[00:29] * MarkDude just wanted to point out that you need NOT be a Super Nerd to go to SNNSF [00:31] Super Nerd Network Software Foundation [00:31] Saturday Night Noisy Snow Fun [00:38] * MarkDude likes the 1st one [00:38] Social Networking's Not So Fun [00:39] We should get shirts, like the Justice League of America [00:39] Or defenders of Wildlife [00:40] rww: I like yours [00:41] 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] SuperNerdNight San Francisco [00:41] 20:03:48 < MarkDude> Anyone local up for SuperNerdNight tonight at Rogue Ale house? [00:42] ah, that was before I joined [00:43] My bad [00:43] No biggie, most people had probably seen it. [00:43] * MarkDude had some folks flake- I am still going [00:43] akk: you mean you don't check the logfiles every day to see what you missed!? [00:44] * MarkDude has it indexed and printed in triplicate :D [00:44] heh, I have enough trouble keeping up with realtime IRC [00:47] what is nerd night [00:53] http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=183755411658835 [00:53] kdub, they only have a FB linl [00:53] link [00:53] bastards I tell ya' :) [00:55] oh game night! thats pretty awesome [00:57] board games, retro games [00:57] Um, "super nerds" but they advertise only on Facebook? [00:57] What is wrong with this picture? [00:57] super nerds that many work at game companies [00:58] different type of nerds [00:58] Some may even LARP [00:58] * MarkDude thinks it is an age thing, lots of young people there [00:59] These kids nowadays with their Facebook, and their tweetering [00:59] Twitter is mostly middle-aged people, apparently. :) [00:59] And their haircuts, dont get me started about that [01:00] Its weird - about half the nerds I know would PREFER I use FB to communicate with them [01:00] likes its rude to email or sumthin' [01:00] Or thats just what old people do [01:01] In my day, we used to spell out the whole word [01:02] Most of the people I know who use FB as primary means of communication are extremely nontechnical. [01:02] how would i know how to cut my hair if it wasnt for fb? :) [01:03] akk, yes, it is amazing how many folks can architect sumthin' and not get say how electricity works [01:04] Then again knowing all sorts of Star Wars or Star Trek stuff is nonetheless geeky, even if they only know fake science [01:05] true [01:06] for the record, i wish i could get rid of facebook [01:22] 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 [01:23] * MarkDude 's Grandma is in her 80s and loves FB btw [07:01] ever get the feeling you're being followed? [07:07] seidos: I prefer to do the following, thank you very much. [07:08] * seidos chuckles [07:13] wait.............. [07:13] * seidos close [07:13] i think i should sleep [07:26] jono: good morning! :) [07:30] hey nhaines [07:30] hows tricks? [07:32] anybody know how to check package info from cli? [07:36] or how to get a mask? or some instructions from a trustworthy source? [07:49] jono: busy, busy, but some fun stuff coming up. I'm especially looking forward to SCaLE! [07:50] nhaines, cool :-) [07:50] jono: I have the thoughts about Ubucon as well... might see if I can get anything going. [07:56] what's cooler than being cool? [07:57] cool != warm [07:58] * seidos sleeps === jono_ is now known as jono === seidos is now known as Optimus-Prime [09:27] Yay, SuperNerdNight- was super === jono_ is now known as jono === jono is now known as Guest69233 [17:45] Jetzt kann ich wieder auf Deutsch tippen! [17:45] Although, ironically, that is not obvious by the above phrase. [17:45] * nhaines shrugs. [17:51] heh :) [17:53] wow its been a long time since i tried to speak or read german what does that say nhaines? [18:07] question, anyone know where the unity/wayland for ubuntu folks hang out? [18:12] unity and wayland are different things :) [18:12] for UI and design of unity you want #ayatana [18:13] and there is #wayland [18:29] jamiedmattingly: it said "Now I can type in German again!" [18:36] kdub: [18:36] 10:12:46 < pleia2> for UI and design of unity you want #ayatana [18:36] 10:13:30 < pleia2> and there is #wayland [18:42] Sehr gut. Bald werden Sie spricht auch Deutsch. [18:43] 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 ;) [18:44] 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] Also: see what others are typing when they speak Spanish or German. [18:45] interesting [18:45] Now, if only there was a google translate plugin for irssi [18:50] 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 :) [18:51] ein bier vitte [18:53] bitte ;) [18:53] see it has been that long i guess lol [18:54] that's really all you need to know [18:54] i can say it in 3 languages :) [18:55] una cervezaq por favor [18:55] minus the q [18:55] hehe [18:56] 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] my typing still sucks either that or this darn small netbook keyboard [18:57] oh i could go for some schnitzle mit spetzle and im alost positive i spelled most of that wrong [18:58] ooooh or some brats with fuer senf thank sounds real good [18:58] now im hungry again [19:16] I like spaetzle. I also like bratwurst. Senf means mustard, but "fuer" is a preposition meaning "for". :) [19:19] ok i spelled it wrong the was supposed to be wo9rd for fire like hot mustard [19:22] i discharged fro army in 91 and came back to states haven't had much occasion to speak german since [19:24] 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] thats exactly how it was lol [19:24] very tasty [19:25] When mustard is hot or spicy or strong we say it's "scharf", though, generically. :) [19:25] could it be a regional thing? [19:26] 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] are you from germany? [19:26] Long Beach, actually. [19:26] just speak german? [19:26] Yup! :) [19:27] i used to speak it pretty good when i was there but cant say much of anything now [19:30] That's the trick, really. :) The Internet's good for that, and