popeythere are two in fact and never thought they smelled.11:06

foobarrythe last time i was in enfield one, it smelt like someone had crapped themselves11:07
foobarryand always a simpsons comic book guy near the till with plastic bags loitering11:07
zmoylan-piused to do software for video shops. one of them opened tanning salons as video market dried up.  people used to use tanning booths as bathroom constantly...11:08
foobarryewww11:09
zmoylan-pi...and you had to be a member to use them... so they knew who used it...11:09
Seeker`why would you do that?!11:10
popeyPeople are horrible11:10
popeyIt turns out11:10
Seeker`:O11:10
zmoylan-pispeculation was that they didn't want to leave booth disturbing their tanning but max tanning time was only a few minutes...11:11

foobarrywho is using solus in here, was it SuperMatt ?11:36
diplohe is, as am I foobarry11:37
diploAlong with about 5 other distros in different places11:37
SuperMatto/11:39
SuperMattAnything you'd like to know?11:39
foobarryi tried it on my laptop after elementary upgrade made it cook11:52
foobarryseems a lot better11:55
foobarryi'm nervous about using a system that has limited packages11:56
foobarryand away from the ubuntu ecosystem11:57
popeyikey is good at adding new packages if you request them11:57
foobarryi won't use it for my work laptop but mighton my home one11:57
popeyhe's probably been asked for whatever it is you probably need11:57
SuperMattI was worried about lack of packages, then I realised I only really need firefox, owncloud and keepass for my day to day laptopping11:58
foobarryon my work laptop i might tend to use a lot of scientific stuff or obscure packages, plus enterprisey stuff to support vmware11:58
diploIt's very easy to get packages in as popey said, good reasoning and not a dead package and he'll add it, not limited by pacakages really anymore I don't think, not had any that I've needed not be available so fa13:09
foobarrybudgie has improved a lot13:12
foobarryworkflow a bit lacking though vs elementary13:12
diploI like Budgie, I was running ubuntu budgie before13:12
foobarryalt-tab sucks, and no expose view13:12
diploandy@asuras ~/Downloads $ eopkg la | grep -v dbginfo | wc -l13:12
diplo540213:12
diploPackages ^^13:12
diploYep, alt-tab is being worked on currently I think13:13
foobarryi would require plank etc too13:14
diploandy@asuras ~/Downloads $ eopkg sr plank13:14
diploplank           - Simple application dock13:14
foobarryyep, i just meant that budgie seemed a bit lacking in simple workflow. e.g. the dock doesn't combine multiple instances of an app etc13:30
foobarryit's likely i'll try it for proper on a home laptop13:30
foobarrynot sure what they did to elementary WM but it makes my fans spin up doing anything. tried powertop and tlp etc too13:31
* diddledan attempting to snap a game14:00
foobarryi should probably look into snaps at some pt as i build containers at work regularly14:21
popeydiddledan: lemme know if you need a tester, i have nvidia and intel :)15:38
diddledanroger that15:38
diddledanI'm just working on getting the desktop entries sorted right now15:39
diddledanannoyingly I cannot get SNAPCRAFT_CONTAINER_BUILDS to work reliably at all15:40
diddledanit works once after a reboot and then never again until I reboot again15:40
diddledancleanbuild works every time so it's not lxd being a **ck15:41
diddledanname registered.15:50
diddledanok, popey, popester, popesicle, the build service is running. and there's an AMD64 build that I manually uploaded (number 1 in the store - the automatic builds will be subsequent to 1 when they're built) - sudo snap install --edge openra16:15
popeyyay16:15
popeydiddledan: does it have sound?16:18
diddledanshould do, once you're in-game16:18

popeyworks perfick on intel laptop16:20
popeydiddledan: works on nvidia laptop too!16:20

diddledanI haven't got the "load content from disc" working yet. I've added the mount-observe plug but snappy-debug.scanlog still tells me to add it16:30
diddledanthese are the relevant denials https://paste.ubuntu.com/25432959/16:32
diddledanand these are the plugs: https://paste.ubuntu.com/25432961/16:32
