adom | whoa is this thing still on? | 14:19 |
adom | just brought my screen session back up, cant believe its still running! | 14:20 |
adom | 10:21 -!- Irssi: Uptime: 152d 11h 41m 39s | 14:21 |
adom | well anyway, for those few of you that remember me, i have bad news. i recently moved to VA. so I'll be looking for an Ubuntu users group here. still love you guys though. | 14:22 |
adom | ok, so there might not be any...but im in high hopes | 14:23 |
JonathanD | start one :P | 14:24 |
adom | i guess i could... | 14:25 |
adom | just seems like a bunch of idling and minimal interaction :/ | 14:25 |
ChinnoBunny | I turned into a bunny | 15:34 |
=== ChinnoBunny is now known as ChinnoDog | ||
ChinnoDog | adom: where in VA? | 15:35 |
adom | Woodbridge. about a half hour South of Washington D.C. | 15:36 |
adom | its really close actually, but traffic down here is hurrendous | 15:36 |
adom | actually, arent you guys all near Philly? i guess you know bad traffic as well...haha | 15:36 |
adom | there are days when my gf drives home from her new job in Springfield which is like 18 miles away and it takes her over an hour. | 15:37 |
adom | although now she's learned some different routes to shave off minutes here and there. | 15:38 |
ChinnoDog | You live near IKEA | 15:39 |
adom | yeah, been there like 4 times already. in love. | 15:40 |
adom | ChinnoDog: do you know the area? | 15:40 |
ChinnoDog | adom: I live in Merrifield, about 25 minutes away. | 15:42 |
ChinnoDog | I mean, in good traffic. You know how that goes. | 15:42 |
adom | that's not far at all! i had an interview for a tier 1 network engineer position in Tyson's Corner last week. wow small world! | 15:43 |
adom | ChinnoDog: so wait, if you live here in VA like me, how'd you end up in #ubuntu-us-pa? | 15:43 |
ChinnoDog | I moved here. lol | 15:44 |
ChinnoDog | I've been here almost 2 years now | 15:44 |
ChinnoDog | Where in Tysons? | 15:44 |
adom | cool! | 15:44 |
adom | um... | 15:44 |
adom | thinking of business name... | 15:44 |
adom | i forget let me check email... | 15:44 |
adom | ChinnoDog: NTConnections http://www.ntconnections.net/PublicPages/Home.aspx | 15:45 |
adom | i turned it down in favor of a better offer | 15:45 |
adom | i actually got two great job offers in the same day and was pretty amazed | 15:46 |
adom | ChinnoDog: i cant believe we live so close! we should plan an awkward meet-up sometime! | 15:47 |
ChinnoDog | I asked where in Tysons because my office is there. | 15:48 |
adom | jesus. small world. | 15:49 |
adom | for all we know i couldve drove past you or something on that day. | 15:49 |
ChinnoDog | I don't see much Ubuntu activity here. I've been idling in #ubuntu-us-dc since I go here and it is pretty dead | 15:49 |
ChinnoDog | probably not. I work from home most days. | 15:50 |
adom | ahh | 15:50 |
adom | still cool tho | 15:50 |
ChinnoDog | When did you get here? | 15:51 |
adom | VA? about 2 months ago. gf got a great job offer in Springfield, so we quit our jobs (we had 4 between the two of us), packed the apartment, threw the dog in the cab of a uhaul and headed down. | 15:53 |
adom | big move for us, both of us have big "farm-families" back in PA and NY. | 15:53 |
adom | i see JonathanD in #ubuntu-us-dc as well...did he move down here too? | 15:55 |
ChinnoDog | Ephrata is not very amazing in terms of job market. lol | 15:56 |
JonathanD | adom: I run events so I hang out in all the reasonably local channels. | 15:56 |
JonathanD | But I'm near Philadelphia, myself. | 15:56 |
adom | JonathanD: cool cool cool | 15:56 |
JonathanD | Speaking of events... | 15:57 |
JonathanD | I'd like to do at least 2 geeknics this year. | 15:57 |
JonathanD | One to the Philly zoo, and one at a park (typical picnic with grills and frisbee and trails.) | 15:57 |
JonathanD | This summer, I mean. | 15:57 |
JonathanD | Any interest? :) | 16:00 |
ChinnoDog | That is a long way to go for a picnic | 16:03 |
InHisName | adom: Where in VA ? Near DC ? Ought to be plenty around there. | 16:28 |
InHisName | Ah Woodbridge, I used to live in Annandale years ago. | 16:29 |
adom | yeah talking to ChinnoDog and found out about #ubuntu-us-dc (even if it is a ghosttown apparently >.<) | 16:29 |
InHisName | Not so ghosty anymore with two of you there. | 16:33 |
InHisName | Isn't there a MAJOR hackerspace in DC ? | 16:34 |
adom | hmm, dunno. seems likely though. | 16:34 |
adom | yeah | 16:35 |
adom | http://www.hacdc.org/ | 16:35 |
JonathanD | ChinnoDog: too long? | 17:07 |
ChinnoDog | JonathanD: maybe | 17:09 |
ChinnoDog | I was going to frequent HacDC but it is too far away | 17:09 |
ChinnoDog | There are a couple in Virginia near Dulles though | 17:09 |
JonathanD | ChinnoDog: oh, too far. | 17:21 |
JonathanD | Yeah, the park especially. | 17:21 |
JonathanD | The zoo at least is in the city. | 17:21 |
JonathanD | The park is probably in the burbs. | 17:21 |
adom | HacDC membership dues are $50/month. seems steep just for being a member of the community. :/ | 17:23 |
jedijf | i think that's pretty much the average | 17:43 |
adom | rly? | 18:00 |
adom | im making a lot more here than i did in Erie, but that still might be a bit too expensive for my tastes. ill just keep to tinkering in our spare bedroom where i keep my PC parts. | 18:01 |
