scientesphilipballew, how about xmonad or awesome wm?00:18
philipballewi had wayland running here for a little bit.00:20
philipballewnot recommend for daily production use00:20
scientesphilipballew, i think you are understating that00:22
philipballewscientes, what am I understanding?00:22
scientesundersta*t*ing00:22
philipballewscientes, ah, my bad.00:23
philipballewbut scientes yet im using ubuntu, many say its not useable00:23
philipballewbut soon x will die00:23
scienteswayland is getting better, but it is FAR from usable right now00:23
scientesand X will not die00:23
philipballewvery true00:23
scientesit will just cease to interface with hardware00:24
scientesand be routed through XWayland00:24
philipballewwell in a scene isnt that death? as soon any need for x will vanish00:24
DonkeyHoteicommon sense is not usable00:24
philipballewqt and gtk can write wayland stuff into ther codebase00:24
philipballewand thinks of that sort00:25
scientesyes the large toolkits will be ported00:25
scientesbut there is plenty that isn't written to the toolkits and/or has x11 calls00:25
philipballewits true!00:25
scientesi doubt you will see firefox running natively under wayland this year00:26
philipballewi doubt it as well00:26
pleia2hm, what was lunch at UDS on thursday?17:24
jtatumit was.. mexican i think17:37
pleia2that was wednesday17:40
pleia2(and monday night, lots of mexican!)17:40
pleia2actually there was some friday night too...17:41
scienteshmm i gothry but it was tasty :)18:00
scientes*forget18:00
scientesthere was a tasty cupcake18:00
scientesthere was borsch18:01
DonkeyHoteiit apparently had no beets in it, though18:10
scientesDonkeyHotei, yes it wasn't a typical borsch...18:12
pleia2scientes: ah yes! I had the beef stroganoff18:13
pleia2thanks :)18:13
scientespleia2, are you obsessively blogging this like you did the rest of the conference?18:14

jyoWe had Shepherd's Pie on... Friday?19:15
DonkeyHoteiit's all a blur now19:16
pleia2jyo: yeah19:17
philipballewpleia2, as you fly a lot, do you have any recommendations on good websites to buy tickets from?19:50
pleia2the cheapest one :)19:51
pleia2it varies by flight, I usually check a comparison site like kayak.com then check the airline site itself for the exact same flight and compare prices with fees19:51
philipballewalright, that seems good. Gotta buy tickets to Hew Hampshire today19:52
DonkeyHoteiif you're in any frequent flyer program, check its website first19:52
pleia2Manchester can be cheap sometimes, but I'd also look into Logan + shuttle to NH prices19:52
DonkeyHoteiditto if you know anyone in one with transferable benefits19:53
philipballewthats a good idea. Are some days cheaper then others to fly from?19:53
philipballewand I assume sfo is the cheapest these days?19:53
pleia2most of the comparison charts will show you fares for multiple days, it really depends on locations, times and holidays19:54
scientesoakland doesn't go to many places19:54
pleia2I check OAK, SFO and SJC19:54
pleia2I'll fly out of any of them depending on price19:54
philipballewyeah, im gonna check sfo, oak, san jose, sac and reno19:54
scientesreno!19:54
DonkeyHoteisfo is typically cheaper than oak or sjc19:54
scientesreno is a TINY airport19:55
DonkeyHoteioccasionally smf is lower though19:55
scientesI landed there in a cesna, and there wasn't much19:55
philipballewreno is the only place where you can play slots as you go through the tsa line19:55
philipballewthanks pleia2 found some good ones for 500 even20:22
philipballewround trip20:22
