07:00:30 PMrobgor which is 83.4F
07:00:35 PMTennessee_Frank My "weather" in my clock in the task bar says 37*F but it feels a lot colder then that outside.
07:01:36 PMABQTKY Question #1 for this evening - I have two friends who continue to use NETSCAPE Navigator to do web pages. Might the season 4 shows on Web stuff help them retire their ancient favorite web editor? Thanks!!
07:01:51 PMrobgor TNFrank Damn that is cold
07:01:51 PMTennessee_Frank Xbox, what's an xbox, LOL
07:01:53 PMIMTech5 What's up with the video!
07:02:00 PMTennessee_Frank Now Steam box, that's worth getting
07:02:24 PMTennessee_Frank 37F isn't all that bad, just a cold front moving through.
07:02:45 PM_Jot_ ABQTKY, there are many websites that still say they work best with netscape navigator and not internet explorer
07:03:03 PMRobbieF Problem IMTech5?
07:03:17 PMCirrus_Minor fine here
07:03:20 PM_Jot_ IMTech5, youtube, VLC and radio are all working
07:03:24 PMIMTech5 Youtube froze for a little bit on me.
07:03:40 PMRobbieF Keyword: YouTube :)
07:03:41 PM_Jot_ ah, that's normal with live broadcasts for youtube
07:03:44 PMRobbieF it does that. It's a feature.
07:03:46 PMIMTech5 Just happened again... :(
07:03:51 PMRobbieF try the VLC feed.
07:03:58 PMRobbieF or turn down the bandwidth (gear icon) on YouTube
07:04:00 PMIMTech5 Yeah! LOL!
07:04:01 PMTennessee_Frank If I lived up in near RobbieF I'd love to be a guest host but I don't know if he could take the craziness, LOL
07:04:09 PM_Jot_ hey RobbieF, stop watching hillary on video, you have a show to do!
07:04:19 PMTennessee_Frank YouTube is coming through just fine.
07:04:19 PMCirrus_Minor RobbieF: the vlc feed is audio only ?
07:04:26 PM_Jot_ seriously, it's an important message
07:04:29 PMRobbieF VLC has video too :)
07:04:32 PM_Jot_ VLC is video and audio
07:04:36 PMCirrus_Minor link plz RobbieF
07:04:46 PMRobbieF Cue _Jot_ :)
07:04:48 PMRobbieF it's on the home page
07:04:49 PMCirrus_Minor awesome i prefer external players
07:04:53 PMCirrus_Minor thanks
07:05:09 PMTennessee_Frank Because it's COOOOOOL, that's why.
07:05:45 PMtic-toc Because Robbie likes to roll play star trek
07:05:55 PMTennessee_Frank Who doesn't.
07:06:00 PMABQTKY Neither of them use Internet Exploder and they just use Netscape for editing their sites. I thought Firefox included web editing stuff similar to Netscape. Maybe not. 8-|
07:06:09 PM_Jot_ roleplay? you mean star trek isn't real?
07:06:09 PMTennessee_Frank I'd probably be a Klingon
07:06:36 PMTennessee_Frank Star Trek IS real, Star Wars is NOT.
07:06:37 PM_Jot_ I know firefox has a suite-version but I don't know if it comes with an editor these days anymore
07:06:49 PMTennessee_Frank That's the difference
07:07:51 PM_Jot_ it's a great video Hillary
07:07:56 PMABQTKY Is Ms. Rumball on one of those fancier cameras tonight?
07:08:12 PMRobbieF That's our DSLR ABQTKY
07:08:20 PMRobbieF We can do that when it's not live.
07:09:05 PMTennessee_Frank When I grew up we lived in a paper bag in the middle of the road and we'd have to get up at 3am every morning and lick the road clean then our dad would beat us to sleep.
07:09:24 PMTennessee_Frank :-D
07:09:28 PMCirrus_Minor yay works well in mpv ( new -ish mplayer fork)
07:09:35 PM_Jot_ RobbieF, can you paint the stuff I paid for by pledging in a colour so I can see what I spend way too little on?
