[12:28] Hi [12:30] hiya [12:33] Hows monday [12:46] bleh [12:46] What do you do :) [12:59] Web programmer [12:59] Python :) [12:59] Yourself? [13:01] Programmer [13:01] Mainly python at the moment [13:01] Alot of c# before [13:01] Both web and GUI [13:10] cool [13:12] Where abouts do you work [13:15] Dublin [13:16] Could have guessed that! [13:21] :) [14:30] czajkowski: is your lightning talk Sat or Sun? [14:31] no idea yet... [14:31] hoping gfo like 10am sat morning when everyone is fast asleep [14:31] I've yet to write it and somewhat up the walls [14:31] :( [14:31] hehe [14:31] Well I hope I don't miss it [14:31] I'll be around the venue from noon on Saturday [14:32] coolio [18:35] good evening... [18:35] how are ye? [18:35] when is the irc meet this month? [18:38] sorry maybe im asking a stupid question... [18:41] i just wanted to say that im going to try to translate ubuntu into irish for the next release... [18:43] ubuntu has already an irish option when you boot up, but when you install ubuntu the install menu is'nt translated at all... [18:43] one major error there... [18:55] hughbert: great stuff [18:57] does anyone want to give me a hand? My irish is a bit rusty.. [18:57] My irish is terrible at this stage. [18:57] czajkowski: i hear your very good at irish... [18:57] But if you write some stuff I can ask my friend to look over it. [18:57] all i have is a cupla focail too like.. [18:58] ya im getting my aunt who is a teacher on board aswell.. she is mad into irish so... [18:58] Ah :) [18:59] Shouldn't be so bad then. [18:59] hughbert: great there is a irish translators ml on launchpad [18:59] did ye hear about the goverments plan to grow the irish speaking population by a 1/3 over the next 20 years? [19:00] no.. [19:00] I'm pretty sure that won't happen. [19:00] really maybe i should get on that thing aswell... [19:00] why? [19:01] Because I think more people then ever are asking for the language to be optional. [19:01] It's in decline. [19:02] bollocks... but like all you have to do is choose it when you shove the cd in... as an option.. i don't want to force it down people's throat.. [19:03] hughbert: please mind your language in here [19:03] i mean join the translation team for irish... [19:03] hughbert: Don't get me wrong, I don't think there's anything wrong with people learning it or using it. I just personally think the language is in decline. [19:04] I was referring to the B word [19:04] https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-l10n-ie [19:04] fagan: can you moderate people please on that list [19:04] sorry about that... i get angry sometimes.. [19:04] o dear.. [19:04] hughbert: thats fine just please moderate your language [19:05] i don't want to get thrown off this one aswell... [19:05] thrown off? [19:05] ya i was baned from the ubuntu server irc... [19:05] stupid really.. [19:06] i don't know why... [19:06] hmm if you were it was freenode [19:06] really? [19:06] hmmm... [19:06] and there is usally a good reason for that... but as your're here now [19:06] yes Ubuntu channels are on Freenode [19:07] thats grand sure as long as i can talk to you i'll be grand... [19:07] hughbert: it's nothing to do with me, if you cause issues on other channels under the Ubuntu name space the IRC ops deal wiht it [19:07] *with [19:07] oh I didnt see the person there [19:08] look i do not know why i was banned from the ubuntu channel i went on once and someone just banned me... maybe they think im a treat... [19:10] i said some pretty conterversal things there in a threat a while ago and maybe people got pissed off... some people even removed there own posts... [19:10] hughbert: how about we drop it now seeing as you're back now anways [19:11] live and let live i suppose... [19:13] right back to irish... [19:13] ya i know the irish language is in decline... [19:13] and lets be honest here the language has'nt really evolved over the years.... [19:13] the gealtact people seem to have it all they're own way... [19:19] foreigner here [19:19] it's a bit weird since were i come from [19:19] tsdgeos: hey there! [19:19] the language hasn't spread out from the gealtachtí (hope thats right) much at all... in fact its the opposate... [19:19] with same population than ireland we have a very strong "regional" language [19:19] are you