[12:43] greetings, it's about as idle in here as it is in #mugorg, but it's early. the rain is nice at least [12:44] Yeah, it's quite nice to have a T-storm blow through in the morning [12:44] though I'm hoping it pauses for a bot [12:44] bit [12:44] have to take my father-in-law to the doctor's office for his semi-annual head patting [12:44] not fun to drive in, although I'll take it over driving east into the sun any day [12:45] No doub [12:45] t [12:45] yeah I should probably go for a checkup myself. already sick though so at this point I'll just be giving someone money to tell me I'm sick [12:46] heh [12:46] Hopefully it's nothing too bad [12:46] pretty sure it's bronchitis, or at least that's what it started as in the beginning of the week, it's moving toward a full on cold at this point [12:46] throat is oddly not soar, which is nice [12:47] sore* [12:50] anyway, hopefully I kick it by Tuesday [13:03] Yeah, here's hoping [13:21] I was hoping to get the leaves raked before the rain fell [13:21] doh [15:38] <_stink_> anyone else having problems with the main archive.ubuntu.com repo for 14.04? [15:38] <_stink_> i get failed to fetch all over the place when i try to apt-get update. [15:59] _stink_: just now got fails all over *.ubuntu for 14.10 [15:59] <_stink_> can i take solace in your fails? [16:17] No. Embrace your rage. visit a local Canonical employee and let him know how you feel in person [16:19] <_stink_> you know it might be aptitude [16:19] <_stink_> if i apt-get update it's fine [16:19] <_stink_> if i use aptitude [16:19] <_stink_> is all brokened [16:20] <_stink_> all the local canonical employees are out of the country half of the time :P [16:22] and also the mirrors are working fine it's all your fault [16:22] hmm, is the OU mirror still an outdated pos? [16:24] <_stink_> i love aptitude, but maybe it's time for a breakup [16:32] I didn't realize aptitude was still a thing [16:32] I thought it died when apt-get absorbed all of its features [16:33] i thought apt-get was just a front end for aptitude and you actually needed to have it installed [16:33] maybe not === mrgoodcat_ is now known as mrgoodcat [16:34] <_stink_> brousch: don't disparage my dearest love [16:35] jcastro: is no one maintaining your/Ken's mirror any more? heh [16:43] I don't know what happened to the guy who came after me [16:44] but like, unless the disks got full, which I doubt, it was just a cron job using the exact same scripts as everyone else [16:44] I would expect it to either run perfectly or be totally broken, not in a half-state [16:45] though really I set that up in a pre-archive being CDNed world [17:02] yea [17:12] this article is making the rounds: http://time.com/4101340/dea-medical-marijuana-joke/ why don't journalists, I don't know, do any research and cite the many more than zero studies that show using whole plant (nug) marijuana is a useful medicine? [17:12] morning (still for me) rant [17:22] greg-g: Because 1) reporting is expensive, so they hire freelance writers to reword published studies, and 2) research is hard and expensive (see #1) [17:22] which is why your newspaper is mostly Reuters and AP reprints [17:22] Oh, and C) Because the public can't tell the difference between real reporting and ad-copy. [17:23] :( [20:05] my toes are still cold after the low of 37 this morning [20:05] these CA houses aren't made for this [20:08] What, no hemp socks? [20:08] heh, which reminds me: [20:08] 05:51 < greg-g> uh, this is my neighbor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9OVom73NNc [20:08] 05:52 < greg-g> he no longer does that work, which is a whole story in and of itself [20:08] 05:52 < greg-g> Full documentary at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Owjmv3hV-a8 [21:30] hello [22:20] howdy [22:28] I'll be back again; date night is a 'go' apparently [22:29] farewell
