| wrst | Omnifrog: that is good right? :) | 00:16 |
|---|---|---|
| Omnifrog | well, not for my back | 00:17 |
| Omnifrog | today I was clearing some woods of dead fall and preping it for the chipper shredder | 00:18 |
| Omnifrog | I got about 5 or 6 pickup truck beds worth ready | 00:19 |

| wrst | morning Omnifrog | 13:28 |
| Omnifrog | howdy wrst | 15:44 |
| Omnifrog | new laptop is here! | 15:45 |
| Omnifrog | WOO! | 15:45 |
| wrst | cool Omnifrog, what did you get? | 15:45 |
| Omnifrog | wife settled on a Samsung QX411 | 15:46 |
| wrst | that's a sweet looking laptop | 15:52 |
| Omnifrog | weird, the laptops first boot lands in a partition manager? | 16:05 |
| wrst | why would it do that? | 16:07 |
| Omnifrog | http://i.imgur.com/MWiMWTb.jpg | 16:09 |
| wrst | looks like the ubuntu installer | 16:10 |
| wrst | but that's nice feature actually if you are staying on winders | 16:11 |
| Omnifrog | what the hell is Easy Speedup Manager? and why might it need 10 minutes or more depending on my system? | 18:20 |
| Omnifrog | GOD I hate windows | 18:20 |
| wrst | Omnifrog: ??? who knows | 18:20 |
| wrst | easy speedup anything taking 10 minutes is well stupid defined isn't it? | 18:21 |
| Omnifrog | that's windows alright, click here to spend 10 minutes saving a few seconds | 18:22 |
| Omnifrog | followed by a reboot no doubt | 18:22 |
| Omnifrog | seems like optimizing the damn thing to run as fast as it can should be done already. | 18:24 |
| Omnifrog | what a retarded thing to make optional | 18:24 |
| wrst | Omnifrog: considered putting something else on it? :) | 18:29 |
| Omnifrog | yep. it will get a Linux partition after burn in | 18:30 |
| Omnifrog | either an ubuntu base or opensuse | 18:31 |
| Omnifrog | this is gonna be wifes new work machine. | 18:32 |
| Omnifrog | this speed boost thing seems to be playing with overclocking settings | 18:33 |
| wrst | yeah why in the world wouldnt' that happen before you get your hands on it? | 18:37 |
| wrst | oh well guess overclocking should be voluntary :) | 18:38 |
| Omnifrog | it doesn't tell you it's fiddling with the clock speed. after you click it a little picture of a CPU shows up with a bar that moves up and down a whole bunch | 18:41 |
| wrst | oh well | 18:54 |
| wrst | sillyness | 18:54 |
| wrst | windows 8? | 18:54 |
| Omnifrog | NOOOooooo! | 18:54 |
| Omnifrog | 7 | 18:54 |
| wrst | can't beleive you wouldn't want that new and improved interface :) | 18:55 |
| Omnifrog | lol | 18:55 |
| wrst | Omnifrog: i'm going to play the lottery just messed with grub over ssh rebooted and it all worked | 18:55 |
| Omnifrog | wheeewww! | 18:56 |
| wrst | yeah and I know that was pretty stupid to do that :) | 18:56 |
| Omnifrog | oh good, another reboot. these updates (and just getting the laptop useable) is taking forever | 18:58 |
| wrst | you really need a day just to update | 18:59 |
| wrst | I love doing a reinstall of xp... man updates... forever updates | 18:59 |
| Omnifrog | I can't believe MS still hasn't done away with the endless need to reboot | 19:00 |
| wrst | its what people know them for you can't change that :) | 19:00 |
| chris4585 | lol | 20:42 |
| wrst | hello chris4585 | 20:43 |
| chris4585 | hey wrst | 20:44 |
| wrst | chris4585: how have you been? | 20:45 |
| chris4585 | wrst, I'm alright, enjoying my days off | 20:46 |
| wrst | days off are always great | 20:46 |
| wrst | chris4585: I have ended my ubuntu expirement | 20:47 |
| chris4585 | yes, and which ubuntu experiment? | 20:47 |
| wrst | had been using it on my laptop but gnome 3.8 is unstinky enough I can go back to arch and use it | 20:48 |
| chris4585 | wrst, oh awesome | 21:21 |
| chris4585 | I haven't used 3.8 yet | 21:21 |
| chris4585 | but I imagine its good | 21:21 |
| wrst | chris4585: its much improved, they are making nautilus worse but overall with a couple of extensions i prefer it over unity | 21:22 |
| chris4585 | yeah, well cinnamon has nemo so woot | 21:23 |
| wrst | i may use nemo with gnome-shell actually chris4585 | 21:27 |
| chris4585 | its worth it | 21:30 |
| Pinky | looing for help updating virtualbox .. .. . ??? | 22:09 |
| Unit193 | But doesn't know if he's on fedora or not.... | 22:26 |
| wrst | fedora.... | 22:56 |
| wrst | chris4585: i have an extension that makes the gnome dock work like a dock instead of all that activities stuff and I really like | 23:09 |
| wrst | and in 3.8 you now have the classic mode that isn't bad either | 23:09 |
| Unit193 | wrst: He wasn't. | 23:09 |
| wrst | ha ha Unit193 fedora people still use that? | 23:10 |
| wrst | I tried last release, the installer was bad, made arch look good to install :) | 23:10 |
| chris4585 | wrst, sounds nice | 23:14 |
| wrst | works pretty nicely chris4585 | 23:14 |
| wrst | other than the kernel/graphics/gnome-shell issues but that's the price of being an ealry adopter, unlike ubuntu deciding i didn't need sound any more | 23:15 |
| wrst | that was supposed to be stable! | 23:15 |
| chris4585 | lol | 23:15 |
| chris4585 | I'm happy on manjaro still | 23:15 |
| wrst | it has arch goodness so its all good ;) | 23:16 |
| chris4585 | basically | 23:16 |
| Unit193 | Raring isn't great with depends, not long until their new "Mir" will depend on Unity... | 23:17 |
| wrst | Unit193: yeah I think Ubuntu may do well but I prefer to stay with something proven for a while and wait and see | 23:17 |
| Unit193 | wrst: I'm saying, Xubuntu is pulling in some uneeded packages because the depends are silly. | 23:19 |
| wrst | Unit193: yeah when you going to debian? ;) | 23:19 |
| Unit193 | Hopefully it'll be a little, I like the Xubuntu community and setup. | 23:20 |
| Unit193 | (Ubuntu also cares closer to what I do whether something is open source or not.) | 23:20 |
