dzhoeven so00:00
dzhoalso, happy saturday UTC00:00
skellatIndeed00:00
skellatI threw it on the agenda for Tuesday's meeting00:00
* dzho nods00:00
skellatWe'll deal with the issue then00:00
skellatI hope00:00
dzhofwiw, there's a group, "Unshackle Upstate" that wants devolution in New York from NYC00:01
skellatThat is doable under the US Constitution provided the legislature in Albany agrees and Congress consents00:01
skellatLemme go find a citation00:01
dzhono need, but suit yourself00:02
dzhoin a more practical vein, the NYC area has never so far as I know been able to pull together a loco event or launch party00:02
dzhootoh NYC hosted a Debconf00:02
skellatArticle IV, Section 3, Clause 100:03
skellatNew States may be admitted by the Congress into this Union; but no new State shall be formed or erected within the Jurisdiction of any other State; nor any State be formed by the Junction of two or more States, or Parts of States, without the Consent of the Legislatures of the States concerned as well as of the Congress.00:03
dzhoI'm not holding my breath.00:04
skellatThe health of the NYS LoCo is not good at all00:04
dzhowell, from where you sit.  Which is, of course, part of the problem with the loco idea in general.00:04
skellatHere's the current roster of "Verified" LoCo teams (all 39 of them as of this hour): https://launchpad.net/~locoteams-verified/+members00:05

dzhowe threw a big pile of ubuntu disks away recently, they were clogging up the hackerspace.  people got tired of trying to use them and then discovering that they were unsupported versions.00:06
skellatAll that gets set is Ubuntu and Ubuntu Server, no flavors00:07
dzhowell, maybe now.00:07
dzhobut there's a legacy of old ubuntu crap sitting around all over the place.00:07
dzhothat goes only three ways, really:  old stuff gets replaced, old stuff sits around and makes people frustrated and ubuntu look bad, or old stuff gets replaced.00:08
dzhoer, the last one should be, old stuff gets thrown out and ubuntu disappears from view.00:08
dzhoif ubuntu wants to send us marketing material, then that's ok.  But I'm not going to get all hot and bothered about jumping through hoops so I can have the privilege of receiving and distributing someone elses marketing material.00:10
* skellat snickers00:11
dzhoubuntu's days as a bandwagon fad that's popular to jump on is over.00:11
dzhonice.00:11
skellatHere are the hoops: Make sure your online presence is set up, make sure you have somebody who is leader, make sure you are set up on Launchpad00:12
skellatAnd that is it00:12
skellatThose are the only hoops00:12
dzhowell, ask yourself why the third most populous state in tha nation has absolutely no one who is interested in doing even that.00:12
skellatNYS is 3rd now?00:13
dzhowhatever, 20 million people is the point.00:13
skellatThat part I do know00:13
dzhowe have one person, who is still on CC I think.00:14
skellatThey have their online presence and are set up on Launchpad00:14
dzhofriend of mine, actually.00:14
skellatYeah, cproffit00:14
dzhofunny thing is, NYS isn't on your list.00:14
skellatWhich one?00:14
dzhothat last URL you sent00:14
dzhounless Ctrl-F is failing me00:14
skellat Expired on 2013-07-2000:15
dzhoyes, well.00:15
skellatThere was a decision they did not wish to continue with a Verified status at that time00:16
dzhoheck, metro NYC is more populous than ohio I bet, if you take the 5 boroughs proper and add a bit of the surrounding areas.00:16
dzhobigger than, say, all of Scotland, certainly, bigger than a lot of countries.00:17
skellatOH 11.5 mil00:17
dzhoso, why is it the only people who can be bothered in all of the state hail from the same mid-sized city far from the center of population?00:17
dzhoyeah, NYC alone is 800:17
dzhothrow in a bit of surrounding counties and you hit 11 pretty quickly I bet00:18
dzhosome of that is in NJ of course but even in just NYS it wouldn't be hard.00:18
skellatThis will be taken under advisement00:21
dzhohttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states_and_territories_by_population00:21

skellatOne step ahead of you there :-)00:21
* dzho snickers00:21
skellatI prefer to use Census datasets directly but Wikipedia just formats it so nicely...00:22
PCLine_Evening everyone.00:22
skellatGood evening00:22
skellatFor example, this doesn't look pretty or easy to use at all: http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/39000.html00:22
jenni[ Ohio QuickFacts from the US Census Bureau ] - https://j.mp/105hNdP00:22
skellatLet alone this: http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/39/39007.html00:23
jenni[ Ashtabula County QuickFacts from the US Census Bureau ] - https://j.mp/105hSOw00:23

dzhoso, it occurs to me that R2D2 is like this massively-exceptional codebreaker00:28
skellatYes, it is00:29
skellatFOX8 news on the morning show in Cleveland had some kit builders racing some mock-ups around the studio earlier this week00:30
dzhowat00:30
skellatNever saw a forest green R2D2 before00:30
skellatCrap00:30
skellatNothing on their website00:30
skellatYeah, morning show on WJW-FOX8 they had a bunch of kit builders on who were making replicas of R2D2 at $2k apiece00:31
skellat3 units in studio and the air talent got to try RC racing the R2D2 replicas in the open area00:31
skellatR2 doesn't handle too well and is a cone-killer00:32
skellatOne of 'em couldn't stay in its lane00:32
skellatFOUND IT!00:33
skellathttp://fox8.com/2014/10/13/r2-d2s-take-over-fox-8-news/00:33
jenni[ R2-D2s take over Fox 8 News! | fox8.com ] - https://j.mp/105j0BU00:33
dzhoyeah, ok, but did they break the trucrypt on anyone's HD?00:36
dzhopwn some LUKS00:37
skellatI was assuming that was next decade's upgrade00:38
skellatAlong with the rockets to make R2 fly00:38
dzhowell, he's always breaking into stuff, physically (doors and so on) and into central computers (telling him the Falcon's hyperdrive was disabled, getting control of Death Star systems)00:40
skellatWell, since we saw the jump jets in that one prequel movie...and then never again...I'd assume that the stuff that controlled those was put to codebreaking00:47
skellatBesides, anything the novels said such as those written by Timothy Zahn got thrown out the airlock by Disney in light of the upcoming films as to canonicity00:48
dzhoyeah, I'm not too fussed about "canon"00:49
jrgiffordpaultag: if I'm reading your latest github repo correctly, you are using ansible to manage docker?21:58
