[00:49] <Budget> Possibly stupid question, but I've heard that there is a meeting at Commons Coffee Salem.  I've come across some conflicting information, is it weekly or monthly?
[00:53] <albrigha> Budget, c_smith can help with that
[00:54] <albrigha> Budget, and that's not a stupid question!
[00:55] <Budget> I was being paranoid that I had missed something on a website somewhere that specified it.
[01:01] <albrigha> I haven't looked directly..I'm up in pdx. lemme see if I can find out some info for ya
[01:03] <albrigha> c_smith, bkerensa was the salem coffee hour going to be added to the loco page? for some reason i thought it was..
[01:25] <albrigha> Budget, well, i'm sure the will see our conversation later. we could try making fun of them and see if that gets their attention tho
[01:29] <Budget> Unfortunately, I don't really know anyone here well enough to make fun of them, but it's a good idea.
[01:30] <albrigha> bkerensa, you don't get enough sleep!
[01:30] <albrigha> not sure if that will help.
[01:31] <albrigha> you are in salem Budget ?
[01:31] <albrigha> i don't think i've seen you before, but i'm guessing you've been around before
[01:31] <Budget> Nope, I'm new.
[01:32] <albrigha> cool!
[01:32] <albrigha> afk sec brb
[01:37] <iBkerensa> albrigha: i know
[01:38] <albrigha> iBkerensa, hey Budget was wondering if the meetings in salem are once a week/monthly etc..and i have no idea..i thought it was on the loco page but it's not
[01:39] <albrigha> eh well someday we might find out
[01:39] <albrigha> Budget, how long have you been using ubuntu/interested?
[01:40] <Budget> I've been fiddling with it for about 6 months, but I only really started to use it about a month ago when I set up a dual boot on my laptop.
[01:40] <albrigha> nice
[01:40] <albrigha> good start
[01:41] <albrigha> eventually you'll ditch windows :) well, i predict. but i could be wrong
[01:41] <albrigha> how are you liking it?
[01:41] <albrigha> questions?
[01:44] <Budget> I'm liking it.  I installed it on my very slow laptop and it is running much faster.
[01:44] <albrigha> cool cool
[01:44] <albrigha> do you work with computers? something else?
[01:46] <Budget> I'm studying programing and almost have my Bachelor's degree, which makes me sound better than I am.
[01:51] <albrigha> what are you learning to program? I'm working on python myself.
[01:54] <Budget> Mostly Java, C#, and SQL, but I'm teaching myself to program Python and programming on Android.
[01:56] <albrigha> awesome!
[01:57] <albrigha> if you'd be interested..i have a friend that teaches at pcc that's been helping me. he does other languages as well. I'm going to try and convince him to do a talk or something.
[01:58] <albrigha> but anyone interested in python that's looking for a group sort of effort sounds like fun!
[01:59] <Budget> A talk in IRC or in person?
[01:59] <albrigha> he has this rather consistent affection for microsoft though.
[01:59] <albrigha> both perhaps
[02:01] <albrigha> art night!?!?
[02:01] <albrigha> i really need to spend some time getting to know Mark.
[02:15] <Budget> Well, it has been fun talking but I have to go.
[03:16]  * albrigha yawn stretch 
[04:14] <c_smith> albrigha, I just noticed I was mentioned, I was playing Cavestory+
[04:15] <c_smith> so, what could I help Budget with?
[04:17] <c_smith> albrigha you here?
[05:07] <c_smith> albrigha, you here?
[15:08] <albrigha> c_smith, hey it's cool :) budget was wanting to come to the salem ubuntu hour and couldn't find out when / how often it was
[15:08] <albrigha> to be fair..i look as well and had a hard time figuring that out too
[16:33] <bkerensa> Well Feature Freeze seems to have been not pretty precise
[16:33] <bkerensa> :D
[16:33] <bkerensa> a good portion of my applications are now bugging on 12.04 if not fully defunct
[16:33] <bkerensa> :D
[16:33] <bkerensa> albrigha: QA time eh? :P
[16:35] <bkerensa> blkperl: Remind me which build again at PSU?
[16:37] <blkperl> bkerensa: FAB/EB
[16:37] <blkperl> bkerensa: did you want to stop by at 4 and see?
[16:38] <bkerensa> blkperl: Well if I come today it will be a early trip because I have to be back here by afternoon I have a Mentorship meeting with cweber10  and then later a video conference
[16:38] <bkerensa> :D
[16:39] <albrigha> bkerensa, yeah work work. darn slave drivers
[16:40] <bkerensa> blkperl: PSU actually has a event going today that I really wanted to go to but I highly doubt I could make it happen without cancelling on cweber10 and I dont wanna do that
[16:40] <bkerensa> :D
[16:40] <bkerensa> Herb Sorensen is gonna be a PSU today
[16:40] <bkerensa> :D
[16:40] <bkerensa> :(
[16:40] <blkperl> yep
[16:40] <albrigha> who is that? should i know the name?
