rick_h_full tool factor in effect13:28
brouschwelcome to muskegon13:28
rick_h_yea, basically13:29
brouschthe flint of west michigan13:29
snap-lI thought it was more Ferndale than Flint13:29
rick_h_this is the guy that was doing night PC monitoring shifts for mejier and wanted to know how he could get to 'do what you do with the working from home and great pay' in less than a year 'without going to school, I don't have time for that'13:29
snap-lrick_h_: Oh boy.13:30
snap-lOne of those "You fuck around on the Internet all day and get paid $$" folks? :)13:30
brouschPC Pro Schools!13:31
rick_h_well, it's the case of "I'm in computers"13:31
rick_h_so you ask and find out he sits in a control center with a bunch of monitors and if any lights go red he calls someone13:31
snap-lYeah, that's all we do; surf the net and collect paychekcs13:31
brouschtell him to start a blog. it is the road to riches with no effort13:31
snap-lOr a podcast13:32
brouschhe'll need an editor ...13:32
snap-lHeck, we're only .00001% away from that island.13:32
snap-lprogress!13:32
rick_h_have we made $0.0001 yet?13:33
snap-lI think you got a referral once.13:33
snap-lunless you bought from your own code. ;)13:33
rick_h_phew, almost had to use a soap api at work...but they don't support the api for the admin side of the app, only the report generation13:33
wolfger.00001% away? Or .00001% towards?13:33
snap-lrick_h_: Oh God13:33
snap-lwolfger: What do you think? :)13:33
rick_h_26 clicks with 0 conversions so far according to AMZ13:34
wolfgerI think it's the opposite of what you said13:34
tjagodabrousch: It hasn't crashed on you?13:34
tjagodaMine crashes if I try to use the 3d matrix screensaver =(13:34
rick_h_I need to tie the podcast into a business so I can write off gear expenses13:34
snap-lrick_h_: Well, 4 more clicks, and we can get 6% of nothing instead of 4%13:34
brouschtjagoda: nope. and it's been through half a dozen sleep cycles too13:34
tjagoda..wow13:34
wolfgerrick_h_: Shh. Don't say "amz" too loudly. snap-l will blow a gasket.13:34
tjagodaI crash a few times a day13:35
rick_h_ruh roh13:35
rick_h_I think I might upgrade today13:35
rick_h_in place upgrade on the laptop13:35
tjagodaThe register just posted I terrible review of beta 213:35
rick_h_I don't have anything due today, might as well break my systesm to bits13:35
snap-lwolfger: You might want to try a 1980s toy, because my ripcord is a little hardr to find.13:35
wolfgerlol13:35
tjagodahttp://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/04/14/ubuntu_second_beta/13:35
tjagodarick_h: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/04/14/ubuntu_second_beta/13:35
rick_h_and no, that doesn't mean unity will touch this13:35
brouschtjagoda: i just installed the lastest dist-upgrade. we'll see if it dies13:36
wolfgersnap-l: That's not how I recall our last conversation going.13:36
snap-lrick_h_: Oh, you know you'll give it 10 minutes.13:36
tjagodahmm13:36
tjagodaI should do a dist-upgrade when I get home13:36
rick_h_snap-l: hmmm, doubtful13:36
tjagodaI only did a normal upgrade last night13:36
brouschwolfger: it's not that he hates amazon, it's that he is a big ubuntu one fanboy13:37
wolfgerbrousch: it's both13:37
snap-lwolfger: Talk to my UPS guy. I don't hate Amazon. :)13:37
brouschall of the nautilus icons changed to a very greyish brown13:39
brouschthey all look disabled13:39
brouschlike they're unavailable13:39
brouschi think all of the latest icon changes are less intuitive than the previous icons13:41
rick_h_crap, what's the upgrade -d command? I just had it and lost it13:44
wolfgersnap-l: you have an irrational hatred of AmazonMP313:44
brouschrick_h_: do-release-upgrade ?13:45
rick_h_no, that's not it. You send a -d for development release to this command13:45
