Aug 22 14:21:28 http://9to5mac.com/2012/08/21/apple-prototype-n90-iphone-hits-ebay-with-sweet-backside-logo/ Aug 22 14:22:47 jesus, it's the iphone 5 in all it's glory! someone cache the images before it gets removed Aug 22 14:23:43 or the iphone 4 maybe ? idk. Aug 22 14:24:33 who gives a shit, it comes out next month, and it's an iPhone Aug 22 15:19:45 GodGinrai, fxspec06: that's not the next iphone Aug 22 15:20:19 :O Aug 22 15:20:51 lol Tibfib, I haven't even looked at that link yet, because I couldn't give a rats ass about the new iPhone Aug 22 15:21:39 oh, I thought you were saying you didn't care about hte details, just that it was a new iPhone and it's next month! Aug 22 15:22:25 nah, I was saying that who cares about something so close to release Aug 22 15:22:38 and besides, it's an iPhone, why would I be interested? Aug 22 15:24:09 "know thy enemeny" Aug 22 15:24:18 "be friends with your enemy, love yor enemy" etc Aug 22 15:25:07 enemeny Aug 22 15:25:37 enemenemy Aug 22 15:25:54 lol Aug 22 15:26:01 Tibfib: enemenemenemy? Aug 22 15:26:30 enemenemenemeny, rather Aug 22 15:26:30 fxspec06: excuses, excuses, you giddy apple fanboi :P Aug 22 15:27:00 my current phone is an iphone… suppose that makes me a fanboy Aug 22 15:27:24 it could, it could Aug 22 15:27:56 am i still a fanboy if i don't own any devices? Aug 22 15:28:11 But I would be much more likely to call you one for posting links to possible iPhone prototypes in a channel for a competing cell phone os Aug 22 15:28:36 saying: jesus, it's the iphone 5 in all it's glory! someone cache the images before it gets removed Aug 22 15:28:52 lol Aug 22 15:28:58 and? how does that make me anything Aug 22 15:29:00 for a device only 1 month out from release Aug 22 15:29:08 i'm a technology fanboy. Aug 22 15:29:18 fxspec06: You're way too excited for it Aug 22 15:29:22 * fxspec06 guilty as charged Aug 22 15:29:31 i'm actually not, but hey, that's cool Aug 22 15:30:48 can't really claim technology fanboy as a reason to be excited about a new iPhone, because they haven't really been introducing anything groundbreaking Aug 22 15:31:15 they've just been improvements on something that WAS groundbreaking Aug 22 15:33:56 i'm really not going to talk about this here. Aug 22 15:34:44 I'm pretty excited about most new phones that are announced Aug 22 15:35:04 because they represent an imrpovement? Aug 22 15:35:11 and it bothers me when people accuse others of being fanboys… it's ridiculous. Aug 22 15:35:21 Oh, you like that??? YOU MUST BE A FANBOI Aug 22 15:35:26 I can't respect your opinion. Aug 22 15:35:35 (^that's a continuation of the previous line) Aug 22 15:35:57 Or rather: "Oh, you like that??? YOU MUST BE A FANBOI. I can't respect your opinion." Aug 22 15:37:09 lol, my fanboi comment was meant as a joke (hence the :P) I only defended it because fxspec06 tried to deny that what he said didn't seem fanboyish Aug 22 15:38:10 also, like I said earlier, it's the attitude that makes a fanboy Aug 22 15:38:13 well it wasn't. i was making a joke, because apple has a history of punishing people / sites that leak information Aug 22 15:38:42 Having an iPhone doesn't make you a fanboy, but freaking out about it does Aug 22 15:38:57 who was freaking out? Aug 22 15:39:04 fxspec06: I don't remember anything happening to gizmodo Aug 22 15:39:29 this reads as overly excited fanboy: jesus, it's the iphone 5 in all it's glory! someone cache the images before it gets removed Aug 22 15:40:32 GodGinrai: they got destroyed Aug 22 15:40:35 and i'm sure nobody in the world would ever be able to just find that funny and leave it alone Aug 22 15:40:38 Apple didn't invite them to future events Aug 22 15:40:53 it doesn't make me a fanboy. Aug 22 15:40:55 not sure if they are currently inviting them… but they haven't gotten invites recently Aug 22 15:41:26 fxspec06: when you are making jokes in non-vocal mediums, you need to use formatting and text cues to hint you are joking Aug 22 15:41:49 i'm a fan of their macs and ipods (excluding every ios device) Aug 22 15:41:56 it's pretty obvious i was making a joke. i think everyone here would think so. Aug 22 15:42:06 i did Aug 22 15:42:17 baboo: I would say their mac