| philipballew | bkerensa, I imagine more will see that email monday morning | 04:53 |
|---|---|---|
| bkerensa | philipballew: Blame me | 04:53 |
| bkerensa | =/ | 04:53 |
| philipballew | its all good bkerensa | 04:53 |
| philipballew | it seems like a smart idea to ask what a good method is for this event | 04:56 |
| philipballew | are you the only one from Oregon coming? | 04:56 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: I am the only Ubuntu Member from Oregon coming that I know of but we do have 20+ Canonical Employees here | 04:59 |
| philipballew | do all Canonical employees come? | 05:00 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: My understanding is that its compulsory yes | 05:00 |
| philipballew | nice! yeah, the guy I run a ubuntu hour with has a job with them | 05:01 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: Some bring their spouses too and for some they also do sprints or special gatherings after UDS | 05:01 |
| philipballew | i imagine sf is a nice place to do that | 05:02 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: I like to think our Canonical folks are the Wizards and Rockstars of Ubuntu | 05:02 |
| bkerensa | :) | 05:02 |
| bkerensa | we have some really really talented people up here | 05:02 |
| bkerensa | sadly one of them is moving to California soon | 05:02 |
| * philipballew thinks bkerensa is a wizard and rockstar | 05:03 | |
| philipballew | do any Canonical people come to your events? | 05:03 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: I am not even in the same galaxy as these people ;) it would take me a lifetime to catch up | 05:03 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: yes | 05:03 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: Steve Langasek did a talk at our Global Jam https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9aQA18ZbmU | 05:04 |
| philipballew | bkerensa, seriously, I was trying to listen to my friend talk about the linux kernel to me. My head hurt after | 05:04 |
| bkerensa | and so did Brian Murray who is the Bugmaster for Ubuntu | 05:04 |
| bkerensa | well apparently Linus Torvalds use to live like a few minutes from me but I never saw or met the guy | 05:04 |
| bkerensa | ;p | 05:04 |
| bkerensa | he still apparently lives there but I have never seen him nor has anyone I know :D | 05:05 |
| bkerensa | apparently he hides | 05:05 |
| philipballew | he lives in Portland. and apperently untill a week ago ran open suse. He probably can hide in plain sight easily | 05:05 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: He lives in Lake Oswego apparently which is Portland Metro area but a different town | 05:06 |
| bkerensa | :D | 05:06 |
| bkerensa | houses in LO start at like 1-2 million a pop at the cheap range | 05:06 |
| philipballew | i make 8.45 an hour with my job | 05:06 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: :D | 05:07 |
| philipballew | wonder why he chose portland though | 05:07 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: no idea but the Linux Foundation used to be in Beaverton | 05:08 |
| bkerensa | so I imagine it had something to do with that | 05:08 |
| philipballew | its a nice place, but a guy from Finland seems like a odd thing, | 05:08 |
| philipballew | the linux conf is in ca this year | 05:08 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: yeah san diego | 05:08 |
| bkerensa | :D | 05:08 |
| bkerensa | Dreamhost is having a party in Portland next Thursday | 05:09 |
| bkerensa | :D | 05:09 |
| bkerensa | I hope to go | 05:09 |
| philipballew | i live there like 80 percent of the time bkerensa its a really nice area | 05:09 |
| philipballew | i will be there probably | 05:09 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: nice | 05:10 |
| philipballew | im in Sacramento now, but thats only to help out the folks this past week | 05:10 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: http://www.wweek.com/portland/article-18897-lake_affront.html | 05:38 |
| bkerensa | that talks about Lake Oswego | 05:39 |
| bkerensa | :D | 05:39 |
| philipballew | i wonder if he has even been to say a lug or anything like that bkerensa | 05:41 |
| philipballew | portland has a lug | 05:41 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: We have a two :) one is PLUG and the other is PDXLUG :) they have this huge rift where PLUG is lead by someone who PDXLUG says use the LUG to leverage his company and make sales :) and PDXLUG says they are just for geeks :) | 05:42 |
| philipballew | what do you like? | 05:42 |
| bkerensa | But I do not think Linus has ever been to any lug or linux events locally and I do not think he ever will | 05:42 |
| philipballew | he might get yelled at | 05:42 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: I do not like either :) PLUG is annoyingly corporate and PDXLUG has much trolling so I just stick with the Ubuntu folks ;) | 05:43 |
| philipballew | ive never been to the lug in sd. its at night and i only have a bike | 05:43 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: Apparently he once said he would never go to a user group event again and supposedly he does not like events at all | 05:43 |
| philipballew | and about 15 miles away | 05:43 |
| philipballew | he' | 05:44 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: I know a guy who rides his bike from Portland to Crater Lake and back in two days | 05:44 |
| philipballew | hes a pretty nice person though i think | 05:44 |
| bkerensa | Its about 278 miles one way | 05:45 |
| bkerensa | :D | 05:45 |
| bkerensa | and the guy is a linux user :) | 05:45 |
| philipballew | if Canonical emails me saying they want to take me up on my uds or bust idea, i might have to do that same thing | 05:45 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: what is that? | 05:46 |
| bkerensa | oh I highly doubt they will | 05:46 |
| bkerensa | :) | 05:46 |
| philipballew | yeah! it would be funny, but i thought the people reading my app would laugh | 05:46 |
| bkerensa | philipballew: I wonder what criteria they use to approve apps | 05:47 |
| bkerensa | I know people who have been to quite a few UDSes as sponsored attendees | 05:47 |
| philipballew | as do i | 05:48 |
| philipballew | good friends of mine | 05:48 |
| bkerensa | I asked someone if they were coming to this UDS and they didnt know but are going to the November one and suggest I apply for that one too but I dont think I will go to UDS too often | 05:49 |
| bkerensa | :D | 05:49 |
| bkerensa | or even apply for that matter | 05:49 |
| philipballew | i have school in november, maybe i can take off. Ill need to see | 05:51 |
| philipballew | i never plan far ahead | 05:51 |
| pleia2 | broder: thanks for submitting that bug | 20:10 |
| pleia2 | when I realized the ssl issue was the font I thought "I should report that" and then didn't | 20:10 |