rick_h_heh, guess that has it, I'm thinking of a different one though, oh well13:45
rick_h_I'll try this one then13:45
brouschyou're going natty on your main laptop?13:46
rick_h_yea, nothing due for work today and having a giant WTH moment13:47
brouschhm, i think it's not using the theme it says it is13:47
rick_h_11 installed packages are no longer supported by Canonical. You can13:47
rick_h_still get support from the community.13:47
rick_h_hmmm, I wonder what those 11 are :/13:48
rick_h_it would be nice to have those listed13:48
brouschawesome and vim13:48
rick_h_ah, details, got it13:48

rick_h_You have to download a total of 1336M. This download will take about13:49
rick_h_23 minutes with your connection.13:49
rick_h_let-r-rip13:49
brouschbite me13:49
brousch1.3GB in 23 minutes13:49
rick_h_though times like this I do wish I had the higher end plan13:50
brouschheh, tried to take a screenshot of the funky theme and it locked up with half-transparent windows. good thing i'm using a VM so i can take a screenshot of the locked up screenshot13:53
brouschnow to wander launchpad13:55
brouschmust be video glitch. changing out of full screen mode fixed it13:56
brouschheh, screenshots in unity are apparntly useless13:57
wolfgerhow so?14:04
wolfgeroh, nm. I scrolled back :-)14:04
rick_h_wtf is with the perma broadcast of gib? I mean, does anyone want to see video of PC? really?14:08
snap-lrick_h_: I think gib is going to be the next JustinTV14:11
snap-lI'm getting a little tired of him saying that everything needs broadcasting14:12
snap-lI understand that it's new and cool, and likely interests him, but logistically it's a pain in the ass.14:15
snap-lUnless he wants to spend his money buying bandwidth (myfi), I'd rather not be a party to abusing someone else's bandwidth.14:16
snap-lAnd he's been to other release parties. Nobody, but nobody wants to watch a bunch of guys drink beer and talk about / install Ubuntu14:17
snap-lunless a) they're participating, or b) you're Diggnation.14:17
rick_h_I think I need to send him the content article I was reading today14:17
snap-lhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/goldbox/ref=pe_36550_19506740_pe_00_head14:18
rick_h_http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2011/04/12/make-your-content-make-a-difference/14:18
rick_h_snap-l: you suck...that is all14:18
snap-lrick_h_: Just let me play with it once you get it. ;)14:19
rick_h_I can't...man but me wants...14:19
rick_h_I think my wife would hide me in a muskeengon swamp if I did14:19
snap-lPretty sure she would.14:23
rick_h_I can't manage to close the window though lol.14:23
rick_h_you know a new one is coming before school I bet14:23
snap-lrick_h_: They're moving towards free14:23
snap-lI an feel it14:24
snap-lIt's a reverse auction on the kindle14:24
rick_h_yea, but I'm not willing to go ads for it14:24
rick_h_I'll pay for the dippy device, and you know the DX isn't on that free list14:24
snap-lNot for $114, but what about $25?14:24
rick_h_and that dx has 3g, hmmmm14:25
snap-lIf the ads prove successful, they might even go lower14:25
snap-lSend them out to the prime customers.14:25
rick_h_no, I'm completely against ads on there14:25
rick_h_110%14:25
snap-lYou are, but how many people are?14:25
rick_h_it's like saying ubuntu can put ads on the boot/shutdown screens. No way14:26
rick_h_I know, and even pople against it will end up with them14:26
rick_h_they'll sell :( but I can't stand the lack of places I can go sans-ads any more14:26
wolfger$300 for a Kindle. On sale. Really??? People pay for that?14:27
rick_h_man, that DX at that price is gold...ugh...14:27
snap-lYeah, I'm not a fan of ads either.14:27
rick_h_wolfger: it's the larger DX model14:28
snap-lIt's the holy grail of eBook readers14:28
