Ender2070you try arch linux?Nov 20 00:49
sebsebsebthat has been suggested to me, but  when someone tried to help me get it set up in a vm. that took a while doing the basics.  and then  Virtualbox closed on meNov 20 00:50
sebsebsebsince the kernel wasn't liked in the vm or whateverNov 20 00:50
sebsebsebI don't really want to customize a distro that much, I want pretty good defaults, and then I don't mind doing basic customizing here and there, and installing loads of programs of courseNov 20 00:51

_goblin"If you can’t make it good, at least make it look good."Nov 20 01:26
_goblinhow true that is of MS. (IMO)Nov 20 01:26
schestowitz_goblin: what do you think is the personal impact of this on you?Nov 20 01:27
schestowitzLet me rephrase itNov 20 01:27
DaemonFCI have two cavities that need filledNov 20 01:27
schestowitzCause I address a line too far up (catching up)Nov 20 01:27
DaemonFCthere went my savingsNov 20 01:27
schestowitzWhat is the impact of your reach on how you view your posts?Nov 20 01:27
schestowitzThe Bill Gates quote it true, but the fact that he said it is a shot in the footNov 20 01:28
schestowitzIt's a case of keeping up appearance or saving faceNov 20 01:28
DaemonFCI'm going to try to find a dentist that does silver fillingsNov 20 01:28
schestowitzGates is also enamoured w/ "Evangelisation"Nov 20 01:28
DaemonFCthose white composite fillings are more expensiveNov 20 01:28
schestowitzHe keeps talking about it in memosNov 20 01:28
schestowitzAnd now he applies it to himself, glorifying himself using PR firmsNov 20 01:29
_goblinschestowitz: Sorry I didn't understand the question....Nov 20 01:29
schestowitzDaemonFC: you need teeth? :-pNov 20 01:29
_goblinschestowitz: are you talking about the service/force remark?Nov 20 01:29
DaemonFCschestowitz: just fillings in two molarsNov 20 01:29
schestowitz_goblin: never mind, it's too profound, I guessNov 20 01:29
DaemonFCit's probably going to run around $210 near as I can tellNov 20 01:29
schestowitzI just found that some people in this situation changed prioritiesNov 20 01:30
DaemonFCmaybe moreNov 20 01:30
schestowitzIncluding some relativesNov 20 01:30
schestowitzWHose family saw the back or their heads more than face (due to computer use after work)Nov 20 01:30
DaemonFCabout $210 if I get silver fillings, about $280 if I get white fillingsNov 20 01:30
schestowitzI never had fillingsNov 20 01:30
DaemonFC'I figure if nobody can see them anyway, why spend another $70?Nov 20 01:30
schestowitzSee? You eat too much CANDY!Nov 20 01:31
DaemonFCproblem is that not all dentists will do silver anymoreNov 20 01:31
DaemonFCno, I don'tNov 20 01:31
DaemonFCI try to go sugar free on everything I canNov 20 01:31
schestowitzFirst seizures, now this...Nov 20 01:31
schestowitzs* hits the fan, eh? :-(Nov 20 01:31
DaemonFCschestowitz: YesNov 20 01:32
DaemonFCoh well, at least I have enough cash on hand to get this over withNov 20 01:32
schestowitzAnd you're alive, tooNov 20 01:33
DaemonFCnothing like having to make payments on something for 3-4 monthsNov 20 01:33
schestowitzThe insurance companies love youNov 20 01:33
schestowitzYou fund them wellNov 20 01:34
DaemonFCschestowitz: What insurance?Nov 20 01:34
schestowitzAnd they can use the money to employ more astroturfersNov 20 01:34
DaemonFCI don't have insuranceNov 20 01:34
schestowitzHere's how they workNov 20 01:34
schestowitzInsurance companies don't want bad PRNov 20 01:34
schestowitzSo they conspire to put 10% each inside some new armNov 20 01:34
DaemonFCof course they don'tNov 20 01:34
schestowitzSomething with a name that's OrwellianNov 20 01:34
schestowitzLike "health for the people"Nov 20 01:34
schestowitzAnd then they recruit protestors whom they payNov 20 01:35
schestowitzTo block reform for healthcare for the peopleNov 20 01:35
DaemonFCI may buy a dental policy, get this done, then drop itNov 20 01:35
DaemonFCI dunno if I can thoughNov 20 01:35
schestowitzVassal by circumstantial illness Nov 20 01:35

schestowitzDaemonFC: you're an opinionated man, you should join movements for change, not just whineNov 20 01:39
DaemonFCschestowitz: Probably, but it wouldn't do any goodNov 20 01:46
DaemonFCyou have the Republicans, who want to shoot down all health reform, and the Democrats who want to bastardize it and tell you what you need and what you'll getNov 20 01:46

DaemonFCYou can use Windows, which is clunky, slow, full of bugs, and insecure. You can use Linux, which is incompatible with at least 30% of the programs you use, documentation is sometimes leaving things to be desired, and problems while less frequent, are harder to fix. You can use a Mac, which is just weird. You can use "Chrome OS" and have a browser and nothing else.Nov 20 05:02

schestowitz"When John D. Rockefeller was feared and famous as the master monopolist of American industry, he used to hand out shiny new dimes to the urchins gathered around him on the street. Most Americans were not charmed by this philanthropic gesture. Rockefeller became a living symbol of miserly indifference. Nor will Lloyd Blankfein, CEO of Goldman Sachs, win much public affection for his charitable capitalism."Nov 20 14:16
