[10:39] i suggest that right now, you try to promote ubuntu to me. pretend that i am using windows [10:39] highvoltage, ping :-) [10:40] and we c an see if things go along great in that area [10:40] kbrooks, you're using windows?! [10:40] /kick kbrooks [10:41] :) [10:41] mario, no, lets pretend [10:41] I know, I'm just joking [10:41] ignore me [10:41] oh, and assume that i dont know anything about computers [10:41] that's going to be great :P === kbrooks hands the floor to edubuntu :P === a5benwillis [n=benwilli@71-12-14-250.dhcp.gnvl.sc.charter.com] has joined #edubuntu [10:42] kbrooks: pong [10:43] kbrooks: ok, let's pretend you run Windows [10:43] kbrooks: Hi, how are you? [10:43] highvoltage, good. [10:43] kbrooks: great [10:43] kbrooks: we're having lots of fun at the Ubuntu Developers Summit this week [10:43] highvoltage, What is Ubuntu? [10:45] kbrooks: it's a complete operating system (in the same way you'd think of Windows as an operating system), which includes an office suite, web browser, email client (with scheduling), and much more [10:45] kbrooks: you can also download *lots* of add-ons for it [10:45] kbrooks: in many ways, it's even superior to Windows. especially in terms of security. [10:46] kbrooks: and the best of all... it's available for free! [10:46] kbrooks: you can even request CD's on their website, and they'll send you free discs! [10:47] highvoltage: OK, enough there :-) [10:47] kbrooks: it's based on various community projects, and it's in itself also a community project. you may even modify Ubuntu, rebrand it, and sell it as your own product, and completely legaly :) [10:47] highvoltage, your promotion is not very good :-) [10:47] oh, I was just getting started :/ [10:48] I haven't even /started/ with Edubuntu :) [10:48] highvoltage, oh, ok, go on then [10:48] kbrooks: I've been working with new Linux users for years now :) [10:48] highvoltage, but you need to flesh out your kid promotion more [10:48] highvoltage, but please go on [10:49] kbrooks: kids? well, there's an Ubuntu sub-project called Edubuntu, which is a part of the Ubuntu community that modifies Ubuntu for use in schools [10:49] kbrooks: Edubuntu includes free educational content, and ships with a *Very* cool technology called LTSP, which is set up automatically during an edubuntu installation [10:50] highvoltage, what is LTSP? [10:50] kbrooks: LTSP is the Linux Terminal Services Project, which allows you to boot machines over the network without a local hard disk! [10:50] highvoltage, don't explain LTSP to kids :P [10:50] oh right, I'm supposed to be talking to kids, right? [10:50] highvoltage, yes [10:51] highvoltage, i'll clear screen [10:51] /clear [10:51] highvoltage, ok [10:51] kbrooks: how old are you? are you a boy or a girl? [10:51] highvoltage, 16, a boy [10:52] ubuntu has some really cool games. [10:52] I'm trying to complete all the levels on xmoto [10:52] it's a motorbike game that's all about balance [10:52] some levels are real difficult, but it's a lot of fun, and I get better each time I play it [10:52] and weird physics :P [10:52] mario: indeed :) [10:53] kbrooks: there's also termulous, a first person shooter, which is fun to play over networks [10:53] kbrooks: and if you're interested in becomming a games developer one day, then there's something you would really love about these games [10:54] highvoltage, ok, ok, you can stop there please. admittely, you are a bad *buntu promoter :-) [10:54] kbrooks: and that's that you are allowed to look at the code of the games, and investigate how they work on the inside, so that you can learn how to write your own games [10:54] kbrooks: ok, show me how it should be done then :) [10:55] highvoltage, you're again talking about code [10:55] also, games are not important [10:55] mario: yes, that's because he's 16 years old, so he wants to make games when he grows up [10:55] :p [10:56] i'll turn the tables [10:56] highvoltage, it's not funny :P Making games is not as easy as playing them :P [10:56] in real life, I would actually prod and poke a bit to find the interests of the potential user first [10:56] ofcourse [10:56] highvoltage, i'll pretend you are 14, and that you are using windows, and that you know how to download a program and run it. [10:56] kbrooks, he knows much more then you think [10:57] mario: there are some 10 year old kids in the US who create levels for tuxracer, that motivates them a *lot* [10:57] kbrooks: ok [10:57] highvoltage, nod, but not entire games =) Well, there are but .. [10:57] highvoltage, so, let's start (without any knowledge that you are using windows) [10:57] kbrooks: hi uncle Kyle!!!!! [10:57] highvoltage, hey, long time no talk [10:57] kbrooks: I just downloaded the newest Itunes!! And download ed thelatest Linkin Park!!! [10:58] highvoltage, how do you like them? [10:58] kbrooks: well done!! lolz [10:58] highvoltage, i was just getting started :-) [10:59] kbrooks: i'm watching them on the tubez [10:59] highvoltage, cool, now i want to talk about these programs you downloaded. [10:59] kbrooks: yeah I get all my warez with kazaa [11:00] highvoltage, do you know what kazaa is? [11:00] kbrooks: i download stuff with it [11:00] highvoltage, yup, you do. kazaa's site says it's "freeware". [11:00] yeah 100% free [11:01] highvoltage, it's not 100% free. [11:01] it's free in no sense, and it polutes your computer [11:01] it is!!! I downloaded it free! and now I download all my warez for free!!! [11:01] mario: how is it not free? [11:01] highvoltage, yes, you got it for free. but that doesn't mean you have freedoms. [11:01] kbrooks: what freedoms? [11:02] kbrooks: I am free to download what I want! [11:02] highvoltage, in addition to that, with kazaa you've got a lot of adware's and spywares [11:02] highvoltage, the right to run kazaa for any purpose === stgraber [n=stgraber@ubuntu/member/stgraber] has joined #edubuntu [11:02] highvoltage, which you don't have [11:02] kbrooks: hmmm? I can run it for whatever I want. games. music. anything. [11:03] I downloaded teh Vista with it today. [11:03] highvoltage: you can't. you don't know that. [11:03] kbrooks: but I did!!! [11:04] highvoltage, not so. you had to accept a "licensing agreement" to use kazaa. [11:04] kbrooks: yeah I just clicked next [11:05] highvoltage, yes, you did. but by doing so, you gave up a lot of rights which you should not have to give up. === MrWizard14 [n=student@wsip-68-224-175-56.sd.sd.cox.net] has joined #edubuntu [11:05] highvoltage, first off, you gave up the right to redistribute kazaa to your friend. [11:06] I can't figure out how to install konqueror [11:06] kbrooks: I copy kazaa to all my friends!! [11:06] dude, that's completely wrong [11:06] highvoltage, that doesn't mean you CAN do it under the law. [11:06] look at th GPL [11:06] *the [11:06]
