[14:24] hmm that's quite the opposite problem [14:24] for long distance i have glasses because i am near-sighted [14:24] but unless i am driving i don't wear them [14:25] ah i use here on the pc and stronger ones for reading books [14:25] actually quite a nice pair of glasses, they have the sun-protection layer as well so they double as sun glasses [14:25] thats nice [14:25] ah i see, no i'm fortunate in that i don't have to wear them for computer or books [14:26] haha and with choqok not being able to size fonts i need pc glasses to type and reading to follow choqok [14:27] ah i see, never used choqok [14:27] looks nice though, pity about the lack of font resizingt [14:27] that should become standard in all applications [14:27] its actually quite a nice twitter tool apart from not working as it should in gnome [14:28] better than gtwitter [14:28] imho [14:28] gtwitter sucks imho [14:28] or was that another tool i am thinking about....

[18:49] <Kilos> maybe when he has time the fly can tell us [18:49] <Kilos> most noobs go there for help in the beginning [18:51] <magespawn> I think they should come here, more interactive and personal. [18:51] <Banlam> i only joined the list on thursday [18:51] <Banlam> i can't remember why i joined here [18:52] <Kilos> Banlam, its mainly for guys like me that cant help themselves i think [18:52] <Banlam> the channel? [18:52] <Kilos> we have been trying for months to get them here [18:52] <Kilos> no the lists [18:53] <Kilos> when you first install ubuntu if you doff you go lists for help [18:55] * sflr went to google for help [18:55] * Banlam bothered friends [18:55] <Kilos> i hate google [18:56] <Kilos> i used lists for a week or 2 then the fly i think explained to me how to get here [18:56] <superfly> sflr: I despise WordPress - I was writing my own blog engine in Python [18:56] <Kilos> dont forget i was a mechanic farmer [18:56] <Banlam> and then what happened? [18:57] <Kilos> then i crashed [18:57] <Kilos> bust head open and visited the pearly gates [18:57] <Kilos> hehe [18:58] <Kilos> DOA means nothing if the big boss is on your side [19:03] <Kilos> here is my opinion of geeks [19:03] <Kilos> http://slexy.org/view/s21IMHuRkY [19:08] <magespawn> Lol @ Kilos [19:08] <Kilos> superfly, will you ever finish it? [19:09] <magespawn> superfly do you know who hosts the ubuntu-za mailing list? [19:09] <Kilos> Banlam, i did have friends in the IT or even pc world [19:09] <Kilos> didnt [19:09] <superfly> Kilos: I don't know... maybe if I have some holiday, and I get a bee in my bonnet [19:10] <inetpro> Kilos: that was very well written and worth reading again [19:10] <superfly> magespawn: Canonical [19:10] <Kilos> wasty inetpro [19:10] <Kilos> oops [19:10] <Kilos> ty [19:10] <Kilos> dunno what was was for [19:10] <inetpro> :-) [19:11] <Kilos> if i member right i just gave some vague ideas and the fly wrote it for me [19:11] <inetpro> ok, /me is going offline for a few minutes to install Kubuntu 12.04 on this device of mine [19:11] <magespawn> Ahhh. Could you host it over a dsl connection if the list was small? Say 10 - 12 ppl? [19:11] * inetpro bbl [19:11] <Kilos> good luck inetpro [19:12] <superfly> magespawn: you *could* [19:13] <superfly> magespawn: practically, a number of web hosts already have mailing lists, and getting a VPS is pretty cheap these days [19:13] <magespawn> What is pretty cheap? [19:13] <tumbleweed> serving e-mail from DSL is a pretty bad idea. Many mailservers block e-mail from dynamic IP ranges [19:14] <Kilos> evening tumbleweed [19:14] <magespawn> Let me explain whay I need it. [19:15] <tumbleweed> evening (waving from a heathrow depature lounge, after an extended post-UDS european jaunt) [19:15] <tumbleweed> magespawn: pretty cheap = ~ $10 / month [19:15] <magespawn> I am seceretary of my kids school SGB, and co-ordinating the meetings is getting to take up too much time, just mailing ppl [19:16] <magespawn> Thats about 80-100 rand. [19:16] <magespawn> Can