Madpilotrobitaille: thanks08:11
mdkeMadpilot, ditto, sorry I didn't notice you were up08:52
Madpilotmdke: no problem, it was actually an easier ride than I expected08:52
Burgundaviajust had an interesting talk at VLUG: Linux in business, real use cases08:52
Burgundaviamost people simply cannot see the big picture08:53
Madpilotthe CC didn't have any business aside from new members, so I guess they were in a good mood :P08:53
MadpilotBurgundavia: that looked like an interesting topic for tonight - too bad my bike is out of action...08:53
Burgundaviathere was a gentoo user who simply counldn't comprehend why first start wizard things are good things08:54
Burgundaviaand why solving the 95% use case is a good thing08:54
Madpilotso you had lots of arguments and had fun? ;)08:55
Burgundaviayep08:55
jsgotangcowow i just listened to the new year ed of lug radio08:57
jsgotangcoedubuntu was categorized as pointless08:58
Burgundaviawhy so?08:58
mdkei've only listened to one edition, but it struck me as pretty rubbish, to be honest08:58
jsgotangcoyeah08:59
Burgundaviathe first season was better08:59
MadpilotLugRadio is fun, but not to be taken too seriously, I think...08:59
mdkei didn't really find it amusing08:59
jsgotangcoi dont find it informative at all08:59
jsgotangcoits mostly ranting08:59
mdkeeven with the english sense of humour ;)08:59
Burgundaviajsgotangco, it is funnier if you understand english humour09:00
jsgotangcowell i do understand a fair bit of english humour09:00
mdkeBurgundavia, i'm not so sure about that09:01
Burgundaviabut they do like to rant 09:01
Burgundaviajsgotangco, any reason why it was called pointless?09:01
jsgotangcooh they just made their own nominations for pointless projects for 200509:02
jsgotangcograb the episode :)09:02
mdkeman i hate this new firefox09:02
Madpilot... the only nomination in their "Funniest moment of 2005" category was... their own program... 09:02

Burgundaviajsgotangco, can't be, it is share price09:15
Madpilotmanipulating your share price gets you in serious sh*t09:15
Madpiloteven if you're doing it for art's sake :D09:15
