| * MarkDude just wanted to point out that you need NOT be a Super Nerd to go to SNNSF | 00:29 | |
| akk | Super Nerd Network Software Foundation | 00:31 |
|---|---|---|
| akk | Saturday Night Noisy Snow Fun | 00:31 |
| * MarkDude likes the 1st one | 00:38 | |
| rww | Social Networking's Not So Fun | 00:38 |
| MarkDude | We should get shirts, like the Justice League of America | 00:39 |
| MarkDude | Or defenders of Wildlife | 00:39 |
| akk | rww: I like yours | 00:40 |
| akk | Doesn't seem like MarkDude is going to tell us what it really stands for, so we're going to have to keep making stuff up. | 00:41 |
| rww | SuperNerdNight San Francisco | 00:41 |
| rww | 20:03:48 < MarkDude> Anyone local up for SuperNerdNight tonight at Rogue Ale house? | 00:41 |
| akk | ah, that was before I joined | 00:42 |
| MarkDude | My bad | 00:43 |
| akk | No biggie, most people had probably seen it. | 00:43 |
| * MarkDude had some folks flake- I am still going | 00:43 | |
| rww | akk: you mean you don't check the logfiles every day to see what you missed!? | 00:43 |
| * MarkDude has it indexed and printed in triplicate :D | 00:44 | |
| akk | heh, I have enough trouble keeping up with realtime IRC | 00:44 |
| kdub | what is nerd night | 00:47 |
| MarkDude | http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=183755411658835 | 00:53 |
| MarkDude | kdub, they only have a FB linl | 00:53 |
| MarkDude | link | 00:53 |
| MarkDude | bastards I tell ya' :) | 00:53 |
| kdub | oh game night! thats pretty awesome | 00:55 |
| MarkDude | board games, retro games | 00:57 |
| akk | Um, "super nerds" but they advertise only on Facebook? | 00:57 |
| akk | What is wrong with this picture? | 00:57 |
| MarkDude | super nerds that many work at game companies | 00:57 |
| MarkDude | different type of nerds | 00:58 |
| MarkDude | Some may even LARP | 00:58 |
| * MarkDude thinks it is an age thing, lots of young people there | 00:58 | |
| MarkDude | These kids nowadays with their Facebook, and their tweetering | 00:59 |
| akk | Twitter is mostly middle-aged people, apparently. :) | 00:59 |
| MarkDude | And their haircuts, dont get me started about that | 00:59 |
| MarkDude | Its weird - about half the nerds I know would PREFER I use FB to communicate with them | 01:00 |
| MarkDude | likes its rude to email or sumthin' | 01:00 |
| MarkDude | Or thats just what old people do | 01:00 |
| MarkDude | In my day, we used to spell out the whole word | 01:01 |
| akk | Most of the people I know who use FB as primary means of communication are extremely nontechnical. | 01:02 |
| kdub | how would i know how to cut my hair if it wasnt for fb? :) | 01:02 |
| MarkDude | akk, yes, it is amazing how many folks can architect sumthin' and not get say how electricity works | 01:03 |
| MarkDude | Then again knowing all sorts of Star Wars or Star Trek stuff is nonetheless geeky, even if they only know fake science | 01:04 |
| akk | true | 01:05 |
| kdub | for the record, i wish i could get rid of facebook | 01:06 |
| MarkDude | grantbow, said he was thinking about doing that, I told him what I heard him say was- well folks under 45, I really dont want to talk to them on their terms | 01:22 |
| * MarkDude 's Grandma is in her 80s and loves FB btw | 01:23 | |
| seidos | ever get the feeling you're being followed? | 07:01 |
| nhaines | seidos: I prefer to do the following, thank you very much. | 07:07 |
| * seidos chuckles | 07:08 | |
| seidos | wait.............. | 07:13 |
| * seidos close | 07:13 | |
| seidos | i think i should sleep | 07:13 |
| nhaines | jono: good morning! :) | 07:26 |
| jono | hey nhaines | 07:30 |
| jono | hows tricks? | 07:30 |
| seidos | anybody know how to check package info from cli? | 07:32 |
| seidos | or how to get a mask? or some instructions from a trustworthy source? | 07:36 |
| nhaines | jono: busy, busy, but some fun stuff coming up. I'm especially looking forward to SCaLE! | 07:49 |
| jono | nhaines, cool :-) | 07:50 |
| nhaines | jono: I have the thoughts about Ubucon as well... might see if I can get anything going. | 07:50 |
| seidos | what's cooler than being cool? | 07:56 |
