      I've never had an interview where they gave me lunch.

      Been a long time since I had one when they didn't. I've had them where we go to a restaurant. Some where a catering crew come in for it. Some they eat in the offices. All kinds of things.

      Facebook: Eat on campus to show the campus stuff
      Amazon: Walk to a restaurant in the neighbourhood
      Change: Pizza at a house
      BW: Catered lunch from a personal chef

      Some that I remember. I know one in Cleveland the whole team went to a lunch at a restaurant and did something like pizza. Nothing fancy but a good chance for everyone to talk.

      SAM casually name dropping.....

      OT: Just sorted 3 different printer tickets - one person's PC had changed the port from the IP to WSD...so switched it back and thats sorted...one department have just got a new Printer, so installed that (they replaced a network one with the "new model"...that DOESN'T have a network port, so I installed via USB cable and shared over the network...) and one just being a printer...

              Reinstalled Linux on my Chromebook. Switched to Gnome 3, XFCE was bothering me.

                @johnhooks How does CentOS perform on a Chromebook? Or do you have Ubuntu installed?

                  I just have Ubuntu installed. I used Crouton which makes a chroot. They don't have support for any rpm distros that I could find. This way I can switch between ChromeOS and Linux.

                              So if you want to run Gnome 3 on your Chromebook, you need to do this. If you don't, after you exit the DE in the chroot and try to enter again it's just blank.

                              enter chroot (sudo enter-chroot -n trusty)
                              edit /etc/default/locale file (it didn't exist for me)
                              put the following two lines in this file. Log out and then "startgnome"

                              LANGUAGE=en
                              LANG="en_US.utf8"

                                  Pretty quick. I have the Toshiba Chromebook 2 with a dual core Celeron and 4GB RAM. Not sure how performance would be on ARM and less RAM.

                                      Wish mine would have been that simple. I have an add on usb3 card that refused to work at first, then just started working out of the blue, no change that I could see besides some updates.

                                        @travisdh1 This desktop is loaded with all kinds of odd software. So I deliberately held off on the upgrade until now.

                                        No glitches yet. Maybe I'll get bitten by a few.

                                          In all honesty, it's the smoothest transitions between major releases I can remember, at least on a desktop.

                                            That just happened to me with my led controller arduino that I have in my arcade stick 😄

                                            0_1455737420587_stick.jpg

                                            Stick was made by www.jasenscustoms.com to give credit for it!
                                            Custom art was done by hibachifinal on the SRK forums.

                                            It's the highest quality arcade stick I have ever seen and I go to tournaments for Street Fighter often.
