<0> Whatever man.
<0> I have stuff to do.
<1> just like i read lkml daily
<2> you guys are funny this morning, like after eating a dozen Krispy Kreme sugar bombs
<3> lkml has much cl***ier flamewars than /. :)
<1> krispy kreme is still in business?
<2> XulChris: yeah
<4> I feel Linux is a bit better because it's geared more toward the savvy user rather than the beginner
<4> s/bit/lot
<1> oh wow their stock price actually rebounded at $4
<1> rudyV: linux is made by developers for developers. Windows was made by idots for idiots.
<3> krispy kreme recently started up in london so I guess they're doing okay
<1> well yea, their stock almost doubled in the past year
<1> but a year ago it looked like they were going belly up
<2> XulChris: not long ago they opened a shop about an hour from here
<1> actually in just the past 4 months its gone up
<4> Windows basically is like "This is your computer; you can do what you like, so long as it's MS-approved"; Linux is more like "This is your computer; you can do what you like, period"
<2> XulChris: sold like 2,000,000 sugar bombs in a weekend
<1> when it first opened in the US, people would stand in line for that sh!t
<1> like get up at 3am in the morning just to go stand in line
<4> yeah - like waiting in line for (insert favorite rockstar here) to perform their most anticipated show
<2> they are just sugar bombs
<4> right
<1> rudyV: or standing in line 3 months before star wars opens
<4> hehe
<2> XulChris: but that is sane
<2> LOL
<1> whats a sugar bomb?
<4> A Krispy Kreme glazed donut
<2> XulChris: anything made by Krispy Kreme
<1> what that what brits call donuts?
<2> what that what?
<1> donut/doughnut
<5> is there any non-sugarbomb food in the us?
<6> StillBob: you're a silly little goose
<1> AndyCap: they sell fruit here too you know
<6> AndyCap: yes .. there's plenty of organic at azurestandard.com
<5> organic and fruit don't mean non sugar.
<2> and fruitfilled donuts
<5> :P
<1> although fruit has sugar in it i guess
<1> they sell bread here
<4> Thanks I'm really enjoying Linux now that I have a place that I can ask questions about it
<2> to put Jelly on
<6> there is a BIG difference between "refined chemical sugar" and natural organic sugar
<6> a HUGE one
<1> StillBob: heh
<2> lol
<5> minix: huge nah, it's like crack and cocaine
<6> despite popular opinion it DOES matter what you put in your body (if you plan to stay healthy, that is)
<2> heh
<6> if you don't care about health .. america is a great place
<2> steak, fried taters, pizza....
<6> indeed
<5> minix: uhh, no it isn't you have to pay for your unhealthyness
<6> cancer cancer cancer
<2> and make sure that steak is rare
<1> pizza is great
<4> I like pizza
<1> pizza > *
<6> i only eat non animal organic foods ..
<6> i don't like feeling like a fat greedy american death ****er
<2> heh
<1> minix: so that means you can eat pizza i guess
<4> XulChris: "pizza > *"?
<5> rudyV: * is a wildcard
<6> you can eat antifreeze if you want to
<1> rudyV: pizza is best. food. ever.
<4> ah
<5> minix: nah, it gives you a hangover.
<2> nah
<6> most americans eat antifreeze daily without even noticing
<6> they don't read the labels
<2> a good ribeye or Prime rib over pizza any day
<5> StillBob: Amen
<6> the very same components used in antifreeze are in many many "foods" in america
<1> StillBob: esp for breakfast
<5> minix: and?
<6> i prefer the german reinheitsgebot
<7> hi, i spoke to someone earlier and they said type "service gpm restart" but I want to restart my entire PS/2 mouse, not just console mouse services, how do I do this?
<2> it is not the general ingredients in antifreeze that are bad for you IIRC, it is the ethelene glycol
<8> is core 5 stable yet ?
<2> sean33: no
<2> sean33: 2-3 weeks
<1> depends on your definition of "stable"
<2> sean33: read the schedule
<5> StillBob: depends on whether you drink a lot of it at once or a little day by day :-P
<8> anyone playing with the beta versions , whats the big improvements on fc4 ?
<5> sean33: handsome looks. :-P
<8> lol
<2> sean33: the link has not changed BTW, is still http://fedora.redhat.com/About/schedule/ just like last time I gave it to you
<8> well thats always nice :)
<1> sean33: the only improvement is a newer SDL version that doesnt have the CD bug that will allow you to play CD based dos games in dosbox
<6> ethelyne glycol and propalyne glycol are regularly used in american "foods"
<6> as are many other knowm harmful ingredients
<4> So in about 2-3 weeks FC5 will be ready? Wow
<1> hey it improves shelf life
<9> StillBob, Guy says morning
<8> thanks StillBob , but i came to talk about it not read about it ;P
<2> sean33: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats
<5> minix: propylene-glycol, and how is it harmful?
<1> the longer a food can stay on a shelf, the more money you can make selling it
<6> XulChris: yes, so does hydrogenation .. too bad you can't digest hydrogenated oils/fats
<1> minix: well i dont drink milk so i dont care
<2> oh who cares
<6> XulChris: milk? what does that have to do with anything?
<8> lol
<1> its hydrogenated
<6> no
<6> it's not
<5> XulChris: really?
<2> the freakishly right or left food argument has no place in this channel
<6> i guess php is a compiled language too eh XulChris ?
<1> or pasteruized or something
<5> XulChris: which boils down to heating it. :P
<5> rim-shot.
<1> i got two frozen pizzas and a lasagna in my freezer
<6> with hydrogenated oils in them
<4> I eat mostly ramen noodles
<8> i realy dislike drivers that require a FDD to install how stupid is that
<1> people still use floppies?
<8> exactly
<2> I thought Viagra fixed that
<6> nothing "requires" a floppy
<9> hehe
<0> sean33, it is as stupid as the people who think all data is more than 1.44MB.
<4> I still use floppies for small text files
<1> thats almost as dumb as someone who thinks 640k is all the RAM anyone will ever need
<0> sean33, I think the floppy is marvelous. You can boot from it, transfer small files.. etc.
<8> Highpoint seem to think that a server should have a 1.44Mb floppy because the install script doesnt work unless you make their dirver disk
<10> hello, system-config-language only shows "English (USA)" for me, and i want it to be on English (UK) - how can i sort this out? its sending one of my programs crazy (fedora 4)
<1> move to america
<8> its a horrible thing the FDD should have gone with the 586
<2> ^5
<10> :O
<0> sean33, in fact a floppy and CDROM are the two least common denominators with standard IBM PC hardware. You can't just write off floppy drives.
<4> I sometimes carry around a USB floppy drive - just in case ;)
<10> anyone else can help me?
<2> rudyV: I keep one of those in my tool bag
<8> well we are not using the 8 inch ones or the 5.25 ones so why not piss off the 3.25 ones too
<5> well. more and more machines can boot from usb sticks
<1> _bt: system-config-language only displays one option for me which seems like a stupid program if you ask me, maybe it depends on fonts being installed or something idiotic like that
<8> yea i like usb sticks
<5> _bt: you could edit /etc/sysconfig/i18n
<4> yes USB is great :)
<10> XulChris, im running a java program and because its set on USA (en_US) it cant find translations
<5> sean33: they're not floppy at all. :>
<1> _bt: ya do what AndyCap said
<5> _bt: and file a bug in bugzilla. :)
<8> lol AndyCap true :)
