Garethnhaines: just wanted to confirm that we talked about an Ubuntu booth?06:12
nhainesGareth: I can confirm that we didn't.  :)06:13
Garethah ha.06:13
GarethI would assume that even though we didnt talk about it that you intested in having said booth?06:13
nhainesGareth: yup, we should totally do that.06:13
Garethokay good.06:14
nhainesGreat. Also we like corner booths better than middle ones. But that might be planning too far ahead. :P06:15
Garetheveryone likes corner booths...just depends on the briefcases that show up anonymously on the doorstep.06:16

BotenAnnajust going to keep posting cute things until there is discussion! :)21:24
* akk doesn't generally click on random links that arrive with no explanation ... have heard other channel members say similar things21:26
* MarkDude likes the links BotenAnna 21:30
MarkDudeDaleks ftw21:30
MarkDudeSo last night I met with some friends to practice for an upcoming flashmob. Good news, I think I can learn the dance moves. Downside, there will be some videos made of this- so I DOUBT I will ever be able to live it down.21:38
akkPoor MarkDude, I know how shy you are about stuff like that. :)21:42
MarkDudelol21:42
akkA dancing flash mob sounds pretty fun! Especially if you get to practice beforehand.21:42
MarkDudeWell21:42
* MarkDude is actually a rather shy person21:42
MarkDudeBUT, I like meeting people MORE than being shy21:43
MarkDudeSo I force myself to be outgoing21:43
MarkDudePeople think I am completely outgoing, so I guess I do a good job of forcing myself to do so21:43
MarkDudeIm tellin' ya, some of the moves are ALMOST the whole *jazz hands thing*21:44
MarkDudePure comedy gold. Then there  are a few gyrating my hips moves, rofl21:45
BotenAnnaakk: I promise I won't paste gay porn in here on purpose!21:45
akkI can't wait for the youtube. :)21:45
BotenAnnaif you don't click random links in irc, you're not living dangerously enough ;)21:46
MarkDudeThis channel is fine for links21:46
akkBotenAnna: Hey, some people might want to see gay porn. :)  But not everyone wants to see every type of link.21:46
* MarkDude is part of a few OT channels, that I WONT click links21:46
MarkDudeakk, we should have video next month21:47
akkI'm not worried about links here being some horrible goatse thing, it's just that if I clicked on every link that ever showed up in IRC I'd go dangerously over my daily limit of cat pictures. :)21:47
BotenAnnacan there be a limit???21:48
BotenAnnahere's a cat picture https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-NEKKq1nBu9E/TrDCLfKtlbI/AAAAAAAAfIw/iMY_4ndkjTE/s720/DSCN1854.JPG21:48
akkAnd most people are doing other stuff, so if it's just some unlabeled link, it's not clear if it's worth stopping to click, whereas if it's labeled "adorable baby pangolins!" they might decide it's worth it.21:48
MarkDudeWell we dont have a bot announce what links are21:54
MarkDudeOregon for example has a bot that says what links actually are21:54
akkI'm not sure that would work for raw jpg links, though.21:54
akkUnless it was a really really smart bot. :)21:55
* akk is working on an exercise in image recognition for this week's ML class homework, but even once it's working it won't be that smart21:55
BotenAnnathere are bots on synirc that do things like say the title of youtube videos and such22:44
ryaxnbso i heard foie gras is illegal now in CA22:44
ryaxnbwho wants to bet foie gras sales increase in Vegas?22:44
ryaxnb"drive to vegas, play the slots, eat foie gras"22:45
ryaxnbwhy not?22:45
ryaxnbanother thing NV allows that CA does not, just after gambling, prostitution, etc.22:46
ryaxnband formerly divorces...22:46
ryaxnbfoie gras fits in perfectly with Vegas the land of excess.22:46
seidoshi everybody22:54
ryaxnbhi seidos i was saying22:55
ryaxnbso i heard foie gras is illegal now in CA who wants to bet foie gras sales increase in Vegas?22:56
seidosthat's interesting, i wonder if that mat made of faux grass a friend of mine sold is worth more now22:59
ryaxnb:/22:59
seidosah foie gras != faux grass23:00
ryaxnbfoie gras, duck meat23:00
ryaxnbit has an animal right thing23:00
seidossacre bleu23:00
ryaxnbfoie gras is specially fattened duck23:00
ryaxnbit's tasty23:00
seidosespecially fattened duck liver?23:01
ryaxnbanimal rights issues.23:01
ryaxnb:(23:01
seidosyeah, couldn't be good for people animals to eat that23:01
ryaxnbjust get it in NV.23:01
seidosi mean, especially in large quantities23:01
ryaxnbno , it tastes good23:01
ryaxnband no one eats it  in large quantities - it's gourmet food23:01
ryaxnbyou'll be seeing it at the Wynn in 3.2.1..23:02
seidosnot sure how something like that would get metabolized by the liver23:02
