|---|---|---|
| rick_h_ | morning | 10:55 |
| cmaloney | Good morning | 12:09 |
| cmaloney | brousch: There's an AIY kit winging its way to you | 12:09 |
| cmaloney | Courtesy of waldo323 and I | 12:09 |
| brousch | I don't care what everyone says, you East-siders aren't so bad | 12:22 |
| rick_h_ | hmmm, maybe. I'm not so sure :P | 12:23 |
| brousch | OK, so if I put together a Sunday Microcenter Day Trip with a few fellow makers, what would you suggest as another stop? | 12:36 |
| rick_h_ | cmaloney's house | 12:37 |
| rick_h_ | he'll provide beverages in the back yard and extension cords to power purchases :P | 12:38 |
| cmaloney | You might be able to arrange a trip to i3 if you contact them first | 12:38 |
| cmaloney | i3 is the makerspace out here | 12:39 |
| cmaloney | There's also several pizza places in the area if you want Detroit-style pizza | 12:41 |
| cmaloney | If you have any games there's GOBREtail on 14 and Rochester road (just east of it) | 12:42 |
| cmaloney | east of 14 that is | 12:42 |
| brousch | The 2 people I think most likely to go aren't gamers and aren't drinkers. i3 is good idea | 12:58 |
| waldo323 | wile not necessarily something for all makers, if you have any camping/hiking/outdoor sport needs a trip to one of the 2 REI stores could be a good place to visit | 13:32 |
| jrwren | is there REI over there now? I thought Ann Arbor was the only one. | 13:37 |
| rick_h_ | there's been one at 16mi for years | 13:37 |
| jrwren | cool. | 13:38 |
| cmaloney | Yeah, it's still there last I checked | 13:47 |
| cmaloney | https://bridge.joinmastodon.org/ | 14:07 |
| waldo323 | Northville (6 mile and haggerty) has one and it has been there since at least 1999/2000 | 14:12 |
| waldo323 | oi so I guess there are 3 stores | 14:12 |
| jrwren | oh yeah! i forgot about that one. | 14:12 |
| jrwren | that has been there for a LONG time. | 14:13 |
| jrwren | i'm blinded by Ann Arbor. | 14:13 |
| waldo323 | when we moved from grand rapids to the detroit area my dad was pretty excited about the one in northville as there weren't any in grand rapids | 14:13 |
| rick_h_ | yea, and that northville one seems to have more stuff in stock than the troy one | 14:21 |
| cmaloney | The Troy one seems like an after-thought at times. ;) | 14:42 |
| cmaloney | not that I go to REI much, but it seems like it | 14:43 |
| jrwren | man, I bet REI corporate would LOVE to hear this conversation. | 14:45 |
| jrwren | why does it feel like an afterthought? | 14:45 |
| rick_h_ | heh, I hit up the troy one all the time since it's easiest for me to get to | 14:46 |
| * rick_h_ is a long time member and look forward to rewards season | 14:46 | |
| cmaloney | jrwren: Could just be me projecting. | 14:49 |
| cmaloney | I'm not exactly the most active egg in the carton | 14:49 |
| rick_h_ | active egg? /me wonders | 14:49 |
| cmaloney | http://americanhistory.si.edu/collections/search/object/nmah_1253155 <- active egg | 14:50 |
| rick_h_ | oh wow, would not have made that connection | 14:50 |

| DrDaemonEye | Well, I am getting laid off at the end of the month | 19:51 |
| cmaloney | Yay | 19:55 |
| cmaloney | I mean boo | 19:55 |

| DrDaemonEye | yep | 19:55 |
| cmaloney | Hoping hte search is short and fruitful | 20:05 |
| cmaloney | LMK if I can help it, even if it's someone to commiserate with | 20:05 |

| cmaloney | np | 20:08 |
| waldo323 | what type of position will you be looking for? and what location? | 20:09 |
