[00:05] <jono> paultag, any chance you could add those feeds now?
[00:05] <jono> just ready for the global jam :-)
[00:07] <paultag> jono: I'll do it by EOD, but I'm a bit swamped atm
[00:07] <jono> paultag, thanks, pal!
[00:07] <paultag> sure thing
[00:15]  * jono wraps up the membership survey report
[00:15] <jcastro> HEY PAULTAG
[00:16] <paultag> jcastro: HEY GEORGE
[00:16] <jcastro> man the AMA ended up being pretty awesome
[00:17] <paultag> jcastro: :)
[00:17] <paultag> mhall119: How smart is the LD planet?
[00:18] <paultag> mhall119: I was just pulling up links in the background, and ubuntu-ca looks to have randal's feed in it - if I add randal's feed, it'll bork, yes?
[00:18] <mhall119> not very
[00:18] <mhall119> if by "bork" you mean "display duplicates", then maybe
[00:18] <paultag> mhall119: so it'd be sane to reject randal's for reason that it's included indirectly?
[00:20] <mhall119> I would think so, yeah
[00:20] <paultag> mhall119: ok, thanks
[00:20] <jcastro> "Any plans to make Unity more themeable? That's my biggest gripe with it right now, and I'm sure a lot of users feel the same."
[00:20] <mhall119> I mean, I could have it check for duplicate uid, but there's no gurantee that 2 distinct blogs won't use the same uid
[00:20] <jcastro> he should just set a wallpaper
[00:21] <paultag> jcastro: can I quote that ;)
[00:21] <jono> jcastro, hey
[00:21] <mhall119> I hear that gripe a lot, but really, I don't *see* unity 95% of the time, wasn't that the whole point of it?
[00:21] <paultag> mhall119: yeah. I'm not so sure that's something we should care about
[00:21] <jono> jcastro, want to hear something that will make you kill yourself?
[00:21] <jono> jcastro, http://www.noisecreep.com/2011/09/02/axel-rudi-pell-holy-diver-song/
[00:21] <jcastro> mhall119: well, if you like red corvettes let's say, and you set a red corvette wallpaper, your unity will look .... wait for it ..... red.
[00:21] <jcastro> jono: looking
[00:22] <mhall119> jcastro: what happens if you put a screenshot of Unity as your wallpaper?
[00:22] <jcastro> jono: one of those nu metal bands does a dio cover that makes me want to kill myself
[00:22] <jcastro> mhall119: don't do that. space/time continum, etc.
[00:22] <jcastro> jono: man dude, this is pretty awesome
[00:22] <jcastro> (being serious)
[00:22] <mhall119> yeah, I found that out about 2 hours from now
[00:23] <jcastro> jono: I envision when I get old, sitting in Vegas with some lounge singer singing this.
[00:23] <jcastro> wondering what happened to my life, etc.
[00:23] <jcastro> like that Nicholas Cage movie
[00:23] <jcastro> jono: guess what I heard on the radio today
[00:24] <jcastro> Mercyful Fate!
[00:24] <jcastro> it came on and I looked at Jill and was like "wait until you hear this guy's voice."
[00:24] <jcastro> then it hit her like a ton of bricks, lol
[00:24] <jcastro> hmm, I wonder if they have a best of CD.
[00:25] <jcastro> I can see myself getting that, but nothing more than just that.
[00:25] <jono> jcastro, we can't be friends anymore
[00:25] <jono> jcastro, it is not a patch on this monstrosity - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c15yM77xkP4
[00:26] <jcastro> ok this one's a bit too much
[00:26] <jono> a bit?
[00:26] <jono> I punched a hole in my monitor
[00:26] <jono> lo
[00:26] <jono> lol
[00:26] <jcastro> oh god
[00:26] <jcastro> is that a guitar?
[00:26] <jcastro> it sounds like they want to be NIN
[00:27] <jcastro> wow, this is horrible
[00:27] <jono> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpl5mOAXNl4
[00:27] <jcastro> oh yes, found it
[00:27] <jcastro> mercyful fate does have a best of
[00:29] <jcastro> don't touch! never ever steal!
[00:29] <jcastro> unless, you're in for the kill!
[00:29] <jcastro> you've been caught, by the curse of the pharoah oh ....
[00:29] <jcastro> chugga chugga
[00:33] <mhall119> choo choo
[00:35] <jcastro> hmm, King Diamond also has a "Best of" Album.
