dbb | hello- I have ubuntu 10.10, and an application I run just posted a nice notification of an upgrade. I could swear it had a link on it.. you know, pops up in the lower right hand corner.. where do I find that? it only lasted a moment | 04:13 |
dbb | there must be a list of recent notifications somewhere? | 04:13 |

seiuno | pleia2: have you heard of "Banksy"? http://www.ifc.com/news/assets_c/02012011_banksy1.jpg | 06:14 |
seiuno | open letter to steve jobs: http://underlore.com/TBA/?p=1586 | 17:42 |
akk | 503 Service Unavailable | 17:44 |
akk | slashdotted? | 17:44 |
seiuno | works here | 17:50 |
seiuno | :| | 17:51 |
seiuno | too bad, it was an interesting read. very passionate. | 17:51 |
nhaines | akk: try again. it works here. | 18:23 |
jtatum | uh | 18:24 |
jtatum | this letter is sickening | 18:24 |
jtatum | i can't abide someone being overjoyed by cancer | 18:24 |
nhaines | Hmm, having read the letter I'm not sure the author actually supports his point in any way. | 18:28 |
pleia2 | tl;dr | 18:31 |
pleia2 | (but mostly for me life is too short to dwell upon such hatred) | 18:31 |
pleia2 | and apple bashing is dull | 18:32 |
pleia2 | nhaines: is http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale9x/special-events/ubucon done enough to be linked places? | 18:34 |
akk | I agree, jtatum. I did get it a little later, but got turned off right away by that part. | 18:34 |
akk | And after that it looked like it was flying off into rantville, so I gave up and went inside and started making rouladen instead. | 18:36 |
jledbetter | +1 jtatum | 18:40 |

seiuno | sickening? that's hyperbolic. | 18:46 |
seiuno | Bahrain is sickening. the letter is titillating at worst. | 18:47 |
seiuno | back to our dull, mundane lives. | 18:48 |
* seiuno eats a rich, fatty, sugary food | 18:48 | |
akk | titillating? "pleasantly and superficially exciting"? "sexually arousing"? | 18:53 |
akk | I guess I gave up before I got to that part of the letter. | 18:53 |
seiuno | stimulating then | 18:53 |
seiuno | "sensually exciting" according to wiktionary | 18:54 |
seiuno | not "supeficially exciting" | 18:54 |
seiuno | though, perhaps all "excitement" is "superficial" | 18:54 |
akk | I used dict and took the two two definitions from wordnet and gcide. | 18:55 |
seiuno | that's nice | 18:55 |
akk | But regardless, you're clearly having a very different reaction to the letter than most folks here. | 18:55 |
seiuno | that is obvious. | 18:55 |
* seiuno pumps his fist | 18:56 | |
seiuno | "status quo!" | 18:56 |
akk | Yes, clearly the only two choices are the status quo or gleefully rejoicing in someone's sickness and death. | 18:57 |
akk | Certainly no one here working productively for change, like, say, contributing to free software projects. | 18:57 |
* akk wanders off to do more of that | 18:58 | |
jledbetter | Some of us have had loved ones die to cancer so wouldn't wish it on anyone. | 18:59 |
seiuno | "gleeful rejoicing" is a misrepresentation of the article | 18:59 |
seiuno | saying he wishes cancer on someone is also a misrepresenation | 19:01 |
* seiuno shrugs | 19:01 | |
jledbetter | I'm done. | 19:01 |
seiuno | i've had loved ones die. death's inevitably is highly probable. mirrors cause anger. | 19:03 |
seiuno | heh | 19:06 |
nhaines | pleia2: as finished as anything else. The official site isn't coming together as quickly as I'd hoped and I may not have it done until Monday or Tuesday. | 19:25 |
pleia2 | nhaines: ok thanks, was just blogging about it and was curious, went ahead and blogged w/ that schedule | 19:31 |
