| jtatum | Excited to see that on the agenda. I never got one of the old shirts :) | 02:16 |
| philballew | lets give him a few minutes | 02:17 |
| iheartubuntu | i was going to offer up a few designs with the new font, but just found out about it yesterday. | 02:17 |
| iheartubuntu | is there a rush to fill an order? | 02:17 |
| iheartubuntu | i can make some within the next day or so. | 02:17 |
| philballew | not sure myself, but grantbow should know | 02:17 |
| iheartubuntu | *some designs | 02:17 |
| jtatum | Maybe we can come back to this item if grantbow turns up | 02:18 |
| philballew | good idea. | 02:19 |
| philballew | so I had the thing for thee election liz asked me to run | 02:19 |
| philballew | Africa. thats a trip... | 02:19 |
| philballew | so on the ballot is me iheartubuntu pleia2 and grantbow | 02:20 |
| philballew | since there is more then 3 were gonna have an election | 02:20 |
| philballew | I ran a lp script to get everyones emails who has them as public and will make a ballot in the next day | 02:21 |
| philballew | How long should we make voting last? | 02:21 |
| philballew | I was thinking a week or two | 02:21 |
| jtatum | 2 weeks sounds like long enough for anyone who will vote to get one in | 02:22 |
| philballew | we can just make it end before the next meeting probably then | 02:22 |
| philballew | So thats settled, ill get it out in the next day and then call it good. | 02:22 |
| jtatum | Good luck, candidates! | 02:22 |
| philballew | id do it tonight, but got some calculus homework... | 02:23 |
| * philballew is scared of numbers because of math | 02:23 | |
| philballew | so i guess there is not much else yet | 02:23 |
| philballew | anyone wanna say anything else? | 02:23 |
| jtatum | The meetup group is awesome. Brought a bunch of new folks out to the mountain view UH | 02:24 |
| philballew | I went to the openstack confrence this week for an afternoon and took home a 10 x 10 foot ubuntu / Canonical banner home | 02:24 |
| iheartubuntu | HUGE | 02:24 |
| philballew | way to big to even fit on my wall, but kinda cool | 02:24 |
| philballew | ill be tweeting a pic soon | 02:24 |
| iheartubuntu | jtatum so meetup works pretty good? | 02:24 |
| philballew | well I say thats our meeting! | 02:25 |
| jtatum | Yes. There's an ubuntu California meetup group, so if you have any ubuntu events, join the group and add them | 02:25 |
| iheartubuntu | sounds good thanks | 02:25 |
| philballew | met a caninoical dev this week living in sf | 02:27 |
| philballew | said he did not know sf had a ubuntu meetup | 02:27 |
| philballew | so I gave him the info | 02:27 |
| jbermudes | iheartubuntu: How's the setup at home with your mother in law? Will you get a chance to come down to UH again? | 02:31 |
| iheartubuntu | ahh | 02:35 |
| iheartubuntu | she just went home last weekend | 02:36 |
| iheartubuntu | death in the family | 02:36 |
| iheartubuntu | hope to make it to the next UH | 02:36 |
| iheartubuntu | im driving again | 02:36 |
| iheartubuntu | took a couple weeks after after my finger inury | 02:37 |
| iheartubuntu | injury | 02:37 |
| eps | Dell Small Business is selling low-end "Vostro" laptops with Ubuntu. They claim Ubuntu is "no longer" available in the Home channel. | 02:38 |
| jbermudes | Awesome. We had a great turnout last time so we'd love for you to come and see what it's grown into | 02:39 |
| akk_ | That's pretty normal for Dell, offering Linux on "business" machines and not "home" machines. | 02:40 |
| akk_ | I wish they'd drop that stupid artificial business vs. home distinction -- it makes their site so hard to use. | 02:40 |
| iheartubuntu | jbermudes should getcit hooked up on meetup too | 02:46 |
| iheartubuntu | get it | 02:46 |
| iheartubuntu | will have to take over peets completely :) | 02:46 |
| jbermudes | heh, good idea! | 02:47 |
| iheartubuntu | my dad bought a dell inspiron laptop like 3 years ago. still works awesome even with 12.04 on it | 02:48 |
| iheartubuntu | im always fixing his printer problems though | 02:49 |
| iheartubuntu | we have an HP laserjet that print commands always get piled up and nothing comes out | 02:49 |
| iheartubuntu | easy solution is to cancel all of the printer queue and then delete the printer and re-add it. it works but not very ideal | 02:50 |
| akk_ | Ugh, deleting the printer and re-adding it. | 02:51 |
| iheartubuntu | i think its an hp bug. i havent quite figured it out yet | 02:55 |
| iheartubuntu | my cheapo canon inkjet doesnt have that prob | 02:55 |
| iheartubuntu | ohh wait. canon is via usb and the hp is via the network | 02:55 |
| akk_ | d's Brother laser printer on the net doesn't have that problem either. | 02:56 |
| akk_ | Nor does my cheapie HP inkjet (though it has other problems sometimes). | 02:56 |
| akk_ | The printing system is so insanely complicated, though, every printer is different. | 02:57 |
| pleia2 | philballew: thanks for handling the election :) | 19:59 |
| philballew | pleia2, not a problem. stay good in Africa. | 19:59 |
| pleia2 | thanks! | 20:00 |
| pleia2 | on very slow dsl at this hotel, but at least this place has internet at all | 20:00 |
| philballew | ah true, the food is good though? | 20:00 |
| pleia2 | eh, not thrilled about the food :) | 20:00 |
| philballew | just different? | 20:00 |
| pleia2 | not sure about the taste, and it's certainly different | 20:01 |
| philballew | ah, im sure there is a MacDonalds there somewhere though. | 20:02 |
| philballew | not thats thats good food... | 20:02 |
| pleia2 | there is KFC, but no burger places ;) | 20:05 |
| philballew | haha, I see. KFC is everywhere. Was there any culture shock for you? | 20:06 |
| pleia2 | and chinese food, there are a lot of people from china here doing investments in infrastructure deveopment | 20:06 |
| pleia2 | tons of culture shock | 20:06 |
| philballew | dont flush the tp! | 20:07 |
| pleia2 | haha, depends on where you are, and if they have tp at all :) | 20:07 |
| philballew | paper goods are a commodity America takes for granted because we do not understand what disposable goods say about our status in the world. | 20:09 |
| philballew | showering or baths are more of a luxury I would assume? | 20:09 |
| pleia2 | we're actually staying in decent places, so I'm getting a shower each day | 20:11 |
| pleia2 | hot water is the luxury, I've had it probably 4 times | 20:11 |
| philballew | oh wow, that is really cool | 20:11 |
| philballew | that makes sense with the water temp. | 20:11 |
| pleia2 | the room I'm in how claims to have a water heater, but no luck with that :) | 20:11 |
| pleia2 | s/how/now | 20:11 |
| pleia2 | it's ok, the water isn't *cold* since it's so hot here | 20:12 |
| philballew | id imagine, must be different then the bay. | 20:13 |
| philballew | well off to spanish class | 20:15 |
| bkerensa | woah | 20:22 |
| bkerensa | pleia2: hot water only 4 times | 20:22 |
| bkerensa | x.x | 20:22 |
| bkerensa | you have been there more than 4 days though | 20:22 |
| bkerensa | :D | 20:22 |
| pleia2 | yes, I got here 11 days ago ;) | 20:24 |
