Nice.

The only downside is NOW I HAVE THAT INFERNAL SONG IN MY HEAD.

Aaaand going back to that same song, here's Hitler's parody of it ( inb4 NSFW): youtube.com/watch?v=ZExMGZCCuhM

@NathanOsman well, you might wanna satisfy the urge with that one ^

@NathanOsman I threw a vote in the well, don't ask me I'll never tell (which type)

@Serg wat

alright, could do some programming today, now it's raining a lot outside, lots of lightnings, not sure if I should turn off the notebook and go to sleep

@IanC sleep sounds good

do that option

@Serg did you read the first comment of that song while listening the song? lol

@IanC Posted by KipKipXD Gaming ? No, i didn't get that one

I mean, i didn't understand where they heard that part

@ThomasWard I feel like coding a little more, but I'm a bit concerned the lightning will fry my computer :/

@Serg on the chorus, I could hear it too haha

@IanC desktop or laptop

@IanC just use the notebook on battery till the storm passes or gets better

laptop, but since my battery is a little "addicted" it works like a desktop :p

@IanC omg

I ran laptop battery conditioning and it took life from 90% to 84.9%... I thought that can't be right so reran it a month later and ended up with 83%. So now I won't run it again :p

My favorite rendition of that song is by Overly Attached Girlfriend, Lana

My laptop with 17" screen is really a desktop anyway... My cell phone is the new laptop and it has 1920x1080p as well :)

@Zacharee1 was that a "the comment made the video even better" OMG!!! or "man, that's dumb" omg? :D

Pfftt.. if only God was here to hear

Oh, and this one,too. Gold

YAY empty flags queue hail the darkness for it's power.

muahahahah

@WinEunuuchs2Unix what is that battery conditioning? I thought this battery "addiction" was not reversible

probably needs to re-up on his coffee

@IanC get a new battery, problem == solved

note to self raise lots of "not an Answer" flags for @ThomasWard

@WinEunuuchs2Unix *glares, and the LOKI weapons arrays start pointing in your direction*

i probably just need sleep

meh, in any case, back in a bit

@IanC battery conditioning as raised here in AU is when you unplug your power supply until batter <= 5% remaining.

@IanC it fits too well

@ThomasWard I'm thinking about it, I'll take a look at prices, I bought this notebook second hand, so I'm not even sure I can find a brand new battery for this model

@ThomasWard hops skips and jumps away from LOkI... My first time in this room you mentioned how you hate "Not An Answer Flags" so you set yourself up :p

oh, boy, i think i'm on the meme spree right now

@Zacharee1 how did that guy came up with that right? hahaha

oppa kraumfan XD ogawd

so if my phone supports USB PD would that explain its ability to charge suprisingly quickly on 500mA car chargers and laptop USB ports?

@Seth who is that female?... she looks vaguely familiar....

@WinEunuuchs2Unix ??

@WinEunuuchs2Unix iz ur mum

@Zacharee1 As opposed to...?

@Seth Don't "??" ME! you posted it!!!!! :p

Looks like Nancy Grace or Judge Judy or someone like that.

@WinEunuuchs2Unix There are 2. Mallory Everton and Whitney Call

@NathanOsman my Note 4, iPod Touch 4, iPad, etc always struggled with lower-power supplies, but my V20 charges really well on them. It isn't like it's on QC3.0 or something, but it's still a speedy charge.

@Zacharee1 I don't have a "mum" I was hatched from an unknown egg found deep in an top secret lake!

@WinEunuuchs2Unix iz ur eg

my egg is my comfortable bubble~!

I think @ThomasWard should ask an easy peasy question in AU so we can all answer it and get 1,000 upvotes!

Something like "Why won't my computer boot when I press the power button when it's not plugged in"

@WinEunuuchs2Unix Close>>OT>>Not About Ubuntu

@Zacharee1 So the story goes something like this: for all versions of USB, ports must provide at least 100 mA. Ports can provide up to 500 mA after negotiation on select ports. This is the maximum for USB < 3.0. Now, we all know that there are USB 2 devices that draw more power than 500 mA. That's where deviations from the spec and shorted data wires come in.

So, in other words, it's no-man's land out there.

well I have USB 3.0 on my laptop

but what about dedicated car adapters?

They typically short a couple of the wires to signal to the device that it can draw more power.

Oh that is what I need on my new build USB C

Some may even use proprietary signalling patterns to do this.

there's no official spec for the V20 saying it supports PD, but since the G5 does (found unofficially), I'm wondering if my V20 does too

Who knows. USB was great until version 3.0 came along and now we have more connectors than ever before with a bizarre combination of mixing and matching.

And it is now possible to damage devices by mixing and matching the wrong cables / ports.

So much for "universal".

fun

USB-C is fun though

and it's nice that it can support USB3.0 without that weird extension like with Micro

Lightning would be nice except for royalties.

it is a good design

but it isn't really USB, is it?

