| [02:17] <Bashing-om> pauljw: Yeah, The quality has been commendable . | |
| [02:19] <pauljw> seem to be holding their own. | |
| [02:25] <Bashing-om> EriC^^: The big 'E" has arrived .. Good for us ! | |
| [02:26] <EriC^^> :) | |

| [02:28] <EriC^^> i'm ok | |
| [02:29] <EriC^^> was sleeping and woke up to a thunderstorm, they're rare here | |
| [02:29] <EriC^^> it's one lightning after another like a stroboscope outside O.o | |
| [02:30] <Bashing-om> EriC^^: Times like that I know to shut the systems down and unplug ! Lightening is unforgiving too . | |
| [02:31] <EriC^^> that's a good idea | |
| [02:32] <EriC^^> i'll remove them | |
| [02:34] <Bashing-om> I live at the top of a mountain ... highest point .. lighteneing has done a number here more than just once ! | |
| [02:37] <EriC^^> i see | |
| [02:37] <EriC^^> i've removed everything from electricity | |
| [02:38] <EriC^^> i imagine in the morning "why is everything not turning on? wtf?" | |
| [02:38] <EriC^^> lol and i'm in my sleep and cussing is going on in the house | |
| [02:40] <Bashing-om> Hah ! Better bleary eyed and catching up that spending big bucks replaceing hardware . | |
| [02:41] <EriC^^> yeah :D | |
| [02:42] <Bashing-om> EriC^^: ya ninja's me with BlastRed . Fast on the fingers huh ? | |
| [02:43] <EriC^^> what's his issue? | |

| [02:51] <EriC^^> i see | |
| [03:53] <OerHeks> postfix configuration for the harddrive ... | |
| [05:27] <lotuspsychje> good morning to all | |
| [11:57] <daftykins> new toys! https://www.dropbox.com/sh/rj9p21r6jowb4o7/AACkI5b027SctsMRNppGZLfOa?dl=0 | |
| [11:57] <daftykins> £160 27" HannsG 2560x1440 IPS LCD arrived :) | |
| [11:57] <lordievader> 2560x1440 is nice :) | |
| [11:58] <daftykins> not for me, just ordered in for someone... but nice to see | |
| [11:58] <daftykins> it was even a hassle getting it to display over HDMI correctly on Windows ;) | |
| [12:28] <lordievader> I like having lots of screen estate. | |
| [12:42] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all | |
| [12:57] <daftykins> hallo o/ | |
| [13:11] <BluesKaj> hey daftykins | |
| === Pici` is now known as Pici | |
| [17:58] <daftykins> TJ-: heya o/ | |
| [17:58] <TJ-> Evening :) | |
| [17:58] <OerHeks> :-) | |
| [18:02] <daftykins> https://www.dropbox.com/s/6vgbr5ix7pqj459/IMG_20151117_171517.jpg?dl=0 | |
| [18:02] <daftykins> still playing with this 27" thing :) | |
| [18:02] <daftykins> hmm i forget TJ- can't view those links without hassle! | |
| [18:04] <daftykins> http://techblo.gg/stuff/lcd.jpg | |
| [18:04] <daftykins> there's a tad more sane version | |
| [18:04] <TJ-> It amazes me; an organisation depends on another externally controlled server for its core product - in this case ajax.googleapis.com | |
| [18:05] <daftykins> mmm that's annoying | |
| [18:05] <daftykins> some have sworn off dropbox because that ex-government person Condoleeza Rice is on their exec board o0 | |
| [18:05] <TJ-> looks like the larger monitor ought to be above the other 2 :) | |
| [18:05] <daftykins> can't say i saw a reason there though | |
| [18:05] <daftykins> haha, well i bought this in for a client y'see, so it's just getting 'testing' right now | |
| [18:06] <daftykins> amusingly only my desktop can drive this 27" with its' native 2560x1440, and even then only if i turn off one of my two | |
