| flocculant | ochosi: well a laptop is a computer and so is a smart phone :p (main reason for saying was I'd not noticed before so thought it was something new) | 06:32 |
|---|---|---|
| flocculant | and re whisker - ack :) | 06:32 |
| ochosi | flocculant: i've been using 1.6 for so long i dont know if it's a change by heart. but at least i believe not | 12:03 |
| bluesabre | ochosi, flocculant, yeah, I think the "Computer" string has been there for a while | 12:26 |
| flocculant | :) | 12:30 |
| flocculant | hi bluesabre :) | 12:31 |
| bluesabre | hiya flocculant | 12:31 |
| flocculant | bluesabre: that bios bug is a bit nasty :p | 12:33 |
| flocculant | glad it's not some xfpackage :D | 12:33 |
| knome | oh | 12:34 |
| knome | didn't you hear it's actually caused by xflocculant | 12:34 |
| flocculant | hi knome | 12:34 |
| knome | ;) | 12:34 |
| flocculant | woohoo | 12:34 |
| knome | hello flocculant, bluesabre | 12:34 |
| flocculant | good for something then :D | 12:34 |
| bluesabre | :D | 12:35 |
| bluesabre | the xflocculant package prefills duplicate bug reports with swear words | 12:36 |
| flocculant | ha ha ha | 12:36 |
| knome | how christmas-spirity! | 12:36 |
| bluesabre | :D | 12:36 |
| knome | bluesabre, does it also draw elliptical circles on boot? | 12:37 |
| flocculant | knome: it does all that and more | 12:37 |
| flocculant | reporting bugs on that package installs any media player that can be found | 12:37 |
| knome | make sure you don't install xflocculant-bad let alone speaking of xflocculant-ugly | 12:38 |
| bluesabre | oh boy! | 12:38 |
| knome | the bug reports can get really nasty if you do that | 12:38 |
| flocculant | then finds bugs in them and reports those as duplicates | 12:38 |
| bluesabre | hahaha | 12:38 |
| bluesabre | great stuff | 12:38 |
| knome | the xflocculant-good package isn't exactly R either | 12:38 |
| flocculant | there is no xflocculant-good package ... | 12:39 |
| knome | haha | 12:39 |
| knome | i think i meant PG though | 12:39 |
| knome | of whatever | 12:39 |
| knome | those letter ratings are WEEEIRD | 12:39 |
| flocculant | yup | 12:39 |
| knome | just put the age number on the box | 12:39 |
| bluesabre | just confirmed | 12:39 |
| bluesabre | E: Unable to locate package xflocculant-good | 12:39 |
| flocculant | yup | 12:39 |
| flocculant | bluesabre: ha ha ha | 12:39 |
| ochosi | hey bluesabre | 14:09 |
| pleia2 | knome: mind if I reboot the dev server for a new kernel? | 14:26 |
| flocculant | pleia2: saw the e-mail - tia :) | 15:20 |
| pleia2 | :) | 15:21 |
| slickymaster | thanks pleia2, for the heads up on the server reboot | 16:16 |
| pleia2 | welcome | 16:17 |
| slickymaster | :) | 16:17 |
| knome | pleia2, go ahead | 17:05 |
| knome | better do it before we launch the wallpaper contest | 17:05 |
| pleia2 | in progress | 17:05 |
| knome | i'm trying to get the rest of the hacking on the wp plugin done today so i can push it to our dev server | 17:05 |
| knome | yup | 17:06 |
| pleia2 | all done :) | 17:06 |
| knome | ta | 17:06 |
| knome | pleia2, do you remember if we allowed lp/openid logins last time with the wallpaper contest? | 17:09 |
| knome | i'm pretty sure we did, but want confirmation | 17:09 |
| knome | and when i say allowed i mean did we force that | 17:09 |
| pleia2 | I don't remember | 17:11 |
| knome | ok | 17:13 |
| flocculant | knome: no we did, or yes we didn't :p | 17:20 |
| knome | :P | 17:23 |
| flocculant | http://ubottu.com/meetingology/logs/xubuntu-devel/2016/xubuntu-devel.2016-02-17-22.00.log.html | 17:28 |
| knome | wall of text, sigh ;) | 17:28 |
| knome | fortunately i don't need the info bit now | 17:28 |
| knome | thanks for digging it up, i'll read it when i need the info :P | 17:29 |
| flocculant | kind of about 22:07 - we're talking about lp login and some wordpress openid plugin, which wasn't quite qhat we wanted | 17:29 |
| flocculant | all that aside - openid is often a pain - I've tried it and 'ubuntu' credentials didn't work at least once | 17:30 |
| knome | yeah, it can be wonky | 17:30 |
