| SuperEngineer | SebthreeBQM10HD: what? you didn't recieve the secret address posted here while you were away? | 10:28 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | SuperEngineer, uhmm a secret address for what? | 10:29 |
| SuperEngineer | well, if you persist in doing "it" until "it" was over... | 10:29 |
| SuperEngineer | a secret address for your email | 10:30 |

| diddledan | something is wonky with my ubuntu install. shortly after bootup it loses it's ipv4 address but retains ipv6. Telling network manager to reconnect the interface regains the ipv4 and the network connection then stays up until I reboot | 16:38 |

| diddledan | lol, Microsoft have a cute penguin in the Skype for Linux about box: https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/lmYvb66S/the%20skype%20linux%20about%20box | 17:43 |
| zmoylan-pi | trying to reclaim the oppositions icon... | 17:44 |
| * penguin42 is sure he's seen that penguin somewhere before | 17:52 | |
| zmoylan-pi | don't they all look the same? | 17:56 |
| penguin42 | not to penguins | 17:57 |
| zmoylan-pi | well... you would say that... :-P | 17:58 |
| SebthreeBQM10HD | hi | 19:23 |
| directhex | zmoylan-pi: i hate to point it out, but the creator of tux works for microsoft, so "reclaim"? | 19:32 |
| directhex | also, yes, that skype about box penguin is my everything | 19:32 |
| zmoylan-pi | a lot of linux/foss developers have/currently worked for ms... their work doesn't automatically belong to ms because of that | 19:33 |
| ali1234 | tux shows up in some weird places | 19:47 |
| zmoylan-pi | i got a penguin pez dispenser for a mate who uses linux at work in a mostly ms shop. he loves it | 19:48 |
| zmoylan-pi | bonus is he's vegetarian and it's one of the few sweets that is kosher with that... | 19:49 |
| ali1234 | http://i.imgur.com/kqPwtss.png | 19:53 |
| ali1234 | that's clearly the larry ewing tux | 19:54 |
| zmoylan-pi | i have a dog toy squeaky penguin that i use for pub meetups. always flushes out the linux heads. | 19:54 |

| zmoylan-pi | a lot of people throw out computers when they get infected... i know a lot of unix users who got their hardware that way... | 20:55 |
| shivers | hey! I know that nick from another channel zmoylan-pi :) | 20:59 |
| shivers | Didn't know you could be found here too | 21:00 |
| zmoylan-pi | i hang out in a few channels on a couple of irc servers | 21:05 |
| shivers | Apparently so. Well so do I when it comes to it | 21:07 |
| shivers | I am configuring a new IRC client so I've found a few new channels to visit, hence my stopping by here | 21:08 |
| shivers | Also, I installed Ubuntu on a new box I built this weekend | 21:08 |
| popey | welcome to the madhouse | 21:08 |
| shivers | Thanks, I think | 21:09 |
| zmoylan-pi | oooh quassel.... haven't used that on in ages... | 21:09 |
| shivers | Yup. New to me | 21:09 |
| zmoylan-pi | i used it when i had mac, windows and linux at same time as the client worked on all 3 | 21:09 |
| shivers | I planned on using what I know, weechat and tmux or screen | 21:09 |
| shivers | Mmm. I have all 3 of those OS's running right now | 21:09 |
| zmoylan-pi | so there was no mental gymnastics when swapping os for a task | 21:10 |
| shivers | Windows for gaming, mac for mobility, and now Ubuntu | 21:10 |
| zmoylan-pi | meanwhile my pi keeps on pi....ing | 21:10 |
| shivers | heh | 21:10 |
| zmoylan-pi | though my lowest client isn't the pi but my nokia dumbphone with a java irc client on it for mobile use | 21:11 |
| shivers | Gosh. That's old skool | 21:12 |
| zmoylan-pi | when i tried irc on an android phone i could run down the battery a lot by using irc for an hour or two. the nokia lasts days in irc if i leave it... | 21:13 |
| zmoylan-pi | and it doubles as a +1 bludgeon weapon in a zombie apocalypse... | 21:14 |
| shivers | that's always handy | 21:14 |
| zmoylan-pi | or skynet sending terminators so it's a twofer :-P | 21:14 |
| shivers | Not sure a Nokia is the preferred weapon against a Terminator, but I'm willing to let you test it | 21:15 |
| zmoylan-pi | or assembling ikea furniture that needs a panel pin banged in... :-D | 21:15 |
| zmoylan-pi | drop nokia in sock, beat the bejezus out of a terminator. easy peasy :-) | 21:16 |
| shivers | Sounds like you have it all planned. | 21:16 |
| shivers | So... to be slightly on-topic. Is there anything I need to know about Ubuntu? I haven't used linux at all in a couple years now. Started with slack in early 90s tho and has used *nixes a lot over the years | 21:17 |
| shivers | I am brushing up on apt commands, but besides that I'm not sure what I need to know | 21:18 |
| zmoylan-pi | ubuntu is still a great distro. if you don't like the unity desktop try xubuntu which is more win2000 windows classic themed, on a ancient system try lubuntu as it uses less resources for shiny whizz bang effects | 21:18 |
| zmoylan-pi | other that that it just works | 21:19 |
| shivers | I am not all that fuzzed about the looks of a desktop environment as long as I get hold of a decent terminal client | 21:19 |
| zmoylan-pi | as long as you don't try and install it on a lenovo system running windows signature edition... :-P | 21:19 |
| shivers | hehe | 21:20 |
| shivers | That stirred up twitter for sure | 21:20 |
| zmoylan-pi | well, it's linux, if you don't like a terminal client there'll be another one along in a minute | 21:20 |
| shivers | Mmm. True enough | 21:20 |
| shivers | I installed 16.04 LTS on this one. Didn't research the best flavour in advance, but this looks decent | 21:21 |
| zmoylan-pi | there's been some hullaballoo over systemd but it seems to have died down a bit | 21:27 |
| shivers | Yeah. I followed that at a distance. Lots of chatter about systemd in archlinux circles. That was the last linux OS I used. | 21:29 |
| shivers | A definite departure from the BSD roots | 21:30 |
