| popey | something tells me that steam are using ubuntu as a stepping stone to steam on the TV | 10:40 |
| popey | and getting steam on ubuntu is a way to convince game devs that they should port to linux.. because we have a wide install base | 10:40 |
| popey | which they can then flip the switch and say "ok, now we're focussed on TV" and use steam on linux on tv | 10:40 |
| jussi | popey: hrm, and whats your job title again? :D | 10:41 |
| popey | "that bloke" | 10:41 |
| jussi | lol | 10:41 |
| jussi | "that bloke who quit minecraft" | 10:42 |
| popey | nah, not quit, resting | 10:42 |
| jussi | I, thankfully, have not been sucked into the silly timewaster :) | 10:44 |

| Jordan_U | What are the advantages of Ubuntu sticking with Upstart rather than moving to SystemD? | 20:33 |
| topyli | no idea, but at least it's preventing us from having a GDM later than 3.0 :( | 20:52 |
| topyli | anyway, we should probably coerce debian to adopt systemd first anyway, and coercing them is not a trivial task | 20:53 |
| topyli | well, changing init systems is not easy in a project like debian anyway | 20:54 |
| topyli | i seem to say 'anyway' a lot tonight | 20:54 |
| Jordan_U | topyli: SystemD is in Testing, though I don't know how well it actually works yet. | 21:06 |
| topyli | yeah i had sid on my desktop box not long ago, it had systemd packages. didn't have the guts to try it | 21:07 |
| Jordan_U | I should try it myself one of these days. | 21:09 |
| topyli | i could put sid on that box again as well | 21:12 |
| topyli | or testing, it's not as bad as it was 6-7 years ago | 21:13 |
| topyli | in any case, you're not likely going to get an installation option like "which init system would you like to use?" :) | 21:15 |
| topyli | and it might not be fun to change after the fact. i don't know though, just scares me somehow | 21:15 |
