| xTEMPLARx | telnet, eh? | 15:05 |
| xTEMPLARx | manually encrypt everything and copy/paste? | 15:05 |
| Unit193 | xTEMPLARx: Double rot13 all the way! | 19:00 |
| bwmaker | Afternoon. | 19:49 |
| Unit193 | Howdy. | 19:51 |
| bwmaker | How's it going? | 20:05 |
| bwmaker | This room seems quiet. :) | 20:05 |
| Unit193 | It is a bit, but people chat every so often. | 20:07 |
| Unit193 | Not too shabby, got a nice cup o' coffee. | 20:07 |
| bwmaker | I haven't been around in a while. My old nick was fastforward. I've been running IRC lately and thought I'd pop back in. | 20:28 |
| Unit193 | Oh hey, I remember that nick, sort of! | 20:28 |
| bwmaker | :) I wasn't around very often. | 20:31 |
| Unit193 | Well I have a terrible memory to boot. wrst will show up sometime I'm sure. | 20:31 |
| Unit193 | So, what're ye running nowdays? | 20:31 |
| wrst | hey bwmaker | 20:32 |
| wrst | Unit193: your wish is my command :) | 20:33 |
| Unit193 | Figured it was a person, you like talking to people! :P | 20:33 |
| wrst | ha ha | 20:33 |
| wrst | don't know if I really like talking with people | 20:33 |
| wrst | maybe more than you Unit193? | 20:33 |
| Unit193 | Hey! I already saw and was social this week, what more did you want?! | 20:34 |
| Unit193 | :P | 20:34 |
| bwmaker | I'm using Ubuntu MATE 14.04 today. | 20:34 |
| wrst | Unit193: good job | 20:35 |
| wrst | bwmaker: I hear that is an excellent distro | 20:35 |
| Unit193 | It'll be official with Vivid. | 20:36 |
| wrst | yes | 20:36 |
| wrst | sounds like it will be what xubuntu used to be | 20:36 |
| * wrst ducks from Unit193's punch after that | 20:36 | |
| Unit193 | Ugly and hardly usable? :----D | 20:37 |
| bwmaker | I like it, for the most part. My home desktop is running Mint 17.1. I wanted to stop distro hopping on it and leave it alone. Mint runs great on it. I've got the XPS 13 Sputnik laptop, so I wanted to be as close to Ubuntu as possible. I know they're not entirely different, but just felt better about it being Ubuntu. | 20:37 |
| wrst | stop distro hopping? why would anyone want to do that? :) | 20:44 |
| Unit193 | Because it's so much effort to correct everything the distro does wrong! :P | 20:45 |
| wrst | exactly Unit193 that's why I run arch :P | 20:45 |
| Unit193 | It'd take too long to setup correctly. :P | 20:46 |
| wrst | Unit193: by the time you get all the stuff stripped I can have my ideal setup done | 20:47 |
| wrst | and I don't have to redo it every 6 months | 20:47 |
| wrst | unless I get bored with it like I did a few weeks ago and start from new for the fun of it | 20:47 |
| Unit193 | I don't have to redo it, and I haven't reinstalled for a while except in VM. You know you can install a minimal set right? That was one of my contributions to Xubuntu. ;) | 20:48 |
| wrst | I have done the web install | 20:48 |
| wrst | but then a meta package generally pulls int all sorts of junk I don't want | 20:49 |
| bwmaker | The every months thing is why I switched to Mint 17, it's all based on 14.04 and new packages, updates, etc will get back ported until 16.04. No upgrading! :) | 20:49 |
| xTEMPLARx | oh the day I get crazy busy at work, this place explodes in conversation | 21:09 |
| xTEMPLARx | I see how it is | 21:09 |
| Unit193 | :D | 21:11 |
| Unit193 | xTEMPLARx: Come on! Join in on the distro conversation! Then we move on to editors, and browsers next! ;) | 21:11 |
| bwmaker | Woo, editors! :) | 21:11 |
| bwmaker | I did try openSuse and Fedora 21 for a month or so each. | 21:13 |
| bwmaker | Came back to Ubuntu/Mint. Just can't get away from the ease and number of deb packages. | 21:19 |
| Unit193 | Mint. :3 | 21:19 |
| Unit193 | And yeah, I'd be stuck with Debian based too. Pretty much only one outside of that I would consider is Arch or Arch based. | 21:20 |
| Unit193 | Oh gosh, another Alien movie? | 21:33 |
| Unit193 | So, just in case I didn't kill the channel dead enough, http://explosm.net/show/episode/141/step-on-a-crack :3 | 23:04 |
