DaemonFC | muahahahaaaaaaa | Feb 08 04:36 |
DaemonFC | people are using Mono to create incredibly resource hungry apps that don't do much | Feb 08 04:37 |
DaemonFC | I've noticed that | Feb 08 04:37 |
cubezzz | I almost expected VB script :) | Feb 08 04:38 |
DaemonFC | I think a secondary goal of Mono is to make so many Linux apps need it that Linux is useless on an old PC | Feb 08 04:38 |

DaemonFC | just MSN alone, you're looking at <30 | Feb 08 04:40 |

DaemonFC | errr | Feb 08 04:41 |
DaemonFC | 70 MB more RAM | Feb 08 04:41 |
DaemonFC | well, Mono proponents are arguing for the proliferation of Mono versions of everything because it saves a few megabytes on the disk | Feb 08 04:43 |
DaemonFC | but look how much more RAM these things use | Feb 08 04:43 |
DaemonFC | you'd get a bigger disk space win by removing Mono from your base install instead | Feb 08 04:44 |

DaemonFC | Ubuntu is freaking out and trying to figure out how to make money after burning venture capital since 2004 | Feb 08 11:49 |
cubezzz | wow, the "new" dlink I bought was from 2007 | Feb 08 11:50 |
DaemonFC | there's ways to make money without becoming dishonest, and I'd like to say that Asay's potential damage is probably mitigated by the fact that he's just one person | Feb 08 11:50 |
DaemonFC | also, the former Microsoft/Novell people, most people are just as loyal as their next paycheck guarantees | Feb 08 11:51 |
DaemonFC | they aren't on Microsoft's/Novell's salary now, so who knows? | Feb 08 11:51 |
DaemonFC | the Yahell by default thing was probably an isolated incident | Feb 08 11:52 |
cubezzz | what about people who volunteer? | Feb 08 11:52 |
cubezzz | they can still be loyal to a cause | Feb 08 11:52 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz, They're working for someone for salary | Feb 08 11:52 |
DaemonFC | it's not like you eek out a living by volunteering and not holding a for-pay job | Feb 08 11:53 |
DaemonFC | the biggest threat for Ubuntu is not being profitable for Canonical | Feb 08 11:54 |
cubezzz | depends | Feb 08 11:54 |
cubezzz | you could already be rich | Feb 08 11:54 |
cubezzz | then "working for a paycheque" losing it's appeal | Feb 08 11:54 |
cubezzz | loses | Feb 08 11:54 |
DaemonFC | true | Feb 08 11:54 |
schestowitz | These talks annoy me........ | Feb 08 11:55 |
schestowitz | "Going forward...." | Feb 08 11:55 |
DaemonFC | Shuttleworth didn't fork over millions of dollars to Ubuntu to start some kind of non-profit thing | Feb 08 11:55 |
schestowitz | "Innovations....." | Feb 08 11:55 |
DaemonFC | it was venture capital | Feb 08 11:55 |
schestowitz | "Best of breed..." :-) | Feb 08 11:55 |
DaemonFC | you know, shell out money now as an investment | Feb 08 11:55 |
DaemonFC | investment = risk (You could lose your ass, you might make more money) | Feb 08 11:55 |
DaemonFC | Really, if it wasn't for the annoyingly long and unpredictable span between Debian releases, Ubuntu would have no reason to exist | Feb 08 11:57 |
DaemonFC | and that release span is due to supporting everything with any kind of CPU equally even if only a few people have that CPU | Feb 08 11:57 |
DaemonFC | and they're about to make things worse by declaring Debian/kFreeBSD a supported configuration | Feb 08 11:58 |
DaemonFC | probably the worst thing they can do when they're already struggling to maintain 12 branches of Debian Linux B-) | Feb 08 11:58 |
DaemonFC | something failing to build on some crusty old architecture with three users on Earth could hold up the release for people on x86 | Feb 08 11:59 |
cubezzz | well, it's nice I got my router's source code at least | Feb 08 12:00 |
cubezzz | 69 megs :) | Feb 08 12:01 |
DaemonFC | Ubuntu not supporting anything but x86 and X86-64 in the mainstream release allows predictable 6 month releases that Debian can't promis | Feb 08 12:01 |
DaemonFC | *promise | Feb 08 12:01 |
DaemonFC | and that has a lot of appeal | Feb 08 12:01 |
cubezzz | ok, about Ubuntu... | Feb 08 12:01 |
cubezzz | I'm sorry to say I don't care for it | Feb 08 12:01 |
cubezzz | there are better distros | Feb 08 12:01 |
DaemonFC | Ubuntu is easy to install, easy to use, and easy to grab software for, and there's fewer "What the fuck!?!?" bugs than most other distros | Feb 08 12:02 |
DaemonFC | it's one of the better ones anyway | Feb 08 12:02 |
cubezzz | what I would like is a distro specifically for developers | Feb 08 12:02 |
cubezzz | meh | Feb 08 12:03 |
DaemonFC | Ubuntu probably does a lot of things better than any other distro | Feb 08 12:03 |
DaemonFC | PPA is my favorite, and yeah it's like OpenSuse build service with less chance of conflicts | Feb 08 12:04 |
cubezzz | I actually complained to my ISP about mono-culture a few days ago | Feb 08 12:06 |
cubezzz | they had some Sparc boxes they weren't even using | Feb 08 12:06 |
cubezzz | everything running was intel | Feb 08 12:06 |
DaemonFC | meh | Feb 08 12:07 |
DaemonFC | X86-64 is more cost effective in many cases | Feb 08 12:07 |
DaemonFC | but yeah, having capable hardware laying around is stupid | Feb 08 12:07 |
cubezzz | X86 is a power pig | Feb 08 12:07 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz, That matters on mobile gadgets more than a server rack | Feb 08 12:08 |
cubezzz | I would have liked to play around on the sparc though | Feb 08 12:08 |
DaemonFC | it makes so little difference on a server rack, that it's not even worth considering | Feb 08 12:08 |
cubezzz | more heat = more hardware failures | Feb 08 12:08 |
cubezzz | more power = more heat | Feb 08 12:09 |
DaemonFC | I've been using X86-64 since the hardware was out | Feb 08 12:09 |
sebsebseb | Ubuntu is well it will become | Feb 08 12:09 |
DaemonFC | in my desktops anyway | Feb 08 12:09 |
sebsebseb | the only serious proper desktop competition to Microsoft maybe | Feb 08 12:09 |
sebsebseb | there's Apple now, but they are a joke | Feb 08 12:09 |
sebsebseb | they do not compete properly against Windows | Feb 08 12:09 |
sebsebseb | that was meant to be above, might become | Feb 08 12:10 |
