[13:31]<+camerongray> Tux2: chazard on the server says that he is stuck in nothingness
[13:31]<Tux2> where is he?
[13:31]<+camerongray> Like a missing chunk that covers the whole map
[13:31]<+camerongray> Nether I think]
[13:31]<+camerongray> Tried disconnecting and /kill but nothing
[13:32]<Tux2> :(
[13:32]<Tux2> If he did /kill, I'll just delete his player.dat file
[13:32]<Tux2> then he will spawn in the starter part
[13:32]<+camerongray> Ahh - cool
[13:33]<+camerongray> Then he can buy out all the wood in my shop again :P
[13:33]<Tux2> lol!
[13:33]<+camerongray> I think he has some sort of secret plan
[13:33]<+camerongray> I had to extend my harvester
[13:33]<Tux2> Oh, I am upgrading the minecraft server to a better computer
[13:33]<+camerongray> Wooow
[13:34]<Tux2> I got a 500GB hard drive so I can render all of the world maps, and show user locations
[13:34]<+camerongray> Was thinking of a plugin - Not sure if it exists
[13:34]<Tux2> user locations would be in real time, world renders would be at night
[13:34]<+camerongray> cool
[13:35]<+camerongray> That would let you edit a sign without deleting it and replacing it
[13:35]<Tux2> I think there is one...
[13:35]<Tux2> I'll have to find it
[13:36]<+camerongray> Cool
[13:36]<+camerongray> That would be really handy
[13:36]<Tux2> yeah...
[13:36]<Tux2> also, some users figured out how to dupe mob arena on my server... so the arena is temporarily closed
[13:37]<+camerongray> Ahh
[13:37]<Tux2> it was also spiking CPU usage

[14:42]<Tux2> well howdy BC_Programming
[14:42]<@BC_Programming> hi Tux2
[14:42]<+Mulreay> hey BC_Programming and Tux2
[14:42]<Tux2> http://tux2mc.tk/calendar/event.php?eid=20110621143956462
[14:43]<Tux2> Hi Mulreay
[15:00]<+camerongray> Hey BC, Mulreay and Tux2
[15:04]<+Mulreay> hey camerongray
[15:19]<+camerongray> I really should revise PHP
[15:19]<+camerongray> Since I'm probably getting a job using it :P
[15:19]<+Mulreay> I really need to get into my comptia training
[15:19]<+camerongray> And will no doubt be very complex database stuff
[15:19]<+camerongray> Yeh
[15:20]<+camerongray> I should do it too
[15:20]<+camerongray> Doing Advanced Higher computing at the moment though
[15:21]<+camerongray> Oh yeh, 2 lessons so far and my computer has a hard drive failure
[15:21]<+camerongray> And during those, the school hadn't set up my access to the server so I stored my work on the hard drive
[15:21]<+camerongray> And... yeh...
[15:22]<+Mulreay> ouch
[15:22]<+camerongray> Yep
[15:23]<+Mulreay> I've paid for my comptia stuff just keep getting distracted
[15:23]<+camerongray> I have to do it at another school since mine doesn't run it and they hadn't connected me up to the server at my school
[15:23]<+camerongray> lol - I tend to do that
[15:23]<+Mulreay> I always seem to have something else that needs doing
[15:24]<+Mulreay> I am slightly distracted by this laptop though that I'm trying to fix... it's now the new bain of my existance
[15:24]<+camerongray> What is wrong with it?
[15:24]<+Mulreay> There's a thread on CH
[15:25]<+Mulreay> http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php/topic,120593.msg795820.html#msg795820
[15:26]<+Mulreay> I was tired and got a little miffed at the end
[15:26]<+camerongray> Seems pretty dead
[15:26]<+camerongray> I don't think you could flash the BIOS since it doesn't start
[15:26]<+Mulreay> Yeah, I know it's a dead end but wanted to keep trying
[15:27]<+Mulreay> Annoying as it was my first customer
[15:27]<+camerongray> Yeh
[15:27]<+Mulreay> Not the way I wanted to start so was more annoyed with myself than anything else.... I did send Command a PM apologising
[15:28]<+camerongray> Ahh
[15:28]<+Mulreay> Not the best way to start a company
[15:28]<+camerongray> Nope
[15:28]<+camerongray> Can't be helped
[15:28]<+Mulreay> On the website it will say 'fix rate 0%'
[15:28]<+camerongray> lol
[15:29]<+camerongray> Just do a "No fix no fee" service
[15:29]<+camerongray> I think the spill is the culprit
[15:29]<+Mulreay> I wasn't charging him anyway, I was doing it so he would advertise my stuff in his shop
[15:30]<+camerongray> Ahh :P
[15:30]<@BC_Programming> WEll for one thing Computer_Commando is wrong, For one I highly doubt a laptop that new would fail like that
[15:30]<@BC_Programming> additionally if it did have a system board failure there would be beep codes of some sort
[15:30]<+camerongray> Yeh
[15:30]<+camerongray> Could be the DC board
[15:30]<@BC_Programming> or specific flashing with the lights
[15:31]<+Mulreay> OK then I'm proud to say I never PM'd him, was just saying that so I didn't look so bad
[15:31]<+camerongray> hahaha
[15:31]<sonicrules1234> Tux2: Ping
[15:31]<@BC_Programming> lol
[15:31]<+camerongray> pong
[15:32]<+Mulreay> I'm just not a fan of people saying that something is dead when all avenues have not been tried
[15:32]<+camerongray> When did he spill the drink on it?
[15:32]<+Mulreay> He never mentioned a drink spill... I just noticed it when I stripped it down
[15:33]<+camerongray> Ahh
[15:33]<+camerongray> I'd ask him - He could be embarassed :P
[15:33]<+Mulreay> It was barely anything... not a full on spill
[15:33]<+camerongray> Ahh
[15:33]<+Mulreay> But there was staining inside the case
[15:33]<+camerongray> I take it is nothing simple like the cable to the power switch has come out
[15:33]<+camerongray> My old compaq did that
[15:33]<@BC_Programming> lol... If I was to follow the logic that "laptop not starting=dead" I would have thrown out all my laptops by now.
[15:34]<+Mulreay> heh
[15:34]<+camerongray> lol
[15:34]<@BC_Programming> the two I know have failed actually pretty much tell me with a constant beep when I try to turn them on
[15:34]<+camerongray> My battery ran out and it isn't plugged in - BIN!
[15:34]<+Mulreay> I checked all connections camerongray plus the power light does come on
[15:35]<+camerongray> I wonder if it could be the DC board - Like it can't charge the battery which has gone flat so there is no way for power to get to the system
[15:35]<+camerongray> I'm just stabbing in the dark here but who knows!
[15:35]<+Mulreay> You can still power on though without the battery
[15:36]<@BC_Programming> does it do anything when you try to turn it on? like some leds flash or something?
[15:36]<+camerongray> It comes on without the battery?
[15:36]<+camerongray> Oh *facepalm*
[15:36]<+Mulreay> The power button has an LED ring around it that soes light up blue when the cable is attached
[15:36]<+camerongray> Ahh
[15:36]<+camerongray> Is there a separate battery LED?
[15:37]<+camerongray> Since that sounds like the power LED
[15:37]<+Mulreay> erm.... one sec.. let me grab it
[15:37] * pottsi (Mibbit@pottsi.staff.mibbit.net) Quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
[15:38]<+camerongray> Windows update is being evil again
[15:38]<+camerongray> My desktop has been shutting down for an hour
[15:38]<+Mulreay> yeah there is a battery light
[15:38]<+Mulreay> which does nothing when I plug it in
[15:39]<@BC_Programming> what if you hold the power button
[15:41]<+Mulreay> nope nothing
[15:41]<@BC_Programming> oh well not sure what I would have expected
[15:41]<+camerongray> I'm interested in the LEDs
[15:41]<+camerongray> Usually the battery LED would light and not the power one
[15:41]<+camerongray> brb

