brouschhttp://slashdot.org/story/13/02/21/2216221/microsoft-azure-overtakes-amazons-cloud-in-performance-test13:37
snap-lApparently Microsoft has more unused computers than Amazon13:38
snap-lwho knew?13:38
snap-lMaybe that's one of the reasons Microsoft wants Windows 8 adoption: because every Windows 8 machine has a little Azure micro-instance in it that will allow it to scale out Azure computing13:39
snap-lTHat's why they have that impenetrable user interface! So nobody will suspect a thing13:40
snap-lDamn you Microsoft!13:40

rick_h_brousch: nope, birthday == holiday14:53
rick_h_brousch: don't work on your birthday, it's not good for you.14:53
brouschWhat kind of elementary school thing is that?14:54
rick_h_though maybe I'll find a coffee shop and hack on something fun after lunch14:54
snap-lbrousch: I think you're just now noticing14:55

jjesserick_h_,  how long did you pebble take to ship?  or did your notification come after it arrived?  i just got the 48 hours to confirm your shipping address and i'm going to be gone next week15:09
jjesseand wondering if i should ship it to the hotel15:09
snap-ljjesse: Resist the temptation. :)15:18
snap-lOtherwise you'll have pebble-limbo15:18
jjesseyeah15:20
jjesseso this happened w/ my Nexus 715:21
jjesseit arrived when i was on the road15:21
snap-lIt'll be there when you get back15:21
jjessewell its shipping to the office so i don't know if the idiots I work w/ will hid it :)15:22
snap-lWhy did you have it shipped there?15:22
jjessebecause UPS/FedEx tends to not leave packages at my door if someone isn't home15:22
snap-lThat sucks15:23
jjesseyeah it does hence the shipping of stuff to the office15:23
snap-lMine tends to leave things without too much problem.15:23

brouschOh wow "Ubuntu Touch relies on a stripped-down version of CyanogenMod 10.1 for its Linux kernel, and support for hardware including audio, video, graphics, and modems."18:20
slestakbrousch: is that a good thing?18:30
brouschI don't see how it's bad18:37
slestakjust wondered what your take was.  ive not had a phoen that could use cyanogenmod so wasnt sure18:38
tony-smlrbrousch: do you have an artical that talks about ubuntu touch?  I want to talk about it on my show this week...19:15