DaemonFC | in fact, I switched to Linux in part because XP had no X86-64 support at all for a while and when it did, there was piss poor driver support | Feb 08 12:10 |
cubezzz | DaemonFC, tell me, do you have anything non Intel? | Feb 08 12:10 |
sebsebseb | pretty likely I think as time goes on, unless mobile devices start to replace the desktop for many big time | Feb 08 12:10 |
*kentma has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds) | Feb 08 12:10 | |
DaemonFC | cubezzz, you mean non-x86? No. | Feb 08 12:10 |
sebsebseb | some think Desktop Linux will never gain a more proper market share | Feb 08 12:10 |
cubezzz | heh | Feb 08 12:10 |
cubezzz | mono-culture wins again | Feb 08 12:10 |
sebsebseb | and they have their reasons for that, how distros aren't all compatible with each other etc | Feb 08 12:10 |
DaemonFC | I just really don't even care about non-x86 stuff, it makes a terrible desktop choice | Feb 08 12:11 |
cubezzz | not only are you intel, you're wintel | Feb 08 12:11 |
DaemonFC | mainly because you're not going to have Flash, you can't use Wine | Feb 08 12:11 |
cubezzz | hahaha, so what? | Feb 08 12:11 |
sebsebseb | right maybe so, but even so, take just Ubuntu for example, it seems there are people trying it like every day, that are wanting to get away from Windows | Feb 08 12:11 |
cubezzz | you think I care about flash? | Feb 08 12:11 |
sebsebseb | oh I was reading stuff earlier about open source and free software, the names, the differences etc | Feb 08 12:12 |
cubezzz | flash is the scourge of the internet | Feb 08 12:12 |
sebsebseb | I am thinking ok that's nice for us geeks to read about, but average computer users don't care about stuff like that, they just want software that works for what they want to do on a computer | Feb 08 12:12 |
cubezzz | more binary blob-o-mania | Feb 08 12:13 |
sebsebseb | oh and you guys can say Mono is bad and such at times, but what I just said applys to that as well, averag computer users woudn't care, they just want a program that does what they want to do on a computer | Feb 08 12:13 |
sebsebseb | that's who Ubuntu is starting to target more now days, the same target audiance Microsoft have, except they already have that market when it comes to Windows and Office | Feb 08 12:14 |
sebsebseb | Ubuntu is getting a bit hrm, getting better in some ways, and worse in others, but it's still a good one for new Desktop Linux users | Feb 08 12:15 |
cubezzz | people are feel to use whatever they want | Feb 08 12:15 |
cubezzz | but my ISP, that's another thing altogether | Feb 08 12:16 |
cubezzz | they _have_ to try to support everything | Feb 08 12:16 |
cubezzz | and they really try hard to do that | Feb 08 12:16 |
cubezzz | some person wants to use Ubuntu, fine | Feb 08 12:17 |
cubezzz | better than doze at least | Feb 08 12:17 |
sebsebseb | if you don't like Ubuntu much well that's your choice cubezzz and if as a result you don't help people with Ubuntu again your choice. However some/many of us will help people with Ubuntu, beause it's a nice and good thing to do, but also since maybe it will make a bit of a difference some how. Do something that goes against the Windows market share. If they go down to about 60% Windows should imrpove quite a bit. | Feb 08 12:17 |
cubezzz | well I like Ubuntu more than doze :) | Feb 08 12:18 |
cubezzz | it's a matter of degree | Feb 08 12:18 |
sebsebseb | I started typing that before the doze thing | Feb 08 12:18 |
sebsebseb | some people use Linux, because they want freedom | Feb 08 12:18 |
sebsebseb | they care about freedom, they want freedom to succedd | Feb 08 12:18 |
sebsebseb | e | Feb 08 12:18 |
sebsebseb | a lot | Feb 08 12:18 |
sebsebseb | even if it meant Linux fails | Feb 08 12:18 |
sebsebseb | what are you guys? | Feb 08 12:19 |
sebsebseb | Do you want software freedom to be much more of a success, even if it meant Linux failed? | Feb 08 12:19 |
cubezzz | Freedom is important | Feb 08 12:20 |
cubezzz | but I don't see it as an either/or proposition | Feb 08 12:21 |
sebsebseb | schestowitz: I don't know how you do it, it seems you go on loads of links pretty much every day, as well as type stuff for your blog. I am finding it hard to keep up to date with all the Linux news I want to read, and I got quite a lot of time at the moment really. | Feb 08 12:21 |
sebsebseb | news, well blog entries, and such as well, not just news | Feb 08 12:21 |
-BNi/#boycottnovell-[satipera/@satipera] Ebooks and printed books. Publisher on radio says printing books small part of cost of book, says nothing about drm and licences for ebooks. | Feb 08 12:22 | |
cubezzz | wow, this is more 2.4 stuff I got here | Feb 08 12:22 |
sebsebseb | 2.4 ???? | Feb 08 12:22 |
cubezzz | sebsebseb, I used to like Unix System V but I wouldn't touch it now | Feb 08 12:22 |
cubezzz | same with Linux, if something a lot better came along, I'd probably switch to that | Feb 08 12:23 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: Ok uhmm I don't really know much about Unix, but why are you saying that? | Feb 08 12:23 |
cubezzz | because it's a dead OS | Feb 08 12:23 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: well haiku it seems could become the thing that is much better | Feb 08 12:23 |
cubezzz | dead OS = no developers | Feb 08 12:23 |
cubezzz | same with AmigaDOS (although there's a few diehards still) | Feb 08 12:24 |
sebsebseb | well Microsoft is getting a bit dead as well now days really, as in important people in the past, a lot of them have left | Feb 08 12:24 |
sebsebseb | I read something about that earlier | Feb 08 12:24 |
sebsebseb | well it was partly about that | Feb 08 12:24 |
cubezzz | yes indeed | Feb 08 12:24 |
cubezzz | they could die | Feb 08 12:24 |
sebsebseb | well they need to support their later versions of Windows, untill they go end of life | Feb 08 12:25 |
sebsebseb | and there will probably be another version of Windows in the next three years or so | Feb 08 12:25 |
cubezzz | my router source code is 2.4 btw | Feb 08 12:26 |
sebsebseb | cubezzz: I don't understand what you mean by 2.4 | Feb 08 12:27 |

