Unity user made me chuckle... because my internal dialogue was "Wow, they got that one right. That's the one guy that uses Unity"

Terrance

LOL

Well, fitting that Fedora is Data Center

It should be more RedHat though

Seth

You think I wear a suit? Hah.

hbdgaf

@Seth You know what I meant.

Seth

@Rinzwind I think kali should be the same as Mint :P

@hbdgaf I know :p

Rinzwind

22:06

@Seth what you want someone to hack Kali website? :=)

Seth

@Rinzwind I mean 90% of kali questions are from noobs that think they are elite haxors because they are running kali

hbdgaf

@Rinzwind Someone got the Defcon website with a phpBB 0day bug a while ago.

Rinzwind

true :=)

Seth

@hbdgaf did they really? Ouch!

(why was defcon running phpBB?!!?)

hbdgaf

No idea.

Rinzwind

22:08

@Seth that's what they are asking themself :-P

Seth

lol

Zacharee1

@Rinzwind I take it we don't really like Gentoo or Mint :p

Rinzwind

@Zacharee1 I did not make the image :-P

Zacharee1

It seems the creator only likes Fedora, CentOS, Ubuntu, and Kali

I WANT THE G5!

AGH

It's such an exciting phone!

hbdgaf

I thought arch was entirely innacurate, as were most of them.

It's why my internal dialogue made me laugh.

Zacharee1

22:12

People complain that the LG's design looks a little dull, and it does, but it's nearly the same as the iPhone

Rinzwind

@Zacharee1 so their complaint is correct? >:-D

hbdgaf

@Rinzwind You owe me a keyboard.

Rinzwind

@hbdgaf send me your back account number! :D

hbdgaf

Sure, here you go... blink

Zacharee1

@Rinzwind But of course! My problem is that they say the iPhone looks good

Shots fired

I can't understand why someone can't just build a nice, usable, reliable phone. The G5 is cheesy, the GS7 is still.. Samsung. Shiny and TouchWhiz. Motorola is as close as it comes but they aren't good with updates now that Lenovo owns them. That leaves Nexii.

Zacharee1

I'm not generally one to go after design, but gNewSense looks like simplyMEPIS 6.0

Seth

Oh and HTC is not sensible.

(pun intended)

Zacharee1

@Seth What's "cheesy" about the G5?

Rinzwind

@Zacharee1 Gouda :=)

Zacharee1

@Seth so done with your jokes face here

@Rinzwind I like gouda

Another reason to get it!!!

Rinzwind

22:18

@Zacharee1 I have 2 kilo in the fridge :-D

Zacharee1

@Rinzwind mail it here :P

Seth

@Zacharee1 All the stupid accessories I will never use. And the pop out battery thing looks extremely fragile.

Have you ever had to put a 2.5" HDD in or out of an external case? Now imagine doing that whenever you open the G5.

Zacharee1

@Seth Oh, I'm definitely never going to use accessories, but the popout is actually very stable, according to every hands-on early reviewer

@Seth and it's still not technically released. Even though it's probably hit its final build, there is still a chance something will change

Seth

I like the G4, but the screen is rather large. That was one thing I liked about the G5. Slightly more sensible screen size.

Zacharee1

And not the 4GB RAM?

And the always-on screen?

Seth

22:20

@Zacharee1 "naw, we went back to the old battery compartment design" yeah right ;)

Zacharee1

4GB RAM is the norm for most budget laptops

Seth

@Zacharee1 Nope. Couldn't care less.

Zacharee1

@Seth What does that say?

Seth

sorry, got mangled in editing.

Zacharee1

Be glad LG actually made the G5 an upgrade. The S7 is an S6 with a curved back

@Seth still don't understand :p

Oh I get it

I wasn't saying that

Since the battery is tricky to take out and put in, they may revise the connector

And be glad they actually have a removable battery. Even Google killed that

There's also a lot less bloatware on the phone.

James

22:24

Yes, @Seth does get points for that stab

Zacharee1

wat

Ask Ubuntu Meta

Q: Does anyone know how the "best Q & A" of AU is decided in the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter?

Excuse me my vanity, which is the background of this question, but here we go... To prevent misunderstandings: this is not about the ask ubuntu newsletter, but the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter, sent by Elizabeth K. Joseph Since long I have been subscribed to the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter. I never...
