| 14:55.25 | vagarwal | happy mondays!!! |
| 14:55.30 | vagarwal | how is everyone? |
| 14:56.01 | yaMatt | afternoon |
| 14:56.07 | yaMatt | not bad, going for drinks later so pretty happy |
| 14:57.22 | vagarwal | yaMatt: jeremy corbyn wants to ban afterwork drinks |
| 14:57.55 | vagarwal | he is my favorite politican at the moment after boris |
| 14:58.00 | yaMatt | even with my wife? |
| 14:58.20 | yaMatt | :P |
| 14:58.25 | vagarwal | haha |
| 14:59.09 | vagarwal | oh btw - saw this discusson on rm's ml about starting linux meetups on monday evenings |
| 14:59.19 | yaMatt | I read his thing about afterwork drinks, I do agree, but it's a moralistic choice |
| 14:59.24 | vagarwal | first one is proposed on 12 sep |
| 14:59.44 | yaMatt | with my muslim colleagues I try to arrange work events without drinks |
| 14:59.59 | vagarwal | you can always grab a soft drink |
| 15:00.20 | yaMatt | true, but going to restaurants is better than going to pubs and bars |
| 15:00.42 | wethrin | pubs can have food, and it gives you a flexible time to be there and leave |
| 15:00.51 | yaMatt | I saw the 12th, I'm in their IRC, I hope to make it, I'm going to scope out 2 other London Linux groups this month |
| 15:01.00 | wethrin | with a restaurant, you're limited to fairly fixed times |
| 15:01.02 | vagarwal | oh they got irc? |
| 15:01.17 | yaMatt | wethrin, true, but I often hear my friends are not comfortable in pubs |
| 15:01.32 | yaMatt | vagarwal, #rml |
| 15:01.53 | vagarwal | joining n |
| 15:03.13 | yaMatt | fixed times can also work well for those who have children |
| 15:03.26 | yaMatt | but everyone has their own requirements so you just have to mix it up |
| 15:03.50 | yaMatt | not going to the same place, drinking the same stuff, eating the same thing |
| 15:05.21 | *** join/#gllug Leeds (~Leeds@42-3-157-207.static.netvigator.com) |
| 15:06.29 | yaMatt | one thing people forget is that while for events pizza is a dead easy thing to put on, for wheat/glutin intolerance or lactose intolerance you've already screwed a bunch of people over |
| 15:10.16 | Leeds | they're also very often not very veggie-friendly - even if you ignore the question of whether cheese counts as veggie |
| 15:10.46 | Leeds | jumps into random conversation |
| 15:13.05 | wethrin | Some cheese counts as veggie |
| 15:13.08 | murb | ducks |
| 15:13.21 | murb | Leeds: it is just a proccess :p |
| 15:13.36 | wethrin | Duck is definitely not a veggie meal |
| 15:13.54 | murb | would you like some caviar? |
| 15:14.03 | murb | so even though it mostly means the donars are sliced open... |
| 15:14.13 | murb | technically vegitarian |
| 15:14.34 | murb | yet cheese made with the wrong kind of rennet isn't? |
| 15:16.20 | vagarwal | dont mix up vegan and vegetarian |
| 15:16.27 | vagarwal | i used to be a vegan - hard life to live |
| 15:17.45 | murb | i'm not. |
| 15:17.46 | vagarwal | Leeds: how is greater soviet london? |
| 15:17.56 | vagarwal | oh wait, that was ChoHag |
| 15:18.01 | vagarwal | Leeds: how is HK? |
| 15:18.17 | vagarwal | murb: how is north england (if i got that right)? |
| 15:18.27 | murb | vagarwal: nope, north of bavaria. |
| 15:18.52 | vagarwal | murb: nice - i am all set for oktoberfest |
| 15:19.11 | murb | booo, that time of the year when flights out of here get expensive :( |
| 15:19.29 | vagarwal | i got the flights booked last month |
| 15:19.37 | Leeds | will be in Munich for a half-day next month |
| 15:19.59 | vagarwal | my mrs is a researcher in heidelberg |
| 15:20.22 | murb | i may be flying from MUC to MAN later this week. |
| 15:20.37 | murb | really not decided yet. |
| 15:20.41 | yaMatt | planning my FOSDEM trip, coming? |
| 15:20.50 | yaMatt | Leeds, is it around new year? |
| 15:20.57 | vagarwal | yaMatt: i already booked ticekts for fosdem |
| 15:20.58 | yaMatt | 5-6th Feb |
| 15:21.02 | yaMatt | cool :) |
| 15:21.10 | yaMatt | I need to sort everything out |
| 15:21.10 | murb | i doubt i'll go to fosdem. |
| 15:21.16 | vagarwal | i off to brussles on thursday night and back on monday evening |
| 15:21.20 | Leeds | doubt very much I'll make it to fosdem this year |
| 15:21.42 | murb | i'm not even going to chaos congress. |
| 15:22.06 | yaMatt | trying to decide if I should leave sunday or monday |
| 15:22.11 | murb | which the cfp has now been published for. |
| 15:22.14 | vagarwal | murb: were you there in the last fosdem? |
| 15:22.16 | yaMatt | sunday is usually pretty quiet, but gives me a day to recover on monday |
| 15:22.24 | wethrin | yaMatt: Monday morning. Belgium is generally closed on Mondays |
| 15:22.31 | murb | https://events.ccc.de/2016/09/01/call-for-participation-33rd-chaos-communication-congress-en/ |
| 15:22.43 | yaMatt | but leaving on Sunday is usually a bit of a panic |
| 15:23.07 | murb | wethrin: so is copenhagen, as Leeds and i found out. |
| 15:23.53 | yaMatt | I would love to go to CCC but the date is deliberately there so that only super keen people can go and I'm just not that keen |
| 15:24.10 | Leeds | I'm rather more Asian nowadays - just had a nice week in Tokyo, which doesn't close on Mondays :) |
| 15:24.22 | yaMatt | Asia is fantastic for that |
| 15:24.25 | yaMatt | nothing closes, I love it |
| 15:24.36 | yaMatt | most stuff is open til 10pm |
| 15:24.42 | wethrin | What's the CCC date? |
| 15:24.48 | yaMatt | just after christmas |
| 15:24.52 | wethrin | ah |
| 15:24.58 | Leeds | lots of stuff around where we were which was open until 2500 or later |
| 15:25.05 | yaMatt | 27th to 30th Dec |
| 15:37.44 | vagarwal | yaMatt: have you attented config management camp? |
| 15:39.44 | yaMatt | I have not, I have looked at it before though |
| 15:39.52 | yaMatt | I'd love to do an Ansible one |
| 15:40.50 | vagarwal | i think it is vantosh who organizes it |
