[00:23] technoviking: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1440332 [00:23] lolwut [00:24] "Ubuntu Lucid Lynx is in development, use only for testing purposes!!!" [00:24] * nigelb sees a case of http://xkcd.com/386/ [00:24] * popey goes to bed to avoid this minor detail [00:25] of course, I hven't slept all night, but that's differnt. [00:25] nigelb: snorting instant coffee? [00:26] paultag: sick. slept during day. Now I can't sleep. [00:27] nigelb: should have snorted instant coffee [00:27] I haven't eaten properly all day. [00:28] coffee helps [00:38] so nigelb should review mp's [08:10] Morning everyone [08:52] hello kim0 [08:52] duanedesign: hey there [10:36] daker: Hi there, are you still working on phpbb formula ? if not, please unassign it [12:34] another day, another day. [12:35] paultag: subtle change to readfeeder.net last night [12:35] mhall119: oh? [13:04] hmm not sure having that burger before job interview was wise [13:04] need to find some after diner mints now [13:05] czajkowski: I did that once. But I think I'd remembered to bring mints or mint gum or something with me [13:06] chicken burger coverred in pesto [13:06] ouchie [13:06] yum [13:06] but yeah, ouch on breath [13:07] am well early it's only after 2 interview at 3:30 was paranoid in case of riots and trafic [13:07] Oh, haha, right London riots [13:07] czajkowski: you're not out fighting the power? [13:07] riots are always a good way to keep goverments in check [13:07] no only thugs and knackers out there [13:08] not these kind. just looting fornthe sake of looting [13:08] london calling :) [13:08] czajkowski: damn. They should be going around breaking CCTV cameras [13:08] absolutely no tolerance for that kind of thuggery [13:08] grr /ignore paultag [13:08] czajkowski: what? [13:09] czajkowski: you like being watched all the time? [13:09] the brittish goverment is a bit crazy, just like the US goverment [13:09] sometimes a little riot keeps things from getting too out of hand [13:09] paultag: do you know why there are riots going on over here [13:09] czajkowski: nope, not paying attention to any of it. I'm sure it's because someone got shot or some bullshit reason [13:09] but it never matters :) [13:10] people will riot if they want to riot regardless [13:10] paultag: you are talking shite. [13:10] mkay [13:10] innocent peoplehave been killed and others injured over this. [13:11] and that's a shame. I'm not advocating what they're doing directly [13:11] just saying that goverments should be scared of their people [13:11] not the other way around [13:12] From what I've gathered they're no longer rioting due to any particular reason. [13:12] Pici: that's how it always goes :) [13:12] And is not like they're directing their anger at the government, they're destroying their fellow citizens homes and businesses. [13:13] Pici: again, not advocating what they're doing directly [13:13] what they're doing kinda sucks [13:13] but the idea that people have the balls to stand up to their goverment rules [13:13] so that's how I like to see it, even if it's not true [13:15] paultag: its not true at all, thry are not even standimg up to thr government justnran sacking places for nonreason othern than theybwant new tv or phone [13:16] I don't think you're reading what I'm saying :) [13:16] I like the idea of rioting [15:00] * duanedesign waves at paultag [15:00] duanedesign: heyya man [15:04] the rioting is utterly without merit, just vandalism [15:05] duanedesign: how've you been? [15:08] * nigelb waves! [15:08] How's everyone [15:08] paultag: doing pretty good. Counting the days till I get my new laptop. [15:08] hello nigelb [15:08] duanedesign: mac? ;) [15:09] ha! [15:09] :) [15:09] Well, its worth buying for the hardware, tbh. [15:10] AFter reading all the latest about the apple lawsuits trying to squash Android it would be hard for me to buy from apple [15:10] nigelb: i agreee. I used macs exclusively for years, until I started using Linux [15:10] The next best is probably Thinkpad [15:10] nigelb: yeah, that is what i ordered [15:11] duanedesign: hehe :D [15:11] almost got a System76 it was close [15:11] duanedesign: nice :) [15:11] The system76's look nice, wish they posted over here to AU [15:12] I got a little look from an overseas visitor [15:14] the system76 has the hard drive caddy option which would be awesome. [15:17] paultag: Someone on the local python mailing list wants to write an operating system in python. [15:17] I'm still laughing [15:18] nigelb: I came ->||<- this close to actually doing that [15:18] paultag: guess what the first reply is? [15:18] nigelb: I figured out a way to do it, and had the chance to do it for school credit [15:18] nigelb: what? [15:18] "Why are you not doing it in ruby?" [15:18] haha [15:19] nigelb: but yeah, it's actually doable [15:19] nigelb: the kernel anyway [15:19] I know people who've done filesystems in python [15:19] and I think if you get the kernel right, you should be able to layer pyPy over it [15:19] Not the entire OS though. [15:19] nigelb: well there's a line [15:20] nigelb: because python can't be run on the CPU you need to port the runtime to a kernelspace tool [15:20] nigelb: but you can do stuff like the implementation of malloc etc in Python [15:20] so it's really a layered design with kernel-level priv'd python [15:21] ended up writing the kernel in asm + c insted [15:21] I'm lame I know [15:22] dude, you got a computer/machine to boot with a kernel you wrote. That is *NOT* lame. [15:22] yeah, but it's so traditional ;) [15:23] paultag: Honestly, I prefer traditional and stable over new and breaking in unknown ways. [15:24] I still love postgres/mysql over nosql. [15:24] nigelb: then you use BSD :) [15:24] nigelb: no reason to write a new kernel if you don't want new and brekey [16:26] * pleia2 makes toast with jam for breakfast, because of randall's blog posts [16:26] such yummy jam pictures [16:26] paultag: have you looked at Singularity? [17:00] mhall119: yeah [17:00] mhall119: it's cute [17:00] but nothing else [17:00] and MS, so short-sighted :) [17:06] the fact that the kernel is mostly written in a bytecode language was interesting [17:06] I couldn't ever get it to run though [17:08] they had disabled a part of the kernel needed to boot it up in virtualbox, and I couldn't re-compile the Sing# files in Mono to re-enable it [23:27] Joeb454: the Ubuntu Beginners TEam is having a meeting in 35 minutes.
