sethj | unix stickers released ubuntu stickers today http://www.unixstickers.com/ubuntu. Does that sound news worthy? | 15:29 |
pleia2 | we could link to a blog post or something about it (though I can't find one), but we don't typically just link to product links as news | 17:18 |
sethj | pleia2, hmm, they don't have a blog.. but they tweeted about it. Does that work? | 17:28 |
pleia2 | I don't love it since it's also coming directly from the vendor, usually we only include products that someone else is writing about | 17:29 |
pleia2 | going down this path opens us up to vendors contacting us to hawk their wares, with no external review/verification | 17:29 |
sethj | hmmm. well it just seemed like big news seeing as the only other way to get swag is from canonical in the UK.. | 17:30 |
pleia2 | I do like unix stickers as a company, which is the only reason I'd consider it :) | 17:30 |
sethj | OMG Ubuntu wrote an article about their xubuntu ones.. | 17:31 |
sethj | maybe they'll pick this one up too. | 17:31 |
pleia2 | is shipping from Italy that much cheaper/faster than the UK? | 17:32 |
pleia2 | I don't recall it being particularly fast the last time they sent me something, but I didn't pay for any of it (xubuntu team goodies they gave to us) | 17:32 |
sethj | pleia2, unbelievably so. | 17:33 |
sethj | it's $10 USD for a t-shirt, compared to $30 from the UK. | 17:34 |
pleia2 | yeesh | 17:34 |
tsimonq2 | sethj, pleia2: does this count? http://fullcirclemagazine.org/2016/05/24/official-ubuntu-stickers-unixstickers/ | 20:21 |
pleia2 | tsimonq2: it does! :) | 20:22 |
pleia2 | thanks | 20:22 |
tsimonq2 | no problem :) | 20:23 |
sethj | tsimonq2, excellent find! | 21:09 |
tsimonq2 | sethj: :) | 22:52 |
