jrwrenoh yeah, new lv just for lxc with an lvcache pool.00:51
jrwrenwent from 33s for lxc-create to 8.5s00:51
cmaloneyGood morning10:44
_stink_yo11:31
cmaloneyAre we having fun yet?13:24
brouschOf course. It's Windows 10 day!13:35
jrwrenugh.13:36
jrwreni'm so sick of hearing about windows 10.13:36
jrwreni actually dread when win7 goes out of support, becuase soon after my wife will start asking for support.13:37
brouschIt's the newest Windows!13:37
jrwrenso was windows me, at one point.13:37
cmaloneyHey, they fixed the start menu13:37
jrwrenkinda.13:37
cmaloneyso now if you have more than 500 entries it'll just silently truncate them13:38
jrwrenis there a way to make windows 10 look and act just like windows 7? no? then I'm not interested :)13:38
brouschIt has less monkey sweat than previous Windows!13:38
cmaloneybecause Microsoft likes hard limits13:38
jrwren500?!?! yow13:38
cmaloneyjrwren: Windows 7 is Windows Xp all over again13:38
brouschIt's similar to win713:38
brouschReally it's not bad13:38
cmaloneyjrwren: Ars did a great write-up on Windows 1013:38
cmaloneyas is their wont13:38
jrwrenbrousch: you once learned to use win8 or win81?  I can't figure those out, so I do not want to waste time figuring out win10 when win7 works fine for all my use cases.13:39
jrwrenAll my use cases being Starcraft2 and EAC :)13:40
brouschI've spent probably 100 hours using win8, and hated it13:40
brouschThey hid most of the win8 annoyances in "tablet mode", which you can toggle easily13:40
jrwrenoh, so you really can use it like win7?13:40
brouschPRetty much13:41
cmaloneyhttp://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2015/07/review-windows-10-is-the-best-version-yet-once-the-bugs-get-fixed/13:41
brouschHave to search for everything, like settings, since they moved them around13:41
jrwrendid Peter write that?13:42
jrwrenyeah, I only trust Peter so far, he is deep in it coming from a VERY different POV than me.13:43
cmaloneyYeah, it's Peter Bright13:44
cmaloneyAlmost like my trust of Paul Thurrot to talk about things related to MS that I couldn't care less about13:45
cmaloneybut at least do some research13:45
cmaloneyUnlike that tool that they got on Cranky Geeks (Enderle, iirc)13:45
cmaloneyI swear Rob Enderle is like a stopped clock: only right twice a day and only for one second before he gets it completely wrong again.13:46
brouschI still prefer KDE13:47
jrwrenI chatted with Peter 10+yrs ago in #linux on ars irc. So maybe I know him a tiny bit better than some? But ALWAYS consider the source :)13:51
cmaloneyyeah, no kidding13:51
jrwrenThurrot, same thing. doesn't understand or use tech the same way I do, and definitely is pro-ms in everything.13:51
cmaloneyjrwren: you were my go-to person for non-bullshit Windows info13:51
jrwrenI mean, the guy talks about windows phone like its a real thing. What is it? 1% of the market?13:51
jrwrencmaloney: sorry, I left that world :)13:52
cmaloneyI'm not sorry in the slightest13:52
cmaloneyWell, Thurrot definitely has his head in the punchbowl looking to get the purest mixture.13:52
cmaloneyAnd I'm sure Windows Phone is what the Windows-faithful want13:53
cmaloneyMuch like somoene telling me they still take Blackberry seriously.13:53
cmaloneyThey tend to have a junk-drawer-full of the previous generations of faith.13:54
cmaloneySame can be said about any OS, really.13:54
jrwrencmaloney: its true. I feel like when you start talking about things with 1% market share and less, they kind of all get the same treatment. Windows Phone, Ubuntu Phone, Amiga and BeOS diehards, OS2 users, freebsd users, any bsd users.14:01
jrwrenits like, yes, your stuff works, unfortunately its also entirely irrelevant14:01
cmaloneyjrwren: Yeah, it's kind of cool to see people still rocking the Amiga / BeOS14:03
cmaloneyand kind of sad in a way.14:03
cmaloneyI'm sure someone out there is excited about Amiga OS 4.114:03
brouschLinux desktop ...14:15
jrwrenbrousch: its true!14:22
jcastroI've had a few win10 boxes for a while if anyone has questions14:57
jrwrenjcastro: how bad does it suck?14:57
jrwrenjcastro: :)14:57
jrwreni'm j/k.14:57
jrwrenI know that any dislike I have is really a matter of taste and old kurmudgeonness14:58
jcastroshrug, it's pretty good14:58
jcastroboot time is nice14:58
