7:17:27 PMsparklyballs penny a note
7:17:45 PMTheFu Robbie will need to pay the AI tax.
7:17:57 PMTheFu If he puts composers out of work.
7:20:29 PMTheFu Verdi and Mozart in the background? Other Beetles?
7:21:05 PMsparklyballs justin beiber top left
7:21:09 PMGarbee SashaD-G6: After the show, if you can remember, let Robbie know I'm sorry I couldn't be around for the show except a few minutes.
7:21:28 PMJeff_Weston No worries garbee
7:21:29 PMGarbee *super* tired (and hungry) after working on an authentication issue for 4 darn hours.
7:21:39 PMSashaD-G6 I will. I hope you are well!
7:21:54 PMGarbee Yea, I'll be fine. Just need to get a little food then right to bed.
7:21:57 PMSashaD-G6 I understand hungry lol
7:22:07 PMTheFu Taco night?
7:22:13 PMsparklyballs and now we are back to food
7:22:14 PMGarbee He just asked if I'd be around earlier. So figured I'd at least drop by for a few minutes.
7:22:21 PMSashaD-G6 Okay...have a great restful night
7:22:33 PMGarbee Ya'll too. We can all use some good rest!
7:22:36 PMsparklyballs it only took 20 minutes this time SashaD-G6 to get back to food
7:22:53 PMGarbee Well, I took it back to food.
7:23:19 PMTheFu Anyone named their computers after foods?
7:23:43 PMJeff_Weston Like....apple?
7:23:43 PMSashaD-G6 :) im trying to be good! I want this interview to get alll the attention it deserves :)
7:23:46 PMsparklyballs only my server has a "name"
7:24:18 PMsparklyballs the hostnames for everything else are purely descriptive
7:25:10 PMTheFu "burrito" **is** descriptive.
7:25:37 PMsparklyballs not relative to a computer
7:25:51 PMTheFu Guacamole ...
7:26:07 PMSashaD-G6 Stop it. Im so hungry!!!
7:26:07 PMsparklyballs guacamole is a rdp type app
7:26:10 PMTheFu Taht was an IBM p25 system
7:26:12 PMSashaD-G6 Mmmmmmm
7:26:22 PMTheFu RS-6000. Really slow.
7:26:57 PMsparklyballs my server is "the raidiator"
7:28:01 PMTheFu There are samples on the website.
7:28:08 PMTheFu 2-3 min lengths
7:29:24 PMsparklyballs if you die that many times SashaD-G6 it's going to play a sample of a laugh
7:30:01 PMTheFu Or something from Tom & Jerry / Road runner.
7:30:03 PMSashaD-G6 Im a panicky button masher. Im actually the worst.
7:30:37 PMsparklyballs you can't be any worse a gamer than me though
7:31:02 PMTheFu SashaD-G6: I'm worse. Can only do strategy games, nothing time-critical.
7:31:57 PMTheFu G-new ....
7:32:30 PMTheFu guh-new (gnu)
7:32:56 PMSashaD-G6 Thank you...it comes up alot in that story
7:33:11 PMsparklyballs antelope
7:33:41 PMTheFu not G-New ... sorry. "guh-new"
7:34:06 PMtechstudier sounds good
7:34:21 PMSashaD-G6 Im going to work at not ruining it
7:34:25 PMtechstudier movie music
7:34:42 PMDooley_da_Vulcan sounds like a score from a video game sample video
7:34:43 PMTheFu Feel like riding a horse over a mountain.
7:35:55 PMsparklyballs don't kill any uk placenames this week SashaD-G6
7:36:30 PMTheFu pulse-audio hits again!
7:42:03 PMTheFu Fact: Earth losses about 90 tonnes of H2 yearly ... burns away ... not enough gravity.
7:42:49 PMTheFu so not really burning ... just floating into space.
7:43:24 PMsparklyballs they're pricing themselves out of mass market though
7:44:16 PMgarywhite who is?
7:44:23 PMsparklyballs red
7:44:44 PMTheFu In 4 yrs, it will be $2K.
7:45:14 PMTheFu But James Cameron probably has it already shooting Avatar 3-6 on it.
7:45:38 PMsparklyballs it could be vaporware which would make the name hydrogen apt
7:45:50 PMDooley_da_Vulcan SashaD-G6 went to food
7:46:05 PMTheFu Maybe it will freak out the NSA's data storage to where they give up?
7:46:25 PMTheFu So ... that truck ... Australia long distance "road trains"?
7:46:59 PMTheFu Auf Deutche, bitte
7:48:06 PMTheFu Have the truckers doing remote management from a central office somewhere. Hourly breaks without stopping.
