jcastrooh ok16:42
elfyyou're already there as a user - as is everyone who was registered when IS did the snapshot16:42
vibhavIt is not nice of Canonical to tease me with countdowns.16:50
vibhavNot nice at all :(16:50
jcastroI blame popey16:50
jcastrohe uses a countdown for everything16:51
popey\o/16:51
popeycountdown to shutdown16:51
vibhavI have to remove the drool on my keyboard everytime this happens16:51
popeyhah16:51
vibhavAlso, as usual, I will expect lots o' FUD to arise.16:52
popeymeh16:52
jcastrohaters be hatin16:52
vibhav"Canonical is releasing Ubuntu Tablets with closed source drivers"16:52
jcastroit's really the countdown to popey getting a new summer coat16:52
vibhavheh16:53
PiciOnce the countdown completes, can we make sure that people are pointed to the right place to get answers about whatever is being announced.16:53
vibhavPici: We will probably use #ubuntu-discus16:54
vibhavdiscuss*16:54
Picivibhav: Please.16:54
vibhavPici: ?16:54
Picivibhav: Er, I mean please do that.16:54
vibhavah :)16:54
jcastromhall119: ping16:55
vibhavpopey: Any way to implement what Pici said?16:55
* popey notes #ubuntu-tablet has existed for some time ☺16:55
mhall119jcastro: pong16:55
jcastromhall119: explain like I am 5 .... are we off today in the US?16:55
Picipopey: that works fine too16:55
mhall119jcastro: you are, yes,  because nobody's put a giant count-down teaser on the website for juju :(16:56
jcastro<--- dedicated, worked half a day already and didn't even realize it.16:56
vibhavYes, put juju countdowns too16:56
jcastroman, no wonder no one is showing up to meetings!16:56
mhall119lol16:57
PiciPff. This isn't a real holiday.16:57
vibhavTick-tock juju time?16:57
jcastrowe (Americans) don't get as many holidays as the rest of the world, so I'll take whatever I can get.16:58
jcastrodholbach is probably off today, for example16:58
jcastro:p16:58
mhall119I bet he is16:58
jcastro"oh man, it's beer day"16:58
vibhavHow can you guys take hoidays while working on Ubuntu?16:59
vibhavI work on Ubuntu during my holidays.16:59
jcastroI used to work my holidays when I didn't work on ubuntu full time17:00
mhall119why do these teasers always show up when I'm not supposed to be working?17:00
jcastrobut as a day job + holidays, that can lead to pain.17:00
jcastroso I try to have non-computing hobbies to balance things out17:00
dholbach /ignore jcastro17:00
dholbach"oops"17:00
jcastroheh17:00
Picinon-computing?17:00
Picidoes not compute....17:00
jcastroI know right17:01
jcastroa while back17:01
jcastroI forgot when17:01
jcastrowhen I was first starting out17:01
jcastroit was a saturday17:01
jcastroand I didn't even know, I just got up and started working17:01
popey!enter17:01
ubot2Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line. Don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!17:01
jcastro"Man, I wonder why IRC is so empty!"17:01
dholbachjcastro, I told you a million times: if politicians take away your holidays, you're likely voting for the wrong ones AND: Berlin and the US have the same amount of public holidays AND we don't have the concept of "bank holidays", ie: holiday is on sunday, bad luck, go back to work on monday17:01
jcastrodholbach: I'm just trolling you man17:02
* dholbach should set up a jcastro-holiday bot17:02
jcastrono need to get all nationalistic on me17:02
dholbachyeah yeah17:02
dholbachI can't see what you just said...17:02
jcastrodholbach: is it octoberfest over there yet?17:02
dholbachlalallalala lalala17:02
popeyThose traditionally efficient Germans and their regimented holidays huh?17:02
dholbachit's always Oktoberfest17:02
jcastro\m/17:02
jcastrohell yeah17:02
