[01:55] So the USF computer store denied our request to collaborate with them on their first annual tech fair. [01:56] We wanted to show up and give some educational information on libre software and, of course, pass out Ubuntu goodies. [02:32] bluebomber: the computer store *sells* commercial software at a profit [02:33] mhall119: Actually, they sell commercial software licenses . [02:33] X-D [02:33] Doesn't matter. I almost want to suggest they take a bunch of gratis Ubuntu CDs and sell them in the store, too. Something like $5 a CD, or whatever the amount. 100% profit. [02:33] :-/ [03:21] mhall119: Do you think it a good idea to participate, if we're allowed? [11:28] bluebomber: certainly, participation is always good [14:39] Is there any way to keep Empathy from losing spacing on retrieved IMs? [14:39] When people send me code, all of the indentation is lost, and it makes me sooo very sad. [14:44] probably not, IM isn't the ideal way of transferring code [14:56] and empathy is quite pathetic..although it's getting better [15:01] telepathy still rules [15:01] zoopster: what did you mean about strobe not supporting ubuntu as a publishing platform? [15:01] oh ... er.. morning all [15:02] dantalizing: try "publishing" your app to ubuntu...your only choice is ios or android [15:02] oh [15:02] well isnt that their whole model? [15:02] you can publish to "web" too... just their web [15:03] but to use any of the ajaxy features you need to go through their (warning vendor lock-in) proxy service [15:06] wonder if you could publish to strobes "web" and then take all your code and wrap it in Titanium (python) to make a desktop app [15:06] hmm [15:08] morning dantalizing [15:16] yea, but that model is self defeating [15:16] matt just sent me an email [15:16] heh [15:17] lol [15:17] quit bashing us in public! [15:17] please [15:17] and you could...do that...don't even need titanium do ya? [15:18] it would be all html [15:18] so however you would wrap that in desktop bindings [15:37] I've seen a mockup of google calendar using pygtk [15:38] nice [15:38] mhall119: We often IM SQL queries, or small blocks of code back-and-forth. No reason to not use IM for such a task. [15:39] I can think of one reason [15:39] Security? [15:39] whitespace mangling [15:39] Yeah, but only empathy seems to mangle the whitespace. [15:40] Which is my problem. Pidgin, AIM, YIM, GTalk, do not mangle the whitespace. [15:40] https://code.launchpad.net/~rick-rickspencer3/+junk/google_calender [15:40] well, then your choices are A) Use Pidgin or B) Patch Empathy [15:41] :( [15:50] how funny... dantalizing the email from mjasay was a autoreply to the @strobe reply!!! [15:51] lol [15:52] sounds like we have a DOS vector! [15:52] for sure [15:54] ok well maybe not...it's from salesforce [15:54] yeah i'm missing that connection [15:55] alfresco->canonical->sproutcore ... no? [15:55] twitter integration into SF...interesting [15:55] alfresco still rocks too [15:56] that's his path, but yea...shows how the SaaS is more powerful than the on premise apps [16:00] +1
