Willkommen im Club unklar.

We have free doughnuts and coffee... you didn't bring any Apfelstrudel did you?

A smile, a cuppa coffee and a doughnut beat language barriers any day!
Sit, relax, enjoy .. this is your Club now too.

HEY g33zr - someone you can talk to!

g33zr · 2016-01-12 15:57:19

Willkommen unklar.

Es ist ja egal hier, ob man Englisch gut oder schlecht spricht. Im Laufe der Zeit vergisst man sowie so die eigene Sprache...in meinem Fall Englisch, da ich schon ein wenig verkalkt bin.

Translation: Welcome unklar. It doesn't matter here whether one speaks English well or badly. Over time, one forgets one's own language...in my case, English, since I'm already a little senile.

Sector11 · 2016-01-12 16:18:58

HEY g33zr - couldn't have said it better myself.

Isn't senile an old age language? Like piglatin for kids?

Holding a coffee cup upside down while frowning means the same anywhere.

All I hear at home is: "The kitchen is that way!" I don't get no respect!

^ Do you really feel your age? Its only 60+

unklar · 2016-01-13 12:05:28

Danke Jungs für die freundliche Begrüßung!

Ich hatte schon im mageia-Forum geschrieben: (Im Zusammenhang mit Conky) Egal von welcher Distribution der User kommt, im Bunsenlab-Forum wird er nicht abgewiesen!
Das ist zweifellos ein Verdienst der "Jungen Wilden"

Thanks guys for the friendly welcome!

I had already written in Mageia Forum: (In connection with Conky) Whichever distribution of users is, in Bunsenlab forum he will not be rejected!
This is certainly a credit to the "Jungen Wilden" {)

Ja und, "Apfelstrudel" ist nicht mein Fall.
Ich trinke lieber ein Bier. ]:D ]:D

Have a nice day!

@Sector11: unklar doesn'trcare much for Apfelstrudel and would rather drink a beer.

@ unklar: Warum verwendest Du den Name "unklar"? Bist Du wirklich unklar oder meinst Du das ironisch? 8)

Ich bin wirklich unklar...

Ernsthaft,
im Sommer 2009 hatte ich "wieder einmal" von WINDOWS die Nase gestrichen voll. Ich nahm mir vor, dieses OS von meinem Rechner zu entfernen.

Im Zeitschiftenhandel bekam ich den "Linux-User" in die Hand. Darin befanden
sich ein paar Live-CD's.
Am besten gefiel mir mandriva.

Alles, wirklich alles, war mir unklar!
Als ich mich im Forum bei mandrivauser.de anmeldete, wollte man einen Nicknamen... und, ich nahm diesen.

So ist das entstanden.

PS: Deiner ist auch "gewöhnungsbedürftig" ]:D

g33zr · 2016-01-13 15:09:55

^LOL. For those who don't read German, I asked unklar why he uses the name unklar, which means "unclear" in English.

He responded that he's really unclear and went on to describe how in 2009 once again became fed up with Windows and decided to remove the OS from his PC. He found a copy of Linux-User, with a couple of live CDs, at a newstand. He liked Mandriva best and...

Everything, really everything, was unclear for him. When he signed up for German Mandriva forum, he needed a user/nickname and he picked unklar. That's how it happened.

He thinks my nickname also "needs getting used to." ]:D

What?!

ratcheer · 2016-02-07 13:17:23

How old am I?

I am so old, I have to oil my feet every morning.

Sector11 · 2016-02-07 14:20:36

@g33zr - so it's clear the unklar is not clear. Maybe we should nickname him: Undurchsichtig ]:D

@ratcheer :lol: :lol: :lol: ratcheer in the morning

So is that: Corn, Olive or Sunflower?

EDIT: I can see it now: Ye Ole Oil Can

@Sector11 - Well, I don't actually use liquid oil. On alternating days, I use shea "body butter" and a lotion based on hemp oil (which I'm sure doesn't contain THC, because I just get it at regular stores).

I really like the hemp-based lotion. I had a lesion on my wrist from removing a "pre-cancerous" spot. The lesion had persisted for months. After I started using this lotion, the lesion almost completely disappeared in a couple of months. Maybe that would have happened anyway, but I don't think so.

Getting old is a PITA.

@ ratcheer :8 I am so sorry. :8 I thought it was a joke.

We can't get that here, but I'm sure there are equivalents.

My wife has me using this: Bagovit A Classic
Not so bad, doesn't smell perfumery like the other creams she uses. I've always had a "general purpose" hand cream in the bathroom as my skin has a tendency to be really dry and cream seemed to stop the 'hangnail' problem that I use to pick at an bleed for weeks.

Hypoallergenic. A rich and creamy, highly nourishing texture that acts in depth, allowing natural cell regeneration.
The nutritional properties of Vitamin A makes it ideal for use in prone to stretch marks as pregnancy and adolescence periods.
It helps to improve the appearance of damaged skin, such scars after healing of burns and sore nipples.
Recommendations for use: Apply daily as many times as necessary to the desired area, with gentle massage to facilitate penetration and absorption.

I've told her there is no fear of me getting pregnant and to forget adolescence periods!

What's the world coming to!

Getting old may be a PITA but it's better than the other option.

What, you mean like Benjamin Button?

Sector11 · 2016-02-08 17:05:00

My first reaction: Like who?
My Second reaction: Startpage: Benjamin Button

Interesting ... but now not quite. Never saw that.

Think driving Miss Daisy only this would be "Pushing Miss Daisy's daises up!

No problem at all.

But, see, we both have the same problem (very dry skin). I have been this way most of my life (a dermatologist once told me, "You have the driest skin I have ever seen."), but it has only been the last few years that it has given me so much trouble with my feet. Sometimes, I wake up in the middle of the night and have to re-apply lotion.

Sector11 · 2016-02-09 14:09:39

OUCH! I'm not that bad. Mind you I've noticed that I'm using the B-A cream more than I use to. Must be a subconscious thing. The creams I use to use were just some cheap general purpose hand cream, this is much better.

pvsage · 2016-02-09 16:45:34

I hope you guys don't mind a relatively young buck chiming in here, but I've had similarly troublesome skin since childhood and have been oiling my "joint" (and just about everything else) since I was a teen; fortunately, I chanced across a dermatologist who had experience treating ichthyosis vulgaris.

g33zr · 2016-02-09 17:11:50

You guys are depressing me. What's next? Are we going to compare prostate or heart problems? Hey, we're still upright and breathing! Woohoo!

Sector11 · 2016-02-09 18:57:00

g33zr you has a point ... anyday above ground is a good day.

BTW --> g33zr - take the purple pill

Feel for you pvsage, not something I'd wish on anyone.

g33zr · 2016-02-10 13:56:39

The purple pill?! That would turn me into a paranoid schizophrenic, trapped in and out of the matrix. No, it's got to be one or the other. Today is a red-pill day.... ]:D
