<eridu> maco: what's the name for those documents that _online_ groups publish to establish a non-being-fucked-up policy? like anti-harassment policies at conferences, but for groups over time? I'm thinking like the UCOC, but specifically related to gender/race/other oppression-related issues.
<maco> Diversity Statement?
<maco> or Non-Discrimination Policy

<ChinnoDog> hi peeps
<ChinnoDog> oh. It is 50min past meeting time. Did people actually go?
#ubuntu-us-dc 2011-07-10
<n4cht> ChinnoDog: I haven't actually been to a meeting yet.   Though, when I do it will likely be for the MD meetings since that's much closer for me.

<ChinnoDog> maco: thanks
<ChinnoDog> So, was there an actual meeting on Saturday? And, would it be a faux pas for me to show up with a laptop running Windows? :-)
<maco> i have no idea if there was
<maco> brian tends to show up with an ipad
<maco> and we can always defenestrate your laptop :)
<ChinnoDog> hehe
#ubuntu-us-dc 2011-07-13
<ChinnoDog> Need something to do
<ChinnoDog> What do u peeps do during the week?
<dtchen> hehe, "Cathilic University"
<ncweber> What about it?
<dtchen> the misspelling
<ncweber> Ah.  That totally went by me unnoticed. :)
<ncweber> I guess your brain shows you what you want to see.
<dtchen> likely
<ChinnoDog> Do any of you work/live down town?
<dtchen> not really. I'm in NW.
<dtchen> With the whole commute to/from Baltimore thing.
#ubuntu-us-dc 2011-07-14
<ChinnoDog> Commuting to Baltimore does not sound fun
<maco> ChinnoDog: its the opposite direction of everybody else though, so thats good
<ChinnoDog> maco: I guess? I work down town right now.
<maco> no traffic ;)
<ChinnoDog> I am in the metro. no traffic here either.
<maco> i dont really understand people who voluntarily choose to drive into the city
<ChinnoDog> s/in/on
<maco> well, except when i think about the fact that the red line's been under constant construction for a year
<ChinnoDog> me neither. also, parking at work is $18/day!
<ChinnoDog> I am on orange
<dobey> hola
<dobey> anyone around?
<maco> kinda
<dobey> ah, i was talking to bcurtiswx before UDS, and he was saying people meet up at Taste of India nearly every saturday. and i'm coming up to DC on saturday, and was wondering if people are meeting up there then
<maco> i dont think i'll be there. i have  LOT of sewing to do (i know that sounds funny, but i'm making costumes for a big event in a few weeks)
<dobey> cool
<dobey> is it a dinner thing, or a beer thing?
<maco> dinner thing
<maco> they have a bar
<maco> but its mostly people having hummus & naan and some curry
<dobey> ah
<dobey> i probably won't go to that then, and i'll be getting there later anyway
<ChinnoDog> maco: That doesn't sound funny. What kind of costume are you making?
<maco> i was going to do 12th century English, but now i think Italian Ren
<maco> my body type is more in line with italian clothing construction techniques than english
<maco> (12th c. english = all rectangles, but should be tight on tummy....which...implies no curves at all)
<ChinnoDog> maco: sounds like a fun event
<dtchen> dobey: there's a keysigning, but it might (probably?) not happen at ToI
#ubuntu-us-dc 2011-07-15
<dobey> dtchen: not really interested in keysigning. just beer :)
<dtchen> hehe
#ubuntu-us-dc 2011-07-16
<ChinnoDog> hi
<ChinnoDog> metro seems like a reasonably safe place at 3am
#ubuntu-us-dc 2011-07-18
<ChinnoDog> I officially live here now. Are there release parties?
<maco> used to do installfests after each release at GWU, but then i graduated
<maco> i think there was a jaunty release party at ToI
<maco> dont think there's been one since though
<ChinnoDog> I see. This loco does not have enough beer in its ingredients.
<maco> it has teenagers
<maco> sometimes it has 4 year olds
<maco> cooperation with Yorktown High School Libre User Group was one of the original parts of this loco
<maco> Taste of India does have a bar, and kevin will usually get a Taj while there, but i don't think i've actually seen any of the rest of us drink much alcohol ever
<maco> ive seen dan have a glass of wine a couple times, usually not in public, it's just that we were flatmates
<ChinnoDog> Who has been going to the Saturday meetings? I would say I would go this weekend but I will be in NYC
<maco> i don't really know
<maco> i've been kind of out of the loop for a while. moved to an area where i have friends and got a social life and stuff :P
<ChinnoDog> What are you trying to say about the rest of us? haha
<maco> that yall don't spend your evenings like college students, watching DVDs every night?
<maco> i actually live in the same apartment complex as a bunch of my friends, so its kinda like being in a dorm that actually has people i *like*
<ChinnoDog> Sounds nice, but I moved here so there would be more things to do. I don't want to spent all my time at home watching movies
<ChinnoDog> Except for next month, because moving is expensive and movies aren't. :-p
<ChinnoDog> movies and playing xbox
<dobey> heh
<maco> for me, watching Big Bang Theory and playing Dominion with friends *is* more things to do...especially compared to sitting around on IRC every night like i have for 5 years
#ubuntu-us-dc 2011-07-20
<semitones> hello! do you folks do any events outside of DC in the surrounding metro area?
<semitones> I'd like to participate but it is hard for me to travel to dc
<ChinnoDog> semitones: where are you located?
<maco> takoma park in september
<semitones> I'm in Rockville, montgomery county during the summer
<semitones> the metro ride to dupont is about 40 minutes
<ChinnoDog> That doesn't sound bad
<ChinnoDog> I used to drive 90min for events in Philly
<maco> at least you can knit on the metro
<semitones> it's not too bad but I also work saturdays
<maco> can't drive and knit
<semitones> that's true
<ChinnoDog> I am 30-35min to downton. Seems pretty awesome to me
<semitones> I live very close to montgomery college - rockville, do you folks know if there are any linux or ubuntu groups there?
<ChinnoDog> semitones: They aren't going to appear in your back yard unles you put them there
<semitones> ok just curious
#ubuntu-us-dc 2011-07-21
<jbicha> maco: you aren't running oneiric yet, right?
<maco> im about to boot an oneiric *vm* as soon as this iso download finishes...
<maco> mostly lately ive been running stable at work (because ya know...i cant have that breaking. also needs to work with vmware) and osx at home
<jbicha> ok, I just reported bug 814346
<lubotu1> Launchpad bug 814346 in xorg (Ubuntu) "xorg-common depends on xdiagnose which pulls in all of gtk3" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/814346
<maco> because im spending all my awake time at the boyfriend's and he's an osx person and my laptop's at home and cant suspend so moving it sucks
<maco> im home right now though :)
<jbicha> right, did you guys upgrade to Lion yet?
<maco> the laptop of his i mostly use is 2 releases behind, and he says he'll upgrade to what-was-stable-a-week-ago but until then im not putting bzr on, since the python version is different
<maco> he keeps the machines in line with what his office uses, so i doubt the switch to lion will be very immediate
<maco> i know it scrolls touchscreen way instead of scrollbar way
<jbicha> oh ok, it makes sense that it's a lot easier to provide support for the system you're always using
<maco> that was pretty much the argument used in switching my family to ubuntu
#ubuntu-us-dc 2011-07-24
<ChinnoDog>  was there a meeting yesterday?

