| netritious | wrst: I haven't done anything with that website in a loooong time. | 11:12 |
|---|---|---|
| netritious | Svpernova09 hosts the site now. | 11:13 |
| netritious | jshanks24: meetings died because no one cared to schedule them. When they were scheduled no one showed up. On the rare occasion someone did show up, it was rife with politics. I made a pretty big fuss about it but nothing has changed. There is a blog post on the site about it. | 11:19 |
| wrst | howdy netritious :) | 11:20 |
| netritious | howdy wrst :) cold out your way? | 11:20 |
| netritious | jshanks24: http://www.ubuntu-tennessee.org/2012/announcements/leadership-elections/ | 11:20 |
| wrst | not as cold as predicted, its 10 | 11:23 |
| wrst | how about you? | 11:23 |
| netritious | ew whee that's cold! | 11:23 |
| netritious | yeah, freezing here | 11:23 |
| wrst | I think tonight supposed to drop below 0 again | 11:23 |
| wrst | we had about 3-5" of snow | 11:24 |
| wrst | or I should say 3-5" of "flurries" | 11:24 |
| netritious | egad, not as cold here.... 31 | 11:25 |
| netritious | with wind chill later today temps are supposed to drop :/ | 11:25 |
| wrst | but on the loco stuff I hate to say it in here I'm not for sure its hardly worth the effort, I think ubuntu is becoming much less community oriented anyway | 11:26 |
| netritious | for me it was less about ubuntu and more about community | 11:26 |
| Unit193 | Temp: 7 F (-14 C) ~ light snow ~ Windchill: -9 F (-23 C) ~ Humidity: 84% | 11:26 |
| Unit193 | :D | 11:26 |
| netritious | wow Unit193, guess I'm living like it's Florida :) | 11:27 |
| Unit193 | wrst: I still maintain the Xubuntu community is good! | 11:27 |
| Unit193 | (And by extension, what little Ubuntustuio community there is) | 11:27 |
| wrst | Unit193: that's all well and good but Ubuntu proper is garbage as far as their concern for community | 11:27 |
| netritious | wrst: rarely do I recall anyone talking about ubuntu at a local meetup. | 11:28 |
| Unit193 | wrst: Depends, factions are good, factions are bad. | 11:28 |
| netritious | *I recall ubuntu only being mentioned in passing, not as the focus of the meetup | 11:28 |
| wrst | Unit193: I have a CLA you can sign! | 11:28 |
| Unit193 | NTY. :D | 11:28 |
| wrst | Unit193: that kills community at a much higher level and makes locos useless | 11:29 |
| wrst | that being said this is a good group of people :) | 11:29 |
| wrst | netritious: what was the purpose then? :) | 11:29 |
| netritious | mostly wrst, except that guy Unit193...idk what his deal is | 11:30 |
| netritious | :D | 11:30 |
| wrst | ha ha | 11:30 |
| netritious | wrst: the purpose of the meetups? to commune with each other? | 11:30 |
| wrst | but really the hoops required just to become Ubuntu blessed loco were nuts especially for a group like this with so much geogrophy to cover | 11:31 |
| wrst | they were obviously thinking of urban areas and not of locations like ours | 11:31 |
| wrst | netritious: so you communed but just not about ubuntu :) | 11:31 |
| Svpernova09 | There is a login for the host if someone needs access :D | 12:51 |
| Svpernova09 | I log in and make sure it's updated when i do the rounds with the rest of my WP sites | 12:51 |
| netritious | wrst: well yes and no...ubuntu was talked about, but wasn't really the focus of discussion, at least not what I can recall. | 13:09 |
| netritious | hey Svpernova09 | 13:10 |
| netritious | anyone use pfsense? | 15:56 |
| netritious | besides me | 15:56 |
| wrst | netritious: I have thought about using pfsense :) | 17:31 |
| wrst | so that doesn't really qualify ;) | 17:31 |

| jshanks24 | What are the benefits of being an "Ubuntu Community" official or not vs setting up an independent community that follows its own rules? | 20:23 |
| jshanks24 | Just thinking outside the box here | 20:23 |
| Juzzy | b/c ubuntu has clout | 21:46 |
| Juzzy | and random other community does not | 21:46 |
| wrst | jshanks24: in reality we dont get presed cds or a banner thing for tech show type things | 23:11 |
| Unit193 | Stash. | 23:11 |
| wrst | i think in community terms ubuntu is getting less relavent as far as true community goes, but it is no doubt the big dog still | 23:12 |
| wrst | Unit193: exactly | 23:12 |
| wrst | and i am admittedly a little not on team ubuntu exactly like i was at one time | 23:14 |
| Unit193 | ^ is just cranky. | 23:14 |
| wrst | i do hope they do well but... | 23:14 |
| wrst | Unit193: yes | 23:14 |
| wrst | i think i may grow a neckbeard and start moaning on mailing list about mundane things no one cares about :) | 23:15 |
| netritious | ha | 23:15 |
| netritious | i thought everyone did that wrst | 23:16 |
| Unit193 | No, I'm hip and new, I output to IRC (just not here, dangit, ubuntulog_.) | 23:17 |
| wrst | ha ha netritious | 23:18 |
