valorie@MichaelTun I wish!06:24
valorieI voted for Cantata and now wish I had vetoed it instead06:24
acheronukwhy?06:25
valoriebecause I could never get it to work06:26
valorienot one tune played06:26
=== himcesjf_ is now known as him-cesjf
valorieamarok still works though06:26
valorieso whatever06:26
acheronukweird. works nicely here06:26
valoriebut not a very nice experience for our users06:26
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> if mpd is not setup by default then Cantata should NOT be the default. The only way it should be default if mpd is preconfigured. That is the #1 reason people say they dont use Cantata. Honestly, I agree with that because that is why I dont use it. Yes, I can setup mpd but I dont care enough to do it.06:28
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> Qmmp should be the default music player for Kubuntu and it should be preconfigured to be fully compatible with Plasma which it totally can be. :) (default sucks though)06:30
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> I'd stay away from Amarok to be honest because it's well . . . it's Amarok06:31
valorieheh -- I started on the amarok team06:31
valorieand like the concept06:32
valorieI get that not everybody cares about the band, etc.06:32
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> Amarok used to be great like 1.4 was awesome . . . then slowly it became something I have no desire to touch again06:32
acheronukcantata sets up mpd on 1st run. its not appropriate to pre-configure it06:32
valorie@michaeltun -- tastes differ!06:33
valorieanyway, if it works for most, OK06:33
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> that requires the user to set it up then and to know what they are doing with setting it up. If this were Arch or something I'd be fine with that but since it is Kubuntu and meant to be user-friendly. Default is King and that is why it is important.06:34
valoriewhen elisa is finally released we'll have to re-evaluate anyway06:34
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> Elisa and Babe are pretty far away though. They both look very nice but they are both still very much beta06:35
valorieyup06:35
valorieand it's possible the new amarok will be released in time to evaluate IT06:35
valoriepoor Michael Tun06:36
valorielol06:36
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> if the new Amarok has a default of a freaking wiki in it then I vote "Ama-no"06:36

acheronuktried the kf5 port yesterday, and was not too impressed06:42
acheronukcontext pane didn't load for a start06:43
valorieI get the idea it is just a raw port for now06:43
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> is the feature freeze in lock in general or was that just for the beta?06:43
valorieno work on the UX etc.06:43
valorieyet06:43
acheronukhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeatureFreeze06:44
valoriethey are considering using kirigami for instance06:44
acheronukuntil release ^06:44
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @valorie, Kirigami would be interesting06:44
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> ok better question . . . are the setting improvements that I suggested blocked with this freeze?06:45
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> I noticed many arent done so I was wondering if they cant be done now or selected not to be done06:45
acheronukno, they are not blocked06:46
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> ok sweet06:46
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @MichaelTun the change to disable kalarm autostart went in a few hrs before the zesty RC images spun! 😮06:54
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> not that I plan to leave it that late :P06:55
-kubuntu-ci:#kubuntu-devel- Project bionic_unstable_kcalcore build #99: STILL FAILING in 34 min: https://kci.pangea.pub/job/bionic_unstable_kcalcore/99/06:56
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @acheronuk, oh ok cool. I've never tried kalarm before but there was talks about merging kalarm, ktimer, kteatime, kronometer, etc into a single app that does it all.07:00
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> I use KTeaTime for something completely different for it's purpose and I use Kronometer for doing live streams and podcasts. :)07:01
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @MichaelTun, It was autostarting akonadi, which was a pain just for that07:01
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @acheronuk, oh wow, yea no thanks07:01
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> so now it doesn't run unless you choose to use a PIM app and it gets set up by that07:02
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> https://phabricator.kde.org/T7978#128442 @acheronuk does this mean this is done now?07:11
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @MichaelTun sorry. no. that is a bit misleading. I was testing what files needed to change by making my ~/.config/ a git repo, and git diffing what changed when I altered settings07:13
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> that is the output for my ref07:13
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> oh ok that makes sense then. This is not a critical change but I think it would be a nice polish change07:14
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @MichaelTun, it's one that might be easiest with a kubuntu look and feel config07:17
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @acheronuk, can a L&F theme be applied by default during install?07:20
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> yes07:21
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> sounds good then :)07:21
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> also if that config solves the menu problem that be nice07:21
-kubuntu-ci:#kubuntu-devel- Project bionic_unstable_kcalcore build #100: STILL FAILING in 20 min: https://kci.pangea.pub/job/bionic_unstable_kcalcore/100/07:21
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> would also mean people could revert to default kde look and feel, where stick defaults would go back07:22
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> on setting changes a look-and-feel supports, anyway07:23
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> that sounds like a great option for those who dont like change07:23
IrcsomeBot<tsimonq2> (Calamares...)07:23
IrcsomeBot<tsimonq2> Lol07:24
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> I need to make all the changes in a VM, generate a custom look and feel, as see what settings it picks up in its config07:24

