeah, true |
14:38.51 | bilarh | hates rust more than his job |

14:41.12 | j0nr | ive always wanted one of them, but a pure clean example |
14:41.13 | bilarh | blapto: i'm thinking i might take a job as a fluffer and work my way up |
14:41.33 | bilarh | j0nr: that bodykit isn't *too* bad |
14:41.55 | Blapto | I know a couple of guys in porn, apparently the fluffer thing is a complete myth |

14:44.44 | bilarh | should I hold my breath until it finishes? :) |
14:45.00 | j0nr | i wouldn't |
14:45.04 | j0nr | 8 days is a long time |
14:45.42 | bilarh | the 5 cylinder audi's sound fantastic, though :) |
14:46.17 | bilarh | wasn't there a maestro turbo as well? |
14:46.22 | bilarh | starlet turbo :D |
14:46.56 | j0nr | yeah maestro turbo was meant to be good |
14:47.05 | j0nr | starlet a bit small for me |
14:47.35 | bilarh | yeah me too |
14:47.50 | bilarh | it's a shame, otherwise i'd have gotten myself an mr2 |
14:47.57 | bilarh | not for the purpose of the scumball |
14:48.58 | j0nr | lol either a mistake or an idiot trying to get his ad found: RENAULT 19 BLUE V8 CONVERTABLE |
14:49.26 | bilarh | probably the latter :) |
14:49.44 | bilarh | maybe they meant 8v :) |

14:52.01 | bilarh | to be honest, i'll probably end up with a saab turbo, i used to hanker after one of them in my early 20's |
14:52.32 | j0nr | im more browsing for interesting cars now |
14:52.43 | j0nr | i will have 8 cylinders one day |
14:52.49 | bilarh | yeah me too |

15:12.49 | cpufreak | bilarh: were you with those scumball idiots this weekend? |
15:12.55 | bilarh | cpufreak: umm no |
15:12.58 | cpufreak | oh |
15:13.04 | cpufreak | I htought you were doing that |
15:13.13 | bilarh | scumball 3000, it doesn't even go past nurburg |
15:13.14 | cpufreak | they were at the 'ring this weekend, causing lots of problems. |
15:13.16 | cpufreak | oh right |
15:13.20 | bilarh | scumball != scumball 3000 |
15:13.27 | cpufreak | fair enough |
15:13.42 | bilarh | lots of leaky cars? |
15:14.04 | bilarh | scumball 3000 is an excuse to go camping and get pissed in the evenings (for everyone but a designated driver, of course) :) |
15:14.07 | cpufreak | yeh |
15:14.16 | cpufreak | that said my car broke |
15:14.20 | cpufreak | guess how much this cost me: http://badger.ing.me.uk/hosed.jpg |
15:14.37 | bilarh | ooh, brake hose? |
15:15.06 | wethrin | Either considerably more than it should have, or almost bugger-all |
15:15.16 | bilarh | unless it's covered by the bmw warranty, i'd say it's about 30 quid for a goodridge hose |
15:15.22 | bilarh | plus optionally an armco charge :) |
15:15.32 | zaarg | 50p? |
15:15.42 | bilarh | we're all in suspense here |
15:17.04 | antiphase | He's yakking to someone else in the office at the moment |
15:17.12 | antiphase | Normal service will resume shortly |
15:17.16 | bilarh | can you stab him for us, please? |
15:17.20 | cpufreak | power steering hose |
15:17.25 | cpufreak | it cost me 5000quid |
15:17.30 | bilarh | armco? :) |
15:17.33 | cpufreak | no. |
15:17.44 | cpufreak | I avoided the armco |
15:17.57 | cpufreak | despite it pissing out on my rear wheels, causing a spin at 160km/h or so |
15:18.25 | bilarh | nice :) |
15:18.41 | bilarh | track closure? |
15:18.44 | zaarg | duct tape. |
15:18.45 | cpufreak | nope. |
15:18.52 | bilarh | runs out guesses |
15:19.37 | cpufreak | but whilst I stopped as soon as I realised the cause of the spin.. in that my power steering wasn't working, and steam was coming out |
15:19.47 | cpufreak | and a marshall behind me stopped and was flagginf or it |
15:19.54 | cpufreak | a biker went down, and I had to buy him a new bike |
15:20.11 | bilarh | arse :-\ |
15:20.15 | bilarh | is he ok? |
15:20.46 | cpufreak | yep |
15:20.47 | cpufreak | he's find |
15:20.49 | cpufreak | fine |
15:20.52 | cpufreak | he was a friend of a friend |
15:20.58 | cpufreak | and was really nice about it |
15:20.58 | bilarh | wouldn't insurance cover it anyway? |

