| myno | There is an Ubuntu LoCo in Iowa, where I live. With the closure of the ShipIt program, do these LoCos offer to ship media to users? My internet is too slow to download it within the intermittent service disconnections I get. | 02:34 |
|---|---|---|
| myno | When visiting the like given in the topic, I am told I am not a member of any authorized teams. I assume that's because only team leaders are allowed to request CDs. | 02:42 |
| myno | Does anyone know where I can request an Ubuntu CD? | 03:00 |
| mhall119 | myno: your LoCo team isn't on the list to get shipments of CDs, but someone in the team will likely be willing to burn you one | 03:05 |
| mhall119 | if you want one of the official printed ones, you can buy one from the store: http://shop.canonical.com/index.php?cPath=17 | 03:06 |
| myno | mhall119: Ah ok. That was my main concern (unofficial teams, according to some of the comments on the ShipIt closure blog post) didn't seem to be qualified. I'll contact one of the folks on the team. Thanks! | 03:06 |
| mhall119 | myno: yeah, unfortunately because of limited resources, not all teams get free CDs | 03:07 |
| myno | mhall119: Understandable. | 03:07 |
| bkerensa | Happy UCADay | 10:34 |
| mhall119 | paultag: ping | 14:23 |
| mhall119 | paultag: I just wanted to say thanks for your work in the community, and your advice and friendship to me | 14:39 |
| gsrlz67 | where do i tell ubuntu mistakes | 15:00 |
| gsrlz67 | which side is it | 15:01 |
| leoquant | nigelb are you still into "classrooms"/classroom project? | 15:16 |
| paultag | mhall119: thanks, man :) | 16:40 |
| paultag | mhall119: I'll miss y'all. | 16:40 |
| mhall119 | miss us? | 16:41 |
| mhall119 | where are you going? | 16:41 |
| mhall119 | paultag: ^^ | 16:41 |
| paultag | mhall119: Well, I plan on phasing out my membership in teams (my bugsquad and -control memebership expire this week), and when I leave a team, I'll be thinning out IRC channels as well | 16:42 |
| paultag | mhall119: but I'll be around. I'll be in Debian, anyway | 16:42 |
| * mhall119 will stalk you | 16:42 | |
| czajkowski | indeed | 16:42 |
| czajkowski | likewise | 16:42 |
| paultag | awww :) | 16:42 |
| czajkowski | paultag: you are not getting away that easily from me! | 16:42 |
| paultag | I'll still have my ubuntu membership, and I'll stay on planet.ubuntu | 16:43 |
| czajkowski | we have spoken about this :) | 16:43 |
| paultag | yeah :) | 16:43 |
| paultag | but it feels... good. | 16:43 |
| mhall119 | going to debian can hardly be considered leaving the ubuntu community | 16:43 |
| paultag | I've even had time to finish an idea I started, which is rare | 16:43 |
| paultag | mhall119: I'll be contributing indirectly | 16:43 |
| paultag | mhall119: and that's why I feel OK maintaining my ubuntu membership | 16:44 |
| mhall119 | it's like saying you're leaving construction because you're switching from roofing to laying concrete foundations ;) | 16:44 |
| paultag | mhall119: Yeah, I mean, yeah. It's just I can't imagine be as active with Ubuntu as I was for this last, oh, 4 years. | 16:45 |
| mhall119 | well I'd say I'll miss you too, but I for one don't plan on leaving you alone | 16:47 |
| paultag | my inbox will always be open :) | 16:47 |
| paultag | I'm sure I'll idle in some freenode channels | 16:47 |
| mhall119 | but you're not in #debian/ | 16:48 |
| mhall119 | ? | 16:48 |
| paultag | mhall119: not on Freenode, and not of OFTC :) | 16:48 |
