rick_h_painful00:46
snap-lWe're going to start the meeting in 5 minutes00:56
snap-lum, 4 minutes. :)00:56
snap-lAlso, Skinny Puppy Weapon is an awesome album00:56
snap-lThat is all00:56
snap-lJoDee and I played two games of Pandemic. It's an excellent board game00:57
snap-lHighly recommended00:57
snap-lOK, let's get started01:00
snap-lhttp://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/ubuntu-michigan/520/detail/01:01
snap-lWho all is here?01:01
jrwrenpresent01:03
snap-lAnyone else here?01:04
snap-lWill give one more minute, and then we'll hit the agenda01:04
snap-lOK, before we hit the agenda, I wanted to highlight that we have a section on Ubuntu Discourse:01:05
snap-lhttp://ubuntu-discourse.org/t/category-definition-for-ubuntu-michigan/1026/201:05
snap-lIf someone would like to write up a definition for this category, please feel free01:06
snap-lotherwise I'll draft up something sooner or later.01:06
snap-l:)01:06
snap-lDiscourse is pretty cool. I can see myself using it more than the forums.01:06
snap-lAnyone else using discourse yet?01:07
snap-lOK, one more thing before we hit the agenda.01:09
snap-lRegarding verification: It looks like our group wouldn't make even basic verification. :)01:09
snap-lIf the participation in the latest Global Jam is to be believed01:10
snap-lI know it was a pretty bad weekend all around (especially since it had Ohio Linuxfest opposite it)01:10
snap-lbut I think we're more active as a social group rather than as a group that actually does things in the community01:11
snap-lI would love to be proven wrong01:11
jrwreni agree ;]01:12
snap-lOK. If someone would like to take us through verification, please feel free to speak up. Otherwise we'll let it lapse until we get a bug in our collective bottoms to go after it again.01:14
snap-lSpeaking of collective bottoms and terrible non-sequiters01:14
snap-lRELEASE PARTY!01:14
snap-l13.10 is coming out pretty soon.01:14
snap-lwaldo323 sent out a questionaire about which night / location might work best for folks01:15
snap-lor at least I think he did. Wil double check with him.01:15
snap-lmore information forthcoming on when and where it'll be held01:15
snap-lLast I talked with him it seemed like th Black Lotus in Clawson.01:15
snap-l(would be the location)01:16
snap-lIt's a decent place if you haven't been there, with decent parking and a golf simulator place next door01:16
snap-lSo, until we hear more, more to come. :)01:17
snap-lAny questions, comments, concerns?01:17
snap-l(If you haven't been to a release party yet, it's a lot of fun.)01:17
snap-l(Sometimes we even load up some machines with the latest Ubuntu)01:17
snap-lThat's all I have at the moment. Any further business to discuss?01:21
wafnope01:21
snap-lhttp://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/ubuntu-michigan/521/detail/01:22
snap-l^ Next meeting should be normal time01:22
waldo323about to lookat the logs to see what i missed :-\01:22
snap-lI'd like to thank everyone for indulging me for moving the meeting01:22
snap-lwaldo323: You're on the hook for the release party. :)01:22
snap-lwaldo323: And things that aren't in the logs (muhahahaha)01:23
snap-lwaldo323: (note: not really)01:23
waldo323not really about the logs or release party ;)01:23
snap-llogs01:23
snap-lyou're still on the hook for the release party. :)01:24
snap-lany updates?01:24
snap-l(note: saying "more to come" is perfectly OK. :) )01:24
waldo323i am going to look at the google doc in a couple minutes and see which date is best01:24
snap-lkk01:25
waldo323for us i think the 12th is best at this point or the 18th but sarah can't make it that day01:25
snap-l12th would be better for me01:25
waldo323anyone else here who wants to put in their best availability would be helpful :)01:26
snap-lOr just post it to the list. :)01:28
snap-lThat usually gets some folks attention01:28
waldo323i did a while back, would it be spamming to send it again?01:29
snap-lI don't believe so01:29
snap-lIt's closer to the event01:29
waldo323ok, i think i'll modify the form so the results are easier to read first01:30
waldo323we could just shoot for the 12th01:31
snap-lIt's a saturday, and those usually (usually) get more attention01:32
waldo323how bout black lotus this time?01:34
snap-lI don't have a problem with it.01:35
snap-l(I think we're watching decision making history here, folks. :) )01:35
waldo3236 to 9 and people can stay how ever long though we need to leave a bit earlier01:37
waldo3236 pm to 9 pm EST or EDT what ever it is right now01:38
snap-lCool. Please post to the list, and we'll get the word out. :)01:38
snap-lThank you!01:38
snap-lOK, unless there's something else to discuss, I think we've covered it all and can call this meeting adjourned01:43
snap-lThank you everyone for coming on out!01:47

