[00:00] <daftykins> two quad cores with 8GB RAM, could be good to get some console only pals into PC gaming if we ever switch!

[01:10] <SebthreeBQM10HD> hi
[04:34] <mapps> hi
[08:21] <brobostigon> morning boys and girls.
[16:30] <DJones> popey: I mentioned that Anatine twitter client the other day, been trying it out today and I'm impressed, I'd put it the top of the list for standalone twitter clients on Ubuntu
[16:56] <diddledan> DJones: it looks like it's mostly just a wrapper around twitter.com
[16:59] <DJones> Yeah thats how I understand it as well, but seems better than most
[17:02] <DJones> diddledan: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/07/anatine-desktop-twitter-app-electron
[17:02] <DJones> Despite looking every inch the desktop app Anatine is — don’t groan — an Electron-based wrapper around the mobile Twitter website.
[18:09] <webpigeon> anyone know why all of the apt-get surgestions now only read apt: "ie. Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them."?
[18:11] <mapps> hi
[18:11] <webpigeon> hi o/
[18:53] <SuperEngineer> Last night I upgraded 14.04 to 16.04 - easiest & non-hassle of all the Ubuntu upgrades so far.  Very pleased, congrats to all involved - and double thanks to all the bug hunters from 16.04 allowing 16.04.1
[18:56] <SuperEngineer> only "problems" encountered - old printer driver said incorrect configuration" and would'nt allow printing.  So I readded the printer, off the system went to find me an updaated driver, down;oaded, installed, printing working agsin... s'imples. Thank you all.
[18:58] <penguin42> SuperEngineer: Out of curiosity what was the printer?
[18:59] <SuperEngineer> [even had an unexpected "resiliance test" when 1 hout after upgrade completed and I was using the system... total area wide instant power cut!  - restarted system this morning.... perfek!  ;-)
[18:59] <SuperEngineer> penguin42: printer was/is Epson XP 412
[19:00] <penguin42> SuperEngineer: Was that an Ubuntu standard driver or one that was installed from an Epson site/disk?
[19:01] <SuperEngineer> Ubuntu found the driver at Epdson.. told me it was proprietory and gave me the choice to install or not to install.  One day I'll get me a printer with open [as in FOSS] driver!
[19:02] <SuperEngineer> *Epson
[19:02] <penguin42> ah ok
[19:02] <penguin42> SuperEngineer: It's actually getting harder; latest Samsung wouldn't work with the open driver
[19:02] <SuperEngineer> that's bad news
[19:06] <SuperEngineer> And, things get better... at long last psensor now shows me hard disk temps... could previously only get these from disk utilty or command line.
[19:06] <SuperEngineer> both hard disks now displaying temperature in psensor :-)
[19:08] <SuperEngineer> [could never get it to do that before on my AMd dpu'd sys]
[19:08] <SuperEngineer> *cpu
[19:20] <SuperEngineer> Letter to powe company? "Dear power company, if you ever do that again - I'll 'av the lot of ya!!!]"   phew, that was too close to the upgrading itself.
[19:21] <penguin42> yeh that would be more interesting to recover from
[19:21] <SuperEngineer> penguin42: you have a wicked sense of humour
[19:25] <penguin42> oh yes, I'm truly evil
[19:28] <SuperEngineer> :-D
