hawke_1: I did not really find it "easy" at first, mostly because I had to infer what is meaningful, which is pretty roguelike, lol :/
2013-08-15 22745, 2013
CatQuest
but it's 3d and sooo cute :D
2013-08-15 22708, 2013
Leftmost needs someone to practice German on.

speaking of nothing in particular, are you not comming to sumit leftmost?

CatQuest
i could spit in like 2-300 nok but
2013-08-15 22754, 2013
kepstin-work has already spend his budget and then a bit; overseas tickets are expensive :(
2013-08-15 22759, 2013
ianmcorvidae
I feel like our north-american folks are pretty scattered too, so it's not like we could do a second summit or something like that
2013-08-15 22712, 2013
CatQuest
:(
2013-08-15 22731, 2013
ianmcorvidae
well, I guess we have a bit of a cluster around the great lakes
2013-08-15 22733, 2013
CatQuest
ianmcorvidae: but atleast it would be a lot more chep to travel withing the same country
2013-08-15 22753, 2013
Leftmost
It's still pretty expensive to travel within the US.
2013-08-15 22755, 2013
ianmcorvidae
CatQuest: wouldn't be the same country, we're fairly evenly split canada vs. US
2013-08-15 22702, 2013
CatQuest
:/
2013-08-15 22707, 2013

2013-08-15 22727, 2013

travelling within the same province/state is closer to what you folks in europe have ;)
2013-08-15 22730, 2013

it's cheqaper to go to sweden than northameria for me
2013-08-15 22751, 2013
ianmcorvidae
though something like chicago I think might work okayish if we wanted to try
2013-08-15 22754, 2013
kepstin-work
(and even then we suck, since you're usually stuck with driving or taking a bus)
2013-08-15 22754, 2013
CatQuest
kepstin-work: not really. you require no passport
2013-08-15 22700, 2013
Leftmost
I can get the train to Chicago. :-D
2013-08-15 22709, 2013
Leftmost
I've done it before.
2013-08-15 22715, 2013
ianmcorvidae
getting CallerNo6/derwin there would be the challenge
2013-08-15 22722, 2013
kepstin-work has flied to chicago several times, but should check alternate transport too :)
2013-08-15 22732, 2013
CatQuest
and i prefer buss or other land motion, i mean, no airoplane nonsense
2013-08-15 22734, 2013
ianmcorvidae
I'd probably just get a plane ticket, but southwest is pretty good from here to chicago
2013-08-15 22752, 2013
kepstin-work
chicago is a single jet from here, several carriers run direct flights since chicago is a hub.

What are the new Picard release icons? the star+gold record = 'changed and all tracks' right?
2013-08-15 22709, 2013
ianmcorvidae
CatQuest: trains in north america aren't uniformly very good, admittedly :/ buses somewhat work, but that only works for short distances
2013-08-15 22710, 2013
Leftmost
Absolutely nothing out of my town is cheap, and even fewer things are direct flights. But train tickets are pretty cheap and I like traveling by train better anyhow.
2013-08-15 22725, 2013
ianmcorvidae
hawke_1: star is equivalent to the asterisk later on in the display
2013-08-15 22733, 2013
ianmcorvidae
hawke_1: there's some sort of 'error' color
2013-08-15 22734, 2013

last year I deliberately flew to a further airport from london so I could be on the train longer :P
2013-08-15 22730, 2013

Trains here have poor coverage and take quite a while, but I like not being harassed by security and I prefer the peace of a slow train journey to a mad dash through airports.

not that this "north american secondary-summit" idea is probably that viable though :P
2013-08-15 22711, 2013
kepstin-work notes that several north american cities have perfectly good public transit train systems
2013-08-15 22712, 2013
Leftmost
Two hour drive north to get to the nearest train station, then a thirty hour ride to Chicago, and I'd still much prefer it to air travel.
2013-08-15 22713, 2013
CatQuest
Leftmost: ?!
2013-08-15 22713, 2013

oh, so that supports the "near the great lakes" idea further

southwest I can do a direct flight here to chicago

Given the choice I would much rather go to Minneapolis than Chicago. :-)

