| 08:58.47 | ChoHag | Yay SuSE! |
| 08:59.00 | ChoHag | Bomb out to recovery console and then vi segfaults. |
| 09:04.19 | ChoHag | Ahh now \ doesn't work! |
| 09:27.25 | hali | i have one suse box at work, it's weird |
| 09:27.30 | hali | sles9 though so quite old |
| 09:27.39 | hali | i've given up on package management on it |
| 09:27.48 | hali | usually resolve to building stuff myself |
| 09:28.54 | bilarh | hali: did you get the bash stuff working? |
| 09:29.23 | hali | bilarh: yep, i did an ugly version that just cut the last thre chars before i saw yours :-) i couldn't be arsed to change it |
| 09:29.35 | hali | i'll paste it later, it looks like lisp |
| 09:29.42 | hali | big stack of ( and { |
| 09:29.52 | bilarh | bash regexps suck |
| 09:29.55 | bilarh | use perl |
| 09:29.57 | hali | the lack of thereof :) |
| 09:30.27 | hali | this was for an init script, i'm bringing up some cluster ip's when starting apache |
| 09:30.28 | bilarh | they just seem to ugly and unwieldy |
| 09:30.38 | bilarh | ah |
| 09:30.47 | bilarh | do you start apache often enough to warrant not shelling out to awk? :P |
| 09:31.00 | hali | no, that was mostly me just being anal :P |
| 09:32.03 | hali | hm, power failure at interxion last night |
| 09:40.19 | bilarh | bloody hell, spain is doing even worse than the uk.... "The number of people out of work in Spain increased by 199,000, or 6%, in January from the previous month, official figures show" |
| 09:40.27 | bilarh | 6% jump in a month in unemployment :S |
| 09:41.00 | hali | i like the plan they have in china |
| 09:41.08 | hali | 20 million jobs lost since dec |
| 09:41.10 | bilarh | which is? |
| 09:41.15 | hali | they are building theme parks to keep people happy |
| 09:41.18 | bilarh | that's like 0.1% or something isn't it :) |
| 09:41.26 | bilarh | i could do with that :) |
| 09:41.47 | bilarh | "i haven't got enough money to buy food to eat, but at least there's this really cool roller coaster" :D |

| 09:59.34 | antiphase | Unlikely |

| 10:00.31 | antiphase | If it's that sort of demo |
| 10:00.48 | ChoHag | And if it's not? |
| 10:01.12 | antiphase | Depends what you get for 500 quid |

| 10:36.37 | mindbendr | morsing! |
| 11:05.26 | kjs | mornign |
| 11:08.45 | bilarh | so, i finally ended up sticking the subaru in a bush today thanks to the ice |
| 11:08.58 | bilarh | coming down steep hill at less than walking pace |
| 11:09.09 | bilarh | back end lets go |
| 11:09.27 | bilarh | swings me 90 degrees to the left |
| 11:09.37 | bilarh | taking up the whole road |
| 11:10.00 | bilarh | so i decided to stick the car in the bush to stop it sliding further down the hill and hitting a tree or something at greater speed |
| 11:10.36 | bilarh | thankfully it stopped with only some snow in the vents as the only damage |
| 11:12.57 | bilarh | i might invest in some winter tyres for next year |
| 11:16.23 | ChoHag | It won't snow next year. |
| 11:20.18 | bilarh | it's still useful to have winter tyres when it's cold |
| 11:21.10 | morsing | Snow tyres != Winter tyres |
| 11:22.01 | morsing | It's amazing people can't understand that concept |
| 11:22.24 | antiphase | You need some double hard studded bastards |
| 11:22.33 | morsing | Even on my car forums they're puzzled by this |
| 11:22.33 | antiphase | OR just don't drive down icy hills, duh :P |
| 11:25.42 | wethrin | antiphase: What, avoid hills by driving in the Netherlands? :) |
| 11:26.13 | bilarh | studded tyres would be the shit now |
| 11:26.17 | bilarh | imagine the drifting you could do :D |
| 11:26.24 | bilarh | at the moment i can only do slooooow drifts |
| 11:26.33 | bilarh | well, not faster than 25-30 mph anyway |
| 11:26.44 | bilarh | and even that feels a bit uncontrolled as the back end is just *so* lose |
| 11:27.11 | bilarh | it's odd, the subaru has a very rwd'y feel to it |
| 11:28.06 | bilarh | or at least it does, until you're almost losing the back end at which point the front tyres grip in again |
| 11:28.10 | bilarh | must be that stupid viscous diff |
| 11:28.34 | bilarh | i wonder if it could be upgraded to a mechanical one instead |
| 11:28.54 | bilarh | although that's probably a bad idea for anything but ice driving |
| 11:30.43 | antiphase | You want Torsen diffs all round really |
| 11:31.08 | bilarh | is that some kind of lockable one? |
| 11:31.15 | bilarh | or one that locks up quicker than a viscous? |
| 11:31.22 | antiphase | Torque biasing |
| 11:31.36 | bilarh | what does that actually mean? |
| 11:31.55 | antiphase | Probably not much if you have no grip at all :D |
| 11:32.02 | bilarh | hehe |
| 11:32.16 | antiphase | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsen |
| 11:32.17 | bilarh | i think the solution to the problem is better tyres actually |
| 11:32.20 | bilarh | probably cheaper as well |
| 11:34.05 | gregj | Toyo! |
| 11:34.30 | bilarh | toyo slicks for the win(ter) |
| 11:39.15 | an0key | Toyo T1 Proxies, I've had on my car for years... they dont seem to go down (tread)... very recommended |
| 11:40.40 | mindbendr | i take the train, they don't go down if it doesn't snow |
| 11:40.50 | mindbendr | i highly recommend it |
| 11:51.59 | an0key | unless there are leaves or some other terrible thing like that on the track |
| 11:52.55 | wethrin | Or there's rain, or sun, or.... |
| 11:56.05 | an0key | Teh best one is, I usually get a txt, saying my usual train is running late due to 'staff alocation' or some sillyness like that, I am the second station on the line... |
| 11:56.32 | wethrin | It means the staff didn't manage to get out of bed on time |
| 11:57.31 | an0key | Indeed, which they'd tell me a bit earlier though, would mean I could enjoy the extra time in bed too :P |
| 11:57.40 | wethrin | mm |
| 11:59.46 | mindbendr | an0key: which train company is that |
| 12:00.48 | an0key | C2C |
| 12:01.36 | mindbendr | i've never heard it, whereabout do they run |
| 12:03.35 | an0key | http://bit.ly/39kPbp :) |
| 12:14.10 | an0key | but the rest of the time, they're pretty good as trains go |
| 12:17.25 | mindbendr | :) |
| 12:17.54 | mindbendr | if i were to google everything, there was no point of talking to anybody :) |
