[01:20] can someone help me make a wiki for a ubuntu hour i'm gonna have next week [01:21] a loco directory entry? [01:21] first go here and log in: http://loco.ubuntu.com/ [01:22] (it uses launchpad) [01:23] once you've logged in you should see a "My Teams" link at the top [01:23] under Ubuntu California there is an Events subheading and a "+ new event" link [01:24] it should be pretty straight forward from there, I need to run downstairs for a mingling with neighbors in the lobby thing in a minute [01:25] alright. no worries! this looks easy [01:33] can i edit once i made it, I messed up the time. the dang utc got me once again [01:34] nvm i see i [01:34] t [01:38] in events the venue is what sets the time zone [01:38] so set the time zone for the panera bread [01:40] we don't want UTC showing up in event listing, it confuses everyone :) [01:40] * pleia2 heads out [01:41] its there, ill look into fixing it. [02:06] jtatum: pleia2: i'm not at SJ Ubuntu Hour tonight - too exhausted after moving storage stuff all day. [02:07] i never scheduled it anyway [02:08] pleia2 or anyone know whats up w the calender??? [02:09] aaditya are you back from your trip? [02:37] Brendan el gato.says hi! [03:10] would you guys think it is worth enabling ipv6 in my network or is ipv4 just fine for now? [03:38] gonna have to do it at some point, may as well do it now if it's plausible for your network [03:47] philipballew: you just need to go into the venue and set a time zone [03:47] Kinda depends on what sort of network, and how it connects to the outside world, no? [03:48] (I can do it if you need) [03:49] http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/venues/United%20States/507/detail/ and "Edit Venue Details" [03:49] nuboon2age: what calendar? what's the problem with it? [03:51] no one mentioned anything about an SJ ubuntu hour tonight [04:20] sn9, http://exiledintejas.com/post/7458079599/nyan-cat-white-board [04:21] Meow [04:21] I finally watched that original video today [04:21] it was... nyan cat [04:21] There is a timer one- to see how long you can listen [04:24] yup, http://nyan.cat/ [04:29] Nyan cat is a good meme [04:29] With more life than another funny one- magnets- how do they work? [04:32] El Fua http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/el-fua [04:33] The meme infecting South America [04:34] Happy birthday jledbetter [04:35] oh no, enough memes here, I don't need to know about those on other continents! [04:39] i just pasted the whiteboard link to you-know-who [04:42] philipballew: around? [04:42] yes [04:42] pleia2, [04:42] ok, go here: http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/venues/United%20States/507/update/ [04:42] i am here [04:43] what do i need to do? [04:43] timezone is currently set to UTC, change it to US/Pacific [04:43] then no one has to worry about figuring out UTC time [04:44] whats the reason utc is the standard? [04:44] it's just the default [04:45] isle of man, too [04:46] can i change it from 24 hour to 12 hour format [04:46] UTC is "Coordinated Universal Time" (obviously not english :)), so it makes sense for it to be the default [04:46] no, it's all in 24 hour format [04:46] sn9, anytime work best for you to come the a ubuntu hour? [04:46] the US is kinda strange for having 12 hour clocks :\ [04:47] pleia2, but it works for us [04:47] barely [04:47] speak for yourself! all my clocks are 24 hour :) [04:47] * rww is part of the 24-hour-and-metric illuminati [04:47] my poor human brain does not grok metric, but I support it :D [04:47] pleia2, im quite happy with my miles and my 12 hours! [04:47] i also write dates as yyyy-mm-dd [04:48] always have to be careful of that on forms when traveling [04:48] us crazy americans getting month and day all mixed up :) [04:48] philipballew: 110% up in the air right now [04:49] no worries. ill just put it sometime and see if you can stop by [04:49] MM-DD-YYYY really makes no sense [04:49] who started it i wonder [04:49] DD-MM-YYYY HH:MM:SS doesn't really either :( [04:50] indeed [04:50] philipballew: loco directory