theblazehen | hi inetpro | 08:07 |
TinuvaMac | Kilos: hi, definitely is, actually really like it. Battery lasts 9 hours, I still have the power of unix in the terminal, and the gui is super smooth, and I also have access to useful business apps like Office ect. | 08:12 |
TinuvaMac | but no wasnt me that want to put ubuntu on my mac | 08:12 |
TinuvaMac | osx yosemite is actually very nice | 08:12 |

TinuvaMac | i do wish i could get this lime irc chat on linux, its really nice. too bad you only get it for windows and mac | 08:14 |
TinuvaMac | hexchat will have to suffice on linux | 08:14 |
Kilos | lol hexchat works fine | 08:14 |
Kilos | i even have it here on kde | 08:14 |
Kilos | would be nicer if it could ctrl+r to underline like konversation though | 08:15 |
inetpro | TinuvaMac: how about trying quassel? | 08:15 |
TinuvaMac | didnt know about it, it looks good actually | 08:17 |
inetpro | I would try the MacOSX Monolithic Client (all-in-one, standalone client) | 08:17 |
TinuvaMac | tho i prefer the minimal look on lime | 08:17 |
theblazehen | TinuvaMac: wine? | 08:18 |

ThatGraemeGuy | uh, "to the"... | 11:31 |
Kilos | sjoe | 11:31 |
ThatGraemeGuy | yeah | 11:35 |
ThatGraemeGuy | that's the constant supply, there are a huge number of HV solar arrays all over as well, so daytime supply jumps to 2,2 million | 11:35 |
superfly | :-( | 11:54 |
superfly | I haven't had any time for minetest latetly | 11:54 |
superfly | ThatGraemeGuy: you're building nuclear reactors in your house?! | 11:55 |
ThatGraemeGuy | superfly: in my basement power station yeah :) | 12:38 |
ThatGraemeGuy | this isn't on our server, i pretty much abandoned that since nobody plays there anymore :-/ | 12:39 |