acheronukcyphermox: thanks :)13:05
cyphermoxactually I'm wondering if it wouldn't be just better to grep for something like login=oem, since one might edit the file manually and forget to remove the comment13:05
cyphermoxyou know, whatever the entry is when oem is still set13:06
acheronukcyphermox: I did do that at 1st, but did belt and braces in case someone was dumb enough to put oem as the new user13:06

IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @nggraham if you have the BW to spare for a iso download that is13:27

IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> thanks. the boot theme is a bit off on those isos, so don't worry about that13:46
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> the discussion of single-click vs double-click is very interesting to me since it is surprising that anyone would be so much on the side of single-click that they would fight it from being changed to benefit new users.15:16
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> referring to the KDE phab discussion15:16
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> hopefully Kubuntu can show them the way. :)15:16
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> actually I think if Kubuntu were to do this it would be interesting to see what reactions users have comparing Kubuntu vs Neon15:17
IrcsomeBot<tomazcanabrava> @MichaelTun - most tutorials on kde post install have a section dedicated to make it two clicks.15:17
IrcsomeBot<tomazcanabrava> at least the ones in pt_NR15:17
IrcsomeBot<tomazcanabrava> BR15:17
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @tomazcanabrava, lol exactly!15:17
IrcsomeBot<tomazcanabrava> mine is one - click because I had to learn and I didn't mind testing it for a while15:19
IrcsomeBot<tomazcanabrava> but there's still places where it's really bad, for instance selecting files on dolphin, sometimes I try to click on the '+' at the toplevel of the icon, and miss it by a pixel,15:20
IrcsomeBot<tomazcanabrava> then okular opens with a really huge pdf that I actually wanted to delete.15:20
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> single-click is better in many ways but default expectation is way more important in my opinion than what is technically superior or not. :)15:20
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @tomazcanabrava, yea that is problematic. I also think the plus/minus buttons are needlessly confusing as well when it should just be a checkbox like in Windows.15:21
IrcsomeBot<tomazcanabrava> +1. if we have the hability to change it and the power user can always fine tune, but the default should not be for the power user.15:21
IrcsomeBot<tomazcanabrava> *specially* because a lot of newcommers think that they are power users and destroy the system. (/me been there, done that)15:22
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @tomazcanabrava, exactly, which is why I am so surprised that people on phabricator are so in favor of single click . . . it's not about what is better to use but what is better for new users.15:22
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @tomazcanabrava, lol there is even a meme about that in the Linux community. "KDE is so customizable but don't customize too much or you'll break it . . . too bad the defaults are so bad they force you to customize on day one"15:23
mamarleyA couple of times my configuration has gotten accidentally switched to single-click.  I find it rather infuriating, always executing things I didn't mean to execute and navigating when I meant to select.15:31
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @mamarley, I think that is the reaction most people have. @tomazcanabrava gave me an idea to add to the phabricator of people posting on the internet about how to change it or why they dont like it.15:34

