rwwnah, hopefully they got the picture and won't be back for non-support reasons06:43
Tm_Tdid you talk to celthunder how is actions were not ok?06:43
rwwmore concerned about the channel members that think it's appropriate to link to 2g1c and then laugh about it while simultaneously complaining about offtopicness, personally06:44
Tm_Tthat, indeed06:44
elkyIs it wrong that I read that as "flat out burn that places"06:45

mneptokI HAVE AN NVIDIA CARD!20:18
* mneptok bounces and awaits his prize20:18
* Tm_T gives mneptok a cookie and pats20:26
LjLmneptok: no can mine :(20:26
gordpeople talking to the bot as if its a person never gets old20:30
gordits cute/adorable20:31
rwwLjL: you can, it's just not efficient!20:31
rwwgord: people talking to me as if i'm a bot is fun ^.^20:31
LjLrww: tell mneptok about mining on nvidia20:46
rwwmneptok: nvidia likes points that float better than points that sink, or maybe the other way around, and bitcoin likes the one it doesn't like, so nvidia cards are crap and you should buy 10 million FPGAs and destroy the bitcoin economy instead.20:47

IdleOnelooks like a coordinated attack of the trolls22:00
PiciJust trying to get some real work done here and can't pay full attention to IRC22:00
CoreyIdleOne: I'd not go that far.22:00
IdleOneok, so it's just a bunch of kids.22:01
CoreyI'm curious as to folks' thoughts on whether or not some distributions are reasonable to expect a certain level of technical competence from their respective userbases.22:41
CoreyObviously Ubuntu targets everyone from the grandmothers on up the chain, but not every distro does this.22:41
charlie-tcaWhy wouldn' t they be?22:48
charlie-tcaThe distro should be entitled to decide who/what group their own user base will be.22:50

LjLGuest40866: well that's a perfectly acceptable question to ask in #ubuntu. on the other hand, your thoughts on what computers were designed for aren't.23:00
