[00:07] hi everybody [00:07] well that figures that the list would bounce an email from an unregistered account [00:07] i had to do it to find out though [00:08] just heard about a hackathon @ UCLA this 10/27 [01:49] anyone else watching Colbert? loving the purple tie [02:24] kdub_: ping [06:50] pleia2: What do you use for twitter ;) [06:53] bitlbee and my phone [06:55] oh ok [06:55] pleia2: Well I run OpenBox now so I need to find a new client [06:55] :( [06:55] oh, and the image posts I do via email to flickr [06:55] TweetDeck is not working out so well with OpenBox [06:55] I run seesmic web on my 2nd desktop to view twitter and facebook [06:56] and g+ gets it's own browser window because it's interface automagically updates without clicky clicky (ahem, twitter!) [06:56] bkerensa: use gwibber? [06:57] nhaines: :P not working [06:57] :) [06:57] bkerensa @ gmail, si? [06:57] hmm? [06:57] yeah gmail for personal stuffs [06:57] :D [06:57] your email address [06:58] sending you a picture [06:58] k [06:58] nhaines: I'm giving Crunchbang a spin :) apparently OpenBox on Ubuntu does not work so well due to the release cycles [06:58] twitter, facebook, g+, respectively [06:58] :D [06:58] try fluxbox, it actually has an active maintainer in debian [06:59] crunchbang does :) [06:59] ah, good [06:59] in fact the crunchbang guy used to have crunchbang as a ubuntu base but the release cycles were to fast for him to handle :) [07:00] distros that base on LTS are smart [07:00] * bkerensa is using Crunchbang on his FreekBox for the lightweight.... Xubuntu failed me so idk :P [07:00] Day changed to 28 Sep 2011 :( [07:00] my alarm is going off in 7 hours [07:00] ooo [07:00] time for bed? [07:00] :D [07:00] yeah, Xubuntu isn't what you want for lightweight [07:01] pleia2: Well I just dont want Unity [07:01] bright side, it's the 28th now, so now I can say my birthday is tomorrow \o/ [07:01] :P [07:01] and KDE is not my thing [07:01] but two more sleepies before birthday [07:01] idk I'm being radical lately when it comes to usage :P [07:02] * bkerensa has formatted his desktop and laptop likely 10 times in two months [07:02] my desktop evolution went evolution (16) > fluxbox > xfce4 [07:02] keep trying to find something that is not using Unity but still Debian or Ubuntu based [07:03] at this point I think I've used xfce4 longer than any other windowing interface thing ever [07:03] pleia2: I guess I could just run LPS? [07:03] LPS? [07:03] you swim laps, not run them [07:03] http://www.spi.dod.mil/lipose.htm <-- Lightweight Portable Security [07:03] :D [07:04] lol [07:04] the DOD decided to release a distro [07:04] :P [07:04] and made their ISO's public [07:04] yeah, they've been pretty outspoken about their open source documents and push lately [07:04] it's pretty cool [07:04] maybe the gov will save money [07:04] :D [07:04] instead of pouring billions into licensing [07:04] :D [07:05] pleia2: What is your thoughts on Xubuntu 11.10? [07:05] Any major changes? [07:05] it uses xfce 4.8 which is muy shiny [07:05] (upgrade from 4.6) [07:05] oh wait [07:05] 11.10 [07:05] no, not a huge jump from 11.04 [07:07] switched to lightdm with the rest of ubuntu, changed some of the defaults [07:07] pleia2: Why does Maverick seem more lightweight then Natty (Classic) [07:07] regular Ubuntu? [07:07] indeed yeah [07:07] I noticed Natty (Classic) seems to consume more CPU then Maverick [07:07] I don't know [07:08] hmm [07:08] gnome runs all kinds of background stuff and always gets bigger, who knows [07:08] yeah [07:08] I am giving an Ubuntu 11.10 talk in Philly in a couple weeks because I figured "if I'm going, I might as well give a talk!" when did I become this person? I need to write a talk [07:09] well ttyl sleep time :D [07:09] night bkerensa [07:09] I should do the same, I have a degraded raid array to deal with in the morning :( [07:09] or perhaps my excuse is reformatting so I gotta go to bed :P [07:12] * pleia2 wanders toward beed [07:12] bed too! [07:13] night everyone [07:13] pleia2: good night! === sn9 is now known as TheTinker [07:56] nhaines: my desktop almost exploded [07:56] :( [07:57] That was intense [07:57] =o [07:57] something wicked happened to my CPU fan [07:57] I smelled melting plastic then I heard my cpu fan and power supply fan start going super loud and fast [07:57] :P [08:14] bkerensa: that's what you get for running GNOME3! :P [17:32] check out a project i am involved with: www.openmw.org [17:42] It is possible that this page is not suitable for visiting in a work environment. [17:45] I tend not to click on random links that show up with no more explanation than "check this out" anyway. [17:45] I figure if it's interesting enough to check out, it's interesting enough to merit a description of what it is. [17:54] it's an open source reimplementation of the morrowind game engine [17:54] i'm not sure why it would be nsfw, other than being game related [17:54] thanks for the incredibly hostile response guys, love this community a lot [17:55] raevol: we don't know you very well and it's common for people to use IRC to spam malicious links, I didn't click it either [17:56] just next time tell us what it is :) [17:56] a simple "what is this?" would do though, rather than implying i'm some kind of creep or spammer [17:57] i've been alternately labeled a creep and a spammer (not here) and i don't even do that [17:57] such is irc [17:58] one of the private servers I work on even has a kickban spam filter on the regex with "check out $link" [17:58] every other irc channel i frequent is more welcoming and understanding than this one, maybe i just have really good luck with irc [18:19] raevol: I clicked on the link and my company's content filter blocked it. [18:20] raevol: that doesn't put me on a "list" with HR (I think) but I've worked for other companies that are absolutely fanatical about that kind of thing. [18:25] nhaines: if your company has a content filter, you probably shouldn't be on irc, or clicking random links, even if they aren't nsfw [18:29] raevol: meanwhile, I don't access IRC from my company's network and when I open "random" links they're on a secured secondary computer. [18:30] nhaines: secured, but still subject to your company's content filter? [18:30] Yes. All computers connected to the network are subject to the content filter. [18:30] e_e [18:31] I don't know what you think "secured" means, but in this instance it means a different system with a different OS and minimal work-related data. [18:31] raevol: I'm sure no one meant to be unwelcoming, I'm sorry that we've given that impression [18:32] pleia2: no worries, sorry if i am a little touchy [18:32] raevol: I didn't give a warning in-channel because your link was "bad" (I have no way to know this yet), I did it because some people work for tyrants. :) [18:33] yea... i think common sense would dictate to not use IRC nor do any non-work related web browsing if your employer filters or tracks your web usage [18:33] but then again, common sense is increasingly rare these days [18:34] My company doesn't really care what I do when I'm on break but they still don't want me playing games or streaming media at any time. [18:35] cool [18:36] it really depends on the company, I don't think it's fair to put that all under "common sense" and accuse people of not having common sense if their work environment varies [18:38] meh, hot again today, I'm ready for summer to be over in SF now [18:38] (looks like it'll cool down this weekend) [18:38] it's finally getting cloudy in san diego [18:39] does san diego have summer weather at the normal summer time? [18:39] yea [18:39] san francisco's July-Aug is cold, Sept-Oct is hot thing still weirds me out [18:39] san diego has summer weather most of the year [18:40] october-march has a little bit of clouds and rain [18:40] interspersed with more summer weather [18:40] I think we got rain in january, but mostly we don't have weather, it's just in the 50s all the time [18:41] but 80s today, and no AC in my condo :( [18:41] and I work from home [18:42] It's so weird how SF is as hot as SJ this summer. [18:42] (just got to 80 here) [18:42] last september was worse, got over 90! [18:43] hit 100 in the mission one day, we all thought we were going to die :) [18:44] simple-scan has crashed every time i've tried to save this document [18:44] and i have to rescan it every time it crashes [18:44] about to smash my head into the wall [18:44] wish i could find a good windows scanning utility [18:44] * akk has pretty good luck in ubuntu with xsane-gimp [18:44] maybe try xsane? [18:45] gonna try windows pciture viewer :P then i won't have to transfer it anyway [19:49] hey greg-g, move from michigan? :P [19:50] yeah, we need to stop stealing people from other locos [19:51] * kdub considers applying for membership a third time... [19:52] pleia2, is that still done be an america's regional