NotNozireV
6:32:52
Hmmm looks like its normal for production companies to rotate through dogs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wishbone_(TV_series)
NotNozireV
6:33:05
I find the whole thing off putting
NotNozireV
6:33:46
Once someone started rapping about shooting someone and certained people defended it, I knew it was time for me to go
NotNozireV
6:34:10
This evening they were spamming the shit out of the GizWiz
NotNozireV
6:34:28
They've become a lost cause
NotNozireV
6:35:30

GBRedneck

GBRedneck
6:39:09
Got the new cable in and got the third TV working with the HDMI matrix
GBRedneck
6:39:16
the IR over cat5 thing was faulty though :(
NotNozireV
6:39:41
Never heard of that before. Seems like it would be faulty
GBRedneck
6:40:48
oh i am just wishing and praying the job was over
GBRedneck
6:41:14

NotNozireV
6:41:18

GBRedneck
6:41:45
las vegas thing with wesley snipes in it as well
NotNozireV
6:42:00
Now that's interesting
NotNozireV
6:42:34
Its not a rip off of that shitty fox show is it?
NotNozireV
6:42:39
Empire or whats its called
GBRedneck
6:42:48
dont think so
GBRedneck
6:42:54
its an action thing
GBRedneck
6:43:17
A former intelligence officer works as a security expert in Las Vegas.
GBRedneck
6:44:52
have you seen this?
GBRedneck
6:44:56
now thats cool
NotNozireV
6:45:21
Very nice
NotNozireV
6:45:27
Are you into flight sims?
GBRedneck
6:45:36
i dont even play flight sims but i want one
NotNozireV
6:45:41
lol
GBRedneck
6:47:09
is the volkswagon news still current in the US?
GBRedneck
6:47:14
its hitting big time here
GBRedneck
6:47:40
they are now talking about testing all diesel cars over here
NotNozireV
6:51:43
I really havent heard much about it on the limited amount of news that I do follow but from what I've seen there doesnt seem like much a concern
GBRedneck
6:52:03
i keep forgetting diesel cars arent so popular over there
NotNozireV
6:52:28
Someone in #twitlive mentioned that some cars could be illegal in California but I havent seen any news from law makers suggesting that they will do anything
NotNozireV
6:53:23
I just don't see law makers here pulling those vehicles off the road and retesting them.
NotNozireV
6:53:27
Just my opinion
NotNozireV
6:53:43
Obviously things are much more strict over there
GBRedneck
6:54:11
we have a lot more diesel cars over here
NotNozireV
6:54:22
Right
GBRedneck
6:55:24
i've gone from a 25-30mpg car to 45-50mpg in the new one
NotNozireV
6:56:57
Of course since they're cheating, how do we really know that its 45-50mpg? :D
NotNozireV
6:56:59
Hmmm?
NotNozireV
6:57:02
HMMMMMMM?
GBRedneck
6:57:29
because i am driving more miles and paying less for fuel, its lasting longer
NotNozireV
6:57:48
Fair enough
GBRedneck
6:58:21
i fill my tank with $80 a month and get a good 450-500 miles
NotNozireV
6:58:28
Very nice
GBRedneck
6:58:48
but i know what you mean
NotNozireV
7:01:05
If insurance wasnt absurd I would love to have a mustang
NotNozireV
7:01:15
2005 or older
NotNozireV
7:02:05
Its a beautiful car designed by an immigrant from vietnam (not a lot of people know that)
NotNozireV
7:02:09
That's why I love the car
NotNozireV
7:02:20
It looks nice and it has a story
GBRedneck
7:02:42
yeah real cars
NotNozireV
7:02:52
Absolutely
GBRedneck
7:05:43
i have a new iphone being delivered today, for the first time in my life my contract renewed as the new model came out!
NotNozireV
7:06:24
oh no! not you tooo!
NotNozireV
7:06:57
What did you get (colour wise)?
GBRedneck
7:07:09
white/silver
GBRedneck
7:07:14
is there any other colour
NotNozireV
7:07:36
Rose gold ...I think
NotNozireV
7:07:49
Gold
GBRedneck
7:08:32
i just dont get those colours
GBRedneck
7:08:37
like pimp addons
GBRedneck
7:08:48
i've always bought the white units
GBRedneck
7:08:58
no real reason why except the wife gets the black one
NotNozireV
7:09:28
Same here. My fear is getting shot while pulling out a black phone lol
NotNozireV
7:09:47
This is why I have a white note 3
NotNozireV
7:09:52
Yes I still use a note 3
GBRedneck
7:10:05
if it works for you what does it matter?
NotNozireV
7:10:14
Exactly
NotNozireV
7:10:55
I barely use the damn thing except for GPS and to look at articles when I'm standing in a long line
GBRedneck
7:11:20
i am looking forward to going back to a normal sized phone
GBRedneck
7:11:25
i love the 6+ but...
GBRedneck
7:11:30
just too big at tmes
NotNozireV
7:11:43
I had a Samsung Mega, that was overkill
GBRedneck
7:12:28
not heard of that one, but i dont really follow phones these days
GBRedneck
7:13:00
IOS does everything i want, i have no need of customising or rooting devices, its familiar and most importantly if i want to just use it as a phone i know it works
GBRedneck
7:13:07
i'm not precious about it though
NotNozireV
7:14:39
Bah I never bother rooting my android phones.
GBRedneck
7:14:43
and i certainly ouldnt queue for one
GBRedneck
7:14:49
*wouldnt
NotNozireV
7:15:40
I grew up waiting in queue, as an adult I absolutely hate doing it especially when I'M PAYING!
GBRedneck
7:15:43
i forgot to ask what did you think of the round pebble watch?
NotNozireV
7:16:50
Bulky, poorly designed, looks like they used a cheap screen that doesnt do well in direct sunlight. Overall it looks like they spent $20-$30 out of pocket
NotNozireV
7:17:59
Its this photo that bothers me http://imgur.com/JRFpL5B
NotNozireV
7:18:18
Whats with the thick border?
GBRedneck
7:20:51
beats the hell outta me
NotNozireV
7:25:29
Just poorly designed in my opinion. If they actually wanted to compete they would create a screen that could easily be read in direct sunlight.
GBRedneck
7:25:52
i still think its very early days in the whole smartwatch thing, personally i've not worn a watch in years
NotNozireV
7:26:16
I litterally feel naked if I'm not wearing one. Not sure why that is
GBRedneck
7:26:27
closest i've got is the garmin vivofit band i have, which gives me very little information and i like it that way
NotNozireV
7:27:51
I like this Microsoft band I just got because I can actually read the time during the daylight although I don't care if the 2 green lasers beaming on my skin 24/7 and trying to read my heartrate
NotNozireV
7:28:25
I look at smart watches as conversation pieces
GBRedneck
7:28:51
i see too many pretentious wankers wearing them over here
GBRedneck
7:29:09
but mainly of the apple variety
NotNozireV
7:29:16
You described them perfectly
NotNozireV
7:29:48
BTW the first person to make an LCD watch that can't be distinguished from a real watch is going to win King of Smartwatches
GBRedneck
7:29:52
i have one friend in particular who obsesses about his watch
GBRedneck
7:30:09
and everything apple., wont hear a bad word said about them
GBRedneck
7:30:24
i just want to punch him in the bollocks when he goes off on one
