[03:10] <akgraner> Dual Monitors rock! Loving how Precise is just working :-)
[03:16] <cjohnston> heh
[03:17] <akgraner> :-)
[03:18] * mhall119 loves how *fast* precise is working
[03:23] <akgraner> nods now if impress would work I would be happy
[03:24] <akgraner> nothing like getting ready to present and when you hook up the projector your presentation goes away
[03:24] <nigelb> akgraner went from NTEU to being a geek with two monitors!
[03:24] * nigelb runs
[03:25] <akgraner> nigelb, after the weakest geek at SCALE I don't know if I will ever call myself a geek. I think I need therapy now
[03:25] <nigelb> what happened?
[03:25] <akgraner> just ask jcastro abd pleia2 about it - I didn't answer a single question correctly, but I was kinda funny though :-)
[03:26] <pleia2> actually I missed it, exhaustion struck :)
[03:27] <akgraner> for example one of my questions was was - who said - "its a trap" my answer - My husband the day I he proposed.
[03:27] <akgraner> My husband the day he proposed
[03:27] <nigelb> hahahaha
[03:28] <akgraner> I mean I chocked on stage - I couldn't even remember what BSD meant - DOH
[03:28] <akgraner> choked even
[03:28] <akgraner> Dang it - I give up
[03:28] <akgraner> I can't spell a @#$% thing tonight
[03:28] <nigelb> lol
[03:28] <pleia2> the memory of it was so traumatic it causes her to choke upon recalling it :)
[03:29] <akgraner> +1 pleia2
[03:30] <akgraner> I told Gareth that I was sending my therapy bill to SCALE he laughed :-)
[03:31] <nigelb> hahaha
[03:32] <akgraner> Becca's teacher wants to know what technology we have at home...:-/
[03:34] <akgraner> this ought to be fun...Becca just said, "Nooooo you had to use the words Linux and Ubuntu! Seriously, now she is going to want me to explain this to her."
[03:36] <nigelb> hahaha
[03:46] <mhall119> akgraner: lol
[03:47] <mhall119> akgraner: you'd be proud of Michelle, she was at a PTA meeting the other night and one of the teachers said they wanted to have more educational software, but they knew the school couldn't afford it
[03:47] <mhall119> so she put on her FOSS hat :)
[03:47] <pleia2> :D
[03:48] <akgraner> mhall119, nice!
[03:57] <akgraner> hmm the warning box that shows up to say something is wrong and to check for updates failed :-( but updating manually seems to work

[16:13] <dholbach> sweet :-D
[16:21] <cprofitt> dholbach: hey
[16:21] <cprofitt> the 21:30 slot works best for me, but the 21:00 is ok too.
[16:23] <technoviking> dholbach: I just mailed the forums council, could not find any forums staff online in irc.
[16:24] <cprofitt> technoviking: did you try Joeb454?
[16:25] <cjohnston> jcastro: too much email for you?
[16:25] <technoviking> he is away it looks
[16:25] <jcastro> heh, yeah
[16:25] <dholbach> thanks a bunch technoviking
[16:25] <cjohnston> poor jcastro
[16:25] <dholbach> hey cprofitt
[16:25] <cjohnston> jcastro: only a 2300 line code change today
[16:26] <czajkowski> technoviking: hardly recognised you in the pics! KUDOS!
[16:26] <dholbach> cprofitt, I mailed warp10 and you - if you can just resolve it together (I think he said that the original slot for him would probably work too) and let me know if the schedule needs changing, that'd be great
[16:27] * mhall119 hates taking the car to the mechanic
[16:27] <mhall119> this must be what non-computer people feel like when they need their PC repaired :(
[16:27] <technoviking> czajkowski: thanks

[17:05] <daker> HELP, i am going to throw my PC from the window
[17:06] <mhall119> daker: I'm too far away to help you lift it, sorry
[17:24] <daker> mhall119, what are going to lift? a P4 with 512M RAM, i915 and X crashing every 10mins
[17:25] <mhall119> daker: to help you throw it out the window ;)
[17:27] <jcastro> hey daker
[17:27] <jcastro> you see my bug about the AMI browser?
[17:27] <daker> jcastro, yes sir
[17:28] <jcastro> what do you think?
[17:28] <jcastro> also, hey if I wanted to make these changes myself, I could just do a merge proposal right?
[17:29] <daker> jcastro, no :/
[17:29] <daker> the branch is in +junk
[17:29] <jcastro> oh
[17:30] <daker> maintaining becomes hard :/
[17:30] <daker> and deployment too
[17:30] <jcastro> ah bummer
[17:30] <jcastro> yeah, I can't fix deployment yet, that will take a while
[17:30] <jcastro> can you do the change for the AMI browser though? I can push that through.
[17:30] <daker> sure give me 5min
[17:31] <jcastro> hey dholbach
[17:32] <jcastro> We do have an ad for developer week if you want to reuse it: http://meta.askubuntu.com/a/2191/235
[17:33] <dholbach> ah yes, right
[17:33] <dholbach> let me add it
[17:33] <dholbach> thanks jcastro!
[17:34] <jcastro> I made ads for all the IRC workshops
[17:34] <dholbach> nice :)
[17:36] <daker> jcastro, do you want it to be opened in a new window (tab)?
