I'd love to get one, though

but you have to preorder it, and it's ~400eur of downpayment

Yeah, I'd love to get Dragonbox.

But it is expensive.

and you don't know when and if you'll get one

Handy as hell, but expensive.

I don't really know any analogs to it.

so thanks but no thanks, if I'd be able to go to the shop and buy it for ~400eur I'd consider, but this, well, nope

I am so sad that there are no handy UMPCs with size of Asus EeePC 701 now for affordable price and with variety of ports.

yeah, I'd love to get something like that, just not on this terms

I have too special requests for devices, don't I?

There is one thing about 701 that I really love. A modem.

I've got one in x200, but I wouldn't have anywhere to connect it to anyway, so it is left unused

quietly laughing about Ubuntu abandoning Mir and switching to Wayland in the future, it's systemd all over again, when Ubuntu was developing its own solution and then abandoning it and switching to what all others are laready using :D

Cool just chilling right now

I used it widely at one point in life.

I have 2 x201's

right now in Poland the only two situations you've got a landline is that you're either an old person and always had it so you still have it, or you've got it with cable tv and broadband so you've got a phone lying somewhere at home and don't use it anyway

mobile phones have phased out the landlines pretty succesfully

but there's definitely a lot of romanticism in having a modem, going to the phone booth and connecting to a BBS... going full cyberpunk with it ??

the hardest part would probably be finding an actual phone booth

BBS, I haven't read this since Bruce Sterling "The hackers crackdown".

On previous week we talking about starting bbs on work phone... ?

Yes I don't know too many with them at this point

❤️

also there are some BBSes still running, to which you can connect using telnet

We decided that the most fun will be to use for bbs ip-telephony.

Awesome.

Make Ubuntu great again? https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2017/04/ubuntu-unity-is-dead-desktop-will-switch-back-to-gnome-next-year/

If only Mark will start to listen to community again...

Do you know computer hardware configuration, how to improve the CPU frequency

I actually quite like Unity, I hope this is about going back to Gnome-based Unity environment and not to vanilla Gnome

Unity is easy to use, stable and recognizable, it would be a shame if it would be thrown away

Yeah

It also got nice features not that long ago

Like being able to move the dock to the bottom

one of my favorite features there is quick finding of application menu items

I might just install 16.04 and keep it until 2021 lmao

like: you're editin a text file, want to use File -> Save, so you just press alt, type "save" and it is suggested, so you may press enter and trigger it

TFW my Fedora is still 24

one of my favorite features there is quick finding of application menu items

Y e s

also combining menu bar and title bar

@ColonelPhantom is here too

but this searching is not unity-exclusive, see: https://github.com/p-e-w/plotinus

@ColonelPhantom is here too

I use fedora so ye

What do you use these days brig

oh waddup

I use fedora so ye

Tanuj told me about this place btw

I'm laughing as well, but not that quietly... ?

We always criticize Ubuntu cuz they force user to use unity, and when they abandoned unity to gnome (maybe) we are laughing at them too ?

Well... I was seeing it coming. It simply makes no sense to keep up projects that are reinventing the wheel.

Sooner or later this was going to happen.

Yeah I don't like Ubuntu policy, I wish they would stop spying on users too.

Another point too.

Stay on topic please.

Well... I was seeing it coming. It simply makes no sense to keep up projects that are reinventing the wheel.

I realy feel sad about a lot of effort they spent on upstart, mir and unity. If only they spent the same on systemd, wayland and gnome, we would have much better products already.

Exactly. Is a waste of time, effort and money. They could just tweak these projects to fit their needs so everybody would benefit.

only fedora?

only fedora?

Yes, ofc.

only fedora?

Well, Fedora-related things or free and open source software

ERROR: S client not available

We talk about a lot of things not specific to Fedora but about FOSS so I see no reason why it's bad to share what other distributions are doing

It's one thing to send a link to an article about something another distro is doing, but quite another to go blatantly telling people in a Fedora group to use another distro

how to sublime install? fedora not support?? :(

The second option is obviously not allowed but I see no issue with the first

how to sublime install? fedora not support?? :(

It is possible! You have to download the binary, though and run it.

how to sublime install? fedora not support?? :(

you can unpack it and it will work

I think there's actually an install script or a .desktop file included too

how to sublime install? fedora not support?? :(

Google it, I already installed it

But don't remember the way ?

can you show video or txt instruction

Google it, I already installed it

It's a binary file, so you can just run it in the command line

there are also many alternative editors that you may try: geany, builder, atom, vim, emacs...

Cuz I moved to vim.later on

Although I moved mine to /opt/ and put the .desktop file into /usr/share/applications/

Yes, ofc.

I don't see it as offtopic...

how to sublime install? fedora not support?? :(

You can enable russianfedora-nonfree repo and install Sublime Text 3 package from it. ?

It's a binary file, so you can just run it in the command line

No I run it as an app but by complex steps

can you show video or txt instruction

You can likely find something more specific online because it's the same for any distribution.

Vim is awesome

Emacs too, it was built by the greatest programmer of all times, Richard stallman ✌️

can all tel me sublime best alternative in fedora . "best"

I find Atom and Sublime to be mostly similar

Or how rotten Fedora is, as it happened days ago.

That too :P

I rather like Atom.

there is no "best" alternative, it all depends on personal tastes.

I rather like Atom.

Me too, although I'm trying to switch from Sublime to Atom since Sublime isn't FOSS and always bugs me about the license

there is no "best" alternative, it all depends on personal tastes.

+1

Sublime - native application. Atom - Chromium Web browser.