DaemonFC | meh, they try to push indicator-crapplet and bad programs like Empathy | Feb 08 15:25 |
DaemonFC | horrid themes | Feb 08 15:25 |
DaemonFC | misaligned notifications :) | Feb 08 15:25 |

DaemonFC | :( | Feb 08 15:26 |
_goblin | right back... | Feb 08 15:30 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, Some things in GNOME and GNOME-ish software are coming together to where they work really well (for me anyway) and KDE isn't matching this | Feb 08 15:36 |
MinceR | ...for you | Feb 08 15:37 |
DaemonFC | I think GNOME is really taking off while KDE is more worried about how you can pin a Facebook crapplet to the desktop | Feb 08 15:37 |
MinceR | gnome is taking off? that's new | Feb 08 15:37 |
DaemonFC | (open a browser and type www.facebook.com, hit enter?) | Feb 08 15:37 |
MinceR | oh, i know | Feb 08 15:38 |
MinceR | "gnome is taking off" more options and menu items from your screen! | Feb 08 15:38 |
DaemonFC | the only difference between a KDE crapplet and a Vista crapplet is the Vista ones somehow manage to suck worse because they're not only useless but many of them fail to do anything or crash the sidebar :D | Feb 08 15:38 |
DaemonFC | Why are they even wasting time implementing non-features to try to mock-up Vista and OS X? | Feb 08 15:39 |
DaemonFC | it's just pointless cargo cult mentality that assumes if you implement all the stupid shit found in Mac and Windows, users will come | Feb 08 15:39 |
DaemonFC | in the mean time there's like thousands of bugs affecting things real users care about | Feb 08 15:40 |
DaemonFC | like Amarok not playing CDs until recently | Feb 08 15:40 |
MinceR | i'm sure that an it makes a whole world of difference whether a feature you aren't using is there or not | Feb 08 15:41 |
MinceR | s/ an / / | Feb 08 15:41 |
DaemonFC | it's like KDE took the hose off the fire and went off to chase butterflies | Feb 08 15:41 |
DaemonFC | it might not matter if it's just affecting me, but I fail to see how anyone is functioning in a system of such bloat that still misses features in every bundled application somehow | Feb 08 15:42 |
DaemonFC | but hey, it plays CDs now and it *only* took them 2 years | Feb 08 15:42 |
DaemonFC | *claps* | Feb 08 15:42 |
DaemonFC | Windows 3.1 can play a CD, there's no excuse for Amarok to not be able to | Feb 08 15:43 |
DaemonFC | that's just pitiful | Feb 08 15:43 |
MinceR | indeed. so i'll just install Windows 3.1 as my audio player application | Feb 08 15:43 |
MinceR | oh, wait | Feb 08 15:43 |
DaemonFC | media player in Windows 3.0 (1990) can play a CD | Feb 08 15:44 |
MinceR | btw, Amarok isn't even part of the KDE Software Compilation, afaik | Feb 08 15:44 |
DaemonFC | hmmm, it's presented as such | Feb 08 15:44 |
DaemonFC | I'm sure there were programs on personal computers in the 1980s that could play a CD ;) | Feb 08 15:45 |
DaemonFC | I seem to remember playing one in DOS | Feb 08 15:45 |
FurnaceBoy | DaemonFC: I am aware of the different rhetorical uses of "illegal alien" and "undocumented person". But you should refrain from making up numbers like "60 mil" or "20 mil" "illegals" and then blaming them for the cuts to the space program. Which really just makes you look like the most ignorant American around. | Feb 08 15:47 |
*jono (~jono@ubuntu/member/jono) has joined #boycottnovell | Feb 08 15:47 | |
DaemonFC | FurnaceBoy, If it wasn't for the food stamps alone for millions of illegals and their families, we'd fund the space program | Feb 08 15:48 |
FurnaceBoy | what a lot of nonsense. | Feb 08 15:48 |
DaemonFC | with change | Feb 08 15:48 |
DaemonFC | :D | Feb 08 15:48 |
FurnaceBoy | who do you think is paying for your wars? | Feb 08 15:48 |
FurnaceBoy | who paid for your bailouts? | Feb 08 15:48 |
DaemonFC | Chinese debt | Feb 08 15:48 |
DaemonFC | the government already gave away my money to feed illegal aliens | Feb 08 15:48 |
FurnaceBoy | sigh | Feb 08 15:48 |
FurnaceBoy | don't be stupid | Feb 08 15:49 |
FurnaceBoy | the mexicans in the US are probably the group most divorced from the real causes of your bankrupt, corrupt, broken, dysfunctional society. | Feb 08 15:49 |
FurnaceBoy | look higher. | Feb 08 15:49 |
DaemonFC | payroll deductions to the IRS = feeding illegals, paying federal bureaucrats, and giving kickbacks to Obama's campaign financiers | Feb 08 15:49 |
FurnaceBoy | or, as Eruaran would say: look in the mirror. | Feb 08 15:50 |
DaemonFC | among other such worthy things as congressmen sending money back to refurbish an art museam in their district | Feb 08 15:50 |
FurnaceBoy | DaemonFC: soup kitchens are chump change. | Feb 08 15:50 |
FurnaceBoy | DaemonFC: wars are not. | Feb 08 15:50 |
DaemonFC | that only costs like $300,000 a pop | Feb 08 15:50 |
FurnaceBoy | DaemonFC: do some research | Feb 08 15:50 |
MinceR | he can't handle the facts | Feb 08 15:50 |
DaemonFC | my tax money that I pay out from Indiana is being spent to reward the stupidity in California with federal bailouts | Feb 08 15:50 |
DaemonFC | fuck them | Feb 08 15:51 |
DaemonFC | let them fucking figure it out | Feb 08 15:51 |
FurnaceBoy | DaemonFC: bailouts are part of the problem , yes! | Feb 08 15:51 |
FurnaceBoy | DaemonFC: so focus on the real causes and tone down your absurd tirade against "mexicans" | Feb 08 15:51 |
DaemonFC | my state didn't squander money, why do I have to pay for those jackasses that blew their budget? | Feb 08 15:51 |
FurnaceBoy | DaemonFC: who knwe taxes were good for something | Feb 08 15:51 |
FurnaceBoy | knew* | Feb 08 15:51 |
DaemonFC | my state is in a $2 billion surplus right now | Feb 08 15:51 |
DaemonFC | Why is my state doing fine? | Feb 08 15:51 |
DaemonFC | Why is California bankrupt? | Feb 08 15:52 |
DaemonFC | liberal social programs to benefit moochers and illegal aliens are a part of that | Feb 08 15:52 |
FurnaceBoy | eh? | Feb 08 15:52 |
FurnaceBoy | what a load of tripe | Feb 08 15:52 |
DaemonFC | California steals kids from their parents, not for being abused, because the parent verbally states that they don't approve of the kid being gay | Feb 08 15:53 |
FurnaceBoy | your mexican residents are pretty much the only thing you have going for you | Feb 08 15:53 |
DaemonFC | slaps them in a foster home where they can damned well be beaten and starved | Feb 08 15:53 |
DaemonFC | that's what the liberals do | Feb 08 15:53 |
DaemonFC | the liberals are so worried about being politically correct that they don't even worry about who they hurt and how much money they spend doing it | Feb 08 15:55 |
DaemonFC | it's just as bad as lying about WMDs in Iraq | Feb 08 15:55 |
FurnaceBoy | DaemonFC: looks like bush/cheney destroyed two nations for the price of one. | Feb 08 15:55 |
DaemonFC | You reach a point where you can | Feb 08 15:55 |
FurnaceBoy | DaemonFC: go after that ruling class, they're fucking you over. | Feb 08 15:55 |
DaemonFC | '*can't take any more taxes from working people | Feb 08 15:56 |
FurnaceBoy | DaemonFC: every which way | Feb 08 15:56 |
DaemonFC | you can't subsidize freeloaders anymore | Feb 08 15:56 |
FurnaceBoy | DaemonFC: and now you're bringing Palin/nutjob talking points in here | Feb 08 15:56 |
DaemonFC | people just can't do it, the money isn't there | Feb 08 15:56 |
FurnaceBoy | DaemonFC: there are no "freeloaders" | Feb 08 15:56 |
FurnaceBoy | DaemonFC: it's a right wing talking point | Feb 08 15:56 |

