[00:25] but "sudo apt full-upgrade windows10" doesn't work [00:26] you must log out as ghost user first? [00:26] oh [00:26] you know, user 0 [00:26] maybe that's what I'm doing wrong [00:26] I have user -1... does that work? [00:26] oke, put 2 fingers in your nose, and turn your mouse upside down [00:26] then reboot by pulling the powercor...wait [00:27] -1 ? [00:27] how do i turn my mouse upside down and pull the powercord if my fingers are in mah nose? [00:27] man user -1 ; are you pregnant? [00:27] no no put your fingers in your mouse and turn your nose upside down [00:27] ah, makes more sense [00:28] dang-nab-it...the mouse bit me [00:28] * pragmaticenigma goes and gets badages and a hammer [00:28] so ... um ... anyone know where I can get a new mouse, relatively cheap these days? [00:29] sometimes 2nd hand stores have nice mouses [00:30] eewww... don't want a mouse that someone used while watchin naughty film [00:30] brand new please [00:30] :-D [00:31] yes, i know, the mousewheel is the dirtiest place on earth [00:31] for sure! [00:31] .. right after the human mind [00:31] hop on your bicycle, i have a trackpad somewhere [00:34] 52.3929173 N 4.6250156 W [00:34] uh ohes... I'm negatives longitudes... that's gunna be a long bike ride [00:45] don't be so hard on yourself I'm sure you could be more positive if you put your mind to it [00:46] also I think you'll want to bring some goggles and flipperdeals [00:46] carefull for the sharks! [00:46] they're more scared of you than you are of them [00:47] say that to the 36 shark attacks this past month on the eastern seaboard of the north american continent [00:48] yeah, i read that, knee deep water .. [00:49] and what about those asian carps ... [00:49] are they not tasty? [00:50] carp doesn't typically make for good eating, but they make a fine fertilizer for farm fields I hear [00:52] I guess dependin on who you ask, they might make a decent meal: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/eat-the-enemy-asian-carp_n_6324896 [00:53] Carp == pressure cooker == fish patties :) [00:54] dog food is what my dad would call that [00:55] pragmaticenigma: Truth ! [00:57] mcdonals calls it chicken mc nuggets [00:59] here we have 'kibbeling', fish pieces in crust .. [00:59] nobody can tell what fish and what part :-D [01:00] https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a3/Kibbeling_001.JPG [01:03] or whether [01:03] maybe veggie food is much more common than we all think [01:04] anything deep fried and served with a mayo/ranch type dressing is probably hard for anyone to resist [01:05] Ravigott sauce... the secret [03:06] good morning to all [03:06] bed bugs? [03:06] hi lotus [03:07] hey OerHeks [03:07] i had my hours, all good :p [08:10] Good morning [08:11] Good morning [08:46] Heya [11:32] Howdy folks [11:32] hello BluesKaj [11:32] hi EoflaOE [11:33] BluesKaj: Launchpad got attacked by spammers because I have seen questions and bugs that are spammy [11:34] that comes with the territory, it's not new [11:35] BluesKaj: Yes. I know that is not new. [11:35] even linux users can be spammers [11:36] BluesKaj!!!! Hello!!!! [11:36] My dear brother! [11:36] >:) [11:37] BluesKaj: Yes. And the questions to "Launchpad itself" are filled with "Please remove spam..." and hi marcoagpinto [11:37] hi [11:37] hi marcoagpinto [11:39] I have made a blog site which is focused on tech and Ubuntu. Do you want to check it out? [11:39] me? [11:39] >:) [11:40] I have been working on the GB speller + thesis since 6am [11:40] I have no life :( [11:41] Yes. Do you want? [11:41] sure [11:41] https://eofla.wordpress.com [11:42] Buaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa [11:42] it has a story... the Professor said that my thesis isn't a story :( [11:43] reading your page makes me realise how the professor was right [11:43] marcoagpinto: Thank you so much. [11:43] the text flows naturally in your page [11:44] damn... it is so well written [11:45] marcoagpinto: Yes. I proofread as I write. [11:45] yes, so do I in my thesis and use a grammar checker, LanguageTool [11:46] marcoagpinto: Nice. I found a bug in Nautilus on Ubuntu 19.10 [11:47] I haven't used