[04:30] <lotuspsychje> nice1
[05:06] <lotuspsychje> have a nice1 guys, working day
[06:05] <ducasse> morning
[10:42] <BluesKaj> Hey folks
[11:22] <lordievader[m]> Hey BluesKaj
[11:24] <BluesKaj> hey lordievader[m]
[11:34] <lordievader[m]> How are you doing?
[11:40] <BluesKaj> ok here. and you?
[11:43] <ducasse> \o BluesKaj lordievader[m]
[11:43] <ducasse> lordievader[m]: any developments on your laptop?
[11:45] <BluesKaj> hey ducasse
[11:45] <lordievader[m]> Ordered a new one yesterday.
[11:45] <ducasse> probably the best solution :)
[11:46] <lordievader[m]> Today I figured, one last boot. Laptop performed like nothing was wrong. Until about an hour later.
[11:46] <lordievader[m]> Temps where quite hot, but nothing it hasn't seen before.
[11:46] <lordievader[m]> Ohwell, after six years it's okay to break down.
[11:47] <lordievader[m]> Yeah, indeed.
[11:47] <ducasse> six years isn't bad, at least you got good use out of it.
[12:29] <BluesKaj> well, my lenovo laptop is a little over 3 yrs old, but the screen is exhibiting red interefernce colour when I move the screen, like a loose connection or some such. If I move it certain positions the red interference disappears , but it's worriesome just the same.
[12:32] <BluesKaj> it wasn't expensive, reg price was $700, but bought it on sale for $500
[12:54] <ducasse> i assume it started happening right after the warranty had expired? ;)
[13:00] <BluesKaj> no, it just started a couple of months ago...warranty was only a yr iirc
[13:02] <ducasse> still sad. it might just be a loose connector, as you say, if it's easy to disassemble it might be worth a look.
[13:07] <BluesKaj> yeah, if it gets worse I'll probly do that
[15:36] <lotuspsychje> good evening to all
[15:37] <BluesKaj> hey lotuspsychje
[15:37] <lotuspsychje> hey hey BluesKaj
[15:38] <BluesKaj> evening there already lotuspsychje?
[15:38] <lotuspsychje> BluesKaj: hows debian life
[15:38] <lotuspsychje> 17h38 late afternoon that is BluesKaj  :p
[15:38] <BluesKaj> debian is running nicely atm :-)
[15:39] <lotuspsychje> cool

[15:40] <BluesKaj> 'morning nacc
[15:44] <lotuspsychje> hey Bashing-om
[15:44] <Bashing-om> \o lotuspsychje  .. See what the day brings for me :)
[15:46] <lotuspsychje> just jumped in myself Bashing-om
[15:49] <Bashing-om> Slow all over ubuntu support -- even +1 is non-active these days .
[15:49] <lotuspsychje> yeah, i think more action will follow on alpha2 17.10 Bashing-om
[15:49] <lotuspsychje> hey there brunch875
[15:50] <brunch875> heyao lotuspsychje
[15:50] <lotuspsychje> brunch875: what your busy with these days?
[15:50] <lotuspsychje> Bashing-om: when the gnome gets in by default :p
[15:51] <brunch875> lotuspsychje: computer engineering final project
[15:51] <brunch875> I'm eating my nails
[15:51] <lotuspsychje> brunch875: exam?
[15:52] <brunch875> lotuspsychje: it's like a super-light doctor thesis
[15:52] <brunch875> but I'm taking it way too seriously so it's getting to me
[15:52] <lotuspsychje> wow
[15:52] <brunch875> other faculties just write a 30-page paper about whatever
[15:53] <brunch875> in our faculty we also have to program some project
[15:53] <lotuspsychje> whats your project about in short?
