| Wild_Man | krytarik, is it okay with you if some of the links from the blogs are added to other news to fill in the gaps a bit? | 00:23 |
|---|---|---|
| krytarik | Well, not if they are from news blogs. | 00:26 |
| Wild_Man | for example omgubuntu | 00:28 |
| Wild_Man | does that qualify as a news blog? | 00:29 |
| krytarik | Yeah, that's exactly the type I had in mind here. | 00:30 |
| Wild_Man | okay thanks, I will move it then | 00:31 |
| krytarik | Also, it makes no sense to move posts to other sections they don't really fit in, just because that section is little used while the one they do fit in is overused - then I'd rather try and decide which posts in the latter are the most relevant. | 00:35 |
| krytarik | Like I've already dropped some earlier today for this reason. | 00:36 |
| lotuspsychje | krytarik Wild_Man i found uwn newsletter rss feeds on fridge, tnx to guiverc hint | 03:20 |
| krytarik | Yeah, I'm using that for years already myself too. >_> | 03:21 |
| lotuspsychje | perhaps an idea to add few ubuntu feeds to a news rss in here? | 03:22 |
| lotuspsychje | so you guys can easyly find articles? | 03:22 |
| krytarik | Well, if you mean broaden our spectrum a little - sure, if you got any suggestions. | 03:23 |
| lotuspsychje | krytarik: lets say you run a limnoria bot here, you can add rss plugin, then announce news here | 03:24 |
| lotuspsychje | like, insights, usn,fridge,etc | 03:24 |
| krytarik | Eww, that'd be a little much.. O_o | 03:24 |
| lotuspsychje | yeah its a bit spammy indeed | 03:25 |
| lotuspsychje | krytarik: the idea was i talked with bashing-om and Wild_Man about, is i added !fridge to my rss announce in channel, so users get back to know UWN, more users=more joy=more interest | 03:29 |
| krytarik | http://people.ubuntu.com/~tsimonq2/paulw2u_feedlist.opml - this is what we are more or less subscribed to individually currently btw. | 03:30 |
| lotuspsychje | so now every new issue, gets to announce :p | 03:30 |
| lotuspsychje | krytarik: nice list | 03:31 |
| lotuspsychje | these are ours: | 03:31 |
| krytarik | Where are you running said bot btw? | 03:31 |
| lotuspsychje | <[MARVIN]> lotuspsychje: add, anandtech, announce add, announce list, announce remove, arstechnica, engadget, fridge, gizmodo, info, insights, kodi, linuxjournal, lxer, macrumours, omgubuntu, packetstorm, phoronix, remove, rss, snaps, softpedia, trailers, ubports, and usn | 03:31 |
| krytarik | Yep, that'll be similarly spammy indeed. :P | 03:32 |
| lotuspsychje | krytarik: well we dont have them all announced | 03:32 |
| lotuspsychje | most of them we use manual trigger | 03:33 |
| lotuspsychje | but i like the idea of a seperate channel for rss spam i dont mind :p | 03:33 |
| lotuspsychje | check your invite krytarik | 03:33 |
| krytarik | Yep, did. :P | 03:34 |
| Bashing-om | seen this : http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1522 ? sabdfl scam alert . | 19:12 |
| leftyfb | "you are most likely being targeted by fraudsters" ... as in, there's a small possibility you're being contacted by Mark about a make-money-fast story that refers to him and crypto-currency? :) | 19:15 |
| Bashing-om | leftyfb: Uh Huh .. will be old when we publish .. Not worth the effort to include ? | 19:16 |
| leftyfb | it was posted 2 hours ago | 19:17 |
| leftyfb | when will we next publish? | 19:17 |
| Bashing-om | leftyfb: But we do not issue UWN for 3 more days . | 19:17 |
| leftyfb | maybe things like this might need a post to twitter instead? or a RT if he's got one out there. That's my opinion. | 19:18 |
| Bashing-om | leftyfb: Our release target is Monday eve . | 19:18 |
| Bashing-om | leftyfb: Wildman handles PR. not on at this time; Will see what he thinks when he appears . | 19:19 |
| Wild_Man | bashfulrobot, how are you doing? | 21:32 |
| Wild_Man | sorry I meant bashing-om | 21:33 |
| bashfulrobot | Wild_Man: hey, how goes? | 21:34 |
| bashfulrobot | Ah, ok. Np | 21:34 |
| wxl | <bashfulrobot> what, me? you want meeeee??????????? | 21:35 |
| wxl | <Wild_Man> no, actually | 21:35 |
| wxl | <bashfulrobot> : | 21:35 |
| wxl | ''''''''''''''( | 21:35 |
| bashfulrobot | wxl: always man. | 21:35 |
| Wild_Man | bashfulrobot, good and you? | 21:35 |
| wxl | it's ok, i still like you bashfulrobot :) | 21:35 |
| bashfulrobot | Wild_Man: not bad | 21:35 |
| bashfulrobot | wxl: good. I was stressed there for a second | 21:36 |
| wxl | hahahahah | 21:36 |
| Wild_Man | that is good, I am not use to someone with bash in there name other then bashing-om so tab fail | 21:36 |
| bashfulrobot | wxl: maybe even a tear | 21:36 |
| Wild_Man | Hi wxl | 21:36 |
| bashfulrobot | Haha. It happens | 21:36 |
| wxl | hey Wild_Man | 21:36 |
| Wild_Man | Indeed | 21:36 |
| Wild_Man | Bashing-om, Hello, I tweeted about the scam alert but I did it from the forums account because uwn account is really only for posting when the letter has been published | 22:42 |
| Wild_Man | I hope you are doing okay! | 22:43 |
| krytarik | Well, like I said recently, we can also use the social media outlets when there are other news that we also post to the Fridge - but yeah, in this case it doesn't apply either, so.. | 22:46 |
| Wild_Man | I did not think it applied and I still thought is should be posted | 22:47 |
| Wild_Man | I posted it to the forum under announcements, I can not remember the last time something was posted in that forum, there is no old thread in that forum at all | 22:48 |
| krytarik | lol | 22:49 |
| Wild_Man | I guess they have all been archived | 22:49 |
| Wild_Man | krytarik, you think we can use this and where to place it https://www.networkworld.com/article/3269587/linux/customizing-your-text-colors-on-the-linux-command-line.html | 22:55 |
| krytarik | In the forums post, I would link to the actual blog entry page (https://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/1522) and drop the trailing colon off the title. | 22:58 |
| krytarik | And looking.. | 22:58 |
| krytarik | Well, that's a how-to, and we don't post about how-to's. | 22:59 |
| Wild_Man | I wondered if we did or not since I have not seen any | 23:01 |
| Wild_Man | Made the changes to the forum post | 23:01 |
| Wild_Man | Thanks | 23:02 |
| krytarik | Sure. | 23:02 |
