| pleia2 | akgraner: taking your fridge/blog post and copying to the wiki so we can update it for WPD winners - somehow the date "2008" got in there rather than 2010 for the date of Jono's cast | 00:18 |
|---|---|---|
| pleia2 | "Jono Bacon announced the winners of the 1st Annual Ubuntu Women World Play Day competition via his UStreamTV cast on Friday, May 28th 2008" | 00:18 |
| pleia2 | 2008 wasn't a great year, don't make me go back! | 00:19 |
| maco | im guessing it was from the number 28 :P | 00:19 |
| rww | The wiki also still says "GO SUBMIT YOUR VOTES! for the World Play Day Competition." on the front page, if you're taking edit requests ;P | 00:19 |
| Pendulum | and akgraner's pain medication | 00:19 |
| pleia2 | rww: yep, I'm writing this page so I can update all that :) | 00:19 |
| rww | oh, okay :) | 00:19 |
| akgraner | pleia2, yeah please fix anything that is broken ;-) | 00:20 |
| akgraner | or am I the only one who can fix it | 00:20 |
| pleia2 | I am a fridge admin, I can probably fix the fridge post | 00:20 |
| pleia2 | I'm putting 2010 on the fridge version (just uploading pictures now) | 00:21 |
| akgraner | ok cool | 00:21 |
| akgraner | thank you | 00:21 |
| akgraner | I wonder how that got there | 00:22 |
| akgraner | jeez I better check my blog | 00:22 |
| akgraner | pleia2, well that would explain it | 00:23 |
| czajkowski | http://www.lczajkowski.com/2010/06/01/the-motivational-drivers-and-barriers-of-volunteers-in-open-source-communities/ | 00:23 |
| akgraner | but wonder why no one saw that before now - sigh | 00:23 |
| akgraner | :-P | 00:23 |
| akgraner | bbiab | 00:24 |
| pleia2 | fixed on the fridge, and we now have http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/Events/Competitions/WorldPlayDay/Winners2010 | 00:26 |
| pleia2 | and updated the front page of our wiki | 00:30 |
| pleia2 | elky: do we want to upload all submission to a page on the wiki so it's not forever referencing your site? | 00:37 |
| pleia2 | (dumped in an images/wpd101/ directory off of ubuntu-women.org itself is fine too) | 00:38 |
| pleia2 | er, images/wpd2010 too | 00:38 |
| pleia2 | we're all so great with numbers here | 00:38 |
| elky | elky, eventually yes | 00:40 |
| pleia2 | eventually is an acceptable answer :) | 00:43 |
| elky | also, | 00:44 |
| * elky hugs pleia2 | 00:44 | |
| * pleia2 hugs | 00:44 | |
| pleia2 | :) | 00:44 |
| pleia2 | for all your work this weekend! sorry I wasn't around, darn life getting in the way | 00:44 |
| pleia2 | but my storage units are all primed, they look lovely and much less like concrete dungeons | 00:45 |
| elky | yep, how's the painting going? | 00:45 |
| elky | whee | 00:45 |
| pleia2 | next weekend the real painting! | 00:45 |
| === JanC_ is now known as JanC | ||
| LowResolution | why did Ubunterd 10.04 have to break Intel video support? | 01:44 |
| JanC | Ubuntu didn't break intel video | 01:45 |
| LowResolution | well | 01:46 |
| LowResolution | it worked before | 01:46 |
| LowResolution | what kind of project are you broads running here anyways | 01:47 |
| pleia2 | LowResolution: please don't call us "broads", and the project information is in the /topic | 01:49 |
| LowResolution | boring | 01:51 |
| LowResolution | r u nude | 01:51 |
| MichelleQ | oh yay | 01:55 |
| Pendulum | MichelleQ: can I PM you for a sec? | 02:01 |
| valorie | nude computing, ha | 02:04 |
| Pendulum | apparently he's in quite a few channels | 02:04 |
| Pendulum | and I suspect getting banned one-by-one in them | 02:05 |
| nigelb | lol | 02:05 |
| Pendulum | although in the other one I'm in he then confused us all by calling me a "berd" | 02:06 |
