00:14.14Sargunhttp://gentoo.org
00:14.39Sargun[ I don't say netBSD is all good ]
00:14.48SargunThose are the distros of choice.
00:15.02findlay-epcyou're just prejudiced against netbsd
00:15.10Sargunhow's your EEPC
00:15.35findlay-epccan't wait to get ubuntu on it
00:15.42Sargunhm
00:15.48findlay-epcalthough the xandros-based deal is pretty nice
00:15.51SargunI like my n810 much better with Maemo.
00:16.05SargunI'm going to try to get gentoo on my OLPC soon
00:16.13Sargunonce I get my developer key
00:16.17findlay-epcI though about the n810, but I like this format better
00:16.43findlay-epcwhy do you have to wait for a key?
00:17.18findlay-epcSargun: I'll probably end up with gentoo on here eventually :)
00:18.26findlay-epcgnuplot+scipy+vim is all I need :)
00:21.46Sargunfindlay, Good.
00:21.53Sargunfindlay, for my OLPC
00:24.36Sargunthe EEPC doesn't quite have the nifty factor yet
00:32.42nick125big big difference.
00:32.54nick125the OLPC is made for little children, while the eeepc isn't.
00:33.50Tenewhy?
00:34.01nick125Because you have an eeepc and I don't.
00:34.07TeneIf you want one, just go to your local pcclub and buy one like I did.
00:34.27nick125I don't have $400.
00:34.34Tenesteal it, then
00:34.39Teneor come work for guru labs.
00:34.44nick125haha
00:35.36nick125I'd be nice to have a small laptop to take with me
00:35.46nick125Tene: How are you liking it?
00:35.55TeneI'm liking itt so far.
00:36.13TeneI'm having a little bit of trouble with the keyboard but not much.
00:36.24TeneI'm mostly typing with three fingers instead of four.
00:36.40TeneI have big hands, though.
00:42.03nick125Tene: Could you see yourself using it everyday as a primary laptop?
00:42.44Tenenick125: as long as I have ssh access to a much faster system to compile stuff on occasionally, yes.
00:42.53Tenedepends on what I'm working on at the time.
00:43.02Tenefor email, web, IM, ssh, yes
00:51.07nick125I mean, for basic day-to-day things.
00:52.17nick125How's the speed on it?
00:52.49nick125Also, how's the battery life?
00:54.19Tenespeed seems just fine
00:54.30TeneI hear about 3.5 hours of battery

21:12.56SargunHello
21:12.58Sargunmacnewbold, why
21:13.13Sargunnick125,

21:14.41nick125Sargun: I'm bored out of my mind. :p
21:14.48Sargunnick125, I'm not.
21:14.55SargunI realized I hate math.
21:16.51nick125Sargun: You know what annoys me to no end? Those people who keep the plastic that comes with their phone on their phone.
21:17.29Sargunyeah
21:17.30Sargunme too.
21:17.35SargunOld people like goozbach do that.
21:18.31nick125My mom's boyfriend does that with his LG VX9400 since he got it in November.
21:18.54SargunHm, making people feel old gives you that incredibly warm happy feeling
21:19.09Sargunwhen you realize there is something nice about being young
21:19.17nick125He just took the little piece of plastic off of the buttons on the side because it was falling off
21:20.11nick125I'm like "... dude, I think it's time to take the plastic off" "no! I don't want it to get scratched"
21:20.30Sargunhhaha
21:23.26nick125http://www.shieldzone.com/item_description/LGVX9400S.html ah, perfect.