07:10:04 PMTennessee_Frank So we have NO Monty Python fans in chat.:-$
07:10:05 PMHillary Oh la la!
07:10:06 PM_Jot_ here is an easy clicky link: http://cat5.tv/studio
07:10:51 PMTennessee_Frank My cat bunny is getting mad at me for not paying attention to him, crazy cat.
07:11:01 PMTennessee_Frank I tried to pet him and he bit me.
07:11:11 PMTennessee_Frank He's evil, pure evil
07:11:15 PMTennessee_Frank but I still love him
07:11:15 PM_Jot_ Tennesee, it thinks RobbieF is another cat in your life
07:11:29 PMIMTech5 TN_Frank: LOL!
07:11:36 PMTennessee_Frank RobbieF is a pretty cool cat. :-D

07:14:43 PMTennessee_Frank Kind of like the door "swoosh" in Airplane 2, LOL
07:14:53 PMBobK54 what? computer america is going to discuss linux MORE than one night per month?
07:14:53 PMCirrus_Minor woop http://postimg.org/image/70oxjp6vb/
07:15:09 PMTennessee_Frank LOL, the "Cat Phone".
07:15:37 PM_Jot_ yeah, you have a 50% chance of getting category5, and 50% of getting catwoman
07:15:54 PMTennessee_Frank Which???? Cat Woman

07:22:55 PMGarbee That !! thing helps me every time I vim an apache config file and forget to become root.
07:23:04 PMABQTKY Sorry about that JV - they talk funny in Tennessee.
07:23:16 PM_Jot_ EricKidd, don't forget, don't touch any keyboard or anything else RobbieF touched (oops, too late) and don't drink from cups he might have drunk from already (oops, sorry). Well, good recovery to you from your cold

07:23:33 PMTennessee_Frank LOL, we talk "normal" down here, ya'll are the ones that talk funny.:-D
07:24:20 PMTennessee_Frank When you're in the normal terminal "sudo" is your friend
07:24:47 PMABQTKY Hey, I'm FROM Noo Yawk - they way we talk there ain't funny at all!
07:25:13 PMTennessee_Frank ABQTKY, no, it's not funny at all, it's actually kind of sad.:'(
07:25:15 PMkiwitux In the terminal - "screen" is your friend
07:25:17 PMTennessee_Frank :-D
07:25:18 PM_Jot_ I wonder when you all will start to speak English there over the pond

07:26:30 PMTennessee_Frank LOL, RobbieF
07:26:31 PM_Jot_ have a great evening Hillary, and I donated at htttp://cat5.tv/studio but not enough I'm afraid, we're still a bit short
07:26:57 PMTennessee_Frank I drink so little anymore that one, 24oz glass makes me feel "nice".
07:27:22 PMTennessee_Frank Use to be I could drink a 6 pak and not even feel it.
07:27:32 PMCirrus_Minor https://gist.github.com/cirrusUK/7668765
07:27:36 PMTennessee_Frank Love that show
07:27:41 PMABQTKY Hillary, it's mostly just zeroes, right? All we need is to come up with some of them! 8-)
07:28:21 PMTennessee_Frank The "machine" is in the Cloud now
07:28:21 PMTennessee_Frank It's Free
07:28:31 PMTennessee_Frank I have a gesture for MicroSoft but it's not a nice one. LOL
07:29:16 PMABQTKY So, ah, Frank - what do you have for Ballmer??
07:29:17 PMTennessee_Frank Bad enough with people running around with Bluetooth head sets talking to themselves let along having someone wave their arms around like a nut.
07:29:37 PMTennessee_Frank Define "Ballmer"
07:30:10 PMABQTKY Ballmer is the soon to be former President of MickeySoft.
07:30:13 PMCirrus_Minor bawbag
07:30:33 PMkiwitux So it's going to be less of the "Ministry of Silly Walks" and more of the "Ministry of Silly Waving of your Arms"?
07:30:44 PMTennessee_Frank Ahh, ok, well, nothing, since he's the X CEO.