Yes, I agree.

No, it's not USB.

it's a proprietary protocol

It has a theoretical maximum of something like 40 Gbps.

which really annoys me

@NathanOsman "useful"

40 Gbps annoys you? :D

lol

by the time USB gets to 40Gb/s, Apple will either have gone through 10 more incompatible designs or it'll be dead

@Zacharee1 Most everything you post (SAMSUNG PHONE 7) is not about Ubuntu :p

Well, we do have 10GbE.

Like, USB-C is kind of annoying because now I only have 2 or 3 compatible cables that I carry with me instead of a near guarantee that where I'm going will have a cable that works, but at least it's backwards compatible

Bond four of those together and you have 40 Gbps.

@WinEunuuchs2Unix wat

I'd love to get USB THunderbolt

@NathanOsman is that USB?

@Zacharee1 No, it's ethernet.

@NathanOsman exactly

Well, it's still 40 Gbps.

I don't care if they shove it over serial.

@Zacharee1 Maybe it was @KazWolfe on Samsung 7 rant.... I get you too mixed up.

lol

@WinEunuuchs2Unix idk

@Serg busy there? just logged in utox for a second, any updates on that reading?

USB has 10Gbps

@Seth WAT

3.1?

3.1 gen 2

o_O

Exactly.

But it also has two dozen new connectors.

but can SATA/PCIe/m.2 even write that fast?

3.1 = Thunderbolt

PCIe is more than capable of those speeds.

@NathanOsman what about the drives?

RAID.

PCIe is onboard... USB is external though.

@NathanOsman meh

@WinEunuuchs2Unix the data has to transfer from/to somewhere

@Zacharee1 We gotta haz our 8K videos streamed to us uncompressed!

Am I the only system here with Intel Rapid Storage Technology built into motherboard?

You might be.

@NathanOsman we aren't even filming in 8k yet

@NathanOsman I should get a hat for only Intel RST :)

@IanC nah, i haven't read it yet. I need to catch up with everything

@Zacharee1 n00b

TL;DR

@Seth Owl City's songs are too addicting

@Zacharee1 Indeed. Like Alligator Sky?

@NathanOsman and for the most part, we're archiving in 2k

@NathanOsman oui

@Zacharee1 you're telling me

I like Silhouette though

My cellphone can film in 4K for crying out loud.

If my cellphone can do it, no excuse for producers.

I don't see the attraction to Owl City.... sorry.

@NathanOsman producers are filming in 4k, but not 8k

@WinEunuuchs2Unix catchy tunes

They need to up their game.

I want 16k 3D damn it!

@WinEunuuchs2Unix I also like power metal so there's that.

@NathanOsman can your phone do 8k? HUH???

@WinEunuuchs2Unix Pretty sure that exceeds PCIe bandwidth :P

@NathanOsman polar interests

@Serg No hurry! Any questions just call me here and we can have a chat on utox so I can help (if I know it haha) :)

@NathanOsman I think it exceeds light's bandwidth o_O

@Zacharee1 That's 33 MP.

Is it weird that I can hum along to this song when it's the first time I've heard it?

@NathanOsman I was just joking but I'm sure after PCIe.2 there will be version 3 and then version 4 :)

@NathanOsman I thought so

IMAX content is rendered at 70 MP, BTW.

^--- random fact

o_O

jesus cristo

Why do you think they were able to market such an immersive experience?

I need IMAX on my next laptop!... I knew I was missing something in life

Okay, that gets a star.

@WinEunuuchs2Unix 30-foot screen lol

hehe thanks buddy

"portable"

@NathanOsman all you need is a crane

@Zacharee1 projector on ciiy of Edmonton.

Fold-out screen - there we go.

now with a 2000 year lease option

@Zacharee1 make it happen!

lol

HD projectors are finally less than $1000. So... when we gettin' 4K projectors? :D

@NathanOsman you like Carly Rae Jepson right?

Instead of being Man on the Moon... lets shoot for projector to the moon.

Nop. Never listened.

@NathanOsman HD==720p

@NathanOsman I think you have

@WinEunuuchs2Unix That's one heck of a bulb.

might want to look her up

@Zacharee1 Not on purpose.

4k projector to living room wall seems realistic No???

@NathanOsman you know who she is right?

@WinEunuuchs2Unix On sale for... drumroll... the price of a new car!

@WinEunuuchs2Unix no

@Zacharee1 yes.

@WinEunuuchs2Unix Um, that'd be my alter-ego, AquariusOne, who would ask that

@NathanOsman Not a bulb... 4K lazer running Ubuntu 22.04.

Well what if we pair her with Owl City?

because he needs chatrep :P

@Zacharee1 She already was on one of the songs.

IIRC. Which I usually do.

@Zacharee1 that one song was good, but I didn't get the impression I'd like the rest of her songs.

