| jani_ | Hi! | 17:44 |
|---|---|---|
| ianorlyn | hi jani_ | 17:45 |
| jani_ | im completely new in this cahnnel :) | 17:45 |
| jani_ | hi ianorlyn | 17:46 |
| ianorlyn | yay new faces | 17:46 |
| jani_ | is there any company for ubuntu in california, or just a free team? | 17:46 |
| ianorlyn | there are companies that use it at least one that sells with preinstalled | 17:47 |
| ianorlyn | I actually have seen a few small shops that say they do repairs on ubuntu computers but they are smaller | 17:47 |
| jani_ | That's great! :) and how about ubuntu in america? -cos in California there are a lots of other os companies, Apple, or Microsoft | 17:48 |
| ianorlyn | I know google uses some version internally | 17:49 |
| jani_ | wow | 17:50 |
| ianorlyn | A lot of local vendors that rent out virtual personal servers offer ubuntu as an option | 17:50 |
| jani_ | sounds good :) | 17:50 |
| ianorlyn | I actually do a lot of testing for lubuntu but I have a different motherboard than one used by system76 who do sell ocmputers with ubuntu preinstalled | 17:51 |
| jani_ | In Hungary in my town there are a lots of Ubuntu pc-s, Cos nobody can afford Mac, or Microsoft. The Salary is so low, in here a Microsoft Windows can be a full month salary! or 80% | 17:51 |
| DonkeyHotei | but system76 is not based in california | 17:51 |
| ianorlyn | I know it is not | 17:51 |
| ianorlyn | that is only because I talked to ian at Scale in feburary and they said they don't offer vt-d on their desktops | 17:52 |
| DonkeyHotei | we do have zareason though, which is, and they talk to each other a lot | 17:52 |
| ianorlyn | I didn't get to talk to people from zareason who is based | 17:52 |
| ianorlyn | I have seen ads for a place called current build but those seem a little low end | 17:52 |
| DonkeyHotei | zareason has had booths at scale before | 17:53 |
| ianorlyn | one thing is they don't offer intel graphics and 1080p screen on a laptop though | 17:53 |
| DonkeyHotei | in fact, earl walked by me once and in passing slapped an ubuntu key sticker straight on my windows key, and it's still on | 17:54 |
| DonkeyHotei | at scale | 17:54 |
| jani_ | In Hungary laptops and PC is not a lots of money, but Softwares are :( | 17:55 |
| jani_ | You can build a full game compatible strong pc by the price of the Windows 8 .( | 17:56 |
| ianorlyn | actually the other bad thing about commercial stuff like windows is it is hard to report a bug to them and get it fixed | 17:56 |
| jani_ | Yeah i know, and updates can be goes wrong :D | 17:57 |
| ianorlyn | I really don't like windows update I like apt-get much more and that has been around for a while | 17:58 |
| === danielg4 is now known as DonkeyHotei | ||
| jani_ | yeah i know, in home i completely use ubuntu all the machines | 18:22 |
| jani_ | but in work i have to use win :( | 18:22 |
| jani_ | ianorlyn where do you live? | 18:23 |
| pleia2 | welcome jani_ | 18:23 |
| jani_ | hi pleia2 :) | 18:24 |
| jani_ | u are from the sun shiny california? :) | 18:24 |
| pleia2 | I live here, that's why I'm in this channel ;) | 18:28 |
| DonkeyHotei | iirc you actually joined the channel even before you moved out here | 18:29 |
| pleia2 | yep, I had different reasons then | 18:29 |
| pleia2 | now I'm here because I live here | 18:30 |
| DonkeyHotei | i wouldn't want to live anywhere else | 18:31 |
| DonkeyHotei | but i might take a trip to philly in the fall | 18:31 |
| ianorlyn | Torrance it is near LA but a little bit south and west | 18:37 |
| jani_ | i love LA | 18:42 |
| DonkeyHotei | lala land | 18:42 |
| DonkeyHotei | i call it that sometimes | 18:42 |
