[16:38] <xTEMPLARx> What would make one choose fedora over cent, or vice versa
[16:43] <Unit193> Fedora is actually updated, CentOS is more solid for servers.
[16:45] <xTEMPLARx> So generally better for desktop use then
[16:46] <xTEMPLARx> Makes sense
[16:52] <wrst> howdy xTEMPLARx, Unit193
[16:53] <xTEMPLARx> Heya wrst
[16:53] <wrst> xTEMPLARx: just use arch its no trouble that way
[16:54] <xTEMPLARx> Not a fan of arch thus far, but mostly due to impatience
[16:54] <wrst> set it and forget it :)
[16:54] <wrst> but the setting it takes a bit
[16:55] <Unit193> Howdy.
[16:55] <Unit193> wrst: Arch on the server? :P
[16:55] <xTEMPLARx> Agreed WRST
[16:56] <wrst> no Unit193, not on a server
[16:57] <Unit193> Knew someone that did.
[16:57] <xTEMPLARx> Why not?
[16:59] <wrst> latest and greatest isn't always the best idea on a server is it?
[17:00] <xTEMPLARx> If you're constantly updating that's usually not a good idea
[17:00] <xTEMPLARx> Set it and forget it right?
[17:00] <wrst> other than the updating
[17:00] <wrst> :)
[17:01] <xTEMPLARx> Now see
[17:01] <xTEMPLARx> It's like getting married
[17:01] <wrst> I wouldn't want to have an arch box then come back in 6 months and update it
[17:01] <wrst> it would likely go up in smoke, but update it a couple times a week no issue
[17:01] <xTEMPLARx> All the extra work nobody warned you about when you were staring longingly into your bride's eyes
[17:02] <xTEMPLARx> I'm sliw typing on iPhone
[17:02] <xTEMPLARx> Slow too
[17:02] <xTEMPLARx> I'd use speech recognition to type but I'm at Krystal's
[17:02] <wrst> ha ha
[17:04] <Unit193> I wouldn't want to wait 6 months on any server, at the rate of openssl.
[17:04] <wrst> that's a good point
[17:04] <wrst> but you know what I mean
[17:06] <Unit193> Yeeep.
[17:06] <xTEMPLARx> [13:01] <faugusztin> Codmadnesspro: http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/Does-Mayonnaise-Last-as-a-Thermal-Compound/1793
[17:06] <Unit193> Also, I'm unmarried.
[17:06] <xTEMPLARx> And it's not even April yet
[17:09] <xTEMPLARx> Bak to work with me
[17:09] <xTEMPLARx> Back too
[18:01] <bwmaker> I tried Arch once. Once being the keyword there. I did it just to say that I did it.
[18:01] <bwmaker> I'm finding Fedora very enjoyable.
[18:07] <xTEMPLARx> i used to be a redhat fanboy after I got done with slackware
[18:07] <xTEMPLARx> was using redhat when they branched off to fedora
[18:07] <xTEMPLARx> used fedora for a little while after that and kinda bailed on it for a little while in general
[18:07] <xTEMPLARx> came back full force when ubuntu caught my eye
[18:08] <xTEMPLARx> I still have (somewhere) some old redhat install cds
[18:08] <xTEMPLARx> used to still have my old slackware floppies, but  I think they're gone now lol
[18:11] <bwmaker> :) I didn't know about Linux until 2009. Pretty sure 8.10 was my first Linux experience. I do probably still have some Windows 3.11 floppies, though.
[18:11] <bwmaker> *Ubuntu 8.10
[18:19] <xTEMPLARx> :D  good old 3.11. My first solitaire emulator.
[18:25] <bwmaker> Ha!
[18:26] <bwmaker> My mom finally switched to a MacBook Pro. She loves it and I'm happy she's off Windows. Next time, she might be ready for Gnome.
[18:40] <xTEMPLARx> i took my dad straight from windows xp to ubuntu 7 or so. he never could tell the diff
[18:41] <bwmaker> I actually had a co-worker do that to his wife recently, until she tried installing an EXE.
[18:43] <xTEMPLARx> my dad was installing too many EXEs, if you catch my meaning. he didn't know any better and assumed if someone sent him an email it MUST have been for him
[18:43] <xTEMPLARx> so firefox on ubuntu 7 or so and he's in good shape
[18:44] <xTEMPLARx> he HAS been able to break it a few times
[18:45] <bwmaker> :)
[18:45] <bwmaker> Does he use the software center at all?
[18:46] <xTEMPLARx> but by break it, I mean he's moved his task bars to all the wrong places, and adds new ones where none should be
[18:46] <xTEMPLARx> he doesn't use the software center
[18:46] <xTEMPLARx> to him, the browser is his computer
[18:46] <bwmaker> Yeah. My dad got an ipad and just uses it all the time. He got a smart tv, too, so he talks to it some.
[18:47] <bwmaker> It's a fascinating interaction. It doesn't understand him when he says "Nascar". "D
[18:47] <bwmaker> :D
[18:49] <xTEMPLARx> lol
[22:47] <Grammar> Intense crowd.
[23:11] <bwmaker> Howdy.
