[00:20] Anyone favor a specific networked message queue system/protocol? [00:20] Was looking at RabbitMQ and MemcacheQ [02:48] HAAAH http://games.slashdot.org/story/10/03/08/004219/Ubisofts-Authentication-Servers-Go-Down [02:57] heh [02:58] Too bad no one warned them that could happen. Oh, wait... [02:59] And then they'll pull some crap statement out of their ass against piracy to support the concept of their DRM. :P [03:00] This game is just a pure example of DRM horror [03:00] I'll surprised if they continue to rape further games with such DRM [03:00] I'll be surprised* [03:01] I'm looking at Ubisoft's forums and apparently it's quite flooded with people pissed off, and implying they're never buying from Ubisoft anymore, etc. [03:43] May 4th, Day Against DRM; by defectivebydesign.org [03:44] http://www.defectivebydesign.org/decade-in-drm [04:44] http://trololololololololololo.com/ :D === sparkle_history is now known as sparklehistory [21:27] When are they ever going to make GRUB2 shiny? [21:28] I think it's considerably the most "user unfriendly" thing in the Ubuntu stack right now; yes, it's very usable, but quite verbose with the details of the options and so forth (to a general user) [21:31] and yay http://www.starryhope.com/linux/ubuntu/2010/ubuntu-lucid-makes-scanning-simple/ [21:46] I also wonder if Google Chrome will ever be in the Ubuntu repositories... [21:51] * Takyoji tries to decide between AMQP and SNMP [21:55] Takyoji: "Chrome" can't be, as it's not FLOSS. [21:55] However Chromium could be. [21:55] right [21:56] Yet neither is provided [21:56] So then would that imply that Firefox is not FLOSS, and Iceweasel is? :P [21:57] Uh, perhaps you should do your homework before asking such questions Takyoji :P [21:57] http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/c/chromium-browser/ [21:58] It's primarily the branding that sets the two examples apart, correct? [21:58] yes [21:58] But what about the poor confused souls? :P [21:59] Too bad for them? [21:59] We can't control trademark law. [22:00] Then I guess I'll complain about Songbird. :P [22:02] otherwise is there any specific date for the installfest at TIES yet? [22:07] no [22:12] Ooo, an octacore CPU [23:56] Takyoji: if you want a shiny grub2, install the burg ppa. Very shiny indeed.
