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