ducasse | morning | 06:18 |
lordievader | Good morning | 07:02 |
ducasse | hi lordievader, wb | 07:10 |
lordievader | Hey ducasse, how are you doing? | 07:11 |
ducasse | good, thanks - going out to an optician appointment soon. how are you? | 07:13 |
lordievader | Doing good here, doing some typing practice :) | 07:14 |
ducasse | ah, are you using some software for it? | 07:15 |
lordievader | ktouch, practicing colemak. | 07:17 |
lordievader | By default it is quite rigid, 180 characters per minute and an accuracy of >=98% to continue to the next lesson. | 07:19 |
ducasse | why colemak? i have no idea what the advantages are.. | 07:19 |
lordievader | The most used letters are on the homerow, it is supposed to make your typing more efficient. | 07:20 |
lordievader | Qwerty is designed to be as non-efficient as possible ;) (I'm paraphrasing) | 07:21 |
ducasse | well, prevent the pins that strike the paper in a typewriter from locking, yes :) | 07:23 |
ducasse | the reason i've never looked into something like dvorak is that i started typing early enough that qwerty has 'always' been in muscle memory | 07:24 |
lordievader | Same here ;) | 07:24 |
ducasse | i think i'm also too lazy to put in the effort, but i wish you good luck :) | 07:26 |
lordievader | Hahaha, thanks. | 07:31 |
ducasse | btw, do you use any android apps for reading ebooks? any suggestions? i see fbreader is popular, but not sure if it's worth buying. | 07:32 |
lordievader | I use an ipad for reading. Don't think Marvin is available on Android. | 07:38 |
ducasse | no, i've heard about it but don't think it is. i'll try out fbreader with ads and see how it looks. | 07:39 |

lotuspsychje | BluesKaj: playing with artful on business desktop here | 11:12 |
BluesKaj | right, how is it so far, using gnome a I presume? | 11:13 |
lotuspsychje | BluesKaj: for me, fantastic yes in gnome with dash to dock fork | 11:14 |
BluesKaj | dock fork? | 11:14 |
lotuspsychje | BluesKaj: http://imgur.com/a/nWNk4 | 11:15 |
lotuspsychje | BluesKaj: they forked the addon and added by default to have a more 'unity' feeling | 11:15 |
BluesKaj | ahh | 11:15 |
lotuspsychje | BluesKaj: so thank god its not only the activities button alone anymore | 11:16 |
BluesKaj | I went back to VDs on kde/plasma, activities was too clunky and slow | 11:17 |
lotuspsychje | ducasse: you got chromium installed on artful? | 11:20 |
lotuspsychje | i got keyring unlock password every time i launch chromium | 11:20 |
ducasse | i have chromium, yes, but i haven't seen that. probably because i don't have they keyring daemon running ;) | 11:27 |
lotuspsychje | aha | 11:28 |
lotuspsychje | anyone knows about mms stuff? | 14:48 |
daftykins | picture messaging? :) the tech that nobody wanted | 14:52 |
lotuspsychje | yeah | 14:52 |
lotuspsychje | daftykins: have a customer that gets a timeout when receiving or sending a pic tru mms | 14:52 |
lotuspsychje | doublechecked all APN settings with a provider tech | 14:52 |
daftykins | with what kind of phone? | 14:52 |
lotuspsychje | samsung galaxy a3 2017 | 14:53 |
daftykins | hmm i'd say it was the telcos problem to support | 14:53 |
ducasse | ask the provider to send him the profile again? | 14:53 |
daftykins | eh you just key 'em in manually | 14:53 |
lotuspsychje | daftykins: could it be that his activation of new sim is recently done? | 14:54 |
lotuspsychje | from yesterday | 14:54 |
lotuspsychje | ducasse: provider made a new ticket also | 14:54 |
daftykins | nah if mobile data works i'd have thought MMS would work... but who uses MMS? :) | 14:54 |
lotuspsychje | lol, those who refuse to send pics tru email/wifi | 14:55 |
lotuspsychje | he's 60 y old, that explains it? | 14:55 |
lotuspsychje | oldskool paying is better right :p | 14:55 |
daftykins | there's always the ol' customary reboot after editing settings i suppose | 14:57 |
lotuspsychje | daftykins: yeah we tryed that too | 14:57 |
daftykins | much sooner use whatsapp and send pics and messages for free | 14:57 |
lotuspsychje | daftykins: webpage from provider also says to send 1 mms to own number to activate | 14:59 |
lotuspsychje | but that also timeouts | 14:59 |
ducasse | i'd talk to the provider, there's not much you can do anyway | 15:03 |
daftykins | *nod* | 15:03 |
lotuspsychje | ducasse: yeah ill do that, ticket is being made anyways | 15:03 |
ducasse | give 'em hell! | 15:03 |
lotuspsychje | lol | 15:03 |
lotuspsychje | of course, customer complains his old nokia could send mms no probs | 15:04 |
lotuspsychje | so i said, it was another provider also.. | 15:04 |
lotuspsychje | cant generalize things like that | 15:04 |
daftykins | yes and his old morse code generator could function on the telegraph pretty well too | 15:04 |
lotuspsychje | lol | 15:04 |
daftykins | :> | 15:04 |

