| doctormo | paultag: wifi on the bus, if I were on a dataplan I wouldn't have to share with the youtube yokels. | 00:09 |
|---|---|---|
| paultag | doctormo: it can't be worse then 3G | 00:11 |
| * pleia2 chuckles at "youtube yokels" | 00:11 | |
| doctormo | paultag: Never had it so can't tell, it waivers between 16 and 3kbs though. | 00:11 |
| paultag | doctormo: still doing better then dialup over cell | 00:12 |
| pleia2 | there is a guy who comes to one of the lugs around here and doesn't have internet at home, he: 1) complains that all public wifi is slow 2) admits to torrenting the whole time he's on public wifi because he doesn't have a tv either | 00:12 |
| * pleia2 headdesk | 00:12 | |
| paultag | doh!!! | 00:12 |
| paultag | pleia2: PA or out west? | 00:12 |
| pleia2 | out west | 00:12 |
| pleia2 | you know berkeley people, buncha nutters :) | 00:12 |
| paultag | aye aye | 00:13 |
| paultag | doctormo: fight back! Listen to youtube yourself! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHBoOb2WafM | 00:16 |
| paultag | doctormo: more! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0 | 00:17 |
| paultag | first one is awesome, second is great too | 00:20 |
| doctormo | pleia2: Your friend sounds like he should set of a media anarchist collective. | 01:05 |
| doctormo | paultag: Arrived, just in case I disappear before I arrive tomorrow :-) | 03:11 |
| paultag | doctormo: yuppers :) | 03:12 |
| paultag | doctormo: say hi to my buddies, will ya? | 03:12 |
| doctormo | paultag, czajkowski: I've hacked out a basic blog entry linker for the loco website while I was on the bus. The idea is to give a space for people who run events to do one of two things. Link to the blog or wiki page where their event's report is, or write a short amount in the entry it's self. | 03:13 |
| paultag | doctormo: is this a long-winded plot to not do team reports? | 03:14 |
| doctormo | It's not pushed or committed yet, I'm playing with how to make it smooth to use and easy to tie to what ever people are using. I guess it would appear sort of like a simple planet but tied to event entries in the loco directory. | 03:14 |
| paultag | doctormo: I think it's a good idea, but it's duplicate work, the team reports do that :/ | 03:15 |
| doctormo | paultag: How can it be? I'm not my loco's contact any more. Actually it's what I said I would do. | 03:15 |
| paultag | doctormo: and the team reports are Ubuntu std, so we can't change on the LoCo level, we'd have to change on the Ubuntu community level | 03:15 |
| paultag | doctormo: Aye, I know | 03:15 |
| paultag | doctormo: just beware spending time on something that will be outside the workflow :( | 03:16 |
| doctormo | Well we can discuss the ins and outs of the politics if you want. I was thinking more of technical thought right now. | 03:16 |
| pleia2 | paultag: people really do hate writing team reports :\ | 03:16 |
| pleia2 | nhandler has been the champion of it for quite some time, it's gotten better but as soon as you stop nudging people they stop doing it | 03:17 |
| paultag | pleia2: yeah I know | 03:17 |
| paultag | pleia2: I am baddddd-d at doing them | 03:17 |
| pleia2 | I think any solution to facilitate them is worth trying | 03:17 |
| paultag | mm | 03:18 |
| doctormo | paultag, czajkowski: what is currently the data flow for reports? | 03:22 |
| paultag | doctormo: it's outlined on the wiki | 03:22 |
| doctormo | I mean all of it, from loco contact to mark's report book. you seemed to be saying that we couldn't change any part of it because it's a chain of things. | 03:23 |
| paultag | doctormo: check the wiki, or ask nhandler. I don't know the setup well | 03:23 |
| paultag | and that's why it's nice :) | 03:23 |
| doctormo | paultag: what is? | 03:23 |
| paultag | what is what? | 03:24 |
| paultag | my last sentince? the object of my last sentince, the setup, witch is a reference to my last sentince about reports | 03:24 |
| paultag | which * | 03:24 |
| paultag | darn, I need sleep | 03:25 |
| * nigelb yawns | 03:42 | |
| nigelb | pleia2: people are lazy or forget about team reports | 03:42 |
| nigelb | duanedesign: thanks. It was risky and I just gave it a shot | 03:42 |
| nigelb | doctormo: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TeamReports | 03:43 |
| paultag | Anyone know autotools? | 03:44 |
| paultag | I've got quite frustrated with it. Considered writting my own build system out of spite | 03:44 |
| nigelb | lol @ 'out of spite' | 03:45 |
| doctormo | paultag: The best thing to do is have a week of sleep with the autotools manual under your pillow. | 03:45 |
| paultag | doctormo: learning by osmosis I guess | 03:45 |
| duanedesign | nigelb: heh, i know that feeling. Glad it turned out well | 03:56 |
| duanedesign | nigelb: we have combined the OKlahoma LoCo and Tulsa LUG monthly meetings. There started to be months were no one showed up. The Tulsa lUG has a solid group that shows up every month so it works out nice. | 03:58 |
