Canada did not gain full independence from the UK until 1982? <JonathanD> slackers. <ssweeny> this is the anniversary of when they first asked politely to be independent <ChinnoDog> lol <ChinnoDog> I guess Canadians don't make good rebels. <ssweeny> in 1982 they added the cherry on top to the please and won over the british royalty <JonathanD> "Excuse me sir, but could we please be independant? No... Ok, thanks. Can I get you something to drink? Some tea perhaps?" <JonathanD> pleia2: have you seen my awesome copy of the philly inq? <pleia2> Dossy: nope <pleia2> err JonathanD <JonathanD> heh :) <pleia2> wow, that's some serious tab fail <pleia2> hi Dossy! <JonathanD> pleia2: http://www.flickr.com/photos/47445571@N07/5890939184/in/photostream <PennBot> Title: Axis Crimes! | Flickr - Photo Sharing!

It's about to sell <ChinnoDog> The meal probably comes with the newfangled grey goo called "margarine" * pleia2 nods <JonathanD> ChinnoDog: yes, books of them. <JonathanD> each book has a name on it. <andrew> JonathanD: I saw "Axis Crimes" and thought it was a gallery of crimes you caught on Axis cameras <InHisName> That could have some collectable value, pleia2 <JonathanD> andrew: I'll make the other pages available, probably tuesday. <JonathanD> I want to scan them, but safely. <JonathanD> The print is in excellent condition but the paper itself is somewhat fragile. <ChinnoDog> JonathanD: I wonder if those meal coupons are worth anything to anyone <JonathanD> ChinnoDog: nto sure who would want them. <ChinnoDog> I think I am in the dark on today's xkcd <ChinnoDog> Would someone care to enlighten me? <JonathanD> I... can't... <JonathanD> ChinnoDog: I'll stand over here with you, until someone who can comes along. <pleia2> yeah, I have no idea <JonathanD> I think it's a pun on the de-evolution of the language... or something... <JonathanD> sorry xkcd, you lost me this time. <andrew> You're too old for it <andrew> JonathanD: did you see the recent blag post on xkcd? <JonathanD> no <JonathanD> yes <pleia2> sad <JonathanD> indeed. #ubuntu-us-pa 2011-07-02 <JonathanD> Morning. <rmg51> morning JonathanD <JonathanD> you're late. <JonathanD> Everyone come to the yard sale. <JonathanD> kthx. <rmg51> just got back from shopping <JonathanD> I will throw in a FREE bottle of water with any purchase over $100 <rmg51> all used computer stuff? <JonathanD> no <JonathanD> although I could bring some, I suppose. <JonathanD> it's my grandmothers stuff. <JonathanD> did you see the thing I posted yesterday? <rmg51> yep <waltman> is the yard sale at your place? <InHisName> I click terminal button in Unity and the same term is where I go.

If I think of it, I'll try on the train. <waltman> Right, but HOW do I SASL? <ChinnoDog> ssweeny: that is a funny picture. I like it. <ssweeny> indeed <ChinnoDog> ssweeny: Maybe if we made cameras operable without thumbs people could leave them at home and lolcats would make themselves. <ssweeny> ChinnoDog, i rarely use my thumbs to operate my camera <ChinnoDog> You use them to hold your camera <ssweeny> sometimes <ssweeny> but never to operate it <JonathanD> I would really like to do something cool with my axis <JonathanD> clearly lolcats are the right thing to do? <ChinnoDog> JonathanD: sadly, it seems so <JonathanD> ok <ChinnoDog> IKEA furniture is so darn efficient <ChinnoDog> Whenever I move I look at other furniture but then go back to IKEA because the other stuff is too expensive and not functional enough <ChinnoDog> pleia2: plugged in again? <pleia2> mhmm <waltman> pleia2! <waltman> Did you have fun at $undisclosed_location? <pleia2> waltman: yes :) we went up to sonoma county <waltman> yay! <waltman> pleia2: congrats! <pleia2> thanks :D! <andrew> pleia2: darn, waltman beat me <andrew> pleia2: congrats! <pleia2> thanks :) #ubuntu-us-pa 2011-07-06 * ChinnoDog yawns <rmg51> must be past ChinnoDog bed time ;-) <rmg51> or at least getting close <ChinnoDog> ha.