living in ireland? [19:19] with a stronger co-language [19:19] catalan vs spanish [19:19] and we still get everyone there to understand catalan and accept it to be the main language at schools [19:19] aah right and ye have basc to the north aswell... [19:19] czajkowski: here [19:19] hughbert: yep, for a year now [19:19] really wow.. fair duce... [19:19] i mean you go in the streets of barcelona and you can ear people speaking catalan, i have yet to ear anyone speaking irish in dublin [19:19] you'd have to go to a language school or get out of town to hear people speak irish... their all speaking american there.. [19:19] in south dublin... [19:19] i was in the Hill of Tara and i met two girls from Kildare and Dublin speaking irish one fine day.. [19:19] I just thought wow.. [19:19] isnt the hill of tara a motorway now [19:19] They weren't gealtoirs... [19:19] ha ha... ya it is... [19:19] isnt the gov grand [19:19] ha ha... 5km away... [19:20] i was going to use an expetitive but COC doesn't allow me to express my views... [19:21] They were going to build the motorway 1km away from the hill of tara... [19:22] well I suppose its just a hill but they shouldnt just remove a piece of irish history like that [19:22] and then they found one of the biggest southerains ever found in ireland... [19:23] "well i suppose its just a hill" oooo don't make me angry... grrrrrrrr... [19:24] It was the seat of the high king of ireland for millennia... [19:24] yeah [19:24] I said its just a hill as in its just a hill now. [19:24] Cu cullan, queen aofie and all those great people... [19:25] if it was a tourist hotspot id say they would have built around it but since americans dont find it interesting they just plowed on through [19:25] No it is'nt i take it you have never been to visit? [19:25] when I was like 10 [19:26] Its a complex of mounds and hills and churches and stuff.. [19:26] you should go back... [19:27] lovely spot till they fucked it up with that motorway ignorent fools... [19:27] sorry hands in the air... [19:27] im big into preserving our heritage so... [19:28] yeah if they wanted to knock the GPO for some sort of thing id be the first to the picket line [19:28] raging dragon trying to put him into his cage now... [19:28] ya why the GPO? the 1916 rising and all that... [19:29] or is it Q's??? [19:29] 1916 rising [19:30] there are still bullet holes in the pillars [19:30] ya but it looks nice O'Connel street wouldn't be the same with out the GPO.. [19:31] really where? near the entrance? [19:31] hughbert: the Co C does allow you to express yourself , we sjust don't like to see swearing on a channel [19:31] at the entrance [19:31] sorry again... [19:31] you know the pillars at the door [19:31] wow i have to check that out next time im up... [19:31] ya i do... [19:32] Well the GPO looks a little out of place on the street now [19:32] but still id hate to see it knocked ever [19:32] its a bit big alright.. [19:32] but the spike is way bigger... [19:33] it kind of evens its self out there in a irish kind of way... [19:33] the spike makes no sense to me [19:33] the only thing ive seen that it is useful for is getting to the street from most places in the city [19:33] i miss understood you i thought you wanted to knock it down.... [19:33] ha ha... [19:34] is anyone going to the meet at the end of january? [19:34] probably not me im anti social :P [19:35] aah thats a shame... [19:38] real quick lads how do you boot into the game-os on the ps3? [19:39] I dont have a clue but ubuntu isnt being built for ps3 any more [19:39] since they pushed out that update that blocks us [19:40] i know their flippers... [19:40] well it was a security hole [19:41] and people could use it to play hacked games and crap on the ps3 [19:41] i'm going to try to build a few builds for ubuntu on the ps3... [19:41] hughbert: it wont work sony have blocked the feature that allowed users to use other operating systems on the ps3 [19:42] you can still use the old image though [19:42] just not 10.10+ [19:44] ya well it was'nt used for that till recently... [19:44] and they didn't even use the linux partition... [19:44] na some people bought the ps3 as a pc for your tv really [19:45] so it was used up until sony removed it [19:45] they used a USB module... [19:49] ya common people like me...
