[00:02] <tonyyarusso> h00k: yeah :(
[00:03] <tonyyarusso> h00k: we should have two more chances, although tonight and tomorrow may be semi-cloudy too.
[00:04] <h00k> I've always wanted to see them
[01:12] <tonyyarusso> h00k: NWS says "PARTLY CLOUDY WITH A 20 PERCENT CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
[01:12] <tonyyarusso> THUNDERSTORMS BEFORE 9 PM..THEN CLEARING.
[01:12] <tonyyarusso> down here, which is promising for midnight
[01:13] <tonyyarusso> Same thing Thursday - "PARTLY CLOUDY IN THE EVENING THEN BECOMING
[01:13] <tonyyarusso> MOSTLY CLEAR.
[01:13] <kermit> is there any chance of a second chance at seeing the aurora tonight?
[01:13] <kermit> it was too cloudy last night
[01:14] <tonyyarusso> kermit: Yes - there were multiple flares, so all three nights have nearly equal shots.
[01:15] <kermit> cool
[01:15] <tonyyarusso> Wunderground agrees - 20% cloud cover at 1AM tonight
[01:19] <tonyyarusso> kermit, h00k:  http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/rt_plots/kp_3d.html
[01:19] <tonyyarusso> looks like we're back up to 6 so far tonight
[01:24] <h00k> yay!
[01:24] <h00k> I might have to out to the airport across the road after the Ubuntu Wisconsin meeting
[01:24] <h00k> I wonder if it will be low enough to reach down here
[01:24] <h00k> tonyyarusso: ^
[01:26] <tonyyarusso> dunno, but you have an advantage over me still
[01:53] <h00k> Less light polution, that's for sure
[01:55] <tonyyarusso> and higher latitude
[03:04] <h00k> we're higher, here?
[03:05] <h00k> sure enough.
[03:05] <h00k> Rhinelander is
[03:06] <tonyyarusso> geography fail
[03:09] <h00k> no u
[03:10] <exigraff> owned
[03:11] <tonyyarusso> Rhinelander has 0.344848 of a degree on Shoreview.
[03:13] <tonyyarusso> (Approximately 24 miles)
[03:15] <h00k> tonyyarusso: you're welcome here! I have an excellent view!
[03:16] <tonyyarusso> h00k: of just stars so far, or do you have lights?
[03:17] <h00k> tonyyarusso: I don't know yet, I'm discussing Wubi in #ubuntu-us-wi
[03:17] <h00k> then I'll head out
[03:17] <tonyyarusso> ah
[03:17] <tonyyarusso> You're a four-hour drive away though, so maybe not :P
[03:18] <h00k> Yeah...it's true. Unless you speed!
[03:18] <h00k> you could get here by 1
[03:18] <h00k> I have a futon
[03:20] <tonyyarusso> So, be there by 1, watch the sky for maybe two hours, then be awake, fed, and driving back here for work by 8AM...
[03:22] <h00k> yep. coffee!
[03:22] <exigraff> there are worse ways to spend the evening
[03:43] <h00k> I'm going out now.
[04:48]  * Takyoji wonders if there's a reference which has all the commands of all common Linux package managers listed
[04:55] <Takyoji> Is there anything else other than dpkg and rpm?
[04:58] <tonyyarusso> apt and yum on top of those, yast, portage, stampede, urpmi, zypper, poldek, slackpkg, pacman, smart, equo, conary, and a few others.
[04:59] <tonyyarusso> ^^ Takyoji
[04:59] <Takyoji> but a handful of those are just frontends to apt or yum; correct?
[05:01] <tonyyarusso> nope
[05:02] <Takyoji> I mean
[05:02] <Takyoji> dpkg and rpm
[05:03] <Takyoji> apt being a frontend for dpkg; yum as a frontend for rpm
[05:03] <tonyyarusso> Package file formats:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_package_formats , package management systems:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Package_management_system#Linux_distributions
