geniiBobJonkman1: Hehe "1) Announce you're doing it.  2) Do it."20:24

BobJonkman1Hide your ID with strong crypto (TOR, OTR, GnuPG)20:29
BobJonkman1Psil0Cybin: Absolutely!20:29
BobJonkman1Speaking of strong crypto, TLUG has a keysigning party tomorrow: https://torontocrypto.org/TorontoCrypto:Current_events20:29
Psil0CybinOh my god man!! how come I live in Toronto and NEVER knew about any of this.....20:30
Psil0Cybinwell I live a little bit north of downtown but still20:30
Psil0Cybinsooo close :D20:30
Psil0CybinSo sad man that I only discovered this today.....but still i am going to make the best of this.20:30
Psil0Cybinwow Canada has alot of team members20:33
BobJonkman1StartupNorth has a pretty good calendar of tech events. But they miss some stuff... http://startupnorth.ca/calendar/20:34
BobJonkman1And #TorontoCrypto is on IRC at irc://irc.oftc.net/#torontocrypto20:36
Psil0Cybinbook marked! Thanks for all the information no joke, this is really neat I know i keep being repetitive, but still like What an amazing community, and sooo close! oh man kk this was the last time I am going to shout my excitement to the roof tops.20:36
Psil0Cybinoh wow20:37
BobJonkman1Psil0Cybin: Don't be fooled by the Ubuntu-ca Web presence. There's only a few dozen really active members.20:37
Psil0Cybinoh actually but still, this is something I could slowly get my friends into....I recently converted all my friends over to Linux from windows 8 :D And I have been teaching them new things every day.20:38
Psil0Cybinthey love it.20:38
Psil0Cybinwe just wished we got into this at a younger age, we are all 23 now..but still not too old to start, I remember being in grade 7 trying to get Slackware on my machine and I gave up after I could never get the ndiswrapper to work20:38
BobJonkman123! Isn't that too old to learn anything new?20:39
Psil0Cybinwell, I have a job, skewl, sigh, a dog.... a girlfriend it gets hectic.20:39
Psil0Cybinbut I love Linux, I am changing my school program.20:39
Psil0CybinI was at York University but I hate it there.20:39

Psil0Cybinor something simple to start off just because I am all over the place20:41
Psil0Cybinits hard for me to move out to a new school.20:41
BobJonkman1Yep, change is tough20:41

Psil0CybinUnless I commute, but still...if I am a full time student isnt that impossible.20:41
BobJonkman1aruna is in Toronto too, but offline right now20:41
Psil0CybinLike I have a car, the drive is what 1 hr and a half?20:41
BobJonkman1Psil0Cybin: Yes, something like that.20:42
Psil0Cybinhmmmmm sigh I would not mind, but the gas bill would murder me.20:42
BobJonkman1My son is at UofT, so I'm in Toronto occasionally to pickup/dropoff20:42
Psil0CybinI think I really need to sit down with someone take a look at my options and stop wasting time.20:42
Psil0Cybin:)20:43
