I'd like to give a tutorial on some advanced !linux utilities, like #colordiff, #awk/#sed, #screen, etc. what else would make your list?
-
@swegner Who is the intended public of your tutorial?
-
@swegner Also I consider those as basic utilities, how can you do any real work without those?
-
@deepspawn I'm a CS undergrad, and I think Linux computers at my university are underutilized because students don't understand them.
-
@swegner VIM of course :), grep, bash scripting
-
@deepspawn yeah, redmine trunk uses rails 2.2.x. It also has some regressions... that't why I don't use trunk
-
@pm I wish I knew that before, wish me luck getting out of this and have some sleep
-
@deepspawn gl :P. I also have many files patched... maybe I will update to trunk when JP merge them
-
@pm argh getting hit by the regressions
-
@deepspawn Better not tell you now
-
@8ball you're hilarious - do you agree?
-
@marjoleink Most likely
-
@8ball time for bed?
-
@evan Don't count on it
-
@marjoleink I've been hurt before.
-
cool #vim tip: don't reach for the ESC key, use ctrl+[ instead
-
@8ball how are you today
-
@8ball I am starting to look like a wannabe hippie with an afro, should I get a haircut today?
-
@jrobertson Signs point to yes
-
@swegner git :)
-
@8ball Will it boot?
-
@deepspawn Outlook not so good
-
@8ball Will I find another distro to beat openSUSE?
-
@alpacaherder Concentrate and ask again
-
@8ball Will I find something better than openSUSE?
-
@alpacaherder My sources say no
-
@8ball should I have lunch before I go to the gym?
-
@evan You may rely on it

@gicoupar Outlook not so good
-
@gicoupar It is certain
-
@pjf: Cannot tell now, ask again later.
-
@pjf Next time you're up here, I'll have to introduce you to the joys of white tea :P
-
@ysabet: Sounds fantastic. Alas, I don't know when I'll next be in Brisvegas... Unless you want to run a conference there. ;)
-
@8ball Is it banana time yet?
-
@pjf: Still doing up the OSDC bid document. Are you interested in speaking at the dinner?
-
@pjf erhh.. do you know something I missed? Has OSDC 09 location been announced?
-
@alecthegeek: nothing's been announced, we're just talking to the different teams who are putting in bids
-
@jarich Is there an opportunity for a late bid, btw?
-
@djelibeybi <http://identi.ca/djelibeybi>: ask @benbalbo. It was due on Sunday 1st Mar, but maybe they'd be happy to give you an extension
-
@djelibeybi if we get an #osdc 2009 bid by midday 9th March, it will be considered.
-
@benbalbo Ok. I will tell the appropriate people.
-
@benbalbo Don't get overexcited though, I'll be pushing to be the sponsor, not the organizer. :)
-
@djelibeybi I'm sure any of the current bidders would love to have you as a sponsor ;)
-
@benbalbo We're busy planning marketing dollars for H1FY10. If you could point me at sponsorship info (from years past) that would be good.
-
@jarich That'll do nicely!
-
@benbalbo: it would be good for someone to tidy the OSDC site; make consistent links etc. Earlier years have been lost, but we can stop it!
-
@benbalbo: yay!
-
@benbalbo: is the next meeting going to have a f2f component in Victoria? I can bring a box of OSDC belongings!
-
@jarich exec meeting will be virtual. I'll be at next OSDClub in April. Or I can pickup tonight or tomorrow (have car in Melbourne).
-
@benbalbo: you're welcome to drop in tonight or tomorrow. You can play guitar hero world tour with us too!
-
@benbalbo: actually, tonight is better
-
@jarich Tonight it is. DM me your address ;)

@deepspawn la verdad ahora con mi trauma #comunidad-SL no me importa mucho quien es el autor si no que esta vaina funcione
-
@cronopio y cual trauma es ese? De cual quier forma hay otros manejadores similares que no tienen licencias tan estupidas
-
@cronopio acepto de mala gana la invitación a eso de las frias
-
@deepspawn hagale!!, paseme su GTalk para afinar de datelles, imagino que esta en !bogota
-
@cronopio creo que ya lo habiamos intercambiado solo que hace un rato no lo veo online
-
@deepspawn bueno punto, si ya lo habiamos cambiado, pero siempre estoy online, es mas desde GTalk uso #identi.ca
-
@deepspawn DTP = dektop publishing
-
@8ball am I going to have working websites again by the end of this week?
-
what? is @8ball down as well?!?!
-
do robots need sleep? last dent from @8ball was 4 days ago...
-
@deepspawn como decia antes, tengo cierto trauma que me alejo de los foros, listas, comunidades, blogs
-
@stav Better not tell you now
-
@8ball Damn! I need to know what to pack! Can I ask you tomorrow?
-
@stav Reply hazy, try again
-
@8ball Tomorrow?
-
@stav You may rely on it

