tsimonq2wxl: Around?00:39
wxltsimonq2: unfortunately, more than i would like00:40
tsimonq2wxl: heh00:40
wxlwell, maybe the roundness isn't the problem00:40
wxlso much as the total diameter00:40
tsimonq2O_o00:40
tsimonq2wxl: So for LFNW, you coming?00:40
wxlwell i'm still waiting for canonical to write me back but i hope so!~00:41
tsimonq2wxl: Who did you email to get the booth last year?00:41
wxlyou just do it all online00:41
valorieah, I've not done that00:42
tsimonq2Does sponsor@linuxfestnorthwest.org sound right?00:42
valorieI did it last year I think?00:42
tsimonq2valorie: Which is why I wanna get it out of the way :)00:42
valorieok, awesome00:42
tsimonq2Hmm, I don't remember if wxl or valorie did it, but I thought it was wxl?00:42
wxlhttps://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSckSCNmROlwreqR1djaDu8zfjnnHxy5zD9HSjw89RbG_r2Dgg/viewform00:42
tsimonq2¯\_(ツ)_/¯00:42
tsimonq2Oh00:43
tsimonq2Ok00:43
tsimonq2I'll fill it out00:43
wxlwas last year when i kind of did all the legwork to get the funding for you and scarlett valorie?00:43
wxlor am i thinking of something else?00:43
valoriescarlett hasn't come for a few years00:43
wxltsimonq2: i remember popey talking about whether or not canonical could sponsor one of the parties00:43
* wxl sure misses scarlett.00:44
valoriebut you were a huge help then, yes00:44
valorieooo00:44
wxlwell at least i remember something right00:44
tsimonq2wxl: I thought that ended up being a "no" because popey and Wimpress couldn't come.00:44
valoriethat would be Canonical though00:44
valorienot us00:44
wxlah ok00:44
valoriewe just need a table00:44
wxlright00:44
wxlyes yes00:44
valorienot to be a sponsor00:44
wxlyou're right good point00:44
tsimonq2I haven't met Scarlett but she sounds super friendly :)00:44
wxlscarlett is like a lot of the kubuntu community: darn good people.00:44
tsimonq2valorie: right which is why I suggested sponsor@linuxfestnorthwest.org because it's in https://res.cloudinary.com/hcgshkmdf/image/upload/v1509665319/awe6rj3o8mfewhqkcvbg.pdf00:44
wxladmittedly that works, too00:45
tsimonq2wxl, valorie: Mind doing some digging to see 1) Who did it last year for us and 2) What the email was?00:45
valoriedoing it now00:45
tsimonq2Like, I dunno what I should plan on saying :)00:45
tsimonq2Ok cool cool00:45
wxlif that was last year when i helped i'm almost 100% sure i did it00:46
wxli nwhich case, i did it all online00:46
tsimonq2wxl: Well remember that last year was when you reserved the hotel room but last minute as we were walking in the door had the names on it be transferred to me and ahoneybun, and they let me sign anyways for the room even though I'm not 18 yet :)00:47
valoriewell phooey, they have changed stuff on the website00:50
valoriei'll write to the list or tweet at someone etc.00:51
tsimonq2Ok00:51
valoriedinner01:03
valoriewill finish when I return01:03
tsimonq2valorie: Thanks for the email!03:30
tsimonq2valorie, acheronuk: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/lubuntu-devel/2017-December/001118.html03:31
valoriewhat email?03:35
valorieI just sent one to the fest-list if that's what you are talking about?03:36
valorieinteresting about putting the packaging in git03:36
valoriedon't we already do that in Kubuntu?03:36
valoriesince years ago03:37
tsimonq2valorie: Yeah I was talking about the fest email03:42
tsimonq2valorie: But our seeds, the base which makes up kubuntu-meta, has always been in Bazaar.03:42
tsimonq2valorie: Lubuntu's going to be the first to say "bye bye!"03:43
valorieah, OK03:43
valoriecolor me impressed that you are on fest-list03:43
tsimonq2I didn't even know I was there XD03:43
tsimonq2But I guess I subscribed at one point03:44
valorielol03:44
tsimonq2valorie: I'm (obviously) +1 to converting to Git, although if you think Kubuntu should do something similar, I'd like a +1 from at minimum acheronuk :)03:45
