[12:12] <airurando> afternoon all
[12:28] <airurando> remember the monthly IRC team meeting will be held this Wednesday at 8pm here.
[21:45] <mokmeister> hello!
[22:04] <moylan> hi
[22:06] <mokmeister> hi moylan, how're things?
[22:06] <moylan> getting by, yourself?
[22:07] <mokmeister> yeah, not so bad
[22:07] <moylan> looking forward to 11.04?
[22:08] <mokmeister> Yeah, have the beta running away (and crashing) on one of the pcs, I kinda like (ish) unity
[22:09] <mokmeister> I'm sticking with 10.04 on my main desktop for quite a while though, methinks! :D
[22:09] <moylan> haven't tried it yet.  short on systems to test it on.  anxious about unity as i don't like change for the sake of change.  still on 10.04 on main system.
[22:11] <mokmeister> yeah, 10.04 is too good! :D
[22:12] <mokmeister> I like the side bar in unity, it's something I've been doing with gnome panels for a while, what with widescreens and all, it seems pointless taking up space on the bottom of your screen
[22:13] <moylan> i'm used to having a popup panel at the bottom.  not a fan of the current fad of widescreens.
[22:20] <moylan> planning on going to the release party?
[22:20] <mokmeister> Nope, down in Limerick
[22:21] <mokmeister> will head along to the ubuntu hour and see what's going on methinks!
[22:21] <moylan> isn't there a ubuntu group down in limerick?  thought there was.
[22:21] <mokmeister> Kinda agree with you on the wide screen thing, I do like a squarer panel meself
[22:22] <mokmeister> well, the ubuntu hour is planned for the 28th in the Absolut hotel
[22:22] <moylan> it's better for reading text.  a portrait screen would be best for displaying a full page.  but definitely taller than the widescreens.
[22:28] <mokmeister> hi res, big screens, you could have pages all lined up in widescreen! ;)
[22:32] <moylan> they used to make a screen that rotated 90' great for swapping between formats.
[22:32] <mokmeister> yeah, I vaguely remember something like that.
[22:34] <moylan> now it's just bigger and bigger screens.  not sure that is progress.
[22:36] <mokmeister> I thought bigger was better.... ;)
[22:37] <moylan> but the bigger screens use more power.  i'd be quite happy with a good 15' rather than getting a 19' wide screen just to see the same amount of lines in vim.
[22:42] <mokmeister> Ah well, sure a 40 inch lcd probably wouldn't use as much power as a 20 inch CRT, so I wouldn't be overly worried about that.
[22:46] <moylan> ah but a 15' lcd uses less power than a 17' lcd if chosen carefully.  i prefer to use as little leccy as possible.
[23:00] <mokmeister> right, time for bed, g'nite
[23:00] <moylan> o/
