| 08:04.49 | bleachin | Hi folks, has the mailing list gone down? |
| 08:07.03 | bilarh | i should hope not, i rely on it to fill my inbox with off-topic discussions and rants |
| 08:08.17 | bleachin | not had any mails for a couple of days, but I did change my mail address so want to check its not that. Also I couldn't access the online archives either but that could be me being stupid aswell |
| 08:08.42 | bilarh | actually, i haven't received anything for a while either |
| 08:08.50 | bilarh | so it's entirely possible it's down |
| 08:08.59 | bilarh | wethrin will be along shortly and fix it, probably |
| 08:09.07 | bilarh | he is the list admin, isn't he? |
| 08:09.46 | Leeds | not really, no |
| 08:09.51 | Leeds | it's hosted by ukfsn |
| 08:09.53 | bleachin | I have no idea who is these days |
| 08:09.55 | bilarh | ah ok, i got the impression he was |
| 08:12.45 | Leeds | he is de facto the admin of gllug as a whole, being the only person who has done anything for the group in a while |
| 08:15.11 | zaarg | morning |
| 08:16.49 | Leeds | also, the website (there's a website???) is broken |
| 08:45.24 | bleachin | http://lists.gllug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/gllug |
| 08:46.15 | wethrin | Hm. FAIL. |
| 08:46.20 | wethrin | Shout at Jason |
| 08:51.08 | wethrin | Hrm. The mailing list breaks far too often |
| 08:51.17 | wethrin | It's not the best advert for Jason, really |
| 09:02.18 | Leeds | wethrin: what is the best advert for him? |
| 09:02.30 | wethrin | Umm |
| 09:02.55 | wethrin | I'm not sure |

| 12:42.32 | bilarh | todays health and safety rant: |
| 12:42.44 | gregj | wethrin: http://deser.gazeta.pl/deser/1,83453,5475486,Dobre_rady_dla_Polakow_w_Wielkiej_Brytanii.html |
| 12:42.50 | bilarh | the hot water in our kitchen taps in the office has been cut off due to health and safety risks |
| 12:43.20 | wethrin | bilarh: Someone could get burned? |
| 12:43.26 | bilarh | wehtrin: presumably |
| 12:43.28 | bilarh | fucking retards |
| 12:44.42 | wethrin | Well, stick a sign up saying "Caution: HOT" |
| 12:45.03 | bilarh | it's so retarded i'm struggling to find words to describe it |
| 12:45.26 | wethrin | Just email back saying "What H&S risk?" |
| 12:45.57 | bilarh | their address is noreply@blah.com |
| 12:46.04 | bilarh | or it might as well, they don't listen anyway :) |
| 12:46.07 | gregj | caution: fucking hot |
| 12:46.20 | bilarh | the H&S overlords know better anyway |
| 12:47.04 | wethrin | Well, some hot water from taps will actually scald. In which case, putting a sign up isn't unreasonable |
| 12:47.26 | dick_turpin | bilarh: I saw something on the TV a couple of days ago that would have got your blood boiling I need to sit and remember what it was, but it was bloody silly |
| 12:47.46 | bilarh | dick_turpin: yo mum? |
| 12:47.48 | bilarh | :) |
| 12:47.58 | dick_turpin | bilarh: Big Boy :-) |
| 12:48.25 | bilarh | wethrin: i still think it's unreasonable... i don't want to be wrapped up in cotton wool all my life |
| 12:48.42 | bilarh | wethrin: if i stick my hand in hot water from a tap and scald myself, it's my own damn fault |
| 12:49.03 | wethrin | bilarh: Is it? A *lot* of 'hot' taps barely have water above room temperature |
| 12:49.37 | wethrin | And so if something's actually ridiculously hot, it's worth mentioning it |
| 12:49.39 | bilarh | wethrin: yeah but honestly if it's really hot, you can feel it way before you stick your hand in it |
| 12:50.02 | wethrin | Depends on the taps. Not the ones that we have in the Physics department here |
| 12:50.10 | wethrin | Where you just push on it to make the water flow |
| 12:50.59 | bilarh | what's the push got to do with the water being hot? |
| 12:51.23 | wethrin | gregj: A guideline for Poles living in UK? |
| 12:51.26 | gregj | wethrin: yup |
| 12:51.41 | wethrin | drink tea, be polite, complain about the weather... |
| 12:52.00 | gregj | wethrin: cos, many of us think that if brit asks 'how are you', it means - we have to list all our illneses (?), and things like that |
| 12:52.01 | bilarh | polite, lol :) |
| 12:52.15 | gregj | yeah, whine about weather, - so typical |
