| pleia2 | hm, I will probably be on a plane during our next meeting | 01:20 |
|---|---|---|
| MissValeska | Meeting? | 01:21 |
| pleia2 | we have monthly meetings :) | 01:21 |
| MissValeska | Oooohh | 01:21 |
| pleia2 | they're listed in the topic: Next Meeting: Tuesday April 8th at 18:00 UTC | 01:21 |
| pleia2 | http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/Meetings | 01:21 |
| MissValeska | About what specifically? Like, What do you say? Do you meet physically? I've never seen this stuff before | 01:22 |
| pleia2 | we just chat here in meetings | 01:22 |
| MissValeska | hm | 01:22 |
| pleia2 | that wiki page has links to some of our past meetings if you're curious | 01:22 |
| MissValeska | okay! :D | 01:22 |
| pleia2 | :) | 01:22 |
| MissValeska | But um! | 01:22 |
| MissValeska | You *could* just get on a plane with wifi | 01:22 |
| MissValeska | And boom, IRC time. | 01:22 |
| pleia2 | unfortunately the flight I'm on doesn't have wifi | 01:22 |
| MissValeska | Use your phone! | 01:23 |
| belkinsa | I hate to say this but it's safer that way... | 01:23 |
| pleia2 | cell phones don't work in planes :) | 01:23 |
| MissValeska | whyyyy | 01:23 |
| belkinsa | Because they interfer with the planes computers. | 01:23 |
| belkinsa | And we don't want another mess like what what we had a month ago. | 01:24 |
| MissValeska | That has actually been disproven | 01:24 |
| MissValeska | Several several times | 01:24 |
| MissValeska | And actually never had any evidence to begin with | 01:24 |
| MissValeska | Even the government agreed that it isn't true | 01:24 |
| MissValeska | It's no longer a legal thing | 01:24 |
| MissValeska | It's optional for planes to ask you to turn off your phone or what ever | 01:24 |
| belkinsa | Whatever. I still think it can cause a mess. | 01:24 |
| MissValeska | Even the myth busters did it | 01:24 |
| MissValeska | hey, No need to be snippy :( | 01:25 |
| belkinsa | I'm not. | 01:25 |
| MissValeska | okay | 01:25 |
| IdleOne | the reason is more about security | 01:25 |
| belkinsa | Anyways this channel is logged and we have a non-logged channel. | 01:25 |
| MissValeska | Logs are fine | 01:25 |
| belkinsa | (FYI) | 01:25 |
| pleia2 | MissValeska: cell phones work by talking to cell towers, planes fly too fast and are too far away from towers to get and maintain signal | 01:25 |
| MissValeska | I like logs | 01:25 |
| IdleOne | they don't want you calling your hidden cell phone in the baggage hold | 01:25 |
| pleia2 | services like gogo inflight internet use special towers they built across the US | 01:26 |
| pleia2 | not regular cellphone towers | 01:26 |
| MissValeska | I know some planes now are getting their own radios built into them that can re-direct cell phones to their respective towers. | 01:26 |
| pleia2 | Career Days with czajkowski over in #ubuntu-classroom and #ubuntu-classroom-chat in 35 minutes :) | 15:25 |
