| thafreak | So how about, day two of my two day practical exam, when most of the students were getting to the part where they install a lamp server on ubuntu | 14:08 |
|---|---|---|
| thafreak | it ended up being ubuntu release day | 14:08 |
| thafreak | so doing aptitude update took like 20 minutes | 14:08 |
| thafreak | i should have set up a caching proxy or something... | 14:08 |
| canthus13 | thafreak: Awesome. | 15:20 |
| thafreak | yup | 15:36 |
| thafreak | it was all like...this is so slow | 15:37 |
| thafreak | i was like oops, oh yeah today is new release day | 15:37 |
| thafreak | suck it up | 15:37 |
| thafreak | whiney kids...i tell you | 15:37 |
| dzho | gotta know how to spin it . . . | 15:40 |
| dzho | "oh, boy, you're doing this on RELEASE DAY! This is *SO* exciting! You are part of HISTORY!" ;-) | 15:40 |
| yano | "just think you don't have to dist-upgrade for another 2 years!" | 15:50 |
| jrgifford | thafreak: and why weren't you on the s3 mirrors? :) | 15:57 |
| thafreak | these were throw away VM's in a computer lab... | 15:57 |
| canthus13 | thafreak: Shoulda given them a 64k leased line to work with. :) | 15:58 |
| jrgifford | and why didn't you set up a caching proxy? :p | 15:58 |
| thafreak | jrgifford: didn't think about it being release day until everyone was complaining, and then I didn't think to change mirrors | 15:58 |
| jrgifford | thafreak: fair enough | 15:59 |
| thafreak | meh, the final was a disaster anyway | 15:59 |
| thafreak | i tried to make large portions of it easy with scripts, so that we could do more things as part of the final | 15:59 |
| thafreak | but that just added complexity when things didn't work right | 16:00 |
| thafreak | all in all, i'm not at all happy with how this course turned out | 16:02 |
