[07:48] <dholbach> good morning
[07:52] <nigelb> Morning dholbach!
[07:52] <nigelb> Good to be back home?
[08:00] <dholbach> hey nigelb
[08:00] <dholbach> nigelb, at my parents' place now, but I should be going to Berlin soon
[08:00] <nigelb> ah :)
[08:01] <nigelb> Are you doing the long drive this time as well?
[08:01] <dholbach> yes, again I have too much stuff with me to take the train or fly
[08:02] <nigelb> heh, fun!
[09:09] <czajkowski> aloha
[09:09] <dholbach> heya czajkowski
[09:09] <czajkowski> dholbach: ello hows you ?
[09:10] <dholbach> got a cold, but I'm alright - how are you?
[09:11] <czajkowski> not too bad
[12:18] <dholbach> does anybody anybody they could ask to give a session at UDW? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDeveloperWeek/Timetable :)
[13:02]  * dholbach hugs daker :)
[13:03] <daker> ツ
[13:06] <mhall119> good morning
[13:07] <nigelb> I'm completely confused with Britan. http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2012/jan/15/queen-royal-yacht-diamond-jubilee-gove
[13:12] <mhall119> nigelb: heh
[13:12]  * mhall119 loves his republic
[13:14] <Pendulum> nigelb: really it comes down to the Education Minister being out of touch
[13:14] <Pendulum> nigelb: if you look at more recent things, even Cameron has distanced himself from this one
[13:14] <nigelb> Pendulum: The article talks about schools having no money. And in such a situation, its kinda stupid.
[13:15] <Pendulum> nigelb: that's an understatement
[13:15] <nigelb> heh
[13:18] <nigelb> Only today it hit me why Casablanca was so familiar.
[13:18] <nigelb> Despite hearing about dholbach being in Casablanca last week.
[13:19] <Pendulum> haha
[13:20] <nigelb> I'm sad he didn't make any references to the movie on his blog post :P
[13:27] <dholbach> daker, how much is Casablanca like the movie? :)
[13:28] <mhall119> well, there was a german there ;)
[13:28] <nigelb> haha
[13:28] <dholbach> plus I never saw the movie :)
[13:29] <nigelb> I've only seen parts of it :(
[13:29] <mhall119> I can just imagine daker, being caught by dholbach, saying "I'm shocked! Shocked I tell you, to find windows installed on this laptop"
[13:29] <dholbach> ok, now I'm officially lacking a few references
[13:30] <mhall119> that's about all I know
[13:30] <dholbach> suffice it to say that there were no laptops, no Windows and nothing shocking involved :)
[13:30] <nigelb> The only one I know is "Of all the gin joints, in all the towns, in all the world, she walks into mine. "
[13:31] <mhall119> dholbach: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SjbPi00k_ME
[13:35] <dholbach> haha
[13:35] <dholbach> at least the movie seems to be source of a lot of quotes :)
[13:36] <czajkowski> very famous movie, my dad loves it, I think I've seen it about a dozen times
[13:37] <mhall119> dholbach: happy birthday, by the way
[13:37] <dholbach> thanks mhall119
[13:39] <daker> no no mhall119 : "I'm shocked! Shocked I tell you, this ATM didn't give me back my credit card" :D dholbach
[13:39] <mhall119> whoops?
[13:40] <mhall119> I hate the kind that take them inside, I've left one in before :(
[13:40] <dholbach> daker, HAHAHA, yes
[13:41] <daker> mhall119, that's not the case ツ
[13:41] <mhall119> credit cards in general are horribly thought out security-wise
[13:42] <dholbach> mhall119, I was convinced for a couple of minutes that the machine had eaten my card, then found that I had already put it back into my wallet
[13:42] <nigelb> haha
[13:42] <dholbach> it was a bit embarrassing :)
[13:42] <mhall119> dholbach: lol
[13:42] <dholbach> I blame it on lack of sleep
[13:42] <dholbach> but anyway, all good in the end :)
[13:43] <daker> YES!
[13:45] <dholbach> can anybody help me translate "tchimbé rèd pa moli boug mwen"? :)
[13:46] <dholbach> I have no idea what it's supposed to mean, but it coming from Samuel Pamphile, it might be something in the local dialect they speak in Martinique
[14:22] <james_w> happy birthday dholbach
[14:27] <dholbach> thanks james_w
[14:30]  * balloons sings happy birthday to dholbach, albeit off key
[14:30] <nigelb> Just make sure AOL doesn't sue you :P
[14:31] <dholbach> haha
[14:31] <dholbach> thanks balloons :)

[14:34] <balloons> wow.. its all fun and games tell someone infringes
[14:35] <balloons> it is interesting we give copyright holders almost 100 years before its public domain. seems a bit off
[14:36] <mhall119> didn't used to be that long
[14:37] <balloons> yea.. patents used to mean something too.. heh
[14:38] <nigelb> well, its been extended
[14:38] <nigelb> and they're milking out 2 million per year
[15:12] <s-fox> Hello.
