dpmtsimonq2, https://github.com/ubuntudesign/snapcraft.io15:27
SandeiroThe phone (Nexus 4) is completely unused-able !15:27
kz6fittycentahoneybun, so you built a powerhouse for mycroft15:27
ahoneybunwell since the retail uses a Pi2 the NUC is overkill kz6fittycent lol15:28
ahoneybunSandeiro: are you on stable?15:28
Sandeiroyep.15:28
SebthreeBQM10HDkz6fittycent, apparnatly the pro 5 has gone out of stock already15:28
Sandeiroall the phones are outta stock !15:28
kz6fittycentSandeiro, I used the ubuntu-touch/rc/bq-aquaris.en and it worked quite well15:28
ahoneybunno issues here so far Sandeiro15:28
ahoneybunthat would have the GPS working with the non-free driver15:29
ChloeWolfieGirlQUESTION: Are there any rules of content on the store?15:29
SebthreeBQM10HDSandeiro, yeah  that's annoying that BQ has the E5 HD out of stock to last time I looked, but could basically make ones own if.... :d15:29
SebthreeBQM10HDUbuntu versibion15:29
Sandeiro?15:29
ahoneybunthe E4.5 is still there15:30
SebthreeBQM10HDthat said out of stock to15:30
SebthreeBQM10HDlast itme I looked15:30
Sandeirothats crappolla15:30
ahoneybunlots of Ubuntu fans15:30
Sandeiro(the phone).15:30
ahoneybunor low stock15:30
SebthreeBQM10HDthe Ef HD kept on being in stock untill ike two months ago!15:30
Sandeiroyou see them on ebay.15:30
SebthreeBQM10HDI have looked on ebaby but coudnt find much there15:30
ahoneybunyea I'm sure people are selling those15:31
SebthreeBQM10HDwell new quality :d15:31
ChloeWolfieGirlQUESTION:15:31
ChloeWolfieGirloh15:31
SebthreeBQM10HDsomeone was trying to sell a 4.5 that was seocnd hand for cheapish though15:31
Sandeirogood question !15:31
ChloeWolfieGirlSandeiro: thanks15:31
SandeiroGhehe.15:31
SebthreeBQM10HDyeah Ubuntu Touch is quite nice really, but I guess not realy meant to have nearly every device that runs it anyway really.  w inks at popey and does a big :D15:32
SandeiroDunno, about you , but I find this Q&A annoying, to me.15:32
SandeiroIt's too generic.15:32
SandeiroWe're missing something.15:32
SandeiroJONO , JONO, JONO......15:32
ahoneybunplease no15:32
Sandeirospeaking about Jono - he's in consultancy now.15:33
SebthreeBQM10HDif Mezi usi coming out with a new one next month as remoured15:33
SebthreeBQM10HDthat will proably be pretty nice though :d15:33
Sandeironever heard of it.#15:33
SebthreeBQM10HDmayb one actsaully properly worth buying to, I mean the MX 4 from MEIZU IS a lovely phone, but the Pro 5 the hardware seemed a bit overkill for the OS really, which reminds me of a question I Wanted to ask15:34
Sandeiroask it, then.15:34
SebthreeBQM10HDQUESTION: The Meizu Pro 5 kept on being advertised as being the most powerful Ubuntu phone so far with powerful hardware.  However really the OS wouldn't currently use the hardwares  full potential, since Ubuntu Touch is quite a liimited basic OS really so far?15:35
ChloeWolfieGirlQUESTION: Do you think snaps working on the desktop will bring phone apps? We've only really seen that happen with facebook messanger on windows phone15:35
SandeiroQUESTION: With only 12 viewers, right now - Do you think these Q&A's have lost traction, since JonoBacon left ?15:36
tsimonq2oh no :P15:36
Claude_When/why Thunderbird 45.x is not already on Ubuntu? Maybe with Snaps ?15:37
ChloeWolfieGirlQUESTION: You've got snappy in a lot of desktop os's, are you getting snappy in phone os's such as sailfish and other phone os's?15:37
ChloeWolfieGirlSandeiro: how do you know theres not a few hundered people crowding around one persons screen?15:38
SandeiroGood point - everyone's at Dixons waiting to see if it's worth buying a Chromebook (based purely on this Q&A ;)15:38
Sandeiroalso .. India :)15:39
tsimonq2WINE plugin!15:40
popeyWINE is tricky15:41
ChloeWolfieGirltsimonq2: +115:41
popeyCurrently we can only run 64-bit wine in a snap on 64-bit ubuntu15:41
kz6fittycentthat'd be really cool though, ONE "app" with all the stuff it needs and no stupid WINE config15:41
tsimonq2let's be clear, I wasn't volunteering XD15:41
popeywhich works fine, but you can't currently run 32-bit wine in a snap on a 64-bit host15:41
SebthreeBQM10HDQUESTION: Do you think an Android app compataiblity thing will come to Ubuntu Touch eventually, or unofficaly anwayy at least,  for example maybe when Libertine can probably run let's say about 99% of DEsktop LInux programs?15:42
ChloeWolfieGirlyeah. wines difficult, but if some does good configeration and just snaps it up in a snap package, it'd be easy for a user just to install idk ms office snap and have it run via wine without issue?15:42
kz6fittycentChloeWolfieGirl, that's what I was thinking, the end-user would LOVE that15:43
ChloeWolfieGirlkz6fittycent: Yeah :P15:43
popeydpm: good answer!15:44
ChloeWolfieGirlQUESTION: Any ureadit updates?15:44
kz6fittycentpopey, did you want to tell them that Mark is watching and taking notes?15:44
popeykz6fittycent: haha15:44
SandeiroI just farted. And it was smelly. ;)15:45
kz6fittycentSandeiro, troll much?15:45
Sandeirono, too honest for that.15:45
kz6fittycenthmm15:45
* Sandeiro apologises.15:46
=== chihchun is now known as chihchun_afk
ChloeWolfieGirlQUESTION: Do you listen to many podcasts, if so what podcasts do you listen to?15:50
SebthreeBQM10HDQUESTION: A classic question if still got time:  First Linux distro and why and when?15:50
popeyoh, european history, that's awesome right now 😖15:50
SebthreeBQM10HDpopey, uhmm with UK leaving probably hmm ?15:50

