| akgraner | poll started :-) | 00:13 |
|---|---|---|
| akgraner | everyone should be getting emails within the hour...:-) | 00:13 |
| akgraner | 267 voters authorized :-) | 00:15 |
| pleia2 | thanks akgraner! | 00:16 |
| nigelb | .. and voted. | 00:16 |
| akgraner | pleia2, yw! Good Luck to everyone! | 00:17 |
| akgraner | sending email to the mailing list now | 00:17 |
| akgraner | email to list sent - if anyone is a team member (via LP) with no public email address listed in LP and did not receive a Poll invite please contact me so I can send you the invite to vote | 00:30 |
| rww | we need to get more candidates for next time around. voting for 4 people for 3 positions always feels like I'm leaving someone out, even though I love all the candidates | 00:32 |
| pleia2 | same number of candidates as last year | 00:34 |
| rww | I know, I thought the same thing then ;) | 00:35 |
| pleia2 | me too | 00:35 |
| jledbetter | Ditto. Was hoping more would join after I did :) | 00:36 |
| jledbetter | Though, at least we had more than the slots. | 00:40 |
| MichelleQ | Sigh... email fail. akgraner, would you PM me the poll invite? | 00:54 |
| akgraner | MichelleQ, email sent... | 00:57 |
| akgraner | since the poll is not a public poll but limited to the UW LP team members I have to manually add the email addresses.. | 00:58 |
| MichelleQ | I've updated my LP acct., too, so it's got a valid address now | 01:11 |
| MichelleQ | though it appears, for some reason, that I'm not actually on the UW LP team. | 01:13 |
| MichelleQ | :-/ | 01:13 |
| * MichelleQ does something about that | 01:13 | |
| MichelleQ | pleia2: thanks. :-) | 01:16 |
| pleia2 | sure | 01:16 |
| MichelleQ | I swear I did that once upon a time. Oh well. | 01:18 |
| pleia2 | yeah, I thought you were on there with the -qimo name | 01:19 |
| pleia2 | but it doesn't show such a name in past users | 01:19 |
| * pleia2 shrugs | 01:19 | |
| MichelleQ | dunno. Oh well. I'm there now. :-) | 01:20 |
| pleia2 | :) | 01:21 |
| * MichelleQ takes over world, one committee at a time | 01:22 | |
| akgraner | too funny....weren't you there before? As I have your name from the first election | 01:23 |
| MichelleQ | It seems as though launchpad ate my U-W membership at some point. | 01:24 |
| akgraner | just out of curiosity I checked the list from the first election... | 01:24 |
| akgraner | glad I kept it...:-) though I am not sure why.... Had to remember the pw I assigned to the file...jeez I need to clean up my home folder, but not tonight.... | 01:25 |
| MichelleQ | I think, perhaps, I should commence drinking. This isn't the strangest thing that's happened to me today. | 01:25 |
| MichelleQ | akgraner: yeah, don't start cleaning this late at night- it will lead to something like hard drive replacement for giggles. | 01:26 |
| akgraner | hey I just learned I can choose between KVM and VirtualBox in test drive on my new laptop... | 01:28 |
| akgraner | on the old one I could only use VirtualBox... | 01:28 |
| akgraner | yay for new knowledge.... | 01:28 |
| MichelleQ | yay for choices! | 01:28 |
| akgraner | yeah the other machine couldn't do KVM... - not that I understand why one is better than the other (YET) but I am sure by the end of the week I'll know which I prefer | 01:30 |
| MichelleQ | I need to start building towers for Christmas... it's going to take me three months to get them all built. | 01:32 |
| pleia2 | kvm is faster because it's hardware-based virtualization, but it has a learning curve | 01:32 |
| pleia2 | virtualbox is clicky clicky happy easy :) | 01:32 |
| pleia2 | (I use them both, admittedly using virtualbox when I need something real quick) | 01:33 |
| akgraner | gotcha | 01:33 |
| akgraner | I think my Dell hardware was just too old to use the KVM option | 01:33 |
| pleia2 | yeah | 01:33 |
| pleia2 | if your machine is less than 2 years old you have a decent chance of having virtualization, older than that it's unlikely | 01:34 |
| akgraner | but I still prefer actual hardware to install things on....vs VM however my hopes of my own test lab were dashed today :-( | 01:34 |
| MichelleQ | :( | 01:35 |
| akgraner | not that I thought the kids and Pete would give me their machines willingly.... | 01:35 |
| pleia2 | lol | 01:35 |
| MichelleQ | ROFL | 01:35 |
| akgraner | Though I thought about telling the kids there was a critical update I needed to fix, but they know how to update their own machines so that wouldn't work...but I did think about it | 01:37 |
| elky | lol | 01:37 |
| MichelleQ | bwahahah! | 01:37 |
| elky | you've taught them too much! | 01:37 |
| elky | Sadly, they're not like cassettes, you can't just rewind them and pretend it never happened :P | 01:38 |
| akgraner | I know...it's a bit bittersweet...:-/ | 01:38 |
| MichelleQ | I don't suppose they'd believe the Computer Fairies stole them, either, huh? | 01:39 |
| akgraner | sadly no.... | 01:39 |
| akgraner | but I thought about using the "I'm your mother that's why!" But that's only the break glass for emergency use... | 01:40 |
| MichelleQ | hahaha, I had to break that one out the other day | 01:40 |
| akgraner | b/c they say - "You'll always be our mother" insert eye rolls.... | 01:41 |
| MichelleQ | I got "Mommy, that's not a good enough reason." | 01:41 |
| akgraner | I have also gotten, "That's not a very good counterpoint, you don't debate well!" | 01:42 |
| MichelleQ | Your children are my children in five years. This scares me. | 01:43 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 01:43 |
| akgraner | Oh the conversations between kids and their parents...we encourage critical thinking and backing up your arguments - it never occurred to me they would use such logic on me...:-/ oops | 01:44 |
| Cheri703 | I didn't like that answer either... | 01:44 |
| Cheri703 | I have always been a "explain the logic behind your request and I'm more likely to go along with it, whether I agree or not" I just want to know that there is a reason for it | 01:44 |
| MichelleQ | No, son, "because I want to!" is not a valid argument. | 01:45 |
| akgraner | I once told my daughter stop running in the house - she was 3 or 4 at the time - she stopped and said "I'm not running I am scampering" I then had to say if you are doing anything other than walking you are wrong... | 01:45 |
| pleia2 | lol | 01:45 |
| pleia2 | man, kids are such trolls :) | 01:46 |
| MichelleQ | pretty much | 01:46 |
| akgraner | nods | 01:46 |
| akgraner | they have great teachers :-P | 01:46 |
| MichelleQ | Absolutely! | 01:46 |
| * MichelleQ trolls 'em back | 01:47 | |
| akgraner | same here :-) | 01:47 |
| akgraner | gotta run - email or PM me if there is an issue with the voting - laters all | 01:49 |
| pleia2 | later akgraner | 01:49 |
| akgraner | out of 268 email address I sent voting keys to - 10 of them could not be delivered. If you feel that your email address listed in LP may be one of the 10 please contact me. Thanks! :-) | 12:31 |
