akgraner | Hi all! | 04:28 |
---|---|---|
akgraner | Dang it's almost midnight here :-( sorry I wasn't around much today... | 04:29 |
highvoltage | hi akgraner! | 04:57 |
akgraner | highvoltage, hey! | 04:58 |
akgraner | seems like forever since I said hi to ya | 04:58 |
akgraner | are you all settled in and unpacked | 04:58 |
highvoltage | ditto. are you doing ok? | 04:58 |
highvoltage | kind of, I have around 5 boxes that still need to arrive | 04:59 |
highvoltage | I guess they're stuck at customs or something :) | 04:59 |
akgraner | I hope they show up soon | 04:59 |
akgraner | do you remember what is in them | 04:59 |
akgraner | I unpacked last summer and went "Oh wow I forgot about that" | 05:00 |
akgraner | or "oh that is where that went" | 05:00 |
highvoltage | yep. nothing too important at least. stuff like my CD collection, a hi-fi, wii fit and wii accessories, lcd displays, oh and one computer I actually care about. and I think then one more box with a bunch of other misc electronics | 05:00 |
highvoltage | should I start adding some links for the planet section so long? | 05:01 |
highvoltage | yeah I'm sure I'll get some surprises in the boxes at least :) | 05:01 |
akgraner | highvoltage, sure - remember for the Planet - if it's about a LoCo team just drop the link and title into the LoCo section | 05:02 |
highvoltage | ok | 05:03 |
akgraner | if it's about Canonical specific - like landscape or something then it goes into In Other News | 05:03 |
akgraner | the planet is tricky sometimes as those can go in a lot of other places in the news letter | 05:03 |
highvoltage | I noticed last week :) | 05:03 |
akgraner | but don't sweat it b/c I'll move stuff around | 05:03 |
highvoltage | that I've noticed, too! | 05:04 |
akgraner | also it needs to have been posted between August 22 and 28th | 05:04 |
highvoltage | are you going to UDS? | 05:05 |
highvoltage | well, at least we're slowly but surely getting in the habbit of starting earlier | 05:05 |
highvoltage | rome wasn't build in a day! | 05:05 |
highvoltage | I think if you keep running things like you do, it will just be a short matter of time before things run like a smooth running engine | 05:05 |
akgraner | highvoltage, thanks! it's you all who do the work - I just rearrange things | 05:07 |
akgraner | highvoltage, I put in for sponsorship - I hope I get it | 05:07 |
highvoltage | I'll hold thumbs! | 05:08 |
akgraner | :-) thanks | 05:11 |
akgraner | will you be there? | 05:11 |
akgraner | highvoltage, do you know JFo? | 05:13 |
akgraner | he and I are doing a podcast now | 05:14 |
akgraner | the 1st Episode was full of mistakes with sound and stuff | 05:14 |
akgraner | but we had a blast doing it | 05:14 |
highvoltage | akgraner: I saw your blog entry about it, I've been meaning to give it a listen | 05:14 |
akgraner | I would advise listen on your computer as I forgot to equalize the sound | 05:15 |
highvoltage | akgraner: I also found a whole bunch of cool edubuntu videos on youtube this week, I guess I'm going to buy a nice video camera and start a show or somwthing soon | 05:15 |
highvoltage | heh, ok | 05:15 |
akgraner | and in addition I am on the right speaker and JFo is on the left I think | 05:15 |
akgraner | UGH | 05:15 |
akgraner | highvoltage, awesome - video tutorials seem to be very popular these days | 05:16 |
akgraner | I am playing around with a UWN Live Video Cast | 05:16 |
highvoltage | yes, we always have documentation problems, but it seems like more people are willing to make videos on how to do something than actually type out a howto | 05:16 |
akgraner | I've almost got the background drape finished | 05:16 |
highvoltage | previously I thought that videos would be more work, but it seems these days they've become quite easy | 05:17 |
akgraner | seems that way | 05:18 |
akgraner | I still find it not as easy as people make it out to be but not impossible either | 05:18 |
highvoltage | akgraner: I also want to make little short stories promoting free software. if I could make even just one as cool as this one I'd be very, very happy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cbk980jV7Ao | 05:20 |