(at www.flickr.com) <JonathanD> later <rmg51> I'm just getting ready to go shopping <rmg51> I don't like shopping in crowds :P <TheEvilPhoenix> so out of curiosity what ever happened in terms of the meeting regarding reupping the loco? <ChinnoDog> You are in charge now. <TheEvilPhoenix> the hell i am <ChinnoDog> Its funny that everyone finds that to be bad news. <TheEvilPhoenix> personally <TheEvilPhoenix> i could care less if i'm in charge <TheEvilPhoenix> but everyone else would care <ChinnoDog> TheEvilPhoenix for president. All for? <ChinnoDog> o/ <pleia2> you're in DC, you don't get a vote <ChinnoDog> If votes are limited to people in PA there won't be any zstrickland@example.net. <TheEvilPhoenix> except maybe mine <TheEvilPhoenix> and perhaps we should make my vote count for a thousand because i am at PA's capitol 5/7 days a week <TheEvilPhoenix> 5 out of 7 * <JonathanD> I think you only get 5/7ths of a vote, actually. <TheEvilPhoenix> heh <JonathanD> or is it 2/7ths... <TheEvilPhoenix> considering I live in Pennsylvania anyways <TheEvilPhoenix> doesnt matter :P <TheEvilPhoenix> i'm ALWAYS in Pennsylvania <TheEvilPhoenix> XD #ubuntu-us-pa 2011-07-10 <ChinnoDog> See, you are in charge by default <pleia2> TheEvilPhoenix: regarding the meeting - no one replied on list to the email so nothing has happened yet <TheEvilPhoenix> oic <TheEvilPhoenix> i couldnt reply <TheEvilPhoenix> because this system imploded x] <TheEvilPhoenix> its back up and working... but *shrugs* <TheEvilPhoenix> i'm definitely hating on Unity <pleia2> well you can reply at any time :) <pleia2> the lack of replies is kinda endemic of the problem, there are plenty of folks in the state who will *come* to events (there were lots of successful ones in the philly area over the years) but not many people willing to organize and plan things <pleia2> a bunch of us active people moved away :( <TheEvilPhoenix> mhm <TheEvilPhoenix> i think there's not much call for the LoCo anymore... nobody can organize events :/ <JonathanD> I'm active! <TheEvilPhoenix> but that's just my opinion <TheEvilPhoenix> :P <pleia2> JonathanD: have time to plan more events? :) <TheEvilPhoenix> ^ that <JonathanD> pleia2: thats pretty much all I do, isn't it? <pleia2> JonathanD: seems like <JonathanD> it's my calling. <pleia2> I'm going to work in the fact that this team is leaderless to my fosscon keynote ;) <JonathanD> Or so I like to think. <JonathanD> pleia2: good plan. <TheEvilPhoenix> give the leader job to JonathanD <JonathanD> hey now :P <TheEvilPhoenix> or someone who lives in PA :P <pleia2> "an example of where we need volunteers is right here in pa...." <pleia2> :) <TheEvilPhoenix> :P <JonathanD> I like making events happen. <JonathanD> I don't know about "leader job" <TheEvilPhoenix> SO MAKE EVENTS HAPPEN <JonathanD> Ok! <TheEvilPhoenix> preferably out near Harrisburg :P <JonathanD> tell me what you need? <waltman> oh darn, wasn't blobfest today? <JonathanD> Yes. <JonathanD> the italian festival in phoenixville too <TheEvilPhoenix> you know what I think <TheEvilPhoenix> i think we need to arrange for some kind of FOSS awareness day <TheEvilPhoenix> in PA <ChinnoDog> Why does the leader have to live in PA? The calendar is sparse enough that even people who live out of state attend as much as people in state. <pleia2> software freedom day is good for that <pleia2> ChinnoDog: why so negative? :( <TheEvilPhoenix> because he knows i'm right <TheEvilPhoenix> :P <ChinnoDog> I'm not negative! <waltman> phoenixville had an italian festival the same day as blogfest? <ChinnoDog> If someone wants to step up to the plate that isn't in PA and it gets going again then someone closer will have to do it <pleia2> you can nom italian foods while blobbing :d <pleia2> ChinnoDog: if someone isn't in PA they should be working in their own state, it's not really fair for someone outside the state to be running things <waltman> I had a Wawa Hoagiefest meatball shorti for dinner tonight. Does that count? <TheEvilPhoenix> pleia2: when's software freedom day? <pleia2> TheEvilPhoenix: mid september <ChinnoDog> No leader > outsourced leader? <TheEvilPhoenix> specific dates? <pleia2> http://softwarefreedomday.org/ has all details <PennBot> Title: Software Freedom Day - SFD Home (at softwarefreedomday.org) <TheEvilPhoenix> because i might be at Penn State Harrisburg that day and might be able to rally a bunch of compsci students to hold a FOSS Awareness Day