[14:48] side note: next year I am going somewhere other than my own home for the holidays [14:48] czajkowski, thanks then :) [14:48] czajkowski: I am [14:48] you free for a quick pm ? [14:48] hello! [14:49] hi theos [14:49] we are having a conference about open-source. i would like to introduce around 500 students to ubuntu.can you please guide me on how to get some ubuntu cds shipped? [14:49] theos: where are you based? [14:50] czajkowski, i am around new delhi, India [14:51] theos: there is a special request link on the shipit site [14:51] although others may be able to give you more info [14:51] but I suspect 500 is lot and may not get processed but you can try, also talking to people in your area in a loco on loco.ubuntu.com may be more helpful as well [14:51] jussi, i know thanks. but i dont think they will take me seriously if i request 500 cds in that form [14:52] theos: there is a open description part for explaining why: https://shipit.ubuntu.com/specialrequest [14:52] theos: 500 is a lot to ship tbh [14:52] theos: isn't it cheaper to get it done locally? [14:52] well the thing is the cd cover/print with "UBUNTU" on it has a different feel [14:53] I'm pretty sure you can get it done locally, the printing bit [14:53] thats the main reason i want the original cds [14:53] theos: and are you getting a pack made for each student? or are they just going to be there for people to take? [14:53] heh [14:53] I mean India's *GOT* to be cheaper than elsewhere [14:53] theos: I think there could be a problem sending that many to india going by past expereince with customs [14:53] jussi, the cds will be distributed. 1 cd per student will be the aim [14:54] theos: I really suggest at minimum completing the special request form. [14:54] czajkowski: I was getting there :) [14:54] theos: There is always issues with customs, but like jussi says, doesn't hurt to try. [14:54] yes i requested there. :D just in case they reject it. i wanted another option [14:54] theos: also, when is this conference? [14:55] or if i could get the printed blank cds. we can burn them [14:55] jussi, its in feb this year [14:55] theos: Delivery of special requests can take from twelve to sixteen weeks. [14:55] ;) [14:55] jussi, cds take 2 weeks to reach me [14:55] theos: which conf is this? [14:56] theos: thats a copy from the ubuntu website [14:56] nigelb, trying to introduce ubuntu to some college students. its new for them [14:56] * jussi notes nigelb is somewhat local [14:56] heh [14:57] Morning all [14:57] intersting thing about the new gym, it's full of army men, and by god are they fit and intimidating ! [14:57] theos: I know folks in Delhi who might be able to help you or at least give suggestions. [14:57] must show no fear on the threadmill! [14:58] not a big conf with celebs and all :D trying to introduce ubuntu to a sect of students who will never get over m$ in life :/ [14:58] *threadmill [14:58] *treadmill [14:59] heh [14:59] theos: the more info you can share, the more people can help you. [14:59] czajkowski: bit of a fail day today? :D [14:59] jussi, hmm i dont know what to tell more :D maybe i can answer some questions if asked [14:59] * jussi huggles czajkowski [14:59] jussi: just in from gym and I've 8 windows of pms from loco teams with issues. nest person that says the lococouncil doesnt help them needs to see my emails :) [15:00] czajkowski: I noted a blogpost on planet that was very positive about you peoples :=) [15:00] czajkowski: all in favor of blaming paultag, say aye [15:00] aye [15:00] oh there was a lot of sarcasim behind that [15:01] yeah and one more thing, cds with old versions of ubuntu will be fine too [15:01] AYE! [15:01] * jussi has about 30 or so 10.04 kubuntu CD's still [15:01] :3 [15:02] jussi: nobody uses Kubuntu :p bar you and darkwingduck [15:02] that reminds me i forgot to do gym today :/ [15:02] AHEM!!! [15:03] jussi: oh shrup you saw the :p [15:03] * jussi huggles poor riddell and scottk [15:03] czajkowski: come on there are 5 of us - also shadeslayer :P [15:03] *G* [15:04] jussi: yes, about 5 people use kUbuntu :p [15:04] :) [15:04] i friend uses kubuntu too [15:04] * jussi mutes nigelb and czajkowski :P [15:05] oh, we're up to 6 now :p [15:05] he cant use internet on it though :/ [15:06] what do they of old versions when newer versions come? [15:07] the cds i mean [15:07] hmm a threadmill, excellent! I have an idea. [15:08] Yay just fixed my first bug on SC bug 632770 [15:08] Launchpad bug 632770 in software-center (Ubuntu) "translator-credits missing in .pot and no button in About menu to show translator (affects: 2) (dups: 1) (heat: 14)" [Undecided,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/632770 [15:08] *treadmill [15:09] great!!

Love the accent! [15:16] thanks for helping :) [15:16] Because sensible countries carry forward their holidays. [15:16] czajkowski: Yes, but could you stand coming to Ubuntu meetings with me ;-) [15:17] doctormo: I've no problem at all with coming to any meeting with you doctormo [15:18] czajkowski: :-) thanks, you get taffy for doing the monthly report. [15:18] you/you'd [15:20] czajkowski: I've been asking ubuntu members about reporting bugs, could you spare 5 mins for me? [15:22] doctormo: I'm just on a call now and then going to cook some food would in an hour or so be ok ? [15:23] sure, just ping me.

