MarkDudehello JOSHUAPOT how are you doing? 21:57
MarkDudeIs anyone active in PH right now, or just folks to south?21:58
JOSHUAPOTI'm doing good, is this an English only channel?21:58
MarkDudeDi ko alam21:58
JOSHUAPOTHahaha ako din e, are you from the South?21:58
MarkDudeKonti lang Tagalog/Cebuano21:58
JOSHUAPOTAhhh I see.21:58
MarkDudeNorthern California21:58
MarkDudeWorking with folks in APAC via Fedora project, as well as Mentorship for cross FOSS Projects21:59
MarkDudeCagayan de Oro is where most folks I speak with are, as far as PH, I know more in Singapore, India, etc22:00
JOSHUAPOTOMG, I am just a lowly newbie Linux user, as in common user lang. I appreciate all the efforts Mark! Keep it up!22:00
JOSHUAPOTI am in Quezon City22:00
MarkDudeWhere else would you start?22:00
JOSHUAPOTI like that :)22:00
MarkDudeNear where they film Eat Bulaga22:00
JOSHUAPOTKinda near that place yup.22:01
* MarkDude has Pinay fiance, she loves Aldub22:01
JOSHUAPOTWow hahaha22:01
JOSHUAPOT*Pabebe wave22:01
* MarkDude is more Willie Revillame and tbh, Pasion de Amor22:01
MarkDudeYep22:01
JOSHUAPOTThis is my second IRC channel, I just learned about it through the Ubuntu 15.10 MATE welcome screen, I'm that noob yup22:02
MarkDudehttps://twitter.com/aral_balikan/status/65253998361866649622:02
* MarkDude started with Ubuntu, still helps with it. Fedorans (at least some do this)22:02
MarkDudePart of groups donating to APAC, as well as local San Francisco22:02
MarkDudeAnd we put Ubuntu on some, sometimes Mint22:03
MarkDudeFedora has sucked in last like 4 releases anyway. Our most recent does not22:03
MarkDudeYou can set up your own webchat.freenode thing and save it as a weblink you can send. This is how I did irc for 1st few years22:04
MarkDudeAnd itrs also changing. /,e has been arguing in FEdora that IRC is not always best way, 90% of Pinoys use Facebook, or Instagram22:05
MarkDudeKnow anyone that knows Baybayin, Mangyan, or Suwat Bisaya, writing scripts? I've been really into that for a while.22:06
MarkDudeIf you have any Linux questions, feel free to email me markdude  (at) fedoraproject (dot) org22:07
* MarkDude knows plenty of Ubuntu and others. Btw, the CDO group is able to help with Ubuntu also. There is a group in Makati City also, which might be closer to you22:08
MarkDudeAnd there is a new user in outskirts of Manila somewhere Ive been talking to. You have some local folks, not like you're in super remote area22:09
MarkDudeNot sure if you have bandwidth, but this is recent videos I made, as well as out takes, its not ready to be released yet.22:10
MarkDudehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZzJUyc6wtI&index=1&list=PLXaVhj1l5rqCtdEXkGuNDhoPCcMoY5K1t 22:10
MarkDudeAnd if you want to see some humor, you can see me "singing" OPM. Mr Suave, Maging Sino Ka Man, and even worse22:11
MarkDudeJOSHUAPOT, what is your favorite thing about Linux so far?22:12
JOSHUAPOTMy favorite thing about it would be that updates would not only update the OS itself but it would also update the apps.22:52
JOSHUAPOTNah, just kidding. Favorite thing about it is it's free lol22:52
JOSHUAPOT@MarkDude Sorry for the late response by the way, I forgot I could leave a message by using the "/AWAY" switch before leaving my keyboard22:54
JOSHUAPOTI don't know anyone who can write scripts as well as speak those dialects. To be honest I find it hard to find an active community of users here. Most of them exist only on forums and the common discussion would be Kali and aircrack and the likes.22:56
MarkDudeAnd for those sorta rolling updates of ALL the things, from what I know Arch Linux can do that.23:04
MarkDudeAnd there are plenty of local folks, the meetings have just not been regular. Bob Reyes is from Mozilla, though helps with many things, and speaks at events23:06
MarkDudeIf you were into Python, going to Cebu City would be good next month, but, there are other events. 23:07
JOSHUAPOTThat's actually my target, I want to be skilled enough to be able to compile my own install someday,based on Arch , only having what I need. It's too complicated for me to understand at this point. I am enthusiastic about it though. But right now, what interests me would be network penetration through Kali. It's commonly discussed on PH forums.23:08
MarkDudeOne of the things Im working on thru Fedora is helping with local Linux groups, with Ubuntu, Debian, and others. Its a teamwork thing. We have some newer users in your area, but need a meeting space, what is nearest University/College to you?23:08
JOSHUAPOTNearest wouldbe University of the Philippines Diliman :)23:08
