InHisNamecythes: maybe its time to pick place in Pottstown and just walk there and back.01:57
cythesInHisName: Not a bad idea.03:25
InHisNameAt least we have one kick off party in our area.03:27
cythesInHisName: you live local?03:28
InHisNameI do, but I have 2 foster kids < 5 yrs.  I have a once a month break from kids on 3r sat for PACS mtg.03:30
cythesHmm so we could plan a place that is child friendly... Like Friendly's in pottstown03:34
InHisNameUnfortunately if my attention leaves one for 0.5 sec, their behaviour deteriorates rapidly.03:37
cythesDamn well I could post it up on the forums and see if there are any takers.03:39
InHisNameEver try a conversation in bird house at zoo with all the screeching birds ?  Kinder to your ears if they don't come.03:39
InHisNameSure thing!03:39
InHisNameThere's at least one more lives there, plus several nearby.  You could easily go over 3-5, and that'd be a decent crowd.03:41
passstabrelease party?03:45
cythesYeah passstab I was thinking of one... since I have not been to one in forever / would be cool to start one lol03:45
passstabsounds fun03:46
cythesyeah trying to get an idea of how many people would come.03:46
passstabwhat date?03:46
* passstab dosn't actually use ubu ;)03:47
passstabmeebe you could do it in a park?03:48
cythespassstab: General linux party with a focus on ubuntu lol03:49
* passstab needs to go to sleep in order not to be yelled at03:49
passstabyes i know03:49
passstabmy point was i don't know the date03:49
InHisNameIf you want CDs to hand out, they may not be 'here' until early May or so.03:50
passstabgnight03:51
cythesWell if I do do a party... I think Limrick Lanes would be something fun :)05:08
* cythes goes to sleep / to think about the idea05:09

ChinnoDogwaltman: omg. I just thought of an extremely practical use for using that LaTeX editor you pointed me to14:04
ChinnoDogI have a Sharepoint wiki at work. Formatting in Sharepoint sucks like you would not believe is possible. I could write my wiki pages in LaTeX and then export to HTML14:04
JonathanDheh :)14:05
ChinnoDogI mean, it defeats the point of the wiki, but I have no choice in the matter14:05
JonathanD.93514:06
ChinnoDogWhat is that?14:06
JonathanDa window number where I put a . in front instead of a /14:06
ChinnoDogYou have 935 windows?14:07
JonathanD959, actually.14:07
JonathanDI should probably close a few, eh? :)14:08
ChinnoDogprobably14:09
waltmanChinnoDog: then you'll have 2 problems :)14:23
waltmanmaybe I didn't make it clear that I wrote that myself in about 2 minutes :)14:23
waltmanoh, you're talking about Lyx, not my blog post yesterday!14:24
waltmandoes sharepoint use markdown? if so, there are any number of gui markdown editors.14:24
ChinnoDogwaltman: no, it does not use markdown. It is wysiwyg. Problem is, what I see is garbage.14:28
adomJonathanD: 959 windows in what? in irssi? in your window manager? this has peaked my interest.14:29
JonathanDadom: irssi.14:29
adomthat's extremely excessive14:29
adomwhat are all the windows for?14:30
JonathanDMostly people who PM me, and I never close.14:30
adomahhh14:30
JonathanDEvery now and then I'll go close a few hundred.14:30
JonathanDand about 160 actual channels.14:30
JonathanDI haven't counted in a while.14:30
adomwhy do people PM you so often? and why so many channels open? bot stuff?14:30
* JonathanD is network staff.14:30
adomfor freenode?14:31
JonathanDYes.14:31
adomoh. cool.14:31
adomso, you could probably see my ip even though i have a mask14:31
adom(please don't tell the hackers)14:31
JonathanDI wouldn't tell a soul :)14:31
* adom hugs JonathanD.14:32
JonathanDWe're very particular about what we will and won't disclose to people.14:32
adomwhats it like working for freenode? do you get paid or is it a volunteer thing?14:32
waltmanChinnoDog: this is what I thought you were talking about -- http://www.mawode.com/blog/blog/2012/03/21/finding-duplicate-latex-labels/14:32
JonathanDIt's volunteer, adom.14:32
adomwhat a nice guy14:33
JonathanDIt mostly just means helping folks recover their password or figure out how to use nickserv.14:33
JonathanDAlthough I do some "realworld" freenode stuff in and around philadelphia.14:33
JonathanDgeeknics, fosscon, etc.14:33
adomsweet14:33
JonathanDI'm the only one in this timezone now that jtrucks moved. :)14:33
adomSo, do you like, know ChanServ IRL? He seems unfriendly. XD14:34
JonathanDHe steals cookies. I don't trust him at all.14:34
phatphotonHey there, is there anyone that could help or direct me to help with a hci problem?14:35
ChinnoDogwaltman: do you write in raw LaTeX or do you use an editor?14:35
adomphatphoton: You could try asking your question and if we can help we'll try. However this is a small channel just fyi, you mihgt have more luck in a bigger channel like #ubuntu or ##linux.14:36
phatphotonany help is appreciated, but here it goes14:36
phatphotonI have a bluetooth mouse that used to work with 11.10 and now fails to pair every time. I looked at the hcitdump and it looks like it connects, discovers, authorizes, then disconnects (host command). No idea how to go forward with this.14:38
phatphotonhcidump**14:38
waltmanChinnoDog: Well, I use emacs, but it's raw LaTeX14:38
phatphotonI've also tried both the default manager and the blueman manager14:39
adomphatphoton: what do you mean "used to work with 11.10"? that's the current newest distro if im not mistaken14:40
adomyeah, 12.04 comes out next month14:42
adomwell, the beta is out14:43
phatphotonadom: I've reinstalled a few times in the last month trying to find the most stable system so when I started I had just upgraded to 11.10 and the mouse was working, then I tried Mint 12, 11.10 x64 then back to i38614:46
phatphotonadom: fresh installs each time14:47
adomso ubuntu 11.10 the mouse works fine, but with mint12 it doesnt. correct?14:47
phatphotonI forget if it worked under Mint, It wasnt there long enough to test, but it used to work on 11.10 i386, and now that I reinstalled, it doesnt work14:48
phatphotonthe last time I tried using it, I had to delete some "name - hexaddress" line from some deep file but I cant find the forum post i found that in the first time14:49
adomok. im not much help here. but if i had to guess id say that you probably installed  or edited something on the previous 11.10 installation that you havent done on the new 11.10 installation.14:50
adoma setting, file, or package that you had but you dont now14:50
phatphotonprobably. Do yo know of a channel for the bluez folks or general bluetooth ubuntu?14:50
adomi doubt one exists, but you can always try "/list" or "/join #bluetooth" or something similar14:51
adomdont forget to ask in #ubuntu and ##linux14:51
adomthose are general help channels and full of people14:51
adomjust be patient, answers dont get answered quickly14:51
adomdon't *always* get answered quickly14:52
phatphotonhmm, alright, i'll try those. And I have plenty of laundry to get to so delay isnt the end of it :P14:52
phatphotonadom: thanks for your help!14:52
adomand of course, keep googling14:52
adomno problem good luck14:52
phatphotonthe all mighty google, lulz14:52
phatphotonthanks all!14:52