| paultag | duanedesign: I miss Old_Solder | 03:58 |
| duanedesign | paultag: heh, i am suprised he has not resurfaced | 03:59 |
| paultag | duanedesign: I called his house and got in touch with him | 03:59 |
| duanedesign | i remember that | 03:59 |
| paultag | duanedesign: this was for the UBT Reunion nhandler and I had planned | 03:59 |
| paultag | duanedesign: Yeah, I'm bummed. I even had CK willing to send him a new computer | 04:00 |
| paultag | duanedesign: because his broked | 04:00 |
| duanedesign | paultag: i cant imagine contributing as much as he did and not ever wanting to get involved again when things got better | 04:00 |
| paultag | +1 duanedesign. I think it was a planned exit | 04:00 |
| paultag | duanedesign: I don't think he expected my call. It's OK, live and let live, but I think he is trying to stay out | 04:01 |
| duanedesign | paultag: yeah, i am sure he has his reasons | 04:06 |
| paultag | duanedesign: Aye. Best not pry. | 04:07 |
| duanedesign | paultag: no excuses! only one way out of the community! Blood in blood out! :D | 04:08 |
| paultag | duanedesign: seeing as how there is a gang that calls them self the locos, we should be careful with that | 04:10 |
| paultag | duanedesign: they are big in OK too IIRC | 04:10 |
| nigelb | lol | 04:10 |
| duanedesign | haha. | 04:12 |
| Pendulum | I'm at a wedding this weekend and 2 different people have come into my hotel room and gone "you have Tux!" and then I've had to pry them away from my Tux | 04:21 |
| nigelb | haha | 04:22 |
| Pendulum | yeah | 04:23 |
| Pendulum | I thought it was going to get more love than i did, but then I caught the bouquet which made my evening far more amusing than planned | 04:24 |
| nigelb | whooo! | 04:24 |

| nigelb | lol @ KDE in hate | 14:37 |
| nigelb | also "LP bug watch for love/hate board is missing" | 14:38 |
| sense | yeah :) | 14:38 |
| sense | We need to add a way to watch a bug's status on the Hate/Love Wall in Launchpad. | 14:39 |
| sense | akgraner: What was the link to the "Ubuntu News Team is looking for you!" thing? | 14:52 |
| sense | I would like to mail it to someone who helped with 'content creation' on the website during GUADEC, I hope he might be interested. | 14:53 |
| nigelb | sense: http://akgraner.com/?p=627 | 14:54 |
| sense | nigelb: thanks! | 14:54 |
| doctormo | Morning paultag, feeling better? | 15:42 |
| paultag | doctormo: just tired | 15:42 |
| paultag | doctormo: have not been able to sleep lately | 15:42 |
| doctormo | paultag: The heat? I didn't get a tremendous amount of sleep last night either. | 15:43 |
| paultag | Aye | 15:43 |
| paultag | doctormo: spending my morning on latfh.com | 15:43 |
| doctormo | spent the morning talking to some debian guys and jcastro | 15:44 |
| paultag | yup | 15:44 |
| akgraner | Good Morning :-) | 17:14 |
| akgraner | afternoon or whatever time of day it is where you all may be :-) | 17:14 |
| nigelb | Night :D | 17:19 |
| AlanBell | afternoon akgraner | 17:20 |
| akgraner | hey! working Issue 204 of UWN this one is fun! :-) | 17:21 |
| akgraner | nigelb, have you pulled any LoCo news from this week? | 17:21 |
| akgraner | nigelb, sorry I should have asked in -news | 17:22 |
| akgraner | :-/ | 17:22 |
| nigelb | akgraner: I made news. I'll help pull it now ;) | 17:24 |
| akgraner | nigelb, see pm :-) | 17:25 |
| nhandler | Anyone from the Community Council working on a Team Report for July? | 17:55 |
| nhandler | Or the Technical Board? | 17:56 |
| pleia2 | much of what the CC does is private dispute resolution and answering questions from the community, it'll be pretty rare for us to have something to report | 18:16 |
| nhandler | pleia2: True, but they do hold meetings (when enough people show up). Even a "Held regular monthly meeting on XXX-XX-XX: No items to discuss" would be nice. | 18:17 |
| pleia2 | perhaps, I'll talk to other CC folks about it for next month | 18:17 |
| nhandler | Thanks pleia2 | 18:18 |
| akgraner | pleia2, thanks! | 18:30 |
| doctormo | paultag: Another quiet day | 21:56 |
| paultag | Sure is | 21:56 |
| paultag | I'm fixing my netbook... again. | 21:56 |
| paultag | Decided to try Arch | 21:59 |
| paultag | ditched it. pacman has some odd syntax. Trying Mint now | 21:59 |
| paultag | I also have a cool new tactic. I'm keeping an SD card flashed with an OS image and leaving it in | 22:02 |
| paultag | so if I need to do anything I can just F9 boot off SD | 22:02 |
| paultag | ditching mint. Grrr. | 22:10 |
| paultag | same kernel issue as Ubuntu | 22:11 |
| doctormo | paultag: That's not a surprise though, it's exactly the same kernel. | 22:21 |
| paultag | doctormo: they have a lot of diversions, so I thought the kernel would be modified as well | 22:29 |
| paultag | I forgot about the apt "Yes, do as I say!" | 22:44 |
