02:19.45herloGate: hi
02:20.24herlowas referring to the movie 'Remo Willams' but peno thought it was some name I was pretending to know, but I don't!
02:32.10penoSO

03:15.05fozzmooSo, herlo...
03:15.15herlofozzmoo: hi
03:15.25fozzmooI've been like major-sick the last 48 hours.
03:15.37fozzmooSlept pretty much all day Saturday and half of today.
03:15.42herlothat sucks
03:15.45herlosorry to hear that man
03:15.50herlohope you are feeling better
03:15.50fozzmooBut now I'm pretty much okay.
03:15.58fozzmooIn fact, I'm feeling bloggy.
03:16.02herloblogged some stuff on my personal blog
03:16.08fozzmooYeah. I know.
03:16.15fozzmooMy phone was dancing all afternoon today.
03:16.16herlobut its not live yet
03:16.24herloreally?  Why?
03:16.29fozzmooTwitter updates
03:16.50herlooh, nice
03:17.08herloso, wanna blog soon?
03:17.29fozzmooYeah. I need to search backin my log for what you've got on my list.
03:17.47herlok
03:18.30fozzmooOh- blogging about the videos...
03:18.33fozzmooCool.
03:18.55herloI'll pastebin my blog post so you can see my plans :)
03:18.58herlohttp://paste2.org/p/52790
03:19.33herlomy question was about whether you guys were gonna continue to use opensourcetv.tv, or if youtube was good enough ??
03:19.35fozzmooI don't know about the YouTube thing, tho.
03:20.43herloyou don't know how?
03:20.51fozzmooSorry- my mom called to see if I was still alive.
03:21.12fozzmooIn our internal discussions, we've talked about streaming the stuff off our own streaming server.
03:21.19herlonw, does KB plan to use opensourcetv?  Or will the videos be on youtube again...
03:21.24fozzmooof course, that depends somewhat on what you find out from Erich.
03:21.26herloor is there some other server
03:21.29fozzmooWE
03:21.37fozzmoowe'd use opensource.tv
03:21.40herlookay
03:21.47fozzmooor whatever it is. opensourcetv.tv.tv.tv
03:21.51herloI'd like them on youtube too...
03:22.07herlohave that viral marketing
03:22.16fozzmooYeah- that's cool. The stuff we stream ourselves would be better quality than YouTube.
03:22.42fozzmooOh yeah- you wanted me to blog about lodgingdiningnakeddancing
03:22.43herloright
03:22.55herlonaked dancing? w00t!
03:24.10fozzmooNone of these restaurants are anywhere near SLCC!
03:24.37herloand?
03:24.53herlothere's no really good restaurants near slcc
03:25.35fozzmooThat's the Guru Labs instructor in you talkin.
03:25.55fozzmooThere's a Red Robin at Valley Fair Mall.
03:26.14fozzmooThere's an awesome Vietnamese place on 3500 So called The Green Papaya
03:26.36herlo3500s is a safe place?
03:26.39herlolol
03:26.51fozzmooAnd there are a TON of restaurants at the Midvalley Centre just west of your condo
03:27.16fozzmooMy wife and her coworkers drive down to the Green Papaya about one a week.
03:27.30fozzmooThey love the pho there.
03:28.13herlok
03:28.24herlofozzmoo: I'm not against more restaurants
03:28.25fozzmooOh, there's a nice pacific-island place on 4500 So called The Parrothead.
03:29.24fozzmooWe should probably include numbers for pizza delivery. These are geeks we're talking to. :)
03:30.05fozzmooWho's responsible for the lodgingdining page and I'll send them more info.
03:31.37herlofozzmoo: that'd be me or Heartsbane
03:32.07fozzmooWhat is hearts' e-mail?
03:32.14herlotsharpe at gmail
03:32.45penoparrothead is ok, not as good as when they first opened.
03:46.24herlosure, that's fine
03:51.34fozzmooK. I e-mailed you guys with some suggestions. take em or leave em. :)
03:51.56fozzmooAll within 2 mi of SLCC
03:52.34herloI see it
03:52.59herlois concerned that we are giving too many suggestions, but I'll do what I can
03:57.50fozzmooMy concern is that we're sending people downtown or to the east side.
03:58.16fozzmooI think we should at least give them some decent places within a couple miles as well.
03:59.38fozzmooherlo: http://www.dreamstime.com/man-eating-sandwich-image4327189
03:59.49fozzmoo:)
04:04.34herlofozzmoo: no argument
04:04.49fozzmooWhat if I want to argue about it?

