[01:03]<@BC_Programming> I want one of those :P but they are prohibitively expensive
[03:24]<Tux2> lol, I can see why
[03:25]<Tux2> BC_Programming, if you are still awake, I am running a test server with the latest version of bukkit and all my plugins on 1.5_02: home.jrtechsupport.com:25567
[03:25]<Tux2> going to bed now...

[06:42]<+Mulreay> new ashens video
[07:03]<@BC_Programming> wow it's a long one t oo
[07:03]<@BC_Programming> I liked portal 2 so much.... I played it twice now
[07:04]<@BC_Programming> It's even funnier the second time
[07:09]<@BC_Programming> W
[07:09]<@BC_Programming> T
[07:09]<@BC_Programming> F
[07:09]<@BC_Programming> ok
[07:09]<@BC_Programming> the link I posted over 6 hours ago
[07:10]<@BC_Programming> was to the VERY THING that the new ashen's video looks at
[07:10]<@BC_Programming> coolness :P

[12:38] * jacky (the_kink@mib-CB7A0EDC.slsbmd.east.verizon.net) has left #glitchpc
[13:10]<+Mulreay> decided not to take the build insurance for the new computer... I trust myself
[13:10]<+Mulreay> kinda
[13:14]<+camerongray> lol
[13:14]<+camerongray> Did you order it?
[13:15]<+Mulreay> not yet, will have to wait until I get back from London.. so about another month or so
[13:15]<+camerongray> Cool
[13:15]<+Mulreay> changed some of the components though from that thread in glitchpc
[13:16]<+camerongray> Yeh
[13:17]<+camerongray> I hope Steve/Calum gets back to me on the videos
[13:17]<+Mulreay> yeah, would be cool
[13:19]<+camerongray> I'm thinking basic things, like RAM upgrades
[13:20]<+camerongray> Stuff that people are likely to ask about
[13:20]<+Mulreay> yeah, sounds good
[13:21]<+Mulreay> USB3 on this motherboard, I assume that means USB 3.0 and not 3 USB ports
[13:21]<+camerongray> Yeh - 3.0
[13:22]<+camerongray> In total you will have LOADS
[13:22]<+Mulreay> cool thought so
[13:22]<+camerongray> The case alone has 4 front USBs
[13:22]<+camerongray> They go into the USB headers on the board
[13:22]<+Mulreay> cool
[13:23]<+Mulreay> Back panel has 6 x USB 2.0
[13:23]<+Mulreay> 2 x USB 3.0 and 3 USB 2.0 headers
[13:24]<+Mulreay> so one front USB will have to go wanting
[13:26]<+camerongray> You can probably use a 3.0 header for a 2.0 port
[13:26]<+camerongray> And usually 2 ports share 1 header
[13:27]<+Mulreay> k
[13:27]<+camerongray> btw - Does anyone here know how on earth you use Xcode?
[13:27]<+Mulreay> not me
[13:28]<+camerongray> Don't try :P
[13:28]<+camerongray> It is EVIL
[13:28]<+Mulreay> heh
[13:29]<+camerongray> It's just the fact that Apple go on about making stuff that is intuitive but Xcode is the complete opposite
[13:29]<+Mulreay> That'sApple for you, did you see the new Ashens video?
[13:29]<+camerongray> nope - looking
[13:30]<+Mulreay> long one
[13:30]<+Mulreay> and I want one
[13:30]<+camerongray> Actually - Did I tell you how much the Apple store would charge to LOOK at this MacBook's battery problem?
[13:30]<+Mulreay> no
[13:30]<+camerongray> £72!