| knome | but tbh, if the alternative is to make people register "yet one more account", it's boo | 17:30 |
| flocculant | then don't expect logins | 17:31 |
| knome | but spam? | 17:31 |
| knome | nah, that's crappier | 17:31 |
| flocculant | but for how long ... | 17:31 |
| knome | how long what? spam? | 17:31 |
| flocculant | contest | 17:31 |
| knome | i thought we intended to keep this contest open for months | 17:31 |
| knome | so... no, it's not realistic that we open it for everybody | 17:32 |
| flocculant | not long then | 17:32 |
| knome | eg. we let people upload any kind of images on our server | 17:32 |
| knome | and we will publicly display them with no moderation | 17:32 |
| flocculant | logging in won't stop that | 17:32 |
| knome | no, but it will definitely slow t down | 17:32 |
| knome | it* | 17:32 |
| flocculant | nope | 17:32 |
| knome | it will, it did the last time :) | 17:33 |
| flocculant | you don't know that - you don't have anything to compare it with - first time for us :) | 17:33 |
| flocculant | anyway - I'll likely be the only voice wanting to make this easy for the community - so I'll say no more ;) | 17:34 |
| knome | i want to make it easy for the community, but not easy for the spammers | 17:35 |
| knome | i know we can't really get both | 17:35 |
| knome | so i'll err to the side of caution and make it a bit harder for the spammers :P | 17:35 |
| knome | fortunately this is on a server we can administer so we can adjust quickly if we start to see some crap | 17:35 |
| flocculant | well that's not quite true - you want to make sure it's only for people to put up their own content | 17:35 |
| knome | again, nobody outside the team submitted work that wasn't their own | 17:36 |
| flocculant | mmm | 17:36 |
| knome | so this is only limiting how much the team would have had word in what they started voting from | 17:36 |
| flocculant | and if team hadn't - how many contributed - off the top of your head number - less than 5 or so iirc | 17:37 |
| flocculant | anyway - not letting me draw me in to this :D | 17:37 |
| knome | probably, but it would have been a more serious "community" contest | 17:37 |
| knome | ;P | 17:37 |
| knome | pleia2, we have that "old" sticker stock | 17:37 |
| knome | pleia2, "do we want to" give it away as prizes? | 17:37 |
| knome | eg. let's get done with those old stickers | 17:38 |
| pleia2 | sgtm | 17:38 |
| flocculant | lol | 17:38 |
| knome | if we seem to have a sensible amount of submitters, we can send one to each | 17:38 |
| knome | or treat the winners with a big bunch | 17:38 |
| knome | whatever :) | 17:38 |
| pleia2 | ok :) | 17:39 |
| flocculant | knome: might be worth preparing the ground with some social stuff for it - before it's actually live | 17:40 |
| knome | flocculant, absolutely | 17:40 |
| knome | flocculant, though it doesn't really matter if the contest is open january 1 and we start playing the drums a week after | 17:41 |
| knome | as long as it's open for a long enough time for everybody to take part | 17:41 |
| flocculant | I guess so | 17:41 |
| knome | but yes, we'll do the social media stuff too obviously | 17:41 |
| knome | and blog article | 17:41 |
| knome | all but one TODO cleared from the code | 17:54 |
| knome | which is really POSTPONED | 17:54 |
| knome | haha, old wordpress | 17:56 |
| flocculant | thanks for working on it | 17:56 |
| knome | no problem | 17:56 |
| knome | and of course | 17:56 |
| knome | i want this to be as smooth as possible - as do you | 17:56 |
| knome | let's update that wp instance today | 17:58 |
| knome | hmm | 18:04 |
| knome | it would help if i had the correct setup there | 18:05 |
| knome | i didn't break anything! i didn't break anything! | 18:08 |
| knome | hooray | 18:08 |
| knome | as a prize for myself, i'll go iron a tablecloth... | 18:09 |
| knome | bbabl | 18:09 |
| knome | https://contest.xubuntu.org/help/ | 18:22 |
| knome | ^ that says it all | 18:22 |
| pleia2 | :D | 18:24 |
| knome | do we have any reason to prefer CC-BY 3.0 over 4.0? | 21:46 |