07:31:03 PMCirrus_Minor ++ the matrix ghost image
07:31:16 PMTennessee_Frank kiwitux, LOL, glad to see someone else is into Monty Python
07:31:37 PMNELSON_ Hey Everyone in the Chat Room, Don't Forget to listen to Robbie on The Computer America Radio Show tonight at 10 PM www.computeramerica.com
07:31:41 PMTennessee_Frank LOL, nope, not Mario
07:31:52 PMGarbee RobbieF: I can vouch, Mario *can* cause that kind of reaction.
07:31:54 PMNELSON_ Hey Everyone in the Chat Room, Don't Forget to listen to Robbie on The Computer America Radio Show tonight at 10 PM www.computeramerica.com
07:32:28 PM_Jot_ Nelson, for those in areas where it is already 1:30am, how long from now is that?
07:33:08 PMGarbee RobbieF: No, it is a violation of the ToS by uploading video with that kind of content to their servers.
07:33:11 PMBobK54 Jot: 2.5 hours from now.
07:33:20 PMGarbee So you violate their ToS, they restrict your usage.
07:33:22 PM_Jot_ thanks BobK :)
07:33:25 PMkeckeckec RobbieF: Depends on what they agreed to when they signed up
07:33:47 PMTennessee_Frank Ditto EricKidd
07:33:49 PMGarbee Which imo is stupid, they should take down the video and possibly stop further uploads if it happens too much from the same user. But not go any further than that in restrictions.
07:34:03 PMTennessee_Frank Still, Bill Cosby was funny as heck and he didn't cuss
07:34:15 PMGarbee Tennessee_Frank: but, he was/is Cosby.
07:34:18 PMGarbee That speaks for itself.
07:34:37 PM_Jot_ wow, RobbieF only lost his hair like last year
07:34:50 PMTennessee_Frank Yep, Frank Calenodro(spelling) doesn't cuss much and he's uber funny.
07:35:15 PMTennessee_Frank Nooooo, my eyes.
07:35:28 PMBobK54 OUCH!!!!!
07:35:32 PMjvillanueva What the best distros I'm planning to replace my windows...
07:35:33 PMTennessee_Frank brb, need to refill my beer.
07:35:36 PMTennessee_Frank awk
07:35:38 PM_Jot_ it's really a failure of raising children properly, because profanity isn't bad in some situations but they do it all the time
07:35:41 PMrobgor RobbieF what are you doing to us two episode in a row with W
07:35:57 PMGarbee jvillanueva: Try a few. Linux Mint, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Lubuntu, Xubuntu, Fedora, etc.
07:36:05 PMjvillanueva Can I have one Tennesee :-)
07:36:10 PMGarbee The *Ubuntu ones are varients on Ubuntu, with different desktops.
07:36:11 PM_Jot_ maybe point linux would also be good to try
07:36:26 PMjvillanueva Linux Mint I guess.
07:36:58 PMTennessee_Frank Ok, I'm back
07:37:02 PMBobK54 200+???? I get 10. TEN. Wow.
07:37:04 PMjvillanueva speed test is cool.
07:37:22 PMTennessee_Frank Sure jvillanueva, but it's only a virtual beer
07:37:23 PMGarbee netalyzr.icsi.berkeley.edu
07:37:30 PMGarbee That one is far more detailed.
07:37:37 PMTennessee_Frank I keep drinking like this and I'll have to P
07:37:45 PMGarbee And gives you useful information for tracking down buffer bloat on your router.
07:37:54 PMNELSON_ DON'T FORGET TO LISTEN TO ROBBIE ON THE COMPUTER AMERICA RADIO SHOW TONIGHT AT 10 PM WWW.COMPUTERAMERICA.COM
07:38:07 PM_Jot_ yes, we heard Nelson, no need to shout
07:38:11 PMGarbee NELSON_: Are you a bot?
07:38:12 PMTennessee_Frank WHAT, CAN'T HEAR YOU
07:38:15 PMTennessee_Frank LOL
07:38:25 PMTennessee_Frank I love chat rooms, they're so much fun.
07:38:42 PMTennessee_Frank I'd have No Social Life without them
07:38:47 PMTennessee_Frank :'(
07:39:01 PMTennessee_Frank 8.8.8.8, Google, or 8.8.4.4
07:39:19 PMCirrus_Minor namebench ?