board? [19:53] also, the first too times i've been rejected for being too developery [19:53] but from reading the guidelines for 'developer membership', i don't think i should apply for that [19:53] kdub: if you're an ubuntu developer you want to go through the dev membership board: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperMembershipBoard [19:53] ah ok, I don't remember your application for some reason [19:53] i'm not exactly an ubuntu /developer/ though, like MOTU [19:54] care to share a link to your wiki page? I can offer some suggestions if needed [19:54] oh, it was back when the michigan team was my home team, a few years ago :) [19:54] pleia2: thanks, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KevinDuBois [19:56] kdub: this app actually looks pretty good, might want to add some future goals though [19:56] and testimonials are always good :) [20:00] yeah... would you mind adding a testimonial? :) [20:03] I'm on the board so I can't [20:03] * bkerensa is likely going to defer applying for membership another month [20:03] :P [20:03] ask other people though :) [20:04] Was too busy to put my application together [20:04] :D [20:04] and I got another convention [20:04] :( [20:04] ok [20:04] plus I start teaching Ubuntu classes in couple weeks at the FreeGeek Community Center :P [20:04] so maybe by January :D [20:11] I am happy because I have ramen. [20:12] I forgot to pick up forks while I was in the cafeteria (I wasn't eating ramen there) but my chop sticks will have to do. [20:12] In other news, I printed some audit cheat sheets I use to take notes while listening to calls and Ubuntu Light > Times New Roman. [21:34] DarkwingDuck: I finally found a shipping tube big enough for this crazy banner! [21:34] * pleia2 was getting ready to wrap the thing in bubblewrap and plastic and hope for the best [21:44] pleia2: is that for libertopia? [21:49] raevol: yep, we're sending down the banner and tablecloth [21:50] sweet, i'll hopefully be helping with that, i need to chat with DarkwingDuck [22:11] What's up? [22:11] OH right, banner [22:13] tried container store, a few office supply stores, USPS, a couple small fedexes, finally found a BIG fedex office that had the 4ft tubes :) [22:13] I'll get it packed up tonight [22:14] LOL [22:16] Well, there are two nominations up for leadership. [22:16] yeah, us [22:16] hehe [22:16] LOL [22:55] Does the leadership team plan to suspend elections again if there are less than 4 nominations? [22:56] We did last time when we only had three... [22:58] well, rather, if there are three then there will be no elections, the three will assume the position. [22:58] yeah, it's what I've done in other ubuntu teams, just a casual "if people have problems with these nominees, please speak up, otherwise they are the three" [22:58] haven't really hand problems with it, edubuntu did a confirmation vote once [22:58] However, if there are only two... I'm not sure what then. [22:58] What does the leadership team plan to do if there are less than three nominees? [22:59] we'll have to extend the nomination period [22:59] Into UDS season. Woot. [22:59] (the community council has had to do this a few times too) [23:00] Hopfully there is al least one person who wants to do it. [23:00] s/al/at [23:28] kdub_: indeed :) Moved out here a few weeks ago [23:31] * DarkwingDuck rubs eyes [23:31] This weekend is going to be insane. [23:32] My aunt and cousin are going to be here for the weekend. I think this is their second time visiting San Diego [23:33] I'm flying to a memorial service in phoenix :\ [23:33] :( [23:33] but I'll get to see a lot of family I haven't seen in a while [23:33] DarkwingDuck: what's the leadership team for? [23:33] raevol: What one? [23:33] :D [23:33] the one that there's only 2 people nominated [23:34] Ahh, the Loco Leadership [23:34] for ca? [23:34] Yes [23:34] huh, i see [23:34] wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Leadership [23:35] sorry pleia2 [23:35] iheartubuntu: sorry? [23:35] raevol: pleia2 and myself are running for re-election. [23:35] sorry to hear the news [23:35] iheartubuntu: oh, thank you [23:35] iheartubuntu: my uncle and I weren't close, but I am with his wife and other family, mostly going to be there for them [23:35] i see, i see [23:39] enjoying the cooler nights here in LA [23:39] easier to sleep :) [23:39] soon there will be ubuntu logos dancing in my head [23:40] 20 minutes [23:40] guess i'll pack up now
