| lotuspsychje | ducasse: ermm, dont know the exact english word..iceballs falling out of the sky? | 06:40 |
| ducasse | 'hail', i think | 06:41 |
| lotuspsychje | ah thats it | 06:42 |
| ducasse | i sort of suspected that was what you meant :) | 06:43 |
| lotuspsychje | :p | 06:43 |
| lordievader | Many languages are alike :P | 06:47 |
| ducasse | we call it 'hagl', so only one letter different | 06:49 |
| lotuspsychje | ducasse: one day we had hail so big as tennisball, it ruined half of belgium | 06:55 |
| lotuspsychje | welcome sebsebseb | 07:04 |
| lotuspsychje | sebsebseb: most active volunteers gathered here to serve #ubuntu as good as possible | 07:04 |
| sebsebseb | yeah I been here once or twice before, so oh yeah this channel again | 07:04 |
| lotuspsychje | lol | 07:04 |
| lotuspsychje | this is where the magic happens | 07:06 |
| sebsebseb | lotuspsychje: maybe sometimes | 07:19 |
| lotuspsychje | sebsebseb: read that article on lxer | 07:31 |
| sebsebseb | link? | 07:31 |
| sebsebseb | lotuspsychje: | 07:31 |
| lotuspsychje | sebsebseb: i mean that url you just posted | 07:32 |
| sebsebseb | oh | 07:32 |
| sebsebseb | but that wasnt lxer | 07:32 |
| lotuspsychje | yeah i know, lxer gathers articles from all around | 07:32 |
| sebsebseb | lotuspsychje: I been linking sharing various articles on Facebook and trying to from Twitter | 07:34 |
| sebsebseb | mostly from omgubuntu | 07:34 |
| lotuspsychje | i like softpedia linux also | 07:34 |
| sebsebseb | and trying to share on twitter to | 07:34 |
| lotuspsychje | and lexer | 07:34 |
| lotuspsychje | lxer | 07:34 |
| sebsebseb | but loooks like dont need to for a few months now | 07:34 |
| sebsebseb | i like softipedia | 07:35 |
| sebsebseb | lotuspsychje: by the way if you are from a usually cold/chilly country such as uk, and you suddenly get a hot sunny day, when doing a small generally public aimed trying to get into Linux etx event, dont expect much of a turn out from target audience, looks like october should be better then, next time# | 07:37 |
| lotuspsychje | belgium is 9months cold yes lol | 07:38 |
| sebsebseb | lotuspsychje: yep and here | 07:38 |
| sebsebseb | sucks | 07:38 |
| sebsebseb | lotuspsychje: such ashame after all that facebook interest to, more than last time | 07:40 |
| sebsebseb | and paid adds had been running for longer | 07:40 |
| lotuspsychje | i dont like FB too much | 07:40 |
| lotuspsychje | and social media | 07:40 |
| sebsebseb | lotuspsychje: but in the end no one came in from that, but last time october that worked and quite a few did | 07:41 |
| sebsebseb | lotuspsychje: i dont either, but it can work to get people to events | 07:41 |
| lotuspsychje | true | 07:42 |
| sebsebseb | lotuspsychje: so we had people already on lug list, and one guy who came up | 07:42 |
| sebsebseb | who already used linux or had | 07:42 |
| sebsebseb | and a guy someone imvited | 07:43 |
| sebsebseb | lotuspsychje: would have been intersting chatting about unity to the non users | 07:43 |
| sebsebseb | well its good, but the company behind it well.... | 07:44 |
| sebsebseb | however this is open source so it can live on as.... | 07:44 |
| lotuspsychje | sebsebseb: im surely will stick to ubuntu, whatever future brings us | 07:45 |
| lotuspsychje | we think opensource, and we will find a way to config things they way we need | 07:45 |
| sebsebseb | lotuspsychje: ill start using it less again i expect, but been using quite a bit again last two or so years | 07:46 |
| lotuspsychje | i like apt too much | 07:46 |
| sebsebseb | lotuspsychje: if I want to use GNOME 3 Shell I would usually rather in another distro as i put earlier | 07:47 |
| sebsebseb | apt works yes | 07:47 |
| sebsebseb | slow though | 07:47 |
| lotuspsychje | i cant get used to other distro's anymore | 07:48 |
| lotuspsychje | too addicted to ubuntu | 07:48 |
| sebsebseb | why not? | 07:48 |