snap-lAh to be able to read PDF files without zooming...14:28
rick_h_exactly, especially since I've started to get teh books straight from the publishers in pdf form14:28
snap-lhttps://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/2708114:28
rick_h_though I still think it'd be too heavy for that bed time reading14:28
wolfgerrick_h_: I don't care what model it is. It's sole purpose in life is to allow you to buy overpriced e-books. If it's not free, you're paying too much.14:29
rick_h_snap-l: nice, I was thinking of looking that upo14:29
snap-lwolfger: You know not what you talk about14:29
rick_h_wolfger: yea, because it's free to deviver hardware with month-long battery life and 1000+ books in one sleek device14:29
snap-lOr you're trolling. :)14:29
brouschi can buy an ipad for $300!14:29
wolfgersnap-l: It has a purpose other than reading e-books that cost as much as hardcover books?14:29
rick_h_right, and an i-pad sucks for reading books14:30
brouschno way. steve jobs says it is perfect for books14:30
rick_h_it all depends on the books you get I guess14:30
snap-lwolfger: Yes, and it's called reading discounted PDF and ePub files from tech publishers14:30
wolfgerhmm14:30
rick_h_if I didn't just write a fat check to the tax man that thing would be ordered14:30
rick_h_and I'd owe my wife a lot of points for forgiveness14:31
rick_h_the darn thing is too big to hide from here :)14:31
rick_h_/here/her14:31
brouschtell her you got a bumper for your old one14:31
brouschso it just seems bigger14:31
snap-lrick_h_: You wouldn't have time to read it, because your ass would be giving foot-rubs every waking moment.14:31
rick_h_lol14:31
rick_h_I might be able to get $99 for mine, that covers part of it14:32
rick_h_anyone need a $200 python script written? :)14:32
brouschtons of them on rent a coder14:32
brouschit will only tak you 2 weeks14:32
rick_h_lol, awesome14:33
snap-l"I want a new website. NExt facebook. IPO opportunity. $200"14:33
rick_h_"I'd like a copy of digg for $50"14:33
rick_h_ooh, pricey one there14:33
snap-l"Meeet me at Caribou for my awesome new business opportunity."14:33
rick_h_lol, "VOIP is the future!"14:34
tjagodaMy tax return paid for my blackberry playbook14:36
tjagoda=)14:36
rick_h_tjagoda: heh, well it's all good. Just means I didn't give the govt a nice loan all year interest free14:38
snap-ltjagoda: Oh, so you're the other person that bought one?14:38
rick_h_but enjoy that playbook, loving the mixed reviews coming in14:38
tjagodaExcellent hardware reviews so far14:38
jrwrenbrousch: you can snipe zuckerberg for all I care.14:38
rick_h_so so from the one's I've read14:39
tjagodaSupposedly 10 hours battery life14:39
rick_h_and bad on the software side14:39
tjagodaNobody's really been able to review much of the software14:39
tjagodaIt all really comes down to whether or not your article was written my somebody lusting for an iPad14:39
rick_h_heh, I don't think it's that single minded14:39
tjagodaSo many of the reviews are obviously biased in one direction or the other14:39
tjagodaeither in favor or blackberry or in favor of apple14:40
wolfgerrick_h_: you could stream the launch party on a $20 pay-per-view :-D14:40
tjagodanobody seems to care about the Android tab's14:40
rick_h_and I've seen 7hrs - 10hrs dependind on how the battery test was done http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/13/blackberry-playbook-review/14:40
tjagodaI like that both it's camera and display are real HD14:40
greg-grick_h_: thanks for that last tweet :)14:41
rick_h_greg-g: no problem, good stuff14:41
greg-gI felt bad, I/you beat them to the punch by a couple days ;)14:41
rick_h_ok, upgrade done...brb (hopefully)14:42
greg-geek14:42
tjagodaHas a mini-HDMI port too14:42
tjagodaepid14:42
tjagodaepic*14:42
brouschRIP rick_h_14:42