DrDaemonEyemorning snap-l11:47
rick_h_morning11:50
rick_h_the morning email deluge is sweeping me away! back to the woods!11:50
=== _stink__ is now known as _stink_
snap-lrick_h_: No no, you must surf the wave. :)12:23
snap-l(Now would be a great time to try the two-minute rule. :) )12:24
rick_h_phew, email kind of caught up13:22
snap-lHeh13:26
snap-lStupid Traffic on I-696 really sucked this morning13:26
wafah, i wonder if that's where my coworker is.13:39
snap-lWell, it was closer to Woodward. They mentioned that two left lanes were closed, so people were doing all sorts of heroics to get off the freeway13:40
snap-land turns out there wasn't anything.13:40
snap-lAnd they wonder why people don't pay any attention to signs in Michigan13:41
wafrick_h_: you see http://pse.contraterrene.com/engine/ ?13:44
wafhitting hn as 'solving the bookmark problem'13:44
rick_h_waf: no, hadn't seen that. I like that it fits with the idea of notes I want to do. The selection via the bookmarklet is smart and useful in that situation13:47
rick_h_waf: so I'm confused. The presentation says 'the data stays on your computer' but the bookmarklet looks to be seding it to http://pse.contraterrene.com/engine/index.html13:51
snap-lI have already solved my bookmark problems. :)13:55
rick_h_that's the only problem with the vacation I didn't get the bookie hacking time i had hoped for.13:56
snap-lrick_h_: That's why they call it a "Vacation". :)13:56
rick_h_bah! :P13:56
widoxrick_h_: doesn't seem to be making any network requests for me13:57
widoxusing local storage13:57
widoxthis thing sure is ugly though13:58
snap-lSo that's pretty useless unless you're on the same machine13:58
widoxyeah13:58
rick_h_ok I was just trying to read the bookmarklet. It shows a network call. Wonder how he's doing fulltext in the browser then. Did web storage implement the fulltext bit of sqlite?13:59
brouschjrwren: http://www.raspyfi.com/14:27
jrwrencool15:01
snap-lYeah, the Pi has problems with Squeezelite15:01
snap-lHonestly, just getting an off-board DAC is probably "good enough"15:01
snap-lhttp://schiit.com/products/modi15:05
rick_h_snap-l: back to snap-l eh?15:58
rick_h_snap-l: are we good for CHC this week? /me isn't recalling15:58
snap-lWe have one last weel16:06

cmaloneyStrange16:08
ColonelPanic001snap-l is no more?16:20
rick_h_cmaloney: *confused* you did or didn't want to change the name?16:25
cmaloneyI didn't change it on purpose16:27
cmaloneysnap-l is my back-up name if it can't get cmaloney16:27
ColonelPanic001I don't remember seeing you not use snap-l16:33
ColonelPanic001it's like I don't even know you anymore.16:33
cmaloneyColonelPanic001: Speaking of which... your move. :)16:40
ColonelPanic001I think I'm doomed on that 9x916:42
ColonelPanic001maybe only mostly doomed16:42
ColonelPanic001we'll see16:42
cmaloneyFunny, I think I'm doomed on that 9x9 game16:43
cmaloneySince you have a few captures.16:43
ColonelPanic001it'll be the first game in history in which both players lose16:43
ColonelPanic001how exciting16:43
* greg-g swoops in for the inw16:44
greg-ggah!16:44
ColonelPanic001less swoop16:44
ColonelPanic001more crash.16:44
greg-gwhy do people chew with their mouths open in public?17:32
greg-gand slurp their cereal17:32
wafbecause they heard that it pissed off greg grossmeier, and they want to stick it to you.17:36
greg-glikely17:38
jrwrenmanners aren't the same everywhere.17:38
jrwrenoutside of the western world, those things aren't considered rude.17:38
cmaloneyPretty sure California is the epicenter of the western world17:38
cmaloneyand as such is bound by the customs of our people17:39
cmaloneyNo chewing with mouth open, no slurping, and certainly do not wear a white codpiece after labour day.17:40
greg-gjrwren: what craig said. She's not from another country, not even Canada.17:45
rick_h_lol17:45
rick_h_greg-g: it annoys the $#@$@# out of me and my wife does it sometimes.17:45
rick_h_I confronted her once and she denied it 100% and I've given up17:45
brouschsquirt gun it17:45
rick_h_lol!17:45
brousch"If you don't have your moth open how'd the water get in there?!"17:46
rick_h_s/kitty trainer 3000/wife trainer 300017:46
cmaloneyYeah, that wouldn't show up in the divorce proceedings17:46
rick_h_yea, we just lived together in a 23' box for a week. I'll have to wait to test that one out17:47
cmaloneyi think you could make it a research project17:48
cmaloneyRemember to take copious amounts of data.17:49
cmaloneyAlso film it17:49

