cmaloney | greg-g: I wasn't aware of anything that I own that'll play FLAC via disc | 00:45 |
---|---|---|
cmaloney | Though I think there are some higher-end devices that will | 00:46 |
cmaloney | http://xiph.org/flac/links.html | 00:49 |
cmaloney | Honestly most of the FLAC compatible devices don't support discs or are "network players" | 00:51 |
cmaloney | http://usa.yamaha.com/products/audio-visual/hifi-components/cd-players/cd-n500_w/ | 00:51 |
cmaloney | Here you go: single CD Yamaha device. MSRP: $800 | 00:52 |
jrwren | can buy a USB cdrom drive and plug into an rpi for under $100 | 00:57 |
cmaloney | RPI's DAC is a piece of shit | 00:57 |
cmaloney | you'd need an external one | 00:57 |
cmaloney | http://usa.yamaha.com/products/audio-visual/hifi-components/cd-players/cd-s3000_u/?mode=model | 00:58 |
cmaloney | Doesnt' support FLAC, but at this price I don't think you'd be able to afford much else. | 00:58 |
jrwren | is it? | 00:59 |
jrwren | sad ot hear that. | 00:59 |
jrwren | oh right...i've only listened to the digital audio coming out the hdmi :( | 01:00 |
cmaloney | yeah, it's one of the compromises | 01:00 |
jrwren | lame DACs take me back :] | 01:00 |
jrwren | i called a buddy out on a bad DAC in a mobo that he had in his media server. | 01:00 |
cmaloney | Well, and that's the thing that pisses me off about the "analog snobs" vs. CDs | 01:01 |
cmaloney | I can get better and more consistent sound out of digital then you ever could out of analog | 01:02 |
cmaloney | and if "analog snobs" spent as much on CD players / DACs and found CD albums that weren't direct ports of shoddy LP masters then there would be no contest. | 01:03 |
jrwren | truth! | 01:03 |
cmaloney | but I digress | 01:03 |
cmaloney | I just laugh | 01:05 |
cmaloney | And quietly download the FLAC file and buy the CD album | 01:05 |
flipsidecreation | hello | 01:52 |
cmaloney | Hello there | 01:53 |
waldo323 | my phone seems to think its time for a meeting soon :-P | 01:53 |
cmaloney | We'll be starting the meeting in about 5 minutes | 01:53 |
waldo323 | due to the time change we get to start a couple minutes early? yay | 01:53 |
cmaloney | Smartarse. :) | 01:54 |
waldo323 | sorry it is contagious...we are watching dvr'd craig ferguson | 01:56 |
cmaloney | I <3 Craig Ferguson | 02:00 |
cmaloney | OK, let's get started | 02:00 |
cmaloney | http://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/ubuntu-michigan/521/detail/ | 02:01 |
cmaloney | That's the agenda | 02:01 |
cmaloney | First order of business: Verification | 02:02 |
cmaloney | We've been approached after our recent Approval expiration to come back into the verified loco fold | 02:02 |
cmaloney | I told them we're an older loco and most of our folks have moved on to other projects, but they seemed to think we could still make verification | 02:03 |
cmaloney | So with that in mind.. | 02:03 |
waldo323 | i got an email about that i think | 02:03 |
cmaloney | There's an application that we'll need to fill out and submit for verification | 02:03 |
cmaloney | I can fill that out and submit it if there are no objections | 02:04 |
cmaloney | I don't think it really gets us much of anything, but I think they want to encourage more groups to remain verified | 02:04 |
cmaloney | And by extension active and vibrant and what-not. | 02:05 |
cmaloney | So if there's no qualms about verification I'll start the paperwork. | 02:05 |
cmaloney | Any questions? | 02:05 |
waldo323 | sounds good to me | 02:05 |
cmaloney | Anyone else? | 02:07 |
cmaloney | OK. Anything else we should cover? | 02:09 |
