genii | BobJonkman1: Hehe "1) Announce you're doing it. 2) Do it." | 20:24 |
BobJonkman1 | I tried to get it down to one bullet point, but I was feeling particularly verbose | 20:24 |
Psil0Cybin | Woww! guys and ladies !! this is phenomenal!! | 20:25 |

BobJonkman1 | Hide your ID with strong crypto (TOR, OTR, GnuPG) | 20:29 |
BobJonkman1 | Psil0Cybin: Absolutely! | 20:29 |
BobJonkman1 | Speaking of strong crypto, TLUG has a keysigning party tomorrow: https://torontocrypto.org/TorontoCrypto:Current_events | 20:29 |
Psil0Cybin | Oh my god man!! how come I live in Toronto and NEVER knew about any of this..... | 20:30 |
Psil0Cybin | well I live a little bit north of downtown but still | 20:30 |
Psil0Cybin | sooo close :D | 20:30 |
Psil0Cybin | So sad man that I only discovered this today.....but still i am going to make the best of this. | 20:30 |
Psil0Cybin | wow Canada has alot of team members | 20:33 |
BobJonkman1 | StartupNorth has a pretty good calendar of tech events. But they miss some stuff... http://startupnorth.ca/calendar/ | 20:34 |
BobJonkman1 | And #TorontoCrypto is on IRC at irc://irc.oftc.net/#torontocrypto | 20:36 |
Psil0Cybin | book 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 |
Psil0Cybin | oh wow | 20:37 |
BobJonkman1 | Psil0Cybin: Don't be fooled by the Ubuntu-ca Web presence. There's only a few dozen really active members. | 20:37 |
Psil0Cybin | oh 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 |
Psil0Cybin | they love it. | 20:38 |
Psil0Cybin | we 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 work | 20:38 |
BobJonkman1 | 23! Isn't that too old to learn anything new? | 20:39 |
Psil0Cybin | well, I have a job, skewl, sigh, a dog.... a girlfriend it gets hectic. | 20:39 |
Psil0Cybin | but I love Linux, I am changing my school program. | 20:39 |
Psil0Cybin | I was at York University but I hate it there. | 20:39 |
BobJonkman1 | </tongue-in-cheek dialled to 11> | 20:39 |
BobJonkman1 | Come to Waterloo. The Ubuntu community here is fantastic | 20:40 |
Psil0Cybin | i want too! genii just showed me a cool program I printed out. I was looking at George Brown for computer networkin | 20:40 |
Psil0Cybin | or something simple to start off just because I am all over the place | 20:41 |
Psil0Cybin | its hard for me to move out to a new school. | 20:41 |
BobJonkman1 | Yep, change is tough | 20:41 |
genii | Psil0Cybin: I'm in Toronto as well | 20:41 |
Psil0Cybin | Unless I commute, but still...if I am a full time student isnt that impossible. | 20:41 |
BobJonkman1 | aruna is in Toronto too, but offline right now | 20:41 |
Psil0Cybin | Like I have a car, the drive is what 1 hr and a half? | 20:41 |
BobJonkman1 | Psil0Cybin: Yes, something like that. | 20:42 |
Psil0Cybin | hmmmmm sigh I would not mind, but the gas bill would murder me. | 20:42 |
BobJonkman1 | My son is at UofT, so I'm in Toronto occasionally to pickup/dropoff | 20:42 |
Psil0Cybin | I think I really need to sit down with someone take a look at my options and stop wasting time. | 20:42 |
Psil0Cybin | :) | 20:43 |
genii | Psil0Cybin: There is also the Linux Certified Professionls Institute | 20:43 |
Psil0Cybin | genii: I do not mind Toronto I just hate the blasted commutes, from one school to the next. | 20:43 |
Psil0Cybin | Actually? | 20:43 |
Psil0Cybin | can you give me more information on this? | 20:43 |
BobJonkman1 | genii: Isn't Evan Lebowitz involved with that? | 20:44 |
genii | BobJonkman1: Not sure | 20:44 |
BobJonkman1 | I think Jeff Smith @crankyoldbugger just completed his LPI certs | 20:44 |
genii | Psil0Cybin: http://www.lpi.org/ | 20:44 |
Psil0Cybin | Can I say one thing, This is so sad...I never had a proper guidance councillor explain to me, that there are so many options for someone that is interested in Linux. | 20:45 |
Psil0Cybin | and Open Source Development. | 20:45 |
Psil0Cybin | I was pushed into Health Informatics (Health and Data Management) which is neat, but I hate Health Politics. | 20:46 |
BobJonkman1 | Don't give up so easily. There's a contract development shop in Waterloo that works on OSCAR. | 20:47 |
