pleia2 | ;) | 00:00 |
* _marx_ spousal unit says [forcefully] "move away from the computer" | 00:01 | |
doctormo | I don't see quit messages, what did it say? | 00:25 |
_marx_ | "cd ~/real-life" | 00:26 |
doctormo | heh | 00:28 |
cprofitt | pleia2: what is a 'driver' in reference to an Ubuntu project? | 01:08 |
pleia2 | cprofitt: context? | 01:09 |
pleia2 | oh, user days | 01:10 |
pleia2 | "DRIVER: If someone is coordinating this objective and helping those involved to deliver on their actions, list that person here (optional)." | 01:10 |
cprofitt | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDaysTeam | 01:10 |
cprofitt | got it... | 01:10 |
cprofitt | had not heard that term listed afore | 01:10 |
cprofitt | I added some suggested classes... | 01:10 |
pleia2 | all based on: http://www.jonobacon.org/2009/11/10/creating-a-roadmap-for-more-successful-teams/ | 01:10 |
cprofitt | when will the dates be set? | 01:11 |
pleia2 | we used this roadmap format for a whole bunch of UDS things | 01:11 |
cprofitt | Jono is a smart man... | 01:11 |
pleia2 | hopefully at the BT meeting on Tuesday | 01:11 |
pleia2 | Jan 23rd is looking to be the target though | 01:11 |
cprofitt | I agreed with most of what he said... documenting the commitments is one of the areas we still need to work on and improve | 01:11 |
cprofitt | I bookmarked that page when it first passed me on the twitterverse | 01:12 |
cprofitt | 23rd... | 01:12 |
cprofitt | ooh... a Saturday... | 01:12 |
pleia2 | yeah :) | 01:13 |
cprofitt | I might be able to do a class -- just have to see how our tz setup goes | 01:13 |
pleia2 | I was thinking 12-22 UTC | 01:13 |
cprofitt | I am in need of a desktop bookshelf -- where does one find those? | 01:13 |
cprofitt | 22 UTC = 5pm EST | 01:13 |
pleia2 | desktop bookshelf? | 01:13 |
cprofitt | yeah... a bookshelf that sets on your desk... | 01:14 |
cprofitt | not sure what to call them.. | 01:14 |
pleia2 | ah | 01:14 |
cprofitt | I have one and it is too small | 01:14 |
* pleia2 calls it a "pile" :) | 01:14 | |
cprofitt | I have 10+ books I need for reference that do not fit in my current setup | 01:14 |
_marx_ | cprofitt: i'm a carpenter, where are you, perhaps I could make you one | 01:15 |
* _marx_ knows it's shocking, carpenter using ubuntu, but true | 01:17 | |
cprofitt | pleia2: it looks like this -- http://i45.tinypic.com/2utncwi.jpg | 01:18 |
doctormo | heey cprofitt | 01:19 |
cprofitt | hey doctormo | 01:19 |
cprofitt | I am trying to re-org my space | 01:19 |
cprofitt | I have too many books... | 01:20 |
pleia2 | cprofitt: ah, nice... yeah | 01:20 |
_marx_ | hm, yep way too small | 01:20 |
cprofitt | _marx_: got any suggestions? | 01:21 |
_marx_ | well what's below what you have in that photo? | 01:22 |
cprofitt | a wall... then my desk and a filing cabinet | 01:22 |
_marx_ | ok | 01:22 |
_marx_ | hm | 01:22 |
cprofitt | I have another bookshelf -- but it is out of reach | 01:22 |
cprofitt | I keep my non-current books there | 01:23 |
_marx_ | and you don't have a copy of "Running Linux" | 01:23 |
* _marx_ measures one he built last year... | 01:23 | |
cprofitt | ... build... | 01:24 |
cprofitt | I could do that... | 01:24 |
cprofitt | if I could find another one of those I would be good too... but I can't find anything like it anymore | 01:24 |
_marx_ | ah okay | 01:24 |
cprofitt | I have but one corner of my house... kids and wife have the remainder... so I have to organize effectively | 01:26 |
_marx_ | k: 12 3/4" deep x 2' wide x 31" tall: 3 shelves with the upper one spaced to just hold cd's | 01:28 |
cprofitt | ooh... that would be nice... I could skip the top shelf or make it for something else... all my CDs are .flac now | 01:29 |
_marx_ | or go a little taller | 01:29 |
cprofitt | can not go too tall... the Tick needs to be seen | 01:29 |
_marx_ | i used good grade 3/4 plywood, actually leftover stain grade | 01:30 |
cprofitt | nice | 01:31 |
_marx_ | sitting on the floor? not on top of a desk? | 01:32 |
cprofitt | sigh -- I am throwing out memory... | 01:35 |
cprofitt | ooh... keep this though... PC4200 512MB laptop ram | 01:35 |
* _marx_ just recycled sparc5 and sparc20 hardware | 01:36 | |
_marx_ | 20" monitor weighed close to 50 pounds | 01:38 |
cprofitt | ooh... nice. | 01:40 |
cprofitt | I always wanted a sparc | 01:40 |
_marx_ | ah these were ancient dude, good learning machines 7-8 year ago but _very old now | 01:41 |
cprofitt | true... but you had them | 01:41 |
cprofitt | that is what counted | 01:42 |
_marx_ | debian worked best on them :-) | 01:42 |
_marx_ | ubuntu wasn't around back then | 01:43 |
pleia2 | I have an ultra10 as my firewall <3 | 01:56 |
_marx_ | ultra10 firewall! cool use of old hardware | 02:47 |
pleia2 | _marx_: yeah, it's running Debian and I tossed a couple pci nics in it | 02:48 |
pleia2 | runs like a tank :) | 02:48 |
_marx_ | sun hardware in my experience has been just rock solid well designed; the clips that held the hd's in the old pizza box sparcs beat anything out there in the mid '90's | 03:01 |
nigel_nb | doctormo: I'm finally back and kicking ;) | 03:46 |
nigel_nb | will work on the bzr module today | 03:46 |
doctormo | Ah damn I missed nigel | 05:06 |
doctormo | pleia2: Hey are you still up? | 06:51 |