| sebsebseb | oh | 07:48 |
| sebsebseb | why? | 07:48 |
| lotuspsychje | ubuntu satisfy all my needs | 07:49 |
| sebsebseb | ok | 07:50 |

| immu2 | hi ducass | 09:03 |
| immu2 | ducasse, hi | 09:03 |
| ducasse | \o | 09:04 |
| immu2 | why does IRC tell me that my nickname is already in use | 09:04 |
| brunch875 | because it's already in use by immu | 09:05 |
| EriC^^ | /nickserv ghost immu <pass> | 09:05 |
| immu2 | yup thats me | 09:06 |
| === immu is now known as Guest47649 | ||
| === immu2 is now known as immu | ||
| immu | EriC^^, whats with this ghost thing ? | 09:10 |
| EriC^^ | if you get disconnected and the nick stays on then you can force it to quit | 09:14 |
| lotuspsychje | morron day :p | 09:29 |
| ducasse | isn't it always? :) | 09:30 |
| EriC^^ | they should make a bot that we can use to set bans (the regs) | 09:31 |
| lotuspsychje | that will never happen :p | 09:31 |
| EriC^^ | like it has a voting system, if enough people vote to ban it'll ban | 09:31 |
| immu | EriC^^: what happ? | 09:31 |
| EriC^^ | in case the ops are asleep or something, would be pretty handy | 09:31 |
| lotuspsychje | ops like banning too much :p | 09:31 |
| EriC^^ | (they'll never go for it i guess though) | 09:31 |
| oerheks | i like banning ops too | 09:32 |
| lotuspsychje | haha | 09:32 |
| EriC^^ | yeah that could happen then, democracy :D | 09:32 |
| oerheks | ~crazy .. | 09:32 |
| EriC^^ | it's the way it is in some multiplayer games | 09:33 |
| lotuspsychje | the idea is nice EriC^^ | 09:33 |
| EriC^^ | if somebody's trolling or cheating etc you get a vote, enough players vote yes, he's gone | 09:34 |
| lotuspsychje | ban cheaters :p | 09:34 |
| EriC^^ | :D | 09:34 |
| ducasse | some times there are as many trolls active as regulars, though | 09:35 |
| lotuspsychje | we got all kinds of goodies here: trolls, ban evaders,racists,botnet abusers, flooders,language spammers, pm comercials... | 09:35 |
| lotuspsychje | choose a pick :p | 09:35 |
| EriC^^ | yeah, it would be restricted to the regulars like us, all the helpers | 09:36 |
| lotuspsychje | its hard to decide who's a helper and not | 09:36 |
| lotuspsychje | we know were are but... :p | 09:36 |
| EriC^^ | and like it needs 3 votes of yes minimum, and it uses the majority of yes/no to decide (i'm still going on about it for no use right now :D ) | 09:36 |
| ducasse | the last couple of days i've seen a couple of new users both helping and trolling/just talking crap | 09:38 |
| lotuspsychje | yeah thats the hardest part | 09:38 |
| lotuspsychje | when ops arent watching, trolls being good & helping lol | 09:38 |
| immu | i wanted to know, how many of you have installed gnome along with unity | 09:38 |
| lotuspsychje | immu: ive installed gnome-shell on xenial right now | 09:39 |
| oerheks | installing a 2nd desktop is a bad idea | 09:39 |
| immu | thats my concern | 09:39 |
| lotuspsychje | yeah things get scrambled alot | 09:39 |
| immu | you can't remove unity and its a core dependency | 09:39 |
| lotuspsychje | immu: virtualbox test one you like, or real clean install a flavor | 09:40 |
| oerheks | i like the horror-pastebins when you try :-D | 09:40 |
| lotuspsychje | haha | 09:40 |
| * lotuspsychje gonna laugh around the corner | 09:40 | |
| EriC^^ | is it true mark shuttleworth had a meltdown on some social media? | 09:40 |
| EriC^^ | somebody in ##linux was talking about it yesterday | 09:40 |
| lotuspsychje | meltdown how EriC^^ ? | 09:41 |
| lotuspsychje | lemme check tweet | 09:41 |
| immu | EriC^^: what did you hear? | 09:42 |
| lotuspsychje | nothing like that on https://twitter.com/ubuntu | 09:42 |
| oerheks | DId he call someone an aardvark?? | 09:42 |
| lotuspsychje | wahaha | 09:42 |
| oerheks | just bought a dvd player with 5.1 on the fleemarket :-D | 09:43 |
| immu | oerheks: who buys a dvd player? | 09:44 |
| ducasse | oerheks obviously did. | 09:44 |