vibhavMy school doesnt believe in holidays :(17:02

jcastrooh, you've got plenty of time to holiday17:03
jcastroyou're still young and full of hope and stuff.17:03
vibhavMy school manages to call us on public holidays, I dont know how.17:03

popeywow17:07
popeywith ubuntu?17:07
mhall119probably with hardware17:07
vibhavImpressive.17:07
vibhavmhall119: There was a reply to the questin on why Ubuntu doesnt do its own hardware, right? Do you remember it?17:09
mhall119vibhav: I don't know which one you're referring to17:10
mhall119but I usually respond with the fact that doing hardware requires a *lot* of logistics and has a very low margin17:11
vibhavmhall119: I remember seeing a G+ comment where you said Ubuntu doing its own hardware would violate its philosophy17:11
vibhavSome people are ranting about Ubuntu doing its own hardware, I wanted to clear things out.17:12
mhall119vibhav: I don't recall ever saying that17:12
vibhavhmm, I am mistaken then17:12
mhall119maybe it was in a wider discussion about Netflix and DRM?17:12
vibhavProbably17:12
mhall119I've said that we could technically support Netflix's DRM, but we would have to lock users out of controlling their OS, which is against our philosophy17:13
vibhavah yes17:13
vibhavExcuse my foggy memory17:13
dholbachall right my friends - I call it a day - see you all tomorrow17:44
=== imbrando1 is now known as imbrandon
=== zequence_ is now known as zequence
JoseeAntonioRjono: locking the Q&A on wed?19:11
jonoJoseeAntonioR, yep19:13
JoseeAntonioRgreat, thanks19:14
MrChrisDruifI'm looking for Steve George apparently. Does anyone know how to contact him?20:26
JanCMrChrisDruif: https://launchpad.net/~slgeorge/+contactuser  (if that's the same Steve George)20:29
MrChrisDruifOr anyone else that can point me into the direction where I can buy an Dell XPS 13 (possibly)20:30
JanCis that the Dell developer ultrabook?20:30
MrChrisDruifI wouldn't know JanC. He is apparently part of the Canonical Blog?20:30
MrChrisDruifJanC; That's the one. Reason I'm asking for George is a reference from someone else.20:31
JanCyou know it's previous generation hardware, right?  (which might be good or bad, depending on what you are looking for)20:32
MrChrisDruifIntel® Core™ i7-3537U processor (met Turbo Boost 2.0 tot 3,10 GHz)20:33
JanCthey upgraded it?20:34
MrChrisDruifYes, recently.20:34
MrChrisDruifJanC; https://plus.google.com/u/0/111723730151133168293/posts/AAEG14QNpXr20:35
JanCah, that's a good sign, because at first it was previous generation hardware when the new generation was on the market for months already, which was a bit disappointing  ☺20:36
MrChrisDruifNow it's 3rd gen Core i5/i7 ;-)20:37
JanCand a better display, apparently20:37
MrChrisDruifYup, that was the first thing I noticed. FHD! =D20:38
MrChrisDruifBut I can't find a link to buy it with Ubuntu in the Netherlands <_<"20:38
JanCMrChrisDruif: if you know somebody who has an account manager at Dell NL, let him/her call that account manager and buy it for you (good account managers can fix all sorts of "unusual requests", from what I hear)20:41
MrChrisDruifGhehe ^_^20:42
popeyMrChrisDruif: i think you might be a bit premature20:51
MrChrisDruifIt's not my fault it's printed on the website popey ^_^20:54
MrChrisDruif"Also available across Europe, parts of the Middle East and Africa." http://www.ubuntu.com/partners/dell/dellxps20:55
czajkowskiMrChrisDruif: usually by country specific20:56
popey" Dell will also be making it available in parts of Europe, the Middle East and Africa."21:00
AlanBellooh with a nice display now22:01
AlanBellnice all round. My credit card would be in trouble if Dell would sell it to me in the UK.22:04
