[07:44]<+Craig> Hey Jackyu
[07:44]<@jacky> heh
[07:44]<@jacky> Hey you
[07:44]<@jacky> Craig
[07:44]<@jacky> :)
[09:32]<+camerongray> Hey Craig & jacky
[09:32]<+camerongray> Got my HTPC working with a Wiimote :D
[09:32]<+Craig> Hey Cameron,
[09:32]<@jacky> htpc ?
[09:32]<+Craig> Home theatre PC
[09:32]<+camerongray> ^ This
[09:32]<@jacky> cool
[09:32]<@jacky> got everything glued to the wall all ok too?
[09:32]<@jacky> <g>
[09:32]<+camerongray> lol
[09:33]<+camerongray> Will get the pics :P
[09:33]<@jacky> I forgot to tell you... Duct tape and Bubble Yum are also must-have tools, too
[09:33]<@jacky> along with Gorilla Glue
[09:33]<+Craig> Lame.... :P
[09:34]<@jacky> have you tried 'em??!?
[09:34]<@jacky> hehehe
[09:34]<+camerongray> lol
[09:34]<@jacky> then when you don't have things that fit well, that expanding foam is great too
[09:34]<+camerongray> I used Super Heavy Duty Screws to mount the PC, then noticed that the screws they included were around 1cm long
[09:34]<+camerongray> The ones I used were closer to 10cm
[09:34]<@jacky> and what were you into?
[09:35]<@jacky> standing frame?
[09:35]<+camerongray> Concrete :P
[09:35]<@jacky> that'll do it
[09:35]<@jacky> 10cm is what? like 4 inches?
[09:35]<+camerongray> Yeah
[09:35]<@jacky> usually you only get concrete that thick, in a floor
[09:35]<@jacky> what kind of building are you working in?
[09:35]<+camerongray> My house :P
[09:36]<@jacky> you have walls that are a solid 4 inches of concrete??
[09:36]<+camerongray> Wall is big concrete blocks
[09:36]<@jacky> blocks are hollow
[09:36]<+camerongray> Yeah, they might be
[09:37]<+camerongray> It's secure enough anyway :P
[09:37]<@jacky> heh
[09:37]<+camerongray> https://picasaweb.google.com/109134088806822418090/HTPCBuild - You should be able to see them
[09:38] * Kevin (Mibbit@mib-E923A275.dhcp.bycy.mi.charter.com) Quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
[09:38]<@jacky> https://plus.google.com/photos/109134088806822418090/albums/5828148846953004945/5828148988079667266?banner=pwa <<< what is the thing on the right?
[09:39]<+camerongray> The black thing is the PC, the white thing is a cupboard door and the gold thing is a hinge for the door
[09:39]<+Craig> hahahaha
[09:39]<@jacky> heh
[09:39]<@jacky> strange looking pc
[09:39]<@jacky> did you build it?
[09:39]<+camerongray> Yeah, it's Mini-ITX
[09:39]<+Craig> I think its a slimline
[09:40]<+Craig> Nice,
[09:40]<+camerongray> Motherboard is 6.7"x6.7"
[09:40]<@jacky> wow
[09:40]<+camerongray> This is the case I used: http://www.ebuyer.com/312925-isk-110-vesa-uk-itx-chassis-uk-0-761345-08198-6
[09:41]<+camerongray> All you can see is the side, the front of it faces the wall with just enough space to hit the switch
[09:42]<@jacky> dimensions are in mm ....
[09:42]<+Craig> Thats going to be rough if the PS dies...
[09:42]<+camerongray> Should be okay, it's just a standard DC-DC board, not that expensive to replace
[09:42]<+camerongray> And the external one is just an 18v brick
[09:43]<+Craig> Thats not too bad, but finding the board may be troublesome
[09:43]<+Craig> atom?
[09:43]<+camerongray> Celeron 847
[09:43]<+Craig> Not too beafy, but fast enough
[09:43]<+camerongray> Still soldered but quite a bit more powerful than an Atom
[09:44]<+camerongray> Plays HD video fine
[09:44]<+Craig> So a board like this, http://www.memoryexpress.com/Products/MX42997
[09:44]<+camerongray> Can stutter occasionally on Youtube 1080p if something else is running but the TV is only 720p so no need to watch 1080
[09:45]<+camerongray> This is the board: http://www.ebuyer.com/407427-biostar-nm70i-847-nm70-integrated-celeron-847-dual-core-1-1ghz-vga-hdmi-6-nm70i-847
[09:45]<+camerongray> Similar to the one you posted but has HDMI
[09:45]<+Craig> Oh yeah very similar, :)
[09:45]<+Craig> The 230 pin laptop ram will be cooler, but slower...
[09:46]<+camerongray> Yeah, probably more expensive too
[09:46]<+camerongray> Mine runs really cool though
[09:46]<+Craig> Nah same price for 8GB
[09:46]<+camerongray> Ahh
[09:46]<+camerongray> REALLY good for £59.92
[09:48]<+camerongray> I also added a 60gb SSD and 500gb HDD
[09:48]<+Craig> Why windows though?
[09:48]<+camerongray> I get free Windows licences :P
[09:48]<+Craig> There are lots of linux Distro's that would do everythign you are looking at
[09:48]<@BC_Programming> here we go
[09:48]<+Craig> Ah, but its so much slower for an HTPC
[09:48]<+Craig> Bahahah Hi BC
[09:48]<+camerongray> hey BC
[09:49]<+camerongray> Well, It boots faster than the Windows animation
[09:49]<+Craig> Hehehe, thats the SSD
[09:49]<+Craig> :P
[09:49]<@BC_Programming> Apparently the guy behind Compiz has given up on the Open Source community
[09:49]<+camerongray> I also need to watch flash video in a browser
[09:50]<+Craig> Flash video?
