[06:48] <grantbow> ping: pleia2, jono or anyone else that might be able to help.
[06:49] <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
[06:50] <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
[06:52] <grantbow> chicken and egg issue, ok
[06:52] <grantbow> thanks
[06:57] <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 ;)
[06:58] <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
[06:59] <nhaines> Although I'm not sure why people expect to be allowed to put non-LoCo events on the LoCo event directory.
[07:00] <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.
[07:01] <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
[07:02] <nhaines> Ubuntu Hours are probably best advertisd locally with fliers or local ML posts, anyhow.
[07:03] <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.
[07:04] <grantbow> popey just enabled it on loco.ubuntu.com as unapproved
[07:04]  * rww looks
[07:04] <grantbow> I think
[07:05] <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

[20:32] <bkerensa> My server is struggling to handle the amount of traffic it is receiving