jrwreni'm afraid htat if i upgrade, someone will have moved my cheese and it will piss me off lots.14:59
jcastrothey finally have virtual desktop14:59
jrwrenoh that is right! maybe I'll love it!15:00
cmaloneyYay Virtual Desktop15:08
cscheibjrwren: that's a big step in life, admitting you've talked to Peter15:13
cscheibthe road to recovery begins with acknowledgement15:14
jrwrencscheib: hahahah15:17
cscheibhe is a vile human being16:07
greg-gjrwren is vile? man, don't say that in front of him16:11
jrwreni knew what cscheib meant.16:28
greg-g:P16:30
cscheibheh16:34
cscheibjrwren: I should probably be in A2 tomorrow, if you wanna grab lunch.  hopefully I wake up early enough to go ou there16:44
jrwrencscheib: cool, sounds good.16:48
jrwrencscheib: should we see if jcastro is around?16:48
cscheibsure16:49
jcastromarco is here17:12
jcastroso yes, count us in17:12
jcastrowe have a charm school @ 4pm though, so any time before then would be ideal17:12
cmaloneyMarco Armet?17:15
cscheibdon't believe I know Marco17:20
jcastroyou don't, but I was just saying I am hosting a guest17:21
jcastrowhich means I also have transportation!17:21
cmaloneywoo woo!17:21
cscheibaha17:22
cscheibwhere shall we eat?  somewhere not too crazy far from State/Eisenhower17:22
cscheibwithin 5-10 min drive of there17:23
cscheib(including parking)17:23
jrwrenif it is downtown, I can ride my bike :)17:31
jrwreni guess I can ride my bike to state/eisenhower too17:31
jcastroLos Amigos is good17:31
jcastroalso bee dubs17:31
jrwrenjcastro: Ceppi ?17:32
jcastrojrwren: yeah, two person sprint heh17:32
jrwrenjcastro: cool!17:32
jrwrenLos Amigos sounds really good to me.17:34
cscheibyea, no bdubs. there's enough salt in their food to season a week's worth of meals17:34
jrwrennot to mention the clorine washed tyson chicken? :)17:35
cscheibthat too17:41
cscheibI can do los amigos17:41
cscheibis that the place we went last timte?17:41
cscheib*time17:41
jcastrono17:42
jcastrothis is a sitdown mexican place across from the mall17:42
jrwrencscheib: did I never take you there? they have great lunch specials and very reasonable prices.17:48
jrwrencscheib: its just before the i94 entrance when you are going south on state, on the right, behind a BP gas station17:49
cscheibvery bodega-y?17:56
jrwrenI am unsure.18:03
cscheibwe went to some mexican place once, when jorge wouldn't leave the house18:13
jrwrenlol, that was probably it.18:13
jrwreni can't remember where we went and didn't. I know we got Chipotle and I know we went to Madras Masala a couple ties.18:14
jrwren*times.18:14
jrwrenI'd love to get back there sometimes.18:14
jrwrenomg, cannot type. I quit. :)18:14
cscheibI don't recall ever going to Chipotle... we went to Frita Batido and that pizza place18:15
cscheibI can barely type either... I got a clicky keyboard, and it's taking some getting used to18:15
cscheibtoo used to the macbook chiclets now18:15
jrwrenmmm... Frita18:16
jrwrenNeopapolis, they are good too.18:16
jrwrenwe have good taste :)18:16
cmaloney(Chipotle is awesome)18:22
greg-gI dislike cilantro rice18:23
jrwrengreg-g: WHAT?!?!18:24
greg-gI'm one of those who thinks cilantro tastes like soap18:24
jrwrengreg-g: you poor poor sad man.18:25
cmaloneygreg-g: I feel sorry for your tastebuds18:25
jrwrengreg-g: at least you don't have it for hops.18:25
jrwrenGENE THEARAPY!!!18:26
greg-gno, I just now get migraines from too many hops :/18:26
jrwrenlol, is it really the hops?18:26
cmaloneygreg-g: I think you need to look into transhumanisnm18:26
greg-gyeah18:26
greg-gjrwren: wheat beers like blue moon don't affect me18:26
cmaloneybecause your body is obviously defective18:26
greg-gI did extensive testing, believe me :)18:26
cmaloneyWhat about stouts and porters or are those right out?18:27
cmaloneyhttps://www.humblebundle.com/books?music_bookbundle18:28
cmaloneyGod dammit18:28
greg-gI haven't drank many of those mostly due to weather out here :)18:28
cscheibit does taste like soap18:29
jrwrenOR6A2 gene therapy18:30
cscheibugh, I need to focus on learning a language and sticking with it one of these days18:41
jrwrencscheib: python is the best.18:42
cscheibwhyfor18:42
jrwrencuz I R developer with Opinions and no brains18:42
cscheibwell, I knew that18:43
cscheibI've messed with Ruby a bit, but not done anything serious with it18:44