valorieyeah03:45
valorieseems like getting everything into git is a plus03:46
tsimonq2I agree03:46
tsimonq2And I'm working with gilir to see if we can convert *all* the Lubuntu things over.03:46
IrcsomeBot1<ahoneybun> I should he going to LFNW07:15
IrcsomeBot1<ahoneybun> *be07:15
IrcsomeBot1<tsimonq2> Would be great to see you there!17:05
IrcsomeBot1<ahoneybun> would it?19:31
IrcsomeBot1<tsimonq2> ...yes?19:35
valorieooo, ahoneybun, what great news!21:24
valorieI'm gonna assume you will be at a different booth though!21:25
wxlbut with free computers for us21:25
valorierofl21:25
valorieof course!21:25
valoriewell, I already have mine and don't need or want another21:25
wxlyou have a 76?21:25
ahoneybunValorie does21:26
valorieyep, got it last year just before LFNW21:27
valoriethe oryx21:27
valorietoo big to bring along21:27
wxlwow wish i could afford the one i want :)21:27
wxli got an hp envy for xmas21:27
IrcsomeBot1<Sick_Rimmit> So today I got a matrix.org account, I searched for Kubuntu, and er nothing 😮21:49
wxlyou CAN just join #freenode_#channelname:matrix.org21:50
wxlbut if someone wants to make a room and bridge it to the channel, it will essentially result in the same thing, only it will be easier to find i guess?21:51
ricktimmis[m]Stone the crows, it looks like it worked !!!21:54
valoriehey ricktimmis[m]!21:54
ricktimmis[m]Arrrgh!! Hi a cool is that 😁21:54
ricktimmis[m]Hey21:55
ricktimmis[m]I also pleased21:55
valorieone thing that's nice is that tab-complete works for matrix accounts21:55
wxlsee? easy21:55
wxlyep21:55
wxland you can see the users on irc21:55
wxlas opposed to who knows who si on telegram21:55
wxlcould be a bunch of trolls21:55
wxlbonus points if you figure out how to auth to services, ricktimmis[m] :)21:55
wxl(clue: yes, it's totally possibly and not very hard)21:56
ricktimmis[m]Not sure I even understand what you mean21:56
wxldo you have a nickserv account?21:57
ricktimmis[m]I do21:57
ricktimmis[m]#freenode_nickserve identify rhiali98121:58
wxlso when you connect to that account with nickserv you're auth(enticating) to (nick)services21:58
wxloh no :(21:58
wxlthat's not how you do it unfortunatley.... especially when it means leaking your password to a public channel :(21:58
ricktimmis[m]Don't worry that's a bogus pass21:59
wxlok, well, you're on the right track21:59
valorieright, rhiali98121:59
valorielol21:59
wxlyou DO need to figure out how to message nickserv as your matrix user and do that very same thing21:59
wxldon't forget to also give it the group command so it registeres your matrix nick (ricktimmis[m]) under your regular nickserv account22:00
ricktimmis[m]Ah nevermind22:01
valorieyou can use /msg nickserv help group22:01
valorieor whatever command22:01
ricktimmis[m]I'm way to old to even consider work that stuff out worth while22:01
valoriepffff22:01
ricktimmis[m]You can all feel it's me by the grammar, and typos22:02
valorieyou ain't older than ME22:02
wxl /alias whios whois22:02
wxl^^ speaking of which i just made that22:02
ricktimmis[m]Lol22:04
wxli also have: /alias ls names22:04
wxlcuz that happens a lot22:04
ricktimmis[m]Anyway hope everyone is having a good Christmas holidays22:05

ricktimmis[m]Ah, it's been not so good, been running crazy with the trouble around my mum, then I got pneumonia from the hospital, which smashed me for Christmas.22:06
valoriehusband is on the couch next to me now22:06
valoriericktimmis[m]:22:07
valorie:(22:07
wxlyikes sorry ricktimmis[m]. hope you feel better.22:07
valorieis your mum recovering?22:07
ricktimmis[m]I'm getting better, hence why I am very back playing with tech22:07
valorieand are YOU22:07
valoriepneumonia is nothing to play with22:08
ricktimmis[m]My mum is improved quite a lot22:08
valorieI've had both the shots22:08
valoriethat's good to hear22:08
wxlwhatever we got, doc thinks is not the flu but a random virus22:08
