| 08:06.42 | morsing | sabinef72! |
| 08:10.40 | bilarh | postie delivered my snail at 7am this morning :D |
| 08:11.18 | goibhniu | morsing! |
| 08:11.45 | sabinef72 | a snail ? |
| 08:12.07 | goibhniu | anyone know if you can undelete files from a fat partition with some linux magic? |
| 08:15.30 | bilarh | my new turbo, it looks like a snail :D |
| 08:18.24 | sabinef72 | ah ok |
| 08:24.06 | wethrin | Gah |
| 08:24.39 | wethrin | Dear Windows....if you claim you're running at 75Hz refresh, then FUCKING OUTPUT 75HZ!. You shower of shit. No love, Dan |
| 08:25.01 | antiphase | I didn't think people still used CRTs |
| 08:25.46 | wethrin | Clearly Windows doesn't think so either |
| 08:25.56 | wethrin | But I'm on an undergrad-lab computer |
| 08:26.03 | wethrin | And 60Hz hurts my eyes |
| 08:27.45 | bilarh | crt's are the shit... i hate lcd's |
| 08:28.11 | bilarh | if i had unlimited desk space, i'd have a 22" crt at like 1900x1400 or something |
| 08:28.42 | bilarh | i used to work with a 20" crt at 1600x1280 and that was great in emacs... three 80 character buffers side to side |
| 08:28.54 | wethrin | Thanks! |
| 08:29.03 | wethrin | What's wrong with LCDs? |
| 08:29.23 | bilarh | i just don't like the screen... it's not as bright as a crt |
| 08:29.29 | bilarh | and it doesn't seem to be as detailed as a really good crt |
| 08:29.40 | bilarh | the colours look dull |
| 08:29.57 | wethrin | That depends on the LCD :) |
| 08:30.05 | antiphase | I only use about 8 colours |
| 08:30.20 | antiphase | plus halfbrite of course, so maybe up to 16 |
| 08:30.21 | wethrin | Most of those being in your IRC window? |
| 08:30.25 | antiphase | yes |
| 08:30.32 | bilarh | possibly :-) That's just my experience of lcd's... i have yet to see an lcd that makes me go "whoa, nice screen" |
| 08:30.48 | wethrin | Seen the Apple Cinema displays? |
| 08:31.16 | wethrin | I was rather impressed that even when looking sideways-on at the monitor, there was no noticable colour changes |
| 08:32.33 | hali | bilarh: we just bought a bunch of 22" Dell widescreen LCD's at work... perfect to have three xterms side by side... and decent contrast |
| 08:33.06 | bilarh | wethrin: yeah the apple ones are better than run of the mill ones, but i still prefer crt's |
| 08:33.10 | hali | but i have to agree that a *really* good CRT probably gives a better all-round picture quaility |
| 08:33.43 | morsing | wethrin! You're up early |
| 08:33.48 | wethrin | morsing: I am. |
| 08:33.53 | bilarh | hali: yeah the dell ones are nice, but again... i think lcd's are a bit like sex with yourself... nice, but not as good as the real thing :) |
| 08:33.57 | wethrin | Back in teaching-labs again |
| 08:50.30 | wethrin | Hrm. I've got the refresh rate up to 70Hz, using the ATI-widget and setting it to 75Hz |
| 08:50.39 | wethrin | Why can't Windows just do as it's told? |
| 08:50.56 | wethrin | "Here, would you like to do this?" "Well, you can't. Nyerr. I'll do what I think is right." |
| 08:53.08 | bilarh | i hate the "nyerr" popups :( |
| 08:53.29 | bilarh | it's like the computer sticking two virtual fingers up at you :( |
| 08:53.45 | wethrin | Indeed |
| 09:31.12 | goibhniu | fatback wins!! |
| 09:58.30 | bilarh | oh no... i've finally done a "something if xxx" in perl :( |
| 09:58.45 | bilarh | and it looks better than if (xxx) { something } |
| 09:59.12 | bilarh | perl makes me lose the will to live sometimes |
| 09:59.58 | wethrin | That's rather functional-stylee |
| 10:00.21 | bilarh | yeah i know :) |
| 10:04.30 | bilarh | sorry, i just have to share this piece of perl with you :-) |
| 10:04.56 | bilarh | foreach (@_) { s/\r//g; chomp; s/^\s+//; s/\s+$//; next if (/^$/); |
| 10:04.57 | bilarh | m/^(.*?):(.*)$/; $_{$1} = $2; |
| 10:05.19 | bilarh | } |
| 10:05.36 | bilarh | you'd almost think it prints out "just another perl hacker" :P |
| 10:06.27 | bilarh | hmm, it looks better with line breaks |