| oerheks | me, i wanted one a long time, but never wanted to pay more than €7,50 | 09:44 |
| immu | oerheks: they are obselete | 09:45 |
| * lotuspsychje uses a mediaplayer | 09:45 | |
| oerheks | immu yes, people trow away dvd's too, so i have 200 movies to watch | 09:46 |
| oerheks | .. maybe more | 09:47 |
| EriC^^ | lotuspsychje: immu something about him going after the hardcore linux guys, and how nobody supported unity, etc | 09:47 |
| immu | oerheks: njoy then, get loads of pop corn and soft drink and go gagga | 09:47 |
| immu | hmm, he had a post in google+, did you read that | 09:48 |
| EriC^^ | https://betanews.com/2017/04/09/ubuntu-mark-shuttleworth-insults-mir-gun-control/ | 09:49 |

| immu | ooo BluesKaj is here, well do well do, what about you? | 10:23 |
| BluesKaj | Hi ducasse, immu , fine here | 10:24 |
| lotuspsychje | hey BluesKaj | 10:25 |
| BluesKaj | except I can't figure why just transferring files makes the gpu heat up. | 10:26 |
| BluesKaj | hi lotuspsychje | 10:26 |
| immu | lotuspsychje: so about mark shuttle worth going mad, its about the google+ post i mentioned about, now he is quiet as they look forward to 17.10 development which has started since this friday | 10:27 |
| BluesKaj | immu, yup I'm already testing Artful 17.10 | 10:28 |
| lotuspsychje | BluesKaj: does it work? | 10:29 |
| BluesKaj | well, I'm here chatting using it | 10:29 |
| lotuspsychje | cool | 10:29 |
| lotuspsychje | the gnome transfer will be on alpha2 | 10:30 |
| BluesKaj | well. kde/plasma here | 10:30 |
| lotuspsychje | ill help bugging out then | 10:30 |
| lotuspsychje | bbl | 10:31 |
| BluesKaj | plasma 5.9.4 with the new 4.10 kernel | 10:32 |
| ducasse | it's using the zesty kernel for now, isn't it? | 10:32 |
| BluesKaj | if the zesty is 4.10.0-20-generic | 10:33 |
| BluesKaj | then yes | 10:34 |
| ducasse | yep, it is | 10:34 |
| immu | BluesKaj: ducasse cool, so hows kubuntu as of now? | 10:35 |
| BluesKaj | it works, but it's under devel so one has to expect bugs | 10:36 |
| immu | oke | 10:36 |
| immu | on VM or side by side BluesKaj | 10:36 |
| BluesKaj | no vms here, this is devel ...vms don't reflect a real situation IMR | 10:37 |
| immu | so its side by side | 10:38 |
| immu | so is the /usr folder shared? | 10:38 |
| ducasse | that won't work | 10:38 |
| BluesKaj | nope | 10:39 |
| immu | so its on a separate partition? | 10:39 |
| BluesKaj | I have separate / and /home partitions on both OSs | 10:40 |
| BluesKaj | Kubuntu and Debian...no Windows here | 10:43 |
| immu | ok | 11:00 |
| immu | welcome back EriC^^ | 11:05 |
| immu | how many of you are using this sound chipset Realtek ALC3661 | 11:05 |
| EriC^^ | thanks immu | 11:05 |
| BluesKaj | immu, that's snd-hda-intel driver | 11:18 |
| immu | yeah, do you have it on your system? | 11:21 |
| BluesKaj | immu, yes | 11:33 |
| BluesKaj | was busy for a few mins there | 11:33 |
| immu | BluesKaj: any sound issues regarding it | 11:47 |
| immu | you see, now. that my laptop is Alienware 14 with this ALC3661 chipset ok | 11:51 |
| immu | and using hdajackretask to set a pin, that restores sound to its proper levels | 11:52 |
| immu | hmm | 12:38 |
| immu | welcomeback BluesKaj what happened? | 12:52 |
| BluesKaj | my gpu is self destructing, suffering from thermal problems if I run any video or transfer files then it crashes my system | 12:57 |
| BluesKaj | I have a new gpu on order , should arrive sometime next week, in the meantime I'll watch video on the rpi | 12:59 |
| BluesKaj | this is an old pc and I'm not able to invest in fancier gpu than a nvidia GT210 due to the low PSU wattage, but the new gpu will keep this pc viable for a while longer til I decide to replace it....not a gamer anyway | 13:04 |
| immu | ok | 13:08 |
| immu | can't you control its thermal profile | 13:19 |
| lotuspsychje | your card has a fan BluesKaj ? | 13:36 |
