MinceRsebsebseb: one of those things is not like the othersOct 17 16:16
sebsebsebMinceR: oh?Oct 17 16:16
MinceR:>Oct 17 16:16
DaemonFCI have a soft spot for catsOct 17 16:16
sebsebsebWindows?Oct 17 16:16
DaemonFCand most dogsOct 17 16:16
MinceRno, "woof woof meow meow :D"Oct 17 16:16
sebsebsebyep dogs and catsOct 17 16:16
sebsebseb:DOct 17 16:17
DaemonFCMinceR: There are some dogs which are fairly intelligent and some that aren'tOct 17 16:17
sebsebsebDaemonFC: and some that are more behaved than othersOct 17 16:17
DaemonFCI used to have an Australian Shepherd Oct 17 16:17
DaemonFCshe was a good dogOct 17 16:17
MinceRDaemonFC: i have yet to find out about intelligent dogsOct 17 16:17
sebsebsebanyway one of our current dogs, well yeah I like him really, but he is the one that tends to annoy me, the other one on the other hand doesn't tend to :)Oct 17 16:17
sebsebseb,but one of them tends to start all the barkingOct 17 16:17
sebsebseband suchOct 17 16:17
DaemonFCsebsebseb: I can't stand those little ones that act like someone gave them amphetamines all the time Oct 17 16:18
DaemonFCjump up and down on you Oct 17 16:18
MinceRthen again, dead dogs do tend to be smarter than living onesOct 17 16:18
DaemonFCtear furniture upOct 17 16:18
DaemonFCpoop in the houseOct 17 16:18
sebsebsebDaemonFC: oh the small, old women and such kind of dog?Oct 17 16:18
MinceRso there's one way to improveOct 17 16:18
sebsebsebtiny little thingsOct 17 16:18
DaemonFCthen there are ones that are just bred to be vicious Oct 17 16:19
sebsebsebDaemonFC: some dogs are so tiny, that if not careful, might end up walking on themOct 17 16:19
DaemonFCthe police like themOct 17 16:19
DaemonFCbut there are many breeds that are intelligent and mild manneredOct 17 16:19
DaemonFCthose are the ones that are best kept as petsOct 17 16:19
DaemonFCMinceR: When I say intelligent I mean for a dog. You know how humans have an intelligence range and some are profoundly retardedOct 17 16:20
DaemonFCmost are averageOct 17 16:20
DaemonFCand a few are above averageOct 17 16:20
sebsebsebDaemonFC: at times I might still miss our old dog, she died last yearOct 17 16:20
DaemonFCdogs and cats have their own rangeOct 17 16:20
MinceRah, so it's a difference i wouldn't notice :>Oct 17 16:21
sebsebsebDaemonFC: and these latest two we have, really can't replace her, and can never replace one dog with another propery enough anyway really, but it's differnet with two male dogs who are also brothersOct 17 16:21
DaemonFCsebsebseb: my dog died last yearOct 17 16:21
DaemonFCshe was 16 years oldOct 17 16:21
sebsebsebDaemonFC: well mine was 12 or something like that, got her as a puppy back in 1998, well I remember the day still even :DOct 17 16:22
DaemonFCI buried her in at my grandmother's place out in the country, she has several acres of back yardOct 17 16:22

MinceRacquiring knowledge is a waste of time?Oct 17 16:24
sebsebsebto odo with Linux distros and so onOct 17 16:24
sebsebsebMinceR: uh no, butOct 17 16:24
DaemonFCmy dog was living at my mom's house, landlords tend not to take dogs and for a long time I was working 10-12-14 hours a dayOct 17 16:24
DaemonFCyou can't be fair to a dog under those conditions anywayOct 17 16:24
sebsebsebMinceR: most of the  opensource stuff to do with Linux and such on the web now, is just people expressing their opinionsOct 17 16:24
DaemonFCI got Jabba because cats are more independent than dogs areOct 17 16:24

sebsebsebDaemonFC: MinceR as for Unity I am looking forward to lots of other distros providing it in their repos as an option :DOct 17 16:35
sebsebsebDaemonFC: MinceR  it may not really be that good for us to use a lot for example, but it would be good for Desktop Linux as a whole, if loads of distros were able to run itOct 17 16:36

schestowitz"On 9 May 1940, the Philips directors learned that the German invasion of the Netherlands was to take place the following day. Having prepared for this, Anton Philips and his grandson Franz Otten, as well as other Philips family members, fled to the United States, taking a large amount of the company capital with them. Operating from the US as the North American Philips Company, they managed to run the company throughout the war."Oct 17 23:48