hardware is the best out there. Aug 22 15:42:24 YEA! Aug 22 15:42:28 It may be obvious to you, however it was not obvious to me or Tibfib Aug 22 15:42:35 speak for yourself Aug 22 15:42:48 OSX is nice, but W7 isn't bad Aug 22 15:42:59 or so I would assume about Tibfib, given his entering comment Aug 22 15:43:07 i say things in here all the time and don't get questioned for my comments. Aug 22 15:43:18 it isn't bad but OSX is better Aug 22 15:43:37 no, I didn't catch that it was a joke… but things often go over my head… and I don't think it's a big deal Aug 22 15:43:59 baboo: I dunno honestly. Been using osx for the past year. Used windows 7 before that. Good and bad to both Aug 22 15:44:18 Tibfib: My point is is that he needed to better telegraph when he makes a joke Aug 22 15:44:25 well you gotta remeber, OSX is unix Aug 22 15:44:35 so people understand it is one Aug 22 15:44:44 even a simple smiley helps Aug 22 15:44:57 :D Aug 22 15:45:05 GodGinrai: my point is that this is an IRC channel and it doesn't matter whether fxspec06 chooses to announce he is making a joke Aug 22 15:45:22 your input is greatly appreciated. Aug 22 15:45:55 Tibfib: That is true, but it does matter when he gets angry at me for misunderstanding due to his fault in conveying his meaning Aug 22 15:46:14 well you didn't need to jump on his throat for being an "apple fanboi" Aug 22 15:47:02 * fxspec06 bbl Aug 22 15:47:03 I didn't. I made a joke. I only explained my reasoning for calling him one because he denied it Aug 22 15:48:29 How often do you see someone make a serious accusation and then end it with " :P " ? Aug 22 15:49:29 well it was a joke, until you explained that it wasn't a joke… that you seriously thought he was a fanboi. Aug 22 15:49:33 This is a pointless conversation. Aug 22 15:49:42 bbl Aug 22 15:50:00 No, I explained why it made sense to CALL him a fanboi Aug 22 15:59:57 bbl **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Aug 22 17:34:23 2012 Aug 22 17:55:22 PatrickC_Away, haha im slow as fuk~ Aug 22 20:19:59 dawm! Aug 22 20:42:03 just launched www.sideprojects.com if anyone is interested Aug 22 20:45:43 no mention of webOS, and the sight has display errors on the webOS browser Aug 22 20:45:52 *site Aug 22 20:52:29 * PatrickC wonders if he can manage to install Windows on the Chromebox :) Aug 22 20:52:31 hehe Aug 22 20:52:34 or Ubuntu Aug 22 21:03:58 http://www.extremetech.com/computing/132300-unleash-your-chromebox-how-to-dual-boot-ubuntu-linux-on-your-chrome-os-device/2 :) Aug 22 21:13:05 PatrickC: isn't chromeos built on ubuntu? Aug 22 21:13:10 or is it suse or something Aug 22 21:33:49 cwayne, it's built on ubuntu Aug 22 21:34:07 but it has like nothing resembling ubuntu Aug 22 21:34:17 hardly any cmd line commands, anything.. Aug 22 21:35:46 PatrickC: just try to get into a tty Aug 22 21:35:53 whot? it's built on linux, not ubuntu Aug 22 21:36:41 linux kernel, ubuntu rootfs Aug 22 21:36:55 cwayne, they locked the entire box down. have to go into dev mode to do that Aug 22 21:36:59 very webOS like :) Aug 22 21:39:09 been a few weeks since i last used ubuntu though... Aug 22 21:39:12 :/ Aug 22 21:39:57 GOOD. ubuntu is shit Aug 22 21:41:12 GodGinrai, you do realize that cwayne works for them, right? ;) Aug 22 21:41:32 Google, or ubuntu? Aug 22 21:41:45 Ubuntu Aug 22 21:42:27 GodGinrai: whai? Aug 22 21:42:36 I LOVE ubuntu Aug 22 21:42:37 make that wai or why, but not whai Aug 22 21:42:42 but I like OS X more :) Aug 22 21:42:46 madnificent, haha Aug 22 21:42:47 GodGinrai: how is ubuntu shit? Aug 22 21:43:08 Well, there have to be people working for everyone. IMHO, I don't take kindly to a distro that hacks up things for no reason Aug 22 21:43:18 Xubuntu is where it's at Aug 22 21:43:36 GodGinrai: what did they hack up for no reason? Aug 22 21:43:47 JacksterD: xubuntu is excellent Aug 22 21:43:53 on the offside chance that that was a syntactically correct sentence, could you elaborate? Aug 22 21:44:13 cwayne: yep, tried Unity and it's kinda meh, but better than that insane piece of crap Gnome 3 Aug 22 21:44:30 * madnificent runs stumpwm under ubuntu Aug 22 21:44:37 well, amongst others, under ubuntu Aug 22 21:44:40 I thought everyone was