TakyojiIt's pathetic how it takes up like over 80% of my CPU when using Pandora (music streaming service) on my laptop.01:10
Takyojiof which is just AUDIO01:10
TakyojiBut contained in Flash01:10
Takyojithere's also no DRM/cryptology of the service either, yet still takes as much CPU power01:11
Alpha_Clustercause flash is like the greatest thing ever02:01
Alpha_Clusteryou know great things must use lots of CPU power02:01
TakyojiOf course, it shows how great they are, after all.02:04
Alpha_Clusteryep02:05
Alpha_Clusteronly great programmers can use up that much cpu while doing so little02:06
Alpha_Clusterok anyone have a problem where evolution refuses to ask for a password for a new account?02:08
Alpha_Clustergod evolution is still such a piece of shit02:14
kermitwhy does flash eat so much CPU anyway?11:28
Obsidian1723Here's a bash script I made which will download and install programs, setup iptables (for a desktop PC, not a server) and provide a good first step after doing a new Ubuntu 10.04LTS desktop installation. wget -c -t0 http://dl.dropbox.com/u/914191/install-script.sh and then sudo chmod +x install-script and then do sudo ./install-script.sh and it just runs. This is a solid script that is ever-evolving.18:22
rlaagerObsidian1723: You should make this into one or more packages and put them in a PPA.20:06
rlaagerObsidian1723: Why do you run apt-get install a million separate times? For the firewall stuff, using ufw would probably be better.20:07
Obsidian1723How would I do this in a PPA?20:13
Obsidian1723I ve never packaged20:13
Obsidian1723Well, iptables is more configurable20:13
rlaagerObsidian1723: I manage all of our configs (desktop and server) via packages. For something like this, you might make a package named obsidian-desktop. It'd be a "native" package, which means it has no upstream tarball.20:15
Obsidian1723gotcha... how would I make this into a package though?20:16
rlaagerBasically, any time you're creating a file, you'd create that as part of the package build process. Any time you're running a command, you'd put that in the package's postinst script.20:16
rlaagerAnd when you're install a package, you'd instead make that a dependency of your package (in debian/control).20:16
rlaagerObsidian1723: I have to run to a client's place, but perhaps I can find a good example to share with you so you don't have to start from scratch.20:17
Obsidian1723that'd b ed appreciated20:17
rlaagerPackages are nice in that, properly done, they can cover both initial installs and upgrades.20:17
Obsidian1723sweet20:17
tonyyarussoYeah, I've been meaning to put together some packages to control network-wide common configurations too.23:41
tonyyarussoMeanwhile, my new Das Keyboard Model S properly fixes my KVM switch problem :)23:42
