| 10:30.50 | mozrat | sdeel! |
| 10:30.56 | Cope | ooh a mozrat |
| 10:31.01 | mozrat | Cope! |
| 10:31.11 | mozrat | how does Saturday find you? |
| 10:31.17 | Leeds | afternoon |
| 10:31.25 | Leeds | leaving soon :-) |
| 10:31.35 | mozrat | http://douweosinga.com/projects this really is a clever chap |
| 10:31.36 | Leeds | spent all day on a course learning about colour |
| 10:51.05 | Cope | Leeds: we just sold a SCO system |
| 10:51.27 | Cope | big oracle cluster running SCO, Veritas and Orrible. |
| 10:51.30 | Cope | ;) |
| 10:54.40 | Leeds | sold as in to a customer, or sold as in got rid of? |
| 10:55.28 | Leeds | anyway, /me gone... |
| 10:56.37 | George | mozrat: lessons on a saturday... |
| 10:56.53 | mozrat | your school sucks |
| 10:57.58 | z00dax | hi guys |
| 10:58.05 | z00dax | $TZGreetings |
| 10:58.07 | mozrat | hi z00dax |
| 10:58.44 | George | mozrat: standard for public school... |
| 10:58.49 | George | mozrat: I get 3 half days a week though :D |
| 10:58.58 | mozrat | George: ah, not so bad then |
| 10:59.09 | mozrat | studying 6 days a week isn't so cool |
| 10:59.15 | George | studying? |
| 10:59.16 | George | HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH |
| 11:00.12 | George | I spent my physics lesson today writing "F = \frac{G m_1 m_2}{r^2} \\ INNIT" on my sheet of paper :) |
| 11:00.16 | z00dax | hey mozrat |
| 11:01.36 | mozrat | z00dax: how do you like your new job then? |
| 11:02.13 | z00dax | mozrat: so far, been cool |
| 11:02.58 | z00dax | for one, the work culture is excellent |
| 11:03.30 | mozrat | where are they based? |
| 11:04.42 | z00dax | http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=E14+9TS&spn=0.011802,0.031393&hl=en |
| 11:04.58 | z00dax | right across the Harbour Exchange Square |
| 11:04.59 | mozrat | very nice :) |
| 11:05.16 | z00dax | the commute into work sux' big time :( |
| 11:05.23 | mozrat | :( |
| 11:05.28 | z00dax | I am going to need to move (a) closer to work (b) North of the river |
| 11:05.56 | z00dax | spending an average 2.5hrs /day sitting in the car is way too much wasted time |
| 11:06.39 | mozrat | yeah |
| 11:06.55 | mozrat | I have to commute about that much by train, it isn't fun |
| 11:07.00 | mozrat | well 90m each way |
| 11:07.16 | mozrat | Elm Park => Mile End => Lancaster Gate |
| 11:07.30 | z00dax | I guess the train might be a bit better, laptop is usable, books readable etc |
| 11:07.52 | mozrat | laptop would be usable if I could get a seat which is fairly rare |
| 11:07.59 | mozrat | books I'll agree on |
| 11:08.15 | mozrat | PaperCuttingFellowCommuters++ |
| 11:08.25 | z00dax | :) |
| 11:10.07 | z00dax | btw, whats the deal with those MP3 player / iPod ->FM Transmitters ? |
| 11:10.21 | mozrat | illegal, but usable |
| 11:10.26 | z00dax | someone was saying they might not be on the right side of the law |
| 11:10.28 | z00dax | ah |
| 11:10.43 | mozrat | no they broadcast on restricted frequencies |
| 11:10.58 | mozrat | you are basically a pirate radio station when you use them, but of course the signal is much lower |
| 11:11.17 | mozrat | so you are really only broadcasting to yourself, and your train carriage |
| 11:11.22 | mozrat | or the car next to you |
| 11:11.32 | mozrat | but it interferes on licenced paid for radio frequencies |
| 11:11.55 | mozrat | I don't think there is a problem from an emergency services POV but I maybe wrong |
| 11:13.12 | George | I NEED MORE MATHS |
| 11:13.18 | Blapto | Legal to own but not to use, wireless communication act. |
| 11:13.51 | Blapto | or perhaps telegraphy act, I forget. |
| 11:14.36 | z00dax | what about availabilty in the area ? |
| 11:14.42 | Blapto | They use the FM band which is strictly regulated. |
| 11:14.48 | Blapto | well, not the FM band |
| 11:15.04 | Blapto | the band that FM radio uses, I forget the exact frequency range. Anyway, they're illegal to use in the UK. |
| 11:15.28 | Blapto | http://www.ofcom.org.uk/media/mofaq/rcomms/itrip/?a=87101 |
| 11:15.58 | z00dax | if the transmittion power is so low, what are the changes of someone actually making a noise about this |
| 11:17.00 | Blapto | Oh, nobody will notice, the idea is that you tune it to an unused frequency for the area you're in, so another car won't be tuned in anway. |
| 11:17.18 | George | mmm, mars bar. |
| 11:17.35 | Blapto | The trick is to get it into the country, you need to be able to say that you're not going to use it, you only want to use it for a modern art project or something. Customs are wankers on the whole. |
| 11:17.45 | Blapto | brb |
| 11:19.22 | mozrat | Child Obeseness is rife today George, it's for your own good |
| 11:19.39 | z00dax | I hate celery |
| 11:19.47 | mozrat | noooo |
| 11:19.51 | mozrat | celery good |