gmail do it? [19:16] <nuvolari> magespawn: google-groups [19:17] <magespawn> R1200-00 tand a year or so. [19:17] <magespawn> Rand [19:18] <magespawn> Mm there is an idea, I set up a google site for the school, so I should be able to add it to that. [19:18] <tumbleweed> yup, google groups is the easy answer here [19:18] <magespawn> Ty guys,just needed another mind, point of view. Should have thought of that ages ago. [19:19] <Banlam> magespawn, what exactly do you need? [19:19] <Banlam> just a mailing list server? [19:20] <magespawn> Yup [19:21] <Banlam> surely there are free services [19:21] <magespawn> Something so that when one person suggests a change, I do not have forward the mail. [19:21] <nuvolari> Banlam: *cough* google groups again :P [19:21] <Kilos> lol [19:21] <Banlam> :P [19:21] <magespawn> Lol [19:21] <tumbleweed> magespawn: I bet they'll still mail you directly [19:22] <magespawn> Maybe would have to get them used to idea of the list. [19:22] <Kilos> tumbleweed, will you be able to make tomorrow nights meeting? [19:23] <magespawn> People programming is harder than computer programming. [19:23] <tumbleweed> Kilos: I intend to [19:23] <Kilos> impossible to program some peeps [19:23] <Kilos> yay [19:24] <Banlam> just send an email back to the people, that looks like it's been bounced by a server saying to forward emails to XYZ address [19:24] * tumbleweed wanders off to board [19:24] <Kilos> fly safe tumbleweed [19:26] <magespawn> I have a paid for address that I have been trying to get people to stop using for 5 years now. [19:26] <Kilos> lol [19:27] <Kilos> put an auto forward into it and close it [19:28] <Kilos> or close it and they can get unable to deliver mails back [19:28] <Kilos> then they will fone you [19:29] <magespawn> They already have my other one, and still every now and then they use the old one. [19:29] <cocooncrash> Kilos, superfly: superfly and drubin can grant permissions [19:30] <superfly> ah, ok [19:30] <Kilos> ty cocooncrash will try remember that [19:30] <superfly> ta cocooncrash [19:30] <Kilos> drubin is kinda missing in action lately [19:33] <Kilos> hey magespawn you can use gc for school meetings [19:33] <magespawn> Kilos that was the idea butnher connection is only dsl [19:34] <Kilos> dsl? [19:34] <magespawn> Sorry ADSL [19:34] <Kilos> so thats fast enough [19:34] <Kilos> its only text [19:35] <Kilos> or you want videos too [19:35] <magespawn> We generally all live close by, so no need to do a telly meeting. [19:35] <Kilos> lol [19:36] <Kilos> as long as you get tea/coffee and cookies thats good [19:41] <magespawn> We do. [19:41] <Kilos> lol [19:42] <sflr> magespawn, if it is for a school you can try Google Apps for Education http://www.google.com/apps/intl/en/edu/ [19:46] * inetpro is back though not optimal yet... lot's of updating and configuration to do [19:48] <inetpro> but I feel right at home already [19:48] <Kilos> yay inetpro [19:50] <magespawn> sflr already have the free google apps set up for, just did not know I could set up a mailing list with it [19:50] <magespawn> Will move to that one if the situation warrants it. [19:50] <inetpro> tumbleweed: good to see you online again, you back? [19:51] <inetpro> cocooncrash: ahh, and even cocooncrash? [19:52] <sflr> yes, that will work magespawn. http://www.google.com/apps/intl/en/edu/groups.html [19:53] <inetpro> ahh, the tumbling tumbleweed is at the airport [19:53] <Kilos> hehe [19:54] <inetpro> magespawn: google groups is the answer [20:18] <Kilos> night all of you guys. sleep tight [20:18] <Kilos> see you's tomorrow [20:19] <Kilos> Maaz, night [20:19] <Maaz> Kilos: Bye [20:19] <sflr> bye Kilos! [20:20] <magespawn> I am also out of here, thanks for the help and advice, night all. [20:45] <inetpro> superfly: what's that package that tumbleweed suggested again in stead of the propriatary nvidia drivers? [20:45] <superfly> nouveau [20:45] <inetpro> ahh [20:45] <inetpro> thanks [20:48] <charl> nn all