* BluesKaj loves single click, probly due to my lazy nature :-)15:51
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> single click vs double click is an endless debate in general. What is your opinion of what should be default?15:51
IrcsomeBot<tomazcanabrava> "least surprise for the newcommer"15:52
mamarleyComing from Windows, people would probably be expecting double-click.  I'm not sure what Macs do.16:19
BluesKajwindows can single click if one sets it16:20
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> mac is double-click16:24
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> the thing is, double-click does legitimately heva major usability problems that all desktop OSs have been hauling forwards for 30 years16:24
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> double-clicking is legitimately really hard for a lot of people16:24
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> and for many others, it's never obvious what needs to be double-clicked and what needs to be single-clicked16:24
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> you see for example people double-clicking launchers and toolbar icons *all the time* out of this confusion16:25
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> single-click solves all that... at the cost of other issues. The question is, is it worth it? And if not, can it be made worth it? And regardless, what's a good setting *today*?16:25
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @nggraham, yes but doing so has no impact in most cases. There are people who double click links on websites, doesn't matter because the same outcome occurs.16:27
mamarleynggraham: And you also get people accidentally executing things they didn't mean to execute and navigating when they meant to select with single-click.16:28
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @nggraham, I dont think single click is worth solving those issues because those issues are not experienced by the majority. I do think it needs to be an option but not the default choice. … KDE should also worry about accessibility more so than it currently does.16:28
mamarleyEspecially trying to select a single item, you have to press Ctrl to make that work.16:28
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> as I stated earlier, here is my post showing a variety of complaints on the single-click default over the years. https://phabricator.kde.org/T8187#132416 … how many people complain about double-click default to make tutorials, forum posts, subreddit posts, etc? Not many. :)16:29
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> I do agree with you guys, but it's important to acknowledge other opinions and the legitimate case that can be made for the status quo16:30
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> we strengthen our own case if we can understand and fluently refute the opposing argument16:31
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> I agree that we shouldnt dismiss the opinions of others but this is a rare exception where the expectation is too great while the benefit and improvement is too small to bother with trying to change expectations. … If we were having this debate in 1995 then I'd have no issue with trying it out. However, it's been over 20 years of double-click as default ingrained into desktop computing paradigm. The debate should have been16:33
IrcsomeBotover years ago in my opinion.16:33
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> (still +1 on changing it in Kubuntu and then gauging user feedback)16:34
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @nggraham, I don't think Neon would change it unless default changed so I am very interested to see the reactions when Kubuntu changes it16:35
=== nameless is now known as Guest39187
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> anyone else able to test that iso wifi bug with my modified image?17:45
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> I plan to later today; can't right now as I'm at work17:45
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @nggraham, Yeah. I meant apart from you :)17:45
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> if I'm going to propose a change to a package in 'main', I want as much cooberations as possible17:46
=== nameless is now known as Guest97455
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @acheronuk, I dont know what needs to be tested but I would if explained what to do. :)17:50
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> I'll have to do it on my secondary "enterprise" laptop that is kind of old so not sure how useful that info would be17:51
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> This iso needs testing: http://kci.pangea.pub/images/iso_bionic_stable_amd64/current/kubuntu-ci-stable-bionic-amd64.iso17:51
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> To see if the  changes in casper in that fix the double password request for secured wifi in the live session17:52
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> 1. boot to live session with image … 2. click on wifi icon in system tray … 3. click "Connect" for a wifi network that has a lock icon on it … 4. enter your password into the text field in the plasmoid there … Question: Does a window immediately pop up asking for your password again?17:52
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> specifically connecting to networks shown with a padlock17:53
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> oh I see and thanks will do17:53
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> yay17:53
mamarleyI think I actually saw that bug on my installed system a while back, but I just thought I had fatfingered my password.17:54
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @nggraham I have tried renabling kwallet, but disabling it again with a config file. which plasma-nm has fallback code to cope with.  … Instead of breaking kwallet by removing it's service files, which plasma-nm doesn't know has happened, and thinks it should be working.17:56
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> mmmmm17:56
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> interesting, maybe that was part of our problem all along17:57
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> I think it was. hence the fixes so far only worked partially or not at all17:59
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> kwallet leaving me alone would be so nice. :)17:59
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> This is the live session for now17:59
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> is there a default email client in Kubuntu? If so and it is KMail, could it not be? :)18:00
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> thinking about dropping it for 18.10. possibly18:01
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @acheronuk, http://s.quickmeme.com/img/be/be73ebe93046aca825637eefdb3ff07ffc3cc2d9a7cbab061b122fa5ecc3e4a0.jpg18:04
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> I mean I dont actually care because I remove it anyway but I think it is a negative towards Kubuntu's reputation as being the "easy to use/new user Plasma" distro.18:19
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> when they hurry up with a good kde alternative, it will make that choice easier :/18:21
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @acheronuk, agreed . . . Kube needs to hurry :)18:48
mamarleyI am looking forward to Kube as well.  I'm using Thunderbird right now, but it seems to have become rather stagnant as of late.19:06
mamarleyAnd I won't install Kmail because Akonadi.19:06
IrcsomeBot<myfenris> the kube package available ?19:16
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> no. it's still a 'tech preview'19:19

IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @nggraham thinking of posting the following comment to phabricator but it might be a bit too heavy so feedback please. … —------— … I think the experiment of single-click by default has had enough time that if it were to have changed the expectations of users then it would have already done it. … KDE/Plasma has had single-click as default for over a decade and the topic has been brought up on so many occasions and h20:29
IrcsomeBotthe initial experience of so many people that it has motivated tutorials and videos to change it. It has also made it a focal point of "things to do after installing Plasma" as well as a staple citation for a reason people give for why they stopped using Plasma. I am not saying people leave because of it but it is one of the factors that creates a "if I have to change something so essential, what else will I have to change" reaction. …20:29
IrcsomeBotI'll be open about something . . . I had this initial reaction towards Plasma many years ago. I tried it and had to change so much stuff to get it to a state where I was happy to start using it that I just decided to give up on it. It wasn't until many conversations with long-time Plasma fans that I finally decided to just ignore all of the paper cuts and try to see what made Plasma so great to them. I have been using Plasma since I made20:29
IrcsomeBotthat decision to fully try it. However, I think most people aren't willing to ignore things that create a feeling of inevitable customizations.20:29
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> not too heavy, go ahead and do it, I say20:30
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> ok cool done . . . you read fast20:31
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> I can't say I disagree with anything you wrote20:33
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> so @acheronuk, are we changing this in Kubuntu, or are we still undecided?20:33
IrcsomeBot<acheronuk> @nggraham, I intend to unless someone (KC) forces me not to20:36
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> haha20:36
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> I'll back you up20:36
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> SWEET20:38
valoriewhy would the KC weigh in on this?20:40
valorieI have no strong feelings on either side, for my part20:40
valorieI use Dolphin quite a bit so double-click is better for me after using single for many years20:41
valorieif double is better for new users then go for it20:41
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @valorie, why would anyone care if it was changed in the first place to benefit new user expectation? yet for some reason it is being debated in phabricator . . . 🤦‍♂️20:41
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> it is being debated because Henrik senses (correctly) that I plan to use Kubuntu's experiencing changing this setting to push for an upstream change, which he opposes20:42
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> I know that is not Kubuntu related but still it hurts my brain that the debate even needs to exist20:42
valorieit's a problem when people forget that they are not defending positions, but rather thinking together20:42
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> he shouldnt oppose it is my point .. . it makes no sense to oppose it20:42
acheronukvalorie: I don't expect KC would have strong enough feelings. I was just covering my ass with that remark20:43
valorieman the machine guns and protect the position, boys!20:43
valoriethat's what comes out far too often20:43
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @valorie, lol20:43
* valorie covers acheronuk's ass with spitballs20:44
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> so true . . . sad but true20:44
valorieshot out of machine guns20:44
valorielol20:44
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> we get passionate because we believe our view best approximates either the platonic ideal, or what our users would prefer (depending on our personalities)20:45
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> if it were possible to do actual user and usability testing, we could get hard answers instead of just spitballing20:45
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> which would de-militarize these kinds of discussions20:46
acheronukKDE can't have it both ways. that we are not their (unofficial ref distro), and object to changing our defaults20:46
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> we could say, "our research shows that approach X results in users being able to perform the task 43% of the time, after an average of 57 seconds for those who have succeeded; with approach Y, it's 79% and 20 seconds"20:46
tsimonq2Upstream KDE is objecting to Kubuntu changing *our* defaults?20:47
tsimonq2:/20:47
tsimonq2C'moooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn20:47
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> only one guy, but yes20:47
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @nggraham, Ubuntu might have a solution for that data :)20:47
tsimonq2Ah ok20:47
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> I mean, RHEL adds a task manager and a start menu to GNOME for pete's sake20:47
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @nggraham, well Red Hat funds GNOME so they can ignore whatever GNOME does anyway lol20:48
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> when you provide the money they cant really complain much lol20:48
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> RHEL is really, really good. We need to aspire to that level of awesome in the KDE world IMHO20:49
acheronukalso as I said earlier, if I implement all the changes I can via a "Kubuntu look-and-feel package", then I will be leaving the stock defaults intact ;)20:49
acheronukwhich people could switch back to in a few clicks20:49
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> +120:49
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> of course nobody will because most users don't care, which is fine, and why we have our own set of defaults20:50
acheronukyup20:50
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> @acheronuk, sneaky sneaky :)20:50
valoriethis is why we love our Rik20:50

IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> stickers work in IRC iirc but do gifs?20:57
valorieit downloads and plays when I click the play arrow20:58
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> ahh thats not bad20:58
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> so I mentioned this to Rik on my live stream but forgot to mention it here.21:00
IrcsomeBot<MichaelTun> I'd like to make a promo video for Kubuntu 18.04 like I do for KDE Plasma. Especially with all the new stuff in Kubuntu coming . . . especially with all the UX stuff being fixed. I can hype this so well. :)21:01
valorieon the plus side, after reading more of this debate, it's great to see KDE folks weighing in on Kubuntu's process here21:08
valoriekudos for everybody engaging21:08
IrcsomeBot<nggraham> nice to see them acknowledge us as a heavyweight, too :)21:16
