[07:52] <MooDoo> morning all
[07:56] <popey> oooh, just managed to crash chrome in a new and interesting wa
[07:56] <popey> *way
[07:57] <popey> go to a site like youtube where you can upload files, click upload, get a file dialog, leave that there, looking at a file, without uploading. Open terminal, rename the file. chrome dies :)
[07:57] <SuperMatt> interesting
[07:58] <davmor2> Morning all
[07:59] <SuperMatt> morning
[08:31]  * knightwise has been asked for a speaking gig at a MAJOR multinational
[08:31] <knightwise> no idea what to charge
[08:32] <Laney> 9999999
[08:33] <knightwise> yeah
[08:34] <knightwise> something like that
[08:36] <foobarry> "the going rate"
[08:43] <brobostigon> charge them the equivulant of a months beer money, :)
[08:43] <foobarry> which is zero for me :\
[08:43] <foobarry> but jelly snakes/haribo money...
[08:43] <brobostigon> :)
[08:43] <zmoylan-pi> 3 unicorns...
[08:44] <foobarry> 2 french hens
[08:44] <zmoylan-pi> then they can haggle you down to 2 unicorns so everyone is happy
[08:48] <bashrc> if it's MAJOR and they have the money then charge an arm and a leg
[08:48] <zmoylan-pi> 4 hooves and a horn, it's your big chance :-P
[08:50] <bashrc> although it depends on the situation. If MAJOR was microsoft then I wouldn't take their dirty dollars.
[08:50] <JamesTait> Good morning all!  Happy Friday, and happy Beverage Day! 😃  ☕
[09:00] <davmor2> JamesTait: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTjC6rxHz8g
[10:04] <davmor2> JamesTait: I'm right though aren't I and also a great tune for setting the mood on a Friday too :)
[10:11] <JamesTait> davmor2, I can't argue. ☺
[11:01] <foobarry> http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/www.fsf.org
[11:01] <foobarry> :(
[11:03] <davmor2> foobarry: ooopsie
[12:32] <knightwise> ok
[12:32] <knightwise> ready to dist-upgrade my os
[12:32] <SuperMatt> gl
[12:33] <knightwise> wof would you recommend a clean install ?
[12:33] <SuperMatt> what are you upgrading from?
[12:34] <SuperMatt> and did you upgrade that from something else?
[12:43] <knightwise> nope
[12:43] <knightwise> that was a clean install
[12:45] <knightwise> hmm
[12:46] <knightwise> dist upgrade dont work ?
[12:46] <SuperMatt> do a do-release-upgrade
[12:53] <knightwise> An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.
[12:53] <knightwise> This can be caused by:
[12:53] <knightwise> * Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu
[12:53] <knightwise> * Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu
[12:53] <knightwise> * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu
[12:55] <knightwise> could it be that Dell shipped a non final release of 14.04 on this machine ?
[12:58] <MartijnVdS> either that, or they (or you :P) didn't keep it "clean" :)
[12:58] <knightwise> define clean ?
[12:58] <SuperMatt> do apt update and apt upgrade, see what happens
[12:59] <knightwise> http://paste.ubuntu.com/16258085/
[13:05] <SuperMatt> maybe disable the steam repo for now, and try again
[13:05] <SuperMatt> if this is the first time you've seen that error, you probably haven't kept your machine up to date at all
[13:09] <foobarry> or the i386 one at least
[13:16] <knightwise> ok , so how do i throw out the steam repo ? i've removed the lists in /var/lib/apt/lists
[13:16] <foobarry> ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
[13:17] <foobarry> edit the steam one and put a # in front of the steam repo line(s)
[13:17] <foobarry> apt-get update again
[13:22] <knightwise> looks like that fixed it
[13:22] <knightwise> stupid steam :)
[13:23] <knightwise> nope ,
[13:23] <knightwise> another error
[13:24] <knightwise> W: There is no public key available for the following key IDs:
[13:24] <knightwise> 1397BC53640DB551
[13:24] <foobarry> http://askubuntu.com/questions/766883/there-is-no-public-key-available-for-the-following-key-ids-1397bc53640db551-goo
[13:24] <foobarry> sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 1397BC53640DB551
[13:25] <knightwise> thanx foobarry
[13:28] <knightwise> no error
[13:28] <knightwise> but no upgrade either
[13:31] <knightwise> or do i need to take it to 15.10 furst ?
[13:36] <knightwise> its runnig :)
[13:43] <SuperMatt> well done
[13:43] <SuperMatt> what version were you on before?
[13:53] <knightwise> 14.04
[13:54] <knightwise> upgrading now
[13:58] <SuperMatt> 14.04 to 16.04 does not need an intermediate update
[14:07] <knightwise> yep did that one
[14:11] <knightwise> as display manager , what should i pic (i'm running mate)
[14:12] <knightwise> gdm or lightdm ?
[14:12] <SuperMatt> what did you have before?
[14:12] <SuperMatt> because it makes little difference
[14:12] <knightwise> i'm not sure
[14:12] <knightwise> the default is lightdm
[14:12] <SuperMatt> was the login box on the left or the centre?
[14:15] <knightwise> center
[14:43] <diddledan> http://www.theverge.com/tldr/2016/5/4/11593084/dont-get-busted-copying-code-from-stack-overflow
[14:44] <foobarry> yeah lol
[14:44] <foobarry> even typoe'd it
[14:44] <diddledan> foobarry: did you run the code at the bottom?
[14:44] <foobarry> no
[14:44] <diddledan> doo eet
[14:44] <foobarry> its a rick roll
[14:44] <diddledan> :-)
[14:44] <foobarry> i let other follish people do things first
[14:45] <diddledan> I read the code and verified it wasn’t gonna blow-up my pc
[14:45] <foobarry> wasn't even tempted
[14:45] <diddledan> it’s actually pretty impressive
[14:52] <diddledan> there’s spoilers, but starwars the force awakens as emoji: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adgnlbRWo_Y
[17:50] <knightwise> anyone played with pip and 16.04 ? i'm getting the following errors : The 'pip==1.5.4' distribution was not found and is required by the application
[17:52] <MartijnVdS> knightwise: did you install the python3-pip package?
[17:53] <knightwise> yep , sais its the newest version$
[17:57] <MartijnVdS> maybe the thing you have wants python 2?
[17:58] <diddledan> joy: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2016/05/04/uk_government_10_year_jail_copyright/
[18:00] <zmoylan-pi> that'll get the private jails business a real kickstart
[18:00] <knightwise> i have python 2.7 installed
[18:06] <knightwise> the error i'm getting is that there are files missing in python 2.3
[18:07] <diddledan> this is good news: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2016/05/06/29_years_of_data_shows_no_mobile_phone_brain_cancer_link/
[18:08] <diddledan> also, probably doesn’t roast your nuts, either
[18:09] <zmoylan-pi> unless you're smuggling a *LOT* of phones into prison...
