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