jcastropopey: ping16:38
popeyjcastro: pong!16:40
jcastrohey so16:40
jcastrothis G+ thing16:40
jcastroI am thinking of just asking to see if any forum moderators would be interested in helping16:40
jcastroI _really_ want to just Jorge the whole thing and burn large swaths of the posts with fire16:41
jcastrobut that's probably not very collaborative16:41
jcastroso I was thinking if there's a group of existing forum moderators that want to lend their expertise ...16:41
popeyi alredy do that16:41
jcastrooh ok16:41
jcastrodid you just add them or what?16:41
popeyanything which looks like blog spam16:41
popeyno, i mean "do a jorge"16:41
jcastrooh, right right16:42
popeyif it's blog spam i remove it, if its inappropriate i remove and ban16:42
jcastroyeah so the "doing a jorge" is easy for obvious spam and garbage16:42
jcastroI am talking for like16:42
jcastrosome of the more useless stuff16:43
jcastroI dunno, maybe I want too much out of the thing and we should just let it be16:43
jcastroI was envisioning an awesome little water cooler where we could show off little apps, fun things16:43
* mhall119 also burns posts with fire16:43
mhall119jcastro: I'm okay with useless stuff as long as it's not inappropriate16:44
mhall119makes it more "community" and less "marketing"16:44
jcastroyeah I just wanted something more highbrow than the facebook page16:44
mhall119well it's better than the FB comments, for sure16:44
jcastroMore "check out my cool new thing I've been working on" , not just people resharing "linux is better than windows" crap16:45
mhall119jcastro: have we had much of that?16:45
mhall119the "check out my cool new thing" we have being posted on the Ubuntu App Developers community16:45
jcastroit feels like a bunch of regurgitation16:45
popeywe've had a fair number of "Why is unity better than.."16:45
mhall119we made a "showcase" sub-topic or whatever they're called16:46
popeybut it's end users, it's to be expected16:46
jcastroyeah16:46
jcastroso in hindsight16:46
popeywe're crossing the chasm with this16:46
popeyas with fb16:46
jcastroI am wondering if we should have created individual communities16:46
jcastroinstead maybe put them all as subcategories of just "ubuntu"16:46
jcastroto help bring the signal up16:46
popeyit could get unweildy16:47
jcastropopey: well if you think I'm overthinking it lmk16:47
jcastromaybe it's just me16:47
mhall119I think a separate app developer community is appropriate16:47
snap-lI think individual communities might help split the signal16:47
popeyno, it needs thinking about16:47
snap-lnot sure if it'll cut the noise.16:47
mhall119since many app developers only care about Ubuntu as a market, not as a community or project16:47
snap-lPerhaps if it was made private so it doesn't filter into the timelines16:47
mhall119but I haven't been promoting separate Ubuntu Phone communities16:47
mhall119since those rightly belong to the wider Ubuntu community16:47
snap-lbut then private would have all sorts of negative connotations16:47
czajkowskisnap-l: people over think private at times :)16:48
jcastroI don't want to solve a social problem with technology by making it private16:48
snap-lczajkowski: No doubt.16:48
snap-lPerhaps the exuberant ubuntu community would be an idea16:48
snap-lif you'd like to spew "I <3 UBUNTU", go there. ;)16:48
SergioMenesesmorning!16:49
* mhall119 likes to spew that16:49
* popey mops up16:49
* snap-l is glad he didn't choose the other word he was thinking of. ;)16:49
* mhall119 got Ubuntu all over his shirt16:51
jcastropopey: hey so do you cron that btrfs scrub monthly or whatever?16:53
jcastroI just did my first one16:53
popeyi dont16:53

jcastrooh did you renice it?16:54
popeyno16:55
jcastrooh, yours was correcting things16:55
popeyyeah16:55
popeymassively16:55
popeyi think one disk has been loose for days16:55
jcastroso what happened did you remove a drive live or trip over something?16:55
popeythe drive was failing, indicating hw failure or not seated16:55
popeyso pulled it out16:55
popeythen pulled 3 more out to make sure ;)16:56
jcastro!16:56
popeyunmounted btrfs volume first of course ☺16:56
snap-lpopey: chicken. ;)16:56
jcastroI am getting close to really needing raid516:56
popeypulled all four out so i could label them and put them back in different places, so test if it's the disk or the slot16:56
jcastroI overbought the size of the disks to stay on raid1 as much as I could16:56
popeyshoved them back in, mounted it, no problem16:56
snap-ljcastro: You're getting close to needing a data center16:56
popeyno downtime16:57
jcastronah, hp microserver ftw16:57
popey+116:57
snap-lI need to look into one of those whenever I get some mad money again16:57
jcastrojono just txted me that they almost had mc hammer at the booth16:58
jcastrothink about jono and vegas as you work all this week.16:58
jcastrolet that motivate you16:58
popeyhaha16:59
popey16:55:06 < popey> darkling: do you recommend doing a scrub periodically via cron?17:00
popey16:55:32 < darkling> Yes, I think it's a reasonable piece of maintenance to do.17:00
popeythere you go17:00
popeylooking forward to hearing all the juicy details about CES next week17:01
mhall119popey: will you be in SF?17:01
popeyya17:02
popeyleave on saturday17:02
jcastropopey: so other than some folks on the kernel team that tried it a few years ago, have you heard of anyone having problems with it?17:05
jcastroI want to do a talk at the lug about it17:05
jcastrobut I'm not really seeing anyone being like "omg I lost data." it's more like "I don't want to try it because I don't want to lose data."17:06
popeypeople turn up to #btrfs and tell tales of lost data17:08
popeythe problem is that the meme "btrfs loses data" has stuck17:08
popeyevery single time I mentioned btrfs at UDS someone said something about it losing data, every. single. time.17:09
snap-ljcastro: !!17:18
snap-ljcastro: Yes, please give a talk on btrfs17:18
jcastroI was thinking "btrfs for users"17:24
jcastroI can't answer questions about like, btree algorythms and stuff17:24
jcastrobut I know how to use and consume it like a boss17:24
popeythats a good idea actually, I might do a talk at my LUG about it17:25
jcastroOh don't worry, we'll have a G+ before I do it and compare notes17:25
popey"I use btrfs, and I still have my data"17:25
popeyexcellent17:25
jcastroI need to use snapshots more in my life17:26
jcastropopey: we should do them like the same month17:27
jcastropopey: that way if we have advanced questions we can be more efficient if we need to ping upstream17:28
jcastropopey: do a UUPC with chris mason pls17:28
jcastromhall119: yo yo18:49
jcastroI need your web expertise for a moment if you have time18:49
mhall119jcastro: whats up?18:54
