[03:43] <jacen> hello!
[03:44] <kevin6888296> hey jacen
[03:44] <jacen> I had a quick question about the group
[03:44] <jacen> I've been using ubuntu for a while on and off and I heard about these groups
[03:44] <jacen> I havnt read anything about a sacramento group though
[03:45] <jacen> have I just not looked hard enough or is there not one
[03:46] <jacen> so yea, anyone know anything on the subject?
[03:47] <akk> I don't think I've seen anything here about Sacramento.
[03:47] <akk> Though there's LUGOD, Linux Users Group of Davis, which is very active.
[03:47] <jacen> Were too cool for davis :P
[03:48] <jacen> + I hear Miss Nixie Pixel lives in sacramento now *sly smile*
[03:48] <akk> LUGOD is always having great meeting topics I wish weren't 2.5 hours away.
[03:49] <jacen> Okay, thanks for the information Mr. akk
[03:49] <kevin6888296> jacen: you may have to start it.  there really isn't a decent Los Angeles team either, at least not yet
[03:49] <akk> jacen: Ms, and you're welcome.
[03:50] <jacen> Oh! I'm sorry >.<
[03:50] <jacen> and Keven, I will consider it, especially with 11.04 coming
[03:51] <jacen> I think if I got Nixie pixel to party up for it we could get her to broadcast it and get a bunch of people to come
[03:52]  * kevin6888296 blinks
[03:53] <jacen> nixie pixel is a rather popular gamer/ubuntu geek with a large youtube following
[03:56] <kevin6888296> ah
[03:56] <kevin6888296> i wonder if i could get a following on youtube if my camera worked
[03:56] <kevin6888296> hmmm, it works in bigbluebutton.org
[03:57] <kevin6888296> maybe there's a bug in cheese or some dependency thereof
[03:57] <kevin6888296> or perhaps i should be using some other program
[03:57] <kevin6888296> i have one video on my youtube channel, my first one
[03:57] <kevin6888296> kind of...weird
[03:57] <kevin6888296> how things work and then suddenly stop
[03:57] <kevin6888296> anyway
[03:57]  * kevin6888296 wanders off
[17:20] <MarkDude> http://arrbee.wordpress.com/2011/04/07/what-did-i-miss-here/#comments << akk
[17:22] <akk> Thanks, MarkDude -- same confusion as I had.
[17:23] <akk> (I still don't associate "beefy" with hot dogs, so even with the explanation at the end it still seems a bit weird to me.)
[17:23] <MarkDude> Well apparently Runa has common sense- so I figured the answer was close
[17:24] <MarkDude> Well it is also associated with bacon in a weird way, I am assuming the Jono type
[17:24] <MarkDude> http://beefymiracle.org/history.html
[17:24] <akk> Beef is associated with bacon?
[17:24] <MarkDude> The 1st answer is better then the official history
[17:25] <MarkDude> the last few releases bacon has been put forth as a name
[17:25] <MarkDude> the reason it is rejected is due to the existence of Jono
[17:26] <MarkDude> RH legal WONT allow bacon as a name- even tho it has been put forth for a few years
[17:26] <MarkDude> Its  bit much now, FEdora planet is covered with beefy Miracle references
[17:28] <MarkDude> well at least Ubuntu and Fedora can drop any air of superiority with the naming thing- Oneric and beefy- similar silliness - IMHO
[17:28]  * MarkDude just figured you would enjoy Runa's question
[17:29] <akk> Definitely, thanks.
[17:29] <akk> It's nice to know that I'm not the only one who finds it baffling.
[17:29] <akk> (Though I do totally get the desire to come up with a wonky silly codename -- that part isn't baffling.)
[17:36] <MarkDude> Well I am glad they shot down my name suggestion codpiece :)
[17:36] <akk> uh, yeah :)
[17:36] <MarkDude> Common sense prevailed there at least
[17:36] <akk> (or, worse, using that as the logo for BM)
[17:36] <MarkDude> The goal was to come up with the worst name possible
[17:36] <MarkDude> rofl
[17:36] <akk> and btw, about the fact that the codename abbreviates to BM ...
[17:36] <MarkDude> Yep
[17:37] <MarkDude> BM jokes abound
[17:37] <akk> I had a feeling I wasn't the first to discover that. :)
[17:37] <MarkDude> I think RH legal wanted to object for that reason- realized they would look foolish- so they blinked 1st
[17:37] <akk> Well, there's always the corporate tie-in. You know,
[17:38] <akk> IBM, UBM, we all BM for IBM
[17:38]  * MarkDude is stealing that akk
[17:38] <akk> I stole it from an old book, "The Adolescence of P-1"
[17:39]  * MarkDude also installed the Beefy Miracle remix - now my grub list has Ubuntu, Fedora, Puppy and Beefy Miracle
[17:39] <akk> I wanted to name my latest talk (on patents) "IP, UP, we all P for IP" but decided it wouldn't fly.
[17:40] <MarkDude> Well did you hear the name akgraner and rbergeron picked for their talk?
[17:40] <akk> no
[17:40] <MarkDude> They received a bit of consternation
[17:40] <MarkDude> Two girls - one talk
[17:40] <akk> oh, yeah, I did hear that
[17:40] <akk> and some of the criticism of it
[17:41]  * MarkDude has luckily avoided seeing the video that references
[17:41] <MarkDude> It was changed for some material- not ALL of it tho
[17:41] <MarkDude> Robyn is big on shock value
[17:42] <MarkDude> akgraner, just has a funny sense of humor
[23:14] <jdeslip> Good afternoon everyone
