[15:12] my client who's getting this machine [15:12] oh [15:12] my bad, i'm quite often vague XD [15:13] :D [15:13] did you try the ubuntu phone or see it live? [15:13] nah [15:13] if i'm honest i think it's laughable [15:13] me neither, i'm curious how it's like [15:13] i've not seen pics or anything [15:14] i should probably google :P [15:14] "for further info please join #ubuntu-touch" ;D [15:17] i'm watching http://www.ubuntu.com/phone , the video is making me want to go out and eat [15:17] lol, almost seems like it's not about the phone [15:18] as in the physical handset, or the form factor? [15:18] nah i guess it's on point [15:25] i'm going to order a pizza hut [15:25] i ordered the extra-large once and i got hooked, it's so huge you won't believe [15:25] i end up microwaving and eating the rest at night [15:26] XD [15:26] let me tell you something that'll blow your mind [15:26] i hope this is a pizza is good for you fact [15:26] :D [15:26] growing up over here, there was no such thing as delivered pizza [15:26] oh wow [15:26] also we have none of the fast food chains [15:27] yikes [15:27] there was a KFC briefly in the early 80s apparently, so before my time... then we had a Burger King briefly for a couple of years in my teens, but the guy funding it went bankrupt [15:27] well we got mcdonald's here in ~2000 ( the whole country ) [15:27] the one larger island near me has a KFC and McDonalds, but i'd only get to try them when in England otherwise [15:28] even now? [15:28] what about now? [15:29] I have a place right in the centre of my capital, literally 10m from the high-street. There's a pizza place around the corner that's meant to do delivery, never tried though :) [15:29] i like my curry so my local indian takeaway is maybe 30m from my door [15:29] cool [15:29] i've never had indian food [15:29] :O do you like things spicy? [15:30] nope [15:30] i puke if it's too spicy [15:31] my friend is from african, and he loves spicy stuff, i ate at his place once a native african meal and i drank water after every bite, couple hours later --> puke fest [15:31] oh dear! [15:32] water is actually the worst, as it opens your tastebuds to more of the onslaught :) [15:32] milk is the neutraliser [15:32] oh, lol :D [15:32] i think it comes down to genes at the end of the day, no silly macho angle of course. i enjoy a nice spicy meal but it has to remain actually enjoyable [15:33] yeah, that's true, my whole family doesn't eat spicey food [15:33] ah ha [15:33] i like a little spice in the pizza [15:33] gives it a little oomph [15:33] i don't really know what got mine into it, as my dad can't eat any of it either [15:33] :D [15:34] i like to buy these meat feast ones from the supermarkets over here, then tap a bit of tabasco over the top before throwing in the oven [15:35] haha :D [15:41] https://carpenterbrut.bandcamp.com/album/ep-i [15:41] aaah latest musical discovery [15:43] cool [15:44] sounds good [15:45] :D [15:48] :D [15:50] ok my mate wants me to try a CentOS live session too haha, (on this Lenovo) as he uses that for his PhD physics software [15:53] cool :D [15:53] for ubuntu hmm, i'm sure vivid would work better but i don't do non-LTS ^_^ [15:54] daftykins, you're missing all the fun then [15:54] upgrade hell? ;) [15:55] clean installs [15:56] where's your sense of adventure? Unless of course you're at work [15:56] mmm i definitely don't believe in upgrades [15:56] well it's just gonna be trying out a live session on this new machine for fun, it's not mine so won't be installing [15:57] my stuff is ancient in comparison, core 2 quad desktop with DDR2 from 2007 and a sandybridge laptop from don't-even-know [15:59] I have a 2yr old laptop, but this pc is an amd 2008 vintage HP desktop, dual core cpu, with RAM upgrades to 6G and pci audio and gpu ? [15:59] :) [16:00] err ignore the ? [16:00] i quite like letting my clients spend the money, i get to play with the lovely new kit then give it back at the end of the day [16:00] it all works great on kubuntu [16:01] still have 10yrold WD HDD as a windows drive [16:02] :) [16:02] one thing i have done is go SSD across all my kit [16:02] i think that makes the difference between tolerating such old hardware and not [16:03] well it's our media server setup and it works for us [16:04] BBL [16:14] have you guys noticed that if you have a lot of nearby wireless networks, NM on a unity desktop actually puts the best-signal strength one right at the bottom of the list, under 'more networks'? [16:14] totally stupid imo [16:15] can't say i've noticed that, it's stupid though [16:15] wow at ubuntu on this screen o0 [16:16] nice [16:16] i lately have been reading about resolution and stuff, now i want a 1920 screen [16:16] mine is 1366, i always wondered why other desktop's have such a huge space in the launcher [16:17] i wanna buy another lcd screen so i've been reading a bit [16:17] (tv) [16:17] :D [16:17] my old laptop is 1366 too [16:17] my desktop has a pair of 24" LCDs of 1920x1200 each [16:17] much spoilt++ [16:18] :D [16:19] http://i.imgur.com/JJcq37s.jpg [16:20] this is with scaling set to 1.25x to make it look a little more sane [16:21] using our plsama TV as a monitor since I'm chating on the media server pc and #m away in my easy chair with wireless KB and mouse ... comfy situation for an old guy :-) [16:21] 3M away [16:22] looks good [16:24] lazy old guy who's procrastinating cutting the lawn , but gotta do it before the rain arrives toight [16:26] http://i.imgur.com/0X3yocv.jpg - 1.00x scaling [16:29] oops, Konverstion just froze then crashed , plasma desktop still not ready for prime time methinks [16:29] plasma 5.3.1 that is [16:31] =] [16:31] unstable version? [16:33] well CentOS booting on this thing has a 3.10 kernel and doesn't work with the wifi out of the box [16:35] yeah I'm testing Kubuntu 15.10 Wily, altho it behaves most of the time there ia the odd freeze/crash now and then [16:36] ia=is [16:37] ah right [16:37] never really gone near KDE [16:37] i fear i'll start prepending 'k' to all my words if i did ;) [16:37] love KDE, unity/gnome never did much for me [16:39] <--old windows guy...it was more familiar to me in 2004 when i seriously got into linux distros , trying this and that [16:43] that makes sense [16:43] xfce is quite comfy to me, but you have to fight it a lot [16:44] seems whenever i try to disable screen blanking, locking, screensavers etc there's always something else making it happen still [16:44] really drives me mad about Linux usage as a whole on a mobile device :P [18:16] pity, i can't run irssi from a remote server -- unixssh.com [18:17] been doing it for some weeks, now it's blocked [18:19] OMG i just had to completely disable IPV6 to properly update my system :S [18:54] ipv6 where, on your router? [18:54] oops missed the exit [19:32] support - lotuspsychje - has arrived ! [19:45] :D [20:00] Bashing-om: :p:p [20:00] * lotuspsychje doesnt like disconnects while away
