| MarkDude | akk, sad to hear on that car, it looks like it can be much fun | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| MarkDude | If its working that is | 00:01 |
| akk | Oddly enough, it's fun even with problems! | 00:01 |
| akk | It's just going to be a much more expensive car than I originally thought. :( | 00:02 |
| pleia2 | Ubuntu CDs! | 01:36 |
| akk | \o/ | 01:37 |
| akk | Though I'm surprised they don't just hand them over in person at UDS. | 01:38 |
| akk | (oh, I guess then you'd have to carry them all, though) | 01:38 |
| pleia2 | they don't really coordinate so precisely anyway :) | 01:39 |
| greg-g | get it?! precisely! | 01:47 |
| pleia2 | I hate precise :) | 01:48 |
| akk | I hate it as a name for a release. | 01:53 |
| akk | The release itself seems to be working pretty well (knock silicon). | 01:53 |
| pleia2 | ah yes, the release itself is nice | 01:54 |
| pleia2 | upgraded my mini9 today (from lucid!), Xubuntu | 01:54 |
| pleia2 | bumped into a couple known bugs, but mostly went well :) | 01:54 |
| akk | That's great, that an upgrade from lucid works well (I know it's supposed to, but still nice to hear it does :) | 01:55 |
| akk | d has been struggling with getting an updated ubuntu on a chromebook today and not having much luck. | 01:55 |
| pleia2 | they don't actually recommend it until 12.04.1, once that's released the update manager will finally tell you to upgrade | 01:55 |
| pleia2 | s/released/release | 01:56 |
| pleia2 | no, I had it right the first time | 01:56 |
| akk | Ah! I wondered why he was doing oneiric first. | 01:56 |
| pleia2 | lts to lts I mean | 01:57 |
| akk | My pangolin here is a clean install, because my attempt at copying the ocelot over to a new partition to upgrade it resulted in badness. | 01:57 |
| * akk is trying to buck tradition and use the good animal names instead of the stupid adjectives | 01:57 | |
| pleia2 | hehe | 01:58 |
| pleia2 | there is a guy on the ubuntu planet who is terribly annoyed that people use any part of the code names at all after releaes | 01:58 |
| akk | and I refuse to say things like "I'm running precise" and then have to explain them | 01:58 |
| pleia2 | "it's not precise pangolin anymore, it's 12.04!" | 01:58 |
| pleia2 | yeah yeah :) | 01:58 |
| akk | That's no fun! | 01:58 |
| pleia2 | agreed! | 01:58 |
| akk | Though the adjectives aren't that much fun either. Animals are fun (as I'm sure you'd agree). | 01:58 |
| pleia2 | :) | 01:59 |
| akk | I can sort of sympathize with people who want to see the numbers -- I know I get terribly confused when people talk about MacOS trying to remember if leopard was earlier or later than tiger | 01:59 |
| akk | and Ubuntu is the one OS that uses the sensible rule of using the year, so you actually know when it was. | 02:00 |
| pleia2 | at least we're going in alphabetical order | 02:00 |
| akk | Yes, that's also sensible. | 02:01 |
| akk | I really like both those things about Ubuntu naming. | 02:01 |
| philipballew | pleia2, I assume I can just pick up some cd's from you in oak? | 03:02 |
| pleia2 | philipballew: I suggest picking up some being given out by Canonical at UDS ;) | 03:03 |
| pleia2 | if you need more beyond that I'll ship some down | 03:03 |
| philipballew | pleia2, sounds good. I can just pick those up | 03:03 |
| philipballew | are they all 32 bit again this year> | 03:03 |
| philipballew | ? | 03:03 |
| pleia2 | the desktop ones are 32 bit, server are 64 | 03:03 |
| philipballew | nice! | 03:04 |
| * philipballew high fives pleia2 | 03:04 | |
| pleia2 | ^5 | 03:07 |
| bkerensa | California Dreamin | 03:12 |
| bkerensa | :D | 03:12 |
| pleia2 | wow, they have formal events every evening | 03:17 |
| philipballew | ca is a very formal state | 03:20 |
| pleia2 | lol | 03:20 |
| philipballew | pleia2, does uds have a dress code? | 03:35 |
| philipballew | I mean I knows its ca, so I can wear rainbows probably, buy I should probably check | 03:36 |
| pleia2 | they wouldn't take kindly to nudests | 03:39 |
| pleia2 | but otherwise you should be fine | 03:40 |
| akk | The dress code is: you should be dressed. | 03:41 |
| pleia2 | I just wear t-shirt and jeans | 03:42 |
| akk | Preferably with some sort of linuxy slogan on the t-shirt. :) | 03:42 |
