valorie | hi again, Lancelot | 05:55 |
Lancelot | valorie: howdy | 06:01 |
Lancelot | what's up? | 06:01 |
valorie | not a whole lot | 06:01 |
valorie | recovering from a truly icky cold | 06:02 |
Lancelot | well at least you're recovering | 06:02 |
valorie | finishing listening to sessions from UDS last week | 06:02 |
valorie | in Budapest | 06:02 |
Lancelot | UDS? | 06:02 |
valorie | ubuntu developer summit | 06:03 |
valorie | they hold it once per cycle | 06:03 |
Lancelot | I see | 06:03 |
valorie | I went last time, to Orlando Florida | 06:03 |
Lancelot | i decided to put ubuntu server in a VM | 06:03 |
Lancelot | and I'm failing horribly at it | 06:03 |
valorie | but wasn't sponsored this time | 06:03 |
valorie | I've only set up a VM one time for testing purposes | 06:05 |
valorie | so I'm not the best person to ask | 06:06 |
Lancelot | hmm | 06:06 |
valorie | try #ubuntu ? | 06:06 |
Lancelot | I'm figuring it out bit by bit | 06:06 |
Lancelot | need to pick up a book on the shell | 06:06 |
MarkDude | Does Wa Team get books from Oreilly? | 06:32 |
MarkDude | They are good about sending books- Or will be getting some | 06:33 |
MarkDude | OR | 06:33 |
valorie | I've not heard about any | 06:33 |
valorie | review copies, you mean? | 06:33 |
Lancelot | good idea | 06:40 |
Lancelot | might be useful | 06:40 |
Lancelot | perhaps they would offer a discount to a LUG | 06:40 |
valorie | perhaps GSLUG is hooked up | 06:41 |
valorie | that I don't know | 06:41 |
valorie | and salt might be asleep | 06:41 |
valorie | he'd know | 06:41 |
Salt | hmm | 06:41 |
Salt | sleep? | 06:41 |
Salt | no, we don't do the o'reilly review | 06:41 |
Salt | s | 06:41 |
Salt | i wouldn't mind setting it up | 06:42 |
valorie | sleep is a unix command | 06:43 |
valorie | also, something some humans do nightly | 06:43 |
Lancelot | yup | 06:44 |
Lancelot | most do anyhow | 06:44 |
valorie | Salt is a bit of an.. outlier | 06:45 |
Lancelot | I see | 06:50 |
* valorie goes off to do some laundry | 06:55 | |
MarkDude | Sorry got distracted | 07:11 |
MarkDude | They will send free books as well as discounts | 07:12 |
MarkDude | It is harder to get new books, but they will give some- depepnding on the group | 07:13 |
MarkDude | getting Ebooks and books that have been out for a while is hella easy | 07:13 |
Lancelot | hmm | 07:16 |
MarkDude | i have an HTML5 book they gave GidgetKitchen a while ago- actually a good read | 07:23 |
MarkDude | A good way to keep them happy is do reviews | 07:23 |
Lancelot | not a bad idea | 07:23 |
MarkDude | Your area of interest limits the idea of negative reviews | 07:24 |
Lancelot | how so? | 07:24 |
MarkDude | 07:41 | |
MarkDude | They have books you can learn with | 07:41 |
MarkDude | its not subjective, the author of the html 5 | 07:42 |
MarkDude | book has humor he put into it- if you did not like the humor inthe book- go ahead and review it that way- you will still learn, and they are happy for a review | 07:43 |
MarkDude | It gets publicity- whether or not someone caresabout interjected humor- they are usually after the subject matter | 07:45 |
