| cyphase | anyone going to UDS since it's so close? | 02:44 |
|---|---|---|
| DonkeyHotei | everyone? | 02:45 |
| DonkeyHotei | i registered | 02:45 |
| DonkeyHotei | i think everyone did | 02:45 |
| philipballew | Ill be there | 02:46 |
| philipballew | are you going cyphase | 02:46 |
| cyphase | i just found out it was in oakland today | 02:46 |
| cyphase | i might go for a few days | 02:46 |
| cyphase | i'm not involved in ubuntu development, so i'm not sure how much would be particularly interesting | 02:47 |
| cyphase | there's always the parties though :) | 02:47 |
| philipballew | cyphase, yeah, they announced that last December, you should go | 02:48 |
| philipballew | cyphase, there is free lunch and breakfast | 02:51 |
| cyphase | SOLD! | 02:51 |
| cyphase | ;) | 02:51 |
| akk | Free lunch, really? Cool! | 02:52 |
| * akk probably won't make it there in time for breakfast | 02:52 | |
| cyphase | and attendance is also free, right? just to be sure | 02:55 |
| DonkeyHotei | seems that way | 02:56 |
| akk | yes | 02:56 |
| philipballew | yeah, I need to look into where is good to eat around there? | 02:57 |
| DonkeyHotei | everywhere | 02:58 |
| philipballew | I plan to ride my bike to Berkeley | 02:58 |
| philipballew | they still have not told me who my roomate is. I wonder if I have one | 03:02 |
| DonkeyHotei | you don't pick your own? | 03:02 |
| philipballew | no, they might have given me that option, but they have not told me who mine is yet. I wonder if I just find out then when they walk in the room | 03:04 |
| philipballew | I kinda of like the random idea of meeting someone new | 03:06 |
| Darkwing | I'm flying in on the sunday before :) | 03:43 |
| Darkwing | philipballew: You meet really cool people that way. | 03:43 |
| pleia2 | the breakfast is usually provided by the hotel itself and you have to be staying there | 03:44 |
| pleia2 | in orlando you had to show your room key | 03:45 |
| pleia2 | (I guess you can sneak in, but I wouldn't go around telling everyone there is free breakfast) | 03:45 |
| pleia2 | lunch is free though :) and there tend to be heavy appetizers on mon, tues and friday at the sponsored events | 03:47 |
| pleia2 | and lots of snacks and soft drinks throughout the day | 03:48 |
| pleia2 | too much food really | 03:48 |
| Darkwing | Yeah, for a bunch of people sitting, there is TONS of food. | 04:13 |
| pleia2 | "yes, this is your after lunch snack break" | 04:14 |
| pleia2 | :) | 04:14 |
| pleia2 | though I have to say, the ice cream cart was genius | 04:15 |
| philipballew | pleia2, If someone cant get in, ill take food to them | 04:20 |
| gua | desktops vs laptops | 04:47 |
| gua | all the cool kids use laptops right? | 04:47 |
| pleia2 | well, as a data point, I am not cool and my primary machine is still a desktop | 04:54 |
| gua | hmm | 04:58 |
| bkerensa | =o | 05:00 |
| gua | i want a laptop but the price vs performance is so crazy different | 05:02 |
| Darkwing | hehehe. I have my laptop but, I'm going to re-build my desktop for home use. | 05:02 |
| gua | i'm just used to taking what i'm working on wherever | 05:02 |
| gua | Darkwing: which would be your primary? | 05:02 |
| philipballew | building desktops is fun | 05:03 |
| Darkwing | Yes and no... | 05:03 |
| Darkwing | I'm on the go a LOT. | 05:03 |
| Darkwing | So, it would be a 50/50 mix. | 05:03 |
| Darkwing | My desktop would be a heave video/audio production machine. | 05:03 |
| Darkwing | And prolly my build/package farm. | 05:03 |
| Darkwing | quassel-core would live there too. | 05:04 |
| philipballew | can you just set it up to ssh/vnc into from the laptop? | 05:04 |
| Darkwing | Yup, if needed. | 05:05 |
| gua | i do kind of have a server type thing. inexpensive quad xeon thing, but like 34xx series | 05:05 |
| Darkwing | But, the only thing I would use the DE for is my audio/video work. | 05:06 |
| gua | though i'm always moving my laptop | 05:06 |
