Phruishi, I was just curious if you had any issues16:48
Phruisim on all AMD hardware16:49
BluesKajPhruis, not anything serious, there were some graphical artifacts a few weks ago, but they've disappeared after the last few upgrades16:49
Phruisthats good16:50
BluesKajthings are getting close to release so the bugs are becoming fewer16:51
BluesKajit's quite stable atm16:51

BluesKajright16:52
Ussatwhats eta on release ?17:02
BluesKaj23rd17:02
lotuspsychjegetting close now :p17:03
pragmaticenigmamore accurately... there isn't a firm release date... it gets released when the bugs are worked out. That April 23rd date was set long before all the worlds current troubles started, and anything could happen during the last few weeks of testing17:07
pragmaticenigma*major bugs are worked out17:07
PhruisDo most canonical developers work in the same office?17:09
pragmaticenigmaCanonical has offices all around the world, and many more community developers contributing17:09
lotuspsychjea alot of jobs also are homebased17:10
lotuspsychjePhruis: are you interested to apply for a job?17:11
PhruisI don't know if I would have the right skills for ubuntu development.  I know php, c++/Qt, python and other database related stuff.17:11
PhruisWould be cool to work on the project though17:12
Phruisright now I am a solo dev for a clinical trials company17:12
Phruiswould be more fun to work with other developers17:13
lotuspsychjethey renewed the canonical jobs website, might wanna take a look17:13
lotuspsychjehttps://canonical.com/careers17:13

lotuspsychjewith traveling on some times..17:26
Groarhi17:28
UssatYa, nothing there really for me atm17:31
GroarI'm thinking about installing Ubuntu on my laptop, but haven't used Linux on a Laptop since 201017:32
PhruisGroar, much has improved since then17:32
GroarPhruis: Well, haven't used windows since 90's. I'm under Windows right now but the only reason is it came preinstalled, I'm moving tomorrow or on Sunday17:33
GroarDoes it normally recognises webcams?17:33
daftykinsprepare a USB flash drive, boot a live session and test - zero need to commit17:34
Groaryeah that's true17:34
Ussator, VM17:35
Groarheh, my wife told me not to install linux because it's harder to use than windows17:35
Groarthen I checked registry and... whoah17:35
Ussatwhich would be my choice17:35
GroarUssat: I'm moving yes or yes. I'm simply trying to check what's going to fail or not to work properly to be ready to fix it17:35
daftykinsVM won't help test the hardware of the system17:35
daftykinsi think depending on your drive size, you should install alongside Windows to start with, then17:36
daftykinsespecially if this machine doesn't have wired LAN built in17:36
GroarI've been using Linux since Ubuntu first was released17:37
GroarI mean... since 200417:37
lotuspsychje!4.0417:37
lotuspsychje!4.1017:37
ubot5Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog) was the first release of Ubuntu. End Of Life: April 30, 2006. See !eol for more details.17:37
Groaryeah, 4.10 had that name for a reason17:38
Groarworst Linux I've ever tried17:38
Groarstill better than windows haha17:38
GroarFrom 7.04 on, Ubuntu was super good imo17:38
GroarSo..., downloading Ubuntu 20.04 beta17:39
Groarlet's see what happens tomorrow17:39
daftykinslet's try and keep the childish OS wars remarks to a minimum17:39
