* MarkDude does not normally bring news from Fedora here, but, this is a noteworthy exception. The Board just approved Beefy Miracle as a possible name for the next release. 17:39
MarkDudeALL Hail the Beefy Miracle!!!17:39
MarkDudehttps://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Name_suggestions_for_Fedora_1717:40
pleia2they should just approve it so I don't need to keep hearing about it for every release17:52
jyoIs there actually an order to Fedora codenames?17:54
jyoOr was it that related story between adjacent names thing?17:54
MarkDudeThere has to be a link between old and new name18:20
MarkDudeThere are all sorts of rules about it. And pleia2 more likely this is turning into the joke that will never go away18:20
MarkDudeJust as Bacon has alwys been on the suggested names- it does not get approved for next step for 2 reasons, bacon sofware- as well as Jono18:21

TtechMarkDude, Where is it?20:18
TtechSF?20:18
* MarkDude lives in Danvile20:22
MarkDudeand has air conditioning20:22
jyoWouldn't it be awesome if we got... Pangolin for the next codename?20:23
MarkDudeWell I still would prefer Penguin20:26
pleia2pangolins are teh cute20:26
MarkDudeit would be acceptable tho20:26
MarkDude:D20:26
pleia2finding such a stuffed animal would be hard though...20:26
* pleia2 frowns at finding the wrong kind of stuffed pangolin20:28
jyotoy pangolin gets you a bunch of plastic ones and a plush one from Alibaba that "can come up to the standards of many international safety inspection"20:29
MarkDudenp, pangolin and ocelot are commonly known animals ;P20:31
pleia2yeah I found the alibaba one, it seems a bit frightening :)20:33
pleia2"the stuffing is made of lead chips, it's fine if you don't lick it!"20:33
jyoIf you wouldn't lick it, I'm sure your pet wouldn't either?20:37
kdubpuma20:52
kdub^^^ my vote20:52
nhainesI prefer no cats, because I'm sick of hearing about Apple comparisons.20:57
pleia2we have been quite cat-heavy lately21:06
pleia2heading over to ITT Tech in oakland in a bit for a talk on Ubuntu for a linux class \o/22:00
MarkDudeKick some ass pleia222:05
pleia2thanks :)22:05
MarkDudeI know you will22:05
nhainespleia2: good luck.  :)22:45
nhainespleia2: what will you focus on?22:45
pleia2nhaines: thanks, it's just a 10-15 minute presentation on what ubuntu is and why it exists, then Q&A22:45
pleia2the class is intro to linux, and they do their work on fedora, so the professor wanted an ubuntu person to widen their exposure22:46
nhainespleia2: oh, that's cool.  :)22:48
MarkDudeBoth operating systems are decent. Ubuntu hella wins on the community thing22:48
MarkDudeend of talk22:48
MarkDude:D22:48
MarkDudeDont forget to include that Fedora has complete lack of jono22:48
MarkDudeI mean Ubuntu wins on most accounts22:49
pleia2I don't really plan on comparing the two, I honestly don't know enough about fedora22:49
MarkDudeWell if you are keeping score Ubuntu wins on community, parties, and the jono thing22:49
MarkDudeFedora has Beefy Miracle, and some crap about the Foundations and freedom, and the saying be excellent to each other22:50
* MarkDude may be jonking bu tcommunity honestly is best part to include. Fedora in international community, with very little local stuff22:51
MarkDudeOh, and the fact Apt is roughly 1 million times quicker than rpm crap22:52
pleia2I'll certainly mention the community, but it's a linux class at a work-ready training school and I'm a sysadmin, so I'll be more focused on the user side and goals that ubuntu has22:52
MarkDudeapt get moo would amaze a few people used to working with how quick it is22:52
pleia2I'm not recruiting community members this time, just exposing people to what Ubuntu is if they choose to use it :)22:53
MarkDudeOk, dont forget many people that dont use ubuntu still promote and are part of the community ;)22:54
MarkDudeI am willing to bet just your talking about it , will get at least a few interested, you ARE that good pleia222:55
pleia2MarkDude: oh! I passed the A's home in Phoenix while I was there :) they are near the phoenix zoo22:55
MarkDudeCool, near that dinosaur rock hill22:55
pleia2I would have taken a picture, but I was driving22:55
* MarkDude wants to make it to spring training next year22:56
MarkDudelast home game is Thur22:56
pleia2aww22:56