| gua | Darkwing: so you'd be on your laptop most of the time right? | 05:06 |
| Darkwing | Aye. | 05:06 |
| Darkwing | That and my tablet. | 05:06 |
| gua | laptops! | 05:07 |
| gua | everybody laptops. except pleia2 who transcends cool. | 05:07 |
| Darkwing | Laptops are awesome but there are things that the laptops just wont do. | 05:07 |
| gua | ehh | 05:08 |
| Darkwing | hehehe... Yeah, pleia2 is so far past cool... I dream about being her when I grow up :P:P | 05:08 |
| gua | portability is a big plus | 05:08 |
| Darkwing | Yes, but there is something to be said for the power of the desktop. | 05:08 |
| Darkwing | Plus, multible monitors. | 05:08 |
| gua | you can totally drive multiple monitors from newerish laptops | 05:09 |
| gua | but yeah power ;/ | 05:09 |
| * gua shakes fish | 05:09 | |
| * gua and fist | 05:09 | |
| Darkwing | My next laptop will be an ultra-book. | 05:09 |
| gua | yeahh | 05:09 |
| Darkwing | I have what you could call a 1st gen ultra-book... or a pre-ultra-book lol | 05:10 |
| Darkwing | Dell Vostro V13. | 05:10 |
| gua | there's that big ultrabook push starting soon. like my upgrade path atm i think will be new laptop -> upgrade desktop -> ultrabook | 05:10 |
| philipballew | linus uses the mac book air iirc | 05:10 |
| gua | i have an ibook 12", not exactly ultrabook but i got it for the portable use case | 05:10 |
| Darkwing | ewwwww... macbook air | 05:10 |
| gua | i was at a best buy earlier tonight and dang, i would not turn down a free air | 05:10 |
| philipballew | I have a ppc mac laptop | 05:10 |
| gua | so thin, and light | 05:11 |
| gua | philipballew: yeah ibook g4. still my primary 'small mobile' | 05:11 |
| philipballew | mines 128 mb of ram | 05:11 |
| philipballew | if anyone has any extra ram ltin around i could bring it back to life | 05:11 |
| gua | ah wow, i maxed out the ram of the ibook back in 04. solid 1.25 GB | 05:12 |
| philipballew | this maxes out at 6 hundred something | 05:12 |
| gua | hmm out of pure luck you might find someone on craigslist, or some 3rd apple repair shop with a pile of old ram | 05:14 |
| philipballew | i went to a apple repair store last year in berkely. wanted 50 bucks... | 05:14 |
| philipballew | not gonna happen | 05:15 |
| gua | ahh | 05:15 |
| gua | yeah apple ram ;/ | 05:15 |
| Darkwing | I got this for 250 bucks on ebay. I have the Core2 duo version and I spent a few extra for 4GB RAM. http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/vostro-v13/pd | 05:20 |
| gua | Darkwing: what do you think of those flatish keys? | 05:33 |
| gua | since i guess all laptops are going island/chiclet style keyboards now | 05:33 |
| philipballew | Any chance of going to bed is lost when the dorm's fire alarms malfunction and go off for 45 minutes straight... | 08:49 |
| gua | no sleep allowed, for your safety | 08:50 |
| philipballew | its finals tomorrow. my guess gua is they want us up and studying | 08:51 |
| gua | haha | 08:51 |
| gua | soothing fire alarm sounds, to help you into deep studying relaxation | 08:52 |
| philipballew | pretty much. It really helps me type this paper | 08:52 |
| gua | you can integrate the experience for later readers. "Legend: "<!>" indicates when the alarm blared"" | 08:54 |
| gua | speaking of not sleeping, i gotta do that in bed for a while. nite all | 08:55 |
| philipballew | I herd more four letter words I cant say on irc this past hour as the alarmed blaired then ive herd all semester | 08:56 |
| philipballew | waking people up will do that | 08:56 |
| kdub | i still havent gotten used to configuring grub2 | 16:06 |
| kdub | did 12.04 switch back to rhythmbox for default music? | 17:21 |
| === mdrmike is now known as mdrmike|afk | ||
| greg-g | kdub: believe so, yeah | 17:52 |
| === mdrmike|afk is now known as mdrmike | ||
| philipballew | bkerensa, good job with the release party! | 20:12 |
| bkerensa | thanks | 20:13 |