[00:35] <jcastro> Come on, really dude. You have like 2 good songs, tops.
[00:37] <paultag> jono: mhall119: feeds done. I just did them over a snack. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoPortalFeeds#preview <- there's a report in the added column in what was done
[00:37] <paultag> All were approved except Randal's, since it's there via CA
[00:41] <jcastro> ugh, I hate impulse music buys, I already want to strangle this guy
[00:41] <jcastro> jono: you should have interveened
[00:41] <jcastro> hmm, at least the rest of the band knows how to jam
[00:44] <paultag> hunh, it works.
[00:44] <paultag> clever
[00:44] <jcastro> good, I hate that guy

[01:01] <paultag> back to fighting the never-ending battle for better softwar
[01:01] <paultag> e
[01:13] <akgraner> jono does Canonical have training aides for teaching Ubuntu.  I've been asked to teach a class of 9th graders Ubuntu.  I was hoping to find a curriculum that just needs to be updated.  If you don't know could you point me in the right direction? Please and thank you!
[01:15] <jono> akgraner, nope, nothing like that exists afaik
[01:15] <akgraner> I've already ordered the official Ubuntu book for all the students, but I know I'm going to need a more formal outline to present to the school...
[01:15] <jono> akgraner, maybe ask Ubuntu Youth
[01:15] <jono> would be awesome if you developed such a course
[01:16] <akgraner> well I'm going to have to :-)  so I'll share it with everyone and let people add to it  - if this goes well the whole school may migrate :-)
[01:16] <mhall119> akgraner: ask the Edubuntu team too, they might have something
[01:17] <akgraner> mhall119, that's true - I'll hunt dinda down too :-)
[01:17] <paultag> jono: akgraner: there was an ubuntu community learning project (UCLP) that had such materials IIRC
[01:17] <paultag> akgraner: might want to ask pleia2 or doctormo about it
[01:17] <paultag> this was before that team exploded
[01:19] <akgraner> Thanks y'all I'll explore all these options :-)  I only have 4 weeks to come up with this so I'll be hustling :-) b/c of course I said, "No problem,  can teach them!"
[01:19] <mhall119> akgraner: you can't just tell them to figure it out themselves?
[01:19] <akgraner> um not if I want a paycheck from them :-)
[01:20] <mhall119> oh, you're getting paid for this?
[01:20] <mhall119> nice
[01:20] <akgraner> yeppers :-)
[01:20] <akgraner> I don't turn down money...
[01:20] <mhall119> good career advice
[01:21] <akgraner> While I may give it away and share it  - I'll take it gladly :-)
[01:21] <mhall119> I can just imagine your brain: "You mean there will be a captive audience I can tell about the wonders of Ubuntu *and* I'll get paid to do it?!?!"
[01:21] <akgraner> oh heck yeah :-) that's exactly what I thought
[01:23] <akgraner> and none of this would have happened if I hadn't broken my knee - my physical therapist started asking me about Ubuntu.  Then I gave him the official book and a subscription to Ubuntu User.  He went to the PTA and School Officials and pitched the plan to try it with one grade and BAM the rest will hopefully be history...
[01:24] <akgraner> See it does pay to talk to everyone who will listen about Ubuntu :-)
[02:03] <cjohnston> jono, mhall119 paultag et al... I don't know about mhall119, but I would prefer that, since access was given to the LC, that the LC be responsible for adding/checking blogs, (or you jono since you also have access). If there is a problem with adding a blog feel free to ask for assistance.. other than that, I'd personally rather not be responsible for that part.
[02:06] <paultag> cjohnston: keep reading backlog
[02:08] <cjohnston> I know that mhall119 said that he wanted the loco council to make the decisions.. im mostly saying that I'd rather that the LC make decisions and add, which I don't see, but could have missed him mentioning about adding them as well
[02:09] <paultag> cjohnston: dude, I don't want to keep repeating conversations - I did it, I don't think anyone left with the impression that ya'll are managing it
[02:09] <paultag> cjohnston: I'm busy
[02:09] <paultag> cjohnston: we can chat later, there's no issue
[02:09] <cjohnston> ok
[02:25] <pleia2> akgraner: ubuntu learning is a bit defunct, but only because I don't have volunteers to help write course materials (doctormo has written 5 sysadmin classes that he was teaching up near boston for a while)
[02:25] <pleia2> we're still over in #ubuntu-learning though
[02:27] <akgraner> pleia2, I have 5 people now wanting to help - one person was a college level teacher for 20 years :-)  so I'll share the googledoc link with you and anyone who wants to help is welcome to :-)  I'll start on this on Monday as I need to finish a million other things between now and Sunday :-)
[02:27] <pleia2> akgraner: awesome, darkwingduck joined recently too so we'll see
[02:27] <akgraner> sweet!
