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