01:02.38 | fugue88 | off to dinner |
01:22.54 | fugue88 | back for a little while |
02:08.38 | look | i had some stir-fry tonight |
02:08.43 | look | delicious |
02:15.27 | herlo | fugue88: ping again... |
02:15.52 | herlo | re: Westminster emails |
02:16.22 | fugue88 | herlo: Yo. |
02:16.31 | fugue88 | What do you think of them? |
02:17.30 | fugue88 | Sidenote: The Utah Senate passed HB150 (subpeonaless ISP searches). It's ready for the Gov. to sign. |
02:17.35 | herlo | fugue88: hi |
02:17.50 | herlo | fugue88: I sure hope he vetos it |
02:18.50 | herlo | fugue88: I think it sounds pretty promising, but I'm curious about costs... |
02:19.08 | herlo | fugue88: I'd love to setup a meeting and see the venues... |
02:19.50 | fugue88 | I could give you a tour of Westminster. It's just 2 blocks from my place. |
02:20.06 | fugue88 | Or we could have the Westminster people give us a tour... |
02:20.10 | herlo | no, I want a tour of the rooms and such so we know *exactly* what we'd be getting... |
02:23.58 | fugue88 | Well, the 8 rooms, it sounds, are pretty wide open. |
02:24.10 | fugue88 | The best rooms would be in the business school. |
02:24.26 | fugue88 | Unless the new science building is finished by then, but I don't know what it will be like. |
02:24.30 | fugue88 | Let me get a map. |
02:24.31 | herlo | we probably won't use 8 rooms. Have you seen the scheudle I drafted in the dropbox? |
02:24.31 | fugue88 | ... |
02:24.40 | fugue88 | Nope. |
02:24.51 | herlo | do they have a show floor or somewhere where people can put up booths? |
02:25.16 | fugue88 | Yesish. Let me read where they said... |
02:26.14 | fugue88 | Tanner Atrium. Okay, one minute... |
02:28.07 | herlo | got pics? |
02:28.12 | herlo | or we can do a tour and get pics |
02:30.35 | fugue88 | Where's a good image pastebin? |
02:30.46 | herlo | uhhhh.... |
02:30.54 | herlo | posterous? |
02:31.10 | fugue88 | Okay. I'm new at this... |
02:32.09 | herlo | me2 |
02:32.29 | fugue88 | http://imagebin.ca/view/ujbd5yy.html |
02:32.35 | fugue88 | Decided against posterous. |
02:33.03 | herlo | nw |
02:33.06 | fugue88 | So here's the thing. The nice class rooms are quite removed from the atrium and auditorium. |
02:33.26 | fugue88 | If we could get the new science bldg, things would be much better. |
02:33.51 | fugue88 | Oops. The two dots north of the science bldg are the two offices in Foster. |
02:34.17 | fugue88 | I has hoping for the gym for the open floor. |
02:34.44 | fugue88 | The atrium I *think* is about the same size as what we had at SLCC, though, but it's in a different shape which may or may not be less usable. |
02:35.11 | fugue88 | The auditorium is nice, with good acoustics. |
02:35.29 | fugue88 | But I don't recall having platforms in there to record on camera. |
02:35.44 | fugue88 | There's a sound booth at the back. I don't know if that would work. |
02:37.37 | herlo | maybe |
02:37.46 | herlo | but I'm really interested in seeing it... |
02:37.59 | herlo | I've already got a bid from SLCC for the MFEC too... |
02:39.31 | fugue88 | What are their bids like? |
02:40.08 | herlo | about 8k before discount using 5 main rooms. I've not asked about the smaller offices yet, but I suspect there will be room |
02:40.35 | peno | what is parking like at westminster these days? |
02:41.23 | herlo | peno: the weekend they are suggesting there is no school, so we'd pretty much have the entire parking lots |
02:41.47 | peno | that's probably good, from what I remember their lots were smallish. |
02:41.48 | fugue88 | And there's plenty of it with the students mostly gone. |
02:41.51 | herlo | fugue88: oh, and that includes the show floor too... |
02:41.57 | fugue88 | They've added a lot recently. |
02:42.07 | fugue88 | Pics of the atrium and auditorium: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.westminstercollege.edu/images/conference_services/tanner-atrium.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.westminstercollege.edu/conference_services/index.cfm%3Fparent%3D1119%26detail%3D1126%26content%3D5912&usg=__BB-Zj9coxQ5IK0o-KoHhK_t7Wfk=&h=300&w=400&sz=24&hl=en&start=2&um=1&itbs=1&tbnid=QZ5lys_RpMBORM:&tbnh=93&tbnw=124&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dwestminster%2Butah%2Batrium%26um%3D1%26h |
02:42.15 | peno | tinyurl! |
02:42.16 | herlo | beats fugue88 |
02:42.20 | fugue88 | http://www.westminstercollege.edu/conference_services/index.cfm?parent=1119&detail=1126&content=5912 |
02:42.25 | herlo | concurs with peno on this one |
02:42.31 | herlo | it's a rarity, I know |
02:42.41 | fugue88 | shocked |
02:42.44 | herlo | :) |
02:42.44 | peno | satan is skating to work tomorrow |
02:44.13 | peno | wifi would be another key element at westminster |
02:44.22 | herlo | fugue88: those could work |
02:45.02 | herlo | peno: I wonder if SLCC is going to budge on their rules with wifi this time... kind of doubt it :( |
02:45.11 | peno | I doubt it |
02:45.18 | herlo | yeah |
02:45.25 | peno | what we can do, is ask them up front to plan for more AP's |
02:46.08 | herlo | yeah, and to turn off the *attacking* APs |
02:46.24 | peno | the biggest problem is that nearly everyone under the sun is using both a laptop & smartphone |