| seidos | cool != warm | 07:57 |
| * seidos sleeps | 07:58 | |
| === jono_ is now known as jono | ||
| === seidos is now known as Optimus-Prime | ||
| MarkDude | Yay, SuperNerdNight- was super | 09:27 |

| nhaines | Jetzt kann ich wieder auf Deutsch tippen! | 17:45 |
| nhaines | Although, ironically, that is not obvious by the above phrase. | 17:45 |
| * nhaines shrugs. | 17:45 | |
| pleia2 | heh :) | 17:51 |
| jamiedmattingly | wow its been a long time since i tried to speak or read german what does that say nhaines? | 17:53 |
| kdub | question, anyone know where the unity/wayland for ubuntu folks hang out? | 18:07 |
| pleia2 | unity and wayland are different things :) | 18:12 |
| pleia2 | for UI and design of unity you want #ayatana | 18:12 |
| pleia2 | and there is #wayland | 18:13 |
| nhaines | jamiedmattingly: it said "Now I can type in German again!" | 18:29 |
| pleia2 | kdub: | 18:36 |
| pleia2 | 10:12:46 < pleia2> for UI and design of unity you want #ayatana | 18:36 |
| pleia2 | 10:13:30 < pleia2> and there is #wayland | 18:36 |
| jdeslip | Sehr gut. Bald werden Sie spricht auch Deutsch. | 18:42 |
| jdeslip | By the way, big flashplayer update today for linux/ubuntu. Hardware acceleration works great if you have an nvidia card. Full screen flash video drops from 90% to 10% on my machine ;) | 18:43 |
| nhaines | Well, I do speak it far more often than I type it. :) But now that locale info was fixed on this server I can type "süß" instead of "suess". | 18:44 |
| nhaines | Also: see what others are typing when they speak Spanish or German. | 18:44 |
| jdeslip | interesting | 18:45 |
| jdeslip | Now, if only there was a google translate plugin for irssi | 18:45 |
| jamiedmattingly | i was stationed in germany for a few years but thats was so long ago all i can really remember is how to order a beer :) | 18:50 |
| jamiedmattingly | ein bier vitte | 18:51 |
| nhaines | bitte ;) | 18:53 |
| jamiedmattingly | see it has been that long i guess lol | 18:53 |
| pleia2 | that's really all you need to know | 18:54 |
| jamiedmattingly | i can say it in 3 languages :) | 18:54 |
| jamiedmattingly | una cervezaq por favor | 18:55 |
| jamiedmattingly | minus the q | 18:55 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 18:55 |
| nhaines | Maybe while I'm at SCaLE I'll eat German food at Alpine Village in Torrance. Usually I go to Old World in Huntington Beach. | 18:56 |
| jamiedmattingly | my typing still sucks either that or this darn small netbook keyboard | 18:56 |
| jamiedmattingly | oh i could go for some schnitzle mit spetzle and im alost positive i spelled most of that wrong | 18:57 |
| jamiedmattingly | ooooh or some brats with fuer senf thank sounds real good | 18:58 |
| jamiedmattingly | now im hungry again | 18:58 |
| nhaines | I like spaetzle. I also like bratwurst. Senf means mustard, but "fuer" is a preposition meaning "for". :) | 19:16 |
| jamiedmattingly | ok i spelled it wrong the was supposed to be wo9rd for fire like hot mustard | 19:19 |
| jamiedmattingly | i discharged fro army in 91 and came back to states haven't had much occasion to speak german since | 19:22 |
| nhaines | Not sure I've had Feuersenf before but sounds tasty. Any mustard you have to store in a metal toothpaste tube is fine by me! | 19:24 |
| jamiedmattingly | thats exactly how it was lol | 19:24 |
| jamiedmattingly | very tasty | 19:24 |
| nhaines | When mustard is hot or spicy or strong we say it's "scharf", though, generically. :) | 19:25 |
| jamiedmattingly | could it be a regional thing? | 19:25 |
| nhaines | No, Feuersenf would be a specific type or recipe rather than a generic term for "hot". Maybe. I don't think anyone would misunderstand what Feuersenf is supposed to taste like. :) | 19:26 |
| jamiedmattingly | are you from germany? | 19:26 |
| nhaines | Long Beach, actually. | 19:26 |
| jamiedmattingly | just speak german? | 19:26 |
| nhaines | Yup! :) | 19:26 |
| jamiedmattingly | i used to speak it pretty good when i was there but cant say much of anything now | 19:27 |
