[13:57] <EoflaOE> You are welcome. I am doing fine roo
[13:57] <EoflaOE> too*
[14:12] <JonelethIrenicus> I heard we may be getting automatic gpu switching based on the type of application for nvidia optimus based laptops?
[14:12] <JonelethIrenicus> is this true?
[14:17] <pragmaticenigma> JonelethIrenicus: Please know that everyone in #ubuntu and other #ubuntu-* related channels are volunteers. That said, I take the approach of I'll believe it when it happens and not pay much mind to announcements about potential up and coming features
[14:18] <BluesKaj> JonelethIrenicus, don't know, where did you hear/see that?
[14:19] <JonelethIrenicus> BluesKaj: it was from nvidia i believe some beta driver but said implementation still had to be done on linux
[14:19] <JonelethIrenicus> BluesKaj: wish i had a link
[14:19] <JonelethIrenicus> maybe i can dig it up
[14:24] <lotuspsychje> JonelethIrenicus: we recently had an article for new nvidia drivers i recall
[14:26] <lotuspsychje> JonelethIrenicus: https://news.softpedia.com/news/nvidia-releases-new-linux-graphics-driver-with-many-improvements-and-bug-fixes-527209.shtml
[14:30] <JonelethIrenicus> i will take a look
[14:32] <BluesKaj> lotuspsychje, page won't load
[14:32] <lotuspsychje> working here BluesKaj, vpn related?
[14:37] <pragmaticenigma> link worked for me as well
[14:38] <BluesKaj> lotuspsychje, dunno, tried both FF and chrome
[14:38] <lotuspsychje> must be your end BluesKaj
[14:38] <lotuspsychje> dns?
[14:42] <JonelethIrenicus> you using a terminal client? i know sometimes it cuts the links off
[15:38] <lotuspsychje> EoflaOE: UWN material? https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2019/09/ubuntu-dock-trash-external-drives
[15:42] <EoflaOE> lotuspsychje: Yes, because it's Ubuntu related
[16:29] <lotuspsychje> jeremy31: pinged by ioria bug #1842686
[16:35] <EoflaOE> hello BluesKaj
[16:35] <BluesKaj> hey EoflaOE
[16:36] <EoflaOE> How are you doing?  I am doing fine
[16:37] <BluesKaj> doing fine here too, trying to find the bug in Konversation irc client that doesn't hold my socks5 proxy pw setting.. beginning to piss me off
[16:39] <EoflaOE> BluesKaj: Thanks for discovering a bug. If you can't find it, report it.
[16:41] <EoflaOE> BluesKaj: You still can't open Softpedia?
[16:42] <BluesKaj> EoflaOE, unfortunately it's an old recurring bug that was reported ys ago, was fixed for a short time but it's back, and I'm fed up with reporting it and complaining to the konversation chat ...they just ignore my complaints
[16:43] <BluesKaj> i switched vpn severs, the toronto server is obviously blocked due to abuse I guess, so the montreal server works well
[16:44] <EoflaOE> BluesKaj: I mean report it to Ubuntu Launchpad's Konversation bug. Are you sure that your complaints are ignored in Launchpad?
[16:44] <BluesKaj> about softpedia ^
[16:44] <BluesKaj> yes I'm sure
[16:45] <EoflaOE> BluesKaj: OK. So you still can't connect to Softpedia?
[16:46] <BluesKaj> yes I can connect thru the montreal server as i posted above
[16:48] <EoflaOE> BluesKaj: Some servers might have problems. Which VPN are you using?
[16:49] <BluesKaj> think the toronto server is carrying more loads since the montreal server seems to be a bit faster loading pages
[16:49] <BluesKaj> PIAvpn
[16:49] <EoflaOE> BluesKaj: Paid plans? Or just free?
[16:50] <BluesKaj> it's a paid plan,  free vpns are awfully slow
[16:52] <BluesKaj> they're working on the wireguard protocol atm, but it won't be ready for a while afaik
[16:54] <BluesKaj> their openvpn for linux is very well done including an unthrottled0 socks5 proxy server in the netherlands for DLing large files (read torrents)
[16:56] <BluesKaj> the socks5 proxy works very well in qbittorrent, which can accommodate their settings
[16:58] <EoflaOE> BluesKaj: I use ProtonVPN with a free plan to get around Forbidden 403 errors in some sites, because of sanctions.
[17:01] <BluesKaj> nice
[17:03] <EoflaOE> Thanks.
[18:27] <JimBuntu> FWIW: If I'm being a jerk in #ubuntu, please alert me
[18:51] <hggdh> JimBuntu: not really, almost ;-)
[18:52] <JimBuntu> thanks hggdh, I didn't want to cross that line, but I figure walking up to it is OK once in a great while, when needed\
[18:52] <hggdh> and the best channel would probably be elsewhere, anyways (I frankly have NO idea which browser still accepts Java)
[18:52] <hggdh> JimBuntu: and yeah
