zmoylan-pithey're kinda the equivalent of text editors, everyone has a project to do one...12:38
zmoylan-pithen you just go feck it and choose vim...12:38
diddledanthat's a big backlash from making your own12:39
sebsebsebhey look no other name15:59
sebsebseb,but wh'y's that??15:59
popeywat?16:00
DJonessebsebseb: Can you ask your question in English, Doesn't make any sense16:01
sebsebsebDJones: it should to some here :)16:01
sebsebsebwhy don't I have my other name ?16:01
DJonessebsebseb: Check your client16:01
sebsebsebDJones: no that's not the right answer :d16:01
sebsebsebI know exactly why16:01
DJonesAnd no, your question didn't make any sense at all16:02
sebsebsebDJones: probably since you haven't seen me or enough with the other name, a uhm m tablet name16:02
DJones"sebErm, yes I have16:02
DJonessebsebseb: Yes I have16:02
sebsebsebwhy am I not using that name, that's my question16:02
sebsebseband no it's not since certain people here apparntly loved it h eh16:03
DJonesYou probably need to ask in #freenode as #ubuntu-uk has no control over your nick, its either a freenode issue or a user issue16:03
sebsebsebDJones: no it's not that16:09
sebsebsebDJones: quite simpally since not using the tablet that's the answer :d16:09
sebsebsebcertain people uhmm  weren't so keen on the tablet name16:09
sebsebsebusing a lap top right now so not that name16:09
sebsebsebjust my old boring name for lap tops16:10
popeysebsebseb: updated your tablet to OTA-13?16:14
sebsebsebpopey: not just yet,  but will later :)16:16
sebsebsebbeing able to copy and paste between  native apps and libertine will be useful at times :)16:17
popeyyeah16:17
popeyso I'll bite, why aren't you sebsebsebbqm10tabletlongname?16:17
sebsebsebpopey:  since as menioned above :d,  it was to do with accounts really. and passwords, why I  had a name like that as well, differnet device diffenrt name, what's my uhmm password for htis account uhmm....  and a bit of fun as well.  why not have a differnet name on the tablet or for now ?16:18
sebsebsebbut using lap top right now16:18
sebsebsebso on the standard old name16:18
popey:)16:19
sebsebsebpopey: I remember a guy who used to have three similar names in IRC, to do with the distro, but then it started looking like he had names on old releases to, since how those names were done, but no it was actsaully each computer with Mageia16:19
popeyprobbaly idleone, he registered loads of nicks of release names16:21
DJonessebsebseb: No worries, I understand your first comments now, apologies for the  misunderstanding16:22
sebsebsebpopey: no one of the former Mageia contributers, ( who sadly has died as well)  it was a Magiea channel as well.16:23
sebsebsebDJones: it's ok, no problem :)16:23
DJonessebsebseb: I misunderstood, so just wanted to apologise16:23
popeyyeah, it's getting to the point where we're all getting older, and some of the people we worked with are dying off16:23
DJonesWhat are we going to do when Linus passes away ?16:24
sebsebsebpopey: yeah he got ill etc lung cancer,  shame, since he had such plans etc as well16:24
sebsebsebget to come across some awesome people of various types in open source really :)16:24
sebsebsebDJones: or even Richard Stallman? but wow 60 and still travlling the world, doing his two hour long talks16:26
DJonessebsebseb: 60's nothing, I'd just class that as middle age now16:27
sebsebsebDJones: some people die before 60 as well hmm :(16:27
DJonessebsebseb: I think age bands have jumped about 20 years though, my parents about to hit 80 and heading to Australia16:27
sebsebsebyes for some reason we livev longer now in general16:28
sebsebsebwell in developed counteries16:28
popeyyeah, my nan hit 100 this year16:28
sebsebsebeven though the world generally is much more polluted now hmm16:28
DJonesQuite true16:28
sebsebsebbut that guy was only 50's which is ashame16:29
davmor2popey: did you request the telemessage from the Queen?16:30
popeywe got one16:30
popeyand one from Ian & Duncan Smith16:30
sebsebseb was going to maybe meet him once, but didn't happen16:30
popeywhich she scoffed at16:30
sebsebsebanyway16:30
davmor2popey: hahaha16:30
sebsebsebdavmor2: popey uh what's this16:30
davmor2popey: but liked the one from the Queen right :)16:30
popeyyeah16:30
popeysebsebseb: when you are 100 you get a letter from the queen and a letter from the home secretary16:31
sebsebseboh16:31
sebsebseboh didn't know that16:31
sebsebsebpopey: so what's in the loco pack? apparnatly getting one of those for the event :)16:34
sebsebsebthat's good16:34
sebsebsebpopey: I mean like how much of things...16:35
popeynot sure, I think it's listed on the wiki16:42
sebsebsebpopey: yeah probably on a page I was on before, anyway should be good, thanks to the community team for accepting :)16:43
sebsebsebpopey: apparantly there's an issue with usb sticks though, but can make own16:43
popeynp16:44
sebsebsebpopey: I  know with Ubuntu touch you don't say to the public to just go and buy it etc,  but do you think showing convergence for example, could be interesting.  or using it even to say  project  some open movies onto the projecter16:46
popeyDemoing convergence is a neat thing to do, especially if you can show convergent apps across multiple platforms.16:48
sebsebsebpopey: multiple platfors as in ? with android as well or what do you mean?16:52
sebsebsebthe idea is to show Linux in a few or so forms, plus have some creative commons thing in the event ot make it more interesting to people16:53
sebsebsebpopey: I think the event needs spreading on Facebook better than it has been so far,  it's mentioned in certian other places as well though,  and the venue itself will have people coming there all day anyway, but hmm16:54
ali1234are there any really good converged apps yet? by which i mean apps where the desktop and phone interfaces look completely different, not just all three pages of the phone UI shown side by side17:25
ali1234also, any real converged productivity apps?17:26
zmoylan-pii've been using mobile since 94 when i got my first psion... then i just wanted some simple apps like text editor, spreadsheet and flat file database to have mobile data.  it's now 2016 and i'm seriously thinking i should just spring for an ancient psion as it did mobile so well and nothing new seems to match it's flexability18:07
knightwi1ehow do you mean flexibility18:31
zmoylan-pii could usually put any data i wanted in a presentable readable form that could be worked on desktop or mobile in those 3 apps.  when i started using the psion language opl to automate stuff as well18:34