| nhaines | That's the trick, really. :) The Internet's good for that, and of course sometimes you find good restaurants.... | 19:30 |
| jamiedmattingly | i havent found a good german food place since i left | 19:31 |
| nhaines | Whereabouts do you live? | 19:32 |
| jamiedmattingly | vallejo | 19:32 |
| nhaines | I know there was a place in San Jose or San Francisco when we went to CLS, but it was closed on Sundays when we tried to visit. | 19:33 |
| jamiedmattingly | the used to be a place in the mall in concord but the food was really bad | 19:34 |
| jamiedmattingly | then again i went to a couple of mexican food places in illinois when i lived there and they were really bad as well | 19:35 |
| nhaines | You haven't lived until you've eaten a canned tortilla. (At least, if you taste one you'll know you're certainly not dead.) | 19:35 |
| jamiedmattingly | tortilla in a can? | 19:36 |
| nhaines | That's how they sold them in the 60's. | 19:36 |
| nhaines | Back east, anyhow. :) | 19:36 |
| jamiedmattingly | wow | 19:36 |
| MarkDude | They used to sell rice in a cn- already cooked also | 19:37 |
| jamiedmattingly | and i thought getting potatoes in a can was bad lol | 19:37 |
| jamiedmattingly | has anyone ever used andchat or another android app to get on the irc here? | 19:47 |
| nhaines | I used something or other back in the G1 days but it liked to disconnect every time the display slept. | 19:54 |
| nhaines | So instead I just use ConnectBot and screen plus irssi. :D | 19:55 |
| crashsystems | I am using andchat currently, which is what the crashsystems1 nick is using | 19:57 |
| MarkDude | Awkward geek moment last night at SNNSF- dude walks in - sees us playing Raskulls, notices one of us is using his gamertag | 20:03 |
| MarkDude | Says, hey where is my ex-gf- she still has my tag on the 360 | 20:04 |
| MarkDude | It was a <geek moment> | 20:04 |
| MarkDude | On our side of geekdom the question is usually - what distro do you use? | 20:05 |
| MarkDude | Or what is your project | 20:05 |
| MarkDude | the most common question was - what console do you prefer? or are you a PC gamer? | 20:05 |
| * MarkDude had to clarify that most of my gaming was on Linux, and usually involved penguins | 20:06 | |
| jamiedmattingly | hey crashsystems i tried setting it up last night and had difficulty do you mind walking me through a little? | 20:22 |
| AndroUser | hello | 20:46 |
| jamiedmattingly | i got my phone to work as andro user | 20:46 |
| AndroUser | now I need to figure out how to get my nick | 20:47 |
| === AndroUser is now known as jamiedmattingly1 | ||
| jamiedmattingly1 | hello | 20:48 |
| jamiedmattingly | now there are 2 of me :) | 20:48 |
| iheartubuntu | good for your wife or girlfriend :) | 20:48 |
| iheartubuntu | testing out IRC built into Opera. | 20:49 |
| jamiedmattingly | andro irc was easier to set up than andchat much easier | 20:49 |
| jamiedmattingly | isnt opera a browser? | 20:49 |
| iheartubuntu | yes, but the new Opera versions have email, IRC, widgets, etc built into it | 20:51 |
| iheartubuntu | so far Im liking Opera a lot. | 20:51 |
| jamiedmattingly | wow i gotta try that | 20:51 |
| iheartubuntu | so far the only prob with Opera is I dont have Java working in it yet | 20:53 |
| kdub_ | jamiedmattingly: you can authenticate to your nick and do ghost from nickserv | 21:03 |
| kdub_ | doing "msg Nickserv help" explains it | 21:03 |
| kdub_ | pleia2: thanks for directing to #ayatana, i would have never figured that out on my own | 22:22 |
| rww | jdeslip: http://scripts.irssi.org/html/gtrans.pl.html | 22:37 |
| * rww has never used | 22:37 | |
| jdeslip | Wow, I never in bothered to look because I thought it was so far-fetched | 22:44 |
| nhaines | jdeslip: this is the Internet that yo're on. | 22:46 |
| jamiedmattingly | hey pleia2 are you here? | 22:56 |
| pleia2 | jamiedmattingly: yep | 22:57 |
| jamiedmattingly | hey i dont know much about sf. was looking up address for tonight and it listed a bunch of condos at 199 new montgomery am i looking at the ri8ght address? | 22:58 |
| pleia2 | jamiedmattingly: yes, the condos are above the street level stores | 22:58 |