[18:03] czajkowski: he's trained well (he's always my uds/sprint roomate) [18:05] jono: I can go early today if you'd like [18:05] jcastro, cool, let's go in 15 or so [18:05] \o/ [18:05] now that daniel isn't here he can't crash skype [18:06] jcastro: *grin* [18:07] jcastro: I have a way of breaking gwibber and him looking rather puzzled, he feckin' rocks [18:08] jcastro, haha [18:28] jcastro, wrapping a mail and then ready [18:30] no worries [18:33] jcastro, all set [18:33] yep [18:34] jono: argh!

[19:04] did it come with a matching music CD? [19:16] jcastro, yeah, was awesome - no I just got the blue ray [19:42] jono: I wanted to say that I appreciated your blog post. [20:50] jono: your dad has such English wit! It's rather hilarious to see the stuff he comes out with! [20:51] czajkowski, yeah he is pretty funny :) [20:51] jono: where did he get you from :p [20:51] czajkowski, lol [20:52] jono: ah see you get my sense of humour and know I jest :) *hugs* [20:52] :) [21:10] czajkowski: When/where did you get to see jono-senior? [21:13] doctormo, he is on twitter/identica [23:21] czajkowski: I can't wait to see your neckbeard! [23:22] :D [23:22] that guy comes out with some doozies [23:22] hehe [23:22] I cant help but laugh [23:23] pleia2: plus I still find the neckbeard thingy rather amusing [23:25] don't think my legs are going to talk to me for days after the gym today. [23:25] :S [23:31] what is a neck beard? [23:32] letmegooglethisforyou http://www.google.ie/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=&q=neck+beard&btnG=Google+Search [23:38] czajkowski, ive never understood why people think going to the gym is any better than doing exercise normally [23:39] i mean, i dont need some silly structured workout to get me all toned [23:39] do people think that? [23:40] pleia2, not sure, thats why i assume people go to gyms :) [23:40] to get all 'toned' :| [23:41] a structured workout is silly for everyone [23:41] exactly [23:41] err, is NOT [23:41] lol, fail [23:41] I can think of 1000 excuses not to ride my bike every day (traffic due to $event, weather, etc) [23:42] but the gym is open every day, I can keep up with it, no excuses [23:42] meh [23:42] pleia2, i do exercise when i feel like it, ive gone for a 10km run in the rain, sun, etc [23:42] certainly I'd prefer it if I could be active enough without a structured regimen, but it doesn't work [23:43] for me [23:43] yeah [23:43] pleia2, but do you feel like the only way you can get/keep fit is to go to the gym? [23:44] I have tried other ways, I don't have the discipline [23:44] I wish I did, I think it's a bit of a failing on my part that I require the structure of a gym [23:44] ah yes [23:45] the trick to keeping fit in my limited experience is to distract your mind from the misery that is exercise [23:45] i guess i am motivated enough that i can do exercise when i want [23:45] that is why I try to do the elliptical trainer three times a week, but I watch netflix on it [23:45] I listen to podcasts and play tetris on my DS [23:45] foss weekly catchup time, woo [23:46] jono, well, something that helps me is that i am a very good runner, i won many events in long distance running when i was at school [23:46] and i really enjoy exercise [23:47] i think part of the fact that people dont like exercise is that it requires effort [23:47] people find putting in effort too hard [23:48] I have to admit that I prefer pizza and building servers to the elliptical :) [23:48] I think the key to doing anything is routine and enjoyment, if you don't enjoy exercise at all then make sure you work 10 miles away and force yourself to cycle. [23:48] doctormo, agreed [23:48] pleia2, hehe [23:48] jono, your a bit put out as your work from home and don't like exercise. I don't think the wii would help in your case. [23:50] doctormo, yeah [23:50] wow my grammar was bad in that. your/you're and your/you [23:51] jono, your not thinking of getting a wii and playing Wii Fit Plus are you? [23:51] that game gets you about as fit as reaching for a beer would [23:52] nisshh, hah, no my wife likes some of that [23:52] but she exercises a lot [23:52] ah ok [23:52] brb [23:52] nisshh: Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof! ;-) [23:53] doctormo, i have proof, my dad hurt his back playing it :) [23:53] doctormo, its like doing very very easy yoga stretches [23:53] thats about it [23:54] doctormo, try Wii Fit Plus for a week, then tell me if you feel any fitter :) [23:54] nisshh: That's funny, I thought anything that exhausted the pants out of your for an hour was a good thing. [23:55] heh, my dad's 51 and he can barely run 1km now [23:55] I've been trying Wii fit for 900 days, on and off. It's keeping me better than sitting down was. [23:55] true [23:56] nisshh: I wonder if your appreciation is shifted because of how good you are and how good your fittness must be. [23:56] doctormo, oh man, im not that fit, trust me :) [23:57] ive just started doing 10km runs after doing no exercise for nearly 2 years [23:57] nisshh: What's your sprint distance? [23:57] you mean how far can i sprint? [23:57] yes [23:57] maybe 300m [23:57] if i was lucky :) [23:59] doctormo, i guess my appreciation is a bit shifted, but remember i am only 19, so its far easier for me to get fit quickly than it is for someone who is 30/40/50