[15:43]<cameron_netbook> back
[15:43]<+Mulreay> I don't believe you
[15:43]<cameron_netbook> hahaha
[15:43]<@BC_Programming> the power LED lights up when it's plugged into power... battery light lights up when there is a battery with charge installed...
[15:43]<cameron_netbook> Ahh
[15:44]<cameron_netbook> Never seen that before
[15:44] * Tux2 (Tux2@E33E54F6.8F502EB6.39CF04D1.IP) Quit (Client exited)
[15:44]<@BC_Programming> That's the way it's worked with every single laptop I've ever seen or used
[15:44]<@BC_Programming> of course you are probably thinking of a macbook
[15:44]<cameron_netbook> Nope - It doesn't have any LEDs :P
[15:45]<cameron_netbook> On all mine, the battery LED lights up/flashes when power is connected and the power LED comes on when it is switched on
[15:45]<cameron_netbook> And I'm using my ThinkPad mainly now anyway
[15:46]<@BC_Programming> looking at my toshiba
[15:46]<@BC_Programming> AC adapter LED lights up when AC cord is plugged in
[15:46]<@BC_Programming> Power LED indicates power state, currently fading in and out (suspended)
[15:47]<@BC_Programming> battery light is on to indicate presence of battery
[15:47]<@BC_Programming> I think the battery light is a different colour if it's charging as well
[15:47]<cameron_netbook> ahh - when I say "Power LED", I'm meaning the "On LED"
[15:47]<cameron_netbook> Like the one round the on button on my thinkpad
[15:48] * cameron_netbook is confused
[15:48]<@BC_Programming> hmm
[15:48]<@BC_Programming> "A security and stability update for Firefox is available: Firefox 5.0"
[15:49]<cameron_netbook> That's funny
[15:50]<@BC_Programming> well at least my newest laptop has fewer lights than the earlier ones
[15:50]<@BC_Programming> thinkpad has 11 freaking LEDs
[15:50]<cameron_netbook> Yeh
[15:50]<cameron_netbook> lol - Mine has...
[15:50]<cameron_netbook> 7
[15:50]<@BC_Programming> this one has AC, Power, Battery, HD, and what I just determined to be the card reader I/O light
[15:51]<@BC_Programming> I have no idea what half the lights on the thinkpad mean
[15:51]<cameron_netbook> Macbook has... 1 - Completely pointless since all it does is pulse when it sleeping
[15:51]<cameron_netbook> I hate not having a hard drive LED
[15:52]<@BC_Programming> ok let's see here
[15:52]<@BC_Programming> each one has a heiroglyphe beneath it
[15:52]<cameron_netbook> My ThinkPad has - Battery/Charging status, Sleep LED, Power, WiFi status, Bluetooth status, hard drive and caps lock
[15:54]<+Mulreay> Mine has power on, wifi, battery charging and HDD lights
[15:54]<@BC_Programming> speaker, battery, arrow pointing left, what looks like a mouse with hair on the buttons, a floppy disk, can of beans, upward facing arrow with a "1" inside, upward facing arrow with a horizontal line through it, a screen with a vertical double-headed arrow, and then the last two are circles with zigzags through them
[15:54]<cameron_netbook> lol
[15:54]<+Mulreay> Mine doesn't even have a caps lock light
[15:55]<+Mulreay> but I have OSD for that
[15:55]<cameron_netbook> The arrow with a 1 is num lock
[15:55]<+Mulreay> which is no help when your logging into your user account
[15:55]<cameron_netbook> Mine has both
[15:55]<@BC_Programming> ahh I guess the other two are scroll lock and caps lock as well
[15:55]<cameron_netbook> Yeh
[15:56]<@BC_Programming> I'll probably spend the next few minutes trying to get it to turn on
[15:56]<cameron_netbook> lol
[15:56]<@BC_Programming> will probably rip out the standby battery since it appears to have started leaking that mysterious battery fur
[15:56]<+Mulreay> Is this the grey one? That was in a video?
[15:56]<@BC_Programming> no gray one works fine
[15:56]<@BC_Programming> well after it finally starts anyway
[15:57]<+Mulreay> Yeah, I remember you having some trouble
[15:57]<cameron_netbook> That reminds me - Mulreay: Did you remove the CMOS battery and leave it for a while - might help
[15:58] * BC_Programming (BC_Program@mib-E2D98C5E.no.shawcable.net) Quit (Connection reset by peer)
[15:59]<+Mulreay> Yeah, I'm going to try that after all the easy (not ruining) a laptop stuff has been done... I know it won't but avoiding anything that I have no real control over at the moment

