* mhall119 is playing with dynamic models in Django02:19
mhall119it feels like I'm playing with explosives02:19
mhall119or Perl02:20
nhandlermhall119: Hey! Don't ever insult the power of Perl (although, I still think shebang sounds like an explosive)02:37
mhall119I'd never insult Perl02:38
mhall119I meant it has the same feel02:38
mhall119that there's more than one way to do it, but that doesn't mean you should, but it does mean want to anyway02:38
* nhandler thinks that last sentence was more confusing than any of his Perl scripts02:39
mhall119oh come on, I could parse that with a regular expression02:40
nhandlermhall119: Parsing is not the same as understanding02:41
mhall119tell that to Perl02:41
mhall119nhandler: http://webscripts.softpedia.com/script/Database-Tools/Sequel-Explorer-42207.html02:43
mhall119http://sourceforge.net/projects/sqladministrato/ is a better link02:45
mhall119me and Perl have a history02:45
JanC*pfff* Unity is rendering most of our locoteam's demo hardware "useless"  :-/02:58
mhall119JanC: using Alpha 2?03:04
JanCinstalling alpha 2 on soem hardware to show at FOSDEM  ;)03:05
JanCthey are old Thinkpads03:05
JanCRR5103:06
JanC-R03:06
JanCapparently they have a 855 IGP, which isn't supported well anymore by Intel, so no 3D, and no (real) Unity...  :-(03:07
mhall119have you tried Unity 2D?03:07
JanCyeah, running that on one now03:08
JanCare Places broken in "normal" Unity too?03:09
JanCor is this just Unity 2D ?03:09
JanCI think most/all of the hardware ubuntu-be owns for demo purposes can't run the 3D Unity  :-/03:11
mhall119I don't know, I haven't tried Unity since 10.1003:12
mhall119but I've heard people say the 2D/QT version is quite fast now03:12
JanCit's fast, just that Places doesn't work, so I need a terminal to launch applications   ;)03:13
JanCwell, or navigate to /usr/bin/ every time03:14
JanCit's an alpha of course  ;)03:14
JanCI hope unity-2d will keep (almost) feature-parity with unity for some years...03:18
JanCmhall119: is there a reason why the loco-directory uses only UTC?  :-/03:22
mhall119JanC: for meetings we use UTC03:30
mhall119only because we haven't decided on a good way to implement 'local time' for IRC meetings03:31
mhall119LD uses local time for Events if they have a venue03:31
JanCfor most LoCoTeams there isn't more than 1 local time03:31
mhall119I think we have a plan for adding local times to meetings and elsewhere in LD though03:31
mhall119JanC: lots of them have multiple though, and we need to make is useable to them too03:32
JanCI guess the other solution is to let people set their timezone in their profile...03:32
mhall119JanC: see the comments in https://bugs.launchpad.net/loco-directory/+bug/71175403:32
ubot4Launchpad bug 711754 in loco-directory "meeting start/end time uses UTC, not local time (affects: 2) (heat: 10)" [Wishlist,Confirmed]03:32
mhall119JanC: that's also in the works, we have a UserProfile that can store timezone, and I think we're getting it from Launchpad03:33
JanCah03:33
JanCwould also be nice to associate a list of timezones to a locoteam then03:34
JanCwhen entering a date/time the user's timezone could be used, when displaying all the team's timezones, that would be great indeed03:36
mhall119that's the plan03:37
JanCso, time to get some sleep03:43
