[05:32] <SycPuppy> hmmm, Been trying to figure out the menu's in 11.10 and there is so much eye candy pre-loaded it's taking around a minute to open those menu's on the left, wondering if some1 could tell me what tab under system lets me kill all that "eye-candy" as I'm using a AMD K-8 on a fried MB with buggy memory and it might take awhile to locate it since last ubuntu I was serious with was 9.04
[06:15] <SycPuppy> Is unity added over gnome or is it independant of it?
[07:31] <SycPuppy> 28 people afk?

[23:13] <bkerensa> I was eating lunch at a park on Ellis St the first time I visted SF.... and this guy came out and he looked like Billy Crystal (The Comedian) and he started choking out this black guy
[23:14] <bkerensa> I was like WTF
[23:14] <bkerensa> apparently he was a undercover cop and the black guy had crack in his mouth
[23:14] <bkerensa> he was not Billy Crystal :D
[23:14] <bkerensa> I did get to meet Billy Crystal a few years later at the Orpheum though
[23:24] <MarkDude> Was Billy on crack also?
[23:25] <MarkDude> Years later?
