tsimonq2**start*02:36
tsimonq2solo: what specifically?02:37
daftykins#ubuntu is for Ubuntu OS support02:37
daftykinsthis, not a support channel - says so in the topic02:37
tsimonq2^02:37
solonot asking for a walk through just a discussion on where you guys would go to learn more about this so that you could fix it yourself if you were a linux newbie02:37
tsimonq2but we're nice enough to help with trivial things02:38
tsimonq2solo: http://linuxpadawan.net/02:38
solothanks02:39

daftykinsweb servers, VPN servers...02:44
daftykinsno i use Kodi primarily.02:44
soloi was just looking at buying a vpn02:44
daftykinsthere is no need for transcoding formats on my network02:44
tsimonq2I use it on all of my desktops, servers, and embedded devices02:44
tsimonq2I'm a fanboy :P02:44
daftykinsthis is for business access into the office purposes, you're likely referring to VPN use to get around some restriction or other02:44
solobiometic embedded?02:44
tsimonq2and I contribute to a lot of different places in Ubuntu02:45
daftykinsheh desktop Linux is laughable :>02:45

tsimonq2LXQt is pretty solid02:46
tsimonq2better then Wind*ws02:46
tsimonq2*than02:46
tsimonq2then? than? *shrug*02:46
daftykinsi think all OSs are terrible in their own ways, we just pick up the pieces of the one we mind doing so for the least02:46
tsimonq2heheheheheheheheheheh02:47
sololike you prefer headless cli interaction for all computer usage?02:47
daftykinsme, i go where the work is paying - so tomorrow i'm looking at macs - blargh02:47
tsimonq2*blargh* indeed02:47
daftykinssolo: no i'm saying my Linux usage is server only02:47
daftykinsto claim a use of CLI only would be ridiculous neckbearding02:48
soloyou guys that make money like this is amazing to me im just a industrial pipefitter nerd i hate working hard physically lol02:48
solothats what i started to pick up on when i was hanging out with the hacker kids02:48
daftykinssurely that's a physical role then?02:48
solooh yeah its hard work but lets me think enough to feel smart for a blue collar guy lol02:49
* tsimonq2 is 14, so I don't have a job yet ;)02:49
daftykinswow and you were the one giving me a hard time the other day02:50

daftykinsi do freelance work, this client wants an email system change02:55
solowork off fivver?02:56
daftykinsi do not know what that means :>02:56
sololike a craigslist02:57
daftykinshaha, no.02:57
daftykinsi am not in the US or in the ghetto, trying to scrape together change :>02:57
solooh wow02:58
sololol i didnt mean to insult you02:58
daftykinsyou didn't, i'm just remarking on what i think the life of someone that looks for IT work on craigslist would be like02:58
sololol02:58
solothats funnier that how i took it02:58
solohello mxbosco02:59
daftykinsi'm sure like with most places in the world, a lot of small businesses here start out using just local ISP email accounts - this one has seen sense and wants something professional02:59
solosee thats what im wanting to learn03:00
daftykinsor rather at first they suggested having an apple icloud.com address instead - i'm saying no to that though and going to suggest companyname.co.uk followed by a proper setup for cross-device syncing03:00
mxboscoHello03:00
daftykinsso although i am really not an apple fan, to say the least, i can sort things out for people with them just fine03:00
daftykinsmorning03:00
soloyou dont work with jjfox.co.uk do you?03:01
daftykinsnot familiar with that domain03:02
daftykinsi'm not even technically in the UK03:02
soloso03:03
solojust to keep the discussion alive03:03
daftykinsgood luck with that, it's 4am here so time for bed03:03
solofrom my understanding these companies take the emails of clients and use them to send out whater info they need to03:03
solowhy would they need a dedicated mail server?03:04
daftykinswho o003:04
cfhowlett*** worked for Hillary *** comment dropped03:05
sololol now love for bengazi03:06
daftykins:D03:06
solohow do you guys handle backs up of your data?03:06
soloi currently do not have a back up system03:06
daxduplicity03:06
daftykins!backup03:07
ubot5`There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning03:07
soloim sorry03:07
daftykinsfor... what?03:07
soloi ment how do you handle the storage of your back ups? on a residential level.03:07
daftykinsnn \o03:08
sololike right now im trying to back up my wifes /home to google drive (10 gig) so i can wipe and install lubuntu03:08
soloi figure that has to be the redneck way of doing it am i right?03:08
daftykins(yes)03:09
daxduplicity can allegedly back up to google drive. i just backup to an offsite thing over SSH though03:09
solooffsite as in thumbdrive or something along those lines?03:09
solocuz the files started at 10.3 gig and i tar.gz it to 10 gig i feel like the backups will cost more in storage then just buying a bigger HD to partition03:10
daxoffsite as in not in the same building as me03:12
solois there a irc where the chat is just flying everywhere like when i was a kid but focused on ubuntu03:13
daxno, especially not when Europe is asleep and the US is getting there03:13

