[0:19] <triplez> ruiwen: what did you think about my idea we talked about on the bus
[0:20] * SilverWolf (i=SilverWl@nusnet-216-252.dynip.nus.edu.sg) has joined #linuxnus
[0:21] <SilverWolf> omg
[0:21] <SilverWolf> Can you reach http://svn.apache.org =
[0:21] <SilverWolf> ?
[0:21] <sng> SilverWolf: Works from Oregon.
[0:23] <SilverWolf> sng, okay thanks :)... Somehow it's broken NUS
[0:23] <SilverWolf> s/NUS/from NUS
[0:30] <ruiwen> SilverWolf: NUS' network isn't the most reliable, unfortunate
[0:30] <ruiwen> *unfortunately
[0:30] <SilverWolf> hehe
[0:30] <ruiwen> also, thurs 2135 is fine.. no earlier slot though?
[0:31] <SilverWolf> *reaaalllyyyyy...*... There is a 360ms ping to svn.apache.org... from denmark there is 22ms...
[0:31] <SilverWolf> yes, there is one 17:05?
[0:31] <ruiwen> triplez: interesting idea, but probably need to talk to you more to understand it more thoroughly
[0:31] <patrickhaller> hey all
[0:31] <SilverWolf> patrickhaller, hey
[0:32] <patrickhaller> what do you guys use for filesharing between friends here?
[0:32] <patrickhaller> like have dvd image, need to share...
[0:32] <SilverWolf> patrickhaller: You could put it on a webserver
[0:33] <patrickhaller> is that what you guys do?
[0:33] <patrickhaller> everyone has a slice host or something?
[0:33] <SilverWolf> patrickhaller, that's what i do.
[0:33] <elfgoh> patrickhaller: hmmm i transferred a cd iso using skype before
[0:33] <patrickhaller> ah, ok
[0:33] * haoyu (n=bhy@cm3.delta26.maxonline.com.sg) Quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
[0:33] <elfgoh> patrickhaller: for smaller files i use rapidshare or yousendit
[0:34] <ruiwen> patrickhaller: though if it's convenient, i'd rather use a USB drive or something
[0:34] <ruiwen> patrickhaller: i find network transfers slightly painful for large files
[0:34] <patrickhaller> yeah
[0:34] <patrickhaller> i was thinking that might get better with openNet
[0:34] <patrickhaller> painful because of bandwidth
[0:35] <ruiwen> SilverWolf: erk. 2135 then.. 1705 is a tad early
[0:35] <patrickhaller> or painful because of having to negotiate which way to share?
[0:35] <SilverWolf> ruiwen, hehe yea :D
[0:35] <SilverWolf> ruiwen, cool
[0:35] <ruiwen> patrickhaller: indeed.. am looking forward to openNet
[0:35] <patrickhaller> you look up your address yet?
[0:35] <patrickhaller> ;)
[0:35] <ruiwen> patrickhaller: painful because of the network speeds (or lack thereof)
[0:36] <ruiwen> patrickhaller: Oct this year i believe =D
[0:36] <ruiwen> patrickhaller: but the service won't go live so soon right?
[0:36] <patrickhaller> huh, i thought that date was the go-live for your building date
[0:36] <patrickhaller> estimated naturally
[0:36] <patrickhaller> but still....
[0:38] <SilverWolf> ruiwen, I can't seem to book the tickets before tomorrow. Don't they allow it more beforehand to book the tickets?
[0:39] <ruiwen> patrickhaller: go live? heh i thought it was just the installation date =P
[0:39] <ruiwen> SilverWolf: i don't think there's a limit to how soon before you can get tickets.. but then again, haven't really booked tickets in advance much
[0:40] <ruiwen> SilverWolf: usually just head to the cinema slightly earlier to get them
[0:56] * jmarki is now known as jmarki|sleep
[1:04] <SilverWolf> ruiwen, ok.. hmm, it's just because they only show one day ahead
[1:14] * soopie (i=dcff0765@gateway/web/freenode/x-ioawfmykvyyissey) has joined #linuxnus

