| canthus13 | Unit193: Umm.. it's late, but have you tried supergrub? | 00:58 |
|---|---|---|
| Unit193 | While back, but that's not the issue, testdisk did some good, but I'll have to go another round with it. :/ | 00:59 |
| Unit193 | Thanks though. | 01:01 |
| * canthus13 nods. | 01:03 | |
| Unit193 | skellat: Howdy. | 01:26 |
| skellat | Unit193: Howdy. | 01:27 |
| skellat | Unit193: How goes it? | 01:27 |
| Unit193 | Getting closer to a fix, you? | 01:27 |
| Unit193 | Also, you did notice Burning Circle getting into the UWN? | 01:27 |
| skellat | When did we get in? | 01:28 |
| paultag | :D | 01:28 |
| skellat | Unless UWN stands for something else...not this week... | 01:28 |
| Unit193 | Ubuntu Weekly News, it's under the podcast section (of next week at least) | 01:29 |
| paultag | I think he knows :) | 01:29 |
| paultag | just being funny | 01:29 |
| paultag | man you've lost your sense of humor Unit193 | 01:29 |
| skellat | I hadn't looked at next week's yet... | 01:29 |
| skellat | And now I have | 01:30 |
| Unit193 | paultag: Different sense, and been up way too long. :P | 01:30 |
| paultag | bah | 01:30 |
| skellat | I don't normally have big policy ramblings that intersect with sci/tech but with the lovely spectrum debate something had to be said. | 01:31 |
| Unit193 | (Things started breaking up last night around 2, was trying to fix some things, including a fan failure. :/ ) | 01:31 |
| skellat | So, Unit193, how did your computer die? | 01:31 |
| Unit193 | Still trying to get it back, and a couple things went wrong. :P | 01:32 |
| skellat | What went wrong? | 01:32 |
| Unit193 | Fan, grub, partition table, and generally windows failing. | 01:33 |
| skellat | We've got only one Windows box left at home that works. Everything else is on either Xubuntu or Lubuntu. | 01:33 |
| Unit193 | Hah, same exact here. | 01:33 |
| Unit193 | So I'm wondering, what's your need of apt-offline? | 01:34 |
| skellat | Craptastic broadband. It is nice to have on the base disc if I set a machine up for anybody. Please remember that there are points of Ashtabula County that only got dial tone in the 1970s and others that can't get past 28.8k on dialup... | 01:36 |
| * canthus13 is considering setting up an apt proxy. | 01:36 | |
| canthus13 | 8 machines running debian or ubuntu makes it make sense. | 01:37 |
| Unit193 | Wow, quite. (To both) | 01:37 |
| skellat | Now that I figured out how to reset ubuntu-defaults-image to spit out Xubuntu images instead...that plus the metapackage here let me ensure I have tools I need in a live environment: https://launchpad.net/~skellat/+archive/elptools | 01:38 |
| skellat | The description on erielooking-settings does have the disclaimer that while it pulls in what we find useful at Erie Looking Productions...it might not do so for others... | 01:40 |
| Unit193 | Yeah, metapackage is a good way to go, I'm just doing a wget -qO- |sh deal, not as good but works. | 01:41 |
| Unit193 | Tagger has one as well, but different description. :P | 01:41 |
| skellat | Once I taught myself some rudimentary packaging...it isn't bad at all. ubuntu-defaults-builder makes it easy to get started. | 01:42 |
| skellat | SEE ALSO: https://code.launchpad.net/~skellat/elpreconfig/trunk | 01:43 |
| Unit193 | Wooohoo! I got it! Fully working no less, boots and everything! Chances of that were rather slim too. :D | 01:53 |
| Unit193 | I should just figure that out, make myself a ppa rather than pushing stuff to bzr and then recompiling everywhere. :P | 01:53 |

| skellat | Unit193: Reading documentation on Launchpad and banging on things is how I got as far as I did. | 02:03 |
| skellat | And if I forgot to mention it, I will say that Burning Circle via e-mail ends as soon as my Google account gets nuked as nuking that wipes out anything I had on FeedBurner too | 02:07 |
| skellat | This makes me glad I'm off Twitter and am sticking with Identica: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/06/21/twitter_outage_fail_whale/ | 02:09 |
| * skellat has to run away to deal with overheating issues elsewhere at home. Goodnight y'all... | 02:12 | |
| thafreak | So...anyone have any input on purchasing an ssd? | 14:46 |
| thafreak | seems all of the ones I look at have atleast some % of people on newegg saying they suck | 14:47 |
| thafreak | but all hard drives i've ever looked at have that | 14:47 |
| thafreak | i trust the oppinion of people in #ubuntu-us-oh way more than the r-tards on newegg | 14:47 |
| MaskedDriver | anybody here speak fluent or at least very good german? | 15:12 |
| paultag | MaskedDriver: Ich kann ein bisschen Deutsch sprechen | 15:12 |
| paultag | Ich hatte ein paar jare als Deutchland studiert (god, I can't spell anymore) | 15:12 |
| paultag | als ich in Deutschland war, I guess | 15:13 |
| paultag | A bit rusty | 15:13 |
| yano | Ich spreche ein bisschen Deutsch. | 15:16 |
| paultag | toll :) | 15:16 |
| yano | ah, paultag beat me to it | 15:16 |
| paultag | yano: naja, alles gut | 15:16 |
| yano | :-) | 15:16 |
| paultag | ich arbetet jezt :) | 15:16 |
| yano | took a 101 class in uni and have read a few books, and slowly participating in duolingo | 15:16 |
| paultag | erm, ich arbeite jetzt, I guess | 15:16 |
| MaskedDriver | nevermind, my buddy from deutschland came through | 15:16 |
| paultag | god, I'm not super great anymore | 15:17 |
| MaskedDriver | needed a quick translation | 15:17 |
| MaskedDriver | danke | 15:17 |
| yano | ##deutsch exists, if anyone cares | 15:17 |
| paultag | my german sucks too much to idle there | 15:18 |
| MaskedDriver | lol | 15:19 |
| yano | i've been idling there since i've been interested in deutsch, occasionally i'll glance at the buffer and read what's going on | 15:20 |
| yano | i idle in lots of channels | 15:21 |
| thafreak | hmm, just saw a spam ticket in some one's trac for web hosting...must be a quality hosting provider | 17:11 |