15:21.07 | cpufreak | save that for when someone is hurt |
15:21.48 | bilarh | higher premiums + excess > 5k :S |
15:21.57 | cpufreak | no |
15:21.58 | cpufreak | just hassle |
15:22.04 | cpufreak | and talking to police and stuff == failure |
15:22.19 | cpufreak | he had a honda vtr 1000 sp1 |
15:22.24 | cpufreak | I've got him a SP2 |
15:22.30 | cpufreak | and new leathers, helmet, and gloves |
15:23.35 | bilarh | hmm, you're right.. 5k wouldn't be worth the hassle |
15:23.42 | bilarh | *rolleyes* ;-) |
15:24.30 | wethrin | 5k not worth hassle? I need a new job |
15:25.14 | bilarh | wethrin: ah, what's 5k between friends? it's not much more than the average house price fell in June ;-) |
15:25.49 | zaarg | gee, i need to get hit some time. |
15:26.09 | wethrin | mm |
15:27.03 | AndyMillar | cpufreak: you can get a new bike (and leathers/helmet) for under 5k? |

16:07.28 | ChoHag | No. |
16:07.36 | ChoHag | Very little time to even look. |
16:07.54 | ChoHag | I should look now, actually, while waiting for my wife to come home but it's too h |

16:30.18 | ChoHag | Haagen Dazs |
16:30.28 | Blapto | You're not really meant to eat entire tubs |
16:30.54 | ChoHag | I'm considering it though. |
16:31.10 | Blapto | Get thee to cwjobs |
16:33.04 | wethrin | Leave a spoonfull of ice cream in the bottom of the tub |
16:33.10 | wethrin | Then, technically, you haven't eaten the whole tub |
16:36.38 | ChoHag | Svitlana doesn't eat ice cream anyway. She won't know. |
16:37.06 | antiphase | In Soviet Russia, ice cream eats you |
16:37.47 | wethrin | nom nom |
16:38.15 | ChoHag | Probably. Good thing she's not fron Soviet Russia, eh? |

21:09.32 | DiscordianUK | hiya |
21:09.35 | Armand | How you doing? |
21:10.10 | DiscordianUK | So so trying to work out why my 64 bit spin of Fedora 9 failed |
21:10.20 | Armand | O_o |
21:10.30 | Armand | I haven't played with 64bit yet. |
21:10.53 | DiscordianUK | This is a 64 bit AMD x2 |
21:11.03 | DiscordianUK | I'm running 32 bit on it now |
21:11.21 | DiscordianUK | But I've a free partition for 64 bit |
21:12.06 | *** join/#gllug catalyst (n=catalyst@allegro/user/angelchild) |
21:12.38 | Armand | Doesn't it work straight off with F9 ? |
21:13.13 | DiscordianUK | It got about 66% in and started asking for a new DVD |
21:13.31 | Armand | huummm |
21:13.40 | Armand | I thought it was only 1 DVD O_o |
21:13.46 | DiscordianUK | it is |
21:13.54 | DiscordianUK | hence my surprise |
21:14.05 | AndyMillar | heh |
21:14.41 | Armand | I can imagine.. |
21:14.46 | DiscordianUK | I can't be downloading 4.3 Gb isos that often |
21:16.01 | Armand | I got the Live KDE ver, but I've only installed it on VM |
21:16.33 | DiscordianUK | I run 32 bit F9 on my boxes presently |
21:16.47 | DiscordianUK | I've only one box that could do 64 bit |
21:16.49 | Armand | Just thinking if I should use that (with KDE4 >_<) or Arch.. or PC-BSD. |
21:17.00 | Armand | I don't have any 64bit.. |
21:18.59 | DiscordianUK | It's a very cheap AMD 64 box I bought when I was last working |
21:19.00 | hali | arch is cute |
21:19.07 | hali | kde in arch is wrong tho :) |
21:19.13 | hali | arch is more fluxbox style |
21:19.31 | DiscordianUK | I like fluxbox |
21:19.38 | Armand | I've got the Arch DL, but I don't know.. |
21:19.48 | DiscordianUK | On small amounts of RAM it works very well |
21:20.40 | Armand | Well, I need to choose 1 distro.. mostly for my webserver, but something that I can use on anything. |
21:21.23 | DiscordianUK | For a webserver I'd suggest Centos rather than Fedora |
21:21.55 | DiscordianUK | But personally I'd avoid Centos for a desktop/laptop |
21:22.04 | Armand | I used F8 before, but I'm not so keen on package management on Fedora. |
21:22.47 | DiscordianUK | Then perhaps you should follow the dark side - debian/ubuntu |
21:26.12 | Armand | I've got Arch 2008.06 atm, plus I'm going to DL PC-BSD.. I'll try them both over the weekend. |
21:26.49 | DiscordianUK | What's PC BSD derived from? |
21:26.59 | hali | freebsd with desktop 'addons' |
21:27.15 | DiscordianUK | Ahhh FreeBSD is okay |
21:27.26 | Armand | And, a graphic installer! |
21:27.35 | DiscordianUK | I'd run not walk away from anything Theo has touched |
21:27.46 | Armand | ? |
21:29.01 | DiscordianUK | Theo de R is the chief architect of OpenBSD |
21:30.17 | Armand | Oh |
21:30.21 | Armand | Who? |
21:30.22 | Armand | :P |
21:31.46 | DiscordianUK | It's not important I guess |
21:31.53 | Armand | Not really. :) |
21:39.07 | Armand | >_< PC-BSD webby is being a bitch |
