schestowitz | re [17:33] <ender_33> daily mail sure, but they don't make up news | Jun 15 18:32 |
schestowitz | ender_33: thanks for the advice on monitors | Jun 15 18:58 |
schestowitz | I guess I'll keep trying to get the old monitor started | Jun 15 18:58 |

TechrightsBot-sc | @satipera (satipera)'s status on Wednesday, 15-Jun-11 17:39:01 UTC - Identi.ca: @schestowitz Yes, but often a quality display will outlast a black hole of other upgrades. | Jun 15 18:59 |

TechrightsBot-sc | @davidgerard: @schestowitz only 2.5 months? open source can't possibly match the fit and finish of proprietary software. | Jun 15 18:59 |
schestowitz | That's for a desktop session with 2GB of RAM and very heavy usage, few memory leaks | Jun 15 19:00 |
schestowitz | Thanks a lot. Catching up after a downtime-ish.... | Jun 15 19:05 |
schestowitz | BTW, in template it should be "Reader's Picks" where "Leftover" goes :-) | Jun 15 19:05 |
qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: davidgerard is obviously referring to Windows... | Jun 15 19:05 |
qu1j0t3 | fit and finish! | Jun 15 19:05 |
*qu1j0t3 giggles | Jun 15 19:05 | |
qu1j0t3 | misfit and finish last | Jun 15 19:05 |
ender_33 | lol fit and finish | Jun 15 19:13 |
ender_33 | windows is far from perfect | Jun 15 19:13 |
schestowitz | qu1j0t3: he uses ubuntu | Jun 15 19:15 |
qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: he was being sarcastic then? | Jun 15 19:15 |
schestowitz | it's david from wikipedia.. sometimes he's on the BBC and stuff. I don't always get his hunour... he comes from Asutralia :-) | Jun 15 19:15 |

schestowitz | qu1j0t3: I think so | Jun 15 19:22 |
schestowitz | I thought you might know him | Jun 15 19:22 |

ender_33 | remember the arianna huffington self-promotion | Jun 15 19:25 |
ender_33 | same thing | Jun 15 19:25 |
schestowitz | BTW, salesman at shop today thought I was Canadian | Jun 15 19:25 |
schestowitz | Lots of people say that, no idea why.. | Jun 15 19:25 |
schestowitz | More people say "Canadian" than "American" | Jun 15 19:26 |
schestowitz | ender_33: she's all that | Jun 15 19:26 |
schestowitz | Her whole site is named after her | Jun 15 19:26 |
schestowitz | Pretending she's a paper | Jun 15 19:26 |
schestowitz | Imagine the Murdoch Post | Jun 15 19:26 |
ender_33 | yeah but look at Sam promoting Bkuhn | Jun 15 19:26 |
schestowitz | Or the Branson Times | Jun 15 19:26 |
schestowitz | Bkuhn comes across as rude | Jun 15 19:27 |
schestowitz | Which Sam? | Jun 15 19:27 |
ender_33 | from itwire | Jun 15 19:27 |
ender_33 | varghese | Jun 15 19:27 |
schestowitz | Oh, Carghese | Jun 15 19:27 |
schestowitz | He does | Jun 15 19:27 |
schestowitz | He's pro FSF | Jun 15 19:27 |
schestowitz | And bkuhn promotes good causes | Jun 15 19:27 |
ender_33 | Bkuhn is one of those extremists | Jun 15 19:28 |
ender_33 | "Bradley Kuhn: a life devoted to Free Software" | Jun 15 19:39 |
ender_33 | thats his job | Jun 15 19:39 |
ender_33 | that would be like devoting an award to a garbage man for his 'life devoted to garbage disposal' | Jun 15 19:39 |
ender_33 | For example, I'm often teased because of my obsession with old hardware, but I've never really considered the idea of switching to a new computer while the one I have still works. I buy all my computers used on the second-hand market; it just feels more "real" that way to me, like picking out a dog at the shelter. | Jun 15 19:42 |
ender_33 | lol | Jun 15 19:42 |
ender_33 | 'I've never really considered the idea of switching to a new computer while the one I have still works. | Jun 15 19:43 |
ender_33 | I would still be running a pentium 2 if I followed his advice | Jun 15 19:43 |
sebsebseb | schestowitz: What's the sky like there right now? | Jun 15 19:56 |

TechrightsBot-sc | @davidgerard: @schestowitz I remember my annoyance when KDE 3.0.0 on FreeBSD required me to restart Kicker every few months :-) | Jun 15 20:17 |
schestowitz | In this case I did need to recover some KDE processes throughout the 2.5 months :-) | Jun 15 20:17 |
ender_33 | I had a smooth transition | Jun 15 20:18 |
ender_33 | thanks to SUSE | Jun 15 20:18 |
schestowitz | :/ | Jun 15 20:24 |
ender_33 | when it was SUSE | Jun 15 20:25 |
ender_33 | or should I say SuSE | Jun 15 20:25 |
schestowitz | I used that too at the time | Jun 15 20:29 |
schestowitz | At home and work too | Jun 15 20:29 |
ender_33 | I liked YAST | Jun 15 20:43 |
schestowitz | Yes, it's still quite goo | Jun 15 20:52 |
schestowitz | Mandriva also has good admin tool | Jun 15 20:52 |
ender_33 | no it doesn't | Jun 15 21:23 |
ender_33 | lol | Jun 15 21:23 |

schestowitz | That looks brilliant so far. I want you to have full editorial control over it. I will only help by continuing to work on other months (to avoid conflicting or duplicate work), the important thing is that this gets documented and organised. It sure makes a difference. | Jun 15 21:24 |
schestowitz | ^^^ woring on Gates Monitor | Jun 15 21:24 |

schestowitz | anyway, mono booters have been quiet | Jun 15 22:06 |
schestowitz | Not just in their hostility towards ciritics | Jun 15 22:07 |
schestowitz | Just in general... quiet, dead. | Jun 15 22:07 |
schestowitz | Novell too | Jun 15 22:07 |
schestowitz | The company seems to have laid of PR | Jun 15 22:07 |
schestowitz | There is one one person who blogs for novell.com re PR and that too it rare | Jun 15 22:07 |
schestowitz | Novell and Mono are sort of kaput | Jun 15 22:08 |
