| Juzzy | yea actually | 01:56 |
| wrst | really cool | 01:56 |
| Juzzy | I get random recruiters all the time asking me for weird languages | 01:56 |
| * wrst is a bean counter so knows nothing of the computer job world | 01:56 | |
| Juzzy | one has a standing order for ruby developers but they dont advertise the positions at all | 01:56 |
| linuxman410 | wrst have u ever tried aptosid | 01:57 |
| Juzzy | python would be a weird language to be exclusive to | 01:57 |
| wrst | ahh cool Juzzy might invite him in here sometime to give you a yell if that is ok? | 01:57 |
| Juzzy | sure. | 01:57 |
| wrst | Juzzy: he does other things but not for sure what | 01:57 |
| wrst | cool, thanks Juzzy | 01:57 |
| Juzzy | moving to nashville area? | 01:57 |

| wrst | Juzzy: actually moving to the states his wife is from the US he is from south africa | 01:58 |

| Juzzy | ah | 01:58 |
| linuxman410 | wrst some dummy in puppy linux irc room told me to use windows i said no way stupid | 01:59 |

| Juzzy | or whatever it is | 01:59 |
| wrst | I think so Juzzy | 01:59 |
| Juzzy | that can be harder | 01:59 |
| Juzzy | there's already a limited market on that, and indians spam the shit out of it | 01:59 |
| wrst | i forget what he said he had Juzzy I will find out | 01:59 |

| linuxman410 | wrst they are going to get nice or face the linuxman cause i will tell them how it is | 02:01 |
| wrst | thanks Juzzy for the info | 02:02 |
| wrst | ha ha linuxman410, puppy haven't tried that before | 02:02 |
| linuxman410 | most guys in puppylinux room were still in diapers when i started using linux | 02:02 |
| wrst | no wait I have used puppy its the super light one right? | 02:03 |
| linuxman410 | yeah | 02:03 |
| linuxman410 | wrst i started using linux in 1998 | 02:04 |
| wrst | what did you start out with linuxman410? | 02:05 |
| linuxman410 | mandrake 7.0 | 02:05 |
| wrst | ahh yes mandriva now | 02:06 |
| wrst | and of course mageia is a fork | 02:06 |
| linuxman410 | yes that is the one | 02:06 |
| wrst | i'm a big fan of mageia | 02:06 |
| linuxman410 | i always like mandriva one | 02:06 |
| wrst | yes me too | 02:07 |
| wrst | its a very solid distro i'm not a huge kde fan, but they do a good job with kde | 02:08 |
| linuxman410 | i also used debian 2.2 | 02:08 |
| linuxman410 | wrst with aptosid u have to exit x to do all upgrades | 02:10 |
| wrst | linuxman410: that's weird, why? | 02:10 |
| linuxman410 | i tried it in x and it crashed | 02:10 |
| linuxman410 | wrst it is based on wheezy | 02:11 |
| wrst | yeah I may give wheezy a try | 02:11 |
| linuxman410 | wrst aptosid is a rolling release you just have to upgrade to go to next version | 02:12 |
| wrst | yeah only thing even with wheezy the packages aren't nearly as fresh as arch | 02:13 |
| linuxman410 | wrst i could never figure out arch | 02:13 |
| wrst | linuxman410: never had any trouble as long as you follow the wiki word for word | 02:13 |
| wrst | but I wouldn't suggest going into their irc to get support | 02:14 |
| linuxman410 | wrst are the smarty pants | 02:15 |
| wrst | they just tell you to go read the documentation :) | 02:16 |
| wrst | and usually that is a smarty pants, but the documentation is really that good | 02:16 |
| wrst | if ubuntu had arch's documentation it would be flat out awesome | 02:16 |
| linuxman410 | wrst i went into one irc room and they got real smart and i told them no one should use their stupid os | 02:16 |
| wrst | yeah its a little bit of an elitist group | 02:17 |
| linuxman410 | wrst one guy threaten to ban me i told him to go ahead i would be back under another name | 02:18 |
| wrst | that's one of those deals where you kinda have to fit into the way they do things | 02:18 |
| wrst | i've just never asked anything in there :) | 02:19 |
| linuxman410 | i like to go into the windows room on account of my username | 02:19 |
| linuxman410 | wrst i like to ask questions about windows 3.1 | 02:20 |
| wrst | windows 3.1 ha ha | 02:21 |
| linuxman410 | like how can i install internet explorer 8 in 3.1 | 02:21 |
| wrst | ha | 02:21 |
| linuxman410 | wrst i do not think they like me in there | 02:22 |
| wrst | well... ;) | 02:22 |
| linuxman410 | wrst its all good | 02:23 |
| Juzzy | <linuxman410> wrst i started using linux in 1998 | 03:00 |
| Juzzy | <wrst> what did you start out with linuxman410? | 03:00 |

| Juzzy | but whatever | 03:03 |
| wrst | Juzzy: you all are veterans in here on linux compared to me I started with ubuntu 7.04 and had trouble with broadcom wireless and moved to whatever mandriva was at the time they had a much easier way of getting broadcom to work, but then came 7.10 with the auto hardware driver thing (jockey) and I was pretty well set on ubuntu | 10:26 |
