| oz120 | hello all still working on getting my systems online hoping then to learn more about linux | 00:15 |
|---|---|---|
| pleia2 | welcome oz120 | 00:17 |
| oz120 | thanx | 00:21 |
| oz120 | I wish I new enough about linux to be able to help other people with there problems like this chat has done for me | 00:22 |
| MutantTurkey | :) | 00:29 |
| MutantTurkey | @ping | 00:29 |
| PennBot | pong | 00:29 |
| MutantTurkey | whew. all lag is gone. | 00:29 |
| rmg51 | MutantTurkeys have lag? | 00:35 |
| MutantTurkey | earlier i did | 00:37 |
| jedijf | oz120: be careful what you ask for | 00:49 |
| oz120 | y you say that | 00:50 |
| jedijf | just kidding...have fun learning | 00:50 |
| oz120 | I used to know I had builtmy own gui and was working on a AI program with some friends then I was in a truck wreck no seat belt no air bag just me and a steering wheel meeting at 75 mph now I can't remember anything | 01:05 |
| ChinnoDog | oz120: you are logged in twice from your phone? | 16:35 |
| oz120 | huh it will disconnect and then reconnect must not recognize the dis as leave and somehow let me log twice | 16:36 |
| oz120 | thanx for the heads up | 16:41 |
| oz120 | nickserv login | 16:46 |

| ChinnoDog | So, Banshee default media player in 11.04 | 18:43 |
| ChinnoDog | With disabled Amazon MP3 store due to money and politics. | 18:44 |
| pleia2 | people obsess too much over defaults | 18:49 |
| pleia2 | it's like 2 clicks to enable it | 18:49 |
| pleia2 | it's just a setting | 18:49 |
| ChinnoDog | Well /we/ don't obsess over it, but the nontechnical users aren't going to think about it. | 18:49 |
| pleia2 | knowing what store you want to buy your music from isn't highly technical | 18:50 |
| pleia2 | if you have an amazon account and prefer to use that I don't think it'll be hard to figure out even for regular people | 18:50 |
| ChinnoDog | I think you are giving them too much credit. haha | 18:50 |
| ChinnoDog | They use what they see. | 18:51 |
| pleia2 | seems like configuring a whole new account with ubuntu one is a lot more work than clicking on the store settings to change them | 18:52 |
| ChinnoDog | Iff princessleia.com were the default home page and you were selling a book called "How to be more like pleia2" you would have thousands of orders on release day. | 18:53 |
| pleia2 | I am not saying that defaults don't have an impact | 18:54 |
| pleia2 | I'm saying that people freak out about them too much | 18:54 |
| pleia2 | people who want to change it can easily | 18:54 |
| pleia2 | not sure where all this love for amazon is coming from honestly, they've long been criticized in the open source world for their patent issuse (one click ordering most notoriously) | 18:56 |
| pleia2 | I guess it's trendy to hate Canonical :) | 18:58 |
| teddy-dbear | who's more hated. Canonical or Microsoft? | 19:09 |
| pleia2 | different leagues | 19:09 |
| teddy-dbear | same basicthing | 19:09 |
| teddy-dbear | they both do things that users end up either liking or hating | 19:10 |
| SamuraiAlba | Good bacon to all! | 19:14 |
| andrew | Wait, we are supposed to hate Canonical now? I must have missed that memo. | 19:19 |
| jedijf | all the other distros do | 19:19 |
| jedijf | purists...anti-social....basement dwellers | 19:20 |
| SamuraiAlba | what happened with Canonical? | 19:21 |
| ssweeny | why do we hate canonical? is it the banshee thing? | 19:22 |
| pleia2 | apparently | 19:22 |
| teddy-dbear | hey, I'm in a basement now :P | 19:22 |
| SamuraiAlba | banshee? | 19:22 |
| ssweeny | canonical wanted a cut of the money banshee sends to GNOME for amazon purchases | 19:23 |
| ssweeny | the banshee guys said no, so the amazon plugin will be disabled by default | 19:23 |
| SamuraiAlba | ahhh | 19:23 |
| ssweeny | i think them asking for 75% was a bit much | 19:23 |
| teddy-dbear | I'll probable just stick with Rhytmbox | 19:23 |
| ssweeny | but i can understand them wanting a cut | 19:23 |
| ssweeny | regardless of if they "deserve" one | 19:24 |
| * ssweeny is actually a huge banshee fan in general | 19:26 | |
| ssweeny | glad they're making the switch | 19:26 |
| * pleia2 still plays mp3s with mplayer | 19:26 | |
| * ssweeny has way too much music for that | 19:26 | |
| SamuraiAlba | so... Fedora time? | 19:26 |
| SamuraiAlba | I have over 200GB of MP3s | 19:26 |
| ssweeny | i've never had a good experience on fedora | 19:26 |
| ssweeny | i did try linux mint recently and i'm rather impressed | 19:27 |
| SamuraiAlba | I finally got runescape running fine in Firefox under Ubuntu, too | 19:27 |
| jedijf | ssweeny: ewww | 19:28 |
| jedijf | to mint | 19:28 |
| ssweeny | jedijf: no likey the mint? | 19:28 |
| jedijf | ssweeny: maybe there was too much hype...i just don't get it | 19:29 |
| ssweeny | i like the tiered updates | 19:29 |
| ssweeny | and the menu is pretty slick | 19:29 |
| ssweeny | otherwise it's basically ubuntu | 19:29 |
| jedijf | first coolatta brainfreeze for 2011 | 22:12 |
| JonathanD | heh | 22:16 |
