[11:02:47] <BadUserException> you have nine virtual desktops there? [11:02:48] <PhantomSeriously> Lausi_: Accidentally stabbed it with a knife while chopping [11:02:49] <beancurd> BadUserException: minus the horrendous colours in that screenshot. my goodness. [11:02:52] <LordOfGummies> A procoder would be insulted someone had the arrogance to tell him what packages he should use. [11:02:59] <LordOfGummies> This is not customizable enough! [11:03:13] <beancurd> BadUserException: that’s not my screenshot, it’s the same WM i’m using though. [11:03:13] <Stagen> Agreed ;lr [11:03:16] <Lausi_> PhantomSeriously: Just curious; Who/what is “it”? [11:03:21] <BadUserException> okay [11:03:24] <LordOfGummies> I demand you give me nothing but the Kernel. I WILL CHOOSE MY OWN PACKAGES [11:03:30] <BadUserException> the fonts on the left look too skinny and blurry to me [11:03:38] <chan-chan> you guys should see my eyerape theme [11:03:48] <Stagen> LordOfGummies: you mean, you will WRITE your own packages? 
[11:04:05] <LordOfGummies> I will choose to write my own packages if I see yours not fit, I likely will. [11:04:10] <beancurd> i actually have 8 virtual desktops, and i use a different font. not that it matters, since i can change it to anything an a whim. [11:04:12] <Lausi_> I LIKE UBUNTU AND I DON’T CARE WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT THAT! [11:04:30] <Stagen> I LIKE OS X AND IT RULEZ!! [11:04:32] <LordOfGummies> Pfft caps lock, typical Ubuntu user. [11:04:37] <Stagen> lol ^^ [11:04:37] <BadUserException> one thing i can’t believe about Windows… is the complete lack of virtual desktop support [11:04:38] <beancurd> not all the desktops get used, but they’re there if i need them. [11:04:42] LordOfGummies combs his neckbeard. [11:04:44] <PhantomSeriously> Lausi_: Oh didn’t realise. My thumb [11:04:45] <BadUserException> i guess it’s because they design for clueless people [11:04:45] <LordOfGummies> Scrubs. [11:05:00] <AnimaSeverem> http://i.imgur.com/ogf3M.png My desktop. [11:05:03] <BadUserException> and virtual desktops is too “zomg where did my internets go” [11:05:05] <Lausi_> PhantomSeriously: Oh lawd, are you going to survive? 
[11:05:14] <LordOfGummies> Trillian, what the fuck!? [11:05:19] <beancurd> haha. [11:05:20] <LordOfGummies> You get the fuck out of here right now. [11:05:27] <LordOfGummies> Leave this place. [11:05:29] <LordOfGummies> Now. [11:05:33] <Stagen> omfg [11:05:34] <beancurd> that’s what that icon was. [11:05:36] <Stagen> HERETIC! [11:05:51] <AnimaSeverem> -_- [11:05:51] <PhantomSeriously> Lausi_: I don’t know! I may die from blood loss [11:05:58] <LordOfGummies> Thunderbird and Firefox are good but no Paint .net [11:06:03] <LordOfGummies> And where the fuck is notepad ++ [11:06:06] <LordOfGummies> You scrub. [11:06:12] <AnimaSeverem> It’s the green thingy on the bottom [11:06:12] <beancurd> LordOfGummies: so angry. [11:06:17] LordOfGummies rages. [11:06:18] <Lausi_> PhantomSeriously: Quick! Call the doctor! [11:06:27] <AnimaSeverem> Between Notepad and Openoffice [11:06:28] <PhantomSeriously> *dies* [11:06:36] <BadUserException> interesting [11:06:41] <LordOfGummies> Heh I’m happy someone else still uses Winamp. [11:06:44] <Stagen> PhantomSeriously: if you die, do we get your body? [11:06:47] <BadUserException> my desktop is full of iles [11:06:49] <LordOfGummies> Winamp is fucking awesome if you have a Android cellphone. [11:06:52] <BadUserException> it