wxlpleia2: do you know nixie pixel at all?03:37
pleia2wxl: I *think* we've met before (I know we've both been at the same event before), but I don't really know her05:05
Kilosmorning pleia2  and all others05:05
Kiloshi wxl  too05:06
wxlpleia2: i just discovered her today. seems like someone with some high visibility who is very motivated to spread the word about ubuntu. she's someone your loco needs! you should invite her to do a talk or something.05:06
wxljust saying05:06
wxli mean i'm a bit jealous :)05:06
wxlhi Kilos :)05:07
Kilosyou and i hey wxl  05:07
Kilos:-)05:07
pleia2wxl: we don't really have events with talks, she has come out to a couple geeknics (geek picnic) though, that's where our events overlapped05:07
wxlpleia2: talks are a good way to get people together. i usually hijack our LUG's talks ☺05:08
wxli really want to do one soon on playing with kpatch05:08
* wxl can not wait until he can patch his kernel on the fly05:09
pleia2I can certainly suggest to the LUGs that they invite her out (I don't really know where she's based though, the Bay Area is biiig :))05:09
wxlpleia2: yeah well her twitter says san francisco, but i was watching a recent video that suggests seattle, but maybe she was there for an event.05:09
pleia2ah, cool05:10
nhaineswxl: ever been to SCALE?05:13
Kilosmorning nhaines  05:13
wxlunfortunately, no, nhaines 05:13
nhainesIt's a good show.  Very friendly, and the Ubuntu booth was a big success this last time around.05:15
nhainesIs Ubuntu Oregon planning anything for OSCON this year?05:16
wxlyes, nhaines 05:40
wxl…if they get back to me05:40
wxlthey said they would05:40
wxl…and then they didn't05:40
nhaineswxl: I haven't gotten up to speed, and I intend to, but how long has Ubuntu Oregon been back up and running?  Have you done any big booths before?05:43
wxlnot very long, nhaines! since last year's oscon essentially. *i* haven't done any big booths for oregon or open source sutff but i have for retail stuff at industry events.05:44
nhainesOh, that's really interesting.  :)05:44
nhainesI've been doing the SCALE booth for 8 years now.  I was thinking of flying up for OSCON and helping out with the booth.05:46
wxloh man that would be rad05:46
nhainesIf I do decide to do so, I'd want to make sure we're all working together.  And of course if you can do OSCON, you can do any other booth, for sure.  :)05:46
wxli'm certainly confident in my abilities :)05:47
nhainesAnd I in mine.  I'd love to see if I could learn from you.  :)05:47
Tm_Thai05:47
wxli'm sure we have something to learn from each other! :)05:48
nhainesThe absolute best thing about meritocracies.  :)05:48
Kiloshi Tm_T  05:48
wxlheheh, yep05:48
nhainesOkay, so I'll make sure to keep an eye on things and find out what Canonical's plans are for an Ubuntu booth, and then we'll make sure the booth looks really slick.  Do you guys have a banner and table cloth?05:49
wxlwell bkerensa has it or knows where ti is, so yes, but not quite :)05:50
qwinnerlocal connection lose05:50
nhainesOkay, I'll either bring a set or (better) have Canonical ship one.  I'm telling you so you remind me.  ;)05:51
wxlyes, sir!05:51
nhainesOr, of course, you're an Ubuntu member so when you put in for a community reimbursement request (conference pack and all that) you can ask them.  They have one they ship around.05:52
wxlgood idea05:52
wxlwould be good to have SOMETHING05:52
nhaineswxl: the SCALE booth looked like this http://people.ubuntu.com/~nhaines/images/events/2015/scale13x/IMG_20150220_134213.jpg05:53
nhainesANd on the right table we had some flyers and sometimes an Orange Box.05:53
wxlwhoa fancy05:53
wxlare you using that screen to display the phone?05:54
nhainesHa, don't I wish!  It just looped the two phone promo videos.05:55
wxlis that even possible?05:55
wxlOOH maybe i should get snappy on my new pi2!05:56
nhainesTechnically although my phone refuses to do it.  :)05:56
wxlwhat phone?05:56
nhainesI ran snappy on my pi 2 briefly, before throwing Raspbian on it.  :)05:56
nhainesNexus 5.05:56
wxli've got a 405:57
wxlis that equally technically possible as far as you know?05:57
nhainesIt would've been fantastic if we'd gotten it working.  :)05:57
nhainesYes, equally technicall possible.05:57
nhainesAnd probably what aq used his blog post demonstrating how to do it.05:58
wxlwhich where?05:58
wxlwhy did you decide not to stick with snappy, out of curiousity?05:59
nhainesBecause I haven't decided what to use it for, and I might be giving a friend's kid one to learn Python on.  So ince snappy doesn't have a desktop snappy package...06:00
wxlah06:00
nhainesBut I do have a couple ideas that will eventually work quite well with snappy.  :)06:00
nhainesJust need more microSD cards.06:00
wxlwhere's this blog, my friend?06:01
nhaineshttp://www.kryogenix.org/days/2015/01/21/live-screencasting-from-ubuntu-phone/06:02
wxlooh i didn't even know i HAD a display port06:02
wxlah nice but kind of cheating :)06:02
nhainesOh, it might at that, actually, but I have no idea how well it's working.  It shuold be working pretty close though.06:02
wxlman i got to find a mydp → hdmi|vga converter06:05
nhainesHa, yeah, I need to get an adapter too.  I grabbed the wrong power adapter for the Pi 2 (too many amps) so maybe I can swap it for a HDMI adapter for my phone instead.06:08
nhaineswxl: how many loco volunteers do you think would show up for an OSCON booth?06:09
wxlmost of our peeps are in pdx, so06:36
wxlaw no mydp on my s5 :(06:39
nhainesOkay.  In about a month or so I should be able to figure out whether Canonical has anything planned.06:39
wxlfor oscon?06:40
nhainesHopefully you should know by then too, but I'll make sure that you do.  :)06:40
nhainesYup.06:40
wxlthey weren't there last year though someone left some swag around06:40
nhainesBetween the phones and snappy Ubuntu Core, it'd be a good fit.  But we'll see.  They've been changing their budget around I think.06:42
wxli don't have a lot of openstack experience but i'm sure we could figure out something there, too06:42
wxlthere was a lot of openstack stuff last year06:42
nhainesYeah, they've been working really hard on that too.06:46
nhainesDustin Kirkland, Jorge Castro, and José Antonio Rey were around to talk about Juju and Openstack at SCALE and unfortunately I never got to listen in on them because I was on phone duty.06:47
wxlyou weren't showing off bq phones were you?06:47
nhainesStuart Langridge lent us his for the weekend.  I usually held onto it.06:47
wxlniiice06:48
nhainesYeah, there are only about 30 in existence right now, so it was a huge honor.06:53
wxlwow06:54
nhainesWell, another week and there'll be hundreds of them.  :)  But it was very, very nice of him to do that.06:56
wxlwell it will be really neat when we have them in the us proper too06:56
wxli can't wait to find out who it is :)06:57
nhainesIt sounded an awful lot like the Meizu Note.06:58
