[03:40] <mhall119> paultag: there was a Java curses-based UI toolkit at one point
[03:41] <paultag> mhall119: that only makes it worse ;)
[03:41] <mhall119> it matched the Swing API, so you could just replace javax.swing with it's namespace in your imports, and suddently your Swing app is a curses app
[03:41] <paultag> hahaha
[03:41] <paultag> that's great!
[03:41] <mhall119> but I never got it working right
[03:41] <mhall119> still, I thought it was clever at the time
[03:42] <mhall119> paultag: did you see http://mhall119.com/2012/02/singlet-quickly-better-faster-simpler/
[03:42] <paultag> mhall119: I missed it
[03:42] <mhall119> it's been on planet for minutes! how could you miss it?
[03:42] <paultag> got it up now though
[03:42] <paultag> oh hahaha
[03:42] <paultag> erm, if it loads
[03:43] <mhall119> oh no, is my t1.micro being beaten down again?
[03:43] <mhall119> damn search bots
[03:43] <mhall119> I need to make a robots.txt or something
[03:43] <mhall119> give it 30 minutes and it'll be fine again
[03:44] <paultag> mhall119: if search bots take down your box, you're doing it wrong
[03:44] <paultag> :)
[03:44] <mhall119> paultag: Amazon rate-limits the CPU when apache starts doing even a little bit or work
[03:44] <mhall119> that's what you get for $15/month
[03:45] <mhall119> I need to start looking at rackspace and others
[03:45] <paultag> mhall119: for 5 more a month you could have a linode
[03:46] <mhall119> is that cloud of vhost?
[03:46] <mhall119> s/of/or/
[03:47] <paultag> mhall119: VPS
[03:47] <mhall119> I like the flexibility of a cloud host
[03:47] <mhall119> though admittedly I rarely use it
[03:47] <mhall119> maybe I should just switch to octopress like Jorge did
[03:48] <mhall119> no apache, no php, no wordpress
[04:02] <paultag> I'm fairly OK with the blogging software out there
[04:02] <paultag> all I need is a decent window manager, text editor, and mail client
[08:50] <marcus> hi all. I am trying to add an event to the loco calender. while creating the event it says Local Start Time but afterwards the time is displayed as utc. how can i change this, or do i have to set the time in utc?
[09:22] <marcus> ah, and it's not only displayed as utc, but also rendered this way
[11:06] <YoBoY> marcus: hi, the timezone of the venue is correct ?
[11:52] <marcus> YoBoY, thanks for the hint, that was the reason ;)
[11:53] <YoBoY> you're welcome :)
[15:16] <marcus> YoBoY, could it be that the location is not rendered into ical?
[15:26] <bkerensa> marcus: There was a bug at one point where I was having issues with timezones but not sure if it still exists
[15:27] <mhall119> marcus: is this the loco.ubuntu.com ical feed?
[15:28] <marcus> the tz problem could be solved with the tip from YoBoy, but the location is not rendered into the ical, e.g. loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-swiss-users/1556/detail/ical
[15:30] <mhall119> marcus: the times should be right in the ical though, once you set the venue's timezone
[15:30] <mhall119> it'll convert it from the venue's localtime to UTC
[15:31] <mhall119> so people's calendar apps can convert it from UTC to their own localtime
[15:31] <mhall119> marcus: you can file a bug against the loco-team-portal project on launchpad to have Location: fields added to the ical
[15:50] <marcus> ok
[15:51] <marcus> there is already one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/loco-team-portal/+bug/793557
[15:51] <ubot2`> Launchpad bug 793557 in loco-team-portal "iCal events do not show location" [Undecided,Confirmed]