in Harrisburg :P <pleia2> they will even send you stuff if you plan an event :) <pleia2> cool <pleia2> ChinnoDog: yes, it gives someone in state the opportunity to become leader if they come along <TheEvilPhoenix> oh wait you said september <TheEvilPhoenix> then definitely :P <pleia2> who actually lives there <TheEvilPhoenix> well if it werent for all the duties of being horridly active, i'd be leader... but i am not active enough :P <ChinnoDog> pleia2: this is only an "opportunity" if someone wants to do it <pleia2> no, the opportunity exists no matter whether someone wants it or not :P <pleia2> and the opportunity doesn't exist if someone else is doing the job <JonathanD> TheEvilPhoenix: are you coming to fosscon? <TheEvilPhoenix> JonathanD: where's it located? <TheEvilPhoenix> i might be able to take a day off work :P <TheEvilPhoenix> and when? <JonathanD> Philly, saturday 23rd <ChinnoDog> pleia2: it does if they can be usurped at any time by someone more qualified, i.e. living in state <pleia2> ChinnoDog: so are you volunteering to run it from DC? :P <TheEvilPhoenix> JonathanD: wish i were... but i'll be in Pittsburgh that weekend <ChinnoDog> pleia2: maybe! <pleia2> ChinnoDog: you wouldn't even run it when you lived in PA! <pleia2> I tried :) <TheEvilPhoenix> JonathanD: if i can get out of some obligations, though, i'll see what I can do <TheEvilPhoenix> but *shrugs* <JonathanD> do eet <TheEvilPhoenix> JonathanD: easier said than done :P <JonathanD> meh :p <JonathanD> Sometimes stuff just has to be done, no matter how hard it seems ;) <JonathanD> This is one of those times. <TheEvilPhoenix> tell that to my employer, the state government :P <JonathanD> Ok. <JonathanD> In Harrisburg? <JonathanD> Which dept? <TheEvilPhoenix> you can tell the Secretary of "We don't actually care what the public thinks" located at <undisclosed coordinates> <JonathanD> I've worked with quite a few of em. <MutantTurkey> still gotta get my old irssi rc back... <MutantTurkey> jedijf: nice link you sent out. linux is even on the browser... where will it go next? hah. <JonathanD> Morning PA <rmg51> morning JonathanD <JonathanD> Morning rmg51 <SamuraiAlba> good bacon to all! <JonathanD> hi SamuraiAlba <SamuraiAlba> hihi <SamuraiAlba> Gonna try to go to the next LUG <rmg51> I'm back <SamuraiAlba> I'm front * SamuraiAlba shimmies across the dance floor <rmg51> :P #ubuntu-us-pa 2011-07-11 <JonathanD> Morning <InHisName> No fair, I was up early to say Morning first and you beat me anyway, JonathanD <JonathanD> hehe :) <JonathanD> InHisName: good try, anyway ;) <rmg51> worse, JonathanD is up to his old tricks and kicked me out before he said good morning :P <JonathanD> heh :P <JonathanD> Morning rmg51 <rmg51> anyhow..... morning JonathanD <InHisName> Kicking people while they're still sleeping....... now that's getting LOW <rmg51> the second time was while I was awake :-/ <JonathanD> darn. <rmg51> and just long enough to say good morning without getting a response from me :'( <JonathanD> all part of the plan <JonathanD> muhahahhahaha <JonathanD> I need someone to talk about ubuntu zstrickland@example.net. <JonathanD> Just for a few minutes. <rmg51> that's JonathanD way of letting some one other then me be the first to respond <SamuraiAlba> good bacon to all! <JonathanD> morning SamuraiAlba <InHisName> How about an open source bacon talk ? <SamuraiAlba> OSB? <SamuraiAlba> nice <SamuraiAlba> I need to find a new place to live by the 31st. This SUCKS ASS <JonathanD> yes, open source bacon. <JonathanD> start the openbacon project <ChinnoDog> I found a new place to live. Not having furniture sucks pretty badly too. <JonathanD> erm <JonathanD> how am I here. * JonathanD has no dns <JonathanD> thats how <InHisName> Need furniture in DC, ChinnoDog ? I had several friends check classified for "garage" sales at the Watergate. <InHisName> Seems they found gov't execs. assigned to Europe or other parts and they needed to dump their furniture at end of garage sale. He got a 20K liv rm group for $600 if he could haul it out in 1 hour. He did. <SamuraiAlba> gonna get arrested, today <SamuraiAlba> My aunt just trashed my grandmothers house. <SamuraiAlba> DRUNK <SamuraiAlba> I'm going there to deal with her. <JonathanD> oh dear... <SamuraiAlba> afk <JonathanD> updated fosscon speaker list here: http://fosscon.org/speakers <PennBot> Title: FOSSCON - Free and Open Source Software Conferencespeakers Â« Fosscon (at