| 10:06.54 | antiphase | Is that meant to be special? ;) |
| 10:08.02 | bilarh | well i just haven't written something that ugly for a while :-) |
| 10:08.19 | bilarh | thougth it was a bit of an opportunity for celebration :) |
| 10:08.33 | antiphase | If you want to be more horrible, you can write "next if (/^$/);" as "next unless /./;" |
| 10:09.06 | bilarh | <PROTECTED> |
| 10:09.20 | bilarh | i just can't get 'unless' to work with my head |
| 10:09.38 | bilarh | i always get that one the opposite when i read it |
| 10:09.49 | bilarh | but it's nice for convoluting stuff :) |
| 10:12.05 | antiphase | I prefer it to "if ( ! $foo )" |
| 10:12.52 | bilarh | hmm yeah i see what you mean, but it just doesn't work for me :-) |
| 10:13.33 | bilarh | i mean, really, it's nicer to write unless <blah> because it imples the not, but i just forget the not when i don't see it for some reason |
| 10:15.07 | antiphase | Whatever, Perl is better than shitty Python or Ruby |
| 10:16.51 | bilarh | totally :P |
| 10:16.59 | bilarh | ruby looks quite cool though |
| 10:17.09 | bilarh | and now there's that kaiser chef song as well :) |
| 10:17.59 | bilarh | i might train myself to growl instinctively when someone mentions the word python |

| 10:33.02 | bilarh | or a straight jacket |
| 10:40.56 | goibhniu | what's so good about ruby anyway ... Rails is a nice framework but what does ruby have over python? |

| 10:48.49 | bilarh | goibhniu: yeah it is... that's the one i played around with :D |
| 11:23.28 | boudiccas | The other day I removed two rpms [metakit and PyRTF]. I now suspect that they're needed by another rpm [gourmet] which does not now run. How can I find out if my suspicions are correct please? |
| 11:36.29 | goibhniu | in kde if you alt+tab does it switch between applications or windows ... i.e. if you're running the gimp and have a few windows open can you switch between them or does it go to another application? |
| 11:38.13 | goibhniu | boudiccas: I know there's a command to list the dependencies but I have no idea what it is ... you could also search on rpmfind or something I guess |
| 11:38.39 | bilarh | isn't it rpm -qi or something? |
| 11:39.07 | bilarh | -qR |
| 11:39.32 | boudiccas | goibhniu; it swicthes between applications not windows. that is [ctrl] + [Fx] |
| 11:39.46 | boudiccas | I've tried rpm -q gourmet (--provides --requires --whatprovides --whatrequires) |
| 11:39.46 | boudiccas | bash: syntax error near unexpected token `(' |
| 11:39.58 | bilarh | just do |
| 11:40.05 | bilarh | rpm -qR gourmet |
| 11:40.49 | boudiccas | bilarh; which gives me .... rpm -qR gourmet |
| 11:40.49 | boudiccas | rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1 |
| 11:40.49 | boudiccas | rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1 |
| 11:40.49 | boudiccas | /usr/bin/python |
| 11:41.18 | goibhniu | boudiccas: thanks ... that sounds cool actually! |
| 11:41.41 | boudiccas | goibhniu; you're welcome :) |
| 11:42.14 | bilarh | boudiccas: rpm -q --whatprovides rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) |
| 11:42.16 | bilarh | etc |
| 11:42.29 | bilarh | the thing is the spec file is wrong in that rpm gourmet if it still depends on those packages |
| 11:42.43 | bilarh | as rpm woulnd't have let you remove the packages if they were listed as dependencies |
| 11:42.49 | bilarh | unless you forced it to |
| 11:43.16 | bilarh | spec file = the file that is used to list various informatino about an rpm before it is built, e.g dependencies, where to install things etc |
| 11:43.39 | boudiccas | I don't know if it does depend on those packages, thats what I'm trying to find out. I removed them by .... rpm -e foobar |
| 11:45.38 | bilarh | i think that should have listed the dependencies if it gourmet did |
| 11:45.42 | bilarh | depend on them |
| 11:46.30 | boudiccas | ah, right. ty. so gourmet was broken before I removed metakit and pyrtf then. fiar enough |