[17:36] <jcastro> nope, just straight up please
[17:39] <daker> jcastro, done https://code.launchpad.net/~daker/%2Bjunk/uecv2/
[17:39] <jcastro> thanks!
[17:39] <jcastro> is there a way we can move that branch to the trunk of the project?
[17:39] <jcastro> that way I can make changes and just submit them to you?
[17:41] <daker> sure will do it later
[17:41] <jcastro> I'll file an RT and just have them pull from here for now
[17:41] * jcastro high fives daker
[17:43] <daker> argh the fan is accelerating again
[17:46] <koolhead17> hi all
[17:46] * dholbach hugs daker
[17:47] <jcastro> RT filed, woo.
[17:51] <dholbach> alright my friends - I call it a day
[17:52] <cjohnston> o/
[17:52] <dholbach> have a great evening
[17:53] <daker> a+
[18:31] <jcastro> dpm: hey so what do we need to do wrt. disqus?
[18:31] <jcastro> or do we just wait for legal?
[18:33] <dpm> jcastro, wait, there was another update yesterday, but it seems jono only CC'd me. It seems sorted out and now the ball is on me to talk to ISD to install it with a few modifications
[18:34] <jcastro> ooh can you fwd me pls?
[18:34] <dpm> jcastro, sure!, give me a min
[18:54] <jcastro> heya mhall119
[18:54] <jcastro> https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-appmenu/+patches
[18:54] <mhall119> hey jcastro
[18:55] <jcastro> I randomly ran into a bug while reporting a hud bug
[18:55] <jcastro> so basically Ted needs to be poked X amount of time on X projects about patches.
[18:55] <mhall119> gould?
[18:55] <jcastro> yes
[18:56] <mhall119> ok
[18:56] <jcastro> 49 weeks and 11 weeks.
[18:56] <mhall119> I'm supposed to have a call this thumber this afternoon about patch pilot again
[18:56] <jcastro> nod
[18:56] <mhall119> woot! still under a year!
[18:56] <jcastro> hah
[18:56] <mhall119> it's only pre-11.04
[18:56] <mhall119> meaning pre-(unity by default)
[18:57] <mhall119> I can only assume the patch won't properly apply to current trunk
[18:57] <jcastro> I'm more worried about two contributions just sitting there this whole time
[18:57] <jcastro> one thing I wish launchpad would do
[18:57] <jcastro> is when someone attaches a patch
[18:58] <jcastro> just make a branch and plop it into the merge queue
[18:58] <jcastro> but until we have magic like that he should be checking the patch view at an interval that is smaller than 11 weeks
[18:59] <jcastro> mhall119: now the question is, how many of unity's components have the same kind of thing?
[18:59] <jcastro> anyway, something to think about it
[18:59] <jcastro> I've already ridiculed Ted, so no need to go there yet.
[19:00] <jcastro> hah, oh man
[19:00] <jcastro> mhall119: are you sitting down?
[19:01] <jcastro> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana/+patches
[19:03] <mhall119> jcastro: ouch
[19:03] <mhall119> I'll bring that up with thumper this afternoon
[19:03] <jcastro> a bunch are probably worthless
[19:03] <mhall119> that's not a 'poke someone' list, that's an institutional problem list
[19:03] <jcastro> yup
[19:03] <jcastro> I can understand preferring merge proposals
[19:04] <mhall119> probably, but worthless patches are usually easy to spot, and should therefore be (gently) refused
[19:04] <jcastro> but that doesn't mean ignore old school patches
[19:04] <mhall119> we could probably do a modified tarmac that would generate MPs
[19:04] <jcastro> if that how a person wants to roll but still contribute then that doesn't mean they deserve an ignore stick, heh
[19:04] <mhall119> I just have to get nigelb_ fired so he has time to make it
[19:04] <jcastro> yeah, anything to make those more visibile would be awesome
[19:05] <jcastro> though I do remember a bug report I filed on having any patch just be made a branch somewhere in LP
[19:05] <mhall119> jcastro: I can probably add "Bugs with patches" to daniel's bug stats graphs
[19:06] <jcastro> nod
[19:12] <technoviking> jcastro: will get back to the phpbb and salt charm if I sorry getting call back to work for emergency:)
[19:13] <jcastro> hey no worries
[19:13] <jcastro> the charm store doesn't freeze like the archive
[19:13] <jcastro> roll at your own pace yo
[19:33] <technoviking> Oracle really harshes my mellow
[19:57] <mhall119> jcastro: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-appmenu/+patches
[19:58] <jcastro> woo! one down!
[20:02] <mhall119> 2 down
[20:02] <mhall119> one won't fix, one fix committed
[21:43] <koolhead17> http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-16731071 I think everyone is aware of this Ubuntu in BBC story :)
[21:47] <mhall119> koolhead17: first I've seen it, thanks for posting
[21:48] <koolhead17> mhall119: The changes were revealed on a blog posted by Mark Shuttleworth, the lead designer at Canonical - the London-based firm behind Ubuntu.
[21:48] <koolhead17> seems like some typo there
[21:49] <popey> oooo
[21:49] <mhall119> aw, mark was demoted? poor guy
[21:49] <koolhead17> mhall119: :P
[21:50] <koolhead17> someone should contact the guys and get it fixed!! :P
[21:50] <cjohnston> Well.. Is that not one of the many things that fall under sabdfl
[21:51] <popey> yup
[21:52] <popey> Product Strategist is his actual job title