fosscon.org) <SamuraiAlba> Back <SamuraiAlba> As much as I WANTED to go down there, grammie said she was calling the police and will call AGAIN if I come down there in a rage <SamuraiAlba> the Athlon 7750 BE system got SMASHED by my aunt, claiming my uncle was using it to set up dates to cheat on her. <SamuraiAlba> She even smashed the monitor... <SamuraiAlba> *sigh* <SamuraiAlba> 1920x1080 progressive... <waltman> classy <BeckySanderlin_x> venting <BeckySanderlin_x> gotta get that anger out <SamuraiAlba> Hiya, Beckers! * BeckySanderlin_x waves <SamuraiAlba> And I'm single now, too LOL <waltman> Not having furniture does make it easier to move, though :) <BeckySanderlin_x> being single is where its at SamuraiAlba <SamuraiAlba> really? How so, Becky? <jthan> erstazi: thanks again <SamuraiAlba> Will be going to Fosscon :) <SamuraiAlba> Son ticked me off with his antics, so he's grounded <InHisName> SamuraiAlba: you have a kid? Is a little tyke ? <SamuraiAlba> 13 this 23rd <waltman> Force him to come to fosscon! <jthan> Is it normal to have some bad blocks on a drive? I have never actually seen a "clean" badblocks test <waltman> yes <waltman> My impression is that there are so many blocks on modern drives that it's cheaper and easier to accept that there will be some small number of bad blocks and just map over them. <jthan> That's kinda the way I figured. <InHisName> It's been that way from the very begining, jthan. I had 60Meg disk from '89, used special way to reformat to 83Mb and there were 2.5x the bad blocks as when 60Megs. 7 sectors vs 17 sectors. There used to be tools to 'repair' those bad blocks but when the price fell below $10/Meg, it became less bothersome to just forever skip the bad stuff even if fixable. <jthan> It really does make sense. <andrew> yikes, "$10/Meg" <andrew> hrm.. that would make one click of the shutter of my camera cost ~$150 <SamuraiAlba> Gonna make him go to Fosscon :) <waltman> that'll teach him! <InHisName> Is he a tech-no-weenie ? Or is that a turn off for him? <JonathanD> SamuraiAlba: you do that :) <erstazi> jthan: no problem, just like the status so it gets more people to view it <ChinnoDog> hi x_hochiBisjeK <JonathanD> fosscon! <x_hochiBisjeK> hallo ChinnoDog , how are u <TheEvilPhoenix> *explodes as he enters* <TheEvilPhoenix> sup people <x_hochiBisjeK> sup TheEvilPhoenix <TheEvilPhoenix> oh not much <TheEvilPhoenix> just trying to beat Windows with rm -rf <TheEvilPhoenix> but failing #ubuntu-us-pa 2011-07-12 <JonathanD> Morning. <rmg51> morning JonathanD <JonathanD> Morning rmg51 <rmg51> o/ <JonathanD> 11 days. <rmg51> will have to continue to think about it <JonathanD> sponsors and speakers updated. <rmg51> JonathanD, your starting to sound like a bot :P <JonathanD> You will be assimilated. <rmg51> best reason to stay far, far away from you :-/ <InHisName> Without self appointed promoters where would fosscon be ? <rmg51> in your backyard? :-D <JonathanD> rmg51: I can't help but get a little excited this close in :) <rmg51> hug a teddy bear maybe that will calm you down a little <JonathanD> If only I had one... <rmg51> Christmas is coming :-[ <rmg51> maybe even a birthday? <JonathanD> Birthday is after christmas <rmg51> that's still two chances <InHisName> there's always taking your master card to build-a-bear store and get your own bear. <rmg51> or any good toy store <InHisName> bet then they're just cheap cheezy bears <InHisName> but <rmg51> craft shows are also good places to find non-cheezy teddy bears <rmg51> breakfast time <InHisName> b'fast done, now what ? <teddy-dbear> sit there and look stupid? :-* * InHisName sits there looking at stupid bear <teddy-dbear> works for me <ChinnoDog> comcast-- #ubuntu-us-pa 2011-07-13 <InHisName> FIRST good morning everyone <rmg511> JonathanD: is up to his old tricks again ;-) <JonathanD> MOrning. <rmg51> morning JonathanD <JonathanD> howdy rmg51 <rmg51> o/ <InHisName> morning you 2 early birds, JonathanD and rmg51 <x_hochiBisjeK> its 9am <andrew> it's 9:11 <JonathanD> hey InHisName <InHisName> It's 9:14 here right now. <JonathanD> 10 days! <teddy-dbear> dang JonathanDbot :P <JonathanD> teddy-dbear: keep that up, I'll write a script for it :P <JonathanD> that does hours <teddy-dbear> just like a bot :-D #ubuntu-us-pa 2011-07-14 <jthan> Hey everyone <TheEvilPhoenix> enoyreve yeH <jthan> Alright, well.. backwards is one way to do it. <TheEvilPhoenix> :P <TheEvilPhoenix> hows things <jthan> They're going.

