| metalbiker | i'm here and ready for the meeting | 01:50 |
|---|---|---|
| nhaines | \o/ | 01:54 |
| nhaines | I have a nice pot of tea ready. Although it remains to be seen if the tea is nice, or just the pot. | 01:54 |
| metalbiker | lol nice!! what kind of tea you got waiting for you? | 01:55 |
| pleia2 | late errands for me again, won't make it for the meeting | 01:56 |
| nhaines | This was a promo from adagio.com. "Teaster marshmallow." | 01:56 |
| nhaines | I thought they'd send a sample, but they sent three ounces, so if it's good I'm all set for a while. If it's not, well.... I donno, lol. | 01:57 |
| metalbiker | awww bummer pleia2!! | 01:57 |
| metalbiker | nhaines: oh nice!! sounds good! let me know what you think and i'll check into getting some as well. | 01:57 |
| nhaines | Green rooibos, apple pieces, candy sprinkles, vanilla creme flavor, marigold flowers, apricots. The candy pieces are like tiny marshmallow peeps, so I hope it'll be good because they're tiny but cute, lol. | 01:58 |
| nhaines | I don't think they have it until next year, but I'll scrounge up a coupon code after the meeting if you want to check it out. :) | 01:58 |
| metalbiker | hmmm!! that's interesting! | 01:58 |
| metalbiker | sure thing! i'm always down with trying out new stuff! | 01:59 |
| metalbiker | thanks! | 01:59 |
| metalbiker | i came across a new tea based on some siberian mushroom. supposed to help with inflammation. | 02:00 |
| metalbiker | sayang or something like that. | 02:00 |
| nhaines | Ooh, interesting. | 02:00 |
| nhaines | Okay, meeting time! | 02:00 |

| nhaines | Welcome to the Ubuntu California meeting for April 8th, 2018! | 02:01 |
| metalbiker | thank you! glad to finally be back! | 02:01 |
| nhaines | Our agenda tonight is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Meetings/18April08 and is currently empty. | 02:01 |
| darthrobot | Title: [CaliforniaTeam/Meetings/18April08 - Ubuntu Wiki] | 02:01 |
| nhaines | #Upcoming events | 02:01 |
| nhaines | Ubuntu 18.04 LTS will be launched on April 26th. | 02:01 |
| nhaines | So it's time to start planning release parties. :) | 02:01 |
| metalbiker | oh yeah! | 02:02 |
| metalbiker | i've been testing kubuntu 18.04 lts and i've had a really great time with it. | 02:03 |
| metalbiker | i love the new kubuntu theme that's included in this release. it's a flatter, minimalistic look. | 02:03 |
| nhaines | I finally upgraded to Ubuntu 18.04 on my laptop. So far so good, but I've been successfully ignoring GNOME Shell so far. :) | 02:04 |
| metalbiker | any particular reason why you're ignoring gnome shell? | 02:05 |
| nhaines | Okay, I think we don't have anything planned right now, but release parties and installfests are great ways to celebrate LTS releases, so start thinking. May is a good time for this, and so is July when 18.04.1 comes out. | 02:05 |
| nhaines | metalbiker: because I disagree with everything GNOME's done for the last six years, and because Unity matches my workflow perfectly. :) | 02:05 |
| nhaines | Credit where credit's due, though. GNOME is being extremely collaborative with Canonical now, and I understand with other downstreams as well. | 02:06 |
| nhaines | #topic Announcements | 02:06 |
| metalbiker | nhaines: oh, gotcha!! i was rather disappointed with all of the issues with gnome and the wayland server and then i grew tired of having so many panels so i tried out kubuntu and was amazed! i love its layout so much more. | 02:06 |
| nhaines | Well, 18.04 isn't going with Wayland by default, so it should be nicer. But KDE is also great. :) | 02:07 |
| nhaines | The Ubuntu Free Culture Showcase has wrapped up and the final wallpapers, video, and music selections have been announced! | 02:07 |
| nhaines | https://www.nhaines.com/blog/2018/04/08/announcing-ubuntu-18.04-lts-free-culture-showcase-winners/ | 02:07 |
| darthrobot | Title: [Announcing the Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Free Culture Showcase winners | nhaines.com] | 02:07 |
| metalbiker | cool! | 02:07 |
| nhaines | Those should start showing up in bionic later this week. | 02:08 |
| nhaines | But definitely before the 26th! ;) | 02:08 |
| metalbiker | oh awesome! hopefully they get over to kubuntu as well. | 02:08 |
| nhaines | The song and video will, but the Kubuntu wallpapers are different. | 02:09 |
| nhaines | But you can run 'apt install ubuntu-wallpapers-bionic' and get them that way. :) | 02:09 |
| nhaines | Or just snag them from Flickr! | 02:09 |
| metalbiker | hey, that's cool with me. | 02:09 |
