[00:24]  * Telendrith looks around with puppy eyes
[02:13] <jledbetter> jtatum, zoo? hells yeah
[02:18] <pleia2> they have lots of penguins :)
[02:19]  * jledbetter is more a wolf person m'self ;)
[02:19] <pleia2> I don't think they have wolves
[02:20] <pleia2> they have a 40 year old grey seal
[02:22] <jledbetter> How are the enclosures? Good and roomy?
[02:23] <pleia2> yeah, no elephants though since they couldn't expand their exhibit to make it healthy
[02:23] <pleia2> have to go to oakland to see elephants
[02:23] <jledbetter> Great :)
[02:26] <jtatum> jledbetter is coming up for christmas so i think we'll definitely go to the zoo :)
[02:27] <pleia2> oh good! let me know your plans, maybe we all go together (I think I even have a couple free admission passes)

[05:51] <Ademan> is anyone from the bay area planning on going to the davis lug meeting on the 20th?
[05:56] <phildini> MarkDude, you here?
[05:58] <MarkDude> Hey phildini
[05:58] <MarkDude> Ademan, Im going next year
[05:59] <phildini> to answer your question, not-woot are those people on my twitter who are not from the Woot! online shopping channels.
[05:59] <phildini> I really should reorganize things. I haven't been maintaining my twitter, reall.
[05:59] <phildini> *really.
[06:00] <MarkDude> Ok - so I should not take it as a slight :) ?
[06:00] <jtatum> most of my shirts are from woot :)
[06:01] <phildini> not meant to be a slight in the slightest.
[06:01] <MarkDude> Cool deall
[18:35] <iheartubuntu> we are watching the Google announcement at http://www.youtube.com/googlechrome   ?
[18:42] <pleia2> have work, I'll wait for the articles :)
[18:43] <akk> What are they announcing?
[18:44] <iheartubuntu> about google chrome
[18:44] <iheartubuntu> and supposed to release Google OS today as well
[18:45] <iheartubuntu> funny they are using Win7 for the broadcast examples of chrome instead of using their new OS :)
[19:10] <jdeslip> chrome web store looks great.  Finally a kindle app that will work on Linux
[19:13] <iheartubuntu> coming later today: http://chrome.google.com/webstore
[19:13] <iheartubuntu> they are just starting to talk about Chrome OS now
[19:18] <iheartubuntu> instant boot, instant setup
[19:18] <iheartubuntu> setting up your Google OS took less than 60 seconds. (although he didnt read the google EULA which was proably 3 hours worth!)
[19:19] <iheartubuntu> i didnt even see 5 second boot. it was instant
[19:21] <pleia2> I was pretty surprised to see how fast the zareason laptop I'm reviewing booted maverick (my desktop is also ubuntu, but I have loads of junk installed that needs to load up)
[19:21] <iheartubuntu> "you can uninstall an app on one machine, and instantly it will update your other computers..... and you see when you uninstall it can take like 15-20 seconds"
[19:21] <iheartubuntu> so its not instant.. its 15-20 seconds. duh.
[19:22] <iheartubuntu> pleia2 - uninstalling clamAV from my computer really speeded up boot time
[19:22] <pleia2> I don't care much about boot time on my desktop, I'd just never seen the fast bootup of a pristine install before :)
[19:23] <pleia2> was impressive
[19:23] <iheartubuntu> * product placement for google wifi on certain airlines * :)
[19:26] <iheartubuntu> they just showed offline apps. but sounds like all apps will have to be bought or downloaded from google web store. that would be a shame with so many great linux apps out there
[19:28] <iheartubuntu> verizon mentioned now
[19:28] <iheartubuntu> 100mb free data every month
[19:28] <iheartubuntu> plans start at $9.99
[19:28] <iheartubuntu> no contracts
[19:29] <iheartubuntu> this is stupid. i feel like im watching a google wrapped version of an apple showcase
[19:29] <pleia2> well, apple showcases are successful
[19:29] <jdeslip> I am pretty impressed actually
[19:29] <iheartubuntu> dropbox is free at 2GB
[19:29] <jdeslip> no contradict at all - can buy data in chunks and day passes
[19:30] <jdeslip> I think this is the perfect device for my dad e.g.
[19:30] <iheartubuntu> 100mb a month is NOTHING
[19:30] <jdeslip> super simple and secure and always available for connectivity
[19:30] <iheartubuntu> a few games and youre paying a monthly fee
[19:30] <iheartubuntu> yah, its smart, but....