DaemonFC | FurnaceBoy, I'll simplify it for you. You have a family and that family has 2 people that can work, they have two kids, they do alright til grandma gets old and can't live on her own and they have to take care of her, then one of them loses their job, then the government comes in and wants to raise taxes on the only person still working so they can feed illegal aliens | Feb 08 15:57 |
DaemonFC | Those illegals should go find a fucking job or go back to Mexico | Feb 08 15:57 |
FurnaceBoy | DaemonFC: like I said. they are not the problem. you're imagining it. | Feb 08 15:58 |
DaemonFC | how dare the government ask to bleed people who are already struggling more to feed people who have no legal right to be here | Feb 08 15:58 |
DaemonFC | the Mexicans come here and they take work and leave Americans unemployed, and abuse hospital emergency rooms, and get on food stamps | Feb 08 15:59 |

Kender4 | Fedora +1 | Feb 08 16:58 |

DaemonFC | well, KDE has never been that great on Debian anyway | Feb 08 17:00 |
Kender4 | Debian takes longer to adapt the newer stuff | Feb 08 17:00 |
Kender4 | I don't think they even support packagekit | Feb 08 17:01 |
DaemonFC | yeah, they're usually a version or two behind on X or the kernel when they ship a release | Feb 08 17:01 |
Kender4 | opensuse broke packagekit by using yast | Feb 08 17:01 |
DaemonFC | the kernel in Lenny is so old it doesn't even support UVC webcams without being patched | Feb 08 17:01 |
Kender4 | instead of kpackagekit | Feb 08 17:01 |
Kender4 | the first thing I do on a debian install is replace the kernel | Feb 08 17:02 |
DaemonFC | the packages in Debian are hysterically old | Feb 08 17:02 |
Kender4 | i learned how to do that by having to do it a lot on Gentoo | Feb 08 17:02 |
DaemonFC | it's like, for them to ship a release, they have to use stuff that's so old that nobody is still maintaining it | Feb 08 17:03 |
DaemonFC | it's ridiculous | Feb 08 17:03 |
DaemonFC | use Ubuntu and make it easy on yourself | Feb 08 17:03 |