waldo323 | penguicon is open for talks | 02:11 |
cmaloney | OK. Tell us more? | 02:11 |
waldo323 | http://2014.penguicon.org/get-involved/#presenting | 02:12 |
gamerchick02 | i've no issue about the verification. | 02:12 |
gamerchick02 | sorry i wandered off | 02:12 |
waldo323 | Kevin O'Brien and I and perhaps krunal are working on the tech track | 02:13 |
waldo323 | we would like to have a central theme on privacy and security but will certainly accept talks in other areas of computing and tech | 02:13 |
cmaloney | waldo323: Maybe we could post this on the mailing list? | 02:14 |
cmaloney | Ot | 02:14 |
cmaloney | It'd be nice to have some of these talks nailed down sooner than later. :) | 02:14 |
waldo323 | we will, kevin has a draft of a call for talks so we'll hopefully have something out soon | 02:15 |
cmaloney | Awesomesauce | 02:15 |
flipsidecreation | Hello, I am planning on going to Penguincon, it will be my first one. I seen some videos and talked to some people, sounds like a great time. | 02:19 |
cmaloney | It is. It's a lot of fun | 02:19 |
flipsidecreation | looks like it. :) | 02:21 |
cmaloney | OK, unless there's anything else I think we can call this meeting adjourned. | 02:21 |
waldo323 | thanks for hosting :) | 02:23 |
cmaloney | Thank you all for coming! | 02:23 |
waldo323 | it is a great day for america, have a good night | 02:39 |
cmaloney | Good morning | 13:55 |
rick_h_ | morning | 13:55 |
cmaloney | Apparently JoDee is now on Kickstarter | 14:09 |
cmaloney | Be afraid. Be very afraid. | 14:09 |
brousch | What'd she kickstart? | 14:09 |
rick_h_ | lol | 14:10 |
cmaloney | The Ladies of Science thing she shared on G+ | 14:10 |
cmaloney | https://twitter.com/creativecommons/status/397432611015884801 | 18:42 |
greg-g | cmaloney: nice! | 18:43 |
cmaloney | Feel like an idiot that I didn't look at the FB post before responding. :) | 18:46 |
cmaloney | Ah well | 18:46 |
greg-g | yeah, was going to say ;) | 18:48 |
cmaloney | http://decafbad.net/2013/11/04/one-week-of-living-mostly-creative-commons-follow-along-at-home/ | 18:56 |
greg-g | jcastro: you in HK this week? | 19:10 |
jcastro | no unfortunately | 19:10 |
greg-g | Ryan Lane is | 19:11 |
greg-g | if you want to tell people to bum rush him | 19:11 |
jcastro | we have people there | 19:11 |
rick_h_ | yea, smoser is there I think | 19:11 |
rick_h_ | jcastro: so your bundle works with the deployer. I can't debug it in the gui atm. There's still an issue with the quickstart. So I'll file a card with the bundle and some info. It's definitely not you though since the deployer takes it. | 19:15 |
jcastro | ta | 19:15 |
jcastro | thanks for looking into it | 19:15 |
rick_h_ | well not just me fighting npm today yay https://twitter.com/search?q=npm | 19:17 |
jcastro | well, when you deploy dependent on a 3rd party ... it happens | 19:18 |
jcastro | the best is when github is down and people are like "I can' | 19:18 |
jcastro | t get any work done!" | 19:18 |
jcastro | it's like dude, _distributed_ version control | 19:18 |
greg-g | I laugh at those people | 19:18 |
rick_h_ | well, this is why amazon is brilliant. Check out their home page today http://www.amazon.com/ | 19:18 |
rick_h_ | jcastro: yea, though to be fair. When launchpad is down you can't land branches, look up issues, etc. | 19:19 |
greg-g | yeah, same here with gerrit | 19:19 |
rick_h_ | jcastro: so yes, you can commit and work on your current work, but if you fetch other branches, need to trigger CI with a pull request, etc you're fubar. Lot more than git commit out there | 19:19 |