cmaloneyNice panorama17:51
* cmaloney checks to see if it would make a good widescreen wallpaper17:52
cmaloneynotsomuch17:53
rick_h_heh17:53
cmaloneyNeeds some cropping17:53
rick_h_yea, I need to crop the end off there17:53
rick_h_the camers doesn't do well with telling you how much tmie time youve' got left before it quits17:54
greg-gbrousch: ++ to squirt gun17:54
rick_h_so you kind of go and try to guess the right speed17:54
greg-grick_h_: yeah, so does Carrie sometimes :)17:54
jrwreni talk with food in my mouth, knowing the whole time its bad manners.18:00
jrwren:)18:00
rick_h_yea, we've stopped and trying to teach the boy not to18:00
rick_h_and grandpa kept doing it and getting corrected18:00
rick_h_love it when a 3yr fusses at grandpa "don't talk with food your mouth grandpa!"18:00
greg-gyeah, I constantly did that to my dad growing up.18:00
ColonelPanic001food18:09
ColonelPanic001er, good18:09
ColonelPanic001people chewing with their mouth open is up there with people that don't flush the toilet or kill puppies18:10
rick_h_heh, I've started the training for 'put the seat down now that you've gone potty'18:10
rick_h_it's the little things you have to teach these little monsters lol18:10
jrwrenAmazon Linux AMI 2013.09 with kernel 3.4.62, lolz18:13
jcastroPARTY LIKE IT IS 200518:20
greg-gColonelPanic001: are you against water conservation?18:21
ColonelPanic001Yes, we have plenty of water18:22
ColonelPanic001fish pee in water all the time, how can it be bad? It's natural.18:22
greg-gColonelPanic001: :-(18:23
ColonelPanic001what? I flush it, and it just goes back out to the lakes18:24
ColonelPanic001it doesn't get used up, it's okay18:24
greg-g:-( :-(18:24
ColonelPanic001it's the circle of life. er, water.18:24
brouschIt's not like it dissipates into space. It goes to the treatment plant, gets cleaned up a bit, then flows back to the lake18:25
brouschI'm sure people in the desert states have a different view18:26
brouschBut it's their own fault for living in a frigging desert18:26
greg-gwell, cuz that treatment facility is net-zero waste, right? (hint: it isn't)18:28
brouschThey make fertilizer pellets out of the poopy parts18:29
cmaloneyI figure my little piddlings are helping push along the nuclear shits closer to the treatment plant18:29
cmaloneyso all in all a net win18:29
cmaloneyI don't want to be in the same county as my most nuclear of shits, let alone have them fester in the sewer system.18:30
ColonelPanic001I'm just being sarcastic to watch greg-g :( a lot.18:30
greg-g:-(18:33
ColonelPanic001yeah, like that18:33
ColonelPanic001I also like to print every email just for easier reading18:33
greg-goh, that one makes sense18:34
rick_h_cmaloney: so erica was asking when the wine tasting is.18:34
rick_h_we ended up joining a wine club for one of the VA wineries we went to18:34
cmaloneyOh, nice18:36
brouschTraitor! You should be drinking Michigan wines!18:36
cmaloneyrick_h_: We're still working on it. :)18:36
rick_h_brousch: :P18:36
rick_h_brousch: I've only been to one MI winery and...meh18:36
rick_h_it wasn't http://www.flickr.com/photos/7508761@N03/9917148276/18:37

rick_h_greg-g: heh I know, but getting out there isn't easy18:39

rick_h_greg-g: though OR has some good wines out of it18:40
cmaloneyyoungster, even18:40

cmaloneyrick_h_: bah, we'll get you on the Michigan bandwagon18:40
greg-grick_h_: yeah, def some good pinot noirs up there18:40
rick_h_greg-g: ok, crash at your place18:40

rick_h_lol18:42
cmaloneyThey're actually quite good18:42
cmaloneyand not in a "good for a $4 bottle of wine" good. I mean comparable to a $12 of wine.18:43
cmaloneyNot had their Pinot, so not sure if it's comparable.18:44
brouschFenn Valley is one of our favorites http://lh3.ggpht.com/-Gd2KL-6P9S0/Ue0sujSDw-I/AAAAAAAAFsg/YBrlZn7AiQw/s800/IMG_0039.jpg18:44

rick_h_lol18:47
rick_h_that food and wine article is good18:47
rick_h_though I do like the mountains backdrop of the VA places we've been to :)18:47
cmaloneyWell, if you're about mountain backgrops, Michigan isn't going to cut it, certainly.18:48
cmaloneyBut we do have Sleeping Bear Dunes.18:48
brouschWe have dunes!18:48
rick_h_lol18:48
brouschSand mountains!18:48
cmaloneyWe also don't have mountain drivers18:49

cmaloneyNo, I think this is all you.19:04
jrwrenwhat can I say? when you have a hammer that looks like multi_curl, then everything looks like a nailed url19:04