| 15:13.10 | failure | the lenses might worth something |
| 15:13.39 | Leeds | morsing: are they branded? are they anything more than a simple ps/2 or usb keyboard? |
| 15:13.42 | morsing | Also, I've got a really expensive stereo I want to sell but again, it's about 15 years old |
| 15:13.43 | *** join/#gllug niv_one_1hree (n=niv@82.166.209.55) |
| 15:13.59 | morsing | Leeds: Nope, plain simple keyboards, nothing special |
| 15:14.03 | morsing | niv_one_1hree! |
| 15:14.30 | Leeds | then they'd be worth no more than, say, a fiver for the pair... and you'd be lucky to get that |
| 15:14.37 | morsing | When I say expensive I mean, CD, amp and radio which was 2200gbp as new |
| 15:15.00 | morsing | Would I be able to sell that on Ebay and get something decent for it? |
| 15:15.42 | morsing | cpufreak? |
| 15:15.52 | goibhniu | morsing: quite probably I'd say |
| 15:15.53 | failure | at least more than if you throw it away... |
| 15:16.06 | morsing | Are we talking 50 or 500gbp? |
| 15:16.14 | Leeds | morsing: you know sanelson is a (ex-) stereo expert |
| 15:16.18 | morsing | 50 and it's not worth it |
| 15:16.23 | morsing | Leeds: I didn't know that :) |
| 15:16.26 | failure | brand and model? |
| 15:16.27 | morsing | ping sanelson |
| 15:16.36 | morsing | failure: Sony Gold range |
| 15:16.37 | goibhniu | even the cables for high end hi-fi stuff could be worth a fortune |
| 15:17.13 | bilarh | morsing: sold the car yet? |
| 15:17.14 | clive-h | brand new keyboards in Comet or Currys are 5-7 quid for really basic ones |
| 15:17.46 | morsing | bilarh: Nope, didn't reach the reserve so not worth selling |
| 15:17.54 | morsing | Would get more selling it as parts |
| 15:18.13 | bilarh | morsing: yeah lots of people seem to scrap their own cars in england actually |
| 15:18.26 | failure | morsing: i guess you could get some 100s |
| 15:18.34 | bilarh | but it's a bit of an arsey job to strip parts off it, isn't it? |
| 15:18.48 | morsing | bilarh: Yes, and a shame since it's a very good car |
| 15:18.50 | bilarh | stripping a new car is easy, but stripping stuff of an old car is a pain in the balls |
| 15:19.09 | bilarh | how much are you expecting to get for it? |
| 15:19.39 | morsing | bilarh: Well, I put a buy-iit-now on it at 2250 but even that's a dissapointing price |
| 15:19.54 | bilarh | isn't it quite an old car though? |
| 15:20.26 | bilarh | have you had a look at some owners web sites? |
| 15:20.47 | bilarh | you might be lucky and find some odd ball who wants exactly the car you have :-) |
| 15:20.58 | bilarh | in which case it will sell for a premium :) |
| 15:21.33 | failure | which car is it? |
| 15:21.41 | bilarh | why don't you just keep it as a little summer car or something? |
| 15:22.25 | morsing | bilarh: A good condition model (NOT talking pristine) is about 6-8000 |
| 15:22.32 | morsing | bilarh: Can't afford it |
| 15:22.39 | morsing | bilarh: And storage as well |
| 15:22.49 | bilarh | ah :( |
| 15:22.59 | morsing | failure: 635CSi |
| 15:23.04 | morsing | Highline Motorsport |
| 15:23.18 | bilarh | well, if it's worth 6k, then surely you should be able to pawn it to someone for say 4k easily |
| 15:23.33 | bilarh | on like an enthusiasts' web site? |
| 15:24.01 | morsing | bilarh: Mine got starting rust on three wings and a small dent on one wing |
| 15:24.19 | morsing | bilarh: It's advertised on three or four websites |
| 15:24.26 | bilarh | ah right :( |
| 15:24.38 | morsing | BigCoupe, Pistonheads, Autotrader, Ebay |
| 15:24.48 | bilarh | any interest at all? |
| 15:24.59 | morsing | bilarh: Yes, but people back out all the time |
| 15:25.12 | morsing | No-one's even been to view it |
| 15:25.18 | bilarh | ah |
| 15:26.07 | morsing | http://www.morsing.cc/billed.php?STED=BMW_635CSi |
| 15:26.21 | morsing | bilarh: It's in good condition though and drives well |
| 15:27.41 | bilarh | love the loo roll in the boot :D |
