MinceRwarranty policies might also matterApr 14 00:00
DaemonFCI think I've said this several times now, but I try to avoid name brand things when I canApr 14 00:00
MinceRfor example, in terms of pixel flawsApr 14 00:00
DaemonFCMinceR, That might not matterApr 14 00:00
MinceRit might, if you get an lcd tv with a hot subpixelApr 14 00:00
DaemonFCmy Visa card gives me a better warranty on my TV than the company who made the TV didApr 14 00:01
MinceRhow legal is that?Apr 14 00:01
ZiomatrixDaemonFC: I remember for every good lesser brand like Sylvania there is in-store brands like Insignia and Dynex.Apr 14 00:01
DaemonFCMinceR, Totally legalApr 14 00:01
DaemonFCI get a two year warranty from Visa that even covers damage that was my faultApr 14 00:01
DaemonFCeven if it takes $20 in interest payments to get the TV fully paid off, the warranty is worth more than thatApr 14 00:02
*lenngray has quit (Ping timeout: 265 seconds)Apr 14 00:02
DaemonFCMinceR, They make an obscene profit from people that just make the minimum payments each month and take forever to get their card paid offApr 14 00:03
DaemonFCso they can cover "incentives" like a no fault 2 year warrantyApr 14 00:03
*InTentsCity (~m4a79xtde@unaffiliated/intentscity) has joined #techrightsApr 14 00:03
MinceRoh, so it's not canceling the payment but an actual official warranty?Apr 14 00:04
DaemonFCyes, if I buy a TV with my Visa card, I get their extended warrantyApr 14 00:04
DaemonFCeven if I pay them in full next month and avoid all interestApr 14 00:05
DaemonFCMinceR, Also, if I rent a car with the Visa card, I can waive the rental car company's damage waiver and Visa will cover my up to the full value of the carApr 14 00:05
DaemonFC*meApr 14 00:05
MinceRicApr 14 00:06
MinceRthat's niceApr 14 00:06
DaemonFCthat card is definitely worth having even if I have a balance sometimesApr 14 00:06
DaemonFCMinceR, I plan to rent a car for an extended trip sometime late this yearApr 14 00:06
DaemonFCso by putting it on my card, I get to decline the damage waiver that would cost me like $12 a dayApr 14 00:07
DaemonFC(that's what it was last time I rented a car anyway)Apr 14 00:07
DaemonFCand then I get cash back on the rental car at 1.5%Apr 14 00:07

*Aondo_ (~stian@195.159.93.132) has joined #techrightsApr 14 00:08
DaemonFCthey end up paying some people to use their cardApr 14 00:09
DaemonFCbecause they know most people won't get enough from the incentives to outweight the interest they payApr 14 00:09
*kari_ (~kari@81-175-129-99.bb.dnainternet.fi) has joined #techrightsApr 14 00:10
DaemonFCMinceR, each month I probably spend $150 on groceries and maybe another $30 on gas, normally anywayApr 14 00:10
DaemonFCso I apply the $8-9as an account creditApr 14 00:11
DaemonFCthen pay the rest back at no interestApr 14 00:11
MinceRgnApr 14 00:11
DaemonFCat the end of the year, Visa sends me a form 1099Apr 14 00:11
DaemonFCand I get to declare the $100-150 I got in credits as taxable incomeApr 14 00:12
DaemonFCblehApr 14 00:12
DaemonFCI'm still ahead thoughApr 14 00:12
DaemonFCI end up using that card for all the stuff I can't really get out of paying and just apply the credits to my account and pay the rest off each monthApr 14 00:13
*Ziomatrix (~who@pool-98-109-75-160.nwrknj.fios.verizon.net) has left #techrightsApr 14 00:13

*sebsebseb has been trying out Mate in Mint 12 this week, rather impressed with Mate :)Apr 14 06:42
sebsebsebGnome Shell with the Mint extensions is ok as welApr 14 06:42
formic_it literally started ignoring the existence of files you're trying to access via the command lineApr 14 06:42
formic_also moved a file in the cli using mv and it disappearedApr 14 06:43
formic_ubuntu is noobifiedApr 14 06:43
cubezzzyeah I never touch ubuntuApr 14 06:43
sebsebsebUbuntu is trying to aim them selves at the masses, hence  propritary software for sale in software centre, Ubuntu One, music  store as well, and yep UnityApr 14 06:44
DaemonFCit's easy to add Synaptic and Gdebi backApr 14 06:44
sebsebseband well Ubuntu TV eventually as well for people to buy as well for exampleApr 14 06:44
formic_to be fair, unity kicks the shit out of gnome 3Apr 14 06:44
DaemonFCand hide that software centerApr 14 06:44
sebsebsebDaemonFC: yepApr 14 06:44
sebsebsebyep if I am on Ubuntu I'll sudo apt-get install for example or use SynapticApr 14 06:44
sebsebsebsoftware centre doesn't really interest me muchApr 14 06:44
DaemonFCin fact, their software center apparently does not get on well with dark GTK+ themesApr 14 06:44
DaemonFCwhich is really annoyingApr 14 06:45
sebsebsebformic_: I think Unity without their branding which I realy dislike the newer branding, I think without that branding and something that looks nicerApr 14 06:45
sebsebsebformic_: it would be betterApr 14 06:45
sebsebsebmaybe even with the buttons on the right with that other theme :D,  but that doesn't me much that they are on left anywayApr 14 06:45
sebsebsebdoesn't bother me much, aboveApr 14 06:45
formic_gnome 3 has them on the left tooApr 14 06:45
sebsebsebGnome Shell hmm,  I still much prefer the old preview version that I still got in Mandriva 2010.2 on the other computer, that goes on top of Gnome 2Apr 14 06:46
DaemonFCI hate light colored application themesApr 14 06:46
DaemonFCthey're hard on the eyesApr 14 06:46
sebsebsebafter those kind of versions, they added a dock down the left hand side and uh, well that's not that bad, but hmmApr 14 06:46
sebsebsebthat's like Apple and UnityApr 14 06:46
sebsebsebformic_: no it doesn't have the icons on the left in Gnome ShellApr 14 06:46
sebsebsebanyway I quite like Gnome 2 still, Gnome Shell is ok, and Unity is ok, but I have a feeling with Mageia 2, I'll probably start using KDE more, and maybe even LXDE a bit here and thereApr 14 06:47
sebsebsebor a lot dependsApr 14 06:47
sebsebsebwell yeah KDE, there won't be Mate in the Mageia 2 repo's for exampleApr 14 06:47

formic_ohhhhApr 14 06:48
sebsebsebnot the dock down the leftApr 14 06:48
formic_what about the stupidly big window barsApr 14 06:48
sebsebsebwhich is really called a dashApr 14 06:49
sebsebseband I think that's in both Gnome Shell and Unity with it called a dash reallyApr 14 06:49
sebsebsebformic_: big window bars?Apr 14 06:49

formic_ughApr 14 06:50
formic_thats why I use kdeApr 14 06:50
sebsebsebformic_: not default though I don't thinkApr 14 06:50
sebsebsebGnome Shell and Unity rather similarApr 14 06:50
sebsebsebalso how apps are shown well the icons for for example, very similarApr 14 06:50
sebsebsebloads of them together, and then hard to find it, but there's a search feature built in to bothApr 14 06:50
sebsebsebformic_: KDE tends to look quite like Windows by default in most distro'sApr 14 06:52
sebsebseb,but that's good reallyApr 14 06:52