tsimonq2but the thing is, school got me hooked15:51
SebthreeBQM10HDpopey, wel I hope you didn't and I was joking there, I hope ChloeWolfieGirl didn't as well :)15:51
SebthreeBQM10HDChloeWolfieGirl, yes and Scotland is likely to leave the UIK as well if UK does indeed leave the EU, when they get a chance Scotland will be out probably if that15:52
kz6fittycentScotland to leave the UK?? Wha....15:53
kz6fittycentsorry, that one caught my eye..15:53
SebthreeBQM10HDkz6fittycent, most of the people in Scoltand voted for the UK to stay in the EU, they aren't happy up there15:53
ChloeWolfieGirlkz6fittycent: they keep saying they want to but they never do15:53
ChloeWolfieGirlSebthreeBQM10HD: are they ever happy?15:53
kz6fittycentScotland = Texas15:54
popeyhah15:54
popeyChloeWolfieGirl: mhall119 there are guidelines on the store, which developers see when they sign up :)15:55
kz6fittycentpopey, ChloeWolfieGirl that said, there's currently a porn-based web app in the store...15:55
popeykz6fittycent: not illegal :)15:56
kz6fittycentright, just the age thing15:56
popeyyeah, we don't currently have that15:56
kz6fittycentright15:56
kz6fittycentI was commenting on mhall119's comment15:56
ChloeWolfieGirlkz6fittycent: yeah, need some kind of filtering, I'm fine for having them in as long as only people who want to see them can see them..15:56
popeygotcha15:56
popey:)15:56
ChloeWolfieGirlhow can an app be illigal?15:57
kz6fittycenthe was saying to be considerate of "that"15:57
ChloeWolfieGirlwhat you do with the app but the app itself?15:57
popeyChloeWolfieGirl: some countries have these things called "laws"15:57

popeykz6fittycent: it should :)16:00
kz6fittycenthaha16:00
SebthreeBQM10HDkz6fittycent, not sure if my message to you or not went through or not:  most of the people in  Scoltand voted for the UK to stay in the EU, they aren't happy up there16:00
kz6fittycentI don't think I got your message SebthreeBQM10HD16:01
SebthreeBQM10HDkz6fittycent, well that's what I wanted to put :)16:01
kz6fittycentah16:01
SebthreeBQM10HDNorthern IReland wanted to stay in as well for obvious reasons16:01

SebthreeBQM10HDkz6fittycent, yeah can get uh, but stuff like that as well as are well tech and eletricity and money controls the world really16:04
kz6fittycentagreed16:04
SebthreeBQM10HDkz6fittycent, where you from as well?16:05
kz6fittycentSebthreeBQM10HD, Tennessee16:08
SebthreeBQM10HDkz6fittycent, oh America16:08
kz6fittycentSebthreeBQM10HD, lol, the way you typed that looks like you're about to vomit...16:08
SebthreeBQM10HDkz6fittycent, apparnatly remian might have lost as well going by something on TV from the other night, a bit since well Obama was backing that as well, I mean like nearly everyone so set up for a lose.  but can't really blame it on him :)16:09
SebthreeBQM10HDkz6fittycent, no I am ok with America :) altough some stuff is a bit hmm,16:10
kz6fittycentSebthreeBQM10HD, just remember that the media and the gov't isn't a reflection of who we really are16:12
SebthreeBQM10HDkz6fittycent, indeed, but the results were close16:15
SebthreeBQM10HDkz6fittycent, nearly half and nearly half for leave and re main16:15
SebthreeBQM10HDover all16:15
SebthreeBQM10HDso about half of the people who voted in the UK voted out, and about half voted to re main16:15
SebthreeBQM10HDkz6fittycent, actsually done on votes that one to, not how many people by most voted in particular area's like  the elections here16:16
ChloeWolfieGirlbiggest turn out for voters in the UK for years now wasn't it?16:23
kz6fittycentChloeWolfieGirl, big deal I guess...16:24
ChloeWolfieGirlkz6fittycent: just a little bit16:25
kz6fittycentThe information over here gets convoluted about the issue. But I was under the impression that the UK was kind of "half-committed" to the EU anyway. Am I wrong?16:26
ahoneybunmhall119: would not call that winter16:35
