Scary_GuySo, I have the strangest issue.  apt/apt-get error out aborting after whatever % and aptitude/synaptic just crash out.  Anyone have any ideas?13:39
Scary_GuyI'm not even sure why this is doing this.  I haven't screwed with any repos (before it started, anyway)13:39
_stink_disk space?13:46
Scary_Guy7.9g/64g13:47
_stink_maybe check dmesg | tail?14:05
Scary_GuyI don't see anything weird14:09
Scary_GuyRan it twice, the output didn't change14:10
Scary_GuyI'm probably overdue for a reinstall anyway.14:10
jrwreni have an install that is 13+yrs old. they are never required.14:18
Scary_GuyThey are when you fnord things up as much as I do :/14:24
jrwrenha!14:27
jrwrenis anyone excited over the nvidia hybrid graphics issues being fixed in 5.7?14:41
rick_h_yay? /me doesn't own any but always better to support more stuff14:42
cmaloneyum, sure? :)14:42
jrwrenwhoa... i just got that system76 email for lemur pro... now I really want one.16:08
cmaloneyIs that a laptop / desktop?16:09
jrwrenlaptop.16:09
jrwren2.2lb16:09
jrwrenmy form factor, much like a macbook air.16:09
cmaloneyOh, nice16:14
cmaloneyI need to replace my X120e at some point16:15
cmaloneybut damn if that laptop isn't perfect in every other way16:15
Scary_GuyI've heard S76 described as "old Apple" so I'm excited to see what they're doing.16:15
cmaloneySeriously, if they managed to figure out how to replace the guts of an X120e with a new mobo / more memory I'd be all over it16:15
cmaloneyalso make it a free upgrade and replace my careful sticker collection on the lid16:16
cmaloneythat's all I ask16:16
Scary_GuySwap lids16:16
cmaloneyNah, I want someone in the factory to carefully remove all of the stickers and replace them. ;)16:16
jrwrenthis new lemur pro uses coreboot and open firmware.16:17
cmaloney<316:17
jrwrenprobably the first production laptop with those features that isn't stupid priced.16:17
jrwrenbecause it is also very reasonably priced.16:17
jrwrenyou can spec it out with max CPU (4.9Ghz) and max ram (40GB) for $1900 with a 1 TB NMVe16:17
jrwreneven the default $1099 option is damned sweet.16:18
jrwrenif I wasn't poor right now I'd totally buy it.16:18
cmaloneyYeah, this is really nice16:19
cmaloneyThat's actually not bad for price16:20
cmaloneyI'm surprised.16:20
cmaloneyUsually on a System76 laptop I get sticker shock16:20
cmaloneyBut 24GB, i7 with 500GB nvme is under $160016:21
cmaloneynot bad at all16:21
* cmaloney makes contemplating noises16:22
cmaloneyIf we ever have in-person CHC again I'm totally thinking about getting this as a little present for myself16:22
cmaloneyDisabled ME16:23
cmaloney<316:23
* cmaloney puts this in my laptop wishlist16:23
jrwrenyup, going on my wish list... if I have money left over after paying taxes and maybe if I still get a bonus this year.16:25
cmaloneyheh16:25
cmaloneyJoDee's got temp full-time at the moment, but academia is weird yo16:25
cmaloneyso we're saving up everything in case things go weird over the summer / fall16:26
cmaloneyPlus, quarterly taxes are fun16:26
cmaloney"I have $$$ in the bank" *writes check* I have $ in the bank16:26
cmaloney.$$ in the bank. ;)16:27
Scary_Guy"files list file for package 'libdiscid0:amd64' is missing final newline"  Progress?16:28
jrwrenyes, becasue that is really easy to fix.16:29
jrwrengo add the newline16:29
Scary_Guylol16:30
greg-gcmaloney: my next laptop I'm going to get a skin so I can save the sticker collection16:56
jrwreni like ending a sticker collection and starting new.16:56
greg-gjrwren: yeah, same, just keep the old skin+stickers on the wall/in a drawer somewhere for old times sake :)16:57
jrwrenah, yeah, that would be cool.16:59
jrwrenyou could take a pciture and make a print17:00
greg-gI think lmorchard does this17:00
greg-ghe's a collector extraodinar though17:00
