netritiousHappy Holidays locotn!16:10
wrsthey hey netritious !!!16:11
wrsthow are things going?16:11
netritiouspretty good wrst!16:11
wrstawesome, we are sorta snow bound here today16:12
netritiousthey promised that to west tn but no dice16:12
netritiousit tried though16:12
netritioushow is/was your Christmas going wrst?16:13
wrstgoing well, how about you netritious ?16:13
netritiouspretty good...been a busy holiday season for me and the fam16:16
wrstwell sometimes busy is good but it can be a distraction sometimes with all the busy we came in from fayetteville last night in the snow that was a fun drive16:16
netritioushehe I bet it was16:17
wrstyeah not so bad for the driving just the idiots who thought they could drive 60 on ice... and then seeing them in the ditch in a few miles16:17
netritiousthat sux... did you stop to see if they were ok?16:20
wrstcops had them under control :)16:20
netritiousI'm not 100% certain that I would :P16:20
netritiouswell that's nice16:20
wrstnetritious: i have been giving arch linux a pretty good try as i'm waiting for natty, and 10.10 has been a bit of a dog for me16:21
netritious....98% certain, but not 100% certain16:21
wrstha ha netritious :)16:21
netritiousI installed UNR (lucid) on my friends asus eeepc...it's running well16:22
netritiousit had Xandros but it looked like XP lol16:22
wrstyeah lucid has been great for me still have it going on a server16:22
wrsti hear xandros is awful16:23
netritiousall the windows that opened up looked exactly like XP16:23
wrstbut 10.10 has been giving me terrible fits running VM's, in arch they run like butter16:23
wrstnetritious: i don't think having something looking like xp is good it makes people expect it to be just like xp16:24
netritiousthe default install of UNR+updates/upgrades+apt-get --purge --auto-remove clean is also slightly smaller footprint16:24
netritiouswrst: that's a reasonable point16:25
wrstthat's cool16:25
netritiousthere is a whole whopping 1GB of disk storage left on the 4GB SSD16:25
netritiousoh and -evolution* empathy* cheese* and one or two other packages, +ubuntu-restricted-extras16:26
wrst1GB is not what it used to be is it netritious ? :)16:26