| paultag | I'm in debian-devel on oftc, along with debian-mentors and a slew of others | 16:48 |
| mhall119 | which is the preferred network for debian? | 16:48 |
| paultag | mhall119: oftc | 16:48 |
| mhall119 | great, another network to join | 16:48 |
| paultag | :P | 16:48 |
| paultag | mhall119: ~mhall119@ec2-50-19-101-225.compute-1.amazonaws.com | 16:51 |
| paultag | mhall119: fancy :) | 16:51 |
| paultag | mhall119: got a nice little EC2 instance? :) | 16:51 |
| mhall119 | s/fancy/lazy | 16:51 |
| mhall119 | got 2 right now, going to terminate one as soon as I migrate readfeeder.net to mhall119.com's instance | 16:51 |
| paultag | gotcha | 16:52 |
| paultag | So, what's a good key that's not used in a normal terminal session? | 16:54 |
| paultag | what's the most "useless" terminal key? | 16:54 |
| mhall119 | terminal key? | 16:56 |
| mhall119 | or keyboard key while using a terminal? | 16:56 |
| paultag | mhall119: yeah | 16:56 |
| mhall119 | %? | 16:56 |
| * mhall119 needs to re-organize his irssi windows | 16:58 | |
| paultag | mhall119: well, I'm working on my little app-thing | 17:00 |
| paultag | mhall119: and I'd like to find a key combo to issue a command to it, rather then the terminal | 17:00 |
| paultag | % might suck for date format strings, or programmers | 17:00 |
| mhall119 | hmmm, true | 17:04 |
| paultag | I'm thinking meta | 17:05 |
| paultag | no one uses meta anymore | 17:05 |
| paultag | I always did like the super key for stuff like that | 17:05 |
| mhall119 | yeah, but super key is used a lot in Unity, and probably also by custom window management shortcuts | 17:06 |
| mhall119 | alt+F* is used in window management too, but alt+[a-z0-9] is probably okay | 17:07 |
| paultag | mhall119: well, I don't really mind, since a window manager makes this app fairly to pretty useless | 17:07 |
| paultag | mhall119: alt is used by irssi a lot | 17:07 |
| paultag | I'd rather not klobber my own irc client :) | 17:07 |
| mhall119 | except that alt+[0-9] is used in irssi | 17:09 |
| mhall119 | blah, delay | 17:09 |
| paultag | np, I'm lagging hard too | 17:10 |
| mhall119 | so, the drawback of running irssi on an EC2 micro instance, every once in a while someone else on that box clobbers the CPU, and you end up waiting | 17:10 |
| paultag | my wifi at this starbucks is horrid | 17:10 |
| paultag | so my ssh session keeps breaking | 17:10 |
| mhall119 | ssh is surprisingly resilient to network problems, compared to many other services | 17:11 |
| paultag | that's true | 17:11 |
| paultag | good hot damn, whoever's playing the blues on this starbucks radio is just amazing | 17:12 |
| mhall119 | Hugh Laurie? | 17:13 |
| paultag | he has an amazing voice | 17:13 |
| paultag | and he can play the hell out of some blues | 17:13 |
| mhall119 | in any accent | 17:13 |
| paultag | inorite? | 17:13 |
| paultag | Well, anyway, it works enough for me to type this | 17:22 |
| paultag | some minor issues, but mostly OK | 17:22 |
| paultag | (and no color) | 17:22 |
| paultag | (and it can't resize) | 17:22 |
| paultag | (well it can, but the term won't relize it) | 17:22 |
| mhall119 | your wifi doesn't have color? that's a shame | 17:23 |
| paultag | mhall119: my terminal app :) | 17:25 |
| paultag | mhall119: I'm thinking ctrl+e | 17:38 |
| paultag | can you think of any iuse for that? | 17:38 |
| paultag | Ctrl+e = ascii 0x05 = ENQ(uery) | 17:39 |
| huats | czajkowski: of course I have seen it | 17:54 |
| huats | Castres is quite close fromToulouse :) | 17:54 |