Vince-0 | hi Oom | 14:33 |
Kilos | hmm... | 14:52 |
superfly | ohi | 14:53 |
Kilos | ohi my fly | 14:54 |
Kilos | weekend | 14:54 |
Kilos | hi Wraz you still here in za? | 15:17 |
Kilos | \hi Joe_knock | 15:22 |
Kilos | i go pump water | 15:23 |
Joe_knock | Kilos: Hello. | 15:23 |
Kilos | wb nlsthzn | 15:55 |
nlsthzn | yhx | 15:56 |
nlsthzn | gnome-shell went ded on me | 15:56 |
Kilos | oi | 15:56 |
Joe_knock | eeew gnome | 16:01 |
Kilos | wb kbmonkey | 16:01 |
nlsthzn | gnome-shell 3.14 with the right extensions is awesome | 16:02 |
nlsthzn | very very very fast, looks great | 16:02 |
nlsthzn | very functional and also dies on you like most DE if you mess with Wine to much :D | 16:02 |
kbmonkey | Ta kilos :) | 16:02 |
Joe_knock | XFCE is what works on older machines (like mine) | 16:03 |
Kilos | ya actually not too bad on older machines | 16:04 |
kbmonkey | Can anyone tell me why, when I dd the ubuntu iso to usb, it won't boot? Just hangs the bios post test :( | 16:04 |
nlsthzn | perhaps bad download, bad write or something in BIOS | 16:04 |
Kilos | because the usb isnt formatted to mbr state i think | 16:04 |
kbmonkey | The MD5 is good | 16:04 |
nlsthzn | there is UEFI and legacy and all manner of shinanigans these days | 16:05 |
nlsthzn | dd writes raw image so no need to make changes to the usb | 16:05 |
Kilos | you have unity going kbmonkey | 16:05 |
kbmonkey | My pc is pre-uefi :) | 16:05 |
kbmonkey | Nope kilos. Can't install. | 16:05 |
Joe_knock | booting from USB can be a nightmare with that EUFI stuff. Burn to a disk for convenienve | 16:05 |
Joe_knock | *ce | 16:05 |
Kilos | the disk utility has the goodie in to fornat sticks to mbr then unetbootin makes a good live stick | 16:06 |
kbmonkey | I like totally forgot to bring blank dvd's back from the office :d | 16:07 |
Kilos | you know how to format stick to mbr man | 16:07 |
Kilos | didnt we do this some months ago | 16:07 |
kbmonkey | Yes I do :) and it works for every other distro fine. Strange, is all. | 16:07 |
kbmonkey | Oh well | 16:08 |
Kilos | doesnt the dd command mess up the mbr bit? | 16:08 |
kbmonkey | Nope | 16:08 |
kbmonkey | dd makes an Exact copy | 16:08 |
Kilos | try unetbootin | 16:09 |
kbmonkey | I have | 16:09 |
Kilos | oi | 16:09 |
kbmonkey | Its still writing the disk | 16:09 |
Kilos | first format stick to fat32 | 16:09 |
nlsthzn | dd is typically very good | 16:09 |
kbmonkey | I love dd | 16:10 |
kbmonkey | Could be I need a new pc ;) | 16:10 |
Kilos | lol | 16:10 |
Kilos | no man i use old pc too | 16:10 |
Kilos | format stick fat32 then use unetbootin | 16:10 |
kbmonkey | I oath, its writing to psb at 2mb/s it's going to take all night | 16:11 |
Kilos | for one iso? | 16:11 |
Kilos | should take 5 mins to make boot stick | 16:11 |
kbmonkey | I'll watch some zombies while I wait :) | 16:12 |
Kilos | lol | 16:12 |
kbmonkey | Braaaains | 16:12 |
Kilos | are you using a 486 | 16:12 |
kbmonkey | Lol | 16:13 |
Kilos | or single core p4 with 256 ram | 16:13 |
kbmonkey | It's halloween Kilos. I'm installing linux on a dead badger | 16:14 |
nlsthzn | true story | 16:14 |
Joe_knock | Are you installing ubuntu on a 128MB ram machine? | 16:14 |
Kilos | man we dont do halloween | 16:14 |
kbmonkey | http://www.strangehorizons.com/2004/20040405/badger.shtml | 16:17 |
kbmonkey | The dead does not discriminate | 16:17 |
kbmonkey | No Joe_knock I have more RAM, maybe my usb ports are haunted :) | 16:18 |
Joe_knock | The burn to USB is quite slow. You sure the stick isnt corrupt? | 16:18 |
kbmonkey | It may be Joe_knock. I use it for debian/mint/live gamers ISO's without problems. But it may be broken. I'll keep that in mind :] | 16:21 |
* kbmonkey just looking for reasons to get new hardware | 16:22 | |
Kilos | ai! | 16:22 |
kbmonkey | Similarly, copying to my extenal drive / backup is also slow. It's not just unetbootin. | 16:23 |
Joe_knock | we should take scrap hardware and build 1 massive local server with the parts. | 16:23 |
Joe_knock | What is the transfer rate? | 16:23 |
superfly | Ohi Joe_knock | 16:26 |
Joe_knock | 0_/ superfly | 16:27 |
kbmonkey | We can build skynet! | 16:27 |
Joe_knock | on 2MB ADSL | 16:28 |
Kilos | kbmonkey, if that pc is so slow it will never run 14.10 | 16:28 |
* superfly is back on his N900 for the moment | 16:28 | |
kbmonkey | The pc is decent Kilos, its just usb that is acting up | 16:31 |
Kilos | you only got the one stick? | 16:31 |
kbmonkey | I'll try others | 16:32 |
Kilos | im trying to con ian out of a 2g stick he never uses. they great for isos | 16:32 |
kbmonkey | Lol | 16:32 |
Kilos | and i think they dont make them anymore so good to collect | 16:32 |
kbmonkey | Sneaky! | 16:33 |
Kilos | ill even give him a 4g in place of it | 16:33 |
Kilos | he actually has the 4g already and keeps forgetting to return it | 16:34 |
Kilos | so good to rev him for all the 2g sticks he can find | 16:34 |
kbmonkey | Yes yes good plan | 16:36 |
Joe_knock | darn, 14.04 server is killing me. | 16:43 |
Kilos | lol | 16:43 |
Kilos | whats it doing | 16:43 |
Joe_knock | 403 errors. | 16:43 |
kbmonkey | Oh noes | 16:44 |
