craftxbox

Rinzwind

@craftxbox EFI broke it

craftxbox

Rinzwind

22:06

@craftxbox see my 1st chat line o that

@craftxbox since the maintainer accepted that virtualization is the way to go

craftxbox

TheWanderer

yes

Android Dev

@craftxbox Yeah but it's really just the Win version in a WINE wrapper

craftxbox

TheWanderer

both

it's fully functional

Rinzwind

22:09

The server version needs a license

Android Dev

And it works over LAN too

TheWanderer

@Rinzwind but I don't think it sees Ubuntu as a server

Rinzwind

@TheWanderer hmm it does (?) (there are 2 versions of teamviewer)

craftxbox

wheres the x64 version

Rinzwind

The one I mean is the one that can do the connections between teamviewer sessions (like hand out the ID and passwords)

@craftxbox nowhere

TheWanderer

22:11

Rinzwind

TheWanderer

craftxbox

Rinzwind

@craftxbox what does that have to do with it?

craftxbox

Rinzwind

TheWanderer

@craftxbox you can run x86 software on x64 you know

Rinzwind

TheWanderer

Hey @seth LOL. It's me, you know.

Seth

Hi James!

Shouldn't be in disguise? :P

craftxbox

package architecture (i386) does not match system (amd64)

James Bond

@Seth I just watched 19 Bond movies, so 7 more to go. Do you like the Bond movies?

Seth

@JamesBond I'm more of a Mission Impossible person myself :)

James Bond

@Seth Ah, but I don't like Tom Cruise. =(

craftxbox

22:31

@NathanOsman

Seth

@JamesBond I can understand that.

James Bond

Now that Ubuntu is dropping Unity, will some other distro take it up and develop it?

craftxbox

ubuntu is dropping unity?

Nathan Osman

A couple of groups have started something.

craftxbox

hey nathan can you help

Nathan Osman

22:33

@craftxbox Sadly, yes.

craftxbox

rip

James Bond

@Seth For one, Seth is more handsome than Tom, the last I checked. =)

craftxbox

dpkg is failing

Seth

@JamesBond haha

@JamesBond Unity 8 yes, Unity 7 no.

Nathan Osman

@craftxbox Try dpkg --add-architecture i386

James Bond

The last time I installed Ubuntu 17.04, again it could not shut down. I had to do a manual shut down each time.

I checked all the online threads, and there were so many solutions for different people, and I just didn't want to try them all.

I think in the very least, an OS should be able to shut down properly.

So this problem is a real blocker for me.

craftxbox

dependancy problem

James Bond

@NathanOsman It's something nobody would expect to happen, since they spent years on it.

terdon

@JamesBond I've often seen that when I was mounting network shares. Could that be it?

And hi and welcome back, by the way! Good to see you again :)

Nathan Osman

If you can log in on another machine via SSH, you could check the syslog.

James Bond

@terdon Nope, I don't think I did that, because I don't even know what mounting network shares means. =) Actually, it happened in 16.10 as well, and even in 16.04.2 fresh install. Strangely, 16.04 itself was OK.

terdon

22:42

Next time, try completely disconnecting from any network before you shut down.

Or try posting a question here, we should be able to help.

James Bond

@terdon OK. Do you mean the internet too?

I guess network includes internet.

I think that's the only kind of network I connect to. I don't connect to other computers.

terdon

@JamesBond Yes, just in case.

When the machine doesn't shut down it is usually waiting for something to finish. That is often related to trying to find something on the network that isn't there anymore. Not always, but often. And that's the first thing I try when I have this sort of issue.

user136984

Goodnight! :)

James Bond

@ParanoidPanda See you in your dreams. =)

Seth

thunderstorm here.

I am glad the termites did not come to my house this year.

They come almost every April/May around this time.

terdon

In Antarctica!?

James Bond

@terdon Yup. Wait, I thought an interrobang is ?!

That must be called a banginterro.

terdon

I think it's both (not that I gave it much thought before writing it):

Interrobang

The interrobang (/ɪnˈtɛrəˌbæŋ/), also known as the interabang, ‽ (often represented by ?! or !?), is a nonstandard punctuation mark used in various written languages and intended to combine the functions of the question mark (also called the "interrogative point") and the exclamation mark or exclamation point, known in the jargon of printers and programmers as "the flub bang". The glyph is a superimposition of these two marks. == Application == A sentence ending with an interrobang asks a question in an excited manner, expresses excitement or disbelief in the form of a question, or asks a...

James Bond

Oh, actually I don't know anything about this either, other than the name.

Nathan Osman

All of my websites will be down for the next little bit.

James Bond

Should we be worried?

Nathan Osman

Hopefully not.

Just replacing some stuff.

I'm switching load balancers.

James Bond

Did you know that some people consider that use of hopefully wrong?

Some people say that the word is reserved for the meaning in a hopeful manner.

However, this use is so common now that only assholes would reject its use.

terdon

23:14

@JamesBond Oy! Don't you go calling my Dad an asshole!

:P

Mind you, I've had this argument with him so many times, I've often been tempted to do so myself.

I still refuse to use hopefully to mean I hope though. I have just accepted that that's what the word means now, unlike my father. Still don't like it though :)

Seth

I always put the question mark first. But I've never thought about why.

Now I'm questioning everything.

terdon

@Seth That's probably why you put it first then.

Seth

hahahahaa

@terdon I just had to fix bash code checking for return code that was using "?!" instead of "$?". The timing of your post is spooky :D