schestowitz | Pardus is nice | Feb 08 20:59 |
schestowitz | I'll try it next... maybe mention it to mates | Feb 08 20:59 |
schestowitz | They do KDE4 OK | Feb 08 21:00 |
Kender4 | they can't have a monopoly because anyone can take their stuff and rebrand | Feb 08 21:00 |
schestowitz | Their root issue is one they hopefully got around to fixing | Feb 08 21:00 |
Kender4 | Fedora does KDE4 the best imo, every distro I've tried | Feb 08 21:00 |
schestowitz | Mint does well | Feb 08 21:00 |

schestowitz | It also won't point to Mahoo! | Feb 08 21:01 |

One Microsoft shareholder compared Steve Ballmer, the President, to Bernie Madoff, the Ponzi scam artist." | Feb 08 22:04 |

MinceR | lol, m$ drops the only good thing about their mobile OS | Feb 08 22:11 |
MinceR | or rather, the only two good things | Feb 08 22:11 |

schestowitz | Now they just need to come up wit a stupid name that starts with an "i" and put Ballmer in a pair of jeans | Feb 08 22:13 |
MinceR | the article also says that you can only install apps from "official channels" | Feb 08 22:13 |
MinceR | one more stupid limitation from crApple | Feb 08 22:13 |

shreddar | But it oviouse that iPhone is more popular than iMac | Feb 08 22:17 |
MinceR | that's because it costs less | Feb 08 22:17 |
MinceR | and is more portable | Feb 08 22:17 |
MinceR | so they can acquire and show off their cult membership more easily | Feb 08 22:17 |
-BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[_goblin] @_the_mad_hatter BTW with your handle "Mad Hatter" I am sure, like me you are a Luton Town FC supporter..maybe youre a secret one? ;) | Feb 08 22:18 | |
MinceR | plus more people use phones than general-purpose computers, especially the simpletons who'd buy into the cult | Feb 08 22:18 |
shreddar | It's also simpler and has better 3rd party support. | Feb 08 22:18 |
MinceR | yeah, simplicity is important | Feb 08 22:18 |
_goblin | shreddar: I often "miss a few....." like your previous comment! ;) | Feb 08 22:18 |
MinceR | for the people who can't tell their fingers from each other and so are more comfortable with the one-button mouse | Feb 08 22:19 |

MinceR | _goblin: well, now that you said it here, they never will :> | Feb 08 22:31 |
MinceR | shreddar: Knome or GDE? :> | Feb 08 22:31 |
oiaohm | Really I wish not shreddar | Feb 08 22:31 |
oiaohm | The disputes between Gnome and KDE over design have pushed the Linux interface forward. | Feb 08 22:32 |
shreddar | Well I really just want GTK and QT to merge | Feb 08 22:32 |
MinceR | i'd prefer to make them live together better | Feb 08 22:32 |
oiaohm | Again unlikely to happen | Feb 08 22:33 |
MinceR | and to make it easier to mix and match Gnome and KDE components (and other components) | Feb 08 22:33 |
oiaohm | Best we can hope for is standards make them look the same ish. shreddar | Feb 08 22:33 |
MinceR | they could use each other's rendering afaict | Feb 08 22:33 |
oiaohm | Items like policykit and dbus have reduced differences in backends between Gnome and KDE. | Feb 08 22:34 |
MinceR | now that Qt is LGPL, it can work in both ways | Feb 08 22:34 |
oiaohm | Not as simple as it sounds. MinceR | Feb 08 22:34 |
MinceR | there already is gtk-qt | Feb 08 22:34 |
oiaohm | Dialogs in GTK are completely different design between them. | Feb 08 22:35 |
oiaohm | Ie GTK vs QT dialogs | Feb 08 22:35 |
oiaohm | For a long time to come GTK is always going to be slightly out of place on QT desktop and QT apps are going to be slightly out of place on a GTK one. | Feb 08 22:35 |
MinceR | i can live with that | Feb 08 22:36 |
oiaohm | Really a unified theming system would be better than each running each others engines. | Feb 08 22:37 |
oiaohm | Ie less likely for incompadible issues when updates of the core libs happen. | Feb 08 22:37 |
MinceR | that would be nice too | Feb 08 22:38 |
shreddar | If they made a GTK version of Konqurer or Dolphin. That all I'd need. | Feb 08 22:38 |
MinceR | something that appears as a theming engine for both and draws widgets as specified by its own themes | Feb 08 22:38 |

