[03:34] <canthus13> Ok. Got my new laptop. For 1300 bucks, this thing sure feels flimsy. and the touchpad is... weird.
[03:35] <canthus13> Also.. using unity is almost painful.  I can't wait to get awesome installed and tweaked.
[03:38] <Unit193> Ouch, that's a bummer. :/
[03:38] <andygraybeal> *reading about awesome now
[03:38] <Unit193> Has the quality of sys7* dropped that much, or just general.
[03:38] <Unit193> awesomewm.
[03:38] <Unit193> canthus13: ...Did I already ask you about i3?
[03:39] <andygraybeal> what do you guys think about this open source .NET from microsoft?
[03:41] <Unit193> Not a fan of .NET or Mono, but otherwise I'd say that it's a plus.
[03:42] <andygraybeal> :)
[03:44] <Unit193> Most recent thing used it on, PandoraCaster. :P
[03:45] <andygraybeal> is that a joke?
[03:46] <andygraybeal> you guys were joking that everyone is just making implementations of whatever web-based music apps are popular earlier .. right?
[03:47]  * Unit193 scratches head.
[03:48] <andygraybeal> okay sorry, i'm confused then
[03:49] <canthus13> Unit193: I don't think so.

[20:17] <skellat> So, who has the most snowfall?  It is pretty dark outside here in Ashtabula and I've gotten multiple SMS warnings from LakeTran that they've sent the Commuter Express buses down to Downtown Cleveland early and are trying to get every "Dial A Ride" unit possible off the roads of Lake County tonight.
[20:17] <belkinsa> No snow here
[20:20] <belkinsa> skellat, did you see the question that I asked you this morning?
[20:22] <skellat> belkinsa: I missed it
[20:22] <skellat> What was it?
[20:23] <belkinsa> It was about Xubuntu and how things are done.  Why no UOS and why is it differnt?
[20:28] <skellat> Hmm
[20:28] <skellat> Well, that has some history
[20:28] <skellat> The 3 Nights of Xubuntu were a test
[20:29] <skellat> Mostly the time of UOS falling wasn't good for anybody
[20:29] <skellat> (Noskcaj is located in Australia)
[20:30] <skellat> We've tried meeting at the same time but outside the UOS hours
[20:30] <skellat> We've tried meeting during
[20:30] <skellat> And it really doesn't fit our workflow
[20:30] <belkinsa> I see.
[20:30] <skellat> Our leadership team also has folks mostly in specific portfolio jobs
[20:31] <skellat> Xubuntu Project Leader, Xubuntu Technical Leader, Xubuntu Debian Liaison, etc.
[20:31] <belkinsa> I see
[20:32] <skellat> The folks in the various portfolio groups work on their matters which filter up to our Xubuntu meetings where things get disposed of
[20:32] <skellat> I don't really have a specific portfolio that I am assigned to though I work in Documentation and other matters that catch my interest from time to time
[20:32] <skellat> Somehow we make it work
[20:33] <belkinsa> And that's a good thing
[20:33] <skellat> The only folks outside Xubuntu who build off what we do are Ubuntu Studio
[20:33] <skellat> And we stay in pretty good contact there
[20:33]  * skellat just had to enter "killall firefox" yet again
[20:34] <skellat> The list of the Xubuntu cabinet is here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Leaders

[20:37] <skellat> Xubuntu meets pretty constantly on IRC so having a special meeting for UOS just doesn't make sense
[20:38] <skellat> Though I did miss this morning's meeting at 7 AM
[20:40] <skellat> And the meeting logs archive is here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Meetings/Archive
[22:31] <canthus13> Hmm. Aside from feeling flimsy and having less-than-stellar support and horribly slow service, this laptop isn't too bad.
