| 00:37.34 | romanovic | 10 min, 30% done with Windows updates. I hope the other 70% doesn't continue at this rate |

| 01:06.59 | romanovic | it's amazing how one week's worth of windows updates takes longer to install than formatting/installing linux and booting up for the first time would take |
| 01:10.47 | aeryndunham | windows updates do take forever |
| 01:10.55 | aeryndunham | is so sad her linux partition is no more |
| 01:14.25 | romanovic | :( |
| 01:15.43 | aeryndunham | oh well |
| 01:15.48 | aeryndunham | no room, really |
| 01:15.57 | aeryndunham | I can still set up a nice virtual machine |
| 01:17.18 | romanovic | yeah. linux in a VM can do anything non-resource intensive that a bare metal installation can do |
| 01:17.55 | aeryndunham | and that way I can set up a few new distros maybe and then be sure what I want to try to install for real |
| 01:18.45 | aeryndunham | i'm still overwhelmed by the amount of distros |
| 01:18.45 | romanovic | soon you will spend more time in the vm than outside. then comes a day when there is no reason not to make linux your primary OS and get rid of $otherOS |
| 01:19.34 | aeryndunham | I really do like macOS, though. and all my games are here. |
| 01:20.50 | romanovic | yeah, games are one thing that will probably never enjoy the same support. but they're getting better. |
| 01:21.26 | aeryndunham | They are |
| 01:21.28 | romanovic | I play my Blizzard games in Wine on debian, they run pretty flawlessly. I bought Diablo III and have never played it on an OS that it supports. |
| 01:21.47 | aeryndunham | I'll probably always want to dual boot, but new macbooks can't run Linux (yet) so I'd be in a bit of a pickle |
| 01:21.56 | aeryndunham | but for now VirtualBox is going to have to cut it |
| 01:22.09 | aeryndunham | Unless VMWare is really much better? Because I could get that. |
| 01:23.13 | romanovic | would you consider non-mac hardware with linux, and keep mac os around in VM only? rather than the other way around? |
| 01:23.52 | romanovic | I've gone that route for development purposes. Doesn't much help with gaming, I guess. |
| 01:25.33 | aeryndunham | not sure |
| 01:26.53 | aeryndunham | cheerleads her large download |
| 01:32.02 | aeryndunham | woooo over halfway there |

| 02:45.34 | aeryndunham | welp, they've changed everything about my spec since I last played WoW; dunno how to play anymore |
| 03:36.34 | romanovic | should I be worried if my 3 yr old daughter is drawing faces with big creepy eyes on her sketch toy, and says, "everybody is crying"? |
| 03:53.03 | romanovic | she keeps erasing and starting over. "everybody is crying everybody is crying" |
| 03:53.27 | romanovic | "daddy, draw a smiley face... that is crying" |
| 04:03.05 | aeryndunham | lol |
| 04:03.09 | aeryndunham | I'd say it's fine |
| 04:03.11 | aeryndunham | kids are weird |
| 05:04.03 | TodPunk | I'm told Provo is where the future is. |
| 05:04.15 | TodPunk | Where is AJ, shouldn't he be in here? |
| 05:04.36 | jholtom | I apologise for my language now |
| 05:04.41 | jholtom | But fuck Provo |
| 05:04.48 | TodPunk | really, sincerely |
| 05:05.23 | jholtom | Yes really |
| 05:05.30 | TodPunk | I'm agreeing with you |
| 05:05.35 | TodPunk | I moved from Orem to Lehi for a reason |
| 05:05.56 | jholtom | Oh OK |
| 05:05.59 | jholtom | Yeah... |
| 05:07.27 | TodPunk | I'm going to go out on a limb and say as far as tech is concerned, UofU is beating the crap out of both BYU and UVU |
| 05:08.00 | TodPunk | I'm not saying there isn't talent down there, I'm just saying research wise and feeding more variety of actual tech industry, UofU wins, measurably |
| 05:08.27 | TodPunk | I'm open to someone telling me what's so grand about Novell or something, though. Maybe I missed something? |
| 05:08.35 | jholtom | Hahahahaha novell |
| 05:08.37 | TodPunk | (Whatever it's called now) |
| 05:08.53 | jholtom | Nothing is grand about that dumpster fire |
| 05:09.35 | jholtom | In my field USU actually does better than those schools |
| 05:10.24 | jholtom | In terms of computer science and software engineering, I would tend to agree |
| 05:10.53 | TodPunk | Are you speaking of electrical engineering? |
| 05:11.14 | jholtom | Yeah, specifically RF and space faring applications |
| 05:11.31 | TodPunk | yeah, I can agree with your assertion then |
| 05:14.06 | TodPunk | There's a couple startup related things in Provo. I can't really speak to their efficacy as I try to avoid that, but Izeni/Start Studio is pretty awesome. |
| 05:14.21 | TodPunk | That said, they're only there because the founders live in Spanish/Payson |
| 05:15.21 | jholtom | Yeah, not a software dude, so no idea |
