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