[02:02] o/ [03:41] stlsaint: Heh, howdy again. [03:55] Unit193: o/ [18:01] ugh...finally getting second old machine up for my younger daughter [18:01] i freaking hate compiz... [18:01] basically, plain ubuntu, not gonna work [18:02] Anyone have one of the newer super low end nvidia cards, like a gt 210 or 610 [18:02] and know if it works well for basic 2d stuff? [18:03] Or I'll just say screw it, and give xubuntu a go on it instead... === Guest25710 is now known as jrgifford [19:02] gilbert Any nominations floating around that I didn't catch from the mailing list? [19:10] i think it's just one, right now. [19:10] yours, right? [19:18] skellat: just yours [19:18] will send a mail in a bit [19:26] :-( [19:26] yeah, i suppose its an "interesting" situation [19:27] seems like a top priority for the group is going to need to be attracting participants [19:27] which can later become leaders [19:30] I'd say at this point that since there were less nominations than seats, the election failed. The council would just go away leaving gilbert as Point of Contact. [19:31] don't agree [19:31] Okay [19:31] gilbert: How do you wish to proceed? [19:32] having new people take leadership roles is important [19:47] I think we could have a "yes/no" vote on "do you want skellat to take one of the empty seats?" [19:47] it doesn't have to be a choice between multiple people necessarily [19:48] and perhaps you could do something like "ok, q2, is going to be the go-to point person on anything that gilbert and skellat need help with" "q3 will be " it'd give a chance for folks to take on a bit more responsibility without feeling like "omg commitment!" [20:26] congrats skellat [20:29] skellat: Congrats. [20:29] gilbert: Sorry to see you go as well. :/ [20:30] Unit193: thanks :) [20:30] Unit193: i'll still be in irc for the forceable future [20:33] gilbert, while i am sorry to see you leave, i understand. [20:33] thanks jrgifford [20:33] i've been thinking on similar lines, but ubuntu is still the OS of choice for me. [20:34] so I guess this makes skellat gadfaw [20:34] group appointed dictator for a while [20:34] gadfaw? [20:34] haha, yes indeed [20:34] vs sabdfl [20:35] jrgifford: debian is quite nice :) [20:35] As was said often on "Quantum Leap": "Oooooooooohhhh boy..." [20:35] plus there are me and paultag as DDs :) [20:35] I am liking xubuntu [20:35] gilbert, yeah, i know. [20:35] jrgifford: That's why it doesn't hit me nearly as much, Xubuntu is very community based. [20:35] it's free of at least some of the overreaching changes, has a bit of autonomy, and so far is working pretty nicely for my setup :) [20:36] \o/ [20:36] Ubuntu Ohio to me includes all the flavors too [20:36] It'd kind of have to. [20:36] i really like the polish of unity. argue about it all you want, it fits my workflow. although, i am starting to enjoy crunchbang. ;P [20:36] After all, I've got Xubuntu and Lubuntu running at home yet no machine has a graphics card capable of coping with Unity [20:36] jrgifford: it worked for me until I got bigger monitors :) the bar on the far left was just too far away [20:36] Debian's my first and only real love [20:37] Last Ubuntu was 6.10. [20:37] sure that fling with Ubuntu was fun [20:37] but Debian. That's where I need to be :) [20:37] haha, paultag had a "fling" :) [20:37] :> [20:37] Xfce4 in debian isn't as up to date, sadly. [20:37] Cheri703, see, i am really a laptop guy. don't have multiple monitors, for the most part [20:37] Unit193: sounds like you found a way to contribute! [20:37] Do we need to talk about my adventures in openSUSE? [20:37] Unit193: also; did you check exerpiemental? [20:37] ah, yeah, on a laptop it'd be fine. :) [20:38] paultag: I think it may be in there. [20:38] I have 2 24" 16:10 now [20:41] Unit193: xfce is 4.10 in experimental, which is what i use. i like to live dangerously ;) [20:51] Unit193: plus wheezy will be releasy real soon now, and you'll be able to get your latest and greatest fix in jessie or sid again [20:51] is jessie whats next? [20:52] jrgifford: yep [20:52] cool [20:56] i will readily admit that debian freezes are annoying [20:57] they are now that they're so long [21:03] even when they were 6 months they were annoying [21:03] http://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu-us-ohio@lists.launchpad.net/msg01258.html [21:11] skellat: i just gave you voice status, hopefully that persists [21:11] stirring speak from our gadfaw! [21:12] er, email. ;P [21:13] man, it's that time of year again. check all my ISOs, delete most of them, and spend more bandwidth downloading more. ;P [23:31] hehe http://www.geeksaresexy.net/2013/04/07/do-not-disturb-pic/ [23:45] well... *this* is scary. [23:52] ? [23:52] Ehh.. forgot to paste. :) [23:52] http://thejh.net/misc/website-terminal-copy-paste [23:52] heh [23:52] I was like, "well THAT is scary" [23:53] Heh. [23:53] oh, yeah. that. [23:53] View -> Page View ... No Style [23:53] or, view source [23:53] or, copy it and paste it into a text file, first. [23:57] * canthus13 nods. [23:57] most people will blindly copypasta, though. [23:58] how sad for them