rick_h_yay, made it this far14:44
rick_h_ugh, seems a small delay in things atm14:46
greg-gdon't worry, it is just churning through your dotfiles removing things that aren't in the standard user interface14:46
brouschi think they are shoving a bunch of updates through this morning14:47
brouschevery time i dist-upgrade there's new stuff14:47
rick_h_ugh, still no dual monitor...not that I was overly hopefull14:51
rick_h_but held out a small chance14:51
snap-lhuh, didn't realize there's still a PowerPC Ubuntu14:52
snap-lOne of the guys at MUG was mentioning something about PowerPC14:53
greg-grick_h_: no dual monitor? isn't that kind of a showstopper?14:53
greg-gok, question, if a non-profit organization that funds some full-time paid devs on an open-source project that has an active/large volunteer dev community was thinking of doing some R&D type experiments on the code...14:59
rick_h_greg-g: been like this since I updated my bios back in 10.0415:00
greg-gLike, doing throw-away interface changes etc, what do you think the volunteer dev communities' reaction would be to a call for help? These experiments will most likely be choosen by the organization not the community (but of coruse with community input)15:00
rick_h_greg-g: so if...?15:00
greg-gI was thinking, initially, it'd be "heck no I'm not doing your dirty work for you"15:00
greg-gbut then I thought that these might be fun/interesting/out of the ordinary so it actually might illicit contributions from the volunteer side15:01
rick_h_well, I think it'd be mixed15:01
rick_h_right, R&D == more fun usually15:01
greg-gyeah, always, I guess15:01
rick_h_but also might not be 'scratch my itch'15:01
snap-lDepends on how it's sold15:01
rick_h_and then there's the 'hey, you're hiring people to work on that, either hire me or forget it'15:01
rick_h_yea15:02
snap-lIf you sell it as "we'd like you to do the heavy lifting, and we'll cherry-pick the goodies", ten it'll be bad.15:02
greg-gright right15:02
snap-lif you sell it as "we're holding a contest..."15:02
snap-lthen that might work15:02
* greg-g nods15:02
rick_h_bah, I'm only on 10.1015:02
greg-galright, thanks for being a sounding board15:03
* greg-g goes back to this email15:03
snap-lgreg-g: There's a way to make what they want palletable15:03
snap-lcontests might not be the way, but something where it's collaborative, with the idea that the community might not have the final word15:04
brouschrick_h_: you have to upgrade through each release, you can't skip them15:04
brouschexcept LTS to LTS15:04
greg-gsnap-l: right, definitely15:04
rick_h_yea, and the maverick->natty won't go because of existing packages it looks like15:05
rick_h_the problem with contents is that some people are paid devs15:05
snap-lgreg-g: Or they could just tell the truth15:06
snap-l"Hey, we're not UI designers, and we want the best interface possible"15:06
snap-l"We don't have enough $$ to pay, but we'd like some help to make this awesome"15:06
snap-l(or whatever the situation is)15:06
* greg-g nods15:07
greg-gsnap-l: yeah, definitely nuanced15:07
snap-lworst case, the community says no, so then you know what you can work with15:07
snap-lbut I'm sure if they have a developed community, someone will step up15:08
snap-lI mean, there's people that develop Linux for free, even though Linus and others are paid.15:08
snap-lHave I mentioned how much I hate Java lately?15:13
snap-lbecause there's a lot of stupid in this language.15:13
waldo323is that a class i missed?15:14
waldo323;)15:14
snap-lex: I'm looking to use Jax-ws15:14
snap-l2.1.7 is distributed as a .jar, with ne class called "main"15:15
snap-l2.2.3 is a zip file with everything that I need, apparently.15:15
