@thatonestocking If less people would eat meat, less meat would be produced and less animal life would be created to be slaughtered. That's basic economy. It makes no sense to create animal life and feed it if it won't make any money.

@mrdragon Guys who believe to be animals born in human bodies, it's a variation of the psychological disorder people who believe to be born in a body of the opposit gender have.

I wonder if there is a sane way to have Windows/Linux boot/Linux swap/Linux root/Linux temp or whatever would be good for a Gentoo system I will most likely completely break. I have absolutely zero clue about the advantages and disadvantages of "extended file systems". Hmm... *thinks*
-
@widget I'm too tired to speculate as to why it happens. I was supposed to be going to bed over an hour ago actually.

@toksyuryel It's a shame /home is better off separated from the rest. I really think I'd prefer / and /home to be together so that I don't have to worry about disk space, but that is risky if I destroy my system? :/

Some of you are Linux people..... If anyone has knowledge of Ubuntu (or maybe any Linux), I would ask for your help.

@omni thank you, I shall check this out. :)

@thelastgherkin I'm no baby.

@pony See, that's what you don't get. Is not about being misinformed. It's about paying whatever price to buy the only commodity I need. If you have diabetes, and the only guy who has insuline says "I'll give it to you if you give me your car" you'll give him the car because it's either that or death. I, like all humans, am sick with death. As such, no price is too high for the cure.

I got used to the package management program "pacman" from Arch Linux. Even the PKGBUILD system and the arch user repository is well implemented to my surprise. To make things easier I compiled pcruses, a ncurses gui for pacman, with a little modification on my arm system.

@omni It depends. If you need a centralised server that should store all your data then it is the way to go. Otherwise it is not necessary. Also this pogoplug can be used for more than storing simple files. I'm looking how to install a caldav, webdav server to synchronise my calendars and address books. Or i just install owncloud. I don't know yet.
-
@broniebrown OwnCloud was a bit buggy for me, but I wonder if I could run LAMP and some game servers on a NAS, or if it would be too weak for that :x
-
@omni My pogoplug for example only has 256mb RAM and a 1.2GHz ARM processor and Arch is installed on a 16GB usb stick. On the plus side: this system doesn't suck as much power than a full PC.

@scribus I tried it in VirtualBox. It gave a segfault but just kept running. It seems decent, though, I'd love to really try it once.
-
@omni Yeah, last I heard it was still heavily in-development, and then I heard nothing more.

The top-selling laptop on #Amazon is not a Windows 8 laptop. No, it doesn't run Windows 7. It's not a Macbook either. Surprise, surprise, it's a Chromebook! http://mobile.slashdot.org/story/13/01/02/0048248/chromebook-takes-top-place-in-laptop-sales-on-amazon

@sweetiebot Chrome OS =/= Google Chrome

@omni how much does one cost anyways
-
@sweetiebot The Chromebook is question was around $330, I believe.

Someone replied to me at Giant Bomb: "hide made me want pink hair. I wanted my hair exactly like in the Rocket Dive video. Was probably for the best I didn't. I'm already balding." Makes me want to try it.

@techdisk But that's dangerous. The best way is to make it sound like you're doing advanced stuff (moving RAID15 storage to a Cross-platform Compatible CMS-based Cloud Storage system) when you're doing nothing more than copying data. Bonus points for telling the truth.

Okay, I want today to be better than the last few days. Work is sucking pretty hard, but I've got Muse on my iPod and my DS. And you guys. Hopefully it isn't too bad.

I found a way without using an addon: Move everything to the main toolbar, remove the navigation toolbar, done. I recommend Classic Compact.

@thatonestocking With all due respect, Linux can get way better gaming performance than Windows even with the crappy drivers we have currently. My phone battery is rather low, so I can't give you a link, but VALVe posted a blog post about how they had several times more FPS on their Linux version of L4D2 (which was barely optimised) than under the thoroughly optimised Windows version.
-
@thatonestocking Linux supports more OpenGL stuff than MAC, though. But yes, I see and agree to your point.
-
@omni I was under the impression that was a DirectX/OpenGL performance difference, though...?
-
@redenchilada They didn't give Windows OpenGL stats (although that would've probably given Windows users some more FPS as well) but I recall them talking about how the more efficient Linux kernel could've been a major cause for the performance difference.