[15:54] <brunch875> django web based application for role assignements in a nursery
[15:54] <lotuspsychje> complicated stuff :p
[15:55] <BluesKaj> hey Bashing-om, brunch875
[15:55] <brunch875> Not really, the algorithm itself is finished. I just slapped some kuhn-munkres to it after a small variation
[15:55] <brunch875> but right now I'm choking on the front-end
[15:55] <brunch875> HTML + CSS is a shitfest
[15:55] <lotuspsychje> cant help you there :p
[15:55] <brunch875> it's a hack on top of a hack on top of more hacks
[15:56] <Bashing-om> BluesKaj: /o .. Good to read you also . Looks to be that kinda day here .
[15:56] <brunch875> then I've planned three weeks to write the 30 page thesis, which should be a piece of cake
[15:56] <BluesKaj> Bashing-om, raining here, so i'm kinda stuck inside
[15:57] <brunch875> blah blah blah different SQL engines blah blah the one I chose is great because I say so
[15:57] <lotuspsychje> brunch875: its your last year thesis?
[15:57] <brunch875> yes, but is thesis the proper term? Is that not doctorate-related?
[15:57] <brunch875> this is just for the degree
[15:58] <Bashing-om> BluesKaj: Rain here yesterday . Beautiful day out ,, and I have the option to procrastinate on yard chores . .. I choose to procrastinate :)
[15:58] <brunch875> frying-sun weather here. Nearly 40 degrees in some regions of spain
[15:58] <lotuspsychje> 30 here tomorrows
[15:59] <BluesKaj> yeah, that's usually my choice as well ;-)
[15:59] <Bashing-om> Location: Heber Springs, AR ~ Cond: 70°F (21°C), Clear ~ Atmo: 53%, 7.0 mi (11.3 km), 29.81 in (1009 mb) ~ Wind: 8 mph (13 km/h), SW, N/A°F (N/A°C) ~ Time: 10:55
[16:00] <Bashing-om> - nice to have weather in irc terminal :)
[16:00] <BluesKaj> Bashing-om, care to share that command with us ... ...iirc we used to that in our mirc days on windows
[16:00] <BluesKaj> used to do
[16:00] <lotuspsychje> mirc scripts :p
[16:01] <Bashing-om> BluesKaj: It is a script . If ya want easier .. inxi can also do . Be glad to share the script however .
[16:01] <BluesKaj> something about ones whether station call numbers/ketters in North America
[16:02] <BluesKaj> letters
[16:02] <BluesKaj> sure ..script sounds good
[16:03] <BluesKaj> weather station ..gawd
[16:04] <lotuspsychje> lotuspsychje@RooTBooK:~$ inxi -w
[16:04] <lotuspsychje> Weather:   Conditions: 72 F (22 C) - Partly Cloudy Time: May 25, 6:03 PM CEST
[16:07] <Bashing-om> BluesKaj: Krytarik's script that I applied above : http://paste.openstack.org/show/jx13xKIktXbukOG7NckP/ .
[16:09] <Bashing-om> BluesKaj: If ya on terminal based irc client try ' /exec -o inxi -xxw ' :)
[16:10] <lotuspsychje> cool
[16:12] <brunch875> which IRC you you use?
[16:12] <brunch875> did I read terminal-based?
[16:13] <brunch875> I personally prefer working from a TTY, but I miss notifications :/
[16:13] <brunch875> wonder if there's a way to attach notify-send to write
[16:19] <Bashing-om> brunch875: irssi -- yes can do most anything in irssi if ya good at scripting .
[16:20] <brunch875> learning the DBUS API is on my TODO list.
[16:22] <BluesKaj> I use konversation ...cli clients are for emergencies, otherwise I stick my old gui client :-)
[16:22] <Bashing-om> brunch875: ^ lower level . irssi is intercepting signals and then .
[16:22] <brunch875> irssi has an API for signals? Nice...
[16:23] <brunch875> Right now I'm on hexchat, weechat was ‘just ok’
[16:23] <lotuspsychje> i like hexchat
[16:24] <oerheks> hexchat & wobbly windows
[16:24] <lotuspsychje> yay
[16:25] <Bashing-om> !o4o
[16:26] <Bashing-om> ^ just had to see what the o4o was !