[02:27] <pleia2> I'm at an airport now so we can touch base tuesday :)
[02:28] <akgraner> :-)  thank you!
[02:28]  * pleia2 finally using her fancy lounge pass!
[02:28] <akgraner> great!  have a great weekend! and don't worry about UWN we'll take care of it...no stress for you this weekend :-P
[02:28] <pleia2> thanks :)
[03:19] <akgraner> Ok who wants to teach me how to start a project in LP :-)  That should be a good Global Jam event  -teaching akgraner to use LP for more that filing bugs and joining teams...I think if I ask pgraner their may be a fight :-)  I'll see if I can figure it out on Sunday but if I get stuck I'm pinging y'all  - consider this your warning :-)
[03:19] <akgraner> s/their/there
[06:05] <czajkowski> morning
[13:41] <czajkowski> aloha
[13:50] <akgraner> czajkowski, morning/afternoon :-)

[14:37] <jussi> 35C.... WHY??????? :(
[14:45] <akgraner> anyone else running oneiric can you check to see if checkbox/system testing will work for you - I can't get it to run for me using oneiric
[14:46] <czajkowski> akgraner: where do I run it
[14:46] <akgraner> pgraner's filing the bug since he can't get it to run either as I am still packing to take stuff to our global jam venue
[14:46] <czajkowski> having issues with getting U1 to run
[14:46] <czajkowski> cant launch gwibber
[14:46] <akgraner> czajkowski, go to the dash and type "system testing"
[14:47] <akgraner> you should see the icon show up click on it and see if it opens up for you
[14:47] <akgraner> Thank you!
[14:47] <akgraner> I am set to demo this in about an hour - and it looks like I will have to fall back to Natty
[14:48] <akgraner> here's the bug number if you can't get to work for you either -  840376
[14:49] <akgraner> yeah there's a lot of broken stuff in the beta I am finding  - I think I likes the alpha better :-/
[14:50] <akgraner> well I gotta run thanks czajkowski for trying it - I have an hour to drive to the venue...more later
[14:51] <czajkowski>  ant get it to run
[14:51] <czajkowski> *cant
[14:52] <czajkowski> alt f2  and typing it there causes machine to lock up
[14:52] <akgraner> czajkowski, thanks - yep it's borked - can you me to that bug number please...
[14:54] <czajkowski> which bug number ?
[14:54] <czajkowski> bug #840376
[14:54] <ubot2`> Launchpad bug 840376 in checkbox "System Testing (aka checkbox-gtk) fails to run" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/840376
[15:50] <nigelb> AlanBell: ara blogged about something related to that.
[15:50] <nigelb> err
[15:50] <nigelb> akgraner: ^
[17:08] <paultag> akgraner: hey, you jamming?
[17:09] <paultag> akgraner: I need you to do something if you are
[17:09] <paultag> akgraner: and like nowish
[17:10] <paultag> :)
[17:11] <paultag> akgraner: if you're at the NC jam, can you stand up and ask for "John Riselvato". He worked on a few of my projects in the past, and I would love it if you could give him a (over the top) welcome
[17:11] <paultag> akgraner: get him to stand up and wave and all that other humiliating crud
[18:47]  * AlanBell looks forward to meeting openiduser560 at http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-uk/1257/detail/
[18:49] <czajkowski> akgraner: why ?
[19:38]  * popey waves to everyone
[23:56] <akgraner> paultag, sorry - I wasn't looking at IRC during the jam
[23:56] <akgraner> :-(
[23:58] <akgraner> It all worked out - I just showed everyone how to get to system testing (no one but me and Pete and one other person were running oneiric) and I showed them the  mock-ups and gave them the overview and asked them to join the UF LP team and maiing list and send in feedback
[23:59] <akgraner> then I just showed everyone what Beta 1 was looking like and highlighted the coolness of the software center :-)  it was fun..
