[00:33] good evening [00:34] howdy jrwren [00:34] good weekend!!! [00:35] yes! [00:35] relaxing. [00:35] Polt won Sc2 Season1 2015 and umich came in 2nd at regionals, which I attended \m/ [00:35] coolQ [00:35] ! not Q [00:35] hah [00:35] and I was at least 24hrs without my laptop and I didn't twitch from withdrawl :p [00:35] have you tried out a pebble? [00:35] nope [00:36] lol, i'll be a week away from my computer in June and i'll be fine [00:36] other folks here love theirs. My wrist is anchor free. [00:36] well, i'm thinking about a Pebble Time. new and in color! [00:36] i have a watch. but it's a Timex. :-P [00:37] and the cool thing about a Pebble Time is that it's supposed to last 7 days on one charge [00:37] timex is sweet. [00:37] it was $20. [00:37] just a basic one with the date and a indiglo light [00:37] my daughter wears a timex that was my bday present when I turned 5. that was 33yrs ago [00:37] nice [00:38] oh, I forgot I wore an indiglo for a few years I really like that watch. [00:39] I <3 my Pebble [00:39] howdy cmaloney. i was wondering if you had a pebble or a google wear [00:39] picked up the Pebble Time when JoDee asked if we were getting htem. [00:39] Pebble [00:39] i want a pebble time i think [00:39] But I tend to be a little behind the curve [00:40] that's ok [00:40] * cmaloney has been playing with a lot of emulators lately [00:40] you're talking to someone who has a Samsung Galaxy S3 [00:40] <3 the Spectrum machine [00:40] :) [00:41] Samsung S2 Epic 4G touch. :) [00:41] OMG this lady is having twins; the first was stillborn [00:41] isn't a galaxy s3 from about 4yrs ago? [00:41] yes, i am watching Call the Midwife [00:41] 3 years ago i think [00:41] it runs kitkat! [00:41] It's newer than my phone. :) [00:41] that makes me want more downton abbey [00:42] there is only one more series of Downton [00:42] i know. so sad and yet so good. [00:42] Thank Christ. [00:42] you don't like Downton, cmaloney? [00:43] No, I'm saying they'll start losing the plot if it keeps going [00:43] YAY a live baby! [00:43] true [00:43] yup [00:43] i'm always happy when shows end before rather than after their time. [00:44] yes! [00:44] See: Big Bang Theory [00:45] oi [00:45] should have ended a while ago but that horse just keeps on whipping [00:45] should have died awhile ago? i'm not a huge fan of that show [00:45] i've watch bits and bobs [00:45] for geek culture, The IT Crowd is much better [00:46] big bang theory should have died aftr first episode. [00:46] jrwren: *cough* [00:46] bbt laughs AT nerds, not WITH nerds. [00:46] JoDee watches it. I think it's a bingo-machine of nerd tropes. [00:47] so true [00:47] so so true [00:47] again, The IT Crowd is very funny, if very British. [00:47] if you like that, then it's awesome. [00:59] Yeah, I <3 IT Crowd [00:59] :) [01:02] now it's Selfridge. bleh [01:02] i wish Wolf Hall was on at 9 [01:03] Yeah, no kidding [01:03] Anywho, we can start the meeting [01:03] which I'm sure everyone was waiting to start. [01:04] i guess. :-P i was watching Call the Midwife. was a good episode [01:04] http://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/ubuntu-us-mi/914/detail/ [01:04] That's the agenda for this meeting [01:04] which will be quite brief. :) [01:04] i have something that's come up so i can't come. i'm super bummed that i can't come. :( [01:04] We have our release party on Friday at Penguicon [01:04] bmmer indeed. [01:05] Believe it's at 8pm [01:05] nice [01:05] We'll be in the bar again par usual [01:05] nice. [01:05] I doubt we'll have CDs and what-not to give away [01:05] Will have to check to see [01:06] no swag? though most people just... download it. [01:06] hah [01:06] Yeah, that's pretty much why folks show up [01:06] swag and booze [01:07] Oh, and to hang out with folks [01:07] :) [01:07] But yeah, that's the plan for this time around [01:08] if someone wants to schedule another release party outside of the Penguicon one please feel free. [01:09] any ideas for a more northerly one? [01:09] I think it's a great idea. [01:09] If that's what you're looking for. :) [01:10] well, i'm not sure. suddenly a lot of crap has popped up for this month for me. [01:13] Right, but if someone wants to organize a more northerly Michigan event I'm all for that. [01:13] yes! [01:14] i'm surprised there's not a community around more universities [01:15] Yeah, not sure why that is [01:16] Kettering didn't have a linux club. [01:17] I know we get at least someone from time to time looking for something not in the Detroit area [01:18] Sorry I'm late :-/ didn't realize it was 9 already [01:18] well there's a bunch of people in the Grand Rapids area, i do believe. but not many in Mid-MI or Flint or even northern MI. [01:18] hi waldo323 [01:19] Hi gamerchick02 [01:20] waldo323: No worries. :) [01:20] Not a whole lot going on that you weren't aware of [01:23] Anywho, that's all that I have at the moment [01:28] nice [01:28] Thank you everyone for coming out! [01:29] you're welcome! [01:29] i have a question: what is your favorite thing about your Pebble? [01:29] Thank you for hosting [01:29] gamerchick02: Battery life, and doesn't over-promise. [01:30] nice [01:30] what do you think of the new Pebble Time? color screen and stuff? [01:30] Haven't received it yet. [01:30] Kickstarter just finished [01:31] you ordered one? sa-wheet [01:31] Yep [01:31] please send some impressions to g+ or your blog after you have it for awhile [01:32] i'm seriously thinking of getting one when it hits stores/the web. [01:32] i missed the kickstarter. :( but i've been looking at a smartwatch and i think the Time will hit all the things i need. [01:33] Will do [01:33] thanks [01:34] are you getting the Steel or the regular Time? [01:34] Regular [01:35] ok cool [01:45] i think i'll get one when it comes out to stores. i'd like to see how large it would be on my wrist [01:45] Well, I have the Steel and the original Pebble. They're not small. :) [01:47] ok [01:47] smaller than the Wear ones, maybe? [01:47] that's why i want to see it in the store. when it comes to best buy or something i'll see if fits my wrist [12:07] morning [12:18] party [13:16] Apparently I'm the only person in the office that doesn't own anything Tigers related [13:16] Or at least didn't wear anything Tigers related. [13:16] well if I was there I'd have joined you [13:17] (I still have a rather faded button from 1984 World Series) [13:17] Yeah, not into supporting pro sportball. :) [13:18] Now, if it were "dress like your favorite video game character" I'd be all over that. [13:25] oh right, opening day. go tigers. [13:26] seems odd for opening day when I saw snow falling yesterday [13:27] Yeah, well... Welcome to Michigan. [19:13] yay my bouncer [19:19] http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2015/04/new-york-woman-can-send-divorce-papers-via-facebook/ [19:19] Welcome to the future [19:19] served and witnessed [19:20] the fun bits are in the details. [19:20] one more reason to kill your facebook [19:21] I'd love to know how one divorces someone who disappears
