| rick_h_ | naw, it'll gte fixed | 12:18 |

| cmaloney | Doing well | 12:19 |
| rick_h_ | pyohio go off awesomely? | 12:19 |
| cmaloney | just wrapping up things with $client | 12:19 |
| brousch | PyOhio was excellent | 12:19 |
| cmaloney | Last data load | 12:19 |
| rick_h_ | woot | 12:19 |
| rick_h_ | on both accounts | 12:19 |
| cmaloney | Yeah, PyOhio was really good | 12:19 |
| cmaloney | Mike Pirnat asked how you were | 12:20 |
| brousch | Watch the K Lars Lohn talk if nothing else | 12:20 |
| cmaloney | as did Eric F. (not attempting to spell name correctly) | 12:20 |
| rick_h_ | yea, :( second year in a row missing | 12:20 |
| cmaloney | Well, Mike P. missed last year so it's all good | 12:21 |
| cmaloney | You're allowed one missed year. After that Eric starts hunting you down. | 12:21 |
| cmaloney | ;) | 12:21 |
| rick_h_ | hah | 12:21 |
| brousch | He talked to me about a PyMI conference within 5 minutes of my arrival | 12:22 |
| cmaloney | brousch: I think he gave up with me | 12:22 |
| rick_h_ | hah! | 12:22 |
| rick_h_ | he never gives up | 12:22 |
| cmaloney | Mentioned he needed a reason to come up to Michigan. | 12:22 |
| cmaloney | a good reason | 12:22 |
| rick_h_ | beer not enough? wtf | 12:22 |
| cmaloney | Apparently noyt | 12:23 |
| cmaloney | they have our beer at Meijer | 12:23 |
| cmaloney | who knew? | 12:23 |
| brousch | They have Meijer? | 12:23 |
| cmaloney | They do | 12:23 |
| cmaloney | in Bowling Green at least | 12:23 |
| cmaloney | I used their restroom | 12:23 |
| brousch | Well shoot, what's left? | 12:23 |
| cmaloney | National Coney | 12:23 |
| brousch | Beaches! | 12:23 |
| brousch | On a lake that doesn't catch fire and sprout toxic blooms | 12:24 |
| cmaloney | Hah | 12:24 |
| cmaloney | I do love that "National Coney Island" is only in southern Michigan | 12:24 |
| brousch | PyMI will be held in Sleeping Bear Dunes. | 12:24 |
| cmaloney | Southeast MI at that | 12:25 |
| cmaloney | brousch: I wouldn't mind that one iota | 12:25 |
| cmaloney | Haven't been there since I was a kid | 12:25 |
| brousch | I have a vision of a family-friendly conference in West MI in summer. Bring your spouse and family. They can visit museums, beach, gardens, etc while you geek out at the conference. Wine and beer afterwards | 12:27 |
| brousch | But it will never happen due to lack of time | 12:29 |
| cmaloney | brousch: You're already organizing most of west MI | 12:30 |
| brousch | Oh no, I only run the GRPUG now | 12:30 |
| brousch | And CoNGA-WM, but that's really no work | 12:30 |
| brousch | I do some parts of WMMakers too, but not a lot | 12:31 |
| brousch | BarCampGR | 12:31 |
| brousch | The biggest problem is it would have to be july/august for the beaches, and those months are full of conferences already | 12:32 |
| cmaloney | yeah | 12:35 |
| _stink_ | brousch only runs one thing, plus three other things | 12:39 |
| brousch | Yes, much lighter load than I used to have, which is good because my work situation changed to not allow me to do as much during the day | 12:40 |
| brousch | We could think about doing it during ArtPrize, but it would have to be in Holland or farther away | 12:45 |
| brousch | cmaloney: Are you still tight with your Alma Mater? | 12:45 |
| cmaloney | brousch: Not particularly. | 12:46 |
| brousch | OK,t hat's enough thinking about it for now | 12:51 |
| cmaloney | heh | 12:51 |
| brousch | I heard the children's museum thing is open in detroit again | 12:52 |
| brousch | http://www.mi-sci.org/ | 12:52 |
| cmaloney | Yeah, that's cool. | 12:53 |
| _stink_ | yeah i'm volunteering with them | 12:55 |
| _stink_ | it's a neat place | 12:55 |
| _stink_ | very lean staff | 12:55 |
| brousch | We went there like 3 months before it closed | 12:55 |
