[15:10] Hello, TN team. I've been off in vsphere/win world for a while now. Had to spin up the official 14.04 though. [15:13] howdy average_guy [15:14] Hi wrst. Life been good? [15:15] anybody still using ubuntu? [15:16] average_guy: I'm using debian on a vps... don't guess that counts [15:16] hehe, not really [15:17] arch on the desktop I know that doesn't count :) [15:17] I do have 14.04 installed, its really a good release, very good release actually [15:18] I agree so far, it's come a long way. They have trimmed a lot of fat [15:21] yes [15:21] they tout it as the obvious replacement for winXP but I don't think unity will run on any of the graphics hardware from that generation of computers [15:21] for modern hardware, I looks pretty slick though [15:22] it [15:22] yes it really does, and they are trimming the "spyware" out too which is good for them [15:23] yes, all the built in crap is what drove me and everyone else away [15:23] well I think more advanced users aren't especially their target either [15:24] Hey guys :) " anybody still using ubuntu?" → I do :) [15:24] hello elacheche [15:24] elacheche: :) [15:24] hello! [15:24] how are you wrst :) [15:24] good elacheche, how about yourself? [15:25] I'm ok.. Just trying to be happy and cool x) [15:25] average_guy, for old pcs there is Lubuntu, Xubuntu or puppy :) [15:26] elacheche: I don't know if Xubuntu really qualifies for lower specs, it seems a lot heavier to me than say a more bare bones distro with xfce [15:26] and I'm basing that off of a 2 year old experience so may be very wrong [15:27] I am really phasing out all of my old hardware anyway [15:28] even broke ppl get new stuff from time to time :P [15:28] ha ha :) [15:28] I have been looking at laptops here lately... [15:30] really? I think laptops are going away [15:32] saying I should buy a desktop? :) [15:32] http://shopping.hp.com/en_US/home-office/-/products/Tablets/Slate/E2P19AA?HP-Slate-21-k100-All-in-One [15:33] not very portable :) [15:33] oh, I c [15:33] kinda though, as much as a laptop [15:34] I'm a year or so away [15:34] I'm thinking something from system 76 or might even go to the dark side with a macbook [15:34] i'm going to get something quality when I get [15:34] I have nothing like that, but it's what I am currently drooling over [15:34] https://www.system76.com/laptops/model/galu1 [15:35] I have always had 15'' laptops but really like the wife's 13.3 macbook [15:35] especially with a much better resolution [15:36] I have never even seen a mac up close [15:36] that's my only thing with system76 highest resolution is 1080P, I'm thinking by the time I get ready to buy a 2K display should be the norm for them [15:36] I mean my phone is 1080P [15:36] actually my tv is only 720... [15:36] priorities in order? :) [15:36] lol [15:38] I just have never had any luck running games in linux so on a linuxbox it is not a priority for me [15:39] average_guy: steam? [15:40] oh, I play games in steam [15:40] it works [15:40] but it works WAY better in windows [15:40] they seem to be making a pretty good push for linux too [15:40] I can't keep windows working long enough for things to work :) [15:42] I run servers (that I get free) w/graphics n sound added as my desktop. I play with linux because I'm a nerd, but windows has gotten a lot better also [15:43] I use win 7 at work and its ok if you like that sort of thing ;) [15:44] That what I play games in. Well 2008r2 cuz I need dual processor support [15:45] I get the games part. just don't have time for that