[19:30] <jdeslip> use wifi
[19:31] <jdeslip> the 100 MB free is just for 3G
[19:31] <jdeslip> then you can par for day passes etc..
[19:31] <iheartubuntu> verizons wireless broadband prices are ridiculous as is
[19:32] <jdeslip> true, but not having contracts makes me much more comfortable with
[19:32] <jdeslip> it
[19:32]  * iheartubuntu securely stays with ubuntu after seeing this google feed
[19:32] <jdeslip> Wish my ubuntu netbook had the same deal with verizon.  I wouldn't turn down 100 MB free 3G access.
[19:33] <jdeslip> Why is it an either or?
[19:33] <iheartubuntu> 100mb will go quick in a day or two if you are traveling
[19:33] <iheartubuntu> heck... in one day
[19:33] <jdeslip> I still wouldn't turn it down ;)
[19:34] <jdeslip> Anyway, I think Ubuntu (and linux in general) is going to get a lot better because of Chrome-OS. Since the webapps are available in chrome on Ubuntu (and other browsers for that matter)
[19:35] <jdeslip> I would say I use my phone to tether to my laptop about 100 MB a month now.  I.e. only for emergencies or checking mail at the airport etc...
[19:35] <pleia2> when I was in Dublin I had a limit of 50M/day so I actually had to track my usage using the 3g watchdog app
[19:36] <pleia2> turns out I *maybe* use 20M/day, I hit 40M the day I went to the zoo and uploaded photos to flickr for twitter
[19:37]  * iheartubuntu checks his old wired western electric 500 phone and wonders what a cellphone is
[19:38]  * pleia2 hasn't had a land line since 2005
[19:40] <iheartubuntu> interesting showing excel running as an app
[19:40] <iheartubuntu> in "citrix reveiver"
[19:45] <iheartubuntu> rolling OS updates, no need to download and install all new OS versions
[19:46] <iheartubuntu> google working with acer and samsung to make various devices
[19:46] <iheartubuntu> all current ubuntu users get free Google OS computers
[19:46] <iheartubuntu> (just kidding)
[19:48] <iheartubuntu> talking about CR-48 google computer right now
[19:48] <iheartubuntu> i wonder if they will be selling this?
[19:49] <iheartubuntu> no hard drive
[19:49] <iheartubuntu> NO CAPSLOCK KEY
[19:57] <iheartubuntu> you can apply for the google os pilot program and if selected receive a computer to test out... http://www.google.com/chromeos/
[19:57] <iheartubuntu> apparently no ISO yet
[20:04] <iheartubuntu> looks like the google OS presentation is almost done. this has been nice filler while waiting for Julian Assange to release his secret password :)
[20:04] <pleia2> lol
[20:04] <iheartubuntu> Q & A now for google
[20:08] <iheartubuntu> odd tidbit: the entire google panel at the q&a are wearing jeans. i wonder if they are in house google jeans? maybe downloadable.
[20:08] <iheartubuntu> sounds like verizon is the only carrier? i missed it
[20:28] <iheartubuntu> Amazons new way to shop... http://www.windowshop.com/
[20:35] <iheartubuntu> google webstore is now ONLINE... https://chrome.google.com/webstore
[21:40] <MarkDude> YokoZar, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Bacon
[21:40] <MarkDude> Jono is no longer listed on the portal
[21:41] <YokoZar> Yeah someone "fixed" my edit of his page too
[21:41]  * MarkDude is helping create the Severed Fifth page now
[21:42]  * MarkDude did not mess with it. I was hoping to show jono tho
[21:42] <MarkDude> I can show him the revert
[23:20] <MarkDude> Star Wars in the terminal?      type that in and watch telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl
[23:21] <MarkDude> telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl
[23:21] <pleia2> I didn't know there were people on the internet who didn't know about that
[23:22] <MarkDude> Um, you know I have made  career of NOT using the command line?
[23:22] <pleia2> hehe
[23:22] <pleia2> the friend I got Blinker (my car in PA) from wrote part of the interface <3
[23:22]  * MarkDude is a recruiter
[23:22] <MarkDude> of FOSS, and new users- tht usually means avoiding CLI
[23:23] <pleia2> (Mike Edwards in the intro credits)
[23:23] <MarkDude> Hell, I was amazed at the talking cow
[23:23]  * MarkDude amuses easily
[23:23] <MarkDude> Hmm, small world
