[06:53] <MarkDude> Great geeknic today. Nice seeing everyone
[06:55] <sn9> indeed
[17:39] <BrightAmbition> hello?
[17:39] <MarkDude> hello BrightAmbition
[17:39] <pleia2> good morning
[17:39] <BrightAmbition> :)
[17:39]  * MarkDude posted pics from geeknic on FB
[17:40]  * MarkDude can post some on picasa later
[17:40] <BrightAmbition> k
[17:40] <MarkDude> Are we friends on FB?
[17:42] <BrightAmbition> I think so
[18:08] <jledbetter> MarkDude, BrightAmbitionNice meeting y'all yesterday and pleia2 great seeing you again :)
[18:08] <pleia2> jledbetter: you too!
[18:09] <MarkDude> Nice finally meeting you in person jledbetter - I wish I would have remembered the Google TV shirt I grabbed for you a while ago
[18:10] <jledbetter> MarkDude, Me too. Guess I'll have to make it to another geeknic or something ;)
[18:11] <jledbetter> pleia2, And got my commit in. Here's hoping for a tshirt! raar
[18:12] <akk> yay jledbetter
[18:12] <pleia2> jledbetter: me too!
[18:12] <akk> me too
[18:13] <jledbetter> akk, Awesome!
[18:13] <jledbetter> I brought my laptop to the geeknic in case there was coding since time was tight. But no laptops were out!
[18:13] <pleia2> hehe
[18:14] <pleia2> I brought mine too, but mostly that was so I could use it on BART on the ride over
[18:14] <akk> I had mine in the trunk at the south bay geeknic, but never went to get it.
[18:14] <akk> I do always bring one to Picnix, though, and usually use it a little.
[18:14] <MarkDude> Yep, the only times we have used them was to look at pics, or play music
[18:15] <akk> At the past picnix I helped somebody with ... I forget, but a newbie was trying to solve some hard problem so we were trying to find answers.
[18:17] <jledbetter> Cool beans
[18:54] <sn9> i'm not sure which person was jledbetter
[18:57] <akk> At in-person gatherings, we should wear nametags with IRC nicks and email addresses on them.
[18:57] <pleia2> yeah, I mentioned that yesterday when I met BrightAmbition "I'm Lyz" "hm" "pleia2" "oh!"
[18:57] <pleia2> :)
[18:57] <sn9> akk: linuxpicnic already does that
[18:59] <BrightAmbition> lol
[18:59] <BrightAmbition> Really?
[19:00] <akk> I don't remember doing that at linuxpicnic ... maybe I didn't RTFM. :)
[19:02] <MarkDude> akk- I agree
[19:03] <sn9> akk: it's always been in the rsvp form
[19:03] <jledbetter> sn9, I had a blue coexist shirt on
[19:03] <MarkDude> I want people to be able to meet
[19:03] <MarkDude> without forcing folks to do awkward meeting games
[19:03] <akk> I do remember seeing it in the rsvp form, just not on the nametags. Maybe I just don't remember.
[19:03] <sn9> jledbetter: i did not see such a shirt; i would have noticed one
[19:03] <pleia2> sn9: coexist for operating systems, lots of OS logos
[19:03] <sn9> akk: it was bigger than the name on the nametags
[19:04] <akk> MarkDude: Yes, since most of us are shy introverted geeks and not good at things like introductions. :)
[19:04] <sn9> pleia2: oh
[19:04] <akk> Reading nametags is much easier.
[19:04] <jledbetter> akk, +1
[19:04] <sn9> i thought that meant coexist like the bumper sticker
[19:04]  * MarkDude will see about making nametags for Vasona
[19:04] <jledbetter> I saw a pic on pleia2's flickr stream
[19:05] <MarkDude> If I can get battery - I have 120v inverter
[19:05] <MarkDude> To have a printer
[19:05] <MarkDude> Since RSVP will only work for some
[19:05] <pleia2> MarkDude: markers are fine :)
[19:05] <MarkDude> If that is too much
[19:05] <MarkDude> lol
[19:05] <MarkDude> Beat me to it
[19:05] <akk> Even without a printer, markers and a sign "please put your IRC nick too" works.
[19:05] <jledbetter> pleia2, Marker on forehead? Works for me
[19:05] <pleia2> printing any is too much work, even people who rsvp
[19:06]  * MarkDude wants Tuxwing the Penguin on my nametag
[19:06] <akk> Though printing some ahead of time helps make the RSVP people look cooler and more together. :)
[19:06] <pleia2> hehe
[19:06] <MarkDude> Good point akk
[19:06] <akk> "RSVP or you'll have to wear a hand-written badge and everybody will know you're a flake" :)
[19:06] <jledbetter> lol
[19:07] <MarkDude> Sorry you cant make it to the next one akk
[19:07] <MarkDude> And it will be done by MarkDude in his horrible handwriting
[19:07] <akk> oh, it did end up being the 14th? darn!
[19:07] <MarkDude> Yep
[19:07] <MarkDude> The earlier one would not work for me
[19:07] <pleia2> 16th
[19:07] <akk> right, 16th
[19:08] <MarkDude> Will you be at the *nix picnic?
[19:08] <akk> maybe -- when is it?
[19:08] <pleia2> august 27th
[19:09] <akk> argh, I think that's another week I won't be here
[19:10] <akk> (we're on call helping with a family medical problem -- not sure of the schedule yet but every 3 weeks is what we've been told so far)

[19:27]  * pleia2 didn't take many
[19:38] <jledbetter> pleia2, More than I did. Now to tag everyone lolz
[19:40] <pleia2> I wanted to finish the events part of the approval app today, but the ubuntu wiki is unusable :(
[19:40] <pleia2> it sometimes loads pages, haven't been able to save and edit in over 2 hours
[19:40] <sn9> was jledbetter the one who completely lost it at eps?
[19:41] <pleia2> I've never seen her completely lose it with anyone :P
[19:41] <pleia2> so I doubt it
[19:41] <pleia2> jledbetter is a nice, friendly person!
[19:42]  * pleia2 off to clean her office
[19:46] <sn9> i'd need to see more pics to remember for sure
[19:47] <sn9> it was well after you left, btw
[20:00] <MarkDude> Nope- that was Sara
[20:00] <MarkDude> She was not stoked at all
[20:00] <MarkDude> Sumthin happened with him - sara and her BF Colin
[20:30] <sn9> oh, right
[20:31] <sn9> classic geekclash
[20:32] <MarkDude> Yes, well Colin is like head of security
[20:32] <MarkDude> Because if we had any hassles, not to sterotype geeks
[20:33] <MarkDude> But minus Norm, us as a group would be hard pressed to deal with a drunken group nearby
[22:40]  * BrightAmbition likes the name Colin
[22:40] <BrightAmbition> Sorry, he just has a nice name
