[04:04] howdy wrst [20:24] TGIF [20:26] how's every one doing? [20:26] let's get this party started! [20:27] :D [20:27] * netritious takes off shirt, but realizes no one can see [20:27] >.< [20:28] can't unread it Juzzy [20:29] http://www.hax.nu/linux/improving-cheap-dvr-camera-systems [20:29] posted my dvr scripts to create thumbs n shit [20:30] nice [20:33] ffmpeg is the bomb [20:36] I've heard good things about ffmpeg. [20:36] Never used it myself, though. [20:37] hey bwmaker [20:39] Howdy, netritious [20:43] so what is everyone running nowadays? I'm on 14.04 with gnome? I think. It's not unity or KDE. [20:43] I'm pretty sure I installed with defaults then installed gnome. [20:52] whoops === netritious_ is now known as netritious [20:56] so I locked my screen to switch users so I could see what my DE was set to and got whole bunch of nope [20:57] Gnome Flashback (Compiz) [21:03] de? [21:04] i have a 15.05 waiting patiently for 16.04 to be released [21:04] DE = desktop environment [21:05] ah [21:05] ...15.04? [21:06] ya [21:06] ubuntu 15.04 [21:07] That's already EOL, mate. [21:07] ? thought it was 18m [21:08] http://ubottu.com/y/vivid [21:08] I too thought non-LTS was 18 months [21:09] well repo's still work [21:10] netritious: It changed a bit back. [21:10] ah [21:10] as long as they dont move repos to old-releases heh [21:11] upgrading to wily to be safe [21:11] Also while the repos might work, they don't get updated. So you likely still are affected by the glibc bug. [21:11] amungst other bugs [21:11] I just use it for my chef development [21:12] I think I've been out of the loop by sticking to LTS [21:12] although personally, I've never had much luck with the non-LTS versions [21:12] jeez wtf [21:12] Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS [21:12] Trusty Tahr [21:12] Changes [21:12] August 6, 2015 [21:12] HWE August 2016 [21:12] 2 years until eol?! [21:13] I always break something I can't figure out how to fix with non-LTS lol [21:13] we're moving quickly to fully automating out spinups and stuff [21:13] nice [21:14] did you roll your own or what tools are you using Juzzy? [21:14] netritious: Hah, I never stick to LTS on desktops, and even on the server I've supplemented it. [21:15] Unit193: I'm sure it's just me since most i know run current, LTS or not, and have no problems. [21:42] I'm still on 14.04 because the wpa supplicant was upgraded afterward and basically broke all wifi at work. :-( [21:42] I couldn't figure out how to downgrade it successfully, either. [21:45] I strongly dislike it when I run into those problems heh [21:49] I like my OS to just work. [21:49] I have many hobbies I enjoy and spending time fixing computers isn't one of them. [21:53] It doesn't matter though. Family dropped off borked Windows 8 laptop. Said no to Linux. :/ [22:00] Boo. [22:04] I know. [22:04] netritious: ya rolled out own, I'm considering writing a book on it but half will change before I could complete it [22:05] our* [22:12] nice. did you go OpenStack? VMware? No wait, AWS! :D [22:17] last 2 [22:29] very cool [22:31] I just upgraded to workstation 12. I'm a little disappointed that support for linux and Unity mode is now deprecated. [22:32] netritious: My main OS is osx. I run a lot of stuff in virtual box. After years of linux as my main os I got tired of constantly making it work [22:33] My vps runs Ubuntu 14.04 which is fine with me. I'm trying out FreeBSD and PC-BSD atm [22:35] minasota: the last time I owned an apple was when I played Oregon Trail, Where in the World is Carmen Sandiago(?), and learned BASIC heh [22:36] heh, you've got dysentery [22:36] lol [22:36] did I just read freebsd? [22:36] I loved that game. I remember playing it on an AppleII I believe, in elementary school [22:37] yeah [22:37] oh s%^&, about to be some bromance up in here [22:38] unless you are a woman and then we just have to be good freinds j/k of course [22:38] I have had a very long on and off again love affair with freebsd [22:39] I'm still learning it but I like what I see so far. It just seems to make sense to me [22:39] it's a study for certain, but totally worth it when configured properly [22:40] yeah, it seems to be more mature (not sure if that's the right word) than linux. Different thinking I suppose [22:41] Better structured and documented maybe? Hard to describe. But I like it [22:42] no, you've nailed it on the head. [22:43] I used to hang out at #freebsdhelp on efnet a really really long time ago. [22:44] I mentioned this before, but I like the implementation of "jails" [22:44] It goes beyond chroot environments [22:44] the original virtual environment [22:46] 10.2 has added some features to it. I've been reading the "handbook" like a kid with a new toy [22:47] but yeah, pretty cool virtual environment that is more secure [22:47] I don't like how slowly new wireless drivers for AP mode are implemented though. [22:47] yeah, that was one of the first things I researched. At some point I want to make a full transition [22:48] Sounds crazy to ditch osx for bsd... but I like the freedom I suppose [22:48] are you using binary packages with pkg_add, or are you using ports/portage? [22:49] both, I used ports to pull some *nix stuff I like to use. I know jack about vi or vim. I needed nano lol [22:50] lol [22:50] and pc-updatemanger I think it the other? [22:51] Sounds new, but it's been some years for me. [22:52] I run pfSense, and have for years, and that's the closest thing to freebsd I have around. [22:52] http://web.pcbsd.org/doc-archive/10.2/html/update.html#using-the-cli-pkg-utilities look at 7.3.3. Manual Updates (CLI Method) [22:55] I cut my teeth on PC-BSD since it's FeeBSD with a gui already installed [22:55] Now I'm using FreeBSD and going thru creating the environment on my own. [23:36] oh nice...10.1 supports UEFI. Didn't know. [23:41] yeah, so, "technically" I can install on a mackbook pro I have that is "old"