| Pendulum | which as far as I can tell is a region in Armenia | 02:06 |
| valorie | perhaps he meant bard | 02:06 |
| valorie | :-) | 02:06 |
| Pendulum | I suspect he can't spell "bird", but I'll take "bard" :-) | 02:06 |
| valorie | lol | 02:07 |
| Pendulum | oh, no, urban dictionary has proved me wrong. there are several slang meanings, not all negative and not all inappropriate | 02:08 |
| Pendulum | I think I shall assume he was calling me a book nerd | 02:08 |
| * Pendulum nods | 02:08 | |
| MichelleQ | Pendulum: yes maam | 02:10 |
| valorie | berd/bard would be a good mix | 02:11 |
| valorie | a bird berd bard, even more so | 02:11 |
| valorie | lol | 02:11 |
| MichelleQ | lol | 02:11 |
| dholbach | good morning | 07:38 |
| issyl0 | airurando_, AlanBell: no one hangs out in #ubuntu-youth ;) | 09:23 |
| issyl0 | Pendulum: ! | 09:23 |
| issyl0 | Pendulum: ping me when you're around please. | 09:23 |
| issyl0 | :) | 09:24 |
| AlanBell | issyl0: interesting. Do you think that is something that needs fixing? | 09:34 |
| issyl0 | AlanBell: yes. | 09:36 |
| issyl0 | Definitely. | 09:36 |
| AlanBell | ok, is there any background on #ubuntu-youth and what it is for, age ranges, aims etc? | 09:38 |
| elky | Yeah, it definitely does. There's been a few attempts, but it mostly turns in to "oh, you're a teen with your own computer and your parents let you install linux? me too!" followed by twiddling of thumbs, rinse, repeat | 09:38 |
| elky | AlanBell, it appeared after one of the first ubuntu-women open week sessions. I think the one dinda was scheduled for but I held because she got caught in traffic or somthing. | 09:39 |
| AlanBell | found it https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuYouth | 09:39 |
| AlanBell | teen seems a bit old to me | 09:41 |
| elly | I do not see why teens would go there instead of just #ubuntu | 09:41 |
| elky | There was a bit of "but im a kid and nobody takes me seriously when i want to help" in the session, so I suggested they start it and the channel quickly appeared. We tried to pull it in to ubuntuforall but that didn't take off either for lack of input | 09:41 |
| AlanBell | elly: yeah, or loco channels | 09:41 |
| elky | elly, by teens we're talking 13yrolds | 09:41 |
| elky | who really do get treated like silly little kids sometimes | 09:42 |
| elly | hmm | 09:42 |
| elly | okay, I did not have that experience when I was younger and on IRC, but I buy that | 09:42 |
| rww | to a certain extent, if they didn't do stuff that made it obvious they were silly little kids... | 09:42 |
| rww | although I guess the "don't tell people your age" thing has faded somewhat with the advent of facebook :< | 09:42 |
| AlanBell | we don't have much of an issue treating people over the age of about 14 as equals in the loco channels | 09:43 |
| elky | well not just that, mockery when "aww, dad says I have to get off the computer now" | 09:44 |
| Tm_T | we are talking about this? https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-youth | 09:49 |
| elky | yes | 09:49 |
| Tm_T | hmm, cannot remember why I did join the team, but I believe there was a good reason | 09:50 |
| rww | Tm_T: Were you being ironic ;P? | 09:50 |
| Tm_T | rww: no, seriously | 09:50 |
| AlanBell | the forum says it is for under 18 and there is a how old are you thread http://ubuntuforums.org/group.php?do=discuss&group=&discussionid=286 | 09:50 |
| hypatia | when i was 13 i would go on regular IRC servers with MS Comic Chat | 09:51 |
| hypatia | i was a jerk :p | 09:51 |
| rww | hah | 09:51 |
| * elky tries to refrain | 09:51 | |
| rww | I was a webforum moderator in a number of places and messed around on h2g2 :\ | 09:51 |