* MarkDude is part of Campus Ambassadors, and CDO folks are looking for places more Manila to help. Also nice to have the direction flow the other way23:09
MarkDudeAh yes, they use Baybayin for UP.23:10
JOSHUAPOTThis might sound really and absolutely hilarious but I am such a noob I don't even remotely understand the difference between Ubuntu and Debian. Don't get me wrong, I did try to read up on this but all I got was that the OpenSource community somehow had a clash of ideals in the past. One group opened up to commercializing the distribution while the23:10
JOSHUAPOT other went against it. I don't remember the specifics though. Sorry for sounding ignorant :(23:10
JOSHUAPOTYup, not sure why you'll need someone who can write scripts and can understand those. Is it for documentation?23:11
MarkDudeIts not, Ubuntu is built on Debian23:11
JOSHUAPOTWhen you say that, are you referring to the code?23:11
MarkDudeAnd the issue for some is that Ubunu does not give back code thst it "takes"23:12
JOSHUAPOTOr is it a method like object oriented programming for example?23:12
JOSHUAPOTAhh yes, the GNU thingy?23:12
MarkDudeThere are some things that differ like Window manager and such23:12
MarkDudeYes23:12
MarkDudeAnd Ubuntu USED to use word Linux, sorta burries it now23:12
MarkDudeBut, if you want the truth, Ubuntu DOES create more than its ever taken from Open Source. It does this by creating new users, making the experience better23:13
* MarkDude started with Ubuntu23:13
MarkDudeMark Shuttleworth, the owner/guy behind Ubuntu has also been too cocky over the years, though of recent has been doing well. He is a really nice guy23:15
MarkDudeUbuntu also is ablw to have commercial agreements for drivers/apps and stuff that Debian can not, at least in USA23:15
MarkDudeFedora cant do some of these things that make it easier to use for License and other legal/geek reasons23:16
JOSHUAPOTI am currently running Ubuntu 15.10 MATE just because I am only working it off of a Hyper-V VM on a secured Office network. As far as I know it's the less problematic distro for accessing VM's over RDP in Windows.23:17
MarkDudeDebian is what they use on International Space Station from what I know. I have friends  there if you wanted to head that way at some point23:17
MarkDudeYep23:17
JOSHUAPOTI don't know anything about SSH yet lol23:17
JOSHUAPOTToo complicated for me at this point.23:17
MarkDudeIts ok, but approach security as a mindset23:18
MarkDudeNot a piece of the pie23:18
JOSHUAPOTI tried installing MINT as well as Elementary OS on a VM and remotely accessing it through RDP(xRDP) but I am only getting a gray dotted screen23:18
JOSHUAPOTYeah, I understand. If I am gonna give you a serious answer about what I like about OpenSource or Linux in general it would be security.23:19
MarkDudeIts part of as you learn, think of it even if your geek job does not have security in title, pretty much all do23:19
MarkDudeUbuntu used to have some security issues, but they have done really with some recent shifts. At one point they were mocked, now they are rocking it23:20
MarkDudeAnd ignor folks that have a my Distro can beat up your Distro thing. Its a Penguin Family thing23:21
JOSHUAPOTI don't get why Ubuntu would get mocked over security issues. Is it part of the SSL heartbleed bug that became an issue a while back23:21
JOSHUAPOTYup, there's just a lot to learn. I am trying not to bite off more than I can chew.23:22
MarkDudeLong story. (Ive had some rather public debates with Mark S and Ubuntu. We're cool now)23:22
JOSHUAPOTI've never been in one of those. I would love to be in one though.23:23
JOSHUAPOTWhat's with the Python event that you mentioned?23:23
JOSHUAPOTI just googled it, I am not skilled enough to handle such event. My head would burst hahaha23:24
MarkDudeYes23:24
MarkDudeThe 1st time23:24
JOSHUAPOTSorry, I meant disconnected.me'd it23:24
JOSHUAPOTHahaha23:24
MarkDude1st time I went to Linux event, I swear they were speaking LIKE computers23:24
MarkDudeLike modems, making that noise and stuff23:25
JOSHUAPOTHahahaha, I can imagine myself just nodding my head pretending I understood a word they'd say even if I was imagining food.23:25
MarkDudeI now have like 10 years of doing Linux things, thats part of why I m doing videos of what it was like at first23:26
MarkDudeSoooooooo many things23:26
MarkDudeAy naku23:26
JOSHUAPOTDo I have to pick a specialty? I have heard of people focusing more on network and security, others in compiling their own distro from scratch using bits and pieces from other distros (not sure how this works/legality and stuff)23:26
