| diddledan | nailed it | 01:08 |
| diddledan | bang in the middle of the target! | 01:08 |
| diddledan | they're getting crazy good at that | 01:08 |
| m0nkey_ | I hate to say it, but SpaceX launches have gotten boring. | 01:08 |
| m0nkey_ | And that's a good thing! | 01:08 |
| m0nkey_ | I'm super excited for the F9 Heavy launch | 01:09 |
| diddledan | when's that one going off? | 01:09 |
| m0nkey_ | Maybe later this month or early next | 01:09 |

| diplo | Morning all | 09:44 |
| brobostigon | morning | 09:48 |
| diplo | How are things brobostigon ? Not been active here in a few weeks myself | 09:54 |
| brobostigon | diplo: good life changing things, and you? | 09:56 |
| diplo | Plodding along really, not great not bad :) | 09:58 |
| brobostigon | :) | 09:59 |
| czajkowski | Aloha | 10:01 |
| brobostigon | hi | 10:02 |
| foobarry | are all snaps available for 14.04 or just specific ones? | 10:14 |
| diplo | I'm under the impression that these things should work on all supported platforms, but I guess that is down to developers ? | 10:27 |
| diplo | Snapscraft forums maybe or the snapcraft channel | 10:28 |

| ChunkzZ | anyone know where I can buy some BTC so I can send it to pay someone with BTC? | 11:23 |
| m0nkey_ | ChunkzZ: What type of coin and how much? BTC transactions are expensive right now. Looking at $20USD+ in fees alone. Only good if you're doing a transaction of $500USD or more. | 13:06 |
| foobarry | you could argue that bitcoin has failed as a proof of concept | 13:34 |
| zmoylan-pi | yes... and no... a failed first attempt perhaps. from the ashes will rise one that fixes the mistakes made most likely | 13:34 |
| zmoylan-pi | if it dies | 13:34 |
| zmoylan-pi | and how would you define death for a digital currency? when a new one is worth more? when no transactions are made for a year? | 13:36 |
| m0nkey_ | The problem with bitcoin is it can only process 4 transactions per second, hence the high fees. The higher the fee, the more likely your transaction will be processed first. | 13:37 |
| m0nkey_ | Bitcoin Cash tries to fix this | 13:37 |
| m0nkey_ | Allowing it to do more transactions per second. | 13:38 |
| m0nkey_ | THe whole blockchain thing is a complete mind f...... | 13:38 |
| foobarry | https://uappexplorer.com/snaps is the ubuntu snaps available? | 13:44 |
| foobarry | this doesn't look safe | 13:44 |
| awilkins | Dumb question : is Xenial getting patches for Meltdown / Spectre ? | 15:18 |
| awilkins | (are they just not out yet for anyubuntu?) | 15:18 |
| zmoylan-pi | isn't there a bit of a hold over some bios corrupting glitch? | 15:19 |
| awilkins | Well, that would indeed suck | 15:20 |
| awilkins | Wondering if this is the event that pitches me into installing Fedora onto my work laptop (successfully persuaded them to permit Linux! All our servers are RedHat so it has to be a Hat Derivative!) | 15:20 |
| Laney | That bios thing is a separate issue | 15:29 |
| Laney | Xenial will get patched of course, it's the LTS :-) | 15:30 |
| Laney | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/KnowledgeBase/SpectreAndMeltdown | 15:31 |
| * czajkowski is curently on 17.04, dont want to update as I'd lose the HUD and dash :( and Unity | 15:57 | |
| czajkowski | long live unity | 15:57 |
| Laney | czajkowski: better get off it soon :-o | 16:07 |
| Laney | 16.04 is the one for you | 16:07 |
| czajkowski | :( | 16:15 |
| m0nkey_ | You don't have to upgrade. Just run the most recent LTS. | 16:34 |
| daftykins | :D | 18:20 |
| ali1234 | you can still run unity on 18.04, it's in the repos | 18:48 |
| ali1234 | that means it will definitely work perfectly right? | 18:48 |
| ali1234 | that's what you constantly told us about gnome panel when it was replaced by unity | 18:48 |
