philballewpleia2, are we going to have another election for dave or just wait till the next one in a couple months?03:34
pleia2we can talk about it more formally at a meeting, but I think we'll just wait until the next one03:34
pleia2elections are time-consuming and people mostly hate them03:35
philballewThey are coming up fast. Time really does fly sometimes03:35
akkYeah, let's not do two elections close together03:35
pleia2yeah03:35
pleia2philballew: up for post meeting stuff? (it was a short meeting last night :))03:37

pleia2I've never seen him, looking forward to it03:40

pleia2cool03:45
bkerensaJetblue charges the same to go roundtrip from PDX to LV that it does to Oakland04:33

MarkDudephilballew, you are hella funny05:24
* MarkDude just saw the Twiiter comment about me you made, rather amusing. 05:24
* MarkDude wanted to say - learned much from Jono :D05:25
DonkeyHoteione thing people can learn from jono is how to end one's name with a vowel05:26
scientesDonkeyHotei, lol05:30

kdubso who's all going to denmark? :)16:05
pleia2o/16:05
pleia2won't be at the UDS after that though, since it'll be during my honeymoon16:06
pleia2I skipped going to a wedding of one of my fiance's best friends for a UDS, postponing my own honeymoon may be pushing it a bit :)16:06
akkWhere are your priorities, pleia2? :)16:10
pleia2hehe16:10
pleia2well, I did manage to make my wedding day 3 days after 13.04 release :)16:10
pleia2no getting in the way of the release cycle!16:11
pleia2hey nUboon2Age, long time no see16:11
nUboon2AgeFinally I got around to finding an Android IRC client and getting myself  back here. AND I'm scheming about my computing situation to get it better situated. Like possibly getting a zareason machine with Ubuntu preinatalled.  :-)16:14
pleia2nice :)16:14
pleia2if that's too out of budget, fry's often has $300 systems that run Ubuntu quite well (I grabbed the Lenovo G575, $300, plus $40 to upgrade the RAM to 8G)16:15
nUboon2AgeSorry to have been absent so long. Definitely not intentional.16:15
akkOr of course ebay for super cheap systems.16:16
nUboon2AgeI noticed that zareason isn't advertising a netbook right now. Is the Lenovo a netbook?16:17
pleia2no, it's a laptop16:17
akknetbooks should be even cheaper, though (and lots of brands are cheaper than lenovo).16:18
nUboon2AgeI'm undecided on what I want, except I think I want it light16:18
akkAlso check the Dell outlet -- you can get new or refurb Dells way cheaper than the usual price. That's where I got my 2120.16:19
akkThough the outlet doesn't seem to sell preinstalled Linux :( but you can get a machine that you know supports Linux because they sell it new with Linux.16:19
nUboon2AgePleia2 I haven't forgotten I owe you $20 for the cool Ubuntu ear rings either. Probably in the next couple of weeks I'll send it to ya.16:21
pleia2ok whenever :)16:21
nUboon2Ageakk did you see there's a new Gimp magazine?16:22
akkNo -- sounds cool! Where?16:23
nUboon2AgePleia2 I appreciate your graciousness.  A princess in the best way. :-)16:23
nUboon2Agehttp://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/07/first-issue-of-gimp-magazine-coming-this-fall akk16:24
darthrobotTitle: [First Issue of GIMP Magazine Coming This Fall]16:24
akkThanks, nUboon2Age16:25
nUboon2Ageya mean you're not writing something for it yet? Oh that's got to be fixed. :-)16:26
akk:)16:26
nUboon2AgeMy Millennial Falcon machine is having issues upgrading from 10.10 to 11.04 (eventual goal 12.04)16:28
nUboon2AgeI'm going to try fiddling with apt to make it go. We'll see.16:29
pleia2what's the trouble?16:30
kdubmoar karma16:37
nUboon2AgeI think some packages are messed up or something.  I'll have to study it to even be able to describe it.16:58
nUboon2AgeBTW,  I'm also considering the Android pad from zareason.  Only wifi though, so I'm not sure.17:04

akkodt, maybe notsomuch.20:21
akkNot sure if they'll take svg, that would be interesting to find out.20:22
