[14:14] <rick_h> party
[14:15] <cmaloney> whee
[14:15] <cmaloney> rick_h: Are you still out and about?
[14:15] <rick_h> cmaloney: home and about
[14:15] <rick_h> got back last night
[14:16] <cmaloney> Ah, so you're responsible for the upcoming snow. :)
[14:16] <rick_h> pretty much
[14:16] <cmaloney> How was the biking?
[14:16] <rick_h> though I see it'll warm and melt the week after
[14:17] <rick_h> the biking was good
[14:17] <rick_h> so so sore
[14:17] <cmaloney> Awesome
[14:18] <rick_h> yea, was fun stuff. Trip went off well despite some rain and the wife had a great time so bonus points

[14:23] <cmaloney> Nice!
[14:23] <cmaloney> JoDee wants to know what the "brain dick" photo is
[14:24] <rick_h> lol
[14:24] <rick_h> so it was at the art museum and erica thought it was some sort of intestine thing
[14:25] <rick_h> if you zoom in you can see lettering
[14:25] <rick_h> so it's some sort of crazy "good humor bar" art
[14:26] <cmaloney> The sad thing is you had enough info from "brain dick" to know what it was
[15:35] <jrwren> TIL: codeweavers sells a crossover for chromeos
[15:38]  * rick_h wonders what a crossover is (thought it was a wanna-be SUV)
[15:44] <jrwren> commercial front end to wine
[15:45]  * brousch wonders what a commercial frontend to wine is (thought it was a tasting room)
[15:52] <jrwren> brousch: wine is not an emulator.
[15:52] <jrwren> brousch: ya know how MSFT made windows subsystem for linux, which just maps syscalls and tries to be linux?
[15:52] <jrwren> Wine is like that only 20yrs older and since windows isn't open source it has to reimplement every windows API.
[15:53] <jrwren> Run windows software in linux.
[15:53] <jrwren> This is becoming HUGELY more important now that windows is more unusable than ever.
[15:53] <brousch> I know. I was being a troll :P
[15:53] <jrwren> Windows 10 is so bad, I'm suddenly HUGELY interested in wine.
[15:54] <brousch> Although I admit I didn't know people were still using it
[17:39] <cmaloney> Crossover is actually pretty awesome
[17:39] <cmaloney> as soon as Windows 7 goes away I'll likely be more interested in Wine
[17:40] <cmaloney> I've used it for some games but sadly those I lost interest in the games so I haven't re-upped
[17:40] <cmaloney> plus they would crash for no apparent reason
[19:03] <waldo323> (late to the conversation) there used to be another frontend for wine which was specifically tailored for games
[19:27] <jrwren> i'm that kind of snob.
[19:27] <jrwren> awk sucks. i love gawk.
[19:33] <cmaloney> I love the GNU variants of commands
[20:04] <jrwren> i just had ANOTEHR case that awk couldn't handle, but gawk could.
[20:04] <jrwren> mawk probably could too.
[20:11] <cmaloney> hawk would just eat it
[20:21] <jrwren> lol
[23:07] <jrwren> problem with my hatred of win10 driving me to linux is that desktop linux is somehow actually worse. The trend to remove menus... a 33+yr old concept which worked very well for those 33 yr...
[23:07] <jrwren> i hate software.
[23:29] <cmaloney> jrwren: Problem is we're the old curmudgeons
[23:29] <cmaloney> now everything is buried under a hamburger menu
[23:29] <cmaloney> or three dots
[23:29] <cmaloney> and only 30% of the functionality is exposed to the user
[23:30] <cmaloney> we have the same chuckleheads who thougt that the registry was a great idea
[23:38] <brousch> Xubuntu
[23:38] <brousch> Embrace the hamster