02:46.28 | peno | overloading their network |
02:46.40 | herlo | peno: is being at work awesome? |
02:46.49 | peno | turning that feature off might require VP approval |
02:46.53 | herlo | peno: for sure... |
02:47.05 | peno | yeah, our phone vendor is upgrading our phone switch tonight |
02:47.07 | herlo | VP of the school? |
02:47.15 | herlo | peno: awesome! |
02:47.17 | peno | or IT department |
02:47.29 | herlo | yeah, school is smaller than college |
02:47.30 | peno | it's not awesome, it's breaking on the upgrade |
02:47.43 | herlo | oops |
02:47.51 | peno | good thing I'm not doing it! |
02:47.54 | peno | shifts the blame |
02:48.36 | herlo | yeah... |
02:49.42 | herlo | fugue88: cool stuff though |
02:49.51 | herlo | I'm looking forward to meeting with them... |
02:50.07 | fugue88 | If you want to set up a tour, I'll try to be there too. |
02:50.23 | fugue88 | What would you want? midday on a weekday? |
02:52.00 | fugue88 | I could do that time if it's next week. |
02:53.11 | herlo | sure, that sounds fine. Probably after Tuesday |
02:55.01 | herlo | heads to the video store to rent a movie |

17:20.26 | Bubba_Washington | Hey everyone |
17:24.42 | herlo | Bubba_Washington: hi |
17:24.57 | Bubba_Washington | What's going on? |
17:26.44 | herlo | we're working on securing a venue for UTOSC, you? |
17:27.09 | herlo | Bubba_Washington: did you wanna help us this year with getting things done? We're starting to define our Volunteer Member program and should have some details out soon... |
17:27.34 | Bubba_Washington | Not much, just trying to piece together some computers. |
17:27.48 | Bubba_Washington | Sure I'd like to help. |
17:31.14 | herlo | cool, I'll get you in the loop asap. We have a lot of tasks that need to be done, simple stuff that can be done in 1-2 hours time. We just need to detail them...so keep an eye out :) |
17:31.40 | Bubba_Washington | Ok, sounds good |
17:32.13 | Bubba_Washington | Have you ever thought of doing a UTOS podcast or something? |
17:32.30 | herlo | Bubba_Washington: I have |
17:32.39 | herlo | Bubba_Washington: but I never can think of what to talk about... |
17:32.46 | Bubba_Washington | I've been thinking it might be a good way to highlight some of the great things that are going on in the UT Tech scene. |
17:32.50 | herlo | but maybe I should just start doing that before/after LUG meetings |
17:33.42 | Bubba_Washington | Is it hard to put one together? |
17:34.11 | herlo | a podcast? |
17:34.14 | herlo | or the people? |
17:34.24 | herlo | I think it's just a bit of work. BRB |
17:34.30 | Bubba_Washington | The peple. |
17:59.41 | influx | The peple? |
17:59.49 | herlo | the peple, yeah |
18:00.04 | herlo | influx: Bubba_Washington probably had fun speling that :) |
18:00.09 | Bubba_Washington | You know the ones that aren't human. |
18:00.17 | herlo | yathose |
18:01.30 | influx | o |
18:01.58 | Bubba_Washington | herlo: So is getting the right people together to do a podcast the real problem? |
18:02.51 | herlo | well, just a consistency issue probably |
18:05.33 | Bubba_Washington | Maybe if you did a monthly one it wouldn't be as hard. |
18:06.05 | herlo | Bubba_Washington: maybe |
18:06.24 | Bubba_Washington | Well, let's try it out. |
18:06.27 | herlo | Bubba_Washington: I am thinking that since BetaLoft is closing at the end of the month and I need to find a new location for our Daytime LUG, that might be when to do it... |
18:06.47 | herlo | Bubba_Washington: we could do it for 15 minutes before each Daytime Meeting, thoughts? |
18:06.56 | Bubba_Washington | What's going on with BetaLoft? |
18:07.06 | herlo | closing their doors at the end of the month, all I know |
18:07.24 | herlo | emailed Drew and asked what's going on, haven't heard back |
18:07.27 | Bubba_Washington | How long were they open for? |
18:07.37 | herlo | nearly a year iirc |
18:07.41 | herlo | at least 8 months |
18:07.59 | Bubba_Washington | Wow! |
18:08.05 | herlo | yeah...not sure what's up |
18:08.34 | Bubba_Washington | I thought they had an interesting concept, but I didn't think they would make that much money doing it. |
18:08.58 | Bubba_Washington | Kind of hard to justify going somewhere to work, if you can still work out of your house. |
18:09.32 | herlo | I disagree |
18:09.45 | herlo | there are many distractions at working out of your home, even if you live alone |
18:10.01 | herlo | plus, nobody to chat with over the water cooler, throw ideas around, etc... |
18:10.16 | Bubba_Washington | Yeah, that's ture. |
18:10.16 | influx | It's nice to have a space specifically for work. |
18:10.28 | influx | Where your mindset within that space is specifically geared for work and work only. |
18:10.30 | herlo | the real question is, what is it worth? |
18:10.39 | influx | It's difficult to have a work mindset at home. |
18:10.49 | herlo | $350 - $550 were his prices for a secure spot at BetaLoft... |
18:10.55 | herlo | which isn't too bad... |
18:11.03 | Bubba_Washington | Is that per month? |
18:11.10 | herlo | yup |
18:12.41 | Bubba_Washington | Any ideas for a new location? |
18:13.24 | herlo | not yet |
18:13.29 | herlo | but I have some irons in the fire |
18:13.38 | herlo | something will help us land on our feet |
