| lotuspsychje | EriC^^: morning | 04:37 |
| daftykins | o/ | 04:38 |
| lotuspsychje | daftykins: hellow :p | 04:38 |
| daftykins | morning sir | 04:38 |
| daftykins | ugh you missed one of the lower points of the channel =| | 04:38 |
| daftykins | a bloody spammer linked to child porn again =| | 04:38 |
| lotuspsychje | what happened | 04:38 |
| lotuspsychje | ouch | 04:38 |
| lotuspsychje | who banned him? | 04:38 |
| daftykins | i did an !ops and thankfully Flannel showed up | 04:39 |
| lotuspsychje | why they always choose ubuntu to spam lol | 04:39 |
| daftykins | it's weird isn't it? ##windows i can imagine | 04:39 |
| daftykins | something genuinely hated | 04:39 |
| lotuspsychje | lol | 04:39 |
| daftykins | but volunteers helping for free for a Linux distro, just don't get it | 04:40 |
| lotuspsychje | maybe MS hired freaks to spam haha | 04:40 |
| daftykins | there are those who don't like the way the channel is run, of course | 04:40 |
| daftykins | XD | 04:40 |
| lotuspsychje | we are getting power worldwide with ubuntu now | 04:41 |
| lotuspsychje | some might not be happy about that | 04:41 |
| daftykins | the pretentious might have a problem with the masses using Linux yeah | 04:41 |
| daftykins | i've attracted a few fans in my time that come in just trying to troll me, that's for sure | 04:42 |
| lotuspsychje | lolz | 04:42 |
| daftykins | it's funny, sometimes you can spend 3 hours straight helping someone get ubuntu installed on their machine | 04:43 |
| daftykins | but a next user comes in and you call them out for being too lazy to even google their problem - and you get a fan for life :P | 04:44 |
| lotuspsychje | yeah i never get that | 04:44 |
| lotuspsychje | loool | 04:44 |
| daftykins | not sure if you have this phrase us Brit-ish types do, "no good deed goes unpunished" | 04:44 |
| lotuspsychje | well at the end we have a good felling upon ourselfs thats the only thing that matters to me | 04:45 |
| daftykins | mmm, puzzle solving can be ace | 04:46 |
| lotuspsychje | and we learn much ourselfs | 04:46 |
| daftykins | definitely - i mean i don't even USE ubuntu 8D | 04:47 |
| lotuspsychje | oh really | 04:47 |
| daftykins | desktop anyway ;D | 04:47 |
| lotuspsychje | wich distro? | 04:47 |
| daftykins | *cough* Windows | 04:49 |
| lotuspsychje | :p | 04:49 |
| daftykins | my ubuntu exposure is primarily servers | 04:50 |
| lotuspsychje | you game? | 04:50 |
| daftykins | mostly on consoles as i have friends too poor to buy PCs :) | 04:51 |
| daftykins | nah the majority of my work remains on Windows desktops so that's where my skills must stay | 04:51 |
| lotuspsychje | ic | 04:52 |
| daftykins | although it's a little worrying that i can still suggest reasonable solutions to Linux desktop queries people in other channels have, even when surrounded by people who use Linux desktops 24/7 | 04:52 |
| daftykins | e.g. someone installed Linux for their mother back home, wanted to setup remote access... but that mother still took her laptop out and about occasionally | 04:53 |
| daftykins | so i said configure a static IP for the home wifi network via network manager | 04:53 |
| daftykins | nobody else had a clue :( | 04:53 |
| daftykins | i feel bad for kind of "ringing my own bell" there as we say, but it just shocked me that 24/7 Linux desktop types had no idea how to tackle that problem | 04:53 |
| lotuspsychje | :p | 04:54 |
| lotuspsychje | i try a mix of windows and ubuntu, but prefer to install ubuntu as its a long term solution | 04:55 |
| daftykins | there is that, all the people i help are locked into some proprietary software or another though | 04:55 |
| daftykins | and i would never put ubuntu in for anyone because i simply couldn't support it without using it myself | 04:55 |
| lotuspsychje | some ppl also dont understand ubuntu | 04:55 |
| lotuspsychje | but most multimedia use, have no troubles | 04:56 |
| lotuspsychje | my dad is 78 and never managed to crash ubuntu desktop yet :p | 04:57 |
| lotuspsychje | before i had to come fix windows every month | 04:57 |
| daftykins | i just remember back in the gnome 2 era, pre unity, when ubuntu couldn't even keep panel elements in the same places between boots | 04:58 |
| lotuspsychje | lol | 04:58 |
| daftykins | bit shocking :/ | 04:58 |
| lotuspsychje | we come a long way indeed | 04:58 |
| lotuspsychje | i remember strugling on old redhat cdroms to get my internet working | 04:59 |
| lotuspsychje | but it fascinated me alot | 04:59 |
| daftykins | :D | 05:03 |
| daftykins | shared internet connections behind routers with wired or wifi definitely made it way easier for the modern generations | 05:04 |
| lotuspsychje | yeah true | 05:04 |
| daftykins | i think the first Linux i played with i was just missing my music collection | 05:04 |
| lotuspsychje | amarok :p | 05:04 |
| daftykins | i think it was stick on separate disks at the time | 05:07 |
| daftykins | and being too newb i would've had no idea how to mount some NTFS volume, if you even could back then | 05:07 |
| lotuspsychje | lolz | 05:07 |
| lotuspsychje | lol | 05:13 |
