| grantbow | I've scheduled an Ubuntu Hour in Kenya. Unfortunately loco.ubuntu.com doesn't seem to allow posting events without a team. | 06:49 |
| jono | grantbow, yup | 06:49 |
| rww | grantbow: that's a technical restriction of LD, not something people can override | 06:49 |
| grantbow | oh, hi jono | 06:49 |
| grantbow | so how do I publicize this event and record it's progress if the team isn't setup there yet? | 06:50 |
| rww | get the team set up properly? or use something other than LD? | 06:50 |
| grantbow | working on that but it's taking awhile | 06:50 |
| rww | #ubuntu-locoteams may have alternate ideas (and is probably a better venue), but those are the alternatives I see assuming LD code hasn't changed fundamentally since I last looked at it | 06:50 |
| grantbow | chicken and egg issue, ok | 06:52 |
| grantbow | thanks | 06:52 |
| nhaines | Thus reaffirming my view that LD is utterly useless outside of a very small, well-defined use case. | 06:57 |
| rww | philipballew: If you do it properly, it's fine. If you don't, the computer will overheat and/or not turn on until the overclock's unset (either automatically by your motherboard or using a jumper on the motherboard). Thermal control on modern CPUs means it likely won't be an issue, but if you do break it, it's you that's out the money ;) | 06:57 |
| rww | philipballew: personally, I've run mine at about 25% overclock and could probably get it higher if I wanted and never had issues. ymmv | 06:58 |
| philipballew | hum. I just bought a old new for me desktop with a pentium 4 | 06:58 |
| nhaines | Although I'm not sure why people expect to be allowed to put non-LoCo events on the LoCo event directory. | 06:59 |
| philipballew | rww, I need to learn to do mods like this | 07:00 |
| grantbow | in order to get a team started activity has to be shown. Activities need to be successful for a team to start. | 07:00 |
| rww | philipballew: I specifically bought my motherboard and CPU knowing that I'd be overclocking it. Various combinations do or don't support overclocking, it's a bit weird. | 07:00 |
| rww | I'm spoiled by mine, don't know how to do the harder ones :) | 07:01 |
| nhaines | grantbow: Non-LoCo events don't belong on a LoCo event directory. | 07:01 |
| philipballew | yeah. it was 50 bucks so i got it. maybe i shouldnt break it | 07:01 |
| philipballew | came with a router to... good thing i dont need it | 07:01 |
| nhaines | Ubuntu Hours are probably best advertisd locally with fliers or local ML posts, anyhow. | 07:02 |
| philipballew | where you place them is key | 07:03 |
| grantbow | noted | 07:03 |
| nhaines | grantbow: just because of the local nature of them. But the good news is that it doesn't hurt and can be done before any LoCo stuff gets sorted out. | 07:03 |
| nhaines | And with luck, the UH can be a good place to meet peole interested in forming a LoCo. | 07:03 |
| grantbow | popey just enabled it on loco.ubuntu.com as unapproved | 07:04 |
| * rww looks | 07:04 | |
| grantbow | I think | 07:04 |
| grantbow | ah, invited and they need to accept | 07:05 |
| rww | thought so | 07:05 |
| rww | I was going to say, that contradicted a lot of my assumptions ;) | 07:05 |
| grantbow | hakuna matata rww | 07:05 |
