[15:36] <paultag> alright, let's rock and roll
[15:36] <paultag> :)

[15:36] <paultag> Cheri703: let's e-fax them back
[15:36] <paultag> someone came by
[15:36] <Cheri703> wasn't that what stlsaint said?
[15:36] <paultag> can't remember who it was
[15:36] <Cheri703> maybe?
[15:36] <Cheri703> I forget who
[15:37] <paultag> Cheri703: just popped over
[15:37]  * Cheri703 is going to put that in the swag request
[15:39] <paultag> Cheri703: told the MI folks what was up and to talk with you
[15:39] <Cheri703> k
[16:14] <thafreak> it was the one guy who does coffee house coder meetings in detroit I think
[16:15] <thafreak> mitechie
[16:16] <thafreak> great, now I just need to prevent my self from hovering around the loco booth for another year
[16:16] <thafreak> I'll leave some cards instead
[16:16]  * thafreak hopes to get some generic cards printed w/gpg info
[16:16] <thafreak> OOOOOOHHHHHH
[16:17] <thafreak> can we have a signup sheet
[16:17] <thafreak> with different re-loco areas
[16:17] <thafreak> I think some people want to be contacted, but don't seem to want to sign up for the ML
[16:20] <snap-l> Hello
[16:20] <snap-l> A little paultag birdie mentioned OLF might have a booth this year featuring Ubuntu folks. :)
[16:25] <thafreak> it would seem so
[16:26] <thafreak> Cheri703 has more of the details...I think she's been spearheading the effort
[16:28] <thafreak> paultag: ok, so say I have a public key in a file...maybe some one emailed it to me, or i fetched it from a url
[16:28] <thafreak> can I print the fingerprint of it without importing it?
[16:40] <snap-l> Cheri703: Would you send those details to craig@decafbad.net? I'm going to see if we can drum up some Ubuntu Michigan folks to help with it if you're interested.
[16:41] <paultag> :)
[16:41] <paultag> thafreak: :)
[16:42] <paultag> thafreak: I don't think so
[16:43] <paultag> thafreak: you can import to a new keyring
[16:43] <paultag> and disregard that after
[16:44] <thafreak> hmm...kinda figured
[17:06]  * Cheri703 is back
[17:07] <Cheri703> I don't know that we have *details* per se, but we will have a booth, and if itsafork ever sends me his phone number, I can order the conference pack :/ I might just send it with MY phone number and tell them I'll get his soon.
[17:08] <Cheri703> went ahead and sent the order to shipit
[17:19] <snap-l> Any information is good at this point
[17:19] <snap-l> at least we can try to get some folks to help stand behind it
[17:19] <Cheri703> I emailed you (at least...the address you gave)
[17:20] <paultag> can't promise much right now, but I'll do my best to make sure we have booze
[17:30] <canthus13> paultag: gonna hit up nagios?

[17:31] <canthus13> I love reading my spam sometimes.. :)
[17:31] <paultag> :D
[17:31] <canthus13> gmail has decided that linux journal emails are spam.
[17:33] <thafreak> i love stacked fuse filesystems...
[17:33] <paultag> thafreak++
[17:34] <thafreak> so, I'm currently loving s3ql...
[17:34] <thafreak> I'm trying out mounting s3ql on top of a folder in my dropbox folder...
[17:35] <thafreak> and now i'm using unison to sync to it...
[17:35] <thafreak> my machine is grinding.... :)
[17:35] <thafreak> I can litterally hear it compressing encrypting and deduping stuff...
[17:56] <thafreak> door2door democrat came to my door...
[17:56] <thafreak> asked what issues I care about
[17:57] <thafreak> I said internet privacy and cyber security
[17:57] <thafreak> I don't think she new what to say
[17:57] <thafreak> "Um ok...I support obama because he supports middle class..." blah blah blah
[18:06] <Cheri703> Conference pack and CDs are officially ordered.
[18:06] <paultag> :D
[18:12] <canthus13> thafreak: Yay electionbots.
[18:15] <thafreak> if that was a bot...wow, they've made some improvements...
[18:15] <thafreak> cylons must be getting good
[18:20] <canthus13> thafreak: right, but it was rather easy to break her programming.
[18:20] <paultag> SO MUCH SWAG GOING ON RIGHT NOW
[18:26] <paultag> I'm broverwhelmed with stuff right now
[18:32] <canthus13> I eh?
[18:33] <paultag> BROVERWHELMED
[18:33] <Cheri703> eye a
[18:34] <Cheri703> ermahgerd it
[18:34] <paultag> BRERVERWHERLMAHD
[18:35] <Cheri703> "I know you can be overwhelmed, and I know you can be underwhelmed, but can you ever just be...whelmed?"
[18:36] <Cheri703> paultag: I think brerverwherlmahd should be your official status pretty much anywhere you have a status
[18:36] <paultag> totally
[18:58] <paultag> holy shit guide
[18:58] <paultag> Debian GNU/Illumos
[18:59] <dzho> oh, the open solaris fork
[18:59] <paultag> http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.general/176726
[18:59] <dzho> so, that's still ticking along?
[18:59] <paultag> yeah!
[18:59] <paultag> someone just got it working with Debian
[18:59] <paultag> they have their own thing
[18:59] <paultag> but it sucks
[18:59] <paultag> so someone turned it into another Debian hack
[18:59] <paultag> bloody great
[18:59] <dzho> yeah, that could be pretty awesmoe
[19:00] <dzho> a kernel you can get ZFS on without having to hack it together yourself
[19:00] <paultag> Debian GNU/Linux, Debian GNU/kFreeBSD, Debian GNU/HURD and Debian GNU/Illumos
[19:00] <paultag> that's pretty awesome.
[19:00] <dzho> haha, hurd
[19:01] <canthus13> dzho: do they even have usage statistics outside the devs for hurd?
[19:02] <dzho> canthus13: I have no idea.
[19:06] <paultag> canthus13: their website runs hurd
[19:08] <canthus13> paultag: Doesn't make much sense to write an entire OS jsut to run one website. :(
[19:08] <paultag> y'rly
[19:48] <dzho> I had what I thought was a pretty good comparison the other day, in terms of free software history.
[19:48] <dzho> speaking of the hurd, as we are
[19:49] <dzho> back in the day, RMS gave himself permission to use proprietary stuff to help build free stuff, because you have to start somewhere
[19:49] <dzho> and, so, they got most of the Unix userland replaced, and it was good.
[19:49] <dzho> but, they got stuck on the kernel, because hurd
[19:50] <dzho> and the thing is, they were working on all thise proper Unix hardwared.
[19:50] <dzho> hardware.
[19:50] <dzho> anyway, from way out in leftist field comes Linus with his kernel.
[19:50] <dzho> and, with a bit of work, it all comes together to what we have today.
[19:51] <dzho> nowadays, we've got this situation with the free kernel on Android, and some free apps aggregated through F-droid
[19:52] <dzho> but again, several of your harder-core freetards (and I use that term with love, now, since I am one) are avoiding mobile hardware because it is insufficiently free.
[19:52] <dzho> and I say "again" because in each case, you've got "serious" folks sort of dissing the popular, cheaply and widely available hardware.
[19:53] <paultag> yar
[19:53] <paultag> ← freetard, as well