| jamiedmattingly | ok just wanted to make sure had right place | 22:59 |
| pleia2 | so you'll see The Roastery, the entrance to the condos, a Tutti Melon yogurt shop, a real estate firm | 22:59 |
| pleia2 | and google maps calls it "Cafe Trieste" | 23:00 |
| pleia2 | (old name maybe?) | 23:00 |
| jamiedmattingly | maybe i know trieste is a town in italy my dad was stationed there when i wasw a kid | 23:01 |
| pleia2 | and feel free to give me a call if you get lost, can't find us, etc: 610-952-7370 | 23:02 |
| jamiedmattingly | what area code is 610? | 23:02 |
| pleia2 | philadelphia | 23:02 |
| jamiedmattingly | your from phili? | 23:02 |
| pleia2 | I lived there for several years | 23:03 |
| pleia2 | just moved out here last year | 23:03 |
| jamiedmattingly | so im not the only transplant then :) im from illinois | 23:04 |
| pleia2 | cool | 23:04 |
| pleia2 | I actually grew up in Maine, lived in New York for a while | 23:05 |
| jamiedmattingly | i was born in england (dad was in airforce) moved to america when i was 12 to ofallon il | 23:05 |
| pleia2 | I was born in georgia (I am secretly southern) | 23:06 |
| jamiedmattingly | then fairfield when 17 then after first marriage moved to springfield il in 01 then after divorce moved to vallejo in 04 | 23:06 |
| pleia2 | my parents moved to maine before I was old enough to remember | 23:06 |
| jamiedmattingly | i was stationed at fort benning for basic | 23:07 |
| * pleia2 raises glass to moving to california after divorces | 23:07 | |
| jamiedmattingly | your not missing much | 23:07 |
| jamiedmattingly | cheers | 23:07 |
| pleia2 | :) | 23:07 |
| jamiedmattingly | how do you do that thing where your doing something rather than saying something i guess | 23:16 |
| jamiedmattingly | shows an * instead of your name | 23:16 |
| pleia2 | /me does something | 23:18 |
| jtatum | how vague | 23:19 |
| jamiedmattingly | wow i tried typing it but nothing happened | 23:20 |
| jamiedmattingly | ok so its the / then my name followed by the action right? | 23:21 |
| pleia2 | not your name, "me" | 23:22 |
| * jamiedmattingly is confused | 23:22 | |
| pleia2 | there you go :) | 23:22 |
| jtatum | /me <action> | 23:22 |
| akk | slash-em-eee-space | 23:22 |
| jtatum | or /em depending on fate | 23:22 |
| jamiedmattingly | yay | 23:22 |
| * akk cheers | 23:23 | |
| * jamiedmattingly raises hands in triumph | 23:23 | |
| * jtatum does something | 23:23 | |
| jdeslip | pleia2 - but now how do you write "/me" at the beginning like that without causing the action... | 23:32 |
| pleia2 | jdeslip: / /me does things | 23:33 |
| jdeslip | does the leading / kill any further commands? | 23:33 |
| pleia2 | I think so | 23:33 |
| pleia2 | / /me does things | 23:33 |
| pleia2 | yeah | 23:33 |
| pleia2 | that's double /s! | 23:33 |
| jdeslip | lol | 23:34 |
| akk | I think it depends on the client -- doesn't seem to work in xchat. | 23:34 |
| akk | I've never found a way to get a slash at the beginning of a line. | 23:34 |
| akk | Tried / / and //, they both say unknown command. | 23:34 |
| pleia2 | yeah, it's client specific | 23:34 |
| * iheartubuntu is crazy | 23:36 | |
| iheartubuntu | works in Opera irc | 23:36 |
| akk | /me works everywhere (AFAIK), but getting it to SAY "/me" at the beginning of a line doesn't. | 23:36 |
| akk | (notice I had to put a space there, otherwise xchat would have complained) | 23:36 |
| jdeslip | How can we raise this discussion to another level of meta ;) | 23:37 |
| * jamiedmattingly curses xchat and its complaints | 23:37 | |
| jamiedmattingly | this is getting to be fun | 23:39 |
| jamiedmattingly | ok gotta get out of here see you tonight who ever will be there | 23:41 |
| rww | akk: /say ? | 23:42 |
| akk | /me tries /say | 23:42 |
| akk | woo! Thanks, rww :) | 23:42 |
| akk | /etc/hosts | 23:47 |
| akk | ooh, funny, I didn't need to prefix that one at all (didn't mean to send it, I was checking to see what the exact error message was :) | 23:48 |
| nhaines | haha | 23:48 |
| nhaines | Command not found: (A)bort, (R)etry, (F)ail? _ | 23:48 |
