grantbowI mean nobody new seems to have shown up from the emails.03:13
grantbowI'll be around later this evening but I have dinner guests now. cya later :-)03:17
philballewpeace03:20
akkI'm around but didn't really have anything to add.03:22
akkExcept I didn't know unity used qt, that's interesting, but unrelated to the meeting.03:22
pleia2thanks philballew!03:33
pleia2philballew: it was actually Unity 2d that used a lot of Qt, that's no longer maintained :(03:34
philballewpleia2, unity 2d stopped last cycle?04:00
philballewthought it was stopping this cycle?04:00
philballewmy bad04:00
pleia2philballew: yeah, 12.04 was the last one with Unity 2d04:00
philballewah, having only one version of unity is better probably.04:00
pleia2with 12.10 they use the emulation library to use the same code even when your card isn't 3d accellerated (which is why Unity is so painfully slow on older machines and everyone says 12.10 sucks)04:01
* philballew uses lxde on most machines04:01
pleia2yeah, xfce here04:01
akkHaving only one version isn't so good if that one version lacks support for older machines. :(04:02
pleia2it doesn't lack support, it's just slow04:03
akkSo slow as to be pretty much unusable -- ever tried to use unity inside virtualbox?04:03
philballewthey are not as concerned about that group I think.04:03
akkI wanted to have a vanilla ubuntu around in virtualbox for testing things, but I've sorta given up on it.04:03
pleia2I have 3d accelleration turned on in virtualbox, but I get your point :)04:03
akkI tried to turn it on, but it was greyed out IIRC.04:04
akkHmm, now it's not greyed out, maybe it's a kernel difference.04:05
pleia2support has improved a lot over the past couple cycles04:05
philballewmy two laptops are unity and they use about 700 mb's or ram just sitting there04:05
pleia2I think I was first able to do 3d in virtualbox in 12.0404:05
akkThere are some things from python-snippets that I want to test under unity if I ever manage to catch jono online to find out how to resolve bugs in that package.04:06
pleia2he tends to be online weekdays 9-5 in #ubuntu-community-team04:07
pleia2but he just beame a father, so YMMV :)04:07
akkah, that might be the problem.04:07
philballewGood luck to him and what not.04:07
akkI've pinged him a couple times without an answer, but I haven't been around very consistently either.04:07
* pleia2 nods04:08
philballewpleia2, so I got your email for sd and everything is gonna work out great04:09
pleia2philballew: yay!04:10
pleia2where will it be?04:10
philballewI see a few options currently, a starbucks 2 miles away, or downtown thats also two miles away. Both the bus goes right to them. I can take the bus with you there to both probably04:11
pleia2that would be helpful, I don't love the idea of taking a bus alone at night in a city I'm not familiar with04:12
philballewif you bring some roller skates, I might be able to pull you on my bike?04:12
* philballew runs and hides04:12
pleia2lol04:12
akkMost Starbucks tend to be crowded and noisy -- I've had a lot of attempted meetings in Starbucks that didn't work out.04:13
philballewIts easy for people because they like the coffee though to.04:13
pleia2philballew: wednesday or thursday night?04:14
pleia2I still don't have plans for either, ariley said he might come along too if he's available though04:14
philballewpleia2, I think Thursday is the plan, but will know for sure in about two days.04:14
pleia2ok :)04:14
pleia2MJ is flying down friday night, so saturday and sunday we're doing the zoo and animal park!04:15
philballewThe zoo is awesome!!!!04:15
pleia2yeah, I've wanted to go my whole life04:15
akkIt's a really good zoo. I've never been to the animal park, but I bet it's great too.04:15
* philballew flys out Friday night.04:15
philballewpleia2, you can spend a lot of time in the zoo.04:16
philballewAt least that is what people tell me04:16
pleia2:)04:16
pleia2MJ should have his DSLR by then, that'll be fun04:17
pleia2camera04:17
philballewHave fun!04:17

pleia2I know megabus from the east coast, didn't realize they had plans for the bay area06:59
pleia2$1 is temporary, but still less than $10 a ride for their real prices (that article says $5-9)07:00
pleia2might be useful for scale :)07:00

philipballewpleia2, alright.08:12
