| jrwren | rick_h_: you are on ubuntu server team now? | 17:19 |
| rick_h_ | jrwren: at end of cycle | 17:21 |
| rick_h_ | jrwren: moving from Juju to Ubuntu Server team manager | 17:22 |
| cmaloney | just posted to the Discuss list. | 17:22 |
| rick_h_ | <3 ty | 17:22 |
| cmaloney | yw | 17:23 |
| jrwren | rick_h_: congrats! Sounds like a fun move. | 17:23 |
| rick_h_ | jrwren: yea, eager to get to a bit more uncomfy spot and learn/play with server stuff again more | 17:23 |
| cmaloney | Seems like more of a core technology move. :) | 17:23 |
| rick_h_ | yea, and back into python running cloud-init, curtain, and the ua client python projects | 17:24 |
| rick_h_ | less golang :) | 17:24 |
| cmaloney | jrwren should apply. ;) | 17:24 |
| rick_h_ | but a lot more launchpad and packaging | 17:24 |
| _stink_ | haha, was just about to mention jrwren :D | 17:24 |
| rick_h_ | can't have it all | 17:25 |
| rick_h_ | hah, jrwren can suggest rewriting it all in rust :P | 17:25 |
| cmaloney | I'm surprised Launchpad hasn't had at least a minor facelift | 17:25 |
| jrwren | if I were looking, I'd consider it. I still love ubuntu server. | 17:25 |
| cmaloney | Nah, that's my suggestion | 17:25 |
| jrwren | we are moving to it at work. YAY! | 17:25 |
| rick_h_ | awesome! | 17:25 |
| cmaloney | from CentOS? | 17:25 |
| jrwren | from arch. | 17:25 |
| cmaloney | JFC | 17:26 |
| rick_h_ | heh, there are folks working on launchpad again (small team) | 17:26 |
| jrwren | can you imagine... | 17:26 |
| jrwren | right? | 17:26 |
| cmaloney | no | 17:26 |
| jrwren | trying to run and operate a stable system on top of a rolling release distro? | 17:26 |
| rick_h_ | wow, I miss arch on my laptop days but not sure about for real servers/cloud | 17:26 |
| rick_h_ | how bout them snaps :P | 17:26 |
| jrwren | they removed all their python2... we still have a ton on python2. LOL | 17:26 |
| cmaloney | arch: All the stability of a loaded gun on a wobbly table. | 17:26 |
| jrwren | rick_h_: LOL. | 17:26 |
| cmaloney | God, snaps | 17:26 |
| rick_h_ | snaps on top of arch ftw! :P | 17:26 |
| * cmaloney deletes application | 17:26 | |
| cmaloney | I forgot about snaps | 17:27 |
| rick_h_ | I love snaps for client apps | 17:27 |
| cmaloney | ^ proprietary client apps | 17:27 |
| cmaloney | I'll give you that | 17:27 |
| rick_h_ | but find it funny that I might get behind them for "stable-ish" server apps on something like arch ll | 17:27 |
| rick_h_ | meh, even for open source ones. I'd rather snaps that can be confined than debs from random ppa | 17:28 |
| cmaloney | I don't see the arch crew really adopting snaps | 17:28 |
| cmaloney | true | 17:28 |
| cmaloney | random ppa with pre-packaged python really makes me nervous sometimes | 17:28 |
| cmaloney | (blender) | 17:28 |
| cmaloney | I got an electric mower today. :) | 17:29 |
| cmaloney | Roybi 20" 3rd generation 6ah behemoth | 17:29 |
| cmaloney | now I might actually look forward to mowing for a sell | 17:29 |
| cmaloney | spell | 17:29 |
| rick_h_ | hah, nice | 17:29 |
| cmaloney | One less gas appliance in the house | 17:30 |
| * cmaloney hates gas | 17:30 | |
| jrwren | flatpacks give more control to teh end user. | 17:31 |
| jrwren | i'm rooting for flatpacks over snaps. | 17:31 |
| cmaloney | appimage. ;) | 17:32 |
| jrwren | what's that? | 17:32 |
| jrwren | battery mower or corded? | 17:32 |
| cmaloney | https://appimage.org/ | 17:32 |
| cmaloney | Battery mower | 17:32 |
| jrwren | I like my battery mower. | 17:32 |
| cmaloney | I have a corded snowblower, which is awesome | 17:32 |
| cmaloney | <3 | 17:33 |
| cmaloney | Makes perfect sense for our lot | 17:33 |
| rick_h_ | ugh, I really want a dual stage but can't justify the space they take up | 17:33 |
| jrwren | what's that? | 17:33 |
| rick_h_ | I tried electric for a power washer and hated it. I'm burning gas | 17:33 |
| rick_h_ | 2-stage snow thrower? | 17:33 |
| jrwren | oh. | 17:33 |
| jrwren | i dont' know anything about snow throwers or powerwashers :) | 17:33 |
| rick_h_ | sorry, should have said 2-stage vs dual stage | 17:34 |
| cmaloney | Only downside is it's a little small if we really get whalloped | 17:34 |
| rick_h_ | heh, well I grew my driveway a couple of years ago now so have no shame, though I never used it this winter it was so mild and only shoveled | 17:34 |
| cmaloney | but that just means more trips outside | 17:34 |
| cmaloney | Yeah, I try to do more shoveling if I can | 17:34 |
| rick_h_ | I got a new plastic snow pusher that was awesome this winter | 17:35 |
| rick_h_ | https://amzn.to/2WIaFnY | 17:36 |
| rick_h_ | really light weight and worked great in the mild winter we had | 17:36 |
| cmaloney | rick_h_: here you go: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Ariens-Power-Brush-28-28-in-177-cc-Two-Stage-Self-Propelled-Gas-Snow-Blower-with-Push-Button-Electric-Start/1000373259 | 17:36 |
| cmaloney | Heh, I think those are what the landscrapers use on the house across the street | 17:37 |
| rick_h_ | hah ouchy that's a brute there | 17:38 |
| cmaloney | sweepy sweepy | 17:40 |
| rick_h_ | yea, probably nicer/cleaner than my snow blower but the shoveling does pretty good as long as you keep up on it and don't leave things to melt/ice chunk | 17:41 |
| jrwren | i shovel my driveway in less than 10 minutes most of hte time. | 17:42 |
| cmaloney | Yeah, that was my main issue this winter | 17:42 |
| jrwren | although once this year it was HEAVY snow and it took a lot longer. | 17:42 |
| jrwren | wow, 36" wide... that is great for the light snows. | 17:43 |
| rick_h_ | yea, just push it and it's run by each way | 17:44 |
| rick_h_ | much faster | 17:44 |
| cmaloney | BTW: CHC is online tomorrow | 17:52 |
| cmaloney | If y'all want to come. https://gettogether.community/events/4809/coffee-house-coders-regular-meeting/ | 17:53 |
| rick_h_ | yea, I'll try to make it. I put it on the calendar | 17:54 |
| cmaloney | Sweet! | 17:55 |
| mrgoodcat | i can't come this week unfortunately | 18:11 |
| mrgoodcat | have a remote workshop with people in all sorts of timezones | 18:11 |
| cmaloney | No worries. If it lets out early feel free to just pop in | 18:11 |
| cmaloney | Trying to just keep some consistency in the week and be there for folks who need it | 18:12 |
| mrgoodcat | technically i should be done in time, but then I have dinner and whatnot | 18:16 |
| cmaloney | dinner. Feh | 18:28 |
| rick_h_ | over rated! | 18:35 |
