[15:58] <philipballew> I can send out a meeting reminder today if nobody else wants to or is busy with life things.
[16:51]  * ianorlin is making a bash script that can tell you what unmet dependencies a package has from an arbitray metapackage when you can use apt-cache depends and I think others might find this useful
[17:04] <MarkDude> +1 to both
[17:07] <akk> It does sound useful.
[17:12] <pleia2> my building was a bouncy castle last night
[17:15] <akk> Excitement!
[17:15] <akk> No damage, I hope, pleia2?
[17:16] <pleia2> akk: no, all is well, was just a little scary
[17:16]  * DonkeyHotei read that as "Excrement!"
[17:16] <pleia2> I think the biggest one prior to this I felt was a 4.2 or so
[17:16] <pleia2> this was a 6.0
[17:17] <akk> 6.0 is definitely enough to seem "real".
[17:17] <pleia2> yeah, 4s are like "big truck driving by" this was "whoa, our building is shaking"
[17:30] <pleia2> philipballew: I sent out announcements, and I should be around for the meeting but I have a guest in town and our dinner plans are indeterminate
[17:31] <philipballew> pleia2, alright. I should be at the meeting unless something major happens.
[17:31] <pleia2> great :)
[17:31] <philipballew> Hope your guest did not get scared from the earthquake :)
[17:32] <pleia2> she slept through it!
[17:32] <philipballew> perfect!
[17:33]  * philipballew 's family all live in Napa
[17:34] <akk> philipballew: Everybody okay?
[17:37] <akk> I'm kind of surprised at all the damage photos I'm seeing, from a 6.0.
[17:37] <philipballew> philipballew, its my 85 and 87 year old grandma and uncle and 90 year old aunt. All are alright, but most lost all their dishes and all have bookshelves that have fallen and one has lost access to a room because a cabinet fell off and is blocking the door. A few cracks on the house, but so far they have seen to damage to the foundation. I might need to go up there this week to help the clean up efforts. Though their power is out and
[17:37] <philipballew>  they have shut off all the gas lines.
[17:37] <philipballew> I guess maybe not all the old buildings were proofed I would guess.
[17:38] <Corey> philipballew: Probably worth having an insurance inspector give it a looking over.
[17:38] <philipballew> Corey, yeah, were probably gonna have to have one sent out for things.
[17:39] <philipballew> Thankfully they own the house outright now. My grandparents bought their house in 1948 for like $10,000
[17:40]  * MarkDude is assuming you have seen this. We need to do a signal boost , IMHO. Great stuff. Im working on my comments :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8Co37GO2Fc

[17:41]  * MarkDude is nudging pleia2 to comment on it. Working on it myself. Also need Robert Litt's email - if you could save me the hassle :D
[17:43] <pleia2> MarkDude: I blogged about it after I met Charlie at Fosscon a couple weeks ago
[17:43] <philipballew> Ted talks cost too much money to attend usually.
[17:43] <pleia2> we totally fangirl/boyed each other, it was fun :)
[17:44] <pleia2> "you are amazing" "no you!" "omg we rock!"
[17:44] <pleia2> :)
[17:44] <pleia2> we've been in contact for a while now given our similar interests
[17:45] <MarkDude> Phil Shapiro is trying to get the video "picked up" comments help. IMHO even more so from famous FOSSer like you (as well as Princess)
[17:45] <pleia2> http://www.linux.com/news/featured-blogs/200-libby-clark/761499-pennsylvania-high-school-rolls-out-1700-linux-laptops-to-students was a good one too

[17:47] <MarkDude> Good stuff
[17:47] <pleia2> yeah, I met Phil at Fosscon too :)
[18:12] <ianorlin> old buildings get damaged if made of bricks
[18:33]  * ianorlin also has something halfway working to the point of maybe first commit maybe but where should upload this six lines so it could be useful for others
[18:40] <MarkDude> True story on the bricks thing
[18:40]  * akk lives in a brick house now, but it was hard to get over my ingrained California-based prejudice against brick
[18:41] <akk> "Oh, right, no earthquakes here, brick is okay, I keep forgetting"
[19:13] <MarkDude> Friends had some small things break. Everyone ok. Big damage with others tho
[19:13]  * MarkDude has been going to Napa often. Friends just got a nice house there. 
[19:14] <MarkDude> akk, there are some reasons castles can survive for sooooo long - likely not in Cali. Same thing with rammed earth homes (mud)
[19:15] <MarkDude> Your signpost post was a good start to the day, btw :D
[19:15] <akk> :)
[19:16] <MarkDude> philipballew, consider yourself warned to prepare for Icebucket Challenge
[19:16] <philipballew> MarkDude, be warned. I am a party pooper.
[19:17] <akk> Saw someone on twitter wanting to volunteer some CEOs for the hydrochloric acid challenge
[19:17]  * MarkDude was asked about it- allowed to wit until returning home. Apparently, this is ok- as long as I wear The HotDog suit
[19:18] <philipballew> Both Bush and Obama did it and they are kinda like ceo's
[19:18] <philipballew> well Obama donated I think
[19:18]  * MarkDude *doubts* you will not do it. Also tying in Linux efforts for kids. Think about the kids. 
[19:19] <MarkDude> Not doing so would be like puppy kicking, IMHO. Or hassling kittens. Think about the kittens
[19:20]  * MarkDude thinks the *trick to it is this; use really warm water- maybe likewarm. Put icecubes in MOMENTS before filming
[19:22] <MarkDude> I believe the children are our are future
[19:22] <MarkDude> Teach them well and let them lead the way https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvPYXHM94DQ (unless you are party pooper Phil XD)

[19:25] <darthrobot`> Title: [ianorlin/dependsdiff · GitHub]
[19:27]  * MarkDude wonders if that will work in Fedora and the apt-get option. Even better would be Korora (kinda like a Mint version)
[19:30] <ianorlin> no but should be fairly easy enough to port with a yum command
[19:34]  * MarkDude kinda has a love/hate thing with yum. Despite my Fedoran "skills"
[19:34] <MarkDude> Well minus the love part XD
[19:36] <rww> we slept through it :)
