Kilos | wbb mb meeting | 11:51 |
Kilos | TinuvaMac are you a mac user | 11:58 |
TinuvaMac | yeah i am | 11:58 |
Kilos | can you advise Sxuza please | 11:58 |
Kilos | Sxuza you still awake? | 11:59 |
Sxuza | yip im awake | 12:00 |
Sxuza | was onda phone | 12:01 |
Sxuza | thanks for the follow up Kilos | 12:01 |
Kilos | np tell TinuvaMac what you want to do | 12:01 |
Sxuza | TinuvaMac: u there ? | 12:01 |
Sxuza | o ok | 12:01 |
Kilos | im sure he will have advise | 12:02 |
Sxuza | was just thinking of trying a new operating system on my MAC | 12:02 |
Kilos | just remember to be patient | 12:02 |
Kilos | state which mac as well | 12:02 |
Sxuza | and thought before i do that i shud ask someone that has done it before | 12:02 |
Sxuza | MACbook Air | 12:03 |
TinuvaMac | ive only ever used osx on my mac | 12:03 |
Sxuza | ure not using linux on it ? | 12:03 |
TinuvaMac | and the little i have read up on installing linux on a mac, it seemed like a bit of a mission | 12:03 |
Sxuza | o ok | 12:03 |
TinuvaMac | the mission is if you want to keep osx and linux at the same time | 12:03 |
TinuvaMac | otherwise, if you wipe osx it should mostly just work | 12:03 |
TinuvaMac | except for wireless, depends on what wireless is in there | 12:04 |
Sxuza | thats what i wanted to do, i wanted to keep them both at the same time | 12:04 |
Sxuza | thats why i wanted to ask | 12:04 |
Sxuza | then again, i dont have any specific reason but just wanted to teach myself on how to use Linux | 12:05 |
TinuvaMac | if linux is what you want to learn, you can start by just using the terminal in osx | 12:08 |
TinuvaMac | thats what i use mostly on osx anyway | 12:08 |
Sxuza | sorry , i had a customer | 12:17 |
Sxuza | oh yea , installed V-box on my machine the other day | 12:18 |
Sxuza | gonna try that also | 12:18 |
Sxuza | i installed ubuntu , its running | 12:18 |
MaNI | can't imagine its that big of a mission - you just need an alternative boot loader like clover or whatever | 13:02 |
MaNI | if you want to go linux only then its really no different than any other machine - macs stopped having anything unique about them ages ago - unless we are talking some old PPC mac or something here? | 13:02 |
Sxuza | TinuvaMac: so are u using textual on ur MAC ? | 13:03 |
TinuvaMac | lime chat for irc | 13:05 |
Sxuza | o ok | 13:06 |
Sxuza | im using textual , changed from linechat | 13:06 |
Sxuza | upgrade ,lol | 13:07 |
TinuvaMac | textual is only free for 30 days | 13:10 |
TinuvaMac | im not used to buying apps | 13:10 |
TinuvaMac | so lime chat is free forever | 13:10 |
Sxuza | i get u , but when i found out textual is only R60 forever , and the custom settings it come with , to me i felt its nothing | 13:11 |
Sxuza | instead of buying a bottle of brandy , i bot this and got change | 13:12 |
Kilos | lol | 13:15 |
Sxuza | aint i right Kilos ? | 13:18 |
Kilos | yip | 13:27 |
Kilos | booze is a big waste of hard earned money | 13:28 |
Sxuza | how to improve your day on facebook 1.) Find a picture of your friends baby on facebook. 2.) Comment with "What kind of cat is that" 3.)Then wait .... | 13:49 |
=== Sxuza is now known as Lys | ||
Trixar_za | I would have bought the brandy for a few rand more myself | 14:46 |
MaNI | something seems incredibly wrong about paying for IRC | 15:07 |
MaNI | apple could probably convince their users to pay for air, it's so weird | 15:08 |
TinuvaMac | MaNI: but it is not apple selling that irc app | 15:32 |
TinuvaMac | that said, I agree, something is wrong paying for an irc app | 15:32 |
MaNI | TinuvaMac, no not Apple directly selling the app, but it is a general mindset that apple customers tend to have and/or apple have managed to cultivate | 16:17 |
MaNI | people even pay for ODBC drivers on osx its bizarre :p | 16:18 |
Trixar_za | Well, that's not completely fair. Microsoft and Android have done the same with the smart phone market. | 16:18 |
Kilos- | so many power outs in one avy | 17:38 |
Kilos- | sigh | 17:38 |
Kilos- | thanks for helping the new guy MaNI TinuvaMac | 17:39 |
Kilos- | hi Trixar_za long time no see | 17:39 |
Kilos- | and im about to give up for the day | 17:39 |
Trixar_za | Hey Kilos-, yeah I've been busy with things. Well, people more like it. Seeing less of said people, so I'm here more. | 17:39 |
Trixar_za | I should be working on stuff, but I'm not :/ | 17:40 |
Kilos- | ah | 17:40 |
Kilos- | just remember what you dont do today will still be there tomorrow | 17:41 |
Kilos- | all good otherwise Trixar_za ? | 17:41 |
Trixar_za | Yes, and you know what they say. Why do today what you can put off until tomorrow. | 17:41 |
Kilos- | lol | 17:41 |
Trixar_za | I'm doing better yeah | 17:42 |
Kilos- | good | 17:42 |
Trixar_za | I lost 9kg - still 9kg away from 75kg which is a 'good weight', but getting closer | 17:42 |
Kilos- | wow | 17:42 |
Trixar_za | Mostly just walking an hour a day, drinking lots of water and limiting my foot intake | 17:42 |
Trixar_za | Carbinated drinks are really bad - filled with sugar too. Not the good kind either - it gets turned straight into fat rather than getting burned. So I'm mostly avoiding them | 17:43 |
Kilos- | dupingping welcome to ubuntu-za | 17:47 |