[09:50]<+Craig> As in Youtube?
[09:50]<+camerongray> Or on demand TV
[09:50]<+camerongray> ]
[09:50]<+camerongray> Also, Sky insist on Silverlight
[09:50]<+camerongray> Also, if TV channels release on demand applications, chances are they will be for Windows
[09:50]<+Craig> Hmmm, not sure if XBMC can do that, though I know it does Youtube excellently :)
[09:51]<@BC_Programming> There is Moonlight for running Silverlight via Mono
[09:51]<+camerongray> Yeah, but Windows was easier
[09:51]<+Craig> :P XBMC is actually very simple, :) But meh, if it was free right?
[09:51]<@BC_Programming> well I did say there was Moonlight to run silverlight stuff, but I also never said it actually worked, lol
[09:51]<+camerongray> lol
[09:51]<+camerongray> Yeah, Windows 7 Pro free
[09:52]<+Craig> Hhahaha, I wouldn't trust it to work on XBMC
[09:52]<+camerongray> Can also get 8 Pro, XP Pro, Vista Enterprise, Vista Business, XP Embedded, Windows CE, Windows Embedded Standard, Windows Server 2003, 2008, 2008R2, 2012 and MS-DOS 6
[09:54]<@BC_Programming> that was an odd order
[09:55]<+camerongray> lol
[09:55]<+camerongray> Also, don't fancy trying to get the Wiimote to work under Linux
[09:56]<@BC_Programming> ooh I found the post
[09:56]<@BC_Programming> http://smspillaz.wordpress.com/2012/12/24/sideways/
[10:08]<+Craig> Is there a system for making the Wii mote compatible with windows simply?
[10:16]<+camerongray> Yeah, just connects over Bluetooth
[10:17]<+camerongray> Then installed a program that allows me to assign the buttons to actions
[10:17]<+camerongray> It can also be used to move the cursor but I don't use that
[10:17]<@BC_Programming> Dolphin (A Wii Emulator) Apparently supports a real Wii-Mote
[10:18]<+camerongray> I'm just using "WiinRemote"
[10:18]<@BC_Programming> additionally I need to remember to make sure I have all the ingredients before trying to make a sandwich
[10:18]<+camerongray> lol, bread and butter? :P
[10:18]<+Craig> Hahahahhahaha
[10:18]<@BC_Programming> naw I put mustard on the bread and then found out I had no bologna
[10:19]<+camerongray> lol
[10:19]<@BC_Programming> so it ended up as a mustard and relish sandwich, arguably not so bad
[11:11]<+Craig> Hey Cameron, do you know where Duram is?
[11:12]<+Craig> Durham
[11:13]<+Craig> Sorry, the County of Durham?
[11:20]<+camerongray> yeah
[11:20]<+camerongray> North East of England
[11:23]<+Craig> I have family that is from there, my Great Great Great Grandfather and Grandmother. :)
[11:24]<+camerongray> Nice, I've been a few times, nice place
[11:24]<+Craig> I am doing a family tree, apparently I have family history there that goes back to 1776
[11:24]<+camerongray> Ahh, nice
[11:24]<+camerongray> Where's your name from?
[11:25]<+camerongray> Engbrecht, not Craig :P
[11:25]<+Craig> Mine is German, through my father, those relatives are from my mother side.
[11:27]<+camerongray> Ahh
[11:27]<+camerongray> My family's boring, almost all Scottish
[11:27]<+camerongray> Along with my name
[11:28]<+camerongray> Both Cameron and Gray :P
[11:28]<+Craig> Hahahah nice
[11:28]<+Craig> Cameron the Gray :P
[11:29]<+camerongray> lol
[11:29]<+camerongray> It's interesting how names work here, you can trace them back to clans
[11:30]<+Craig> Crazy
[11:30]<+camerongray> I'm clan Stewart or more specifically Stewart of Atholl
[11:31]<+camerongray> And they all have their own tartans, unfortunately mine is classed as "Old and Rare" so was going to work out too expensive ;'(
[11:31]<+Craig> Nice
[11:31]<+Craig> That sucks, what is a Tartan? Its a color pattern no?
[11:31]<+camerongray> Yeah
[11:32]<+camerongray> This is mine: http://buyakilt.com/media/tartan/House_of_Edgar/Old_and_Rare/HOE-Old_and_Rare-Stewart_of_Atholl_Muted.jpg
[11:34]<+camerongray> This is the one I ended up buying: http://www.thekiltcentre.com/popups/tartan/acos240px.jpg
[11:34]<+camerongray> Looks a lot darker in real life though

[13:02]<@BC_Programming> hmm I added fireworks to BASeBlock
[13:02]<@BC_Programming> well not really i just generalized the firework that comes out of powerup blocks
[13:03]<@Mulreay> It's something
[13:04]<@BC_Programming> it also makes sound
[13:04]<@BC_Programming> but not sure if I'll release in time for New Years Day my end
[13:04]<@BC_Programming> Mostly because I'm rewriting the entire framework that I use for "cheats" and stuff
[13:08]<@BC_Programming> !w Nanaimo BC
[13:08]<@BC_Programming> Well I'll be jiggered
[13:08]<@BC_Programming> it is snowing
[13:08]<@Mulreay> Just rain here
[13:08]<@Mulreay> constant fecking rain
[13:08]<@BC_Programming> the weather request is accurate... I'm scared now

[15:29]<@BC_Programming> Well anyway so As this crappy year comes to a close, I look forward towards the uncertainty of the coming crappy year which will probably be crappy
[15:29]<@BC_Programming> possibly even crappier
[15:29]<@BC_Programming> hopefully not crappiest