05:02.03fozzmooherlo: Just noticed a discrepancy between what you said in your blog post (early bird ends Aug 14) and what's posted on the conference website (early bird ends Aug 7).
05:05.51TeneThere's an extra special deal for anyone who reads his blog, perhaps?
05:09.22sontekI'm excited about those lab demons!
05:09.42sontekNever saw a demon in real life before
05:11.52fozzmooTene: you coming this time?
05:12.05fozzmoosontek: You looked the mirror lately? ;-)
05:12.40Tenefozzmoo: I plan to.  I should probably explicitly ask to not travel that week.
05:12.49fozzmooawesome.
05:12.59sontekfozzmoo: I'm an angel!
05:13.04TeneLIES
05:25.00sontekI've been saved!
08:42.42tensaithe link to "Submit Paper" could probably be taken down now
12:19.03herlotensai: that link is still in use actually.  Presenters can use it to update their paper with slides :)
12:30.06herlothat code is just not in place yet, though it is written as of yesterday
13:03.29penosontek: an angel of darkness perhaps

15:01.44kkubasikherlo: whats the minimum sponsorship level
15:01.44kkubasik?
15:02.03decriptorkkubasik: $1000

15:02.27decriptorlet me get you a link
15:02.33kkubasikwhat exactly does services constitute
15:02.35decriptorhttp://dl.utosc.com/08/pdfs/utosc2008sponsorships.pdf
15:02.58decriptorkkubasik: we prefer cash, as services don't really cover our costs
15:02.59decriptor:(
15:03.03kkubasiki mean, john and I started a company
15:03.12decriptorkkubasik: cool

18:28.20herlodecriptor: I'm still interested in the hardware aspect.  What can they give us?
18:34.25decriptorherlo: that was kind of their question to us,  what do we need
18:34.26decriptor:)
18:42.50decriptorherlo: so lets come up with a list of things, and then see what we need
18:58.01herlodecriptor: well it depends on what they are offering, but we need pcs/laptops/etc
18:58.22herlopoints to the fact that it could be cool to giveaway an xps laptop or something
19:34.48penoit would be cool if you gave it to me
19:37.12decriptorherlo: doesn't look like a give away is possible this year
19:37.24decriptorI'm trying to see if they would be interested in a booth though

21:40.27herlowhiteinge: use the DVD
21:40.44herloalso suggests a network install or a hard drive install
21:40.50herloat the boot: prompt, type
21:40.54herlolinux askmethod :)
21:41.04herlowithout the :)
21:41.27whiteingelol
21:41.31whiteingeThanks. :)
21:41.32whiteingewe're having an installfest tomorrow so I thought I should have a non-DVD option
21:41.47herlowhiteinge: I'd highly suggest a network install server, its easy to set up
21:42.02herlouse ftp, http, nfs and just copy the entire DVD to that location
21:42.37herlothen have them use 'linux askmethod' and choose the appropriate install method, server address and location
21:42.58whiteingegood to know. thanks!

22:30.24fozzmooherlo: thou rocketh.
22:31.18herlofozzmoo: but it really wasn't an error/discrepancy
22:31.45fozzmooWhatever. It was different in one place than another.
22:31.49herloIf people sign up until Aug 14, its still gonna be the lower price :)

22:31.58herloright, that was intended
22:32.23herlobut I got lazy and didn't wanna change it everywhere
