[03:26] <Unit193> Everybody ready to party? :P
[04:01] <jrgifford> party for... what?
[04:02] <Unit193> Well, it was supposed to be a severe thunderstorm.
[04:22] <jrgifford> oh right.
[05:01] <Unit193> jrgifford: Oh heeey, got a sec?
[12:49] <belkinsa> I will write a update on our LoCo today on my blog since it seems that we will be power for god who knows.
[12:51] <belkinsa> And I just noticed that our LP page (https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-us-ohio) doesn't say anything about new members having their Code of Conduct signed.
[15:48] <belkinsa> Darkwing, ping.
[16:09] <thafreak> ninja
[16:10] <belkinsa> Everyone is a ninja here in this channel.  ;)
[16:10] <thafreak> exactly
[16:11] <thafreak> anyone in here hack on raspberry pi's?
[16:12] <thafreak> i'm wondering if I can use an old floppy disk ribbon cable to breakout the pins
[16:12] <dzho> I wouldn't dignify what I've done with a pi "hacking" quite
[16:12] <thafreak> but i think the pi's like 26 pins (i didn't count them though) and a floppy was like 34 or something
[16:12] <belkinsa> thafreak, you could ask the mailing-list of the team or maybe find the channel that you need?
[16:13] <dzho> belkinsa++
[16:13] <thafreak> meh, i don't need an answer THAT bad
[16:13] <dzho> I keep meaning to blog my one possibly useful pi trick
[16:13] <belkinsa> Ah.
[16:13] <thafreak> i mean at worse i go grab a floppy cable from my storage room and try it out :)
[16:14] <dzho> imagine that
[16:14] <thafreak> i just bought these jumper wires to go to a breadboard, but i didn't notice they were male on both ends
[16:14] <thafreak> and the rpi's pins are male
[16:15] <thafreak> i'll probably order a ribbon cable from somewhere honestly, I'm pretty sure some one makes one to connect to a breadboard
[16:15] <thafreak> I'm new to this kind of stuff...
[16:16] <thafreak> i've only ever used my raspberry pi's so far as little servers
[16:17] <thafreak> Anyway, so, I'm trying something new
[16:17] <thafreak> dzho: you may be interested
[16:17] <thafreak> i'm getting out of academia...at least as far as teaching goes
[16:18] <thafreak> I'm starting something where I work closely with a small group of students instead
[16:18] <thafreak> Currently working on finding the right group of students to start out with
[16:19] <thafreak> Plus i need to come up with a way to incentivize students to join me...
[16:19] <thafreak> right now all I have is, you will learn cool useful stuff and I will vouch for your skills to recruiters
[16:21] <thafreak> It'll be like a cross between college course, an internship, and an apprenticeship [sic]
[16:59] <dzho> thafreak: ah, yes, very interested