cscheiband I haven't used perl in ages, so using it again woudl pretty much be akin to relearning it18:44
cscheibI try not to do anything of significant complexity in bash.18:44
jrwrenbash4 is awesome. finally, hashes in the shell. no use for perl no more :p18:45
jrwrenand debian finally got their head out their ass and enabled /dev/tcp in bash.18:45
cscheibWAT https://imessageforwindows.org/18:45
cmaloneyI'm really liking Python18:45
cscheibnot sure if I should install that app, but imessage on windows would be fantastic.18:46
brouschjrwren: You are recommending Python over C# now?18:46
cscheibhe probably knows there's no way I'd go for C#18:46
jrwrenbrousch: hrm... really tough call.18:46
jrwrenbrousch: it depends on the use case. C# on windows, python everywhere else.18:46
cscheibC# and not PS?18:47
jrwrenyes.18:47
jrwrenPS is an abomination18:47
jrwrenPS never should have existed. The industry is setback by years by it.18:47
jrwrenIt is sad really.18:47
brouschHm, I've heard it's quite good, but then it's replacing .bat files18:47
cscheibevery Windows person I know LOVES them some PowerShell18:47
cscheibespecially Exchange and VMWare guys18:48
brouschA former Python dev I know started a PS user group he loves it so much18:49
jrwrenoh, I didn't say it wasn't beloved.18:49
jrwrenperl is beloved.18:50
jrwrenits still pretty shitty.18:50
jrwrenjava is beloved.18:50
jrwrenits still pretty shitty.18:50
brouschjava is beloved?18:50
jrwrenI R developer with Opinions18:50
jrwrenbrousch: fuk yeah, ever talk to java devs? they LOVE that shit18:50
brouschI must be missing something18:50
cscheibhe is correct18:52
cscheibJava devs don't like it18:52
cscheiberr do like it18:52
cscheibit's the admins that don't like it18:52
jrwrenthey still think C# is Dflat. They still think the JVM is faster than .NET. They still think the JVM is fast period. They don't see any problems with the java language.18:54
jrwrenblows my mind everytime run into them.18:54
jrwrenbut then again, I hate almost everything :)18:55
brouschWell if you never try anything else ...18:55
brouschDoing my clean win10 install now18:55
jrwreni'm too scared to upgrade. I fear all will break. And I'm happy with win7, so no upgrade for me.18:57
brouschwhat happened to you?18:57
jrwrenbrousch: starcraft2. I can't be fixing a broken windows computer instead of playing sc219:00
jrwrenseriously, I think I really got sick of fixing broken OS. I'd rather fix broken apps, or create new apps.19:01
jrwrenI think win11 will be what I really like. openssh, maybe posix apis(fingers crossed).19:02
cscheibactually, from what I've heard, the JVM is actually pretty fast... just not interpreting Java19:03
cscheibjruby, clojure, etc... are fast allegedly19:03
jrwrencscheib: lol. fast compared to what.19:04
jrwrencscheib: java is faster than any of those language on JVM.19:04
jrwrenthat is hte funny part. fast is relative. faster than what? yeah, jruby is fast, because ruby is so damn slow.19:04
cscheibthere was some discussion regarding it somewhere wrt puppet19:05
cscheibthey chose clojure on JVM19:06
cscheibfor performance19:06
cscheibfor both puppetdb and puppetserver19:06
cscheibseems to be a popular go-to in some circles, now19:06
jrwrendefinitely. I know some folks who love it, and when you are used to Ruby, its fast.19:07
jrwrenWhen you are used to C, or go, its hilarious by comparison.19:07
cscheibbrousch: my Win10 upgrade went decently19:09
cscheibthe only thing I really had issues with was the GeForce driver/GeForce Experience app19:10
cscheibthe GeForce app wouldn't upgrade the drivers for me... it failed on deleting/upgrading PhysX19:10
cscheibso I had to use Windows to search online for the new driver19:10
cscheiband... then they came into some kind of agreement.19:11
jrwrenI couldn't handle that. It'd drive me mad.19:17
jrwrenmaybe it is because my win8.1 experience was so bad and I wasted so many hours on it.19:17
jrwrenbrousch: so that is what happened to me. I started valuing my time a lot more.19:17
cscheibI don't mind 8.1, other than the janky start screen19:24
cscheibit's kinda f'ed up when you have a 1440p display, run everything in non-fullscreen windows, and then you get jolted into a full screen start menu19:24