[13:31]<+Mulreay> wow
[13:31]<+camerongray> That's what I said
[13:33]<+camerongray> The whole thing cost £300
[13:33]<+Mulreay> heh
[13:34]<+camerongray> I suppose, if you can afford a new mac, you can afford their charges
[13:34]<+Mulreay> suppose
[13:35]<+camerongray> I want one too :P
[13:35]<+camerongray> Or a BeagleBoard
[13:36]<+Mulreay> too expensive for my taste
[13:37]<@BC_Programming> get a OpenPandora
[13:37]<@BC_Programming> man I want one of those... they look awesome
[13:37]<@BC_Programming> it's weird though because I was linked to it by a newsletter I get a few days ago and then Ashen's did a vid on it
[13:37]<+Mulreay> yeah nice piece of kit
[13:41]<+camerongray> Yeh $500 is too much for me
[13:41]<@BC_Programming> If was was still working full time I'd be able to buy it in a heartbeat, lol
[13:42]<@BC_Programming> well, probably not, since I would have probably spent everything on other crap
[13:42]<@BC_Programming> I do that
[13:42]<+Mulreay> especially when I'm about to spend £800 on a computer
[13:47]<+Mulreay> Take it your enjoying Portal 2 BC_Programming
[13:47]<@BC_Programming> yeah played it twice now
[13:48]<@BC_Programming> funniest game ever
[13:49]<+Mulreay> I was kinda suprised that steve Merchant plays the bot
[13:49]<+Mulreay> Not sure if you know who he is
[13:49]<@BC_Programming> Nope
[13:49]<+Mulreay> Been watching the yogscasts lets plays
[13:50]<+Mulreay> Steve Merchant co-wrote 'The office' with Ricky Gervais
[13:50]<@BC_Programming> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mg3lkkPkRtg
[13:50]<+Mulreay> Can't watch that... spoilers
[13:51]<@BC_Programming> not really... it's the preview video they released ages ago
[13:51]<+Mulreay> oh ok one sec
[13:52]<@BC_Programming> dammit all the videos have some douche doing commentary
[13:53]<+Mulreay> which videos?
[13:54]<@BC_Programming> oh searching for one segment near the start
[13:54]<@BC_Programming> I may have to make it myself
[13:54]<+Mulreay> cool, the bot is hilarious
[13:54]<@BC_Programming> the entire game is freaking hilarious
[13:55]<+Mulreay> Simon on the yogscast calls him Stephen on his walk through as well... we brits know him from other stuff. Awesome funny stuff though
[13:55]<+Mulreay> Trying to follow only 3 walkthroughs of the game
[13:55]<@BC_Programming> the material kind of reminds me of stuff you might find on red dwarf
[13:55]<+Mulreay> yeah, definately
[13:55]<@BC_Programming> "they said if I used this flashlight, I would die"
[13:56]<+Mulreay> When he comes off the master rail as well had be laughing
[13:56]<+Mulreay> me*
[13:56]<@BC_Programming> or that bit where he speaks in an "accent beyond her range of hearing"
[13:56]<+Mulreay> not seen that bit
[13:57]<@BC_Programming> oh when he hacks a computer.... oh man I nearly pissed myself...
[13:57]<+Mulreay> Your well ahead of me
[13:58]<@BC_Programming> well I did play through the entire thing twice now, heh
[13:58]<+Mulreay> heh, true
[13:58]<+Mulreay> no spoilers please though
[13:58]<@BC_Programming> oh do you have the game?
[13:59]<+Mulreay> no, just watching the 'lets plays'
[13:59]<@BC_Programming> awww
[13:59]<@BC_Programming> well I guess I'll have to make some then
[13:59]<+Mulreay> Will have to get it when I get my new PC, then I feel a recorded multiplayer coming on
[14:00]<@BC_Programming> indeed
[14:00]<+Mulreay> That would be cool
[14:02]<+Mulreay> Can't wait for this PC, will be life altering. As in I will be able to do stuff finally
[14:03]<+Mulreay> Thinking you may be recording now
[14:04]<@BC_Programming> nope, have to wait for FLStudio to finish rendering
[14:05]<+Mulreay> ahh, assumtion is the mother of all..... and all that
[14:07]<@BC_Programming> also got bored of waiting for weather in MC so I just used NBTEdit to edit the level file and force it too, heh
[14:10]<+Mulreay> heh, rained once in mine
[14:10]<@BC_Programming> oh wait, it did rain before I did that
[14:10]<@BC_Programming> but it stopped before I could fully immerse myself
[14:11]<+Mulreay> It played havok with my FPS though
[14:11]<@BC_Programming> the physics engine? cool
[14:11]<@BC_Programming> :P
[14:11]<+Mulreay> heh

[15:02]<+Mulreay> wb
[15:07]<+camerongray> tnx - Needed to move laptop :P
[15:08]<+camerongray> Damn battery
[15:19]<+Mulreay> My laptop battery only lasts about 20mins
[15:19]<+Mulreay> But it is a few yrs old
[15:20]<@BC_Programming> mine still lasts 3 hrs
[15:20]<@BC_Programming> well 2 and a half probably
[15:21]<@BC_Programming> I don't use the battery much though
[15:21]<+Mulreay> I never really used mine, so it may have just decayed over time
[15:22]<@BC_Programming> could just need discharging or something
[15:22]<@BC_Programming> I'm not sure how that works though
[15:22]<@BC_Programming> or if more modern laptops even need it
[15:22]<+Mulreay> I rarely need the battery anyway, only when walking the laptop from upstairs to downstairs
[15:27]<+camerongray> It's the charging on mine that has gone - The battery is fine
[15:27]<+camerongray> Might just be the battery connector but could be the logic board
[15:28]<+camerongray> Really need to borrow a battery connector to test it

[15:47]<DarkTemplar> I would call it in such way... :p
[15:47]<DarkTemplar> who'd entered here first? :)
[15:47]<DarkTemplar> erm, not 'call'...
