jrgifford | skellat, how'd tuesday go? | 14:46 |
skellat | jrgifford: Long, low turnout, and a bunch of voters kept coming to the wrong precinct so I had to sign off on redirection sheets. Plus I had to call some IDs into question which caused all sorts of consternation. | 14:50 |
skellat | jrgifford: I did have one provisional ballot voter I had to shepherd through due to a voter registration/presented identification mismatch. That got interesting. The law on all that is gonna change in June too. | 14:53 |
jrgifford | fun | 14:55 |
jrgifford | isn't ohio the only place in the US where you can vote with a fishing license? | 14:56 |
=== JonathanS is now known as JonathanD | ||
skellat | jrgifford: Umm...no. | 15:06 |
skellat | jrgifford: Fishing license isn't usable if it doesn't bear your current address | 15:06 |
jrgifford | skellat, right, so if fishing license has your current address, it's ok. | 15:07 |
skellat | jrgifford: If it does, though, it is usable. Heck, a "letter from a government agency addressed to you" counts. | 15:07 |
skellat | Our ID rules are kinda bonkers | 15:07 |
skellat | Which is why it is still shocking when I get a provisional ballot situation. | 15:08 |
jrgifford | well, you can't complain that you're disenfranchising voters if your ID rules are that... loose. | 15:08 |
skellat | jrgifford: Yeah | 15:08 |
skellat | That we don't even require cause for issuance of absentee ballots also loosens things up too | 15:09 |
skellat | Which is why the 16.6% turnout we had sucked. There was no reason for it simply as the only barrier left was individual voter uninterest/lack of comprehension. | 15:09 |
skellat | jrgifford: How many years yet until you get to vote? | 15:13 |
jrgifford | skellat, ~1.2 | 15:14 |
jrgifford | and that's a terrible turnout. | 15:14 |
skellat | Yeah, it was | 15:14 |
skellat | So, you'll be eligible in time to vote in the next election for Governor in November 2014. Technically you'll be able to vote in the primary next May even as a 17 year old but that is a little messy. | 15:15 |
jrgifford | right, because i turn 18 before the general election, i can vote in the primary. | 15:16 |
jrgifford | i intend to try, but as you said, it'll be a little messy. :) | 15:16 |
skellat | Thankfully the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections has a huge staff compared to Ashtabula County's. Talk to them next February and they'll get you set up. | 15:19 |

skellat | Apparently we're having a wild day today on FreeNode with netsplits abounding | 19:24 |
drkokandy | I go this the last time I got bumped & reconnected: [14:36:18] [kloeri] [Global Notice] Hi all, apologies for the continued netsplits. We're having some issues stemming from a DDoS attack but we're working with our sponsors on attack mitigation. Thank you for using freenode. | 19:25 |
drkokandy | *I GOT this | 19:25 |
skellat | Yep | 19:26 |
skellat | The virtual Ubuntu Developer Summit is gonna be fun next week if we have this happen | 19:26 |
skellat | Otherwise, how is the life out Ashland way drkokandy? | 19:27 |
drkokandy | cold today down here... we had commencement today at the University. a little sad that the nice weather couldn't have continued just through today for our new grads | 19:28 |
yano | it's actually "freenode" | 19:29 |
yano | :3 | 19:29 |
skellat | yano: Okay. I get too used to camel case dealing with Wikipedia and all | 19:29 |
drkokandy | what if camel case were spelled CamelCase ? :-) | 19:30 |
yano | no worries | 19:30 |
yano | hah | 19:30 |
Unit193 | ...SASL, CertFP, and server password setup. Not a single one worked... | 19:30 |
skellat | drkokandy: I thought Wikipedia had a recursion loop on that at one point | 19:30 |
skellat | Unit193: You're starting in the middle. What's goin' on? | 19:31 |
drkokandy | as it should :-) skellat | 19:31 |
Unit193 | That'd be why. Services are down. :) | 19:31 |
skellat | Well | 19:32 |
skellat | I wonder what it would take to get a fall-back XMPP conference room set up for the LoCo somewhere | 19:32 |
skellat | Defense in depth is wonderful with multiple fall backs | 19:33 |
skellat | That's a thought for another time, though | 19:34 |
drkokandy | I'm sure there are other free IRC hosts | 19:34 |
drkokandy | but it looks calmer now | 19:34 |
skellat | This doesn't look good: "(03:33:46 PM) christel has changed the topic to: 21:31:42 jechu [~dvrq@118.99.71.3] requested unknown CTCP FREENODE from #freenode: IS BEING DDOSSED RIGHT NOW BECAUSE WE DONT LIKE THE WAY THINGS ARE BEING MANAGED. EXPECT MORE IF THERE IS NO CHANGE. - Public service announcement by Mr. Jechu." | 19:34 |
drkokandy | wll | 19:35 |
drkokandy | well | 19:35 |
skellat | I'm thinking more in terms of like when we were renovating the chicken coop out at the farm in central Ashtabula County. We've got multiple layers of defense for the chickens to lay eggs in case of coyotes. The first is the barn cats on guard. Second is fencing. Third is fencing on the coop. Fourth is some reinforcement inside the coop. Idea is that the cats are the trip wire in case of coyotes and that the other layers slow 'em down unt | 19:37 |
skellat | We lose freenode we can fall back to something else. We lose the fallback, we fall back to something else. Worst comes to worst, I put stamps on postcards and mail things to people I suppose. | 19:38 |
jrgifford | we could always go to debian land | 19:39 |
jrgifford | take up residence in #ubuntu-expats-us-oh | 19:39 |
skellat | Just have to tack on "refugees" somewhere, I suppose | 19:40 |
skellat | Mind you, these are all theoretical notions. I'm still watching the scroll-by in #freenode as the melodrama continues. | 19:40 |
jrgifford | i need to start hanging out on the debian servers more often anyway. i mean, that's where paultag is! | 19:46 |
skellat | Yep | 19:46 |
skellat | I just need to figure out what I'm doing wrong with my ZNC configuration to be on both networks at the same time | 19:46 |
drkokandy | in Quassel I'm on 3 servers right now... in a total of 16 room | 19:47 |
drkokandy | s | 19:47 |
Unit193 | jrgifford: I'm on OFTC, but only 2 channels. :D | 19:49 |
Unit193 | smxi and debian-mentors. | 19:49 |
yano | i'm on OFTC too | 19:51 |
yano | i'm on too many networks | 19:51 |
yano | and too many channels on freenode | 19:51 |
paultag | jrgifford: :) | 20:00 |
