=== locobot_5_2 is now known as locobot_5 [09:17] morning [09:18] hi there [09:27] morning all [09:28] morning [09:43] fyi if ye are moving to dublin, there's a hackerspace, TOG, that has an irc channel. #tog. [09:43] http://www.tog.ie, etc. [09:44] < [09:44] 3 [09:44] great. what else do i need internet, a community and a hackerspace. [09:48] good beer. [09:48] bull & castle, porterhouse, l. mulligan grocer. ☺ [09:48] I know that germans love beer but i don't. :D [09:49] What about Guinness? [09:50] everywhere serves guiness. that is a list of pubs that serve good beer [09:56] what's your favorite beer? [11:29] dstaar: ireland doesn't really have a beer culture [11:30] ohhhh a hackerspace! Shiny :) [11:30] looking forward! [11:31] who will you be working for? === thejetset is now known as BenChapman [14:15] thejetset, i was thinking about the ubuntu hours and if there was any overlap with what you're doing with the coder dojo [14:19] slashtom: ubuntu hours? [14:20] the ubuntu hour! https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hour [14:20] oh dear, ebel or someone - can you correct that [14:20] Oh very nice [14:20] definitely :) [14:21] The Trinity Capital Hotel/d [14:21] we're changing it, and moving away from the pub [14:21] i have proposed holding it in a café/coffee shop [14:21] on a weekend [14:22] edited [14:22] Ah hmmm [14:22] ok [14:22] When you say overlap with CoderDojo? [14:23] work together? [14:23] possibly an opportunity to steer anyone in this direction who may be interested in ubuntu [14:23] thanks ebel [14:25] ah definitely! [14:25] Wow... I only noticed this now: http://www.technomancy.org/hackerspace-wikipedia-delete/ [14:26] indeedy. that's my site btw [14:26] I know :) It was on your business card :P [14:27] that wikipedia saga put me off wikipedia [14:27] But what's worse is the article about it on Wikipedia itself states: "It employs 420 people ... According to the Audit Bureau of Circulations, it had a daily circulation of 100,951 during the first six months of 2011" [14:27] it's too hard to fight the deletionists... [14:27] I mean... seriously... how is that a "Not sure" [14:28] Bill Clinton has written op-eds for it [14:28] One of the few bad things about community based stuff [14:28] what annoyed me was how the guy stated something, and claimed to have done research. But 5 minutes of reseach would show he hadn't done any research. [14:28] Give a nut too much power and they'll go wild [14:29] An uninformed bystander might think the guy had done the research, and that he was telling the truth, [14:29] I had to harass and refute what he saying. [14:30] Well good work for doing so! I probably wouldn't have botehred [14:32] * ebel likes TOG [14:33] ebel is very good at harrasing people for spreading misinformation, especially journalists [14:34] slashtom: emailing a journalist or pressure group asking for a source doesn't count as 'harassing'. [14:34] most journalists/newspapers just print anything without fact checking. [14:36] Heh [14:36] I'm currently sitting in storyful's offices as it happens [14:36] amongst many journalists [14:37] tell em to link to primary sources. And not to just print press releases. [14:37] (which means a ten fold increase in work and a ten fold decrease in content :P ) [14:50] They're content curation [14:50] slightly different [14:50] :P === Featurefreak is now known as NET||abuse [23:49] * Xserty [23:50] * Xserty
