[09:08] tell the gardener to try speaking to it in different languages [09:08] you put them under the chickens skin [09:09] sjoe, you want another one to be victimized? [09:09] then let him have that one [09:09] ya but you wring its neck first man [09:09] ai! [09:10] take an ugly one you dont like [09:10] rofl [09:10] you also one of those that buys chicken from checkers [09:11] I don't have enough of my own to eat them yet [09:11] now I have even less [09:11] you never will if you dont put your friend to sleep [09:12] then post him to japan or something [09:12] can I make money with him? [09:12] not if it bites [09:12] ai! [09:13] if not you can sell him as a pet [09:13] but to someone far away or he'll be back like arnie [09:15] you at work or home inetpro ? [09:15] but when he comes back I can sell him again [09:15] luckily at home [09:16] ah you keep peeking out the window to see if hes come yet [09:16] hehe [09:17] he's nowhere to be seen this morning [09:17] but I'm trying to be on high alert [09:18] lol he knows, hide your bike [10:27] Hi everyone [10:28] Hi somaunn [10:29] HawkiesZA_, Hows life here ? [10:29] Define here? [10:35] HawkiesZA_, this channel [10:38] aha. It's generally pretty quiet. Kilos can get quite chatty though ;) [10:38] haha [10:40] Howzit going Kilos? [10:41] good ty and you HawkiesZA_ [10:42] i chatted to the fly and he said he will tell you what needs working on in the ibid greeter script [10:42] Pretty good too. Sunny skies and passing code tests [10:43] good luck [10:43] Ah, excellent. He's been sick the past couple of days, hopefully he gets better soon [10:43] eish poor man [10:48] hi Cantide [10:48] hello :) [10:48] wassup somaunn [11:43] good afternoon [11:44] lo charl [11:44] hi Kilos [11:44] how's it going [11:44] good ty and you? [11:44] i'm doing well thanks [11:45] i just saw something strange, i was looking at this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases [11:45] ubuntu 12.10 reaches EoL april 2014 [11:46] but ubuntu 13.04 reaches EoL january 2014?? [11:46] that's very strange to me [11:46] ya they shortened support time [11:46] ah i see [11:46] only LTS will get the long support [11:47] and only LTS dvds will be supplied [11:47] i think that is quite logical because cds are no longer being used much anyway [11:48] yeah, and shorter support time frees them up for other things [11:48] ya [11:48] yeah it sounds logical to me as well [11:48] those needing stability and support should only use LTS versions [11:48] those wanted to test new features can try the versions in between [11:48] was just surprised to see that 12.10 is supported until after 13.04 [11:48] * Cantide is waiting for 14.04 :) [11:49] i installed 13.04 on my laptop, but my lenovo laptop is very easy to keep up to date [11:50] what do you think of 13.04 [11:50] i've downloaded the iso, but not yet been able to run it [11:50] i still have 12.10 on my desktop at work, i actually wanted to install 12.04 but i had trouble getting it to boot [11:51] i have a dell optiplex 9010 which comes with a uefi boot manager [11:51] ah [11:52] i run vmware so i am careful of just upgrading my work machine to a newer version of the linux kernel [11:52] uefi :'( [11:53] first need to make sure it is supported, if memory serves correctly my laptop is now running 3.7 but my desktop is still running 3.5 [11:54] but as far as 13.04 is concerned, i run kubuntu and have noticed very few differences [11:54] just a general upgrade of all the software [11:54] which is nice, in some small ways [12:05] on a different note, does anyone here run an xmpp server? [12:05] a xmpp, dunno [12:08] an seems best there :p [12:08] * Cantide doesn't [12:08] yeah, i think a lot of the changes in 13.04 were in unity [12:24] Hi [12:28] hi somaunn [12:29] Hi charl [12:33] any one tested ubuntu 13.04 or kubuntu 13.04 ? [12:35] me for one [12:35] i run kubuntu 13.04 on my laptop [12:36] good [12:36] i'm sure ubuntu would be well-tested by a number of people before it is released though, what specifically did you want to know? [12:36] i'm actually runing both ubuntu & kubuntu 13.04 [12:37] oh good [12:37] you can run the two together, you just need to have both the ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop packages installed [12:37] then you can select which desktop environment you want to use when you login [12:38] most login managers have an option to select the environment [12:38] that's right [12:38] but i've actually installed ubuntu on my Desktop and kubuntu on my laptop [12:38] display managers i mean [12:39] same here, although i am still running ubuntu 12.10 on my desktop [12:42] despite the graphic card i'm using is not a pro card but things are okay [12:42] i use intel hd graphics cards on both my desktop and laptop [12:43] you don't need a fancy graphics card just to run a desktop these days [13:05] wow got jabberd2 talking across ipv6, nice [13:05] just had to uncomment a setting [14:00] ciao === Kanchi is now known as Cantide [14:47] sup [14:50] lo [14:52] squirm check this: http://valhalla.clue.be/~vort/wildlife/monkey1.jpg (scaled down to a reasonable size just for you) [14:53] took that earlier while I was feeding the cute litlte bastard [14:53] how kind of you [14:53] it loaded instantly === Trix[a]r_za is now known as Trixar_za [14:58] superfly_, Symmetria. how did you guys update your S3?