07:39:23 PMGarbee Cirrus_Minor: yup.
07:39:27 PMCirrus_Minor handy
07:39:40 PMTennessee_Frank I noticed that my Internet Provider is throttling me back on downloads.
07:39:44 PMGarbee Not sure if that is what Robbie is showing.
07:40:05 PM_Jot_ RobbieF, I always use https://www.grc.com/dns/benchmark.htm
07:40:06 PMTennessee_Frank I was downloading a couple three .iso's the other day and they started out fast then started getting slower and slower.
07:40:22 PMjvillanueva I'm always use http://www.webpagetest.org
07:40:33 PMGarbee jvillanueva: That doesn't test your DNS.
07:40:34 PMkeckeckec _Jot_: I've had good success with GRC's too
07:40:38 PMGarbee Against multiple providers.
07:40:41 PMTennessee_Frank RobbieF, I love it that you're running Point Linux, it makes it so easy for me to follow along.
07:40:47 PMGarbee Just one web page, and isn't even meant for this use case.
07:41:42 PMkeckeckec And grc's works in Linux under wine
07:41:54 PMGarbee ah, he is showing this tool because it is simpler.
07:41:59 PMGarbee automaticlly doing the DNS change.
07:42:05 PMchaslinux have to be really careful these days, seen conduit come with software on cnet download.com.
07:42:16 PMGarbee GRC's tool doesn't do that, It just gives you the server.
07:42:24 PMjvillanueva cool
07:42:50 PMTennessee_Frank EricKidd, yep, depends on how many are on the system
07:43:19 PMTennessee_Frank Some times of the day my sudo freshclam update is uber slow, other times it's fairly fast
07:43:42 PMTennessee_Frank Of course that's only when I install a new op system, once I do it once it's automatic
07:44:04 PM_Jot_ RobbieF, do remember changing DNS servers can subject you to malware, and private information being leaked due to addresses being send etc
07:44:25 PMTennessee_Frank I'd still like to get a router that I can put dd-wrt on
07:44:32 PMTennessee_Frank LOL
07:44:40 PMTennessee_Frank At the begninning
07:44:51 PMTennessee_Frank And he's in the chat room too
07:45:14 PMTennessee_Frank Don't go Raid, go FreeNAS with ZedFS
07:45:23 PMTennessee_Frank ZedFS is self healing
07:45:40 PM_Jot_ self healing is bad, you want to know when something is failing
07:46:03 PMTennessee_Frank _jot_ yes, but it will let you know AND keep your data safe
07:46:22 PMTennessee_Frank Need to google Allan Jude, he's really into FreeBSD and ZedFS
07:46:47 PMrobgor why doesnt he go zfs
07:46:55 PMTennessee_Frank I'm not really up on this stuff but I know enough to be dangerous. LOL
07:46:55 PM_Jot_ that's why I use unraid, it protects against a complete drive failure, and if anything else goes wrong, I did it wrong myself already so I know it was wrong :P
07:47:10 PMTennessee_Frank Ditto robgor, ZedFS would be a good way to go
07:47:12 PMrobgor EricKidd why doesnt he go zfs
07:48:08 PMchaslinux video eorkstation non high def
07:48:18 PMTennessee_Frank RobbieF, Ditto on the SSD, Intel has some unlocked ones that you can over clock
07:48:25 PMchaslinux workstat
07:49:26 PMTennessee_Frank RobbieF, he's saying Work Station
07:49:31 PMjvillanueva Robbie virtualization is cool but it running slow here philippines. What the best guide how to make it fast?
07:49:50 PMchaslinux sorry on tablet....

