[01:21] <Chloric> hey guys, evening all
[02:22] <mhall119> bbl, gonna go test Natty
[02:42] <Chloric> hey mhall, are you there?
[02:54] <mhall119> Chloric: I am now
[02:54] <mhall119> running Natty
[02:54] <Chloric> oh good
[02:54] <mhall119> what's up?
[02:54] <Chloric> and niiiice. i switched over to Elementary OS
[02:55] <Chloric> oh, i had a few questions
[02:55] <mhall119> how are you liking it?
[02:55] <Chloric> I'm loving eOS from even at its infancy
[02:55] <Chloric> but yeah, i had a few question
[02:57] <Chloric> your project, Qimo, do you receive any funding?
[02:57] <mhall119> shoot
[02:57] <mhall119> we get donations from time to time
[02:57] <Chloric> oh ok, has Qimo been translated to many languages?
[02:57] <mhall119> it hasn't been much though
[02:57] <mhall119> Qimo picks up whatever translations Ubuntu has
[02:58] <Chloric> oh ok, so thats not an issue then
[02:58] <Chloric> I was considering using Qimo in my NGO initiative with your permission
[02:58] <mhall119> nope, we know that people have been using it, translated, all over the world
[02:59] <mhall119> you don't need permission, but we're happy to have it used anywhere
[03:00] <Chloric> oh ok, because its for a massive undertaking, and we're bringing your software to China for a massive workshop hosted by the Chinese government. Still give permission? xD
[03:01] <mhall119> yup
[03:01] <mhall119> I want kids in China to benefit as much as kids in the USA
[03:01] <mhall119> oddly, there is (or used to be) a city in China named "Qimo".
[03:01] <Chloric> oh ok, i wasnt sure it you wanted your name out there for government minders to see
[03:01] <mhall119> we get quite a bit of traffic to our website from China
[03:02] <mhall119> I don't plan on traveling to China any time soon, so I'm not concerned ;)
[03:03] <Chloric> oh ok, awesonme
[03:03] <Chloric> awesome**
[03:03] <Chloric> Is there any video demos of your OS?
[03:04] <mhall119> none that I've made, but there are some video reviews on YouTube
[03:06] <Chloric> hmmm ok, its for this workshop i'm hosting in Beijing
[03:31] <mhall119> you're hosting? cool
[03:40] <Chloric> yeah, my team and I
[03:40] <DammitJim>  hey Chloric !
[03:41] <Chloric> helloooooo =D
[03:42] <DammitJim> hey, tell me very simply... why do I want to make separate partitions manually?
[03:42] <Chloric> well... the beauty or hassle?
[03:43] <Chloric> xD
[03:43] <Chloric> of*
[03:43] <Chloric> the beauty of hassle
[03:43] <DammitJim> lol
[03:44] <Chloric> i manually partition so that if something goes wrong, at least i know where it went wrong
[03:44] <DammitJim> why does everyone say something goes wrong
[03:45] <Chloric> cuz... im humam, so im bound to screw up
[03:48] <Chloric> also, because im a social science student and my major is International Relations... not computers of any sort
[03:51] <mhall119> DammitJim: I like being able to do a clean install on a system partition, without it deleting all my personal files
[03:51] <DammitJim> can one create partitions if using LVM?
[15:22] <maxolase1squad> Anyone know how many CDs we are likely to get?  I'd like to get my hands on a few.  They've always been popular items at our food coop.
[15:26] <mhall119> itnet7 can tell you how many we've gotten in the past
[15:27] <mhall119> though with shipit being discontinued, who knows if that'll change
[15:29] <maxolase1squad> I may break down and pay for a few.
[15:29] <maxolase1squad> brb
[16:49] <Sr_ubuntu> How i can create one theme mouse from zero? GNOME.
[18:10] <DammitJim> what are the recommended sizes for partitions nowadays?
[18:17] <maxolasersquad> DammitJim: There are no "recommended" partition sizes.  It's whatever you need.
[18:17] <DammitJim> oh
[20:05] <mhall119> itnet7: ping