MarkDudeI messaged Romar of ITG, the group in CDO, seeing what he think might work for ya.23:26
JOSHUAPOTI imagine if you'll go super saiyan and speak code to me I'd 40423:27
MarkDudeNope, pick what interests you23:27
* MarkDude does not code23:27
JOSHUAPOTWhen you say CDO, you mean Cagayan De Oro?23:27
MarkDudeMade point years ago that its better for me to learn human language23:27
JOSHUAPOTHahaha, point taken :)23:27
MarkDudeSo I picked Austronesian, and thru it, Tagalog, Cebuano, and how they relate23:28
MarkDudeYep23:28
MarkDudeThey have started groups in other areas23:28
MarkDudeItchy City also23:28
MarkDudeSorry Po23:28
JOSHUAPOTOh Makati hahaha23:28
MarkDudeMakati City23:28
MarkDudemakaTI23:28
MarkDudeNot MaKAti23:28
JOSHUAPOTYep.23:29
MarkDudeSo I tell folks I have a MakaTO City when I have an itch23:29
JOSHUAPOTWhat's with the hype when a new distro gets released and its running on a new Linux Kernel?23:29
JOSHUAPOTBecause more device drivers are included?23:29
MarkDudeGeeks like new things23:29
JOSHUAPOTOn point hahaha23:30
MarkDudeNewest is Fedora - as far as ecosystem23:30
JOSHUAPOTEven if it's just 15.0.0.1 over 15.0.0.0 geeks will drool over it hahaha23:30
MarkDudeAnd CentOS for enterprise things23:30
JOSHUAPOTEcosystem meaning? How the whole OS works in integration with all of its apps?23:30
MarkDudeArch can be on the edge of new, and fully geek would be an OS you make yourself23:31
JOSHUAPOTCentOS is like the OpenSource version of Windows Server 20xx right?23:31
MarkDudeKinda23:31
MarkDudeCentOS is sorta a public version of RedHats Enterprise software23:31
MarkDudeand has some overlap with server, its a great way to get geek job working with servers and stuff23:32
MarkDudeFedora creates tools for ALL of Open Source, part af why they say First23:32
JOSHUAPOTWhen you say RedHat the only thing that pops into my head would be how they categorize hackers. Blackhat, Whitehat etc. I'm ignorant I know...23:32
MarkDudeJust recently folks complained of something called systemd, Fedora made it years ago, now all of Linux uses it23:33
JOSHUAPOTWhy complain about it now then?23:33
MarkDudeRedHat is main sponsor of Fedora as well as CentOS23:33
MarkDudeBecuase their Distros/projects use older code, older kernels23:34
MarkDudeAnd by the time it came to them it was news23:34
JOSHUAPOTWhen you say sponsor, do you mean that's where the get funding from?23:35
MarkDudeMost of the time, you'll find geeks say horrible things, and its more of joke. Most of us are fine with using any form of Linux23:35
JOSHUAPOTYeah, most of them are weird jokes I don't even get. I mostly read them on reddit threads23:36
MarkDudeYep, its another reason I jumped to Fedora, they pay for things. Swag, and travel. I could have gone to Prague last year, and even New York, Los Angeles23:36
MarkDudeJoin a mailing list or two23:36
JOSHUAPOTPrague oh my23:36
JOSHUAPOTWhat drops my jaw in awe is just how something open to everyone who wants to contribute, modify, develop and even use the code on their own keeps on improving, innovating even. It's like the biggest miracle of the human race. Next to sliced bread.23:38
JOSHUAPOTIt's kept secure even, I don't understand how that's even possible. Maybe I'm just thinking too big for my feeble mind.23:38
MarkDudeYep, I give talks on it, that's my thing I mostly do Its a big thing23:39
MarkDudeAnd its eyeballs, people watching. Linux does have some issues, but proprietary things are not open, and dont relase flaws, and leave them open forever23:40
MarkDudeRedHat is like a 6 Billion dollar company23:40
JOSHUAPOTI've watched a video on Youtube, I think it's an annual thing. The video is called Top Ten reasons why Linux sucks lol and it talks exactly about it.23:41
MarkDudeThey make money, and give things out for free23:41
MarkDudeLol, prolly an Aussie made that23:41
MarkDudeI think I know him23:41
JOSHUAPOTYes, I think it was someone from down undah23:41
JOSHUAPOTIt23:42
MarkDudeYep, it was community he had issues with23:42
JOSHUAPOTIt's an interesting watch, I still have a backlog of the previous top tens for 2012, 2011 etc.23:42
MarkDudeNone of that would have been ok in FEdora, or Ubuntu23:42
JOSHUAPOTCan he be sued for that if he was from Fedora? I think he actually focused on them during the talk23:43
MarkDudeBut on the Internets.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ad6kHE-S1x023:43
MarkDudeIn theory maybe. But Fedora is cocky, only cares about logo copyright23:43
JOSHUAPOTHahaha, that made me crack. Seriously?23:44