| BluesKaj | no thermal control on this card, it's disabled by default , but it does have a fan strangely enough https://imagebin.ca/v/3KWFFP0WQI3Z | 13:46 |
| BluesKaj | it's behaving atm because no file transfer or video action | 13:47 |
| lotuspsychje | BluesKaj: did you try vacuum clean the fan? | 13:54 |
| lotuspsychje | BluesKaj: when did this start to happen? | 13:55 |
| BluesKaj | slowly , a few times while watching video a couple if weeks ago, now every 10mins or so while a video plays . the gpu heats up to 109C and crashes the system, and yes the gpy card is clean as is the whole pc ...gave it a good cleaning yesterday altho it wasn't very dusty at all | 13:58 |
| immu | BluesKaj: you are using a 8400GS nvidia chip how old is that? | 14:03 |
| BluesKaj | about 5yrs | 14:09 |
| lotuspsychje | BluesKaj_: could it be a kernel thing? other releases make your gpu hot also? | 14:45 |
| BluesKaj_ | it's worse on debian lotuspsychje | 14:46 |
| lotuspsychje | hmm | 14:46 |
| lotuspsychje | BluesKaj_: card dead? | 14:47 |
| BluesKaj_ | no it works , just overheats under load | 14:48 |
| BluesKaj_ | on my RPI3 now , so I'm taking a break from the pc for now | 14:48 |
| lotuspsychje | kk | 14:55 |

| immu | BluesKaj_, EriC^^ ducasse howdy amigos | 18:06 |
| EriC^^ | i really need to learn python i think that's used for xchat and bot scripting and stuff | 18:06 |
| lotuspsychje | EriC^^: mirc invision was nice | 18:06 |
| EriC^^ | python is pretty must know i guess, i've been kind of putting off learning it, it would come handy for sure | 18:06 |
| EriC^^ | invision is a script? | 18:07 |
| EriC^^ | hey immu | 18:07 |
| lotuspsychje | EriC^^: yeah invision was a sort of addon for mirc | 18:08 |
| EriC^^ | ah | 18:08 |

| EriC^^ | Bashing-om: good thanks | 18:15 |
| EriC^^ | how's it going with you? did the weather clear up yet? | 18:16 |
| Bashing-om | ducasse: All little bitty things . Still on the list: 1) lawn mowers, 2) 14.04 hard drive, 3) running the replacement water line between the well head and the house . Small things ! in comparison . | 18:16 |
| Bashing-om | Location: Heber Springs, AR ~ Cond: 64°F (18°C), Haze ~ Atmo: 52%, 6.0 mi (9.7 km), 29.81 in (1009 mb) ~ Wind: 4 mph (6 km/h), SW, N/A°F (N/A°C) ~ Time: 12:55 | 18:16 |
| EriC^^ | not bad | 18:17 |
| Bashing-om | EriC^^: Great weather .. Been out messing about to get one of the mowers started . will go back to it when my aggravation level is at an acceptable level . | 18:18 |
| BluesKaj_ | Bashing-om, I recall there used to be a mirc weatherinfobot . is there a linux client equivalent ? | 18:19 |
| Bashing-om | BluesKaj_: well that ^ is a irssi script . for a linux thingy for weather ' inxi -xxxw ' :) | 18:20 |
| ducasse | three weather scripts for weechat... | 18:20 |
| BluesKaj_ | Bashing-om, yeah, looking | 18:22 |
| ducasse | what happened with the mower, Bashing-om ? | 18:22 |
| ducasse | since aggro level is up, i mean :) | 18:22 |
| Bashing-om | BluesKaj_: the 'inxi -xxxw ' is very verbose . the lessen the noise output decreace the x's . | 18:23 |
| Bashing-om | ducasse: Well mowers : #1 has trash in the carbuerator, #2 has not been started since last summer and requires a belly belt . #3 sheeres off the stering sheer pin for some unknown reason . ALL fixable given time effort and money ! | 18:26 |
| ducasse | Bashing-om: ouch. well, good luck with that. this is a good example of murphy's law, i suppose... | 18:30 |
| BluesKaj_ | I actually consideed buying a push mower a few yrs ago after my old clinton powered mower gave up , basically fell aprt , the push mower clip the grass not tear the grass like powered does | 18:33 |
| * nacc has a push mower too | 18:33 | |
| * lotuspsychje gives his lawnmower to his father in law lol | 18:34 | |
| BluesKaj_ | I'm more worried bout the chainsaw , it hasn't been started for a couple of yrs, got some major branches to cut down this yr. | 18:36 |
