08:57.56yaMattLeeds, eep!
08:58.05yaMattthey really do know how to aim directly for HK
08:59.08Leedsthis is (forecast to be) the closest thing to a direct hit in a while
08:59.46Leedshad a couple of sideswipes so far this year, no real effect other than a bit of wind and rain
09:00.24yaMattthey all look pretty close on that map
09:00.31yaMattor is that from different agencies?
09:03.41Leedsright, it's a combo map of different forecasts for a single storm

11:01.30ChoHagThe two things we've learned about artificial intelligence over the last 40-50 years have been (1) It's a really hard problem and (2) Whenever anybody solves any part of it, like character recognition or speech synthesis or whatever, everybody says "Of course, that's not really AI, it's just solving _____, and AI's still a long ways off."

12:02.53dick_turpinBack on my planet we still hate Toni Blackburn
12:55.44resudaedrandom question ... I want to tunnel or vnc or somesuch technology individual windows from a windows vm to my nix desktop.  Anyone know of any such software or any ideas?
12:59.12yaMattI'm not certain you can, it doesn't work quite the same way as X does
12:59.17yaMattin Windows
12:59.42resudaedvirtualbox does 'seamless mode', works pretty well but I'm stuck with kvm in this instance
13:01.17yaMattwow, yeah, so it does
13:01.26yaMattnot a clue how it does that
13:02.17resudaednope, me neither and googling for similar stuff isn't easy ... M$ named their OS after the concept so searching for something to do with a window on windows is fruitless
13:03.51yaMattand kvm is also a terrible thing to search for
13:04.51dick_turpinYou could use Cygwin possibly http://www.cygwin.com/
13:04.53yaMattso looks like RDP does now support single windows, but it's pretty new and you're unlikely to find support for it
13:05.07yaMatthttp://serverfault.com/questions/217074/seamless-mode-remote-desktop-connection-from-linux-to-windows
13:05.46resudaeddick_turpin: what exactly did you mean by using cygwin?
13:06.06resudaedrun an ssh server and -X ??
13:06.16yaMatthmm... rdesktop has the -S flag which is close
13:08.04yaMattthis looks promising http://www.cendio.com/seamlessrdp/
13:09.40dick_turpinresudaed: Yes
13:10.38resudaeddoes that work for native windows apps?
13:15.20dick_turpinNo idea
14:53.05kjswhat chairs are you guys using?
14:53.21kjsiv had another cheap chair fail, need to get something decent.
14:54.31yaMattwe have those fancy 'sexy' chairs here at work, I forget what they're called, but all the coding houses love them, but they're shit
14:54.49yaMattAeron
14:59.48resudaeddon't know what these are, but they're crap.  Also not a fan of the Aerons
15:00.31dick_turpinMines a Staples black genuine imitation leather swivel job with arm wrests
15:11.33*** part/#gllug resudaed (~tom@62.189.100.228)
15:45.31kjsyaMatt: they are shit?
15:45.44kjshmm
15:45.55kjsi was planning on getting one but they are 1k
15:46.18yaMattheheh, yeah, expensive too
15:46.21yaMatttotally not worth the money
15:47.29yaMattthey are pretty comfy, no complaints from sitting on them all day, but I've never had any problems with most chairs
15:47.41dick_turpin£1K for a fooking chair! I hope it gives you personal relief as well for that price!
15:47.51Leedsif you're sitting in the chair all day without breaks, you're doing something wrong anyway
15:53.34kjsLeeds: yesh working too hard?
15:53.58kjsyeah 1k for a chair, id rather spend 1k than have a crippled spine  tbh
