[00:11] <Kilroy> is there a version of Ubuntu server that has nothing but bare bones installed? 
[00:13] <mybalzitch> what is it coming with that you don't want
[00:15] <Kilroy> it is just a question, 
[01:33] <mybalzitch> by default the installer prompts you at the end for what packages you want to install beyond the base, like openssh, nextcloud, sabnzbd, etc
[01:34] <Kilroy> I mean nothing, no snap, nada
[01:35] <Kilroy> just enough to boot it up, and that is it
[01:35] <Kilroy> not even internet
[02:10] <mybalzitch> then you probably want debian
[02:10] <mybalzitch> but even thats gonna come with basic drivers
[03:07] <Kilroy> is there a way to see how much power ubuntu server is using on a desktop? b/c my breaker flipped for my room were my server is and I think that might of been the cuase
[03:13] <packet_lozenge> What kind of processing are you doing where you're drawing enough power to trip a 15-20A breaker???
[03:15] <Kilroy> that is also plugged into a power surge 
[03:15] <Kilroy> I think it was dust build up that caused it 
[03:16] <Kilroy> but is there a way to identify how much power my desktop server is using
[03:21] <packet_lozenge> hmm. if it's a server, you can try checking the management interface or the BIOS
[03:21] <packet_lozenge> if you're plugged into a UPS, you should be able to see power draw there as well
[03:22] <packet_lozenge> as for software? hmm... not sure