[16:26] <oerheks> there is still no wobbly-tty
[16:26] <brunch875> wobbly-tty?
[16:27] <brunch875> hahaha
[16:27] <brunch875> the only thing I'm missing on the TTY is a proper web-browser
[16:27] <brunch875> links2 is kind of... rudimental
[16:28] <brunch875> I know the tty is capable of graphics since I've read PDFs on it
[16:30] <brunch875> also, links2 kind of interprets SIGSTP as ‘lolno’
[16:31] <BluesKaj> i like using the cli/shell asmuch as the next guy , but irc chat isn't one of them ...have too many rooms open at one time to be able to navigate
[16:31] <nacc> BluesKaj: how many is 'too many' in your case?
[16:31] <BluesKaj> 8
[16:32] <nacc> BluesKaj: by default, alt+1 through 8 in irssi :)
[16:32] <nacc> BluesKaj: i've got 20 or so, and have no problem navigating in irssi :)
[16:33] <nacc> it just uses the alpha keys, (e.g., alt+o goes to my 19th)
[16:34] <BluesKaj> not gonna start now ... I have konverstaion setup the way i like it with highlighting and diff coloured nicks etc , to help these old eys keep track of what's happening
[16:36] <BluesKaj> old eyes even :-)
[16:39] <nacc> BluesKaj: ack :)
[16:39] <BluesKaj> nacc, you guys are driven by the KB , I'm an old windows guiy driven by the mouse/cursor, that's what I'm used to from the early 90s til i discovered Linux, so some habits are difficult to change
[16:40] <nacc> BluesKaj: heh
[16:41] <lotuspsychje> i always loved candyeye linux
[16:41] <lotuspsychje> much more creative then other Os
[16:41] <BluesKaj> I don't consider it eyecandy so much as easier to read :-)

[17:55] <immu> BluesKaj, hi
[18:03] <BluesKaj> hi immu
[18:20] <immu> whats up BluesKaj
[18:24] <EriC^^> evening

[18:24] <BluesKaj> not much, busy cleaning and getting rid of some old electronics junk
[18:26] <BluesKaj> hey EriC^^
[18:26] <immu> hey EriC^^
[18:26] <immu> Goodnite very nite EriC^^
[18:26] <EriC^^> hey BluesKaj immu

[18:37] <immu> goodnite all
[18:37] <immu> take care
[18:37] <immu> peace
[18:37] <ducasse> evening EriC^^ \o
[18:37]  * ducasse yawns
[18:37] <EriC^^> evening ducasse o/
[18:38] <EriC^^> ran into a weird error while installing ubuntu 16.04 today
[18:38] <EriC^^> booted the installer in uefi mode, something else, made an efi partition etc, it added it to fstab and everything but it installed grub-pc instead
[18:39] <EriC^^> odd
[18:41] <ducasse> that sounds weird? curious what test ubiquity performs to decide on a grub to install...
[19:05] <BluesKaj> os-prober, to find other OSs, perhaps?
[19:06] <BluesKaj> or to find another grub already installed
[20:31] <ducasse> "i have a problem, but i'm going to select the parts of command output i'm going to give you", kthxbye.
[20:32] <nacc> ducasse: historical issue with bug reporting :)
[20:33] <nacc> ducasse: i have closed a number of bugs just saying 'please don't elide output because you think you know what i want to see"
[20:37] <ducasse> nacc: when we got to "...and many other things, but I think this is the most important" i figured he could also assume what the problem was :)
[20:38] <nacc> heh
[20:38] <nacc> ducasse: fair enough
[21:27]  * nacc learns why bluetooth a2dp fails to work by default on 17.04 gnome
[21:27] <nacc> apparnetly gdm camps on the a2dp sink
[21:27] <nacc> so stupid
[21:27] <nacc> two line workaround and a2dp works again
