kanzureJuul: have you met any of the copenhagen suborbitals guys yet?07:47
Juulkanzure,  a few07:47
kanzuretell me tell me07:48
Juulsome (most?) are members of Illutron, which is sorta a hackerspace/artist collective. mostly they do burning-man'ish installations. They like fire and lights and industrial machinery07:49
Juulthey have an old barge as their space07:49
Juulwhere at least one of the submarines are parked as well07:50
JayDuggerSubmarines?07:50
kanzure:(07:50
kanzurewoops, i meant :)07:50
Juulthe guy who, if i understand correctly, is their main man, built three submarines before starting on the suborbitals project07:50
Juulthey first was a one-man job07:51
kanzureright.07:51
Juulthe secon I think has room for two07:51

Juuland the third is much bigger, but still technically in the "midget" class for submarines07:51
JuulI don't know much about the suborbitals project itself07:52

Juulyeah, and apparently it costs $10 to become a member07:53
kanzureit's worth it :P07:53

kanzurefenn: we should write a whitepaper about skdb or something. i don't think that posting a link to the old dokuwiki page revived will do the trick here.09:10
kanzuremy original plan was to demonstrate a reprap functioning with an skdb package but nobody stepped up to the plate / i didn't make one09:11
kanzurepresumably this document wouldn't explain the utility of an ecology of packages but rather outline the general strategy09:11

archelser, interesting, albeit a little confusing without context11:00
archelsoh hey, I'm in there11:01
kanzureit's a log of everyone i meet with, each time, and what we talk about11:01
archelsAre you going to log this conversation?11:01
kanzurealready did :(11:02
archelsfascinating11:02
archelsTo what degree is this automated?11:02
kanzurevery little. i used to have a gmail/pidgin/irssi plugin but they are all b0rked (also an android plugin/app would be hawt, to monitor my phone calls, or something that scrapes skype's logs)11:02
Utopiahkanzure: plus it gets frustrating when you have conversations over non electronic supports (like.. real-life) because it leaves less traces (logs), no?11:04
kanzurei have some scripts that generate visualizations and data (like charts/graphs, tag clouds, related tags, suggested/recommended tags, contact frequency, suggestions for who to talk with and what about)11:04
kanzureUtopiah: true, but it turns out that i can't seem to talk to more than 20 people in a day, and most of the time i already know their names11:05
kanzureUtopiah: but yes it especially sucks when i don't know their names11:05
UtopiahI made a little script to have stats on some people I discuss with often, I guess the next step would be to pull out their profile few minutes before the expected interaction11:07
kanzureetacts recently implemented "mutual contacts" in gmail11:08
kanzuretbh "mutual contacts" is maybe the only feature i really like on social networking websites11:08
archelsRather candid to publish the full list online.11:15
kanzurei'm probably a moron11:23
archelswell, so long as you are not a camwhore. :)11:26

kanzure"I feel there's a lot of promotional and practical research potential in more pragmatic demonstrations of such housing specifically as mock-ups of space habitats. There used to be a few companies that worked in the field of 'virtual space tourism'."11:51
kanzure"They would basically create these very sophisticated computer-managed interior mock-ups of imaginary spacecraft in large span buildings like aircraft hangars or warehouses and host virtual space cruises complete with role-playing scenarios."11:51
kanzure"Seemed a promising idea but the leading company pursuing this -called Unistellar- suffered too heavy a loss with the theft by corrupt bureaucrats of one of their premier mock-up spacecraft when on a tour in China."11:51
kanzure"They've since retreated to MMO development and other players likewise retreated to museum displays and such as real space tourism became an increasingly near prospect"11:51

kanzureayah bdeir has sent out an open hardware definition with some comments from the community aggregated into it.. here's an interesting excerpt:14:02
kanzure"In promoting Open Hardware, it is important not to unintentionally deceive designers regarding the extent to which their licenses actually can control their designs.14:02
kanzureUnder U.S. law, and law in many other places, copyright does not apply to electronic designs. Patents do. The result is that an Open Hardware license can in general be used to restrict the plans but probably not the manufactured devices or even restatements of the same design that are not textual copies of the original.14:02
kanzureThe applicable section of copyright law is 17.102(b), which says:14:02
kanzureIn no case does copyright protection for an original work of authorship extend to any idea, procedure, process, system, method of operation, concept, principle, or discovery, regardless of the form in which it is described, explained, illustrated, or embodied in such work.14:02
kanzure^attributable to bruce perens14:02
kanzurethe rhetoric about being handed a few trillion dollars seems slightly over the top here http://www.globalinnovationcommons.org/ (while the trillion dollar representation might be reasonable itself, the rhetoric is what i take issue with)14:16