I must be using a beta release <andrew> darn bug, we'll have to reboot JonathanD again <SamuraiAlba> Good bacon to all! <x_hochiBisjeK> Texting While Walking Is Now a Crime in Philadelphia http://ow.ly/5HWTd <PennBot> Title: Texting While Walking Is Now a Crime in Philadelphia (at ow.ly) <ChinnoDog> I am forseeing a new market for head up displays <ChinnoDog> sweet <JonathanD> how bout being on the phone while walking? <ChinnoDog> Or chewing gum while walking <ChinnoDog> Playing video games while walking? <ChinnoDog> Might as well outlaw having your hands above your waist while walking and be done with it <JonathanD> how bout we just outlaw walking? <ChinnoDog> That would really be nipping this problem in the bud <JonathanD> "text while they walk without looking ahead." <JonathanD> thats not so bad. <JonathanD> if applied as written there <ChinnoDog> So, android powered head up display? Who is going to make one? <ChinnoDog> My phone already has an hdmi port <ChinnoDog> chorded keyboard can probably be implemented on screen so no other hardware needed besides display <ChinnoDog> Making the cause illegal is kind of silly but I'm willing to play the game. <ChinnoDog> I would prefer that sanding in the street staring into traffic is illegal, but hey, whatever <ChinnoDog> s/sanding/standing <jedijf> that's actually very legal; called pedestrian right of way <ChinnoDog> So, what are we making laws about then? hehe <ChinnoDog> Lets just reduce the penalty for hitting a pedestrian that is not watching traffic <JonathanD> To -$50 <ChinnoDog> I can't agree with that. I'm occasionally an offender. haha <ChinnoDog> What amazes me is that after I put my phone down at the street corner and start crossing at the crosswalk when I have the right of way the people turning towards me get angry when I am looking at my phone. wtf? <ChinnoDog> I'm not going to move any faster or slower whether I'm looking at my phone, looking at them, or chatting with a friend <JonathanD> thinkgeek is sending stuff to fosscon. <ChinnoDog> hi lamalex <JonathanD> 2128 <JonathanD> erm <JonathanD> 128 <andrew> JonathanD: You forgot the / again <JonathanD> 130 <ChinnoDog> JonathanD: what are you counting? <JonathanD> fosscon regs <ChinnoDog> ah. ic <ChinnoDog> Is there a projected number? <JonathanD> we're going to sell out, almost for sure <JonathanD> which would be 140 <rmg51> which means I can't come at the last moment <JonathanD> correct. <JonathanD> unless you bring a camping chair. <teddy-dbear> what about me? <JonathanD> You can sit on the floor. <teddy-dbear> not on your lap? <JonathanD> I'll be standing. <teddy-dbear> that's ok,you can just hold me :-D <teddy-dbear> now all I need is a way to get there <JonathanD> rmg51 should bring you. <rmg51> I still can't be sure about making it :P <waltman> JonathanD: there might be some walk-ups, too, of course. <JonathanD> I hope they bring chairs. <waltman> JonathanD: I'm assuming some percentage of attendees will be in the hallway track at any given time. <JonathanD> indeed <rmg51> andrew: fix PennBot <ChinnoDog> PennBot must be on a coffee break <andrew> meh <andrew> why did you break him? <rmg51> it's all JonathanD's
