| pleia2 | SF Ubuntu Hour \o/ | 00:55 |
|---|---|---|
| pleia2 | 2 of us here, a summer :) | 01:18 |
| akk | I wish precise would quit hanging when I suspend with my android device attached to USB. I keep coming back to find it's been on all day in some kind of intermediate nonresponsive but power-using state. | 01:23 |
| pleia2 | that's unpleasant :( | 01:23 |
| akk | Pretty sure it didn't do it under oneiric, though I have admittedly also changed the USB hub. | 01:24 |
| bkerensa | Cool? | 02:40 |
| bkerensa | Its hot here | 02:40 |
| philipballew_ | bkerensa, its in the 80's though? | 03:35 |
| akk | Was very hot here, definitely needed the A/C. | 03:35 |
| philipballew_ | 110 here | 03:36 |
| akk | A/C is air conditioning, AC is alternating current, right? I'm always wanting to add the slash on the current one, not sure why either one has a slash. | 03:36 |
| philipballew_ | and now theres a forest fire about 15 miles away. I wonder is there is a proper way for either one. | 03:36 |
| akk | Only got to 87 here, turns out. It felt a lot hotter than that. | 03:37 |
| akk | Really got to 110 down there? Ouch. | 03:38 |
| philipballew_ | In Auburn now. | 03:39 |
| philipballew_ | Its a killer in the foothills here | 03:39 |
| philipballew_ | Auburn is east of Sacramento off 80. | 03:40 |
| philipballew_ | sometimes akk I think the wind can help make it feel cooler then it is. | 03:43 |
| akk | And "it's a dry heat", and all that. | 03:45 |
| akk | (It's still a lot of heat!) | 03:45 |
| akk | If Auburn is 110 I hate to think what Sac got to, down in the flatlands | 03:45 |
| * MarkDude hates to go to Sac, anytime of year :D | 03:46 | |
| akk | Me too, MarkDude | 03:46 |
| akk | That's why I quit autocrossing, too many weekends wasted driving to/from Sac. | 03:46 |
| philipballew_ | yeah, every time I ever go there akk I feel like the temp rises 15 degrees | 03:47 |
| akk | Auburn at least has scenery to take your mind off the heat. :) | 03:47 |
| * DonkeyHotei is in Sac, where it was 100° today | 03:47 | |
| philipballew_ | Indeed. I was going to go to the river tomorrow to get some cool water. Not now that theres a fire there.... | 03:48 |
| philipballew_ | DonkeyHotei makes the sf to sac trip all to often it seems. | 03:49 |
| DonkeyHotei | couldn't be helped | 03:49 |
| philipballew_ | Lately when I go to sf from sac I take the fast. Its like 9 dollars to get to the bart | 03:50 |
| DonkeyHotei | the fast? | 03:51 |
| akk | I've never taken the train -- it seems like it would be a great solution, except its hours are so limited (and poor connections at the ends). | 03:51 |
| MarkDude | :) | 03:52 |
| DonkeyHotei | what's "the fast" ? | 03:53 |
| philipballew_ | DonkeyHotei, fast is Fairfield and Sasuin transit. you take the route 30 from the capitol to the fairfield transit center and pict up route 90 that takes you to el cereito | 03:53 |
| philipballew_ | or however you spell these cities | 03:53 |
| philipballew_ | Its a fairly good deal DonkeyHotei | 03:54 |
| philipballew_ | http://www.fasttransit.org/ | 03:54 |
| darthrobot | Title: [Error reading title] | 03:54 |
| akk | It's a bus? | 03:56 |
| DonkeyHotei | sounds like a full day's ride | 03:56 |
| DonkeyHotei | do they take the clipper card? | 03:57 |
| akk | How long does it take? | 03:57 |
| philipballew_ | DonkeyHotei, Its not a full day if you pick up the express to fairfelt at 7:05 am | 03:59 |
| philipballew_ | *Fairfield | 03:59 |
| philipballew_ | they dont currently, but are working towards the clipper capt | 03:59 |
| philipballew_ | *card | 03:59 |