07:51:08 PMNELSON_ Hey Everyone in the Chat Room, Don't Forget to listen to Robbie on The Computer America Radio Show tonight at 10 PM www.computeramerica.com
07:51:22 PMTennessee_Frank chaslinux check out TechSNAP on Jupiter Broadcasting. Allan Jude does a lot with ZedFS and FreeNAS
07:52:49 PMTennessee_Frank Need to put a laser in the webcam so you can zap em' LOL
07:53:10 PM_Jot_ how about a little remote controlled C4 or whatever it is called :)
07:53:40 PMrobgor someone in china I think had a iphone stolen and the thief sent them back 13 pages of contacts
07:54:08 PMCirrus_Minor see the hacker who had his macbook stolen
07:54:14 PMCirrus_Minor did a talk at defcon
07:54:19 PMCirrus_Minor superb
07:54:25 PMTennessee_Frank I put Ubuntu 13.10 with Gnome 3 on my "play" laptop the other day. Actually kind of like it

07:56:24 PMCirrus_Minor iirc it has a package in arch,ubuntu etc
07:56:30 PMjvillanueva Robbie virtualization is cool but it running slow here philippines. What the best guide how to make it fast? Were using TuCloud
07:56:49 PMIMTech5 chaslinux: dnsjumper
07:57:02 PMTennessee_Frank Don't forget the Static strap
07:57:09 PMGarbee Tennessee_Frank: meh.
07:57:13 PMchaslinux thanks IMTech5
07:57:15 PMTennessee_Frank LOL< EricKidd
07:57:21 PMBobK54 jvillanueva: how much RAM have you dedicated to the VM?
07:57:34 PMjvillanueva 2.5GB
07:57:37 PMIMTech5 chaslinux: No prob...
07:57:38 PMGarbee BobK54: Depends on OS.
07:58:01 PMjvillanueva we have window 7
07:58:03 PMGarbee Oh, wait, read that improperly.
07:58:16 PMTennessee_Frank We used to always have to use our wrist straps so we'd not "zap" stuff we were working on
07:58:23 PMBobK54 wow, certainly sounds like enough. my system has 4GB and I set my VM's to use 50%. Not super snappy but tolerable.
07:58:30 PMTennessee_Frank Samba rocks
07:58:42 PMGarbee Tennessee_Frank: Yea, I've messed with my system's CPU loads without a strap.
07:58:43 PMTennessee_Frank I put it on my three laptops and have them linked through my router
07:58:50 PMGarbee Just ground yourself before you touch it on the case and you're good.
07:59:13 PMGarbee jvillanueva: What CPU is in the system?
07:59:17 PMTennessee_Frank Sometimes you can get away with it, I've installed memory without one but I always touch some metal on the case to discharge myself before I touch the memory
07:59:45 PMGarbee haha, I don't even ground when messing with memory.
07:59:47 PMjvillanueva it is i4 4GB of RAM.
08:00:04 PMGarbee jvillanueva: an i4 should do well.
08:00:06 PMTennessee_Frank A lot depends on your climate, here in Tennessee it's humid so we don't get a lot of static, in AZ it's uber dry so static is every where
08:00:12 PMGarbee Won't be the fastest, but should be bearable.
08:00:22 PMTennessee_Frank RobbieF, you really need a Hot Toddy pard.
08:00:25 PMGarbee Yea, I'm in VA.
08:00:33 PMGarbee Typically humidity isn't an issue.
08:00:35 PMTennessee_Frank RobbieF you need to sweat that cold out of your system
08:00:36 PMBobK54 jvillanueva; uh oh, if you are running win7 as the host, maybe 1.5G is too small to run properly?
08:01:04 PMTennessee_Frank Va should be plenty humid, so you'd not have to worry as much Garbee
08:01:14 PMgpop7 Thats all folks. See you next week same time same station. Great show.

08:03:37 PMTennessee_Frank Everyone is leaving the chat room like rats leaving a sinking ship, LOL
08:04:15 PMGarbee yea. after-show exodus.
08:04:30 PMTennessee_Frank LOL, don't they know after the show is when all the fun starts.
08:04:38 PMGarbee I'm out soon.
08:04:41 PMGarbee Need rest.
08:04:49 PMTennessee_Frank I need to P, LOL
08:04:50 PMrats_ like rats- LOL
08:05:05 PMTennessee_Frank Almost drank a 40 during the show.
