[00:10] <bkerensa> Astrid for the win
[00:10] <bkerensa> :D
[00:10] <bkerensa> I wish it existed on Ubuntu
[00:14] <bkerensa> pleia2: have you ever played with sudo iwconfig wlan0 power on/off?
[00:15] <pleia2> nope
[04:29] <nhaines> pleia2: taskwarrior yay!
[18:40] <bkerensa> pleia2: <vagrantc> bkerensa: so, we're going to release a 12.04 based freekbox on 2012-12-04
[18:40] <bkerensa> <vagrantc> bkerensa: a slightly mocked up xubuntu variant
[18:40] <bkerensa> :D
[18:40] <bkerensa> FreeGeek
[18:41] <bkerensa> It took a lot to get them to eliminate Linux Mint as a candidate
[18:41] <bkerensa> glad they are staying in the Ubuntu family of flavors
[18:41] <pleia2> cool :)
[18:42] <bkerensa> pleia2: so suddenly next year Xubuntu will start shipping on hundreds of machines per year extra
[18:42] <bkerensa> :D
[18:43] <pleia2> a lot of places have rebased, it's been interesting to watch
[18:44] <bkerensa> yeah
[18:45] <bkerensa> I tried to talk them into Ubuntu vanilla but then they started talking Linux Mint and I think me telling them a drastic experience change for their huge community was likely not the best idea plus they would not get the same level of support from the Linux Mint community... Then some Canonical folks mentioned that LM doesnt allow Kernel Updates by default :)
[18:45] <bkerensa> I think all of that turned them around
[18:45]  * bkerensa will have to get them some Xubuntu stickers
[21:03] <philballew> sent out an email for san diego people for the ubuntu hour next Wednesday
[21:32] <pleia2> yay SD is back \o/
[22:35] <raevol> \o/
[22:35] <raevol> sad i can't make it