lotuspsychjecfhowlett: unity-tweak-tool is in official repos07:25
cfhowlett!07:25
cfhowlettI stand corrected then!07:25

lotuspsychjehey Bashing-om16:14
Bashing-omlotuspsychje: O/ ... Here we go again ! . you good ?16:14
lotuspsychjeBashing-om: great tnx, and you?16:15
Bashing-omOh, we find out .. se what is going on in the channel .16:15
Bashing-omsee*16:15
lotuspsychjeBashing-om: support has been pretty active today16:16
lotuspsychjeBashing-om: the 16.04 hype, very slow :p16:16
Bashing-omFrom what I gather the 16.04 release should be solid . I do not expect any problems we can not handle .16:17
lotuspsychjeyeah indeed16:17
lotuspsychjeim ready to !party already :p16:18
Bashing-omA lot of misunderstanding I expect when the users find out there is no FGLRX driver anymore .16:18
lotuspsychjeBashing-om: hmm good point16:19
lotuspsychjedax: ^ perhaps a trigger for the fglrx to radeon switch on 16.04 would be handy?16:19
Bashing-omlotuspsychje: IRT Praxis_of_Evil Might remove that old xorg.conf file and generate a new one .16:20
Bashing-omlotuspsychje: ATI/FGLRX .. in a upgrade, the release notes say the installer will take care of removing and installing the driver.16:21
lotuspsychjehi baizon16:22
baizonhi lotuspsychje16:22
lotuspsychjeBashing-om: yes, but not everybody might get the point, they cant install external drivers anymore?16:22
lotuspsychjeBashing-om: and try to goto amd site anyway, ignoring it16:23
Bashing-omlotuspsychje: Not for ATI in 16.04 . ATI is going all out to support opensource, and will not be providing proprietary drivers !16:23
lotuspsychjeyep16:24
baizonim on "linus working-style"16:27
lotuspsychjehttp://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/04/open-source-steam-controller-driver-development16:42
baizongood good16:43
lotuspsychjealot of stuff goes opensource :p16:44
baizonmaybe windows some day :D16:44
lotuspsychjelol16:44
baizonthen we can laugh at their shitty written code16:45
lotuspsychjebut but...MS loves linux :p16:46
BluesKajheh,  yeah sos much so that MS wants us to run linux in a container on their OS, fat chance i'll do that :-)16:47
* lotuspsychje neither :p16:48
baizonphi16:50
baizonno windows for me :D16:50
baizoneven at work no windows, just some coworkers are confused when they see it :D16:50
lotuspsychjehaha16:50
BluesKajthey talked android into using their OS to install android/Remix OS on a partition ...what's up with that ? What convulted method to istall an operating system16:50
BluesKajinstall even16:51
BluesKajok , errands .....BBL16:52

daftykinsah-ha, i was wondering if any interoperability would die today with the big SMB patches coming for Windows21:18
daxi know we're giving thought at work to disabling SMB1.0 on most of our servers23:04
daxeverything we have supports 2 except some craptacular point of sale systems23:04
