[03:15] <yano> Unit193: looked like it stopped sometime yesterday
[03:15] <yano> that's been fixed
[03:16] <Unit193> Danke, figured.
[03:26] <yano> yup :-)
[19:28] <TrenchClone> hhmm
[19:30] <Unit193> Howdy.
[19:31] <TrenchClone> Hello
[19:32] <Unit193> Bye.
[19:32] <yano> lol
[19:32] <Unit193> Seems I can run people off by just greeting them.
[19:38] <yano> lol
[19:38] <yano> don't greet MarkDude, Unit193 :-P
[19:38] <yano> MarkDude: hi
[19:38] <Unit193> OK.
[19:38] <paultag> (both run away)
[19:39] <yano> lol
[19:39] <MarkDude> Hello yano
[19:39] <yano> woot
[19:39] <yano> we didn't scare them off
[19:39] <yano> MarkDude: how are you doing?
[19:39] <MarkDude> Ubuntu Ohio- one of the channels I can use *grownup words*
[19:40]  * MarkDude has been scolded for using such words
[19:40] <MarkDude> :D
[19:41] <MarkDude> Another day in paradise- (Im in Nor Cal
[19:42] <yano> lol
[19:44] <MarkDude> Ubuntu Cali is such a dead channel recently.
[19:46] <MarkDude> Anyone here using Raspberry Pi?
[19:47] <paultag> jawohl
[19:47]  * MarkDude is on a mission with it to teach arm to folks- as well as love of tech
[19:50]  * MarkDude is also curious if folks here are doing Ubuntu Hours?
[19:52] <Unit193> I've thought about it, but don't think it's powerful enough for what I'd want. :P
[20:18] <MarkDude> True
[20:19] <MarkDude> The later small arm devices are better suited- The Pi lacks uptime of months in most cases
[20:19] <MarkDude> For teaching kids that Python does awesome things for Minecraft- its perfect and affordable
[20:20] <MarkDude> A few weeks ago- my nephew was amazed at what Python did - and to be honest - was more impressed than with ANYTHING I have ever done ever
[20:21] <MarkDude> http://www.uncuartotech.com/ is in SF, they are teaching classes with Makey Makey and other methods to get kids interested in tech
[20:21] <jenni> [ 14 TECH - Home ] - https://j.mp/141RDIx
[20:33] <Unit193> Ouch, "python" and "awesome" in the same sentance.
[20:38] <MarkDude> Well yes- as well as very impressed nephew. I was able to hear him bragging about this to his cousin no less
[20:40] <MarkDude> http://www.stuffaboutcode.com/2013/02/raspberry-pi-minecraft-analogue-clock.html
[20:40] <jenni> [ <Stuff about="code" />: Raspberry Pi - Minecraft - Analogue Clock ] - https://j.mp/141UnFI
[20:41] <Unit193> Basically, I want something that I can put atop the router and have it always running. :P   I'm not really huge on MineCraft, but my cousin does it.
[20:41] <Unit193> (Two, at least.)
[20:43] <MarkDude> Beagle Board Black looks like it MAY fit that need Unit193
[20:44] <MarkDude> More tests will be done- should be able to know for sure by next month IMHO
[21:07]  * thafreak has 3 raspberry pi's...thinking about getting a beagle bone black too...
[21:08] <thafreak> one sits  next to the router, and keeps my irssi running, along with having ansible and git, tmux, vim, etc on it for a devops play ground
[21:09] <thafreak> another sits on my desk with an actual monitor connected to it for always on simple desktop...
[21:09] <thafreak> mostly where I run terms to ssh into the other one :)
[21:10] <thafreak> and the third is in a box now...it was running xbmc on the tv in the living room, but we moved the tv, and I haven't put it back
[21:10] <thafreak> but I bet the beagle bone would make a much better always on desktop
[21:11] <thafreak> you know, for when the "oh sh*t, a server's down, i need to ssh somewhere to see what's up" moments happen...
[21:13] <MarkDude> Its PERFECT for ssh quick
[21:13] <MarkDude> Also retro gaming, even a fair amount of pentesting fun
[21:13] <thafreak> yeah, i heard they ported backtrack to it
[21:13] <thafreak> er, made an sd card image...
[21:14] <thafreak> don't think anything needed ported really...
[21:21] <MarkDude> http://resources.infosecinstitute.com/pentesting-distributions-and-installer-kits-for-your-raspberry-pi/
[21:21] <jenni> [ Pentesting Distributions and Installer Kits for your Raspberry Pi ] - https://j.mp/1420DNK
[21:22] <MarkDude> Nice list- they use it at local ITT Tech school - they have pwned some staff there - that used to say the Pi was useless
[21:22] <MarkDude> You just got hacked by useless hardware, has your opinion changed? The instructors there are great, and have some great humor
[21:26] <Unit193> thafreak: BackTrack is Kali now.  Backbox looks interesting, but pretty sure doesn't have the features of BackTrack.
[21:27] <MarkDude> Kali looks awesome- I downloaded it but have not tried it yet
[21:27] <Unit193> Gnome, so meh.
[21:27] <MarkDude> Well
[21:27] <MarkDude> I agree there
[21:28]  * MarkDude has been chastised within Fedora Project for talking about how much Gnome sucks
[21:28] <MarkDude> Lots and lots
[21:28] <Unit193> Hah, thought you were one that liked it, personally I'd take Xfce, fluxbox or openbox.
[21:28] <Unit193> MarkDude: Good for you.
[21:28] <MarkDude> Well I can use anything if need be for testing and fun
[21:28]  * MarkDude 's favorite Linux is Puppy
[21:29] <MarkDude> Openbox ftw
[21:29] <MarkDude> Kde is decent, and most of my time is now there- MATE has minimal suckage too
[21:30] <MarkDude> XFCE is STILL this: constant questions from friends of "where did my startbar go?"
[21:30] <MarkDude> I can see the desktop- but only have right click
[21:31]  * MarkDude has always assumed the disappearing desktop was a feature XD
[21:32] <Unit193> Not happened to me, or at least I have no idea what you're talking about.
[21:32] <Unit193> It being Fedora, guessing it's up to date.
[21:37] <Unit193> KDE is a bit heavy, but not bad.  Gnome just really isn't my thing. ;P
[21:38] <MarkDude> Agreed
[21:39] <MarkDude> And most of my XFCE has been done with Ubuntu- Mint
[21:40] <MarkDude> Altho- I have seen it on Fedora too- the desktop leaves- the best way to shut it down is open a terminal (with hotkeys) and sudo poweroff
[21:40] <MarkDude> Deal breaker for giving to new users
[21:40] <Unit193> Weird...
[21:40] <MarkDude> right click always works in Puppy options
[21:40] <MarkDude> Mostly happens with funky drivers on laptops
[21:41] <MarkDude> have never seen it on desktop
[21:41] <Unit193> I have my graphics crap out on me, but netbook takes Xfce well. :P
[21:41] <MarkDude> XFCE is not bad, just failed in most my tests.
[21:42] <MarkDude> Puppy for the win
[21:42] <Unit193> AntiX.
[21:43] <MarkDude> TIL- apt is supported for Fedora http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Tools/Apt
