[21:03]<+camerongray> Why is Patio such a shite mod? http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php?reportsent;topic=151672.msg933399#msg933399
[21:03]<+camerongray> "Please remove the spam links you posted" - err....
[21:03]<@BC_Programming> haha wtf
[21:04]<@BC_Programming> That's like.. uh... what he's supposed to be doing
[21:04]<+camerongray> Durrr
[21:04]<+camerongray> Maybe if he replaces his CMOS battery the links will go away since that's what he advises for literally everyhting
[21:05]<@BC_Programming> The best way to fight spam is make it so nobody can see it, not ask them nicely not to spam
[21:05]<+camerongray> For best results spell simple words such as click and overnight incorrectly
[21:05]<@BC_Programming> clik here
[21:05]<+camerongray> It's not like they will be back to read the post, it's purely filler
[21:05]<@BC_Programming> also why does it say "Your report has been sent successfully. " at the top :/
[21:05]<+camerongray> As suspected: http://forums.digitalspy.co.uk/showthread.php?p=79129111
[21:06]<+camerongray> I reported it, is the site that broken?
[21:06]<@BC_Programming> looks like it's just a URL parameter to show that
[21:06]<+camerongray> *facepalm*
[21:06]<+camerongray> I guess flashdata or server side sessions aren't a thing
[21:07]<@BC_Programming> seems fine to me as long as it's not using a URL to send the report
[21:07]<+camerongray> Yeah, but it's quite an old-hat way of doing it
[21:07]<+camerongray> Also, I wanted to hug Allan earlier: http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php/topic,151547.msg933409.html#msg933409
[21:07]<@BC_Programming> I know what that is already LO
[21:07]<@BC_Programming> :D
[21:08]<+camerongray> haha
[21:08]<+camerongray> I almost want to send him a PM and be like "You are a god
[21:08]<@BC_Programming> Salmon posted to that thread as well, iirc
[21:09]<+camerongray> Yeah
[21:10]<+camerongray> So glad I gave up on the chat, total disaster, absolutely nothing is good about it now
[21:10]<@BC_Programming> Unless somebody's issue stems from their CMOS battery
[21:10]<@BC_Programming> "I can't get into my BIOS and I get a bunch of beeps at startup" "Have you tried safe mode"
[21:11]<+camerongray> haha, that's DB's approach
[21:11]<@BC_Programming> "My keyboard doesn't work" "pirates use keyboards you're banned now"
[21:11]<+camerongray> I still lurk for logging but not going to contribute anymore
[21:11]<+camerongray> haha
[21:12]<+camerongray> Also this: http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php/topic,151464.msg932582.html#msg932582
[21:12]<+camerongray> While I do not pirate software ever, it's ridiculous how lostcoast (and half the chat) bait people to not help them
[21:12]<+camerongray> It's mental
[21:13]<@BC_Programming> Worse is when it turns into the person seeking help proving it's legitimate
[21:13]<+camerongray> Yeah
[21:13]<+camerongray> Not to mention that half the ops run/distribute incorrectly licenced software anyway
[21:14]<@jacky> Is this where I can say, "I told you so" ?
[21:14]<@jacky> :)
[21:14]<+camerongray> Lostcoast selling machines running Windows 7 Enterprise because "that's what came on it" totally ignoring the fact that that licence is not valid ouside of the institution that it was sold to
[21:14]<+camerongray> jacky: hahahaha
[21:15]<@BC_Programming> Yes who could have seen this coming?
[21:15]<@jacky> Remember - all that behavior by the "ops" reflects on the whole of CH. Golly gee... would't you thik that an owner that gave a damn would do something about it?
[21:15]<+camerongray> :D
[21:15]<+camerongray> jacky: Are you in Don's?
[21:15]<@jacky> camerongray: Yes
[21:15]<@jacky> BC_Programming: pretty much. :)
[21:16]<+camerongray> Seen the thread where Nathan tried to ask about what we want to happen to chat after I spent weeks prodding him, yet he doesn't actually bother replying
[21:16]<@BC_Programming> "Plz complain here so I know which thread to ignore"
[21:16]<@jacky> at atmosphere of, "I'm God" and downhill from there with rudeness... just breeds more rudeness.
[21:16]<@BC_Programming> "I'm God" >> That's my line!
[21:17]<@jacky> heh
[21:17]<Quantos> Can't be, it's my line BC
[21:17]<@jacky> <+camerongray> Seen the thread where Nathan tried to ask about what we want to happen <<< didn't he say something to the effect that things are going to change?
[21:17]<@jacky> and that was ages ago
[21:17]<@jacky> and nothing has changed
[21:17]<@jacky> ?
[21:17]<+camerongray> jacky: This was more recent
[21:17]<Quantos> I can't die from falling off a building
[21:17]<+camerongray> Still nothing
[21:17]<@jacky> camerongray: double nothing, eh?
[21:17]<+camerongray> http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php/topic,149811.0.html
[21:18]<+camerongray> Think he was butthurt that we didn't want to use his one on one system idea
[21:18]<@jacky> camerongray: maybe that's it. wow.. .time flies.