cmaloneyYeah, Les is way more into stickers17:09
cmaloneyI mean, worst case I'll just re-buy the ones that I like on RedBubble17:09
cmaloneyand collect anew.17:10
jrwrenbuy stickers?!?! :)17:10
jrwreni look at my current laptop back and stickers and there is very little love.17:10
jrwrenI love the one that i bought on my first canonical EU trip from some nursing students in brussles.17:10
cmaloneyYes, I buy stickers to support artists17:10
jrwrenand I love some of hte local businesses that i have stickers, but the rest I dont' really care about17:11
cmaloneyI've peeled a few off of this laptop17:11
cmaloneyin part because a) the company changed, b) the site no longer works, or c) needed to make room17:11
cmaloneyThe only one that I'm particularly salty about is O'Reilly.17:12
cmaloneybut w/e. Happy business-plan-change.17:12
cmaloneyI'm sure the conference business is really working out right about now17:13
jrwrenwhich is good IMO.17:13
jrwreni've always prefered teh non-profit community run conferences.17:13
jrwrenfor profit conference business has always been a scam IMO17:13
cmaloneyI really enjoy this, actually17:13
cmaloneyI've been to a few panels that I wouldn't otherwise attend17:14
cmaloneyLike Libreplanet17:14
jrwrenoh, you've joined some previously-not-virtual events?  cool!17:14
cmaloneyAnd yeah, for-profit conferences are kind of a waste17:14
cmaloneyYeah, mostly for curiousity to see how they're run, but also because the topics were interesting17:15
cmaloneyI didn't realize that Zoom had some break-out room functionality. That's pretty nice17:15
cmaloneyIt's a little ham-fisted though17:16
cmaloneybut when people ask me about these things I have some answers17:16
jrwrenwhoa... TIL: https://rhx.github.io/SwiftGtk/17:48
jrwrenIt's about It's about It's about it's about it's about it's about it's about it's about us17:50
jrwrenI t ' s   a b o u t   I t ' s   a b o u t   I t ' s   a b o u t   i t ' s   a b o u t   i t ' s   a b o u t   i t ' s   a b o u t   i t ' s   a b o u t   i t ' s   a b o u t   u s17:50
greg-gcmaloney: the breakout room feature is, I'm pretty sure, the only thing that's good about Zoom and keeping it in use within Wikimedia. If we can make something else provide that, without making us self-host (because reasons), I think I could get us to switch.18:04
jrwreni've been meaning to get a jitsi instance up... but I've been lazy18:04
rick_h_yea, there's talk of charming jitsi18:05
jrwrencharming eh? that's interesting.18:07
jrwrenhere... let me do that for ya: https://hub.docker.com/u/jitsi/  ;)18:07
rick_h_hah18:18
greg-g[Global Notice] Hello all, this is just a reminder that this weekend, planned Saturday April 11th early UTC afternoon, we will purge unused nicks, accounts and channels. Please see https://freenode.net/news/scheduled-maintenance-services-database-spring-cleaning for details and what you need to do in order to keep your rarely used nicknames.18:58
greg-gTime to get those fresh cool nicks you always wanted but they weren't available ^18:59
cmaloneyheh19:03
cmaloneyTotally getting that CountFloyd nick I always wanted19:03
cmaloney(note: totes kidding)19:04
* rick_h_ is hoping to get rick_h without tails19:08
greg-g"greg" is still in use, sadly19:10
rick_h_yea, I'm not thinking I'll get "rick"19:13
rick_h_though that would be boss19:13
rick_h_ugh, this whole "keep doing one job while ramping up on another" is for the birds. /me vents19:14
cmaloneyrick_h_: Ugh, that really sucks19:34
jrwrenthis isn't hte first time you've done this there, is it?19:35
jrwreni'm trying to remember how you transitioned when I was there.19:35
rick_h_normally just moved I guess19:40
rick_h_it's odd to be on calls for both teams at the same time19:40
rick_h_or maybe it was just last time I moved since I had no responsibilities19:40