@NathanOsman I know

@WinEunuuchs2Unix I never said I hated them

What @Seth said.

@Seth Call Me Maybe?

I just said that the queue is clean after that burning run

@Zacharee1 No.

lel

@Zacharee1 Just the sound of that turns me off

@ThomasWard Note to room watch out for Thomas with audit reviews under Pseudomonas "AquariousOne"

@NathanOsman read it

I thought cat pictures were soooo 2016?

yikes, turned the corner and came right smack into the face of an enderman

cat pictures are eternal.

@Seth o/

@Seth lolol

@WinEunuuchs2Unix Or was 2016 so cat pictures?

@Seth so you bought it?

@ThomasWard \o

or are you l33t craxxor?

@Zacharee1 no, friend had two copies, really wanted to play.

@Zacharee1 which game is this?

I'd never get a cat...maybe a Lion or Tiger would be more challenging to train so I'd consider that... but they just might kill me and I'm a little leary of death.

@NathanOsman TEH MINCREAFT

@Seth noice

@Videonauth lol

Hey @Videonauth Happy New Year!

@Zacharee1 TEH GAME HAZ NO PURPOSE

@NathanOsman THAT IS TEH PORPOISE

WAT

There is no purpose about anything really.

@NathanOsman ITS AN SANBOX GAEM

@WinEunuuchs2Unix this is true

game even :)

We exist to make money and spend it on each other, in order for others to make money.

@NathanOsman no I don't

I don't have room for a pet porpoise

You said that on porpoise!

This gets better as the evening ages, trust me :D

Nothing is more robust than multi-porpoise code.

considers freezing the room, but doesn't

hehe

@ThomasWard u woodnt deer

@ThomasWard considers banning everyone and deleting the room but doesn't

@NathanOsman considers banning the Internet, but doesn't because he would burn

It's minus 20 here and I saw a hot fresh girl at safeway an hour ago... Plus bonus she had a black car.

@WinEunuuchs2Unix TMI?

@ThomasWard @NathanOsman:

@ThomasWard yes

Of course forever bachelor me could only manage half a smile :(

@ThomasWard Don't know if it's TMI.... just telling the truth.

Arg. Slow Interwebz.

I think some in this room can relate to nerd complex though ;)

@WinEunuuchs2Unix I sorta can, 'cause I'm a nerd, but I never have that problem with women. :P

plss

@NathanOsman this

@ThomasWard You now days nerd is cool because they can make million +

there is that thing about the Darkness fueling my soul so... :P

@Zacharee1 Oooo...Owl City :D

especially if you have a girlfriend whose father runs a multi-million dollar company with tech problems.

@RPiAwesomeness wow, you too?

@WinEunuuchs2Unix MS?

Yeah, I like him :)

Good music :D

yeah

weird music

but good tunez

Can be at times, yes, lol

1 minute to go...

Breaking up the funness though, I've got a bit more serious question. Does this look weird to anyone else:

sudo apt autoremove
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  indicator-transfer indicator-transfer-download-manager kdiff3-doc
  libaccount-plugin-generic-oauth libindicator-transfer0
  libubuntu-application-api3 libubuntu-location-service3
  libubuntu-platform-hardware-api3 linux-headers-4.8.0-27
  linux-headers-4.8.0-27-generic linux-headers-4.8.0-28
  linux-headers-4.8.0-28-generic linux-image-4.8.0-27-generic

@Zacharee1 I met a guy who planned to make 2 million over 5 years selling MS to hospitals... he's probably rich now whilst I'm average with integrity shrugs

@RPiAwesomeness "Carried you off into the Alligator Sky" wat

@RPiAwesomeness Not necessarily.

Is that an upgrade or autoremove?

> sudo apt autoremove

@Zacharee1 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It's normal for old kernels to be removed with autoremove.

being rich doesn't make you live longer or be happier.... look at Prince, George Michaels, Mohammed Ali, Prince Lea, Princess Lieh's mother and all the rest of 2016.

@NathanOsman autoremove. Would that cause 637MB of removals?

@RPiAwesomeness what did you uninstall recently?

If you had a lot of old kernels, yes.

KDE?

Old kernels easily take up 100MB+ each.

I have like 40 kernels :(

I'm more interested in the lib* packages

@WinEunuuchs2Unix dafuq

I think the lib* packages are all devel-related.

So they won't break any applications likely.

Portal 2 is here!

Woo!

lol

@Zacharee1 Nothing major AFAIK. I did remove something but I can't remember what. It did somehow accidentally remove Ubuntu Settings...had to reinstall that

o_O

6.66 gb later Nathan makes a portal annoucement :p

I don't use Unity8/Mir, so I doubt it'll be an issue.

@NathanOsman \o/

that might be the issue?

Good game that

@Zacharee1 I guess

@RPiAwesomeness try an install -f