just unfairly jumping on the Gnome 3 bashing bandwagon, then I tried it and realised no, it really is that bad Aug 22 21:44:42 IIRC, that change that makes the gnome-terminal report you can get a missing utility through apt-get was supposedly a real hack job Aug 22 21:44:48 JacksterD: lol, when did you last try unity? it's gotten a *lot* better with 12.04/12.10 Aug 22 21:45:15 GodGinrai: does it work? does it matter if it is a hack if it serves all purposes? Aug 22 21:45:22 seriously? that's what makes it shit? Aug 22 21:45:24 cwayne: it was probably actually the first version that was included with the mainstream Ubuntu and not just the netbook remix. Might give it another shot. Aug 22 21:45:29 you've been trollin' all day buddy Aug 22 21:45:39 JacksterD: oh god, it's much better now :) Aug 22 21:45:45 no cwayne, that's just one thing Aug 22 21:45:55 JacksterD: i know its still not for everyone, but it's so much better than it used to be Aug 22 21:46:37 GodGinrai: i think that what everyone here wants to say is: think long and hard before bashing something. formalize your reasons and know how to state them, and only then start stating them. either that or explicitly mention that it is a feeling. you are not necessarily incorrect, nor injust, but claiming things that way won't get anything further. Aug 22 21:46:52 My biggest problems with it are how it handles the root account, and how intrusive it is on a base install Aug 22 21:47:20 i find ubuntu to be one of the distros which handles the root account very nicely. i see little wrong with it. Aug 22 21:47:23 very little Aug 22 21:47:54 what what does it even do differently than debian in how it handles the root account? Aug 22 21:47:58 (not that the install is intrusive, but the base settings feel like it baby's you more than windows defaults Aug 22 21:48:31 cwayne, last time I used ubuntu, it didn't even allow you to make a root account Aug 22 21:48:41 it made it on its own Aug 22 21:48:52 GodGinrai: it does, and it already has one... and you *need* one. but why would you care Aug 22 21:48:57 and you could only get root access through sudo su Aug 22 21:49:07 GodGinrai: that is blatantly false Aug 22 21:49:17 hahah Aug 22 21:49:37 GodGinrai: please learn the system before bashing it. there are reasons to dislike ubuntu, but "i don't know what i'm talking about" is not one of them :) Aug 22 21:50:04 I wasn't a fan of the default font. Aug 22 21:50:17 Tibfib_: ah really? i love it Aug 22 21:50:37 yeah, I didn't care for it Aug 22 21:50:39 Tibfib_: actually, that's a more sane argument. you can change it, but at least it is correct. Aug 22 21:50:54 lol, if it finally lets you set the root password, then I'm happy about that. But I KNOW you couldn't log into root back when I tried it Aug 22 21:50:54 haha yeah, it is an actual legitimate argument :) Aug 22 21:50:57 I was never a fan of Unity Aug 22 21:51:04 GodGinrai: you are wrong Aug 22 21:51:14 GodGinrai: you've always been able to log into root Aug 22 21:51:19 and cwayne knows i never liked unity ;) Aug 22 21:51:29 yeah, i try to convert people all the time :P Aug 22 21:51:36 cwayne: to unity? Aug 22 21:51:41 madnificent: yeah Aug 22 21:51:55 just the people that tried it back in 10.10 and never tried it again Aug 22 21:52:01 cus it SUCKED until 12.04 Aug 22 21:52:04 cwayne: then what is the default root password? Aug 22 21:52:19 GodGinrai: there isn't one. that doesn't mean there's no account Aug 22 21:52:27 why the hell would there be a default root password? Aug 22 21:52:31 that would be horrible Aug 22 21:52:43 I never said there wasn't an account Aug 22 21:52:54 I said it didn't allow you to set the password Aug 22 21:53:07 I'm just gonna go ahead and /ignore you now Aug 22 21:53:09 cwayne, i just ended up going with Gnome Shell, sadly :P Aug 22 21:53:10 It never let me do that when I installed it Aug 22 21:53:20 i got annoyed with the bar staying on the left in the latest version, but aside from that it was productive. (however, it crashed on me, i couldn't get it running anymore, then gnome3 crashed on me and i couldn't get it running anymore either (probably for the same reason, i don't know what the problem is/was) after