08:05:09 PMrats_ good Show TY Cat5
08:05:16 PMTennessee_Frank Hey rats, LOL
08:05:39 PMTennessee_Frank I'll watch the show back tomorrow on Roku to see all that I've missed by being in chat. LOL
08:05:47 PMrats_ Hello Tennessee_Frank
08:05:52 PMRobbieF Thanks all!
08:06:04 PMTennessee_Frank RobbieF, really, trust me on this, you need a Hot Toddy and some bed rest so that cold doesn't get any worse
08:06:10 PMTennessee_Frank Howdy rats
08:06:33 PMCirrus_Minor ++ Tennessee_Frank hot toddy is a scots favourite too
08:06:35 PMjvillanueva virtualization more bandwidth cost...
08:07:08 PMTennessee_Frank Put a good size glass of water in a pot, add some whiskey, lemon juice, sugar and boil it. Drink it as hot as you can stand it then jump in bed with three or four blankets on you and sweat it out
08:07:11 PMCirrus_Minor bottle of scotch in teh microwave
08:07:17 PMCirrus_Minor works every time
08:07:27 PMTennessee_Frank I've sweat out a many of a cold with a hot toddy
08:07:54 PMTennessee_Frank Not crazy about Scotch but Ky. Bourbon or good Tennessee whiskey works wonders
08:08:23 PMTennessee_Frank Ok, I'll brb, I need to talk to a man about a horse
08:10:30 PMTennessee_Frank Wow, not much went on while I was gone/
08:10:57 PM_Jot_ we're all in suspense about the horse
08:11:29 PMTennessee_Frank LOL, saying "I need to go talk to a man about a horse" is a nice way of saying " I have to go PEE." LOL
08:11:33 PMEricKidd You were only gone a minute and thirty-seven seconds
08:11:49 PMTennessee_Frank LOL, bathroom is close by EricKidd, LOL
08:12:11 PMTennessee_Frank It was a Long minute and thirty-seven though
08:12:12 PM_Jot_ that's what you get from drinking water with water in it, then you need a bathroom closeby
08:12:29 PMTennessee_Frank Water heck, fish have sex in water, I'm drinkin' beer. LOL
08:12:41 PMTennessee_Frank W.C. Fields
08:13:01 PMTennessee_Frank All the youngsters don't know who W.C. Fields is probably
08:13:32 PM_Jot_ I remember the expression and his name but no idea who it is
08:13:36 PMTennessee_Frank or Mae West
08:13:45 PMTennessee_Frank or the Marx Brothers
08:13:47 PM_Jot_ I do remember her, she's an actress
08:13:55 PM_Jot_ not the marx brothers obviously :)
08:14:07 PMTennessee_Frank I love the Marx Brothers, there super funny
08:14:29 PMTennessee_Frank Harpo is my fav. he didn't talk but he was really funny
08:14:46 PM_Jot_ its definatly not easy to do such things
08:15:28 PMTennessee_Frank Kids today just don't appreciate the old movies because they're in black and white and no one wants to watch them but they were awesome
08:16:09 PMTennessee_Frank I saw that they were actually bringing out a new film in black and white, go figure
08:16:18 PMTennessee_Frank Bruce Dern is in it
08:16:39 PMTennessee_Frank Ok, am I talking to myself here or what. LOL
08:16:48 PMTennessee_Frank or do I just type that fast.
08:17:03 PM_Jot_ I'm here, I just am thinking about stuff :)
08:17:26 PMTennessee_Frank I think about stuff and things and other stuff
08:17:44 PMTennessee_Frank Mostly which Linux Distro I'm going to play with next.
08:17:57 PMTennessee_Frank There were a few epic fails over the last week
08:18:26 PM_Jot_ I still want to make a working linuxfromscratch build, I haven't managed to do that, but I'm sure that's just me not being patient enough
08:18:43 PMTennessee_Frank Magaeia didn't even load, just sat at the splash screen. Kwheezy was WAY to busy even for a KDE desktop. Xubuntu and Lubuntu, nope.
08:19:13 PMTennessee_Frank So far my absolute fav is Point Linux and a close second right now would be the Ubuntu/Gnome 3 install on my #3
08:20:03 PMTennessee_Frank Point Linux 2.2 "Taya" has been the best install I've ever had. Totally trouble free, easy to use and get around on, very intuitive.
