_stink_https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZjAantupsA13:43
rick_h_morning13:53
rick_h_back to the grind13:53
brousch__Do you also roast it yourself?13:58
cmaloneyHeh14:28
rick_h_no, I buy pre-roasted shipped every 2weeks :)14:29
jrwrenfrom where?14:36
cmaloneyDunkin Drone-uts14:37
rick_h_jrwren: petes14:38
rick_h_peets14:38
rick_h_a bag lasts just about 2wk so get a new bag every 2. Almost to the day so it's usually 1wk old or less when I get it14:39
brousch__Hm, they have decaf and half-caf14:39
brousch__oooh, decaf sumatra14:40
jrwrenmmm... decaf, so that I can drink it all day long.14:40
brousch__And not get Angina!14:40
rick_h_I like the CAFE DOMINGO and get that14:41
brousch__I'll give this a try. I'm getting tired of Biggby French Roast decaf14:42
rick_h_I <3 it14:48
rick_h_the only issue is when I go to sprints for a week I don't use my bad and I end up with extra I try to pawn off on cmaloney and others14:48
cmaloneyheh15:00
rick_h_man, wtf I need to get more bookie time15:08
rick_h_people offering to i18n it, patch this, do that15:08
rick_h_soon I'll have to figure out how to be a 'community manager' :P15:09
cmaloneyYeah, it's crazy15:09
cmaloneyI think they're looking for GSoC 2015. ;)15:09
rick_h_yea, and we thought they were early last year15:10
rick_h_ugh15:10
cmaloneyWe didn't exist last year. ;)15:10
rick_h_we'll have to recruit brousch__ this year15:10
rick_h_get him off that django kivy stuff into a real community project :P15:10
cmaloneyas far as they're concerned.15:10
cmaloneyNow we have a track record. ;)15:10
cmaloney(last year around January)15:10
cmaloneyYeah, drag him off of kivy15:11
cmaloneythey're going nowhere anyway.15:11
cmaloneyAndroid is a fad15:11
cmaloney;)15:11
brousch__I actually don't do much web stuff any more15:13
rick_h_we can fix that15:13
cmaloneyheh15:13
rick_h_and besides, bookie isn't all web15:13
rick_h_someone wants to do a desktop client now15:13
rick_h_and then there's the android app15:14
rick_h_the back end, the front end, the side end, the no end15:14
cmaloneyCan we have the website op up with a nag for downloading the app15:14
* cmaloney makes a feature request15:14
jrwrenbookie safari sync would be sweet.15:14
jrwrenI should do that :p15:14
cmaloneyIt won't be complete until it reads newsgroups15:15
brousch__I've considered a bookie app in kivy. The stickiest part is kivy's lack of a web view15:16
cmaloneyDoesn't need a web view15:16
brousch__Sending out to the external browser for stuff is lame15:17
brousch__I use a reddit app with a webview. It's really nice15:18
cmaloneyThat's kind of the point of Bookie though15:20
cmaloneyYou use it as a gateway to other things15:20
cmaloneynot as the end itself.15:20
brousch__But bookie + webview of breadable version is what I would want15:21
cmaloneyAh, right15:24
cmaloneySo you need to figure out how to get kivy to do a decent web view then15:25
cmaloneyeasy peasy.15:25
brousch__There are platform-specific attempts like embedding chromium, but they are clunky15:26
brousch__Actually phonegap might be a good base for a bookie app15:28
rick_h_yea, the lack of the readable view on the android app has been a sticking point myself15:35
rick_h_I wanted to pay someone to add it15:35
rick_h_that plus some general ui cleanup and I'd use it a lot more15:36
jrwrenbrousch__: can't you use UIWebView? :)15:36
brousch__I'm not familiar with Apple, but in general native views are painful to use15:37
jcastrorick_h_, man this new X1 dude16:50
cmaloneyjcastro: Didnt' you hear? Thinkpad is dead.16:52
jcastrothey were for me16:52
jcastronow let's hope they do the same for the X series16:52
brousch__Let's hope they kill it?16:53
jrwrendid you see that phoronix compare of OSX to Ubuntu on MacBook Air, and Ubuntu was faster on every test, sometimes significantly so.16:53
jcastrothe X240 deserves to be killed16:53
cmaloneyhttp://shop.lenovo.com/us/en/ces2015/#index.html?0=616:54
cmaloneyHey look, it's the Atari SIO bus all over again16:54
jcastrohah yeah16:54
cmaloneyThere's a curious lack of keyboard shots16:55
jcastrohttp://www.theverge.com/2015/1/4/7491479/lenovo-thinkpad-x1-carbon-laptop-announced-ces-201516:55
jcastrokb looks like they just reverted it to the older one16:55
jcastro(which is what I wanted)16:55
cmaloneyNow I'm interested.16:56
jcastrowell yeah that's the big news16:56
jcastronormal thinkpads are back16:56
cmaloneyNice: PrintSC next to alt and caps16:56
cmaloneywhat. the. fuck16:56
jcastrothat's always been there iirc?16:57
cmaloneyNot on my laptop16:58
cmaloneySeriously, it's bad enough that I accidentally hit "menu". Print-screen is even worse. :)16:58
cmaloneyIt's like taking a record that i'm a dumbass.16:58
jcastroyou could unbind the key?16:59
jcastroor bind it to something else?17:00
cmaloneyYeah, i could17:00
jcastroanother alt or something17:00
cmaloneyJust seems every laptop has different ideas of where to put the keys17:00
cmaloneynone of which are optimal17:00
cmaloneyBut seeing a return to form is a nice touch17:01
jcastroI know someone with the touchpad Fkeys version17:02
jcastroand it was so horrible17:02
cmaloneyOh you don't have to convince me17:04
cmaloneyJust looking at it made me angry17:04
cmaloneyIt's like I wanted to head over to China and shove the designer's nose in it in the hopes they'd never dump that load of shit on the floor again.17:05
brousch__So much anger17:07
cmaloneyhttp://www.theverge.com/2015/1/5/7492891/wrestlemania-pinball-machine-stern-linux17:57
cmaloneyDon't care for the license but the tech impresses me17:58
* DrDaemonEye peers in18:42
cmaloneypeerless18:43
DrDaemonEyeOf course not!18:43
DrDaemonEyeYou doing okay with the snow cmaloney?18:43
brousch__Too damn cold out18:44
DrDaemonEyebrousch__: agreed.  I wonder who stuck our part of the world into the freezer...18:46
rick_h_jcastro: yep hiting refresh over and over to go back to TP19:44
cmaloneySays "Coming Soon"19:46
cmaloneynot sure that's releasing today is it?19:46
* cmaloney is listening to My Woshin Mashin - Killing In The Name (Rage Against The Machine Cover)20:00
brousch__cmaloney: I made a Go Calculator in Kivy, to help determine the current score of a game https://github.com/brousch/gocalc  http://feralrooster.com:8000/GoCalculator-0.0.2-debug.apk20:15
cmaloneybrousch__: Nice!20:18
brousch__Hm, I haven't looked at persistence on Android yet20:18
cmaloneyI'm really gettng irritated by Hangouts on my phone20:21
cmaloneySeems to get into this weird state where everything just starts not working20:22
cmaloneytext area: gone20:22
cmaloneyAnd the only solution seems to be resetting the phone20:22
brousch__I have not experienced that20:23
cmaloneyAnd since this worthless piece of whale-snot decided to converge with my SMS it eats my SMS messages as well20:23
rick_h_cmaloney: no, the rumor is the new thinkpads will be out 'this month'23:54