| _stink_ | in terms of numbers. i cannot speak to girth. | 12:55 |
| brousch | I'm supposed to arrange a family trip to Tha D for the ford/zoo/science center this fall | 12:57 |
| cmaloney | brousch: orly? | 13:00 |
| jrwren | brousch: awesome! are your kids not in school? | 13:01 |
| brousch | Yes. I promised we would go back to the ford since we couldn't see the village or many regular exhibits at makerfaire. And I said we'd visit the science center when it re-opened, and we're supposed to go to the zoo each year, but we didn't go last year | 13:02 |
| brousch | jrwren: It would be a weekend, or two | 13:02 |
| jrwren | brousch: cool, cool. | 13:02 |
| === michaela is now known as Guest84202 | ||

| jrwren | where can i buy pay as you go mifi? | 15:49 |
| rick_h_ | good luck | 15:50 |
| rick_h_ | it's too $$ in the US | 15:50 |
| rick_h_ | tmobile might have one but not sure | 15:50 |
| jrwren | ugh | 15:50 |
| rick_h_ | I tried it with verizon/att and it was waaaay $$$ | 15:50 |
| jrwren | yeah, i just looked. tmob has it, but its not cheap and pay as you go you have to buy the device which is ~$125 | 15:57 |
| jrwren | which is about $100 more than I wanted to spend total :) | 15:57 |
| cscheib | jrwren: maybe going to A2 again tomorrow, if I don't have to go to Southfield instead | 16:35 |
| jrwren | cscheib: awesome! lunch? | 16:35 |
| cscheib | yup | 16:35 |
| cscheib | I'll text/IRC/whatever when I know wtf is happening | 16:35 |
| jrwren | cool | 16:39 |
| jrwren | jcastro, kdub either of you tentatively want to join? | 16:39 |
| jrwren | n0p: ? | 16:39 |
| jrwren | I wonder if there are any ohter AA area folks that I don't know about | 16:40 |
| jcastro | maybe? I have to see what my car situation is | 16:40 |
| DrDaemonEye | jrwren: I am in AA, however I have meetings starting at 1PM on the northeast corner of town. | 16:41 |
| cscheib | some tool mis-wired the SAS loop on a Data Domain, so my A2 plan is only tentative right now | 16:42 |
| cscheib | may have to run and fix that. | 16:42 |
| DrDaemonEye | cool. | 16:42 |
| cscheib | didn't know n0p was idling on here, even | 16:42 |
| cscheib | haven't seen him in years | 16:43 |
| cmaloney | jrwren: I would recommend Ting but it's not good for out of the country | 16:46 |
| cmaloney | https://ting.com/shop/sim | 16:47 |
| cmaloney | They do allow tethering on phones that support it | 16:47 |
| jrwren | DrDaemonEye: hey, I'm in the NE corner of town :) | 16:49 |
| jrwren | cmaloney: $$$ becuase I have to buy the mifi | 16:50 |
| cmaloney | jrwren: Right, but you could get an $80 phone | 16:50 |
| cmaloney | and use that | 16:50 |
| cmaloney | (3G though. $164 for a Mifi unit) | 16:51 |
| kdub | jrwren, tentatively yes | 16:56 |
| DrDaemonEye | jrwren: oh really? where abouts, may I ask? | 16:56 |
| jrwren | DrDaemonEye: a short walk from Traverwood Library, or a longer walk from Plymouth Rd/Traverwood Rd intersection | 17:00 |
| DrDaemonEye | jrwren: nice. I'm over at Green and Plymoth. | 17:06 |
| jrwren | DrDaemonEye: cool! | 17:08 |
| DrDaemonEye | yeah. good area, but one heck of a commute for me... I live over on the west side | 17:08 |
| jrwren | DrDaemonEye: ah yeah, that is a trek. its not far, but with traffic and no direct roads, UGH | 17:15 |
| n0p | jrwren: cscheib: yeah, lmk if/where/when you guys are going | 17:20 |
| DrDaemonEye | jrwren: yeah... Once I get up onto Broadway and then over to Plymoth Rd, it gets better. | 17:32 |
| jrwren | DrDaemonEye: sure. with huron under construction, the comute home must really suck. | 17:33 |
| DrDaemonEye | jrwren: It is actually not bad... I take broadway all the way down to miller, then over to Maple. | 17:33 |
| DrDaemonEye | Actually, I cut through the waterhill neighborhood, as I am in North Waterhill. | 17:34 |
