[03:27] <lotuspsychje> good morning
[06:25] <lordievader> Good morning
[06:55] <ducasse> good morning
[09:29] <lotuspsychje> hey Guest93 
[09:30] <Guest93> hi
[09:30] <lotuspsychje> Guest93: ubuntu runs pretty well on newer hardware, but we usualy see users needing higher kernels too on those
[09:31] <lotuspsychje> Guest93: comparing to other distro's its not easy to generalize, you might wanna do so research on benchmarking sites like phoronix
[09:34] <Guest93> i am in marketing and started to learn to code so i can do data analysis later on
[09:34] <Guest93> is ubuntu good for data analysis?
[09:37] <lotuspsychje> Guest93: what kind of programs will you be using?
[09:40] <Guest93> i was thinking atom
[09:54] <marcoagpinto> Heya!
[09:56] <daftykins> marcoagpinto: hey \o what's new?
[09:56] <marcoagpinto> I had the second dose of the vaccine
[09:56] <marcoagpinto> an hour ao
[09:56] <marcoagpinto> an hour ago
[09:56] <daftykins> ah ha - and you're still standing?
[09:57] <daftykins> bbs coffee needs to be made
[10:03] <marcoagpinto> oki
[10:03] <marcoagpinto> I am not standing, I am sat in front of the computer
[10:05] <lotuspsychje> lol
[10:06] <marcoagpinto> lotuspsychje!!!
[10:07] <daftykins> heh not heard that phrase? :)
[10:09] <marcoagpinto> I have been up since near 5am coding and drinking cola
[10:09] <marcoagpinto> :)
[10:09] <marcoagpinto> I came up with a brilliant idea to optimise code
[10:09] <marcoagpinto> :)
[10:09] <marcoagpinto> I wrote it down on paper
[10:10] <marcoagpinto> never-the-less I tested PureBasic 6.0 alpha 3 with the PhD app and it became around two times faster
[10:10] <marcoagpinto> but it is an alpha, I am not going to use it for production
[10:11] <marcoagpinto> it compiles with "optimise" + "C Backend compiler"
[10:12] <marcoagpinto> Buaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa... GCC doesn't support fast strings... Proofing Tool GUI takes the same time to process data
[10:12] <marcoagpinto> :(
[10:12] <marcoagpinto> is there a GCC channel for me to complain?
[10:17] <daftykins> i'm not sure they deserve that :P
[10:20] <marcoagpinto> daftykins: there should be a setting to store the size of strings before them
[10:21] <marcoagpinto> so that every call to the string doesn't start from 1 until the end
[10:21] <marcoagpinto> it is slow as hell
[10:21] <marcoagpinto> Proofing Tool GUI is a linguistic tool, so it is mostly strings
[10:22] <daftykins> i don't do dev at all so *shrug*
[10:22] <marcoagpinto> :(
[10:31] <jluc> Hello
[10:31] <lotuspsychje> welcome jluc 
[10:33] <jluc> not sure this chan is appropriate : i wonder how to calibrate my screen for a quality color workflow using scribus for PDF creation, an xrite color probe and an (industry offset) printer
[10:33] <jluc> ubuntu 20.10 hangs when launching the OS provided calibrate process
[10:34] <jluc> and it looks like there is no DisplayCal version for recent ubuntu
[10:34] <jluc> i'm a bit stuck with ubuntu and that color probe :-/
[10:35] <jluc> and i wonder whether i should send the probe back to shop / or would have more chance with another distro 
[10:36] <daftykins> that seems more like a question for the makers of the product to me
[10:46] <jluc> ok....
[14:19] <tomreyn> !20.10 | jluc
[14:20] <jluc> i managed to install displayCal using the seemingly unofficial flatpak
[14:22] <tomreyn> jluc: sorry, i meant to have the bot point out to you that Ubuntu 20.10 is reaching end of (support) life this July 2021 
[14:22] <jluc> and you had to do the bot :-D
[14:22] <jluc> yes i will up soooooon i hope
[14:23] <tomreyn> :)
[14:26] <tomreyn> 1 week left https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2021-June/000269.html
[14:28] <jluc> but it's summer !
[14:28] <jluc> beach time !
[14:29] <jluc> treking time !
[14:29] <jluc> lazying in the sun time !!
[14:29] <daftykins> even the planning of any one of those would take more than the upgrade would
[14:30] <jluc> :-)
[14:30] <jluc> oh
