TheSheepthe dragons in your mind are as real for *you* as anything else12:55
hyper_chhow can we be sure, that what we perceive as laws of physics are actually real?12:56
nikolamWe could learn something on Bio-implants and social reactions to robots and so but what I have to do with knowing how to kill a dragon? :)12:56
hyper_chif I remember correctly from physics classes the three laws of newtons were overthrown by quantumphsysics12:56
TheSheephyper_ch: and then the quantum physics is overthrown by a cat12:57
nikolamNot evrthrown. But Newton laws are jus special part of quantum12:57
hyper_chin the end we are very limited creatures and what we know/see isn't necessarily the way it is12:57

hyper_chTheSheep: you know that cat?12:58
nikolamYes, so we develop computers to make smart machines who will create entities who will be smarter then us.12:58

IonParticleTheSheep, I wish I have a PS301:08
TheSheepIonParticle: sorry, wrong nick :)01:08

arthur_NixHi... I want to get under the hood a little more with xubuntu. I plan on installing xubuntu server and building things up from there, starting with xfce4 and xfce4-goodies. Am I just wasting my time though, should I just install xubuntu and tweak it a bit? Anyone have an opinion on this?10:02

PumpernickelYou'd get to know the package manager, but not much more closely than you would by spending a few minutes with the manual.10:15
arthur_NixI want a lean system, as simple as possible (one app / one purpose), and don't want a lot of gui config options, because I don't mind breaking out the man pages or google to figure out how to change things in CLI.10:18
arthur_NixI looked at Arch, but I don't like the rolling release idea. I looked at debian, but I want more frequent update and more active development cycle. Ubuntu seems to be where its at, I just want more CLI control over the system and less GUI interference. Maybe a server install with openbox is a better way to go?10:19
hyper_chwhat do you want the gui to do?10:20
hyper_chI mean what do yo need a gui for?10:21
TheSheeparthur_Nix: I think you'd like gentoo ;)10:21
hyper_chonce you know what you need it for, you can then select which gui suits you best10:21

MajorPayneBut I haven't played with Gentoo for a couple of years.  Who knows what you can do now.10:26
hyper_chTheSheep: thx ;)10:26

arthur_NixJust to give you an example of what I consider unnecessary, gui stuff would be the automatic update feature of Ubuntu. I'd rather not have that running all the time and just run a sudo aptitude update / upgrade once a week.10:45
TheSheeparthur_Nix: just disable it in settings->autostarted applications10:46
TheSheeparthur_Nix: I think you can do better form the xubuntu end10:46
TheSheeparthur_Nix: compared to ubuntu server end10:47
=== TheSheep <-- did it from the ubuntu server end ;)
arthur_NixThe sheep: Yeah... thinking that too.10:51
TheSheeparthur_Nix: lots of small little apps you don't miss until it's too late10:52
TheSheeparthur_Nix: of course, if you have access to the internet all the time and no really urgent things, you can just follow "install when you need it" principle10:53
arthur_NixThat's kinda my situation. I'd go server install and get my essential things in place (xfce4 xfce4-goodies mozilla-firefox mozilla-thunderbird abiword 915resolution) then see what doesn't work. I think either route will end up at pretty much the same place, it's just a question of whether I want to start with all features and then figure out what I don't need by removing stuff, or start with nothing and figure out what I need to ad10:56
