iheartubuntu | My brother just got a hold of me is doing pretty good. He moved his wife and elderly mom to his brother in laws house in Osaka. | 03:07 |
---|---|---|
iheartubuntu | He also sent me some articles about a seismologist who predicted the 1989 Loma Prieta quake. The new prediction is for California from March 19 to March 26. He is basing this on a few factors: | 03:15 |
iheartubuntu | #1- the moon is at its closest approach in many years to earth, #2- the equinoctial tide bringing together three of the maximum tide raising forcesĀ and #3- the strange movement of fish, birds and whales around Southern California. | 03:16 |
iheartubuntu | If you recall there were billions of dead fish washing ashore in Redondo Beach this past week and also reports of whales close to shore in SD | 03:17 |
iheartubuntu | wouldnt be a bad idea to have a bottle of water and an energy bar nearby | 03:19 |

akk | iheartubuntu: No, though I have several friends who are. | 03:54 |
akk | My family tree resists genealogy; three of my four grandparents are basically untraceable. | 03:55 |

philipballew | i have never really done pgp. what do you do it for? | 08:14 |
iheartubuntu | like if you dont want the gov to know you are emailing your brother about the weather | 08:15 |
iheartubuntu | i dont know :) | 08:15 |
philipballew | yeah. if only my freidns even knew what encryption means. they think linux is the green party of computers | 08:16 |
philipballew | actual qoute to | 08:16 |
iheartubuntu | ive had people tell me linux is for pron | 08:17 |
iheartubuntu | at first i actually thought so! | 08:17 |

iheartubuntu | i have one brother in my fam i cannot convert | 08:17 |
philipballew | my family conist of my father who says i use my computer for weird things (normal is using internet explorer and outlook) and a mother running xp, i swear i fix that thing everytime i am home. then a brother whos a graphic design photo major with the macbook | 08:20 |
philipballew | i booted it up and decided this is better then the pirated version of windows i had and wanted a chalenge and found it to work really well | 08:21 |
iheartubuntu | im guessing they dont teach linux for graphic design majors | 08:21 |
philipballew | my schools graphic design classroom is about 30 snow leapord macs | 08:22 |
philipballew | i must say though. i like the screen size | 08:22 |

philipballew | 20 something i belive | 08:22 |
iheartubuntu | i just snaked a 22" from the front office at my work and use it at my desk now. love it!!! | 08:23 |
philipballew | NICE. i need to buy a new monitor. my boat anchor of a monitor broke last week :( | 08:23 |
philipballew | creigs list is gonna be my friend | 08:24 |
iheartubuntu | frys? | 08:24 |

iheartubuntu | no name | 08:24 |
iheartubuntu | who cares | 08:24 |
iheartubuntu | its huge compared to what i was using | 08:24 |
iheartubuntu | im trying to hook my dad up with a new HP slimsize desktop.. $550 comes with 21" monitor | 08:25 |
philipballew | for sure. i might be looking at the 50 and under range. college has made me cashed strapped. where would you get that? | 08:25 |
iheartubuntu | sys76 is out of the question now. they want $1000 for less than the HP, plus the Sys76 doesnt even come with a monitor | 08:25 |
iheartubuntu | i as just at costco... $550 | 08:26 |
iheartubuntu | with monitor | 08:26 |
iheartubuntu | was an AMD chip | 08:26 |

jhana-frog | hmmm, i don't get empathy :( | 21:22 |
grantbow | xchat (non gnome) is better :-) | 21:24 |
jhana-frog | no way, xchat doesn't support facebook chat ;) | 21:24 |
grantbow | heaven forbid! lol | 21:24 |
jhana-frog | google talk? | 21:25 |
grantbow | if you are doing all that you might want to run a proxy anyway | 21:26 |
jhana-frog | i want to try the voice and video stuff that allegedly is supported | 21:26 |
jhana-frog | maybe i can join an in person meeting that way :) | 21:28 |
grantbow | xchat really is focused on IRC. I haven't tried it with other systems. | 21:28 |
grantbow | pidgeon is good | 21:29 |
jhana-frog | why is empathy bundled with ubuntu? | 21:29 |
grantbow | good question. the IRC support hasn't been great. I hope it's improved. | 21:29 |
grantbow | the reason had something to do with the back end as I recall | 21:30 |
jhana-frog | i wonder if i should ask in #ubuntu-motu | 21:31 |
grantbow | I see a brainstorm.ubuntu.com item on it for Ubuntu 9.10 | 21:32 |
jhana-frog | link? | 21:33 |
grantbow | http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/item/11705/ | 21:34 |
jhana-frog | 42 thanks | 21:34 |
jhana-frog | telepathy. interesting. | 21:37 |
jhana-frog | oh man, if empathy supports twitter that would be...blissful | 21:38 |
pleia2 | if you use bitlbee than any irc client supports facebook ;) | 22:09 |
pleia2 | (it's what I do) | 22:09 |