snap-lExcept 2.2.3 gives me this admonition that JDK 1.6 ships with blah blah, which is not compatible with blah blah unless I use the blah blah extension to blah blah the blah blah15:16
snap-lAh, it's because I need to accept the CDDL before using 2.1.715:17
snap-lHow clever.15:17
jrwrensnap-l: you basically have to be a java dev to rn that shit. best step up.15:21
snap-ljrwren: So, in order to run java, first I need to be a java developer15:24
snap-lthat's consistent with my experience.15:25
snap-lMaybe I should send away for one of those certifications so I can learn the secret handshake15:25
jrwrenthat is my beleif.15:26
jrwreni remember trying to run java servets when I was a sysadmin, I basically had to be a java dev.15:26
jrwrenI don't think that has changed.15:26
snap-ljrwren: Nah, just dump the war files in a directory, and restart the server15:27
snap-lOr, more accurately, dump the war files in a directory, and take down the server15:27
snap-lsame effect, really.15:27
snap-l.war. HUNGH, good God y'all15:28
snap-lWhat is it good for? Fuckin' up my TOMCAT15:28
snap-lWoooo15:28
wolfgerLOL15:29
jrwrenyeah, then many apps aren't web configurationble.15:29
jrwrenso go edit some properties file somewhere.15:29
jrwrenand often finding that file is a bitch because its burried deep in some j2ee server location15:30
snap-ljrwren: And this is reason #1 why I go to MichiPUG and not Java Anonymous15:30
jrwrenlol.15:30
jrwrenyou go to michipug now?15:30
snap-lOn occasion15:30
snap-lYou've seen me there. ;)15:31
snap-lI'm the guy that's not rick_h_ ;)15:31
rick_h_ok, so getting desparate now...did I mention that I deserve what I get for trying to upgrade to natty?15:33
rick_h_I think my system is about to blow up, time to get the usb drive ready lol15:34
snap-lDid you back up prior to this?15:34
rick_h_nope :)15:36
brouschdid you lobotomize yourself last night?15:36
rick_h_pretty much15:37
rick_h_no, most of my stuff is in git repos or dropbox15:37
rick_h_made sure I pushed my git repos before starting this15:37
rick_h_though now that I did redo my colo I guess those git repos aren't in the 'cloud' any more15:37
brouscha common datacenter?15:38
brouschhow quaint15:38
rick_h_please sir, might I have a natty upgrade?15:38
wolfgersnap-l: so there's a whole 3 of you that go to Michipug?15:39
rick_h_ok, well uninstalling all of xorg makes the upgrade process go thorugh for me15:42
rick_h_well, at least it starts, we'll see how it turns out in the end15:42
rick_h_another 1.3gb of downloads yay15:43
brouschgeez15:43
rick_h_uverse hates me today15:43
jrwreni haven't been to michipug in a long time.15:46
snap-lwolfger: There were over 10 people at the last meeting.15:47
snap-lDidn't think to get an accurate headcount15:47
wolfgersnap-l: then "I'm the guy that's not rick_h_" isn't all that helpful... :-p15:48
rick_h_no, that's a good help. we get confused a lot15:49
rick_h_:P15:49
snap-lI love Borders. Now I'm getting coupons in the mail that are "excludes toys, games, puzzles, and stuffed animals"15:49
rick_h_"not valid on tomatos, fabric softener, or fish"15:49
snap-lApparently I broke them by purchasing just about every Munchkin core set they had. ;)15:50
snap-l"40% coupon, + 10% borders member, + $5 bonus bucks"15:50
snap-land a free tasty beverage.15:51
jcastrorick_h_: this LG 2x looks awesome15:51
jcastrohttp://www.androidcentral.com/hands-lg-optimus-2x15:51
rick_h_jcastro: yea, the LG stuff is starting to look good15:53
jcastrolame that it's only 2.2 though15:53
rick_h_jcastro: you notice that there's a lack of trackballs on the new phones?15:53
jcastrono I didn't15:54
rick_h_yea, holding out for ice cream sandwhich for my next phone15:54
jcastroI don't know if I like that or not15:54
rick_h_thinking 4g + that will carry me for a bit15:54

snap-lbut Only 4/11 worked out how to change the background picture.