[1:17] <elfgoh> soopie: where are you from?
[1:25] <elfgoh> ruiwen: triplez i was suggested to jmarki that he should get his sis in our club'
[1:26] <elfgoh> then lifespan += 4 years
[1:27] <ruiwen> elfgoh: um.. is his sis even interested in what we do?
[1:27] <elfgoh> ruiwen: Quote ngiin "We have nothing to lose!"
[1:27] <elfgoh> It's for the greater good :D
[1:28] <triplez> HAHHAHAHHA
[1:28] <triplez> did you see what happened when his sister appeared?
[1:28] <ruiwen> triplez: what?
[1:28] <elfgoh> what?
[1:29] <triplez> everyone stopped talking and looked
[1:30] <elfgoh> Well she looked familiar... and i thought she was waving to one of us at the table.. so was trying to figure out what's happening
[1:35] * soopie (i=dcff0765@gateway/web/freenode/x-ioawfmykvyyissey) has left #linuxnus
[1:36] <elfgoh> ruiwen: triplez SFD target audience: The target audience is the man in the street, the parent, the good man who knows what is great software, and knows it must not cost him an arm and a leg. It is for the one who knows good value when he sees one. And if he wants to provide a great tool to his family, his friends, his colleagues, he wants to know that it is a tool that is openly designed, and there is no question about the source of the program. Every
[1:36] <elfgoh> thing is open. Open source.
[1:37] <SilverWolf> sleep tight
[1:37] <ruiwen> elfgoh: is that a write up for something?
[1:37] <elfgoh> triplez: I really feel like showing some open source games.... you wanna help me find feasible ones? I can recommend some for uou to try
[1:37] <elfgoh> ruiwen: that is from the SFD doc
[1:37] <elfgoh> so that is the "higher intention" of FOSA
[1:37] <ruiwen> elfgoh: i see.. wonder who wrote that
[1:38] * honcheng is now known as zz_honcheng
[1:38] <triplez> elfgoh: not now... but yeah i can help out
[1:38] <triplez> there really isn't any "good" opensource games imo
[1:38] <triplez> only good games ON open source platforms
[1:39] <elfgoh> triplez: great... heh we try lor haha
[1:39] <elfgoh> maybe go HoN in the end :p
[1:39] <elfgoh> and apparently they already have a writeup about us: One of the oldest open source clubs in our universities, NUS LINUS has been pushing open source within the National University of Singapore. With their close relationship with NUS itself, they have definitely helped create a good mindshare among students about open source tools.
[1:39] <elfgoh> and wth is wif NUS LINUS??!
[1:40] <ruiwen> *facepalms*
[1:41] <ruiwen> elfgoh: i believe LINUS is the NUS Library system
[1:41] <elfgoh> Btw... we are the OLDEST LUG right?
[1:41] <ruiwen> eh....
[1:41] <elfgoh> ruiwen: yea let me correct them... :s
[1:41] <ruiwen> elfgoh: not really
[1:41] <elfgoh> i mean amongst the unis
[1:41] <ruiwen> elfgoh: we formed at around the same time as NTU and SMU
[1:41] <triplez> oldest? really?
[1:41] <ruiwen> elfgoh: remember manish?
[1:42] <elfgoh> ruiwen: yea but i think it might have died after Manish
[1:42] <ruiwen> elfgoh: NTU was slightly later than us, officially, but SMU was already formed when we first met them
[1:42] <elfgoh> oh well nvm
[1:42] <ruiwen> elfgoh: well it's alive as NTUOSS now =)

[14:07] <dqminh> ruiwen, elfgoh i think we can rework the slides abit, add more eyecandies.
[14:08] <dqminh> I will do it and send back to you guys today
[14:09] <dqminh> elfgoh, what did you mean by booking the central forum in Upcoming activities section ?
[14:09] <dqminh> we are going to do an install fest at central forum ?
[14:09] <elfgoh> ruiwen: dqminh: Guan Sin asking for expectance attendance.....
[14:09] <dqminh> i'm not too sure about that too
[14:10] <elfgoh> dqminh: yes we intend to..
[14:10] <dqminh> how large is the auditorium in com cen ?
[14:10] <elfgoh> ngiin felt is was important to get eyeballs
[14:10] <dqminh> i'm thinking an auditorium is abit overkill
[14:10] <ruiwen> dqminh: yup you can add more bling bling directly in the google docs slides? then we don't have to send it back and forth
[14:11] <elfgoh> dqminh: no idea, but if he is willing to give it to us, let's take it i guess
[14:12] <dqminh> elfgoh, ok ;)
[14:12] <dqminh> not sure about expected attendance. How many people we attracted last welcome tea
[14:14] <ruiwen> about 30 i think
[14:14] <ruiwen> (OT: anyone using php 5.3.0 here?)
[14:15] <dqminh> elfgoh, lets put it at 30 this time too
[14:15] <dqminh> and you guys need me to contact Prof. Roland Yap right ?
[14:16] <dqminh> asking about the open-source projects in NUS
[14:16] <elfgoh> dqminh: yea as stated in the min
[14:16] <dqminh> ok
[14:16] <dqminh> i will send him an email
[14:17] <ruiwen> dqminh: i heard that all nus lectures have webcasts now.. is that right?
[14:17] <dqminh> ruiwen, no, depends on the lecturer
[14:17] <dqminh> some doesnt like webcast
[14:17] <ruiwen> dqminh: oh ok.. so nothing's changed then =P
[14:18] <dqminh> :P
[14:18] <ruiwen> i think lecturers need to learn that being in lecture != learning

Alien spacecrafts are seen hovering over many locations, interrupting daily human lives and raising concerns from the residents of the area. This film is also said to be a sort of so