| 12:52.29 | gregj | ;] |
| 12:52.35 | wethrin | "Can't complain" |
| 12:52.41 | dick_turpin | Did you see that guy (about 10 years ago) sued McDonalds for burning his mouth on a Burger, he won! |
| 12:53.01 | bilarh | dick_turpin: it's all new labours fault |
| 12:53.03 | wethrin | It was someone spilling coffee on her lap |
| 12:53.13 | wethrin | Hence the Stella Awards (google it) |
| 12:53.28 | dick_turpin | wethrin: Yeah that was another one I think |
| 12:53.46 | dick_turpin | I still cant remember that news item dam dam dam |
| 12:58.01 | dick_turpin | Found it |
| 12:58.20 | dick_turpin | I read it not saw it |
| 12:58.24 | dick_turpin | http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/2307275/'Ridiculous'-health-and-safety-rules-tell-carpenters-to-ban-the-broom.html |
| 12:58.46 | dick_turpin | bilarh: Pick the bones outa that one :-D |
| 13:00.59 | bilarh | can now be found huddled up and crying in the corner |
| 13:03.25 | dick_turpin | bilarh: Man when I saw it I thought of you |
| 13:03.44 | bilarh | bring back common sense |
| 13:03.45 | wethrin | GAH |
| 13:04.06 | wethrin | So wear a fucking face mask! |
| 13:04.10 | bilarh | i mean why don't these H&S people just go out and get laid or something |
| 13:04.11 | wethrin | Seriously, if I suffered from asthma, I'd wear a mask when drilling |
| 13:04.21 | bilarh | they'd be a lot less up tight if they did |
| 13:04.23 | wethrin | bilarh: Think of the forms they'd have to fill in before they could do that! |
| 13:04.24 | dick_turpin | wethrin: Ah they are banned too, restricts air intake :-) |
| 13:05.32 | wethrin | remembers one episode of QI, when they werent' allowed to inhale helium: "The four worst words in the English language: health and fucking safety" |
| 13:05.43 | bilarh | wethrin: yeah condoms are rubbish :-\ |
| 13:05.54 | wethrin | What if you're allergic to latex? |
| 13:05.54 | wethrin | EH? |
| 13:06.04 | bilarh | that's what i'm saying |
| 13:06.09 | bilarh | it's safer not to use any |
| 13:06.20 | wethrin | Disease risk! |
| 13:07.17 | wethrin | So, think of H&FS matters, I'm going to need to use Powerpoint |
| 13:08.36 | bilarh | my mother was obviously a careless one... i was allowed to go outside and play in the garden |
| 13:08.36 | dick_turpin | WE have a customer who makes an absolute fortune out of giving H&S training and talks |
| 13:08.41 | bilarh | and, i was allowed to cycle on the road |
| 13:09.04 | bilarh | and, i was even allowed to go ice skating (extreme sports at an early age!!) |
| 13:09.06 | bilarh | etc etc |
| 13:09.31 | bilarh | i'm surprised anyone survived childhood earlier, before the H&S safety net was about |
| 13:09.32 | dick_turpin | Snow is now banned as is ice |

| 13:15.34 | dick_turpin | Here's a serious question for once from me:I have a Toshiba laptop with an SD card slot what driver, module or command would I need to use it? |
| 13:16.04 | dick_turpin | I stuck my 2GB SD card in but nothing happened |
| 13:16.04 | mindbendr | dick_turpin: what distro |
| 13:16.10 | dick_turpin | ArchLinux |
| 13:16.25 | dick_turpin | I know "FO and ask there" |
| 13:16.39 | mindbendr | dick_turpin: if it doesn't load it, (check dmesg) you could find the necessary scsi module for that and load it with `modprobe` |
| 13:16.51 | mindbendr | lsmod also might help |
| 13:17.09 | mindbendr | if it's already loaded, all you need to do is, mounting it. I haven't used an sd card before though. |
| 13:17.13 | dick_turpin | Yeah I did do dmesg but the last entry was sound |
| 13:17.27 | mindbendr | dmesg | more |
| 13:17.30 | mindbendr | and look for scsi |
| 13:17.38 | dick_turpin | Ah |
| 13:17.42 | mindbendr | even dmesg | less |
| 13:17.50 | mindbendr | type /scsi |
| 13:17.58 | mindbendr | it will search for it |
| 13:18.20 | mindbendr | or you can lsscsi if it's installed |
| 13:18.26 | mindbendr | and look up whether is it loaded or not |
| 13:18.28 | dick_turpin | Ended up sticking the card in another guy's camera, hooking that up to the laptop and transfering images that way |
| 13:19.16 | dick_turpin | mindbendr: Thx I'll try that tonight |
