nhainesI 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
RoguehorseGood to know!02:48
RoguehorseI believe we who use Ubuntu or derivitives thereof are spoiled in that our stuff always works02:49
nhainesOh, things have broken before.  Maybe twice in 10 years? :)02:49
Roguehorsepeanuts compared to other distros...I like having freedom to try and experiment - but at my liesure and not by necessity02:50
Roguehorsesometimes I believe too much "manual labor" gives LInux a bad name to the GP02:52
nhainesI forced the LUG members at the last installfest to not talk about the command line.  :P02:54
RoguehorseLOL!02:57
nhainesLuckily, the president said he completely agreed and that he'd back me up to anyone who complained.  :)02:57
Roguehorsethere has to be balance - much is only capable there while some is more efficient from GUI02:57
Roguehorsewhich is your primary LUG?02:58
nhainesOCLUG02:58
Roguehorseah, down south02:59
RoguehorseRight now I'm just hoping my guest presenter shows up tomorrow night03:00
nhainesWhat's the backup plan?  :)03:00
RoguehorseI have a presentation on ssh -D proxy03:01
RoguehorseI'm also working on a blog on fdupes which I could probably make into a short presentation as well03:02
RoguehorseI really should keep about 2 or 3 on hand at all times huh?03:04
RoguehorseI'm still really new at this and learning as I go03:04
nhainesHehe, yeah, I have 3 or 4 presentations I can do at the drop of a hat.  :)03:07
nhainesThat's okay.  It comes with time and practice and experience.03:07
RoguehorseSo far I've gotten lucky and everyone who said they would present has followed through03:11
Roguehorsealthough I don't want to take that luck for granted either : )03:15
nhainesYeah, I've only had to fill in once or twice.03:17
nhainesOf 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.  :D03:17
* ianorlin should come to oclug but I don't want to go to one at 7pm on Thursday as traffic is bad before that time03:19
nhainesEvery meeting is always at 10am on Saturdays?03:20

nhainesOh.  :)03:20
