@bwDraco I assume BootIMG.FLB is some kind of image. But are you sure you can apply it like this?
Antartica?
Arctic?
@FaheemMitha If may go horribly wrong and kill the card... but if you're going to replace it anyway..
you know cryptography only works if the encoder can spell correctly
@Burgi Jaipur
ooooh
08:02
@Burgi It's a name bro XD And no, that statement is wrong. Ever hear of double encryption with offset?
what a pretty looking city
in other news i think my minion has walked away
@Nick I've not heard of that term no
he went home at lunch yesterday feeling "poorly"
he hasn't shown up yet
he didn't look unwell yesterday and he was fine in the morning
Yeah
Can you blame him?
not really
08:05
\o/ I get to go home early
?((I GOT THE JOB BUT NO ONE KNOWS YET!!))
but he won't get paid for the month
:o
he'll get paid for what he did, right?
Also, if he's offically off sick, I don't think they can 'not pay him'
I.E. if he's reported in as being sick, etc
thats true
Obv's if he hasn't followed whatever protocol there is, and is AWOL, then he could be dismissed I guess
@Avery dude
y u do dis
take care of urself

08:08
@Rahul2001 This.
@djsmiley2k I accidentally good
You accidently did the necessary?
meh, red bull and power through until later in the afternoon
@djsmiley2k I needful the accidentally.
08:09
@Rahul2001 u never say this to me
@Nick he hates you, obvs
@Nick Is it required? Are you not an adult?
@Burgi I hosted a black market on his private server. That must be why.
@Rahul2001 No
The zero in my age has no value. I'm effectively a toddler.
@Nick You aren't an adult or it's not required? Please be clear
@Rahul2001 Read the sentance that follows inorder to gain insighti into the context of that answer.
08:12
stop trolling each other
I represent Indians in the Sultanate of Oman. Not The Republic of India
@Burgi He doesn't even troll, it's just very annoying
Why don't we call ourselves ROI like the other countries call themselves USA, UK and all
God no
I think I'll go offline for a bit
and I'll go underground.
Bye
08:13
##afk gtg calm down before I explode
@Nick because ROI means Return On Investment
y is d bot ded
it doesn't respond when you go afk
@djsmiley2k Thanks for the moral support. :-)
##afk gtg calm down before I explode
08:17
@FaheemMitha You might get to join the club, if you 'Accidently the network card'
@djsmiley2k I think that phrase is missing a verb.
@FaheemMitha its a meme and intentional
@Burgi hmmm, one of our customers main 'remote' server is called RoI
@Burgi I see. That's all right then.
that gives it a really weird pov :/
@FaheemMitha google for 'I accidently a shelf'
08:18
@djsmiley2k ok
It's not quit teh same meme, but it's funnier tbh
hmmm, language :/
@djsmiley2k The Valhalla of Bad English phrases. Immortalized forever as a meme.
how do i stop the 1box! D:

@jet_vortex @wkm2be If you are on the service involved you will be de-trained and need to board another service
"de-trained"
08:28
@Bob it means get off

@djsmiley2k yea... that tweet is from a guy on the train

A man decided to go on a safari. He took his faithful dog along for company. One day the dog starts chasing butterflies and before long the dog discovers that he is lost. So, wandering about, he notices a leopard heading rapidly in his direction with the obvious intention of having lunch.
The dog thinks, “Oh boy, I’m in deep stuff now.” Then he notices some bones lying nearby on the ground and immediately settles down to chew on the bones with his back to the approaching cat.
Just as the leopard is about to leap, the dog exclaims loudly, “That was one delicious leopard. I wonder if there ar
I'm in need of a feature which I don't know if exists.
@Bob the sydney metro appears to run people over a LOT

@Burgi it's... traditionally not very common
you link to an incident at least fortnightly
Bob

