| Takyoji | This makes me cringe and shudder.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4MwTvtyrUQ | 02:44 |

| Takyoji | Gah; I wish I could just have the high-resolution versions of videos rather than videos that have been recompressed several times posted on YouTube.. | 03:42 |
| Takyoji | Such as some of IBM's commercials, commercials for "Thai Insurance" (purely amazing work), and others | 03:42 |
| Takyoji | How comparable is Dirac to Theora? | 04:57 |
| Alpha_Cluster | i just realized that its helps a major corperation to release code as GPL instead of BSD >.< a scary realization | 05:28 |
| Alpha_Cluster | anyone in here using ext4 as their main systems fs? | 05:53 |
| Takyoji | On my Karmic/Lucid desktop, yes | 05:53 |
| Alpha_Cluster | any issues? | 05:53 |
| Alpha_Cluster | i am trying to decide what to do for FS i am loading up my desktop as a fileserver/media center | 05:54 |
| Takyoji | Haven't really noticed any yet | 05:54 |
| Alpha_Cluster | and was thinking ove using ext4 instead of jfs | 05:54 |
| Takyoji | I haven't used JFS myself | 05:55 |
| Alpha_Cluster | ive been using it for years now since i droped xfs and reiserfs | 05:56 |
| kermit | xfs to jfs? i thought xfs was basicly the same as jfs but more developed. | 05:58 |
| Alpha_Cluster | jfs is IBM xfs was SGI | 05:59 |
| Alpha_Cluster | realy i want btrfs | 06:00 |
| Alpha_Cluster | jfs | 06:00 |
| Alpha_Cluster | whoops wrong keyboard | 06:00 |
| kermit | why'd you switch to jfs from xfs? i use xfs. | 06:02 |
| Alpha_Cluster | xfs is known to lose data when there is a power loss | 06:02 |
| Alpha_Cluster | i didnt have a ups for quite a while and so i didnt trust it | 06:02 |
| kermit | thats nontechnical FUD | 06:05 |
| Alpha_Cluster | lol i know | 06:05 |
| Alpha_Cluster | like i said its just till i can use btrfs | 06:05 |
| kermit | i think the default write delays are longer for XFS than some other systems, for efficiency sake, but you can lower it | 06:05 |
| kermit | like ext3 users would always say xfs 'lost data' in crashes.. but xfs defaults to something like a 30 second data flush, whereas i tihnk ext3 defaults to 5 seconds | 06:06 |
| Alpha_Cluster | i dont care os much about the speed gains as the reliablity | 06:06 |
| kermit | which in xfs is tunable, and in ext3 it isnt | 06:06 |
| Alpha_Cluster | ext3 is crap | 06:06 |
| kermit | you can set it to 1 second, or just mount it syncchronous, if you wanted | 06:06 |
| Alpha_Cluster | its slow and shitty | 06:06 |
| Alpha_Cluster | wee starting install now well disc check first but still starting | 06:09 |
| Takyoji | I think one thing that seems a little overlooked is "Answers" on Launchpad. | 07:29 |
| Takyoji | There's like over 700 unanswered questions by other people | 07:29 |
| Alpha_Cluster | Takyoji: i have tried going through and answering but so many questions are just crazy complex | 07:31 |
| Alpha_Cluster | a lot you look at and go "who could know this exact thing?" | 07:31 |
| kermit | i'm having a house party at 410 2nd st NE at the moment, ubuntu users are welcome! there's a keg. | 07:32 |
| Takyoji | by searching through other people's past experience with similar things. :P | 07:35 |
| Takyoji | Some of these are so freakishly simple | 07:37 |
| Takyoji | Leaving for the night | 07:39 |