| metalbiker | noted! i'll make sure to do that and see what comes out! | 02:10 |
| nhaines | Great. :) Any other announcements? | 02:11 |
| metalbiker | not really anything of great value to add here. i've been announcing things on the mailing list more so i don't think i've got anything for now | 02:12 |
| nhaines | Fair enough. :) | 02:12 |
| nhaines | #topic Agenda | 02:12 |
| nhaines | This week's agenda is empty. | 02:12 |
| nhaines | #topic Other business | 02:13 |
| nhaines | Anything else before we wrap the meeting up? | 02:13 |
| metalbiker | nada | 02:13 |
| metalbiker | if anything comes up i'll blast it out over the mailing list | 02:14 |
| metalbiker | lol | 02:14 |
| nhaines | Perfect. :) | 02:14 |
| nhaines | Nothing more from me, either. | 02:14 |
| metalbiker | cool! | 02:14 |
| nhaines | Okay, next meeting is April 22nd, just before I head out to UbuCon Europe in Spain. Which reminds me I need to record more audio promos for them, lol. | 02:15 |
| nhaines | Until then! | 02:15 |
| nhaines | #endmeeting | 02:15 |
| darthrobot | Meeting ended Mon Apr 9 02:15:36 2018 UTC. | 02:15 |
| darthrobot | Minutes: http://ihas.5cat.com/~darthrobot/ubuntu-us-ca/2018/ubuntu-us-ca.2018-04-09-02.00.moin.txt | 02:15 |
| metalbiker | lucky you. getting to go to spain! | 02:16 |
| nhaines | metalbiker: If you like looseleaf tea (well, they have teabags as well), I recommend https://www.adagio.com/ | 02:16 |
| darthrobot | Title: [Buy Loose Leaf Tea Online | Free shipping over $49] | 02:16 |
| nhaines | Here's a $5 gift certificate that allegedly expires in 24 hours (anyone watching can use it too): 5736561446 | 02:16 |
| metalbiker | nhaines: awesome! and i do! i bought a tea diffuser that i'm itching to use! thank you! | 02:17 |
| metalbiker | i'm bookmarking it now | 02:17 |
| nhaines | Haha, this is perfect for that, then. | 02:17 |
| nhaines | Plus you get a discount for spamming your friends on Facebook when you order, and you get a free sample if you let them send a tweet, too (I think it is). So good chances for extras on that first order. | 02:18 |
| metalbiker | i came across this type of preparation in a sushi restaurant where they made some fresh green tea with it for my gf and i and it was good! | 02:18 |
| nhaines | Yeah, store teabags tend to use the trimmings from the loose leaf stuff, and the loose leaf tea can unfurl and do its tea thing. Plus it doesn't taste like paper from the tea bag. | 02:19 |
| metalbiker | hehe i'll shoot some spam to my old friends and see what they do | 02:19 |
| metalbiker | oh i agree!! that japanese green tea we had was the bomb! definitely much different! | 02:19 |
| metalbiker | hey, i wanted to mention something to you. i saw your contribution to ubuntu touch for the voice for uNav i think! i was like, no way??!! my team leader Nathan Haines??!! wow!! | 02:20 |
| metalbiker | or it was just one of the voices available for the system. i was like, dude's everywhere ubuntu!! lol | 02:21 |
| nhaines | Haha, I'm the International English voice and the default for any non-localized locale. | 02:24 |
| nhaines | Promo: https://instaud.io/20t3 | 02:24 |
| darthrobot | Title: [Ubucon - Instaudio] | 02:25 |
| metalbiker | nhaines: lol nice!! is that for ubucon europe? | 02:25 |
| nhaines | Yup! | 02:25 |
| nhaines | I've been saying Xixón wrong for a couple of months, because I've been using the Spanish pronunciation Gijón. But the organizer (and uNav developer) requested the Asturian pronunciation, which he said I nailed, haha. | 02:26 |
| nhaines | I sneak into the first 10 seconds here, too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SN5hTBvjRpU | 02:26 |
| darthrobot | Title: [UbuCon Europe 2016 - Marcos Costales: uNav + Q&A - YouTube] | 02:26 |
| metalbiker | oh very cool! man dude!! you could be a voice actor for commercials, more apps, video games, wow! | 02:27 |
| metalbiker | ok, i hate to run but i'm starting to hurt and i need to get this taken care of. i'll chat with you later. | 02:27 |
| nhaines | Haha, I do the SCALE voice prompts, too. It's not my regular speaking voice, so I can usually sneak under tha radar. | 02:28 |
| metalbiker | scoliosis | 02:28 |
| nhaines | No fun! Yup, time to rest. Thanks for attending tonight. :) | 02:28 |
| metalbiker | you're welcome, boss! i'm glad to be here again! i'll see you on the 22nd if not before. | 02:28 |
| metalbiker | or chat with you rather. | 02:28 |
| metalbiker | lol | 02:28 |
| nhaines | Hmm, this tea, like the lemon merengue green tea, needs sugar to be really good. Which I find ironic in this case. | 02:42 |
