| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <Eickmeyer> Congrats on the successful upgrade! And, sorry for being so grumpy earlier. 😳 (re @MrkiMike: When is Focal going out of 'devel', in regard to do-release-upgrade? | 00:26 |
|---|---|---|
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <Eickmeyer> My bionic install (which I upgrade from zesty->artful->bionic) says that there is no 'next release', I had to run d-r-u with -d to get it to upgrade to focal) | 00:26 |
| guiverc | Bashing-om, aarg.. bad err in 19.10 & 18.04 running linux 5.3... it's 19.10 not 19.04 | 03:58 |
| guiverc | & please drop the LTS too - sorry | 03:59 |
| guiverc | minor comment following 9to5 article too | 04:03 |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: Meet me in news channel ? | 04:04 |
| guiverc | sorry everyone, I thought I was in -news, apologies | 04:06 |
| * Eickmeyer points and laughs at guiverc | 04:07 | |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <Zachariah> How can I get into the news channel? I like news. Or other channels that have conversations about Ubuntu that aren't appropriate for this channel? | 04:11 |
| guiverc | :) Eichmeyer | 04:12 |
| Eickmeyer | @Zechariah It's more of a collaboration channel for those that work on Ubuntu Weekly News. | 04:30 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <Zachariah> Oh, the news writers. Got it. | 04:31 |
| Bashing-om | ubuntutestingbot: But if you have an interest in contributing - we *DO* accept help ! | 04:39 |
| Eickmeyer | @Zechariah ^ | 04:48 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <Zachariah> Sure! I'm a Google Local Guide and I already write extensive reviews, so I could certainly write news articles. | 06:23 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <MrkiMike> No worries, my reaction could have been not so 'drama queen' either :) At least you pushed me into right direction! :) Thank you for that, and again, sorry for being annoying. (re @Eickmeyer: Congrats on the successful upgrade! And, sorry for being so grumpy earlier. 😳) | 07:33 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <philipz> got a link to where we can see these reviews (re @Zachariah: Sure! I'm a Google Local Guide and I already write extensive reviews, so I could certainly write news articles.) | 09:49 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <Zachariah> They are Google reviews, so I can share the individual links or screenshot them. I think only I can see my whole list at once. I'll pick out a few good ones and put together a set of links for you. (re @philipz: got a link to where we can see these reviews) | 13:33 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <Zachariah> @philipz I saved several of my reviews to Evernote so I can easily share them. Where do you want me to send them? | 20:08 |
| unRheal | There sure seems to be a whole lot of problems I run into setting up a dev env for Tensorflow2 with CUDA & etc.. settings, no network, USB issues everywhere, and on and on. I don't think 20.04 was ready. (IMHO, of course) | 20:21 |
| unRheal | I meant the problems I ran into compared to the previous 3 installs of 18.04 LTS. I think I'm going for a 4th (5th?) install and back to 18.04 LTS. | 20:24 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <Zachariah> What kind of hardware? I run nVidia and 20.04 has worked pretty well for me. I got it running on a little Lenovo 11" convertible all the way up to a Z390/i5-9400F/16GB/GTX1070 machine. No issues with WiFi, Ethernet, I can play Starcraft II in Wine, and everything seems to work. | 20:30 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <GalacticLion7> Ubuntu Pi is very unstable | 20:32 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <GalacticLion7> It should stay in beta | 20:32 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <Zachariah> I can't speak to Ubuntu Pi, although I have always wanted a Pi. I just have too many x86 computers! And extra Android phones and Android boxes. | 20:34 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <GalacticLion7> The Pi 4 actually has x64 support (re @Zachariah: I can't speak to Ubuntu Pi, although I have always wanted a Pi. I just have too many x86 computers! And extra Android phones and Android boxes.) | 20:44 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <Zachariah> Yeah, that's the one I was going to get. A Pi4 4GB. At one point I was looking into doing IoT stuff and had in mind to hook some sensors to one to build smart devices. I already do SmartThings coding and have apps that talk to smart devices. | 20:51 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <GalacticLion7> I think the Pi Zero would be better for IoT projects (re @Zachariah: Yeah, that's the one I was going to get. A Pi4 4GB. At one point I was looking into doing IoT stuff and had in mind to hook some sensors to one to build smart devices. I already do SmartThings coding and have apps that talk to smart devices.) | 20:54 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <GalacticLion7> I'd only recommend Pi 4 for desktop or server use | 20:54 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <Zachariah> I was going to get one of those, too! For $10, how can you go wrong? | 20:54 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <GalacticLion7> Even better, it's actually $5 | 20:55 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <Zachariah> Oh yeah, they went down in price. I've also seen little battery packs for them, which makes sense if you want to integrate into something that moves around, like a smart-backpack or something like that. | 20:56 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <GalacticLion7> Cool! Have you also considered Arduino, too? | 20:58 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <Zachariah> Yes. I have a friend who got into the Arduino and those tiny 1" screens. He built a digital dash for a 1950 Ford Truck he is restoring. He programmed his own little Ford logo so when it starts up it looks like a new one. We have a 2020 F-150 so we know exactly what that looks like, but he did it all himself! | 21:00 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <GalacticLion7> That's a great idea! Does it connect to the car itself? | 21:01 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <Zachariah> Yes. It reads the speed, oil pressure, battery voltage, etc. | 21:03 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <Zachariah> | 21:05 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <Zachariah> @GalacticLion7 We've gone outside of what is appropriate for the channel. No one else is here, but if you want to continue this conversation, feel free to DM me. | 21:12 |
| ubuntutestingbot | [telegram] <GalacticLion7> Fair enough. Thank you for sharing! | 21:13 |
