[13:06] <AlanBell> I will do a blog post later introducing this channel
[13:07] <AlanBell> jussi: any luck with ubot5 and the planet feed?
[14:56] <jussi> AlanBell: been at work all day, havent had a chance to look at it. later...
[16:26] <IdleOne> welcome zykotick9 :)
[16:27] <zykotick9> ;) hey.
[16:27] <IdleOne> like I said in PM this channel is new and still quiet but it could use some love from nice people who want to talk about interesting ubuntu stuff without random off topic stuff
[16:27] <IdleOne> feel free to idle here :)
[17:03] <jussi> doh
[17:18] <jussi> getting somewhere...
[17:19] <IdleOne> jussi: how often will that spam?
[17:19] <jussi> now links, less items and boldness, as well as timing...
[17:21] <jussi> @config supybot.plugins.RSS.waitPeriod
[17:21] <jussi> looks like 1800 seconds I guess
[17:22] <jussi> IdleOne: suggest a better value?
[17:22] <jussi> @rss planetubuntu
[17:22] <IdleOne> jussi: that would be every 3 hours?
[17:22] <jussi> mrgh. why no links :/
[17:22] <jussi> IdleOne: I think so
[17:22] <IdleOne> sounds good
[17:28] <jussi> it looks horrible, but it works
[17:34] <jussi> Heya jono :D
[17:36] <jono> howdy!
[18:02] <IdleOne> Welcome
[18:02] <Nytelife> thx
[18:02] <IdleOne> Talk about Ubuntu all you like in here and remember to keep it family friendly
[18:02] <IdleOne> !guidelines
[18:05] <Pecker> so who is dling warty right now (other than me)
[18:05] <AlanBell> heh
[18:05] <IdleOne> hehe
[18:05] <AlanBell> that is retro
[18:05] <IdleOne> you know, I have never tried warty
[18:05] <IdleOne> I started at 5.04
[18:06] <AlanBell> don't think I did either, think it may have been 5.10 for me
[18:06] <IdleOne> on PPC at that
[18:10] <Pecker> I started on 8.10
[18:10] <Pecker> but i wanna see what was different in 2004
[18:10] <IdleOne> aside from the colour not much
[18:11] <Pecker> lol yeah
[18:11] <Pecker> whos idea was it to go purple
[18:12] <Pecker> everyone i know whos uses ubuntu misses bthe orange
[18:12] <AlanBell> well it was brown that was the colour
[18:12] <AlanBell> now it is aubergine and Ubuntu community orange
[18:12] <AlanBell> which is #dd4814
[18:13] <IdleOne> Can I go to Home Depot and buy a gallon of Ubuntu orange?
[18:13] <Pecker> rofl
[18:13] <IdleOne> that would be awesome
[18:14] <AlanBell> dunno if they can match to a hex code
[18:14] <IdleOne> I think I might try asking them if they can later today
[18:20] <AlanBell> I was just looking up what I was doing when I started using Ubuntu and came across this
[18:20] <AlanBell> http://web.archive.org/web/20070608135420/http://www.dominux.co.uk/dominuxblog.nsf/plinks/ABEL-69GSDS
[18:22] <AlanBell> I think I started with 5.10 and handed out a bunch of CDs at an IBM/Lotus conference in January 2006
[18:24] <AlanBell> then again, it might have been 2005
[18:24] <pleia2> huh, 4.10 actually must have been my first (I created my ubuntuforums.org account the day I first tried it, March 12th 2005, that was 4.10 time)
[18:25] <pleia2> but I was still firmly in Debian land for a couple more years
[18:25] <AlanBell> yeah, I handed out CDs on 24th January 2005, so that must have been 4.10 Warty
[18:28] <popey> wow you look so _young_!
[18:29] <AlanBell> the years have not been kind
[18:29] <popey> neither have all the days and months!
[18:31] <IdleOne> hah
[18:33] <AlanBell> harsh but fair
[18:35] <IdleOne> I am glad there are no pics of me in the webernets from when i was younger
[18:38]  * pleia2 hands out fountain of youth passes
[18:39] <pleia2> (some day people will stop thinking I'm 20)
[18:52] <AlanBell> \o/
[18:54] <DJones> Sheesh, I can't get away from people from my home town that went to school at the same time as me (doctormo)
[20:21] <h00k> I see what you did there
[20:24] <AlanBell> hi h00k
[20:25] <h00k> Hello, AlanBell
[20:37] <AlanBell> http://ubottu.com/ircc/2012/06/25/join-the-discussion-in-ubuntu-discuss/
[20:37] <AlanBell> though I guess the bot will announce that in a few minutes anyhow
[20:49] <AlanBell> yay
[20:49] <ikonia> I assume that was your blog post ?
[20:49] <AlanBell> it was
[20:49] <ikonia> you don't mess around
[20:49] <IdleOne> AlanBell: that is indeed a lovely kitten pic
[20:50] <AlanBell> oi, kittens are offtopic ;)
[20:51] <IdleOne> not in this case because I was only refering to them due to your blog post
[20:51]  * IdleOne refrains from talking kittens any longer.
[20:53]  * h00k refrains from taking kittens any longer.
[20:58] <IdleOne> Would be good if the news team could recommend some ubuntu related rss feeds
[21:03] <cym13> +1
[21:04] <AlanBell> the weekly news has just been published it seems
[21:06] <h00k> IdleOne: Planet Ubuntu
[21:07] <IdleOne> h00k: bot already has that one
[21:08] <h00k> IdleOne: it's true.
[21:10] <Tm_T> I like the "for high quality" on the topic
[21:57] <IdleOne> jussi: appears the bot is posting every hour which in my opinion might be a little too often
[21:57] <cym13> IdleOne: how often would you like ?
[21:58] <AlanBell> it posts when there are posts to post
[22:01] <cym13> I don't think that it's as simple as that, this post is maybe an hour old…
[22:01] <cym13> But I'd like to know how exactly it does.
[22:01] <AlanBell> yeah, it does look hourly, but I guess it won't say anything if there are no posts in that time window
[22:02] <cym13> +1
[22:07] <IdleOne> Well I thought it was going to be every 3 hours
[22:07] <IdleOne> still working out the kinks I guess
