[00:00] nathwill: we need to road trip to Mexico and outsource our problem :P [00:00] nafta baby [00:00] knew it was good for somethign [00:00] wow my fingers are retarded today [00:00] nathwill: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Memorex+-+CD/DVD+LabelMaker+Expert+Kit/6882153.p;jsessionid=CA3E38BE9CC2C51677B923BAC37B97D6.bbolsp-app01-21?id=1095432401805&skuId=6882153 [00:00] bkerensa's tiny URL is http://tinyurl.com/7b9zxwd [00:01] if we could find something like that but that uses Nix [00:01] that would be great [00:01] and cost effective [00:01] well there's already great cd-cover graphic designing software on nix [00:02] the trick is: a) burner w/ master and several replicators, and b) a press that doesn't suck [00:02] a is wicked expensive [00:07] nathwill: what if we crowd funded it? [00:07] we have 100 members [00:07] yeah... [00:07] if everyone chipped in it might make it easier idk [00:08] hey folks, can you bring a couple cds [00:08] i dunno what that would accomplish though [00:08] it's mostly members who're interested in cds? [00:08] no I mean crowd fund a replication tower and label maker [00:08] except for the events, like oscon [00:08] oh [00:08] well... [00:08] when can we apply for membership again? [00:08] i think that's a better fix [00:08] nathwill: thats a good question because reviewing their irc logs they said a few months during discussion but when they voted they said 6+ [00:09] hrm... [00:09] which is imho ridiculous because I think we were given a unfair shake [00:09] this is how often they do loco membership reviews? [00:09] circa 6 mo. cycle? [00:09] yeah [00:09] likely they want us to wait a entire cycle [00:09] or more [00:13] nathwill: as it is PSU alone seems like they could get 100 CD's out per cycle [00:13] i think... [00:14] i'm emailing myself the link to the approval criteria [00:14] and i will go through it tonite [00:14] because my initial impression is that we meet the revised criteria [00:14] nathwill: Yes [00:14] We meet the revised and honestly met the old criteria [00:15] alright... lemme see what i can figure out tonite... i'll jam with you on it some once i get home and eat some dinner' [00:15] deener [00:19] no doubt [00:19] thanks [00:39] slangasek: I was not aware Canonical waived shipping cost on CD's that is pretty nice [00:40] oh because they are pre-order only right now [00:44] well, the pre-order status and the free shipping are unrelated [00:44] Hmm thats really cool indeed then [00:44] :D [00:45] Wish free shipping for all things :P [00:46] so once you start adding in label printing, sleeves, wear'n'tear on the CD burner, I think you're going to be hard-pressed to beat that price [00:48] :) [00:48] slangasek: Yes but who's price is it to pay ;) [00:48] hmm? [00:48] * bkerensa is not going to pay $200 :) [00:49] maybe I would contribute $50 [00:49] :P [00:49] that's fair, I wouldn't pay $200 either ;) [00:49] I thought the community team was showering you with CDs anyway? [00:50] slangasek: well we only had the 11.10's and I got the rest of those out to PSU because they burned through them fast [00:50] sure [00:50] slangasek: I could beg Jono or jcastro for a box of 12.04 but I am not sure its going to work :P [00:50] it might, I don't know [00:57] alright, shift's over. catch y'all later! [01:01] heyo [01:01] * c_smith is here at the Ubuntu hour, JVLB isn't going to show up, car problems for him. [01:09] hmmmmm, kinda dead here. [01:18] c_smith: its always dead here :) [01:19] The nature of developers and geeks :) busy at work [01:19] plus it is Friday evening so most people are out to dinner or drinks or with their family [01:21] true. [01:37] bkerensa, I have been told that I might be getting a few servers (the guy got a building that supposedly had them in there, and he doesn't need them) would a machine like that be suitable for making a CLI only Media Server? [01:37] if a CLI only Media server exists, that is. [01:47] c_smith: You do not need GUI for a media server [01:48] ??? I never said GUI. [01:48] c_smith: but at the same thing I hope you are prepared for the electric costs associated with running a server at home :) [01:48] CLI, Command Line Interface. [01:48] and potentially blowing a breaker if you have to much amps on a circuit [01:48] eh, My proctor parents aren't even happy leaving lights on in a room a person is returning to in less than 30 seconds. [01:49] c_smith: Correct you asked if a CLI only media server exists and I said you do not need GUI for a Media Server hence yes CLI is possible [01:49] Servers in general are not meant to have gui [01:49] so I may end up just salvaging parts from said servers. [01:49] * c_smith wonders if certain parts of a server can be implanted into a Desktop PC [01:49] c_smith: I am not totally sure how much it would cost but I would bet about $25 a month extra just in electric [01:50] and during the summer whatever room its in would be very uncomfortable [01:51] c_smith: depends what kind of server? They do make servers in a tower form factor [01:51] in fact a tower form factor server probably wouldnt ding you too bad on electric [01:51] eh, servers to me would be unusable due to very very finicky people when it comes to cost controlling the electricity. [01:51] but if your going to move a 1U into your bedroom expect lots of heat and a new found love on your power bill :) [01:52] I don't control my power bill, so like I said, servers would end up being unusable. [01:52] and noise [01:52] and the guy in charge wakes up really easily. [01:53] sbeattie: yeah :) [01:53] a nice constant hum [01:53] all of the downsides you are mentioning point to the guy ending up shutting it off before the first week is over. [01:53] c_smith: What is the latest you can do a Ubuntu Hour at night? [01:53] When I get back from UDS I was thinking about driving down for a Salem Ubuntu Hour but there is no way I could be there by 6pm [01:53] bkerensa: as an ex-sysadmin, one of the most frightening sounds I've ever heard was our server room completely silent because of a power outage. [01:54] The latest? probably 7AM and ending a 8PM, maybe later if I get it okayed. [01:54] the earliest I think I could be to Salem is 8pm firm [01:54] Let me call someone to see if that is doable. [01:54] sbeattie: Yeah I have worked in dc's and was a sysadmin for my school district after high school [01:54] :D [01:55] hopefully I get an answer. [01:56] if they even pick up the phone. >.> [01:56] aaaandd.... no answer, dod [01:56] didn't even pick up the phone. >.< [01:56] curse this enter key. [02:01] bkerensa, I got an answer, not a 100% for sure one, but the answer I got was it is possible, but I will have a 100% certain answer tomorrow, do you want me to email you then? [02:04] bkerensa, I'll have an answer tomorrow, do you want me to shoot you an email then? [02:04] yes [02:04] * bkerensa is gone for dinner [02:04] kk, [02:04] then I'm out, cya,. [02:44] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DIYMarketing#A12.04_artwork === nathwill is now known as nathwill_gone_to === nathwill_gone_to is now known as nathwill [15:38] where is the best place to get .iso file of newest 12.04 [15:39] was thinking of trying a new install an this machine again. [15:39] right now it is playing havoc with dual monitors...pretty much unusable [16:00] TRAVISg: http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/ has the daily images [16:00] thanks