[16:00]<+Mulreay> That peer guy is a right bastard BC_Programming, always reseting peoples connections
[16:00]<@BC_Programming> worse than that general failure, always reading my Drive A:
[16:01]<+Mulreay> heh
[16:01]<+Mulreay> And that syntax is always making errors
[16:01]<@BC_Programming> well now to remove the standby battery
[16:01]<@BC_Programming> I have two choices, either unplug it and remove it safely, or just cut it
[16:01]<@BC_Programming> I'll probably go with the latter
[16:01]<+Mulreay> cut cut cut cut cut
[16:02]<+Mulreay> heh
[16:04]<@BC_Programming> haha oops
[16:05]<@BC_Programming> tried to remove it normally and I think I removed the piece from the board it connects to

[16:05]<+Mulreay> ahhhh that could be an issue
[16:05]<@BC_Programming> there I ripped out the front panel Infrared
[16:06]<@BC_Programming> now it's symmetrical
[16:06]<+Mulreay> lol
[16:06]<@BC_Programming> hmm same symptom, constant beep
[16:07]<@BC_Programming> I'll swap the floppy/mem/HD to my OTHER thinkpad 755CDV that does the same thing
[16:07]<+Mulreay> sounds like a plan
[16:08]<@BC_Programming> step one: find the bloody thing
[16:08]<+Mulreay> My bedroom is REALLY starting to look like a bad garage computer sale
[16:09]<@BC_Programming> ahh here it is
[16:09]<@BC_Programming> covered in crap
[16:09]<@BC_Programming> yeah that's how you fix things, bury them underneath heavy objects
[16:09]<+Mulreay> lol
[16:10]<+Mulreay> I live near bury
[16:10]<+Mulreay> !w bury uk
[16:11]<+Mulreay> It's next door to Manchester
[16:11]<@BC_Programming> ahh the memories, this one has all the signs of my early frustrations, like the busted keyboard hinge, and the broken holder thing
[16:11]<+Mulreay> heh
[16:11]<@BC_Programming> and I already snipped the standby battery out ages ago
[16:18]<@BC_Programming> well that was a waster of time as usual
[16:19]<+Mulreay> I have lots of them

[17:15]<@BC_Programming> no

[17:31]<@BC_Programming> now using FF5. Not sure why they called it FF5
[17:31]<@BC_Programming> should be FF4 with a different minor version really

[18:19]<@BC_Programming> like before where killing the snake makes the nice zelda noise and opens stuff, but better
[18:19]<@BC_Programming> turns out the entire routine that is supposed to actually do the grunt work is commented out