| DonkeyHotei | there's much about los angeles that i don't like | 18:43 |
| jani_ | i currently live in Hungary, but i want to live in CA, but not really easy to move there fo non us citizens | 18:44 |
| DonkeyHotei | but los angelenos are just as californian as us here | 18:44 |
| ianorlyn | yeah public transport in LA isn't good | 18:44 |
| jani_ | its not a pwoblem if u have a car :) | 18:45 |
| ianorlyn | but traffic is bad | 18:45 |
| jani_ | i have a favourite series wich played in LA | 18:45 |
| ianorlyn | I don't like the 405 | 18:45 |
| DonkeyHotei | traditionally, in LA everyone either drives or has someone who can driver them | 18:45 |
| DonkeyHotei | *drive them | 18:46 |
| jani_ | yeah | 18:46 |
| jani_ | i dont have a clue how to move LA from Europe :D | 18:46 |
| ianorlyn | which means I end up driving my parents places | 18:46 |
| DonkeyHotei | your parents don't drive? | 18:47 |
| ianorlyn | my mom did but gave it up after a crazy storing of buying a bmw running away from people she thought were chasing her | 18:47 |
| ianorlyn | and my dad has recently had cataracts and eye problems | 18:48 |
| DonkeyHotei | my mom still drove for a while after cataract surgery on both eyes | 18:48 |
| DonkeyHotei | she has since given it up | 18:49 |
| jani_ | how about works in CA? i heard from a friend its hard to find a job there | 18:50 |
| DonkeyHotei | it can be | 18:50 |
| ianorlyn | I am horrible at that | 18:50 |
| DonkeyHotei | but many parts of the country are much worse | 18:50 |
| jani_ | how worse is that? | 18:51 |
| ianorlyn | I really find it frustrating how they expect you to be working to find a job | 18:51 |
| DonkeyHotei | here in san francisco there are more and more tech jobs so the requirements become less stringent | 18:52 |
| jani_ | ianorlyn why is it frustrating? | 18:55 |
| jani_ | DonkeyHotei yeah cos the apple is very near :) | 18:55 |
| DonkeyHotei | there's a lot more than just apple | 18:56 |
| ianorlyn | jani_: long personal story with I am bad at interviews | 18:56 |
| DonkeyHotei | yes, unfortunately for you they actually care about facial expression, body language, and speech qualities | 18:59 |
| jani_ | im not bad, but in my location there is very hard to find a job, cos there is no new job. And i u get a job, you will earn maximum $420 a month or under | 18:59 |
| DonkeyHotei | but the cost of living is lower, no? | 19:00 |
| jani_ | no | 19:00 |
| DonkeyHotei | you're in the european union | 19:00 |
| jani_ | i sad it before if u buy a windows 8 its full your salary, or 80% | 19:01 |
| jani_ | yeah and i hate it | 19:01 |
| jani_ | i earn $521 in a month and there is nothing remains after the end of the month | 19:02 |
| jani_ | and im an IT | 19:02 |
| jani_ | i cant imagine the workers, and builders who earns under $300 / month | 19:03 |
| jani_ | so i will live in ca if i can | 19:07 |
| jani_ | but its so hard, it takes ages to move there | 19:07 |
| DonkeyHotei | for jobs we hope to give priority to those already here, since more people = fewer jobs left | 19:10 |
| jani_ | yeah i knwo | 19:12 |
| jani_ | *know | 19:12 |
| jani_ | its true | 19:13 |
| ianorlyn | yay screenshots http://brendanperrine.com/screenshotgal/ | 19:31 |
| darthrobot | Title: [screenshot gallery] | 19:31 |
| DonkeyHotei | cute URL | 19:31 |
| ianorlyn | although I actually use a program called lazygal to make these and is pretty easy to use | 19:32 |
| ianorlyn | although most people use flickr or something similar | 19:32 |
| DonkeyHotei | imgur seems popular | 19:32 |
| ianorlyn | yes that too | 19:33 |