[15:47]<DarkTemplar> rather 'type'
[15:48]<DarkTemplar> good evening, mr Sonic TH :)
[15:52]<sonicrules1234> xD
[16:00]<+camerongray> MC server is down :(
[16:01]<Tux2> which one camerongray?
[16:01]<+camerongray> Craig's
[16:01]<+camerongray> I should get Portal 2 but my graphics card sucks
[16:01]<+Mulreay> Would love it, but NO chance of playing it on this
[16:02]<Tux2> ah...
[16:02]<Tux2> Mine is still up, although I will be upgrading it to 1.5 soon!
[16:04]<DarkTemplar> camerongray, you scared me as hell!
[16:05]<DarkTemplar> MC... looks almost like MS :p
[16:05]<DarkTemplar> hi guys

[18:45]<Tux2> ugh, someone is wanting to use the GPT and ext2 on a linux computer in #computerhope...
[18:46]<Tux2> remind me again why I even try to help out over there?
[18:46]<@BC_Programming> HAHA
[18:47]<Tux2> He was all like GPT GPT GPT over the msdos partition table because it was the newest, but when it came to the file system he was all ext2 ext2 ext2, so when I said to use ext4 as it was newer, he said, "who cares?"
[18:48]<Tux2> (oh, and faster)
[18:48]<@BC_Programming> that seems like conflicting goals
[18:48]<@BC_Programming> "I want GPT because it's newer, but I don't want ext4 for no reason"
[18:49]<Tux2> lol, yeah...
[18:49]<Tux2> I left, I'll let him misguide that poor soul...
[18:49]<@BC_Programming> oh this was somebody else
[18:50]<@BC_Programming> that's even worse then
[18:50]<Tux2> yeah
[18:51]<Tux2> I think he doesn't like it when someone else, (who actually KNOWS linux) comes along and tries to steer someone in the right direction...
[18:52]<Tux2> that room went downhill fast after the voice priveledges were removed...
[18:52]<@BC_Programming> let me guess lostcoast
[18:53]<Tux2> nope, it wasn't lostcoast...
[18:54]<Tux2> <lucasfraser98> gpt
[18:54]<Tux2> <richie> kk
[18:54]<Tux2> <richie> goin with gpt
[18:54]<Tux2> <HelpDude88> i say gpt for sure final answer
[18:54]<Tux2> <richie> do you need to call a life line?
[18:54]<Tux2> <HelpDude88> i wish lol...no
[18:54]<Tux2> <Tux2> lol, I go with compatible usually...
[18:54]<Tux2> <HelpDude88> gpt is GUID Partiton Table
[18:54]<Tux2> <HelpDude88> well he is only going to use linux on it so who cares?
