MarkDude | DarkwingDuck, you have any ideas on planning a SoCal geeknic yet? Can we get nhaines involved- that would be cool. Anyone else down south interested? | 19:11 |
* MarkDude says lets get some ideas- then take it to the ML | 19:12 | |
MarkDude | And have a plan for Scale | 19:12 |

MarkDude | http://calendars.techvenue.com/cgi-bin/techvenue.pl?CalendarName=USValley | 20:14 |
MarkDude | jedahan, Feb 19th- good event - http://superhappydevhouse.org/w/page/16345504/FrontPage | 20:22 |
seidos | hey MarkDude, what would it take to turn a mediabox into a kind of console system? | 20:37 |
jledbetter | MarkDude, That looks awesome. Have you been? | 21:36 |
MarkDude | Not to devhouse yet | 21:38 |
MarkDude | lots of cool people I know there tho | 21:38 |
jledbetter | Nice. :) | 21:38 |
MarkDude | that tech venue calendar has all sorts of cool stuff on it | 21:38 |
MarkDude | Ubuntu Hours should be there as well | 21:38 |
MarkDude | IMHO | 21:39 |
MarkDude | There is a cool social media thing in SJ tonight | 21:39 |
MarkDude | SM for change or sumthin | 21:39 |
pleia2 | I always forget to add them to the bay area linux events calendar | 21:39 |
jledbetter | TechVenue - Embody your healing? What in the world. | 21:40 |
MarkDude | pleia2, there is no one to yell at folks with the TV calnedar ;) | 21:40 |
MarkDude | 10% of stuff there is crap - at least | 21:40 |
jledbetter | This is so hard to read. | 21:41 |
MarkDude | right click- open in new window- the way it is laid out - is funky | 21:41 |
seidos | multiplayer cake mania ^_^ | 21:42 |
MarkDude | seidos, what sort of console were you thinkin' of doin'? | 21:42 |
seidos | MarkDude, none. no $ for the hardware. | 21:43 |
seidos | well, i suppose i could buy one...hmmmm | 21:43 |
seidos | i would need to get the console and then at least 2 controllers. | 21:43 |
* MarkDude did not know if you meant console gaing | 21:43 | |
MarkDude | gaming | 21:43 |
seidos | i wonder if xbox controllers could be used to work. | 21:43 |
seidos | MarkDude, yeah, console gaming. sorry. what other kinds of consoles are there? | 21:44 |
MarkDude | yes- I think they can be modded | 21:44 |
* MarkDude has also heard folks say console in relation to TV also | 21:44 | |
seidos | so, can i set up a mediabox as a nintendo gaming console? | 21:44 |
seidos | ohhhh | 21:44 |
seidos | i've never heard that one | 21:44 |
MarkDude | Dude, you can set up a P2 for doing that | 21:45 |
MarkDude | SNES | 21:45 |
MarkDude | in the repos | 21:45 |
MarkDude | if it is very old hardware- use puppy linux | 21:45 |
seidos | yeah, i have an old dell system | 21:45 |
seidos | it only has 130mb of ram | 21:45 |
MarkDude | spend your $ on a contraoller or 2 | 21:46 |
seidos | i should play with it when i get back home | 21:46 |
seidos | well, i was thinking more in terms of marketing | 21:46 |
MarkDude | Puppy- try the Arcade version | 21:46 |
seidos | profitability | 21:46 |
MarkDude | legalities with that area tho | 21:46 |
seidos | there isn't a killer app though | 21:46 |
seidos | but i was thinking if there was a killer app, like multiplayer cake mania or something | 21:46 |
MarkDude | owning roms requires the cartridge | 21:46 |
seidos | a foss version that is, then the mediabox would sell more | 21:47 |
MarkDude | technically that is ;) | 21:47 |
seidos | i'll see what i can do on my own | 21:47 |
* MarkDude wanted to do that a while ago- could not - so I need folks to donate old games | 21:47 | |
seidos | it sounds like a software problem, and price point problem | 21:47 |
seidos | MarkDude, it depends what you mean by "owning" | 21:48 |
* MarkDude puts hands in pockets, looks up | 21:48 | |
MarkDude | and starts whistling | 21:49 |
seidos | i think you just "owned" me | 21:51 |
* MarkDude is the PR person for non-profits | 21:56 | |
MarkDude | plausible deniability is very important | 21:56 |
MarkDude | :D | 21:56 |
seidos | ^_^ | 21:56 |