@deepspawn En un boton del navegador tengo esto que me ayuda para el microblogging http://pastebin.com/m91b04a
-
@cronopio La verdad es que nunca lo uso pero me enerva que algo que tengo instalado me funcione a medias
-
@deepspawn jejeje si, suele suceder. por eso cuento con un plan B, jejejejeje
-
@8ball should I go to the gym later today?
-
@evan Don't count on it
-
@evan: All signs point to yes
-
@8ball shall i go home now?
-
@kojote Outlook not so good
-
@chimeric It is certain
-
@8ball will my back be feeling much better by the time I see the doctor?
-
@jrobertson My sources say no
-
@8ball: Will rogers wireless ever become a useful wireless carrier?
-
@nybble As I see it, yes
-
@8ball I'm tempted to buy a LCD TV. Should I do it?
-
hmm do I need to be subscribed to @8ball to get an answer?
-
@splitbrain: not if he sends you a reply, like this.
-
@holone seems like he is asleep :-/
-

@8ball would you say I am a sociable kind of a person?
-
@jrobertson Yes
-
@8ball is 1+2=3 ?
-
@jrobertson My sources say no
-
@deepspawn took me 3 hours on day one and there wasnt any dependencies included, so I can't think it would take me more than this now :S
-
The problem is that I would really have to have accounts on 4 laconica instances because of what @deepspawn just said
-
@pm really? For me it was pretty much like, get source, configure and start. Getting all running is another story (like queues and xmpp)
-
@deepspawn yeah, I was talking a few hours to setup xmpp, memcached, the daemons and queues. Just installing it is 5 minutes these days
-
@stav back to who? O.o
-
@edythemighty @8ball doesn't wanna touch that one with a 10-byte pole
-
@deepspawn Si que pesar, yo como que voy a dejar asi y voy a mostrar este documento de HP al cliente => http://ln-s.net/328Y
-
@cronopio es jodido pero de poder se puede hacer el downgrade
-
@cronopio el enlace me mando a un formulario de HP, parece que no permite hotlinking
-
@cronopio Ahora si
-
@jamsblast lo mas critico son los drivers y Google no me ayudo mucho con eso y me da susto formatear sin tener los drivers que son
-
@cronopio En la lista de cosas por hacer deberian añadir: Do not ever purchase a product from us again
-
@8ball Should I leave now?
-
@deepspawn Cannot predict now
-
@8ball is my drive today going to be OK?
-
@evan You may rely on it
-
@8ball am I ever going to catch up again?
-
@mrda It is certain
-
@8ball Am I the only one I know who doesn't have cable TV?
-
@saffronlee Signs point to yes
-
@gregorydk Outlook good
-
@8ball Am I going to go crazy with all this travel in the next few months?

@8ball will asking @drobertson questions help improve my IQ?
-
@jroverflow Concentrate and ask again
-
It forgets how I have the windows arranged, @deepspawn. And the nastiness that is padevchooser dies.
-
I just don't understand, @deepspawn. I remember Sun3/80s with dual screens (:0.0, :0.1) working perfectly long ago. sigh.
-
@jasonriedy I was only quoting one of your own dents from a couple days back.
-
Yup. Just wanted to clarify, @josh. ;)
-
@jasonriedy it's xrandr fault afaik
-
@jasonriedy Seems only places I've seen dual-disp work smoothly, the manufacturer controls the whole widget. (Sun, Apple)
-
@jasonriedy yeah, but could you move windows from one head to another?
-
xmove worked then, @teferi. ;)
-
@jasonriedy I don't even know what that does/did
-
@8ball is Margo MacDonald right about Euthanasia?

@8ball is technology accelerating at an exponential rate?

@jroverflow Reply hazy, try again

@deepspawn: Esa no me la sabía. Gracias!
-
@deepspawn well, i'm backuping only 120 megs of stuff, so it's not a problem for me. I guess if u have 3 gig databases, it could be cool
-
@pm Also here in Colombia "broadband" connections mostly sucks badly, getting my backups down and up wile doable it's very slow
-
@deepspawn i'm backing up to another cheap host hehe :p
-
@alphakamp ublog?
-
@ndansmith its like short hand for the term for open microblogging that is a special character that im to lazy to lookup how to type
-
@deepspawn I won't because i'm using a big patch to commit time via my svn commit and i'm way too lazy to patch it again :p