<bcurtiswx> maco, would you be so kind to leave me a comment at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BCurtisWX/MOTUApplication ?
<maco> bcurtiswx: have i sponsored anything for you?
<bcurtiswx> nope, you've helped me learn packaging though
<bcurtiswx> looking for comment not endorsement
<maco> ok
<bcurtiswx> muchas gracias

<ChinnoDog> So... DC loco expired?
<marcoceppi> guess so
<ChinnoDog> When was the last time there was a meeting?
<marcoceppi> I can't recal
<ChinnoDog> No wonder it expired.
<marcoceppi> ChinnoDog: it was probably in December
<ChinnoDog> I see on the forum that I am not the only one that noticed it expired.
<marcoceppi> ChinnoDog: I'm not sure what to do. I mean I suppose it's pertinant to renew, but I feel like its' more important to drum up new members, plan activities and really start embracing what it means to be a loco
#ubuntu-us-dc 2013-07-06
<ChinnoDog> marcoceppi: True. No sense in having a loco without active members.

<ChinnoDog> spam belongs in a can
<marcoceppi> Fried then eaten preferably
#ubuntu-us-dc 2014-07-31
<ChinnoDog> marcoceppi: Do you go to things like fosscon?
<marcoceppi> ChinnoDog: yeah
<ChinnoDog> Are you going to fosscon this year?
<marcoceppi> the one in Brussles?
<ChinnoDog> No. This one: http://fosscon.us/
<JonathanD> FOSSCON.
<JonathanD> Have a nice day.
<ChinnoDog> lol
<marcoceppi> ChinnoDog: I might, I don't know who's going
<marcoceppi> someone from my team will probably be there