Jesus. I can't get anywhere for $200 from here. :-P
2013-08-15 22701, 2013
kepstin-work was just in chigago for the us ignite summit, so somewhere else would be cool :)
2013-08-15 22726, 2013
ianmcorvidae sees what MSP would cost for me/the californians
2013-08-15 22736, 2013
ianmcorvidae
for this random date I chose :P
2013-08-15 22739, 2013
ianmcorvidae
slightly more, on the order of $40 extra
2013-08-15 22746, 2013
ianmcorvidae
but that's still not bad
2013-08-15 22726, 2013
kepstin-work wouldn't mind visiting california... ;)

2013-08-15 22716, 2013

I was trying to optimize for cost for the most people, I guess
2013-08-15 22709, 2013

we should go to sf, see if archive.org will host :)
2013-08-15 22721, 2013
ianmcorvidae
hah
2013-08-15 22730, 2013
ianmcorvidae
they probably would
2013-08-15 22732, 2013
ianmcorvidae
that'd make it easy for derwin and CallerNo6 :P
2013-08-15 22707, 2013
ianmcorvidae
dunno in terms of places to sleep, I guess, but
2013-08-15 22754, 2013
Leftmost
It's about $500 to fly to Minneapolis at a random time in October, and more for Chicago. Same dates on the train, $161.
2013-08-15 22721, 2013
Leftmost
$6 more to get to Chicago.
2013-08-15 22726, 2013
ianmcorvidae
crazy
2013-08-15 22740, 2013
ianmcorvidae
I guess for non-southwest flights that's about the same for me
2013-08-15 22747, 2013
kepstin-work
on the other hand, the train journey probably takes a fair bit longer
2013-08-15 22750, 2013
ianmcorvidae
being near a *slightly* larger airport probably helps though
2013-08-15 22700, 2013
Leftmost
kepstin-work, it does, but I own books.
2013-08-15 22712, 2013
ianmcorvidae
kepstin-work: I think he was saying 30 hours, yes :P
2013-08-15 22728, 2013
Leftmost
They also don't care if I bring food on the train.
2013-08-15 22731, 2013
kepstin-work
if it means taking extra days off work, could come out closer to even.
2013-08-15 22754, 2013
Leftmost
Well, part of the issue I have with getting to the summit is not having a job. So, you know, no trouble there.
2013-08-15 22705, 2013
ianmcorvidae
lol
2013-08-15 22714, 2013
kepstin-work
... well, I guess you're taking the train then :)
2013-08-15 22730, 2013
Leftmost
And the job I'm most hoping to get right now is remote anyhow.
2013-08-15 22739, 2013
kepstin-work wonders whether it's even possible to book an economy class boat trip across the atlantic any more.
2013-08-15 22745, 2013
Leftmost
I'd have to tether, and I'd lose service sometimes, but that's not a big deal.

2013-08-15 22738, 2013

ianmcorvidae
not sure what the error is, but
2013-08-15 22738, 2013
kepstin-work
should be made more obviously not silver, imo.
2013-08-15 22753, 2013
hawke_1
I’d have said orange, yeah.
2013-08-15 22712, 2013
kepstin-work
orange is too similar to gold, imo
2013-08-15 22718, 2013
ianmcorvidae
anyway, hawke_1, I think you can open up the 'info' screen for the release and there's a log now? which might tell you what's up
2013-08-15 22719, 2013
kepstin-work
make it obvious :)
2013-08-15 22737, 2013
ianmcorvidae
but that's the error icon, anyway
2013-08-15 22739, 2013
hawke_1
It probably doesn’t help that the default theme in Ubuntu is orange…so orange is kinda “normal”