entry looks great, thanks for fixing that :) [04:50] now that the venue is in the system you just select it from the list for the next one (or copy the event and change the date - that's what I do for SF hours) [04:51] * pleia2 made them add the "copy event" feature ;) [04:51] pleia2, Ill just send out an email tonight [04:51] woohoo [04:52] I am trying to get people to come who are not on the mailing list as well. figure thats how things grow [04:52] * pleia2 nods [05:08] pleia2: it was a beautiful 20 degrees Celsius today. [05:09] perfect weather! [05:10] I know 3 celcius temperatures: 0 is freezing, 20 is perfect, 40 is very hot :) [05:11] pleia2: for your body, 37 is just right. :) [05:11] good to know [05:11] pleia2: here's a handy conversion chart: http://xkcd.com/526/ [05:11] its 78 in auburn here today. hasnt been bellow 90 is a while. now its great! [05:12] nhaines: haha, nice [05:12] it was in the 50s and cloudy here, ah july in SF [05:14] pleia2, any chance of sending that weather east a few miles? [05:15] I'll tell my cat, she controls the weather [05:15] pleia2: so now you'll know that 110 kph is the Interstate speed limit, and 130kph is the speed you *actually* go when it says "65". [05:15] Also I meant 120 kph and this font is tiny on Windows. [05:15] signs in maine have km on them too, so I have distance down ok (which was useful when I was driving in canada) [05:15] still, it was fun to be all wooo I'm going 110! [05:16] I went 135kph on the Autobahn. I wasn't especially impressed. :) [05:16] hehe [05:16] well, I was driving an economy rental... [05:17] I think I had a Volkswagen Golf 3. [05:29] wait, I'm not supposed to be going 135kph on interstates? [06:11] pleia2: right no one mentioned it because i nevrr scheduled it on the event calendar, as i said. But i had written on the ubuntu hour project page that its the second Thu each month. [06:12] plia2: when i went to look for the event calendar i couldnt find it. [07:04] That reminds me. When I talk about how to run an Ubuntu Hour next week I'll mention how important it is to set a consistant schedule and carry through on commitments. [18:05] I'm lookin for a new search engine. any recommendations? [18:09] Duckduckgo [18:09] decent [18:09] Bing does not suck that much, tbh [18:10] it sounds like he's trying to get away from google, not use a google clone :) [18:10] google is annoying me. im set my homepage to yahoo and switched from chrome to firefox today [18:11] getting annoyed at google trying to have me use them for all my computing needs. plus firefox is more open [18:11] i have used duck duck go. its really nice [18:11] its probably just what your used to [18:27] Firefox is "more open"? [18:28] I'd agree when compared to chrome (not chromium) [18:28] * jledbetter <3s mozilla [18:29] pleia2, Google and floss have a very interesting relationship. [18:29] indeed [18:30] https://plus.google.com/105095769731159704550/posts?hl=en << gato poderoso [18:31] in some ways there open source, but with there apps like earth and sketch up. there not. makes me wonder their motive [18:31] not uncommon for companies to offer both closed and open source products [18:31] canonical does too [18:31] but some question their motives as well [18:32] philipballew: they bought Google Earth and Sketchup. [18:32] (even launchpad itself was closed source for several years!) [18:32] nhaines, this is true. i liked sketchup before it was bought. [18:33] nhaines, this is true. i liked sketchup before it was bought. [18:33] Google becomes Skynet, by taking pieces we like, IMHO [18:34] And also running on Apple hardware [18:34] NO! not launchpad! haha. ubuntu isnt always the most liked linux based os by other linux users for those reasons [18:34] haha MarkDude [19:25] * MarkDude 's original penguin suit is getting much love in South America http://galeria.cnsl.org.ve/2011/07-lara/131.html [19:25] hehe, awesome [19:27] I was hoping Tatica would be able to make it to CLS this year- but nogo, maybe next [20:58] pleia2: I guess next week will be fun. :) [20:59] hope so :)