| akk | And ubuntu earrings, of course! | 03:43 |
| pleia2 | :) | 03:43 |
| pleia2 | I'll have some for sale with me | 03:43 |
| philipballew | my ears closed up a while ago, I used to have them open. | 03:43 |
| philipballew | maybe I need a new excuse! | 03:44 |
| philipballew | pleia2, How much are they. It would make some good gifts as well. | 03:45 |
| pleia2 | $20 | 03:45 |
| pleia2 | and $10 of that goes to partimus.org (linux in schools!) | 03:45 |
| philipballew | We do need that | 03:46 |
| philipballew | So I keep hearing all this noise about ea games coming there. | 03:48 |
| philipballew | Not that I really play video games, but apparently they are a big company... | 03:48 |
| MarkDude | Anyone else for A's game thurs with some FOSS folks? | 05:03 |
| philipballew | MarkDude, totally down | 05:04 |
| MarkDude | Cool | 05:07 |
| * MarkDude thinks we have like 7 | 05:08 | |
| MarkDude | I will go ahead and get 8 | 05:08 |
| MarkDude | and get more during next week as needed | 05:08 |
| philipballew | how much per ticket? | 05:08 |
| MarkDude | $4 | 05:08 |
| MarkDude | costs $2 on wed | 05:09 |
| philipballew | shoot, in that case i should buy two for a leg rest | 05:09 |
| philipballew | the weekend series is gonna be fun as well | 05:09 |
| philipballew | there has never been a baseball Ive gone to where i did not have a good time.. should be fun! | 05:10 |
| MarkDude | It is lots of fun | 05:12 |
| philipballew | yeah, I plan to go to several a's games this summer | 05:12 |
| MarkDude | Cool | 05:12 |
| MarkDude | If you make it on a day when its not full | 05:12 |
| MarkDude | most days | 05:12 |
| MarkDude | I can sneak you down to the best seats | 05:13 |
| MarkDude | right behind the dugout | 05:13 |
| MarkDude | players can sign there | 05:13 |
| philipballew | Id totally be down for that. | 05:13 |
| MarkDude | No doubt | 05:15 |
| MarkDude | Baseball rocks | 05:15 |
| philipballew | Seriously. Its like a giant saga played out daily for all to watch. Almost poetic | 05:16 |
| * philipballew is off to pretend to care about his last day of sophomore year tomorrow | 05:17 | |
| philipballew | pleia2, when ive had to brush my cats teeth, it takes some force. It's almost as if you have to show to mercy. Its not fun... | 06:15 |
| pleia2 | :\ | 06:15 |
| pleia2 | the vet showed us how with a finger, but she's so terrified at the vet that she's immobile cat ball | 06:16 |
| pleia2 | at home she is all wiggle wiggle | 06:16 |
| philipballew | yeah, We used two people. One to hole my cat down, and them other to brush. | 06:16 |
| philipballew | cats are used to their comfort zone probably I guess... | 06:17 |
| pleia2 | yeah, that's what we did on tuesday, it still didn't work very well :) | 06:17 |
| pleia2 | yeah | 06:17 |
| philipballew | The cat's hate you for doing that to them. | 06:17 |
| pleia2 | fortunately she is forgiving | 06:17 |
| pleia2 | we also give her fluids under the skin ever other day | 06:18 |
| philipballew | That sounds hard. Is she happier then she used to be? | 06:19 |
| philipballew | http://imagebin.org/210911 | 06:19 |
| pleia2 | it was scary at first, but it's actually not too bad once everyone involved gets used to it | 06:19 |
| philipballew | ^for anyone wondering | 06:19 |
| pleia2 | aww kitties :) | 06:19 |
| philipballew | the black one is boo, and the other one is chubbs :) | 06:19 |
| philipballew | What is the real issue behind your cat? | 06:20 |
| pleia2 | kidney failure :( | 06:21 |
| pleia2 | not sure what caused it, the vet thinks it was an undiagnoised urinary tract infection gone awry | 06:21 |
| philipballew | SHe must have a good doctor. She is on a list I assume? | 06:22 |
| pleia2 | they don't have lists, when the doctors feel she's ready for a transplant they work with a shelter | 06:23 |
| pleia2 | you then adopt the shelter cat who gave a kidney | 06:23 |
| pleia2 | (studies show the risk is pretty low for the donor cat, and like humans they can live with one kidney) | 06:23 |
| pleia2 | but she's very young (5 years old) and is responding well to treatment, so we're not at that point yet :) | 06:24 |
| philipballew | looks like pleia2 gets a new cat out of this! | 06:31 |
| bkerensa | hmm | 14:45 |
