[07:22] <BionicMatt> morning
[07:23] <jwt> Friday!!! Whooo!
[07:47] <brobostigon> morning boys and girls.
[07:53] <BionicMatt> morning
[07:53] <BionicMatt> Today I am patiently waiting for Digital Ocean to release their 18.04 droplet so I can upgrade
[07:53] <brobostigon> morning
[08:04] <BionicMatt> <3 snap install firefox --beta
[08:05] <brobostigon> hmm, do-release-upgrade only sees 17.10 as the most recent version, not 18.04. odd.
[08:05] <BionicMatt> add -d
[08:05] <BionicMatt> also, have you done an apt update?
[08:06] <brobostigon> ptaylor@deepthought:~$ sudo do-release-upgrade -d
[08:06] <brobostigon> Checking for a new Ubuntu release
[08:06] <brobostigon> Upgrades to the development release are only
[08:06] <brobostigon> available from the latest supported release.
[08:06] <brobostigon> its not seeing it.
[08:06] <BionicMatt> strange
[08:07] <BionicMatt> lsb_release -c?
[08:08] <brobostigon> lsb_release -c
[08:08] <brobostigon> Codename:	xenial
[08:08] <BionicMatt> how odd
[08:08] <brobostigon> i agree.
[08:10] <brobostigon> i changed  /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades to lts, and do-release-upgrade has seen it.
[08:12] <BionicMatt> ah, your machine was trying to upgrade to 16.10
[08:12] <BionicMatt> which of course is not supported any more
[08:13] <brobostigon> seems so.
[14:03] <brobostigon> https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199035 confirmed that bug already.
[14:03] <lubotu3> bugzilla.kernel.org bug 199035 in Bluetooth "BCM2046B1 and hid2hci generates highcpu usage due to udev since 4.14 kernel" [High,New]
[14:06] <zmoylan-pi> come back irda, all is forgiven... :-)
[14:08] <brobostigon> :)
[14:09] <zmoylan-pi> it was just rs232-c done over infra red... i know a song about that... :-)
[14:11] <brobostigon> :)
[15:46] <zleap> hi all
[18:25] <zmoylan-pi> o/
[18:25] <diddledan> \o
[18:26] <brobostigon> o/
[18:26] <diddledan> \o/
[18:26] <zmoylan-pi> =^..^=
[18:27] <diddledan> that last one of mine should be seen like a person trying to get the attention of the speeding runaway train driver
[18:31] <zmoylan-pi> i thought trains were now designed to stop without a human at the controls...
[18:43] <diddledan> I didn't say he was negligent. just that there was a driver, in a train going too fast.. he was probably on a mission from the flying spaghetti monster
[18:43] <diddledan> pasta-martyrdom attracts all sorts these days
[18:45] <zmoylan-pi> damn the spaghetti liberation front...
[18:45] <diddledan> at least they're not as bad as the people's popular front of spaghetti liberation
[18:45] <diddledan> he's evil!
[18:46] <zmoylan-pi> a dangerous man if he has access to a colander...
[19:12] <zleap> hi all, ubuntu 18.04 looks pretty nice
[19:13]  * zleap has made 12 dvd's so far today,  time to start trying to convert people,  at least with LTS the cd's are good for a few years
[19:15] <zmoylan-pi> do a lot of people still have optical drives? bit of a dying tech...
[19:16] <zleap> some desktops still have them]
[19:19] <zmoylan-pi> i just hope you find a home for all the disks you burnt...
[19:20] <diddledan> there's only so many coasters you can make out of discs before it gets stupid
[19:20] <zmoylan-pi> i just keep an iso or 3 on my 128gb usb drive...
[19:22] <zleap> i have updated my usb sticks too,  so ubuntu, ubumtu server and lubuntu
[19:22] <zleap> so today has been productive for a change :)
[20:15] <diddledan> I had a big poo
[20:16] <diddledan> ok, that's a lie, I've actually done sod all
