| locodir-user | hello I was hoping someone could help me with installing ubuntu | 01:18 |
|---|---|---|
| locodir-user | I am getting an error message that says Cannot download the metalink and therefore the ISO | 01:20 |
| wolfger | I'm confused. I haven't done an install in some time (just keep updating existing installs), but last I checked downloading the ISO comes ahead of installing. It's what you use to make the CD/DVD/USB installer, yes? | 01:22 |
| locodir-user | yes I downloaded the iso | 01:23 |
| wolfger | ok. So I'm not understanding what the error message means. | 01:23 |
| locodir-user | me either I guess | 01:23 |
| wolfger | sorry. Wish I was more helpful. Not sure how many people are actually here this time on a Friday night... probably better luck asking again in roughly 12 hours. | 01:25 |
| locodir-user | okay thank you. | 01:25 |
| _stink_ | i think that message is for a wubi install | 01:39 |
| _stink_ | fwiw if locodir-user comes back | 01:41 |
| _stink_ | might help a google search | 01:41 |
| wolfger | a what install? | 01:53 |
| wolfger | nm, I can google wubi | 01:53 |
| cmaloney | apparenlt yYahoo Pipes is shutting down as well | 04:23 |
| wolfger | Now what's this I hear about Chrome ending support for Java? | 11:53 |
| wolfger | They decided they no longer wanted to be a popular browser? Or do they think they have the muscle to end internet Java applets? | 11:54 |
| wolfger | or is there some nuance to the story that the headline missed, and I was too lazy last night to rtfa? :-p | 11:55 |
| cscheib | wolfger: http://blog.chromium.org/2014/11/the-final-countdown-for-npapi.html | 11:57 |
| cscheib | wolfger: not Java, but NPAPI plugins in general | 11:57 |
| cscheib | afaik | 11:57 |
| wolfger | as I suspected, much less sky falling than was fearmongered. | 12:08 |
| cscheib | Orajava has the option of making a non-NPAPI plugin | 12:10 |
| cscheib | but, they probably won't | 12:10 |
| cscheib | or you can run their crap in another browser | 12:10 |
| cmaloney | morning | 12:27 |
| cmaloney | morning | 12:30 |
| cmaloney | get to clean out giutters today woo hoo | 12:30 |
| jrwren | who uses java in browsers? | 23:02 |