of course sometimes you find good restaurants.... [19:31] i havent found a good german food place since i left [19:32] Whereabouts do you live? [19:32] vallejo [19:33] 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. [19:34] the used to be a place in the mall in concord but the food was really bad [19:35] 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] 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.) [19:36] tortilla in a can? [19:36] That's how they sold them in the 60's. [19:36] Back east, anyhow. :) [19:36] wow [19:37] They used to sell rice in a cn- already cooked also [19:37] and i thought getting potatoes in a can was bad lol [19:47] has anyone ever used andchat or another android app to get on the irc here? [19:54] I used something or other back in the G1 days but it liked to disconnect every time the display slept. [19:55] So instead I just use ConnectBot and screen plus irssi. :D [19:57] I am using andchat currently, which is what the crashsystems1 nick is using [20:03] Awkward geek moment last night at SNNSF- dude walks in - sees us playing Raskulls, notices one of us is using his gamertag [20:04] Says, hey where is my ex-gf- she still has my tag on the 360 [20:04] It was a [20:05] On our side of geekdom the question is usually - what distro do you use? [20:05] Or what is your project [20:05] the most common question was - what console do you prefer? or are you a PC gamer? [20:06] * MarkDude had to clarify that most of my gaming was on Linux, and usually involved penguins [20:22] hey crashsystems i tried setting it up last night and had difficulty do you mind walking me through a little? [20:46] hello [20:46] i got my phone to work as andro user [20:47] now I need to figure out how to get my nick === AndroUser is now known as jamiedmattingly1 [20:48] hello [20:48] now there are 2 of me :) [20:48] good for your wife or girlfriend :) [20:49] testing out IRC built into Opera. [20:49] andro irc was easier to set up than andchat much easier [20:49] isnt opera a browser? [20:51] yes, but the new Opera versions have email, IRC, widgets, etc built into it [20:51] so far Im liking Opera a lot. [20:51] wow i gotta try that [20:53] so far the only prob with Opera is I dont have Java working in it yet [21:03] jamiedmattingly: you can authenticate to your nick and do ghost from nickserv [21:03] doing "msg Nickserv help" explains it [22:22] pleia2: thanks for directing to #ayatana, i would have never figured that out on my own [22:37] jdeslip: http://scripts.irssi.org/html/gtrans.pl.html [22:37] * rww has never used [22:44] Wow, I never in bothered to look because I thought it was so far-fetched [22:46] jdeslip: this is the Internet that yo're on. [22:56] hey pleia2 are you here? [22:57] jamiedmattingly: yep [22:58] 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] jamiedmattingly: yes, the condos are above the street level stores [22:59] ok just wanted to make sure had right place [22:59] so you'll see The Roastery, the entrance to the condos, a Tutti Melon yogurt shop, a real estate firm [23:00] and google maps calls it "Cafe Trieste" [23:00] (old name maybe?) [23:01] maybe i know trieste is a town in italy my dad was stationed there when i wasw a kid [23:02] and feel free to give me a call if you get lost, can't find us, etc: 610-952-7370 [23:02] what area code is 610? [23:02] philadelphia [23:02] your from phili? [23:03] I lived there for several years [23:03] just moved out here last year [23:04] so im not the only transplant then :) im from illinois [23:04] cool [23:05] I actually grew up in Maine, lived in New York for a while [23:05] i was born in england (dad was in airforce) moved to america when i was 12 to ofallon il [23:06] I was born in georgia (I am secretly southern) [23:06] then fairfield when 17 then after first marriage moved to springfield il in 01 then after divorce moved to vallejo in 04 [23:06] my parents moved to maine before I was old enough to remember [23:07] i was stationed at fort benning for basic [23:07] * pleia2 raises glass to moving to california after divorces [23:07] your not missing much [23:07] cheers [23:07] :) [23:16] how do you do that thing where your doing something rather than saying something i guess [23:16] shows an * instead of your name [23:18] /me does something [23:19] how vague [23:20] wow i tried typing it but nothing happened [23:21] ok so its the / then my name followed by the action right? [23:22] not your name, "me" [23:22] * jamiedmattingly is confused [23:22] there you go :) [23:22] /me [23:22] slash-em-eee-space [23:22] or /em depending on fate [23:22] yay [23:23] * akk cheers [23:23] * jamiedmattingly raises hands in triumph [23:23] * jtatum does something [23:32] pleia2 - but now how do you write "/me" at the beginning like that without causing the action... [23:33] jdeslip: / /me does things [23:33] does the leading / kill any further commands? [23:33] I think so [23:33] / /me does things [23:33] yeah [23:33] that's double /s! [23:34] lol [23:34] I think it depends on the client -- doesn't seem to work in xchat. [23:34] I've never found a way to get a slash at the beginning of a line. [23:34] Tried / / and //, they both say unknown command. [23:34] yeah, it's client specific [23:36] * iheartubuntu is crazy [23:36] works in Opera irc [23:36] /me works everywhere (AFAIK), but getting it to SAY "/me" at the beginning of a line doesn't. [23:36] (notice I had to put a space there, otherwise xchat would have complained) [23:37] How can we raise this discussion to another level of meta ;) [23:37] * jamiedmattingly curses xchat and its complaints [23:39] this is getting to be fun [23:41] ok gotta get out of here see you tonight who ever will be there [23:42] akk: /say ? [23:42] /me tries /say [23:42] woo! Thanks, rww :) [23:47] /etc/hosts [23:48] 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] haha [23:48] Command not found: (A)bort, (R)etry, (F)ail? _
