nhaines | I remember running some alpha 3 or beta 1 of Ubuntu 10.04. Xorg and apt needed updating at the same time. I was like, "What could possibly go wrong?" | 01:37 |
---|---|---|
nhaines | (spoiler alert: nothing went wrong.) | 01:46 |
Roguehorse | Good to know! | 02:48 |
Roguehorse | I believe we who use Ubuntu or derivitives thereof are spoiled in that our stuff always works | 02:49 |
nhaines | Oh, things have broken before. Maybe twice in 10 years? :) | 02:49 |
Roguehorse | peanuts compared to other distros...I like having freedom to try and experiment - but at my liesure and not by necessity | 02:50 |
Roguehorse | sometimes I believe too much "manual labor" gives LInux a bad name to the GP | 02:52 |
nhaines | I forced the LUG members at the last installfest to not talk about the command line. :P | 02:54 |
Roguehorse | LOL! | 02:57 |
nhaines | Luckily, the president said he completely agreed and that he'd back me up to anyone who complained. :) | 02:57 |
Roguehorse | there has to be balance - much is only capable there while some is more efficient from GUI | 02:57 |
Roguehorse | which is your primary LUG? | 02:58 |
nhaines | OCLUG | 02:58 |
Roguehorse | ah, down south | 02:59 |
Roguehorse | Right now I'm just hoping my guest presenter shows up tomorrow night | 03:00 |
nhaines | What's the backup plan? :) | 03:00 |
Roguehorse | I have a presentation on ssh -D proxy | 03:01 |
Roguehorse | I'm also working on a blog on fdupes which I could probably make into a short presentation as well | 03:02 |
Roguehorse | I really should keep about 2 or 3 on hand at all times huh? | 03:04 |
Roguehorse | I'm still really new at this and learning as I go | 03:04 |
nhaines | Hehe, yeah, I have 3 or 4 presentations I can do at the drop of a hat. :) | 03:07 |
nhaines | That's okay. It comes with time and practice and experience. | 03:07 |
Roguehorse | So far I've gotten lucky and everyone who said they would present has followed through | 03:11 |
Roguehorse | although I don't want to take that luck for granted either : ) | 03:15 |
nhaines | Yeah, I've only had to fill in once or twice. | 03:17 |
nhaines | Of course, one time was at Ubucon, which was annoying. :P But I did open Q&A, which was so popular that two years after I handed the event over they're still doing it. :D | 03:17 |
* ianorlin should come to oclug but I don't want to go to one at 7pm on Thursday as traffic is bad before that time | 03:19 | |
nhaines | Every meeting is always at 10am on Saturdays? | 03:20 |
ianorlin | no for other lug | 03:20 |
nhaines | Oh. :) | 03:20 |
DonkeyHotei | SoCal has too many freeways to keep track of | 03:27 |
ianorlin | I know the 405 is evil | 04:30 |
nhaines | Also the 5. | 04:34 |
ianorlin | sort of unrelated but there is a Hrud peak in California | 04:35 |
ianorlin | *Hurd | 04:35 |
nhaines | I feel like maybe I should do those things I said on Sunday. | 05:53 |
Roguehorse | Good Morning | 13:29 |
