[19:36] not to bad wrst, yourself? [19:38] doing well I have the friday countdown going [19:40] nice [19:40] netritious: anything big and exciting happening on the western front? [19:41] no. well maybe. It's a surprise. [19:41] ha ha that will keep the viewers interested [19:41] :D [21:33] Just read that wheezy is now stable. [21:48] yep stable stale depends on how you look at it :) [21:50] That means testing is unfrozen. [21:51] wheezy has been fairly stable for me for the past year in a vm, but I "reset" it a lot via system snapshots, essentially restoring it to it's last update from a clean install. :$ [21:54] I've been actually running it a while now, no issues. [21:58] no issues for me either, just I install different stuff at different times, and instead of keeping up with copies of disk images, I just do a diff on the filesystems (pre/post install/upgrade) [21:59] save the output to pendrive or netwrok share, along with any notes, scripts, and usually a copy of /etc [22:10] *installed packages diff, not file system diff, and I don't use diff until I compare the lists. [22:11] anyway, # dpkg --get-selections > `hostname`.pkg.list [22:21] wrst, I installed my ssd the other day [22:21] its bananas fast [22:21] lol [22:51] Note to self: Playing the South Park game from 1999 in Wine is not a good idea [23:01] Omnifrog: why, did it crash & kill kenny [23:01] ? [23:33] chris4585: they are great my laptop running arch on a ssd is nuts [23:41] lol cyberanger [23:41] howdy Omnifrog [23:43] it messed with the graphics settings, scrambled the desktop, resized all the windows to a lower resolution and it all resuted in the need for a ctrl-alt-F1 sudo shutdown -R now [23:46] Omnifrog: so you weren't exactly partying like 1999? [23:47] no. not at all [23:47] I did get to see kenny get killed before everything went floop [23:48] Omnifrog: maybe a windows 98 VM is in order? [23:49] too much effort for something I just wanted to look at before I box it up and send it to the garage for the next decade [23:49] Omnifrog: in that case other is always 2023 [23:51] I expect that by 2023 any modern computing device will be able to run any software for any platform ever made [23:53] hmm interesting thought [23:55] would make sense [23:56] even if only by way of VM's in the cloud
