valorieI'm pretty sure marcho and glenn beck are a team07:44
valoriehe's enjoying the drama07:45
valorieand feeding info07:45
MarkDudeI think so to - his mask is also in gentoo log07:45
elkyThey all came in together.07:45
MarkDudehe is the 3rd of the group.07:45
valorieyup07:46

valoriejust like evil Brownies or something07:46
macokicked off unfairly? riiiight07:47
elkythe codeword being?07:49
MarkDudeit's an old High School trick, 2 people cause a scene. the 3rd slips in & trys to be a part of the group07:49
macoelky: well im not gonna say it in the logged channel!07:49
elkymaco, PM was invented for a reason.07:50
czajkowskialoha07:50
rwwhi czajkowski07:50
macoelky: and now youve been pm'd07:50
czajkowskirww: morning07:51
elkyI'm kinda wondering why we're getting these gentoo folk the past few days.07:59
rwwelky: well, they wanted to come troll us when the channel opened, but it took them over four years to compile an IRC client.08:03
pleia2hahahah08:04
pleia2rww <308:04
MarkDudelol08:04
hypa7iao snap :)08:05
MarkDudeSomeone suggested that a group I am part of start teaching Gentoo also. I just kindof shook my head NO.08:05
MarkDudeI hope they dont bring it up again08:05
pleia2gentoo isn't really something you teach08:05
pleia2it's used by people who want to get their hands dirty and really fine tune things08:05
MarkDudeGentoo needs to be taught08:06
pleia2if you need to be taught it, you shouldn't use it08:06
MarkDudeManners08:06
pleia2:)08:06
MarkDudeCool. pleia2 - I'll use your excuse if it is brought up gain08:07
rwwI tried installing it as part of the "don't make fun of stuff you haven't tried" rule, but I gave up after two hours of trying to figure it out. I'm not sure whether this is due to Gentoo sucking or user incompetence :S08:07
pleia2I used gentoo for about 8 months back in 200308:07
pleia2it had newer stuff than debian, which was neat, but I ended up going back to debian08:08
pleia2it broke every time I did an upgrade, I wasn't keen on hitting the forums every time I typed emerge08:08
MarkDudeI really like Puppy Linux - but have always thought that they were slightly dysfunctional. They just annoy each other tho, not everyone else. Barry (the founder) ended up having to *lock down his site*08:09
* rww pokes us in the direction of #ubuntu-women08:09
pleia2thanks rww ;)08:09
MarkDudemarcho is still there-- icky08:10
hypa7iaMarkDude: ouch08:10
hypa7iare puppy, that is08:11
MarkDudeIts sad. They have a version that works with Ubuntu's repos- Karmic Puppy had a low footprint & worked on older hardware08:12
MarkDudeBarry sounds like a real nice person also. Supposedly, he is leaving his project to leave the drama, and focusing on Woof08:13
* elky clears throat.08:13
* MarkDude moves to UW proper08:14

czajkowskiakgraner: did you not get enough of that on skype last nigh14:24

akgranerhaha well ok you have a point14:25
czajkowskimy poor father was wondering what I was on14:26
czajkowskiand where was the accent coming from14:26
akgraneroops  - I was colorful too14:26
akgranersorry14:26
czajkowskithe man is used to me and lived in Ireland over 30 years14:27
czajkowskiI'd say he's well used to colourful language14:27
akgranerI love the accents!14:28
czajkowskiakgraner: you're the one who has the accent!15:19
macoakgraner: you're an emacs user now?15:26
maco:(15:26
nigelbabumaco, wrong smiley?15:27
maconigelbabu: no, i'm a vim user :)15:27
nigelbabumaco, ah, that way.  (I'm vim user too)15:27
nigelbabumaco, I thought we should be glad she's turning into quite a hacker :D15:27
akgranermaco, I use gedit - but pete is helping me with emacs - not ready to go that route completely yet15:31
Penduluma couple weeks ago I was at a pub watching rugby and had a very odd moment with a guy where he went "wow, you use Ubuntu? that's hardcore" and then went on to talk about how much he loved emacs, but has never managed to successfully install ubuntu and get it working15:32
PendulumI kinda feel like if you can use emacs, you should be able to install Ubuntu successfully15:33
macoakgraner: type "vimtutor" and the computer will teach you to use vim. and then you'll have a nice little holy war in the house ;-)15:33
macoPendulum: i know some people like that15:34
akgraneroh we already have that going on  - I don't need help there15:34
akgranerafter 18 years of marriage we have plenty of topics for that15:34
macoone of the TAs was tasked with teaching us all emacs one day because the prof wanted us to be able to use a cli editor15:34
macobut most of the students have never installed linux. they were just using emacs inside cygwin15:34
macoor putty15:34
Pendulumakgraner: did you listen to the Shot of Jaq from last week about the editor war?15:35
akgranerPendulum, no :-( I need to catch up15:35
akgranerI think Pete listened to it though - he mentioned something about it15:35
Pendulumakgraner: you only have to listen to the first 2 minutes or so15:36
maco(i erm...refused to learn. i know vim and thats command line, so good nuff for me. there was a shouting match in the class. the gui users (most of the class) saying that cli editors suck because pico is no more powerful than a gui one. the vim & emacs users agreeing that pico was *not* the thing to use if you want power, and then the vim and emacs users arguing over exactly *what* to use if you want power)15:36
akgranermaco, wow - now that sounds like a class with some great personalities15:38
elkyButterflies, of course.16:12