[21:19]<@jacky> camerongray: people need to realize - you can't make IRC something is it not. AND... it is the nature of many people to be assholes. Thus, those are the only ones you need to watch out for... and you DARN sure don't want to make THEM the operators!
[21:19]<+camerongray> hahaha yeah
[21:19]<@jacky> IRC is a wonderful communications medium.
[21:19]<@jacky> been around forever, works well.
[21:19]<+camerongray> I'm in tonnes of channels, never seen one as bad as CH
[21:19]<+camerongray> Yeah, I love it
[21:20]<@BC_Programming> Actually that one on one idea reminded me of something familiar
[21:20]<+camerongray> At university we have a massive IRC presence, it's great
[21:20]<@BC_Programming> you know- when Steve wanted to drop IRC?
[21:20]<@jacky> camerongray: you do? cool...
[21:20]<@jacky> BC_Programming: fuzzy.. refresh me
[21:20]<@BC_Programming> I actually don't remember the details, he wanted to replace it with some AJAX chat support crap
[21:20]<+camerongray> Quite funny actully, we were out in the pub with work and got talking to a couple of guys, when I said my name I suddenly hear "Wait, are you camerongray from IRC, I'm <his nick here>"
[21:20]<@jacky> oh.. regarding one-on-one , in the CH channel, do they still think that they have control over what you do OUTSIDE the channel?? as in, no PMs ?
[21:21]<@BC_Programming> YOU MUST ASK FIRSTLY
[21:21]<+camerongray> jacky: Of course
[21:21]<@jacky> BC_Programming: heheeheh. and of course, logically, one would say, "Why?"
[21:21]<+camerongray> Yeah, that AJAX thing is what Nathan wants now
[21:21]<@jacky> it doesn't have anything to do with their channel
[21:21]<@jacky> re: Ajaz.. vaguely, I remember that. tnx
[21:21]<+camerongray> Rememebr when CH thought they could decide what channels we were allowed on by banning #GlitchPC from their channel
[21:22]<@jacky> camerongray: I don't remember that. They have that half-assed bot that Nathan cooked up... can it do it? Because that sounds like a function of an Eggdrop script.
[21:22]<@BC_Programming> I can't remember how that works- is it possible to ban a channel such that users that are in that other channel cannot join? I seem to remember that
[21:22]<+camerongray> Yeah, that's what he did
[21:23]<@jacky> BC_Programming: Yes. I believe that it can be done with server commands, and I know I can do it with the script that runs in ChanbotVIII
[21:23]<@BC_Programming> I am curious why db drops in for 5 seconds every week or so
[21:24]<@jacky> BC_Programming: if you do: /helpop extbans it is listed there (I just had a very fast look... I could be wrong)
[21:25]<@jacky> <&BC_Programming> I am curious why db drops in for 5 seconds every week or so <<< are you "allowed" by the Gods to ask him? or would that get you banned?
[21:25]<@jacky> hehehehe
[21:25]<+camerongray> BC_Programming: Yeah, he's really broken, guy has issues
[21:25]<Quantos> Yeah, I remember that, that was back in that whole us vs them attitude that BB was feeding LC
[21:25]<@jacky> BB ?
[21:25]<+camerongray> That's if he can work it enough to ban, he can barely type niw
[21:25]<+camerongray> now*
[21:26]<@BC_Programming> The one on one thing is weird, because it's basically doing the same work as a paid support staff person
[21:26]<Quantos> His bans are pretty ineffective and amusing to read sometimes
[21:26]<@jacky> is that just a typo? BB means db ?
[21:26]<@BC_Programming> Bed and Breakfast
[21:26]<@jacky> har
[21:26]<@jacky> Benedictine and Brandy
[21:26]<@jacky> hah!
[21:27]<Quantos> No, BaconButtie was hiding out in here, you guys probably knew about it, and he'd feed pieces of log to LC
[21:27]<@jacky> ah
[21:27]<@jacky> good
[21:27]<@BC_Programming> Oh right yeah we knew that all along.... or well I did anyway
[21:27]<@jacky> If I did, I'd forgotten it
[21:27]<+camerongray> Yeah, so did I
[21:27]<Quantos> I'm sure it was mostly out of context
[21:27]<@jacky> which one was he?
[21:27]<+camerongray> He's also in other channels I'm in
[21:27]<Quantos> Ummm
[21:27]<@BC_Programming> he was the dumb one
[21:27]<@jacky> Quantos: give 'em this: http://bc-programming.com/index.php?page=irc
[21:27]<+camerongray> It amazes me how seriously they take IRC
[21:27]<Quantos> He had a few nicks
[21:28]<@BC_Programming> yeah no need to come into the channel, it's pretty much all online
[21:28]<@jacky> BC even built in a search. Tell 'em to search for "asshole" to find when we are talking about them. heheeheheh
[21:28]<@jacky> <+camerongray> It amazes me how seriously they take IRC <<< ding, ding ding! you win the prize
[21:28]<@BC_Programming> Is that price having voice removed?