| jrwren | DrDaemonEye: i was picking my daughter up from summer camps downtown at 5pm a few weeks ago and that part was terrible | 17:34 |
| DrDaemonEye | jrwren: That it is. It is part of the reason I take the bus most of the time. | 17:35 |
| jrwren | I don't know where that is. | 17:36 |
| jrwren | ah, yeah, bus rules. | 17:36 |
| DrDaemonEye | Waterhill neighborhood? | 17:36 |
| jrwren | yeah. | 17:36 |
| DrDaemonEye | It's up in the area of Newport, Miller, and M-14 | 17:37 |
| jrwren | oh, is it called htat because the reservoir is there? | 17:37 |
| DrDaemonEye | Not sure | 17:37 |
| DrDaemonEye | But, I am right next to the reservoir. | 17:37 |
| jrwren | cool. | 17:37 |
| jrwren | its nice up there. | 17:38 |
| jrwren | when we were house shopping there was this awesome place for sale, but we couldn't quite afford it. | 17:38 |
| DrDaemonEye | yeah... found two rooms in a house for $500/month, all utilities included | 17:38 |
| jrwren | WOW! that is a crazy good deal for AA | 17:40 |
| DrDaemonEye | yeah... got it through the UMHS Homeshare program | 17:40 |
| jrwren | you work for UMHS? | 17:42 |
| DrDaemonEye | I don't actually. | 17:49 |
| cmaloney | lost cement truck is doing wonders from my UPS radar | 17:57 |
| jrwren | cmaloney: hahahaha | 18:09 |
| jcastro | rick_h_: I ordered the new Moto G | 18:32 |
| cmaloney | jcastro: sweet | 19:17 |
| rick_h_ | jcastro: cool, I looked at that for my wife but even that one is 4.7" now | 19:23 |
| rick_h_ | wtf happened to 4" phones? | 19:23 |
| brousch | puny | 19:24 |
| jrwren | I think its worse in iphone land :( | 19:25 |
| jcastro | rick_h_: yeah, normal phones are basically dead | 19:27 |
| jcastro | it's all phablets now. :-/ | 19:27 |
| rick_h_ | jcastro: :( | 19:27 |
| rick_h_ | jcastro: I really want to get the new motox but damn I don't want anything that big | 19:27 |
| rick_h_ | going to this one was :/ | 19:27 |
| rick_h_ | my poor wife has nothing she likes. Even the sony mini one is like 4.5"? | 19:28 |
| jcastro | I'm pretty much over phones | 19:29 |
| jcastro | just going to spend the least I can from now on | 19:29 |
| rick_h_ | heh, I filled up 32gb on mine :/ I use it too much. | 19:30 |
| rick_h_ | though now that I have my n9 fixed I do use it a lot, but my phone is just always on me | 19:30 |
| jrwren | i'm still hoping for iphone7 in a 4S or 5 form factor | 19:36 |
| jrwren | and if I don't get that, well then eff it, I'll go 6+ :p | 19:36 |
| cscheib | jrwren / n0p / jcastro : gotta go to southfield instead :-/ | 19:52 |
| cscheib | try again next week | 19:52 |
| brousch | Can't you guys force a small ubuntu touch phone? | 19:53 |
| jrwren | cscheib: bummer! | 19:53 |
| jrwren | brousch: hahahahaha. NO! | 19:53 |
| jrwren | brousch: and, the ubuntu phones are small. They are the 4" size IIRC | 19:53 |
| brousch | Well what good is knowing all of these Canonical people if they have no power?! | 19:54 |
| brousch | Firefox phones are small, and cheap | 19:54 |
| jrwren | brousch: i sometimes ask myself, what good is working for Canonical if I have no power. :) | 19:55 |
| brousch | Well there's always the money | 19:58 |
| jrwren | brousch: bah, I can get that stuff anywhere :) | 20:03 |
| rick_h_ | we have some power, just not in the places most folks want us to :P | 20:35 |
| dzho | seems to me in the handheld space, everyone has been swinging for the bleachers of phones, instead of trying to get some solid baseruns with non-cell tablets. | 23:41 |
| dzho | if I could buy a just-turn-off-the-gps-and-rms-might-even-use-it free tablet that could be great. | 23:42 |
| dzho | there are RFY wifi routes, so it would be off to the races for all the other work that would need to be done on these. | 23:43 |
| dzho | s/routes/routers/ | 23:43 |
