[00:15] greg-g: only 12 days a year? is that separate from vaca? [00:17] jrwren: yeah [00:18] vacation starts at 12/year, goes up to 20/year (at 4 years). [00:19] (by default, everything is negotiable) [00:19] so Holiday+Vacation= between 24 and 32 [02:04] Evening [08:16] morning [12:50] Morning [13:00] <_stink_> yo [14:22] wheeee [14:28] rick_h_: We do not need your potty reports [14:29] brousch: but it so makes your day :) [14:29] http://techcrunch.com/2015/01/20/ubuntu-of-things/ kind of cool, didn't know about the robotics company [14:30] Nice [14:38] I was just reading https://insights.ubuntu.com/2015/01/20/ubuntu-core-on-internet-things/ [14:42] rick_h_, tons of snow down here today [14:42] jcastro: oh yea? /me hopes the wife hit the snow blower well [14:42] * rick_h_ checks snow counts for house [14:43] I think we're getting an inch at best [14:48] heh, wunderground is telling me accumulation for the house is abour 2-3cm so guess about an inch is right :) [14:49] I think it's because jcastro is closer to the water [14:50] am I? [14:50] jcastro: yeah, closer to Lake MIchigan [15:58] cmaloney: I got a dusting [15:58] Maybe 1cm [16:04] Haven't looked outside in a bit [16:52] thanks for the Ubuntu Core links, folks [16:59] dzho: Do you work on that? [16:59] no [16:59] just might not have heard about it as soon [16:59] the sort of thing the local LUG and hackerspace might enjoy seeing [17:01] brousch: with the info deluge of today, I think groups like this and others, of similar-but-not-identical interest, can help each other by sort of curating this news for each other. [18:44] We got about an inch on the other side of the river. [20:31] party time [20:31] europe needs to get crown royal here [20:32] WTF. I thought you would be swimming in fine wine [20:33] did that ast dinner [20:33] loively [20:33] lovely 2010 cab [20:34] Dude, you're in the land of Irish Whiskey and Scotch [20:34] Crown Royal is a North American thing [20:35] See if you can get some Jamesons [20:35] jack and coke as a fallback [20:35] You're going to pay a mint for Jack and Coke. ;) [20:35] unless Jack is more prevalent over there. [20:56] wait, you're in the UK and ordering Jack? [20:56] you want to never come home? [21:02] yea it vas 16 pounds for two of them [21:02] what am i supposed to order? [21:04] <_stink_> i'm sure he's already identifiable as an American [21:04] <_stink_> why not play the part [21:04] Heh [21:06] What with his lasso and hawaiian shirts [21:08] Well the fact that you're mixing whiskey and coke is a dead giveaway. :) [21:10] Hm, I can't seem to import the ubuntu-core OVA on windows [21:10] strange [21:10] You probably want to go with a blended Scotch [21:10] From what I'm reading that tends toward the sweet end of the spectrum [21:10] 8 pounds per drink?! that's like $100! [21:10] (ish) [21:10] Which is where Crown ROyal / Bourbon is [21:10] <_stink_> haha [21:11] Though it won't be nearly as sweet [21:13] Fucking hell, Crown ROyal is owned by a London company [21:13] Diageo [21:13] They bought the assets of Seagrams when they folded [21:13] see also: Budweiser [21:14] We'll not be going there [21:14] not that company, the dutch one [21:14] Let's just say if they have Johnny Walker and Guinness but no Crown Royal they're full of shit. :) [21:14] or they just don't like those purple bags. [21:15] I now know more about scotch and bourbon than I did before. :)