jcastro | rick_h_, I am saying if your job depends on something you don't host that's a bad place to be | 19:19 |
rick_h_ | right, everyone has the central place | 19:19 |
jcastro | this is why our IS team is so picky with charms | 19:19 |
rick_h_ | meh | 19:20 |
greg-g | but at least I can phyiscally kick the person who should kick gerrit ;) | 19:20 |
rick_h_ | jcastro: you bought a laptop from someone :P | 19:20 |
jcastro | things needs to deploy from internal resources so when an external thing goes down we're not sitting around sword fighting | 19:20 |
greg-g | heh, nice | 19:20 |
cmaloney | sword fighting. | 19:20 |
greg-g | "compiling" joke | 19:20 |
jcastro | "compiling!" | 19:20 |
rick_h_ | now right, that's what annoys me. I've fought to try to get us to setup npm in full offline mode but "well just setup a cache" won out. | 19:20 |
jcastro | rick_h_, yeah but today is what you needed to win that fight! | 19:20 |
rick_h_ | though it took me two years to make bookie use a download-cache offline | 19:21 |
cmaloney | Yep, because caches are great when you haven't accessed a resource before | 19:21 |
cmaloney | Oh wait, that's backwards. | 19:21 |
rick_h_ | this is why I had 30GB of disk filled with a pypi miffor | 19:21 |
cmaloney | just like relying on caches. | 19:21 |
jcastro | it's trivial to update caches regularly | 19:21 |
jcastro | cron job, done | 19:21 |
cmaloney | jcastro: so is rsync. ;) | 19:22 |
jcastro | sure, whatever floats your boat | 19:22 |
rick_h_ | ooh, lastpass 3 is out and it's less fugly! | 19:51 |
PainBank | anyone around here doing some Qt develoment? or in the detroit area? | 20:15 |
cmaloney | I haven't touched Qt in a long time | 20:16 |
cmaloney | and even then it was mostly "hello world" | 20:16 |
jrwren | cmaloney: have a favorite Ravel performance recording? | 20:17 |
cmaloney | Not really. I can't get past another re-tread of "Bolero" | 20:17 |
cmaloney | Which is a pity because Ravel isn't bad. | 20:17 |
jrwren | i heard a great performance of a Ravel song at Umich Halloween Concert | 20:18 |
jrwren | i thought i'd pick up something | 20:18 |
cmaloney | There's two recordings that I have. One is "French Favourites" which has two tracks of Ravel (along with Milhaud and Debussy) but the second track is fucking Bolero | 20:19 |
cmaloney | But it's the DSO with Jaarvi, so it's awesome. :) | 20:19 |
cmaloney | The second recording is Ravel's "Daphnis Et Chloe" | 20:19 |
cmaloney | it's conducted by Charles Munch and the Boston Symphony Orchestra | 20:20 |
cmaloney | It's a Living Stereo Release and should be pretty easy to pick up locally at Barnes and Noble. | 20:20 |
cmaloney | The others that I have are a best-of that JoDee has that's "meh" | 20:20 |
jrwren | cool | 20:21 |
cmaloney | And Martha Agerich's Solo Piano which has some of his piano works. | 20:21 |
cmaloney | But generally speaking I don't go out of my way for Ravel. | 20:21 |
PainBank | cmaloney: thanks | 20:22 |
cmaloney | NP | 20:22 |
cmaloney | jrwren: I think there's a separate disc of Martha Agerich playing Ravel, but honestly I love all of her playing enough to recommend just getting the solo works 1 collection | 20:23 |
cmaloney | She's a rock star. | 20:23 |
cmaloney | http://www.amazon.com/Martha-Argerich-Collection-Solo-Recordings/dp/B001BWQVSG | 20:24 |
cmaloney | Allegedly Horowitz never recorded any Ravel. | 20:27 |
cmaloney | http://www.gramophone.co.uk/features/focus/vladimir-horowitz-remembered-%E2%80%93-on-his-birthday | 20:27 |
shakes808 | Hello cmaloney, it has been awhile. | 22:55 |