schestowitz | _goblin: take a look at this, say what you think http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4prqFlqepuU (What Is Morality?) | Feb 08 22:46 |
oiaohm | Opps wrong s before. Sorry schestowitz I was meaning shreddar | Feb 08 22:47 |
oiaohm | Why we are fat is a interesting one. I saw a study recently on thin people. | Feb 08 22:47 |
oiaohm | Results were very interesting they basically could not get over weight and stay that way even if they wanted to. | Feb 08 22:48 |
oiaohm | Part of the the study they were eating double the ammount of food they need and doing no physical activity. | Feb 08 22:49 |
oiaohm | Yes they did gain weight. | Feb 08 22:49 |
FurnaceBoy | why is who fat? | Feb 08 22:49 |
oiaohm | One person was really intersting the result was all he gain was mussle no extra body fat. | Feb 08 22:50 |
oiaohm | Yet mussle with no physical activity to create it. | Feb 08 22:50 |
FurnaceBoy | yeah but don't get near that guy with Kryptonite | Feb 08 22:50 |
oiaohm | Really it turns out to be envormental when young combind with DNA. | Feb 08 22:51 |
FurnaceBoy | urgh | Feb 08 22:51 |
FurnaceBoy | where? | Feb 08 22:51 |
FurnaceBoy | what culture are they examining? | Feb 08 22:51 |
oiaohm | If you are going to be fat or not. | Feb 08 22:51 |
FurnaceBoy | are we talking about American obesity? because that's due to their dominant culture. | Feb 08 22:52 |
FurnaceBoy | elsewhere, sure, natural factors are more in play. | Feb 08 22:52 |
oiaohm | No FurnaceBoy | Feb 08 22:52 |
oiaohm | It the culture treatment of food around childern. | Feb 08 22:52 |
FurnaceBoy | yes, that's part of it. | Feb 08 22:52 |
oiaohm | Its the only part. | Feb 08 22:52 |
FurnaceBoy | in USA, cultural factors are basically dominant. | Feb 08 22:52 |
FurnaceBoy | children who aren't taught to eat properly will eat badly their whole lives. | Feb 08 22:53 |
oiaohm | Basically by the age of 2 your bodys perfered weight every stage for the rest of your life is set. | Feb 08 22:53 |
FurnaceBoy | unfortunately, many parents in North America think it's acceptable to teach kids specifically to eat fast food. | Feb 08 22:53 |
oiaohm | After that if you body is set to be overweight there is not much you can do about it. FurnaceBoy | Feb 08 22:54 |
FurnaceBoy | eh? | Feb 08 22:54 |
FurnaceBoy | sure, but these predispositions are not relevant to discussions of obesity in the USA | Feb 08 22:54 |
shreddar | Not all Americans are fat. Just those of us who can't afford good education or liposuction. | Feb 08 22:54 |
FurnaceBoy | LOL! | Feb 08 22:54 |
FurnaceBoy | shreddar: but the rate of obesity is due to cultural factors | Feb 08 22:54 |
oiaohm | Problem here FurnaceBoy. If you are under your bodies set weight you feel stavation. | Feb 08 22:54 |
FurnaceBoy | shreddar: and unfortunately some of those factors and attendant consequences are being exported | Feb 08 22:55 |
oiaohm | Even if you are not staving. FurnaceBoy | Feb 08 22:55 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: cultural, as you agreed above. | Feb 08 22:55 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: the natural factors, predispositions, etc, are swamped by culture | Feb 08 22:55 |
oiaohm | Now bad adult eating would basically do nothing. FurnaceBoy | Feb 08 22:55 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: sure in a tiny minority | Feb 08 22:55 |
oiaohm | Particular to some asian areas. | Feb 08 22:55 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: doesn't explain the majority | Feb 08 22:55 |
oiaohm | Due to a DNA difference in some asian countries they don't put on fat. | Feb 08 22:56 |
oiaohm | They just get more mussle. | Feb 08 22:56 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: they should therefore be bred for meat! win-win! | Feb 08 22:56 |
oiaohm | So no major risks to them over eating at all other than being majorly strong. | Feb 08 22:56 |
oiaohm | It not just culture | Feb 08 22:56 |
oiaohm | DNA is a very big factor. | Feb 08 22:57 |
shreddar | I call BS on the DNA excuse | Feb 08 22:57 |
oiaohm | Next is diabetes in mother before child birth. | Feb 08 22:57 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: well, all depends who you're talking about. | Feb 08 22:58 |
oiaohm | That tricks the DNA that you are going stavation area. | Feb 08 22:58 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: obesity isn't a problem in most of the world | Feb 08 22:58 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: starvation is ... | Feb 08 22:58 |
oiaohm | So raise body weight of person. | Feb 08 22:58 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: it would be wonderful if children learned good eating. | Feb 08 22:59 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: but they won't learn it from TV | Feb 08 22:59 |
oiaohm | Notice USA has had high class 2 dibeites compared to everyone else for a long time. | Feb 08 22:59 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: it's much more profitable to sell you a Diet Coke than a tomato | Feb 08 22:59 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: yes. did you see "Food, Inc." ? | Feb 08 22:59 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: some of the causes of that epidemic are covered there | Feb 08 22:59 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: who knew that eating junk all the time was bad for you??? | Feb 08 22:59 |
oiaohm | Class 2 dibeities is caused by being over weight. | Feb 08 23:00 |
oiaohm | and other factors. | Feb 08 23:00 |
oiaohm | Issue here its a multiplying problem. | Feb 08 23:00 |
FurnaceBoy | yes. | Feb 08 23:00 |
FurnaceBoy | it's systemic, top to bottom. | Feb 08 23:00 |
FurnaceBoy | it's very profitable to sell food that will kill you | Feb 08 23:01 |
oiaohm | Desexing all females with class 2 dibeities would reduce the population weight over time. | Feb 08 23:01 |
FurnaceBoy | ugh | Feb 08 23:01 |
oiaohm | Even if you don't alter the food. FurnaceBoy | Feb 08 23:01 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: go see "Food Inc" for a small insight into how systemic the issue is. | Feb 08 23:01 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: you could start with subsidies for corn and soy | Feb 08 23:02 |
oiaohm | I have seen it FurnaceBoy | Feb 08 23:02 |
shreddar | Well if they could make a addictive food that's healthy for you I don't think it hurt business. | Feb 08 23:02 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: all of that crap has to be dismantled to have a hope of improving public health | Feb 08 23:02 |
FurnaceBoy | shreddar: good food has existed on the planet for as long as humans have existed | Feb 08 23:02 |
FurnaceBoy | shreddar: there is no need for innovation in food | Feb 08 23:02 |
FurnaceBoy | shreddar: we only need to eat what grows. the end. | Feb 08 23:02 |
shreddar | addictive food not good food | Feb 08 23:02 |
shreddar | addictive as in heroin | Feb 08 23:03 |
FurnaceBoy | shreddar: why pander to poor behaviours? just teach people what is good to eat, and make sure it's available. | Feb 08 23:03 |