| 15:27.45 | morsing | :) |
| 15:28.05 | morsing | Had just been shopping |
| 15:28.20 | bilarh | how much is it advertised for then? |
| 15:28.46 | boudiccas | lots of little flash designs to watch :) quite enjoyable actually ... http://www.webdesignservecesco.com/intro.html |
| 15:29.21 | morsing | bilarh: 2250 |
| 15:29.31 | morsing | bilarh: Yuo want it? |
| 15:30.02 | bilarh | no sorry :-) |
| 15:30.26 | morsing | Anyone after an ADSL modem? |
| 15:30.32 | bilarh | it looks nice and everything, but if i was to buy it, i'd think that it was 2250 quid for a g-reg car |
| 15:30.39 | morsing | Huh? |
| 15:30.42 | morsing | That's weird |
| 15:30.45 | bilarh | but that might be because i don't understand :-) |
| 15:30.55 | morsing | bilarh: I think it is... |
| 15:31.11 | bilarh | what else can you get for similar money with similar performance? |
| 15:31.22 | morsing | Like same age or new? |
| 15:31.26 | morsing | Or older? |
| 15:31.32 | bilarh | similar age |
| 15:31.36 | bilarh | or newer |
| 15:31.42 | bilarh | or a bit older but more performance |
| 15:32.06 | morsing | Don't really know to be honest... It's performance was quite good at the time |
| 15:32.14 | morsing | Escort RS2000? |
| 15:32.29 | bilarh | how much are things like early m3's nowadays? |
| 15:32.33 | morsing | Although I hate Ford, the old 70s rear wheels drives are cool |
| 15:32.43 | bilarh | i'd love an old cortina or escort :D |
| 15:32.47 | bilarh | the old old escort that is |
| 15:32.53 | bilarh | the round one |
| 15:33.14 | morsing | Like an E30? Not sure but with rust it would be cheaper than mine |
| 15:33.37 | morsing | The E24 is extremely desirable, pretty much the BMW of all time to go for |
| 15:34.05 | bilarh | i'd probably get an old 2002 turbo to be honest :-) |
| 15:34.12 | bilarh | mainly because i like the shape of them |
| 15:34.15 | bilarh | in m-sport colours |
| 15:34.25 | morsing | Hmm... Or an 3.0CSL? |
| 15:34.30 | cpufreak | E30s aren't cheap |
| 15:34.35 | cpufreak | good E30s are like 12k now |
| 15:34.37 | cpufreak | E36s are cheap |
| 15:34.38 | morsing | Yes they are... |
| 15:34.40 | bilarh | yeah i was thinking that too |
| 15:34.44 | bilarh | because they're the classic m3 |
| 15:34.45 | cpufreak | good E30 M3s aren't cheap. |
| 15:34.50 | morsing | cpufreak: Good E24s are a lot as well |
| 15:34.58 | morsing | E36s are crap |
| 15:35.01 | cpufreak | E36s are a bargain |
| 15:35.06 | cpufreak | the E36 M3 GT is decent |
| 15:35.28 | cpufreak | and they can be made into great cars with a little work. |
| 15:37.21 | bilarh | how much is a e36 m3 gt then? |
| 15:37.21 | morsing | Well, E30 M3s on Pistonheads are about 6k max |
| 15:37.36 | morsing | An E24 M6 would be 15k or so |
| 15:37.41 | morsing | In that condition |
| 15:38.16 | bilarh | there's only a couple of beemers i'd consider though, one of them being an M1, but i'm guessing they're serious wonga |
| 15:52.55 | bilarh | failure: yeah i reported the fault to our systems support team, but they haven't fixed it yet :( |
| 15:53.20 | failure | oh shit... we will have to wait again... |
| 15:53.57 | failure | actually... i would need to FF to next friday... |
| 15:54.26 | failure | it's going to be a long week... |
| 15:56.35 | boudiccas | morsing; you've photographed your car so well that I really feel that I know it :) |
| 16:03.35 | bilarh | hey people... if i have an apache rewrite log... |
| 16:03.52 | bilarh | what does the rid#255235 number actually refer to? |
| 16:04.50 | bilarh | mmmm beer |

| 21:43.12 | failure | i don't know why they limit the sampling rate |

| 21:45.31 | failure | what don't you understand? |
| 21:46.27 | goibhniu | that the problem was the java implementation |
| 21:47.31 | failure | the api, doesn't allow you to play sounds with a good sampling rate |
| 21:48.03 | failure | so you could decode the ogg, downsample it, and play it |
