| Agent-Smith | I was banned from a forum, a Linux distro forum... | May 12 19:48 |
| MinceR | *suse? | May 12 19:48 |
| Agent-Smith | Not Suse | May 12 19:48 |
| Agent-Smith | And I will not mention the forum nor the distro | May 12 19:49 |

| MinceR | :> | May 12 19:49 |
| Agent-Smith | Eheheheheh... | May 12 19:49 |
| Agent-Smith | Not too | May 12 19:49 |
| Agent-Smith | Well | May 12 19:50 |
| Agent-Smith | It boils down to this: | May 12 19:50 |
| Agent-Smith | All the issues I had with that distro | May 12 19:50 |
| Agent-Smith | I was the one to come with the answers and the solutions | May 12 19:50 |
| Agent-Smith | The other folks on the forum would only give me bogus advices | May 12 19:51 |
| Agent-Smith | I guess they were all in good faith | May 12 19:51 |
| Agent-Smith | But, perhaps they lack the knowledge | May 12 19:51 |
| Agent-Smith | But, for my surprise | May 12 19:51 |
| Agent-Smith | Yesterday I came with a problem in Skype V. 2.1.081 for Linux | May 12 19:52 |
| Agent-Smith | And I found the solution. | May 12 19:52 |
| Agent-Smith | And I posted the solution | May 12 19:52 |
| Agent-Smith | And then | May 12 19:52 |
| MinceR | abandon skype? :> | May 12 19:52 |
| Agent-Smith | I got kicked off from the forum... | May 12 19:52 |
| Agent-Smith | No | May 12 19:52 |
| Agent-Smith | You just downgrade Skype | May 12 19:52 |
| Agent-Smith | To version 2.1.047 | May 12 19:53 |
| Agent-Smith | And it works well again. | May 12 19:53 |
| MinceR | as well as skype does, anyway :> | May 12 19:53 |

| cubezzz | not pay | May 12 22:42 |
| DaemonFC | no idea what my dish is pointing at | May 12 22:42 |

| cubezzz | that's almost for certain | May 12 22:43 |
| DaemonFC | but if it could all be free, why aren't there businesses of putting some dish in your yard that can get all the channels for free? | May 12 22:43 |
| cubezzz | FTA dishes are at least 30 inches in diameter | May 12 22:43 |
| DaemonFC | people would pay for those | May 12 22:43 |
| cubezzz | well I think that people don't really know what's possible... they are ignorant | May 12 22:44 |

| DaemonFC | don't they scramble them? | May 12 22:45 |
| cubezzz | no | May 12 22:45 |
| cubezzz | that's why it's called Free-To-Air | May 12 22:45 |
| cubezzz | and you sometimes get retransmissions not encrypted | May 12 22:46 |
| cubezzz | people don't talk about it though :) | May 12 22:46 |
| cubezzz | I know one guy who has 5 sat dishes on his roof | May 12 22:47 |
| cubezzz | ok, another example... | May 12 22:47 |
| cubezzz | you can't get a low power UHF channel, it's too far away | May 12 22:48 |
