cmaloney | (unrelated: my script to log into work is called "morning") | 12:04 |
jrwren | cmaloney: ha! | 13:08 |
cmaloney | http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/global/3139/ | 15:27 |
cmaloney | Apparently it's this weekend | 15:28 |
cscheib | lulz: 7 people from 8 LoCos and 6 countries are participating in this event! | 15:29 |
cmaloney | There are more events in Russia than in the USA | 15:29 |
cscheib | methinks that event didn't have a strong planner | 15:29 |
cscheib | one can always just blame things on jcastro | 15:30 |
cscheib | I still blame Unity on him | 15:30 |
jcastro | hah | 15:33 |
jcastro | unity is awesome I don't know what you're talking about | 15:33 |
cmaloney | I <3 Unity | 15:33 |
jrwren | What is unit? | 15:33 |
jrwren | err, unity? | 15:33 |
cmaloney | jrwren: Are you using Ubuntu? | 15:34 |
jrwren | I don't even know what ubuntu desktop I run. xubuntu or lubuntu, but I'm never sure which. :) | 15:34 |
cmaloney | *rolls eyes* | 15:34 |
jrwren | cmaloney: I'm typing to you from irssi running on ubuntu. | 15:34 |
jrwren | cmaloney: connected to it from iterm on macosx :) | 15:34 |
jrwren | oh man, its global bug jam this weekend?!? | 15:35 |
jrwren | well, lets say I did my contribution by packaging up golang 1.5 rc1 to ppa last night :p | 15:36 |
cmaloney | jrwren: apparently | 15:36 |
cmaloney | I'm doing my part by saying "apparently it's [global jam] this weekend | 15:36 |
jrwren | I found this recently: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/One%20Hundred%20Papercuts/Fix/Lists%20of%20bugs | 15:37 |
jrwren | should be fun as a starting point. | 15:37 |
cmaloney | Look at those trending lines. :) | 15:38 |
jcastro | I didn't even know it was a jam this weekend? | 15:38 |
greg-g | jcastro: man, you canonical employees are sooo disconnected from the community! don't even know it's a jam this weekend?!?!?! | 15:39 |
cmaloney | jcastro: I only found out because Michael Hall posted on G+ | 15:40 |
greg-g | :P | 15:40 |
greg-g | g'morning :) | 15:40 |
cmaloney | greg-g's todo list: [x] Wake up [x] slag Ubuntu community [ ] get coffee | 15:40 |
cmaloney | ;) | 15:40 |
jcastro | greg-g: we apparently aren't the only ones who don't know either if only like 7 people showed up | 15:41 |
greg-g | :) | 15:41 |
jrwren | greg-g: its because we don't work on Ubuntu :( | 15:42 |
jcastro | fundamentally working on ubuntu is just boring/finished for me. | 15:43 |
jcastro | so many more problems to solve on top of the platform | 15:43 |
jcastro | which are more interesting, aka. giving people kubernetes or a libswarm cluster, etc. | 15:43 |
greg-g | (look at what my jest did! it made a serious-ish conversation! #winning) | 15:44 |
jcastro | lol | 15:44 |
jcastro | I always answer any question people have | 15:44 |
greg-g | lol | 15:44 |
greg-g | jcastro: what color undies today? | 15:44 |
cmaloney | I didn't even know I needed a kubernetes until jcastro told me I needed one | 15:44 |
jcastro | dark grey, next | 15:45 |
jcastro | cmaloney: I didn't say you needed kubernetes! | 15:45 |
jrwren | greg-g: you shouldn't ask that. Have you seen @aphyr's twitter feed? | 15:45 |
greg-g | uhhh,no? | 15:45 |
jrwren | cmaloney: you don't need a kubernetes. | 15:45 |
jrwren | greg-g: depending on work envirnonment you may not want to. | 15:45 |
greg-g | this ain't work for me :) | 15:45 |
cmaloney | So basically Ubuntu Desktop is unmaintained then? ;) | 15:49 |
jcastro | it's about the same level as unmaintained as every other desktop | 15:50 |
jcastro | https://i.imgur.com/C2g72iE.png | 15:52 |
jcastro | this is what windows 10's control panels look like | 15:52 |