oiaohm | Problem here is where most of history location is. | Feb 08 23:03 |
oiaohm | Ie people living in cold climents having extra fat is not a bad thing while food is limited. | Feb 08 23:03 |
shreddar | I'm just point out the profitable part isn't the deadly factor but the addictive factor. | Feb 08 23:04 |
FurnaceBoy | shreddar: both | Feb 08 23:04 |
oiaohm | Issue is not the addictive | Feb 08 23:04 |
FurnaceBoy | shreddar: it's no coincidence that sugar water is the most profitable. | Feb 08 23:04 |
oiaohm | Issue is some of the chemicals in there that are posions. | Feb 08 23:04 |
FurnaceBoy | shreddar: no food value. the additives make it toxic, but it's pure profit. | Feb 08 23:04 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: right | Feb 08 23:04 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: an under-appreciated fact | Feb 08 23:04 |
oiaohm | And no food value. | Feb 08 23:05 |
FurnaceBoy | but very very lucrative. | Feb 08 23:05 |
FurnaceBoy | which is why nobody is changing the status quo. | Feb 08 23:05 |
oiaohm | so a person can eat there fill but there body is still in stavation. | Feb 08 23:05 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: the effects of aspartame multiply that effect | Feb 08 23:05 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: as you probably know | Feb 08 23:05 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: calorie deficit | Feb 08 23:05 |
oiaohm | If that person is carring a child. The effect of being in stavation is that child will be over weight. | Feb 08 23:05 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: drives craving through well understood endocrine effects | Feb 08 23:05 |
oiaohm | So its not the culture of food. | Feb 08 23:06 |
oiaohm | Basically the USA population is staving in a sea of plenty. | Feb 08 23:06 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: it's not the right kind of plenty. | Feb 08 23:06 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: it's exactly the wrong kind | Feb 08 23:07 |
oiaohm | Lot of people think it because USA people eat a lot they are overweight. | Feb 08 23:07 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: the dominant culture teaches people that they should eat the worst foods available | Feb 08 23:07 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: hm? | Feb 08 23:07 |
oiaohm | Its not the case. | Feb 08 23:07 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: have you been to the USA? | Feb 08 23:07 |
oiaohm | How are the food the worst. | Feb 08 23:07 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: there are a combination of factors involved int he USA's obesity problem | Feb 08 23:08 |
oiaohm | If they were made from real items not manaffactured crap. | Feb 08 23:08 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: 1) ignorance 2) advertising 3) poor availability of good food 4) the bad food is cheaper .. and a few others. | Feb 08 23:08 |
oiaohm | Most of the bad foods the USA people eat would not cause there bodys to think they are staving. | Feb 08 23:08 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: yes, obviously, if good food were available and people knew what was good to eat, the problem would not exist. | Feb 08 23:08 |
oiaohm | The staving thing is critical. | Feb 08 23:08 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: also 5) lack of exercise | Feb 08 23:08 |
oiaohm | Remember lack of exercise its dna dependant if you need to. | Feb 08 23:09 |
FurnaceBoy | eh? | Feb 08 23:09 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: no | Feb 08 23:09 |
oiaohm | It is. | Feb 08 23:09 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: this is cultural. it's a manufactured effect. | Feb 08 23:09 |
oiaohm | Some people cannot put on fat. | Feb 08 23:09 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: sure, in a tiny minority, outside the USA. | Feb 08 23:09 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: this is not relevant to the USA obesity issue. | Feb 08 23:09 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: culture is | Feb 08 23:09 |
oiaohm | That is set from birth. FurnaceBoy | Feb 08 23:09 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: so? | Feb 08 23:09 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: not relevant. | Feb 08 23:09 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: the lack of exercise is cultural, manufactured situation. | Feb 08 23:10 |
oiaohm | exercise is required heavly by those who body weight is set wrong. | Feb 08 23:10 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: i am not sure you understand. | Feb 08 23:10 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: you need to burn calories. | Feb 08 23:10 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: the dominant (and required, by poor planning) USA lifestyle burns as few calories as possible. | Feb 08 23:10 |
oiaohm | Ok if you body weight is set right. | Feb 08 23:10 |
oiaohm | You try to eat too much you will be sick. | Feb 08 23:11 |
oiaohm | Ie if you body is going to gain wieght more than what you body set value is you will not be able to eat it. | Feb 08 23:11 |
oiaohm | Human body has lots of safe guards. | Feb 08 23:11 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: yet they are all powerless in the face of these other factors. | Feb 08 23:12 |
oiaohm | No. | Feb 08 23:12 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: those safeguards work only where people are behaving normally | Feb 08 23:12 |
oiaohm | No. | Feb 08 23:12 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: they're insignificant in the face of a culture designed to make them sick | Feb 08 23:12 |
oiaohm | The safe guards only work if you born right. | Feb 08 23:12 |
FurnaceBoy | sure | Feb 08 23:12 |
oiaohm | They can work against you. | Feb 08 23:12 |
oiaohm | If you body weight is set high. | Feb 08 23:13 |
FurnaceBoy | anyway, the result of all these exceptions is that the vast majority eat badly and have health problems | Feb 08 23:13 |
oiaohm | Your body will do everything to get there. | Feb 08 23:13 |
oiaohm | This is a safe guard as well. | Feb 08 23:13 |
oiaohm | Human body safe guards being tricked is causing very big problems. | Feb 08 23:13 |
oiaohm | They are programmed by how much stavation your mother was facing. FurnaceBoy | Feb 08 23:14 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: this is a tiny minority | Feb 08 23:14 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: the point is that there are so many factors here, you have to address all of them. | Feb 08 23:15 |
oiaohm | Now what do we do in responce to being over weight. | Feb 08 23:15 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: education. urban planning. media. food regulation. | Feb 08 23:15 |
oiaohm | Diet. | Feb 08 23:15 |
oiaohm | Ie self caused stavation. | Feb 08 23:15 |
FurnaceBoy | no, | Feb 08 23:15 |
FurnaceBoy | diet != self caused starvation | Feb 08 23:15 |
FurnaceBoy | though most people think that's what it is. | Feb 08 23:15 |