always gets this way [11:06:54] <BadUserException> files* [11:06:55] <AnimaSeverem> Oh man [11:06:56] <Stagen> Winamp? Kek [11:06:57] <LordOfGummies> Wireless syncing for the win. [11:07:02] <dale1v> ugh [11:07:06] <PhantomSeriously> Stagen: I’m curious… what for? [11:07:07] <AnimaSeverem> I remember what I used when I was stuck on a pen drive [11:07:07] Lausi_ revives PhantomSeriously [11:07:09] <AnimaSeverem> Coolplayer. [11:07:09] <AnimaSeverem> Ugh. [11:07:11] <JustTheTip> PhantomSeriously: Bucket list, bucket list! [11:07:16] <AnimaSeverem> Crashing every five minutes for no reason [11:07:21] <AnimaSeverem> But it did work with the media buttons on my keyboard [11:07:24] <Stagen> PhantomSeriously: you don’t want to know. [11:07:24] <JustTheTip> PhantomSeriously: Item 1 : Skyrim [11:07:29] <dale1v> LordOfGummies: in my experience its slow as shit [11:07:30] <LordOfGummies> Please don’t tell me you let CCCleaner clean your registry. [11:07:45] <AnimaSeverem> Is there a reason why I shouldn’t? [11:07:50] <dale1v> the player itself on android is pretty crap as well [11:07:51] <BadUserException> that wallpaper is nice [11:07:54] <Stagen> lol [11:08:09] <AnimaSeverem> What’s wrong with letting CCleaner clean my registry? [11:08:13] <LordOfGummies> Is there a reason you shouldn’t let a 3rd party untrusted, closed source application delete entries in your registry? [11:08:15] <PhantomSeriously> Stagen: I’m scared of you now [11:08:16] <LordOfGummies> Yes… yes there is. [11:08:36] <leontopod> http://www.intertwingled.net/galadriel.jpg <== this is the desktop background for all of my computers [11:08:42] <Stagen> PhantomSeriously: suuure [11:08:42] <AnimaSeverem> It works well enough. [11:08:56] <PhantomSeriously> Stagen: I am D: [11:09:02] <Stagen> 404, leontopod [11:09:06] <AnimaSeverem> Better than the Regcures and Registry Cleaners they peddle out there anyway [11:09:24] <BadUserException> no 404 here [11:09:29] <leontopod> wat? [11:09:38] <leontopod> http://www.intertwingled.net/galadriel.jpg [11:09:38] <BadUserException> just a slow server [11:09:41] <leontopod> that should not be a 404 [11:09:46] <leontopod> well, yeah [11:09:48] <leontopod> it’s my DSL [11:09:48] <BadUserException> i see a woman [11:09:58] <BadUserException> do you really use that? [11:10:05] <Stagen> Total time out here [11:10:07] <BadUserException> that would drive me crazy [11:10:08] <leontopod> yes [11:10:15] <Stagen> Yea, ditto [11:10:25] <Lausi_> I wish my real desktop was as clean as the one i have in windows. [11:10:28] <AnimaSeverem> AAAAAHHH [11:10:32] <AnimaSeverem> LINUX MINT USES GNOME?! [11:10:36] <BadUserException> doh [11:10:38] <LordOfGummies> Gnome 2. [11:10:44] <AnimaSeverem> FFFFUUUUUU [11:10:47] <LordOfGummies> But this is Linux, if you don’t like your shell use another. [11:10:48] <BadUserException> maybe it has performed plastic surgery on gnome [11:10:51] <Stagen> Though, I’m on a 30/infinite connection so I’d hardly notice anything [11:10:56] <BadUserException> AnimaSeverem: just use Windows [11:11:08] <AnimaSeverem> ……. [11:11:15] <LordOfGummies> I pesonally would just recommend Windows, desktop Linux is just painful. [11:11:19] <Stagen> Or OS X [11:11:22] <hfaafb_work> >infinite [11:11:23] <hfaafb_work> lololo [11:11:23] <BadUserException> srsly [11:11:27] <chan-chan> my beautiful color choices for mint http://i.imgur.com/p5wpu.png [11:11:31] <AnimaSeverem> should’ve known I’d