@Burgi that was just the last two -_-
09:11
I need a way to save and comment on offline .flv, .avi and .mp4 files at specified times in their playback. Does that make sense?
fair enough :)
@Nick download the whole thing then edit it to the bits your need
So, I have a directory full of videos. when I open the ace ventura movie, I need to have a comment/note on the hh;mm;ss when he emerged out of a rhino's behind.
@Burgi too tedious
Like soundcloud comments but offline, preferably on vlc
09:13
@Nick They're called subtitles
annotatation...
Look up .srt, .sub files
@Rahul2001 ...those aren't user comments..bro
But they have the exact format you're describing
And they can contain anything
Also look up moovie transcripts
I want so save "Yuck" at 0:34:22 and I want a little yellow pin there reminding me to go back there.
Ctrl+B in VLC. I need to test that out.

Q: Annotating videos using VLC

barrycarterWhen watching videos using VLC, I sometimes want to "bookmark" a specific point (or range) and add a text comment for later reference. I realize I could have a word processor running and type in "filename.mov, second 2:17, note: blah blah blah", but is there an easier way? I'd like to do it ...

And... Did the magic hands thing. Again.
@JourneymanGeek What did you do this time?
Bob
Bob
I mean. if you're going to ignore my replies...
why do I even bother
09:18
@Bob I didn't. I didn't know the real meaning of that word dor a long time. I thought they were like citations.
@Bob Finishing this will be my contribution to humanity.
@Nick You don't know what annotations means?
Bob
Bob
probably already finished in the years since... that's what geek's link mentioned
@Rahul2001 I used to but then I forgot at some point. I guess I stopped making .... whatever is defined as a note by way of explanation or comment added to a text or diagram.
Bob
Bob
this train is disturbingly quiet when stopped
@Nick WTF, are you not a Uni student?
How do you not know what annotation means?
Bob
Bob
09:22
(they stopped running routine non-aircon services five years ago)
Do you not annotate your work?
@Nick touched a computer. It started working
@Rahul2001 I'm doing btech. It's not as advanced as you think, It's still school.
@JourneymanGeek Yeah. That happens.
i did a BTEC
@Nick I annotate my school work damnit
09:23
@Rahul2001 Me too. I just don't call it that.
double headdesk
@Rahul2001 In my years knowing you, you've turned from a smart young lad passionate about learning to one of those chatty girls in a clique always reacting in a way that berates idiots like me. Are you trying to be witty?

@Nick What I have to say to that is potentially against the Be-Nice policy
With parameters Nick11 and Rahul22
@Nick lies. You've known him months
Join, I'll explain there
Actually, cross that
Let me just say it here
@JourneymanGeek Stop me if I cross the boundaries
09:28
@Rahul2001 See... you don't have to react...at all...but you choose to
Same goes with CrazyPython
@JourneymanGeek When was that room made again, sir?
afk
@Nick In all honestly, this:
You don't come across as the type of person who wants to learn. Most noobs, they try to improve their skills, you do not. You appear to be happy with what limited amount of knowledge you have.
You do not make the basic effort of looking stuff up, and instead come to us everytime that you need help with any basic task.
I don't know if you realise this, but you also tend to break the flow of conversation between others.
Like I said, your knowledge is very limited, and yet when we try to nicely tell you that whatever it is that you're hoping for isn't possible, yo

