BluesKajoop sToronto :-) ...14:18
BluesKajyup, I didn't vote his party ..he has no experience in politics on that level, he was a Toronto city councillor before running for the conservative party's leadership, but hemanaged to win that by too many cnadidates splitting the vote14:21

BluesKajyeah,  goinf downhill fast14:24

ducasseBluesKaj: cool, congrats - denon makes good stuff16:31
BluesKajducasse:  yeah, my 13 yr old Harman Kardon still sounds good but I can fix some clunky switching problems between audio and video sources an d still have decent sound16:36

daftykins:D16:42
daftykinsi wish i could get rid of the idle buzz on my bedroom NAD16:42
daftykinsit happens even with speakers detached, so must be the transformer16:43
ducasse\o daftykins - how's you?16:43
daftykinspretty good thanks! lazy day today as i'm mostly waiting on other peoples actions to progress some work16:43
daftykinsjust plugged in my old das keyboard for a test :>16:43
daftykinshow's things your end?16:43
ducassemy laptop keyboard is on the fritz - one more reason to consider an upgrade. thinking of buying a refurbished thinkpad.16:45
daftykinsah yes you mentioned finding the local reseller, sounds like a plan16:46
ducasseother than that luna and me are good :)16:46
daftykinsi'm still waiting on a client deciding what to do about a system that's failing16:47
daftykinsfools continue to use it despite knowing it's at deaths door16:47
ducassei should do something about my fileserver as well, but money16:52
BluesKajducasse yes i have a pair  home built pilips speakers from the 80's and they still sound good17:07
BluesKajphilips rather17:07

daftykinshehehe17:48
EriC^!ping18:47
ubot5pong!18:47
lotuspsychjenew factoid19:03
lotuspsychje!netplan19:03
ubot5Netplan is a network configuration abstraction renderer which uses YAML descriptions of a network to work with either a NetworkManager or Systemd-networkd "renderer". More information at https://netplan.io/19:03
blackflowa factoid about snaps would be useful too.19:10
daftykinspretty sure i'd seen one19:12
lotuspsychje!snappy19:12
ubot5Ubuntu Core is a rendition of Ubuntu with transactional updates using "snappy". For discussion and support, please visit #snappy and see http://www.ubuntu.com/snappy/19:12
lotuspsychjeblackflow: you can request ideas to factoids if you like19:14
blackflowyah but snappy ain't it snaps, it's a distro.19:14
daftykinsmight be another one, search the db19:15
lotuspsychjeblackflow: how would you describe a snap factoid?19:15
blackflowlotuspsychje: "Snaps are containerised software packages similar to flatpaks or appimage. For more info, see https://snapcraft.io"19:16
lotuspsychjegood idea19:16
daftykinscomparing to alternatives isn't an explanation though19:16
lotuspsychjeyou know howto request?19:16
daftykinsthe best descriptions are free from existing examples19:17
blackflowdaftykins: but gives people an idea. "containerized software packages" is the base explanation, imho.19:17
daftykins"Snaps are images of software including all of a programs dependencies needed to run, avoiding the hassles of incompatible libraries on a host. For more info go to..."19:17
blackflow"images of software". what's that :)19:18
blackflowphotos?19:18
lotuspsychjelol19:18
daftykinshehe, a fair point, but i think you can see what i'm getting at too19:18
daftykinsan ideal would probably be neither of ours19:18
lotuspsychjeblackflow: /query ubottu and !snap is your-description-here19:19
lotuspsychjeblackflow: when found as good idea, the ops will add it19:19
blackflowlotuspsychje: done, thanks.19:20
lotuspsychjetnx you19:20
daftykinsnow sit back whilst they remain pending for 6 months19:20