run into holy wars in here [11:11:32] <fperez> they need to mandate that thanksgiving is now the last friday of the month instead of thursdays. i want a three day weekend! [11:11:38] <LordOfGummies> Eye rape. [11:11:40] <BadUserException> AnimaSeverem: i say this out of compassion [11:11:43] <BadUserException> not out of zeal [11:11:46] <fperez> LordOfGummies, i prefer linux on my laptop, but i dont play games on my laptop [11:11:55] <Stagen> hfaafb_work: as in, I don’t know where the limit is. [11:12:01] <AnimaSeverem> I’m on a laptop [11:12:05] <fperez> having the super awesome performance tweaking available in linux makes it perfect for laptops [11:12:05] <hfaafb_work> I’m on a horse [11:12:05] <chan-chan> need something to keep me awake [11:12:13] <fperez> chan-chan, coffee [11:12:17] <beancurd> LordOfGummies: keyboard shortcuts! and windows cost monies 
[11:12:37] <LordOfGummies> Atleast Linux users know their OS sucks for gaming and accept that. Mac OS users despirately try to fit in only to get the general scoff from the community. [11:12:38] <chan-chan> or eyerape theme [11:12:42] <BadUserException> yeah, Mint looks rather GNOME-y [11:12:44] <LordOfGummies> HEY GUYZ I CAN RUN TF2 TOOOOO! [11:12:55] <fperez> yea, just install windows! [11:12:57] <chan-chan> but its not using gnome i think [11:13:05] <LordOfGummies> That is gnome 2 [11:13:10] <LordOfGummies> What you’re using in that screen shot. [11:13:14] <BadUserException> i used linux only for several years. i was so relieved when i came back to windows [11:13:17] <chan-chan> its using lxde [11:13:24] <chan-chan> i dont really know what that is [11:13:27] <BadUserException> it’s easy, and everything works [11:13:31] chan-chan is casual [11:13:39] <beancurd> lxde is cool, and fast. [11:13:46] <LordOfGummies> Yeah Windows 7 with the classic theme combine off and small icons. [11:13:46] <fperez> BadUserException, i never exclusively used linux. i primarily used it for a long time, but mostly for learning purposes. but i always have windows on my desktop [11:13:48] <LordOfGummies> That’s how I roll. [11:13:52] <fperez> not being a fanboi makes life so much easier [11:13:59] <fperez> icons? [11:14:01] <BadUserException> yes, i was a fanboi for a while [11:14:04] <chan-chan> the problem i have with windows on my netbook is that my screen is less than 600 pixels tall [11:14:05] <fperez> i roll without icons tyvm [11:14:08] <AnimaSeverem> I won’t call myself a Windows fangirl. [11:14:19] <AnimaSeverem> But I do prefer it to anything from Apple. [11:14:28] <fperez> chan-chan, shit, i would never run windows on my netbook. but i also have the aspire one and it cant even handle XP lol [11:14:34] <LordOfGummies> I used to enjoy Apple stuff until they pissed me off. [11:14:40] <chan-chan> it can handle win 7 [11:14:49] <BadUserException> i guess it’s good to have two computesr [11:14:51] <fperez> AnimaSeverem, i prefer apple mobile products, but i would never buy an apple computer [11:14:54] <BadUserException> one for Windows; the other for something else [11:14:57] <Apple> I like Apple computers [11:15:00] <chan-chan> but a lot of applications cut off screen [11:15:02] <beancurd> i’m a computer fanboi, i like computers, windows is cool for games, apple is cool for coherance, linux is cool for variety and well documented everything, and non-douchebaggery. [11:15:02] <cyoz> how long will it take and nationalities no longer exist and