Defence: you've had more opportunities to learn than I have, kid. I was lucky to have an IE console to learn webdev from. You really don't know where I'm coming from. I'm just thankful I'm not too illiterate here. If this room can't thread convos, it's not my fault.
I've also explicitly made clear many times that I AM INDEED A HELP VAMPIRE. You guys are less strict about this than SO, so I hang here and share trivial things about life and my tiny troubles....If that....makes you lose your focus...perhaps, you don't have enough focus.
Yeah? Well I think I speak for most people here when I say that we're sick of being the people you suck blood (or knowledge) from.
Your patience is appreciated. Feedback is constructive. Thank you.
> You really don't know where I'm coming from.
09:39
@Rahul2001 Ok, it's time to find a new tribe then :)
@Rahul2001 You don't.
You don't know where any of us some from. Maybe realise that other people can have greater difficulties and setbacks in life.
@Rahul2001 :) I should stop typing now
Buh-bye
@JourneymanGeek Sorry4rant, I'll go cool down now
tech test is written
@Burgi send plz
09:43
its a 40MB zip
Meh, I don't particularly mind
can you ping that email again?
got it
@Nick LOL
I didn't have access to a computer until i was 12
I didn't know my alphabet til I was 15
[-_-]'
@djsmiley2k are you very dyslexic?
09:52
@Burgi That's potentially offensive
no it isn't
@Burgi Got the test, thanks!
Okay, that website is good (the agency one)
its shockingly bad
too dazzling
also it was not built internally
I like it, looks good on this device
Okay, no. Too cluttered in fullscreen
@Burgi Yes, and @Rahul2001 no it isn't lol
my reading age/skill for my actual age was off the scale
but my writing/spelling was terribad
However due to my reading skill, no one ever noticed I coudln't even say the alphabet out loud
The joys of being just clever enough to make sure people never realise you don't know something.
10:00
@Burgi Why do people design websites in PSD?
##caaaaat
because photoshop has for years had a function which lets you 'cut' the page into peices, make each peice into links, etc
@Rahul2001 because clients are visual
Because cats.
10:02
@Burgi hm, ok
also what @djsmiley2k says is true
@djsmiley2k whathowwhy, linky?
it makes designers, into web creators.
@Rahul2001 because 'quick and easy'
What feature is this?
I can't remember what it's called
I did multmedia like 10 years ago
10:07
Psd isn't multi media it's one media
don't help him!
i want to see how he approaches the problem
clippy agrees with me
A followup on my earlier question:
I'm going with bootutil64e -up=efi64 -all -FILE=/usr/local/src/Intel_Network_Card_Boot_Utility/APPS/Bo‌​otUtil/BootIMG.FLB. The message says: "Updating EFI removes PXE functionality. Would you like to continue?" I don't know exactly what this means. — Faheem Mitha 6 mins ago
I don't really know what PXE is. Does this message look ok?
@NotDog lol
@Burgi Wait, what, this is a question on your testing?
I GOT TEH JORRRRB
@FaheemMitha PXE is network booting
i.e booting a image off the network
@djsmiley2k hm?
Now, I guess by the message it means, it'll use EFi network booting instead of pxe network booting - you're likely using neither anyway
10:11
@FaheemMitha pxe is network booting.
@DavidPostill Slllloooooooooow (but you win because link!)
I can never remember to format links properly...
@DavidPostill I still feel like they messed up
It was meant to be a small scale test that worked far too well
It just didn't make any sense
@DavidPostill @djsmiley2k So does it look reasonable to proceed? Though I don't see why "Updating EFI removes PXE functionality".
@djsmiley2k See that help link at the bottom right of chat :)
10:14
@FaheemMitha yeah I think so, if you don't use PXE currently
@djsmiley2k I don't.
@djsmiley2k the network admin job?
congrats
10:18
Well, the network card still seems to be working. Though I suppose it could stop working on reboot. :-(
the spaces vs tabs thing for pay is on el' reg
@FaheemMitha :D
it doesn't make sense
@Burgi Nothing does anymore (btw what doesn't?)
spaces vs tabs
yeah it doesn't
10:28
tbh my IDE can be set to convert the tab keypress to 4 spaces
neither does vi vs anything else.
But it's fun finding random causation
also i just thought that 4 spaces increases your file size
So file size == pay
NOW IT ALL MAKES SENSE! (it doesn't)
No wonder oracle is so expensive!
4 chars verus 1 character
Maybe the code that's the most compressible earns the most?
largest difference in file size of source and compiled software == $$$
10:31
thats an increase of 3 bytes