lotuspsychje | S.O.S. | 15:22 |
ducasse | another idea, convert his images to ascii then send those as sms | 15:22 |
lotuspsychje | lol | 15:22 |
lotuspsychje | i still got a tamtam here | 15:22 |
lotuspsychje | and send smoke messages over tha mountains | 15:23 |
daftykins | :> | 15:23 |
daftykins | given 160 characters per message how many messages would a 640x480 black and white pic require to send? :> | 15:23 |
ducasse | ok, then, compress and uuencode it | 15:24 |
daftykins | i need to write a work invoice, boo | 15:26 |

brunch | I strongly dislike gnome3 | 16:41 |
brunch | I miss unity :( | 16:42 |
nacc | brunch: then install it? | 16:42 |
daftykins | go LTS :) | 16:42 |
nacc | brunch: it's still in universe | 16:42 |
brunch | I'm forcing myself forward | 16:42 |
brunch | but I don't feel like gnome is ready yet | 16:42 |
brunch | games run like arse | 16:42 |
brunch | I tried KDE, which runs smoother but I just can't wrap my head around the lack of hotkeys | 16:43 |
brunch | and I'm too lazy to install some plugins to make it run like unity | 16:43 |
brunch | I also miss utouch | 16:48 |
brunch | hopefully snap becomes the main thing, I'm rooting for that as well | 16:48 |
daftykins | happy with normal packages myself | 16:49 |
BluesKaj | dunno anything about sanp | 16:51 |
BluesKaj | snap even :-) | 16:52 |
EriC^^ | evening all | 17:06 |
brunch | evening EriC^^ | 17:06 |
EriC^^ | hey brunch | 17:06 |
BluesKaj | hey EriC^^ | 17:15 |
EriC^^ | hi BluesKaj | 18:19 |
EriC^^ | wb | 18:19 |
oerheks | :-) | 18:28 |
EriC^^ | hey oerheks :) | 18:28 |
oerheks | Hi EriC^^, just made diner, brb | 18:29 |
EriC^^ | cool, bon apetite :) | 18:31 |
BluesKaj | was away for a few mins at the neighbourhood mailbox...junkmail and flyers are still plentiful :-) | 18:49 |
BluesKaj | paper advertizing still has it's uses | 18:51 |
BluesKaj | was reading about anew audio client/server called Pipewire that's supposed to replace alsa and pulse audio on fedora | 18:59 |
ducasse | plus gstreamer, aiui - it's also for video. and not alsa, i think, wasn't it jack? | 19:02 |
oerheks | pipewire, interesting, from the Fedora guys | 19:05 |
BluesKaj | the emphasis seemed to be on audio ..video was only mentioned in passing | 19:07 |
ducasse | video was the original goal according to the stuff i read. who cares, i adopt a 'wait and see' approach to this. | 19:09 |
immu | https://blogs.gnome.org/uraeus/2017/06/20/fedora-workstation-26-and-beyond/ | 19:26 |
immu | https://pipewire.github.io/pipewire.org/ | 19:27 |
BluesKaj | yeah, it looks some kind of video/audio integration to replace pulse and gstreamer as a real media suite | 19:27 |
immu | lets see | 19:39 |
immu | goog nite folks | 19:39 |
immu | EriC^^, hi | 19:39 |
