cmaloneyeg: Bug Traige, "Ask Ubuntu", documentation02:12
cmaloneyWhatever floats your boat.02:12

cmaloneyIt's a great way to get involved with the community.02:12
cmaloneyIt'll be on IRC, and we might do a hangout02:12
cmaloneyif someone wants to plan out an in-person meeting that would be great too02:12
cmaloneyUNfortuantely I'm not able to plan something out in this short amount of time02:13
cmaloneyso we'll at the very least meet online02:13
gamerchick02i think that's a good idea.02:13
cmaloneyIf you're participating feel free to say "I'm Jamming" and let us know02:13
cmaloneyor join the hangout02:13
cmaloneyNot sure if the hangout will be up all weekend but that's available if you want02:14

cmaloneyAssuming they'll have us we'll be partying at Penguicon02:18
gamerchick02oooh. and that's in April, correct?02:18
cmaloneyWhich is April 26th-28th.02:18
gamerchick02seems like it never lines up for me.02:18

cmaloneyIdeally we'll be there on Friday after work02:18
cmaloneywaldo323_: If you want to organize it. :)02:19
waldo323_I think Penguicon 24th -26th right?02:19
cmaloneyYou are most correct02:20
cmaloney24th-26th02:20
cmaloneyI fail maths02:20
waldo323_Having it at the bar is easier :-)02:20
cmaloneyYes, yes it is02:20
cmaloneywe had it at the bar last year and it worked out pretty well02:20
waldo323_Lots of people have been saying different numbers even at the meetings02:20
waldo323_So don't feel bad02:20
waldo323_Maybe more signage would be good ?02:21
cmaloneyI think adding it to my subliminal consciousness would be ace.02:21
cmaloneyRegardless, there are things afoot at Penguicon that you will want to be a part of as pertaining to Ubuntu02:22
cmaloneyso perchance one mught obtain passes to participate in such pertainment02:23
gamerchick02perhaps.02:23
cmaloneyI'll firm up the date and time02:23
cmaloneyIf you just want to go for the release party it'll cost a day-pass to Penguicon02:23

cmaloneyWe can have as many release parties as folks want to organize.02:25
gamerchick02i think it would be neat to have one over at the Red Ox near me. are there any ubuntu folks over by Oakland U?02:26
cmaloneyLikely02:26
cmaloneyIf you want to organize it by all means02:27
gamerchick02ok let me see what i can do02:27

gamerchick02yeah. i can see if there might be some people interested from work too.02:28
cmaloneyVery cool02:28
gamerchick02yeah. and if it doesn't work out as an ubuntu thing i won't be alone with some co-workers around. hah!02:30

