| cjohnston | dholbach: UOS is going to be every 6 months now? | 15:52 |
| dholbach | cjohnston, that's how I understood the discussion at UOS | 15:52 |
| cjohnston | dholbach: I wasn't a part of it, so I'll trust that its accurate.. I just hadn't heard it yet | 15:53 |
| dholbach | oops, wrong button | 15:53 |
| cjohnston | oops | 15:54 |
| dholbach | right... that should probably get into an announcement once the dates are agreed on | 15:54 |
| cjohnston | dholbach: probably should request uos.ubuntu.com and do some work on uds.ubuntu.com to s/d/o | 15:54 |
| dholbach | yes, I think I sent an RT for that - or at least mentioned it in a discussion with the webteam | 15:55 |
| cjohnston | gotcha | 15:55 |
| dholbach | all rightie... I'll call it a day - see you all tomorrow! | 17:04 |
| philipballew | If I am buying laptop. Is a thinkpad usually always going to be a good bet, or am I better off with something else? | 19:15 |
| popey | depends | 19:21 |
| popey | generally yes, thinkpads are good for support, so are dell | 19:21 |
| philipballew | i have always had dells,but I see a lot of thinkpads, so I figure they are a safe bet. Also for support as breaking things is a hobby of mine... | 19:23 |
| philipballew | but I am not afraid of a dell again i guess. | 19:23 |
| popey | the downside of thinkpads is that many of the new models have insane keyboards | 19:26 |
| pleia2 | yeah, makes switching between a thinkpad and... anything else brain explode | 19:26 |
| pleia2 | my hp elitebooks are nice, have the 9470m for work and bought the 850 G1 personally (blah blah disclaimer, you know my employer) | 19:29 |
| popey | jcastro: tell philipballew how awesome the thinkpad keyboards are | 19:32 |
| philipballew | I currently use my dell because it has a pointing stick :) | 19:32 |
| pleia2 | jcastro: where is the tilde/backtick again? ;) | 19:32 |
| philipballew | or whatever slang people use for that term | 19:32 |
| pleia2 | so much rage | 19:32 |
| popey | yeah, thats what keeps me on thinkpads | 19:32 |
| pleia2 | pfft, me elitebooks have them | 19:33 |
| pleia2 | I don't really care for them though | 19:34 |
| philipballew | I am going to avoid a macbook though as that would make me a "hipster wannabee" | 19:35 |
| czajkowski | aloha | 19:35 |
| pleia2 | they're also very expensive for what you get | 19:35 |
| philipballew | unless you need to use osx | 19:36 |
| jcastro | squiggly keys | 19:36 |
| jcastro | I call them squiggly | 19:36 |
| jcastro | but yes, thinkpad keyboards are the immaculate input device | 19:37 |
| jcastro | well, some of them anyway | 19:37 |
| * philipballew currently uses a dell latitude. | 19:37 | |
| pleia2 | my favorite thing about the new thinkpads is they figured out the right way to put the logo on the top (not upside down) and the glowing red light | 19:38 |
| popey | finally! | 19:38 |
| popey | have they figured that the battery light needs to face you, and not the person opposite? | 19:38 |
| popey | never figured that out | 19:38 |
| jcastro | the new thinkpad kb and touchpads are some of the worst devices ever made | 19:39 |
| jcastro | they're pretty horrible | 19:39 |
| jcastro | though lenovo says they're getting rid of them | 19:39 |
| popey | oh!? | 19:39 |
| popey | going back to the "Thinkpad Classic" keyboard? | 19:39 |
| pleia2 | that's good | 19:39 |
| * philipballew might take his chances and get one | 19:40 | |
| philipballew | its been 8 years with Dell | 19:40 |
| philipballew | Cant people get used to any keyboard? | 19:41 |
| pleia2 | not me, I'm old and set in my ways | 19:42 |
| pleia2 | grump grump | 19:42 |
| philipballew | Get off my lawn! | 19:42 |
| mhall119 | popey: you have a battery indicator facing you | 19:43 |
| philipballew | yep, probably gonna try out the T series. | 19:43 |
| philipballew | Being a linux foundation member gives me a discount! | 19:47 |
| popey | mhall119: nope, the battery light only faces outwards | 19:47 |
| philipballew | nice | 19:47 |
| popey | no, the one in the gui on my ubuntu laptop doesn't count | 19:48 |
| popey | because if my display is off (power saved) it makes _no_ sense to wake it up (eating more battery) just to check the battery life | 19:48 |
| popey | http://socialsanta.co/user/ubuntu tsk tsk | 19:49 |
| popey | bet that was jono | 19:49 |
| mhall119 | popey: obviously that site doesn't know that 'systemd' is profanity | 19:50 |
| philipballew | popey, we can up that | 19:50 |
| jono | popey, :-) | 19:51 |
| mhall119 | http://socialsanta.co/user/mhall119 not sure if I'm nice, or just don't use twitter enough | 19:52 |
| popey | dont look at mine ⍨ | 19:53 |
| jono | it turns out I am 11% nice | 20:33 |
| jono | :-) | 20:33 |
| elfy | it turns out it's a good job I don't do any of that social stuff ... | 20:38 |
| elfy | evening jono et al | 20:38 |
| jono | howdy elfy :-) | 20:38 |
| skellat | Good afternoon jono | 20:43 |
| jono | hey skellat ! :-) | 20:43 |
