| jea | nice to see that ubuntu is being used in a channel 9 news story | 08:12 |
|---|---|---|
| jea | sagaci: there is a new chat client in thunderbird 15 that supports irc | 08:21 |
| jea | looks alright in my very brief use of it | 08:21 |
| sagaci | ah ok haven't used thunderbird for a while | 08:21 |
| sagaci | I've only really used xchat/irssi on ubuntu | 08:22 |
| jea | are you using chatzilla in firefox? | 08:22 |
| sagaci | chatzilla standalone | 08:22 |
| jea | irssi is actually quite good | 08:22 |
| jea | right | 08:22 |
| sagaci | chatzilla only for windows | 08:22 |
| jea | i haven't ever looked at chatzilla | 08:23 |
| sagaci | I don't rely on irc in windows so as long as it looks OK and works flawlessly | 08:24 |
| jea | windows irc clients seem to be a bit like that | 08:25 |
| sagaci | the beta due on thursday | 08:28 |
| jea | beta for quantal? i didn't realise it was so soon | 08:28 |
| jea | I must get translating if that is the case | 08:29 |
| sagaci | yeah, well final is 18th Oct | 08:32 |
| jea | ok. when do the translation packs need to be done? | 08:32 |
| sagaci | early october, I think | 08:34 |
| jea | ok. still a few weeks then | 08:35 |
| sagaci | busy time @ uni? | 08:35 |

| head_victim | jea: Ubuntu was on channel 9? | 13:15 |
| jea | head_victim: yes, very briefly in a story about wifi security | 13:16 |
| jea | the 'hacker' was using it to connect to WEP routers | 13:16 |
| head_victim | Oh so it was framed in a negative, lets use this to do bad things, instead of a positive, this is a secure way of achieving things. | 13:17 |
| jea | Well they didn't actually mention Ubuntu by name - you just saw it briefly when they showed the person connecting to another network | 13:17 |
| jea | The story was trying to convince people to change their wifi security to WPA2 instead of WEP | 13:18 |
| head_victim | Ah well that's fair enough. Nothing's perfect, but making it harder is always preferred. | 13:18 |
| jea | Hopefully it actually helps to make people realise they should improve their security | 13:21 |
| head_victim | Fingers crossed, and on that note, I peered at the clock and nearly fell of my chair. I think it's time for bed, cheerio | 13:23 |
| jea | yep, definitely time for bed | 13:24 |
| jea | see you later | 13:24 |