| philipballew_ | new keyboard... | 04:00 |
| philipballew_ | It takes like an hour and a half iirc akk | 04:00 |
| philipballew_ | but its cheap | 04:00 |
| akk | An hour and a half? Takes me over 2 hrs to drive there. (From the south bay.) | 04:01 |
| philipballew_ | well this is east bay | 04:02 |
| akk | Ah, I thought it was from SF (closer than SJ, of course, but also takes forever to get out of there and through Berkeley). | 04:02 |
| philipballew_ | I picked it up across the street from the capitol and was at the Powell bart at 9:45 | 04:03 |
| DonkeyHotei | sounds very not worth it | 04:03 |
| philipballew_ | its not for the faint of heart | 04:05 |
| philipballew_ | or someone who enjoys being fast | 04:05 |
| DonkeyHotei | why bother? | 04:05 |
| DonkeyHotei | greyhound is much quicker and much less hassle | 04:06 |
| philipballew_ | Its cheaper is all | 04:06 |
| DonkeyHotei | roundtrip ticket on greyhound is $20 | 04:06 |
| philipballew_ | true. | 04:07 |
| philipballew_ | Just an option I have used before | 04:07 |
| philipballew_ | bkerensa, anything you need me to bring? | 05:51 |
| bkerensa | philipballew_: not that I can think of | 05:52 |
| philipballew_ | Alright, just making sure bkerensa | 05:53 |
| bkerensa | philipballew_: yeah :) I think your going to get lots of booth time | 05:54 |
| bkerensa | :D | 05:55 |
| * MarkDude hopes bkerensa is at booth enough time to allow proper trolling | 05:57 | |
| MarkDude | Getting Phil is not the same | 05:57 |
| * bkerensa will ignore said trolling ;) | 05:57 | |
| philipballew_ | Sounds good. the only time I know I cant be there is sometime Tuesday me and jono are going over community accomplishments. | 05:58 |
| philipballew_ | MarkDude, dont worry, I will be the only one at the booth sometimes and will "Look the other way" | 05:58 |
| bkerensa | philipballew_: good luck with that unless he has it on a calendar :P | 05:58 |
| philipballew_ | he does | 05:58 |
| MarkDude | Its not like that | 05:58 |
| bkerensa | getting 1 on 1 time with him at OSCON is like getting ice cones in the Sahara | 05:58 |
| bkerensa | :D | 05:58 |
| philipballew_ | He requested the meeting :) | 05:58 |
| philipballew_ | If I dont Ill just take himn to coffee sometime later | 05:59 |
| MarkDude | Did he hear the Dark Side of the Force is luring you with cookies? | 05:59 |
| philipballew_ | Hes only like 130 miles from where I live | 05:59 |
| bkerensa | philipballew_: Block out MarkDude's attempts to recruit you to Fedora ;) | 05:59 |
| MarkDude | 10 from me | 05:59 |
| MarkDude | lol | 06:00 |
| MarkDude | He is safe, The Princess has a Force field around him | 06:00 |
| bkerensa | In Salem last weekend a Fedora user asked me for selling points on switching to Ubuntu... I totally convinced him and he replaced Fedora on the spot ;p | 06:00 |
| MarkDude | ok | 06:00 |
| MarkDude | Well F17 sorta sucks | 06:00 |
| MarkDude | So that can be an easy sell | 06:01 |
| MarkDude | Did you start with hey, this is a bit less crappy? | 06:01 |
| MarkDude | :D | 06:01 |
| MarkDude | He was like cool, way less turdy | 06:01 |
| * MarkDude kids due to his being a kidder | 06:01 | |
| philipballew_ | bkerensa, What do I do when MarkDude says install fedora or I kick you out? | 06:02 |
| bkerensa | :P I will not tell the selling points MarkDude because they would be on ITWorld tomorrow | 06:02 |
| bkerensa | ;p | 06:02 |
| MarkDude | Honestly tho, was your first answer- well we DONT have Gnome 3- that crap Linus hates | 06:02 |
| bkerensa | philipballew_: You have to refuse and hitch hike home :) | 06:02 |
