Hey lotuspsychje :) [04:13] hey hey Bashing-om [04:43] gnite all [06:21] hi all [09:29] howdy folks [09:47] morning BluesKaj [09:47] 'Morning ducasse [09:48] dumped debian switched to kde-neon on the spare hdd [09:49] what do you think of it? didn't it have problems before? [10:05] ducasse, debian is fine, but I'm not gonna an OS with idiots running their support chat [10:05] use [10:06] i heard you said they were being a bit weird, but isn't that a common problem in the linux community? [10:06] or allows idiots to run their support chat [10:09] not that common in my experience, very few actually, only debian and arch supports come to mind [10:10] there are nutters , but these guys were off their rockers in my opnion. [10:12] i've heard arch support was bad, but haven't used it yet - the wiki normally provides answers. but i agree with you, saying 'hi' shouldn't be a capital offence. [10:13] yup [10:14] maybe you came in at a bad moment :) [10:15] arch support was more elitist and insulting to new users, like kids in a playground with new ball , no one else was allowed to play [10:16] well the whole debian chat experience wasn't good, it was also immature and silly [10:17] that's basically what i've heard (about arch support), but imagined it was more a 'rtfm' thing.. [10:17] btw, you don't use netflix, do you? any idea what a good solution is for us kodi users to get access? do we need to get a chromecast or something? [10:18] *kodi/rpi [10:19] ducasse, used netflix a couple of yrs ago when my daughter let us sue her pw, it needs a browser like chrome or the new FF [10:19] it ran fine in chrome [10:21] yes, or something with an app, which was more what i was thinking of. i want access on my non-smart tv... [10:23] i'll probably just get a chromecast and use the tablet, as it's likely the cheapest option. [10:23] daftykins: any opinions? ^^ [10:25] ducasse, yes,.,my tv is also a non smart, and the dvi to hdmi connection from this old pc works well [10:27] my setup here is a basic home theater with video and audio fairly well integrated with the pc [10:28] i _could_ do that, but i'd need to connect a computer first, which is something i'd rather avoid for now. [10:29] heh even a rpi would work [10:31] that i've got :) maybe setting up x and a browser would be a solution - i'll check that. [10:32] Ive had a "home theater" setup since TV was black and white :-) [10:32] :) [10:33] i'll build a htpc again some time, but for now i haven't got any appropriate spare hw [10:36] here in NA TV audio was FM quality , connected our 21" Philips tv to my Pioneer amp from the ground side of the volume ctrl ...I used to amaze my friends with the sound quality TV could achieve. [11:24] forgot to mention that was back in the early 70s [11:25] that must have been quite impressive :) [19:22] ducasse: yo, the Amazon FireTV is a good way to get subscription services and also have the option of Kodi on the side if you want any local media [19:23] essentially it's like adding the smart to a dumb TV [19:24] kodi tuns a non-smart tv into a smart one IMO [19:24] yeah no subscription streaming services though [19:25] so if they're a concern... [19:26] you can if you have paid subscription, some services are available thru kodi if you have user and pw [19:27] hmm Netflix still seems to be a work in progress last i saw, suspicious sources to even install the addons [19:28] iirc some of the pay sports chans are available in kodi === kostkon_ is now known as kostkon === kostkon_ is now known as kostkon