ryaxnbdude, i eat beef liver all the time.23:02
seidosi wouldn't eat it if i could avoid it23:02
seidoshow's your health buddy?23:02
ryaxnbfine23:02
ryaxnbbeef liver is metabolized like any other fodo23:02
seidoshow do you measure that?23:02
seidosi could be healthier23:03
ryaxnblook, the liver part isn't the problem23:03
ryaxnbliver is still legal; even duck liver23:03
seidosmy mile is pretty atrocious23:03
ryaxnbit's specially fattened duck liver.23:03
ryaxnbthe problem is the way they raise the ducks23:03
seidosrelatively speaking23:03
seidospoor quackers :(23:04
* ryaxnb would like some foie gras.23:04
ryaxnbi like ducks and all, but i luck duck meat more.23:04
* seidos is vegetarian23:04
ryaxnbi like ducks and all, but i like duck meat more.23:04
seidosluck=health23:04
ryaxnbliek23:05
ryaxnblike23:05
ryaxnbmeat is good for your health23:05
ryaxnbhow's you B12 level? are you taking B12 supplements? or do you eat eggs or milk?23:05
seidosit certainly beats strict nine23:05
ryaxnbour bodies need B12.23:05
seidosi'm vegetarian, not vegan23:05
seidosthose vegans are crazy.  i bet they run around with ak-47s23:05
ryaxnbgood.23:06
seidosprobably chew kat23:06
seidosor marijuana leaves23:06
seidoscreepy stuff23:06
ryaxnbyou need dairy products because of the B12.23:06
seidosi drink dairy cuz' i heard it's good for rebuilding mucus23:07
seidosit is probably possible to get b12 from specific plants, but that's too gourmet for me23:07
ryaxnbno, it's not.23:07
ryaxnb. According to the UK Vegan Society, the present consensus is that any B12 present in plant foods is likely to be unavailable to humans because B12 analogues can compete with B12 and inhibit metabolism.[56][57]23:07
ryaxnbyou can get it from supplements23:08
seidosthat's interesting23:08
ryaxnbbut basically, you're admitting that veganness is such a restrictive diet you need supplements to survive23:08
ryaxnbthat's bad :(23:08
seidosi didn't admit anything23:09
seidosi guess the UK Vegan Society is23:09
ryaxnbwell, the UK Vegan Society is23:09
ryaxnbfor all they espouse about vegan food being healthier, and naturaler, that's the elephant in the room23:09
seidosi would have to do a test on myself to know for sure23:09
seidosi wouldn't know what plants to try though...or seeds for that matter23:10
ryaxnbClaimed sources of B12 that have been shown to be inadequate or unreliable through direct studies[58] of vegans include laver (a seaweed), barley grass23:10
ryaxnbB12 :/23:10
ryaxnbof course, dairy provides a lot of b12.23:10
ryaxnband well-cooked eggs provided a small but probably sufficent amount of B12.23:11
ryaxnbso vegetarians shouldn't have issues.23:11
seidosapparently alcohol leeches b1223:11
seidosi'm too young to drink23:11
ryaxnbdon't they make vegetarian cheese?23:12
ryaxnbor do you just eat  cheese?23:12
seidosi hope so23:12
seidosi mean, cheese with meat in it?23:12
ryaxnb(strict vegetarians don't eat normal cheese)23:12
ryaxnbmost cheese is produced with rennet, which is animal... something23:12
seidosyou mean vegans don't eat cheese?23:12
seidosah23:13
ryaxnbno, rennet is a weird intestinal part of the animal usually used in cheesemaking23:13
ryaxnbonly tiny amounts are used, and it's stuff that would go to waste otherwise23:13
seidosis it used in jello too?23:13
ryaxnbbut strictt vegetarians are strict.23:13
seidosstrict vegetarians can afford to be strict23:13
ryaxnbso they only eat cheese made with artificial rennet.23:13
ryaxnbwhich luckily exists.23:13
seidosi've never made cheese23:14
seidosi've made sour milk, but never cheese23:14
seidosi do have gratitude for the cows though23:14
seidosi wonder what would happen if cows ate hemp or marijuana23:15
seidoshey MarkDude are you using fedora?23:21
seidosi was trying to use chrome with it, but there's apparently a glitch23:22
MarkDudeseidos, yes, m uch of the time23:22
MarkDudeWell F16 should be great to use23:22
MarkDude2 weeks after the release23:22
MarkDudeF17 even better, not just because it is codenamed Beefy Miracle23:22
* MarkDude can show you in person at Scale - if you are making it23:23
seidosyeah, should be there23:24
seidos15 is pretty nice, i like the volume control graphic23:24
seidosit's a lot like my old macbook23:24

MarkDudeYay cat pics23:54
MarkDudeat least 1/3 of the internets consist of kitty pics23:54
MarkDudeAnyone feel like living on the edge and submitting a talk for Scale with me?23:55
MarkDudeA focus on how people should focus on commonalities between Distros23:56
MarkDudeand not find ways to divide. FOSS folks share many common ideals type thing23:56
seidosthat's a good idea23:59
seidosi'm not really sure what i would say on the topic though23:59
