czajkowskikim0: aloha07:59
kim0czajkowski: hey there :)07:59
kim0where are the boys .. things are quite today07:59
czajkowskiaye very quiet08:00
* nigelb waves weakly08:02
nigelbNeck pain killing my monday :(08:02
mhall119sounds like nigelb had a wild weekend11:59
mhall119morning everyone11:59
nigelbmhall119: :D12:01
kim0akgraner: where did you mirror that post btw .. I'd like to keep an eye there as well12:31
akgranergoogle +12:31
kim0got it12:32
akgranercool - just thought I'd let ya know - I hope my reply wasn't rude to the person who asked the question...but didn't want other questions getting posted there without you all knowing12:32
mhall119akgraner, rude?  I can't even imagine.12:34
kim0It's a pity when I post the article on FB .. people talk there, on G+ the same ..etc12:34
kim0there needs to be an aggregated grand central of comments or somthn12:34
mhall119disqus12:34
AlanBellmonopolies are so convenient!12:34
mhall119but I hear it's not so great12:34
akgraneryep - I wanted to say - "um did you read the article  - post questions and comments there"12:34
kim0yeah except you're not allowed to use your "comments" once you export them12:35
akgranermhall119, I'm working on being more assertive and concise...sometimes that comes across as rude when I don't mean too...12:35
AlanBellfunnily enough a comment system build on desktopcouch/U1 hosted couch would work rather well12:36
mhall119akgraner: only online, where your accent doesn't work it's magical charm12:36
mhall119we need <southern></southern> tags12:36
akgranermhall119, I had some feedback that I was too nice and didn't stand up for myself like I should  - so I'm working on that....  aww thanks :-)12:36
* mhall119 subscribes to the Winston Churchill philosophy of assertiveness12:37
akgranerwhat's that speak softly and carry a big stick kinda style12:38
mhall119yup12:38
akgraner:-)12:38
akgranermhall119, you've meet me  - um whispering/speaking softly and I do not go together...plus that would give pgraner an excuse for not hearing me around the house.12:39
Pendulummhall119: I thought that predated Churchill (I'm thinking it was Teddy Roosevelt)12:40
mhall119akgraner: he's a man, he doesn't need an excuse ;)12:41
akgranerhahaha12:41
mhall119Pendulum: I think it's one of those contested quotes, but generally attributed to Churchill12:41
Pendulummhall119: weird, I've never heard Churchill with it before12:42
akgranermhall119,  - oops I wasn't supposed to laugh at that was I...inside voice reminder :-)12:42