FurnaceBoy | which just makes the problem worse | Feb 08 23:16 |
oiaohm | Really kill of the self cause stavation and the problem will improve as well. | Feb 08 23:16 |

FurnaceBoy | FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: education. urban planning. media. food regulation. | Feb 08 23:17 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: none of these will be solved soon | Feb 08 23:17 |
oiaohm | Lot of it is not the eating of food. But the no eating of food. | Feb 08 23:18 |
FurnaceBoy | or the wrong kind. <-- this is the biggest issue. | Feb 08 23:18 |
FurnaceBoy | which is an education issue. | Feb 08 23:18 |
FurnaceBoy | and availability and affordability. | Feb 08 23:18 |
FurnaceBoy | solving all that will take 100 years :) | Feb 08 23:18 |
FurnaceBoy | and means completely eviscerating the current system | Feb 08 23:19 |

oiaohm | Ie FurnaceBoy it been a snow ball effect. It been coming for years and no one noticed it. | Feb 08 23:21 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: did you ever read Dr Batmanghelidj's book, about Water, which covered Aspartame metabolism? | Feb 08 23:21 |
oiaohm | Yes Aspartame is a great posion. FurnaceBoy | Feb 08 23:22 |
FurnaceBoy | oiaohm: yes, but don't just focus on the medical causes. culture, education, urban planning, lack of regulation, destructive subsidies, are all factors | Feb 08 23:22 |
oiaohm | Even worse people with type 2 diabiets are going to take lots of it. FurnaceBoy | Feb 08 23:22 |
FurnaceBoy | ugh | Feb 08 23:22 |
FurnaceBoy | yeah | Feb 08 23:23 |
FurnaceBoy | it's a scam | Feb 08 23:23 |
FurnaceBoy | Batmanghelidj explained how diet coke actually makes obesity far more likely | Feb 08 23:23 |
oiaohm | So making the long term effects of type 2 diabiets worse on the over all popluation. | Feb 08 23:23 |
oiaohm | Ie more and more obese people. | Feb 08 23:23 |
oiaohm | That are DNA set that way. | Feb 08 23:23 |
oiaohm | And that feeds around in a loop. | Feb 08 23:24 |
oiaohm | Before you know what is going on most of you popluation is over weight. | Feb 08 23:24 |
oiaohm | There is always a small percentage of a population who will be in true stavation. So you always should have some obese people in the next generation. | Feb 08 23:25 |
FurnaceBoy | but thats only one factor... | Feb 08 23:25 |
FurnaceBoy | don't neglect all the others | Feb 08 23:25 |
oiaohm | But those obese people should when there is food have thinner childern if they eat right. | Feb 08 23:25 |
oiaohm | Or naturally die due to type 2 dibeites. | Feb 08 23:26 |
oiaohm | Guess what. We have stopped the natural kill of there as well. | Feb 08 23:26 |
oiaohm | Basically by nature type 2 dibeities people are not ment to have children. | Feb 08 23:27 |
oiaohm | Everything is running out of control and its not just food. FurnaceBoy | Feb 08 23:27 |

FurnaceBoy | Another Signal official testified in his deposition: "The impression I was left with after the talks with the federal agencies was to immediately deport the worker activists." The Signal official said he was told, "Don't give them any advance notice, take them all out of the line on the way to work, get their personal belongings, get them in a van, get their tickets, get them to the airport and | Feb 08 23:32 |
FurnaceBoy | send them back to India, even if their H-2 B visas haven't expired." | Feb 08 23:32 |
FurnaceBoy | Aby Raju, one of the Indian workers who had been employed by Signal, said that once he and his co-workers arrived from India, "we were held in a labor camp in the shipyard, penned in behind barbed wire and guarded by security so no one knew our whereabouts. We were 24 men to a small room with no privacy and two toilets. They charged so much for the food and bunks that we couldn't send any money | Feb 08 23:32 |
FurnaceBoy | home or repay our families for the money they spent helping us get to the United States." | Feb 08 23:32 |
FurnaceBoy | land of the free, home of the brave | Feb 08 23:33 |
FurnaceBoy | The New Orleans Workers' Center for Racial Justice, which has filed a federal class action suit against Signal on human trafficking charges, organized the taking of the sworn depositions that reveal the collaboration between Signal and the Bush administration. | Feb 08 23:33 |

cubezzz | IP... | Feb 08 23:50 |
schestowitz | v6? | Feb 08 23:50 |
cubezzz | is v6 going to replace v4 or will both be used in tandem? | Feb 08 23:55 |
MinceR | i think for most users it will have to replace v4 | Feb 08 23:56 |
MinceR | as there's simply not enough addresses | Feb 08 23:57 |
MinceR | then again, maybe ISPs (or independent tunnels) will provide NAT to fix that somewhat | Feb 08 23:57 |
cubezzz | "It is widely expected that IPv4 will be supported alongside IPv6 for the foreseeable future." | Feb 08 23:57 |
cubezzz | I assume v6 boxes still can talk to v4 boxes | Feb 08 23:58 |
MinceR | not directly | Feb 08 23:59 |
MinceR | for the v4 box's reply to reach the v6 box, it would have to be able to address it, which is precisely the problem | Feb 08 23:59 |