[21:28]<@BC_Programming> prize*
[21:28]<@BC_Programming> typo ruined it
[21:29]<@jacky> BC_Programming: heheeh
[21:29]<@jacky> we won't remove your +, but well lower your $$
[21:29]<@jacky> heheheeh

[21:32]<@jacky> camerongray: oh?
[21:32]<+camerongray> Moved into a new flat that has a balcony! Putting it to good use: http://imgur.com/a/XQyHL
[21:32]<Quantos> Darn x-chat just won't stay running in Windows
[21:32]<+camerongray> I also now have a dedicated laptop for radio use so I can chuck it outside and not worry about it
[21:33]<@jacky> it is kind of dark. what am I looking at?
[21:33]<+camerongray> Yeah, terrible photo
[21:33]<+camerongray> That's the VHF/UHF antenna I've been using
[21:33]<@BC_Programming> jacky: a picture
[21:33]<@jacky> <+camerongray> I also now have a dedicated laptop for radio use so I can chuck it outside <<< caulk it up.. water-tight. heheheeh
[21:33]<Quantos> LOL, I like the duct tape on the antenna
[21:33]<@jacky> BC_Programming: I asked for that, didn't I?
[21:33]<+camerongray> haha, it's a ThinkPad, it'll be fine
[21:33]<@BC_Programming> heh
[21:34]<@jacky> duct tape and Bubble Yum ! with them, I can fix ANYTHING!
[21:34]<@jacky> camerongray: finding any repeaters?
[21:34]<+camerongray> Needed a knock about laptop for it, it gets used in places I wouldn't want my good one to be
[21:34]<@jacky> or.. what are you finding?
[21:34]<+camerongray> jacky: Yeah, there is one nearby
[21:34]<@jacky> camerongray: amateur?
[21:34]<@jacky> or.. ?
[21:34]<+camerongray> Yeah
[21:34]<@jacky> cool
[21:34]<+camerongray> Couple of hams without a repeater too
[21:34]<@jacky> G3 ?
[21:34]<@jacky> wait.. been a long time.. that's England
[21:34]<@jacky> I forget what Scotland is
[21:35]<@jacky> camerongray: 146.52 for "without a repeater" ?
[21:35]<@BC_Programming> "couple of hams without a repeater too." Yes nothing worse than pork with a gun
[21:35]<+camerongray> Sounds about right yeah
[21:35]<+camerongray> haha
[21:35]<@jacky> ehe
[21:35]<@jacky> not at all sure what is "the" simplex calling freq over there
[21:35]<@jacky> on that band
[21:35]<@jacky> that would be it, here
[21:35]<@jacky> for FM
[21:36]<+camerongray> The other week we were testing SDR stuff on top of the local hackerspace which resulted in the laptop being left recording on the roof of the building for several hours while we went off to get lunch - Not the sort of place I'd want my good laptop to be!
[21:36]<@jacky> you're doing this with software defined 'radio' right?
[21:36]<+camerongray> jacky: Yeah
[21:36]<+camerongray> ThinkPad T400 I got for £70, not bad
[21:36]<@jacky> why? sun and heat?
[21:37]<@jacky> you have some other software that records the audio output from the SDR ?
[21:37]<+camerongray> For here it's more likely to get rained on or blown off :P
[21:37]<+camerongray> jacky: Cooler than that, fancy seeing a ridicoulously high resolution image?
[21:37]<@jacky> image of... what?
[21:38]<+camerongray> I have software that builds up an image of all signals in a huge frequency range
[21:38]<+camerongray> Everything from 50MHz to 1000MHz: http://camerongray.me/files/band_scan_fixed.png
[21:38]<+camerongray> Warning, may kill your PC
[21:39]<+camerongray> 174,080 pixels wide
[21:39] * Quantos thinks twice
[21:39]<@jacky> and what is it an image of?
[21:39]<+camerongray> Shows all the signals with time
[21:39]<@jacky> ahh
[21:39]<+camerongray> "waterfall" image
[21:39]<@jacky> cool
[21:39]<@BC_Programming> Firefox says the image cannot be displayed as it contains errors
[21:40]<+camerongray> BC_Programming: Yeah, try Chrome
[21:40]<@BC_Programming> how is that possible? it's has _Fixed in the name
[21:40]<Quantos> I'm told by windows it can't be displayed
[21:40]<Quantos> Yeah
[21:40]<+camerongray> The script that makes it is a bit crap
[21:40]<+camerongray> Irfanview can do it
[21:41]<@jacky> that's for viewing Irvans though
[21:41]<+camerongray> That scan is just one I happened to have, that's indoor on not nearly as good an antenna
[21:41]<+camerongray> lol!
[21:46]<@jacky> 
[21:46]<@jacky> heading out for a while
[21:46]<@jacky> be back later, maybe
[21:46]<@jacky> good to chat with you all
