fsmithredInteresting problem we should remember for the future...   When beowulf got moved from testing to stable, apt wanted the user to accept that change. The installer isos got created before beowulf was moved to stable, so everyone has to answer that question the first time they update.00:44
fsmithredNext time we should shift the repos first and then make the isos. Or maybe there's another solution.00:45
onefangIs there a pad for the next meeting?14:07
onefangI'm off to bed now, likely wont be awake for this meeting, if it happens.15:11
* rrq hasn't done "National Thermal Engineer Day" without a pad before15:11
bgstack15Pad for today's Meet: https://pad.dyne.org/code/#/2/code/edit/l0ceV7pAUicx1wkcMOoFZC7V/16:59
masonDepending on external factors, I might actually be able to make today's meeting, for a change.18:09
golinuxWhere are we meeting today?  Reminder says dyne but I haven't heard that their jitsi has been fixed.22:22
golinuxbgstack15: Do you have some special knowledge about that?22:23
bgstack15Somebody with a dyne email had replied to some thread saying it was fixed, right?22:23
adam_free2airalv mentioned new version was much more resource hungry and resized it. last i heard it should be fine now.22:24
golinuxOK then.  Guess we'll start there.  Last I heard he was waiting for me to finally move on from jessie to test. I told him it would be a while before that would happen.22:27
golinuxI will probably have to boot up from the conference multi-boot iso but will try good old jessie first.22:28
golinuxI am not even able to connect.22:36
golinuxhttps://vdc.dyne.org/devuan is just a blank screen with no activity22:36
golinuxIs anyone able to connect there?22:37
rrqyes we are 8 people hanging22:37
golinuxI'll try FF22:38
rrqI had a dropout22:51
adam_free2airoops ... me too :(22:51
adam_free2airok. will report to alv ...22:52
rrq.. and it's bouncing22:52
plasma41derp22:52
golinuxThat really sucked.23:12
golinuxLooks like I'm out of meets for the foreseeable future.23:12
plasma41:-(23:13
golinuxI am really starting to hate technology23:13
golinuxI don;t know why we can't just use rrq's setup which worked last week.23:14
golinuxAs I said on  the pad . . . seems the universe is telling me my devuan days are over.23:16
golinuxIt was a great ride.23:16
ShorTiedidn't miss much23:17
onefangrrq's setup didn't work for me last week.23:18
golinuxIt's the people that are important.  Not the content23:18
golinuxjitsi is just a mess23:19
onefangI still don't understand why we have to have video meetings, with no transcript or recording of what was said.23:19
golinuxBecause face to face contact is important.23:19
golinuxAnd ear to ear.23:20
onefangSo you can see all our grey beards?  B-)23:20
golinuxYou learn a lot from a face23:21
onefangIf you where not at the meeting, you can learn a lot more from a transcription or recording.  I prefer text, so you don't have to sit through a two hour recording each time you need to search for something quickly.23:29
golinuxI don't go to meets to learn.  I go to interact.23:31
golinuxIt's about the people not the techno-jargon.23:31
golinuxWithout the people, devuan is an empty shell23:32
onefangI thought the meetings where for technical discussions, making decisions, not to socialise.23:33
rrqsome meetings have multiple objectives23:34
golinuxThe technical discussions are when I get to play solitaire23:38
rrq"technical discussion" is good too, as is to see Rick's new haircut23:41
golinuxI would have commented on that if I had the opportunity23:47
