ducasse | morning all | 06:23 |
lotuspsychje | good morning to all | 07:39 |
ducasse | \o lotuspsychje | 07:40 |
lotuspsychje | ducasse: i had to reinstall the trusty to xenial box update | 07:40 |
lotuspsychje | ducasse: totaly broken | 07:40 |
ducasse | lotuspsychje: not that uncommon, it seems... | 07:40 |
lotuspsychje | ducasse: new reinstall crashed on saving /home aswell so.. | 07:40 |
lotuspsychje | had to install fresh | 07:41 |
lotuspsychje | lets hope this was lasts 5 new years :p | 07:41 |
lotuspsychje | ducasse: how are things in norway? | 07:42 |
ducasse | i'm soon going to upgrade to yakkety, i never stay that long on one version :) | 07:42 |
lotuspsychje | ducasse: wich stage is yakketty in now? | 07:43 |
ducasse | alpha 1, i think. i usually wait until the first beta or so. | 07:43 |
lotuspsychje | !yakkety | 07:43 |
ubot5 | Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety Yak) will be the 25th release of Ubuntu. It is due to be released in October 2016. Discussion in #ubuntu+1 | 07:43 |
lotuspsychje | ah october | 07:44 |
lotuspsychje | !info linux-image-generic yakkety | 07:44 |
ubot5 | linux-image-generic (source: linux-meta): Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version 4.4.0.9134.37 (yakkety), package size 2 kB, installed size 12 kB | 07:44 |
ducasse | they're waiting for 4.8, i believe | 07:44 |
lotuspsychje | ducasse: yeah ive read an article they wanna ditch 4.6 | 07:45 |
lotuspsychje | im curious how unity 8 will develope | 07:47 |
lotuspsychje | and thrilled about OTA 13 on phone | 07:47 |
ducasse | i'm not too concerned about that, although the convergence thing would be nice | 07:48 |
lotuspsychje | yeah | 07:49 |
ducasse | i'd love a phone/tablet that could give me a full desktop when connected to a screen | 07:50 |
ducasse | just wish that desktop wasn't unity ;) | 07:50 |
lotuspsychje | that would be awesome | 07:50 |
lotuspsychje | lol | 07:50 |
lotuspsychje | ducasse: i really wish ubuntu would choose the way, users left more choices | 07:51 |
ducasse | how do you mean? | 07:51 |
lotuspsychje | ducasse: well you know like old linux setups, where you could choose kde or gnome etc | 07:51 |
lotuspsychje | in the setup screen | 07:52 |
lotuspsychje | imagine the tablet starts that way, leave the user the choice for window manager | 07:52 |
lotuspsychje | or i3 :p | 07:53 |
ducasse | the problem with that is that the tablets etc run mir, not x11 | 07:53 |
lotuspsychje | yeah | 07:53 |
ducasse | they _really_ should have gone with wayland, imho | 07:54 |
lotuspsychje | but i saw a kde tablet project once | 07:54 |
lotuspsychje | not sure if its still active | 07:54 |
lotuspsychje | lemme lookup | 07:54 |
ducasse | fedora 25 will run wayland, i read | 07:54 |
lotuspsychje | https://plasma-mobile.org/ | 07:55 |
lotuspsychje | would be so nice if ubuntu could be installed on every device | 07:56 |
ducasse | intresting. have you seen this? http://hawaiios.org/ | 07:56 |
lotuspsychje | lets c | 07:57 |
lotuspsychje | screens look delicious | 07:57 |
ducasse | it looks really nice, i don't know how ready it is. | 07:58 |
ducasse | there will probably be many options soon. | 07:58 |
ducasse | more promising news: http://www.pcworld.com/article/3109327/hardware/let-the-cpu-wars-begin-amd-shows-its-zen-cpu-can-compete-with-intels-best.html | 07:59 |
lotuspsychje | vivaldi kde tablet has been depraced.. | 07:59 |
lotuspsychje | cool | 07:59 |
ducasse | have you tried vivaldi btw? been using it for a couple of days, i like it. | 08:02 |
lotuspsychje | yeah ive tested the other day | 08:02 |
lotuspsychje | not bad, but prefer my chromium | 08:03 |
ducasse | i'm still trying to decide, but i'll probably go back to firefox. stuck with it since the days of netscape navigator. | 08:04 |
lotuspsychje | https://insights.ubuntu.com/2016/08/04/how-the-m10-tablet-can-save-you-luggage-space/ | 08:04 |
lotuspsychje | ducasse: yeah netscape was nice, but surely vurlernable as hell by now | 08:05 |
lotuspsychje | i wonder why they so proud about the Bq m10 tablet when stopped the bq phones to sell... | 08:05 |
ducasse | hehe, i wouldn't be running that or mosaic today, no :) | 08:06 |
lotuspsychje | thats really bad news for my business | 08:06 |
ducasse | otoh, there was a lot less in netscape that could be exploited, no js etc. | 08:06 |
lotuspsychje | ZTE also announced users want android over linux on devices | 08:07 |
lotuspsychje | ducasse: also true, was more back to basic | 08:07 |
lotuspsychje | but still you hear alot of exploits existing for the old style browsers like opera etc | 08:08 |
brushdemon | simpler tools had simpler hacks | 08:09 |
lotuspsychje | true | 08:09 |
brushdemon | more sophisticated tools have similar hacks however there is a larger footprint and more potential for exploits | 08:10 |
ducasse | if only flash would finally die... | 08:10 |
lotuspsychje | and more users using an app, more chance of hackers finding mass exploits | 08:10 |
brushdemon | well that would get rid of a few million issues :p | 08:10 |
brushdemon | that's also true | 08:11 |
lotuspsychje | http://news.softpedia.com/news/new-blackarch-linux-iso-lands-with-over-1-500-penetration-testing-hacking-tools-507485.shtml | 08:13 |
ducasse | lotuspsychje: i wonder how big a market there really is for ubuntu phones. most people who would want one are probably enthusiasts and hobbyists. | 08:14 |
lotuspsychje | ducasse: the only problem is the most wanted android apps everyone else uses | 08:14 |
lotuspsychje | and users dont search for security | 08:15 |
ducasse | lotuspsychje: yep, it would need some big name apps to have a chance in the bigger market. | 08:15 |
lotuspsychje | ducasse: but i can convince users, by telling how vurlnerable android is | 08:16 |
ducasse | there will be vulnerabilities for ubuntu phones as well. | 08:16 |
lotuspsychje | probably, but they will be handled much faster | 08:16 |
ducasse | that's true, the android update system is horrible. | 08:17 |
ducasse | well, it doesn't really exist at all. | 08:17 |
lotuspsychje | users dont mind security, until one day they personal pics are gone or shared | 08:17 |
lotuspsychje | when reality comes too close.. | 08:18 |
lotuspsychje | i helped few customers with stalkin/wifi issues in the past | 08:18 |
lotuspsychje | http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/08/zte-rejects-ubuntu-phone-proposal-says-buyers-dont-want-non-android-devices | 08:24 |
lotuspsychje | bah | 08:24 |
ducasse | well, i wouldn't want a china-made phone anyway :) | 08:27 |
lotuspsychje | meizu is chinese | 08:27 |
lotuspsychje | but if its broken and you have to send back to china : | | 08:28 |
lotuspsychje | if one day ubuntu-touch will be installable on more devices itl get interesting | 08:30 |
ducasse | the m10 looks really nice, though. making it possible to install ubuntu on more devices would be a good way to get more users. | 08:31 |
BluesKaj | 'Morning folks | 11:44 |
