akgraneremail 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 vote00:30
rwwwe 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 candidates00:32
pleia2same number of candidates as last year00:34
rwwI know, I thought the same thing then ;)00:35
pleia2me too00:35
jledbetterDitto. Was hoping more would join after I did :)00:36
jledbetterThough, at least we had more than the slots.00:40
MichelleQSigh... email fail.  akgraner, would you PM me the poll invite?00:54
akgranerMichelleQ, email sent...00:57
akgranersince 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
MichelleQI've updated my LP acct., too, so it's got a valid address now01:11
MichelleQthough it appears, for some reason, that I'm not actually on the UW LP team.01:13
MichelleQ:-/01:13
* MichelleQ does something about that01:13
MichelleQpleia2: thanks.  :-)01:16
pleia2sure01:16
MichelleQI swear I did that once upon a time.  Oh well.01:18
pleia2yeah, I thought you were on there with the -qimo name01:19
pleia2but it doesn't show such a name in past users01:19
* pleia2 shrugs01:19
MichelleQdunno.  Oh well.  I'm there now. :-)01:20
pleia2:)01:21
* MichelleQ takes over world, one committee at a time01:22
akgranertoo funny....weren't you there before?  As I have your name from the first election01:23
MichelleQIt seems as though launchpad ate my U-W membership at some point.01:24
akgranerjust out of curiosity I checked the list from the first election...01:24
akgranerglad 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
MichelleQI think, perhaps, I should commence drinking.  This isn't the strangest thing that's happened to me today.01:25
MichelleQakgraner: yeah, don't start cleaning this late at night- it will lead to something like hard drive replacement for giggles.01:26
akgranerhey I just learned I can choose between KVM and VirtualBox  in test drive on my new laptop...01:28
akgraneron the old one I could only use VirtualBox...01:28
akgraneryay for new knowledge....01:28
MichelleQyay for choices!01:28
akgraneryeah 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 prefer01:30
MichelleQI need to start building towers for Christmas... it's going to take me three months to get them all built.01:32
pleia2kvm is faster because it's hardware-based virtualization, but it has a learning curve01:32
pleia2virtualbox is clicky clicky happy easy :)01:32
pleia2(I use them both, admittedly using virtualbox when I need something real quick)01:33
akgranergotcha01:33
akgranerI think my Dell hardware was just too old to use the KVM option01:33
pleia2yeah01:33
pleia2if your machine is less than 2 years old you have a decent chance of having virtualization, older than that it's unlikely01:34
akgranerbut 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
akgranernot that I thought the kids and Pete would give me their machines willingly....01:35
pleia2lol01:35
MichelleQROFL01:35
akgranerThough 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 it01:37
elkylol01:37
MichelleQbwahahah!01:37
elkyyou've taught them too much!01:37
elkySadly, they're not like cassettes, you can't just rewind them and pretend it never happened :P01:38
akgranerI know...it's a bit bittersweet...:-/01:38
MichelleQI don't suppose they'd believe the Computer Fairies stole them, either, huh?01:39
akgranersadly no....01:39
akgranerbut I thought about using the "I'm your mother that's why!" But that's only the break glass for emergency use...01:40
MichelleQhahaha, I had to break that one out the other day01:40
akgranerb/c they say - "You'll always be our mother" insert eye rolls....01:41
MichelleQI got "Mommy, that's not a good enough reason."01:41
akgranerI have also gotten, "That's not a very good counterpoint, you don't debate well!"01:42
MichelleQYour children are my children in five years.  This scares me.01:43
pleia2hehe01:43
akgranerOh 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...:-/  oops01:44
Cheri703I didn't like that answer either...01:44
Cheri703I 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 it01:44
MichelleQNo, son, "because I want to!" is not a valid argument.01:45
akgranerI 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
pleia2lol01:45
pleia2man, kids are such trolls :)01:46
MichelleQpretty much01:46
akgranernods01:46
akgranerthey have great teachers :-P01:46
MichelleQAbsolutely!01:46
* MichelleQ trolls 'em back01:47
akgranersame here :-)01:47
akgranergotta run - email or PM me if there is an issue with the voting  - laters all01:49
pleia2later akgraner01:49
