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