people describe themselves as “apple-person” befire “american”? [11:15:06] <LordOfGummies> I prefer Android for my mobile solution. [11:15:07] <chan-chan> because of the res [11:15:08] <fperez> mostly because on my desktops i like building them myself, and the thinkpad laptops are superior IMO [11:15:18] <LordOfGummies> thinkpads are nerd cannons [11:15:19] <chan-chan> in linux it has that alt to move windows very handy [11:15:21] <LordOfGummies> I love those things. [11:15:23] <fperez> i prefer my LG flip phone [11:15:24] <AnimaSeverem> Apple makes overpriced underfunctioning crap. [11:15:26] <Stagen> My destop, if you care: http://cl.ly/BzSO [11:15:26] <fperez> but i have an ipod touch [11:15:27] <redditalien> Title: Skærmbillede 2011-11-21 kl. 17.13.59.png (at cl.ly) [11:15:37] <Apple> Fuck [11:15:40] <fperez> AnimaSeverem, eh, the price range of their laptops is in line with other high end laptops [11:15:49] <fperez> LordOfGummies, they are beasts! [11:15:57] <LordOfGummies> Apple is good at marketing, they’ve convinced the public that paying more therefore means you’ve gotten the best. [11:15:58] <AnimaSeverem> When my laptop was new, a MacBook with the same or similar specs was twice the price. [11:16:02] <fperez> im getting the x220 convertible once i get the cash. so sexy [11:16:07] <LordOfGummies> You have to have respect on how they’ve manipulated the public. [11:16:11] <LordOfGummies> It’s good marketing. [11:16:28] <BadUserException> iPhones are ridiculously expensive as well [11:16:31] <Stagen> LordOfGummies: true [11:16:31] <AnimaSeverem> I had four iPods over the course of 2 years, each one of which failed. [11:16:33] <fperez> AnimaSeverem, well apple hasnt always been reasonable with prices, but if you were to buy now they are not a ripoff anymore [11:16:39] <chan-chan> iphones are ok [11:16:44] <LordOfGummies> Again, people pay more for iPhones so they can feel they’ve gotten the best. [11:16:46] <AnimaSeverem> And if they do break you can’t fix them. [11:16:47] <JamesGray> why’d you buy 3 more after the first one failed? [11:16:48] <LordOfGummies> Doesn’t mean it is the best. [11:16:53] <LordOfGummies> Just makes them feel that way. [11:16:54] <fperez> LordOfGummies, it’s easy to manipulate the public when you tell them they are cool and unique butterflies for buying your product lol [11:16:57] <Stagen> LordOfGummies: though for some people the OS is still the best choice (and a personal preference of mine) [11:17:00] <AnimaSeverem> I didn’t buy the second one. [11:17:06] <fperez> in 15 years microsoft will be the ones running those adverts when macs take over the market share [11:17:08] <AnimaSeverem> Actually, the first two were gifts. [11:17:14] <LordOfGummies> Mac… market shares. [11:17:15] <LordOfGummies> BAHAHAHAH! [11:17:19] <Klevre> [11:17:20] <fperez> AnimaSeverem, you can fix iphones [11:17:20] <redditalien> Title: 3D Sex and Zen Extreme Ecstasy Trailer HD 2011 – YouTube (at www.youtube.com) [11:17:21] <beancurd> LordOfGummies: ever had to wait for your vendor to catch up to the latest android release? [11:17:27] <LordOfGummies> Oh dude, you’re not supposed to drink the bong water. [11:17:34] <fperez> i open my ipod touch up and replace the broken parts [11:17:36] <chan-chan> i dont understand chromebooks [11:17:37] AnimaSeverem doesn’t evne use a bong [11:17:43] <AnimaSeverem> I don’t trust myself with hardware [11:17:43] <beancurd> my goodness that is a pain. [11:17:44] <chan-chan> or whatever they are called [11:17:46] <JamesGray> custom builds of android are better anyways 
