[17:33] woot! in ubuntu on the air with wifi working [17:33] * rick_h restarts to make sure osx still works [17:34] awesome! how did it set it up? via grub? [17:34] still very much frozen :) [17:34] refitn [17:34] that and usb-creator'd the mac iso [17:35] im right on the shore [17:35] the lake is still completely frozen [17:35] nice Azeban [17:35] oh I'm sure it will be for a bit [17:35] this week there's highs like '14' around here [17:35] refitn? is that a "refind" typo? [17:35] as is the kalamazoo river [17:35] imagine the wind blowing over that lake is cold [17:35] waf: so there was refit boot loader manager [17:35] somone took it up and made it refitn [17:35] (n = next ?) [17:35] we also have around 3000 lf of the frontage of the kalamazoo river [17:36] and you're sure you don't mean refind? [17:36] * waf googles [17:36] its still completely frozen [17:36] :) [17:36] waf: oh... umm yea that [17:36] http://www.rodsbooks.com/refind/ [17:37] yeah, ok, cool. that's what i use [17:37] i really should toss that guy some money. amazing documentation [17:38] ooh, you can make the launcher smaller than 32 in trusty now [17:40] man it's so nice to be back in linux land [17:44] rick_h_ you can? that's 14.04, right? [17:44] gamerchick02: yea, let me take it down to 16 [17:45] sweetness [17:45] 32 is a good size tho [17:45] the size it is after install is MEGA huge [17:45] always too big still imo [17:45] i'm like geez [17:45] depends on the size of your monitor! [17:46] like if i were to install ubuntu to my macbook(!) i'd want a smaller launcher. [17:47] sweet, time to copy over my Makefile and start the "make install install-python" process :) [17:48] man, sitting this thing side by side with my 230 it really is a lot smaller [17:48] but damn the x230 has such a nicer keyboard [17:48] real feedback, so much softer on the mac [17:53] nice [17:54] which mac do you have? [17:54] air [17:54] derp [17:54] i should read more === sharp1 is now known as akelling [17:55] this makes me said http://arstechnica.com/business/2014/02/netflix-is-paying-comcast-for-direct-connection-to-network-wsj-reports/ [17:55] rick_h: wait, why'd you get the air if you're install Ubuntu on it? [17:55] I guess it's how network operations [17:55] greg-g: dual booting. Need osx to QA mac stuff works [17:55] gotcha [17:55] I was worried [17:55] greg-g: but want to try it out as an ubuntu platform as well. I'm losing faith in lenovo [17:56] ... [17:56] im very pleased with my macbook [17:56] since I have to have an OSX machine I got a refurb air to try out. [17:56] its a pleasure to use. [17:56] if I don't like it, well it's just for QA [17:56] if I do...then Nov is my 3yr laptop refresh with Canonical so... [17:57] greg-g: I'm a bit bummed with the x240 changes, the lack of a decent carbon. I will look at the xps13 DE but not a dell fan and makes me nervous [17:57] I have a 2.3ghz qud i7 [17:58] xps is junk [17:58] and it has 16gb of 16000mhz memory [17:58] greg-g: yea, I know you had issues with it and there are a couple of co-workers that like it [17:58] but not sure they know better [17:58] :) [17:58] if you like the air you'll like the xps ;) [17:58] xps: more plasticy version of the air [17:58] well, already bummed on the keyboard. Trackpad :( but the x240 got rid of the buttons [17:58] and 2gb gddr5 memory [17:59] and the geforce gt 750M [17:59] greg-g: the display seems nice, that's the biggest gripe with my 230 [17:59] i love my Air. [17:59] and the display is really nice [17:59] I'm so mad they only made the HD screen on the 240 for touch [17:59] yes [17:59] the retina display is great [17:59] oh, didn't realize re hd and touch [17:59] bah [17:59] i dont know if the air and the pro have the same display [17:59] * greg-g is a curmuddgeon [17:59] greg-g: yea, that and that HD finally came out 5mo after the 240... [18:00] question: has anyone modded an HP11 chromebook for a larger SSD, more RAM, and Ubuntu? [18:00] so yea, I'll be that annoying guy trying to try out everyone's laptops this year [18:00] lol rick_h_ [18:00] gamerchick02: check with brousch when he's around. He's the chromebook guy in the group [18:01] danke [18:01] i don't even know if i can get the darn thing open [18:01] no screws [18:02] heh [18:02] because an ubuntu portable box would be nice [18:02] and it was cheap so yeah. [18:05] i think mrgoodcat also runs a chromebook [18:05] oh yea, true [18:07] sweet [18:07] thanks [18:12] what do you guys think of the AppleCare plan? [18:14] i don't have it on either of my devices [18:14] i have the 11" Air and an ipod touch [18:14] no issues so far and no applecare [18:15] i still need to take my air in for it's hard drive swap because of the recall [18:53] afternoon [18:55] afternoon cmaloney [18:55] how's it going? [18:55] Going OK. I think I have a cold. [18:56] Took some allergy medicine and it seems to be ineffective [18:57] ugh [18:57] i'm actually feeling human again [18:57] i didn't WAKE UP til 9:45 this morning. (i'm a morning person so this is news) [21:13] hah, google for things and find questions from jrwren [21:36] hah [22:48] Call for Talks for Penguicon is coming to a close soon.