my VMs because of the Kernel 5 issues [11:47] but I guess 18.04 won't update it since it is the ESR [11:47] LTS [11:48] OK. My Ubuntu VM on VirtualBox is stable. [11:51] EoflaOE: You would be the right person to improve my thesis... if I win the EuroMillions on Friday I will pay you :p [11:51] jk [11:51] :) [11:51] OK. [12:06] EoflaOE: https://i.imgur.com/udCcMqT.png [12:16] thesis time... [12:16] * JimBuntu slides a frosted mug of root beer to marcoagpinto [12:21] no alcohol for marco [12:21] slide it to lotus [12:24] oh boy... :-( [12:24] its true, he takes meds... [12:44] that was root beer, not fermented beer [12:46] >:) [12:46] I don't drink alcohol [12:46] I take medicines [12:47] pragmaticenigma: ^ [12:47] * lotuspsychje burps lol [13:09] Buaaaaaaa... I am so stressed... >:) [13:09] ./join #irc-therapy [13:10] :p [13:10] I will try to nap in two hours [13:11] marcoagpinto: Take two hours of this, and call the doctor the next morning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SB-qEYVdvXA [13:12] ohhhh... cats [13:12] :) [13:12] I too have cats at hom [13:12] home* [13:12] you didn't bring them with you to work? [13:12] every place needs a shop cat [13:13] what? [13:13] I am at home [13:13] I only work on the weekends [13:13] how are you stressed??!!??!! [13:13] and last weekend I was depressed and didn't go... and the doctors are in vacation [13:13] pragmaticenigma: too much going on [13:14] marcoagpinto right there with ya [14:43] i'm a bit late on this but ... DebConf talks with videos: https://debconf19.debconf.org/talks [16:09] which releases are on the 5.0 kernel? I've been paying so little attention I didn't even know 5.0 was out. [16:09] nicomachus: 19.04 and 18.04 with hwe [16:10] lotuspsychje: huh. Pretty sure I have hwe on my 18.04 but I'm still on 4.15 [16:10] brb gotta eat first [16:13] nicomachus: if you installed bionic from the start you have 4.15 [16:14] nicomachus: if you download the iso currently you got 5.0 now [16:14] gotcha [16:14] nasty nasty HWEs [16:14] ;) [22:16] RIP https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/cnazeh/osdisccom_is_no_longer_in_business/ [22:40] have any of you use me_cleaner against a cherry trail and can discuss their experiences? [22:40] or any cpu really [23:06] I wouldn't test it on any system I needed to work.. [23:07] is this something that's meant to disable the Intel Management Engine? [23:11] yes it is [23:11] i'm visiting a friend wh's got a matching flasher, so this seems worthwhile. [23:12] and, yes, i don't depend on this system to work. [23:13] heh i'm running prime95 on the Dell Precision laptops i got for a friend and client recently, the 45W hex core i7 coffee lake CPUs are almost hitting 100 deg C on a couple of cores in one of them [23:21] better don't touch them! [23:21] is this with the latest bios installed? [23:29] first thing i do with new kit :) [23:29] BIOS, ME, thunderbolt firmware... the list goes on [23:30] normally i'd be happy to pop them open and replace the paste in case it'll help [23:39] i wouldn't even know how to upgrade thunderbolt firmware - but then i don't have any systems which have this. [23:40] just Windows utilities provided on Dell's downloads page for the model [23:41] amusingly, the tool first powers on the controller - the OS suddenly goes "oh hey, new hardware..." and sets it up, so the updater fails as it doesn't find the device within a given time window... then you run it a second time and it's all fine [23:41] i see. so... if they get this hot then they're hopefully meant to? what do those specs say? [23:42] well one of them is nudging its' Tj Max so that doesn't seem too ideal, i'm tempted to have a go at the paste but i've got the service manual open and it looks a decent bit involved compared to usual [23:42] :-/ [23:43] plus... it feels kind of wrong to mess when it's new and under warranty :D [23:43] i guess you can't custom control the fan speeds either [23:43] wouldn't want to fight its' own choices really, they're definitely running high :D [23:44] huge twin fan twin heatpipe design too, so i'm really glad i didn't go with the other models that have far worse cooling