[15:46] <akgraner> jcastro you around?
[15:46] <akgraner> or are you off today?
[15:52] <balloons> akgraner, i believe he is off, but ?
[15:53] <akgraner> balloons, ok no worries I figure as much , but thought I'd try :-)
[15:53] <s-fox> USA bank holiday
[15:53] <akgraner> yep
[15:54] <s-fox> All my clients over there are not working, having a lax Monday :-)
[15:54] <akgraner> yeah - I am supposed to be having a lax Monday as well. I think I look for reason to work sometimes and my tiredness and busyness is a product of my own making
[15:54] <akgraner> yeah I can own it :-)
[15:55] <s-fox> Going to knock off early, going to finish at 5 :-)
[15:55] <akgraner> isn't that sad when we "knock off early" to end on time :-)
[15:56] <s-fox> Haha, well I usually work later than that. Anywher from 6-9 at night haha
[15:59] <akgraner> ahh
[16:00] <s-fox> I work to the job, not the clock, if that makes any sense
[16:00] <akgraner> Someone asked me over the weekend what I do to relax I said, Ubuntu they laughed at me and said, no seriously Amber how do you relax.  :-/
[16:01] <akgraner> s-fox, makes complete sense to me
[16:01] <s-fox> akgraner,  Do you have any hobbies outside of computers and such ?
[16:02] <akgraner> I used to :-) I make quilts from time to time still though.
[16:02] <s-fox> Awesome
[16:02] <akgraner> and crochet
[16:03] <akgraner> but not as well as maco does but I like it
[16:03] <s-fox> I bet that kills the hours
[16:08] <balloons> crocheted blankets are awesome.. so cool looking and really keep you warm :-)
[16:26] <akgraner> :-) that they are
[16:30] <dholbach> balloons, you were just mentioned in #ubuntu-meeting (certification team meeting)
[16:30] <dholbach> (not sure they need you, just thought I'd pass it in on)
[16:30] <balloons> dholbach, thanks
[16:30] <balloons> I don't usually idle all day in there
[16:31] <balloons> I'm not sure I know anyone (yet) from the cert team
[16:31] <dholbach> they're all nice people :)
 ACTION: Ara to contact Nicholas Skaggs (balloons) to introduce the Ubuntu Friendly community
[16:32] <dholbach> it seems this problem is going to be solved :)
[16:32] <balloons> sweet
[16:59] <s-fox> Goodbye.
[17:00] <dholbach> hey jono
[17:00] <jono> hey dholbach
[17:00] <jono> dpm, dholbach, jcastro_, balloons everyone get back safe and sound?

[17:01] <jono> dholbach, cool :-)
[17:05] <dpm> jono, yep, got back all in one piece. How was the opera? :)
[17:05] <jono> dpm, it was...the opera :-)
[17:05] <jono> it was a fun experience
[17:05] <dpm> :)
[17:05] <jono> not my kind of music, but fun to go for sure
[17:05] <jono> it could have been improved with a little slayer
[17:05] <jono> or pantera :-)
[17:06] <balloons> yea.. got back.. though my long layover got longer when my flight got delayed
[17:08] <dpm> oh, bummer
[17:16] <pleia2> mhall119: your blog is down (we were hoping to include one of your Ubuntu TV posts in UWN)
[17:17] <snap-l> jono: Which opera did you go see?
[17:19] <popey> snap-l: we went to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vienna_State_Opera
[17:19] <snap-l> Right, but what did they play? :)
[17:21] <popey> http://www.viennaconcerts.com/eventinfo/18100/14-Jan-2012,-19:00,-LA-FORZA-DEL-DESTINO,-Vienna-State-Opera
[17:21] <popey> that
[17:21] <snap-l> Ah, Verdi
[17:22] <snap-l> I'm not much of a fan of opera either, but that sounds pretty cool
[17:22] <balloons> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_forza_del_destino
[17:24]  * snap-l isn't a complete rube. I subscribe to BBC Music Magazine. ;)
[17:27] <snap-l> http://www.archive.org/details/Caruso-LaForzaDelDestino
[17:27] <balloons> snap-l, cool :-)
[17:27] <balloons> can't hurt to play the overture anyway
[17:28] <snap-l> Yeah, not seeing it in the usual locations (magnatune, archive.org)