[16:41] <blkperl> http://calagator.org/events/1250461971
[16:41] <blkperl> hmm wrong day
[16:42] <blkperl> or not...
[16:42] <blkperl> 2/17 3pm
[16:43] <bkerensa> Yesterday when Comcast came my neighbor asked afterwards.... "I figured since your into tech and all you would just download movies and such"
[16:43] <bkerensa> "I have been doing everyday for years"
[16:43] <bkerensa> :D
[16:43] <bkerensa> I informed him I use Netflix and Spotify :D
[16:44] <bkerensa> albrigha: He just has done a lot in tech biz
[16:44] <bkerensa> :D
[16:44] <bkerensa> blkperl: We need Guy Kawasaki to come to Portland
[16:50] <albrigha> ahh cool
[17:17] <cweber10> bkerensa: If you have stuff to do that is ok this week has been bad, and it is the last week we officaly have mentors. This week has been crazy busy.
[17:18] <bkerensa> cweber10: Busy? Well I do hope you will stay on with us even after the term?
[17:18] <bkerensa> :)
[17:18] <bkerensa> we got global jam coming up in a few weeks
[17:18] <bkerensa> :D
[17:19] <cweber10> ohh yea I am not going anywhere for a while, and still plan on saying hi just next week you are going to be talked to by an other set of students
[17:19] <cweber10> We are looking at trying to get at least a small group to call pool for the global jam
[17:20] <bkerensa> cweber10: Yeah :) It was very unfortunate that I had to move so abruptly but we couldnt pass up on this new place :)
[17:20] <bkerensa> we literally made a decision to move two days after finding the place :)
[17:21] <bkerensa> cweber10: Well it looks like we should have slangasek and bdmurray at global jam which will be excellent because they both are devs at Canonical and have different roles
[17:22] <bkerensa> :)
[17:22] <bkerensa> slangasek: Where might I seek a sponsor btw? :)
[17:22] <slangasek> a sponsor?
[17:22] <cweber10> bkerensa: Life happens i am not that woried about it. Getting involved is not easy to get started, then I have all the other school stuff I need to do
[17:22] <slangasek> I thought you're the one with the sponsorship contacts :)
[17:23] <bkerensa> slangasek: I responded to a RFA and the current maintainer asked if I have a DD sponsor
[17:23] <bkerensa> :)
[17:23] <slangasek> oh, package sponsorship
[17:23] <bkerensa> Not that kind :P
[17:23] <bkerensa> indeed
[17:23] <slangasek> http://mentors.debian.net/
[17:25] <bkerensa> slangasek: But that is for per upload basis not ongoing by one sponsor?
[17:25] <bkerensa> Here is what he asked: "Thanks for the interest. Are you a DD or do you have a willing
[17:25] <bkerensa> sponsor for this package?
[17:25] <bkerensa> "
[17:25] <slangasek> bkerensa: yes, it's for per-upload basis; that's really the best way to go about it
[17:25] <bkerensa> hmm
[17:26] <bkerensa> slangasek: Does Debian offer per-package-upload privileges like Ubuntu?
[17:26] <slangasek> unless it's a package that some DD has a particular interest in helping maintain
[17:26] <slangasek> yes
[17:29] <bkerensa> slangasek: I doubt anyone has interest in it... Movable Type
[17:29] <bkerensa> :)
[17:29] <slangasek> I wouldn't know :)
[17:38] <albrigha> bkerensa, did you see the conversation about the salem hour?
[17:39] <albrigha> and harvest?
[17:40] <bkerensa> albrigha: Yes... c_smith runs it every Friday night... Not sure if he is doing one tonight
[17:41] <albrigha> oh every friday
[17:41] <albrigha> it seemed like it was hard to find that info...should that be on the loco even cal?
[17:42] <bkerensa> loco.u.c
[17:42] <bkerensa> c_smith: If you are doing a Ubuntu Hour tonight can you please add it and maybe add the event each monday if you plan to hold one? Thanks!
[23:47] <bkerensa> TIL that cleaning Dryer vents is dirty and re-attaching the metal hose and clamp is not fun
[23:47] <bkerensa> :D
[23:47] <cweber10> No it is not, I hate dealing with stuff like that
[23:50] <bkerensa> cweber10: Yeah and I found out I'm using about 92 kWh per day ($9.2 per day) of electric
[23:53] <cweber10> Yea, always good to see what you can try to improve things.