| MarkDude | Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzing bkerensa | 06:02 |
| bkerensa | maybe sabdfl can give you a lift in his jet | 06:03 |
| bkerensa | :D | 06:03 |
| philipballew_ | Ill parachute out | 06:03 |
| MarkDude | Take it up with your tattoo's sake. | 06:03 |
| philipballew_ | are we busy in the evenings? | 06:04 |
| bkerensa | MarkDude: I should make a mastercard spoof ad... "Cost to make Fedora appear to have a local community in 2012 $35,000" "Cost to buy a booth bigger than all other distros $10,000" "Getting to wear a Red Hat... Priceless" for everything else theres Mastercard | 06:05 |
| bkerensa | ;p | 06:05 |
| MarkDude | Sure | 06:05 |
| bkerensa | philipballew_: Hmm no just during expo hours... I will likely go to some parties and dinner during OSCOn | 06:05 |
| MarkDude | Fedora did NOT pay for the booth | 06:05 |
| MarkDude | it was Given to us | 06:05 |
| MarkDude | Parties are fun there | 06:05 |
| philipballew_ | cause one evening I am having dinner with a friend from school, I plan to eat free there somewhat | 06:06 |
| MarkDude | and some can be Epic | 06:06 |
| bkerensa | MarkDude: the wiki says it was "paid for" | 06:06 |
| bkerensa | and if it was thats a $10k booth because PuppetLabs balked at the price last year | 06:06 |
| bkerensa | :D | 06:06 |
| * MarkDude did that wiki entry | 06:06 | |
| MarkDude | read history | 06:06 |
| bkerensa | hmm | 06:06 |
| bkerensa | your booth is not in the Non Profit or Project Pavillion though? Its in a paid booth area | 06:07 |
| MarkDude | The intent of that wiki is not as much public, as in used to organize | 06:07 |
| philipballew_ | dont worry bkerensa Ill replace all MarkDude 's fedora cd's with Ubuntu cd's!!! | 06:07 |
| MarkDude | and use it for folks to plan, and to approve budgets | 06:07 |
| bkerensa | philipballew_: :P nah they would burn them :) | 06:08 |
| MarkDude | Actually bkerensa did you ever hear the story about the guy that burned an Ubuntu CD on Fedora's Planet? | 06:15 |
| bkerensa | huh | 06:15 |
| bkerensa | nope | 06:15 |
| MarkDude | It picks up blog feeds | 06:15 |
| bkerensa | yes I know | 06:16 |
| MarkDude | Said for others in case they did not know :) | 06:16 |
| MarkDude | I know you know stuff | 06:16 |
| MarkDude | And this guy had this *mildly funny* point about proprietary software | 06:17 |
| MarkDude | and chose to take it to extreme and burn a cd, take pics and say some crap like be gone you demons- | 06:17 |
| MarkDude | or suthin equally stupid | 06:17 |
| MarkDude | So there was a quick unofficial meeting in Ambadassadors, and he was asked to remove it on his own | 06:18 |
| MarkDude | Or there would be some formal action. He was told to apologize for it (and did) | 06:19 |
| MarkDude | all within 12 hours | 06:19 |
| MarkDude | Right after this- I was helping Berkeley LUG (Jack's group) at Solano Stroll | 06:19 |
| MarkDude | I got in the middle of the crowd, and in my best Southern preacher accent, I asked everyone- WHO among you has evil proprietary software? Do you have Windows? | 06:20 |
| MarkDude | Then I wil heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaal your computer with this beautiful software | 06:21 |
| MarkDude | Believe in the power of Ubuuuuuuntu! | 06:22 |
| MarkDude | ALL of that a true story | 06:22 |
| MarkDude | Jack gets nervous now if I say I am gonna help out at events | 06:22 |
| MarkDude | I dont think he knew about the earlier stuff :D | 06:22 |
| pleia2 | epikvision: did you change your email address? (been getting bounces from you lately on UWN summaries) | 17:48 |
