[01:00] hello Omnifrog [01:00] hi there [01:01] how are you doing? [01:02] I'm contemplating the mass death of all the leaves on the trees that are raining down on my yard demanding to be dealt with >_> [01:03] Fire. [01:03] yeah, see where that got California! [01:24] I'm trying to eliminate burning as a part of my land management strategy [01:25] * Unit193 is a pyro. >_> [01:25] * Omnifrog is surrounded by forest >_> [01:27] * Unit193 has woods in the back. [01:31] I have woods on all 4 sides [01:32] Sounds nice, except in high winds. :3 [01:32] wind, ugh [01:34] actually it doesn't matter what kind of weather event it is. it's going to create work for me [01:36] rain makes dead/weak branches heavy. they fall down [01:36] snow, ice. they fall down [01:36] wind. fall down [01:37] Owls [01:37] they land on branches [01:37] fall down [01:37] fuck owls [01:37] Heard a great sounding owl last night. [01:38] it's about time for them to come out and start talking [01:39] About a month back, heard one real close in the front moving, then about 1-2 seconds later it'd already made it to the back. >_> [01:40] Dang thing is Faaaast! [01:40] well, they can fly and stuff >.> [01:41] and you wont hear them flying cause they have those special feathers [01:41] stealth fethers [01:42] feathers* [01:42] Right, I'm used to things flying, but this was something else.. [01:43] a ninja owl? [01:57] Ninja owl, that'd be a hoot 🦉 [01:58] Unidentified Flying Owl [02:01] Monsters in the woods. [02:02] the only monsters in the woods are people [02:03] the animals know this [02:03] that's why they avoid us [02:05] I'd make a joke, but not entirely sure you know when I'm joking. :3 [02:05] Unit193 ufo, nice, so it does fly? [02:06] oh, please. I like jokes! [02:06] It's not funny....Fine then! You let the fox eat you. [02:07] ..Or the 'coons. [02:07] Or Coyote, but we don't have them *that* close. [02:07] ok... tell the joke already [02:09] ... [02:09] What's dotty for? ;3 [02:09] Ironically, I've actually seen more wildlife in the city than I have when out in the country. [02:09] wait, is that a riff on Coon and Friends from southpark? [02:10] Not that I know of, nope. [02:11] sorry to be thick here but what was the joke again? [02:12] That a small fox is going to attack and eat a grown man. You know, city fear of everything living. [02:14] ah. it's been so long since I lived in that world [02:14] I come face to face with animals all the time [02:15] both the animal and I are stunned when this happens [02:16] (While I am in the city, as I said I've seen much more wildlife here than nowhere Indiana. Fox, Opossum, countless deer, turky, etc, etc.) [02:16] we "usually" agree to just back away and go our own way [02:17] Eh, racoons get into crap, I'll run 'em off (if they have a direction to run, of course won't back it into a corner.) [02:17] I ran into a turkey last year that didn't feel like backing down [02:17] I have a hatred for racoons after one got inside twice.. [02:18] I had to hide in the car [02:19] Wait I got this: "What? Don't all you country folk walk around with revolvers and shotguns?" Niiice...How long did it corner you? [02:19] Big one? [02:21] ok.... [02:21] lets unpack this [02:22] (Kidding.._ [02:22] first, I'm not from this red neck state. [02:23] I'm a California transplant [02:23] 0_o [02:23] granted, I've been here for decades [02:24] and yeah, I have a lot of guns [02:24] * cyberanger is reminded of a Robin Williams joke involving deer in California & Deer fences [02:25] but I almost never have one on me [02:25] (I differentiate "country" from "redneck" too, there's quite a difference. I would put TN as "country" and generally like it.) [02:26] and 3: the turkey kept me away from my vehicle for about 10 minutes before I was able to take refuge in said vehicle [02:26] That doesn't sound like fun. ;3 [02:27] she prolly had a new nest near where I was working [02:29] I encounter animals like that all the time though [02:30] if you want the animals to live on your land you have to make way for them [02:33] (And as per that, southern Ohio seems a bit too much like bad-KY than TN to me. >_>) Yeah, but I'm pretty sure I'd prefer that to neighbors that play basketball all the time. >_> [02:35] Unit193: Where's bad-KY? for that matter, where's good-KY? [02:35] cyberanger: There's gotta be somewhere in there that's now WV, you know? [02:36] are we talking about states or sex lube? [02:36] WV doesn't bother me, there's a really nice bridge there that I want to jump off of someday. [02:36] Omnifrog: lol, states I hope [02:37] ..I'd make a comment, but something about channels needing to be family friendly.. [02:37] there are families in here ? [02:38] or really... anybody? [02:38] No, but there are public logs and quiet logbots, right ubuntulog [02:38] And the occasional lurker, right xTEMPLARx ? [02:38] well.. kick those bastards out [02:39] why even log this channel? [02:39] nothing ever happens here [02:39] (Wasn't going to be a great comment anyway. Just something to do with "dating" preferences in relation to...People already related.) [02:40] Ubuntu likes the LoCo's to do that, let them log the quiet..... [02:40] I wonder if any of the US LoCos are still really up and running, Ohio sure isn't. [02:40] Unit193: something like "....mississippi of the north" [02:41] cyberanger: Doesn't get worse than Alabama or West Virginia. [02:41] this is a most under utilized channel [02:42] I'm not sure if that's technically accurate. [02:42] A few weeks ago I assisted in shutting down and forwarding #ubuntu-touch, sooo.. [02:43] so one thing happened in the last month ? [02:45] we should focus on taking over the world! [02:58] I'm already working on that, there's a few holes in my plan. (biggest hole is about the size of the korea peninsula) I've decided to table it for now, the plan is just too radioactive for my liking. [03:02] About to publish the second blog post, maybe tonight, hopefully no later than monday night. [03:03] Oops, meant to send that in another channel, oh well. It's off topic to ubuntu (as usual) but no harm sharing here too I suppose ;-) [03:04] I'm not sure what percentage of the remaining people even use Ubuntu, to be honest. [03:04] Good question, Omnifrog do you? [03:05] First lets be clear that we don't mind if you aren't. :P [03:05] * cyberanger is running Qubes OS, and has tried out the Ubuntu template yesterday. [03:05] So I guess I'm running Fedora, Ubuntu, Windows 7 Pro, Whonix & Debian (mostly debian) [03:11] I'm running Redhat 2.0 just for fun [03:12] WOOOOHOOO, the is a Napster port ! [03:12] Oh, and becuase of the nature of Qubes OS, that's at the same time. Isn't virtualization awesome. [03:13] wait, I think Napster was more in the Redhat 3.0 days >.> [03:13] historical reference fail [03:13] lol [03:14] I think the closest I ever came was CentOS 4 or 5 [03:16] I blame my Linux use on Leo Laporte [03:16] Leo and Anna [03:16] I proudly give credit to Maximum PC [03:19] Omnifrog: sorry, I don't recognize the names [03:20] Tech TV, The Screen Savers? [03:20] Wow, yeah that's why. Forever ago. [03:21] they, and he, are still on the air! [03:22] * cyberanger whistles innocently....... [03:22] * cyberanger rephrases [03:22] Forever ago since I've seen it. [03:22] https://twit.tv/shows/new-screen-savers [03:22] it's still Leo [03:23] it's a different show of course [03:33] * cyberanger bookmarks it for later. [03:35] I wonder if the studio escaped the fires [03:36] his studios are in the north bay [03:50] How close is that to NAPA? [03:50] My time in Cali wasn't much, and it wasn't yesterday. [04:00] I think he'll be OK [04:00] https://www.google.com/maps/place/TWiT/@38.2782217,-122.649067,8281m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m12!1m6!3m5!1s0x8085b6a6539c33e3:0xcaf68591c91d8ce9!2sTWiT!8m2!3d38.2766295!4d-122.6669266!3m4!1s0x8085b6a6539c33e3:0xcaf68591c91d8ce9!8m2!3d38.2766295!4d-122.6669266?hl=en