rick_h_jrwren: Mark S suggested we check it out if we were coming in so I did :)17:58
rick_h_it seemed like a decent way to spend a day17:58
gamerchick02http://boingboing.net/2014/08/12/remembering-robin-williams-ci.html it's taken me five months to get to reading this.18:00
cmaloneyrick_h_: South African wine is quite good18:27
cmaloneyon par with Aussie wine which I like18:28
cmaloneygamerchick02: Yeah, Robin Williams death hit me pretty hard18:28
gamerchick02hit me REALLY hard. like "pow right in the feels"18:29
cmaloneyReally like the Shiraz but JoDee doesn't care for them18:29
gamerchick02usually celebrity deaths don't hit me like that but whoa18:29
cmaloneyso we generally get Merlots which we both like18:29
gamerchick02re wine: i usually drink MI wines...18:30
gamerchick02(and i prefer white anyway...)18:30
cmaloneyLoves me some reds18:31
cmaloneythough I don't mind the white wines from time to time18:31
gamerchick02:)18:32
cmaloneyI like some MI wines as well18:32
cmaloneyTend to like more of the sweeter wines up here18:32
gamerchick02yeah!18:32
cmaloneyThough the old addage of "they'll ferment most anything" is true of a lot of MI wine18:33
cmaloneyCherry wine in particular18:33
cmaloneyblech.18:33
gamerchick02ew18:33
brouschI love Cherry wine18:47
brouschDrank a bottle cranberry recently too. Awesome18:47
brouschSo flavorful18:47
* brousch sets another Dutch licorice coin on his tongue18:48
akellingStrawberry was always my favorite fruit wine.18:48
brouschCan't say I've tried it. blueberry is very powerful though18:49
akellingmmm Blueberry18:50
jrwrenbarley wine is good18:51
brouschThe nastiest wine I've had is asparagus18:52
akellingBarley wine will mess you up.18:52
akellingCheap wine that you can get in Ohio that is not to bad for fruits. http://www.breitenbachwine.com/18:52
akellingI never seen it in MI when I lived there.18:52
rick_h_cmaloney: yea, wine festival was a good thing18:53
brouschProbably because we have a hundred good wineries already ;)18:53
akellingI only seen cherry/apple in MI for fruits.18:54
akellingYeah MI has some great wineries and brewerys. Wish I could get Founders out here.18:54
brouschWe have some decent blueberry fields on the west side18:55
brouschMy friend in Charleston, SC has Founders. Surely you do too18:55
akellingI have not seen it out here. I am not sure if they distubute past MO.18:56
akellingChecked their site no one within 100 miles of my zip has it.18:59
brouschwow19:00
gamerchick02you can't order it and have it shipped?19:01
brouschShipping alcohol across state borders is not trivial19:02
gamerchick02ah.19:02
akellingI will just get some next time I am in STL.19:03
akellingI have seen Bells a few times but they want 11.99 a 6 pack19:03
gamerchick02dang!19:04
brouschSeems reasonable19:04
akellingYeah.... I enjoy two hearted but not that much. We have alot of good beers here in Colorado19:05
brouschtrudat19:05
rick_h_woot! I have working trackpoint buttons!19:06

akellingNice!19:06
rick_h_<319:06
rick_h_but it's a bit too new for crap to 'just work' yet19:06
akellingI like my thinkpad's too. What model do you have?19:07
rick_h_the 3rd gen x1 carbon19:07
brouschI never realized that was a button19:07
rick_h_well the trackpoint is back to having buttons vs 'click on the touchpad'19:07
rick_h_and the buttons didn't work19:07
akellingI have heard good things about those carbon's19:08
rick_h_yea, 2800x1400 px touchless display <319:08
akellingdamn19:08
jrwrendepends on the bells. expedition stout is $18 for a 6 pack, and worth every penny19:08
brouschtouchless. WHAT YEAR IS THIS?19:08
jrwrenrick_h_: wtf, how did you do that? I need an eMMC fix for my Acer.19:09
akellingYeah that expedition stout is so freaking good. Puts the buzz on too.19:09
rick_h_jrwren: jcastro hooked me up with folks from the server team here19:09
rick_h_and they took 5min to fix it and then they wanted to check it all out, file a bug, and both are looking at getting one now19:09
jrwrenrick_h_: oh man! so jelly.19:09
rick_h_<3 I want them to get one because then they'll make it all worky worky19:10
rick_h_https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/141720919:10
jrwrenrick_h_: you've convinced me to bring my acer to next sprint.19:10
rick_h_jrwren: definitely!19:10
cmaloneyakelling: I think that's the going rate19:20
cmaloneyBells beer went up in price19:20
cmaloneyPorter is 10.49 at Meijer19:20
cmaloneyThough it goes on special from time to time19:21
cmaloneyrick_h_: That's awesome.19:21
akellingO really cmaloney. Was 8.99 or 9.99 for a 6 pack in July. But if it went up in price then I dont feel as bad about it.19:22
cmaloneyYeah, it got expensive in the fall19:22
cmaloneyLike "Have to think about this one" expensive19:22
akellinggotcha19:24
jrwrenfunny how that $1 makes a difference, isn't it?19:38
akellingwell its a 3 dollar diffrence to me.19:39
cmaloneyIt's a couple of bucks, but yeah19:49
cmaloneybecomes a $10 six pack instead of a 8.99 six pack. :)19:49
jrwrenbecomes a shorts or other brewery six pack instead of a bells six pack :p19:52
cmaloneyYeah20:22