[18:54]<Tux2> <richie> now it sais
[18:54]<Tux2> <HelpDude88> yes
[18:54]<Tux2> <richie> free space preceding mid 1
[18:54]<Tux2> <richie> new size 38166, free space following 0, align to mid, create as primary partition, files system ext2, lable: blank
[18:54]<Tux2> <HelpDude88> ok im a little confused now
[18:54]<Tux2> <HelpDude88> new file system should be ext2
[18:54]<Tux2> <richie> or none
[18:54]<Tux2> <Tux2> um ext4 is the newest...
[18:54]<Tux2> <HelpDude88> who cares once again?
[18:55]<Tux2> And that would be the pertinent bits...
[18:56]<Tux2> so, what do you think of that BC_Programming?
[18:56]<@BC_Programming> I didn't even know you bothered with #Computerhope anymore
[18:57]<Tux2> lol, I peek in there once in a great while...
[18:57]<@BC_Programming> I realized it wasn't worth my time looong ago when Lostcoast and some other guy started telling people they need to run registry cleaners on a regular basis or they will get infected...
[18:57]<Tux2> yeah, when I proposed a "test" to separate the good guys from the bad ones, everyone objected... (I wonder why....)
[18:58]<Tux2> "why do we need tests???? we know what we are doing, and computerhope knows that..."
[18:59]<@BC_Programming> haha... them recommending registry cleaners sort of says that they don't
[19:00]<@BC_Programming> I quite recall him recommending to use a registry cleaner in one of the forum threads. Needless to say that was not a good idea on his part
[19:01]<Tux2> Yeah, exactly. I wanted some way of sorting the wheat from the chaff, and nathan sort of actually liked the idea, you know, giving voice to people with experience, etc....
[19:01]<@BC_Programming> ahhh here's the thread
[19:01]<@BC_Programming> http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php?topic=107595.0
[19:01]<@BC_Programming> heh my post is mostly me quoting other posts by me lol
[19:03]<@BC_Programming> heh I post a technical/programmatic explanation for why registry cleaning cannot possibly speed up a computer in any way that matters
[19:04]<@BC_Programming> haha I forgot about that... all the cleaner and tune up programs always seem to use some ridiculous fancy skin
[19:04]<@BC_Programming> It's a tune up program, not a bloody beauty pageant
[19:05]<Tux2> lol, yeah...
[19:05]<Tux2> well, he asked about registry cleaners...
[19:06]<@BC_Programming> heh
[19:06]<Tux2> all the registry cleaners I've used corrupt the registry more than fix it...
[19:06]<@BC_Programming> yeah this one bit I go off on "ok, and what the hell exactly is the difference between a "clean" and "dirty" registry, anyway, and why is the latter less desirable aside from the otherwise arbitrary labelling of being dirty?
[19:07]<Tux2> lol, yeah, smaller file size???? Get a registry compacter, and even that saves you a few megs...
[19:07]<Tux2> only*
[19:07]<@BC_Programming> registry "compactors" are pointless too
[19:07]<Tux2> exactly
[19:07]<@BC_Programming> If you need disk space, uninstall programs!
[19:08]<Tux2> yay!!!!
[19:08]<Tux2> I clean the registry when a program corrupts itself, and only by hand... not by a program...
[19:08]<@BC_Programming> cleaning the registry on windows is like cleaning .config files on linux. It just doesn't make any sense
[19:08]<@BC_Programming> I mean, to do programmatically
[19:08]<Tux2> yeah
[19:08]<@BC_Programming> obviously the idea of a .config file is to tweak it yourself :P
[19:09]<Tux2> oh, my MC server is updated to the newest version now. :D
[19:09]<@BC_Programming> yeah saw that, haven't been playing MC lately
[19:09]<Tux2> ah, okay
[19:10]<@BC_Programming> wow I'm impressing myself with these posts, lol
[19:10]<Tux2> lol...
[19:11]<@BC_Programming> haha I saw this on an ad for a registry cleaner once
[19:11]<@BC_Programming> "unlike the Linux registry, the windows registry get's corrupted over time"
[19:11]<@BC_Programming> LOL
[19:11]<Tux2> lol! What linux registry??????
[19:11]<@BC_Programming> exactly
[19:14]<Tux2> Okay, I'll be right back....
[19:14]<Tux2> I have to go do something...
[19:14]<@BC_Programming> k
[20:20]<Tux2> back