| [18:06] <TJ-> I generally won't use any service that depends on external servers - shows the directors have no concept of controlling their quality and core value | |
| [18:06] <TJ-> is the GPU capable of driving more than 2 heads at once? | |
| [18:07] <daftykins> nope | |
| [18:07] <TJ-> many only have 2 outputs at once | |
| [18:07] <daftykins> only two TMDS signal converters on-die | |
| [18:07] <TJ-> right. That's why I have the Quadro with dual GPUs, to drive 4 heads | |
| [18:07] <daftykins> makes me laugh this panel came with VGA, since that can't drive >2048x1536 iirc | |
| [18:08] <TJ-> analog can get some very high resolutions, more than some digital outputs | |
| [18:09] <daftykins> RAMDACs used to be limited to the 2048 res though, or maybe more so the VGA cable MHz rating? *shrug* | |
| [18:09] <daftykins> i've not tried VGA, could be fun for a laugh | |
| [18:10] <TJ-> RAMDAC frequencies was the top limit, but bad cables could cause some terrible crosstalk and ghosting/wobble | |
| [18:12] <daftykins> it's funny that i've owned these Dell 2408 LCDs since 2008, with all the inputs under the sun, yet still haven't owned anything with displayport to make use of it :) | |
| [18:12] <daftykins> old v1.1 though it is | |
| [18:15] <TJ-> I've got the U2412 and the same; but what I like is they take 12V DC input | |
| [18:18] <daftykins> :) | |
| [18:18] <daftykins> http://vrworld.com/2015/11/16/nvidia-unveils-pascal-gpu-16gb-of-memory-1tbs-bandwidth/ | |
| [18:18] <daftykins> ooh nvidia's stab at HBM tech | |
| [18:30] <TJ-> trying to rsync 64GB from android phone over MTP; looks like it'll take a few days! | |
| [18:31] <daftykins> ugh | |
| [18:31] <daftykins> even on Windows when i've done backups of phones before wiping, it takes forever just counting the data before a copy starts | |
| [18:32] <daftykins> ooh i'm getting a free LG Nexus 5 soon, it has a smashed screen but i ordered one from Hong Kong on ebay for £26 :) | |
| [18:36] <TJ-> Good plan | |
| [18:41] <daftykins> hope it works out, 'official' LCDs with digitizer and panel etc are listed for more like £90 | |
| [19:03] <daftykins> if only Elementary didn't exist :) | |
| [19:05] <Bashing-om> elementry is close, but no chocolate chip cookies ! | |
| [19:07] <daftykins> that's true | |
| === EriC^^ is now known as eeee | |
| [20:15] <daftykins> OerHeks: i'm not sure that WMV or WMA have to have DRM, i think they can be without too, no? | |
| [20:16] <OerHeks> Yes, with and without | |
| [21:45] <OerHeks> themes problems should be top priority, guys. | |
| [21:46] <OerHeks> we are losing 1000+ users per hour | |
| [21:46] <daftykins> :D | |
| [22:11] * daftykins sings whilst doing maintenance | |
| [22:12] <OerHeks> that game0 dude is annoying, earlier in #ubuntu-touch he was insulting volunteers, but they have a policy to be nice,not ban. | |
| [22:14] <daftykins> mmm i wasn't very impressed with the things being said | |
| [23:41] <OerHeks> daftykins, it is your fault that his celeron is slow. | |
| [23:41] <OerHeks> :-D | |
| [23:41] <OerHeks> man, some don't want help | |
| [23:41] <daftykins> maybe if i give it a cookie? | |
| [23:41] <daftykins> just because it came from Vista era though, it shouldn't be slow :/ | |
| [23:42] <daftykins> maybe it has a faulty hard disk / shouldn't be running unity | |
| [23:42] <OerHeks> celeron single core perhaps | |
| [23:42] <daftykins> yeah, low cache celeron + low RAM = swap++ | |
