| 19:56 | <&jeroud> | McMartin: You haven't visited our office recently.~ |
| 19:58 | <&McMartin> | I'm mostly thinking to myself "when is the last time I actually had to care about firmware compatibility for laptops and such" |
| 19:58 | <&jeroud> | Turns out that having dozens of people with their own APs all around you and walls that are transparent to wifi isn't the best plan if you want a decent connection. |
| 19:58 | <&McMartin> | That's different~ |
| 19:58 | <&McMartin> | It's the "mumble mumble firmware" thing |
| 19:58 | <&McMartin> | The last time I had to care about that was like 2003 |
| 19:59 | <&jeroud> | Have you used Ubuntu recently? |
| 20:00 | <&McMartin> | ... this morning? |
| 20:01 | <&McMartin> | I've never been burned by this on Ubuntu |
| 20:02 | <&McMartin> | Technically "or Fedora", but Fedora getting their act together way back when is why I had installed it on the laptop in question anyway. |
| 20:06 | <&jeroud> | My experience with Ubuntu has been that Network Manager is made of fail and wifi is a major pain. |
| 20:08 | <&McMartin> | Right, but is that because your hardware manufacturers claim it is actually illegal to provide you with working drivers |
| 20:09 | <&McMartin> | Which is the last time I had to do the mumble-mumble-firmware thing |
| 20:09 | <&McMartin> | Lots of things can break WiFi |
| 20:09 | <&McMartin> | It's the *specific* case in the comic that felt archaic |
| 20:11 | <&jeroud> | I've had to install different drivers a couple of times in the past few years. |
| 20:11 | <&jeroud> | But my laptops all run a different unix. |
| 20:12 | | * sshine finally gets around to installing XMonad again. |

| 20:13 | <&ToxicFrog> | McMartin: maybe you're drawing the line in the wrong place and it's referring to people who show up with home-made laptop prototypes where the wifi card is an FPGA attached to a coat hanger |
| 20:13 | <&jeroud> | My dad's laptop refused to connect to anything, but showed several networks available. |
| 20:14 | <&McMartin> | ToxicFrog: That's the part where I might be getting old and unsavvy, yes |
| 20:14 | <&jeroud> | Turns out the radio had been disabled with the hardware button and the networks it listed were just the ones it remembered seeing before or something. |