jcastromhall119: james_w: hey so linaro wants to get the ball rolling on scheduling, is there anything stopping us from turning on the blueprint importer death-o-tron?18:34
james_wjcastro, that's already on18:34
james_wthe autoscheduler currently isn't on though18:34
jcastroI think that's what they want on18:35
jcastrothat's what bacon told me krafty told him18:35
james_wace18:35
james_wI'll do that now18:35
jcastrothat's just an hourly cron right?18:36
jussijames_w: did you see my ping from the other day?18:36
james_wjussi, nope18:36
james_wjcastro, every 15 minutes I think, but yeah18:36
james_wjcastro, it's turned on, running at :20 and :5018:37
jcastrorock18:37
jussijames_w: http://paste.ubuntu.com/701867/18:37
jcastrojames_w: will it run in 12 minutes or does it start now?18:38
james_wjcastro, in 12 minutes18:38
jcastrorock18:38
james_wnow you can tell Bacon to tell krafty to tell whoever :-)18:38
james_wjussi, sounds ok to me18:38
jussichinese whispers!!!18:38
james_wI don't think we are using those names anywhere18:39
jussijames_w: ok, thanks18:39
james_wI do fear what renaming will do though18:39
james_wshould work fine, but it may duplicate them :-)18:39
jussijames_w: yeah, someone didnt check and decided to change them without telling other people...18:41
* jussi points to #canonical-sysadmin18:41
popeyjcastro: that google+ thread is the single most depressing thing I've seen in ages.18:51
jcastrowell18:51
jcastrothat guy's page is on engadget.com right now18:51
jcastroso really, haters be hatin'18:52
jcastropopey: getting dogpiled by the haters = signs that your work is working.18:53
czajkowskifor me I see canonical as community I'm tired of going to events and being asked am I canonical or community when in most cases we all work on Ubuntu18:57
czajkowskiso I dont like the differencation of Canonical Or Community, they are the same18:57
popeyhaha jcastro18:59
popeyjcastro: also http://www.thisisntthecountdown.com/18:59
jcastrohahahahaha18:59
jcastroawesome18:59
jcastroczajkowski: yeah, people treat you different18:59
jcastrolike I went to this lug meeting18:59
jcastroand I purposely didn't say what I do18:59
popeysome of us decoded it a while ago :D18:59
jcastro"I work on ubuntu"18:59
jcastroand then people were all like "OMG MINT"19:00
jcastrothen at the end one of them asked me who I work for and I was like "Canonical."19:00
jcastrothen all of a sudden it's like "omg welcome to our group!"19:00
popey19:00
czajkowskijcastro: is how I see it http://www.lczajkowski.com/2011/09/24/why-i-love-to-meet-more-ubuntu-people/19:00
jcastroI think it was that texas guy19:02
jcastrowho writes all those extremist posts about linux19:02
AlanBellneed more loco team related marketing getting into Canonical19:02
jcastrowas flaming ubuntu a bunch19:02
jcastroand then when he learned robbie works for canonical all of  a sudden he wants a  bunch of money for his project, haha19:02
AlanBellhttp://thisisthefinalcountdown.com/19:04
jcastroOMG YES19:04
pleia2lol19:05
czajkowskiLOL19:05
czajkowskiahh I knew there was a reason I blocked fab on G+ he's noisey19:05
czajkowskiand another reason why i don't use identi.ca any more19:05
jcastroczajkowski: exactly, I was just telling popey last week19:06
jcastrothe best way to avoid trolling is to not use Free Software services19:06
jcastrosad really...19:06
jcastrowait19:06
jcastroif you block someone19:06
jcastrodoes it stop them from commenting on your posts?19:07
AlanBellI think it does, yes19:07
jcastropopey: aha! That's the part I was missing19:07
jcastrohmm, it's not obvious to me how to block someone19:08
AlanBellas far as I know identi.ca and diaspora don't have like/+1/dent/hug type buttons available to use on websites19:08
AlanBellthere really should be a hug button on some service :)19:09
jcastrooh, looks like you need to follow a person to block them?19:11
popeyI find the "I don't care" bit irritating19:16
jcastrowhere?19:17
popeyin fabs threads19:17
popeyhe generally gets corrected, told how to fix the thing he rants about then ends with "I don't care"19:17
jcastrooh19:17
popeyIMO if you dont care, STFU19:17
jcastroheh19:17
popeybtw19:19
popeyI have re-heated ribs19:19

AlanBelland it appears there is more stuff to come20:29
AlanBellbecause it *isn't* counting down to the release20:30
AlanBellmhall119: cracked the code yet?20:30
jcastroany idea what it's counting down to?20:30
AlanBell<body class="NzcgNmYgNzIgNmMgNjQgMjAgNzMgNzAgNjEgNjMgNjUgMjAgNjEgNjcgNjUgNmUgNjMgNzkgMjAgNmYgNzIgNjc">  <- secret message20:31

jcastrohttp://www.pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/240999/excited_for_ubuntu_linux_1110_the_official_countdown_has_begun.html20:34
jcastrohah20:34
jcastro"official countdown"20:34
AlanBellit certainly isn't!20:34
AlanBellhowever there *is* someone at canonical who is in on the joke to some extent20:34
jcastroI'm loving the rumors20:35
AlanBelljono may have been a little over categorical about canonical having nothing to do with it20:36
popeyblog it :D20:38
popeycorrect the people20:39