rick_h_https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2011-April/032997.html17:43
rick_h_dammit, I hate these new browsers with their controls spread across the whole width of their window17:43
rick_h_back, forward, stop, reload should all be in the same dippy place17:44
rick_h_and stop/reload should be the one button (which most do now)17:44
tjagodarick_h: You can change that in Firefox 4...17:44
tjagodaRight Click -> Customize, drag the button17:44
tjagodaFor instance, back, forward, stop, reload, and home are all right next to each other on the left of my menu17:45
rick_h_tjagoda: ah, good to know17:46
tjagodaand stop/reload are one button still17:46
rick_h_using FF since I pulled chrome out for the upgrade proces17:46

tjagodaChrome no longer has any HUGE features which I dont I think17:46
gamerchick02some of it is ubuntu goodness, and some of it is podcast babble17:47
rick_h_tjagoda: I'm not a fan of the top ui17:47
rick_h_and chrome (ime) is still much faster launch/etc17:47
rick_h_and when you get things like extension sync, that's a huge +1 for me (and why I just uninstalled it pre-upgrade, a fresh install will sync everything back)17:48
tjagodawhy would I care about fast launch?17:49
tjagodaI never close firefox17:49

rick_h_and then do a fresh install vs upgrade18:03
gamerchick02I have a bunch of stuff coming down the pipe for my blog: lococast review, Good Game and Good Game SP review, more impressions of ubuntu natty.18:03
rick_h_oh well, did I mention I deserve whatever I get for trying to do an upgrade today?18:03

gamerchick02nope18:03

tjagodaI have done upgrades since 200918:03
gamerchick02the problem isn't on my netbook, which i did an upgrade from maverick netbook.18:04
tjagodaI think my system76 shipped with 9.1018:04

rick_h_anyone know how to get from uuid to /dev/sda1-5?18:08

gamerchick02uh, is that a bad thing?18:11
snap-lNo, that's a good thing18:11

rick_h_downloading arch install now18:24
snap-lruh roh18:24
rick_h_along with a natty b2 as a backup I think18:24
rick_h_yea, I think this might be the straw beating on the camel18:24
rick_h_if the arch install goes through and I can at least use my system shortly...18:25
rick_h_only problem is I leave for GR in a few hours...ugh18:25
gamerchick02you have 2 computers though... i assume because you're on irc.18:25
Blazeixrick_h_: cool, just an fyi that ssh isn't installed ootb, so install openssh if you want to finish set up remotely18:26
brouschrick_h_: please do not refer to GR when you mean muskegon. that is like calling ann arbor flint18:27
rick_h_lol brousch18:28
rick_h_Blazeix: cool, good to know18:28
rick_h_yea, I've got a desktop that's running ubuntu server for build.bmark.us and such18:28
rick_h_so in terminal 3 on irc18:28
rick_h_while 4 is downloading a new iso18:29
rick_h_and 2 is doing a desktop install18:29
rick_h_but wife's laptop is downloading the iso for recovery stuff18:29
brouschut oh. it's always trouble when you have to get the wife's computer involved in an install18:29
rick_h_lol18:30
rick_h_easier to make the boot disks I think18:30
rick_h_and browsing to find the urls to the isos18:30
rick_h_Blazeix: yea, get ready for questions I guess. I know it's going to be a learning curve, but I think it's time to jump18:31
rick_h_feel free to tell me to shove off and goole :)18:31
Blazeixrick_h_: sure. This is the best resource: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners%27_Guide18:31
brouschwill you be changing all of your servers to match your new dev environment?18:32
rick_h_ty sir will bookmark once I get chrome/bookie back18:32
Blazeixit says "beginners", but there's a lot of arch-specific stuff18:32
rick_h_brousch: well, if it works my new desktop at work might turn into an arch install18:32
rick_h_I don't think I'll be changing wife/build server for now since I just got the thing running18:32
rick_h_we'll see, I'm not 100% arch will work for everything yet18:32
rick_h_sound I'm worried about tbh18:32
rick_h_but sound scares me in any linux18:33
brouschthere's always osx and virtualbox waiting for you18:33
gamerchick02wow, you're really using all your computing power.18:34
snap-lbrousch: Do you normally kick people when they're down? :)18:34
