[10:17] <blahdeblah> head_victim: Re: LTSes - i've definitely been happy with that approach. My ThinkPad has not changed distros since i got it, and having it stable is a priority for me.
[10:17] <blahdeblah> As it got towards the end of the LTS cycle, i was glad it was time to upgrade, though.  Mostly because of more recent LibreOffice versions.
[10:18] <md_5> Ubuntu is actually really stable
[10:18] <md_5> I'm currently on betas and havent had game breaking issues
[10:19] <head_victim> My main reason last time was that Unity really wasn't ready in my opinion until 12.04
[10:19] <md_5> agreed
[10:25] <head_victim> That and I kept not finding time to do each upgrade (I always allow time to fix minor breakages, even if I don't end up needing it). 
[10:25] <head_victim> blahdeblah: how's your study going? 
[10:25] <head_victim> md_5: yeah I played with 12.04 in virtualbox from the day 11.10 was released, was pretty damn good stability wise
[10:26] <md_5> virtualbox isnt a fair representation
[10:26] <md_5> (in my experience)
[10:26] <md_5> Once I made the switch to Ubuntu 24/7 back in uh april or so I have been really happy
[10:26] <head_victim> Ah k, did enough for me to realise it was okay though :) I played with the dual screens until that was right, etc.
[10:48] <blahdeblah> md_5: By "stable", i don't mean not crashing. I mean not changing unnecessarily.
[10:48] <blahdeblah> head_victim: Yeah - pretty good.  Had a break the last couple of weeks.
[10:48] <blahdeblah> Need to get back into it this week.
[11:06] <head_victim> blahdeblah: I'm just glad to get my brain working again. I'm learning all new levels of procrastination though :/