jcastro | yes, panels, plural | 15:52 |
jcastro | they have 2 | 15:52 |
jcastro | apparently made by two totally different companies. | 15:53 |
cmaloney | Took a design cue from Blackberry / Lotus Notes | 15:53 |
jcastro | I was thinking more like GTK in 2002 | 15:53 |
cmaloney | Same thing | 15:54 |
cscheib | windows has had 2 control panels for a really long time anyway | 15:55 |
cscheib | there's the stupid task view | 15:55 |
cscheib | or the icon view | 15:55 |
jcastro | well, it's been like 15 years though | 15:55 |
jcastro | they're a multi-billion dollar company | 15:55 |
jcastro | we have an excuse, a handful of a few engineers and some part time volunteers | 15:56 |
cmaloney | Microsoft has never been too keen on folks mucking with their control settings anyway | 15:56 |
jcastro | yeah but that's not the point | 15:56 |
jcastro | have one or the other | 15:56 |
cmaloney | That's partly why they're so confusingly laid out : They don't expect you tofind then | 15:56 |
cmaloney | them | 15:56 |
jcastro | oh I never go looking for them, I just search | 15:57 |
jcastro | hmm, apparently MS has ~6000 people working on windows | 15:57 |
cscheib | yea, search fixes most of my problems | 15:59 |
jcastro | I don't think I've browsed a menu in like 3 years | 15:59 |
jcastro | on any OS | 15:59 |
jcastro | though, I think people are kind of overblowing the windows 10 thing | 16:00 |
jcastro | "omg it has a keylogger" | 16:00 |
jcastro | of course it does dude, how do you think predictive text correction works | 16:00 |
cscheib | they always go all nutty about everything | 16:01 |
cscheib | gotta have something to bitch about | 16:01 |
jcastro | there was a guy on a debian list complaining that his web browser made remote connections to remote servers | 16:01 |
jcastro | it's like, you know that's the definition of what a browser does | 16:01 |
cscheib | "here's TCPDUMP output with my username and password in it, because I didn't use SSL" | 16:02 |
cscheib | jcastro: well, I mean, you can browse your filesystem with it, but it's not particularly effective at that | 16:03 |
jcastro | speaking of worthless tech | 16:04 |
jcastro | I got some amazon dash buttons | 16:04 |
jcastro | they're so awesome, it literally is worthless | 16:04 |
jcastro | you push a button and it orders garbage bags from amazon | 16:04 |
cmaloney | jcastro: /me makes it his life's mission to teach your dogs to push those buttons | 16:05 |
jcastro | they're actually kind of neat, they are DDoS proof | 16:06 |
jcastro | so it only orders on item, and you can't order another one until the one you asked for is delivered | 16:06 |
jcastro | so like you can't just push my button 50 times and cost me money | 16:06 |
cmaloney | Hah, nice. | 16:06 |
* cmaloney is listening to Procol Harum - Conquistador | 16:07 | |
cmaloney | <3 | 16:08 |
jcastro | I want to hack them to do other IoT-like things though | 16:09 |
jcastro | turn on/off lights, etc. | 16:09 |
cscheib | "the Tide button is rave mode for the basement" | 16:09 |
cmaloney | hah | 16:09 |
jcastro | if I could tie it to that company in AA that delivers beer | 16:09 |
jcastro | man | 16:09 |
jcastro | you know that would be awesome | 16:09 |
cmaloney | I'd settle for the fridge coming to me | 16:10 |
cscheib | I'm sure Uber will add alcohol delvery eventually | 16:11 |
cscheib | they're already starting on restaurant delivery | 16:11 |
jcastro | we have lyft locally here too | 16:26 |
jcastro | it's nice | 16:26 |
cmaloney | http://meercatsthatlooklikebruceschnier.tumblr.com/ | 18:50 |
cscheib | that's great | 18:55 |