7:48:36 PMTheFu But how do they get through weigh stations at every state/border?
7:49:06 PMsparklyballs it's still a truck though however clever it may be we need a new idea completely instead of reinventing the same thing over and over
7:49:50 PMTheFu Trucks are the only way to deliver goods to non-metro areas, cheaply.
7:50:24 PMtechstudier the intel i9 looks like its going to be very expensive
7:50:31 PMsparklyballs na use giant catapults
7:50:37 PMTheFu Catch!
7:51:32 PMsparklyballs geoff is against robots making pizza but is perfectly happy for computers to put composers out of work
7:51:48 PMsparklyballs jeff not geoff
7:51:56 PMsparklyballs my dads name was geoff
7:51:59 PMTheFu Perhaps Intel can put them into their security group so their CPUs don't allow remote access?
7:52:20 PMsparklyballs feed is jumpy
7:52:41 PMTheFu vdieo is fine here.
7:53:34 PMTheFu 4.11 ... Ryzen support. Excellent!
7:54:50 PMtechstudier amd have always had a good price point not to expensive
7:55:11 PMTheFu Ryzen isn't 125W - nice.
7:56:32 PMTheFu 'dist-upgrade' may push Ubuntu users on the xx.xx.1 release to xx.xx.2 (which may be undesirable).
7:56:45 PMTheFu Don't forget to do the intro ....
7:56:55 PMTheFu SashaD-G6:
7:58:41 PMTheFu I like hiking too. SashaD-G6
7:58:57 PMsparklyballs you're doing pub crawls all wroing SashaD-G6
7:59:00 PMsparklyballs there is only apple cider
7:59:13 PMsparklyballs pear "cider" is perry
7:59:42 PMSashaD-G6 Thank you TheFu :)
8:01:04 PMSashaD-G6 I would die on a pub crawl....im a lightweight
8:01:16 PMTheFu Changes LTS to 9 months.
8:01:54 PMTheFu Agree with patching 100% ... just the dist-upgrade might impact people negatively running servers.
8:01:57 PMGWG SashaD-G6: I don't pub at all.
8:03:11 PMTheFu No.
8:03:26 PMTheFu No GPU support for video codecs.
8:04:10 PMTheFu GPUs on a laptop that old jsut can't do it.
8:05:22 PMTheFu Probably better off getting a cheap Android tablet ($50 Amazon Fire 8 HD) ... which has h.264 video support built-in.
8:08:18 PMTheFu SashaD-G6: But Micky's laptop is very old.
8:08:48 PMTheFu The GPU in it won't have mpeg2 or h.264 HW support. THe GPU will need to handle it.
8:11:42 PMDennis_Kelley I vote for a two hour show Jeff_Weston, SashaD-G6
8:12:25 PMCee128d Gnome 3 isn't even close to being a Ferrari. It's more like a Yugo.
8:12:31 PMsparklyballs don't have a single windows instance
8:12:45 PMTheFu We are the edge case here.
8:12:57 PMsparklyballs haven't for 10+ years
8:13:32 PMTheFu Try to introduce any Linux to someone who doesn't work with computers daily.
8:13:38 PMTheFu It isn't easy.
8:13:45 PMsparklyballs for desktops i'm on mac
8:13:58 PMCee128d I can't switch to Linux full time due to lack of appropriate Linux software. Have to use Windows to get work done.
8:14:01 PMsparklyballs servers are linux
8:14:36 PMTheFu I use Windows about 10 minutes a day. Linux the rest of the day to get work done.
8:15:00 PMtechstudier great show as always
8:15:02 PMTheFu Just depends on what "work" is.
8:15:16 PMsparklyballs i want to like linux deskop but i haven't found one that doesn't eventually become annoying
8:15:24 PMTheFu SashaD-G6: Segment intros!!!
8:16:33 PMTheFu sparklyballs: Tried a Mac for 2 weeks, full-time. It took lots of self-control NOT to throw it against the wall. Very frustrating.
8:16:56 PMsparklyballs i feel that way about windows
8:17:06 PMsparklyballs but it takes about 10 minutes only lol
8:17:27 PMTheFu Everyone has different tastes and experiences. Which is fine.
8:19:26 PMTheFu sparklyballs: Solbu: we should record these and ...
8:19:49 PMsparklyballs blackmail ???
8:19:59 PMTheFu I never said that.
8:20:06 PMsparklyballs i did lol
8:20:07 PMTheFu ;)
8:20:30 PMTheFu guh-night.
8:21:39 PMsparklyballs bye bye folks
