Kilosian says coffee makes your system mvery acid15:26
LangjanYes not good news15:26
Kilosbeetroot leaves in salad good to fight acid15:26

LangjanI love many things that I must stay away from15:28
Langjanor pay the price15:29
Kiloseish15:29
Kilosi read the prostate pills side effects the other day and one is it can encourage heart attacks15:29

LangjanMessing again, it does not change nor do the ticks tick or untick15:42
pavlushkaKilos: Langjan you have to have apt-mirror package installed to choose mirrors using CLI15:46
pavlushkaKilos: Langjan and then edit "nano /etc/apt/sources.list" and put there at the beginning "deb mirror://mirrors.ubuntu.com/mirrors.txt bionic main restricted universe multiverse" and "ctrl+x and confirm by 'y'"15:50
Kiloseish thats hard work15:50
* pavlushka talking about 180415:51
Kilos16.04 15:51
pavlushkaand then just run "apt-mirror" it will choose the mirror based on your geographical location15:51
Kilosbut he unticked most of his repos because of an issue and not sure which ones to tick again15:51
pavlushkaKilos: Langjan no tick, untick, you have to add this lines15:52
pavlushkas/this/these15:52