MarkDudeAnd you know what, Fedora does have flaws, I've been trying to help fix it since joining23:44
MarkDudeI was recruited to help fix things, and take some of what I learned in Ubuntu23:44
MarkDudeYes23:44
MarkDudeFedora is cocky. We are the New York Yankees. The Lakers (when Kobe was better)23:45
JOSHUAPOTOh? What about Ubuntu, from a common consumer standpoint I can only sense things to go upwards for Linux. The distros are now becoming user friendly. I cannot comment on the flaws on the inside though since I honestly don't have any idea what's going on hahaha23:46
MarkDudeElite. But an elite that wants to include, and help others be elite23:46
MarkDudeUbuntu just works23:46
MarkDudeIt just works23:46
MarkDudeMinus a time when they were doing under the hood things, then Mint was better choice23:47
JOSHUAPOTFunny thing is Ubuntu or Fedora, Linux users have always been looked upon that way.23:47
JOSHUAPOTElite, I mean. Until Apple came along anyway23:47
MarkDudeBut yes, Ubuntu has huge growth possiblities23:47
JOSHUAPOTIs this because of how things are run in the background?23:47
MarkDudeSome of its sections show profit, Mark S is not quitting anytime soon23:47
JOSHUAPOTManagement side?23:47
MarkDudeUbuntu is Apple23:48
MarkDudeOr some of its goal23:48
MarkDudeIs to just work23:48
* MarkDude has iPhone, so Im a ruinous FOSS person23:48
JOSHUAPOTWhat's FOSS23:49
MarkDudePuppy Linux is a fun way to play with some stuff that just works, but allows more learning, you can run live CD, as well as install inside Ubuntu23:49
MarkDudeFree and Open Source Software23:49
JOSHUAPOTMy partner uses an iPhone, I use an Android phone because I like removing bloat by flashing custom ROMs, I spend quite a part of the day reading the XDA forums hahaha23:49
MarkDudeSoe folks say FLOSS23:49
MarkDudeYep, each has their own plusses23:50
JOSHUAPOTI tried puppy on a VM but I am getting collision detection issues for mouse clicks hahaha, I think it's best run on a live USB on a native machine not a VM.23:50
MarkDudeAs you learn, how impatient are you in waiting for results? 23:50
MarkDudeYes, and puppy can run on old old machines, just in memory, even with no hard drive23:51
JOSHUAPOTI am the type who gets more patient as long as I see a bit of the results that I am looking for. I don't know how to explain it.23:51
MarkDudeFor immediate results, small groups like BSD are like geeks of geeks, but the group is small23:52
MarkDudeSo you want groups that have some Community23:52
JOSHUAPOTAs I learn about Linux more, I begin to get really convinced that whoever wrote the Cicada 3301 puzzle they're from the community23:52
MarkDudeFedora, Debian, Ubuntu, and Arch have it23:52
JOSHUAPOTWhat's BSD? I see it a lot on distrowatch but I really have no idea what it means.23:53
JOSHUAPOTYou've just been my live Wikipedia of the day, I should buy you a beer. I wish I could.23:53
MarkDudeNo problem, pay it forward23:53
MarkDudeBSD is a really small group of folks using sumthin like Linux (details are geeky and relating to license) but they make code, its live in like 2 days23:54
MarkDudeArch has some ok folks, tho most of my dealing with them are thru FOSS Mentoring program with Arch Linux WOmen23:55
MarkDudeYou use Twitter?23:55
JOSHUAPOTI'll read up on it because it sounds interesting, they can be the definition of Elite though if unlike Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, and Arch they don't have an active community23:55
MarkDudeYes, they are23:56
* MarkDude has gone to BSD events. Its amazing how small but powerful the community is23:56
JOSHUAPOTI don't use twitter, the third person green script thingy is funny by the way lol23:56
MarkDudeFedora and CentOS may not have local folks, but can pay for travel for folks doing things23:56
JOSHUAPOT"Powerful"? What do you mean by that? Are you referring to funding or technical-wise?23:57
MarkDudeUbuntu tends to just pay for some23:57
MarkDudeas far as one person being able to make changes23:57
MarkDudeEach indivual has more power in BSD23:58
MarkDudeButwow, that can mean drama23:58
JOSHUAPOTI think the main issue if I remember it right from the video would be telemetry, they say it's against the FOSS code of conduct or whatever they call it. I wonder what BSD's stand on that is.23:58
MarkDudeAnd Im known for drama from years ago with Ubuntu23:58
JOSHUAPOTHahaha, on point about the drama23:58
JOSHUAPOTHuh?23:58
JOSHUAPOTMaybe they just didn't wanna let you go23:58
JOSHUAPOTLike Alden and Yaya Dub23:59
JOSHUAPOT<323:59
MarkDudeWell, public debates with Mark S23:59
* MarkDude like the Rogelios23:59