rick_h_brousch: yea, use vbox for windows stuff, but I've never had great luck mapping devices through an OS it didn't work with to a virtual machine18:34
Blazeixyeah, you'll definitely become intimately familiar with what your system is doing, since you have to set it up from scratch :)18:35
Blazeixthe wiki is super useful though18:35
gamerchick02i'm not elite enough to work with Arch. i dunno. seems like a lot of work.18:38
rick_h_heh, ubuntu has gotten to be so much work for me these days18:40
BlazeixIt can be a pain if you want the whole gnome ecosystem18:40
Blazeixmost people just have simple window managers, though18:40
BlazeixThough i do use nautilus, because it's so damn convenient.18:40
rick_h_thunar18:41
gamerchick02i, uh, guess i don't customize my computer that much?18:41
gamerchick02i'm using a straight install of natty though.18:41
brouschsnap-l: it's easier to kick them when they're down. i don't have to lift my leg so high.18:41
Blazeixrick_h_: have you used thunar's recent gvfs stuff? I'm considering moving back to it for that.18:42
Blazeixgvfs was the main reason I switched from thunar to nautilus18:42
rick_h_gvfs?18:44
rick_h_I only use the automount perl script18:44
Blazeixbrowsing ftp/smb by just navigating to it.18:45
rick_h_ah, nope18:45
rick_h_I don't use that18:46
gamerchick02rick_h_ is the move to arch to avoid Unity? (curious)18:48
rick_h_I've avoided unity for a couple of years now18:48
rick_h_I don't run gnome18:48
gamerchick02ah, ok.18:48
rick_h_zsh, awesomeWM, don't use gwibber, oo2, etc18:48
rick_h_so first thing I do is change all the ootb settings anyway18:48
gamerchick02oooh. so it makes sense for you to move to something else.18:48
gamerchick02what about going with something like Crunchbang?18:49
rick_h_thought about it, but it's a side thing. It's very dependant on ubuntu, etc18:50
gamerchick02it's based on Debian now.18:50
rick_h_ah, that's right, forgot they moved over18:50
gamerchick02yep.18:50
gamerchick02might be worth looking into.18:51
ColonelPanic001gamerchick02: I saw in the news recently - I'm sorry for your loss.18:53
ColonelPanic001You and the two other people that use Flock will have to switch to Firefox or Opera or something.18:53
ColonelPanic001:P18:53
gamerchick02i've long since switched to Chrome, as Flock wasn't available for ubuntu.18:54
gamerchick02it was good while it lasted.18:54
gamerchick02when they were bought by Zynga, i figured they'd be shutting down pretty soon.18:54
gamerchick02:(18:54

snap-lFlock was the social media browser, right?18:55
snap-lTHat seemed rather...um, what's the word... stupid?18:55
gamerchick02yes, it was, snap-l18:55
gamerchick02it's not really stupid. they had a nice integrated blog poster, and an easy way to post stuff to digg and whatnot18:56
ColonelPanic001It had some neat/interesting stuff18:56
ColonelPanic001just not something I'd use much18:56
ColonelPanic001I tried it out now and then18:56
snap-lgamerchick02: But it essentially was Firefox with a bunch of plugins for tossing content18:56
gamerchick02but, all that can be done through extensions in both chrome and firefox now18:56
ColonelPanic001yes.18:56
* snap-l never checked it out18:56
gamerchick02yes, it was.18:56
gamerchick02then it was based on Chromium for awhile, and they didn't release it for anything but Windows.18:57
gamerchick02that was one of it's downfalls. i think they had the most vocal users from linux and mac platforms18:57
snap-lWell, anything by Zynga isi suspect IMHO18:57
snap-lThey're about as beloved to me as Six Apart.18:57
gamerchick02oi. yeah18:57
ColonelPanic001I didn't know flock was anything but FF based18:58

snap-lWell, to be fair, they could have made some $$ off of MySpace19:01
ColonelPanic001I'm still convinced myshit was written by one drunken guy on a napkin while still at the bar.19:01
gamerchick02yes, but they didn't19:01
snap-lunfortunately, it was approximately 1 year before they bought it19:01
ColonelPanic001heh19:01
tjagodaI remember myspace19:01
tjagodaback when I thought facebook was strange19:02
ColonelPanic001"oh look, a f'ing terrible site known for being terrible, already on a steady decline. Let's buy it and make some money!"19:02
