[01:33] pleia2: we were going to have two parties but I don't think the sponsorship worked out. [01:34] nhaines: pay your own way dinner at denny's? ;) [01:34] I don't know what's going on Thursday (but there should be something) but I think on Wednesday, Canonical's plan is to just get drunk at the hotel bar. :) If the hotel bothers answering their emails, that is. [01:34] haha [01:35] well, after my dinner maybe I'll come by then [01:35] \o/ [01:35] We should have final details Wednesday and then I'll do separate Meetup events for them. :) [01:35] cool, I plan on being on the call that day too [01:36] mostly to complain :) [01:36] Haha! [01:36] I mean, "express some concerns" [01:36] nothing big, just forwarding along some passive aggressive grumping [01:36] Every bit helps. [18:31] Is the UpSCALE CFP closed? I occasionally see references to it, but there doesn't seem to be a link on the website or sent in email. [19:53] akk: last email I saw from the scale crew was on 12/22 and they said "There is still room for an UpSCALE Talk or two" [19:53] "Those interested in [19:53] submitting an UpSCALE Talk can submit through the SCALE CFP system – [19:53] https://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale/14x/cfp – and mark your talk with the UpSCALE tag." [19:53] so, maybe :) [19:53] they also hang out in #scale [21:32] Oh, I thought they were on another IRC network. :) [23:01] It's raining! [23:01] It's been pouring since about 3am. [23:02] the sun finally came out here [23:02] probably means I should go take a walk after work instead of hibernating [23:10] It was snowing a little an hour ago, but now there's some blue sky. [23:16] nhaines: a friend of mine helped mary jo pehl with a book and she invited him as a guest to a rifftrax thing on thursday (I already had tickets), I'm going to see about inviting myself along with him [23:17] because meeting her would be aweeeeesome [23:18] Ooh, that would be awesome! [23:19] I got a $10 gift certificate from Rifftrax so I bought the MST3K episode "The Pumaman". It was awful. :D [23:19] one of my favorites [23:19] I ran an mst3k fan site a long time ago [23:20] I first saw it when on vacation as a teen. It was great! [23:20] and actually, it was mst3k that first got me to join an irc channel [23:20] so, it's really all their fault I'm here [23:21] haha [23:32] Did anybody ever find about about whether speakers need to register? [23:38] I'll find out tomorrow.