valorieI hear norovirus is going around again22:08
valoriegot that once and that is enough, thank you22:09
wxli managed to kick it one day thanks to phở gà22:09
wxlwhatever it was22:09
wxli wonder if that's what it is :(22:09
ricktimmis[m]Fortunately it's got that, cuz that is based sickness22:09
valorieif they are violently running at both ends, that's it22:09
wxloh, nope, not that. "winter vomiting bug" doesn't sound right :)22:09
valoriewe all got it on the same day, and there are only two bathrooms22:10
valorie....22:10
ricktimmis[m]No I got massive temperature, fever, shakes, pains, weakness22:10
wxlnot sure whether to laugh or cry about that one22:10
ricktimmis[m]Short breathe22:10
wxlis the fever broken at least, ricktimmis[m] ?22:10
ricktimmis[m]Absolutely exhausted22:10
ricktimmis[m]Yes fever broke boxing Day22:11
* valorie slides over some hot lemon juice with honey + rum or whatever22:11
wxlyou should be on the mend then22:11
valorieginger can be nice too, esp. if you are feeling cold22:11
wxlunfortunately for my ladies, they've broken the temp but still utterly congested, coughing, can't get the phlegm out, still feeling run down :(22:11
ricktimmis[m]Yes, i am getting better22:11
wxli advise elderberry, personally. nothing better, imho.22:12
valorieI've not tried elderberry22:12
wxlsomething bone brothy for the calories22:12
ricktimmis[m]wxl: elderberry is very good22:12
valorieI have some elderberry trees but the berries have long been in the bird's bellies22:12
wxlout of all the things i have tried, elderberry is the one thing that has been most reliable, not only as a general immune booster prior to getting sick, but also to shorten the length of the illness22:13
ricktimmis[m]I have a few bottles of 2006 wine left22:13
wxlooooooo22:13
wxl"your mother reeks of elderberries"22:13
ricktimmis[m]Lol22:13
wxlaw foo i got the quote wrong didn't i22:13
* wxl needs to watch monty python again22:14
ricktimmis[m]Ah it's good I got it22:14
wxl:)22:14
wxlwait valorie did you say trees? i thought they were more bushy22:17
wxli was thinking about planting some in the spring and have a go at making my own tinctures22:18
ricktimmis[m]They are small trees really, but they grow real fast22:18
ricktimmis[m]Watch out because there are varieties22:19
wxlvarietals that taste bad, don't work as well, take over your whole bloomin yard, or what? :)22:19
valorieI want to cut the ones we have and make them more bushy, yeah22:20
valorieI don't think I planted these22:20
wxlwonder if you can grow them from cuttings22:20
wxlif so maybe i'll have you just bring some over to lfnw :)22:20
valorieor if I did, I got them from the woods22:20
ricktimmis[m]You want the ones that the blossoms smell sweet, and are plentiful22:20
ricktimmis[m]Yes that is what I did22:20
valoriethese have red berries and the birds love them22:21
wxloh did you need to use rooting compound or are they naturally rooty like willows?22:21
ricktimmis[m]Find a really good tree, i.e watch it a couple of years22:21
ricktimmis[m]Then in spring, when the leaves are on, take cuttings22:21
valorieok, elderflower vs elderberry22:22
valorieI have elderberry22:22
ricktimmis[m]They will root in water, but if you add a little rooting hormone, they go well22:22
wxlyeah oh i'm referring to elderberry22:22
wxlyeah elderflower is delicious but i've never used it medicinally22:22
ricktimmis[m]Oh I like to use both22:23
ricktimmis[m]Flowers white wine22:23
wxloh hm maybe i'll plant both :)22:23
ricktimmis[m]Betty's red wine22:23
valorieI've heard of wine from both, yeah22:23
wxlyeah22:23
ricktimmis[m]Berries are the anti-viral22:23
ricktimmis[m]You can do wine, jam, our just juice22:24
wxli have a quince. would be fun to play with mixing it with elderberry and/or elderflower22:24
ricktimmis[m]For medics don't make wine22:24
wxlat least not the sober ones XD22:24
valoriethis is really good!23:02
