15:10:49 <JarZ> eya
15:11:36 <ash_> how are you plz
15:11:42 <JarZ> um
15:11:47 <JarZ> got back from the assesors
15:11:54 <JarZ> they're going to give me $5850 for my car
15:12:03 <JarZ> which is pretty shit considering how much insurance i've paid etc
15:12:05 <ash_> mmk
15:12:24 <ash_> better than $5k
15:12:40 <ash_> you paid $6k for it right?
15:12:44 <JarZ> $5500
15:12:54 <ash_> oh, so you get your purchase price back
15:12:57 <ash_> that's good
15:12:58 <JarZ> and about $1500 in repairs and stuff

15:14:29 <JarZ> i wouldn't say it's good
15:14:33 <JarZ> i'm still pretty fucked financially
15:14:45 <Carson> damnit, didn't even notice i was disconnected :(
15:15:04 <ash_> hello gadjet sun
15:15:09 <JarZ> hai
15:15:20 <JarZ> Carson; $5850 for my car :|
15:15:29 <JarZ> the gas system is only worth $400, apparently
15:15:37 <JarZ> which is a load of bullshit, especially since there was $2k of cover for it!
15:15:43 <Carson> how much you pay, including repairs etc
15:15:52 <JarZ> but since the system is 6 years old, it's worth fuck all according to them
15:16:00 <JarZ> i'd get more than $400 if i sold it second hand right now :\
15:16:09 <Carson> fuck'n oath
15:16:10 <JarZ> $5500 for the car, about $1500 in repairs and such
15:16:27 <JarZ> and that $1500 was at a completely reduced price - actual price would've been about... $3000
15:19:09 <Carson> URnotD12NV
15:20:01 <JarZ> correct
15:20:06 <ash_> your repairs were at m8sr8s
15:20:12 <JarZ> hahaha
15:20:25 <Carson> haha
15:26:54 <JarZ> hmm
15:27:05 <JarZ> i'm $4 short of paying off the remainder of my loan and paying the excess
15:27:57 <JarZ> so basically 6 months of repayments have been wasted, and i've aquired another $730 of debt because of this thing
15:27:58 <JarZ> lame
15:29:44 <ash_> oh well. get an awesome car :)
15:30:14 <JarZ> such as?
15:30:34 <ash_> luxury german car
15:31:41 <JarZ> lol
15:31:45 <JarZ> sif i can afford it
15:31:56 <Carson> thats what loans are for :)
15:32:00 <JarZ> i'm far too fucked financially at the moment as it is
15:32:42 <ash_> or you could get a small economical car
15:33:27 <JarZ> such as?
15:33:36 <Carson> smart car.
15:33:37 <Carson> :)
15:35:42 <JarZ> cunt
15:35:49 <JarZ> why won't anyone give me a proper answer? :(
15:38:01 <Carson> make up your own mind
15:38:37 <Carson> can't you use the money you got back to purchase another car?
15:38:46 <Carson> and you don't actually have to pay out the loan and get another
15:41:39 <ash_> i saw a lambourghini just a moment ago :>
15:42:29 <JarZ> um no
15:42:31 <JarZ> i have to pay out the loan
15:42:35 <JarZ> because the loan is secured to the car
15:42:39 <JarZ> since there's no car, there's no loan
15:44:09 <JarZ> i'd rather get a new loan and pay it off over say, 3 or 4 years instead of 2 years anyway
15:44:15 <JarZ> well at least have that as my minimum repayments
15:44:23 <JarZ> until i get myself sorted out financially
15:45:19 <ash_> hey i found a nice car that will make you stand out from the crowd
15:45:27 <ash_> http://www.carsales.com.au/used-cars/private/INTERNATIONAL/ACCO/details.aspx?__Nne=20&__N=4294964859+0+834+285+257&Make=INTERNATIONAL&State=All%20States&silo=1003&state_id=0&distance=25&Cr=0&seot=0&__sid=10F3EA4B3ED6&R=400660&__Ns=pCar_PrivateSpecialFlag_Int32|1||pCar_ImageCount_Int32|1||pCar_LastModifiedDate_DateTime|1&trecs=5

22:22:51 <aSH^> hey
22:22:54 <aSH^> i need to install a dvd decoder
22:23:01 <aSH^> can anyone recommend one?
22:27:22 <stefan> a player?
22:31:09 <aSH^> just the decoder i need
22:31:18 <aSH^> but i think this nero cd that came with my dvd drive has one
22:32:19 <Timegrinder> ah right
22:32:24 <Timegrinder> He wants the decoder dll
22:36:26 <aSH^> hm nup the nero software says i don't have a decoder either
22:36:29 <aSH^> yeah
22:36:40 <aSH^> winxp fresh install isn't playing dvds
22:36:56 <Timegrinder> weird, I got that problem ages ago but... it miraculously went away
22:36:57 <aSH^> i've never had a dvd player so dunno what to do to play them
22:36:59 <Timegrinder> have you restarted yet?
22:37:11 <aSH^> i thought its not meant to play dvds?
22:37:44 <Timegrinder> well it should at least have the codecs for DVD format media, probably not to unencrypt though
22:39:57 <Timegrinder> does it request a specific file or anything?
22:41:00 <aSH^> http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/setup/expert/bridgman02april15.mspx
22:41:50 <aSH^> the error that i'm getting is actually saying that something else is using video overlay though
22:41:55 <aSH^> thats why the ms troubleshooting says
22:44:35 <Timegrinder> Interesting, every time I've had a dvd related error it was because I was actually missing the dvd codec, which was my own fault, but if it's complaining that it's already in use or the dshow filter can't be accessed then I have no idea
22:47:22 <stefan> hah, one of the ut2k4 tracks is just like torchwood
22:47:38 <Timegrinder> Did you listen to the bit I sent you a while ago that sounded like torchwood?
22:48:21 <aSH^> i'm thinking that i'm missing the codec
22:48:32 <aSH^> i was always under the impression that windows never came with a dvd codec
22:48:51 <Timegrinder> Yeah, I think I got mine from PowerDVD or InterVideo WinDVD (I think thats what its called)
22:48:57 <aSH^> yeah
22:49:05 <aSH^> i remember back in the day, everyone installing powerdvd to play dvds
22:49:14 <Timegrinder> yeah
22:49:18 <Timegrinder> thats about the last time I played a DVD
22:50:04 <aSH^> dling open office now
22:50:15 <aSH^> i love open office. it got me all through uni with no hassles
22:50:21 <Timegrinder> its great stuff
22:50:31 <Timegrinder> too bad so many people I know refuse to use it and would prefer to get a copy of microsoft office
22:54:47 <stefan> media player classic plays dvds too btw, didn't actually install it on this until recently
22:56:19 <Timegrinder> since when does it install?
23:01:37 <stefan> s/install/download/
23:02:17 <Taliesin> hey ash how long do you think you will be/
23:02:18 <Taliesin> ?
23:12:32 <aSH^> stef, is it free?
23:13:01 <aSH^> looks like it *downloads*
23:18:47 <Timegrinder> yeah it is
23:19:01 <Timegrinder> so's bsplayer, but I think both require external codecs to be installed
23:27:10 <aSH^> s'aiite - media player classic is playing dvds
23:28:02 <Timegrinder> nero still complaining regardless?
23:36:51 <aSH^> havent went back to nero yet
23:36:55 <aSH^> im only gonna use it for burning
23:37:03 <aSH^> woot! jdk downloading at 1.5MB/sec
23:37:38 <stefan> hah, yeah, that's nice
