mhall119where have you been man?15:05
LaserJockworkin'15:11
LaserJockbeen pretty busy with research15:11
LaserJockmhall119: how you been?15:12
mhall119good good15:13
mhall119going back to school now15:13
mhall119getting ready for 6 crazy months of Qimo and Edubuntu hacking15:14
LaserJockmhall119: what are you studying?16:08
highvoltagehey LaserJock, good to see you here again16:55
mhall119LaserJock: Information Technology, a rather boring subject, but I mostly just wanted a 4-year degree16:57
LaserJockmhall119: makes sense16:59
LaserJockmhall119: I spent my first semester in college as an IT major16:59
mhall119learning about Singularity now, the only interesting class I've got this semester17:00
LaserJockbut then I took General Chemistry and spent the next 11 years dealing with the consequences ;-)17:00
mhall119lol17:00
mhall119Chem2 kicked my butt17:00
mhall119as did Calc217:00
mhall119now I'm just being bored to death by IT Ethics and IT Software Engineering17:01
LaserJockhighvoltage: hey there, I'm having a lazy saturday and thought I'd drop by17:01
LaserJockmhall119: I have the luck/curse of generally never being bored with any class17:02
LaserJockit's good for getting a degree out of the way, not so great for trying to focus17:03
mhall119luck I'd say17:03
LaserJockeven now that I made it through the PhD I find so many other things fascinating17:03
LaserJockif I could afford it I really would be a career student I think :-)17:04
LaserJocklearning is much more fun than doing ;-)17:04
mhall119Guyver: learning is fun, doing tedious work and regurgitating lines from a book, not so fun17:05
LaserJocktrue17:06
LaserJockprobably a lot depends on the teachers17:06
mhall119yeah, I have one teacher I really like, and another I really hate17:06
mhall119the others I'm indifferent to17:06
mhall119now I have an interesting subject (Singularity), but I have to make a bunch of boring power point slides talking about it17:08
mhall119best class in the world would be a group of geeks in a room with a whiteboard and an endless supply of coffee17:09
LaserJockheh17:10
LaserJockmhall119: so how's Qimo going?17:11
mhall119very well, released version 2 back in April, planning on version 3 and integrating it with Edubuntu 11.04 at UDS17:15