[11:17:52] <chan-chan> they are just a browser right [11:17:53] <AnimaSeverem> I wish I had a cell phone [11:17:54] <beancurd> that and samsung + keys. [11:17:55] <LordOfGummies> I have a HTC Incredible, that thing is fucking solid. [11:17:57] <LordOfGummies> Amazing phone. [11:18:01] <fperez> chan-chan, what’s not to understand? they are lightweight laptops with a focus on cloud storage [11:18:05] <LordOfGummies> Hundreds of bucks less than the iPhone. [11:18:07] <BadUserException> i still have a ‘dumb’ phone [11:18:16] <BadUserException> i don’t like how ‘smart’ phones consume so much battery [11:18:17] <AnimaSeverem> I had a phone with shitty battery life [11:18:24] <LordOfGummies> Turn off the GPS [11:18:27] <AnimaSeverem> All I want is a phone with a keyboard on it [11:18:29] <JamesGray> I think I’mma buy my sister a smartphone for christmas [11:18:31] <fperez> LordOfGummies, i cant stand having smartphones for some reason. it’s weird considering im an IT “expert” [11:18:32] <BadUserException> i bought a phone for £2.90 the other day [11:18:34] <BadUserException> a back-up [11:18:40] <AnimaSeverem> For mobile computing I’ll get a tablet pc [11:18:41] <BadUserException> it’s awesome [11:18:45] <chan-chan> yeah but its just one browser window right [11:18:46] <AnimaSeverem> maybe a Samsung Galaxy [11:18:47] <BadUserException> one of the best phones i’ve ever had [11:18:49] <MedlirWork> I got an iPod Touch as a gift, and then dust collected on the inside of the screen and Apple replaced it. And the replacement the headphone jack stopped working. [11:18:53] <AnimaSeverem> Or one of those new-fangled HP tabs [11:18:53] <Two9A> BadUserException: Do tell [11:19:02] <Two9A> I could do with a 3-quid phone [11:19:03] <LordOfGummies> Do not buy a HP tablet. [11:19:05] <AnimaSeverem> But sadly [11:19:07] <AnimaSeverem> I’m poor [11:19:10] <LordOfGummies> There is no support for web os. [11:19:18] <LordOfGummies> So unless you want to custom place android on it. [11:19:20] <fperez> Medlir, i just replaced my own screen and headphone jack. it was so satisfying doing it myself [11:19:23] <LordOfGummies> There is no point in buying one. [11:19:26] <AnimaSeverem> What non-Apple tablet would you recommend for a mobile noob? [11:19:34] <BadUserException> Two9A: it was this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004V2MOGG but they seem to be out of stock now [11:19:34] <LordOfGummies> HP fired the entire webos development team, there is no support. [11:19:34] <AnimaSeverem> (as in I’ve never owned a mobile anything before) [11:19:39] <fperez> AnimaSeverem, what are you using it for? [11:19:57] <LordOfGummies> I had a Asus a500 it’s budget but really good for the price. [11:19:57] <JamesGray> just get some random android tablet [11:20:01] <fperez> lol HPs old CEO is a moron. with the new person i might eventually lift my personal HP ban [11:20:02] <LordOfGummies> It will run you about 300 bucks. [11:20:03] <JamesGray> read reviews for ones in your price range [11:20:04] <BadUserException> and £14.90 from a third-party rather than £12.90 (including £10 credit) [11:20:12] AnimaSeverem is on an HP laptop [11:20:14] <AnimaSeverem> -_- [11:20:15] <chan-chan> dont get a really cheap android one [11:20:22] <AnimaSeverem> It’s got a crapton of dead pixels in the screen
