canthus13dzho: The knee isn't a ball joint.19:27
canthus13It's a hinge.19:27
canthus13shoulders are ball joints. hips are ball joints.19:28
dzhocanthus13: but cars have ball joints19:30
dzhohinge joints too, I suppose, but one usually just says "hinge"19:31
dzhoI guess what I was thinking is "knees and ball joins are both joints"19:31
canthus13ah.19:33
jrgiffordWe got hit the same night in Indiana.22:30
jrgiffordYay weather. Thankfully the tornado that formed was on the other end of the county22:30
thafreak so, anyone giving 13.04 a shot?22:57
* Unit193 is already on it, not sure if he wishes he wasn't.22:58
thafreaki decided to give vanilla 13.04 desktop a shot...22:58
thafreakwhich version/"flavor"?22:58
Unit193Xubuntu mainly, one Lubuntu.22:59
Unit193Some things are fixed, some are horribly broken.23:01
Unit193But you should be good.23:01
thafreaki grabbed xubuntu too...have one kid using it23:05
thafreakthought i'd give unity another shot23:05
Unit193I'd give it buckshot...23:07
thafreaklol, really?23:11
thafreakhave you tried it as of 13.04?23:11
Unit193I haven't tried it as of 12.04.23:12
thafreakit does perform a bit better...23:12
thafreakbut only with proprietary nvidia drivers23:12
thafreakwhen i was using noveau, it was kinda slow to do any of the animations23:12
Unit193It'd crash and burn on this computer, the other computer I don't really use (the others do) should be able to handle it, but I as much of an intention to put Unity on it as I do Windows 8.23:13
thafreakmeh, I'll probably end up with xubuntu, but i wanted to see how it's changed23:13
thafreakha23:13
Unit193Oh sure, you're free to use it. :P23:13
Unit193It'd annoy me only a little less, I like "classic" desktops.  I never liked Gnome anyway.23:14
thafreaki *do* hate their software center though...gah...it's crap, half the time doesn't seem to even work for me23:14
thafreakah, well this machine i just re-installed had kubuntu on it...and i was getting sick of kde23:15
Unit193Software Center?  I just found out this morning the icon is purple, I'm very, very fast to purge that thing.23:15
Unit193Upgrade purge list: http://paste.openstack.org/show/QMHMpdXVSB22GQ2B5L0623:15
thafreakor whatever it's called23:15

thafreakwell, I only opened it up cause I wanted to try installing steam23:16
thafreakand I couldn't install it with apt-get apparently23:16
thafreakso on xubuntu, does it do things like mounting media under /media/username/diskname?23:17
Unit193Yes.23:18
thafreakinteresting...there's little things like that that stand out to me...not that i care one way or the other23:19
thafreakjust things I notice23:19
thafreaki could see how that could be useful for machines with multiple users logging into it at the same time23:19
* Unit193 uses terminal a lot... But only have 4 open now (all of which are running screen.)23:19
Unit193Kernel wouldn't hold a longer uptime than 2 days for me, and graphics really took a dump down the drain for me, which also screws up flash.23:20
thafreakreally? your box is that unstable?23:21
thafreakthat sucks23:22
thafreakwell, 12.04, for being a "LTS", was never as stable as I expected it should be23:22
Unit193Flash worked, graphics worked better and kernel worked better in Quantal.  I compiled my own kernel and it's fine now.23:22
thafreakhaha23:22
thafreakman, I haven't done that in years...23:22
Unit193Flash and graphics stinks, but kernel can hold an uptime.  Liquorix also works, but not stock Ubuntu kernels.23:23
thafreakprobably the last time was when I had a new 3ware card that wasn't supported by the debian installer :/23:23
thafreakwell, gotta go pick up pizza...23:24
thafreakbbl23:24
Unit193Sweet, good choice.23:24
Unit193Just means I get a Linux Sigma 3.9.5-u193 uname. :D23:25
Unit193Hmmmm.... .6 is out, and liquorix -6 is already installed.23:25
skellatSo far Xubuntu 13.04 hasn't exploded on my netbook.  The BeagleBoard stays at Xubuntu 12.04 for the moment.  The RPi stays on Raspbian CURRENT for the moment.23:27
Unit193(Note, I do have some custom packages, but nothing that would cause issues like what I'm having, and they were added after.)23:28
Unit193Netbook seems to like 13.04 just fine.23:28