08:20:50 PM_Jot_ There's at least many to try if you like that kind of thing :)
08:21:04 PMGodmin is that what Robbie is using now? Point Linux/
08:21:24 PM_Jot_ it is the OS on the demo machine
08:21:26 PMTennessee_Frank I noticed on Distro Watch that there's a lot of dead links for linux Distros, they really need to clean up their site
08:21:44 PMGodmin oh
08:21:52 PMTennessee_Frank Yep. RobbieF turned me on to Point Linux in Ep, 290 and I've not looked back
08:22:27 PMTennessee_Frank It just works for me. the MATE desktop is super easy to use and being Debian 7.2 based it very stable
08:22:49 PMTennessee_Frank I've had zero problems with it
08:22:51 PM_Jot_ it's definatly a good one, otherwise RobbieF wouldn't have recommended it
08:23:06 PMTennessee_Frank It just works, plain and simple
08:23:21 PMGodmin i used one that he talked about on a older show, i cant remember what it was right now..but then i thought i noticed he said he was using something else
08:24:39 PMTennessee_Frank I've tried quite a few Distros and so far Point Linux hasn't let me down. Like I said, Ubuntu/Gnome 3 would be second but I really do like the Gnome2/MATE desktop a bit better.
08:24:40 PM_Jot_ yes, after ubuntu changed a lot he went looking for something else
08:24:55 PM_Jot_ I can't remember which one he used after that and before point linux though
08:24:59 PMTennessee_Frank Ubuntu isn't bad as long as you stay away from Unity
08:25:45 PMTennessee_Frank You can get KDE, LXDE, xfce or Gnome 3 with Ubuntu and it's not too bad but Unity, well, let's just say it's not my cup of tea.
08:26:02 PMTennessee_Frank KDE wouldn't be too bad if it were easier to use.
08:26:19 PMTennessee_Frank Stuff I do in MATE just won't work in KDE even though they look a lot alike
08:27:19 PMrats_ Tennessee_Frank: What stuff I use KDE alot
08:27:45 PMTennessee_Frank rats, KDE didn't look too bad but it's just not as easy for me to use as MATE.
08:28:22 PMrats_ That's fair - use what works best
08:28:29 PMTennessee_Frank I think if I'd use KDE more I'd probably get use to it but I'm just so use to MATE it's really hard to switch
08:29:11 PMrats_ I'll try MATE someday maybe
08:29:13 PMTennessee_Frank Gnome 3 is uber easy to use, just icon based, point and click stuff. I'm going to see if my brother wants me to install Ubuntu/Gnome on his desktop computer over Thanksgiving.
08:29:27 PMTennessee_Frank MATE is really easy, just like Gnome 2
08:29:37 PMTennessee_Frank Easy to move things around and do stuff.
08:29:40 PMTennessee_Frank I love it
08:30:04 PMRobbieF hey guys, sorry I'll be absent a bit. Just gotta get my head clear and get ready for tonight's interview on Computer America. Will anyone be joining me? I'll be back in a few minutes: gonna eat a quick dinner.
08:30:28 PMTennessee_Frank Post a link and I'll try to be there RobbieF
08:31:06 PMTennessee_Frank Long as it doesn't cut into "Dancing with the Stars" LOL
08:32:37 PM_Jot_ I'm here, playing some games I bought, don't worry, won't forget to watch like last week when I played just a little civ5 before the show
08:33:00 PMrats_ Tennessee_Frank: www.computeramerica.com should do it
08:33:02 PMTennessee_Frank Ahh, there you are. I was just going to say, if I don't post here no one does. LOL
08:33:08 PMTennessee_Frank thanks rats
08:33:50 PMrats_ yw
08:33:52 PMTennessee_Frank Still can't get that link to work
08:34:25 PMTennessee_Frank Ok, had to play with my NoScript
08:35:07 PMTennessee_Frank Hey, they got a chat room too. Wonder what the irc link is so I can add it to Pidgin
08:37:00 PMTennessee_Frank Wow, chat just died.:'(