| elky | issyl0, menza is often on IRC, you could poke him or memoserv him and ask to take over as admin I guess. | 09:53 |
| AlanBell | when I was 14 the web was invented | 09:53 |
| elky | jpds is also listed as admin | 09:54 |
| Tm_T | when I was 14, soviet russia invented you | 09:54 |
| Tm_T | ...ok, that didn't come out as intended | 09:54 |
| AlanBell | Tm_T: made me laugh | 09:54 |
| Tm_T | I often say to little kids who asks my age that I'm 6 and a half years old, as I haven't gone thru pre-school | 09:55 |
| AlanBell | so what I would like is a safe space (yes really, one of them) for my kids to talk to other children of geeks like me and you | 09:56 |
| AlanBell | I really think that the teenagers should be in the loco channels and if there are issues with that then they should be dealt with | 09:56 |
| Tm_T | agreed | 09:57 |
| rww | it would be nice to have a space for them. comes with the problem that kids don't make good ops :\ | 09:57 |
| AlanBell | rww: adult ops | 09:57 |
| Tm_T | rww: kids don't have to be ops themselves | 09:57 |
| AlanBell | which you can't really do in a teenager channel | 09:57 |
| rww | yeah, but that has problems too. kids really like rebelling :( | 09:57 |
| rww | but i may be being pessimistic | 09:57 |
| Tm_T | usually they don't have to rebel if you get them involved on maintaining the order | 09:58 |
| Tm_T | just avoid "olds vs us youngs" | 09:58 |
| rww | true | 09:58 |
| Tm_T | noone say it would be easy but | 09:59 |
| AlanBell | maybe ubuntu-youth is doing OK as it is and what I actually want is ubuntu-younglings | 10:04 |
| rww | make sure to set +b anakin!*@* if you do that | 10:05 |
| AlanBell | important safety tip, thanks! | 10:06 |
| elly | you only want to ban him if he's turned to the dark side, though | 10:06 |
| elly | so anakin!*@dark-side.the-force.net | 10:07 |
| Tm_T | but he's not anakin when he's on dark side | 10:07 |
| AlanBell | issyl0: what do you think? | 10:08 |
| AlanBell | err, not about anakin | 10:08 |
| rww | probably best to just +b *!*@dark-side.the-force.net, tbh | 10:08 |
| rww | they're all a bunch of trolls :( | 10:09 |
| issyl0 | Ah yes. | 10:20 |
| issyl0 | Ok | 10:20 |
| issyl0 | elky: aah | 10:20 |
| * issyl0 spoke to him the other day, though not about #u-y. | 10:20 | |
| czajkowski | issyl0: aloha | 11:06 |
| issyl0 | czajkowski: hi | 11:08 |
| issyl0 | czajkowski: I'm just off actually. | 11:08 |
| * issyl0 wil be back later. | 11:08 | |
| * issyl0 has to tidy up | 11:08 | |
| Pendulum | issyl0: ping | 11:09 |
| AlanBell | ]/window 24 | 15:57 |
| jussi | fail :P | 15:59 |
| AlanBell | yes, I am full of it | 16:00 |
| * nigelb watches the ping pong game between Pendulum and issyl0 going on over the past few days | 16:28 | |
| nigelb | wonder if we should get the popcorn ready :p | 16:29 |
| Pendulum | that reminds me | 16:29 |
| Pendulum | issyl0: did you ever see my pong? | 16:29 |
| issyl0 | MichelleQ: hha | 16:29 |
| issyl0 | Erm. | 16:30 |
| issyl0 | nigelb: haha | 16:30 |
| issyl0 | Pendulum: hi :) | 16:30 |
| Pendulum | or did I miss a response while my net was down? | 16:30 |
| issyl0 | Pendulum: I did not... :/ | 16:30 |
| nigelb | Finally, they connect :p | 16:30 |
| Pendulum | issyl0: take this to PM? | 16:30 |
| issyl0 | Pendulum: yep sure | 16:30 |
| nigelb | issyl0: Great to see you on full circle btw :) | 16:32 |
| issyl0 | nigelb: :D | 16:39 |
| issyl0 | nigelb: thanks | 16:39 |
| issyl0 | It's great to be on there. A sense of achievement. :) | 16:39 |
| nigelb | Yes it is. :) | 16:41 |
| AlanBell | s/sense of// | 17:07 |
| AlanBell | and An rather than A for better grammar | 17:08 |