which i had to resort to a window manager i had hacked on at the time (CLFSWM) which i then dropped for lice Aug 22 21:53:20 and went back to STUMPWM, which has now made me more productive than ever... which means i have more time to chat). Aug 22 21:53:34 i tried unity on a touchscreen device thinking it would be nice Aug 22 21:53:37 I was WRONG Aug 22 21:53:38 fxspec06, just in time to join the party :) Aug 22 21:53:41 halfhalo, lol Aug 22 21:53:44 lol halo Aug 22 21:53:58 halfhalo: heh, i haven't tried yet Aug 22 21:54:00 GodGinrai: it did allow you to set the root password (and a well-configured sudo is likely better) Aug 22 21:54:10 halfhalo: LMAO! Aug 22 21:54:16 i heard gnome-shell is pretty decent on a touchscreen Aug 22 21:54:18 i prefer to use sudo vs su any day Aug 22 21:54:24 cwayne, it was on my laptop ;) Aug 22 21:54:30 but it probably would br Aug 22 21:54:30 be* Aug 22 21:54:36 unity has like... one multitouch gesture Aug 22 21:54:49 lol madnificent, because YOU watched me install ubuntu Aug 22 21:54:59 and if you needed to use the vkb to type in the dashboard thingie you were hosed Aug 22 21:55:18 There was only one password setting in the whole install. that was your user password Aug 22 21:55:19 halfhalo: yeah, that keyboards pretty awful still Aug 22 21:55:25 since whenever you tapped on the vkb the dashboard lost focus and went away Aug 22 21:55:33 gnome 3 was slightly better Aug 22 21:55:40 but I said screw it and stuck windows on it Aug 22 21:55:43 halfhalo: on the touchpad? Aug 22 21:55:49 haha windows Aug 22 21:55:53 windows 7 has better touchscreen support Aug 22 21:55:54 halfhalo is magic Aug 22 21:55:59 and THATS saying something Aug 22 21:56:09 halfhalo: and my immediate followup question if it was on the touchpad: was it complex to setup, did it run fine Aug 22 21:56:09 lol Aug 22 21:56:27 madnificent: theres no windows 7 for ARM Aug 22 21:56:29 madnificent, it wasn't on the touchpad.. i can almost guarantee that ;) Aug 22 21:56:31 so it couldnt have been touchpad Aug 22 21:56:41 not on touchpad, on dell latitude xt Aug 22 21:56:42 IMHO, I never liked the default gnome stuff. always preferred KDE, xfce, or fluxbox Aug 22 21:56:46 cwayne, well.. halfhalo does have some connections Aug 22 21:56:50 first gen one as well. 300 on ebay Aug 22 21:56:57 cwayne: that was not what i was asking either, i couldn't care less Aug 22 21:57:17 cwayne: ubuntu runs on the touchpad Aug 22 21:57:19 madnificent: wat Aug 22 21:57:27 now, you see, I _am_ a connection. until 5 today. When I leave the office and my internship Aug 22 21:57:40 madnificent: i thought you were asking about windows on the tp, sorry Aug 22 21:57:56 cwayne: no worries, i should've been either faster or more explicit :) Aug 22 21:58:03 (and probably friendlier) Aug 22 21:58:20 madnificent: lol, no worries :) Aug 22 21:58:22 what WERE you asking then? Aug 22 21:58:27 halfhalo, aww the internship ends today? Aug 22 21:58:40 yup. Aug 22 21:58:45 that stinks Aug 22 21:58:46 how was it? Aug 22 21:58:58 interesting Aug 22 21:58:58 halfhalo is an intern for who, HP? Aug 22 21:59:28 something like that Aug 22 21:59:29 GodGinrai: what i was asking? Aug 22 21:59:36 ah, I see Aug 22 21:59:43 and madnificent: yes Aug 22 22:00:19 GodGinrai: if he ran ubuntu/unity/gnome on the touchpad and what his experience was with it... he didn't Aug 22 22:00:41 people who listen to me make me laugh Aug 22 22:00:57 ok. I was just wondering, because I had thought you were asking about W7 as well XD Aug 22 22:01:02 i learned not to listen to halfhalo a long time ago :P Aug 22 22:01:23 GodGinrai: i was too slow :/ Aug 22 22:01:42 * madnificent goes for a walk, will be back with a faster brain (but will likely just start coding instead of chatting) Aug 22 22:01:42 An answer based on halfhalo's comment! you DO listen to him! :P Aug 22 22:02:03 madnificent, lol.. Aug 22 22:08:54 leaving work now, cya guys Aug 22 22:35:17 everyone go to http://twitter.com/sideprojectbook and follow/tweet/buy the book :) Aug 22 22:36:42 goddamn, i was supposed to be like really really concentrated right now, not just as distracted as 30 minutes ago! /o\ Aug 22 22:38:08 PatrickC: how are you involved?
