[07:52] ricktimmis[m]: in riot, can search the freenode channels in the gui. dunno about other guis [08:16] Morning acheronuk thanks, good tip. I think it's pretty good, I like it so far [08:16] Going to install it on my phone later [08:17] Currently it's on my tablet [08:17] I want to try to use it for the next kafe [08:17] at the moment I use IRC through a PC which is nearly always on, and have a KDE BNC, so it's just interesting backup for me [08:18] still cool though [08:18] See I move around allot during the day, home, w work, mobile etch... [08:27] yeah, if telegram did not do enough, I might need to for that. at the moment TG is on the core stuff I want [08:28] the rest of IRC is too much noise when not at the PC [17:37] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases shows 17.04 EOL in January. Do we consider it 2018-01-01, 2018-01-31, or 2018-01-13 (the nine-month anniversary)? [17:38] judging by past releases, um, january sometime XD [17:38] actually maybe doing a little date math might reveal the answer [17:43] yeah can't figure it out with e.g. yakkety [17:43] +wxl@standard-desktop:~$ date -d "October 13 2016 +9 months" [17:43] Thu Jul 13 00:00:00 PDT 2017 [17:43] +wxl@standard-desktop:~$ date -d "October 13 2016 +270 days" [17:43] Mon Jul 10 00:00:00 PDT 2017 [17:43] neither of those are the 20th [17:44] that also follows for wily [17:44] i think it's basically like "when we get to it" [17:44] Great idea. Libre Office says it is not an exact number of days either: https://paste.ubuntu.com/26279574/ [17:47] which is why i used months instead of days but obviously that doesn't work out and given that the 13th doesn't become the 13th, i guess that's fairly obvious [17:48] if you want a definitive answer as to the factors leading to the decision and the announcement thereof, i'd suggest contacting the release team. infinity or slangasek should know [17:53] No worries. It was a quiet day, and I guess I won't delete my 17.04 VM for a couple of weeks yet. [17:54] :) [21:38] btw if I didn't mention it before; I'll be leaving in an hour or so for our cabin in the mountains for the new year's party annual event -- be back Monday sometimes [21:38] -s [21:39] matrix on this chan might work, and telegram sorta works sometimes [21:39] happy new year, everyone@ [21:39] valorie: ok. have a lovely new year [21:40] would be lovely to have each of you up there with us celebrating! [21:40] it would. sounds fantastic [21:40] it is amazing [21:41] right outside Mt Rainier Nat. Park [21:41] my parents and 3 other families built it from the 50s on [21:42] used to be quite raucous and full of drunks [21:42] these days full of families and much less drinking and more board games [21:42] playing in the snow is the constant [21:44] sounds great! [21:44] perfect for this time of year [21:44] or any really [21:45] yes [21:45] Happy new year valorie :) [21:45] I like it in good weather and bad [21:45] Before you go valorie, I'm thinking of going to SELF [21:45] thanks simon! same to you, and drive safely! [21:45] So I'll probably apply for funding soon [21:45] ooooo [21:45] nice [21:46] tsimonq2: where are you staying during lfnw? [21:46] @valorie, I will, thanks :) [21:46] I forgot to ask [21:46] @valorie, Same hotel at last year but with @Schyken, he already reserved the room [21:47] I got him to agree to drive up from Tucson! [21:47] oh cool [21:47] wow [21:47] that's at least 2 days drive! [21:47] although I'd late a week, and enjoy it [21:47] he might not have the time [21:47] We'll have to see how long it takes :) [21:48] But yeah for SELF I don't know where I'll he staying yet [21:48] I'm talking to @Kernellinux (my boss at Altispeed) to see what his plans are [21:48] awesome [21:50] @ahoneybun if you're going to SELF 2018, wanna roomshare? [21:50] Mm if I'm going [21:51] Alright [21:52] Like I said, I wanna apply for funding within the next week or two so I have a good chance of getting it [21:57] Speaking of LFNW valorie I've had more and more weird cravings lately for your cold brewed coffee [21:58] Next time I'll put some sugar in in but I did enjoy it [21:58] it is lovely [21:59] lately with a bit of eggnog, but that will be long gone when you arrive [21:59] Oooh [21:59] Too bad I have to miss out on it :( [22:04] well, the coffee will be there, just not the eggnog [22:04] ok, gonna go pack for the weekend [22:04] talk to you all next year [22:05] Have fun!