| Bashing-om | ducasse: It's the will to survive ! Before the lawn follage takes over ! ( before the situation gets real out of hand - son-in-Law will bring over his mower ) /./ and yes is on the want list for a human powered grass getter = Household Financial administrator says maybe next week . | 18:36 |
| lotuspsychje | welcome ubot9 | 18:36 |
| ducasse | lotuspsychje: that's a great idea, lotus - "your daughter makes me dinner, so get out there and mow my lawn!" ;) | 18:36 |
| lotuspsychje | thats really whats happening, how can you guess :p | 18:37 |
| lotuspsychje | the bigger the meat, the harder the garden work | 18:39 |
| lotuspsychje | and me...chilling on irc | 18:39 |
| ducasse | Bashing-om: get a couple of goats and let nature do the work :) | 18:39 |
| lotuspsychje | lol | 18:39 |
| Bashing-om | lotuspsychje: " chilling on irc " ; aint live grand ! | 18:40 |
| ducasse | displaylink - is that screens connected via usb-c? | 18:40 |
| nacc | ducasse: yeah | 18:40 |
| nacc | well i don't think exclusively, but that's the most common | 18:40 |
| lotuspsychje | Bashing-om: surely is, and the friends are better on irc also! | 18:40 |
| nacc | it's a chipset in the dongle | 18:40 |
| nacc | and you need a driver for it in linux and windows | 18:40 |
| nacc | or it doesn't see anything but the usb ports | 18:41 |
| ducasse | ah, ok. | 18:41 |
| nacc | i *believe* there is some upstream work in this area | 18:41 |
| Bashing-om | ducasse: Now now wifey .. who is going to change the water and the habitant .. what me milk goats ! Give me a break ! | 18:41 |
| nacc | for DL daisy-chain, etc. | 18:41 |
| nacc | in theory, it allows you to seamlessly connect 10 displays or so | 18:41 |
| nacc | but the problem i ran into with the dl driver (from displaylink consortium) is that it ships a binary that helps stich things together | 18:41 |
| nacc | and it would peg the cpu all the time | 18:41 |
| ducasse | pretty impressive bandwidth | 18:41 |
| nacc | yeah | 18:42 |
| nacc | they were at least responsive, i got them to fix their driver | 18:42 |
| nacc | i also pointed canonical's kernel team to their github, to see if they wanted to pull it in | 18:42 |
| nacc | not sure if they did or not | 18:42 |
| ducasse | i dislike hw that depends on binaries, can easily leave me in a situation where i can't use it. often has, in fact. | 18:44 |
| immu | did i miss something boys | 18:46 |
| lotuspsychje | immu: you can scroll with your mouse | 18:46 |
| immu | already did that? how do i print my weather here? | 18:47 |
| lotuspsychje | Bashing-om has a script for that | 18:48 |
| immu | oke | 18:48 |
| nacc | ducasse: yeah and it's an embedded binary in a tarball | 18:49 |
| nacc | ducasse: it's really gross | 18:49 |
| ducasse | nacc: ugh. i was a heavy bsd user for a long time, where companies just laugh at you when you ask for driver support ;-/ | 18:51 |
| nacc | ducasse: yeah :) | 18:51 |
| nacc | ducasse: i will say the maintainer was really responsive | 18:51 |
| nacc | and it helped i could test it really quickly as a developer | 18:52 |
| immu | boys i tried suse and it had trouble finding my Hp wifi inkjet printer | 18:53 |
| immu | openSuse | 18:53 |
| immu | now on solus | 18:53 |
| immu | any comments? | 18:54 |
| nacc | ... | 18:54 |
| nacc | don't use opensuse? | 18:54 |
| ducasse | some companies are better than others. i guess multi-display generally attracts a pretty techy crowd. | 18:55 |
| nacc | ducasse: yeah, and displaylink is a technology in a lot of those new usb-c docs | 18:55 |
| immu | nacc, why so? please shed some light on it? | 18:55 |
| nacc | *docks | 18:55 |
| nacc | immu: you know you're in the ubuntu discussion channel? | 18:55 |
| nacc | immu: i don't care about opensuse | 18:55 |
| nacc | immu: but you did ask for comments | 18:55 |
| nacc | immu: and my comment was don't use it | 18:55 |
