[00:27]  * cyphermox hands a beer to dscassel
[00:29] <dscassel> :D
[00:29] <dscassel> Thanks, cyphermox
[02:24] <billybigrigger> how'
[02:24] <billybigrigger> s everyone tonight, idle as per usual?
[03:32] <dscassel> billybigrigger: Yup, pretty much. :)
[03:33] <billybigrigger> dscassel, sup man, long time no see
[03:33] <billybigrigger> see
[03:34] <dscassel> Hey, billybigrigger.  Not much.
[03:34] <dscassel> I did get my Ubuntu membership tonight... :D
[03:35] <billybigrigger> nice! good job bud!
[03:35] <billybigrigger> 3 cheers for dscassel! hip hip horray! :P
[03:35] <dscassel> :D
[03:35] <billybigrigger> wish i could say the same, i've lost way too much involvement in it though :(
[03:36] <billybigrigger> but fuck looking at .10 alpha 3 so far, my good this is the worst alpha i've seen, ever i think :(
[03:37] <dscassel> Yeah, I haven't had a lot of luck myself.
[03:38] <billybigrigger> desktop with nvidia, or laptop with ati, both are just crashing left right and center!
[03:39] <billybigrigger> hah
[03:39] <billybigrigger> i just found 2 cherries that look like a nut sack
[03:39] <billybigrigger> a mutant cherry haha that made my day :P
[03:40] <dscassel> Heh. :)
[03:42] <billybigrigger> is it just me or did -ca and +1 always seem a bit more lively?
[03:51] <dscassel> You mean a couple years ago?
[03:52] <dscassel> It's been kinda like this for a while.
[03:52] <billybigrigger> yeah
[03:52] <billybigrigger> thats sad really
[03:52] <dscassel> I only really started idling in here last year.
[03:53] <billybigrigger> idling must be the cool thing to do lately eh? :P
[03:53] <dscassel> I've tried to get a few Ubuntu people here in town on the channel, but so fare it's just me, Bob and txwikinger regularly.
[03:54] <dscassel> (which, really, is the core of the local Ubuntu group, really)
[03:54] <billybigrigger> well i think the numbers are up from last time i visited here regularly, it was around 19-21, now its up to almost 30 :P
[03:55] <dscassel> We do get some okay numbers out for meetings, but that's because I poke everybody first.
[03:59] <dscassel> There's probably more we could do to drum up interest. I have my hands full with other projects...
[11:18] <BluesKaj> Hiyas
[12:48] <IdleOne> dscassel: congrats on getting membership ;0
[12:49] <IdleOne> :)
[13:23] <dscassel> Thanks, IdleOne :D
[13:24] <IdleOne> next question, why are you not wearing your cloak?
[13:24] <dscassel> IRC confuses and perplexes me.
[13:24] <dscassel> Also, lazy. :D
[13:24] <IdleOne> hehe
[13:25] <IdleOne> join #ubuntu-irc , link to your LP page and ask nicely to be granted your ubuntu cloak
[13:25] <IdleOne> everythiung else will be automagic when you identify to nickserv
[13:25] <IdleOne> everything*
[13:26] <dscassel> Okay, cool.
[13:38] <BluesKaj> or #freenode
[13:52] <IdleOne> no, #ubuntu-irc a GC has to ask staff to enable it.
[13:52] <IdleOne> if you ask in # freenode they will send you to #ubuntu-irc
[13:55] <BluesKaj> really IdleOne , must be a change since I cloaked
[13:56] <IdleOne> you don't an @ubuntu/member cloak
[13:56] <IdleOne> have*
[13:57] <IdleOne> ah, but you joined just after I congratulated dscassel on getting ubuntu membership. so yeah, you would be right about asking in #freenode for an unaffiliated cloak.
[13:58] <IdleOne> project cloaks requires a Group Contact to approve it.
[13:59]  * BluesKaj has no desire to be a member ...been thru the membership trip with other organizations in my working life
[14:11] <dscassel> BluesKaj: I was like "Meh, I don't need to bother" for a long time...
[14:11] <dscassel> But getting on the Planet means having a voice in the community. And being a member gives a bit of added legitimacy (things like business cards) outside the community.
[14:12] <BluesKaj> dscassel, I'm old and retired , so my ambition in certain areas is retired as well :)
[14:15] <dscassel> Fair enough. :)
[14:17] <dscassel> I'm planning on talking at FSOSS in October and wanted to be able to hand out business cards as LoCo Contact.
[14:17] <BluesKaj> dscassel, is you membership official now ?
[14:17] <dscassel> And aside from txwikinger, nobody's talking about the stuff going on around here on the planet.
[14:17] <dscassel> Yup. :)
[14:18] <BluesKaj> cool, congratulations ! :)
[14:18] <dscassel> Thanks. :)
[14:19] <BluesKaj> we need more canucks there
[14:19] <dscassel> Yeah. :D
[14:22] <bregma> BluesKaj, all the cool kids are trying Ubuntu membership
[14:22] <bregma> just try it once
[14:22] <bregma> you could quit any time
[14:23] <txwikinger> What's going on on the planet?
[14:23]  * txwikinger wonders if he should blog about dscassel's Ubuntu membership
[14:23] <BluesKaj> I'm not a cool kid , just an old guy who plays the odd gig , now and then
[14:24] <txwikinger> bregma: I have Ubuntu and Kubuntu membership for years
[14:33] <dscassel> txwikinger: Not much is going on, except I'm going to be joining.
[14:34] <dscassel> :D
[14:34] <dscassel> They're using bzr to set it up now.  Cool. :D
[14:35] <dscassel> And I'm glad they don't ask for a disembodied and drop-shadowed head anymore.
[14:40] <txwikinger> dscassel: joining what?
[14:40] <txwikinger> I never submitted any head
[14:40] <txwikinger> Ah the planet
[14:41]  * txwikinger needs something to wake him up. Worked to long into the night again
[14:41] <txwikinger> +o
[14:42] <dscassel> Where's genii-around when you need him...
[14:42] <dscassel> (he has coffee. :)
[14:55]  * txwikinger does not drink any coffee -> dscassel
[14:59] <IdleOne> scotch?
[14:59] <IdleOne> genii has that too
[15:25] <txwikinger> scotch? Well, I can get that from Riddell anyday ;)
[15:34]  * txwikinger wonders if scotch is really so efficient in waking him up. Might have the opposite effect
[16:24] <willwh> txwikinger: speaking as a Scot - no, it's terrible for waking you up in the morning
[16:24] <willwh> ahahaha
[22:14] <khoover> anyone here use chatzilla, and found that the latest firefox update broke it?
[23:45] <willwh> khoover: can't say I do.