| nacc | use ubuntu, it works for me | 18:55 |
| BluesKaj | immu is searching for distro nirvana :-) | 18:57 |
| lotuspsychje | lol | 18:57 |
| nacc | ah | 18:57 |
| nacc | perfection is the enemy of the good | 18:57 |
| ducasse | immu: you need to hook up with CrazyTux, you'd like him. | 18:58 |
| lotuspsychje | lolz | 18:58 |
| BluesKaj | ducasse, that's not nice :-) | 18:58 |
| lotuspsychje | ducasse means crazytux also likes to tryout different distro's | 18:59 |
| ducasse | i apologize if that was insensitive, they just seem to be very interested in testing desktops, various distros etc. :) | 18:59 |
| BluesKaj | ducasse, i was only kidding ...crazytux suits his nick | 19:00 |
| ducasse | :) i just think he was inexperienced, a bit overwhelmed by all the options and kept looking for the 'perfect' thing. | 19:02 |
| lotuspsychje | http://phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=GrSecurity-No-Longer-Free | 19:03 |
| lotuspsychje | hmm thats why we had a grsecurity question this morning | 19:03 |
| BluesKaj | they pactically banned him in the ##linux chat | 19:03 |
| ducasse | lotuspsychje: jeez, the closed even the testing tree? | 19:04 |
| lotuspsychje | seems like it | 19:04 |
| lotuspsychje | nite nite guys | 19:05 |
| BluesKaj | some say phoronix news is not to be trusted | 19:07 |
| immu | nacc, i am now sailing in Solus Distro, but Ubuntu, is my primary distro of choice with Unity. | 19:27 |
| immu | And no matter which distro you are on, or flavour, we all should be united by commong goal of Bug no#1 | 19:29 |
| nacc | meh | 19:29 |
| immu | ducasse, may you introduce me to nacc , and anyways i am running gnome now, which all four distro's will be on Gnome :) | 19:31 |
| immu | BluesKaj, hey buddy how are you doing | 19:32 |
| BluesKaj | immu, well thanks, almost time for my nap...later all | 19:35 |
| immu | EriC^^, hi | 19:45 |
| immu | nacc, didnt see you earlier? | 20:01 |
| immu | ducasse, who is CrazyTux? | 20:03 |
| ducasse | just a guy who kept switching desktops and distros all the time for no good reason. | 20:06 |
| immu | ducasse, so i am the second one like him? | 20:07 |
| ducasse | more like the thousandth :) i think we've all been there at some point. | 20:08 |
| immu | the thing is no matter which distro i have hopped upon, i end up comming back to ubuntu ducasse , and also this channel is semi-formal so little bit of leeway should be allowed | 20:09 |
| ducasse | it isn't a very formal channel, no, but support questions for other distros will probably not be very welcome. | 20:24 |
| ducasse | well, this isn't a good place to ask support questions at all, actually :) | 20:25 |
| immu | ducasse, i don't think i asked a support related question? but just a general opinion? is that also not allowed? | 20:31 |
| immu | ducasse, by the way ? do i look like i am ranting? here :) | 20:33 |
| ducasse | looking at it, it might not have been meant as a support question, but it could easily be perceived as one. | 20:33 |
| ducasse | i think it was just a misunderstanding. | 20:34 |
| * Bashing-om likes having a channel to *whine* in :P | 20:34 | |
| ducasse | very important, whining :) | 20:34 |
| immu | see like i am solus, now, but still got Ubuntu, hanging out, i can try all other OSes on VM's :) | 20:38 |
| nacc | honestly, immu asked what anyone's opinion of opensuse is, i simply said don't run it | 20:42 |
| nacc | i've never had any use case that needs it | 20:42 |
| immu | i removed openSuse its boring nacc | 20:45 |
| nacc | immu: :) | 20:46 |
| ducasse | i haven't looked at it in over a decade, so can't comment :) | 20:47 |
| immu | ducasse, i looked at it and may never look at it | 20:54 |
| immu | i have always being a Ubuntu(Unity) guy but after death of unity, i have become a drifter | 20:54 |
| immu | goodnite gentleman | 20:54 |
| immu | see you toom | 20:54 |
| ducasse | nitenite, same here soon | 20:55 |
